A Biased BBC reader brought this totally neutral balanced piece of political reporting by Paul Reynolds to my attention; For some reason, I can’t seem to recall Paul being quite so sarcastic during the Labour years, I wonder why?
The British Prime Minister David Cameron has invented a new diplomacy – go to one country and criticise another.
Tosser Reynolds clearly has a short memory, the one eyed mong was going around Europe saying “It all started in America”
That’s okay, though. That “started in America” when Bush was in charge. No problem at all.
ID cards started in America and the recession will protect us from terrorists.
Or something.
Paddy O’Connell, the Gord-loving beeboid who presents Radio 4’s Broadcasting House, had an ‘hilarious’ (not) bit on Sunday’s edition where clips of Cameron’s “foghorn” diplomacy (in Paddy’s words) were played and humorously (not) interrupted by foghorn-like blasts from the zuzuveka.
Oh and of course the BBC are ONLY attacking Cameron for slagging off the terrorist lovers in Pakistan. Note the BBC are NOT attacking Cameron for calling Gaza a prison camp or hammering Israel, the whole of the BBC has been upset that he might have noticed that Pakistan not only is it a shit hole but also the home to the worlds terrorists.
Martin, I think that’s as clear an indication of BBC bias as you can get.
Exactly Craig, the BBC has a one sided left wing mindset.
Very good and accurate spot.
I didn’t know that this was the first time, ever, that diplomats, dignitaries, heads of state and so on had gone to one country and criticised another. I should watch, listen or read the BBC more. I’ll soon be a super genius.
Yes it’s amazing what the BBC’s high-level analysis can reveal
Oh, and it’s worth every penny. You can’t put a price on being educated, entertained and informed. Envy of the world, the BBC is.
I was listening to a programme on radio 4 today about iron and steel production in Britain. The BBC ensured that it was pointed out that it was a Conservative government in power when many closures took place.
The main thrust of the programme was about the effects on the local community of the clouser of Redcar. No mention of course that it was under a Labour government.
or that it was because of the Government’s Carbon Tax policies which resulted in the Redcar jobs being moved to India
I don’t remember the BBC having Bob Crowe on to complain about how carbon taxes have driven jobs at of the country. Must not have happened, then.
Yes indeed – the closure of all our coal mines and steel works has helped the environment imeasuerably – If they were open today would the BBC and their eco-fanatics want them closing?
Thank Gaia for Margaret Thatcher, then.
The hilarious sight of the beeboid interviewer trying to force the Pakistani diplomat to be furious at Cameron for his words, doing his utmost to whip up the perfect storm in a tea cup and falling flat as the diplomat avoided being drawn into the beeboids game plan. The beeboid so wanted and indeed expected a furious tongue lashing of Cameron and every device used simply failed.
Perhaps the BBC were labouring under a mistaken illusion? Racial profiling a guest in the hope that Pakistanis would have less self control and would rage away for the edification of the BBC.
“Those remarks will have their own effects – the first pleasing in Turkey, displeasing in Israel, and the second an overdue recognition of reality, perhaps.”
Whose reality is that then, Paul????
The BBC STILL hammering Cameron for telling the truth, Pakistan is the worlds urinal for Terrorism.
The BBC is still flogging the non story to death when all other outlets have moved on.
The pictures of the rage mobs in Pakistan burning a stuffed doll effigy of “camroon” shows perfectly just who is furious and rage filled and it is not ordinary civilised educated Pakistanis!
As usual the demostrators are the usual ignorant ‘death to America’ islamist rent a rage mob animals only to keen to pour out of the madrassas and mosques to denounce the infidel west.
Of course the BBC does not ask the awkward questions or query the motives and beliefs of the mob, the mob looks identical to all the other rent a rabble jihad loving crowds ready and willing to burn infidel flags.
The BBC working hand in hand with west hating rage mobs and using them for their own political aims? Of course!
We all know that the BBC has an anti Conservative agenda, so no surprises here. The ISI statement is hardly revealing- A Pakistan that faces only two ways on anything would be a bloody improvement!
However, I was surprised that Cameron promoted the idea of Turkish entry to the EU. That was, until I had a bit of a think. Who has most to lose from Turkish Assession? Germany would be my bet. Population flow will centre there, and economic flow will centre in the opposite direction. Germans are very sick of bailing out southern Europe. The Euro was set at a level which reinforced a German monetary advantage and competitive edge, the downside of that is that it forces Germany to prop up other states or face the death of its own currency.
So Turkey would further inbalance the EU, and therefore we all know there is no chance of Turkey being allowed in. Cameron can afford to stroke Turkey a little, while making sure that it is the Germans and the Greeks who raise the obstacles to EU enlargement.
