DAILY BLOG REVIEW / by Jennie Rigg

Smash Boredom has news of the Climate Rush protest in parliament square on the group blog Powerswitch.

Alas, a Blog! discusses Sarah Palin’s assertion that Obama hangs with terrorists.

Dave Hingsburger describes how a threatening phone message affects an activist.

I have some questions for the writers of the current Lib Dem party website.

Showbiz: Andrew K Lawston has a weekend of running into celebs.

Cookery: Junkfood Science takes a look at breakfast cereal.

Blame Maggie link of the week: Nich Starling blames the current economic crisis on Maggie

And, as always, if that’s not enough linkage for you, SepticIsle has more.

No worries, Sarah. I have a couple of really good DisAbled writers on my LJ friends list, but sadly they tend to mostly post friends-locked, so I can’t link them here (or, I could, but nobody would be able to read them and it would be pointless).
