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
For a rabidly pro EUSSR BBC, any suggestion that border controls be rigourously reintroduced between member states is deeply disturbing. Give this debate a listen if you haven’t already. I was entertained by Naughtie’s alarm that the de facto assertion of National sovereignty could lead to “a mess” whereas to most sane people, Mark Steyn’s aphorism that “United they fall, Divided they might stand” is the logical stance. Note how the … Continue reading
Today brings the “Stop the Debt” public rally to the streets of London. Naturally the BBC, a chief cheerleader for racking up the debt in the first place, was never going to be sympathetic towards this event. On Today, at 8.53am, the BBC gives us Alexie Stalin sorry, I mean Alexei Sayle and Simon Heffer to “debate” the event. This cued up Sayle to engage in a rant about the … Continue reading
