The best blog entry ever

After a day watching News 24 padding out with hours and hours of Blair it was refreshing to read this post from Arsembly. Sometimes there just isn't anything to say. News 24 and Sky News would do well to take note.

Burying bad news

There is a remarkable amount of burying of bad news happening today, and not all on the part of the Government.
Having said that the opposition are right to try and highlight how details of the soaring cost of ID cards have been pushed out today.
But the Home Office is not alone in this shenanigans. Not to be outdone The Department for Work and Pensions chose today to announce the closure of three offices and the loss of 380 jobs.
I'm sure its purely a coincidence too that Barclays also decide that today would be good to announce the loss of more than 1,000 jobs in Britain.

Prepare to be dazzled

Word reaches VFTN from friends in the media that many newspapers are not going to wait for the formal announcement tomorrow and instead are going to subject their readers to acre upon acre of "Blair years" stuff with their cornflakes tomorrow. Let's hope for their sake that the speculation from Guido last week doesn't turn out to be true.
