The awakening of liberal England..by John Pilger

[dudeness]

Ye are many, they are few. Millions have broken their customary silence to rescue the noble ideas of freedom and democracy from Tony Blair's diminishing court. By John Pilger

An epic shame and silence covers much of liberal England. Shame and silence are present in a political theatre of frenetic activity, with actors running on and off the national stage, uttering their fables and denials and minor revelations, as in Ibsen's Enemy of the People. From the media gallery, there is a cryptic gesturing at the truth, so that official culpability is minimised; this is known at the BBC as objectivity.
