Whatever Ed Miliband says goes….straight onto the BBC News.
A ceiling collapses in a theatre and instantly Miliband is there posturing for the BBC which happily reports his every word….nobody expected him to say anything or wanted him to…no doubt his PR people thought it a good idea….but isn’t it just Miliband ambulance chasing for headlines which he was given on a plate by the BBC?
Now Miliband has ‘vowed to give councils the power to ban high stakes roulette machines from bookmakers’ shops if Labour wins the next election.’
I heard that on the radio news bulletin…but there was no mention of Labour’s part in legalising these machines in the first place in those bulletins….so giving credit is given to Labour for attacking them but failing to place the guilt where it should be.
A couple of weeks ago we had Labour’s Tom Watson on the BBC, Derbyshire I believe, admitting that Labour ‘dropped the ball badly‘ on this:
“these pernicious machines are destroying the lives of the poorest in society”.
Strangely in the following news bulletins Labour’s part in that wasn’t mentioned…Watson claiming to be the moral scourge and that only Labour would seek to ban the gambling machines seemed to be the story.
You would have had a completely different view of who was to blame if you relied solely on the news bulletins for your news.
Either the BBC is being manipulated by Labour…in which case the supposedly highly experienced BBC should know better and be able to counter that…or the BBC is a useful idiot willingly going along with Labour’s narrative.
THE FALL OF THE CEILING WAS DUE TO TORY CUTS !!!!!

If it was a lightning strike, then I’m sure the Beeboids will claim it was Allah being angry with the planned reduction from our energy bills of the green tax.

It isn’t just Red Ed’s politics that worry me, its this growing belief I have that this man is showing signs of a growing narcissism. This being fed, unwittingly, by the BBC.
History tells us that, when these kind of people get their hands on power, they can very easily rationalize the persecution and destruction of people for whatever reason. In fact, they do not even need a reason, they just believe what they are doing is for the greater ‘good’, such is the delusion.
Being there to provide comments on personal tragedies, from helicopter crashes too theater ceilings falling, which are not political, is quite frankly ghoulish. The BBC is playing at political character building. They want to, and be seen to, creating the image of the future leader. They have their eye on the forth coming charter and want to be in a position to dictate terms.
As for the gambling machines, well, Labour really are in a bad place to be talking about the ‘sin’ of gambling, since they were very keen on Super Casino’s.

As posted previously the BBC had a piece earlier in the week on the Daily Politics in which the public’s fixation with poor Ed’s ugliness was deplored and the public urged to listen to his policies rather than be put off by his looks.
Then we have WALO ( What a load of ) Balls playing Schumann on radio 2. Plus of course Ed on Desert Island Discs and the non stop, month long, Energy Price Freeze offensive mounted by Labour with their allies the BBC.
It seems beyond doubt that the BBC and Labour spin doctors have decided that Ed, and Labour in general , need greater but carefully selected exposure, to show their human and caring side, if they are to win the next election. The reward for the BBC, in return for their totally partisan services, will be increased funding and , most importantly for the future. a controlling position on new media platforms.
We can only hope that people do start to listen to Ed and realise what a dangerous man he really is. He does believe that it is the duty of clever people like himself to tell the rest us what to do, hence the gambling sortie, because we are too stupid to think for ourselves. He has no idea at all about how the real world works, how real jobs and wealth are created, how a large public sector strangles a country. He is just like his father , an intellectual Marxist, who, wether he loves his country or not , poses real danger to it.

I’m pleased this has been picked up on here. Yesterday I was listening to the news on Five Live and lo and behold out of nowhere comes a clip of Red Ed with this bizarre twenty second “sympathy to all and sundry” at the Apollo.
The whole thing sounded synthetic nonsense and frankly a kind of product placement.
It was really very odd, and surely if there had been fatalities as per the Glasgow helicopter crash it would have been the job of the PM to speak on behalf of the nation.
I’m getting slightly concerned about quite what Lynton Crosby is playing at. He should be firing a warning shot over Five Live’s bow straight away.
There is little doubt of Five Live political allegiance.

” out of nowhere comes a clip of Red Ed with this bizarre twenty second “sympathy to all and sundry” at the Apollo. ”
Yes, when labour was last oficially in power, conservatives were an edangered species – never heard or seen unless to be ridiculed, always the microphone was slid under a labour nose or the labourite was wisked at speed into the welcoming, warm, cosy studio, all expenses and appearance fee paid. Down and out conservatives were held at the end of a deliberately crackly phone line. Now that labour is supposed to be in opposition , not much has changed.

Its not all Miiliband, Last weeks cancellation (since Bob Flowers suddenly dropped out of Desert Island Disks, (for personal reasons) Kirsty Young has has to plumb new depths to find a replacement. Last week ‘Old labour’ was back with a Welsh ‘poet’ who informed us all that her chosen school was a local comp (and yes private was the option) and then of couse her father faced ‘racial discriminmation; by the hands of one BBC Lord Reith (Kirsty Young can be heard nodding on the radio), and how despite this severe handicap they still managed a large house (with lake) in Wales on the bare minimum of a paltry BBC wage. (Music Interval – warble from a Blackbird). Not said; but understood by this listener was that Neil Kinnock would have been the best prime minister – if it was not for those English who always turn up at the ballot box and discriminate against the Welsh! How annoying on your Desert Island is that!… and no we won’t take the Bible – just a trunk of past Milliband speeches and a packet of birdseed please. And there you: old Lord Reith who is behind all this racial discrimination against the Welsh! Nothing against the Welsh personally mind, it’s just Labour, Kinnock and birdseed which don’t seem worthy for Desert Island Disks.

” All my thoughts are with them…..” They did not die Ed. The ceiling crashed down on top of them…….rather like what would happen if you became Prime Minister.

I want all helicopters banned..as well as all upper circles demolished until Billy Connolly comes back to play that Glasgow charity bash for all helicopter survivors, that I just KNOW he`s planning.
Lorraine Kelly to host with Simple Minds to headline.
Billy would surely be doing nothing less from LA.
And I make no apology for taking the top off the Albert Hall…if it saves just one luvvie from a nosebleed, then I for one am unrepentant.
Maybe the top tier of wedding cakes need to be removed whilst we await the results of the enquiries to come…can`t be too careful, you know!

Well I think it would be a nice gesture for Billy Connolly to leave his working class five star hotel in LA, get into his working class chauffeur driven limousine to go to the airport and sit in the working class First Class cabin all that way to Scotland so he can bask in the adoration of his working class fans with whom he shares a particular life style.
