As we’ve looked at before the BBC claimed…. Weather records: December was ‘wettest month for UK’ and trumpeted that loudly even though the Met. Office stated that… For the UK as a whole its currently the second wettest on record.   Just been looking at the rainfall totals for December for England and Wales. You know what…not a record, not a record by a long, long chalk. In December we … Continue reading →

Wonder if anyone saw BBC “The Big Questions’ this morning? It was certainly explosive with left wing feminist rent-a-mouth harpy Kate Smurfwaite talking over everyone. However the BEST bit was when fellow leftist “Professor” Connie St Louis accused Milo Yiannopoulos of calling for the “assassination” of someone on his Twitter account. See Milo’s excellent response below. This is going to cost her.

OK folks, I’ve been away for a few days but am now back so let’s START the week early! Here you go detail the bias here!

    Time flies I’m afraid and we’ve been caught out again with the open thread..so here’s another one to tide you over till we get back on track…..

  The BBC has a bit of a quandary…..reporting the success of non-private school pupils in getting into Oxbridge or hiding that because the pupils come from a Free School and from a poor area of London thus undermining two of the BBC’s cherished mantras about the hated Free Schools and poverty…..both apparently anathemas to success in education. A few days ago I heard Peter Allen claim that the school … Continue reading →

      When we had the floods recently the BBC made a big play about the supposed North-South divide in funding channelling a Labour Party narrative but not telling us that the person making the claim was in fact a Labour council leader. [Similarly the BBC doesn’t tell us that the PCC’s who complain about cuts to police funding are also Labour party politicians.] The BBC seems to like … Continue reading →

    The BBC has been blitzing us recently with tales of woe…A&E is swamped by ever increasing numbers, housing is massively in short demand and schools can’t provide anywhere near enough places for the numbers of pupils. Why has this situation arisen?  The BBC doesn’t know but of course is happy to speculate that it is due to the government not spending enough money…due to austerity measures [and of … Continue reading →

  We’ve got another one of those BBC ‘mysteries’….the sort of mystery that is only a mystery to the BBC because it wants to raise some issues that otherwise it couldn’t…because they are not really ‘issues’ at all.   Belgium is apparently an apartheid state.  Who’d have guessed? Muslims, for naturally it is they, are discriminated against, marginalised and shoved unceremoniously into ghettoes by the racist Belgiques. I know this … Continue reading →

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ks6iLVlUiNY     I know some MPs think we should have ‘Jerusalem’ as the national anthem but actually bringing Jerusalem to the UK?… Woman ‘tries to stab 15-year-old with kitchen knife on London bus’ Or as the BBC puts it…… Grandmother disarms teenager’s Lambeth bus knife attacker A curious and convoluted title as the BBC manages to mention the grandmother, the teenager attacked but not the actual attacker’s identity…If it … Continue reading →

    Our reporting should resist the temptation to use language and tone which appear to accept consensus or received wisdom as fact or self-evident. We must challenge our own assumptions and experiences and also those which may be commonly held by parts of our audience. These can present some of the most difficult challenges to asserting that the BBC does not hold its own opinion.  Care should be taken … Continue reading →
