MARGARET HODGE -BBC SUPERSTAR

  Margaret Hodge must love the BBC, she gets consistent favourable PR even when she comes out with predictable dreary Labour propaganda. The government will need to react quickly if a benefit cut for social housing tenants leads to rises in rent arrears and homelessness, MPs say. Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chair Margaret Hodge said it could have a “severe impact” on low-income families. Estimates supplied to the BBC by some of … Continue reading

THE SOLUTION TO CYPRUS? MORE EUROPE

And another little gem from the BBC this morning at 7.09am. At a time when the eurocrats have shot themselves in the foot with their demanded bank heist of savers deposits in Cypriot banks, the BBC’s Chris Morris was in Italy, in Rome. He was talking to the Chief Executive of an Italian bank who was assuring the world that Italy’s banks were as sound as an….erm..Euro! Morris then SUGGESTED … Continue reading

WHY IMMIGRATION IS GOOD

You have to smile at the way in which the BBC moves to get the first strike in ANYTIME that Cameron starts to act in the national interest. There was this item on Today that made me laugh at the sheer inherent anti Conservative BIAS of it. God forbid we seek to place the interests of British people ahead of those of immigrants; Speaking on the Today programme Jonathan Portes, … Continue reading

JUST SAYING

      Something to chew on for our readers. Sue and Craig who used to post here have set up their own site reporting on bias in the BBC….‘Is The BBC Biased?’ They say that the reason for doing so was that they were being stereotyped and labelled because of their views…and secondly that the comments below the posts were too aggressive and cliched. Certainly there are attempts by … Continue reading

Miss Israel

  No sign of Miss Israel 2012, Shani Hazan, on the BBC:       For some reason we have an encyclopaedic entry for Miss israel 2013:     An immigrant from Ethiopia when she was 12 years old, Yityish Aynaw learnt Hebrew with no extra help and served as an officer in the Israeli army.  Those Israelis must be terrible people allowing that. The BBC can’t let all that success go without … Continue reading

MAIR THE MERRIER

The BBC have launched an extraordinary hatchet job on Boris Johnson. using some pretty ancient history (the Guppy phone call  made the news in 1995)….no coincidence that the newspapers have in the last few days been full of stories that the successful and popular Boris looks like going for the leadership of the Tory Party…..the BBC’s Eddie Mair making the highly personal and opinionated comment that Boris is a ‘nasty piece of … Continue reading

FLANDERING

  ‘Flandering  V [flarn-der-in’]’:    Floundering whilst flimflamming on Labour’s behalf.   Fun day yesterday listening to the BBC old guard forming a ragged thin red line around Labour’s battered and discredited leadership just as Labour’s very own Old Guard are doing the BBC’s job and holding Labour to account. Yesterday as mentioned in an earlier post the Mirror’s Brian Reade launched an attack on Labour’s record on the economy and now, today, … Continue reading

Anti-Semitism Discovered In the Muslim Community: Shocker!

Douglas Murray’s blog post in the Spectator caught my eye yesterday, in which he points out a must-read article in the HuffingtonPost by Mehdi Hasan. No, really: The Sorry Truth Is That the Virus of Anti-Semitism Has Infected the British Muslim Community Hasan felt compelled for some reason to speak out against Lord Ahmed’s rant about how a Jewish conspiracy caused his conviction for killing someone while driving and texting … Continue reading

A BBC CHARTER

I thought this was a rather good point sent my way by Rodney Atkinson; I am must say I have always been incensed by the presumed right of the comic and BBC classes to insult everyone else and deny the insulted the right of equal – or indeed any – reply. I note that the new PRESS Royal Charter allows this, by making prominent or front page apologies (depending on the … Continue reading
