The kids are being particularly chimpish this morning, but that hasn’t prevented me from bringing you today’s freshest links from around the net. As ever, go ahead and serve up your own discoveries in the comments.
Freemania – Tom picks out the prime cuts from Parliament’s buffet of select committees.
Tim Collins – The 42-days vote was a victory for the terrorists, and utterly futile in fighting terrorism. But we knew that, right?
Political Betting – The Times is running with the story that the National Audit Office has rejected the Treasury’s accounts. Remember that bank, Northern Rock…
Earthpal – Writing a Birthday Card to the NHS. It may be rudderless and structurally flawed, but at least it doesn’t check your insurance status before it will treat you.
Chicken Yoghurt – Gordon Brown is the right man to be PM, because let’s be honest, a man so utterly unable to answer a straight question would never get a job in the real world.
Mick Hartley – On visiting Hayward Gallery’s 40th anniversary show, named “Psycho Buildings”. Well it’s culture, init? Well, actually it sounds a bit crap.
*Martin* Bright – Interviews Ed Balls MP.

That Tim Collins article is pretty much perfect, good read.
Lee, agreed. However he asks “why 42 days?”
Well, it’s 28 days plus two weeks… that is the extent of the Government’s reasoning, bless them.
I quite liked the pointlessness of his “it’s half of 90 minus 3 days”
I also like the reason I heard somewhere that it is the amount of times he’s justified his actions in PMQ’s by stating economic competence over a decade, but that might have been an exageration 😉
Reactions: Twitter, blogs
