Words Dept.: entry

A selection of my latest bookmarks. You could visit my Tumblelog for more stuff I’ve seen on the web.

• The Marple Leaf: Silver linings on dark clouds “There is light at the end of this dark tunnel. These people [the BNP] are nutters. They will now have to face the same level of scrutiny as other politicians for the decisions they make and the examples they set. Not just the things they have said.”
• Living with Rats: Living with a cancer – “Democracy won’t be renewed in the pages of the Guardian or through Facebook groups. These might help, but they won’t influence those who don’t read the Guardian, don’t use Facebook and don’t think – to use the BNP’s catchphrase – politics has any space for ‘people like you’.”
• The Daily Mash: THIS IS HOW THE NAZIS STARTED, SAYS EVERYONE – “As the British National Party achieved its first success in a UK-wide election, amateur historians said they would be amazed if this time next year people like you were not in some sort of camp.”
• Telegraph: Tetris turns 25 – Images from the history of Tetris
• Guardian: No new stadium. A huge debt. Despite their promises, Hicks and Gillett have ‘done a Glazers’ - Excellent piece by David Conn about Liverpool’s problems
