Walter Wolfgang, from London, was ejected from the hall after shouting “nonsense” as Foreign Secretary Jack Straw defended Iraq policy.

Police later used powers under the Terrorism Act to prevent Mr Wolfgang’s re-entry, but he was not arrested.

Word of the day: Astroturfing - he term astroturfing pejoratively describes formal public relations projects which deliberately seek to engineer the impression of spontaneous, grassroots behavior. The goal is the appearance of independent public reaction to a politician, political group, product, service, event, etc., by centrally orchestrating the behavior of many diverse and geographically distributed individuals.

Was pretty good, Elizabeth Bennet was fucking sexy, she so was, not a great fan of Knightly’s smile cheeky kind of smile but what the hey. She was articulate, witty, strong willed, wheeeeeeeeeeeeeey :)


Also, interesting to see that the film people organisation have completely changed their tact with regards to the downloading and buying of copies of films. Before it was buy this and you’re funding terrorism but now it’s all about the experience - the spiralling prices, the lack of anything decent aside from the usual hollywood stuff (which i don’t have a problem with, i don’t, just some variation would be nice) - i mean, the big screen etc.
