Lord Chancellor's Morris

Typical agressive article from the beeb and shows usual lack of research. "Barmpton" cotswold style.

Offending article http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/6230060.stm

It's already posted here .

Lord Falconer's memo giving permission also notes that 'Morris dancing is currently one of the Icons of England on the Department of Culture, Media and Sport site'.

Good grief, is it?

Well, what's to complain about?

So what if they can't spell Bampton? It's that Oxfordshire accent y'know.

You know what they say about publicity . . .
