The death of Jack Jones, the Trades Union baron from the 1970’s who helped bring Britain to it’s knees, has produced grand eulogies on the BBC this morning, with the game being how often the word “socialism” could be repeated in one sentence. Determined not to let the moment pass, BBC stalwart St Tony Benn was invited on to talk about his good fried Jack and instantly turned it into … Continue reading

Remarkable to see the BBC leading it’s main news with the fact that Tesco have clocked up record profits. Not so much focus on the international scope of the Tesco performance but hey, when the role of the State Broadcaster is to hype up green shoots of recovery, every little helps, right?

We are invited to feel their pain, and of course the police treatment afforded them is with kid gloves. Compare this treatment to that afforded to the Country Sports supporters by both the BBC and the Police. Click through to read and contribute comments on this … Continue reading
…go back to your constituencies and prepare for victory! So goes the BBC narrative on behalf of the Labour government this morning, with useful fools like the CBI chipping in to try and help the hapless Darling.

Thankfully, Australia and the Netherlands has joined the US, Israel, Italy and Canada in boycotting the talks. The gutless Brown administration IS sending a delegation, but at least no senior official will be present. The hard left, including the BBC of course, approves of these UN assaults on the … Continue reading
