The Day the Immigrants Left.A programme that did what it set out to do, prove that economic migration was necessary in broken Britain. It’s a foregone conclusion that such a programme would show that immigration Is a Good Thing. With a format reminiscent of millions of other irritating programmes, Evan Davis set out to give a pre-selected group of guinea pigs a challenge ‘to see how they got on.’As if … Continue reading
Question Time this week comes from 2009 European City of Sport, Cardiff. The panel is perma-tanned oxygen thief Peter Hain, the Shadow Defence Secretary Dr Liam Fox MP, the Plaid Cymru leader Elfyn Llwyd MP, UKIP’s Nigel Farage MEP and the unspeakably awful Janet Street Porter. For those who wish to take part in the Biased-BBC Buzzword Bingo, we will be playing by the “Flying Nokia Rules” meaning that anyone … Continue reading
The very sad death of Cuban dissident Orlando Zapata Tamayo has come at exactly the wrong time for Matt Frei whose first report from his visit to the communist dictatorship is a typically clichéd “triumph over adversity” BBC item. At least someone at the Beeb was embarrassed enough to mention “the death of one of the country’s leading political prisoners” in the blurb under Frei’s video. (Hat tips to various … Continue reading
Did the BBC withdraw Nigel Farage’s invitation to appear on last week’s Question Time in Middlesbrough over fears about what he might say regarding the closure of the Corus steel plant on Teesside? Tata and Pachauri do like to threaten their critics with lawyers (remember the BBC’s spineless response to complaints by the Muslim Council of Britain following Charles Moore’s QT comments). Or does the BBC not need a specific … Continue reading
I missed this in The Guardian last week: The Now Show, the vehicle for comedians Punt and Dennis, will be renamed The Vote Now Show, for the duration of the election campaign and broadcast every Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. FFS. The article also says that Labour Party supporter Simon Schama will be presenting Radio 4’s A Point of View for three months. Click through to read and contribute comments on … Continue reading
Last night, Irish republican terrorists detonated a car bomb at the Court House in Newry. No one was killed or injured but this was through good luck rather than design. Back in 1985, other Irish republican terrorists bombed this same building. Their proxies now sit in government. This morning, on the BBC, I heard the BBC’s political correspondent Mark Simpson claim that those responsible for the bombing last night had … Continue reading
Illegal immigration features strongly on the BBC this morning. If you listen to this item you will hear the BBC bemoan Obama’s failure to deal “radically” with the millions of illegal immigrants i.e handing them an amnesty for their law-breaking. This is an entirely one-sided issue as presented by Kevin Connolly and another example of how the BBC consistently favours illegal immigration.

Give a listen to Phil Woolas here getting away with blue murder as he waffles about Labour’s policy of mass immigration for social change. Note the amiable tone throughout and the little laugh at the end from Humphyrs. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Lord Carlile, the veteran Lib Dem peer, is complaining to the BBC Trust about the corporation’s biased coverage promoting the legalisation of so-called assisted dying. The phrase itself, of course, is repulsive Newspeak that citizen Smith would have instantly recognised. It’s a classic liberal BBC cause: how can it not be right to show ‘mercy’ to a dying loved one by smothering them or filling them with poison? My analysis … Continue reading
