Fascinating. MPACUK, an extremist Muslim group, appears to have been caught red handed in an outright lie:
Could it really be true that the most respectable of UK media organizations, including the Society of Editors and Associated Newspapers, owners of the Daily Mail and the Evening Standard, were sponsoring the web site of MPACUK, an extremist Muslim campaign group run by a tiny and wholly unrepresentative group of radical activists? MPACUK, with its well documented track record of publishing anti-semitic propaganda with images taken from neo-Nazi web sites? The logo is that of the Journalism Diversity Fund, a worthy venture which funds young journalists from ethnic minority and underprivileged backgrounds which are under-represented in the press corps to get onto courses and traineeships which will help them establish careers in journalism. This morning's MPACUK web site carries their logo under

There are always good reasons for looking at Harry's Place, a site which does a sterling job at tracking and exposing the activities of the Islamist fellow travellers in the UK.
But there's a particularly important reason for supporting the site now. It's being sued by Hamas:
Last Friday, in the wake of a closely argued debate about whether Mohammed Sawalha, the President of the British Muslim Initiative, had used the phrase “Evil Jew” or “Jewish Lobby” in a speech, Harry’s Place received a letter. The letter is from Dean and Dean, a firm of solicitors who are acting for Mr Sawalha. Mr Sawalha has demanded that we take down certain articles from Harry’s Place, and publish an apology “in the attached wording”. The solicitors have failed to attach the apology that Mr Sawalha insists we publish. That omission matters little, as we have

Why is it that international sporting bodies tend to be headed by people who are, to be polite, repellent?
The IOC - which has apparently cleaned its act up a bit - has historically been corrupt from top to bottom.
Motor racing's FIA is headed by Max Mosley. Enough said.
UEFA's old boss, Lennart Johannson, was a dreadful specimen.
And as for FIFA's boss, Sepp Blatter: his latest outburst is typically ignorant and offensive. According to Mr Blatter:
I think in football there's too much modern slavery in transferring players or buying players here and there, and putting them somewhere. We are trying now to intervene in such cases. The reaction to the Bosman law is to make long-lasting contacts in order to keep the players and then if he wants to leave, then there is only one solution, he has to pay his contract....

Here are three examples of our wonderful criminal justice system today.
First, the now traditional 'punish the victim' story:
For more than two years, Sydney Davis's house has been under siege from youths throwing stones. After two hours of bombardment in the latest attack and no sign of the police, the 65-year-old retired builder decided enough was enough. As a particularly large missile landed in his kitchen, he grabbed a plank of wood from the garden and ran towards the gang to scare them away. The police arrived just in time - to arrest Mr Davis for possession of an offensive weapon. He now faces up to six months in prison. Yesterday Mr Davis said he was bewildered by the decision to prosecute him. He claims objects have been thrown at his house on 700 separate occasions. His windows have been smashed five times in eight

Apologies to those of you who have tried to leave comments. There seems to be something wrong with the site (a couple of my piosts vanished into the ether earlier).
I've asked the powers that be to investigate.
