Thanks for that Matt D ,interesting read and does show the truth of the matter .
I have never doubted that the press exagerate these things but it has to be said that if these stories are only reported in the press ,with government spokesmen NOT taking the oportunity to respond with the actual facts then they can't be surprised when the great unwashed only believe what's in the currant bun ,or the daily fail .If the government did use right of reply a bit more often and backed it up with hard proof then maybe we would see a bit more accurate reporting from the press[COLOR="Silver"]
