* England looses it completely. The news is dominated by the big brother celeb house racist or not controversy. Record numbers of dumbys email in to complain about the show whose ratings go through the roof. The Channel 4 gerbil lovers and cokehead impersonators must be laughing up their noses at the ludicrous fuss. Even politicians get in on the act asking questions in parliament!
Why anyone should care what a bunch of slags say when they realise they are faced with someone way above the pit the inhabit is beyond me. It is a competition after all and these scrubbers can see 'voted out' looming in the mirror. Even the today program thinks its worth mentioning.

* The BBC has been given lots more money to produce the same rubbish as everyone else on behalf of the licence purchasing public. This licence has to be purchased even if you never watch the BBC's lamentable output. As this is the case how come the ITV, etc don't get a cut. I see no reason the whole lot should be given to an institution completely infiltrated by self-congratulating guardian readers.
What the hell do they do with all the money? Pay themselves inflated and unjustified wages and expenses that's what. They congratulate themselves on having permanent news correspondents across the world who we hear from about once a year. I can do that, give us a posting. I fancy Canada fuck all ever happens there.

* Peter Hain has just noticed the Bush administration is a trifle right-wing and totally useless, that conclusion took him an inordinate long time to arrive at, while he enjoyed the comforts of ministerial life. If it takes him that long to observe the obvious then what the hell is he doing as an MP let alone member of the government. The cheeky f***er should be deselected by his constituency. Next thing we know he'll be announcing that the Berlin wall has come down.
