BBC 'Want to be a spy'?

the BBC news website has a test, could you be a spy? check it out. It is mad. Take question three for example?
You’ve been asked to infiltrate a subversive group on the far left – what do you wear?
A: Fancy dress – it’s important to prove you have a sense of humour
B: Suit
C: Casual clothes
um. I wonder? This is lunacy. BBC trying to grip fear of the public about the 'far left'. OH. So dangerous.
my arse.

Is it a) a pair of lederhosen and a fake Hitler moustache, b) shaven head and H.A.T.E tattooed on right knuckle, or c) an England football shirt with optional swastika motif.
Answers on a postcard, please.
PS: Did anyone see the Channel 4 documentary about young BNP "leader" Mark Collett? Highly amusing.

on the subject of bias...

I saw a CNN Asia report saying that Amnesty International had condemned Palestinian suicide bombings as a "crime against humanity".
...Then I read an indymedia report saying that AI had condemned the Israeli occupation as a "crime against humanity".
Putting two and two together, my conclusion is that AI actually did in fact say *both* of these things.
And surely this is entirely analogous to the er... stuff that's been written above.
Moral of story?
Let's all fucking grow up and try to be a tad more objective.
There is NO need for bias.
The arguments put forward by our political movement are correct and they therefore do not have any need of *exaggeration*or *lying* or *selective / out of context quoting*.
The truth is on our muthafucking side. We do not need to resort to use of anything BUT the truth.
Present an objective representation of the situation and the facts can speak for them-muthafucking-selves.
Hmmkay?
