SIR - Shortly after you kindly published my letter about the increasing absence of democracy in Britain, a friend suggested to me that we have unprecedented coverage of politics in our media.What was I fussing about?
Well, that's true if the subject is an American election, but definitely not so if the subject is Britain in Europe.
Consider that in the week when Parliament was supposedly "debating" yet another vital step in our undemocratic slide into the EU, our media were ignoring that completely and spending millions of pounds covering a US election that is utterly devoid of political principles or policies of any interst to us at all!
BBC? More like bread and circuses!
