I have spent my writing time today (read in the morning, write in the afternoon ... or lose all that reading to sieve brain) being fretful about the structure of my upcoming confirmation seminar paper and trying to collect my thoughts on the CSR into some sort of vaguely coherent blog post. 

So let's be quick about these links then.  Chop chop.

Marina Hyde on why Boris Johnson is Britain's answer to Sarah Palin.  Oh yes she did. 

Popping about twitter: Michael Gove wants to ban BNP members from teaching.  (I hate to be logical in the face of a swipe at that lot, but surely the workaround would just be to be a rapid supporter, but not to join?  A lot harder to police support than membership.)

Oooh!  BBC slideshow of then and now pictures of high streets.  Neat, would be the technical term. 

And goodnight!
