One of the occasional off-route adventures we leaven the blog with…. here’s something to distract from the present black days in Turkey:

    As with the axe attack in Germany the BBC is holding back on reporting eye-witness claims that the attacker shouted ‘Allah Akbar’….apparently, despite reports that ISIS have claimed the attack as one of theirs, the motive is still unclear. Remarkable how the BBC can hold back essential elements of a story…the Mail brings us the reality: ‘Boom boom boom – he’s killing the kids’: Iranian gunman, 18, shouting … Continue reading →

  The BBC is absolutely determined to blame all the ills of the world upon the Brexit vote. Today it descends to the gutter with a highly misleading claim in this report in which even the heading is politicised linking all hate crime to Brexit…. Hate crime ‘still far too high’ post-Brexit – police The opening paragraph is meant to deceive… More than 6,000 hate crimes have been reported to … Continue reading →

  Is Trump the only candidate for the Presidency?  Seems to be as Clinton rarely gets a mention on the BBC in comparison to Trump….Trump who is, according to Jim Naughtie, a joke, an idiot, and ego maniac…or possibly any number of other things which the BBC freely slanders him with such as he’s a crackpot, simplistic, phoney, a tragedy, a bar room blusterer…importantly though, serious, sensible and grown up … Continue reading →

From the Spectator… That Brexit apocalypse? It just isn’t happening   Mickey Clark on Wake up to Money this morning said that ‘People must be very confused.’ No, not the usual BBC snide dismissal of ‘The people’, the rather uneducated and stupid people who don’t do as they are told, but a comment on the fact that so far Brexit has not produced the much trumpeted meltdown…having said that the … Continue reading →

  Listening to Nicky Campbell’s ‘Your Call’ today….about Corbyn’s ‘leadership’. Amazed to hear that Corbyn is the ‘new politics’…..isn’t he kind of old hat, a disinterred commie who hasn’t realised his form of state sponsored bullying, intimidation and corruption doesn’t work…not even at the point of a gun (or bricks through windows)?  Strange that not one mention was made by Campbell of UKIP in response…the party that took 4 million … Continue reading →

      Chris Mason ‏@ChrisMasonBBC Jul 14 Twitter is a remarkably efficient way of making an idiot of yourself. Twitter’s not the only way….as the BBC’s political correspondent, Chris Mason, uses the back of an envelope to draw up his reports…… Chris Mason put on the spot today as Peter Allen asks him about a hot topic currently hitting the headlines (31 mins)…… Peter Allen:  ‘I’m just reading something, … Continue reading →

    Rarely does the BBC let a day go by without a mention of Boris’ ‘racist’ comment about Obama, his Kenyan heritage and Britain’s ‘special relationship’…never mind that Boris was actually referencing this Guardian article as the BBC knows full well….Could Obama’s dual colonial heritage spell the end of the special relationship? The constant drip drip drip of comments labelling Boris as racist by the BBC’s finest naturally have … Continue reading →

  Sarah Brett on 5Live talking about the NHS (31 mins)…her personal experience: ‘I know that it is incredibly frustrating when a family member is in hospital, particularly over a weekend when you think nothing is being done until Monday morning starts again…it happened to me very recently…’ Better have a 7 day service then….let’s talk about it…..or we could talk about BBC bias….floor’s yours….    

  Front page BBC news and headlining on the bulletins all day….Trump’s missus makes speech that has definite echoes of one made by Obama’s missus. I’m sure it is earth shattering and indicative of something important…or not.  Obama’s verdict on his own plagiarism? [See below] I really don’t think this is too big of a deal. The BBC is always keen to point out when certain people make slip ups, … Continue reading →
