Did you catch this interview with the incoming Archbishop of Westminster the Most Rev Vincent Nichols on Today earlier this morning? Nichols was attacked within a few minutes for daring to suggest that British Roman Catholics oppose the abortion/condom advertising plans from Brown and his pals, and of course the Pope’s words on Aids in Africa were taken and quoted out of context. I wish the Archbishop well as I … Continue reading
Perhaps you have already seen this remarkable BBC item suggesting that Mrs Thatcher was not really “Thatcherite”! It’s amazing how much hatred the BBC retains for Lady Thatcher, even after all these years. If only she had destroyed the BBC when she had the chance… Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
I see that the BBC is leading on Today this morning with the intriguing proposition that our current immigration system works as well as it can and that the risk of terrorist atrocity is manageable. There you go, no reason for concern – all is well thanks to the wise Dear Leader and his every obliging BBC poodle! Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
BIASED BBC QUESTION TIMEOK, so coming up on tonight’s programmes, here are the questions that will be posed for discussion and YOU are the guest panelist as libertarianism finally breaks through and asserts itself! 1. The BBC is biased. Yes? In favour of right of left values. Really? Provide instances of this so we can lobby the State broadcaster! 2. Do you think the BBC coverage of the G20 Conference … Continue reading
Hi all! Just getting my feet back under the B-BBC table after being away for the past week and what I thought we could do is that given the fact that Question Time is off-air for another few weeks we could do our OWN Question Time. What are the questions you would like to discuss – in particular relation to the BBC’s coverage of current news? Make your suggestions below … Continue reading

Another poisonous piece from the Man from Laramie. Another immature puerile stream of puke; clumsy, artless, biased and inept. He got so carried away with his description of Palestinian hardship seasoned with lashings of sentimentality that he almost forgot to add the obligatory token reference to eight years of inconvenience from a few irritating home-made rockets. Apart from that brief allusion, he neglected to include any smidgeon of a clue … Continue reading
I thought Evan Davis did a gratifyingly balanced interview with David Howarth and Peter Smyth this morning about the incident at the G20 protest. If only they could apply that approach to other subjects, things wouldn’t seem quite so hopeless. I’d like to hear what everyone else thought.

Didn’t listen to start the week, but because of the half-price offer I’ve been reading the Telegraph quite a lot. There’s always something in there about the BBC, and today there’s another item by Tim Walker, “Mandrake,” headed “Mystery of BBC’s tax cut for Bono.” A guest on Marr’s programme on Monday morning, Marina Hyde, alluded to Bono’s tax arrangements. “Your lifestyle can undercut the moral seriousness of your mission,” … Continue reading
I see on several sites- likes Alice’s for example, or the Times– that UK manufacturing output is falling at the fastest rate since 1981. I can’t find a story about it on the BBC UK page, and no-one has mentioned any coverage of it in the comments. On the other hand, I have seen repeatedly that the EU is to support UK car manufacturing. Can it be the BBC doesn’t … Continue reading
