Two of the BBC’s most important, powerful, influential and dangerous narratives are undermined by…the BBC. The BBC has an orthodox narrative that the ‘institution’ follows on many subjects.  The presenters all casually assert the truth of that narrative and promote it without thought or insight, undoubtedly much of it handed to them from whatever central resource provides the material for their programmes….backed up by the presenter’s own prejudices and … Continue reading →

  Nought to do with BBC bias…..just some good clean fun at the pro-EU Mr Parris’ expense. Matthew Parris, a sort of Mandelson lite, was sent in by No10 to do their dirty work and pen a poison letter about Brexit leader Boris….or as Rod Liddle calls it…an eloquent hissy fit …..I suppose we should listen to Parris as he is obviously a genius who at the tender age of … Continue reading →

    Will Panorama be exposing the family dirty secrets?….. Tax Havens of the Rich and Powerful Exposed The rich and powerful have hidden billions of dollars in tax havens. They thought their financial secrets were safe, but now a huge leak of documents has revealed a world of secrecy, lies and crimes. Reporter Richard Bilton exposes tax dodgers, criminals and world leaders who have been hiding their money and … Continue reading →

A heart-warming story of BBC wanton indulgence, at our expense. “The BBC blew thousands of pounds on a holiday for actress Sophie Okonedo and her boyfriend, it has been revealed. The broadcaster used licence fee payers’ money to pay for a pair of business class flights, so that they could go whale-watching and wine tasting in South Africa’s Cape Town.” How delightful for them.

Here you go! A brand new thread to start another week of BBC bias! Detail it here!

  A world of hidden wealth: why we [The Guardian] are shining a light offshore Though there is nothing unlawful about using offshore companies, the files raise fundamental questions about the ethics of such tax havens. Since the 2008 crash, there has been a clamour for everyone to pay a fair share of the tax burden. Unsurprisingly, the public is questioning – perhaps more than ever – whether a system … Continue reading →

    The BBC always wondered out loud, mainly in the context of the Coalition government must be failing appallingly and yet unemployment keeps falling!!???!!, about the apparent puzzles of ever rising employment and the apparent lack of productivity. The BBC never bothered to go out and just ask the businesses why they were employing people, that would be too easy.  The BBC preferred to speculate and tell us that … Continue reading →

Funny how the BBC seems to have overlooked the crucial role played by their former darling Ed Miliband in hiking UK energy costs to the point where making Steel here is fundamentally uneconomic. Still, they love making the hapless Conservatives look as bad as possible. Anyway, it’s Friday and time for a new one of these…

    The BBC that won’t tell you that a Sunni Muslim killed an Ahmadi Muslim in a religiously motivated attack, the BBC that so often won’t admit that Jihadists are primarily and genuinely motivated by religion and so often refuses to mention the word ‘Muslim’ in reports on terrorism, sorry, ‘militancy’, has now decided that it it will after all link Islam to the motivations of a Muslim…. Kenya … Continue reading →

SPIEGEL: You have suggested using weapons at the border. Petry: I would hope that you would know better than that! But I’ll happily explain one more time: In response to numerous questions, and after listing off various options for securing the border, I mentioned that the use of armed force in the case of an emergency is consistent with German law, a step which I personally, explicitly do not want. … Continue reading →
