As many Britons bath in the post nuptuals of a recent diverse wedding we return to the sad prospect of biased al Beeb. Monday the 21st – start of the Grenfell inquiry, Tuesday 22nd – anniversary of the Muslim terrorist attack in Manchester and at the end of the week the Irish Referendum on abortion . And the ongoing attacks on President Trump, Brexit and anyone or anything of which … Continue reading
…. and if so, will the BBC help him to his feet? He didn’t sing the national anthem because he doesn’t know the words Er, or perhaps he does know the words but he was thinking of something else. (Well, at least he stood for it.) He will participate fully in future commemorations but cannot or will not say whether that will extend to exercising his vocal chords. He first … Continue reading

Im sure you can think of better words . But please try to … Continue reading
The scene. Whitehall. Just a few yards from the doors of Downing Street. A crowd of 4000 people gather to demand Free Speech. The ‘world class” journalists of the BBC somehow can’t find the event to report on it. Thus vindicating the event. Good old BBC – out to suppress speech it doesn’t like. For those interested, I have written an article on it here.
The Al Beeb “Start The Week” show discussed democracy and elections. Normally I would have hit the off switch but had to listen to hear the inevitable recital of attempts to undermine UK votes through a completely undemocratic unelected House of Lords.
