The couple who filmed 'Sophie of Dundee' as she brandished a knife and axe, seemingly in self-defence, have been charged by police. Shame on the centrist commentators who piled on her, says Laurie Wastell.

Octopus CEO Greg Jackson has blamed Ed Miliband's "broken energy system" for Britain's sky-high energy costs. Too right, says Paul Homewood. So why does he still back renewables?

One pub is closing every day. And Labour's 'banter ban' ? Clause 20 of the Employment Rights Bill ? is only going to make it worse as pubs are left with the escalating bills to cover their legal costs.

Ben Ansell, in Why Politics Fails, outlines "five traps of the modern world and how to escape them". Professor James Alexander wonders how he can escape yet another book that tries to save the world with Left-wing dogma.

'Bloody Sunday' picket , Dublin , Saturday 29th January 2011.

Hi !

An intercepted letter to the commander of the 1st Battalion of the British Parachute Regiment , Lt. Colonel Derek Wilford , was printed on the front page of 'The Sunday Press' newspaper on the Sunday following the massacre in Derry .
It was penned by Brigadier F.P. Barclay , DSO , MCDL , Colonel , The Royal Norfolk Regiment , and says -

1/2/'72.

Dear Wilford ,

As an ex-parachute Brigade Commander I write to say how proud it made one feel to see the way , on TV , which your lads went into action against those blighters last Sunday . They looked splendid and , as usual , bang on the ball .

It seems to me and many others that prompt retaliatory action such as this is long overdue . It will have , I've little doubt , a most salutory effect . Should have happened long since!
I sincerely trust you successfully weather those thoroughly unjustified but seemingly inevitable brickbats and recriminations emanating mostly from those who either have no sense of law and order , duty or perspective , or who are spineless .
With best wishes to you and yours ,
Sincerely ,
Peter Barclay ,
Little Dunham Lodge ,
Kings Lynn , Norfolk .


The 'Bloody Sunday' picket will be held on Saturday , January 29th , 2011, from 12 Noon to 2pm , on the traffic island facing the GPO in Dublin .
All Welcome!

Thanks!

Sharon.

Hi !

The RSF 'Bloody Sunday' picket was held in O' Connell Street today , over a two-hour period , and attracted a fair bit of attention , including unwanted attention from five 'Special Branch' operatives.
About 30 RSF members and/or supporters were present , with numerous banners and placards , and almost one-thousand leaflets were distributed.
RSF President Des Dalton said a few words , and dozens of shoppers and on-lookers etc approached those on the picket to take a leaflet and 'pose' between the banners/placards for a photograph!
A brief report and a few pics can be viewed at the 'Related Link' below , and more of same will be published in the February 2011 issue of 'Saoirse' , which goes to print on Wednesday 9th of that month.
Thanks,
Sharon.

The fact that the visit of a rickety old queen from a foreign country for a few days makes some people think that the British Empire is attacking us shows everybody how mature some people are.

Hi All !

"Rickety" old visitors are welcome - man or woman - but the woman in question is , as stated , Commander-in-Chief of the British Army , an organisation which is not yet finished with its 'activities' in Ireland.
It is that fact which Republicans object to , not her age.
Thanks anyway ,
Sharon.
