The decision by Theresa May not to attend BBC debate this Wednesday evening was very shrewd. It was one of THE most biased audiences I have ever encountered. Virulently leftist and wildly applauding fringe parties like The Green’s. Anyway, detail the bias here please!

And so they should.
If I get there in time Classic FM or radio Sky ‘news’ propaganda is kicked off well before the top of the hour and I often forget to with the music back on afterwards. So all those ads do not get heard.
The BBC, being uniquely funded, is less of a problem; I don’t watch or listen to it, other than via here or online to see what those scamps are rigging next.

Political bias and the TV debate
The Times letters today 3 of 7 strongly slag BBC for rigging audience
One gives an example of where when he claimed to be a union activists they started to call him to be in the audience, after ignoring him when he applied as a Conservative.
Another eg
“Sir, there was a wholly unacceptable anti-Tory bias in the audience which the BBC invited to the televised general election debate on Wednesday. The left-wing audience clapped and cheered every time Jeremy Corbyn spoke but booed and jeered at all the other party leaders. These constant interruptions completely slanted the debate. The BBC’s pledge to be independent, impartial and honest was disregarded.

Weird pro-Brexit, conspiracy style ad in the Times
about Carl Ophuels and Walter Hallstein from Nazi times
Half page ad must have cost a lot of money
8 likes
I read that too. A private Ad i think, but better for it. The Times is largely ‘remain’ and yet invites many journalist who are opposed to take up a column, Melanie Philips for example is a regular ‘leave’ campaigner whilst predictably Matthew Parish and Arron Arronovich both Marxist wet wipes are ‘remainers’. the Times is big enough to voice differences of opinion (unlike the BBC) which stifles debate.
In today’s (Friday) TIMES LETTERS page it has several letters about the BBC ‘Question Time’ Bias; and one caught my eye that should be sent to OFCOM). In it , the writer is clearly dismayed that ‘as a Conservative’ he wrote to BBC asking why the audience cannot be more balanced. He never got a reply, however suspecting something was up, he pretended to be from another part of the country and to be a left wing loud mouth with union connections and was immediately invited not only on ‘QT’ but other BBC programs being planned. If proof was needed of innate BBC bias then this should be enough.
Its one of the reason I gave up any hopes of an independent debate in the BBC empire. I just turn it all OFF.

Why does everyone @ BBC refer to the Manchester bombing as a “tragedy” . Yes, as far as the victims and their families are concered, it was a tragedy but so far as I am concerned it was an Outrage a Terrorist Atrocity and Mass Murder.
Not one politician, from any party, has mentioned the massive Pachyderm in the room : Islamic terrorism and how they intend to deal with it. I cannot credit that such a thing could occur in the middle of an Election campaign and it not be the number one item for debate. Words fail me (almost)

I believe there is an agreed informal arrangement between HMG ( of whatever colour) and the main stream media albeeb ,al itv ,al sky and al c4 to not use Islam or Muslim in a negative sense – even when one has killed 23 people ( inc the poor chap who was a 7/7 victim who committed suicide after Manchester) .
We are living in an openly distorted country just as Orwell described. Instead of communism it’s multiculturalism. Both fail.
What do we do about it.? Deny the tv licence tax. Write about it here. Recognise this is the world we are in and hope that one day the light of truth might shine again.
PS – I still cannot believe that I am writing on any blog but like my friends here – I feel very strongly about being fed lies and omissions to further someone else’s multicultural belief.

Can’t mention it BECAUSE it would put one in the classification of, ISLAMOHOBE, RACIST, XENOPHOBE, FASCIST, HATER – simples!
We lecture our children on adopting a, ‘mature’, ‘adult’ view. Confronting reality, making decisions, acceptance and moving on with a positive attitude. That, for all too many adults here and abroad is simply not the case. I sometimes say to our pre-teens children, ‘You want the moon on a stick’ and for the most part it’s fine. Trouble is too many adults want and fully expect Brexit and Trump to disappear, like it was some bad dream and if they don’t then there are sulks, tears and tantrums. Very sad. I have great hopes for our kids, not so for some adults.

It is unbelievable as you say. Nobody wants to talk about this atrocity. Even some of my family are like this. It is as if a madness is infecting many of us.
There must be anger somewhere. Is it hidden or are people afraid to show it? Probably hidden and kept so out of fear of peer disapproval and the threat of state action against us. This is a very real threat now.
A state built on lies cannot hold. Inevitably it becomes a tyranny and then?

