On the Grapevine

Politics

Cynical reporter: "He says hE'd like the shopping centrE moved around to the top of the cable car. That's a sound scheme.

Cynical editor: ". . . and would need a sound earthquake."

The politics of liberty

Scene: Outside Wellington College. Wellington College old boys are distributing copies of the second edition of Free Press.

First Pupil (member of W.C. 1st XV): "What do you mean Free Press—we're got freedom of expression here already!"

Second Pupil: 'We haven't really you know."

First Pupil: "Shut up or I'll smash you one, you little shit!"
