Yet more bad news if you're a serviceman or servicewoman with the US armed forces. The Pentagon have drawn up a list of sites which their employees will no longer be allowed access from company computers.

A regular soldier or officer in Iraq or Afghanistan will still be free to log on to the "banned list" from any internet café they can find in Baghdad or Kabul that are still occupier friendly. The news is sure to overshadow the other little titbits of news from the hive this wednesday evening ; Sarkozy's wife didn't vote in the second round and wants a divorce & Prince Harry of the half-blood Windsor is not afterall to be allowed join his regiment of squaddies in Iraq or active service. Too many threats - too much danger. read full story / add a comment
