What has been one of the major news stories today, one that the BBC has been giving priority to throughout the day?
BBC cameraman run down by Corbyn perhaps? Well nothing that exciting. Labour’s deputy leader, Tom Watson, has been in the Guardian revealing the bombshell news that Labour might get beaten in the coming election..and beaten by a landslide. What’s new, what’s news, about that? Nothing. However the BBC has been giving his words almost top billing all day so far telling us that ‘Tom Watson has warned of a Tory landslide’.
The BBC’s choice of word is interesting…’warned’…why did the BBC choose that loaded word instead of saying Tom Watson claims or states or predicts that the Tories will win by a landslide? ‘Warned’ is alarmist, it says a Tory ‘landslide’ is a bad thing…something that needs to be warned of.
And why is the BBC giving such a nothing story such a high profile? Watson is clearly giving out a message here and it’s not at all subtle or missable…he’s ‘warning’ of a Tory landslide in the hope that disenchanted Labour voters will put aside their dislike of Corbyn and rally to the Party’s aid if not to win then at least to reduce the Tory majority.
The BBC must know that…so you have to ask why they have been pumping out what is obvious Labour propaganda all day?
And if you think that’s a very cynical and suspicious view of the BBC then listen to what Nick Robinson said this morning [yes he’s still around if not on the election team]…
‘Now you might think predicting Labour can’t win is a bit of Right-wing propaganda but of course this morning we’ve been reminded that some in the Labour Party, not least the deputy leader, Tom Watson, want to get that message out because they think warnings of a Tory landslide are the best way to bring their voters back home.’ [to Labour]
Nick Robinson dobs in his own side….caught red-handed filling the airwaves with Labour spin. Let’s get that message out luvvies…champers on ice for the big win!!!!
I doubt it matters what they say now,the Tory party should still win easily.
I see the Lib Dems are trying to buy the votes of the drug addicts now, how low can they sink?
Lower than a snake’s belly?
In a wagon rut, RM.
Lower than Diane Flabbott’s score in her maths test?
Nothing is that low.
You’d need to smoke about an ounce of skunk before Lib Dem policies even began to look sensible.

I could smoke a dozen putrefying real live dead skunks simultaneously and the stench of Liberal Democrat would overpower it.
Greens a bettering little Tim, They want to legalise prostitution.
The msm is deranged. And the meltdown is funny.
Global Tripe ran top of the hour with the cyber story.
Well, actually they tried to shoehorn the NHS and Corbyn together, with the ‘news’ aspect being Jeremy simply repeating what everyone already knew, and it was beastly (ditto).
I still await a gallant reporter asking market rate IT directors in the NHS what their job actually involves.
“I still await a gallant reporter asking market rate IT directors in the NHS what their job actually involves.”
And also what we are paying them.
I think it’s utterly disgraceful that a political party wants to legalise a dreadful cheap nasty drug, just to get votes.
The Libdems have long been the wasteland for thickos and obdurate anti-everythings where they can gather and mumble stuff, and this just takes the biscuit.
Yeah, become a ‘popular’ vote amongst those school-leavers with their heads in the clouds, and weird ideas, but just remember that real people don’t really go there, so shaddup Farron and co. You and your lot really are becoming boring losers at every turn.
I understand that cannabis is 20x more carcinogenic than tobacco and that 10% of the time it causes psychotic episodes. So even if these figures are exaggerated and divide by 2, then it already adds greatly to the NHS bill, and do we want young people to think cannabis is a drug without consequences? It isn’t to say that for those terminally I would support its use.
And it seems that the Lib Dems want to “Spend £4.3bn on Taking in an Extra 50,000 Syrian Migrants”. (Breitbart)
Thats damn decent of them John, oh wait a minute, it will be someone else’s 4 billion right.
“What has been one of the major news stories today…”
“…giving his words almost top billing all day…”
Yeah… right, oh… kay…
“The BBC’s choice of word is interesting…’warned’…why did the BBC choose that loaded word…”
Well perhaps, because (in your very own words); “…he’s ‘warning’ of a Tory landslide…”
BOOM!
Yet again, your assumption that the BBC’s reporting that Tom Watson is contemplating “a Tory Landslide / Massive Defeat” is somehow trying to “help the Labour Party” is laughable.
You’ll know of course that neither Watson nor The Guardian are fans of Jeremy Corbyn. You’ll also have noticed that Corbyn was quick to try and shut the story down.
Or perhaps you won’t.
Ah, my mate Maxi.
Maxi the Sunni, or is it Maxi the Shia today?
Test which way the wind is blowing, yes towards Mecca.
So a bit of Sunni, probably.
In any case it is highly serendipitous for a loveable Muzzie to arrive on BBBC. I can ask for advice.
Your mates the Assassins Maxi, the Muzzies who developed a formidable record of eliminating anybody who did not subscribe to their version of the trooooth.
The Assassins, they drugged the acolytes, with hashish, and sent them amurdering with the usual virgin promises.
Apparently the hashish was the only successful method of Islamobollox inculcation.
I understand that the two sub-humans who killed Lee Rigby were also high on hashish and the virgin flying carpet nonsense. More Islamobollox inculcation.
Between the Assassins and the Woolwich murder there is the little matter of about three hundred million Hindus murdered by the members of the euphemistically named “Religion of peace”.
What I neeed to know Maxi, all these hashish murders, how bad will the LibDems become?
Clegg and Co advocating drug use, they already have a long time record in believing total eyewash that is on a par with the Islamobollox.
Will Clegg and Co take up mass murder under the influence? If so, I believe you need to have a quiet word with them, surely mass murder is your job.
Thanks in advance for your help.
TruthSeeker,
Change your dealer.
Maxi
You nights again,!!!?
Don’t they let you get a ‘rota’ day off?
Keep it up because you are the best advert for abolishing the Telly Tax.
“They think it’s all over. It is now”.
The BBC ‘investigates’, impartially of course (DNA, apparently) with… Eddie Izzard.
Meanwhile, the BBC has sent John Sweeney to ‘investigate’ in the South West.:

As Craig points out, the BBC has a knack of not finding what doesn’t suit.
Some may feel that is not reporting, but blatant censorship in support of propaganda.
