Even Davies was tweeting that “I wonder if an aspirin can help protect people from the Chancellor”? earlier this morning.I cannot recall any of the Labour budgets being undermined in this fashion but it seems the BBC just cannot help themselves when it is a Conservative Chancellor. Stephanie “Two Eds” Flanders … Continue reading
Well well. Turns out that the vicious assassin of those young Jewish children and their teacher, along with the French soldiers, was a Muslim called Mohammed who claims to be associated with an Al Queda affiliate. (It seems his brothers have also been arrested in connection with the killings) The BBC seem crestfallen given that THEY have been expounding the killer was most likely some sort of far-right neo-Nazi extremist driven … Continue reading

However if you wanted to rush to judgement other facts might point in anotherdirection and not towards a far right extremist trying to stir up a … Continue reading
We’ve been getting many reports this week of blog readers not being able to use this site from overseas. The biggest problem is that Comments show up as 0. The problem started a few weeks ago in Spain. Readers from there had a .es extension forced on their blog browsing by Google. This is a strategy by them to localise blogging in order to make country-specific content censorship possible. Google … Continue reading

Biased BBC contributor Alan notes;“You can only wonderwhere all the Muslims have gone from the BBC airwaves……they havevanished….the government starts talking of allowing gay marriage and there isnot a single Muslim voice that I have heard on the BBC.

So BBC D-G Mark Thompson is stepping down from his post in the Autumn. The DT has an article here contemplating who should succeed him. Should it be a woman?
