I know you’ve been talking about the topic over on the Open Thread but I couldn’t help but notice a/ Just how EASY a ride comrade Brendan Barber got on Today this morning and b/ how blatantly pro-Trade Union this page is. Just look at the headline email under the main story… I’ve never been a member of a union but I will certainly be joining any demonstrations the TUC … Continue reading
Did you see that the BBC will use up to 400 staff to cover the Pope’s visit to the UK, more staff than it used to cover the World Cup. Given the loathing of Pope Benedict by the BBC, I’ll be surprised if none of the 400 try to make a citizen’s arrest! Also, in this age of austerity, good to see the BBC does not hold back on these … Continue reading

This was sent to me from a Biased BBC reader. I think he picks up on several great points. It concernsLaura Trevelyan on‘From our own correspondent’ 11.9.10 “….she reports from New York on the controversy surrounding the Ground Zero Mosque but presents it solely from the Muslim’s perspective except for a relative of a 9/11 victim who supports the building of the Mosque. (amazing that 70% of Americans don’t want … Continue reading
Further to Robin’s post, The Sunday Programme, presented by pouting Suzanna Reid, further puts the boot into the Roman Catholic Church by asking the question “Is the Catholic Church obsessed by sex”? Surely it would be more accurate to ask if the BBC is obsessed by sex? It strikes me that the BBC is up in arms about any Institutions which promote Christian values and which, gasp, might even take the … Continue reading
Can you imagine what would happen if the BBC greeted a visit by a leading figure from the Muslim world with a poll about whether the teachings of the said imam were relevant, believed or liked by a sample of 500 UK Muslims? What would the questions be? Do you believe that those who become human bombers are granted access to an endless supply of virgins? Or, should Iranian women … Continue reading
I’m sure you’ll all be sorry to hear that our old friend Scott Matthewman of luvvie paper The Stage has just about had enough of us: Well Scott, nutty as it can sometimes get here, at least we don’t look at Islamofascist terrorists and think, “Hmm, fancy a bit of that!” “Do me like I’m hundreds of innocent New York civilians, Faisal. And then cut my throat like the bitch … Continue reading
I know this is not a political blog as such, since it is BBC bias we oppose, but I didn’t want the 9th anniversary of the Islamist attack on the USA to go without comment. You see not only is it nine years ago since that dreadful day, but B-BBC readers will remember that just a few days later, BBC Question Time reached a new LOW with the baiting of … Continue reading
James Delingpole’s Telegraph article about Fidel Castro’s unexpected about-turn set me thinking. The magnitude of recent events – Hezbollah’s ominous 15,000 rockets, Jeremy Bowen’s cosy chat with Gideon Levy, the rape/race case that was rape not race, the Al Quds march, various portentous happenings that BBC viewers were spared from troubling themselves with, some annoying personal things – dodgy internet connection, insomnia, work-related stress, hiccoughs, a huge bluebottle flying near … Continue reading
