I was listening to the Today programme around 6.45am and caught a remarkably sneering piece by the BBC on how the Conservatives cannot be trusted on tax. The comment that really made my ears prick up was “It takes independent bodies like the Resolution Fundation to tell us how things really are” before going on to play a clip of Osborne saying NO tax increases before the 2010 election and … Continue reading
Good morning one and all, here is a much need NEW Open thread for you to detail the bias.
Burqa riots in Paris but our world class BBC don’t seem that interested on telling us on their home page. (Yes, I know it is the World page) By way of comparison they have the US bombing the Great Barrier Reef on the home page.
The BBC seem VERY concerned for the well being of Jihad butcher suspect Michael Adebolajo. And when it’s not concern for poor Michael then its concern for Mosques being attacked by (whispers) Ukrainians It’s almost as IF the BBC seeks to present Islam as the victim!!!
Ah, how touching of the BBC to publish this obituary for “pioneering” US journalist Helen Thomas dies at 92. Thomas was a profound anti-Semite so even the BBC felt obliged to make passing reference to some of her vile comments but hey, she “regretted’ those slurs against Jews so no big deal. Right? Straight to hell, Helen. Naturally the BBC admire her.
Old thread overflowing so here’s one to take us all off into the sunny uplands of the weekend!

Her reasons: White flight, leaving inner city blacks to suffer and find themselves trapped in an urban nightmare The collapse of the car industry “Detroit has suffered a vicious … Continue reading
All too real via Guido and Cityunslicker: Ed Miliband set on reform, but not on break with the BBC Ed Miliband has explicitly ruled out breaking Labour‘s historic links with the BBC, saying he wants to “mend not end” the relationship while giving individual watching people more of a role in choosing what’s on TV. After a week in which allegations of policy-rigging by Labour’s largest backer, … Continue reading
I was no fan of the 2012 London Olympics but can appreciate that it may have done some good in a roundabout way. The point is that when our Capital city won the right to host the games under LABOUR, the BBC were to the fore in cheerleading for the the occasion. But under a Conservative led Coalition, well, things are a tad different. The Today programme this morning was … Continue reading
The BBC seem concerned that the Palestinians are undecided on the Kerry peace talks plan. As always with the BBC, the only perspective that counts is that of the Palestinians with Israel demoted to a bit part in this negotiation. It was the same story of the Today programme this morning.
