This week, two specific events made me think a little: 1) Barack Obama speech; and 2) dinner with a senior commercial person from a newspaper. – Why are we fighting in Iraq?
– Why are we happy in the UK to pay for the BBC? And particularly the parts of the BBC where it’s competing with commercial organisations. BBC1, Radio5 live, BBCOnline – I’m looking at you guys.
– Why are racist slurs on a football pitch forgiven after a fine / few weeks off?
I can’t seem to get Iraq out of my head. I guess, in a democracy, that’s absolutely a good thing.
