Normalisation! definitly.
PMs question time, live at the moment. Bliar kicks off the session by saying 'sorry to say three more Brit servicemen killed etc etc, gives names and says we are very proud of them' Lots of Neighing and Baa's from the house (i hadn't even heard this bit of news). First MP stands up to offer a question, says 'i back up what the PM just said, now about you promising to minimise queues in the NHS'!
Next MP stands up' Prime Minister do you think it is inappropriate that there may be racist comments being broadcast on Celebrity Big Brother'
The MPs who make up the UK Kindergarten are not even on the same planet let alone working for this country.
Meanwhile, during these precedings, despite the death of servicemen the BBC have a big red 'BREAKING NEWS - Celebrity Big Brother' strapline saying 'Gordon Brown says we are proud to be tolerant and fair'!!
Normalisation? sadly yes!
Insanity and out of touch with real issues(both the MPs and the BBC) yes!
