Extraordinary all the fuss over the US Presidential election…after all there is only one candidate..right?  Maybe I’m wrong but watching the BBC I understand the lone candidate is some dreadful, racist oaf called Trump.

Oh yes, the BBC did a programme on Clinton, Bill Clinton, and his shenannigans with a cigar and an intern.  That of course was all a lot of fuss about nothing…an overheated conspiracy cooked up by those appalling Republicans the BBC informs us.  Bill is innocent….much it seems as his other half is also innocent of having hidden her medical problems.

Hillary Clinton gets a few passing comments on the BBC but in comparison to the vast outpourings of liberal hate directed at Trump it amounts to little more than a hill o’ beans.

Check the BBC’s latest ‘indepth’ investigation into her health problems.   The BBC tries to pass it off as a bad case of the sniffles but fails to mention all the other health concerns that have struck Clinton down.  The Mail manages to list all her ailments….most of which seem somewhat serious.

The BBC dismissed concerns about her health as a ‘whisper campaign’ and ‘insinuations’ by Trump and his followers.

Seems Trump is a much more reliable source of information than the renowned BBC.

Following yesterday’s post, a Biased BBC reader says…

“A previously issued press release written by sister Patricia – which suggested that Arquette returned to using male pronouns by the time of death – read: “He died as he lived, on his own terms. Our brother Robert, who became our brother Alexis, who became our sister Alexis, who became our brother Alexis, passed this morning September 11, at 12:32 am.“”He was surrounded by all of his brothers and sisters, one of his nieces and several other loved ones. We were playing music for him and he passed during David Bowie’s ‘Starman’. As per his wishes, we cheered at the moment that he transitioned to another dimension.” This is from NME.com so not the most reliable of sources, but it’s quoting the press release by Patricia Arquette.

Even more interesting now that the BBC referred to Alexis as an actress…

An eagle eyed B-BBC observes;

“The BBC has long since dispensed with the gender specific term actress, yet today we have this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-37336973

Refusing to use the term actress created all kinds of funny situations, including a headline that stated that Francois Holland was having an affair with an actor (who turned out to be an actress). But suddenly Alexis Arquette (who he/she?)…”

Well, at long last the BBC has been forced to cover a topic which up until now it has declared to be simply an obsession of “right wing extremists and conspiracy theorists”. I refer to Hillary Clinton’s health. Her collapse in New York yesterday was captured on camera and so could not be denied (the Clinton’s camp preferred modus operandi) This morning we awake to the news that despite being told that the collapse was due to her “overheating” (on the coolest day in NYC this month) turns out she pneumonia, diagnosed on Friday past. BBC instantly accept this. Pneumonia is a serious illness that requires much more than 48 hours rest. We are being played by the Clinton camp and yet the BBC gratefully grasps any straws they throw. Funny how the world class journalists at the BBC never thought to investigate why Clinton was wearing BLUE glasses as she left her daughter’s apartment? They are anti-seizure lens she had in – but the BBC couldn’t be bothered to wonder why someone with “pneumonia” is wearing such. If you want REAL news, best ignore the BBC.

In true form, BBC Radio 4 Today starts the week with a gentle interview of Rabbi Julia Neuberger who is part of a group actively campaigning for the UK to let in “tens, if not hundreds of thousands of “refugees’ This desire to more closely emulate Germany and flood the UK with North African Muslims is a core BBC belief so when they bring on a fellow soulmate such as Neuberger on this issue there is a suspension of critical examination. Repulsive stuff.

Here you go, a new OPEN thread to start the new week. Here is where to detail the bias!

Hilarious stuff from Corbyn’s Shadow Foreign Secretary Emily Thornberry earlier today. Her stunning ignorance of her political brief  is profoundly exposed by Dermot Murnaghan and she responds by accusing him of “sexism” – a claim the BBC repeats in this story.

“The shadow foreign secretary has accused a TV interviewer of “sexism” after he asked her to name the French foreign minister. Emily Thornberry criticised Sky News presenter Dermot Murnaghan for “pub-quizzing” her as they discussed Brexit talks, saying it was “patronising”.

The Labour MP declined to name French minister Jean-Marc Ayrault, adding: “Can we talk about some serious stuff?” Mr Murnaghan said he had asked male politicians similar questions. He went on to refer to the time in 2011 when he asked the then shadow chancellor Alan Johnson about national insurance rates – a question the Labour MP was unable to answer. Ms Thornberry was asked if she had taken part in any Brexit talks with her would-be counterparts in Germany and France, and then if she knew the name of the French foreign minister.

“Don’t start pub quizzing me, Dermot,” she said. She was then asked again if she was able to name the minister. Ms Thornberry said: “No and I’m not going to start answering your questions on this.”

Well the reason she can’t start answering questions is because she doesn’t know the answer. Plainly ignorant of that she SHOULD know she retreats to the hollow charge of “sexism”  The BBC wallows in the notions that outside their echo bubble all men are sexist so it seeks to align somewhat with Thornberry even if it knows she is – like her boss – a figure of ridicule.

Looking at their news portal, the BBC have. Here’s a screen catch.

Oh hang on. They did manage to cover the anniversary insofar as their preferred Presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, collapsed again. Here’s the video…

Labour’s ‘friend’ of the IRA and shadow chancellor told us that he wanted ‘straight-talking and honest politics’….so they have suspended someone who quite correctly characterised the tight-knit group manipulating Corbyn’s rise to power (LOL) as ‘storm-troopers’.

The Sturmabteilung (SA; German pronunciation: [ˈʃtʊɐ̯mʔapˌtaɪlʊŋ] ( listen); literally Storm Department) functioned as the original paramilitary wing of the Nazi Party (NSDAP).

It played a significant role in Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in the 1920s and 1930s. Their primary purposes were providing protection for Nazi rallies and assemblies, disrupting the meetings of opposing parties, fighting against the paramilitary units of the opposing parties, especially the Red Front Fighters League (Rotfrontkämpferbund) of the Communist Party of Germany (KPD), and intimidating Slavic and Romani citizens, unionists, and Jews – for instance, during the Nazi boycott of Jewish businesses.

Sounds pretty familiar.

The BBC jump in and explain it all in detail (LOL)…though curiously all without a single mention of the virulent anti-Semitism that has surfaced all the more since Corbyn took power and is associated with many in the Leaderr’s circle, and no mention of the threats, intimidation and violence that is flowing torrentially from Corbyn’s supporters toward anyone who dares raise an objection to him.  Contrast that with how the BBC makes constant and determined attempts to smear ‘Brexit’ with racism and abuse.

And note no mention of the white wash inquiry into anti-semitism for which it is suggested Shami Chakrabarti was rewarded with a peerage.

What’s interesting is that the BBC do not delve any furhter into Foster’s claims…his article in the Mail is full of accusations of anti-Semitism…the BBC doesn’t touch it here….only reporting the ‘storm-trooper’ comment as if it was a smear that came out of nowhere.

When ‘67% of British Jews said they were concerned about his possible victory’ you have to ask why…the BBC doesn’t bother too much, especially as so much of the anti-Semitism seems to come from Labour Muslims.  This is of course the BBC that has little concern for the Jews in Europe who are under siege from new immigrant populations, this is the BBC that suggested that Jews should rightly expect to be attacked because of what Israel does, they sort of deserve it…the BBC’s natural default position is that whatever Israel does it is wrong.

I would suggest it is not only the Labour Party that British Jews need to worry about.
