Thank you^^

Ageing and Death are issues the British media sees as Taboo, which is strnage given that both are issues which happen to everybody.

All the TV media, particularly the BBC, has a left wing bias. All the 'soaps', discussion programmes etc have the same unpatriotic PC bias. The only serious newspapers that don't have a left wing bias, are, The Daily Mail - The Telegraph - The Express. Some of the recent legislation created by this government has restricted freedom of speech, eg, incitement to racial and religious hatred. comments about 'Gays' etc. People are free to liable or slander people, but they run the risk of being sued. Increasingly, there is a compensation culture which encourages people to look for someone to blame when something goes wrong, instead of taking personal responsibility. This is encouraged by the lawyers and the increasingly 'liberal courts'. Anyone who tries to discuss 'immigration' is branded a racist by the left wingers I have referred to above.

So, I would say that, in general terms, this government is increasingly curtailing our freedoms because of its nannying, and controlling attitude.

No news media will not report on the death toll from religion killing. UK or anywhere else. Before they go on the air , the newscasters are told, "Here's what you're going to tell them tonight".

Self lack of knowledge in problems solving.
So hide it under the rug while getting paid for it.
