England Prevails.
The end of British Parliamentary democracy?
[Jim Murphy] told the BBC: "I have given assurances that there are more safeguards on the face of this bill than before, that we will have statutory consultation, we will not do anything that is highly controversial and the relevant select committees of the House of Commons will have a veto on every single proposal."
"Trust us."

I've been wondering about this. No-one really seems to care, but perhaps that's only to be expected following so sustained an assault on ... sorry, wrong meeting. That's the mail I'm supposed to be sending to Tom. Tom, this is what happens ;).
What happened to the blow-by-blow Oscar bloggage btw?
I had to work :(. So the first time since 1998, I didn't watch the Oscars this year. It would be the year that Stewart hosts as well…
I can't imagine this sailing past the Lords, which means the Government may invoke the Parliament Act three more times before the next election. Which is just hideous really…

Stewart seemed out of his element actually. He wasn't comfortable delivering others' jokes and the Oscar audience, as we know, can take itself incredibly seriously.