Saw some of Newsnight where they switched to their reporter in the QT Spin Room. At that moment the grotesque fat cow “audience member” who said she was teacher and went on to give May a hard time, could be seen squeezing her bulk past the reporter. Since when do audience members have access to the BBC’s Press Room. It’s obvious she’s another Labour/Momentum Activist that the Beeb planted in the audience to have a go at May.

According to Corbyn, Lucy, the attack wasn’t unprovoked, it was a direct result of our foreign policy involvement in the Middle East.
In times past such an action would have been looked upon as an act of war. Our government isn’t protecting us becuase they are more concerned with the legalities and rights, of the tens of thousands who walk amongst us and wish us dead.

To be fair, the “Peace Agreement” was valuable to the left in mopping up the IRA bloodspills like rainbow coloured sawdust.
Of course the Unionists did unspeakbly evil things too-but Corbyn was only ever on the side of the IRA, he`d never have met the likes of Paisley. Ditto with Baader Meinhof and the PLO/Black September,,,,NONE of this asymmetric terror via the Left and Islam has ever been taught to our kids. So they know nothing of what Corbyn supports.
Our fault too-let`s ensure that the 70s get taught-how can you understand the Caliphate and their view of our buckling under the IRA-unless it`s taught?

I think we need capital punishment for rape/grooming where there is a racial element.
It is quite simple. These Muslim paedophile rape gangs are one of the worst offences, combining hatred of kafirs, racism, rape of children, and their total disinterest in integrating into a civilised society.
This at least might provide a deterrent. Why should we have to pay for these animals to be fed at our expense in prison only to be released and do it again?

What the BBC call ‘balance’ is rather like a child playing with the treble and volume controls. They do actively ‘balance ‘ in favor of BBC ‘balance’ act in that they are prepared to ‘bus-in approved voices that they favor.

I’ve found a surprise about Last night’s BBC luvvie Robert Llewellyn’s Green Power show
Prog was a bit of a squib, poor substation meaning the only solution was to cut out selling to the grid and sell direct to a local biz so they sited a small community array at a local tourist attraction Cotswold Farm Park.
..Well guess who owns it …It’s actually titled Adam Henson’s
Cotswold Farm Park.
Yes the only reason they can do any green energy scheme at all is cos BBC luvvie is playing along.
(The thing is 65 mins into the show they found their local substation was not big enough for all the houses to start feeding home generated power into the grid.so they only thing they could do was look for a local biz to site their 20KW solar project and buy the power
BTW he’s already got his own 50KW solar so probably doesn’t use all their electricity anyway)
Also the progs maths was iffy
– Show commences saying the village is “62 homes using 341MWh/yr”
(I make that 5.5MWh each)
– And ends saying “20KW barn solar offsets 5-6 homes”
Plugging in the yearly maths I get 365x24x20x0.097CapFactor =17MWh/yr
Actually UK av home consumes 4.152MWh So their proj worth 4 homes
but of this village @5.5 that’s only 3 homes!

no Darwinian evolution would be a scientific theory with ever building proof which doesnt need underhand adjustments , lies , ignoring of inconvenient data and coercion, and like all real science is up there to be shot at as it doesnt actually care whether its proved wrong.
Where as just the rebranding alone of global warming to climate change tells you a lot about the great scam and the FACT that every prediction the alarmists have made based on their great consensus has been wrong ,shows that in truth they dont have a clue to

Not quite the BBC, but from the print arm, we have a story which encapsulates the infantile Left, which goes into meltdown when it is caught doing something naughty and starts crying that it is the real victim.
Some here may have heard of the US comedienne Kathy Griffin, who showed an ISIS-style photograph of her holding the severed head of, naturally, Donald Trump. The MSM tried to ignore this, but the public backlash got too much, and eventually CNN was forced to terminate her for this revolting act.
Now, the Guardian tells us in a headline: “Tearful Kathy Griffin says ‘bully’ Donald Trump is trying to ruin her career”
Says all you’ll ever need to know.

