"Conservative leader David Cameron has claimed that BBC Radio 1 encourages knife and gun crime by playing music that glorifies violence. Mr Cameron said the music Radio 1 plays on Saturday night - believed to be a reference to Tim Westwood's hip-hop show, which runs from 9pm-11pm - has contributed to the growing problem of knife and gun crime in the UK. "I would say to Radio 1, do you realise that some of the stuff you play on Saturday nights encourages people to carry guns and knives?" he said last night in a speech to the British Society of Magazine Editors."
Tories are quite mad you know. I submitted the response below:
I cannot say how much I applaud The New Leader’s view of the pernicious broadcaster spreading its filth: Sir Tom Jones and Delilah? Ban it! Old Blue Eyes’ version of Mac The Knife? Chop it! As for that Radio Three, well excuse me but it just encourages the youth of today to duel to the death every time that damn Mascagni and his Cavalieri Rusticana take to the nation’s airwaves.
Right on DC. What’s next … Oedipus Rex and that damn fool Sophocles?
