THE TEFLON MAYOR

 

 

I think it’s pretty clear that the BBC see Boris as a threat to the political consensus and Labour’s chances in 2015 if he were to somehow become leader of the Conservative Party.

This is the film by Michael Cockerell investigating Boris’ worthiness to be PM:

Boris Johnson:  The Irresistable rise

I haven’t had time to watch it but you can always go to the end to get the final wrap and discover what the programme really hopes to put across to the viewer…in this case it is that Boris would be a dangerous choice for PM:

‘If he were to become Prime Minister the British people would spend their time on the very edge of their seats.’

 

I think that’s as close as the BBC can allow itself to get to saying ‘avoid voting for Boris.’

So ‘Operation Get Boris’ is underway.  Twice elected Mayor in what is prime Labour territory, however unlikely, he may well pull off a similar political houdini act for the Tories…and win an outright majority escaping the dead grasp of the Libdems.

The BBC clearly are hoping that some mud will finally stick to what they call the ‘Teflon Mayor’ with Chris Mason concocting yet another BBC effort which seems solely aimed at having sly digs at Boris Johnson….who is as Cockerell calls him: ‘the country’s most popular politician’:

The ‘Teflon’ mayor:  Boris Johnson and the future PM question

‘It is an era where institutions and figures of authority are held in a lower regard than ever before.

Critics claim Westminster is awash with identikit clones who look the same and sound the same.

So perhaps it is little wonder that one politician more than any other, who appears to ooze authenticity, garners so much attention.

And we, at the BBC, are going to show you he oozes alright…but it’s not authenticity.

 

His name is Alexander Boris de Pfeffel Johnson.

You know…de Pfeffel…the Old Etonian…just like that other out of touch millionaire Cameron.

 

Does he want to be prime minister?

Ah..there’s the rub! Can’t allow that.

 

“If the ball came loose from the back of the scrum, which it won’t of course, it would be a great, great thing to have a crack at.”

A great thing to have a crack at. The sort of phrase most of us might use to describe being persuaded to play for the local cricket team. Not run the country.

 Ah…Boris is a joker, not someone serious or responsible.

 

As things stand Boris Johnson does not even have a seat at Westminster. So being an MP, let alone party leader, let alone prime minister is some way off, and to some at least, laughable.

Boris is a joke…laughable.

 

No disputes, Boris Johnson has got away with a lot.

Boris is a bit dodgy.

 

His force of personality, up to now at least, has given him a political coat made of Teflon. Nothing seems to stick, nothing seems to finish him off.

But we at the BBC are going to have a damned good go at it!

 

Quoting Conrad Black:   “he is a sly fox disguised as a teddy bear”. 

A final dig.

 

The BBC were probably taken aback by the response to Mair’s hatchet job interview and rushed this into circulation…it’s all OK…Boris loved it all….

Boris Johnson: BBC interview was splendid

 

But Boris would say nothing else..he’s not going to complain…so the BBC’s little ‘cover up’ of extremely partisan journalism is as dishonest as it is expected from the open and accountable BBC.

    Can it be true that there really is no such thing as bad publicity?
    Has the inbbc inadvertently projected Bonkers Boris into the limelight?
    Has the hatchet job backfired spectacularly on the traitors at the inbbc?
    Hmmm……

      Yes, I think the net effect of the fuss this week will be to increase support and liking for Boris. Mair’s interview had obviously and deliberately taken just a few critical bits from Michael Cockerill’s essay – and omitted all the bits that showed Boris in a human light.

      Cockerill is a real pro, his piece was informative and showed the rainbow mix of colours of the Boris Johnson paradox.

      Mair is just a nasty piece of work. a biased and snide hack.

        First let me say that I have first hand experience working with Michael Cockerell. I was a film editor during his early years in BBC Current Affairs and edited some of his films. I liked him very much.

        He is a serious reporter, somewhat sly like all journalists but with a sense of fun that brings his films to life. His problem is that his doom laden voice gives people the impression he is always about to announce the end of the world or the uncovering of some horrid conspiracy.

        Is he is raging lefty? Nope. he is genuinely neutral. I think he has a liberal mindset but his background (first wife: Anne Faber, granddaughter of Harold Macmillan, second wife Bridget Heathcoat-Amory, sister of Tory MP David Heathcoat-Amory) proves he has a foothold within the Conservative party. he has contacts! I’ve watched many of his films over the years and found him to be an equal opportunity destroyer.

