The workers paradise of Cuba

The BBC do normally enjoy telling the poor British how much better life is in Cuba than here, so I was 'surprised' that they have decided not to report, as The Telegraph do, that: "Cubans can enjoy a new freedom from this week - citizens of the communist island can now buy potatoes and peas without restriction."

That's odd the I don't remember the BBC ever telling us that there was rationing and food buying restrictions in the Socialist paradise of Cuba, maybe it just slipped their minds.
