Did you listen to this discussion on Today this morning concerning the issue of when global powers should intervene abroad with military force? Obama addressed this issue in his speech in Cairo and then this is compared to a speech given by Tony Blair in Chicago in 1999. In essence, the BBC approves of the “pragmatism” that pervades Obama’s triangulating and dhimmifed speech and it’s one more opportrunuty to attack … Continue reading
BBC Today site opens with the banner headline ” Brown seen as a towering figure”. The day after the most disastrous of election results. Amazing. The bias is so deep they cannot even see it. Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Cameron to Hugh Edwards: “Even the BBC… will have to say these are good results” (smirk) Nick Robinson (on a day when Labour failed to retain a single county council): “Gordon Brown is stronger than he was, but not by much.” Gordon: “I will not waver… I will get on with the job” The job being what, exactly?

You couldn’t make it up! Even as Gordon Brown is wading deeper into the mire of hypcritical cant during his press conference , Caroline Flint times the release of her resignation from Government. That’s TWO resignations in one day!!!! Unbelievable. If you’ve been watching the Prime Ministerial press conference, what did you think of it? It’s like watching a car wreck. Even John Major looks good compared to this…. Click … Continue reading
John Humphrys’s reticence about his pay packet wasn’t down to personal shyness after all. They’re restrained by a BBC gagging order.Harriet Harman’s equality bill has its uses, says Andrew Gimson of the Telegraph. It seems that will un-gag them.“How brilliant of Miss Harman to turn this modish argument against the BBC, that home of modish causes.” Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Been watching the BBC coverage of the local council elections. Quite remarkable. It seems that the angle the BBC has decided to push is best to admit that Labour is doing badly – but remember, they performed similarly in 2004 and then won in 2005! However the Conservatives have not really made a break through. (As they win everywhere) Meanwhile the Lib-Dems are on the up (Yes, even as they … Continue reading
Well then, today sees all sorts of political drama and/or farce. Gordon has reshuffled Darling, erm, back into the role he occupies as Chancellor – strong stuff my friends. Here’s a thread for you to comment on what you observe. For what it’s worth, I detect the BBC, UNBELIEVABLY, are still doing their level best for Gordon but we all know it’s over, as Roy Orbison would have said. So….now … Continue reading

I am so acclimatised to the air-brushing from the original I/P peace plan of any requirements from the Arabs that I can’t tell if one report is any more biased than another. Reports and analyses of Obama’s speech conclude that this ‘reaching out to the Muslim World’ malarky that everyone is so delighted with, must mean Israeli settlements are now officially the only obstacle to peace. Although President Obama didn’t … Continue reading
