Hardly surprising. The Peace Movement was saying this was what was happening at the time. How on earth Blair ever thought that peace and democracy were compatible with lies that led to hundreds of thousands of deaths is utterly beyond me.

Lord Goldsmith: Blair did not reflect legal advice on Iraq war – Home News, UK – The Independent.

 

I am just posting this in the vague hope that it may be of use to someone else one day as I have found no other reference to this procedure anywhere online. This morning my iPhone4 was completely dead. Although I was thought it hadn’t needed charging I assumed that maybe I was wrong and it did, so plugged it into the charger. Nothing happened. The screen was blank, it wouldn’t switch on and a normal hard restart/reset of holding down the sleep/wake up and home buttons had no effect at all.

So I plugged it into my computer as I have known that kick an iPhone into life. Nothing happened to the phone screen. Still blank and no response. iTunes did however tell me that it couldn’t a connect to the iPhone as it received an invalid response. So life of some sort detected from the phone.

For some reason or another out of frustration I then tried quickly pressing the sleep/wake up and home buttons sumultaneously three times. This produced an instant response from the phone in that the Apple logo appeared, then after two or three minutes it synced with iTunes and then all settled down. As I thought it didn’t really need charging at it had over 50% charge left.

All a bit of a mystery but it now seems to be all working again.

 

Just added this as a comment on the Daily Fail site but I doubt they will approve it:

This article and the responses to it are very instructive. Between them they show the extent of Tory contempt for the poor. How anyone can keep a straight face while writing the words:
“But, being Conservatives, they have remained loyal, and they have not made a noisy fuss – unlike Liberal Democrats angry with their party’s smaller sacrifices.”
Much as I now despise the LibDems for their craven capitulation to the Tories in exchange for a taste of power it is ludicrous to suggest that they have given up more than the Tories in the coalition.
Just remember Mail readers, over 60% of those who cast a vote did so for parties to the left of centre. Not for draconian, economically dangerous, unnecessary, ideologically driven cuts. That these are being imposed to the detriment of the poorest members of society is an insult to democracy.
We expect nothing less from Tories but we did expect more from the LibDems but they have abused our expectations.
