Anyone catch John Sopel attacking Baroness Warsi on the Politics Show? The prelude to this AMBUSH was an interview with a series of Conservative figures unhappy with the Lib-Dems, designed to sustain the BBC meme that the Coalition is profoundly split. I am sure we can expect a lot more of this and can compare it to the dewy-eyed excitement accompanying Red Ed’s coronation last week. Click through to read … Continue reading
Interesting report here from the BBC on the “One Nation” rally that has just taken place in Washington DC. They don’t tell us how many turned up but they do emphasise on several occasions that the rally was organised by “left-wingers” and that it featured “left wing activists”. Not only that but that this was all about rekindling support for Obama! And there was me thinking from so many previous … Continue reading
..or English! The dreadful Sunday Morning Live programme with pouting Suzanne Reid posits “Should Immigrants be made to speak English?” You can guess where the BBC is coming from on this one! It picks up on the story of an English girl who has fallen in love with a Palestinian (natch) but the poor bloke might not get into the UK because he can’t be bothered to try and speak … Continue reading
Following last week’s full-frontal assault on Coalition minister Vince Cable, this week’s Question Time saw another Coalition minister, Grant Shapps, fall victim to a rampaging bullock, being questioned and interrupted by David Dimbleby far more than any of the other guests (even David Starkey). The figures for this will appear in the comments field below. Well, you might say, both Mr Shapps and Dr Cable are government spokesmen, so David … Continue reading
“The problem is, of course, Jewish settlements on Palestinian land.”No. The problem is not, of course, Jewish settlements on Palestinian land. Define “Palestinian land”, Wyre, please. What’s the history, BBC? Do tell. I have a sneaking suspicion you want us to think that there is a racial group called “Palestinians” who have had “their” land stolen and violated by Jews! It does seem that this “International Community” that you’re so … Continue reading
Friday arrives and so does the latest OPEN THREAD. Something to say about the BBC bias? Click through to read and contribute comments on this post.
Brian Cox on QT, Tony Robinson on TW afterwards…..who the blazes wants to hear the views of these pompous, overrated, superannuated lefty luvvies? Actors have to be, by default, self centred, vain, bitchy and ruthless to get on – they make bankers appear furry bunnies in comparison, particularly in the C list division inhabited by the likes of Cox and co. Robinson speculating about swivel eyed Ed leading us into … Continue reading
The extremist mindset of the boys and girls of the BBC is laid bare in an exchange of letters between a few highly-paid BBC “stars” who do not want to strike next week and those who do. Those “stars” – led by the likes of James Naughtie and Jeremy Paxman (paid, of course, massive salaries out of your money) – say that the NUJ strike, aimed at blacking out Dave … Continue reading
The greenie news editors at the BBC salivate every time they hear about plans to build a nuclear power station. It’s their chance to create more anti-development propaganda. The subject matter today is Sri Lanka, one of the poorer countries on this earth, with a GDP per head of around £3,500. They desperately need cheap energy to make their lives more comfortable and to generate more wealth. So when the … Continue reading
Question Time tonight comes from Manchester, which comes from an old Celtic word meaning “shaped like a breast”. As random trivia, the first edition of Top of the Pops was broadcast from a converted church in the city on New Year’s Day 1964. On the panel we have Grant Shapps, Simon Hughes, Diane Abbott, David Starkey and an actor called Brian Cox (who you will all remember played Daphne Moon’s father in … Continue reading
