I listened to about 15 minutes, through an unfunny pro-EU rant and on to an unfunny point of view from a pro-strike NHS doctor. That was all my blood pressure could stomach. Did I mention the fact that it wasn’t funny?
The BBC has hit upon a great way of making money for Children in Need this year. Remember when Joanna Lumley used to get her kit off if a certain amount in pledges was reached? Well, this year, Camilla Batmanjelly will be stripping off UNLESS £10m is pledged.
Dig deep people.
Has the BBC informed us about whether Children in Need has ever given money to the Batman woman? It would be interesting to know. If so did ‘3 jobs’ sign the cheques?
Hmmm. There was a major terrorist attack on a market in the Hezbollah terrorist stronghold in South Beirut yesterday with 43 people killed and 200 wounded. ISIS claimed responsibility. Here’s the speedy and concerned White House reaction from Ned Price of the National Security Council:
“The United States condemns in the strongest terms today’s horrific terrorist attacks in Beirut, Lebanon, that killed dozens and wounded hundreds more,” said Price.
“We offer our deepest condolences to the families and other loved ones of those killed and injured in this violence. The United States will stand firm with the government of Lebanon as it works to bring those responsible for this attack to justice.”
Now this wringing of hands over a terrorist attack against Hezbollah had me totally gobsmacked because I’d always taken it as read that the US regards Hezbollah as a terrorist organisation – with complete justification since it salivates at the idea of destroying Israel, a US ally, targets Israeli and other Jewish civilians and was responsible for the slaughter of hundreds of US marines and personnel at the US barracks and Embassy in Lebanon in the eighties.
It seems the US is now cuddling up to Hezbollah, as part of the nuclear agreement with Iran, and is trying to ally itself with Iran and Hezbollah against ISIS. So, under Obama, the US is selling Israel out more completely than I’d imagined thus far.
And where does the BBC slot into all this? Well, I scouted around the World Service a bit today and it seems rather detached and indifferent. Outside Source, for example, only got to the story way into the programme, and then only briefly. And here I was thinking that the BBC is deeply in love with Hezbollah. Certainly during the 2006 war it acted like a PR company for the terrorist group, but I guess the BBC’s loathing of Israel had a lot to do with that. Perhaps the BBC is disillusioned with Hezbollah since it hasn’t attacked Israel since. And of course, if the US is now attempting to befriend Hezbollah that will count against the latter with the organisation, since the BBC loathes the US almost as much as Israel.
What does the BBC think of ISIS? And will the BBC cheerlead for ISIS rather than Iran/Hezbollah?
Well, maybe I’m getting ahead of myself here but it seems to me that as the Islamic grip on the BBC tightens we are soon going to have to speculate on whether Sunnis or Shia dominate the corporation and assess BBC propaganda in terms of the Sunni-Shia conflict.
Just listened to the news on radio 4…..BBC going all gaga at this happy-clappy event in Wembley for the Indian PM…..when asked, most referred to him as ‘our leader’……sorry, you are resident in the UK, some for fifty years or so. What gives? Why are you here? i suppose you could say the same for Brits living abroad, but most left for sun and retirement….not fleeing a dirt poor, filthy rat-infested, racist and class ridden hellhole that India still represents in reality. All over the country they came from soothes the presenter…more like the Midlands really.
The BBC has essentially become yet another left wing charity pleading for money to send abroad. Pity is, they’ve lengthened that scope to virtually every other programme they make including some sort of left wing doctrine…
Thank Christ there’s now hundreds of channels to chose from, and I don’t have to suffer the insufferable BBC, and their never ending charity drives…
Funny that it takes a while to notice what should be screamingly obvious in photographs. Such as the black power salute by Stephen Lawrence most often cropped by the BBC.
Here’s another one which seems to have passed everyone by. A photograph of Alan Henning murdered by ‘Jihadi John’ in the news today because he’s been killed, but notice the hand gesture Henning is making on the bonnet of the car. It is the Index finger pointing up.
Yet again there’s a back story which the media is failing to tell us.
