Norm reminds us that it's an important day in the battle over the AUT's policy on Israel:
The story of Israel and the Palestinians is a story of two nations, each with its own legitimate claim to self-determination within its own state, with injustices committed by Israel, and ongoing, against the Palestinians, but also with a denial of Israel's very right to existence from day one and a decades-long war against it, including, most recently, a campaign of murder against its civilians. Some of the boycotters are untroubled by this other side of the story, because they simply don't allow that there is one.
UPDATE: Melanie Phillips takes issue with the Today programme's scene-setter.
UPDATE II: Good news. Perhaps Sue Blackwell will now boycott her own union.
