Brown really has dug himself into a hole over this embryo business, hasn't he? And, to judge by this, he's still digging. This 'compromise' doesn't resolve anything, does it? Or maybe I'm missing the point...
Maybe he's digging an elephant trap for the elephant in the room (an expression which is suddenly everywhere after decades of wisely keeping itself to itself. No one has satisfactorily traced its source either. Any ideas?)
A blog about, among other things, imaginary ideas - What ifs? and Imagine thats. What if photographs looked nothing like what we see with our eyes? Imagine that the Berlin Wall had never come down. What if we were the punchline of an interminable joke? All contributions welcome.

Is it just me or is there something a bit troubling about digging yourself into a hole about embryos?

It's easy, Malty - it just gets deeper as you go on. A bit like sawing off the branch you're sitting on, only less dramatic.
