The Coalition is far from perfect and I am no fan of either Party but credit where credit is due! However Labour needs us to believe that if there is economic growth, it is the wrong sort of growth. They need us to swallow the “cost of living crisis” now that they cannot sell us PLAN B. But when the Coalition then produces figures that at least indicate that INCOMES have risen ahead of inflation over the last year, the BBC leads with Labour denying this. Labour, of course, has little interest in INCOMES, for them it is all about WELFARE. Naturally, as Government seeks to reduce WELFARE then there will indeed be a “cost of welfare” crisis for the idle. But Labour spins this as if it applied to all working people and the BBC is VERY quick to run with this propaganda line. Shame on them. They have an obligation to be neutral, instead they shill for Miliband.
LABOUR’S LITTLE HELPERS…
Bookmark the permalink.
David, there’s a very interesting section on the midweek Open Thread, where “Wayne”, a man living on £12,000 and existing on only soup, turns out to be Wayne Grills, Deputy Town Mayor of Kingsbridge… and a member of the Labour Party.
Yet he was presented as just an ordinary Joe on last night’s News at Ten.
It looked phoney at the time, because he was rather large for someone who lived on soup.
He’s also the owner of Pizza Planet in Kingsbridge.
Might explain why he’s such a chubby little bounder.
Please tell – can one assume the ‘hard working admin’ from this blog do not personally have the time to make the BBC personally aware of the many obvious bias complaints highlighted here? Do most bloggers here complain personally to the BBC? Does anyone know whether the BBC also monitor this site? It is amazing just how many clear left advantage bias occurrences are highlighted on this blog. It would be such a waste if the BBC were not made aware. One has to conclude with the sheer amount of blog inches about BBC left bias throughout the web and msm it has to be a deliberate corporation policy not to give a dam about abusing their licence obligations in this way. The BBC just has to be institutionally riddled with a left slant bias agenda throughout the organisation be it TV, Radio or web productions.
Only last week I got the following bias admission from them in reply to my last complaint. They admitted to me they got it wrong again and altered their website page to rectify the bias within an hour of me sending them the complaint:
THIS IS A COPY & PASTE OF EXTRACT THE BBC REPLY -(SENT ME PERSONAL EMAIL – 17 Jan 2014 -)
Many thanks for your email and for drawing this to our attention.

” Does anyone know whether the BBC also monitor this site? ”
Err….do indeed, in fact their employees shit-stir within these pages.
If I was running a £4 billion protection racket, I’d make sure all criticism was monitored, especially being part of an FOI exempt system.

Oh a new bbc sponsored troll.
You are all getting edgy.
could it be that the status quo is going to be blown assunder?
Your lot, and the toerag quangogracy are going to blown out of the water, and will have to compete in the real world – where you have to bring to the table saleable skills.
In other words, you’ll be toast!
Enjoy while you can, but you will be told your pension will be bought in line with the private sector, i.e. Fuck All!
The BBC will insist that Mr E Miliband is clothed in royal velvet even when we can all see that it is thread bare, tired old, dressing gown that isn’t fit for the recycling bin.
Labour are running out of road on economic matters with a tide of good news threatening to engulf them. They have now where to go on immigration or welfare or Europe . So what next?
Without the unquestioning support of the BBC, Labour would be facing a disaster at the next election. If we are fortunate enough to have a Tory government after the next election, the BBC must be got rid of as a matter of priority owing to its continuous undermining of democracy in our country for the past 40 years.
I hate the BBC and the Labour party as much as the next man. If not more so. But I worry that you’re not taking the electoral boundaries into your considerations. There are many places up north where a potato with a red rosette could get elected to parliament. There is a high probability that Miliband will get in.
The Beeb droids aren’t idiots, they know which side their bread is buttered on. Only one political party will guarantee big rises in funding for the BBC for the foreseeable future.
True…we need to remember that.
A huge client state now relies on the witches teat that the BBC exemplifies.
The more crime-the more parasites on the Labour payroll.
And if we get an amnesiac class about what Labour did to this country over 13 years…and they vote in the spuds, the mushrooms and the same old names and families-we`ll deserve nothing less than a break up of the country into those who`ll deal with Labour..and those who want them to continue to splay this country for the EU and/or the Saudis and their “faith”.
