Hello good people. Watcha the bad.
- Blog that's new to me: Rising C level.
- Making a copy is not stealing. At least that's what it says at I would not steal.
- Great blog post - BNP supporters come in two flavours scum and idiots.
- At least someone is ashamed of Berlusconi.
- 15 creepiest ads of all time. Shudder....
- That previous link was brought to you by the ever excellent Dogwood's Sunday links.
- Have you been watching one and other - the live feed from the plinth? Compelling, although the participants keep using their mobiles. Turn them off people!
- Want UK citizenship? Could you pass the test? I fail with 46%... who wants to be British anyway?
- Talking of citizens - have you seen Hackney Citizen? Excellent stuff.
- This week you could read me in the Morning Star on Afghanistan. I should be in this Tuesday too.

Thanks for the nod, Jim! I wonder how the ads of today will look in fifty years time, particularly those ones with kids on the loo demanding special air fresheners before they have a poo.
Hi Jim. As an ex-politics teacher I couldn't help myself and took the citizenship TEST. I too failed but with 63%, 15 out of 24 correct.
Reviewing the correct answers there were a number where I just guessed and got them right so I think my score should have been lower really.
It's surely going to be a rather strange anorak who passes this test.

I took that test a few days ago, I hardly covered my self in honour. My disappointment at failing was only matched by my rage at the idiocy of the questions.
I saw James Graham's post a while ago, you might be interested in my take on it too. I foolishly tried to take on two trolls on in his comments and found that one actually was scum and the other was an idiot. Neither would pass that test, but then who would?
I only got 42% in the test, and I thought I'd know that kind of thing!
Of course, I passed the test in real life. (I think I got 100% in about 4 minutes) but I totally screwed up the web version... At least you didn't have to pay to find out, like I did...
