And With Perfect Timing

It's now 22:57 on August 18th and just as the United Nations Security Council is debating passing a resolution calling on Syria to prosecute all those who have committed human rights abuses my grandmother's had a small fall and got herself in to a big panic.

It's not her fault. It's just that these years of carers and involuntary but sustained drug abuse has eroded her natural coping mechanisms and created dependence. This of course completely undermines the independent living approach to social care which was founded in the USA in the 1970's and has been official British (NHS) policy since the early 1990's.

So is Britain voting with a straight face on this one.
