What’s remarkable about the BBC is the way in which their instinctive regard for Labour manifests itself even in the most innocent items. Take the item at 8.22am on how devolution has affected the UK. The BBC invite Peter Ackroyd on to discuss his latest history of England. Who then do they choose to balance the discussion? Yes, Labour MP Tristram Hunt who is also – lest we forget – … Continue reading
I’m sure you will be tuning in to “Class Ceiling”…it’s on Radio 4 @ 9am. “Polly Toynbee explores the ever-more-pressing question of how possible it is to move up through British society. Who gets to break the ‘class ceiling’?” They DO love Polly, don’t they and who better to cover this “ever pressing” issue in an impartial and considered manner? Our money, spent wisely.

I listened to Jeremy Bowen being interviewed from his perch on Tripoli this morning on Today (8.10am). One of the issues being covered was what united the “rebels”. Jeremy came back with the official BBC meme that it is a shared hatred of Gadaffi that united them.

“The BBC’s lack of self awareness, or its solid brass neck, is apparent in this piece about one of its new stars Professor Brian Cox…. ‘Prof Cox said the BBC had put science centre stage and had been rewarded with high ratings and huge interest. The Wonders of the Universe presenter said public service broadcasting had a “very important” role to play in changing the direction of society.” Fair enough … Continue reading

I am advised by a Biased BBC contributor that Jeremy Bowen is doing his best to discredit Israel as usual….Israelis have no interest in peace, Israelis want the Arab dictators to stay in power and don’t support democracy in the Arab world…..missing out the probability that democracy isn’t the likely outcome of the … Continue reading
Wonder if you caught this gem brought to us by the Muslim-adoring BBC? A B-BBC stalwart notes; “The BBC launches yet another attempt to persuade us that even though Muslims think our culture is depraved, our Christian religion heretical and that they have no real intention of integrating in any meaningful way, we should thank them for their contributions to our society. ‘Eating plays a major role in Ramadan, and … Continue reading
It grates on the BBC that Northern Ireland is still British so it never misses the opportunity to pretend otherwise; A Biased BBC reader points out that they have watched a BBC programme entitled “Timothy Spall:Back at Sea.” Spall is travelling by barge all over the U.K and in the episode screened on 24th August on BBC 4 he sails from the Isle of Man into Bangor Marina. Bangor is … Continue reading

Now he has turned his attention to crime drama, saying there are too … Continue reading
