[Humphrey Hacker]

I’ve often thought if budgets were better than bbc parliament should become bbc politics and then show things like this press conference then after wards they could have representatives across the political divide then discussing it afterwards that way you’d have the best of both worlds, the press conference would be shown plus it could be discussed and opposing views given for balance. You could then bring back a version of the news multi-screen but instead it has live feeds from the different parliaments or select committees. Ideal world stuff of course.

There's that much of an overlap between "news", "politics" and "parliament nowadays that it's become a gestalt entity especially when it comes to tv coverage.

The only thing we can do is use our discernment and think "what is this". You can try and separate them if you want to but to be honest you'd have a better chance of discovering the truth behind the TVS Archive!
