Ah yes, churnalism......always there when you need something to make you despair at the human race.

Jim Hacker: Don’t tell me about the press. I know exactly who reads the papers: The Daily Mirror is read by people who think they run the country; The Guardian is read by people who think they ought to run the country; The Times is read by people who actually do run the country; The Daily Mail is read by the wives of the people who run the country; The Financial Times is read by people who own the country; The Morning Star is read by people who think the country ought to be run by another country; And the Daily Telegraph is read by people who think it is.
Sir Humphrey: Prime Minister, what about the people who read the Sun?
Bernard Woolley: Sun readers don’t care who runs the country, as long as she’s got big t*ts.

That is oh so true....

Just a pity they left out the Herald and the Courier. :)

It's like kicking a man when he's down, but the biggest mistake Brown has made was being over eager to accept the poisoned chalice that was offered to him last year. Blair got out because he knew everything was going to go "tits-up" (to extend the use of the word), but Brown should have known that!

To get back on thread, could anyone see a scenario where Moslem countries would bend over backwards to accomodate and pander to a Christian minority by playing down and concealing their religious rites and ceremonies in order not to offend them?
