You have to laugh at it. Earlier this morning, the BBC on Today managed to find a businessman who was not ONLY in favour of the UK joining the Eurozone but ALSO in favour of the creation of a single European political State. I wonder how hard they had to look to find him? (Sorry but can’t find link, I think it was during Adam Shaw’s business section at 7.16am)
BRING ON THE EURO

They had the pro-Euro businessman on twice during the full 3 hours.
Remember Esther Rantzen’s BBC show which showed us strangely shaped carrots and other oddities? It’s the same with this businessman and his odd views.
The BBC like to bring us bizarre and unusual opinions on all sorts of topics – climate hysteria and Israel are their two current favourites.
I would imagine it was ever so easy for the BBC to find him; I would suggest that he is on speed-dial.
I think this is related:
“Business leaders say Britain should still join the Euro”.
Which Tim Mongomerie has fun with here:

Indeed. But who is laughing any more?
When you read the full story, it turns out the headline is simply, for want of a better word, a lie.
..the story was based on an utterly biased survey of just eight people, all of whom were chosen specifically..
.. someone at the BBC just decided to go out of their way to give this tiny group of people, who are utterly unrepresentative of business and the public, a platform, and then massively over-egg the importance of both them and their entirely predictable views.
Unique. Even by Aunty’s dire standards.
Morpork you beat me to it! But the masses will believe it!! Or are they beginning to see through the BBC? No. Probably not.
Unbelievable when you think its all about to go pearshaped – its the last thing we should do.
Maybe they just get off on the amount of mind control they have over the British public?…..
