h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

From http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/7711562.stm

Hazel Blears has attacked internet bloggers for "fuelling disengagement" by the public from politics. Well, she would say that wouldn't she? She probably hates the fact that the breathtaking hypocrisy politicians regularly indulge in is exposed by bloggers.

No doubt we can expect more control freakery from a government that banned demonstrations near Parliament where there was an outside chance they might notice them. Or used the Serious Crimes Act to arrest a woman for reading out the names on the Cenotaph (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/london/4507446.stm)

I can't see how they can stop bloggers though. Unless it's part of a plan to licence public access to the internet and I wouldn't put that past them.

Oh look, Hazel's shooting her mouth off again about something she doesn't understand.

I need to stop voting for her...

Does anyone take that woman seriously any more anyway? She's a total waste of space ;-/

Are you kidding? Her "lets paint all the signs and bins in Salford pink" policy won here widespread acclaim across her constituency!
