Jon Donnison has been shipped out of Gaza back to his new stomping ground in Oz.  Lucky them. Still, it hasn’t stopped him bothering us with his anti-Israel schmutter:         Donnison has many, many other fascinating insights about Gaza but oddly not much about Australia.   I won’t bore you with the complete run down but he also links to the other usual suspect, Kevin Connolly:   … Continue reading →

Hi everyone. Time for a new Open Thread to see us into the week. Please keep your comments on topic – BBC bias. Please keep your comments polite and do ensure that a  combination of civility, wit and perspicuity will ensure this remains THE premier site for detailing the appalling bias of the State Broadcaster. Clear? Off you go – the floor is yours!

    The BBC isn’t interested in Muslims attacking stores selling Jewish goods, and Muslims don’t seem too interested in ISIS’ atrocities……and the BBC isn’t interested in that lack of interest.     “We will not stay silent!” Whilst thousands protest about the Jews there seems a distinct lack of interest in genuine atrocities committed by Muslims….. From Harry’s Place: Yesterday’s anti-ISIS demonstration About 400 people attended yesterday’s demonstration against … Continue reading →

Why the media reaction to events matters when they whip up a storm: Jayson Ross, who was leading the protesters toward the police before tear gas was fired, was quoted as saying by AP: “They got guns. We got guns. We are ready.” Local politician Antonio French, who was with the protesters, tweeted to say: “Too many young men talking about they’re ready to die tonight.”     H/T  TPO … Continue reading →

As many have noted in the comments the BBC, at least on the web,  has completely ignored the ransacking of a Tescos store by mostly Muslim ‘Asians’ in Birmingham….’a group of Asian men holding Palestinian flags came walking in and starting to push products over and getting aggressive with staff and shoppers.’ The BBC does however have this as their top story from Birmingham: Thousands at Eid Mela celebration Organisers … Continue reading →

    Here’s some context to the immigration ‘debate’…..what will uncontrolled immigration and an open borders policy bring us?  What indeed has it brought us?     If we’d been able to select who to let into this country perhaps such an attack would never have happened. Politicians and the media who support mass immigration are to blame for such crimes.     The future…..a prediction from 2006: 2012 to … Continue reading →

    On Friday Dominic Laurie was talking to the Bishop of Baghdad about the ISIS crisis (12:42) Laurie unwittingly revealed all that informs the BBC mindset when dealing with Islam and its sword waving followers……He stated that… ‘This isn’t though a battle between Christianity and hardcore Islam is it, because there are other areas of the Muslim faith, other peoples who are also Muslims, who are also being persecuted…it’s … Continue reading →

Just what have the BBC been getting up to with regard to the Cliff Richards story? ‘The BBC was plunged into a new crisis last night after it was publicly blasted by police over its role in the shock Sir Cliff Richard sex abuse investigation. In an extraordinary attack on the broadcaster’s standards, furious South Yorkshire Police accused the Corporation of breaking its own guidelines. The force took the highly unusual … Continue reading →

I know we have had a few problems from a technical point of view on the threads. These have been worked on behind the scenes and so here is a new open thread that I hope runs smoothly.

  Bored with the BBC’s ‘The Honourable Woman’ and looking for something more credible and inventive I settled for Jonathan Creek, episode 1 of the first series.   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IUco1R2MWLo     23 minutes in and we are given instructions on how to hack phone messages. That was in 1997.   So why the outrage at Murdoch?   The War on Rupert Murdoch is the Real Story of the Hacking Saga. … Continue reading →
