The BBC are past masters at semantics, but its Editorial Guidelines must be full to busting with all the epic stretches of the English language beyond credulity that it tries to insert into common usage and parlance.
Thing is, it can by sheer coverage and repetition. ‘Tell it often enough’ multiplied by a thousand bizarre BBC empires.
In this way, a hat with an acronym coined by the current leader of the USA to inspire patriotic ambition somehow gets accepted only once converted into a symbol of something snowflakey simply because some snowflakes want it to be and the BBC can point at them because it suits the BBC agenda to do so. It’s a hat. BBC staff wearing them to support other Presidents whilst on duty was and remains a-ok. Apparently.
Equally here, about Brexit, anyone not convinced rampant diversity via porous borders is working out well, or thinks JC-52’s nutty army is a crock starts off at Alt-right and is soon propelled to blackshirt because racist despite being a) daft and b) convincing nobody.

This Week, BBC One, 10 January 2019
Complaint
We have received complaints from people who felt Owen Jones was treated in a disrespectful manner while appearing as a guest on the programme.
Response
Following the verbal abuse which he and others had sustained from protesters outside Parliament, Owen Jones, journalist, left wing commentator and activist, used his “Take of the Week” section to give his personal take on the current state of political discourse, the rise of the far right and, as he deemed, the reasons for this.
This is a prominent section of the programme in which the author gives their views unchallenged. During his video and the studio discussion which followed, Mr Jones made allegations about the Conservative Party and right wing media which some would consider contentious. As our audience would expect, Andrew scrutinised what Mr Jones said. Michael Portillo, who disagreed with Mr Jones, also gave his opinion. Mr Jones was given ample time to express his views and respond to points made to him.
When Mr Jones made allegations about The Spectator magazine and Andrew’s role with the publication. Andrew legitimately pointed out that this was nothing to do with the BBC and it wasn’t right for Mr Jones to use the programme to make personal accusations against him.

VISION & ETHOS (MUSLIM AID)
https://www.muslimaid.org/about-us/
The Holy Qur’an describes a ‘godly’ person as someone: “giving a rightful share of their wealth to the beggar and the deprived” (51:19); while Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) reminds us that: “Every good act is charity; and the person who guides others to a good act is as the one who did it; and, assuredly, God loves the act of aiding the distressed!” (al Bayhaqi). The Prophet also says that “Love for humanity what you love for yourself!” (al-Bukhari).
“Whosoever saves a life, it is as if they have saved the lives of all humankind” (Qur’an 5:32)”.
The ethos of Muslim Aid is rooted in these teachings; a belief that providing relief and aid to others is central to one’s humanity. This can, and is, performed by those of all faiths and none.
This sounds nice and fluffy on Muslim Aid Website Q5:32 …
“…Whosoever kills a human being, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind..” Q5:32
But don’t stop there! Because if you carry on to read Q5:33…
“The only reward of those who make war upon Allah (does that include ignoring him?) and His messenger (does that include drawing him?) and strive after corruption in the land will be that they will be killed or crucified, or have their hands and feet on alternate sides cut off, or will be expelled out of the land (other options include just laughing at them or debating them). Such will be their degradation in the world, and in the Hereafter theirs will be an awful doom; ” Q5:33
The reason this is so worrying is that it gets thrown around quite a lot to defend the Koran … but we/they forget to turn the page and have that other awkward discussion after Q5:32 …

Assuming we leave the EU as per Brexit in March, may we also assume that the BBC will continue it’s anti-Brexit bias?
The BBC will now find fault with ‘Life-After-Brexit’ and seek another Referendum to return the BBC and their friends to the welcoming EU.
The EU will make an offer that we can return whenever we want for a one off administration fee of only £123 billion. This will be acceptable to the BBC and their friends.
May will still be PM and will urge the acceptance of this offer ‘In the Best Interests of the British People’. After all, ‘Brexit Means Brexit’.
Rinse and repeat…

D,
whatever the outcome of the ‘exiting of the EU’ issue, things have changed forever in the minds of much of the UK electorate.
What was once suspected – that the media can and often does take sides – is now proven fact.
That the national broadcaster is more guilty of this than many of its independent brethren is also beyond doubt.
That our government, in both houses, treat our views with disdain and only carry out our wishes under any electoral process if they are in keeping with their own. The veneer of accountability of our elected representatives has all but been destroyed by their self interest, narrow political point scoring and a slavish yearning to continue on the road to becoming a EU federal Department.
Whatever else happens, these things will still be true.

