If there is one kind of Conservative that the BBC almost like, it’s the sort that are Conservative-in-name-only. Take Tim Yeo, please. This blustering buffoon was on the BBC this morning to discuss why some sort of subsidy for nuclear power was sadly inevitable. Naturally the BBC does not approve of any form of subsidy to this one form of clean energy whilst favouring as much as possible for windfarms … Continue reading
What better way to start the week on the BBC with another chance to discuss that hardy perrenial, should drugs be legalised? There’s a discussion at 8.33am based on a new report from the left-wing Demos propaganda unit. The essence of the debate is a remarkably mad idea- namely that local Councils and trading standard officers determine what is legal and what is not! You’d have to be ON drugs … Continue reading
Anyone catch Sheikh Jeremy al Bowen on Today this morning? With Palestinians exercising their right to return to violence at any available opportunity. Bowen was quick to declare this is all part of the “Arab Spring” and that the US would have to “do something” about Israel. The BBC’s treatment of Israel is beyond deplorable and we have to wonder WHY it is that the State Broadcaster does everything possible … Continue reading
I can remember vividly Britain’s last major sustained power cuts back in the 1970s, the consequence of maniac Ted Heath’s ham-fisted attempt to take on the all-powerful National Union of Mineworkers under the wily Joe Gormley. The three-day week created untold misery and inconvenience. Stumbling about by candlelight reinforced forever for me the benefits of modern technology. Today, our lunatic government seems totally determined to pursue “low carbon” policies that … Continue reading
11:53 am. Driver in Tel Aviv Truck Rampage shouted “Death to Jews”Israeli forces ‘fire on Palestinians’ near Gaza border * One of these stories is not reported by your BBC. A large red banner proclaiming ‘Breaking News’ adorns the BBC Middle East page. This advertises the latter story, whereas at the time of writing there is nothing at all about the former. So. The BBC was interested in Israel’s reaction … Continue reading
It’s one of Nicky Campbell’s “Big Questions” this morning. On the panel to help us understand this is BBC favourite Salam Yaqoob, leader of Respect. Might I suggest that the BBC re-phrase the question “Do Muslims have a problem with Britain”? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Chris Patten is now ensconced as BBC chairman, and – I know from sources – he has already shown that he will defend his new paymaster to the hilt, telling MPs at a briefing meeting on Thursday that he believes that the corporation’s EU coverage is perfectly balanced and does not need to change. Perhaps he should have read this before thus pontificating. The Tory MP Philip Davies, a member … Continue reading

This was sent my way and thought it needed sharing;“I dont know if anyoneheard this on the Nicky Campbell Show ? The subject was Max Mosley and his privacy caseat the EU court. The program is supposed to be a public phone-in but to myrecollection only 2 members of the public got on air for about 20 seconds only.The rest of the program was taken up by so called “expertcontributors”. … Continue reading
Pleased to see that Biased BBC gets a mention here in the always excellent Newsbusters with regard to the behaviour of a Question Time audience on the topic of Bin Laden’s exit of planet Earth; By total contrast, when Douglas Murray, the associate director of the Henry Jackson Society, told the BBC’s flagship program Question Time last Thursday that he felt “elated” at the news, he was booed, heckled, and … Continue reading
