Wow, the Green Party over there looks pretty crazy. Here, they are largely irrelevant because they have essentially no chance of being elected to anything beyond the smallest and least important local positions. Are they more powerful in the UK?

Good set of links today BTW. I normally only pick out one or two but have now read most of today's ones :)

Argh my eyes....

Just how did you find a website selling "replica" mythical beast genitalia intended for human use!

More importantly, what would the medical name for this be...?

Jings! Thanks for that link re Greens - fascinating/scary stuff. They want to ban research on embryos? Really??

Interesting and sad to read about Pride/Trans as well, I'd not seen that anywhere else either. Cheers :)