…so, I assume it was Corbyn what won the debates… and will win the election… or else, if they get it wrong again, I want my Licence Fee back
I didn’t watch the BBC Question Time special with the two main party leaders – no matter, BBC Breakfast helps me out with their headline summary:
“Corbyn faced robust questioning on Trident”
whereas
“May faced uncomfortable questioning on the NHS”
Robust versus Uncomfortable…. once again perfectly balanced reporting from the BBC – perfectly balanced somewhere well to the left of the British public!
BBC Newswatch with our Samira tackles the issue of the noisy left mob audience for the previous seven-way BBC debate. Once again I avoided subjecting myself to this debacle but the clips I see reminded me of the baying toothless knitting crowd gathered beside a French revolutionary guillotine.
Oddly our Samira tells us “no one was available from the BBC” to answer the viewer complaints aired on their own BBC news feedback show. However, an anonymous written BBC statement makes an interesting point – apparently leftists clap and shout loudest and the BBC obviously defends the right of the individual to do that. Class.

Toobi, some politicians (of certain heritage) have a strange idea of who they represent. Last week Breitbart ran an interesting story:
“A Conservative Party Member of the European Parliament has said Pakistan faces a lack of representation in the Brussels and Strasbourg legislatures following Brexit. Sajjad Karim, a British-born MEP of Pakistani heritage, made the comments when speaking with the Karachi-based television channel GeoTV on Tuesday.
“Once Brexit has gone through, Pakistan runs the risk of not being represented properly in the European Union. The repercussions of Brexit must be taken seriously by all!” he wrote on Facebook.
Mr. Karim was unclear about via who, and how, Pakistan is represented in the Brussels Parliament, though the implication is that it is through him.
Responses to the Facebook post include comments such as: “Allah bless u”, and “MashaAllah stay blessed ji”.
In 2015, Karim was presented with Pakistan’s highest national honour for services that have helped the nation, the Sitara-i-Qaid-i-Azam presented in Islamabad by the President of Pakistan.
Mr. Karim was previously a Liberal Democrat MEP, before jumping across to the Conservative Party.”
I didn’t see this one on the BBC, but that might be because I don’t often watch BBC “news”.

Last night’s audience was marginally better than that at the 7 way debate earlier in the week. The problem is that the BBBC select the questioners and know what their question is so they can steer the debate.
My main concern was that for long periods last night, TM was having to debate Dimbleby, not the audience. On reflection, she would have probably done better debating Corbyn rather than Dimbleby and a load of Social Justice Warriors.
On another matter, can someone please clarify what actual pay rises our Nurses have had since 2010 ? Apart from the 1% annual rise, do they get other incremental annual amounts automatically.

Thomas, this probably constitutes too much detail. but:
The NHS pay scale for all staff runs from band 1 to band 9. Qualified nurses should start on band 5 and move up through the bands as their level of responsibility increases. They’d have to become nurse consultants to get near the top end – or go into management. Each band has a number of incremental steps which reflect experience. Unless there is a problem with their performance they can expect to work up the 8 steps of band 5 in as many years. If they’ve just qualified they’re on £22,128 and if they’ve been there for a decade they’re on £28,747. When they get promoted they move to the new band at an incremental point just above their current salary (usually). If it’s a big enough promotion they can start at the top incremental point of the new band or even skip a band.
Someone who’s been in the same job for a long time wll only get the annual pay award; someone who’s just started will get the annual pay award plus the annual increment.
The grid with the bands, increments and salaries is here:

Did anyone actually watch Victoria Derbyshire yesterday (2 June), about 11.00am’ish? It was astounding. They had an “expert” (no idea who he was) who had the gall to redefine the meaning of “impartial”. You COULDN’T make his definiton up. I believe it went something like this:
He started by saying that there is nothing objective (they ALWAYS say that), then quickly moved onto to say that in order to be impartial, the BBC must have “experts, etc”, who come to a world view / opinion, of what angle or spin to give to an article, etc. THIS spin / opinion, is then impartial.
Outrageous! I could only take about a minute of this crap, and turned channels. Correct me if I’m wrong, but he stated that in order to be impartial, the BBC has to be, partial! Lying b*stards.
That’s sick! I mean, truly, disgustingly, sick! As in, a shrink should actually see this lunatic.

The BBC are like their soulmate Corbyn. He cannot criticise antisemitism without mentioning Islamophobia, or the IRA without saying all sides were bombers. The BBC cannot report on criticism of comedian Kathy Griffin over her Trump severed head stunt without reporting that Trump once met old rocker Ted Nugent, guilty of saying “President Obama should be “tried for treason and hung”.

