Obituary: Professor G.A. Cohen; a proponent of non bullshit Marxism. G.A. Cohen by Jane O'Grady. Political philosopher who produced a revolutionary reinterpretation of Marxist theory.

How do you solve a problem like Prince Harry? A political and media feeding frenzy is brewing over the News of the World's scoop of an army video of Prince Harry using racist language. Clearly, his stupid comments will embarrass Harry, the Army and the Royal Family. The Prince has apologised, though suggesting that 'our little Paki friend' was being used affectionately as a nic...

Isn't it strange that we have heard nothing in recent weeks from that scourge of political sleaze, John Mann MP. He's the rent-a-quote who the media wheelout whenever there is an example of a Tory in trouble. Strangely, he's been silent on Jacqui Smith, Tony McNulty, Nigel Griffiths and now Harry Cohen.