Thanks Geoff and Thoughtful. I can only presume Mr Henning didn’t know either, and just thought he would do the same as everyone around him, or there is another story to be told but I won’t wait for the Beeb to educate me on this one.
Funny you should ask that, because someone on the MEN site said exactly the same, proving the media have hardly been effective at educating and informing the public.
R4 6 o’clock news this evening, I learned that “Jihadi John” was nicknamed “Little Mo” at school, was a relatively hard working pupil but that he had “anger issues” – WTF? Who cares?
They should bombard that entire town / city, where ISIS are holed up and they killed this P.O.S., with thermobaric weapons, then move on to the next rat nest.

Email update on the campaign against TV Licences from Caroline Lévesque-Bartlett
‘Hello everyone! Time for a little update.
First of all: congratulations! We have now over 170,000 signatures! (170,445 last time I checked.)
PRESENTATION TO THE PARLIAMENT
Andrew Bridgen has now submitted the petition to the clerks of Public Petitions at the House of Commons. They, in turn, “re-drafted” it. In other words, they took the 800+ words original text and kept precisely 118 of them. It’s a massacre. All the bits about the bullying tactics used by TV licensing, the number of prosecutions and imprisonment each year, the fact that the system is outdated, the last paragraph on bias: it’s all gone! And, of course, the mention of the “fracas” was nixed too (even though this petition would not exist if it had not happened, since the BBC turning a deaf ear to 1 million people was the last straw for me). There is no need to say this is not going down well. Keeping only the blandest most general and inoffensive comments does not qualify as text grooming in my humble opinion. I explained that a petition is not a blank cheque, and as such, the terms cannot be renegotiated to the point of no recognition once it has been signed. 38 Degrees won’t allow it anyway, as they stated: “Once members have signed a petition, it’s important that the meaning of the campaign is not changed. People have already signed your petition calling for a specific thing to happen.”
I’m now waiting for their reply. I’ll keep you informed when they do. All in all, it’s a long process, but as they say “if you want to go far, walk slowly”.
PRESS
A few weeks ago, I noticed something really fishy about the BBC surveys. If you noticed, the BBC released some partial results that were quite favourable to their position. I read the small print (which you should always do) and discovered that these results were not from the public consultation. I contacted the Daily Mail and thankfully, Katherine Rushton agreed to investigate the matter. She then penned an article called “BBC ignored public’s views on its future and instead used paid-for-study to represent the views of the population”, showing the world what a sham this public consultation has been so far. Read it here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3268840/BBC-ignored-public-s-views-future-instead-used-paid-study-represent-views-population.html
Caroline Lévesque-Bartlett started this campaign on the 38 Degrees Campaigns by You website. If there’s an issue close to your heart that you’d like to campaign on, you can start your campaign here.
You beat me to it.
Three minutes in to a new series and they were doing their EU overlord’s bidding.
No comedy whatsoever, just far-left political propaganda.
The BBC is doing its best to downplay Jeremy Corbyn’s comments about the scumbag killed in a drone strike earlier. Here is what they say:
‘Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said it appeared Emwazi had been “held to account for his callous and brutal crimes”.
“However, it would have been far better for us all if he had been held to account in a court of law,” he said.’
Nice one BBC, straight out of the handbook of media messaging that one.
If the boot had been on the other foot and Comrade Corbyn had been kneeling in the sandpit in his orange jumpsuit, I’m sure Emwazi would have furnished him with due process and a trial before twelve of his peers……..or maybe he would have brutally hacked his head off whilst praising Allah. Who can say which.
Where are Songs of Praise now? In fact where are the BBC at all?
The developing anarchy in Calais and elsewhere along the coast is being covered by RT. This is my third recent post on the subject, so apologies for banging on. Here is today’s RT news coverage. Calais report from 04.30 : 09.10 mins. Classic bit of sang froid by a French chap at 07.45 mins.
Even the newspapers are silent on events across the Channel, with the exception of the Express, which at least is giving some exposure to this foretaste of the joy much of Europe has in store thanks to our new guests.
