During a discussion on BBC Radio Bristol about a parliamentary debate yesterday (3 December 2001), British Labour Party Culture Minister Kim Howells said he "couldn't think of anything worse than sitting in a pub listening to three folk singers from Somerset". What a disgusting state of affairs that a Labour Minister - or any - should be so ignorant, dismissive and insulting of his cultural heritage. Could you imagine the reaction if this had been said in Ireland? Spain? etc.. Complaints, please, to House of Commons, London.
