It’s Wednesday and it’s also Budget Day! I see that the comrades at the BBC have sent Evan Davies up to Newcastle to gain insight into opinion on the state of the economy. Ah, that impartiality – I’m just surprised it wasn’t Liverpool airport! Anyway, a new Open Thread for you!
MID WEEK OPEN THREAD….

Oh bugger, you just know the bBC are to going to go OTT with this story regards….Racism.
G4S guards face plane death charges
Got to love the picture of the dead man holding up his child, gee remind me again what he got sent to prison for bBC. What a nice man, just think if he hadn’t (like all these illegals) tried to get thrown off the plane and thus remain in the UK, he would be still alive.
Yes, I too can see a rolling stone of grievances, race hustlers, Matrix/Cherie and Phil Shiner…with Al Sharpton, the Mau Mau and Friends of Trayvon Martin on imported draught.
What do we want?-a return to Jack Straw and Jacqui Smiff , all necessary state powers retuned to the Howard League, Harry Fletcher at the Probation Service?
And no private G4S involvement, whether they`re any good or not( as if the State were any good when THEY had to carry or cage these Guardian meal tickets).
When do we want it?…preferably before Charles Clarke gets back as a consultant to give Ian Brady his State funeral.
F*** Off Beeb….we know what your game is…but they`re rolling the Stone of grievance and compo, of trashing a whitey in uniform and letting the “asylum seekers” all in to stay!
Except for Robert Spencer or Pamela Geller to give us a talk…
The bBC fears about Russian expansion.
Ukraine crisis: Could Trans-Dniester be next?
Russia’s annexation of Crimea has led some to wonder whether any other former Soviet countries could follow. The separatist region of Trans-Dniester has already offered itself to Moscow – a request which Russia has promised to consider.
So a breakaway part of the Soviet Union (Moldovia) which itself has a region which wants to break away (the part in question above) warrants the bBC to write a sob piece. Here is what the bBC doesn’t tell you about Moldovia:
Romania Urges EU Membership Date For Moldova
Romanian Passports For Moldovans: Entering the EU Through the Back Door
Here is a bBC article (Not linked above) on Moldovia:
Alarm at EU passports for Moldova
“This mass granting of the Romanian citizenship is a way to assimilate the Republic of Moldova,” (into the EU)
Wouldn’t it be nice if for once the bBC gave you all the facts on a subject.
Regards the search for the Missing Aircraft you really know the bBC are scraping the barrel when they headline these two stories:
Video from a Royal Australian Air Force spotter plane as it searches the southern Indian Ocean for traces of missing flight MH370
Norwegian ship is first to arrive in area of southern Indian Ocean in search for missing Malaysian plane
FFS, bBC
I really don’t know what’s going on with this, and the media seem determined to ensure one remains so with a blizzard of non news.
I’m presuming a lot can change quite quickly, but this ‘large’ debris was surely spotted long enough ago that by now someone has a clue what it is?
Seems like every storm-washed container is enough to scramble the entire MSM on this, followed by a period of breathless anticipation that suggests the search & rescue efforts are being conducted by pedalo.
“…Seems like every storm-washed container is enough to scramble the entire MSM on this, followed by a period of breathless anticipation that suggests the search & rescue efforts are being conducted by pedalo.”
I shouldn’t, but I LOL’d.
bBC shedding faux tears for a drunk Trout.
Derry woman left in bus lane calls for police officers to be sacked
Now have a look at the video, not only was miggins running around the street seconds before she was picked up by the fuzz, where she was deposited had a car in front of her and a car behind. Not exactly a death risk, unless of course she slipped on the pavement and sued the council for thousands (which funny enough is a huge money maker in NI)
But to the bbC this is a human rights crime and of course this woman is looking at a cash hand out (to spend on booze?) with the bBCs help.
What do you know she has form:
Intensive care patient beaten by partner and sister as he lay semi-conscious in Altnagelvin Hospital, court told
The partner and sister of a man with serious head and spinal injuries have appeared in court charged with attacking him as he lay semi-conscious in bed in intensive care….District Judge Barney McElholm was told that during the attack at Altnagelvin Hospital in Londonderry on Saturday night, medical staff lay across the patient’s head in an attempt to protect him as his partner and sister punched and slapped him and tried to pull out medical drips attached to him.
