I often say that I'd have extreme difficulty keeping my mouth shut if I worked at the Observer. The double-standards, the hyporcrisy, the ghastly self-referential moralizing... just for starters... but my wife then tells me not to be so silly. I wouldn't have got anywhere near a job writing for the Observer/Guardian. You know you were a 'marked man' all the way from Uni, don't you, darling?

Clearly the unofficial 'vetting process' has gotten far worse over the years as the ####ing Thames Valley librals have increasingly embraced... New Fascism.
