[two issues] well, i thought they were interesting anyway

How can I run blog round-ups on Wednesdays and Sundays when there's too much happening in between? Get yourself over to the P-G for as neat a piece of logic on the Swiss asylum thing as you'd hope to see: in particular, the UNHCR is frothing at the mouth at the suggestion that those wishing to claim asylum need to be able to show passports. Once you're done there, skip across to Clive Davis and the issue which Stephen Pollard himself is taking issue with : We should consider 'general well-being' as well as gross domestic product when measuring national success; big business has responsibilities to society as well as duties to shareholders; public-sector workers deserve respect; sometimes private enterprise might not have all the answers in public-sector reform; globalisation has losers as well as winners; kids in hooded tops aren't all bad.
