obsequious interview with former PM John Major requires comment.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  John Major now sits on the board of the 
Carlyle Group whose interests lie in the US armed forces destroying a countries 
infrastructure using weapons supplied by the Carlyle Group of companies.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  They then bid under Bush’s American need 
only apply policy to rebuild that said country.<SPAN 
style="mso-spacerun: yes">  Unfortunately they have not yet found 
out how to bring the dead from these conflicts back to 
life.

<SPAN

Al Capone look small beer yet we had John Major being treated as a paragon of 
virtue and being allowed to use airtime to promote policies that are to the 
benefit the Carlyle Group.  Frost is 
a pale shadow of his former self, in the past he would have done his research 
and crucified Major for acting as bagman for this company.
