A new open thread for the weekend…..the weather’s looking stormy and the BBC is on full-on Mission Implausible mode…get Corbyn elected (holding their noses)….so stay in the warm and hit the keyboard with the bias…only a few days left to the election and the BBC is going all out flooding the airwaves with bias such as Boris ‘says no tax rises’ and then showing a clip of him actually saying ‘no planned tax rises’…that’s a big big difference…I am guessing the BBC will go for broke and become more blatant thinking that Corbyn will square it with Ofcom, packed to the gills as it is with people who look like they may well be on-side for the BBC anyway…and if the Tories win? Well never mind, they’re too afraid to tackle the BBC….it’s a win win for the Beeboids….they have nothing to lose and everything to win…list the bias here….

A continuance of S.N.A.F.U. – as expected.

Any sign of HYS returning to the BBC yet? When it does, you know the BBC feels it has won the propaganda war and it is safe to let the public speak.

I would suggest you have a word with ‘Maxi’ about that.

taffman,
As a rule I never engage with people like the one you mention. I am even kicking myself for alluding to them now!

I’m surprised that the BBC are not pushing for more armed police.
If there had been one or two armed officers in or near Borough Market, the Islamic Terrorists would not have had a full 8 minutes to stab and slaughter.
8 minutes is too slow a response time. The Islamic Terrorists know they have this margin of time.
The problem is, there are 1,000s of potential target locations. Schools and hospitals could be next.

“If there had been one or two armed officers in or near Borough Market, the Islamic Terrorists would not have had a full 8 minutes to stab and slaughter.”
I think the problem is that if there had been one or two armed officers in or near Borough Market, the terrorists would have gone somewhere else. Borough Market is not Wembley Stadium, it is relatively small and there will always be places where moderate numbers of people assemble unprotected. We can’t police every pub and theatre in the country.
IMO, it’s Muslims that need watching, not everyone else. We’ll be hearing this week how X, Y and Z were known to the police. That’s your problem, right there. I think internment will be introduced. Maybe not yet, but as the body count increases, it will.

Well, last nights BBC news had me screaming at the television
Somehow they managed to give a direct comparison of the current islamic extremists with the English black shirts in the 1930. They even slotted this video in just to inform the ill informed
What this has to do with islamic extremism I haven’t a clue.
Firstly, I don’t recal English fascist’ ever murdering anyone.?
Did they blow up or stab anyone?
The movement was halted in its tracks and the leaders incarcerated.
Were the bbc implying that all muslims be thrown into jail. I doubt it.
I think it was just a typical BBC ploy to balance the awful events of the last few weeks with the more serious threat of the right wing.
Yes, European fascism did go out of control with terrible consequences but it has absolutely nothing to do with the current rise in islamic extremism,I fail to see any link.

I think we’re all missing the point and getting our priorities all wrong as stated by Justin Webb ‘Today’ – “Should Donald Trump be banned from entering the country following his criticism of the London Mayor?”
Thank goodness for the likes of Justin Webb so we, at least, know what to think.

Justin was certainly on top form today teasing out the best ‘takes’ from this whole sorry farce.
Victims mentioned more in passing. Perpetrators hardly at all.

Caught a bit of Doctor Who – 10 years in a labour camp for contravening the Memory Crimes Act. (Possessing a box of comics).
“No one’s saying anything. It’s like they’ve been brainwashed ……….”
And the Doctor lectures, “You have free will and look what you’ve done. You had history with examples of fascism and fundamentalism …….”
Substitute the aliens for Muslims, rewrite history – there’s your allegory.