Bridget Mongan (23), from Stanley’s Walk in Derry, and Eileen Stokes (29), from Mourne Park in Newtownstewart, Co Tyrone, are jointly charged with attempted grievous bodily harm with intent on Patrick Mongan last Saturday night.
They are further charged with assaulting two nurses and a doctor and with disorderly behaviour in the unit.
A police officer told Derry Magistrates Court that Stokes, who has 27 previous convictions, is Mr Mongan’s partner, and Mongan, who has 13 previous convictions,
Gee, what an innocent girl, well according to the bBC
PSNI – THE ENVY OF THE WORLD
By David Vance On March 19th, 2014 at 2:59 pm
“You hear all kinds of boasting from those at the top of the PSNI as to how wonderful it is – how “world class” this castrated Police Force is compared to that which went before it. Here we see the PSNI in action…gosh, I wonder have recruiting standards fallen and if so, why? The woman is left in a BUS lane!!!! Yes, she is clearly drunk or drugged or both BUT all the same surely to goodness this is no way to deal with ANY member of the public?”
http://www.atangledweb.org/?p=49370
And ?
Did you watch the video Alba? She runs across the road from left to right (without looking behind her) and then cuts across to the policecar. She is able to run, never mind walk and is perfectly able to get up from the side of the road and walk away, she didn’t . Not only that but there are parked cars either side of her.
She isn’t the victim the bBC make her out to be, I mean lets be honest do the police mistreat ehr in any way.. why that would be a no.
Say hi to you wife for me.
Thanks for such a prompt response. Perhaps you should direct your comments to DV – it is after all his views I posted.
(Why must you always make a comment about my wife – not bothered that you do, just curious?)
Just followed your link, appologies fro presuming you wrote that snippet.
“David Vance @DVATW 3h
@BlueArmyFaction Agreed. She needs to stand on her own two feet…well…you know that I mean. Promote the officers.”
Looks like DV is now suggesting that the police officers involved should be rewarded. No wonder he failed to get elected if his views change so quickly.
If “You And Yours” were a person, it would have to be Vera Baird by her housekeepers laundry basket, and on her mobile fomenting faux-outrage.
Todays bitchfest reveals that DWP numbers are not yet free enough, that the Co-Op didn`t embalm people but cherged them for it…not that anybody noticed-BUT IF THEY HAD, it would have been a scandal….so let`s give it a go two years on shall we?
The final one before I pined for a job to get me away from this crap was about disabled people not being able to get carers in free with them to watch Bill Bailey in York?
Surely this is NHS free by now?…What?…theatres not letting “carers” in free?
Bloody Private sector eh?
I note that Engelbert Humperdinck is selling tickets for his Radio 2 concert.
I taught an SEN kid once….so surely am entitled to a Blue Badge to go and see comedians and concerts for free now.
We could all get in free at the BBCs Theatre now I expect-do we not all “care”for each other on this very site.
Free Humperdinck gig?….thank you Beeb!
It was a common BBC way of making a story of people they dislike appearing bad when there is no story at all. Except they forgot to edit the film, allowing us to see the woman left between parked cars, saving pedestrians from tripping over her.
The bBC airs a racist report on Manchester Library
School Reporters preview Manchester’s £48m library
See if you can spot what the bBC would term a racist news report.
Splendid-I believe there`s a large fine on some books as taken out by the town of Eccles nearby!
That should cover it-a few million out of the ATM may be a bit muddy or soiled, but still should cover it all.
A delight to know that the Levenshulme-and indeed the Longsight-efforts to tunnel under ATMs, and then to drive clear away in a JCB has finally worked.
Looking forward to Crimewatch-lots of hi-viz and hard hats, and clueless supermarket wallahs in the badlands of Manchester.
Wonder if the south has the nous to run such comedy capers in consecutive years?…maybe they worried about those new coins that will prevent fraud apparently, and planned ahead?
Got to be a film here….Eccleston, Gallagher brothers and Peter Kay?
Did they say “slope”?
I came home about an hour ago from a trip to the DIY shop after being stuck in traffic during the school home run.
I can assure you that this area isn’t racist at all, in fact of all the school kids I saw not one contributed to a racist experience.
“New comedy W1A is an almost too-sharp satire of ‘Brand BBC.’

