Back in 2010 the Mail ran this report about the man who is still Miliband’s head spin doctor, Tom Baldwin.  Baldwin originally worked for the Times where he was in essence a Labour Party stooge placing stories damaging to the Tories and beneficial to Labour. Considering Baldwin’s vital role in Labour’s election campaign and Miliband’s pious statements about the Telegraph and compromised journalism should the BBC be asking questions … Continue reading →

      Abridged from the Daily Telegraph:   This newspaper makes no apology for the way in which it has covered the HSBC group and the allegations of wrongdoing by its Swiss subsidiary, allegations that have been so enthusiastically promoted by the BBC, the Guardian and their ideological soulmates in the Labour Party. We have covered this matter as we do all others, according to our editorial judgment and … Continue reading →

    Frankie Boyle isn’t impressed with the Guardian’s commercial interests  (H/T  Guess Who)….of course the personalised adverts within the text are shaped   to your own activities on the web….block the advertisers with ‘Ghostery’ and they don’t come up…The Guardian has a vast number of commercial ‘trackers’ that watch your every move…so much for its war on the ‘spy’s’…..commercial interests trump such principles…..looks like Boyle likes Heineken…     … Continue reading →

  “As independent as resources permit”     The BBC is going all out on the Telegraph/Oborne story and remarkably shows no interest at all in widening its investigation to explore the likelihood of similar practises at other news organisations. A familiar pattern of behaviour from the BBC which you may remember from the time of the phone hacking saga when the sole target was Murdoch and the BBC was … Continue reading →

  All that fuss about news content being  driven or influenced by sponsors eh.  Shocking revelations of shady dealings at the Telegraph by Oborne. At least the Guardian is open about it….much of its news output is paid and bought for by its sponsors…..not just an advertiser withdrawing its account if it didn’t like one story but massive news coverage on world events brought to you courtesy of outside money … Continue reading →

  The BBC approach to reporting on immigration has been to not report on immigration, or at least to brush the concerns about any problems that immigration may bring aside.  They do this out of a fear that any indication that immigration is not all rainbows and cupcakes will open the door to the army of jackbooted fascists that are just waiting in the shadows for any chance to take … Continue reading →

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBi_hDhR7GQ     The BBC has a disturbing habit of using spokesmen for Islam and Islamic issues whom anyone who had done a bit of research might think twice about using….Mo Ansar,  Moazzam Begg and anyone from MPACUK come immediately to mind…..not to mention the MCB. Here for example is how the BBC referred to Sheikh Haitham Al Haddad in 2010…. There is some difference of opinion among Muslim scholars … Continue reading →

      It’s that old ‘mindest’ thing again. The good Robert Fisk, where would we be without him?  The Independent doesn’t need a cartoonist with such a man who can paint a scathing comic picture with a mere 10,000 words. Fisk, you couldn’t make him up, and surprisingly he is real, a real, living, green ink splurging journalist, he’s not some comic character dreamt up by Private Eye to … Continue reading →

  Labour’s Margaret Hodge laid about the head of the HMRC for having lost track of an email from the supposed HSBC whistleblower in which he claimed to have information on tax evasion that HMRC might be interested in. He also sent one to other governments and intelligence agencies and our own Foreign Office, in fact to the private office of our very own Foreign Secretary, who was at the … Continue reading →

  When you read this the most important thing that you have to know is that Oborne is a supporter of Miliband and is anti-Murdoch and the right-wing press.  Only days ago he wrote a glowing panegyric on behalf of the leader of the Opposition claiming he has led the political debate…whereas in fact Miliband has hidden in a left wing comfort zone pandering to his 35% with announcements that … Continue reading →
