Thank you very much for inviting me. And – to the immigration authorities – thank you for letting me into this country. It is always a pleasure to cross a border without being sent back on the first plane.

Today, the dearest of our many freedoms is under attack all throughout Europe. Free speech is no longer a given. What we once considered a natural element of our existence, our birth right, is now something we once again have to battle for.

Arsenal have had a tough season; shock defeats to newly promoted teams Hull and Stoke plus a myriad of injuries dented their confidence and Premier League title hopes. With that said they've improved in recent games and the recovery of Croatia striker Eduardo the team certainly has a solid chance of progressing to the next round over their Italian rivals Roma who have also had an indifferent season.

The San Siro will host the first leg of the game between two football giants and Champions of their respective countries. Inter Milan face Manchester United – current champions of England, Europe and the World. Both teams are in great form having both recently beat their closest rivals and both sitting comfortably at the tops of their domestic leagues. Inter Milan may have José Mourinho at the helm and an in-form Zlatan Ibrahimović but I just don't think it will be enough to beat Manchester United – especially with the attacking prowess of Cristiano Ronaldo, Wayne Rooney, Dimitar Berbatov and Carlos Tévez.

Thank you for inviting me. Thank you Lord Pearson and Lady Cox for showing Fitna, and for your gracious invitation. While others look away, you, seem to understand the true tradition of your country, and a flag that still stands for freedom.

This is no ordinary place. This is not just one of England’s tourist attractions. This is a sacred place. This is the mother of all Parliaments, and I am deeply humbled to speak before you.

England did field a squad lacking depth with Wayne Rooney and Steven Gerrard missing from the team but it's hard to take anything away from the Spanish victory. Agbonlahor and Heskey seemed out of their depth with Spain doing well to cut the connection between the English midfield and strikers making any attacking play from England improvised and rushed with possession more often than not going straight back to Spain. On the other hand Spain controlled the game with confident passing, high possession and patience – something that England lacked.

Spain's first goal was a show of individual brilliance by David Villa who received the ball from a wayward pass by Jagielka to the feet of Xabi who accurately supplied a great ball to Villa who did the rest to leave the ball in the back of the England net. Llorente's header from Xavi's fine free kick sealed the deal for Spain who commanded much of the play.

Carol Bartz is the former Autodesk CEO a company that she was at the helm of for 14 years. Being 60 and along with her previous experience in software I’m not convinced that she can turn Yahoo! around to become competitive with Microsoft and Google.

YHOO went down sharply upon hearing the reports showing little confidence in the Yahoo! board’s decision to appoint Carol Bartz.
