Snippets - all sorts........

I'm sick, scared and want a new trial........
Uh huh - words that describe Paul Gadd (Gary Glitter) are definitely that he is a sick man! Apparently he is scared for his safety - good!
My heart is not exactly bleeding here - can ya tell yet?!
Scared?? So scared he was all smiles and completely relaxed and more than capable of giving officials the runaround.
Innocent? Uh huh! More like wants a new trial so that he will gain internet access and be allowed to travel abroad for more than 3 days at a time.
I hope he stays scared!
Oh and don't worry Paul ...... you're not paranoid...... they really are watching you!!!

Distancing the government after data loss........
Ok - in case everyone is losing track here - this would the the data loss concerning prisoners. Jacqui Smith is doing her best to shift blame - but when the government are prepared to pay more than £240 million to a firm to handle such sensitive data - then they can try and distance themselves all they like but that dog just don't bark no more. There have been too many mistakes with data. Hell I could have encrypted the data for them for way less that they paid!
Oh - the kicker - the same firm has been paid millions for their consultancy in the ID cards scheme - yep - feel safer already!!!!
