This is what energy company SSE had to say today as it raised prices: ‘Over many years, policymakers themselves have failed to highlight adequately the cost to consumers of the policies they have pursued in government.’   Government has been allowed to hide the costs of those ‘green’ energy policies and the way they makes our fuel bills go ever upward, and the reason is that the BBC has, … Continue reading →

  H/T to Chris for linking to this from the Mail: How the BBC buried the story: MI5 attack on Left-wing paper’s leaks played down BBC downplays MI5 chief’s scathing condemnation of The Guardian Newsnight editor is former Guardian executive Ian Katz ‘They appear to be protecting Left-wing friends’ – Tory MP   The BBC were certainly looking at it throughout today…Though Humphrys (08:10) looked to have finally come down … Continue reading →

      The PM woke up to a birthday treat he tells us this morning…the BBC actually reported some good news for the government….despite Austerity public services seem to be carrying on the same if not better in many people’s opinion. Many people in Britain think the quality of public services overall have been maintained or improved in the past five years despite government cuts, a poll for the … Continue reading →

  Always been somewhat surprised how the BBC would comment quite happily about the lack of English players in the premiership and how something should be done to increase the numbers and thence help the England squad…isn’t that just a bit too nationalistic and Little Englander for the great and the good of the BBC?

Also you may … Continue reading →

      Tommy for you the war is over…. Or is it?  Mohammed Shafiq from the Ramadan Foundation,  talking on the BBC seemed to think so, claiming the forces of conservative Islam had won a great victory and had closed down the EDL.   In May a new approach was suggested for the EDL… It would be interesting to  see the BBC’s reaction if the EDL adopted the ‘Sinn Fein/IRA’ approach … Continue reading →

Miliband has had a reshuffle in his shadow cabinet….and out went three Blairites…..all three of whom had been given the ‘blackspot’ by Len McCluskey, Unite’s dinosaur union … Continue reading →

    I should even things up  a bit and say that ‘Have I Got News For You’ (17 mins 30 secs) didn’t spend half hour doing a Miliband party broadcast….they did put the boot into Miliband as well….here he is, as they claimed, with his new Boy Band…The World’s Dullest Boyband…..’No Direction’:     And here is the new ruthless, but caring Miliband, putting his own boot in….   That’ll teach the … Continue reading →
