    Propaganda - schnell

    "What is a hung parliament?"

    Ever feel like this is a foregone conclusion?

    Cast your votes in vein people.

    I'm getting cynical and suspicious about this voting business too. When was the democracy vote? Were we asked? What if we collectively wish to be ruled by a dictator for a change? How can we vote for that? The only choice we get is democracy.

      I think you are being cute, but am too thick to understand

              I think you meant BBC News - Q&A: What is a hung parliament? - although I'm not sure why a news outlet addressing such a question should be described as propaganda

              At least the Beeb go into some detail in explaining the term and putting it in context, unlike the Telegraph's pathetic three sentences and a big picture.

                I am glad they snuck in that bit about 1996 (Ulster's day in the sun). All the other papers would have you believe we haven't had a hung parliament for donkeys years.

                    The Telegraph is pretty dire these days, what with blatant product placement, articles lacking a picture, and (my particular bugbear) an auto-refreshing main page.

                    Only last week there was an item about a rare insect that had just been discovered, and no picture of it FFS, and that happens all the time.

                    And why did this article in today's online edition have to be about Blackberries specifically?
