The BBC has gone to war, against the government, against those who voted for Brexit,  against Trump and those who voted for him.  The BBC’s bubble, it’s comfort zone, where it and its fellow travellers control the media narrative and thus they hope the politicians, is being rapidly burst as the unthinkable happens, and keeps on happening.  A majority Tory government was never supposed to happen, the BBC predicted the end of the normal party political system, Brexit was never going to happen and Trump, that racist, sexist, vulgar Islamophobe had no chance in hell of getting elected….and what next as elections and referendums are ongoing across Europe?  The BBC is terrified it is all over for them and their ilk.

The BBC as political analyst is pretty much a waste of space.

The reason is simple…they don’t deliver the news they deliver what they want you to hear…and that doesn’t correspond to reality.

Their desperate response, as the Right sweeps to victory across the free world, is to go to war.

It’s a war of words but with massive political implications.  The BBC in the last three days has fed the watching public three huge lies.  Three huge lies that are massively political and with what the BBC hopes huge political fallout.

First we had the attack on Trump claiming he had betrayed the people who voted for him saying he had now u-turned on Obamacare…the truth was that what the BBC claimed he only said a few days ago he actually said over a year ago and then again many times more, in televised debates. Second big lie….the NHS is attempting to keep its reforms a secret because they are so bad…again a lie, a lie shot down on the Today programme by the man who authored the report that the BBC was basing their big lie upon…and yet throughout the day they kept up that lie.  The third big lie came today when they quite deliberately reported, without any regard as to whether it was true or not, that ‘a cabinet memo’ had been leaked that made serious and damaging criticisms of the government and the Brexit process.  This was a blatant lie that was also shot down on the Today programme and yet the BBC continued to report the memo as if it was fact, even though they at one stage admitted it was merely a firm of consultants pitching for business from the government and was not solicited nor commissioned by the goverment.  The BBC are now telling us how important this memo is despite it being to all intents and purposes a ‘fake’ leaked by the Remain camp in order to stir up trouble….

Does the Brexit memo matter?

The document does matter because it underlines what we have reported and others have written about many times.

No, actually, it doesn’t matter one jot.  It says nothing that hasn’t been spun by anti-Brexit sources for months now…there’s nothing new and it has absolutely no authority nor credibility being a freelance effort by a company that is desperate to stay in the EU.  To the BBC it is important because it peddles the same pro-EU narrative that the BBC has been peddling for months now.  Go figure.

No coincidence that the fake ‘cabinet memo’ parrots exactly the themes of Labour’s John McDonnell’s upcoming speech and has been released just before he makes this speech…..

Meanwhile, shadow chancellor John McDonnell is due to say that the government’s “shambolic” approach to Brexit is failing to equip the UK economy for leaving the EU.

In a speech later, he will say the chancellor is isolated from cabinet colleagues and “too weak” to make Brexit a success.

The BBC is certainly going big.  Goebbels, Hitler’s master of propaganda, operated on the principle that the bigger the lie the more likely people are to believe it, and the more often it was made the better.

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

The problem the BBC has these days is that the Internet makes lying much more tricky.  Not only can people easily fact-check you but can then disseminate the truth to counter your lies that much more easily as they have never been able to before.

Which is why the BBC spends so much time now trying to persuade politicians to rein in and control the internet.  We’ve had the BBC stories about fake news, nearly always the attack is on ‘right leaning’ sources, though the BBC itself ironically being the master of that particular skill of disseminating fake news, and this line of attack resurfaced yesterday as the BBC helps those on the Left to try to attack Facebook by claiming it helped Trump become president and that Breitbart, which the BBC hates and falsely describes as essentially a far-right extremist, racist, anti-semitic site, also helped and now has one of its bosses advising Trump.  The BBC is obsessed with Facebook doing several long stories on it….

Note how once again the news source feeding the BBC the story is Buzzfeed…..the BBC seems to have a very, very close partnership with Buzzfeed….does it use Buzzfeed to dig out stories it can’t break for fear of looking partisan and then reports them as ‘Buzzfeed stories’? [It did the same with Whittingdale…they couldn’t break the story of his dalliances with a prostitute because it would look too obviously a politically motivated hit job…so they, in collaboration with anti-Press campaigners, got a small, almost unknown, website to break the story]

The BBC et al are aiming to control who is allowed to publish on the internet and what they say….they want to have the right to judge what is news, what kind of news stories are published, to make judgement calls on not just their truth but also on their merits ethically and morally or merely whether they fit in with the likes of the BBC’s own values and beliefs.

