Nigel Evens, MP

Do you follow the news, at all … ?

I’m fairly sure you do.

I’m also fairly sure that — as I — you have various bits of news that catch your eye.

One that’s caught my eye, in the past few days … ?

Is the news that MP, and former Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons, Nigel Evans, has been acquitted of several counts of rape and sexual assault: a case that followed on from several similar trials — and acquittals — of men in the public eye.

Congratulations to him.

But one thing about his acquittal has caught my eye.

His claimed belief that Britain’s Crown Prosecution Service should pay his bills.

My first thought, there … ?

Was “Excuse ME … ?”

WikiLeaks: Julian Assange Get’s Out of Jail … sometime …

Well, that’s something …

Just in case you’ve not seen the news, it seems that Julian Assange — head of the WikiLeaks site —has been bailed by courts in London.

Complete with guarantees of £240,000.

He still has to stay in HMP Wandsworth for a few more days, whilst the Swedish authorities appeal the decision.

Personally, though … ?

I’m hoping this signals the start of the end of the travesty of his gaoling.
