    I found plenty where Times and Torygraph were mentioned e.g. looking up footballers.

    Wikipedia uses The Times and The Torygraph as references so the guy is talking bull. They clearly don't like using tabloids which The Fail is.

    So a guy who left the company nearly 20 years ago, is slagging it off. Still bitter after all that time?

    And you think I should have heard of him why exactly? Or do you think I should know every unimportant and insignificant person in the world?

    How has "lefty" become a slur?

    In the 40 and 50's (the "Glory years!" eh?) , it was Righty that was the slur. Nationalism, Racism, Greed and Social injustice were the wrongs in the world. Now its the rights.. pardon the pun.