It is an extremely sinister attack on free speech and thought.  The BBC aims to police the internet so that news and views are filtered through a left-wing prism….want to talk about immigration or Islam or climate change?  No, sorry, they can’t approve that.

As said many times here, the BBC is one of the greatest threats to democracy, freedom and a civilised society.

The BBC milked this story for all it has been worth as part of its nauseating “The Government doesn’t know what to do about Brexit”…..and then this arrived later in the day

Downing Street has “wholeheartedly” rejected comments in a memorandum leaked to the press describing cabinet “divisions” over Brexit.

The document, compiled by consultancy firm Deloitte and obtained by the Times newspaper, says Whitehall is working on 500 Brexit-related projects and could need 30,000 extra staff. But the prime minister’s spokeswoman said the work had been “unsolicited”. And Deloitte said there had been no “access” to Number 10 for the report. No “input from any other government departments” had been received, the company added.

And then I should remind you of this...

David Sproul, Deloitte’s UK chief executive, is in favour of the UK remaining part of the European Union, while the rest of the Big Four keep their cards close to their chest

Deloitte – one more embittered Remain organisation being used by the BBC in pursuance of its Remain agenda.

Will they EVER stop weeping?

The week is flying by so here’s a new thread to DETAIL the bias! Over to you, dear reader.

A Biased BBC reader writes…

“The News at Ten carried a rather gratuitous and grizzly feature last night where Ian Pannell prances around with the drug cartels, ghoulishly watching people inject heroin and dishevelled child drug mules, to show what an amazing journalist he is. The images of squalor, desperation, jacking up and overdosing were framed against Donald Trump’s “build a wall” policy.  

We know that, for the BBC, exposure to facts and genuine information does not matter anymore. If you can stomach the vulgarity and exploitation of the report – and if only the BBC could look beyond its bias and rhetoric – then facts and genuine information would suggest that improved border security – like a wall – is vital to stop the spread a heroin plague sweeping America, leaving countless people dead in its wake. 

Shame then that the BBC has spent the last 18 months stating that “build a wall” policy is vile and racist, born from hate speech and intolerance.  I wonder what would have happened if they ran this report when Trump announced the policy…”

Fom Guido:

The BBC’s World News America presenter Katty Kay is somewhat creatively telling US television viewers that Britons regret voting for Brexit. Last night Katty said on NBC’s Meet the Press that people didn’t really want to Leave and that Remain would win a second referendum:

“We did opinion polls afterwards that showed that, actually, if we were to hold the referendum again, Remain would win. There were people who came on the BBC who said, “You know what? I voted to leave but I didn’t actually think we were going to leave. It was a protest vote.” And I think what we’ve seen during the course of this week is the kind of simple, clarion call of change crashing up against the complexity of actually governing.”

This is for the birds, as recent YouGov polls and the pollster Matthew Goodwin have explained:

“There is scant evidence of buyer’s remorse. As the tumultuous summer of 2016 drew to a close, 52 per cent of voters still said that Brexit was the “right decision”.”

The Beeboids just don’t get it

The Labour Party is in turmoil and unable to provide an effective opposition and so the BBC steps up and does the job for them.  There are changes being planned for the NHS and the BBC has decided to shout very loudly that, in its interpretation of a study, these are being kept secret for political reasons.  That’s despite being told in no uncertain manner by the report’s author that this is not the case.  The BBC has gone through the 90 page report with a fine tooth comb, ignoring the vast bulk that explains what is going on and carefully, very carefully, selected out, from a single, very small section, the few words or phrases that support its contention that there is a huge cover up going on and changes to the NHS are being deliberately kept from the Public.

As said the BBC knows this isn’t true as the report author on the Today programme made clear and an honest analysis of the report itself would show.

Here’s what Chris Ham from the King’s Fund said [08:34] in response to Justin Webb suggesting the changes were being ‘conducted on purpose in secret’….

