It's been a long time since I did any proper updates, so a revamp of my website is in order. This is going to take a few weeks (at least) to sort out properly though, so everything is in a state of flux for now except for the gallery, which remains untouched ( Read more... )

First post on here in an age, but can't be bothered with multiple tweets or status updates ( Read more... )

I am getting increasingly sick of the blackmail and propaganda that's being used to try and force this charge on us. The latest comments from Geoff Hoon that "...there is no Plan B" are disgusting.
