There really would be a crisis if the BBC got through a week without reporting global warming alarmism as if it were news rather than propaganda. Listen to this by way of example. I am reminded of the old line “I’ve told you a million times not to exaggerate”. I suppose those whose academic tenure is predicated on hyping the hype have to do something but why should the State … Continue reading
Is it just me or did you also find the prattle of a Eurocrat of the efficacy or otherwise of the election process in Afghanistan a tad hypocritical? Mr Semple represents an organisation which consistently ignores the wishes of those European people that vote against EU policy so he is no position to lecture the Afghans on anything. I know that the BBC consider the EU to be a paragon … Continue reading
House of Dumb quotes Jeremy Vine: The Patients Association has uncovered “appalling” cases of poor hospital care. But did you want to sing the praises of the NHS after your operation? As Dumbjon comments, Now for Stage 2: counting up all those times when the BBC has reported on cases of alleged police brutality by asking people to ‘sing the praises’ of their local police. This link to Jeremy Vine’s … Continue reading
Interesting interview here this morning on the issue of the booming British population. Is it me or does Mr Humphyrs entirely miss the central issue – namely that the predominant reason for a booming UK population is due to “foreign born” mothers (Mostly Muslims) having way above replacement level birth rates whist the indigenous population birth-rate falls below replacement level. I found this a curious interview in the fine BBC … Continue reading
Ok then – just back on the site and having a look through some of the lively threads. All good stuff but I do wish that there was less swearing and fewer ad hominem attacks. That is no way to approach civil argument and just as you would not go up to a stranger (I hope!) and start swearing at them then I wish the same civility was extended to … Continue reading
Well then, it appears the NHS may not be quite the envy of the world that some of it’s propagandists – including the BBC- suggest. This is a tricky one for the BBC. You see the pain and anguish which the NHS causes to so many people cannot be cloaked on this occasion BUT one must be careful not to damage a State funded bureaucracy, after all you never know … Continue reading
The BBC is the main source of the misinformation that makes some people call all supporters of Israel ‘foam-flecked fanatics,’ and which makes us in turn think of those people as gullible fools. These wordbattles continue in the face of the mass of evidence piling up before your very eyes, evidence that some of you go to great lengths to avoid acknowledging.Fanatical Islamists can hold meetings in Kensington Town Hall, … Continue reading
I see that the eco-wackos will be out in force today, causing disruption for Londoners and costing the taxpayer lots of cash. Yet if one reads this report on the “Climate Camp” from the BBC one could be forgiven for thinking this is an outing from the Salvation Army rather than a hard left rabble with nothing better to do but threaten and disrupt the lawful activities of other citizens. … Continue reading
Well then, turned on the BBC news and it all looked very solemn. Yes, they are in mourning for that “political giant” Ted Kennedy who has died overnight. Given his support for IRA terrorism over the years, you will excuse me if I weep no tears for this man. The BBC eulogy was sprinkled with the word “liberal” although still pretending that Kennedy was admired “by all”. He was not, … Continue reading
Israeli PM Netanyahu was in London today (So am I!) to see Macavity and I have lost count the number of times that BBC reports make references to “occupied” parts of Jerusalem. Let us be straight. This is right out of the Palestinian propaganda playbook and it seems to me that the BBC is institutionally incapable of being fair-handed on this issue. Palestinians do not “own” so much as one … Continue reading
