Too much perspective

One of the little joys we have in life is reading Brian Reade's weekly column in the Mirror, because he is, frankly, the worst columnist in Britain. Not in the Richard Littlejohn/Garry Bushell sense, but in the "and you did full journalistic training, did you?" sense. Today, however, in his oh so sarcastically hilarious critique of Live Earth, he manages a new personal best:

SO MANY old pop groups are reforming it seems like a long round of the game in Never Mind The Buzzcocks where we're shown five pensioners and guess which one used to sing.

Still, there's no disputing that Genesis, The Police and Spinal Tap contributed something that none of the kids could bring to the Live Earth concert. Carbon footprints with walking sticks next to them.


Do you think someone should tell him?
