    Just as the BBC omits facts about the continual gang raping of the Nigerian Christian schoolgirls, by Islamic jihadists … even on occasion mentioning “marrying” … one has to assume, knowing full well what that means

    http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/boko-haram-329-schoolgirls-stolen-3489356

    ” the girls that have been kidnapped are being raped up to 15 times a day by their captors and that those amongst them that have refused to convert to Islam are having their throats cut (read the testimony of one of the girls that ‘’escaped’’
    page 8 of the Vanguard Newspaper, (5th April, 2014).”

    more uncomfortable truths for them … (to omit?)

    At c8.10pm on the BBC News Channel – BBC Political Correspondent Iain Watson editorializes in a typical unthinking biased BBC pro-EU pro-Labour way.

    According to Watson : Labour “knows” that the EU is not the top priority for voters.

    What, Watson?

    Don’t you mean – ‘Labour says….’ or ‘Labour thinks….’

    Not for you to say – ‘Labour knows…’

    Afterall, these are the EU elections you are talking about.

    Could it be that Ed Miliband/BBC have written off the elections as a win for UKIP and are desperate to discount the damage?

    Funny how the pro-EU lobby always says that the EU is not such a big issue. Then fight tooth and nail to stop us voting on it.

    Well worth watching at how low the left will go:
    Labour denies election broadcast is negative and a smear

    Remember all the fuss over the death of Tony Benn ?

    His period in Ministerail office was mostly a failure – very flash, but mostly nutty.

    But he WAS memorable (along with Peter Shore) for working across the aisle with people such as Enoch Powell in opposing Europe, especially during the 1975 referendum.

    Yet that seemed to get little reference in the BBC’s endless eulogies for Benn ?

    I wonder why ?

    The BBC – twisting the news every chance it gets.

    This morning at 7:05 the slime balls at the state branch of anti semitsm.co.uk went too far! They announced that an Israeli anti terrorist team is on the way to Nigeria to help find the kidnapped girls. But the “reporter” injected his own completely unsourced and unattributed opinion saying that the arrival is bound to cause controversy between Christians and Muslims! President Jonathan welcomed the news about the Israelis saying that it shows the whole world is taking notice. So when is the miserable state broadcaster shutting down and why do we put up with them?
