British Justice Secretary Jack Straw will veto release of FOIA'd minutes on Iraq from 2003; says it will 'damage' 'democracy'; i.e., if the public gets proof that Tony Bliar lied the UK into the Iraq War, the Labor Party will be politically damaged. Tory Dominic Grieve backs his decision, but says it leaves "overwhelming case" for full review (with no public disclosure?).

"Rob Kall's Bottom-Up: Tapping the Power of the Connection Revolution takes a very holistic view of bottom-up thinking and action, from changes in our psychology to our systems of work, living and governance. As someone who's been working to make bottom-up economics a reality for over 30 years, this book reinforces the need for and potential of redirecting our priorities-- and resources--from the few at the top to the many at the bottom."

Anthony Flaccavento, author of Building a Healthy Economy from the Bottom Up
