09:52:30 <sbp> In 2001 Follett appeared in the television satire programme Brass Eye which satirised media hysteria towards the issue of paedophilia. In the programme she was duped into giving fake warnings about an online game called Pantu the dog, claiming on camera that a paedophile had converted the dogs eye into a webcam in order to see the child player.
09:52:30 <sbp> Follett went on to demonstrate how the paedophile would wear a t-shirt with a small illustration of a child's body on it, in order to disguise themselves as another child and how the paedophiles get children to press their faces against the screen and then use special gloves to feel the child.

19:09:24 <sbp> Arnia, nslater, others UK and non-UK:
19:09:26 <sbp> [[[
19:09:28 <sbp> A bus is a good way to get over to campaigning. You know I’m into Facebooks and all that kind of new technology now. But I’m into face to face. You’ve got to go out in the market square. I undressed 450 students yesterday with Ed Miliband and Eddie Izzard and I did 300 last night. You have got to talk to our people and when I hear Charles Clarke saying it’s a shame, I have got to say ... bit of dayjay vu [sic].
19:09:32 <sbp> They were the same people who crawled out of the woodwork last September, told us they were finished, Gordon should go. Clarke actually did apologise later and said he thought he’d got it wrong. Now he’s back at it again. I just say to them, for God’s sake stop complaining and get campaigning. We’ve had great difficulties.
19:09:37 <sbp> If you go out in the market square, like in Liverpool [sic], if you know here, they are asking all these questions about allowances, about Gurkhas, quite properly so, and you have got to answer them and in public as well. But what I do say, let’s make sure we get the big decisions right. I know you are a bit of a half glass man, half empty not full ...
19:09:44 <sbp> Just turn back, you will hear them, when you have had the Americans saying there were signs that we are getting recovery both in America and here. Now, they are the big decisions, John, that and climate. Keep your eye on the big decisions and think about some of those. One, about whether it’s boom or bust.
19:09:48 <sbp> If you look at the 10 years, we didn’t have the 10 years of the Tories where you did have boom and bust. John, John, there were millions unemployed, there were millions into poverty. I don’t know what you are talking about. If you look at that card we produced in 1967 [sic] which I often bring on.
19:09:52 <sbp> I could give it you again and that card said what we would do and we delivered on it, largely due to Gordon Brown and Tony Blair. If you look at the actual point of the regulation, Gordon did bring in regulation. He was the man who used to warn us in Cabinet 'if I can’t get the I-arm-F [sic] and the EU and the World Bank to recognise we need to change the finance’. He constantly complained he couldn’t get it done.
19:09:57 <sbp> By God, when we got the collapse they wanted to listen to Gordon Brown. Capitalisation, the building of the stimulus in the economy and now as we heard from President Obama an independence here. It’s beginning to turn and that regulatory framework wasn’t tough enough. Have a bit of perspective about it.
19:10:01 <sbp> Concentrate on the big decisions, really, that is get the economy right, climate change coming up this year. He’s working hard for that. The big decisions are right but I hear people say 'I don’t like this smile’. For God’s sake do you go on an aeroplane, talk to the pilot and ask if he’s got a smile or not? Can he land the plane?
19:10:05 <sbp> It’s still a bit of a problem, the McBrides and all that, what was his name, I can’t remember now, doing that stupid email. They are still a bit of a problem. We have been making problems, as David Blunkett and Charles has said, and Charles, if you are ashamed to stay in the party it is obvious what you should do isn’t it? If you can’t work in it.
19:10:09 <sbp> I am really staggered when I hear a Labour MP that when come through this record and after all Charles has been in Cabinet, David has been in Cabinet. They are in and out. They out themselves. Stop complaining and start campaigning.
19:10:16 <sbp> I asked David to come campaigning and he said he couldn’t because he was going to a football match. Fine. But then you make a speech in Doncaster attacking. What I’m saying is, have the debate amongst ourselves, do the issues, have the debate, and David, come and join me on the campaign for God’s sake.
19:10:20 <sbp> Charles, well, he’s not a campaigner. I’m out here facing the public, getting on with the case and that’s what Labour’s got to do. Just put out proud of our record. That’s what the go forth campaign is all about. And with Alistair tonight up in Keighley, Glenys in Manchester, MPs, junior ministers, Rosie Winterton...
19:10:24 <sbp> ]]] — John Prescott
19:10:26 <sbp> (on the BBC, Today Show I think it was)

19:13:13 <nslater> fuck me
19:18:47 <bancus> Maybe later.
19:20:22 <sbp> there seem to be two main problems with politics
19:21:06 <sbp> the first is that you either vote for that lot, represented above, or the other lot, represented by Eton. or the lot on which you'll waste your vote. you're not really voting for policies as you are deciding between two policy bundles which are both terrible
19:22:11 <sbp> the second is that for the most part, the policies aren't represented anyway, and neither are the candidates (and, therefore, neither are the people). if everybody in the country read that kind of confused rant from Prescott before he got into being Deputy Prime Minister, perhaps he wouldn't have got there?
19:22:33 <sbp> (though on that note, see above)
19:23:15 <[bjoern]> executive summary of quote plz
19:23:30 <sbp> last election someone was on the fence about what to do, so I ventured to suggest a candidate, and they said fine, as long as they are in line on one particular issue that meant a lot to them, that actually made a difference to them
19:23:42 <sbp> so I said okay, let's try to find that out
19:23:53 <sbp> tried the web, obvious first point of call. no information there!
19:24:14 <[bjoern]> You sure this is going to be a summary?
19:24:47 *** [bjoern] changed the topic to: "If you can't tweet it, it's probably not worth saying."
19:24:54 <sbp> so I thought hey, let's try ringing this party's headquarters. it's election time, and they're bound to want to get another voter, so they're going to be really helpful. rang them up; they were a complete pile of crap. they gave no information whatsoever, and didn't even seem to know what this issue — a central bit of policy — was all about
19:25:27 <sbp> so the only recourse was to try to contact the candidate. and after two days of constantly trying to reach the candidate, by phone and email as far as I recall, there was no response
19:25:46 <sbp> and that was whom I thought was the best choice...
19:25:50 <sbp> sigh
19:26:10 <sbp> [bjoern]: the quote is about as summarisable as Ulysses

20:14:02 <sbp> I just heard Mr. T shouting that
20:14:08 <sbp> from a helicopter, in an advert
20:14:16 <sbp> some guy had a pool and he wouldn't go in it
20:14:16 <[bjoern]> He'd sure like to get some...
20:14:23 <sbp> because the water was too cold or something
20:14:30 <sbp> so Mr. T comes along in his army helicopter
20:14:35 <sbp> and it's loaded with Snickers bars
20:14:38 <[bjoern]> no very non-gayish of him
20:14:46 <sbp> and he fires them (they sorta fling out) at the man who won't get in the pool
20:14:57 <sbp> (the man, even though he's weedy and won't go in a pool, has a hot girlfriend)
20:15:02 <sbp> and then Mr. T goes: GET SOME NUTS
