THE LAST DITCH
This is not a point of view you are likely to see put across on the BBC or Channel 4 any time soon. You can see and hear it all the time on News Corporation's Fox News network in the USA. Balanced budgets, sound money, economic progress by hard work?! Such shocking ideas must never take hold here!

Peter Hitchens once described the BBC as being like the Medieval Chuch in terms of it’s influence over society. It will use it whole influence to prevent it’s position of dominance from being challenged. We face a huge problem with the power of the liberal BBC in the UK, and until we destroy the organisation we will always find it very hard for our views to gain a fair hearing. Murdoch is by no means a saint or our saviour, but the liberal media in Britain certainly need to have their dominance challenged.

Yes, it’s remarkable that on the ‘balanced’ BBC you simply never hear these opinions expressed or allowed. One drone commentator suggested Italy’s problems stemmed from the lack of a stimulus package from the government!

Tom is a retired international lawyer. He was a partner in a City of London law firm and spent almost twenty years abroad serving clients from all over the world.
Returning to London on retirement in 2011, he was dismayed to discover how much liberty had been lost in the UK while he was away.
He’s a classical liberal (libertarian, if you must) who, like his illustrious namesake, considers that
“…government even in its best state is but a necessary evil; in its worst state an intolerable one.”
