You can’t keep a good man down. Blair is back. Curious that he thinks what he has to say is persuasive enough to make us rethink Brexit…..he admits staying in the Single Market in a ‘soft Brexit’ means Brexit is meaningless as we would be still essentially fully in the EU. He also admits that he didn’t hold the promised referendum on the EU because he would have lost … Continue reading
Amused to look back to when Major signed us up to Masstricht…exactly the same complaints were made then as he cemented us into the EU’s grip as now when we seek to loosen that punishing hold over us…how can that be?… That we would be isolated and disadvantaged without a voice. That we would lose influence and have no say in our own future. That the pound would fall … Continue reading
The BBC are overjoyed that John Major thinks Democracy somewhat over-rated. John Major, the man who thinks Democracy is a ‘Tyranny’, the man who is so ardently pro-EU that he wanted to keep us in the ruinous ERM even as it destroyed our economy, the man who, without consulting us, signed us up to Maastricht and handed us over to the unelected EU ‘dictatorship’, ironically quotes Churchill in a homage … Continue reading
I have to admit I am listening less and less to the BBC for the simple reason it is simply an echo chamber for sore loser Remainers. In the past few days it has been assiduously pumping out the anti-Brexit doom and gloom from the pro Remain OBR and IFS. It managed to shovel THREE Remain MPs on Question Time last night – and as for the South London audience…!!! … Continue reading
I’m going to be on holidays from Monday 28th Nov returning Thursday 8th December and that means no blogging! However, I have set up all the necessary Open Threads which I know you all engage with very well. I would like to also invite those of you who want to open up on a particular issue to put together a short post on it and send it to the site … Continue reading
Here you go, a brand new Open Thread to see us all off into the weekend. Detail the bias here please!
Thomas Mair has been convicted and sentenced for killing Jo Cox. There are no excuses for what Mair did, no ‘understanding’, no moral equivocation. But there is a stark contrast in how the BBC treats a Far-Right killer and a Muslim one as, with unfortunate timing for the BBC, which had just published a heart-warming story of a Muslim ‘victim’ of radicalisation, this BBC ‘report’ illustrates… “An extremist in … Continue reading
The new recruits to 5Live are stars…Emma Barnett and Nihal….the same old BBC groupthink mindset but on steroids. Hard to believe Barnett could be worse than Derbyshire but it looks like it. Today she was pretty certain that the fact the story of a serial killer who targeted gay men was not on the frontpage of every newspaper meant that the ‘wider Press’ [naturally not including the BBC] are … Continue reading
Biased BBC reader and writer David Sedgwick has an interesting post here that I commend to you. Give it a read and say hello to him please! “Well I finally did it, after months – nay years of prevarication – I’ve finally gone and dumped the BBC. And it feels good, very, very good. I can only describe the feeling as that of when, after years of giving second, third … Continue reading
A budget statement today and the BBC’s John Pienaar’s analysis?… There’s no good news…it’s a grim economic outlook….and we’re having to borrow £1oo billion because of Brexit. That’s all true except for the fact that it’s all baloney. Plenty of good news and far from a grim economic outlook the future is still bright with growth and no recession. Curious how the BBC doesn’t immediately go back and remind … Continue reading
