Don't you just love Valentine's day? Half the country being soppy and playing tonsil tennis in public, and the rest of us getting depressed about the distinct lack of post we got this morning :-(. Still, I had a good night last night ;-) so that just about makes up for it... To pick up Sarah's points: Those of you who aren't from Britain might not know that the government have decided to try and make us pay to go to university in the future. And basically nothing is being done to stop them. The national students' union are a complete joke, because they're all only there to try and get jobs as Labour MPs in a few years time, so they daren't oppose the Labour government. Our university student union president has been forced to not stand for election for a national post, purely because she opposes fees and isn't a member of the Labour party. The thing is, people only voted for the Labour party at the election because they thought they'd be better than the Conservatives; and they've turned out to be just as shit, if not worse. The sooner Tony Blair goes and we get a socialist leader the better. Right, enough ranting, I don't want to do a Northy. I'm sure all of you are intelligent enough to see what we're fighting against. As for Chumbawumba, I don't think anyone takes their 'anarchist' politics seriously. Their idea of anarchy at the moment seems to be getting signed to EMI, and making shitloads of money out of "Tubthumping", and then keeping it all for themselves. However, it was highly amusing when the singer emptied an ice bucket over the deputy Prime Minister's head on Monday...
