START THE WEEK OPEN THREAD…

Sorry for the delay in publishing this NEW Open Thread but I have been watching the euphoria with which the BBC greeted the SNP manifesto launch! The hard left Caledonian marxism from Sturgeon and co seems to stimulate the Comrades. I will now open the floor to YOU!

    Caught the tail end of something with Victoria Derbyshire. They had a panel of seven. Remarkably, I thought I spotted a white male. Shocking. The negativity jarred with the otherwise progressive nature of the panel. ‘He’ could have been LGBTI, of course…

    MORE BBC WEBSITE BIAS: FOOD BANK HEADLINE CLAIM MADE UP
    The BBC website lost all semblance of editorial impartiality yesterday, but how are they faring today? This headline makes their homepage this morning:

    The claim comes from a report by the Trussell Trust, press released this morning as “Food bank use tops one million for first time”. It would be reasonable to assume from both that title and the BBC headline that, currently, one million people are using food banks.

    Four lefties and UKIP’s Paul Nutall. Why does an SNP member get to appear on a QT south of the border and why so much exposure for Nuttily Bennett?

      Unlike UKIP, the Green’s never get labelled a ‘One man Band’ or a ‘One trick Pony’ Party. Its only ever Bennett or Lucas on the ‘A’-List broadcasts in England.

      You are correct about the SNP exposure. It is not warranted. The BBC have given the SNP (a minor ‘Minor Party’, whose voters are about to be grotesquely over-represented in the next parliament) a skewed amount of air time throughout this election campaign, whilst failing to expose through scrutinising their figures, their proposed economic omnishambles.

      And no Lib Dem candidate on QT two weeks before an election? Were they invited? When the LibDem / SNP battles in Scotland could be of so much significance? This stinks to high heaven of leftist, pro Labour bias. Again.

      Watch out for the preselected Labour ‘random’ audience member(s). (Surely a Harperson heckler must get through screening one day? )

    DP: Brillo having revenge on Labour today. He replayed the humiliation of Jamie Reed yesterday, then made that point that Labour refused ‘to put anybody up’, so instead he talked to the BBC’s Ian Watson. Brillo and Watson sneered a lot about ‘Milliband told me… even if he wont talk to you!’ and raked over contradictions in the Labour position. Brillo finished with ‘We’re going to pull the plug on you now, Ian!’ Labour wont be pleased
