You may have heard the BBC making sensationalist and alarmist claims that NHS performance had ‘crashed’. No, no it hasn’t. It’s nothing more than a statistical distortion. Performance for treating patients in A&E have fallen below target…thus the BBC states the NHS has ‘crashed’. Funny sort of crash when in fact the NHS is treating more patients than ever. The problem is that there are more patients than ever … Continue reading
The BBC is always consistent….it doesn’t matter if it says one thing one day and the complete opposite the next or a combination of the two the day after, the narrative is the same, the message the same, the intent the same….to attack May and to attack Brexit. During the election May wanted to run with Brexit as her main vote winner but this never happened…it was the economy, … Continue reading
Normally the BBC is the very compliant mouthpiece for the EU, whatever anyone from the EU says is reported with reverence and respect….the statements given weight, credibility and authority by the BBC and treated as if the only possible and reasonable way of looking at things. Statements from the British government on the other hand are treated with contempt and disbelief. This changed, at least for a while, on … Continue reading
The BBC, Knights of the Long Knives. Very adept at political and character assassination or they try to be. Their heavy handed attacks on Trump and Farage failed miserably despite massive resources thrown at them, Tommy Robinson succumbed to the intense scrutiny and extremely hostile BBC reporting about him and quit the EDL but has since seen the light and bounced back. Andrea Leadsom might be added to … Continue reading

Time for a new one of these! Detail the unrelenting BIAS here!
Sofia Bettiza is a video journalist at the BBC. Here she is pictured with BBC Europe editor Katya Adler in Strasbourg. Before the referendum she exclaimed, “Britain, please don’t Vote Leave!”, and afterwards, she joined the group ‘Remain in the European Union – Exit from Brexit!’. Solid remainer, through and through. This didn’t stop her from being sent to work on Brexit related stories by the BBC. None of this … Continue reading
The governor of the Bank of England has to write a letter of explanation to the chancellor if the inflation rate is more than 1% either side of the 2% target. On Tuesday, Mr Carney told MPs on the Treasury Committee that “inflation rising potentially above the 3% level in the coming months is something we have anticipated.” UK inflation at highest since April 2012 If the Bank of England … Continue reading
Great shame…poor old Hillary couldn’t make it onto the fawning media circuit today as she had another fall….how would she have coped with the strains and stresses of being President? She seems completely unable to cope with defeat and the reality of who is to blame…one Hillary Clinton. The BBC has been glorifying her and promoting her as the great lost opportunity, the solution that a dangerous and uncertain … Continue reading
