The vision of real politicians squirming from seeing themselves potryed in a bad light warms my heart. The fact that this is happening in Great Britain and that it’s Labor politicos makes me raise an eyebrow or two in surprise. Then you read further and you see the real cause –
“I didn’t mind a little betrayal of socialist ideals,” says Beaton, “but the war was it.”
Still a healthy dose of disrepect of public figures is always a good thing.
Note: I am far from pro-war, but I wonder if the motives had been non-socialist whether this would have reached the airwaves.
