Vocal Assassin back......
The vocal assassin has been away for a while but he's back and rearing to go dispensing his opinion on events.
This week in London, a rival free newspaper the London paper joined the rebranded mid afternoon freebie by the standard the london lite. On really wonders if this will spell the end of the morning paid for newspapers. A lot of us watch the news in the morning so don't buy the paper however because the metro is free we pick up a copy. After work if there are two free newspapers why pick up a copy of the evening standard for 50p?
On other news Tony Blair's future looks bleak. According to the BBC,17 labour MPs including a minister signed a letter that urged him to quit. There is a famous saying "Quit whilst you are ahead" but it seems the control and power is proving a hard addiction for Blair. Whereas he has refused to give a time for his departure in order to be able to finish his legacy on a high, he is so far removed from the electorate to understand that his policies are not working in most cases and have not lead us anywhere. His blind following of George Bush in foreign policy has left not only Afghanistan and Iraq but now Lebanon in a serious mess and local policies at home are faltering. Both the Torys and Liberal democrats have surged forward in opinion polls. When he finally departs his legacy will be remembered for the lame duck that he was rather than the hero he claims to be. Steve 'Crikey' Irwin passed away after being stung by a deadly stingray. He was know as the croc hunter for his love of animals whether be they crocs, snakes or other dangerous animals. What a shame that he was the one that passed away an not soham killer Ian Huntley whose live was spared by prison offers after taking a massive overdose. Then again after all the suffering that the family of his victims have gone through it seems fitting enough that he live in shame for the rest of his natural life.
