I'll just make a general comment about how low politics seems to have fallen (or maybe I'm naive, and it's always been like that). But now it seems you can deliberately spread lies instead of dealing in facts, or lie about political opponents, often helped by a compliant media, and it all gets forgotten when the next lie appears.

 

I've more or less stopped reading most political "stories" in newspapers, because that's too often what they are: stories entirely made up by biased journalists. "The Herald is led to believe...." "An unnamed spokesperson suggested off the record that....."
