Hands Off the BBC

Abstract

The shops are full and there is no Stasi and, indeed, we have no Wall. But this Government is becoming more and more authoritarian as the years drift by, similar to that which pertained in the German Democratic Republic in the years leading up to 1989. The view that it is prepared to stoop to almost any lengths to destroy those which it sees as in any way oppositional now seems a little more credible, does it not? Or, indeed, blindingly bloody obvious.