Another puff piece from the BBC about women in sport, this time F1 prompted by Williams test driver Suzie Wolff’s retirement. Let’s remember that Wolff did not get the job because of her talent (best result a 7th in touring cars) but because her husband Toto Wolff just happens to be an ex Williams shareholder and Executive Director of Williams’ engine supplier Mercedes.
I’m all for women drivers in F1, but there has to reason why so far few have made it and it has nothing to do with sexism.
Geoff
Michele Mouton was runner up in the World Rally Championship many years ago; Pat Moss also achieved some good rally results against the men. Danica Patrick has won Indy and NASCAR races in the USA recently.
So women can do it.
If there were any promising young women about I believe they would have no problems getting sponsorship, it would greatly benefit F1 profits if a woman was challenging for the world championship.
Women just do not seem to be interested in motor sports, and who can blame them, I find F1 tedious.
Oisin Tymon sues the BBC and Jeremy Clarkson for racial discrimination and personal injury, thus proving yet again that there’s no such thing as racism.
Thought struck me though when I heard this on the news, Geoff, that this could go rather badly for the BBC now.
Clarkson wins or has a derisory damages award against him: Tymon loses and & the BBC gain no advantage over Clarkson. On the other hand, Tymon wins and is awarded substantial damages: Clarkson has to pay but loses no more face, but so does the BBC. BBC equally culpable, if not more so, for not instantly dismissing Clarkson.
Tymon initially came out a hero from all of this. He’s not looking that way so much now, danger is that he will look like more a bit of a money grabber. Again, not a good reflection on the BBC.
Before I go and curl up with a good book, I have just clicked on Bbc website – ostensibly to see the cricket score – but what caught my eye, on the home page? On the right, you can see Storming across Europe – One Syrian family’s story. Out of idle curiosity, I clicked on that and am then taken to Radio 4 website where I can…wait for it….download 10 episodes of a diary of this family’s “journey to Europe”. I went no further and am nonplussed as to what to make of it all!! What are these journalists trying to do to us? Words fail me. They don’t even have a decent play on now on Friday evenings on Radio 4. It’s a repeat of St Leonard of the Black Theatre! Do I need this? I don’t think so.
Corybyn’s response to that Islamic scum who bit the dust yesterday was interesting, and for once I actually agree with him – to a point…..
Sure, it would have been preferable to have sent in special forces to drag the filthy scum back to England and try him in a court of law, but comrade jezza omitted the bit after he’s found guilty where we slit the fucker’s throat in the middle of Parliament Square.
Jeff Lynne’s ELO playing Mr Blue Sky live in the BBC Studio. Admittedly, having some of the audience clap all the way through the performance did not help but to my ears the levels on some instruments & voices were way off and the whole sound balance seemed off kilter, with way to much bias to bass. I was listening through my PC with a sound system that appears pretty good on most stuff that I listen to but it could be my set up was wrong or losing something. Have a listen yourself and see what you think.
About twenty years ago, it appeared to me that the BBC’s technical mastery was starting to slip badly on Outdoor Broadcasts. Occasional glitches & difficult situations are, I would have thought, inevitable, especially with Outdoor Broadcasts or at venues that are acoustically difficult. They started to become not just poor but disaster prone, most often at the prime annual Glastonbury binge but also regularly on things like the Sunday morning ‘Sunday Worship’ on R4. But this was an in-house set-up, everything should have been perfectly set up and controlled by BBC engineers.
Not a good advertisement for a sustained, let alone an increased, Licence Fee.
The Today programme this morning on an item about junior doctors going on strike, the programme lost the link to the Conservative MP Sarah….sorry have forgotten her name….as she was making her point. It rarely happens to me on the phone that I get cut off, so why don’t the Beeb just use a landline?
That’s the Red button channel, the sound is bad due to digital compression, not enough space on the multiplex. Found that on Rods Hyde Park concert too. If you listen on FM, the sound was excellent, but ahead of the pictures.
I agree about the compression, but I heard it on Steve Wright this afternoon on FM, it sounded dire, I think the problem is that we’re comparing it to the wonderfully produced original.
Those men cast a negative light on our organization as well as on all men and male refugees, who were at our party.
