Hard to beat the BBC for awfulness and bias.

I certainly share Garrick's jaundiced view of the Post's so-called cartoonist, Murdoch. Can't draw and is in the same woke, racist mould as the paper's journalists and opinion-mongers. A match made in newspaper hell for all!

I don't really agree with the two participants about not voting. Sure it is hard for many of us to find someone suitable to vote for, but we simply have to vote for the best option available. We would probably cry "foul" if we were denied the right to vote wouldn't we? I think that's a bit arrogant, as much as I admire Tremain.

We take things like voting and education too much for granted in this country. Easy come, easy go. Some people around the world have died in the struggle to get the right to vote and/or be educated
