There's still the BBC nero ... at least there is now. Whether the BBC online service will still be available under a Murdoch-obeying Cameron government is another matter

Cameron! . . who's he ?

Speaking of clowns, the other one , Andrew Neil, was saying that news items in papers cost a lot of money to obtain so PC users should have to stump up too.

BBC.co.uk is much better that all the murdoch press put together anyway.

I hope Cameron doesn't screw it up!

Would that be the same Andrew Neil who (when editor of the Times) paid out tens of thousands of £ to buy the Hitler Diaries without checking properly if they were genuine or not
