Welcome to Casting the net, Liberal Conspiracy’s daily web review. As always, please feel free to share your own recommendations in the comments section.

Highlights

Pedants corner: a law is a law.

John Pugh MP – Essence of Cleggism
Does “Essence of Cleggism” sound just plain daft to anyone else? It’s something like Classical Liberalism, apparently.

Stumbling and Mumbling – BBC bias
It’s not *that* bias, though.

The Very Fluffy Diary of Millennium Dome, Elephant – A Society Willing to Take Risks

[QUOTE] “I couldn’t care less what you do with my body when I’m dead – burn it, piss on it, extract my eyeballs and use them as marbles – it’s up to you.”

Skipper – Peter Hain Looks Like ‘Toast’
It’s over for Hain, so says Bill Jones.

Jonathan Levy/Boulton & Co. – Advantage Giuliani?
Are things actually going to plan for Uber-Hawk Rudy Giuliani?
