Mick,
1) I do not post crappy articles and I find your description inflammatory and disappointing. I do not need to justify the credentials of the BBC to you or anyone. It is an authoritative source.
2) Why do you think the article is provocative? If you feel the article is provocative then please state why you feel that it is and don't shoot the messenger. If you can do this effectively then people's views on the article may change. Calling it crap does not generally work unless you're preaching to the converted which serves little purpose.
3) I am not ridiculing anyone. I've good friends who voted both ways and feel strongly about their views. There's nothing in there that would offend them.
4) Please do not try and read my mind. My objective is to contribute useful discussion points to the debate. We all fail in this area from time to time but this is not one of those occasions for me.

I honestly don't see the harm in such analysis either and personally I find it interesting.
