The standard of journalism I will just have to put up with

Last Saturday’s article in the Telegraph, ‘On the campaign trail with Esther Rantzen‘, looks to me to be a model of how I expect many journalists will cover the election campaign in Luton South. It has all the elements I’m afraid I am going to have to get used to:

• A concentration on Esther Rantzen to the exclusion of anything else
• The obligatory references to funny shaped vegetables
• The obligatory insults to Luton
• A superficial understanding of the political realities in the town
• No mention of the Liberal Democrats
• No discussion of anything of actual substance whatsoever

Very, very irritating.
