Rough Injustice

    The BBC has been telling us all day of the rise in rough sleepers and Labour’s outraged reaction. What the BBC wasn’t telling us in its news bulletins was that 56.7% of rough sleepers are immigrants…. Total non-UK    4,201    56.7% Only right at the very bottom of its website report does it make any such admission about immigrants… Where nationalities were available, 43% were from the UK, and … Continue reading

Rotherham Rozzers didn’t bother

  So the police get all the blame for Rotherham? Yesterday, unfortunately can’t remember when, a BBC reporter admitted that he repeatedly heard tales that the Hussain family were involved in serious crimes but the police were ignoring them. So the police ignored these crimes….what exactly did the intrepid BBC reporter do to expose both the crimes and the police’s inaction?  Nothing obviously. This wasn’t just a matter of the … Continue reading

The Not So Damning Dame

  Dame Janet Smith spent three years investigating the BBC and Savile and then allowed what, half an hour or so for journalists to quiz her on her conclusions limiting each one to one question and a supplementary question?  Ridiculous as she strictly regulated what they asked and how long they had to ask it.  Surprised at the journalists who deferred to her and allowed her to get away with … Continue reading

Circling The Bandwagons

  On the 22nd of October 2015 the BBC published a report about Jeremy Hunt ‘misleading’ us about the figures for weekend deaths in hospitals. Strangely this story resurfaced today as the BBC once again delved into the  subject, and curiously it just happened to be Prime Minister’s Questions today with Jeremy Corbyn leading with the BBC’s claim and actually quoting the BBC’s ‘research’.  No questions at all about the … Continue reading

Tartan Terror Hijacks The BBC

  Lord Hall Hall is weak and foolish.  He surrendered without a fight to George Osborne over the licence fee and the over 75’s, he has surrendered the BBC’s reputation as a broadcaster that we can trust to deliver accurate and impartial news as it now acts as a conduit for Islamist propaganda, and let’s not talk about its climate change reporting, and now he has surrendered to the tyranny … Continue reading

The Clash……Should We stay or should We go?

        David Dimbleby front’s the BBC’s EU coverage and will lead a debate to be held at Wembley Arena just two days before the referendum. This is pure showbiz from the BBC….there’s absolutely no need to hold such a major debate at such a massive venue and at such a dramatic time. The BBC’s description of the event is possibly more truthful than they intended to  let … Continue reading

Food for thought

  We had a look at the BBC’s ‘the Food Programme’ and its ideological, condescending and snobbish attitude towards fast food….so I thought this video from 2014 might be amusing….all the more amusing as I saw it on the BBC’s Emily Maitlis’ Twitter feed…..  

BBC’s Continental shelfishness

  From Julia Hartley-Brewer in the Telegraph…note the click poll at the end of the artcicle where 93% [at time of posting] think the BBC is biased against Eurosceptics……. The BBC thinks all Eurosceptics are frothing extremists. How can we trust it to be neutral? Our national broadcaster has already picked a side in the EU referendum – and it doesn’t even realise its own bias Forgive them, for they … Continue reading
