  • It seems to be asking for trouble have a referendum on the voting system on an polling day, but that is apparently what Tessa Jowell has in mind.  I refer you to the much more informed UK Polling Report for more details about the proposals and its likelihood of success.

  • Those accused of plotting the terrorist attacks on the U.S. in 2001 are being moved from Guantanamo Bay to be tried in a New York federal court.
