Dodgy Facts Haven…The BBC

Could this be why @jeremycorbyn raised tax avoidance at this week’s #PMQs ? Panama Papers 2 is this Sunday https://t.co/RUet76o9YN — Nick Robinson (@bbcnickrobinson) November 1, 2017 The BBC’s pension fund has shares in BP and Facebook….both companies deal with the Russians….Russia owns Facebook shares.  Does that ‘relationship’ mean the BBC is in hock to the Kremlin?  Has the BBC been funding Russian sponsored ‘fake news’ via Facebook?….LOL…and of course … Continue reading

Elizabeth II is a tyrant

The Paradise Papers show that about £10m ($13m) of the Queen’s private money was invested offshore. It was put into funds in the Cayman Islands and Bermuda by the Duchy of Lancaster, which provides the Queen with an income and handles investments for her £500m private estate. I applaud the BBC for putting this not only as the top story, but as a full page spread on the BBC News … Continue reading

There’ll be Roubles ahead…Russia Today and BBC Today…spot the difference

  .@BallySingh74 You really think that there is no difference between Russia Today propaganda & BBC?! Wonder how many Russians would agree? — Nick Robinson (@bbcnickrobinson) March 2, 2014     The BBC is a state controlled broadcaster…the question is controlled by which state?  The BBC clearly does all it can to undermine the British state, its power and influence and works assiduously against British interests.  Who benefts from all … Continue reading

Tez Silyas….a Poppy Cock

  People can say what they like on stage, but what annoys me is that when comics talk about religion, the writing is often lazy and not very intelligent. Worst of all, it’s not very funny.  Tez Ilyas Well yes….shame he doesn’t actually listen to his own advice…..read on about the good Muslim Tez Ilyas.     Tez Ilyas, an Asian Muslim comic that the BBC has groomed and radicalised….what … Continue reading

Last shall be first

  Katz is off and Guido lists a speculative run down of runners and riders for his job…..the last on the list is George Osborne. Anyone have the feeling that it is not beyond the realms of possibility and parody that Osborne gets offered the job  by a shameless and desperate anti-Brexit BBC? Trump in the White House, Corbyn closing in on No10….who can say it will never happen?  After … Continue reading

Trump must fall!!!

  The BBC still bashing Trump….yesterday Today wheeled in an Obama official to get her opinion on Trump [08:40]… At least eight people have been killed and 11 seriously hurt in New York after the driver of a truck mowed down people on a cycle path in Lower Manhattan. Juliette Kayyem is former US assistant secretary of Homeland Security. John Humphrys asked her what she thought of Trump’s reaction to … Continue reading

Open Thread Friday

  Mishal Husain called the Israeli ‘Wall’ a ‘security barrier’ [08:35] and accused Palestinians of killing Israeli civilians….men, women and children…..shocked outrage from the Palestinian being interviewed.  Maybe if the BBC had adopted such a more two-sided and balanced approach in all its reporting about Israel the peace might have been given more of a chance as the Palestinians weren’t given licence to attack the Israeli ‘oppressors’…so long so labelled … Continue reading

‘This is my country, too’

  Whilst the BBC doesn’t like to report anything that might indicate a terror attack was Islamic in nature, avoiding eye-witness reports and other news sources’ informed speculation until forced to do so, it is happy to casually assert Brexit causes Islamophobia. This is my country, too This year has seen a spike in anti-Muslim hate crimes, and a new survey shows women are suffering the most – so what’s … Continue reading
