Having a brand new blisteringly fast computer for my birthday means I can start processing and uploading video again.
Here as a starter for 10, is a BBC South Today report from April 17, 2009 by Peter Henley on the use of the web, video and Twitter for campaigning, featuring the successful Save Our Loos campaign we ran in Alresford in the first half of 2009.

Last Sunday, I went up to Milestones in Basingstoke to take part in the BBC South edition of the Politics Show.
If you missed it, it’s still available on the iPlayer.
The relevant section starts here.
It’s not available on the iPlayer anymore, but I have finally managed to upload it here.

Just over a week ago, I took a break from our one week holiday and went to the ITV Millbank studios to record an episode of ‘The Last Word’ for ITV Meridian. Â The whole thing was shot in half an hour – we discussed Damian Green, the economy and the Queen’s Speech – and the attached is the result!

Winchester had a wonderfully gentle atmosphere on Friday evening.
Around 10,000 people (according to the Echo) were in the centre for the Winchester Passion.
The evening started at Oram’s Arbour and then moved to the Great Hall, followed by the Law Courts, then the High Street and Butter Cross, and finally the west end of the Cathedral.
David Spender has some great photographs of the event – and has set up a Flickr group for the Passion to pull together everyone else’s as well.
The following video (shot on a digital camera at quite some distance) is not great quality, but it does give a sense of the atmosphere outside the cathedral during the crucifixion scene.
A very good report from Briony Leyland on the threat to Winchester’s Textile Conservation Centre.
What’s becoming increasingly clear is that the Government are flunking their responsibilities here. Ian Pearson’s answer to a question that Mark asked in Parliament makes this particularly clear.
But it’s probably best to let the report speak for itself!