News page top headline:
Pay rising in real terms – coalition
The government says most workers have seen their take-home pay rise in real terms in the past year but Labour calls their figures “dodgy”. 1635
Analysis: Are we better off?
Doesn’t seem to fit with your narrative?
And meanwhile on radio and TV…..? (for those of us who do not want to read the BBC news website)
Another new pseudonym?
And what would Labour know about dodgy figures then…or dodgy dossiers for that matter.
Yet no media to take them apart over it.
Heard Crystal Tipps and Alistair this morning on Today…Alistair is and was a failed businessman and farmer, who only gets vast wads of our cash for nothing.
Yet he dares to suggest how the Royal Opera House might get more money or more poor types through the doors…and the ROH cowslip doesn`t even deal with his lazy impetinence or his non-record on anything to do with creating, making or selling.
Crystal Tipps needs to be told three times that Quadrilla were NOT just “fracking last year”….but were finding oil too, and this is perfectly OK with all but her researchers from last year..armed with Greenpeace type leaflets that the BBC seem to think were press releases or scientific papers.
The thick shit just didn`t have the first clue about maths, science, law, geology-but trundled on with the saem circular twaddle, despite our patient Quadrilla telling her three times.
Yet she too is well-paid to stay stupid, phoning in her prejudices, her ignorance and all round lack of fitness to do basic research or radio…just get an email from Moonbat or what have you.
WTF are we paying for?…and how long will we continue to be taunted by BBC Lefties with a highlighter pen and Geldofs signed photo.
Dump the f***ers while we still have a country
No more mention on the BBC of Plan B because they might be faced with the embarrassing prospect of having to challenge Labour with it.
And on the employment figures – miraculous when you consider continuing mass immigration – where did the ‘but they’re only part-time jobs’ argument go?
Interesting on last night’s news and on this morning’s Today the BBC’s reporters were pushing the idea that it doesn’t matter what figures either of the parties come up with, people will vote according to whether they feel better off.
So there you have it. The BBC keep the ‘Cost of Living Crisis’ high on the agenda, then suggests that if people don’t feel better off then obviously there is only one party who have the answer – all done in the best subliminal taste, of course.
But what a numpty is our Dave. Another golden chance to give the country the dose of reality it needs and he fluffs it. What is it about the word ‘austerity’ people find so difficult to understand?
They could reduce or abolish the tax on TVs to help the ” cost of living ” .
Plan B has been tried – in France with predictable consequences. I wonder if the beeb might ask the many poor unemployed saps in France if they ‘feel’ better off? Or the millions in Southern Europe who are trapped in a currency union with Germany.
Saw Grayson Perry make a mockery of us all today as “he” collected a gong from Prince Charles for services to publicity.
My impression is he is 60% Harriet Harman and 40% Tessa Jowell…obviously the look if you want to get on with the BBC!
Grayson Perry – symbol of how low this country has sunk after 13 years of anything goes, chaos-inducing Marxism.
sorry ChrisH, having listened to his Reith lectures on Radio 4 I am rather impressed with the Grayson Perry, he is no fool and he knows exactly about the art market and the emperor’s new clothes.
If he knows so much why does he dress in little girls clothes — in public ?
Every time I watched S4C he would pop up, or so it would seem. As it was in Welsh didn’t have a clue & couldn’t be arsed to get my father in law to translate it for me.
Newsnight tonight is saying Labour is proposing to wipe out the deficit. You couldn’t make it up.
Where did we get the record deficit from? Gordon and Tony’s overspending – sorry I mean ‘investment’.
The BBC needs us to believe that if there is economic growth, it is the wrong sort of growth.
There, fixed that for you, DV.
U-turning Balls: uncriticised by BBC-NUJ.
After years of Labour government (aided by Beeboids) pursuing permanent deficit public finance, Beeboids report this new Balls U-turn pronouncement as though it is a mere Labour Party tweak.
“Ed Balls will pledge to ‘balance the books’ by 2020”
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-25885606
Ed Balls’ pledge to increase top rate of income tax to 50p is now top news at the BBC website.
It appears Newsnight invented a story about the 2020 deadline for Labour’s deficit reduction.
May I suggest they try reporting news that has happened rather than second-guessing news that might?
The BBC reporting news? That would be a first !!
I am sure the BBC financial pages Will be reporting this endorsement of Ed Balls’ policy.
