The Man Who Shocked The Liberal Consensus

  The Government has acknowledged the importance of “soft power” in global politics with an unprecedented £85m investment in the BBC World Service to support initiatives in Russia, North Korea, the Middle East and Africa. ‘When the legend becomes fact print the legend’.  Obama is certainly doing that with Trump and his Russian ‘backers’.  Obama  leaves Office doing his utmost to damage Trump whilst he has the opportunity.  He is … Continue reading

Open Thread Friday

Time for another one of these….any bias about?  Perhaps some careless talk?…such as Emma Barnett talking of ‘IRA soldiers’ giving the murderous terrorists a massive amount of undue respect that the BBC never affords to British soldiers whom they hound at every opportunity….Barnett, as she rejected claims that there was a witch-hunt against British troops in NI, never once mentioning Phil Shiner’s fall and the false claims he made that … Continue reading

Wrong side of history

  Historian Niall Ferguson has already seen the light with Trump and after lambasting him for months now recognises he may just be the man for the job…but there’s more….Niall has had a double-double-take you might say and is now a fan of Brexit after similarly having spent months attacking it. Let’s get down to brass tacks and the essence of his message…one that the BBC needs to read and … Continue reading

Splitters

  LOL Corbyn’s hi-jacking of the Labour Party in concert with his Marxist chums was one of the political bombshells of the last year…..his vehicle of choice was ‘Momentum’ which the BBC admits played a crucial role in getting Corbyn elected leader…now Momentum is being hi-jacked  by the hardcore Trots.  A fairly big, and amusing, story you’d have thought.  The BBC begs to differ and hides it away on the … Continue reading

BBC Fake News….Maligning British Troops

  Lawyer Phil Shiner has had his come-uppance and lost all credibility for his witch-hunt against British troops…. One allegation concerned his claims at a press conference in February 2008, when he said British troops had killed and tortured Iraqi civilians at the 2004 so-called “Battle of Danny Boy”, in southern Iraq. The tribunal heard Mr Shiner accepted he acted recklessly in saying Iraqis were taken alive and later murdered … Continue reading

More Guardian Fake News From The ‘Pre-Fact’ Age

  Remember this?… Guardian: Our Israeli Organ Harvesting Headline Was Serious Error Curiously the Guardian seems uninterested in this recent story reported by the BBC, which the BBC itself has ‘vanished’ from the news pages now…. Egypt arrests ‘organ trafficking ring’ Not a sign of it on the Guardian pages.  Bet if it had been Israel instead of Egypt the Guardian, and BBC, would have been running endless stories and … Continue reading

True Facts…Who Wants That?

  The Left have been creating a whole new narrative about ‘truth’ suddenly becoming a rare commodity…the results of the US election and Brexit both being the fault of foolish and ill-informed voters who made their decisions based upon lies fed to them by Trump and Boris….therefore both results are illegitimate. Odd then that when Boris tells the plain truth the Left jump on him, even odder because he speaks … Continue reading

Brexit for BBC journalists…simple and clear

  Evan Davis agrees with Oliver Letwin….the government does have a Brexit plan and it’s very clear and simple…     In which case why do BBC presenters and journalists keep insisting in mocking tones that the government has no plan?  The same line that Labour peddles of course. The plan is simple….to carry out the instruction of the British People and leave the EU…the first issue is to stop … Continue reading

Brexit means Brexit….and it’s the Peoples’ decision

  “The British people will have the final and decisive say. “ The Minister for Europe, David Lidington, and Minister for Constitutional Reform, John Penrose December 2015   In the referendum debate in June 2015 Phillip Hammond said this… Few subjects ignite as much passion in the House or indeed in the country as our membership of the European Union. The debate in the run-up to the referendum will be … Continue reading

Glasshouses

  You may have heard the BBC’s expressions of horror about the Mail having the temerity to outline the Supreme Court Judges’ history on the EU…something you might think relevant and of interest to anyone who is following the case.  The BBC thinks this undermines the Judges’ independence and threatens democracy and the rule of law. Never mind that just about every other paper and publication has done similar examinations … Continue reading
