“Why I left the left” Melanie Phillips on why she left the Guardian ( A Leftist Communist Rag)

BCF : Former Guardian writer Melanie Phillips describes her journey from "fantasy to reality" on why she left the political left. Phillips is interviewed by The Sun's Steven Edginton for the weekly series of 'Burning Questions'. Phillips describes her experiences as a British jew, dealing with antisemitism and where the problems of the left come from.

Stephen Edginton does a very good job in these interviews. He is obviously very bright and well-informed, but he is wise enough not to make the mistake which so many interviewers make, of thinking that his input and opinions are of equal weight and value. He always gives his interviewees ample space to express themselves. I like this young man. He asks great questions, doesn't continually interrupt and understands the issues. He is a credit to his generation.

Who needs to stockpile on toilet roll when we have the Guardian!!!
