i m wondering what the bbc thinks of its audience, whether they think we have any intelligence at all. in recent days, reporters on the website, on the news website, have felt it necessary to explain that the cabinet is rishi sunak s group of senior ministers and that inflation is the rate at which prices are rising . given that inflation has been in the news daily for several months now, is it really necessary? where will this end? will they soon be telling us that apples are a crispy green fruit, for example? please, give us some credit for some modicum of intelligence. one of the moves in that government reshuffle was the appointment of lee anderson to the post of deputy chairman of the conservative party.
