The BBC’s quest to find climate change hype knows no bounds. Here, in alleged news about the collapse of Mayan civilisation, the BBC reporter has constructed his story so that its focus is a warning that the cause was drought. He adds: The reconstructed droughts are similar in extent to some predictions for the near future of the same region as a result of climate change. “There are differences too, … Continue reading

B-BBC contributor Alan notes; “The BBC are stillingtrying to spin immigration figures and downplay the extent of immigration tothis country despite Mark Thompson’s admission that they had not covered thesubject properly in years past. The Telegraph reports the figures from government based on the yearly periodJune to June….June 2010 they were 235,000, by June 2011 they were250,000….so definitely a rise when comparing years. The BBC has decided to take a different starting … Continue reading

More importantly, as stories about failed rogue states, Islamist wars, terrorism and piracy reach a crescendo, why doesn’t anyone publicly acknowledge there’s connection between them all?

And in particular, should Israel move against the Mad Mullahs, would the UK … Continue reading
