The left controls the press in England

Nonsense. The Telegraph is and always has been conservative, for instance, and is the biggest selling broadsheet.

I dont consider the "conservative" party to be conservative - at least not since Thatcher.

They and the Labor party are ready to sell out the entire country to the PC. London will be mostly "minority" by 2010.

Reminds me of a nature scene I came across two weeks ago while travelling along a BLM road through the Great Salt Lake Desert. About ten feet off to the side of the road I saw the most magnificent golden eagle I have ever seen, tearing apart a jackrabbit with skill and grace. All the while a squawking magpie dived and swooped and trying to drive off the eagle. The eagle simply ignored the magpie until it had finished its meal. Then the eagle unfolded its enormous wings and rose powerfully skyward on the wind while the now-terrified magpie drew away and hid in juniper tree until the dangerous moment was past.

The British press are a gaggle of noisy magpies.
