DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg

NAWE publicises the Benjamin Franklin House Literary Prize 2009. It’s something we should all be having a go at, I reckon.

Steve Webb MP wants the expenses row to be sorted out as quickly and as transparently as possible. As does Zombie!Gladstone. Mr Quist has some suggestions as to how this might be done.

Alex Wilcock’s heart goes out to poor, sweet, Barbara Follett.

The Lay Scientist goes all Ben Goldacre on the Daily Fail’s ass.

Jonathan Calder has news on the Boris Johnson Cloning Project.

Septicisle has the usual collection of weekend links.

And finally, if you’re really REALLY bored, Our Kingdom has a book-length conversation between individuals, parties and social movements who with or without borders nevertheless rarely talk to one another; or you can browse through previous Netcasts
