How typical of the smug over-paid John Humphrey’s of the BBC's Radio Four's Today programme, June 10, to make a joke of the cruel practice of keeping primates as pets, many in locked up cages and or taken from the wild, to be seen as just another object to be use or abused, as those hard working animal charities are familiar with, when such animals belong in the wild which we should be doing more to protect.
Yet the presenter will get hysterical if anyone dare point out a pertinent fact or ask a pertinent question about things such as the work shy, and use his bias and selective journalism to divert attention away from the facts, and all with public money.
Surely they should not be allowed to use/abuse public funding to promote their pet views and causes?
