All Cant On The Easton Front

  The BBC’s very own Mark Easton has made the big time, his habit of trashing anything Tory whilst putting up a stiff defence of anything Labour has been noticed by the MSM…. Labour’s latest star performer The Labour Party is a bit short of top-rank performers to wheel on to the Today programme, so it must be relieved to have found someone expert at skewering Coalition policies. Last week, … Continue reading

I say Dashed Unsporting Old Chap

Here’s an interesting question says the interesting Evan Davis to Vincent Tchenguiz who was arrested for fraud but released later  as innocent…. ‘Let’s suppose you were a white, English born, public school educated, er, toff with a Sir in front of your first name…do you think the Serious Fraud Office would have had any interest in your case?’ Vincent shoots down Davis saying that race or class had no impact … Continue reading

Like It or Lump It

Today on the BBC David Goodheart, Director of Demos, said this: ‘Labour’s immigration policy was ‘easily the most significant aspect of labour’s period in power.’   Despite the overwhelming significance of that immigration policy thanks to the BBC this policy went entirely unremarked and without challenge for a decade denying the British Public a voice in one of the most controversial and contentious issues this country has had to face. … Continue reading

The ‘Open Borders’ Open Thread

Another Open Thread…but I’ve started it off for you….. I haven’t had time to take a longer look at this but it pretty much speaks for itself…and you know the BBC reaction…this will be one of those ‘benchmark’ quotes that will now be kept in a high state of readiness to blow away anyone who dare suggest  that perhaps mass immigration and a ‘nation’ of strangers is not conducive to … Continue reading

No Right Turn

  Some of you must have seen this from 2010 but I somehow missed it….however it is so good on so many levels that it is worth refreshing the memory…especially at a time when the BBC is ‘on the stump’ with Labour attacking Coalition ‘cuts’ and job losses in the Public Sector in the name of efficiency and productivity.   Ken Loach is so far Left that he makes Ken … Continue reading

War Is (A Secular) Hell.

  There is a religious war going on in Nigeria right now…long denied by the BBC who preferred to categorize Christians killed by Muslims or churches burnt down and congregations slaughtered or Muslims killed by Christians as ‘tribal’ or ‘ethnic’ conflicts or disputes over land. The BBC has been forced to admit that perhaps this is a ‘religious’ conflict driven by Muslims intending to impose Islam across the whole of … Continue reading

Question Time LiveChat 21st June 2012

Question Time tonight comes from West Bromwich – and specifically from the new £77 million Sandwell College. On the panel are Justice Secretary Ken Clarke, shadow health secretary Andy Burnham, general secretary of the Unite trade union Len McCluskey, economist Ruth Lea and Midlands Business Woman of the year Julie White. Although by ‘Business Woman of the Year’ we mean in 2011, limited to the Midlands, a title made up … Continue reading

Penny For Your Thoughts

Jimmy Carr earns £3million before tax, and earns nearly £3 million after tax.  Jimmy Carr has been caught red handed and is now very red faced …because he was caught. Remarkable how the Celebrity World rallies round and gives voice in his support. How strange when not so very long ago they were baying for, not just Banker’s blood, but that of highly successful businessmen who received bonuses. 5Live today … Continue reading

Not What You Say But The Way That You Say It.

Was it just me or was there definitely an impression given by the BBC (certainly on 5Live) that the unemployment figures going down by 52,000 was possibly a bad thing……as one reporter suggested…it was only a good thing ‘on the face of it….you have to ask how is it possible (to have falling unemployment) when we are mired in a double dip recession’. ….and the figures only give ‘mixed messages’. … Continue reading

Below The Radar

Here is a slightly deeper look at ‘38 Degrees’ mentioned in a previous post. It is the campaigning group that seems to embody every value that the BBC itself likes to promote….and is attempting to influence who gets the BBC Director General’s job when Mark Thompson goes, as well as trying to influence the outcome of the BSkyB bid. Its campaign’s page looks as if it is the schedule for … Continue reading
