Dear Orkney News,

“Ooh, Ooh. Look, look, it’s a dead cat”. Can I be alone in thinking that journalism in the UK is a hollowed out husk.

The P.M. as good as announced that the Cambo field will go ahead, but all that was reported was a second class quip describing Margaret Thatcher as an accidental environmentalist.

“Forget locking up journo’s for 14 years for embarrassing the UK government, UK “professional” journalism should be expiring from shame.
