Tonight's 10 O'Clock news has served as a reminder of what we are up against. Colin Powell as first item followed by Al-Qaeda nasties in Britain the next. We'll get it right up till the 15 February and the point is staying strong in the face of attacks from the likes of the pro-war Observer, Toynbee et al in the Guardian and the unreconstructed fascists in the Mail and the Express. We've witnessed a heavy-handed and disgraceful raid on a north london mosque, an MI5-inspired story about a ricin find (later proved to be insignificant by every expert in the field)and scare stories regarding the mortal dangers presented to the grass in Hyde Park (all of equal importance) in recent weeks. Tomorrow Blair is to be quizzed by Paxman in a desperate attempt by Blair's gatekeepers to show him to be a fairly average kind of guy defending us against an imminent nuclear strike from Bad-gad. Let's not fall for a word of it. Those who put him in power are the Brits and the US, those who armed him to the teeth are the same and those who are ready to murder at least 200,000 innocent Iraqis are...you guessed it. There are those who would like to break us but before they try I suggest they meet us at Hyde Park, Piccadily Circus or anywhere along the way so that they realise that all their misinformation, prejudice and propaganda will be strongly resisted. Blair: You touch Iraq and we'll make sure that we bring you in front of the Hague War Crimes Tribunal. Stay strong, don't buckle and remember to treat the grass in Hyde Park well. It'll grow back, those slaughtered by US/UK bombing won't. F15 is for them.
