May Day

  Theresa May said some sensible, measured and balanced things about immigration. The world went mad.  And the BBC gave the world a helping hand. John Pienaar and Co told us that May used a tough tone, a hard, uncompromising message, she was deliberately setting out to polarise opinion.  Really?  Wasn’t she just saying the absolute truth about uncontrolled mass immigration, a truth that most people in this country understand?  … Continue reading

The BBC…Still in denial about Savile and all that?

  Tonight Panorama broadcasts this: The VIP Paedophile Ring: What’s the Truth? What’s the truth?  Good question.  Will Panorama provide the answer?…We know that the BBC grandees have been panicking about this Panorama programme lest it bring into question the BBC’s own reporting of ‘Nick’ and his allegations….and judging by this trailing article for the programme by Ceri Thomas I have my doubts….search for ‘BBC’ and you’ll get one reference … Continue reading

Start the week open thread

  Time for a fresh open thread……a Tory conference in full swing, mass Muslim immigration, a war in the Middle East with the Turks and Russians curiously bombing everyone except the one target they should be hitting…the Islamic State, Europe in turmoil and Peston’s hair….the BBC newsroom must be working full-steam ahead, all hands to the pumps, to keep up with all that and shape it into a narrative that … Continue reading

Bye Bye Bias?

    John Whittingdale confirms that the BBC is to lose its power to judge whether the BBC is biased.  Good.  About time. From the Guardian: John Whittingdale, the UK culture secretary, has confirmed that the BBC will be stripped of its power to adjudicate on allegations of political bias in its coverage.  Speaking at the Conservative party conference in Manchester, he said the public should have confidence that complaints … Continue reading

Racist ‘Britain’

“Europe You’ll Come Crawling When Mujahedeen Come Roaring”   The BBC is indulging in a very dangerous and dishonest attack on British society and in particular white British people, pushing the narrative that they are all racist based purely on the fact that they are white and that other races, and the BBC inlcudes Islam as a race for some reason, are always victims of white peoples’ prejudice thus sowing … Continue reading

New Labour…Old Danger

  Interesting to see someone thinks as I do about New Labour.  I constantly hear on the BBC and elsewhere that Blair and Co were right-wing whilst I was always of the opinion that Blair was in fact extremely left-wing and smashed those left-wing  policies into the British Establishment, culture and society…yes he cosied up to the banks but even Lenin told us that Capitalism was a necessary part of … Continue reading

Subscription or Conscription?

  The BBC has always opposed a change to the licence fee funding model on the grounds that subscription would be technically too difficult and would cost too much…..not to mention of course that the licence fee is easy money at the moment and a guaranteed source of income regardless of what they produce and who watches. On the other hand it has decided that it is technically feasible and … Continue reading

Bleeding Heart Sunday

  The BBC’s ‘Sunday’ carries on as usual with its unusual world view that is at so odds with everyday folk. We had a piece on the pages of the Koran found at Birmingham University.  The BBC did ask some very awkward questions for Muslims that these Koran pages raise…such as the carbon dating may show that this Koran may show that ‘Islam’ may have been in existence before Muhammed, … Continue reading

Chopperboy…..Victim of an uncaring society

  The BBC was sure that Clockboy was the victim of  injustice, prejudice and misperceptions perpetrated by a society that has been polluted by an Islamophobic narrative driven by the right-wing press.  It seems that ‘Chopperboy’ in the UK may also be a victim of similar prejudice, his threats to behead and murder so many people merely an articulation of his rage against a society that doesn’t value or accept  … Continue reading
