I think you've covered everything that's gone on the last few weeks and summed it up perfectly. I think it's really important that twitter as a collective group are able to show that people power really does exist. Rachael (@rachaelblogs) Such a well written blog.

I agree with you on pretty much all of your points, however the one thing that has struck me is that most people have pinned the blame on Carter-Ruck for the Trafigura disgrace - that's a bit like shouting at a dog for licking its balls; this sort of thing is just what the shits at Carter-Fuck do. The person whose name should be written on the sides of the Palace Of Westminster, along with the word SHAME, is that of the judge that granted the injunction. He is the one who really cocked his nose at hundreds of years of democracy in this country. Nice round-up.
