Quotes of the week
"I think it would be a good thing if the bishops had a bit more spiritual and less
political guidance to offer."
(Frances Kissling, Washington Post)
"Islamists are very keen on accusing those who criticise their ultra-reactionary attitudes to women and homosexuals of being reactionaries, and also have a vile habit of calling Israel a Nazi state. So even considering my low opinion of these thugs, my eyes were very much opened by a Radio 4 documentary a while back called Hitler's Muslim Legions, about the tens of thousands of Islamic volunteers for the fascist cause. And Israel — the usual excuse for Islamist evil — didn't even exist then!"
(Julie Burchill, Independent)
Sometimes Childish, Sometimes Puerile, Sometimes full of invective.

Julie Burchill And The Vote for Convicts.
This is pretty much what we all think, isn't it. I hope that this gives Cameron as much frustration as his stance on europe gives the rest of the real world. Anyway, Julie Burchill,
"Europe's democracy means pandering to wife-murderers
No doubt all the forgive-and-forget types (forgive the criminal, forget the victim) are positively salivating at the idea of prisoners being given the vote for the first time in over a century, but I find it deeply creepy. However, thanks to the European Court of Human Rights we may soon find our politicians pandering to the wife-murdering vote. Two women a week are currently being killed by partners and ex-partners, so it's not to be sneezed at.
Not that it will do them much good. I would bet my last nail file in a cake that the majority of violent criminals will go for the raving loony fringe – that is, the BNP and Respect – no matter how low the next Liberal Democrat conference may try to push the age of consent in the hope of picking up that all-important paedophile vote".
Can you disagree with her?
