    BBC report (by Mukul Devichand) on deprived white British working class children avoids any issue of racial discrimination against white children by this fortunate one-liner of a conclusion:

    “economic background and support at home can often make as much difference as what colour you are.”

    -No mention of the negative impact of mass immigration on British education.

    Wow, I just saw the worst fawning segment on Mandleson and his book on BBC News.  John Pinar(?) was smling and insisting that all the hatred directed towards Mandelson over the years was just silly.  Peenar asked a member of the public attending a book sigining if Mandelson wasn’t really a bit of “pantomime villain”.  Which means we’re not meant to give much credence to all the critics.

    When Pinar (grinning from ear to ear the whole time) was talking directly to Mandelson – who was seated at a table autographing a book for the drooling Beeboid – the scene was that of a teenage fan allowed to do an interview of their idol for some local children’s news programme.  I’m not kidding.  It probably was such a case for this biased Beeboid, since he must have been very excited, a low-ranking correspondent like him, actually being allowed to interview Lord Mandelson!

      That’s the point David, the BBC have tried to play down every bad story about the Bliar and the one eyed prat.

      It was the BBC that smeared everyone who came out with a book that dissed Brown for being mad, having a violent temper a liar and so on.

      Ed Balls got totally nailed by Brillo last night on This Week, Brillo went through all the books that have written about Liebour sleaze, yet Balls just denied it all.

    So BBC news finally report on Mandelson’s book, but wait, did I miss something? This was the man who for 13 years had the BBC at his beck and call, the BBC who loved his gayness and poisoned hate filled clap trap.

    Yet today the tables were turned, the BBC tried to make out Mandy was ‘making it all up’ and we got the ‘great’ Lord kinnockio telling us that the book is all bollocks. Yep bollocks, that’s what comes to mind when I think of the BBC and Nu Liebour.

    ‘Every so often, the BBC reminds us that its capacity for woolly thinking is greater than that of the entire sheep population of Wales.‘

    Not sure I can quite agree with certain aspects of that analysis.

    What is rather evident is that many, from VERY opposing viewpoints, have actually missed, or chosen to ignore the point of the article. Which is the apparent intention of the BBC to create a piece of narrative as opposed to a useful factual analysis.

    As with too much else of their output, it will be a small clique’s opinion, packaged and presented as reporting.
