The mists of Murdoch

     In the Mists of Murdoch, there are some hidden truths.  One is that the Italian people managed  to overcome the near monopoly of the media, and opposition from the politicians to mount an extraordinary and brilliant people to people campaign against nuclear power and for the public ownership of water.
     It is up to the people of Britain to say what they think should happen about nuclear power.  According to a piece I read in the Guardian, God bless them,  around 51 per cent of  the people in the U.K.voted against nuclear power recently. I think I found reference to another poll somewhere, which was 57%. .
     Surely this is the time for a referendum, if ever there was one. We are not represented in Parliament.  The Liberal Democrats, in case they have forgotten, were voted for by people who believed them when they said that they were against nuclear power before the election.
     However horrible and morally outrageous as the News of the World and some other papers  reporting methods have been, I assume that they told the truth in some of  these issues. However,  I think that the recently uncovered emails revealing  the Government's handling of the facts after Fukushima, hardly show a government committed to the truthful reporting of massively important facts to the people.
     Whatever the outcome of the Murdoch issue, I sincerely hope any inquiry will not be used for parliament to grab more protection from the truth for itself.
     I'm far from perfect, but I don't think any one of us has the right to leave this nuclear legacy to the coming generations.  Perhaps it's about time for the government to ask themselves whom they really represent..  It's not to late ...yet.
