Here you go, a new Open Thread to see us all off into the weekend! Detail their daily stream of bias here…

Here you go, start the week with this New Open thread!

You have to hand it to the BBC, they do have chutzpah! How else to explain them doing their level best to portray notorious race hustler Diane Abbott as a role model for women entering politics?

Women may be deterred from entering politics because of abuse suffered by female MPs, Diane Abbott says. The shadow home secretary said she was speaking out about her own experiences after recently receiving a series of threats and insults. Last week Brexit secretary David Davis was branded “sexist” for reportedly sending a text saying he would not hug Ms Abbott because he was “not blind”.

Now to be fair, David Davis was wrong to say what he did. I don’t believe that a blind person would want to hug the odious Abbott, not for her looks but for her vile political views.  The BBC may be seeking to confer Sainthood on Abbott but I am convinced the more she speaks the more she destroys Labour.

I’m old enough to remember when the BBC took a very sympathetic line to the old USSR. But things have changed and the BBC now leads the charge against Putin. They have worked themselves up into a frenzy over the resignation of General Flynn, delighted that a scalp has been obtained so early on in the life of the Trump administration. They aren’t bothered about how it came to be that Flynn was hung out to dry by Obama era operatives still within the US intelligence services – the “Deep State’ as some refer to it. No, the BBC angle is that Trump is colluding with Putin in ways that they can’t quite work out, and so endless hours are being given to examining the issue.  Russia IS the BBC bogey-man, the nation that they would quite like us to go to war – and their visceral hatred of Putin shows,

Middle of the week and the daily bias from the BBC keeps on coming. THIS is where you detail it!

Another day and another instance of poverty hustling from the well off given max publicity on the BBC.

Nearly a third of the population of Britain is living on an “inadequate” income, according to research by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF). In 2014-15, it said that 19 million people were living on less than the Minimum Income Standard (MIS). It said the problem was that household costs have been rising, while incomes have stagnated.

Now the Rowntree Foundation specialises in this kind of specious clap trap, continually whining about just how awful life is and how dreadful the inequality is that afflicts our Nation.  I was amused at this new “measure” of what constitutes “inadequate” income – yes, the sexy new MIS.

The MIS is set by experts at Loughborough University, and is based on what members of the public think is a reasonable income to live on.

“Experts” at a University and based on what “the public think” – utterly risible and yet allowed to generate BBC headlines.  It’s a toss up between the Resolution Foundation and the Rowntree Foundation as to which can get the most mileage for their left wing agenda from the BBC.

I was on RT news and did not miss the target!

Monday and time for a new one of these! This is where you detail the bias!

Some satire for you. Or is it…?  This via The Codpiece, a friend of Biased BBC.

John Bercow insists it’s “literally impossible” for him to be politically partial because he reads The Guardian and watches BBC news.

Speaker of the House Bercow is expected to be politically neutral. But a series of massively partial outbursts have brought his position into disrepute, prompting calls for his sacking.

Mr Bercow believes the attacks are themselves politically motivated, instigated by “Daily Mail reading Tories”.

He said: “As an avid Guardian reader and BBC news consumer – TV, radio and digital – it’s literally impossible for me to be politically biased, so pure are my sources of information.

“My opponents, on the other hand, are clearly nothing more than rabble rousing, Daily Mail reading Tories who most definitely are motivated by rabid bias.”

Paraphrasing impartial Guardian and BBC narratives, Mr Bercow concluded: “Fuck Brexit. Fuck Trump. And Fuck you right-wing Conservative retards who are trying to oust me.”

Mr Bercow called rumours that he was once a Conservative MP himself “fake news”.

I’ve noticed a regular theme with Labour MPs allowed to canter around BBC studios. Take little Owen Smith, who was on BBC Question Time last night. He stated that “Trump is a proven racist and misogynist”. He isn’t alone in repeating this libel as if it were a fact. In truth I doubt Trump is remotely bothered about what this insect thinks but if I appeared on the BBC and suggested that Diane Abbott is a “proven racist” I suggest I would be given short thrift.
