The thing is..if you watch and monitor the news round the clock it's always going to be doom, gloom and outrage in the UK. If the news were censored and you only heard positive stuff you would wonder what the hell was going on. We Brits are used to complaining, whingeing and having lots of choice. Any form of "deprivation" or "restriction" is guaranteed to whip up outrage but the majority of us just carry on and cope. That's not very newsworthy though.
