It’s a question of priority, of course, but is there anybody out there who REALLY thinks that a report by the leftist quango headed by Trevor Philips merits the prime time slot on “Today”? Philips was spouting the usual lefty clap trap about “unfairness” and the BBC earnestly carries the headlines from the reports that transgendered students “said” they were bullied and that Pakistani babies were twice as likely to die in the first year as white babies. Oh, and that pesky gender trap has still not closed. I thought Humphyrs was reasonably robust with Philips but towards the end of the interview this seemed to melt and the bon homie appeared. Philips is a greivance-monger whose utopian fantasies are indulged rather than critiqued.  The BBC is running a week long series of items on “fairness” – it seems to me that this has the pre-designed aim to ensure that whatever the Coalition does is viewed as “unfair”