[…] instead of just adversely pointing fingers at those who misbehave, we believe it’s as important for everyone in our civil society to tackle these differences in the daily integration.
For that reason we will increase our efforts to give no space to such behaviour during our upcoming parties and other events. We believe it’s essential to treat each other with respect and share the idea of a general equality between all human beings.
Ha ha ha ha ‘daily integration’! Naïve, clueless simpletons blinded by their self-destructing leftist ideology.
The religion of peace has struck again in Paris….gunfire, explosions at multiple locations and at least 18 dead and possibly hostages taken. How long before those appeasing Muslim lovers at the disgusting BBC warn of a backlash from the far right against the ‘muslim community’….I am utterly sick of f**king ISLAM!!!
I first went to The Mail website , then for a laugh to the BBC to see how they are covering this unfolding story. Very little information on the BBC website far more on the Mail and Sky websites. The BBC is the most over funded organisation yet it is the last place to go for breaking news or any other news for that matter.
Tesco customer is convicted of abusing a mother-of-four in front of her children by shouting ‘Why can’t I see your face?’ at her for wearing a veil as she shopped
26 now dead in Paris interesting to listen to news coverage mentioning everything about terrorism, premeditated, co-ordinated, but absolutely no mention about Muslims or Islam. Certainly no mention of refugees ISIS migration or socialism!
Also hostage taking at the Bataclan Arts centre, looks like the Islam alarm is going off in Broadcasting house,
so you ll read everything but
Explosions near the Stade de France.
Automatic gunfire at the Petit Cambodge restaurant
BBC …………… no … no idea
Funny how just about every news organization, with the exception of ‘the envy of the world’ are reporting that the terrorists opening fire in Paris were shouting Allah Akbar.
I mean why does the BBC do this? it’s an integral party of the story, a dead give away as to who’s responsible and they choose to ignore a salient feature.
It’s as if they were burying their collective heads in the sand and wishing it would all go away.
No wonder so many people choose to get the real news from more reputable outlets.
I was going to comment that perhaps people are jumping to conclusions, if reasonable ones, but that is extremely relevant and the fact that I’m watching the News at Ten without hearing it says all we need to know about the BBC.
The BBC will still not speculate about who might be behind the attacks but are starting to point the finger of blame at France’s foreign policy, particularly regarding Syria. Just when you thought the BBC couldn’t sink any lower it is already trying to make the ‘they had it coming’ case.
Now the BBC tells me there was an attack on a Cambodian restuarant. Earlier on they described it as “Asian”. I can’t be the only one who assumed that meant Indian (aka Pakistani) and that it could be an attack against Muslims. Deliberate misdirection, or am I reading too much into it?
Yes Roland, I was confused when I heard an Asian restaurant had been attacked. I had wondered if this was the start of a rise against immigration. Went to the Telegraph where I got a more truthful and fuller report.
ITV website is saying 35 dead, Sky website says dozens dead……..BBC website still stuck on 18 dead.
And we are forced to pay for this inefiiciency ? I know that if I ever hear that a story is breaking I go to the Sky website first – never to the BBC site
I hope I’m wrong, but I have feeling this is going to run into 3 figures, if 100 people are being held and assuming the captors are armed jihadis, its unlikely this can end well, not forgetting 40 ish are already dead.
How long until Dave utters those immortal words “This has nothing to do with blah blah blah” ?
For God’s sake Mr T , are you so stupid, he is not going to do a running commentary on everything that happens minute to minute. Do you want the Army to go out & shoot all Muslims, just in case,they are all terrorist’s, it will never happen.
Sounds like a plan Eman!
I’m currently cleaning my 12bore – It’s called protecting my home and my family.
“The State” seems to have a problem with this issue!!!!
Essexman
All Thoughtful said was ‘Cameron is far too lazy and corrupt to condemn Islam over these attacks’
He did not ask for the army to go out etc ……….. you added those words .
Keep calm my good man, we have our PM in charge of this country.
