Daytime television: yes, we can "enjoy" that.

Party political: depends on how you define that. All parties in parliament do annual membergatherings, and parts of that are sent on TV, but only a fixed number of minutes pr party. If you think of "party coloured transmissions", where things are presented as if viewed through coloured spectacles: no. We have TV journalists who are known to be member of a party (we have at present about 10 parties in parliament), but they behave themselves.
