A British Sunday newspaper – one of the lower forms of life on earth – has reported that the head of strings at a minor public school is a member of a revolutionary communist party. The teacher in question has visited North Korea and claims to admire its regime.

Er, so what?

The school is a private, fee-paying institution. Even if the teacher was a rabid missionary, there would be few opportunities while adjusting fingering and bow position to convert £30,000 a year silver-spoon children to a subversive ideology.

We fail to see any public interest in this story. Can you?
