BBC History

Melanie Phillips ponders:

One day, our descendants may look back on the insanity of the west at this time and conclude that the BBC had much to answer for. That is, of course, if there is still a west, which the BBC world view is doing so much to undermine.

 - Effectively, yes.

Even if then never watched their channels?

 - 'fraid so.

Bwahahahahaha.