Hold that thought… a special guest cameo is suggested….

Ooops, sorry… they have already sussed that one out.
Whilst funny, Guido’s little investigative summary* seems all too scarily like the descent into a real hell.
Skynet has sussed that repeating it often enough does work, especially when those that notice are on a wee political blogging site and those whose postal votes swing elections get the narrative morning to night via a £4Bpa PR propaganda machine.
* A few fun comments there. I liked the ‘Lost in Space’ one. But there was also a great effort by the somewhat predictably-named, po-faced ‘Anon’, still trying to bolster Shouty’s ‘tell it often enough’ claims..

I’m afraid its in the BBC’s charter. Under Impartiality.
For 60 minutes a day they have to stop promoting Labour.
‘A review of this site shows that you have been doing it for years’
And yet in you I have an apparently loyal and avid follower, and also one ‘like’.
Weird, eh?
I am indeed also a devotee of saying ‘it’ over and over again, yes. Repetition for effect and all that.
However, if invoking Mandy Rice Davies to say so, I do so on the basis of truth and accuracy.
The BBC who you seek to defend by the time honoured practice of the flattering name homage (makes a change from the Borg Box) and less flattering ad hom does of course do it too often via lie and professional compromise.
My contribution is also on a by choice basis, and roughly £4Bpa cheaper.
Thank you for being on permanent station and so ably bringing this distinction to the fore so quickly.
Sorry, there is more…
‘an almost too-sharp satire ‘
Guessing, code for… ‘Oh god, the peons will realise it’s just like that’.
‘if only she can be prized away from ITV’
Well, at the BBC, it’s prizes for all… well, some…
‘I couldn’t help but ponder that his real-life counterparts – naming no names – enjoy hefty six-figure salaries for doing who knows what at a time when the BBC has announced plans, in effect, to close down an entire channel.’
Still, reality does bite.
‘It probably goes without saying that she is a big Snog Marry Avoid? fan’
So that’ll be her… and Danny Cohen. Speaking for the nation between them.
But my real fave was the homage to all good BBC interactive reaction to satire…

I wonder if someone upstairs saw the way this was headed… downstairs… and had one of those whispered corridor conversations no one admits to or can remember, but swear blind can never happen because, well, they just can’t.
Just watched it on iPlayer.
Blimey.
That there is a lot of money for a premise designed to appeal to roughly 20,000 uniquely employed people, and make sense to maybe the same number again who have a passing interest in what they get up to with a force-extorted £4Bpa.
The other 69,960,000 possible viewers clearly deemed pretty superfluous.
Unquestionably high production values, and access to locations most would die for, but despite being perhaps more aware than some thanks in no small measure to this site, I’d be amazed if most of any public audience had a clue who was who and what was going on. Or cared.
All I came away with was an overwhelming sense of vast numbers of overpaid unpleasant corporate back-stabbers, idiots and yes-people in endless pointless meetings, doing little more than making the farcical tragic. All topped off by an invisible entity called ‘Tony’ so out of touch and astoundingly unpresent he may as well have been The Wizard of Oz.
So… nailed it.
Not, I suspect, in the way actually envisaged or intended.

“One of the themes that will run through W1A is something that clearly consumes all the suits at Broadcasting House – the forthcoming renewal of the BBC charter in 2016”
Yes, that was indeed mentioned a few times.
“But the problem with W1A is that unshakeable feeling that we are being taken for a ride.”
And yes again.
Which for the BBC, may be a bigger problem of their own creation to handle. Again.
Maybe they could get the new batch of a Newsnight and Panorama production teams to start an internecine rats in a sack contest?
Nowt like life reflecting art.
For the first time in months I caught a bit of the Jeremy Vine show, just the last 15 minutes and yes more pro immigration sob stories ….I remembered why I don’t listen anymore.
It was background on the Radio 4 series ‘Three Pounds In My Pocket’….. “Stories about the early arrivals in the 1950’s They recall their first impressions of the country that once ruled over their own, the shocking housing conditions, the curiosity of neighbours and also the memories of casual racism and animosity. These men led the way for the three million people of South Asian descent who live in Britain today”
….I know lets spent some more licence fee revenue on a series that only 5% of the population and the bleeding heart metrosexual liberals at the bBC would be interested in, seriously who else really cares? Why Radio 4 why not the Asian Network? Would they broadcast similar about the struggles of our indigenous ancestors? ….Thought not….
Anyway if it was as bad as programs like this and bBC drama’s of the time portray, why the hell did they stay?

