Trivial Pursuit

Such is the looking-glass world we live in these days, that a major symptom of the trivialisation of politics has been whining about the trivialisation of politics. The London Haystack, who went for a BBC interview expecting to be asked some nice easy questions, like whether he agrees with the budget and whether he believes housing in London would be a rather jolly thing, instead found himself being interrogated over such trivial matters as making up quotes and conniving at having people beaten up. In a sense he may have been lucky that the interview took this direction, since the interviewer might have easily been tempted to adulterate any conversation about housing with the London Haystack's clearly trivial assertion that no social cleansing would take place on his watch.
