Unfortunately could just be the average representation for people in street however.
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

Yesterday, for example, a whole string of people in some high street in England all saying that nurses should be paid a lot more. Not one challenge such as "how much should they be paid?" or "how would that be funded?" or "would you be happy to pay a couple of hundred more in tax a month to make it happen, then a couple of hundred more for the train drivers, teachers etc etc?"

And another thing.... In its World Cup coverage, why does the BBC show bias towards one team in its choice of pundits? Today for example, 2 former Wales players and a Welsh presenter plus a German. No Iranian. Belgium v Canada - a Belgian (V Kompany), no Canadian etc

Or they could ask if people want their kids taught by monkeys or by professionals? Or if the train companies could have used profits to pay workers, instead of paying dividends? Or if they could sack a whole layer of management in the NHS and no one would notice? It goes both ways - they're not quite on the side you may think. They still need the licence fee.

No Iranian. Belgium v Canada - a Belgian (V Kompany), no Canadian etc the Serbia team are mostly straight white men. That's like Kryptonite to the BBC. Probably something similar with Canada and so Vincent Kompany was more acceptable. And if the Poland team starts winning all their games ? just watch the BBC clambering around to find a female LGBT pundit from Krakow. its amazing how our license fee is paying for an overtly racist/misanthropist organisation.

My point, of course, was to agree with Midlands in saying that they always ask the thickest looking people they can find, and then to point out that they ask a hopelessly one-dimensional question.
