Royston’s ‘lie’ went round the world, before the truth in it got its boots on
Not because I did anything bad towards him during the election. I didn't. I quite enjoyed the way his refusal to go on current affairs programmes maddened the interviewers on those programmes. He offered them a new menu. Instead of getting ratty with politicians who refuse to respond to their questions, they could get ratty with a politician who refused to respond to their invitations. And ratty they really got.
It could be suggested, of course, that instead of getting personally outraged over one cheeky chappie refusing to extend his head for their chopper, it would suit media interrogators better to expose Gerry Adams' mesmerizing drone of meaningless phrases for what it is and stop him and his younger female clones from serving it up on every media occasion.
