Afshin Rattansi goes underground vis–à–vis Britain's new position on the UN Human Rights Council - but as we hear from Human Rights Watch, the country's own track record is less than stellar. England should brace itself for more civil unrest in the new year, as pay discrepancies between the rich and the poor continue to drive people to protest. Plus, heard about the housing crisis in Britain? Blame the golfers!