Most of you here , must of been NF or BNP , supporters before UKiP , came along, you want the Police & Army to go out & Murder people who you don`t like. No trials , they are moosies , just murder them, all just in case . That is not a civilised way , murdering people you think are terrorists .
And these were the wise words of Essexman to my post yesterday .
“November 13, 2015 at 12:22 pm
I will old son , but if you would like , total closure of the borders , that means , no one leaves or arrives . No foreign hols , no one arriving from abroad , then , if they do arrest & deportation , unless you are a British passport holder returning . That`s the only solution .”
The President of France must have heard you bleats?
As of now upwards of 158 innocent people have been slaughtered by Islamic terrorists in Paris and you have the gall to start whining and claiming that people here want to murder, your words, ‘moosies’.
Take a shower, sober up and consider how stupid you sound.
And just in case you have any doubts, it wasn’t the Amish or the Mormons who committed this atrocity, it was Muslims.
I used to be a very liberal left-wing self-righteous naive student. Then I saw the true nature of Islam. Now I don’t want Islam to grow any further in the UK.
Islam = violent terror.
Not all Muslims are nutjobs, but a good 20% are according to opinion polls. The last thing we need is more muslims. In fact, I’d have no problem with deporting the 20% of psychotic nutjobs that walk among us.
From the Daily Mail’s website:
‘The gunmen shouted ‘Allah Akbar’ and opened fire when they burst into the theatre, one witness said.’
Obviously the BBC has not spoken to that witness.
Nothing to do with Islam of course: It’s about Syria (which is itself Nothing to do with Islam). I dread to think how the BBC will react if it turns out these are not ‘local French Jihadis’, but in fact are recently arrived in the country as, ahem, refugees.
Hollande is said to have gone into a meeting (security bunker hideaway) like politicians do when there’s any danger, to do absolutely nothing useful what so ever – so business as usual !
Governments are supposed to be strategic and the strategy that insane leftie Hollande has overseen has clearly failed. But like all extremist Fascsists he will not be able to accept that he has done anything wrong.
Obama has made his speech doing the usual avoidance of mentioning Islam, all fine words, but the parsnips remain unbuttered.
Lazy corrupt Dave isn’t going to jeapordise his Saudi payout lies through his teeth, while meanwhile tonight his hippy wife has dressed up in a Sari.
Sky news interviewed some French Black guy (Tibo) who was saying “why are you shocked?” “You people in Germany, England, Denmark, this is the future” – cut off dead
BBC reporter tweeting that Hollande is in no doubt who is behind the attacks but he is not saying who. So the tip-toeing continues.
I’m baffled I tell you.
And as we all know, jihad means war. islam is at war with us. I wish the MSM would use the word war because by using the Arabic word, they minimise the danger we are in. These muslim killers are footsoldiers in the war that islam has uniliterally declared against us. As such we should call them what they are, enemy combatants, and treat them and their supporters accordingly.
Round our way it’s the Hutterites. They’re a mean bunch. They raise free range chickens and then wring their necks before selling them to supermarket outlets.
I heard that it is those liberal progressive, gay loving, Anglican Christians who could be responsible. They are always cutting people’s heads off ain’t they? Oh wait….
BBC live just posted this:
‘The Associated Press is reporting a French police official confirming two suicide attacks and one bombing near the Stade de France stadium.’
I think the BBC is going to have to have its face rubbed in it.
Ah. ‘copyright’… So it’s nothing to do with the fact that Google is a Left-wing (while simultaneously rampagingly avaricious) corporation with the morality of the average scorpion?
Right let’s round up these politicians ho have opened the borders and arrest them. This tragedy as inevitable. The people new it would happen the politicians did but didn’t give a damn, they just saw more people = more money.
So then, France has now closed its borders. Bit bloody late Hollande. What a fool. No not foolish. Wilfully revoltingly foolish, he would have known that this incident was always going to happen. People on this site and others were warning that this would happen. Everybody who were not left ing knew this would happen!!
For God’s sake wake up,wake up.
I would like to see the dead people’s families sue the Hollande government for negligence. I want Holland guillotined. I want these political idiots disgraced.
