It's so blatent now I think anyone who doesn't see the anti-coalition bias of the BBC in it's coverage of the global and political economic crisis that was created by the Anglo-Saxon (growth through borrowing) Model of Bush and Blair/Brown, for what it truly is, really shouldn't be allowed to vote on grounds of severe mental incapacity.

The Hester row rumbles on..and on..and on..Seems the media and yes you the BBc are so concerned about the details of peoples pay packages. Yes that included me with my 18 years of civil service pension, I'm sure it won't change my lifestyle if I live long enough to get it. Where as other stories just vanish. They are so concerened with the banks but don't seem the slightest bit interested in Virgin Money buying up part of Northern Rock at a knock down price. So lunchtime and we are off back to university fees (again) "THE MAXIMUM IN ENGLAND IS UP TO £9K" numbers of students are down blah blah blah. On the Hestergate issue the BBc are pushing the view that Millibland should be congratulating himself with the outcome, I'm not sure why. Answers on a postcard to ...

NOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!!! Hestergate is now gone but it's back to Fred the shred. I'm no fan of RBS in fact I have a complaint about them running with the financial ombudsman. However the BBc reporting line they are to blame (well helped trigger the global economic meltdown) is I think stretching the facts.
Stil no more news on refinery in administration "SHORTAGES" "PRICE RISES"..or indeed a reply to my complaint.

Still it goes on I can't quote this word for word as I was on my way out to de ice the car. On breakfast one of the reporters made a statement to the effect that some considered Fred Goodwin to be the figure head of the boom that led to the bust. Err ok? Really who considers this. The midday news decided to displace the never ending story of bankers to story 2. The main news? Yes that some of the followers of the relegion of peace were planning to massacre innocent men, women and children. For some reason the BBc declared that "BRITISH islamists" were behind the plot. Not just muslims then? Another day more of the BBc's agenda,

Ive just had a look on the Biased BBc site. Someone there has posted a link to Sky News and BBc news on the story of the followers of the religion of peace. BBc goes for the description "men" Sky doesn't. If anyone from the BBc reads this- please stop using the description "men" in these stories, you are fooling no-one. We know exactly what these would be murderous scum are.

It's a point that's often made, and I posted a similar reference here just a couple of days ago. The one good thing about it is that because it is such a contentious issue, that many people have personal thoughts and feelings about, it is more likely to make them aware of BBC bias on the issue, and raise the likelihood of perceiving other areas of the BBC agenda.

Ok 10 o'clock news- so what's the headline story. I would have gone for muslims plan murder on the streets of UK. But no a riot at a football in Egypt sorry but I couldn't care less about a football match in Egypt I don't live there, still an excuse to push the big story down the list.

If you don't have time to trawl the web or go hunting on teletext in the hunt for good news concerning the UK economy don't bother tuning into any of the BBC's main bulletins, they give priority to bad news. However, if like me, you are prepared to set your alarm for 6AM, the business report in the first hour of the Today programme actually did allow a couple of sentences on the subject of the unexpected 'vast improvement' in the UK's manufacturing reported earlier this week to slip out. www.guardian.co.uk/business/2012/feb/01/uk-manufacturing-rebound-recession-avertedAfter that there was no further mention made as the NUJ propagandists focused instead on the apparent Indian choice of French fighters over the UK's Typhoon which they projected as being a personal failure by their bitter enemy Prime Minister David Cameron. www.thehindubusinessline.com/industry-and-economy/article2851191.eceThis fascinating story has now also been kicked into touch, presumably because of their fears of upsetting the millions of Indians now resident here and a possible public backlash against India in the UK. No duty to impartially inform their licence payers, just an endless persecution of the NUJ's enemy, the current UK government, and grovelling concern for the delicate sensitivities of the people the BBC cares about the most, the immigrant communities they seem to expect will dutifully vote for Labour in every election to come.

No mention of course of the Indian deal with Sukhoi for even more advanced aircraft either. When I complained, well on one of the occasions I complained about aid to India specifically mentioning these arms deals the question went unanswered. On the few seconds I last watched Questionable time I did see SADiq khan telling the audience that aid to India saved childrens lives someone in the audience for once was kicking off about the Indian space program. Anyone else besides me remember Blue streak? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Streak_missile

As I’m suffering from man-flu (well a slight cold) I didn’t post this yesterday. The roundabout of news on breakfast spins and lands on –banker’s bonus culture again. In a somewhat baffling report they decided to illustrated bonus payments, I think. So we are treated to a film of a man cutting holes in reinforced concrete for which he can qualify for bonus payments.. Then they film a director, at least I think it was, telling us how she doesn’t agree with the size of bankers bonus payments. Ok besides being a free advert for this company if you want holes drilled in concrete what was all about? As usual no facts are given such as if this director gets a bonus and the ratio of her pay to the workers or the turnover of the company. In my experience bonus payments tend to be used to keep basic pay low and are subject to moving goal post syndrome on how you qualify for them.

