Biased BBC contributor Alan writes… “Pro Europeans fighting back…..Ball’s answer to massive debt is more debt, the BBC answer to Euro implosion is more Europe. Enoch Powell has for the BBC been a scurrilous, dangerous race baiter whose views on immigration were an outrage to a civilised nation…his warning that mass immigration could result in a rise in race attacks and xenophobia and conflict between communities were evidence of almost … Continue reading →

It’s Monday and a new week and so time for the BBC to try and open up a new schism in the Coalition if at all possible! This time, it’s Saint Vince Cable who calls sacking plans in Beecroft report  ‘the wrong approach.’  That’s the headline the BBC chose. But then if you read the article you find Cable also says when asked whether there was a difference of view between … Continue reading →

Give it a read! “Where does Ann Pettifor come from? The information I can find online suggest she has never held a job in the real world by which I … Continue reading →

Wonder WHY the BBC seem a tad reluctant to report this story? “An emergency medical crew narrowly escaped being lynched this week while responding on the scene of an injurious car accident near Jerusalem, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Friday. The fateful call came on Tuesday; a car carrying a group of Palestinian youths from DNA match found in TA rape case.” One wonders if the reverse scenario had occurred and Jews had carried … Continue reading →

Some pithy comments here about the BBC from Christopher Booker.. “Boris Johnson calls for a Tory director-general to knock sense into the BBC. Perhaps he has forgetten that it already has a Tory chairman – that tireless Europhile and global warming zealot, Lord (Chris) Patten. As a footnote, to illustrate how trivial so much BBC coverage has become, its political correspondent Nick Robinson last week reported David Cameron’s claim to … Continue reading →