To the bBC, Muslims can rob,rape, murder,oppress and abuse anybody they want and they will still be the victims.
INBBC’s Casciani, and ‘Newsnight’: politically sympathetic to Islamic jihadists still.
This up-dated, politically schitzophrenic piece censors out phrase ‘Islamic jihad’ from first part of this article describing actions of a murderous Muslim, who was partly based in Crawley.
Casciani is keen to put this Islamic jihad-appeasing line:-
“But the idea of a direct line – a thread linking al-Qaeda, the Syrian jihad and a threat to British national security, isn’t universally accepted.” -Of course, it’s not universally accepted, Casciani: there are millions of Muslims who won’t accept it. So what?That doesn’t mean that Islamic jihadists are not as much, if not more of a threat, in U.K now than there were at 7/7, 2005. To suggest otherwise, is to be appeasing.
Casciani and ‘Newsnight’: forever forging Islam-political ‘left’alliance.

What the bBC screams out:
Opium production jumps near British base in Afghanistan
The opium-growing area around Britain’s main base in Afghanistan nearly quadrupled between 2011 and 2013, the UK government has said.
What the bBC doesn’t mention from May 2012:
British troops ‘to end routine Afghan patrols in nine months’
British soldiers are set to be taken off routine day-to-day patrols in Afghanistan within nine months, defence sources said today.
They would hand over the lead security role to Afghan police and troops in the last district of the Helmand province in which UK forces operate.
The bBC, the traitors within our midst.
bBC headline:
Dutch politician Wilders accused of discrimination
A group representing Moroccans living in the Netherlands says it will file a complaint of discrimination against the populist politician, Geert Wilders.
I wonder why the bBC didn’t report about how Birmingham Mosque openly discriminated agaisnt that Islamic drag queen on bBC radio of all places.

Oh what do you know:
Al-Sweady Inquiry: Iraq unlawful killings claims dropped
Claims that UK soldiers unlawfully killed Iraqi civilians in 2004 have not been supported by evidence heard by a public inquiry into their deaths, lawyers for their families have said.
So I wonder how the above came about, I wonder if this is one reason:
“The inquiry, set up in 2009, has cost more than £22m to date.”
And then you have the bbC headlines such as these:
Legal aid changes deny access to justice, says Law Society
Legal aid cuts: ‘Justice will become a luxury, not a right’
The bBC and their ilk love to bemoan so called fat cats, yet remain silent on these wankers who milk the legal Aid system in which to fatten their wallets. A little like people who work for the bBC.
Now I’ve had a butchers at the Guardian compare how they begin their article on this subject with how the bBC does, want to guess which one is the most confusing:
Guardian
A year-long public inquiry into the most serious allegations made against British soldiers in Iraq stalled dramatically on Thursday, when lawyers representing Iraqi families withdrew their claim that the troops had killed unarmed civilians that had been captured and brought back to an army base.
bBC
Claims UK soldiers unlawfully killed Iraqi civilians in 2004 have not been supported by evidence heard by a public inquiry into their deaths, lawyers for their families have said.
The BBC sleight-of-hand with a news story. A prime example of once you know the BBC is biased, it screams at you.
Apologies for repeating myself from an earlier thread, but the opportunity was too good to miss.

To quote Tony Hall (see earlier ‘Does Bull**** Have a Hallmark?’ thread): ‘‘Nothing makes the case for the BBC more eloquently than what we do in news.’

