An email gently chides me for having used a singular verb with "media".
But as the American Civil War effected the transition from "the United States are" to "the United States is", so we now have a single media bloc.
That bloc is so completely an arm of the State that the National Editor of ITV News has today moved to become Director of Strategic Communications at the Treasury.
Does this kind of thing happen in other advanced democracies? On what basis can the country where it does happen be called either advanced or a democracy?
Even so, let nothing you dismay. The Budget of March 2020 has ended the era that began with the Budget of December 1976. The Centre is the think tank for this new era. Please give generously.
