Here you go, a new Open Thread for the weekend. This is where you detail the bias!

  Just a few weeks ago the BBC was trumpeting the then latest PMI figures that had dipped below 50 and in the BBC’s interpretation this definitely showed we were heading for recession due to Brexit.  This ‘news’ was constantly and loudly broadcast on the day the figures were released. 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 →

Here you go, a new Ban Holiday approved Open Thread to start the week! Over to you….

  When the Law finally caught up with Anjem Choudary and after a decade of giving him prime-time platforms to spout his rhetoric with Mark Easton comparing him to Ghandi, Mandela and Churchill the BBC have decided that…. ‘It wasn’t a game. The evidence now shows that Anjem Choudary is one of the most dangerous men in Britain. Not a bomb-maker. Not a facilitator. But an ideologue, a thinker, who … Continue reading →
