#2 I still think he's done good and for the right reasons....ineffectual, maybe, but he's tried. You don't hear Blair talking about China's participation in the genocide or that asswipe Jack Straw (too busy assisting his Mullah masters)

#3 In two minds about Bob, as I have recently been slagging off musos/actors with alleged political stances, not here, though. Never liked his music(?) anyway, but I would point out to him, if I ever met him, that he is about 30 years too late to save Africa. Waste of time.

But, maybe, there are enough boomtown rats out there listening to him these days to make a difference, dont think so. Maybe he's rubbing shoulders with our Chancellor, Gordon Brown, and is gonna promise to educate Africa whilst England hits reverse gear. Maybe he's a Rolling Stone fan too, accepting the fact Mick and Keith aren't allowed to play four of their songs in China, (but it doesnt matter, they have a catalogue of 400 songs, so they will play in China anyway, despite censorship, well, theyre off my Christmas cards list).
Hopefully, when assessing the above, if it ever happens, Sir Bob will be the one to have seen the light and will swing a few half-cooked minds in the right direction.
Regards to all, Ship, up for a drink, N London, Thursday?
