Victories for common sense, Part 2
(Or, behold the power of my blog, number 876)
The crack-induced brainfade at the RMT has disappeared and they've now called off next Thursday's planned Tube strike. It'll be interesting to see if it has any lingering effects on the Mayoral elections, though.
But, to prove that swivel-eyed lunacy still reigns supreme in some quarters, we've learned today that the UKIP's latest infamous supporter is Jonathan 'liar and a cheat' Aitken. This, of course, is the same former jailbird perjurer who wanted to be a Conservative candidate just a few months ago...but I'm sure that played no part in his decision.
Anthony and Will discuss this some more, and I guess the only debate is on who's going to be the next member of the political Z-list to announce their support for UKIP?
Update: As I mentioned in the comments at Anthony's, it's just occurred to me that the most likely UKIP supporter would be a broadcasting legend, a renowned name in his local region, a man experienced in radio and television, but shunted to an obscure show on local radio because politically correct BBC bosses couldn't take his style. Unfortunately, Alan Partridge is a fictional character.
