    UK facing doom

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/8313672.stm

    I'm really scared now Brown has said it.

    Will he save the World yet again?

    With any luck, Brown and his cronies will get swept away by a Tsunami
    'Orwell's 1984 was supposed to be a warning, not an instruction manual'. -
    Nick Pickles, director of Big Brother Watch.

            In Glasgow that means two dry days a year instead of one.

              He told the Major Economies Forum in London, which brings together 17 of the world's biggest greenhouse gas-emitting countries, there was "no plan B".
              So what's he going to do after the next election then?
