Gone for ten pieces this week, due to a particularly strong edition of the Sunday Times, and some juicy bits elsewhere...
  • Ever wanted to know why Boris was called Boris? Stanley Johnson previews his autobiography in the Times.
  • The Times follows 14,ooo blogs and cottons on to Spotify, something that TB can't get enough of.
  • Rod Liddle talks some sense for once over the Luton "nutters".
  • Stop press. Jeremy Clarkson chooses the French over the Americans.
  • The Mail reports that Labour head honcho Ray Collins is a little bit racist. Bit steep.
  • Matthew d'Ancona in the Telegraph captures the significance of Cameron taking the gloves off this week.
  • Simon Heffer rages against the waste of time and money that is the G20, again in the Telegraph
  • David Mitchell goes to war with his online foes in his Guardian column.
  • The NOTW reports that the tin-hat brigade are pushing their 9/11 documentary to television from the net.
  • And finally the Times reports on the friendly council "re-education" plans

I didn't know David Mitchell wrote articles/columns. I have now posted a (quite kind) comment there, though it does have some useful "side info within it.

The D'Ancona article is very good, and I have already blogged on it (late last night). Recommended reading, as he often is.

I'm not quite sure about Liddle, even now, but thanks for the link — indeed, for all of 'em.

Your Boris link has an https:// extra and fails to work.
