The internet could soon be made obsolete. The scientists who pioneered it have now built a lightning-fast replacement capable of downloading entire feature films within seconds. At speeds about 10,000 times faster than a typical broadband connection, ?the grid? will be able to send the entire Rolling Stones back catalogue from Britain to Japan in less than two seconds. The latest spin-off from Cern, the particle physics centre that created the web, the grid could also provide the kind of power needed to transmit holographic images; allow instant online gaming with hundreds of thousands of players; and offer high-definition video telephony for the price of a local call.

Escaped! Scot free, the lot of them. Spats, Fingers, Joe the Dip, Johnny the Wallop, Smoochy Sue, all got clean away and nobody laid a finger on them. They pulled off the great Labour party funding heist and where are they now? Round at Snipcock and Tweed with their memoirs and then off to join the gang in Marbella. And what does the chairman of the august Commons select committee on public administration do about all this? Does he raise the alarm and read the riot act? He does not. Investigating the affair last week, Tony Wright threw a tizzy fit at the poor honest copper, John Yates, who had just endured that most painful experience, being royally shafted by the British Establishment.

THE Pentagon has drawn up plans for massive airstrikes against 1,200 targets in Iran, designed to annihilate the Iranians? military capability in three days, according to a national security expert. Alexis Debat, director of terrorism and national security at the Nixon Center, said last week that US military planners were not preparing for ?pinprick strikes? against Iran?s nuclear facilities. ?They?re about taking out the entire Iranian military,? he said. Debat was speaking at a meeting organised by The National Interest, a conservative foreign policy journal. He told The Sunday Times that the US military had concluded: ?Whether you go for pinprick strikes or all-out military action, the reaction from the Iranians will be the same.? It was, he added, a ?very legitimate strategic calculus?. Saved By: Mike Power | View Details | Give Thanks

What social mobility actually means is joining the middle classes ? the hard-working, educated and respectable bourgeois masses of middle Britain. However, something shocking was revealed last week. The middle classes are not by any means as respectable as we thought. In fact they ? I will not say ?we?, though I do to my shame belong to the middle classes, because I do not wish to associate myself with their turpitude ? are criminals.
