Re: So this is what TM is lining us up for!!!
Looks like anything reported by other than the Mail is suspect to some.We all have bias, you have to weigh other's bias when reading news, bias can be the non reporting of news, just because an out of favour source reports something, doesn't make it wrong, check it elsewhere...............do yourself a favour you are sitting at a machine that covers most every source for information ever, you only have to check and cross check using your own life experience to weed the rubbish out.

Fake news is nothing new, newspapers have been doing it for years.

Even TM has promised to rein in the money grabbing energy companies - so what's your excuse now???

It's not fake news we should be worried about, it's no news or fluffy distractions from more serious matters which are buried. For example at the moment there is a radio silence on many aspects of the election. All we have heard on Tory policy recently is that Theresa May said boys and girls have special jobs at home, and fox hunting should be reinstated. There's still nothing specific about Tory brexit plans.Live radio shows such as LBC have become a major source of real news because their interviewers broadcast slip ups by politicians on air. No editing or political colouring in.

They were permanently on strike against themselves.
I look forward to the day when the Labour party is dead and buried and their ruling unions have shrivelled up due to lack of any political clout.
As people become more worldly wise, they are beginning to see the sense in this.