I am bloody raging at this needless loss of innocent life. Do you hear me Cameron/ Markel/Hollande etc (pro unchecked immigration)- BLOODY RAGING.
At the Bataclan, there are apparently 60 – 100 hostages it’s a complicated situation , as the terrorists shoot their hostages one after another.
I seem to remember that a man with a spine who knew what to do called Vladimir Putin gassed an entire theatre then when everyone was knocked out sent the boys in who shot the muzzies and rescued the hostages.
Meanwhile, the Arch bitch of Canterbury has announced that he can no longer carry his crozier because his hands are sore sore from his wringing them, and if this ‘Islamophobic’ reporting doesn’t stop he might not recover by Christmas oops Winterval !
Meanwhile questions are being asked if France was properly prepared for an attack which dare not speak its name. This is despite the fact that the city was flooded with high level Police & military for the upcoming AGW festival where 20 hand wringers (oops,world leaders) are due to gather for a huge lie fest.
And, indeed, His Holiness, Al Gore, was planned to be holding court at the Eiffel Tower this very evening, drumming up trade for the Procession Of Climate Imbeciles in Paris, later this month.
So much for French security – and so much for the other force destroying our society – post-hippy liberalism.
”questions are being asked if France was properly prepared for an attack”
Yes Newsnight switching the blame onto the French authorities for not being properly prepared, instead of condemning the scum we all know are responsible.
If you see my earlier post about this, Paris was flooded with armed Police & military for the spineless politicos, in case they got a paper cut. They were lucky or the death toll could have been much higher.
It’s a packed field, but so far POTUS, BBC and especially Newsnight have managed tonight to show that it is possible to set an already subterranean professional bar so low it would take a drilling rig to locate it.
The ongoing platitudes and dissembling from all the scrabbling PC usual suspects in face of grim reality defies logic.
They seriously seem to think they still have a mandate to ‘lead’ or speak for people who can clearly see just how absent the Emperor’s Clothes are.

R4 6 o’clock news this evening, I learned that “Jihadi John” was nicknamed “Little Mo” at school, was a relatively hard working pupil but that he had “anger issues” – WTF? Who cares?
They should bombard that entire town / city, where ISIS are holed up and they killed this P.O.S., with thermobaric weapons, then move on to the next rat nest.

Email update on the campaign against TV Licences from Caroline Lévesque-Bartlett
‘Hello everyone! Time for a little update.
First of all: congratulations! We have now over 170,000 signatures! (170,445 last time I checked.)
PRESENTATION TO THE PARLIAMENT
Andrew Bridgen has now submitted the petition to the clerks of Public Petitions at the House of Commons. They, in turn, “re-drafted” it. In other words, they took the 800+ words original text and kept precisely 118 of them. It’s a massacre. All the bits about the bullying tactics used by TV licensing, the number of prosecutions and imprisonment each year, the fact that the system is outdated, the last paragraph on bias: it’s all gone! And, of course, the mention of the “fracas” was nixed too (even though this petition would not exist if it had not happened, since the BBC turning a deaf ear to 1 million people was the last straw for me). There is no need to say this is not going down well. Keeping only the blandest most general and inoffensive comments does not qualify as text grooming in my humble opinion. I explained that a petition is not a blank cheque, and as such, the terms cannot be renegotiated to the point of no recognition once it has been signed. 38 Degrees won’t allow it anyway, as they stated: “Once members have signed a petition, it’s important that the meaning of the campaign is not changed. People have already signed your petition calling for a specific thing to happen.”
I’m now waiting for their reply. I’ll keep you informed when they do. All in all, it’s a long process, but as they say “if you want to go far, walk slowly”.
PRESS
A few weeks ago, I noticed something really fishy about the BBC surveys. If you noticed, the BBC released some partial results that were quite favourable to their position. I read the small print (which you should always do) and discovered that these results were not from the public consultation. I contacted the Daily Mail and thankfully, Katherine Rushton agreed to investigate the matter. She then penned an article called “BBC ignored public’s views on its future and instead used paid-for-study to represent the views of the population”, showing the world what a sham this public consultation has been so far. Read it here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3268840/BBC-ignored-public-s-views-future-instead-used-paid-study-represent-views-population.html
Caroline Lévesque-Bartlett started this campaign on the 38 Degrees Campaigns by You website. If there’s an issue close to your heart that you’d like to campaign on, you can start your campaign here.

