THE ROAD ALWAYS TAKEN

*
Unlike Newsnight, which gave us the unusual luxury of two Conservative politicians last night (Dan Hannan and Michael Portillo), The World Tonight trod its usual left-liberal path.
*
The government's defence green paper was discussed with Andrew Dorman of King's College London, and "committed European" Philippe Morillon, who served as a French Liberal MEP. A report from Chavez's Venezuela was followed by an interview on the same topic with former Costa Rican vice president (and interim president) Kevin Casas Zamora, a social democrat. Finally, President Obama's decision not to attend the latest US-EU summit in Spain was discussed with Spanish writer Miguel Morado, who the programme always turns to (exclusively) to discuss Spanish politics, and Dr Daniel Hamilton of John Hopkins University, who made noises supportive of Obama and who, it transpires, worked in Bill Clinton's State Department.
*
Robin Lustig presided, liberally.
