I spotted this on Iain Dale’s Diary about Ken Clarke’s possible re-instatement to a Cameron cabinet:-
1. Would he sign up to Cameron’s European policy?
Interesting question, but before anyone could answer it, surely they’d have to know what Cameron’s policy on Europe was.
I asked Iain himself, and he rather unhelpfully suggested I Google for it, a […]
Just doing a quick peruse of Comment is Free when I found this:-
Asked about that modern green dilemma - whether it is better to buy organic fair trade from developing countries, Monty’s reply was uncompromising and a little politically incorrect. “Maybe the third world countries also have to suffer a bit as a result of […]

Fry defends the BBC
“The BBC enriches the country in ways we will only discover when it has gone and it is too late to build it back up again,” the writer and comedian said.
