Sounds grotesque.  From Finchley.. #bbcqt‘s back on Thursday with Ken Clarke, David Blunkett, @MingCampbellMP, @pollytoynbee and Margaret Thatcher’s biographer Charles Moore.

By way of balance, I came across this item on the BBC this evening; Gerald Scarfe on how he loved to loathe Thatcher

Here’s a new one to follow on from David’s last one. Thatcher is still the BIG news story so detail it here. I can’t recall being this annoyed at the BBC in ages.

Does the Labour movement’s dignity and discipline enable us to mark with appropriate solemnity the death of a former Prime Minister who … Continue reading →

  I have been away all day, in London.  The news of the death of Lady Thatcher is THE story of the day, the week. I am personally distraught at her passing. On the way back from the Airport I listened to the BBC and a programme which praised her as amongst the top 4 Prime Ministers of the last hundred years. Oh, just behind Comrade Brown perhaps? I cannot … Continue reading →

Let this be the thread for catching BBC bias about one of the last of the giants of the 20th Century. Love her or loathe her, as the BBC says……

The BBC’s new Director General, Tony Hall, thinks the BBC is not left of centre. If that is the case then what is the explanation for the atrociously one sided reporting that floods out of the BBC providing neither context, history or genuine analysis of any depth or originality? Are its journalists just bad or incompetent then? What we get from the BBC is all too often what might be … Continue reading →
