 Kate Godfrey wrote a great piece recently about the background to the Stop the War (STW) coalition which Caroline Lucas from the Green Party has just left.

 Now STW has a complex history, but essentially it is a front organisation for various leftist groups including the Socialist Workers Party (SWP) which self-destructed recently over serious rape allegations against a leading 'comrade' that were dealt with in-house by a committee in preference to involving the police. 

 Says it all really, bonkers as can be, but Kate Godfrey (a Labour activist) saves her best for last when she asks at the end of her piece:

Here's what HFW has to say on the subjecy -  I think I'll contact Hugh - and ask if he'll join the TAPAS campaign. "Vermin with wings? Chicken of the sea? Or just an opportunity missed?" "First and foremost, before we all go on a mad seagull killing frenzy. In the U.K it is against the law to kill seagulls or interfere with their nests under the countryside and wildlife act. Some Councils are allowed to cull them however, and usually do this by either poisoning or shooting them. How to catch your seagull. Remember this is against the law in the U.K. I don't want the Men in Blue knocking at the door because someone said that Foodimum told them it was okay to catch and eat seagulls. It isn't... P
