But they do not know much. Or they have (maybe unfair – correction) this one has a rather small brain. https://www.bbc.co.uk/ – right hand side, near the top in section ‘More Top Stories’.
Yes, honestly.
The BBC have done a pretty good job of denigrating women over the last week or two.
The list of BBC ‘doesn’t do’s’ grows by the minute, or so it seems. A Government bond is not a share: it is a Gilt-edged stock, commonly known as ‘Gilts’.
… ‘The boss who put everyone on 70K By Stephanie Hegarty Population correspondent’. …
This headline fails to mention that the story concerns an American firm, and that the 70k is measured in $s.
That aside, a look at Stephanie Hegarty’s output lists this story and Coronavirus stories only in her last dozen or so.
The BBC’s appointment of ‘Population correspondent’ must be a step along the way towards a loosely defined Simpsonesque ‘World Affairs Correspondent’.
For an organisation whose future is anything but certain, at both ends of the market rate limpet scale, from Young Reporters to old pharts having views their own, they do seem to be creating an ever-growing empire.
ITV local news
– Start with Cowick flooding “now with Climate change”
– LGBT news , “It’s Bridlington Pride this weekend, last year someone pulled their rainbow flag down, here’s the Police Chief saying he’ll act tough if it’s pulled down again”
– Hull lady boxer
– Scunthorpe 12year old girl doing a Men’s Mental Health charity gig, in a local working men’s club.
– Dropped in national item .. about leap year birthday event in Bude.
BBC Hull local news waited 16 mins before its LGBT item trailing a protest that gay rugby players will be making against a Hull teams new signing.. an Australian fundamentalist Christian who asserts that God condemns homosexuality
– then Diana Johnson , the Hull Labour MP has made a statement about smelly toilets in Hull station.

“It’s Bridlington Pride this weekend, last year someone pulled their rainbow flag down, here’s the Police Chief saying he’ll act tough if it’s pulled down again”
The focus of Weekend Three will be group discussion and decision making. ???? There will be no expert talks and therefore no live stream this time. Don't worry! You can tune into past videos to catch-up on #ClimateAssemblyUK ????More info: https://t.co/hXmY6yKLhLpic.twitter.com/bkerghPFfA

Guest Who
Now I’ve always understood that as we – in the US/UK – are living in democratic countries, “the voters” are,ultimately,the SUPREME judges of who has the best chance of winning and the rest of us abide by their decision. Unless of course the voters are now considered fools whose views are meaningless or at worst, obsolete. It would seem that the powers that be will defend the right of fools to die in defense of their country, defend the right of fools to unnecessarily abort their child,defend the right of someone born with a penis to identify as a woman and yet, when it comes to voting for their national government these same fools are incapable of making the “correct” decision. The powers that be need to be flushed away and the M.S.M. propaganda machine exposed for what it is.
End of rant.
Teenager Greta Thunberg accused politicians of ignoring the climate emergency when she addressed around 15,000 people at the Bristol Youth Strike 4 Climate event in the west of England. bbc.in/2vqSuYD
Perhaps little miss muffet could be called the Severn Bore, in that she rushes in, causes a bit of a disturbance and then disappears. And no one’s any the wiser afterwards.
Apologies for interrupting the good flow of views but it’s time for the weekend thread . The prize for coming first will be not to have wall to wall coverage by the BBC of a 17 year old mentally disordered Scandinavian child who looks anorexic …..
Imagine a libertarian or populist gathering in a city to put their point of view .
An organiser asks them to take one step back to make room at the front .
Then asks if there’s a medical person to attend something in the middle of the crowd .
Then tells the masses that an ambulance must get through .
Wouldn’t The News Quiz and The Now Show make hay out of that ? *
Replace any of these ; populist , libertarian , conservative , Catholic , Orange Order , monarchist , pro life , English Defence League , Help For Hero’s , an anti BBC gathering
For
Climate Change activists , Greta Thunberg supporters , social justice , climate justice etc
And you know if the BBC will mention at least three times there was urgent medical attention needed at a gathering .
Corona isn’t a beer. It’s a very expensively procured brand and image. You don’t drink Corona because of the taste (most beers like it are virtually identical), you drink it because of the brand awareness. The brand and name is now heavily tarnished. So you stop drinking it. https://t.co/K7t3MxKrtK
Oddly, the BBC Remain establishment seemed oddly chilled about a certain Speaker, and still campaigns fir his lordship by droite du seigneur.
Rutnam is a bad enemy to make. Considered, deliberate, brave. #Priti is toast. Boris will have her stabbed in the next few days. https://t.co/qfxhLL6qNr
Of course, Laura doesn’t quite click that the swamp running straight to the swamp to get at Boris via Patel may play less as planned outside the bubble.
Rutnam has just taken highly unusual step of making a public statement – we’ll have it v shortly on @BBCNews – I can’t remember a senior public official taking a step like this

There had been violent opposition to the Congolese performer from political opponents who threatened to disrupt his gig.
So it’s possibly yet another example of importing third world savagery – sorry, I mean enrichment.

The BBC appear to have created another slot for a newly appointed reporter:
