Football: Premier League warns Platini to 'mind his own business' | News | Guardian Unlimited Football
The last paragraph is the most telling aspect of this story. Although it is common sense surely to suggest that a manchester united fan wants to see lads from manchester in the team, and the same for the scousers.
GM food safer than normal food?

I was against this, but i am slowly changing my mind. I am still not totally convinced it is 100% safe yet, but if they can prove that it will be, then i think i will have to come down in favour of allowing GM crops. If we are going to have climate change, and whatever the reasons for it, then it is obviously going to affect food production. And as usual if this happens it will be the worst off that are affected. So if it means allowing GM crops, there would only be one option for me, providing it is proved to be safe of course

PFI as costly as it's critics have pointed out it will end up being

I think the problem here is with new labour not being the natural party of business, but trying to prove that they are without the first hint of knowledge of how it actually works. They have just been took for the suckers that they are, at the taxpayers expense.

ID cards what are they good for, absolutely nothing

Another new labour failiure, managing to build less social housing than the tories under Thatcher managed.

After wanting Blair to quit for all this time, it seems a bit unfair that he is managing to escape any blame for Labours recent travails. I know Northern rock is not really anything to do with him, but this payment scandal is yet another grubby financial scapade that has his tenure written all over it. I didn't watch the Aranovitch interview, but apparently it was a bad as could be expected. For an organisation that got shafted by him, the amount of time the Beeb has given over to him since he left office is quite staggering
