Saddam Hussein sentenced to death
I was in a second hand record fair in Bakewell, Derbyshire when I heard this. Radio 2 announced it to the small council room and just one voice could be heard afterwards... "about bloody time" a man in the corner said, we all looked at him and then turned away.
It's weird that news like that, news it's possible we would have all cheered 10 years ago can now be greated with such ambivolence. Such are the events of the last 5 years that this is no longer a cause for celebration or a reason for outrage... it's just another part of the story.
