tree_and_leafI hate Alexander Chancellor.
Gosh, Mr Chancellor, you don't think that the greater admiration of the general public for Teddy and the other Kennedies than for Signor Berlusconi might also have something to do with the fact that, for instance, Edward Kennedy was an excellent senator and a tireless campaigner for health reform, rather than... what has Berlusconi done, actually, other than keep getting re-elected, altering the law in order to avoid criminal charges, and hanging about with young women? Not just down to Signora Berlusconi being a Bad Wife (or is it the Kennedy wives being doormats? I can't quite work out what he thinks).
The second piece, about celebrities and anti-depressants also makes me want to bite someone.
... thus far, the comments are, by CiF standards, quite sane. But only by CiF standards.
