Or as Charlie Booker put it...IIRCOriginally posted by Pogle View PostAnd I agree with Tony Benn and Baggy.
"Newspapers are becoming increasingly meaningless as the masses pick up their news from other more modern sources. As their circulation falls they are reduced to filling their tired little platforms with celebrity news, gossip, and campaigns against things, television comedy being the latest target."The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
