As 50 people lie dead in Orlando, killed by a Muslim with alleged links to Islamic State, the truth gets buried even before they do. The BBC has already moved into damage limitation mode and has told us that the killer was ‘mentally unstable’ and not religious…quoting liberally from the Washington Post.  Curiously the BBC missed this from the same article…. A friend of Mateen’s said the young … Continue reading →

    From Nick Cohen in Standpoint: Shame On The Liberals Who Rationalise Terror Every step you take explaining radical Islam away is apparently rational and liberal. Each takes you further from rationalism and liberalism. In your determination to see the other side’s point of view and to avoid making it “really angry about this or that”, you end up altering your behaviour so much that you can no longer … Continue reading →

  Apparently we should applaud the BBC for its openness and transparency as it ‘reported’ the fact that some ‘Syrian’ immigrants had been arrested (22 mins) and charged with raping a 14 year old girl in Newcastle. Well done the BBC. One of the ‘Syrians’ was, unfortunately for the BBC, a member of a family that the BBC was following after they were brought to the UK by the government … Continue reading →

      Thanks to Pounce for the video which shows a Muslim cleric stating that the sentence for homosexuality is death….he says it is the compassionate thing to do…to ‘get rid of them’.  Will the BBC be exploring the issue of how homosexuality is treated under Islam?  Christianity doesn’t approve of homosexuality but it doesn’t say ‘kill them’….whereas Islam does…the only question is, according to a well respected, moderate … Continue reading →

    Yet another laughable BBC ‘Reality check’. Labour are panicking and we heard that Labour voters are at odds with the ‘Hampstead intellectuals’ who lead the party….the voters are very concerned about immigration. Odd that this BBC web report, the ‘Reality check’, doesn’t mention immigration which is central to those voters’ concerns and indeed seems to have scrubbed any mention of it from the records as it reports John … Continue reading →

The EU benefits from being one of the most open economies in the world and remains committed to free trade. Over the next ten to 15 years, 90% of world demand will be generated outside Europe. That is why it is a key priority for the EU to tap into this growth potential by opening up market opportunities for European businesses abroad. One way of ensuring this is through negotiating … Continue reading →

Here you go, a new OPEN thread to see us off into the wide blue yonder of the weekend.

    From BBC Watch: In conclusion, with the exception of a vague and tardy mention of mortar and shooting attacks on the Gaza Strip border, the BBC News website did not report any of the terror attacks which took place during May. The corporation’s record of English language reporting of the missile attacks launched from the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the year remains at 0% and its … Continue reading →

    Have all those in the Remain camp converted to Islam?  Are they budding Muslims?  Do they kneel in submission and pray towards Mecca?  You might have thought so from the reverence that the BBC treats them with…nary a word agin them…Andrew Neil aside.  It has become apparent that a Remainer’s word is Gospel, or is that Koranic?, and is now taken as The Truth by default with the … Continue reading →

  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_FL4UjHmroE       Interesting to hear Laura Kuenssberg’s take on events as she reported on how the Remain campaign have targeted Boris as they see him as not only leader of the Leave campaign but also as next Tory leader….Kuenssberg says this claim, that Boris wants to be leader of the Tory Party, is out in the open after having been merely ‘vicious rumours’ before.  Just ‘vicious rumours’?  … Continue reading →
