MP calls for digital map removal

Another local story on the BBC News website - the headline sounds far more alarming than the reality of course....

A Borders MP is calling for Digital UK to withdraw some of its leaflets for television switchover in his region.

Lib Dem Michael Moore says maps miss out Berwickshire from the Border TV region which will switch in 2008.

He says this is "simply incorrect" and has asked for the company to withdraw leaflets from public libraries.

Nice to see he's concentrating on the very blobby map (which had an estimated resolution of 5 miles either way) - rather than the accompanying text, which actually made sense whilst not telling the entire story.

Any readers who are getting ITV1 Border through your aerial, then you will be affected by the switch off in 2008.
