Remember this from 2011 when Richard Black tried to persuade us that it was the dumb, ignorant Anglo-Saxons who were climate deniers while the rest of the world wailed as it burned? The world wide web, where climate change is most vociferously debated, is predominantly an Anglo-Saxon medium. For we native English speakers who’ve never needed to become fluent in other tongues but speak the language of climate … Continue reading
The Media’s hypocrisy is quite stunning, the BBC’s most of all of course as it tells us it holds itself to a higher standard and is the news organisation that sets the standards for the rest of the pack to follow. Recently they have been shouting a lot about how dishonest politicians are, asking why politicians, especially the Tories, won’t tell us about the true state of the … Continue reading
The BBC rushed to tell us…… World on course for warmest year The UK Met Office says the observed temperatures would be highly unlikely without the influence of greenhouse gases produced by humans. “There is no standstill in global warming.” Not sure the ‘Central England Temperature Anomaly’ can be describes as ‘all of the UK’ let alone ‘The World’….but let’s not be too critical…we’ll leave that to Christopher Booker: … Continue reading
Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past Britain’s winter ends tomorrow with further indications of a striking environmental change: snow is starting to disappear from our lives. “Children just aren’t going to know what snow is.” The BBC is always busy looking for ‘proof’ of global warming….here they are in Oz in July…. Artificial snow on slopes of hotter Australia Australia is sometimes … Continue reading
Funny old world when a man who expressed so much contempt for the Westminster ‘gang’ as he calls them, now seeks to rejoin as an MP despite, apparently, the fact that the “writing is on the wall for Westminster”.….what’s more curious is that the BBC don’t seem to notice this hypocrisy in their grand analysis…nor do they notice that when the Slippery Salmond says: “We won’t have any deal … Continue reading
Alright folks, the weekend beckons and time for a fresh one of these Open Threads. Enjoy and detail the bias!
Apologies, no time to do this justice but here’s some rough workings to get your teeth into…. Labour’s spending as a proportion of GDP in 1998? 36% The Coalition’s projected spending in 2019-20? 35.2% Hardly an enormous difference and yet apparently ‘utterly terrifying’ according to the BBC. There is an election coming and the BBC has been running a campaign to disparage everything the government does. The … Continue reading
Danny Cohen tells us that the BBC is an intrinsic part of the democratic process…I think it could be argued that it is the opposite and indeed encourages and supports terrorists and race hustlers who are intent on creating racial and religious conflict where they can for their own political purposes. The BBC gave blanket coverage to the killing in Ferguson of a black thug by a white … Continue reading
The BBC is an undemocratic, rampaging beast that is pretty much unaccountable and has been given carte blanche to do as it pleases, politicians too afraid to make the necessary changes to it, preferring instead to tinker around the edges…..hence we get no real, meaningful change to the method of financing the BBC and more importantly we get no change to its highly politicised, left-wing world view of how … Continue reading
There were great expectations in the corridors of the BBC…George Osborne was going to announce the latest borrowing figures and the deficit would be rising, they just knew it!…’On Wednesday we get the Chancellor’s Autumn statement and it looks almost certain he will have to announce worse than expected figures for the deficit’ ….a damning verdict on the ‘Tory’ government and its economic policies…the deficit is ‘hanging around the … Continue reading
