The election continues, with all three main parties steadfastly refusing to discuss properly their insane, bigoted advocacy of massive new taxes on energy. Meanwhile, the BBC continues to report the agenda of greenies with relentless bias. Take this story about greenie fanatics stopping the import to Kenya of GM maize on the ground that it might contaminate the soil. Such supersititious rot would put Matthew Hopkins (the Witchfinder-General) to shame, … Continue reading

I had the misfortune to ensure 60 minutes of the BBC “Today” bias this morning and believe me, it’s just not good for your health! Between 7am and 8am, there was a stream of anti-Conservative propaganda spewing from the State Broadcaster and I speak as someone who is not a Cameron Conservative but believes in the need for balance! The farce started with Stephanie Flanders going over to Dublin. Apparently … Continue reading
Anyone watch Newsnight? Paxman interviewed Labour apologist Liam Byrne on the matter of the Conservatives £6bn savings vs Labour £15bn. Byrne just bluffed it and castigated the Tories. Probably as one would expect. But then, by way of “balance”, a businessman was in the studio to respond, It was suave Dragon’s Den star James Caan, and yes, he agreed with Labour and suggested that the Labour NIC hike next year … Continue reading
It seems to me that like Labour, the BBC does not understand why an increase in NIC is a tax on jobs.Perhaps Statism erodes the capacity for clear economic thinking but I listened in amazement to the BBC “Today” interview with Sir Stuart Rose, he of M&S fame. When Rose pointed out that the NIC increase with Brown and Clegg think so virtuous is a direct impediment to business growth, … Continue reading
Question Time this week comes from Woking, which is the town where the Martians first land in The War of the Worlds and also features in Douglas Adams’ book The Meaning of Liff as the word for when you go to the kitchen but forget why. Woking constituency is represented for the Conservatives by Humfrey Malins with a majority of 6,612. He supported Ken Clarke’s leadership bid in 2001 and … Continue reading
Please put the pressing issue of UK politics to one side for a moment to read the latest post on Robin Shepherd’s blog. It’s aimed at the BBC because of something they’re currently ignoring.Robin says he has reason to believe that BBC editors sometimes read his blog, and I sincerely hope they do. Whether they still read this one I know not. In case they do, I’ll reiterate here that … Continue reading
The pretence of impartiality has been scrapped in the last-minute scramble to change minds before Labour faces the electorate next month.Well, actually that’s a paraphrase of the introduction to this article. No mention of the fact that Labour has a large majority and that it has no need, based on this, to scrap anything. The correct reading of events must be that they are trying to disrupt Conservative campaigning by … Continue reading
Based on BBC GE coverage, two things strike me. 1. It’s going to be a hung Parliament.2. Most people are bored with it. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
