icm poll good for lib dems

ICM POLLL, Very good for Liberal Democrats.

Conservatives 37 (-6)
Labour 31 (-4)
Liberal Democrats 21/23 (+6/8)

This is excellent news for the Lib Dems. Moreover, I feel that this increasse in poll ratings is due to not only the leadership race but in particular the very convincing and humerous performances from Vince Cable Acting Leader. I think it is a good thing however that he is not standing because it just proves how much depth the Liberal Democrats actually have.

Any Views???

Miss Gibbons is back

Teacher Gibbons gets released. This is a good thing and it is something that the british government have done and achieved. Proving that cooperating with countries is the right thing to do.

Muhammed the teddy bear- so offensive???

It is an absolute discrace what is going on in Sudan at the moment. The poor Mrs Gibbons only wanted to help and give her help to a poor comunity. I am appauled by the treatment she has recieved for allowing her class of pupils to call the class teddy bear, yes teddy bear muhammed. It does actually show how culture is so different in parts of the world. However it is certainly an OTT reaction by the Sudanese authorities. It really shows how far some countries are behind in their democracies, lets hope that the peers from parliament can come to an agreement on their visit.

A 'Green' Peace deal

Global businesses have called for a legally binding and comprehensive international deal on climate change.

A binding agreement on emissions reductions would encourage business to invest in low-carbon technologies, a statement from 150 businesses said.

The statement - backed by Prince Charles - will be sent to environment ministers and heads of state ahead of talks in Bali on climate change.

Nokia, Tesco, Lloyds TSB and Nike are among the 150 firms that made the call.
The signatories represent companies from Europe, the US, China and Australia.

Story from BBC- good to see big companies show some interest in climate change. Dont really know how Tescos can do this when they thrive off everybody driving to there mega supermarkets burning off who knows how much fuel in the process. Also taking smalls shops out of business when they are monopolising the supermarket 'market'.
