Wonder what you make of this news? “The BBC’s political editor Nick Robinson is to step down from his role after 10 years. He will replace Jim Naughtie on the presenting team of BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. Robinson will also report and present across television and radio for BBC News and Current Affairs.” I’ll be glad to see the back of Naughtie, he identified so readily with the Left it was … Continue reading →

Well, seeing as how Labour weren’t up to much of a response to the Osborne Budget, the BBC obviously felt that they needed to step up to the challenge. All day they have been running the following attack line… Budget 2015: Squeeze to hit 13m families, says IFS And below the headline this.. Thirteen million UK families will lose £260 a year on average because of the Budget’s tax and … Continue reading →

Can we give it a rest, please? That’s a quote from a Mehdi Hasan article about conspiracy theories and why Muslims are so in thrall to them.  Which … Continue reading →

  For the BBC there seems to be no ‘why’ for 7/7. Or at least when listening to their coverage of the anniversary one thing is missing….the question asking what was the motivation for the attacks, why did 4 Muslims attack ‘The West’? The BBC looks even to have put aside its normal infantile, dangerous and highly politicised reason…the Iraq War….The BBC knows this is a false message, a deliberate … Continue reading →

The BBC has spent the last 5 years chastising the Coalition for its welfare reforms and in the run up to the election loudly demanded to know the details of the proposed £12 billion in savings from the welfare budget…and now we know, at least one bit….the BBC is going to pay a huge chunk of it itself!
