What does it have to do with them?

This (via Comment Central) is why it doesn't matter which of the two muppets running for leader of the LibDems wins:The Liberal Democrats have calculated that over the three-day Christmas holiday, the number of repeats on all channels is up by 25% on last year and the proportion of children's programmes already shown at least once is 80%. On the BBC's terrestrial channels, that rises to more than 90%. As Daniel Finkelstein writes:Why? Why did the Liberal Democrats calculate this? What's it got to do with them? Are they suggesting that the scheduling of Porridge and Dad's Army should now be determined by Parliament?
If you think Labour interferes in areas in which it has no business getting involved, just try the LibDems.
