Short answer is – of course it is. Even with its pretty Tory agenda. Mostly because it is free to air. Then a major addition – or in fact subtraction – no adverts! themselves so pro- consumption and damaging to both the environment and the alleged desire of us all to ‘consume’. It is also… Read more
