Nick Griffin reverberations continue loudly, but meanwhile our friends at the BBC are pushing as hard as ever this weekend in their climate change nonsense. The corporation desperately wants agreement in Copenhagen, and is leaping at every opportunity to support moves which will have only one real effect: to condemn millions in Britain and throughout the world to fuel poverty. Posted this morning was a story which, as usual, has … Continue reading
Are one in five really considering voting for the BNP?If so, and Nick’s appearance on QT was the catalyst, some thoughts belatedly occurred to me. It’s generally accepted that QT exposed him as a holocaust denier and racist. Yet despite that, and despite the fact that being a racist is perceived as the ultimate wickedness, one in five have somehow managed to push Nick’s racism to the back of their … Continue reading
The aftermath of Question Time on the interweb is riveting, unlike the show itself.The hooha does reveal the extent of everyone’s awareness of the BBC’s agenda.The BBC reduces it all to : Griffin Attacks Islam on BBC Show! Nick Griffin said he thought the sight of two men kissing on telly was creepy. The BBC spun that into “Nick Griffin says gays are creepy.” The villain. As the unremitting attack … Continue reading
Today programme news bulletins this morning: 6am – “Figures to be released this morning could show that the UK economy grew slightly in the third quarter of this year. If confirmed it would be the first quarterly growth since early 2008 and would mean that the recession is technically over.” 7am and 8am – “Many analysts expect figures out today will show that the British economy has started growing again…” … Continue reading
It’s getting a bit ridiculous now: The special BBC unit investigating the 5 Live sabotaging of a pre-recorded sports item with obscene material have finally interviewed alleged prime suspect Ben Jacobs three weeks after the incident.Yet it’s understood that Jacobs, who denies involvement, was only asked general questions such as how long he’s worked for the Beeb.These could easily been researched during the 25 days in which this BBC probe … Continue reading
As the dust settles over the Question Time BNP appearance, one thing is certain – the programme’s editors broadcast an atypical programme that was designed to attack Nick Griffin rather than explore (as it usually does) the issues of the day. I used to publicise the programme for the BBC. The then editors would never have permitted such a change in format, which they would have seen as a compromise … Continue reading

One of the BBC’s favourite goals is promoting the views of lefty organisations that operate in the developing world – the charidees favoured by the likes of Bono, and NGOs supported with unilateral fervour by DFID . Most of them are on the global warming bandwagon, so for the boys and girls in the BBC newsroom, finding an excuse to publicise them and their anti-capitalist, anti-industry views is not difficult. … Continue reading
