Dignity?

A Sunday Telegraph columnist states:
It is excellent news that the Government has appointed Sir Michael Parkinson to be "dignity ambassador" for elderly people in care.

I don't think so. I find it distasteful that someone who has used his position to exploit elderly people through advertising for an insurance company's Over 50 Plan (and a French insurance company at that) should be appointed to anything by the government. Does he really need the money from his advertising fees? And now he is whoring for Murdoch's Sky Plus.
