Also, this vote means that the Labour conference is still on.

So, riot on the streets of Brixton or Tottenham, (rightly) experience some time at Her Majestys Pleasure; smash up a restaurant in Oxford, become PM and get a film glorifying your hijinks. Saw the poster for this on the way home tonight, have to admit to the use of a few choice profanities. http://...

To keep the little sanity I have left, I've made arrangements to be out for some of tomorrow. A nearby Tesco superstore has introduced a section of American foodstuffs so we're going to pop in, buy Mr Ohso a bottle of genuine American Root Beer, and then sit in Windsor Great Park for a couple of ho...

Morning all. From last night: If the Scots do go, and that's looking borderline likely, I suspect that several things will happen in the first few months following the vote. 1. The rUK economy will have another dip because of the result and the flight from sterling. This will be offset over time as ...

Well, here's as good a reason as any to vote "No" in the referndum: Piers Morgan attempts to save the Union by promising to go back to the US if Scotland votes 'No' to independence http://www.independent.co.uk/news/people/piers-morgan-attempts-to-save-the-union-by-promising-to-go-back-to-t...

Don't know much about broadcasting rights. Virtually all Sky programmes are available clearly throughout Europe if you have a dish, a Sky box and a Sky subscription. However Sky will not sell you a subscription unless you are living in the UK or Ireland because of 'broadcasting rights'. Provide a U...

Got called away for a bit. Mr Riots has had one of his culinary 'outings'. He had decided to prepare in advance for our next field trip ... and hard boil an egg for a sandwich. I vacated the kitchen as I hate the smell of said egg and the resulting sandwich - sort of fart based. Some time later - w...

I'd have thought it was pretty obvious that if the vote is Yes, then that makes Scotland a foreign country, and the Beeb won't let anyone but UK license payers watch their programmes. A good example is BBC America where they won't show anything that involves UK licence payers money too deeply. They...

I notice the Graun buried the "Labour lead 8 points in our own survey" article. Comments never opened and consigned to having to dig it out.

The Reunion - Radio 4 this morning. When Tony Blair delivered the phrase: 'New Labour, New Britain!' to the 1994 party conference, his first as leader, it was the result of a decade of change within the party. Kinnock had rebranded it, introducing the rose as party emblem and had distanced the Labo...

Anyone fancy tweeting the date and Hansard reference to when Burnham did say sorry about Mid Staffs to this liar? And that Burnham only took office at the DoH after Mid Staffs.

Here's Anatoly's round up: Six local council byelections this week: Vale of White Horse DC - LibDem hold in a two member ward where the Tories topped the poll last time (it had also split 1LibDem/1 Tory in 2003, though the LibDems won both in 2007, plus a 2009 by-election) with a swing of over 10% a...

Perhaps FTN should create a new feature. Little Nicky Robinson's politics blog. Tubby could just add the interpretation of the days events to it as he see's fit on an adhoc and occasional basis.

What a farce. Cameron had a nasty PMQs heading his way about Crosby. Miliband ought to have turned up to the chamber and asked questions to an empty chair. Oh yes? What's Crosby been up to now then?
