Thank you for popping the absurd ego bubble of the British Guardian media clique with some very simple questioning on Webb's views that he is so unaccustomed to receiving in the UK that he immediately throws his toys out of the pram.

Replying to @TheKafkaDude @JesseThorn
Do you think children's charities should be beyond criticism? RW mentioned Oxfam, do you think it's wrong of papers to report about latest claims?As RW said here does that mean they hate the people Oxfam helps? He was ambushed, why wouldn't he be reserved about being questioned?
