SINISTER RUGBY

Don’t know if you are a rugby fan but if you do share my enthusiasm for the game you may well be tuning in later today when the final chapter of the 6 Nations is played out. The climax is the game between Wales and Ireland at the excellent Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. So, how does the BBC cover this? Simple; they drag on some feminazi who finds the singing … Continue reading

NEVER MIND THE MURDERED – FEEL THE MURDERERS PAIN

I was reading this report on the BBC NI portal and it sickens me insofar as the way in which it is written tries to portray the police as villains when in fact all they are seeking to do is to apprehend the brutal killers of Police Constable Carroll, murdered by the “I can’t believe it’s the IRA” last week. Alex Maskey, a convicted bank robber and senior Sinn Fein … Continue reading

FRIDAY IS OBAMA DAY.

Gotta love Today. This morning I heard Thought for The Day pass off Obama’s teleprompter gaffe on St Patrick’s Day as proof he is human (don’t recall Bush getting the same generosity?) and then the BBC ran the spin that Obama “couldn’t believe” that AIG were going to pay out bonuses. Since the legal provision for this was signed into law by Obama, and drafted by a senior Democrat, he … Continue reading

QUESTION TIME LIVE!

Just to say we will be live later this evening for our weekly indulgence of Question Time. Fern Britton??? (I would have preferred Holly Willoughby I have to say if we are going to have presenters posing as political pundits ) Vince Cable – a biased BBC favourite graces the screen as does Fattie Clarke. Douglas Murray should be good and we can all have a laugh at the wretched … Continue reading

BURYING ISRAEL.

Well, it’s just too good an opportunity to miss, isn’t it? Israeli troops brutally murdering innocent Palestinians – hold the front page. The thing is that until an IDF investigation has concluded, this is mere anonymous speculation. If it is proven true, the IDF will deal with those found guilty. If it turns out to be as specious as much other media driven hostility towards Israel, then can we expect … Continue reading

A NEW QUAGMIRE!

Given that more people have died needlessly at Stafford Hospital than in the military campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan COMBINED, I was wondering why the BBC is not running a new campaign to get the Healthcare out of the “quagmire” that is the NHS? No blood for bureaucracy? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.

THE REAL PHONY

Did you see that the BBC have been giving great prominence to the rebuke issued to David Cameron by the repulsive Gorbals Mick in the Commons today? It all concerned Cameron using the word “phony” with regard to Brown’s refusal to accept culpability over his role in creating the current dire economic circumstances. Now I could think of many harsher words to describe how the Dear Leader is dealing with … Continue reading
