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

Have a read of this slavishly pro-Obama wittering from Mark Mardell on the subject of Obamacare. It appears that despite appearances Obama had no real plan for health-care. Now he does and doesn’t Mark sounds excited? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
So, what do you make of the BBC’s coverage of the “Number 10 Bullying” story? Clearly Mandelson’s attempt to dismiss the entire issue of the Prime Minister’s character backfired but now the attention seems to be have switched to Christine Pratt and the National Bullying Helpline.

Anyone catch Andrew Marr’s fawning interview with the Greek PM on his awful show this morning. Why it seems all is well in Greece after all. Then we had Mandelson on to dismiss the idea that Brown is a bullying freak. Marr naturally went with this. Each day that goes by, the BBC is getting worse as it glimpses the outside possibility that Labour may not go down in flames … Continue reading
The BBC is not alone in its certainty over who killed the honourable Hamas Commander. While it is still by no means a foregone conclusion, other MSM have also known from the outset, and have had no problem telling the world, that Israel is the guilty party.As it stands there are many unanswered questions, inconsistencies, and suspects with a motive.Even if it turns out the culprit was actually an elderly … Continue reading
