Nan Not Indecent

After more than a month of dithering, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) has finally decided that Nan Goldin's snapshot Klara and Edda Belly Dancing is not indecent. Nevertheless, BBC News is too coy to publish the snap and insists on perpetuating the sinister lie that it shows "two naked young girls", clearly untrue. Considering BBC TV has screened documentaries on Amazon Indians and African tribespeople who live in the nuddy, its dishonest stance on this story seems peculiar. No doubt Sir Elton John - the owner of the Nan Goldin Thanksgiving collection - is pleased by the CPS decision.
