DESTROYING INNOCENCE

By David Vance | January 12, 2012 - 3:45 pm |October 3, 2012 Sexualising childhood

17 Comments

Interesting story here over on The Mail. “A sex education video produced by the BBC for children as young as nine has been criticised as being ‘like a blue movie’ by an MP who said the material is ‘shattering the innocence of childhood’. The video aims to teach children aged between nine and 11 about growing up, the cycle of life, feelings, family life and friendship. But included in the … Continue reading →

ALWAYS IN THE WRONG

By David Vance | January 12, 2012 - 2:37 pm |January 12, 2012 Rendition

10 Comments

Are these two paragraphs related? First the lead … “British police are to investigate claims that UK secret services helped in the rendition of a man to Libya.” And then… The Metropolitan Police and Crown Prosecution Service said MI5 and MI6 officers would not be charged over separate torture collusion claims Is the BBC disappointed that our secret services have been proven INNOCENT of the crimes that some fevered imaginations … Continue reading →

TAKING THE PROVERBIAL..

The BBC leads its news this morning with the news that the Taliban are “furious” about the video of some US soldiers urinating over the dead bodies of some Taliban terrorists. Sorry, I mean fighters. Have to say I couldn’t care less about what happens to these savages who chose to pick a fight with the US military but the BBC certainly seems vexed about it. Could someone please explain … Continue reading →

FORGOTTEN VOICES

By David Vance | January 12, 2012 - 10:29 am |January 12, 2012 anti UK military, dhimmis, pro Islam

Biased BBC’s Alan points out…“The BBC has revealed that MI5 and MI6 have been ‘cleared’ over allegations of being involved in torture….in other words the allegations by the ‘victims’ are lies. But they make sure you understand that this is only because of lack of evidence…..and so the Security Services are probably guilty of something….if only they had the evidence…but any way something else might be found soon. However evidence is … Continue reading →

THE JOYS OF IMMIGRATION

An annoyed B-BBC reader writes.. “In case anyone missed it, the Victoria Drbyshireshow on 10/01/12 had a typical discussion about the recent report stating that immigration had a negative effect on jobs (only for youths aparently).I did listen to as much as I could stand at the time,immigrants work harder, speak, read and write better than Brits,etc. (Not including journalists and their like obviously). This is to be expected of … Continue reading →

LOACH THE ROACH

By David Vance | January 11, 2012 - 12:43 pm |January 11, 2012 Ken Loach

53 Comments

I see that that Ken Loach was been prominent across the BBC media estate this morning. This is in regard to a government review of the film industry that is expected to recommend that public funding be directed towards projects which are likely to be commercial successes. I heard Loach referring to “Cameron” during a TV interview this morning. I wonder what it is about the Jew-hating anti-American anti-capitalist Loach that … Continue reading →

YOU CAN BANK ON IT!

By David Vance | January 11, 2012 - 12:30 pm |January 11, 2012 Banking, UNIQUE FUNDING

12 Comments

Through the prism of the BBC, the Banks are the bad guys, solely responsible for our financial woes. The role of Labour in bringing about the financial crisis is being sanitised and in fact the Labour Government is presented as being noble if not heroic for bailing out the Banks. But that is far removed from reality. B-BBC contributor Alan makes some interesting points here; “A consistent theme from the BBC, … Continue reading →

Mark Mardell Visits A Jon Huntsman Gathering And Defends The President On The Economy

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 →
