Thank you for ten glorious years. From Backlisted I have found things I didn’t know about, learned to love things I didn’t know I could love, and very occasionally I have sworn at you all for your damn fool opinions. Who could ask for more.

The 'huh, SOMEONE didn't fund this properly?' or the 'wow, that trend has gone unchecked' or 'the public finances are in a mess, for some reason' stuff is annoying, but at least these are actual problems. Getting as much life out of the old Bakerloo trains however, was the right call!

well… yes, but that’s not the same thing as being an “organ of propaganda”. And it’s one thing to hold the BBC to it’s own editorial standards, and another to deny that it has those standards, or to imply that others have better (less propagandist) ones.

Same.

The world divides into those who want to be told why they might be wrong, and those who want to be told why they are right.

“If I agree with it, it’s not propaganda.”

Yes, this is my centrist dad opinion, to which I say: so f***ing what.

Of course it’s not neutral and impartial item by item, day to day. But it _seeks_to be. And what other media outlet can say the same?

Goswell Road too, near my office.

Just… ecstatic.
