As you all know, I'm against the war, but the Stop The War Coalition look like they're about to start seriously annoying me. Harry pointed me to this page, which includes the following about upcoming demonstrations:
This Saturday we are asking local coalitions to organise demonstrations focusing where possible on pro war MPs... In Brixton they are targeting Kate Hoey.
Maybe she's changed her mind in the past week, but according to Hansard, Kate Hoey voted against the war.
And then there's:
In Manchester and London, demonstrations will be targeting the BBC.
Excuse me for a moment - IN THE NAME OF ALL THAT'S SANE, WHY? WHY? WHY? - thankyou. What the hell does a demonstration against the BBC hope to achieve, and aren't there slightly more important things to be demonstrating about at the moment? Like the war itself, just to pluck an example at random. Has STWC been infiltrated by pro-war activists trying to make it look stupid? Either that, or someone's completely taken leave of their senses.
