Churchill’s disagreement with the pre-1939 war policy of appeasement was kept off the air by the BBC….. “For 11 years, they kept me off the air. They prevented me from expressing views that proved to be right. Their behaviour has been tyrannical.” The BBC’s own Nick Robinson spills the beans….and a lesson for us all…. ‘The way Churchill was handled is a powerful warning of the dangers of the … Continue reading →

Clare Balding mounts defence of BBC with some black propaganda…..or a distortion of the truth…or a lie if you like. The photo below was presented to us by Balding as if it were a picture taken in secret by a paparazzi in  the bushes and published without consent by a newspaper for dirty old men to ogle…..the truth is entirely different and puts another, completely different, perspective on the story.   The … Continue reading →

Further to David’s comments on Bland…..  Savile was said to have got away with what he did because of his reputation and celebrity status……I would suggest that the very same effect is allowing the BBC to get away with its own sordid, illicit liasons…its finger prints all over several crime scenes of political and cultural vandalism as it snuggled up with the Labour Party.   Bland’s comments on the Today … Continue reading →

Right folks, here is  new OPEN THREAD for you to take us into the wide blue yonder of the weekend. Also to let you know that I will be appearing on BBC Sunday Morning Live tomorrow morning discussing whether Prisons are too tough/not tough enough.

The BBC stands indicted concerning precisely who knew what and why some did NOTHING during the decades of alleged sex abuse carried out by BBC star and national treasure Jimmy Savile. I don’t know about you but I think this response is utterly inadequate… “The BBC is to launch two inquiries surrounding sex abuse claims made against Sir Jimmy Savile, director general George Entwistle has announced. The first into why … Continue reading →

Stephanie Flanders, has notoriously has slept with both Ed Milliband and Ed Balls. She is “nauseated” by Conservatives. So she is ideal as the Economics Editor of the BBC then. “In his speech Cameron talks about the NHS but can they tell us how many of the Cabinet have private health insurance?!” So Stephanie … do you? We know you send your two children to public schools so it’s not … Continue reading →

A new one of these for you!

BBC DJ Liz Kershaw was on Nicky Campbell’s show this morning giving a good account of herself regarding the BBC culture in the 1980’s….a time when PC and health and safety were rapidly becoming  a fixture in the workplace….so even if you were inclined to say ‘Well it was the times’, that’s just not true…it was not the 50’s when a woman knew her place nor the swinging 60’s era of … Continue reading →

Bodo in the comments has highlighted this article in the guardian reporting that the BBC is to instigate a new investigation into its isupposed mpartiality. The report will look into the BBC’s coverage of Europe, immigration and religion. Now it may just me being cynical but this is just one in a long line of such reports which seem to be purely designed to cover up more than they reveal. … Continue reading →

    This programme is one that should see the new DG in the dock at OFFCOM if any BBC programme would. Evan Davis has ensured that the BBC has taken sides in one of the biggest political and economic arguments of the times. The BBC has become openly political and partisan. A programme that was dreamt up as a clever ‘Trojan horse’ to ‘nudge’ us into accepting a certain … Continue reading →
