About the Bush UK visit:
Mr Bush will also be protected by hundreds of armed guards from the US... They will not be granted diplomatic immunity, and will face courts if they shoot anybody, the Home Office has promised.
The fact that the Home Office had to make any such assurance, even the possibility that they might shoot someone, is wholly fucking ridiculous, no? Bush is entering the UK with a small bloody invasion force. You'd think the tens of thousands of people preparing to attend protests would send a "You're not welcome" message...
