smokingbootThings to go and see this weekend:
http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/the-more-appalling-the-human-rights-record-the-better-the-customer-at-londons-arms-fair-today-10500389.html
It's actually not far away, I dare say I could go have a look if I had the right credentials; a history of torture or a despotic regime behind me...
In more cheery news, Cameron gives a top environmental job to an oil industry insider. So that's nice.
I cannot affect these things in any way, except to use my vote, and I begin to wonder about that - after all, if our governments are corrupt in all else, they will be corrupt in this. I don't know what checks and balances there are.
I wish there was something I could do. Honestly I am just a talking head.