        I agree with John that his documentary which I have just watched on YOUTUBE has a completely different slant to the dreadful Eddie Mair interview. Indeed, anyone watching both would be appalled by the cherry picking that Mair indulged in. Cockerell’s film was pretty well balanced. I left it liking Boris yet holding serious judgment of his character in reserve.
        He came over as a winning character, complex, with great strengths (“he is our only feel good politician”) and weaknesses (“I told him to put his willy away”). Perhaps the most honest criticism was from Red Ken who said that wanting to be liked is a dangerous trait in a politician.

        The BBC may be trying, as some claim, to destroy Boris – but he is a canny operator. While the Mair interview was bad for him, the documentary was fair and probably a good thing.

        I would also like to withdraw my allegation that somehow the Cameron machine was out to get Boris through the media. Having watch the documentary, I think the Mair interview was clearly self-serving and motivated by a leftist agenda.

        Finally, would I like to see Boris as leader of the Tories or PM? Nope. I prefer my politicians boring.

            I’m afraid I wouldn’t take Red Ken’s word for the time of day, let alone his opinion as to what marks out a successful politician, coming from someone who wasn’t.
            Boris “needing to be liked” is just another artful smear from the Left, affected as pop-psychology. The lefty Lebedev London ES gave lefty Andrew Neather a whole page last night claiming “Boris was “eviscerated” by Red Eddie “, and that he is not the man to lead the country. A whole full page of smear, that’s how much they fear the Boris effect. Coming after the “UKIP is disgusting” smear, we have “You are a nasty piece of work aren’t you” smear.
            More to come from the reds in Aunties bed?

    Looks like the BBC will again weather the odd circumstances behind a professional reporter with an earwig feed to the production suite, deciding to launch into a high profile assault on character based on personal opinion beyond professional investigation. Plus ca change.
    ‘‘If he were to become Prime Minister the British people would spend their time on the very edge of their seats.’
    An interesting parting thought in complement. Would.. ‘We’? I don’t recall being asked, again. Frankly my reaction would be resignation that we have another media village arts idiot running us over a cliff guided by ratings and policy prodding from those who are good at whispering in Londom metrosexual lug-holes.
    Speaking of cliffs, when the BBC gets Ed in to do their bidding, it might be interesting how many find themselves teetering at ledges at the prospect.
    Or scouring TripAdvisor for ‘best places not to get shafted if you are an income creator or saver’.
    Guessing that’s not too likely to get through the BBC filter, though.
    In the competition for the least bad, that our compelled national tribal PR agency will fix it so we still get the worst is a bit vexing.

    I’ll lay my cards on the table from the beginning, I don’t want to see Boris Johnson as leader of the Conservatives let alone prime Minister. If anything he’s even more left of centre than lefty Dave. Remember the phrase ‘ethnic cleansing’ he used to describe the housing benefit cuts which prevent (usually foreign born) claimants living in Mayfair & Knightsbridge.

    I remember a group of Tories looking to make Michael Portillo party leader, he later resigned from politics after a few gaffes, and a failed leadership bid. He would not have been suitable for the position.

    There’s no doubt that the BBC is biased in the way it has attacked Boris Johnson what ever its reasons were, but no broadcaster can mount an attack like this unless there is a past history which is not spotless. The poor performance of Johnson might well have been a surprise to Mair who pressed home his advantage. This was not a performance worthy of a potential prime minister.

      I agree. I made the comment yesterday that I thought Eddie Mair had possibly expected Boris to fight his corner better. I actually like Mair on the PM show, albeit his brusque manner sometimes sets my teeth on edge. He has a knack for the unexpected question which throws the interviewee off their stride.

      No politician has a spotless record and, when it was Labour in power, the serial adultery, sneaking about in parks and other dubious acts were considered none of our business by the BBC. Oh how they lamented the intrusion into their mates’ private lives.

      No, this is an attack on Boris because he is a Tory that they cannot beat in an election.

    Oh come on, it’s hardly fair to declare a programme biased without having seen it. I did watch this profile and thought it a perfectly fair treatment of Boris which if anything increased my admiration for him. Most unusually, he was given an opportunity to respond to all the major criticisms offered of him – the most trenchant of which came from his own sister. He came across as likeable and funny, and he dealt with aplomb with the points put to him, which were phrased in a markedly less aggressive fashion than Eddie Mair had managed a day earlier.

