I’m not a fan of the Conservative Party here in the UK because I don’t think they act as conservatives under the leadership of Mr Cameron. However, I can understand the huge problem Cameron has to overcome when faced with the relentless pro-leftist agenda spewed out by the State Broadcaster and so I suppose it inevitable that he triangulates ever leftwards if only to escape the savage mercies of the BBC guardianistas. You see I don’t think the BBC will EVER bring itself to actually like the Conservatives and instead when push comes to shove, it will always cheer-lead for the Left. This is evident in a trio of stories leading BBC news this morning.
First up comes the news that despite the (now admitted) influx of 800,000 migrants from eastern Europe, (I thought Labour told us it was going to 14,000?) there is NO evidence that this has led to an increase in crime. Phew – what a relief for nice Mr Brown and his ten year long support for the multiculti nation without borders project. Yes, there has been the odd bit of bother here and there but let us be clear; overall crime has NOT risen despite this massive increase of eastern Europeans – those Romanians and Bulgarians are a law-abiding lot apparently – from the moment they hit these shores. The BBC runs this as if it were definitive. It’s not. The “investigation” is purely based on anecdotal reports from “detectives and community officers” and since the nationality of offenders is not even recorded, on what factual basis can any serious judgement be made?
Next up, good old Labour are showing how tough they are on cracking down on terrorism by announcing that 300 police officers “will be moved”into “helping dissuade” a small minority of people from being “radicalised.” How they will actually do this is left unclear and the BBC point blank refuses to tell us precisely which group this “small minority” might belong to. Ssssh – don’t mention ISLAM. Jacqui Smith’s so-called announcement is risible but the BBC are, in anything, worrying that it might be too tough and could alienate that “small minority.”! Last time I checked out a poll it indicated up to 10% of UK muslims supported Jihad attacks – with a UK population of at least 1.1.6 million British Muslims this means that up to 144,000 support terrorism. And 300 plods are going to sort this one out?? Really?
Finally the dear Leader himself is in the States today and preparing to tell Wall Street to “come clean” apparently about the financial losses they have made. Why doesn’t he do the same and why doesn’t the BBC ask this question? Also, in another PR makeover for Gordon the BBC is telling us that he is going to force a UN security council meeting chaired by Thabo “Crisis, what crises?” Mbeki to deal with Zimbabwe even though it is not an agenda item! The idea that Brown is going to get the corrupt African Union, and the even more corrupt UN, to do ANYTHING of substance here is laughable, and yet this is put out as if it were credible.
Labour is spinning like crazy these days and the State Broadcaster is doing as much as possible to help Brown and his dismal crew. There is little, if any, attempt made to query the substance of what the NuLabour masters put out. The more desperate Labour gets, the easier the ride given by the BBC. Preserving leftism in power is the number one objective at play here and you and I are being made to fund it through the taxation policy of the State Broadcaster.
“I thought you had stopped visiting this blog or were kicked off or some such thing?”
Got bored.

Alex – why not send that nice Victoria along instead?
Alex,
Now you are talking some sense at last me ole mucker!
Of course you got bored, visiting those dull, tedious and mind numbingly awful socialist blogs for five minutes would make anyone reach for a rope, they are the written version of a couple of valium and a double vodka.
No wonder you come onto decent blogs like this one, we may be wrong sometimes and we may go OTT but its never boring is it?
Its fiesty and quick off the mark and anarchic sometimes but great fun when you learn the ropes!
Word to the wise though mate, When people post things that have merit in full or part then accept it and let them know? Just acting as a blind and uber loyal party hack doesnt endear you to the B-BBC crew of misfits, cranks and visionaries who would critisise their own grannies in a heartbeat!
Just a thought mate.