The BBC is doing its best to downplay Jeremy Corbyn’s comments about the scumbag killed in a drone strike earlier. Here is what they say:
‘Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn said it appeared Emwazi had been “held to account for his callous and brutal crimes”.
“However, it would have been far better for us all if he had been held to account in a court of law,” he said.’
Nice one BBC, straight out of the handbook of media messaging that one.

If the boot had been on the other foot and Comrade Corbyn had been kneeling in the sandpit in his orange jumpsuit, I’m sure Emwazi would have furnished him with due process and a trial before twelve of his peers……..or maybe he would have brutally hacked his head off whilst praising Allah. Who can say which.

Another puff piece from the BBC about women in sport, this time F1 prompted by Williams test driver Suzie Wolff’s retirement. Let’s remember that Wolff did not get the job because of her talent (best result a 7th in touring cars) but because her husband Toto Wolff just happens to be an ex Williams shareholder and Executive Director of Williams’ engine supplier Mercedes.
I’m all for women drivers in F1, but there has to reason why so far few have made it and it has nothing to do with sexism.

Michele Mouton was runner up in the World Rally Championship many years ago; Pat Moss also achieved some good rally results against the men. Danica Patrick has won Indy and NASCAR races in the USA recently.
So women can do it.
If there were any promising young women about I believe they would have no problems getting sponsorship, it would greatly benefit F1 profits if a woman was challenging for the world championship.
Women just do not seem to be interested in motor sports, and who can blame them, I find F1 tedious.

Thought struck me though when I heard this on the news, Geoff, that this could go rather badly for the BBC now.
Clarkson wins or has a derisory damages award against him: Tymon loses and & the BBC gain no advantage over Clarkson. On the other hand, Tymon wins and is awarded substantial damages: Clarkson has to pay but loses no more face, but so does the BBC. BBC equally culpable, if not more so, for not instantly dismissing Clarkson.
Tymon initially came out a hero from all of this. He’s not looking that way so much now, danger is that he will look like more a bit of a money grabber. Again, not a good reflection on the BBC.

Before I go and curl up with a good book, I have just clicked on Bbc website – ostensibly to see the cricket score – but what caught my eye, on the home page? On the right, you can see Storming across Europe – One Syrian family’s story. Out of idle curiosity, I clicked on that and am then taken to Radio 4 website where I can…wait for it….download 10 episodes of a diary of this family’s “journey to Europe”. I went no further and am nonplussed as to what to make of it all!! What are these journalists trying to do to us? Words fail me. They don’t even have a decent play on now on Friday evenings on Radio 4. It’s a repeat of St Leonard of the Black Theatre! Do I need this? I don’t think so.

Not BBC bias but a possible example of the complete disaster that at times the BBC presently appears to be:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p037whm2
Jeff Lynne’s ELO playing Mr Blue Sky live in the BBC Studio. Admittedly, having some of the audience clap all the way through the performance did not help but to my ears the levels on some instruments & voices were way off and the whole sound balance seemed off kilter, with way to much bias to bass. I was listening through my PC with a sound system that appears pretty good on most stuff that I listen to but it could be my set up was wrong or losing something. Have a listen yourself and see what you think.
About twenty years ago, it appeared to me that the BBC’s technical mastery was starting to slip badly on Outdoor Broadcasts. Occasional glitches & difficult situations are, I would have thought, inevitable, especially with Outdoor Broadcasts or at venues that are acoustically difficult. They started to become not just poor but disaster prone, most often at the prime annual Glastonbury binge but also regularly on things like the Sunday morning ‘Sunday Worship’ on R4. But this was an in-house set-up, everything should have been perfectly set up and controlled by BBC engineers.
Not a good advertisement for a sustained, let alone an increased, Licence Fee.
