I'm not interested in playing the part of a Yorkshireman, and I'm certainly not about to defend the CPC. I wouldn't trade my citizenship of a Western country for any other.

All I'm saying is that your example doesn't make your case that Western governments are that much better at tackling these kinds of potential problems, or that they don't try to cover them up, often in ways that prevent the problem from being fixed.

If you want to argue that they have a train collision a month that we just don't know about, while I vehemently condemn censorship for itself, I can't accept lack of proof as proof that it happened!
