Guardian Soulmates users targeted by Russia after data exposure Users of Guardian Soulmates have been targeted with sexually explicit emails in what is believed to be a Russian honeytrap ploy after their contact … Continue reading →

  Not going well is it?  The BBC’s ‘balanced’ reporting on the election that is.  Two days of anti-Tory messaging..the subtle and not so subtle…. Tory immigration pledge is trashed and never mentioned wthout the refrain that promises were made before and not met….funny, ironic, that the ‘open borders’ BBC, which campaigns relentlessly for more immigration, should be criticising the Tories for having failed to control it…one reason of course … Continue reading →

  The LibDems are up to their old tricks…saying one thing but doing another….and the BBC is claiming the credit for revealing one story… In a recording from a question-and-answer session obtained by the BBC, Sir Vince, who is the party’s candidate in the Twickenham seat he lost in 2015, said he had a good relationship with people from other parties, adding: “I particularly met a lot of people on … Continue reading →

  Christopher Booker on the latest Arctic scare: Inevitably, when even satellite temperatures were showing 2016 as “the hottest year on record”, we were going to be told last winter that the Arctic ice was at its lowest extent ever. Sure enough, before Christmas, a report from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration was greeted with such headlines as “Hottest Arctic on record triggers massive ice melt”. In March … Continue reading →

  From ‘Notalotofpeopleknowthat’…. BBC’s Silly Anthrax Scare Story The BBC have gone right over the top now, with this latest silly little scare story: ‘Throughout history, humans have existed side-by-side with bacteria and viruses. From the bubonic plague to smallpox, we have evolved to resist them, and in response they have developed new ways of infecting us. However, what would happen if we were suddenly exposed to deadly bacteria and viruses … Continue reading →

  ‘One hundred rusty, dilapidated boats leave India crammed with starving would-be immigrants. Indians, like so many other third-world citizens, are desperate and bitter about their lives. The first worlders know the boats are en route to France, yet they make little effort to prevent the ships from landing. The liberal press, churches and students have helped instill a sense of guilt. The people don’t have the will to defend … Continue reading →

New week, new thread! Here is where you detail the bias!

  Le Pen has lost and Macron is President, and the BBC is very happy….a pro-EU Hollande placeman has taken office…the BBC portrays him as centrist but he is leftist, and the BBC say he was an outsider…and yet he had been at the centre of Hollande’s government and had a war chest of over £80 million…not bad for an outsider….just where did that come from?  He says he wants … Continue reading →

  On Saturday the BBC was expressing great concern about sexual harassment at Music festivals….were the organisers doing enough to stop it?…maybe there should be women only areas…let’s have some zero tolerance. Contrast that with the BBC’s extensive efforts to playdown the mass, organised attacks in Cologne and the rising proliferation of sexual assaults across Europe and to hide who the culprits were…just as they failed to report what was … Continue reading →

  Fake news in the Guardian?  Curiously, despite the BBC’s rabid interest in exposing ‘fake news’ it seems not to be so concerned here….. though Robinson is given a voice, he is essentially shouted down and dismissed by the other three…including Neil at the end. Tommy Robinson was accused of being a white supremacist by the Quilliam Foundation…in the Guardian… That the far right has moved from the fringe into … Continue reading →
