Good News Guardian

Today's Guardian (note: that link will take you to your today's Guardian, not the today at time of writing) was full of Good News. To wit:

  • A Select Committee has said a whole bunch of things that Made Sense, like a) Cannabis isn't that harmful; b) Ecstacy is harmful, but if we say it's as harmful as Cocaine and Heroin we'll be laughed at; c) we should make a difference between people selling to their mates, and people selling to punters, and often cutting drugs with heinous stuff to make margin.
  • David Irving will lose his house in Mayfair, after spectacularly losing a libel case against Penguin Books, who publised a book saying he was a revisionist and a fascist (OK, so I don't remember the exact words)
  • Choughs are being re-introduced to Cornwall - albeit probably because they were normally nesting in Brittany and got blown over.

On the down-side, though, the US are still fuckwits.