Notice how I didn’t post here for a while? I’ll leave you to work out which sites I got bored of.
“Word to the wise though mate, When people post things that have merit in full or part then accept it and let them know?”
Cheers m’dears, will do and have done frequently me old buddy me old pal, [assorted Joshua Merryweather expressions of affection].
David:
Considering your fierce criticism of my supposed ‘ad hominem’ arguments, you do seem to pick up on the personal aspects of my posts and posts to me and ignore my BBC-related comments.
Now kindly tell me:
1. Why the BBC should reject the police’s findings on crime in preference to the gut feelings and anecdotal evidence of ordinary citizens.
2. What the bit in the middle about Muslims has to do with the BBC.
3. Whether you think the BBC should adopt a blanket policy of announcing that a certain policy will never work, due to the incompetence of the PM and those he is negotiating with.
Alex,
Look back a few posts and you will find the reasons for why the report is a whitewash waste of time.
Ask and ye shall find!
“Got bored.”
A bit like the two sows,went to a party ,got bored and went home again.
Sorry David Vance,
I know you’re a Bluenose but it’s a great night to be Catholic – the Pope is taking America by storm (eclipsing McBroon the Doom), fellow Papist Berlusconi has triumphed at the ballot-box and best of all, Celtic have beaten Rangers 2-1.
Read with genuine interest. Though from your account flawed, as methodologies go
Alex | Homepage | 16.04.08 – 9:20 pm |
If anyone feels inclined to explain it to Alex please feel free to do so, quite frankly I couldn’t be arsed.
Likewise:
Trying my best not to sound sarcastic, can you elaborate on what exactly this agenda is?
No.
Again I couldn’t be arsed to explain the blinding obvious.
For others I actually met Fahy several times in a professional capacity. Enough said.
No more ‘debate’ Alex. You are either being deliberately obtuse or being incredibly stupid.
I’m inclined to the former, but will not indulge you further.
Hi David,
Many thanks for answering with a quote without giving the source. Unfortunately, you have not addressed my question. I quote you again:
“Yes, there has been the odd bit of bother here and there but let us be clear; overall crime has NOT risen despite this massive increase of eastern Europeans – those Romanians and Bulgarians are a law-abiding lot apparently – from the moment they hit these shores.”
You are asserting in your sentence that Romanians and Bulgarians are criminals. Is this your opinion or a fact?
gunnar,
I AM insisting that Romania and Bulgaria suffer from institutionalised criminality and that organised crime is a major export from these charming nations. Got a problem with that? If you have, I suggest you take it up with my SOURCE which just happens to be..gulp..the EU!
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/5380024.stm
Have a little read, will you?
And then of course, there is the real nasty stuff that the BBC runs away from…

Greencoat,
No problem – enjoy your night. My day will come 😉
Mr Vance,
Cast your baby blues over this compendium of criminality. Nice we get to share a bank account with them,even nicer that some are now part of OUR government.
And this.
Gunnar,
Is that you patooc?
Let me put you straight on one thing,
when you mention ‘overall crime rates’ you miss the central point that statistics can hide uncomfortable facts, lots of them!
Crime rates are averaged out from everywhere and as most immigrant criminals concentrate in local hotspots when you average out the figures it brings the average rate right down. Taken area by area the figures shoot up dont they? But that is not what our nu beaurocrats in blu dont want you to know!
These figures are fiddled, you know it and I know it but the BBC doesnt give a shit because it supports their agenda.
How do I know that the real figures for immigrant crime is rocketing? A relative is a CID detective and I know he faces a mounting struggle to feel collars while fighting the enemy of political correctness that forces him to let many immigrant crooks walk away scot free.
Foreigners commit more serious crime per head of population than the native population when broken down into regions but that does not fit the BBC agenda of ‘immigration is great’ so we will never be told facts that do not fit the BBC agenda!
Hi David
Again you avoiding to answer my question. You have written that Romanians and Bulgarians are criminals; i.e. not every criminal is a Romanian/Bulgarian but every Romanian/Bulgarian is a criminal.
This is in relation to your sentence:
“Yes, there has been the odd bit of bother here and there but let us be clear; overall crime has NOT risen despite this massive increase of eastern Europeans – those Romanians and Bulgarians are a law-abiding lot apparently – from the moment they hit these shores.”
Determined not to read the links Gunnar.
Peter:
And this.

Bored?
Disingenuous?
If not then go elsewhere.
Your own blog? Perhaps that already was too boring because you posted here more often than your own site.
Anyway bye then.
Don’t let the door hit your backside too hard on the way out.
TPO:
“No more ‘debate’ Alex. You are either being deliberately obtuse or being incredibly stupid.”
I attempted to engage with your points. I acknowledged your claim that police methodologies were flawed, I expressed interest in your claim that the police chief had an “agenda” by requesting further information, and I did so consciously trying to avoid a hostile tone. Don’t take it personally.
Bye bye Alex.
your assumption seems to be that foreigners are more likley to commit offences than british people.
what a stupid comment
“You know it worries me that you keep a log of how you insult people on the internet” – people like you, Mr ‘twat’ Alex, are easy to remember.
I see that facts are not allowed to interfere with your agenda, Jeff.
“preparing to tell Wall Street to “come clean” apparently about the financial losses they have made.”
Losses they have incurred surely?
You cant ‘make’ a loss!
Yes, you can. ‘To make a loss’ is a perfectly good collocation.
“see that facts are not allowed to interfere with your agenda, Jeff.”
what, you mean there is now empirical evidence that ‘foreigners’ are more criminal than the british?
