Weekend links and hiatus.
On the banking crisis and the related fallout:Chick Yog - Brown, Iceland and statecraft

On the US presidential election:
Iain Dale - Why I am declaring for Obama
Michael Tomasky - The verdict on Troopergate

Finally, some odds and sods:

Iain Dale - Twelve inches save my life
Anton Vowl - Look at this bitch, on the Mail's pre-emptive strike against Denise Goldsmith

Catherine Bennett - So teachers must be spies, on the guidance given to teachers involving extremist students
Joan Smith - A terrorist sponger? No, a beneficiary of British fair play
Richard Ingrams - Being in the Met means never having to say sorry
And with that, I'm being dragged away until a week on Tuesday. Toodle pip!
