A week ago Paul Weston, chairman of the party Liberty GB, was arrested for quoting Churchill on Islam. The BBC reported this but didn’t seem to think it significant and the issues, suh as freedom of speech or indeed the issues raised by Weston himself, worthy of exploration…how different the benevolent coverage for the Muslim suicide bomber, or someone encarcerated in Guantanamo Bay, or a ‘community leader’ claiming Muslims … Continue reading
Today let loose a climate change advocate…Trevor Maynard(08:47)… but they didn’t tell us his links to the climate lobby. Today didn’t question his claims…..that hurricanes are getting stronger, that we’re heading for a 4 degrees temperature rise (a horrible scenario!), that we have to decarbonise…they did suggest there might be a pause in warming but were told that there has definitely been no pause in global warming…’that’s completely … Continue reading
Remarkably the BBC is able to continue operating as smoothly as ever without the talented Chris Patten’s guiding hand….so I’m assuming the bias is coming as thick and fast as ever…list it here……
Patten has fled the scene of the crime and space is being booked in the Guardian’s jobs vacant section. But who might be the best candidate for the job as Chairman of the BBC Trust? The Telegraph has a stab at defining the necessary characteristics: The debate about the BBC is one of the most important we will have in this country in the next few years. Unless you … Continue reading
Labour has released a video on Youtube which bears a remarkable similarity to the political rants disguised, almost, as comedy on the Now Show……only funnier. This weeks ‘Now Show’ doesn’t disappoint our low expectations with what is nothing less than an anti-government diatribe (9 mins) with not much sign of comedy…but then it is Marcus Brigstock making a welcome return…don’t know where he’s been but … Continue reading
Normally the BBC settles for merely rewriting the past, or just ignoring whole chunks of it (1997-2010 for instance), but today the Beeb treated us to a glimpse into the future.…apparently the vast majority of the human population will be consigned to the scrap heap living lives of unending poverty and misery whilst a gilded elite exploit us using powerful new technology and reaping all the rewards for … Continue reading
Looking up Diane Coyle’s Wikipedia entry and this is what came up today: Diane Coyle, OBE (born February 1961), is a freelance economist and a former advisor to the UK Treasury. She is a member of the UK Competition Commission and is acting Chairman of the BBC Trust, the governing body of the British Broadcasting Corporation. Thought that was odd…‘acting chairman’…since when? The answer…someone didn’t waste … Continue reading
Jeremy Bowen doesn’t do things by half. Not content with merely reporting the news, in his own inimitable way, he has decided to play his part in making it, and history along with it, replacing Tony Blair as Middle East Envoy and deciding Israel has logically no right to exist if Palestinians don’t get their demands answered. His reply when asked about the possibility of a one state … Continue reading
The BBC were quick to bring you, twice, a story about Jewish school children allegedly being traumatised when taught about the Holocaust. The BBC though never seems to find the time to bring you any reports about the Palestinian education system…. …despite it being quite obviously traumatic…again for the Jews….guess the BBC only cares when it can paint Jews in a bad light….Jews teaching their … Continue reading
Is that really why a peace settlement hasn’t been negotiated in the last 20 years…or is it more likely that this is the problem?: In December 2006, Ismail Haniyeh, Prime Minister of the PA, declared that the PA will never recognize Israel: “We will never recognize the usurper Zionist government and will continue our jihad-like movement until the liberation of Jerusalem.” That was in 2006….but just a … Continue reading
