I know who I'd put in front of the firing squad, and they would need lots of bullets, not just one. The trouble is that one newspaper (or other media organistion) will NEVER criticise another; that is a serious failing in our society.

To say he cannot play it out in private is tantamount to forbidding him <i>any</i> fantasy life.

I was amused he wrote back to Mercedes and reminded them that they had a certain role in the Nazi war machine so having a go at him was a tad hypocritical at best. Couldn’t agree more.
