...and the insular nature of the UK media. Not The Guardian's finest hour. They did a huge rave portrait of big Si, followed by two very biased columns. They treated the election like a football match where they were behind the English guy. Quite moronic really. My guess is that The Guardian people make a virtue out of not reading the TLS.
