Here you go, a new Open Thread to see us on through the week of relentless bias!

  Sorry about the title but I think I can’t really take much more of his low brow, lightweight,  twaddle….considering the job he is supposed to do. Thanks to Dave S who pointed out this from Robinson: UKIP immigration policy – the wife test On a day when Nigel Farage launched a nationwide poster campaign warning that millions of Europeans were waiting to take your job, I asked him why … Continue reading →

      The racism of the white wolf who cried Islamophobia     There’s a bee in my bonnet. Let’s talk about the racism of the white wolf who cried Islamophobia. I’m tired of a certain faction of Western liberals, especially white guys, Westsplaining about how anti-Muslim bigotry and Western colonialism and imperialism and international geopolitics provide *essential context* for understanding the sources of Muslim problems, which don’t come from … Continue reading →

    The Telegraph tells us about Derek Bateman who left BBC Scotland last year….. Derek Bateman was a long-standing BBC Scotland presenter who now, set up with his own blog, feels free to offer his view of England and Tory policies which presumably made him to toast of the BBC canteen in Glasgow.

      UKIP are under fire….ironically by Labour…for their ‘racist’ advertisements:     Not quite sure how that is racist….it is after all true…..even the first wave of East European immigrants complain about the next lot undercutting them in pay rates!   The BBC have been reporting it at length…strangely concentrating a fair bit on who funded the adverts….but also happily reporting the ‘furore’ about alleged racism.   Even … Continue reading →

    Just a reminder of the fickle world of politics……   David Cameron has declared that “Britain is a Christian country and we should not be afraid to say so”, in a speech to mark the 400th anniversary of the King James Bible. “The King James Bible is a book that has not just shaped our own country, but shaped the world,”   When did he declare that?  In … Continue reading →

    This week’s Start the Week had ‘Anne McElvoy looking back at the life of the maverick scientist James Lovelock who pioneered the theory of Gaia, of a self-regulating Earth.’ Like that ‘maverick’ label. Lovelock also looks to the future and the next evolution of Gaia which could lead to the extinction of human life, and a rise of Artificial Intelligence, but the writer and ecologist George Monbiot prefers … Continue reading →
