25-06-2003 12:49
I looked at the seat in the cockpit in the streamlined white Tornado warplane, which I had just entered. In my mind I had the picture of a young pilot, boy, son, father; the many years of fear for the people of Iraq; for their survival; for a new world war nuclear war; fear of losing the little bit of freedom we people have left in this world, to a state which has officially declared that it wants "Full Spectrum Dominance" on earth as well as in space and which has shown all willingness and cynicism to use whatever means of power to gain this. All this made me lift the red and black bolt-cutters in my hand. Crash! I shouted out aloud in the hangar. There was no-one to hear, but it helped. "We don't want your war, Bush and Blair!" This for all the dead civilians in Iraq and all the children still suffering at poor hospitals, caused by 12 years of sanctions against civilians. Crash! The control panel was out of commission.Patten dons Oxford Chancellor robes and misses an EU-US summit

Chris Patten was in Oxford today, attending the ceremony which saw him sworn in as chancellor of Oxford University. Quite an important event apparently, because it meant he had to miss an EU-US summit in Washington, swopping his guise as External Relations Commissioner of the EU for some traditional Oxford robes, gown and a service partly in Latin.GM Crops and Poverty
25-06-2003 10:46
The widespread adoption of GM crops seems likely to exacerbate the underlying causes of food insecurity, leading to more hungry people, not fewer. To have a lasting impact on poverty, ActionAid believes policy makers must address the real constraints facing poor communities - lack of access to land, credit, resources and markets instead of focusing on risky technologies that have no track record in addressing hunger.BRISTOL-STOP-THE-WAR NEWS : 25th June 2003

25-06-2003 02:30
When I picture a high-ranking government official, I think of someone who is corrupt. I think of a corporate shill. I think of someone who is nota friend to the people of this country. I think of Lord Acton’s famous line about power corrupting, and absolute power corrupting absolutely. I
think of the disdain with which so many Americans have viewed so many of their leaders for so many years.

New car park in Crookes Valley Park
24-06-2003 20:49
We believe that, if this encroachment on the park is allowed to proceed, it will damage an attractive, tranquil and historic landscape, will destroy wildlife habitats in an inner city “green finger”, will create new risks for park users and will have a detrimental impact on nearby residents’ quality of life. In our view, these several costs far outweigh the likely benefits to be derived from the development.
