NEARLY BACK
Folks, we have had major problems, nearly resolved. Please bear with us. Very traumatic at the moment.

Almost choked on my cornflakes this morning from laughing…no not at Evan Davis saying he was going to watch the Greco-Roman wrestling at the Olympics…that is probably a usual night’s entertainment in the Davis household. What was laugh out loud funny was the Davis claim that the upsurge of Britishness displayed during the Olympics must be a bad thing for the Right Wing. The sense of ‘belonging, community and shared … Continue reading
New open thread, if there’s anybody still out there…..
At last, someone at the BBC has mentioned the President’s “You didn’t build that” gaffe, which has haunted His campaign for a couple of weeks at least. The revealing Collectivist statement has inspired a series of mocking responses from small businesses and ads from the Romney campaign. It was in all the major US media outlets – they had to come to His defense, after all – yet the BBC … Continue reading
Shame probably the world’s biggest news organisation is no longer interested in news or investigative journalism…even of the most simple and obvious kind…such as asking one of the corporate sponsors of the Olympics exactly where their money goes, who gets the sponsor’s seat allocation and are their drinks really just liquid sugar poisoning our Youth? Never mind…..we have the Telegraph to enlighten us and provide balance to the BBC’s anti-business polemic: … Continue reading
Andy Murray wins tennis Olympic gold with straight-sets destruction of Roger Federer The Team GB effect has given Andy Murray wings. At Wimbledon today he pulled off one of the most extraordinary results of the modern era, as he destroyed Roger Federer – the king of Centre Court – by the scarcely believable scoreline of 6-2, 6-1, 6-4, to claim a deserved Olympic gold medal. I don’t think anyone … Continue reading
The Olympics are if anything about elitism, winning, high standards, self discipline, determination and never giving up in the face of adversity, picking yourself up and trying again after ‘failing’ the first time…it is also about national pride and honour, pride that some one from your part of the world succeeds. Everything in fact that the BBC and the Left abhor and endlessly rail against in a never ending stream … Continue reading
Thanks to John Anderson in the comments for bringing this to my attention: Spiro Theodore Agnew Television News Coverage delivered 13 November 1969, Des Moines, Iowa I think it’s obvious from the cameras here that I didn’t come to discuss the ban on cyclamates or DDT. I have a subject which I think if of great importance to the American … Continue reading
You will recall the BBC’s coverage of the London Riots last year. Ever since, the BBC has been seeking to find “explanations” for the orgy of violence, arson and looting that defaced several of our major cities. On Today this morning, we had ANOTHER item concerning the killing of Mark Duggan. His Mother is still looking for “the truth” behind his death. I suppose she has ruled out him being … Continue reading
The conviction of the parents of Shafilea Ahmed of her brutal murder has triggered a debate on the BBC. We will come to that in a moment. But first let’s focus on what Mr Justice Roderick Evans said as he announced these savages would both serve a minimum of 25 years. The judge told them: “Your concern about being shamed in your community was greater than the love of your child. The judge … Continue reading
