Full coverage of UK politics
To judge by David Miliband's whirlwind performance in Kiev this week, he does not seem like a man who is about to give up what he describes as "one of the best jobs in the world" to become Chancellor of the Exchequer - which, in the current economic climate, is arguably one of the worst.

 

David Miliband gave a rousing speech in Kiev

When Mr Miliband was appointed Foreign Secretary in Gordon Brown's first cabinet last summer, many questioned the appointment because of his youth and lack of experience. As Iain Martin writes today Mr Miliband certainly did little to reassure his critics that he was up to the job, particularly when he delivered his somewhat naïve "the world is a scary place" speech.

But having spent the last 24 hours in his company, accompanying him to Ukraine on arguably the most important trip he has made since becoming Foreign Secretary, there is no doubt that he has grown into the job, and is thoroughly enjoying himself. Being a British Foreign Secretary at the height of a major international crisis is an intoxicating affair - one minute you are taking a call from Condi - sorry, that should be Condoleezza Rice, the U.S. Secretary of State - and the next you are setting up a conference call of G8 foreign ministers - on this occasion, surprise, surprise, Sergei Lavrov, the Russian foreign minister, was not included - to discuss the next course of action.

The highly energetic Mr Miliband takes it all in his stride, and displays an almost effortless mastery of his brief.

There is no doubt that Mr Miliband is a very bright man; but now he seems to have found some policies to give his office some real depth and meaning. The world has been crying out for someone to make a ground-breaking speech on the Georgian crisis, and his performance in Kiev, where he set out the challenges of the post Cold War era, will, I believe, come to be seen as the defining moment of his tenure at the Foreign Office - just as, in another context, Robin Cook's ethical foreign policy speech defined his. People can argue whether he is right to rely so heavily on seeking a common EU approach to bring Putin's Russia to its senses, but his clear articulation of the challenges the West faces following Moscow's impetuous recognition of the breakaway Georgian republics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia was both masterful and courageous.

For this reason alone, it would be perverse in the extreme if Gordon Brown were now to move him to the Treasury, as was heavily flagged in last weekend's newspapers.

As Mr Miliband points out, his meteoric rise to high office has seem him occupy three jobs in four years. To take on another job - as Chancellor - just as he is getting into his stride as Foreign Secretary and finally giving Britain some clout on the world stage - would be perverse in the extreme.

But for a Prime Minister who last year made the bizarre decision to appoint a part-time Defence Secretary (Des Brown, remember, is also Scottish Secretary) at a time when Britain is fighting two wars at the same time, nothing can be taken for granted in the strange world that Gordon Brown inhabits.

Three Line Whip home

Good morning everyone,

Sofia commented about feeling the momentum behind IMPACT! and her comment is exactly what inspired this blog. We need to keep the positive flow of energy going and one way to do that is to focus our collective energy on doing things which will help others. People ask me HOW  I make the time to be so involved in this community. They remind me that I have so many responsibilities - four children, two dogs, two birds, a job. My answer is simple....

How could I NOT make time to involve myself in something I BELIEVE IN????

If you have not read my three most recent blogs, please do.  Please take the time to read the comments as well. Our members are inspiring, as well as supportive. Please  do not believe these blogs are about reaching into your pocket, because they are not. These blogs are about coming up with numerous ways we can help. Helping can be brainstorming. Helping can be researching. Helping can be making phonecalls. Helping can be writing letters to others. Helping can be offering emotional support. We can each find some way to help others, even if it is one hour per month. Our community has so much POWER and we CAN make an IMPACT!

There is a homeless family in Charlotte, North Carolina that needs help. Blue Goose Communty's own Aaron Desmaris contacted a news reporter in order to see what DIFFERENT ways we can help. That family of six is in a desperate situation. If we were in a time of need, it would be comforting to know that there ARE people who WANT to help.  We can help as individuals, or perhaps we can work together and help as a group. There are millions of others who need help as well, as we all know.

Please take time to visit the forums and lets throw some ideas out there. Our Blue Goose is going through some changes and this site will be much easier to maneuver, in the very near future. Please be patient and please believe that we are all here for good reason.......