8pm Tonight BBC2’s #BackInTimeForSchool did the 60’s
My mother was watching it.
Guess, was it real history or was it BBC NPC rewriting of history ?
There were falsehoods
– “in the 60’s there were no dinner ladies, instead lead pupils would ladle out the food”
– Misrepresntation “In the 60’s boys had carpetary and girls had domestic science”
FFS I went to school in the 1980’s and it was like that.
but the strange thing was the BBC’s commitment to race baiting
so we had a largely white class, with a token black boy and a couple of extra BAME.
But in the last 10 mins they had a segment on Enoch Powell and on how terrible the racial hatred was.
The pensioners around here disagreed. I was typical in this area to have one or two non whites in each large factory and in general everyone was respected as much as anyone else was.. one of that “No blacks , no Irish, no dogs, ” signs etc.
\\ Showing a tiny snippet of Powell’s speech , being told people were racist then asking for views…that basically have to be PC & liberal. That’s not a debate or open discussion. It’s agenda driven . //
Also the prog had strange segments
I don’t think that British schools had nuclear drills and driving lessons for 15/16 year olds.
We saw pupils taught with overhead projectors
surely they didn’t come in in the 60s, it seemed new in the 80’s
In another segment the girls had to cook for a male teacher playing the role of a husband.

Kicking ass & taking names
The BBC Breakfast TV show loves to air a cause for concern – so long as it stays ‘on side’ and fits certain narrow BBC agenda guidelines.
This morning we tackle the abuse of referees in amateur football.
Our BBC air this disturbing video
You Tube label it as “Amateur referee attacked by players in London Turkish Cup” but the BBC is institutionally loath to give any detail whatsoever as to the identity of those involved.
Instead the BBC welcomes as a guest a female referee who has a sad tale of abuse she claims she suffered at an under 17 boys match.
The incident sounded relatively mild but it made her “cry”. One wonders if she is really cut out to officiate male team sports.
So the video evidence of foreign migrant violence in London is used to illustrate a different but favoured BBC narrative of male violence targeted at women.
Toxic masculinity.

Put a cork in it BBC
The lanky BBC reporter Ben Thompson is touring Britain and looking for Brexit non-stories with which to alarm us.
He actually mentions the phrase ‘ifs, buts and maybes’
In fact the item is an excuse for a Remain-sounding Scottish business advocate to bemoan the national democratic choice of exit. This bloke wants x thousand cheap workers by 20xx – so in reality he is not talking about the EU per se but about keeping the UK borders open to the world’s poorer nations.
At a Scotch whisky distillery our Ben chats with a producer who reassures the BBC man that all his ingredients are locally sourced – although his corks do come from Portugal – aaagggghhhh – what if Brexit leads to corkless malt liqour!!!! Quick reverse Brexit!

The unexpected secrets of laughter
US President Donald Trump was greeted with laughter in September when he told the UN that he had accomplished more than “almost any administration” in his country’s history. Mr Trump admitted that he “didn’t expect” that reaction – but that it was “just fine”.
It was one example of the many reasons people laugh – and most of them are not because somebody is being particularly funny. Laughter is primarily a form of bonding. We are 30 times more likely to laugh if we are with others than if we are alone.
Prof Sophie Scott
University College London

Well, there’s always a first – and the first for me is that I agree with Soros (though probably for a different reason)! Xi Jinping is the most repressive leader since Mao, and has made himself President for Life. For example, after some relaxation in the law in the previous regime, Christians are now being severely repressed and have much to fear.

Xi Jinping is being impartial, even handed, neutral, just like the BBC.
The PRC is also persecuting Muslims.

Breaking news from Francis O’Grady who wants to keep bringing in cheap immigrant labour to replace her British union workers.
In future negotiations, we will remove any option to strike or withdraw labour off the table and we will then accept whatever deal the bosses put to us.
She then crashed out and went over a cliff edge. (She left the room)
The remoaners and the bbbc must be running out of hyperbole with all this crashing about, catastrophe and crisis they keep repeating.

‘Francis O’Grady who wants to keep bringing in cheap immigrant labour to replace her British union workers’
TUC boss advocating for cheap labour – the world really is turned upside down.
Yesterday the BBC treated us to a Norman Smith interview with Len McCluskey who, besides telling us Corbyn looked “statemanlike” and “a PM in waiting” insisted (straight-faced) that he, Red Len, “spoke for 1,000s of businesses”
Animal Farm [1945] “The creatures outside looked from pig to man, and from man to pig, and from pig to man again; but already it was impossible to say which was which.”

Grandiose sense of self-importance
• Fantasies of success and power
• Believe self to be special and unique
• Requires excessive admiration
Is narcissism on the rise?
Not sure but I intend to phone in to James O’brain as soon as poss and ask him.

Warning: some still think the bbc may use terminology to suit the bbc narrative rather than impartiality.

“Philip Hammond urges business leaders to accept Brexit result”
Another traitor who wants to live at #10.
“Speaking in Davos, chancellor says changes such as end to free movement are on the way”
Hammond still speaking with forked tongue.
“Not leaving would be a betrayal, but leaving without a deal would also be a betrayal.”
QED.
Followed by approvals for Richard Harrington, Greg Clark, Amber Rudd, Mark Carney.
Still a traitor, head on pole, ASAP.

That media expert claim yeh it’s all about the TV trying to compete with Netflix.
(His own last tweet was a shouty sweary one at a Trump supporter)
They did a vox pop ..and people once again said they don’t watch the news.
Half the callers said “There’s an off switch”
