In 1692 the Campbells, in cahoots with the English, set upon the MacDonald clan in an attempt to massacre them in an infamous moment in Scottish history….a ‘murder under trust’. Thirty eight men were slaughtered and forty women and children died of exposure when their homes were burnt to the ground.     Nicky Campbell likes to remind us of past infamy and point the finger of blame however … Continue reading →

    The UN’s Special Rapporteur on adequate housing landed on our shores recently. The BBC seemed to take her seriously.  No mention of her loony, animal sacrificing, hard core Marxist, witch doctoring proclivities though.   Just as well that we have Guido Fawkes to bring us the low down on her.….not to mention the Daily Mail: Raquel Rolnik: A dabbler in witchcraft who offered an animal sacrifice to Marx   … Continue reading →

    More than a century ago, British engineers and their African and Indian labourers spent five years carving a railway through what would become Kenya in a bid to open up East Africa’s interior. Not everyone was convinced and the radical MP Henry Labouchere denounced it memorably: “Where it is going, nobody knows, what is the use of it, none can conjecture … It is clearly naught but a … Continue reading →

This from the Spectator: How to save the BBC? Privatise it A reckoning is long overdue. The BBC may not know the value of money, but those prosecuted for not paying its fines certainly do. Many of them struggle to make ends … Continue reading →

      The BBC is relentless and continues to push the AGW agenda, in fact pushing it harder now that global warming has ‘stalled’ (and the BBC’s impartiality review of their coverage of climate is over)….can’t have anyone getting complacent and thinking it’s nothing to worry about children!   Once again they roll out the old trick of inviting someone on to be interviewed about their work knowing full … Continue reading →

You have to smile at the BBC’s continued adoration of Obama. President Narcissus and his aide Kerry have been utterly ouflanked by Putin and Assad in recent days and yet the BBC is doing all it can to suggest that Obama and Putin are on the same page. Obama cheerleaders like Mardell have struggled to keep their hero’s halo gleaming but his tortuous efforts to win over Congress to military … Continue reading →
