Hi all. Can see that Friday’s thread is fuller than empty promises from Miliband, so here’s a new one for y’all!

I note that Religion of Peace enthusiasts have been so active in the past few days. Whether it was slaughtering 59 people in a shopping mall in Nairobi, or mowing down dozens of Christians leaving a church in Pakistan, or blowing to pieces other Muslims attending a funeral in Baghdad, the ROP has not left an opportunity to slaughter. Wonder what you reckon to BBC coverage of these acts of Jihad? … Continue reading
Well then, great hatchet job by the BBC on UKIP today, contrasting nicely with their slabbering sycophantic coverage of Clegg and the gang. I caught the BBC 5 live afternoon coverage…the MOST important story in the world for several hours and a great way to ensure UKIP are damaged. Bloom may not be coming up roses for UKIP but the reaction from the MSM in general, and BBC in particular, … Continue reading
It was all going so well…and then those chickens started coming home to roost. Leveson has been ‘disastrous’ says Guardian legal chief The Guardian’s director of editorial legal services Gill Phillips has said the outcome of Leveson Inquiry has been “disastrous”. Phillips told delegates: “What Leveson has come up with is the worst of all worlds. “His attempt to please everybody and avoid … Continue reading

I have now learnt why….Labour was not to blame. Who was responsible for all those deaths? Mrs Thatcher. I kid you not. The BBC, in the shape of their Business reporter, Lesley Curwen, … Continue reading
Wonder what you make of the BBC coverage of the gathering of the Libdems in Scotland this past few days? It struck me as being remarkably sympathetic to Clegg and the gang. I suspect Cameron will NOT be getting such benign coverage!
Mardell just can’t help himself. He made a video report from just outside the Washington Navy Yard yesterday, featuring interviews BBC freelancers collected from a couple of the mass murderer’s friends, as well as his own analysis. Mardell said that mass murder of this kind is now “as American as baseball.” Isn’t that charming? He wouldn’t dare say that child rape or honor killings or beheadings were as Islamic as … Continue reading
Here you go. This is a Selfridges approved Vince Cable endorsed open thread for your attention.
Wonder what you make of the BBC’s coverage of Aaron Alexis’s rampage at the Washington DC Dockyard? They seemed awfully excited when the initial news seemed that it was a WHITE shooter but now the jury is in we must ponder if Obama thinks that Alexis “could have been me.:”
