Remainders losing it again…James O’Brien of course leading the charge…he clearly can’t let a day go by without a good dose of moral indignation to ease the flow of bile.  Today’s moral reprobates?  The Sun for their satirical take on the Bayeux Tapestry.  Jobby froths… Giving his verdict on LBC, James said: “Just for pause, because everyone likes a giggle, how do you think we … Continue reading →

Always knew that would come in handy one day. The BBC’s science editor, and climate change campaigner, studied English [and claims non-scientists shouldn’t be allowed to comment on climate change], and its politics correspondent, Chris Mason, studied Geography and Broadcasting….kind of figures….what did Nick Robinson study….ethics, morality and honesty in broadcasting? Somebody’s not a fan of Chris Mason…. First texter to #bbcqt Extra Time. Good evening… (I studied geography too) … Continue reading →

What did Labour say in its 2010 manifesto, when Andy Burnham was still Health Minister?…. ‘We will continue to press ahead with bold NHS reforms. All hospitals will become Foundation Trusts, with successful FTs given the support and incentives to take over those that are under-performing. Failing hospitals will have their management replaced. Foundation Trusts will be given the freedom to expand their provision into primary and community care, and … Continue reading →

    Ironic that an interview about women wanting equality with men should be conducted by a woman called ‘Newman’.  Cathy Newman possibly proving Jordan Peterson’s point that aggressiveness, being disagreeable and making a lot of noise will get you attention and promotion possibly to a level someway above your ability.  Then again it’s hardly a new thought…the squeaky wheel gets the grease. Channel 4’s response to the slagging [I … Continue reading →

  Turkey is supposedly about to launch an offensive against Kurdish forces in Syria continuing its decades long assault on the Kurds, destroying hundreds of villages and killing 10’s of thousands of Kurds whom they consider terrorists.  It will be interesting and possibly instructive how the BBC reports further such assaults on the Kurds, will they adopt a strictly neutral approach reporting the facts or will they become emotionally involved, … Continue reading →

  Quite extraordinary. You might think that Apple repatriating its huge overseas profits back to the USA and paying $38 billion in taxes, investing $350 billion over the next 5 years, employing an extra 20,000 and stating that Trump’s tax measures would increase employment and speed up the economy would make it onto the BBC news somewhere.  But no, the website is Apple free….oh hold on….there’s a new story about … Continue reading →

    Douglas Murray lays into C4s Cathy Newman for her inept interview with Jordan Peterson. Although it is C4 the interview is pretty much symptomatic of so many interviews in the BBC…and C4 is just as lefty biased as the BBC anyway….we just aren’t forced to pay for it. Newman comes with a preset agenda that bears little relationship to what Peterson says and she compounds that by not … Continue reading →

  Laughed this morning as Sarah Montague got slapped down as she talked about French/British security relations. Apparently Brexit is damaging as a whole and it is inevitable that it will bring problems for our relationship with France and damage our security. The French spokeman said no, not true, you have to consider the facts and that it is not the relationship with the EU that is important but the … Continue reading →

  This retweet from Sopel pretty much sums up his and the BBC’s world view….as usual Sopel picks one that is about him….most of his tweets seem to be about him and his love affair with The Donald…. Have read three amazing books so far this year. How to Stop Brexit @nick_clegg (insightful and hopeful), If only they didn’t speak English @BBCJonSopel (insightful and funny) and Collusion @lukeharding1968 (insightful and … Continue reading →
