How soon the BBC forgets… Execution of a teenage girl On 15 August, 2004, Atefah Sahaaleh was hanged in a public square in the Iranian city of Neka. Her death sentence was imposed for “crimes against chastity”. The state-run newspaper accused her of adultery and described her as 22 years old. But she was not married – and she was just 16. In a town like Neka, … Continue reading →

  The BBC are very concerned about the welfare of three Muslim girls heading off for a spot of Jihad.  You just wonder how sympathetically concerned would the BBC be if they were heading off to join, ooh say, a ‘Fascist State’ war machine in central Europe. Actually we might have the answer as yesterday I heard one BBC presenter (was it Campbell?) suggest that going off to join ISIS … Continue reading →

  Things you wish you’d never asked. Mishal Husain on the Today programme took a direct hit this morning that seemed to put her completely off her stroke. Husain was interviewing Sir John Sawers, ex head of MI6. (08:36) She asked him a question about radicalisation… There’s a lot been said about how people are radicalised and we hear a lot about the internet.  A lot less is heard about … Continue reading →

    “In a very few years, perhaps in a very few months, we shall be confronted with demands with which we shall no doubt be invited to comply. Those demands may affect the surrender of territory or the surrender of liberty. I foresee and foretell that the policy of submission will carry with it restrictions upon the freedom of speech and debate in Parliament, on public platforms, and discussions … Continue reading →

Well then, the BBC is a curious one. Firstly it names the Islamic State decapitator-in-Chief, Mohammed Emwazi. Fair enough. It then proceeds to ponder is he really a victim of a bungling MI5. It also calls him a “militant” when he is by any definition a terrorist – cutting the heads off innocent people IS terrorism, dear BBC. The BBC have taken the same approach with the three teenage Jihadi … Continue reading →

It’s Friday and time for a new Open Thread to take us off into the weekend. Here is where you detail the bias! Over to you….

     Net foreign immigration is 352,000.   The borders remain open to one and all and the massed hordes of immigrants are still ‘flocking’ to Britain. The BBC told us today that immigration made the economy successful and it is this economic success that brings the immigrants. I’m certain you could all pick holes in the BBC’s pro-immigration propaganda.   Net immigration is stated as 298,000. But that doesn’t … Continue reading →

    Culture, Media and Sport – Fourth Report Future of the BBC     No long-term future for BBC licence fee, MPs say   The TV licence does not have a long-term future and is likely to be replaced by a new levy within the next 15 years, a group of MPs has said. The fee is “becoming harder and harder to justify” given changes in the media, according to the House of … Continue reading →

    You have to understand what the root cause of radicalisation is in the Muslim community. Here’s the maths…. British Society is increasingly intolerant of Islam, that intolerance is being fostered by a sensationalist media that fuels prejudice, the intolerance and attacks on Muslims leads them to become angry, alienated and marginalised,  under such a siege they understandably feel the need to fight back and defend their prophet and … Continue reading →

Ok, here you go, middle of the week and a new one of these. Hope you enjoyed the BBC pushing out loads of pro-muslim PR this morning. It seems that “only” 27% of UK muslims support Jihadi butchers. That’s around 700,000 by my calculation. Over to you…
