BBC giving lots of publicity to McDoom’s suggestion that we emasculate the UK nuclear defence capability. Now then, no real surprise there since the BBC has been a long time supporter of Britain abandoning nuclear weapons. But what is REALLY bothersome is that in this article is that the only view used to “balance” McDoom’s suggestion are those of David Miliband, Nick Clegg and CND’s Kate Hudson. Anyone detect a … Continue reading
Another Thought for the Day from a Muslim cleric, this time Abdal Hakim Murad – Muslim Chaplain at the University of Cambridge. Abdal is very concerned about how people treat all those poor “asylum seekers” that the French cleared out of the jungle yesterday, even razing their temporary Mosque he adds. Indeed he went on to suggest that we have a duty to show “charity” towards such people by inviting … Continue reading

So, I’m driving home from the airport at the end of a long day and I turn on the radio to relax. Mistake. I happened upon the first in a new series of File on Four. It was about the terrorist threat we face here in the UK. It was about the extremists that seek to cause mass slaughter. It was about….the “extreme right”. Intrepid BBC reporter Alan Urry sets … Continue reading
Isn’t it remarkable that despite the extensive coverage the BBC affords those who squat on the northern French coast awaiting their first berth into land of hope and welfare, there is never any proper consideration as to WHY they cross vast land masses in order to get into the UK? The BBC meme is that the United Kingdom should welcome all who decide to come here and this permeates every … Continue reading
So, it’s quite early in the morning, and I turned on the BBC Word Service just after 5am. Talk about bias! A charming female presenter, with a decidedly non-British accent, read out in the space of 15 minutes a litany of one-sided BBC liberal bias. We were told about the very important UN meeting on climate change and “fears” that it might not succeed (whose fears?); we were told about … Continue reading
Jeremy Bowen has written another article summarising the conflict in the middle east in which he refers authoritatively to the fundamental differences between the two sides. With signs of strain palpably peeping through the prose, he fulfills his obligation to present Israel’s case, as all impartial journalists must. To set the scene, he describes some tacky, militaristic fripperies tourists can purchase at Tel Aviv airport. Inflatable helium balloons shaped like … Continue reading
Earlier this month the BBC’s Director of Global News Richard Sambrook admitted that the BBC should have given more coverage to the story about Obama’s wacky green jobs czar Van Jones. Since then, another scandal embarrassing to the president – this time concerning the Obama-supporting community activist group ACORN – has registered little more than a tiny blip on the BBC news radar. Today revelations have emerged about the National … Continue reading
• US in Afghanistan failure warning • Italians mourn Afghanistan dead • UK army ‘rotten’, Iraq probe told Full marks for BBC News today – three of the top online headlines fitted neatly into one of the key items on the Corporation’s agenda which appears to be to do everything possible to build up the Taliban as the genuine voice of the Afghan people and to undermine the NATO mission … Continue reading
As a Biased BBC reader for at least five years, I know that its essence is variety. My second post as a new contributor, therefore, was going to be about something other than the wretched BBC obsession with climate change. However, that was before I heard the unspeakable John Prescott lecturing me on R4’s World at One this lunchtime. He, a jumped-up, thuggish shop steward with no scientific training whatsoever, … Continue reading
