So now the pendulum has swung entirely back, and BBC Mother isn’t to be blamed at all for her parenting skills in bringing up a daughter who was so weak and stupid that she succumbed to the blandishments of The Industry?

Why is this particular dead bimbo any different from Marilyn Monroe, Judy Garland, Janis Joplin, Anna Nicole Smith or Michael Jackson; and why is this particular mother any different from Marilyn’s froot loop of a mother, stage mother par excellance Mrs Gumm, or Joe Jackson?

Other than she wants to put all the blame somewhere else, and isn’t it interesting that the institution she wants to blame has deep enough pockets for a pretty good payoff (if things are done that way in Britain).
