Anti-Zionists have persuaded the BBC to alter a report about a row at the meeting held at the School of Oriental and African Studies, (SOAS) in which the guest speaker was South African trade unionist Bongani Masuku. Mr. Masuku has been condemned for hate speech by the South African Human Rights Commission. The SOAS audience consisted of pro Palestinian left wingers who wanted to confer chummily amongst themselves and share … Continue reading
Anyone catch the BBC lead item on Today this morning at 8.10am? In a marvellous example of what the BBC sees as balance, we had Roger Harribin and Lord Stern discussing the chances of a “positive outcome” for those “developing nations.” The very idea that these third world kleptocracies are out to get as much of our financial resources as possible is never discussed.

Sorry to see Sir Terry Wogan broadcast his final early morning show. I think he was one of the few stars left in the BBC crown and when Chris Evans take his place in January I shall not be listening.

On the BBC, it’s nowhere. Step by step, the ‘climate change’ scam is disintegrating. But you won’t hear about it on … Continue reading
