That Jenkins article
Good grief, what a load of guff.
"At 10 o’clock we were denied important news - of Anjem Choudary’s conviction, of swingeing tax fines and of possible “special status” for Britain outside the EU. Instead we had to sit for an hour and a half, waiting for three minutes of BBC pandemonium as British cyclists yet again pedalled fast."
Yes, well all sport can be reduced to 'chasing a pig bladder' style descriptives - but it's meaningless.
And the quaint idea that anyone was 'denied important news' (from several hours earlier of course) because it wasn't on BBC1 at an appointed time is about as disingenuous and ridiculous as it gets.
Also Hitler.
Meanwhile... "I have intermittently enjoyed the Olympics on television."
Oh shut the f**k up. Watch it or don't. Actually, frankly, don't watch any sport ever because if you are going to bring Government investment or social disparity in to the discussion, then there are no winners, ever.
Olympics, World Cups, European Championships... none of them are feeding or clothing the poor. Ban all sport. Don't pick and choose, Jenkins.
