A half dozen points of interest

As you might expect, there's a general election theme...

• What is it with birds at the moment? Green Shan Oakes sees a Robin, Labour's Harpy Marx a Swan and then there's the Lib Dem pidgeon.
  
  
• Talking of lovely pics... here's one from the Barking campaign at facebook.
  
  
• Some Green responses to the Digital Economy Bill. Adrian Ramsay (Norwich South), Natalie Bennett (Holborn and St. Pancras), Darren Johnson (Lewisham Deptford) and Matt Sellwood (Hackney North & Stoke Newington), Caroline Lucas (Brighton Pavillion), Ben Duncan (Brighton Kemptown)
  
  
• Calling all election candidates. Iain Dale points to the LSE's request for your election materials for their archives. Well worth remembering to pop some in the post.
  
  
• Think politics is more than three men in suits bickering with each other? Check out the Fawcett Society's party comparison web pages.
  
  
• Not the election but just as important. Kiana Firouz, an Iranian lesbian fights against her deportation. Please help her if you can.
  

Right, now to get in gear!
