From countbinface.com:

As you will know, one of my greatest passions in my democratic dealings on Earth is to push through the reinstitution of Ceefax, the beloved free news service that was superior to the internet in every way. It might just be my greatest vote-winner.

What is Ceefax?

Ceefax (/ˈsiːfæks/, punning on "see facts") was the world's first teletext information service and a forerunner to the current BBC Red Button service. Ceefax was started by the BBC in 1974 and ended, after 38 years of broadcasting, at 23:32:19 BST (11:32 PM BST) on 23 October 2012
