	Because The Sun FP'd it and therefore people feel they must be annoyed about it because they were told to be.Yes, that's the 'noble workers' so beloved of our student politics chums. Those guys. The mong-browed fucking serfs who are allowed to vote despite being thick as pigshit, ill-informed, mob-mentality wankers who'd torch a paediatrician sooner than read a fucking book. The salt of the earth stouthearted yeomanry. The ones loathed throughout the civilised world.
