THE RIGHT TO PREACH HATRED…

29 Comments

In a preamble to an announcement tomorrow from Theresa May requiring our Universities to be less submissive in their disturbing accommodation of militant Islam, Today had a “debate” between James Brandon, head of research at the Quilliam Foundation, and Nicola Dandridge, of Universities UK. Mr Brandon was sympathetic to the views of the Home Secretary and got a tough time by Justin Webb. He was interrupted, corrected and he even had to endure the BBC interviewer actually challenging his questions on behalf of Dandridge!!! Ms Dandridge herself was the typical Ivory Tower dhimmi one would expect but her views obviously resonate with the BBC and so she gets an easy ride whereas Mr Brandon was attacked. The BBC is Islam’s little helper and this interview was just a small example of all that it does for the Religion of Peace.

A TANGLED WEBB

Another interesting insight into the biased mind of the BBC here. Justin Webb evidently has a problem with “Big Pharma” in true comradely fashion so when some of the world’s major producers of important drugs announce plans to supply at cost an anti-diarrhoea drug for African children, he is immediately suspicious and accuses them of seeking to curry our favour by “taxing” the NHS more in order that this can engage in such commercial magnanimity. The GSK spokesman is pretty sensible in what he says but you can sense the smouldering hostility from Webb. Through the prism of the left, personified by Webb, there is something inherently wrong in the profit motive and so all vendors of capitalism must be challenged even when,as in this case, they choose to save millions of lives.

PLAN B….

Lovely pouting Sarah Montague doesn’t care much for George Osborne. If you listen to this interview the tone in her voice towards him is positively glacial. It all concerns a concerted leftwing attack on the Coalition’s economic policies and naturally the BBC has been to the fore in promoting their sub-Keynesian nonsense. As the prelude to the interview with Osborne, the BBC rows in with “an increasing number of economists are suggesting the Chancellor should be thinking again about the speed of the cuts” meme that is essentially Labour Party policy. Cue Stephanie “Two Eds” Flanders.  

Osborne does very well, I think, by at several points picking up on what he rightly characterises as BBC misrepresentation. When I hear a senior Conservative tackle the BBC bias head-on I wonder why more do not follow. It’s only when you let them assert their bias unchallenged that they succeed. The BBC just cannot accept that Osborne is doing a much better job than their heroes such as Gordon “We saved the world” Brown and so it seizes on every piece of bad economic news  and ignores any good economic news in order to try and tack behind the Labour narrative that the “cuts” need to be reduced. Note that Nick Robinson is brought in at the end to “comment” on Osborne’s answers and he immediately starts talking about the mythical Plan B.

ISRAEL – IN THE DOCK AGAIN

Watching the BBC report on the bad and evil Israelis “opening fire” on harmless liberty loving and  defenceless “Pro-Palestinian” demonstrators in Syria i.e Boy Bashar’s unofficial attention diverting stormtroopers. This is a nice little hit and run job on Israel and Syrian State TV is such a reliable soure.

Anyone catch this wonderful interview on the BBC this morning with Millie Tant and her feminist tendency? It concerns the opening of a Playboy club in London and all good feminists are up in arsm against this unspeakable evil. I bet that she was speaking on behalf of  every good Beeboid although to be fair Michael Winder took the proverbial!

WHEN NANNY STATE IS UNWANTED

For as many years as I can remember, the BBC has propagated the line that the State always knows what is best for us. This is particularly accentuated when the Government is Socialist but the BBC default line is that State knows best. So I was somewhat surprised to hear John Humphrys suggest during this interview that the State should keep its nose out of our business. The subject: The sexualisation of children. Listen to his sneer at “Daily Mail” readers during this. I thought Nadine did alright but you could tell that she was a hostile witness.

GUARDIANISTAS OF THE WORLD UNITE!

A Biased BBC reader advises me;

Have a look at this review of over 2,700 links (only a portion of thousands more links, but adecent chunk)  It is a snapshot of outward bound links to National Dailes taken on 31st May 2011 around 9:15pm. The Guardian is way out infront. It’s either disproportionate advertising which I believe is against the rulesor is bias towards one newspaper, or both.

THE EVIL OF CAPITALISM

Was away yesterday so hence lack of posts but having got back I see the BBC are still running with their meme that the private sector and the “profit” motive are deleterious to our good health. They have been combining  the issues of Southern Cross and Bristol Nursing Home  to weave the narrative that only the well run financially responsible always-caring NHS can provide us with good healthcare. I believe they betray their own inherently Statist mentality in the way they portray this meme. The BBC seems to believe that the State is morally virtuous because it never has financial issues since it can thieve from the taxpayer. I can think of £3 billion reasons why they hold such an opinion.
