  The BBC always insists that controversial views be heard, well, controversial anti-establishment, anti-British views be heard.  If you’re an IRA terrorist you’re welcome, if you’re a Muslim terrorist you’re in, if you’re a Muslim radical preacher you’re in, if you’re someone like Anjem Choudary you’re praised as the next Ghandi, Mandela or Churchill.  If you’re white, working class, Christian and opposed to Islamic extremism you are ‘polluting’ the public’s … Continue reading →

How different yesterday when the latest PMI figures [53.3] were released showing that ‘the month-on-month increase in the PMI level … Continue reading →

The BBC eventually decided to (albeit briefly) report on this story this morning. The British public want to ban Muslim women from wearing the Islamic veil or burqa by an overwhelming margin of more than two-to-one, a poll has found. Research by YouGov found a huge proportion of the public had no qualms about telling women what to wear, with 57 per cent in favour of a ban and just 25 per … Continue reading →

I’m on Talk Radio tomorrow morning just after 9am chatting to Paul Ross about this item. People who only watch BBC shows on catchup will be legally required to have a TV licence from 1 September, when new legislation to close the so-called “iPlayer loophole” comes into force. Though the vast majority of households own a TV licence, those without one who only watch catch-up content and not live broadcasts were technically … Continue reading →
