The difference between you and I, is that I belong to a generation where children could have stayed up late and watched TV, with no worry about what they saw. The worst may have been a creepy horror movie.

There was self-restraint, and self-control in many things. We need to return to that.

"To be honest, there's a lot that you and I would agree on. Stuff I've complained about in the past includes the marketing of Playboy merchandise to children, the positioning of soft porn men's mags at the tills in WH Smith where they are at a child's-eye level, teenage magazines which discuss sex, and the marketing of age-inappropriate clothes and makeup to pre-teen girls. Like you, I believe all of this stuff contributes to the problems we have in society."

Then what a crying shame that when I spoke about all of those things, on the BBC, when I urged the BBC, and Lesley Douglas herself, to be the ones to start the ball rolling, to bring about change, by playing the powerful songs of our singer songwriters in the folk and acoustic world, to open people's eyes and minds, that you chose not to stand beside me, but to join, and eventually lead, the 'witch hunt' against me., as the BBC themselves referred to it as.

The difference between you and I, is that I will NEVER accept the unacceptable, purely because someone tells me I must.

There are things in life that are fundamentally wrong.

The grooming of our children has been one of them. The willingness of the BBC to join in with that, along with the Dumbing Down process of an entire generation, in fact probably two, has been another.

The only way is UP, not DOWN.
