The BBC’s US President editor is in New Hampshire to cover the Republican Primary. “It’s the economy, stupid” is the running gag these days about the number one reason why the President might not be re-elected. Among the elite media, anyway. Much of the rest of the country might be worried about His continued assault on gun rights, poor performance on stopping illegal immigration, the constant class war rhetoric, the … Continue reading →

WHEN PLURALISM IS INVISIBLE..

By David Vance | January 10, 2012 - 7:51 pm |January 10, 2012 Anti Israel all the time

8 Comments

A Biased BBC reader notes; “There has been a small and rather unedifying incident in the Knesset – the Parliament of Israel. Basically, an Israeli MK name of Anastasia Michaeli has thrown a plastic beaker of water over another Israeli MK called Raleb Majadele. She storms out. A security guard gets to his feet rather slowly, and does precisely nothing. Other MKs shout the Hebrew equivalent of “hey, that’s not … Continue reading →

BBC VALUE FOR MONEY

16 Comments

Does the BBC provide value for money? It thinks it does and got Deloittes to provide an “impartial” report that proves this. However a Biased BBC reader who is a professional accountant take issue with what is claimed….THE ECONOMIC IMPACTOF THE BBCFirst I must emphasise that I have only read the executive summary, and brieflyat that, so my comments below may be flawed. I can not afford to spendmuch time … Continue reading →

BRILLIANCE?

By David Vance | January 10, 2012 - 6:38 pm |January 10, 2012 Ed Miliband, john humphrys

14 Comments

Anyone else catch Miliband on with Humphyrs this morning? To be fair to Humphrys, he did challenge Miliband but then again Miliband is so abysmal that even the BBC struggle to make him look good. The interesting bit for me is when Humphrys starts talking about the late Robin Cook who “brilliant” and “everybody” recognised as leader material? (Around 17mins) Really? Isn’t this an instance of John Humphrys admitting that at that … Continue reading →

BBC NEWS PRODUCER WARNS READERS ABOUT "RIGHTWING" MIGRATION WATCH

By DB | January 9, 2012 - 6:14 pm |January 9, 2012 immigration, Jane Bradley

44 Comments

Lefty BBC London news producer Jane Bradley has been doing her lefty thing on Twitter again: Migration Watch responded: Her reply: Except BBC journalists don’t issue warnings on Twitter about left-leaning lobbyists, do they? I shouldn’t have to point this out, but as it’s increasingly clear that Ms Bradley lacks basic common sense and can’t keep her politics to herself, I feel I have to spell it out for her … Continue reading →

A Baised BBC reader notes; “There was anextraordinary interview around 6.15am today with the CEO of Rolls Royce Motorswhich has had a record year, doing particularly well in China. “But surely it’s not a good idea to sell such gas guzzlers”,”Yours cars are out of tune with the times” “Of course, you’renot a British company any more” and so on.

Sir Andrew Green continues to do a fine job over at Migration Watch and he was on the BBC this morning discussing the latest report which suggests that the number of “migrants” working in the UK who were born in Eastern Europe rose by 600,000 since the so-called A8 countries joined the EU in May 2004 while youth unemployment rose by almost 450,000 in the same period.

THOSE IRA TAPES

By David Vance | January 9, 2012 - 12:21 pm |January 9, 2012 pro IRA appeasement

9 Comments

More BBC double standards. They ran an item this morning concerning whether tape recorded confessions of IRA terrorists made at Boston College in the States should be handed over to the Police. There is information in these recordings which allegedly nails Provo boss Gerry Adams so you can imagine the “sensitivity”. The BBC brought on two people to discuss this. One was quangocrat Baroness O’Loan (pro IRA appeasement) and journalist … Continue reading →

In the BBC world, the murder of Stephen Lawrence may well have been the most important killing in the last one hundred years since it “proved” all that “institutional racism” that they lie in bed dreaming about each night.This morning, we were treated to the wisdom of Stephen Lawrence’s best friend Duwayne Brooks – “a man whose life since has been defined by what happened that evening. He was the … Continue reading →
