my personal view is that t.v and papers for that in the u.k are guided into what they let us know ,and for a long time we have been fed what the government think we should or should not know .in other words a propaganda or crowd control media .shades of george orwell .
hence the smoking ban ,they knew this would close down lots of pubs and working mens clubs ,(meeting places) large industry has been allowed to disappear another meeting place for working class men .they would rather the common populace was sat at home being fed propaganda on state sponsored t.v
just my own point of view but is it far from the truth ,i knew the farmer that organised the fuel protests and his brother personally , i also know for fact that the fuel protests fizzled out because he had a visit from the expression was (men in grey suits ) .the warning whatever it was had the desired effect the protest stopped and he later became a mp before his untimely death .hmmmmmm
