Comments Off on As Mandy Rice Davies Would Say……..

“They would say that wouldn’t they.”That’s how anything said in Israel’s defence by the likes of Melanie Phillips, Alan Derschowitz, Robin Shepherd, or anyone Jewish, is brushed aside.The BBC’s anti Israel bias is so pervasive that it is impossible for anyone to defend Israel almost anywhere in the world without being dismissed by someone uttering the notorious Mandy Rice Davies quote. “I didn’t know you were Jewish,” the reflexive exclamation … Continue reading →

Comments Off on THOSE GAZA DEATHS…

What a surprise! The BBC is flogging the allegations by the anti-Israel “human rights” group B’Tselem that many more Palestinian civilians were killed in the Israeli military’s campaign this year in Gaza than the Israeli army admits. B’Tselem said “detailed research” showed that out of 1,400 Palestinian deaths, 773 were civilians – many of them children. Shamnesty International claims of Israeli war crimes are thrown in for good measure! Now, … Continue reading →

Comments Off on GREEN SHOOTS OF RECOVERY

It would not be a normal week if the BBC was not pushing the idea that the recession is over and that green shoots of recovery are now being spotted everywhere. The Employment market is “starting to show signs of recovery” and the decline in vacancies and pay is easing. Looks like Captain Brown has steered us through the icy seas of recession and all is looking up. Rejoice, Vote … Continue reading →

Comments Off on LEAVIN’ ON A JET PLANE

Having spent yesterday availing myself of the convenience of modern air travel, I tune in the BBC this morning to hear an all out attack on this necessity of everyday life. Just after 7am, there was someone on to claim that we should stop ALL domestic flights, this was balanced by further interviews with those who suggested that taxes on domestic and business would have to be scaled up IF … Continue reading →

Comments Off on THE PBC?

Wouldn’t the BBC be better off if it changed it’s name to the Palestianian Broadcasting Corporation such is the stream of relentless anti-Israeli propaganda disguised as “news” that it produces. It’s not just the irksome but repeated use of the biased “occupied West Bank” term but linked headings such as “Israeli troops “ill treat kids”, and “Breaking silence on Gaza abuse” (and yip, the abusers are Israelis, natch) and then … Continue reading →

So,”three men” have been convicted of plotting to kill thousands of people by blowing up planes from London to North America with home-made liquid bombs. Home Secretary Alan Johnson says that “This case reaffirms that we face a real and serious threat from terrorism.” Interesting piece of analysis from the BBC but I think something is missing….

Listened to an interview with Jason McCue, the lawyer for some of the NI victims of Libyan funded IRA terrorism just after 7.30am – within a minute he had a go at the Conservatives. He also pointed out that in his view Brown had not done a u-turn. What a canny Lawyer and how convenient for Prudence. Gaddafi’s son Saif al-Islam (Catchy name) is now painted as the bad guy, … Continue reading →

Comments Off on Some Are More Equal Than Others …

I would love to be a fly on the wall at the conferences where the items for BBC television and radio news are decided – to try and work out why some stories make it and some don’t. Murders are a case in point – there are about a thousand a year over the United Kingdom – three a day. Yet not only do 90% of them not make the … Continue reading →

SPINNING FOR GORDON

Comments Off on SPINNING FOR GORDON

I saw this on the BBC news and spotted you discussing it on the Open Thread and felt it deserved further attention. Gordon Brown has been exposed thanks to the Sunday Times as being the man who personally vetoed Libyan pay outs to the victims of IRA terrorism. Libya shipped Semtex and arms to the IRA for several years from 1985. Lawyers representing British victims have evidence that the Semtex … Continue reading →
