Dodging Taxes and Dodging The Bulletin

Over 3,000 BBC staff are using tax avoidance schemes. You might think that this would be of great interest to a news organisation which has set itself the task to root out corrupt and ‘immoral’ practices in politics, banking and , er, other media companies. You would be wrong. As the Daily mail points out when given the chance to talk to the chairman of the public accounts committee they … Continue reading

ALMOST ADMIRING JIHAD?

The BBC seem very excited about the recent event in Syria that took the lives of  three of Boy Bashar’s inner circle. The BBC is presenting this as a “bomb” attack but it was a human bomb attack – the preferred mechanism of the Jihadi. You may accuse me of being overly sensitive but the BBC seem to almost “admire” this grotesque act of terror. It is being plainlyy portrayed … Continue reading

HOUSE OF LABOUR

I was listening to the BBC report on yesterday in the Lords on Today. It was tucked away around 6.45am but what struck me was the incredible pro-Labour spin the report. Combined with the sneering tones of the presenter, there was little in this report to suggest balance. It’s all part of the pro-Miliband riff that the BBC is playing and it is 24/7.

Follow The Money

The BBC intended to broadcast a show that gave a platform to last year’s rioters so that they could excuse their actions and blame society for their behaviour…which let’s not forget involved…..‘The riots across England in August 2011 should need no introduction. Following the police shooting of Mark Duggan, a peaceful protest in Tottenham developed into explosive violent disorder.  Over five days trouble spread across the country with people looting, … Continue reading

GREAT BRITISH ISLAM…

Given the events in Bulgaria and BBC non coverage so far, I can just about bring myself to make you aware of this programme “Great British Islam” on BBC 1 tonight… “As Ramadan approaches, this documentary tells the little-known story of three English gentlemen who embraced Islam at a time when to be a Muslim was to be seen to be a traitor to your country. Through personal journeys of … Continue reading

NOW THEY COME FOR THE LAZY!

The jihad against smokers was only the beginning. Next came the assault on those who enjoy drinking alcohol.  Today we see that those who do not exercise are now  in the cross-hairs. A lack of exercise is now causing as many deaths as smoking across the world, a study suggests. The report, published in the Lancet to coincide with the build-up to the Olympics, estimates that about a third of … Continue reading

TIME TO FOLLOW BBC ADVICE AND STOP PAYING LICENCE FEE?

Delingpole on good form here… “The BBC has nothing whatsoever to do with the free market. Nor – I’d wager – do most of those 148 BBC stars channeling their earnings through private companies to avoid tax. With the possible exceptions of Jeremy Clarkson (and frankly even he’s a bit politically suspect what with his rampant brown-nosing of the Cameron set) and Andrew Neil, small-government, free-market, low-tax types just don’t … Continue reading

GOING ROGUE…

You would need a heart of stone not to laugh at the irony; “A presenter on the BBC consumer affairs show Rogue Traders has been jailed for 12 weeks for benefit fraud totalling more than £24,000. Dan Penteado, 40, from Bournemouth, admitted eight offences of dishonestly or knowingly claiming housing and council tax benefits.”
