Wales is run by the Labour Party: The current structure of the ministerial team is formed by Welsh Labour. But you would never guess that from this BBC report: Ex-Cardiff hospital boss Russell Hopkins says NHS a ‘mess’ A former general manager of Wales’ largest hospital has condemned the state of the NHS, claiming politicians and managers have “messed it up”. The Welsh government said in a … Continue reading
There were two tragic shootings in the US this past week or so, and the BBC was keen to use them to promote their anti-gun agenda. Not only did they seek to exploit both events to further that agenda, but stooped to dishonesty, and in one case censorship, in the process. The fact that these occurred around the time the media was acknowledging the one-year anniversary of the sad Newtown … Continue reading
For all its squealing about budget limitations the BBC seems to have no problem finding the dosh for those little creature comforts for the staff: The BBC is spending up to £500,000 on a major refit of its £1 billion new headquarters because staff have complained their state-of-the art surroundings ‘lack character’. The high-spec London HQ was only opened in June – four years behind schedule and £55 million over budget. … Continue reading
The BBC’s Roger Harrabin was keen to highlight this: ‘No case’ to water down CO2 targets, chancellor told The Committee on Climate Change (CCC) says there is no legal, environmental or economic case for lowering the fourth UK “carbon budget”, set in 2011. It says the budget (running from 2023-2027) should be tightened if the EU agrees strict targets on emissions. But of course he has never once … Continue reading
Amazing hypocrisy from the HIGHNFY crew on MP’s pay (11 mins)….all things considered: At the start, Deayton got paid £3,750 a segment, £750 more than was paid to the less experienced Hislop and Merton. By the time he was fired, he was earning £50,000 a show. While Merton and Hislop receive less than that amount now, it is not considerably less. Fourteen years ago they got £12,000 … Continue reading
In his autobiography Mr Mandela makes it clear they were prepared to go further and engage in guerrilla warfare and even terrorism. Margaret Thatcher helped to avert a ‘devastating racial war’ by opposing tougher sanctions against South Africa’, F. W. de Klerk (who in 1993 won the Nobel peace prize jointly with Mr Mandela) says. The BBC et al have been delighting in smearing Mrs … Continue reading
BBC journalist Peter Biles tweets from South Africa: #Mandela Day 8. Forgive me if I'm wilting. — Peter Biles (@peterbiles) December 13, 2013
Well, I could not bring myself to watch BBC Question Time from South Africa last night – first time in ages that I found myself in such a position. The BBC Mandelathon continues entering the second week now and it’s really all become far too much. I was on the BBC Moral Maze programme the other evening and it was all about the template Mandela set for ‘forgiveness”- never once … Continue reading
Artifacts. Some of the things we see in the microscope are not a part of the original structure of the living specimen but are artifacts. An artifact is a product of man’s workmanship. Workmanship may bring to mind the craftsmanship of the Eskimo’s polar bear carved out of walrus tusk or the graceful gazelle of African ebony. Man’s workmanship also includes the embedding, sectioning, and staining of tissues for … Continue reading
Nothing to do with BBC bias….just thought you might like to see something I spotted whilst passing through Herefordshire today….the ‘Missing Pet Search Team’ on manoeuvres: Just an unfortunate coincidence for sure.