 

to make an IMPACT!

It's a relationship. Kind of like a marriage. You have good days and bad days.

It's Marvin and Mike. Or perhaps we should say it's Mike and Marvin.

The Chickster thinks they have big time troubles.

"I don't know if it's repairable," says the Bengals beat man for the Dayton Daily News.

Chick thinks it's over Chris Henry. I say the foundation goes back to not making the playoffs since '05.

"There is a wedge between them. It's a carnival atmosphere down there."

Chick believes that since Marvin made it obvious and really strong that he didn't want Chris Henry back, and the owner shoves the wide out on him, it's something that might not be repaired.

Remember this, Bengal fans have a habit of worrying so much about their own problems that they forget the rest of the world might be hurting.

The Browns look so bad in pre-season the Romeo is threatening to play the starters in the final tuneup until they look good.

The Ravens have no QB. Boller hurt. Smith hurt. Joe Flacco too green. They might just go with the green because John Harbaugh is in his first year and can live with the rookie mistakes because he is on his honeymoon.

And, who out there loves the Steelers offensive line ?

There are problems all over the division. Not just in Cincy.

Bengals radio network starts at 5:35 tonight.

Who is Toby Harnden kidding?  The essence of both speeches was to put Barack Obama right behind the eight-ball.  If he doesn't deliver in November, the Clintons will crucify him.  Both speeches were designed to set Hillary up for 2012 - and I don't mean the high jump at the Olympics!.  And Bill Clinton?  He wants the White House again so much, he gives the impression he can already taste it.  Somebody described the speeches at th Convention as having apparent sincerity.  That's what it all is "apparent."  Smoke and mirrors, signifying blatant hypocrisy.  The tragedy is, that if Obama is to beat it, he is going to have to sink to their level.  So much change!

We want to do this experiment but we need you to comment and friend on our decoy's page first

  

 There are those who persist in questioning my account of things. They say, with a cynical curling of lip, that it is entirely impossible to accept that a farm-raised pig could speak, and write, and read with such fluency as I have. Let me tell these naysayers that Happy Harman and his Daily Star were my teacher and my university, powerful, both, as instruments to forge my ciphering skills. At noontide snap Harman would sit himself down upon an upturned apple box, unfold his newspaper, and munch contentedly on a huge doorstep of a sandwich  as he perused the contents of his newspaper. He would read slowly and painstakingly, articulating each letter aloud. Sometimes he would call Boss Harding for help, after licking away a delicious sliver of corned beef fat.

 "Boss," he would ask, "what be this word 'ere. Is it jedi?"

 "No, you plonker, it's J-A-D-E - jaid," replied the Boss, testy at the interruption of his football pools .

 So, within a matter of months I was able to acquire mastery over twenty English vowels and forty-four consonants, including the magical silent E, which changes a cap into a cape and a pip and into a pipe.  In matters of culture I was assisted by the occasional attention of Mrs. Harding who, chancing upon a report about Jean-Paul Gaultier, would read the latest trends in fashion to me. Constance Harding was among the first to recognize my promise and intimated that she had special plans for my progress. Do not think, though, I failed to learn the lessons of the countryside while advancing in literary skill. My sharp faculties made me quick to induce predictions from everyday occurrences. When bluebottles gathered in large formations around Happy Harman's head it was a sure sign that he would soon be off across the fields to the copse between the cow pasture and the corn. How we laughed at the poor man's awkward gait and stultified motion as he half-ran, half walked across the swampy ground.

Re previous post about Ryan Air, on reflection it seems quite obvious how the mushroom soup leaked. The pressure in the cabin was much lower than the pressure in the soup container.

Over the years cabin pressures have been gradually reduced without consulting the passengers, and who can doubt that in these days of high fuel prices they will be reduced even further (and perhaps already have been).

I would happily pay extra for a flight which had proper cabin pressure; the enhanced comfort and lower soup risk mitigating the environmental effects.

Incidentally a pilot once told me that the way they used to check the fuselage of the plane for leaks was to search for brown stains, where the nicotine had escaped. Alas now that smoking is not allowed....
