Reds On Top Of The Bed

Dame Helen Mirren, once of the Socialist Worker‘s Party tells us: “I was never a left-winger, actually,” she told Time Out. “I was a pretend left-winger because it was more interesting than being a right-winger.  I never really embraced the ideology because socialists were so sexist and racist.” How true…it seems: The BBC were happy to give some good publicity to this junket backed by the Socialist Worker’s Party:   Slutwalk … Continue reading

Immigrant Theft?

  The BBC had a small programme on Roma immigration hidden away on the World Service but played at 0400 on Saturday morning on R4. Definitely worth a listen whether you are pro or anti-mass immigration.  Shame the BBC hides such a revealing programme away.  I can only imagine that once they had listened to it they realised it was too likely to bolster the ‘anti’ case. Two things of … Continue reading

Mrs Brown Boy’s

  Must just be a coincidence that the latest series of Mrs Brown’s Boys had a theme of gay marriage…and the final episode, with a stern lecture to the priesthood on ‘love’,  was broadcast the night before a Commons vote on the subject.     I imagine someone thinks every little bit of pressure helps the Cause however unlikely. Having said that..not so unlikely….most people would listen to the rib … Continue reading

The main grievance is over Israel’s occupation of … Continue reading

Hodge The Dodge

Dodging questions of course not taxes.   Just adding a little to David’s earlier piece on Margaret Hodge…the more you look the less savoury the view…..one QC saying that Hodge’s and her fellow MP’s  comments on the tax affairs of the likes of Amazon, Google and Starbucks is an ‘unprincipled attack on the rule of law’. Hodge is very protective of her reputation….no problem there for her…the BBC at least … Continue reading

MARGARET HODGE – TAX CRUSADER

Here she is – the BBC’s much loved Margaret Hodge. Did you catch her whining away during the Public Accounts Committee set to at the “Big 4” accountancy companies. Did you hear the gushing reverential tone the BBC adopted when reviewing her performance?  Like all the hard left, they just love the idea of bashing those who seek to stop Government from raiding profits of private enterprise. I think it … Continue reading
