The Virgin returns? Branson plots return to UK radio
He's got a couple of years to come to his senses, but ages after he flogged off Virgin Radio, and a few weeks after that network was forced to change its name to something Absolutely Bloody Awful, there's reports that Richard Branson is plotting to bid for Classic FM's licence when it comes up for renewal in 2011/2012.
Oh, it gets better, though: Kelvin MacKenzie is also involved, according to PaidContent. Kelvin MacKenzie. The man who, on Question Time last week, suggested that you could disprove global warming because 99% of scientists agree it's happening, while a year ago 99% of economists agreed the economy would continue to thrive. You wouldn't put a man with that degree of flawed logic in charge of restacking the shelves in a Virgin megastore, never mind in charge of an FM rock network, would you?

Kelvin MacKenzie? Bloody hell. Live TV anyone? Would this be his way of getting some kind of right wing talk radio nationally on FM? I dread to think what that could lead to. I'm surprised that Branson wants any sort of association with that man. He has to be one of the most vile people around.
I agree. He is a despicable arse and should be legally killed, perhaps by being trampled to death by hordes of Liverpool FC supporters. I feel vindictive today. It's justified though.
