Nothing illustrates the BBC mindset and agenda than the BBC 'the record europe' programme, as the eurotrash commissars get ready to pack up ready for the elections, the progamme was about the vote on the banning of seal pruducts, the Tories were portrayed as isolated and out of touch by 'supporting' the trade, the inuit peoples who will bear the brunt were thrown some crumbs and it was made clear thay should be grateful!

"I haven't been able to read your brilliant screenplay yet, but I'll let you known immediately, when I get a round tuit."
"Billy was always late with his TCP reports - he knew it pissed off his boss, and all the accounting drones, but something always prevented him from getting a round tuit before the deadline".
