.    The BBC’s programme about Murdoch, Rupert Murdoch – Battle With Britain, you might have thought would be the ultimate hatchet job. Murdoch, the BBC’s arch enemy, right wing, Thatcher supporting, the BBC’s most dangerous political and commercial rival…but he was also everything the BBC loves….an immigrant bringing innovative, radical, revolutionary ideas to break the Establishment monopoly, a Leninist Labour supporter who gave the People a voice.   In fact the programme … Continue reading →

Have at it.

        I think it is fairly well accepted that the Left hates white people, Empire (British), Christians, Western industrial and commercial success and dominance, the USA…and Mrs Thatcher of course. They have worked relentlessly to undermine everything that has brought that success to Northern Europe, the USA, Australia and other countries that have successfully dragged themselves out of the mire under Western influence….Israel especially.   Mark Mardell has helpfully … Continue reading →

The BBC has investigated accusations of bullying within its own precincts. Looking at the report it seems to be a reasonable attempt to handle the situation fairly. However as always what the official line is and what the ‘frontline’ says are often different. We know that the BBC is by law required to be balanced and impartial. We also know that that imperative is roundly ignored at ground level. (See … Continue reading →

    ‘So, historically, Buddhism has been no more a religion of peace than Christianity.’  [Not Islam?]   Outstanding piece of BBC hypocrisy which shows just how incomplete and favourable the BBC’s coverage of Islam and Islamically inspired violence is as it is prepared to publish an article linking violence and mainstream Buddhism.   Here the BBC are reporting ‘A problem of anti-Islamic feeling in Burma.’  A phrase used by … Continue reading →

    Interesting little video from Wyre Davies: As the conflict in Syria drags on, pro-government fighters near the country’s borders are turning for increasing support to their allies in neighbouring territories. Shia towns well inside Lebanon are being deliberately targeted by anti-Assad groups because of their allegiance to the regime, and many fear the country is being drawn into the fight.     Two issues are raised here: The … Continue reading →

‘As the political classes impose austerity across the developed world, the facts of inequality and human need and the determination to do something about them are gradually becoming weaponized. Precarity is opportunity. Fuck social mobility. Fuck security. Fuck money. Fuck rising above your class rather than with it. Fuck marriage, mortgage, monogamy, and every other small, ugly ambition we were bullied into pursuing. We are the new young left: precarious, … Continue reading →

    Dave Allen:  God’s Own Comedian   In the 60’s and 70’s the BBC were more daring.   Dave Allen told jokes about religion.   ‘The sketches were silly but he undermined the authority of the priests’.   He received bomb threats.   He had the Pope doing a striptease.   At a time when the Church ruled Ireland.   Dave Allen thought politicians were dangerous.   He thought … Continue reading →

    Some of you have already noticed the title of the BBC’s piece.  EDL bomb plot I thought it was a Muslim bomb plot but there you go, don’t believe what you read in the papers.   Couple of other things of interest: ‘The EDL rally finished early because of a lack of speakers’ Highlighted in this report and mentioned in another report as well….‘However, the men arrived after … Continue reading →

   　   Ilan Ziv has made a film, Exile: A Myth Unearthed, which purports to rewrite Jewish history and is of a highly political and controversial nature. The film has been shelved by the BBC. Ziv is not happy.   Film-maker queries BBC reasons for shelving Jewish history documentary  Ilan Ziv laments ‘sad saga of incompetence and political naiveté’ after BBC drops Jerusalem: an Archaeological Mystery Story “The BBC have … Continue reading →
