However, after puffin numbers being down after the cold weather, puffin numbers are back up again because of the warm weather – yipeee!
BBC news 24 at 12 pm responds to chancellor’s shale gas announcement by providing a platform for a Friends Of The Earth spokeswoman to spout green lies uncontested for 4 minutes. No right of reply or balancing viewpoint is offered beyond some weak underarm questions provided by the newsreader. She even ends by bowling this tough question: “What do you think of David Cameron’s claims to be running the greenest government ever?” – even the FOE woman guffaws at that one – taking yet another opportunity to summarise her main bogus talking points again. Appalling bias.
Just after 5am this morning BBC World Service had a long “article” including bleat after bleat from people being affected by the limits being set in the UKon welfare payments. The item did not mention that these limits have heavy public support. The next item was a bleat about the position of Muslims in the UK after Trooper Rigby’s death.
No doubt these items are being recycled many times on the World Service. Whinge after whinge after whinge.
Gee, thank you BBC for portraying to the world the best of Britain.
Boston jihadist:-
Two reports:-
1.) ‘Daily Mail’-
(Not ‘Rolling Stone’)
“Bloodied and bruised at the moment of surrender: Dramatic new pictures emerge of the moment ‘Boston bomber’ climbed from the boat where he had been hiding, as a sniper took aim at his head.”
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2369810/Dzohokhar-Tsarnaev-pictures-Dramatic-new-pictures-moment-Boston-Bomber-emerged-boat.html
2.) BBC-Democrat:-
“Boston suspect Tsarnaev ‘manhunt photos’ leaked”
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23370205
“… described by police as Eastern European.”
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-23366259
Funny, that when the alleged are not Muslim the BBC are happy to describe ethnicity.
A jolly trip to Bournemouth Beach for the Breakfast Weather reader some other bloke and that Calder travel bloke they like. Wonder how much this cost Mr. License Fee Payer?
Before the dumb troll starts yes I expect a weather forecaster to forecast from the studio. I know what a beach looks like in fact I’ve been to Bournemouth beach many times. A blue screen of a beach will suffice for those that can’t conj our up the image of a beach in their minds. Maybe an FOI request to see how much these outings are costing us in these cash strapped times.
I can tolerate Bournemouth beach.
It’s the whole ‘James Naughtie fancies a few days in Rio (five star and front of the plane) let’s string a programme together’ boondoggle I can’t stand.
cf Huw Edwards (sp?) wants to be seen as ‘a serious journalist’ let’s send him off to Camp Bastion so he can pose around in front of a chopper with a tin hat and some body armour on.
(plenty more cf’s where that came from)
“Squandering public money, BBC style”
DAVID ELSTEIN
http://www.opendemocracy.net/ourkingdom/david-elstein/squandering-public-money-bbc-style?
Great article by Elstein explaining simply that the BBC managerial elite saw that money just rolled in and they were determined to maximise their share for whatever reason, or in whatever way.
No moral thought crossed anyone’s mind. It was the BBC culture.
Human nature of course and no different from the behaviour of bankers and those in the financial sector generally where money is no object.
A very one sided interview with Trayvon Martin’s parents, showing that the BBC clearly disagree with the verdict. And this weekend, Prime Minister Cameron’s little darlings from the UAF will be marching for Justice for Trayvon Martin.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-23360380
A sensible analysis, debunking the racist campaigners, is at http://www.spiked-online.com/newsite/article/trayvon_martin/#.UelYXazAEhk.
he got justice didn’t he? yo reap what yo sow!
bbc has a continuous and relentless wolverhampton mosque bomber loop going on …
although “Nothing was found at the mosque itself, which has now been reopened for worship” ? …. hmmm sounds a bit tenuous but hey, that won t make any difference, so expect a lot more
This BBC report is obviously intended to my arouse my sympathy for this chap – but I’m afraid it simply has me confused.

Life in transit: What is it like to live in an airport?
For Mohammed Al Bahish being stuck there for 120 days has been an excruciating ordeal.
The 26-year-old Palestinian refugee, born in Iraq, is confined to what officials call “the sterile zone”
He cannot enter Kazakhstan because he has no visa, but nor does he have a visa to enter any other country. Israel won’t allow him to travel to the Palestinian territories, and the UN accepts that with no living relatives in Iraq, it would be unsafe for him to return to the country of his birth.
“I talk to my cousin Yaser, he lives in Norway. I don’t have any other close family, my parents died in Iraq when I was 16, and I don’t have any brothers or sisters,” he says.
It was the desire to make his own family that brought him to Kazakhstan to live with his girlfriend, Olesya Grishenko, now pregnant with their first child.
The Kazakh national met Mohammed on holiday in Dubai when he was working there as an interior designer.
In Kazakhstan, while registering their intention to marry, Mohammed’s refugee travel documents went missing, and his Kazakh and UAE visas expired.
“I was deported from Istanbul for lack of a valid visa, and they sent me back to Almaty. But here I also did not have a valid visa so they sent me straight back to Istanbul. Four times I flew back and forth between the two cities,” Mohammed says.
Kazakh immigration is keeping Mohammed in the airport’s transit area, which legally is not considered Kazakh territory.
I reckon the plot of the Borat movie is more believable than most of this story. It seems the BBC thinks this man’s nationality is ‘refugee’. I give in. OK BBC let’s have him over here in the UK if it makes him and the Beeboids happy.
So we can use the benefit payments saved on qtada on another good cause.
In the absence of GeorgeR I feel duty bound to bring this snippet from the DM to your attention.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2370142/Neighbour-hell-BNP-candidate-Roy-West-jailed-racist-rants-German-man-living-door.html
As GeorgeR would no doubt point out the absence of this story from any “BBC-NUJ” source is obvious evidence of their bias towards the BNP!!
No alba! Surely not….planted poppies!!! In his garden!!!
And draped what? A union jack? Lordy lordy, whatever next huh?
Warning: Do not read the BBC’s report about the President’s speech today, where He said that St. Trayvon could have been Himself 30 years ago. The President masterfully danced around the legal question of Zimmerman’s acquittal, and instead told everyone that He understood the outrage and that we all must consider the verdict from the perspective of historical injustices.
And even though the Stand Your Ground Law was irrelevant even before the trial started, He still brought it up and demanded reform, just like Eric Holder has done. Fortunately, He paid lip service to the notion of peaceful demonstrations.
Shorter version: Forget the facts, ladies and gentlemen: It’s all about race, all the time. We’re going to keep on talking about an irrelevant law and racial profiling because that’s what works for us. And it helps keep the IRS and other scandals out of the spotlight. Stay on the plantation for the 2014 mid-terms so we can take back the House.
