Here are the Blogs in the Mary Jackson category. Thursday, 16 May 2013
Huge hat tip to Christina for discovering Defend the Modern World, a serious blog with a light touch. As the Australian rape victim found in Dubai, the trappings of Western life do not make Muslims Western, and the blogger explains why brilliantly in this post (my emphasis):

"Vulgar, vulgar, vulgar," said the Queen's private secretary, Lord Charteris, of Sarah, Duchess of York. It might with more justice be said of Dubai.

Why do politicians use business jargon, asks Sally Davies. From the BBC, whose bloated management ought to read it:
