This is one time and one area where the blogs cannot compete ... the global news system
provides the coverage and there is very little, sensibly, that we can add – other than our profound sympathies and admiration for how the ever-resourceful Japanese are already getting to grips with their new crisis.
Further comment might be inappropriate, but a thread is open on the comments to monitor further developments. However, we need to be aware of the Jo Moore effect - not least with the Lib-Dim springfest - and the
financial effects also bear watching.
