Today’s the day the new United Kingdom Supreme Court [1], the replacement for the House of Lords, begins operation [2]. (What’s with the brown [3]? Ugh.) And, because this is the age it is, the new institution’s familiar, the blog, is born along with it.
The UKSCblog [4] (I’m not liking uk-suk as the way to say the new court) is designed frankly as a “mirror” [5]of the American SCOTUS blog.
I’ve taken a quick look and like what I see — with the exception that, curiously, the URL remains fixed as www.ukscblog.com whether you’re on the “home,” “about,” “archive” or, indeed, an entry page. There’s no permanent URL or link to one for posts that I can see. I might be missing something, of course, but if I am it’s a case of bad design, whatever else it might say about my failing eyesight.
