Many thanks to Palmedia for working tirelessly all morning in their eventual success in undoing what I did to the .com website.
The site is back up and running and features an exclusive article for MSH by Mr Roger Helmer MEP, thanks Roger.

Well I've really done it this time!
I have managed to totally break the .com site.
I am not sure as to when the site will be back up and running, but believe me I am working on it.

MakeSocialismHistory has now gone onto its .com server and can now be found at www.makesocialismhistory.com
See you all there!

As you will have noticed this site has not been updated for over a week and before that update there had been another sgnificant gap. This is mainly due to the fact that I am in the shit at Uni and trying to climb out of a Gert big hole I've dug for myself, on top of this the council elections are on the horizon so I will be campaigning for the next 5 weeks to try and get onto Bradford City council.
I am updating this site this week which will allow other members of the team both old and new to post articles at their own discretion. This will hopefully get the whole site moving again, but until then you will all just have to hang on in there for a while longer. I do hope you like the new-look site, please remember, comments in the forum area of the new site.

The so called "scandal" of undeclared loans made to political parties at the last General electon has gripped the media for well over a week now and it doesnt show much sign of letting up. Everytime something new comes out the press and guttermedia jump all over it. It's not that I don't care, i do. It's not that I don't think it's important, I do.
My problem with the massive media hype that has surrounded the entire affair, it's the typical "burn the buggers at the stake" mentality that Fleet street has adopted over the past few year. In all honesty I can't remember when it wasn;t lime this, but looking at the history books it certainly wasn't. There has generally been an Entente Cordiale between Politicians and the pressman, where has this gone? Why has it been thrown out?


A shocking insight of the British military capabilities has been exposed today. Since going to war in Iraq the R.A.F. has been unable to supply enough aircraft for Parachute regiment soldiers to gain their wings. The number has dropped from 92% before the war in Iraq to just under 25% at the present time.
The full story is in todays Telegraph or at their website here.

Slobodan Milosevic has been found dead in his cell in the Hague only months before his trial for war crimes and crimes against humanity was set to conclude. It is reported that he died of natural causes.

Over at BigDaddys blog the campaign against the despotic Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill continues. As is pointed out, if the bill is allowed to pass it would mean that individuals or Government departments would be able to amend bills without having to go through the whole faff of Parliament, afterall it's only our ancient democratic system which was fought for throughout the civil war and that has prevented such dictatorial powers being instilled upon any one person at any time since.