      ‘it’s hardly fair to declare a programme biased without having seen it.’
      Seeing the word ‘fair’ deployed on a blog about media competence and integrity is sweet.
      I wonder what term would be used for a BBC Editor, on holiday, phoning in an ‘analysis’ of a commons exchange about a series of policy announcements without having read them? One that, having been torn apart by even his loyal blog groupies, was followed up by a ‘now I have read it’ hole digger as an ‘update’?
      The BBC of course decided that he was merely showing his commitment by chipping in while on hols, and as a true expert professional anything he did write was only ‘about right’ anyway. Especially when it was how Ed Balls was an economics genius and master debater (when not falling back on his foot in mouth disabilities).

              The rhetoric is so extreme, it may be a false flag.
              But I was of the impression that some felt it was mandatory to go on record if not sharing a view, and silence was thus default support?
              Maybe a few heads are currently straining from the internal pressure of deciding between rock and hard place in what to do, or not?

    It’s just the latest episode of the BBCs ‘get the Tories’ agenda which underpins their operation. There is no difference in what Mair said to Johnson from calling Jeremy Cunt a Hunt, I mean Jeremy Hunt a CUNT!, live on air and then laughing about it and making an extended joke of it. Especially of course when you have serious form in the left wing bias department ‘when we win the election’ – Naughtie meaning his New Labour friends.

    David Cameron. By the way, have I mentioned him? He went to Eton you know? Yes, David Cameron went to Eton. He went to Eton don’t you know?, David Cameron. I thought I’d just mention it so that you wouldn’t be in any doubt about where David Cameron went to School. It was Eton. Like Boris Johnson. And so that makes him fair game for the BBC. And he’s a Tory, and he’s rich. And he went to Eton. Sorry, I’ve done that bit.

    There is any number of New Labour (or is it Old Labour now?) they could have stuck the boot into. ‘You’re a nasty piece of work aren’t you , , ?………Prescott…Campbell….Blears…Blair himself….

    Any number of New Labour and Lib Dems but they just keep choosing Tories….all in the name of balanced and impartial reporting. Of course! What a bunch of Jeremy Hunts.

      He has focussed on everything bar the one point the BBC and Mr. Mair would fear most, the personally abusive statement by a supposedly impartial interviewer, and concentrated on what seems more a droite de seigneur diatribe.
      For which he, and the publication are rightly getting roundly panned for in the comments.
      It is only the relative competence of any alternatives that afford Mr. Johnson any hope, as such defenders are as a big a shambles as the BBC are bent in their tribal abuse of power.

    My developer is trying to convince me to move to .
    net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the
    expenses. But he’s tryiong none the less. I’ve been using Movable-type on a variety of
    websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform.
    I have heard fantastic things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I
    can transfer all my wordpress posts into it?
    Any kind of help would be really appreciated!
    Does your website have a contact page? I’m having a tough time locating it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail.
    I’ve got some suggestions for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great website and I look forward to seeing it develop over time.
    It’s a pity you don’t have a donate button! I’d certainly donate to this superb blog!
    I suppose for now i’ll settle for book-marking and adding your RSS feed to my Google account. I look forward to fresh updates and will talk about this website with my Facebook group. Chat soon!
    Greetings from Los angeles! I’m bored to death at work so I decided to browse your site on my iphone during
    lunch break. I really like the info you provide here and can’t wait to take a look when I get home. I’m shocked
    at how fast your blog loaded on my mobile .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G .. Anyhow, awesome site!
    Greetings! I know this is kinda off topic but I’d figured I’d ask. Would you be interested in exchanging links or maybe guest authoring a blog article or vice-versa? My blog goes over a lot of the same subjects as yours and I believe we could greatly benefit from each other. If you are interested feel free to send me an email. I look forward to hearing from you! Wonderful blog by the way!
    At this time it seems like BlogEngine is the best blogging platform out there right now. (from what I’ve read) Is that what you’re using on your blog?
    Excellent post however I was wanting to know if you could write a litte more on this subject? I’d be very thankful if you
    could elaborate a little bit further. Thanks!
    Hi there! I know this is kinda off topic but I was wondering if you knew where I could find a captcha plugin for my comment form?
    I’m using the same blog platform as yours and I’m having problems finding
    one? Thanks a lot!
    When I initially commented I clicked the “Notify me when new comments are added” checkbox
    and now each time a comment is added I get four e-mails
    with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?
    Bless you!
    Hey! This is my first visit to your blog! We are a group
    of volunteers and starting a new initiative in a community in the same niche.
    Your blog provided us beneficial information to work on.

