Liberty of the Press
“The time, is to be hoped, is gone by, when any defence would be necessary of the ‘liberty of the press’ as one of the securities against corrupt or tyrannical government.” When John Stuart Mill wrote that in his essay On Liberty he was immediately contradicted by the introduction of the ‘Government Press... 
This article has been written for you from The Kingfisher, the narrow boat I am currently living on. Although knowing the difficulties of finding wireless internet connection on the River Wey this article has most likely come to you from a quick ‘copy’ and ‘paste’ from my home in Cheam.

Noun. The act of using Twitter to lessen/destroy a company’s reputation It is perplexing to why Twitter has gained so much popularity during this year when the social networking organism formed during 2006.

I cannot describe the series of events to blame for the unfortunate encounter with the hasty village locals. It may have been when I pointed out a beaten track and guided the rest of my family in that direction. I had recognised a lady, called Linda, from one of the local churches at Mevagissey harbour and so it seemed...
