The justice secretary is to seek the sacking of the chair of the body responsible for investigating alleged miscarriages of justice following the publication of a review into the case of Andrew Malkinson.

The CCRC should have dealt with this much better but their role is cleaning up CPS miscarriages, why no criticism of the CPS and police who caused this in the first place? They had all of the evidence so it would have been pretty obvious it was unsafe.

Some worldwide IT shit going down...

My employer isn't reporting any issues, but I think that's because the gerbil that powers our IT systems via a wheel in the cage hasn't woken up yet.

Crikey. Looks like the Y2K bug has turned up late. :shock:

Maybe someone pulled the wrong plug out at an AWS data centre.

There's a cleaner somewhere, currently running a vacuum cleaner around, thinking 'Why did I never think to plug it in here before?'

Just looked at the flight radar thing. Gatwick seems to be working as per normal. Although there's a lot of stuff on the ground planes seem to be coming and going pretty regularly.