    You have done a outstanding job!
    Hey! I know this is kind of off topic but I was wondering which blog platform are you using for this site?
    I’m getting fed up of WordPress because I’ve had issues with hackers and I’m looking at alternatives for another platform. I would be awesome if you could point me in the direction of a good platform.
    Hello! This post couldn’t be written any better! Reading through
    this post reminds me of my previous room mate! He always
    kept talking about this. I will forward this post to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read.
    Thank you for sharing!
    Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point.
    You clearly know what youre talking about, why throw away
    your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening
    to read?
    Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a
    sea shell and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and
    said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.”
    She placed the shell to her ear and screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and
    it pinched her ear. She never wants to go back!

    LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

    Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad
    and tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just
    so she can be a youtube sensation. My apple ipad is now destroyed and she has
    83 views. I know this is totally off topic but I had to share it with someone!

    I was curious if you ever considered changing the layout of your website?
    Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.

    But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people
    could connect with it better. Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or
    2 pictures. Maybe you could space it out better?

    Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was just curious if you get a lot of spam feedback?

    If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can advise?
    I get so much lately it’s driving me crazy so any support is very much appreciated.
    This design is wicked! You certainly know how to keep a reader entertained. Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost…HaHa!) Wonderful job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
    I’m truly enjoying the design and layout of your
    site. It’s a very easy on the eyes which makes it much more pleasant for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a developer to create your theme? Great work!
    Good day! I could have sworn I’ve been to this site
    before but after reading through some of the post I
    realized it’s new to me. Nonetheless, I’m definitely delighted I found it and I’ll be book-marking and checking back frequently!
    Hello there! Would you mind if I share your blog with my facebook group? There’s a lot of folks that I think would
    really enjoy your content. Please let me know. Cheers
    Hello, I think your site might be having browser compatibility issues.
    When I look at your website in Ie, it looks
    fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
    I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, excellent blog!

    Wonderful blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News.

    Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
    I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Thanks
    Hi there! This is kind of off topic but I need some advice from an established blog. Is it very hard to set up your own blog? I’m
    not very techincal but I can figure things out pretty quick.
    I’m thinking about creating my own but I’m not sure where to begin.
    Do you have any points or suggestions? Many thanks
    Hi! Quick question that’s completely off topic. Do you know how to make your site mobile friendly? My site looks weird when browsing from my apple iphone. I’m trying to find a theme or plugin that might be able to fix this problem.

    If you have any suggestions, please share. Appreciate
    it!
    I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but your sites
    really nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your website to come back later. Many thanks
    I love your blog.. very nice colors & theme. Did you make this website yourself or did you hire someone to do it for you? Plz reply as I’m looking to create
    my own blog and would like to find out where u
    got this from. kudos
    Wow! This blog looks exactly like my old one! It’s on a completely different subject but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Wonderful choice of colors!
    Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly.
    I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two
    different internet browsers and both show the same outcome.

    Hi there are using WordPress for your site platform? I’m new to the blog world but I’m trying to get started and set up my own.
    Do you need any coding expertise to make your own blog? Any
    help would be really appreciated!
    Hi this is kinda of off topic but I was wanting to know if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if
    you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding skills so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Hey! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any trouble with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing many months of hard work due to no data backup. Do you have any solutions to prevent hackers?
    Hello there! Do you use Twitter? I’d like to follow you if that would be okay.
    I’m definitely enjoying your blog and look forward to new posts.
    Hi! Do you know if they make any plugins to protect against hackers? I’m kinda paranoid about losing everything I’ve worked hard on. Any suggestions?
    Howdy! Do you know if they make any plugins to help with SEO? I’m trying to get my blog to rank for some targeted keywords
    but I’m not seeing very good results. If you know of any please share. Kudos!
    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own
    blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very internet savvy so
    I’m not 100% positive. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
    Hmm is anyone else experiencing problems with the pictures on this blog loading? I’m trying to find out if its a problem
    on my end or if it’s the blog. Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
    I’m not sure exactly why but this site is loading extremely
    slow for me. Is anyone else having this problem or
    is it a issue on my end? I’ll check back later and see if the problem still exists.
    Hey there! I’m at work browsing your blog from my
    new iphone! Just wanted to say I love reading through
    your blog and look forward to all your posts!
    Carry on the great work!
    Wow that was unusual. I just wrote an very long
    comment but after I clicked submit my comment didn’t appear. Grrrr… well I’m not writing all that over again.
    Anyhow, just wanted to say superb blog!
