Well, I was on the BBC this morning to make some points in support of Lord Young. It was the Nolan Show. Unhappily it was a fact free zone other than those I tried to make but with Stephen interrupting and challenging me whilst allowing Maguire a free run it was frustrating. The meme is that Conservatives = heartless and evil. It’s a pity that Cameron has thrown Young to … Continue reading

Everything that the EU does is mired in corruption, illogic and waste. Billions are being spent on recycling and CO2 measures, even thought they have zero beneficial effect and are the bureaucratic symbols of a jackboot centralised dictatorship of poilitical elites. The worst part of it all, of course, is the Common Agricultural Policy, a sharp-practice, mafia-like scam dreamed up by de Gaulle to protect French farmers in the 1950s, … Continue reading
The prescience of BBC reporters knows no bounds. Here Michael Fitzpatrick, the latest “science and technology” guru on the web team, tells us in no uncertain terms that the world’s aviation industry as we know it is doomed. He intones/drones: Facing a fate shared by other fossil fuel guzzlers, the jet will have to find alternatives to burning kerosene if it is to survive beyond the middle of the next … Continue reading
Question Time tonight comes from Swansea. It was granted city status in 1969 to mark Prince Charles’s investiture as the Prince of Wales so the odds on a snippy BBC-friendly republican question are high considering recent wedding news. The panel tonight are mostly anonymous and need to be introduced. We have the familiar faces of Chris Grayling and Kelvin MacKenzie, who are joined by Carwyn Jones (Welsh First Minister) Kirsty Williams (Leader Welsh LibDems), Nerys Evans (a random … Continue reading
Prolific blogger Elder of Ziyon provides invaluable information about the Middle East. If you miss a day, you’re lost. His article on Saturday 13th, now several scrolling miles away, linked to this, for me, heart-sinking news about a new film in a popular but notoriously propagandist series of Turkish films entitled “Valley of the Wolves.” It is based on the Mavi Marmara incident, Turkish version. Elder’s and Michael Tottens’s articles … Continue reading
One of the BBC’s main climate change propagandists, James Painter (whose work I reported here,) has prepared a so-called survey (funded by Reuters) on the media’s coverage of the Copenhagen climate change shindig last year, which – it seems – was astonishingly attended by more than 4,000 journalists. His main purpose – as befits a seasoned corporation econut crusader – is to bewail the fact that in 400 articles surveyed, … Continue reading
Interesting to see how the BBC treats the engagement of Prince William and Kate Middleton. In the prime time slot just after the 8am news on Today, the BBC invited Lady Antonio Fraser and Stephen Haseler on to discuss the event. Haseler sneered at the event in venomous republican style, thus speaking on behalf of the Corporation. Previous reports this morning zeroed in on the likely cost of the wedding … Continue reading
I have just spent two days at a conference about “ethical” investment. The reason is that I am trying to raise money for a charity that is aiming to improve services for deprived children. Thus the aim of the Good Deals event seemed laudable enough – to bring those with funds (banks, trusts, etc)in contact with humble supplicants like myself. There were many senior figures there such as the head … Continue reading
[Click images to enlarge] Do you suffer from a sense of cringing left-liberal guilt that is almost beyond parody? Are left-wing columnists and newspapers your essential reading? [Read More…] Do you think that private enterprise is bad and that what society needs is bigger government paid for by higher taxes? (The Evil Tesco link is to this story about the supermarket chain building houses. The bastards!Update – should’ve pointed out … Continue reading
