OBAMA THE OLEAGINOUS

BBC doing all it can to present the floundering of Obama as Presidential. Yesterday Obama sought to compare the Gulf Oil Spill with 9/11 (BBC seems to think that was a natural point of comparison) and today he now seeks to use this eco-disaster to advance his green agenda. What is it the Dems say – you should never miss the opportunity a good crisis provides? Rather than ask challenging questions … Continue reading →

GILDED PENSIONS…

The BBC picks up on the soaring and absolutely unaffordable costs of having to fund Public sector pensions. So, who better to get on to discuss this issue than Unison’s Dave Prentice who instantly takes the conversation off the tracks. Evan Davies tried to steer the conversation on topic but Dave Spart was having none of it and he was allowed to waffle. It’s going to be a big issue … Continue reading →

BBC DOES BLOODY REVISIONISM

Today is the zenith for Irish republican propaganda and the BBC is keen to play a part. The Saville Report is published today and the BBC reporters in “Derry” (No hint of bias there, folks) are there to join in the British Army bashing contest. They interviewed IRA Commander Martin McGuinness (the butcher in charge of terrorism in Londonderry at that time ) and never asked ANY challenging questions about … Continue reading →

Conning the World

After blanket one-sided coverage of the flotilla fiasco, Tim Franks hangs on to his job long enough to criticise Israel’s drop-in-the ocean attempt at redressing the balance. The song ‘We Con the World’ has already been banned by Youtube, so he needn’t have gone to the trouble of reporting it, and anything else said in Israel’s defence, as though it came from ‘Israel’s massive P.R. machine’ or some such. In … Continue reading →

In it’s zeal to create the impression that the world and his wife wants the naval blockade of Gaza lifted, the BBC gushes that “The blockade on the Gaza Strip “must be broken”, the head of the Arab League Amr Moussa has said.” Odd then how they are less than effusive about sharing the news that Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has told Obama that the naval blockade must be … Continue reading →

Nicky Campbell is on holidays (Spending more time with his ego?) so his “Big Question” TV programme is presented by Kay Adams. She led a discussion entitled “Does the Queen deserve a pay rise” (last one being 20 years ago, but the BBC doesn’t do detail when it suits them). Adams suggested that the Queen might try cycling and open up her Palaces. Her Caledonian hatred of the Monarchy oozes … Continue reading →

IF WE COULD TALK TO THE TALIBAN…

A BBC meme is that it is always good to talk to terrorists. It doesn’t matter where they are and it doesn’t matter what they have done – the narrative is that “talk-talk” is the progressive way forward for all enlightened people. On Today this morning, I was stunned to listen a BBC contributor in the form of Conservative MP Adam Holloway declare that “we need to bring as much … Continue reading →

It’s Not About You; it’s about me!

Before launching into his valedictory piece on FOOC, Tim Franks confided that he disapproves of solipsistic journalism, which he helpfully defined for us as the narcissistic ramblings of the ‘me me me’ variety, but he asked us to excuse his indulgence, just this once. Announcing his resignation as BBC Jerusalem correspondent, he blamed his difficulties on being both a Jew and a journalist. He said he gets accusations of bias … Continue reading →

BLOODY BBC…

For decades, Irish republicans have been assiduously cultivating the myth that bad and evil British soldiers deliberately murdered 13 “peace activists” in Londonderry back in 1972. The “Bloody Sunday” inquiry Number Two conclusions Number Two come out early next week and the BBC are doing their best to keep the narrative going by repeating their “Bloody Sunday” play (Part Two today). Expect to hear the BBC get stuck into the … Continue reading →
