Just been listening to 5Live talking  (around 08:45…still on air just now) to Labour’s Jon Ashworth as he talked about this: Labour accuses Tesco and Next of hiring foreign staff on the cheap Labour will ignite a fresh row over immigration this week by naming leading companies who they claim “seem to deliberately exclude British people” from jobs     Guess what?  Not a single word from the … Continue reading →

    Richard dawkins has stirred up a bit of a Twitterspat with a completely innocuous comment.   　  Caitlin Moran decided Dawkins was declaring war on Muslims: The Telegraph’s Tom Chivers put a but more effort into coming to the same conclusion: Please be quiet, Richard Dawkins, I’m begging, as a fan Dawkins may believe that he is criticising only the religion, and its effects on the people who … Continue reading →

  Two girls have acid thrown in their faces on a Muslim majority Island.   The BBC think this may be one of Mark Mardell’s ‘senseless tragedies’… ‘….it was the first time visitors to the island had been attacked in this way, describing the incident as “alien” to both the police investigating and the victims. Officers had no idea as to the motive.‘ But just in case anyone should be … Continue reading →

Blimey but time flies! This is overdue but now underway! Off you go … detail the bias!

      ‘The Changeling’ takes you into a Catholic world of blurred edges and deepest shadows where you cannot trust that what you see is true. The Cambridge Student newspaper 2007 　 You may have been following the spectacle of the academic, historian and all round cosmopolitan Tim Stanley trying to handbag working class Tommy Robinson for his views on Islam. The most recent cause of Stanley’s angst is, … Continue reading →

So, the Government announces an extra HALF A £££ BILLION for ‘struggling A&E”‘s in England.  Labour responds by saying this is not enough (when is it ever enough for the comrades?) and the BBC dutifully follow up by wheeling on  Dr Clifford Mann, president of the College of Emergency Medicine to inform the BBC Radio 4’s Today programme that  he had “real concerns” about how the money would be allocated. … Continue reading →

Apologies to anyone who has covered this in the comments….I haven’t read them yet.  The BBC seem to have lost all sense of journalistic direction and proportion with the latest manufactured UKIP ‘scandal’……it proves the BBC is way, way out of touch with ‘normal’ people who more than likely agree with UKIP….as indeed a majority of the emails and texts into 5Live today seemed to ….it’s not as if the UKIP MEP … Continue reading →

The BBC seems to be running a series of attacks on UKIP. The latest one uses the old “bongo bongo” riff from many years ago and does everything possible to demonise UKIP’s Godfrey Bloom. The source for the attack is the BBC’s print arm, The Guardian. One can understand WHY the BBC loathes UKIP and I am sure that ahead of next year’s Euro elections, we will see much more … Continue reading →

Well, Monday’s open thread is heaving at the seams so this is timely. Has the BBC shown overt bias, care to tell us about it? The floor is yours!

  Hadda in the comments has also noticed this….. Hilary Andersson has tried to put some distance between ‘Islam’ and the Boston Bombers….going so far as to air the suggestion that they weren’t true Jihadis at all but were possibly in thrall to white supremacist right wing ideology. At least Mark Mardell, when he famously denied that Major Nidal Hassan murdered 13 fellow soldiers in the name of Islam, didn’t try … Continue reading →
