Interesting post here over on Guido’s site that is well worth a read. In essence, BBC Newsnight favouring the Green Party over UKIP for the Mayoral debate this evening. Shame on them, again. Well done to Guido for flagging up this blatant bias.
Middle of the week and time for a new one of these for your edification!
Interesting piece on the BBC here concerning the emerging threat from Al Queda in AFRICA, and how this could increase the Jihad threat in Britain. British youths from African communities could become radicalised as al-Qaeda looks to Africa to build its strength, the Rusi think tank has suggested. It says such a development would pose new challenges for UK and other Western intelligence services. It warns of potential for new or … Continue reading
Ah. Giles Fraser. A BBC favourite, on the speed-dial for comment, with a guaranteed line of thinking that flows effortlessly into the BBC group-think. B-BBC’s Alan picks up on this here… “Another little BBC programme just adding to the undercurrent of anti-capitalism, anti-banker rhetoric and whispers that are the cause celebre uniting the unthinking chattering classes and the great unwashed of the Socialist Workers Party and Occupy. ‘Ceremony and Society, … Continue reading
This is a lengthy post but I fully commend you read all of it below the fold because it is a wonderful dissection of the current BBC series fronted by Professor Diarmaid Macculloch which aims to subvert everything we know about being British. Biased BBC’s Alan writes… ‘It is only now at the beginning of the 21st Century that history is being rewritten.’ The Story of Maths – 2. The Genius … Continue reading
Yesterday, I queries the BBC view of the Falklands war all those years ago. I am reminded by a B-BBC contributor of this; “Here’s an interesting snippet from the BBC revealing what it thinks about the Falklands and perhaps the Argentinian claim on them: ‘Thirty years after the Falkland’s War, journalist and military historian Max Hastings explores the conflict’s impact and its legacy. The Falklands could well be the last … Continue reading
B-BBC’s Alan observes; Funny how the BBC can always remember this from 20 years ago in 1991 from Norman Lamont: ‘Rising unemployment and the recession have been the price that we have had to pay to get inflation down. That price is well worth paying.’ but have so far managed to ignore this from Labour: ‘One of Ed Miliband’s closest allies has described rising unemployment and inflation as ‘an orgasmic … Continue reading
The Trade Unions bankroll the Labour Party. In a big way. (I have a small article on the topic published here ) Today finally tackled the burning issue this morning here. Comrade Billy Hayes was on and I thought it was very insipid interview. He was allowed to avoid dealing with the fact that the minority of UK employees who DO belong to a trade union (29%) overwhelmingly work in the Public … Continue reading
Monday morning and best to start the week with a brand new shiny open thread! The floor is yours, as ever, let’s be hearing from you!
Biased BBC contributor Hippiepooter sent me this most excellent link to a Delingpole article on his encounter with Richard Bacon. “Bacon, remember, has recently been fighting a public battle against the various internet trolls(especially on Twitter) who have made his life hell. Had he bothered to read Watermelons and got as far as chapter ten – They Don’t Like It Up ‘Em – he would have seen catalogued in some detail … Continue reading
