First we have riots outside the Queen's window
Extra police are being drafted into the Windsor area today after three nights of violent clashes between white and Asian youths.
Gangs have fought battles in the streets using baseball bats and pitchforks. A Muslim-run dairy which wants to build a mosque was petrol bombed.
Dozens of officers have been deployed to stop and search youths and mounted police are being brought in.
and then there is the case of the overly particular bobby
Sir Ian Blair, the Metropolitan police commissioner, last night ordered an urgent review of a policy that allows officers to refuse certain duties on moral grounds after a decision to excuse a Muslim policeman from guarding the Israeli embassy.
and on top of all this the Mau Maus are getting into the "where's my apology racket"
Veterans of the Mau Mau - who fought a guerrilla war with their colonial masters - are demanding an apology and an out-of-court financial settlement.
Tens of thousands of Mau Mau fighters were killed or imprisoned in camps.
"Many are in their 70s and 80s and would like to see reparations before they die," lawyer Martyn Day said.
I said the British Isles, so lets not leave out Ireland where we have an article on "hatred" which just happens to leave out the... well... hatred.