Meet the violent Turkish drama that has enchanted Afghanistan’s children.
Yes, of course, let’s go with… ‘enchanted’, shall we?
The thing the bBC, don’t mention is that series is infamous for its anti-Western/Anti-Semitic hero. Imagine if this was a TV series in the Uk where the hero went around killing Muslims and Blacks. Why the bBC would be at the front of the queue demanding it be banned.
Excerpt from Ephraim Hardcastle, ‘Daily Mail’:-
“Newsnight’s Guardian-trained editor, Ian Katz, is keen on diversity.

Excerpt from Ephraim Hardcastle, ‘Daily Mail’:-
“Major Richard Streatfeild is accused by Today’s John Humphrys of ‘deliberately deceiving listeners’ by failing to mention equipment shortcomings during regular dispatches to Radio 4 from Afghanistan’s Sangin province.
“Isn’t the BBC to blame?
“Expecting a serving officer to broadcast objectively from a war zone – with the enemy listening in – is naïve, if not irresponsible.”

Heard this earlier in the week.
Probably the worst interview I`ve heard in years in that the serving army officer at the time turns out to be subject to a Freisler-type inquisition from the worst of liberal traitor.
As if the BBC held godless, bloodless atheist court-martials on account of their being somehow above the Army and those people and soldiers that this man was paid to defend.
In any decent world, the likes of Humphrys would be hog-tied and left outside the East London Mosque on Friday by way of our atoning for creating a media class that behave as he did.
Compare and contrast his interviewing of a Choudhury or even Rigbys murderers, were we fool enough to let him.
An abject old fool in a slanket-and fully deserving of a burqa with a flap cut out of it.
Streatfield at least now knows the nature of the BBC as it presented itself as he was risking his life for us….so let`s hear no more crap about the World Service.
The BBC is Bin Ladens favoured vehicle for ever-and Kim Jong Un still has something to learn from it.
The main “shared” item on the BBC home page website is “Row over Bear and Bingo”. It doesn’t feature at all in the list of the 10 most “read” items. We need to know how many items are “shared” and how many are “read”, I would expect many more read than shared.

BBC Midlands today @6.30 reports that schools in Stoke On Trent are amongst some of the poorest performing schools in England.
Imagine my surprise when the report shows a bunch of overwhelmingly white English boys and girls in the classroom
But wait! This is not one of the failing schools but one of the very few that is judged outstanding!
I wonder why they did visit and show the pupils from one or other of the MAJORITY failing schools.
Anyone want to guess why?
bBC Points West (cue serious, concerned, shocked looks on presenters faces) reports on an attack by a woman on two muslim women in a Poundstrechers queue.
Sympathetic interview with women in profile only who are now too scared to go out and work, after what looks like just a slap (see where this is going?)
I in no way uphold what this woman did, but we only get to hear one side of the story, the side that the bBC of course never fail to question, sympathy, sympathy….
We’re told such attacks in Bristol are on the increase, yet last nights report on child trafficking we weren’t allowed to see the faces of the perpetrators or indeed told their ethnicities, more double standards from the INbBC…

It must have cost licence-payers a packet, and it wasn’t tax-free:-
‘TURKS & CAICOS’ the stilted play by David Hare (BBC 2 tonight), was unconvincing, poorly scripted, poorly acted, but expressed the politically ‘utopian’ leftist propaganda so endorsed by Beeboids.
Ostensibly set in a post 9/11 world, the enemy of the piece were not the Islamic jihadists, not at all; the enemy of the piece were the British and American authorities, so the message of the piece sits well with daily Beeboid propaganda on this. We can expect more commissions for Mr Hare from Beeboids.
British people’s BBC tax used to pay for programmes in Tamil in India.
Increasingly, British licence-payers’ money is being diverted by BBC away from being spent on programmes by and for British people in Britain, to be spent on BBC World Service, and on the BBC’s global broadcasting empire such as (to take one but small example)-
“New BBC Tamil series chronicles Tamil film comedy”

Not much else on so I watched Bluestone 42 (BBC3)
A government minster is paying a visit to the bomb disposal team in Afghanistan.
Mary (the padre).. “I’m not showing the minister around… Because if I have to look after him I’ll end up punching the Tory twat in his stupid Tory face… Bloody Tories, cutting benefits, cutting taxes for the rich, and cutting the Army.”
But of course, the minister is black, so Mary goes all gooey and girlie over him.
