    Naomi Oni acid attack: Woman charged

    Mary Konye, 21, has been charged with throwing or casting a corrosive fluid with intent to burn, maim, disfigure, disable or do grievous bodily harm.

    Doesn’t sound like a Muslim name, but this is the problem with the multi cultis making us guess at any offenders ethnicity unless they are white.

    And Cue the apologetic Muslims over the putative EDL Bradford bombing. Funny how these people never appear before the event, but afterwards rent a gob is always available to say what ever the bBC feel is appropriate.

    At least this time they gave an EDL supporter a voice , who was able to tell us that one of the bombers was out on bail for having bomb plans!

    Oh goody!
    Home Office hopes to prevent prisoners from getting Sky TV, by way of “making prison tougher”.
    The BBC seem concerned….I do hope that all those prisoners get the usual threats of needing to have a licence individually, that are always aimed at new students when they go to uni.
    Let`s hope the BBC Licensing/Capita bunch are in there as we speak, trying to get those “contributions from the scamp community”; thereby saving the hard-pressed taxpayer some much needed money.
    Any chance of an FoI telling us how much prisoners pay by way of BBC Licence fees/…and how the BBC intend to reclaim the money?
    Might make a good programme that one Sweeney!

    it`s PM again…and the “consumption rooms” of Frankfurt get much musing and quiet approval from our BBC monkey out there.
    I`m guessing that it saves the Greens a PPB, as well as a trip out there to see how stupid the “shooting gallery” is.
    Oh wait-“consumption room”…much nicer,and that`ll be what the BBC call them from now on.
    I`m guessing that Russell Brand or Howard Marks has put them right on the “slang”.
    And there was me thinking a consumption room would be set aside for the “Food Addiction” community…if they get the munchies, are the druggies or food addicts?
    Who gives a damn, other than the Greens and their civil partners at the BBC.
    Crap-sheer crap!

    BBC state that the EDL are an ‘anti-Islamic’ party; no, they’re anti-Islamic extremist party. They’re not anti-Sufi, anti-Buddhist, anti-Hindu, anti-Christian…. I wonder why so many people are becoming sick and tired with the religion of ‘peace’? Could it be because so many Muslims are intolerant, aggressive and hold non-believers in utter contempt? Because the BBC support Muslim extremists they’ll never see anything other than a persecuted minority.

    BBC not fully on side? The other day we read the good “news” that violent crime has fallen dramatically in Britain, as calculated by the so-called UK Peace Index (nothing to do with religion of peace). But looking at the BBC news website (Tuesday, 18:42) what do we see on the home page? “Woman guilty of murdering 5 family members in a fire”. “Six ‘men’ admit plot to bomb EDL rally”. “Trial of a man accused of murdering a 5 year old girl”. “No charges for 10,000 violent crimes”. “Three masked men ambush prison van”. Come on BBC, what are you doing exposing these minor shortcomings in our wonderful, tolerant, diverse society?

    Very objective news reporting by BBC on the EDL bombers. Even made Tommy Robinson sound rational.

    Was lucky enough to hear some Cockney whelk from Surry Uni blast the notion of victims of acquired tubby syndrome.
    She was great-used big words too, but was clear that this was a perceived excuse and a tired narrative, in effect.
    Oh dear-SHE`LL not be getting on Womans Hour any time soon.
    Nor will she be used as a defence stoolie for the next cannibal or shoplifter…good old Guildford!

    This has nothing to do with BBC bias, but from simple observation. Those that run their own businesses or take up positions of senior management in private business rarely seem to be overweight. Those that would appear to carry excess baggage seem to work for the Public Service. I know this is a sweeping statement, but it is what I’ve been observing for some time now, certainly in the circles I move in. Why would that be? What is the demographic of those with a food addiction? Could the BBC be championing yet another cause targeted at a specific demographic?

      It’s EXACTLY this kind of in-depth analysis that has made biasedBBC what it is today.

        It’s the fact that we understand the difference between I know this is a sweeping statement, but it is what I’ve been observing for some time now and in-depth analysis that makes BiasedBBC what it is today, and shows the puerile crap of its detractors for who they are.

        It’s that you lack any real intellect to counter the points made that makes you of benefit to us, but I don’t expect you to understand it.
        Keep it coming!

    BBC-Democrat follows Obamessiah political line of knowing nothing, and reporting nothing of BENGHAZI cover up.

    ‘Fox News’ is on to the case:-

    “Special forces could’ve responded to Benghazi attack, whistle-blower tells Fox News”

    BBC News ‘the far right EDL’ ever hear them mention the far left UAF?

    Then there’s a UKIP piece and a quick comment by BNP leader Nick Griffin commenting on UKIPs immigration policy. It’s obvious that the bBC believe that UKIP is as far right as the BNP or wish to embed the two together in voters minds.

    Disgraceful bias
