While I was posting yesterdays scribblings,in a strange synchronicity the police had surrounded Raoul Moat, and after a six hour stand off he killed himself. Bringing the whole sorry saga to its inevitable conclusion, live and direct on SkyTV. Meanwhile hundreds of miles away in London there were five shootings, it’s commonplace in the capital, but there are no airforce jets overhead or armoured vehicles on the streets hunting down the culprits, just gangs armed with guns and knives declaring war on each other. Someone else will probably be shot or stabbed tonight.

Seeing the blatant cover up by the police concerning the G20 demo with the guy getting pushed and then dying yet the police were cleared of all blame. Shit like that only breeds respect for people like moat. Sad Sad world we live in, Remembering Blair peach and Liddle towers. In those days there was actually bands wishing to sing about or question police brutality etc, Can't see cheryl cole or JLS doing any such thing. Times eh !
