#1 Right, terrorists have used the burka to escape the Police after an attempted suicide bombing. Can we now get on and ban the burka in all public places - striiking a blow for counter terrorism and women's rights at the same time? No, because we may offend a handful of religious extremists in the muslim community and some poncey Guardian reading Sociology lecturers? We really are screwed in the UK.

#2 Howard:

How is it now days near Windemere and the Lakes? Is it still rural Britain?

#3 Yes, rural Britain still exists out there... and is rapidly becoming the last retreat of the sane.

Things are not well in the British countryside - the government's antipathy to rural communities is remarkable compared to its cosseting of urban ethnic and religious minorities. This has bred resentment - the foot and mouth fiasco, foxhunting ban, closure of rural hospitals, mothballing of rural transport etc - and such resentment will lead to more direct protests than the 2002 Countryside March. Fortunately most of this green and pleasant land is not yet interspersed with minarets...

#4 Yes, the Lakes are still one of the most unspoilt areas of the country - enjoy while you can.

#8 I've got Brownies in the creek in front of my house. I hope the Great Blue Herons don't get them all.