What is written all over the BBC News editorialising coverage are the not even subliminal messages:- For example John Humphry's interview with Steven Hester; www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01bm0nv/Today_08_02_2012/ 'Why should you earn more than say a nurse?' Private sector- EVIL, NOT TO BE TRUSTED ESPECIALLY WITH ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE NHS. Bankers- TOTALLY AND SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS. Bonuses- ANY FORM OF PERFORMANCE RELATED PAY IS EVIL AND MUST BE STOPPED. The Rich- EVEN IF YOU ARE ONE OF ONLY A HANDFUL OF PEOPLE IN THE WORLD WITH THE EDUCATION, QUALIFICATION, EXPERIENCE AND BRILLIANCE TO DO A JOB VITAL TO THE NATIONAL INTEREST, OR THE NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL ECONOMY FOR INSTANCE YOU SHOULD NOT EARN ANY MORE THAN SAY A NURSE ON AN NHS WARD - UNLESS YOU ARE A FOOTBALLER, POP SINGER, ENTERTAINER, OR A BBC EMPLOYEE! Stephen Hester took a basket case bank with debts of over a trillion pounds. Last year this bank was able to lend UK businesses over £30 BILLION. www.rbs.co.uk/business/banking/starting-rbs-home/starting-rbs/helping-uk-businesses.ashxTo me he has done the economic equivalent of turning water into wine, and fully deserves his remuneration (on which he will be fully taxed as will most of what he uses his wealth to invest in). I am ashamed of the way he has been treated by the leftist media and gutter press and the gullible people who appear to believe the dumbed down garbage they spout.

I notice in the article you link to Carl that the BBC give the names of the alleged abusers, which tells us that they are at least Asian, the picture they use of the abusers is this one Makes any kind of identification a bit difficult The Daily Mail have found some other pictures to use. Do you think the BBC are trying to avoid something here?

Yes. You knew it couldn't be long the breakfast roundabout of news comes to a halt back on alcohol. Blah blah blah we've heard it all before. Strain on NHS blah blah blah. With the Goverment report out next month I wait with anticipation for this one to come round soon. I was watching last night the story of Rangers football club going into administration. not that I'm interested in football. However when they said on the story "how did they get into this situation?" I though yes how did it happen. Did they spend too much on the wages of the players or what. The in depth answer was the previous owner splashed the cash-err thanks that cleared it up for me.

Nice to see the crowd demonstrating against the health secretary. I did notice the dubious camera angles which made it impossible to actually see how many here were demonstrating. Again it looked like the Socialist Don't Worker Party rent a mob- but I could be wrong. The BBC finally run the alledged muslim pedo story how many days after i complained? I note they used the words asian pakastani but I diudn't hear the word muslim. Wonder why they have chosen to run this now?

I don't know if the NHS reforms will improve NHS service or not. However I do know of 2 people mis-diagnosed including a close friend who was told she would be in a wheelchair in a few years - it was wrong. Someone left in the corridor of a hospital when the person wheeling them around buggered off without telling anyone. Another person I know was told if they had more than one issue they would have to make a seperate appointment with the doctor for each issue depite them being told an appointment would take 2 Months. However I'm sure things could be worse but they don't seem to be that brilliant at the moment.

Ahh yes the link for the "mob" "surrounding" what his face wasn't what was shown on the news at the time I couldn't find that. However the BBc are as good as estate agents when choosing the angle to film/ take photographs. If you look they will often spread the "crowd" out to make it look bigger or often you will see a tight shot with a large number immediatly behind the presenter. Or maybe I'm just paranoid, see if any one else spots it.

I see on the NHS story link you provide Carl, that the BBC make no mention of the fact that this 'pensioner', as they refer to her, is in fact a retired NHS union rep. I also from the clip that the BBC message to the public is 'the more obnoxious you are to the coalition government, the more air time you will get to back your cause'.

i just turned on the 6 O'clock news. Yes RBS "STATE FUNDED" yes bonus payments. The BBc asks when will the taxpayer get their money back. Ok so I've paid tax so that's funded the Army so can I borrow the tank I must have paid for. Seriously though when is the STATE FUNDED BBc going to take complaints seriously? Bored with the whole thing just how long have they been banging on about this I had an E-mail from some one I know supporting the Sit in in America losers and the usuall dum coments about capitalism. Ok I thought so if there are no banks how do your get your dole money matey? I don't suppose he had given that aspect a seconds thought or that he can get a free basic bank account - I don't know talk about turkeys at Christmas.

Carl I do believe this was the week when across BBC News the NUJ decided to pull out all the stops and attack the government with everything and anything going.
Listening to the major news programmes like Today and Newsnight it was impossible for one not to believe that the BBC was now fully committed to the downfall of the elected government by any means, fair or foul, honest or dishonest. Last night after Newsnight they had worn me down and I'd decided not to bother posting here again. The onslaught of their bigotry and negativity had succeeded as planned.
Funnily enough it was the Wark entity that made be change my mind. Last night she was scathingly interviewing these four incredibly polite business-people about how much more they earned than their lowest paid workers. Apparently they shouldn't be earning more than 75 times more according to some self-appointed arbiter of social justice.
Sadly at least until I could take no more and had to switch off not one of them thought to ask the Wark if the BBC would pass the 75 times limit test, or indeed any Premier League football club!
They were conflating again of course this time conflating the RBS bonuses with the freeze on public service workers wages. Over on Sky at least, Hester gave a brilliant interview that the BBC wouldn't have broadcast as he told the truth. He reminded the viewers that New Labour and Sir Fred had left RBS with debts of over a TRILLION pounds! He said they were now down by some 700 billion now but that was still greater than the entire national debt of Greece!!
So yes, why should these brilliant people who's success can be judged by whether or not the global economy has failed or not, or whether or not we are carrying our cash around in wheelbarrows, be paid any more than a council refuse collector!
