HAWKING HAWKINGS

The BBC likes Professor Stephen Hawkings and he was on Today this morning. His profound atheism is a quality that they admire and his physics background provides a convenient distraction when he comes out with statements such as there is no God and that man made global warming warming may well bring about the end of mankind. I suppose it is one of those ironies that because of his condition, Hawkings gets to make statements without interruption but I have to say that I find his views pretty offensive and for a supposedly clever man, he makes some very stupid comments It’s not exactly bias but I believe that he is used by the BBC because his alleged genius advances their narrative of god-hating and global warming advocacy.

NO WHITES ALLOWED


I have made my own opinion clear. Diane Abbott should have the right to say what she wants, no matter how seemingly racist or 19th century it is. I also believe she should have been disciplined by Miliband and axed from This Week. But the BBC treatment of this story alarms me because it seems to believe that the issue of black racism cannot be debated by a white person. Why?

Last night, on Newsnight, the BBC dragged on race hustler Darcus Howe and Sunder Katwala (who kept praising Darcus as an intrepid equality warrior)  This morning, BBC today brought on Yasmin Alibhai-Brown and Diran Adebayo to cover the issue. Both agreed Diane was not racist and that her defence that she was referring to 19th century colonial issues had legs! Unbelievable.

I would like to WHY the BBC felt unable to allow someone from the “community” Diane seems to have a problem with to be afforded the opportunity to comment on her tweet. Perhaps we know why…..?

Biased BBC contributor Graeme Thompson writes;

“Is this an impartial BBC journalist engaging Republican nomination candidate Rick Santorum, or a sneering, jeering Obama supporter trying to lob custard pies at him?

The gentleman in question is Newsnight’s Peter Marshall, which, to anyone familiar with his ouvre, may feel the above question already answered. For the record, I do think Mr Santorum’s comments as reported are ‘off beam’, shall we say, but Mr Marshall’s approach is, as ever, that of left wing antagonist.

I will never forget Mr Marshall’s propaganda pieces on Newsnight on behalf of Al Qa’eda in the wake of 7/7. The man is an obscenity on legs. B-BBC has recorded for posterity an exchange Stephen Pollard had with him over his shilling for Al Q’aeda (scroll down the link). While the BBC insists on employing such overt and odious left-wing antagonists as – cough, cough – ‘journalists’, it’s clear just how deep institutional left-wing bias runs at the BBC.”

ABBOTT-GATE

Why haven’t the anti-racist BBC sacked her from her regular gigs?

With the Lawrence case omnipresent, why is the BBC so MUTE on Diane?
UPDATE

 Diane Abbott MP 

Tweet taken out of context. Refers to nature of 19th century European colonialism. Bit much to get into 140 characters

UPDATE

Billy Bragg
Daily Mail angry over Diane Abbott remarks – trust they will now demand an apology from anyone who generalises about race

HALF THE STORY, ALL THE TIME

It all seems so plausible.

Families with children will be hardest hit by tax and benefit changes aimed at cutting the deficit, a charity argues. The Family and Parenting Institute (FPI) says the average income of households with children will drop by 4.2% between 2010-11 and 2015-16, the equivalent of £1,250 a year.

Thank goodness for the FPI, right? I mean it is doing us all a favour in exposing the cruelty of Coalition policy. Making the poor poorer,

Here’s the odd thing. The FPI quango was set up by Labour as its main advisor on the future of the family. So, just to be accurate, the alleged “charity” is a Labour Party front producing a report which – quelle surprise – is critical of the Government. Whatever next? I have no issue with the BBC reporting the faux story – the rest of the UK MSM has followed – but I think it has an obligation to spell out who the Family and Parenting Institute is so that we can then make our minds up on the validity of the report, don’t you?

IT’S ALL ABOUT RACISM?

Well then, I doubt that there is anyone who has turned the BBC on today who has not been beaten around the head by the racism that abounds in the UK, in the Police, and as manifest in the murder of Stephen Lawrence. Look, like all civilised people I find the murder of any person revolting (One reason I am in favour of the death penalty, unlike the self righteous but hypocritical BBC ) but the BBC is absolutely cloying with all this talks of “Institutionalised racism.” I was amazed to hear former Met Commissioner Lord (sic) Blair actually boasting about the fact that the Police no longer treat all murders as equal. Truly we live in Orwellian times. I don’t understand how the BBC can elevate the murder of Stephen Lawrence to be above that of so many other vile acts but yet if we believe what it is broadcasting that is exactly the case. Do you agree?