‘Can I just say these plans haven’t been developed in secret…There hasn’t been a plan to consult on until the end of October which was the deadline for each of these areas to submit their plans….they’ve been developed by the senior [NHS] leaders using their expertise knowing public consultation would have to occur.’

Justin Webb then did a u-turn and agreed that it was sensible not to publish the plans before they were developed properly…

In a way its perfectly right that they hold these talks in privtae as the risk is that you get all sorts of interest groups getting involved early on and possibly skewing them in a way that isn’t good for the Service [NHS]…more political than sensible…’

And yet the BBC has consistently ignored that and instead throughout the day been reporting a sensationalised story about ‘secrecy’ which came from one passage of the report and wrongly gives overemphasis to it thus creating a dramatic and sensationalist story of that supposed ‘secrecy’…..the use of the word ‘secrecy’ is of course a highly suggestive one that gives rise to thoughts of sinister plots and underhand dealings….the BBC has deliberately chosen that headline for political effect…..

NHS bosses ‘trying to keep cuts secret’

NHS chiefs are trying to keep plans to cut hospital services in England secret, an investigation has found.

Full details of 44 reviews of services around the country – which involve closing some A&Es or, in one case, a whole hospital – are yet to emerge.

That is because NHS England told local managers to keep the plans “out of the public domain” and avoid requests for information, the King’s Fund suggested.

Managers were even told how to reject freedom of information requests.

The local managers said they had been told to keep the process “private and confidential”, which one described as “ludicrous”, while another said the leadership had made the “wrong judgement call” in its approach to managing the process.

Another person involved complained about being in meetings and wondering why there were no “real people”, such as patients and members of the public, involved.

The King’s Fund was told senior leaders at NHS England and NHS Improvement, which regulate NHS trusts, wanted to “manage” the narrative around the process, because of the sensitive nature of some of the changes.

Let’s just look at who else is peddling that line about secrecy…..

One Diane Abbot [Labour]….

One of the most alarming aspects of the STPs is their secrecy…. In the world of the STPs, the public have no right to know.

Seen this delight? The BBC hates the fact that this country is STILL at least a nominally Christian country and it is out to use our TV license tax to do something about it.

 The BBC will reportedly increase its coverage of more religions and could broadcast Muslim Friday prayers after critics moaned coverage is biased towards Christianity.

Lord Hall of Birkenhead, head of the taxpayer-funded corporation, is reportedly inviting religious leaders to join discussions about multi-faith coverage.

Ibrahim Mogra of the Muslim Council of Britain said the BBC could cover Friday prayers from a mosque, cover Eid, or children attending Koranic lessons.

The controversial move is in response to criticism the taxpayer-funded corporation delivered a disproportionate amount of programming on Christianity compared with other religions.

Can we expect the Friday Call to prayer to boom out of our Radio care of the BBC? How long before we have Hijab clad BBC presenters providing the ‘news” it spews out?

“In 1265 Simon De Montfort formed the first parliament in England . Six hundred years later the common man still did not have the right to vote . The Chartist Movement was formed in 1808 , and the Reform Act 1867 , nearly sixty years later , brought in most of their demands . But still not everyone had the vote ; women were left out . It wasn’t until 1928 that we finally had universal suffrage for everyone . A worthy ideal one would have thought .

Not it seems for many of the BBC liberal/left self proclaimed intelligentsia . The workers in the north voted for Brexit , the ordinary Joe in America voted for Trump . They were in the D and E social strata , they didn’t go to college , they earned less than $ 33 000 , they were over 40 , they yearned for a time long ago , they had no union , they didn’t understand the complexities of the issue(s) , they were easily manipulated .

President Elect Donald Trump’s decision to appoint Stephen Shannon to the position of Chief Strategist has triggered the snowflakes in the BBC.

Mr Bannon stepped aside as executive chairman of Breitbart – a combative conservative site with an anti-establishment agenda that critics accuse of xenophobia and misogyny – to act as Mr Trump’s campaign chief.

The BBC are in full despair. Having done all they could to demonise Trump they now demonise all around him. Amusingly, they are now working on the premise that of ONLY Trump doesn’t do any of the things he promised he would do then all might be ok. What a pathetic bunch of sore losers they are, unhinged, unbalanced and out of time.
