Gordon Brown, you remember him…Prime Minister and Leveson stalwart…..but where is he now? Even the BBC seem to have lost track of him….. Funny old world when one of the most important characters in the last 15 years in British politics goes off the BBC radar…and he didn’t make the ‘New Elizabethans’ either…those Britains who have had the greatest influence…for good or bad….in the reign of the Queen.
Can I ask if anyone has had problem accessing the site today? I’ve found it hasn’t been loading for me and want to know if the problem is wider than just my connection?
Funny how the BBC hasn’t given this more profile… “MPs have demanded that the BBC reveals details of all commercial deals its journalists have with other organisations, amid fears of an increasing number of conflicts of interest affecting their work. The Corporation is under pressure following The Mail on Sunday’s disclosure two weeks ago that senior BBC journalist Roger Harrabin, acting on behalf of the BBC, accepted £15,000 in grants … Continue reading
I was on the BBC earlier today here (45mins in)discussing some of the comments made by Conservative David Gauke concerning the “morality” of paying cash and also in tax avoidance. As ever with the BBC there is an agenda and in this case the meme is naming and shaming “the wealthy” who dare to limit their tax exposure in a lawful manner. I asked the BBC presenter if those who have … Continue reading
BBC News in paroxysm of joy at the news that the CPS have announced that eight people, including Rebekah Brooks and Andy Coulson, will face a total of 19 charges relating to phone hacking, the Crown Prosecution Service has said. The two ex-News of the World editors are to be charged in connection with the accessing of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler’s phone messages. I caught the PM coverage of thison … Continue reading
Before the 2003 Iraq War Russia, China, France and Germany opposed the US resolution to ‘legalise’ the war. The BBC fully endorsed their stance because it opposed the war itself. No questions were ever asked about why any of these countries were opposing the resolution….was it for some humane anti-war reason or the reality…a grubby backing of a murderous dictator for commercial and geo-political reasons. The vetos were therefore themselves ‘illegitimate’ being … Continue reading
Most people here will have noticed that the BBC has gone overboard this week with the hand-wringing over US gun laws. The same agenda – US gun laws are too permissive, gun ownership laws lead to a high homicide rate, etc. – has spread across the spectrum of BBC broadcasting, from the website to radio to television. All of it from the same angle: too much gun ownership, ordinary citizens … Continue reading
OK Folks – Monday morning and time for a new one of this for your use. Please fill it up with instances of their BIAS,.
Here are a further couple of examples of the aberrant behaviour that seems to be so closely associated with Islam in the UK. A former Imam up in Court for molesting young girls and a ‘Sexual predator’ who attacked two women in a nightclub and also a young mother. I’m sure the BBC will be covering these stories in detail…..
Interesting report on the BBC Today programme this morning concerning the nature of those “rebels” fighting the Assad regime. You see the BBC has embedded a reporter with the “rebels” fighting for the “Syria Free Army” as they cross from Lebanon into Syria. It appears that those who seek to bring down Assad fall into two groups; the first is Muslim but it wants to see a pluralist Syria that … Continue reading
