Private Eye has been talking about this for over a year. The Page 94 podcast gives a very good account.



Absolutely. Like so many things, Private Eye is ahead of the curve in its reporting. Another podcast worth a mention is James O'Brien's recent Full Disclosure interview with Grenfell survivor Edward Daffern. Horrifying to hear how the residents were treated before, during and after the tragedy, and how predictable the whole thing was.


Worth remembering Private Eye are biased towards insinuating institutional corruption, leading to their support of Wakefield against the pharmas in the MMR scandal.

They are generally good, but they aren't immune from bias and it still pays to be critical.


Institutional corruption is such a powerful threat to humans that it pays to be suspicious.