BBC leftist bias – once unmentionable in polite society – the tendency we all knew was there but it dare not speak its name. Well it is gradually becoming an open secret
Recently a few weeks prior to the election campaign within 24 hours both a senior faceless BBC news panjandrum and then Nick Robinson each declared that equal time and number of voices on the Brexit issue was no longer BBC policy – the corporation was infact going to focus on the problems and difficulties of Brexit
Recently a media insider reveals in print that her experience is that many within the BBC feel that because the press is by their judgement largely rightwing – it follows by their reasoning it is the BBC’s duty to balance this perceived bias with a leftwing counter balance
This morning a BBC statement observes that leftwingers are more noisy – but this is their right. My observation on this strange fatalistic attitude to broadcast balance is that it follows that the BBC feels no obligation to enable the quiet conservative section of society to be heard.
Perhaps the climate is now right for the leftist BBC to simply ‘come out’

I’m beginning to think that the entire regressive Left has been traumatised into a state of hyper-vigilance by Brexit and the election of President Trump.
This is the kind of state that primitive man got into on the savannah when they heard lions all around. The stress hormone cortisol kicks in, takes all the blood to the muscles and away from the brain, ready for flight or fight.
That’s OK for a short-term interaction — in fact, humanity wouldn’t be here without it, but the regressive Left has been running this program for months now.
Even the merest rustling of the bushes (a Trump tweet) sends them into instant brainless response mode, or some hissing in the grass (Russians, no doubt, recruiting Farage), and it’s wall-to-wall meltdown.
I can’t think of any other reason that the BBC and the rest of them have become so demented.

Fired comedian Kathy Griffin weeps: ‘Trump broke me’
US comedian Kathy Griffin has tearfully said she fears her career is over after CNN fired her for posing in a photo with a prop meant to resemble the severed head of President Donald Trump.

Hmmm. ‘Posing in a photo with a prop’… that’s a slippery choice of words, is it not? So what was the prop? What was her ‘pose’?
Oh. Okay. The BBC doesn’t think that’s anything to worry about. It’s just a ‘pose’, just ‘a prop’, after all. Besides which (so goes the regressive mindset) it was a well-deserved and vicious attack on Trump so what’s all the fuss about? That orange Nazi had it coming, right?
Hmmm.

2) if you want you can trade your emissions
3) Developing countries get a cop out. China is classed as a developing nation.
4) $100 billion a year to be handed over a year to so called climate changed countries.
5) Out of 195 countries 148 have ratified it.
6) The following countries haven’t ratified it yet:

Odd how hysterical the BBC/Sky news wept for so long over Trump not signing up to the Paris accord that they didn’t have time to report a couple of salient facts.
Firstly, individual states can, if they observe every last detail in the document. Left wing states like New York and California can be expected to do so.
Secondly, even if every country signed up to it and obeyed every last dictate the reduction in terms of temperature by the end of the century would be 0.04 of a degree.

Pounce, you are a star.
I wonder how many ‘snowflakes’ have done that much research? Not many, I bet. They’d be like the Mayor of Miami Beach, merely mindlessly repeating the received mantra.
Thank you for listing that information here. Hopefully, those on here and any visitors who have a mind to challenge the consensus will do so and find it helpful, a useful ‘weapon’ in the armoury for debate time.
Having watched the Tucker Carlson interview with the Mayor, I did some research into mean sea level rise. It was hard to get figures for what seemed to be the most important period, 2000-2015, but I eventually found some for 1997-2010. Some quick sums after reading the available information, provided my maths and metric conversions are correct, indicated a global sea-level rise for that period (’97-10) of two inches, ± one-quarter of an inch. Extrapolating, that means a sea level rise of approximately one foot through the 21st century, ± 2 1/2 inches.
Anyone know how much a shift of ten notches on the barometer account for, sea-level-wise? I suspect it may be similar, but that is a guess on my part.
Not unlike much of the so-called ‘climate science’, it seems.

If you go to the Mediterranean there are no tides to speak of. If the sea level rises or falls it is down to air pressure – handy as a weather forecasting tool.

claims that an increase of 1 hPa lowers sea level by 1 cm. One hecto pascal (hPa) is equivalent to one millibar, which is approximately a thousandth of ‘normal’ air pressure at sea level, one bar.
The average sea level during a year is 0 cmPGA and the average air pressure is 1013 hPa. Since the air pressure normally varies between 950 and 1050 hPa during a year, the expected variation in sea level due to air pressure is between +63 cm and -37 cm around mean sea level.
