What they are planning for their science coverage is also disgusting -
it will probably come direct from some central body of the
megacor****ations, whether done through a Whitehall committee or
wherever. They will be running a whole page on science every day,
pu****ng techno-objectivist-fascism.
It will be interesting (and revolting) to see what big themes they run
with after the relaunch on Monday. As a cultural thing, the relaunch is
probably quite an im****tant move for those who control Britain. Kind of
'bye-bye to whatever passed for left-wingism within New Labourism'...it
does make you want to shudder. How long before they privatise the roads
and the schools get run by Capita? Some people find it easy to ignore,
but in the past week the US authorities have rounded up practically the
entire 'underclass' of a large city and have taken them off to refugee
camps.
The term 'war' comes to mind...
