Obviously the main news story of the day is the death of Sir Patrick Moore.

RIP.

The last two days I've been without internet so this is the first I've heard of it. Bizarrely I remember thinking about him on Saturday and wondering if he was still alive... now I know.

Everything I hear about Atos makes it sounds like it is in the direct pay of Satan. One more chunk of evidence...

I consider Sandbrook more an entertainer who deals in historical facts than an historian.

Though he's often a little fuzzy on those 'facts'.

'Deals in' is a term with many wide applications.

Well, they took the Canadian playbook for independance referendum. The scare campaign, no matter if the elements they try to scare people with are true or false.

No, that's any vote on anything.

Scottish Tories set out their stall on devolution. They have finally settled on something close to Devo Max promising greater powers than Labour. It only took them forty years...

That's terrible news for Ed Milliband
