I did an interview on the topic of BBC bias for the Sunday Guardian, a major newspaper in India which is not a left wing rag – unlike its UK daily namesake. Here is one line from it… Vance says ”Politicians are scared of the sheer monopolistic power of the BBC, it is not just an anachronism, it is menace”. I will link the entire article when published. No punches … Continue reading →

I saw this headline on the BBC today. Islamic State conflict: 10,000 militants killed in nine months – US Islamic State is a TERRORIST organisation. It seeks to impose its radical Islamist agenda by killing and maiming anyone that disagrees with it. It has burnt people alive. It decapitates. It machines guns. It terrorises to achieve its end. So WHY does the morally bankrupt BBC not call it for what … Continue reading →

Let me start by saying that like so many other people I was saddened to read of the death of former Lib Dem leader Charles Kennedy at such an early age. The loss to his family and friends will be immense. However, does anyone else find the BBC coverage of this excessive? Time after time in the past TWO days, I have turned on the various BBC channels to hear … Continue reading →

Middle of the week and time for a new one of these. Here is where you detail the bias.

      “One of the things I really like about the BBC is that it’s alive to its critics. It listens. And, as importantly, we are self-critical.”   James Harding, Director of News and Current Affairs   James Harding has made a resignation speech, or rather if the contents of the speech are a true reflection of what he actually thinks then he should perhaps consider it a resignation … Continue reading →

The BBC is very selective in how it treats Christians. If they are arguing for “gay marriage’ – the BBC sees them as heroes. And now, if they are demanding that God be called “she” as much as “he’ then the BBC rallies around the cause. The fact that Christ starts the prayer he taught his disciples as “Our Father who art in heaven…” seems a slight detail. I like … Continue reading →

Of course the BBC will sometimes run with the Conservative narrative if it happens to synch with the BBC’s visceral contempt for private industry. Today they are merrily spinning this story… The government has announced measures to clamp down on “rip-off” staffing agencies used by the NHS to plug gaps in nursing and doctor rotas. It will set a maximum hourly rate for temps and cap the amount trusts that are … Continue reading →

No sooner had Cameron announced his intention to double free provision for three and four-year-olds in England than the BBC ran this angle on it.. “Childcare changes threatened by underfunding, providers say” I suppose with Labour in its death throes the BBC feels an obligation  to use its multi-billion pound media soapbox (extorted from the License payer) to attack the Conservatives but I don’t see why I should fund this outrageous … Continue reading →

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyZGzIGWJDA     ‘Under the Conservative and then Labour governments, radical preachers toured Britain trying to rally and isolate Muslim youth. They said that to be a Muslim you had to sympathise with your Muslim ‘brothers’ anywhere in the world. What you should not do was to feel any of that gratitude or desire to assimilate which had existed in their parents’ generation. Everywhere, this madness was allowed … Continue reading →

Sorry about the delay but here is a fresh Open Thread for you to complete.
