Is there any subject on earth that somehow, someway the BBC cannot connect to Brexit? However remotely or not at all connected BBC presenters always manage to slip in a quick mention of the contagion that is ‘Brexit’. Does help though if they compare notes or they might just end up as embarrassed as Jezza…though the BBC are covering for him today….apparently the lies he told in order to steal the train service are not a story at all…it’s just the silly summer season and the right-wing Press have nothing else important to report.
Today we heard that the SNP had run up an ever increasing deficit…..the BBC told us that this was a useful plan…borrowing money to cope with the recession we all know is coming due to Brexit. The SNP politician actually thanked the BBC for backing their narrative.
Trouble is the BBC told us only last week that the UK budget surplus of £1 billion, a ‘dramatic’ fall from £1.2 billion, meant the UK chancellor, Hammond, wouldn’t now have the money and flexibility to cope with the recession we all know is coming due to Brexit. Incredible how the BBC spun a good news story of a surplus into one of doom and gloom.
So the Scots run a deficit and it means they can cope with the recession we all know is coming due to Brexit but an economy that ran a surplus won’t cope with the recession we all know is coming due to Brexit.
You couldn’t make it up…..but you don’t need to, the BBC will do that for you.
Odd how most people and organisations think we will avoid recession and yet the BBC continues to slip in suggestions that we are definitely heading for recession.
You can rely on the BBC to talk down the UK economy just as it slandered the British Olympic team by saying that ‘We are buying medals’. Not a subject for discussion but an absolute statement last week from Mark Chapman. The foreign press were whinging loudly that Britain had done so well…and the BBC couldn’t resist joining in attacking the success and casting doubt on it and negating the huge efforts that the athletes put in over the last 4 years to get to the Olympics.
The liberal belief system is based on hate alone. It’s not even right to call it left-wing, left-wing basically just means social responsibility to all and public enterprise of key assets. There’s legitimacy to those ideas even though they don’t always work out. The 21st century version of liberalism is entirely selfish in its ambitions, cares nothing about the common person and is entirely geared towards the authoritative agendas, while disguising itself as charitable and empathetic to try and make simplistic malleable people feel guilty about challenging its obvious corruption.
The liberals are in the conservative and labour parties and in the media. Unless they deselect them then i can only see ukip as a choice. The Tories must be infested to allow the BBC to carry on as it is.
The BBC don’t even attempt to hide their bias when it comes to certain news stories, especially when it comes to economics. They follow positive news with a “but” or “however”, implying that what they say next negates – in some way – the good news.
Here’s an example:
Shoppers’ credit card use unaffected by Brexit, say banks
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37173229
There were 168 million purchases on credit cards in July – the first full month since the Brexit vote.
This was higher than in June and the average of the previous six months.
*However*, there was a drop in the number of mortgages approved for house purchases.
Not strictly a “good news” story, but it’s a story that goes completely against the expectations of Remain campaigners and all who stood on their side of the divide. Were the BBC on their side of the divide? You bet! Otherwise, why the “however…“?
If you’ve read the article, you might have already noticed that the 2 stories (credit card usage and mortgage approvals) are, in lots of ways, unconnected. Mainly because the British Bankers’ Association (BBA) stated; “This could suggest that those planning to buy a home may have taken a wait-and-see approach with home loan applications during the referendum campaign.”
The referendum campaign ran for many months up until June 22nd, so what has that got to do with increased credit card usage in July? A clear sign that consumer confidence has not waned.
Economics is a complicated subject. The BBC are either lacking experts in this field, or are intent on hoodwinking the country when it comes to economics for political reasons.
Sinister! Very sinister!
