BBC also in overdrive this morning to highlight the mistake made in Glasgow last night when the South Korean flag was flown by mistake at a Ladies football game featuring North Korea. I think the BBC reaction to this has been entirely disproportionate and if ever there was a Nation that we should not be apologising to it is the tinpot but nuclear armed despots of North Korea. Far too … Continue reading
Oh dear. Seems like the BBC have decided that Mitt Romney is a waycist! There was an absolutely DISGRACEFUL interview on Today this morning with Stacy Hilliard, who worked on Mitt Romney’s campaign to become a Governor in Massachusetts. With Billy Bunter look-alike Mark Mardell also putting in his pro Obama tuppence worth, this was a pure attack piece and I felt sorry for Stacy who at one point seemed … Continue reading
BBC sycophancy towards Vince Cable has reached new levels of nausea this morning. A headline on the Today programme was that Cable agreed that he would make a good Chancellor! You don’t say? This is of course also being used by the BBC as a not so coded attack on Osborne but it’s remarkable how the BBC grovels to Cable. I wonder if Cable’s self declared “war on Murdoch” is … Continue reading
The BBC has been using the Olympics as a springboard to attack the big commercial companies that are part of the Olympic deal. The BBC, for all its talk about GDP, growth and jobs seems implacably opposed to the very businesses that provide all those things. This is what a BBC high flier has to say about his time at the BBC: ‘Sir Antony (Jay) admitted that when he was … Continue reading
Victoria Derbyshire was comprehensively routed and put to the sword today….twice. The latest GDP figures were announced and apparently the economy is sinking fast…or as the BBC put it in every news report…‘Britain is in the worst recession since records began…50 years ago.’ Hang on! The worst recession since records began…but only since the 1960’s?…that’s very convenient….was there no record of the Great depression then? Was that just a legend, … Continue reading
Stop the Presses…hold the front page….new evidence has emerged of Christian perfidy! Libby Purves rewrites history on Midweek and reveals the little known ‘fact’ that Spain was in fact Moorish, a Muslim country, until it was conquered by the Christians in the 13th century whereupon they forced everyone to convert to Christianity and were force fed pork by the Inquisition. A slight liberty with the facts there by Purves…which totally … Continue reading
Today fabricated a story to keep climate change in the headlines….. 0838 Analysts are saying that America’s worst drought for 50 years could mean that rising food prices could hit some of the world’s poorest countries. Joe Kelsay of the Indiana Department of Agriculture explains how bad the situation is, and Dr Alice Bows, senior lecturer in Energy and Climate Change at the Sustainable Consumption Institute, explains what needs … Continue reading
BBC pretty exultant that the subsidy cut to onshore wind generation is only going to be 10% and not that 25% that “right wing” Conservatives wanted. The Limp as Lettuce politician Ed Davey was portrayed in heroic tones for seeing off the challenge to the Green Lobby although to be fair he gives such a bad interview that even this was somewhat diluted. Our friend Roger Harrabin was also on … Continue reading
With the London Olympics consuming more and more BBC coverage as we approach the start of the Games, I though this was an interesting set of observations from a B-BBC reader; “This is a slightly different complaint from what is normal, in that the BBC hasn’t yet deployed its bias and general idiocy. It’s more of a plea to counter it. A lot has been said of the BBC’s woeful … Continue reading
Well, the site seems to running a bit better this morning so let me put this new Open Thread up for you. More to follow..!
