We chatted about:

  • Was Alan Johnson right to sack David Nutt for giving the ‘wrong’ advice on drugs?
  • Conservative bloggers seem to be out of step with the Conservative party leadership over Climate Change – but which of them is closer to the grassroots?
  • Lord Mandelson has detailed his ‘three strikes’ policy for illegal file sharers, but do his proposals stack up?
  • And lastly, do we think Tony Blair will become President of the EU Council? For that matter, do we think he should?
