# 102 - WAR - Common Fisheries Policy

Today I received the following e-mail from Ashley Mote ex-UKIP MEP:-

BBC ‘Forgets’ EU Role in Fishing Scandal.

BBC South news on the evening of Friday 3^rd June
included a short report from the south coast about local fishermen being forced
to throw good, freshly-caught fish back into the sea because their quotas did
not allow them to be landed for sale.

The report centred around complaints to the Tory MP for South Dorset, Richard Drax, himself a former BBC South news reporter. He doubtless was the source of the ‘story’ – such as it was.

Several fishermen gave interviews. Drax proclaimed that an investigation by
fellow Westminster MPs was in hand, implying that it was on his initiative.

By a truly extraordinary feat of news management and
editing the BBC managed to ensure that the entire report failed to mention the
root cause of such a grotesque and monstrous waste of perfectly good fo

No explanation whatsoever was offered. The well-known and indisputable fact that EU
regulations were the direct and only cause, about which the UK can do precisely
nothing, was never mentioned. Worse, the
story was broadcast as ‘news’, when this scandalous state of affairs and damage
to our fishing industry is now decades old.

It is impossible to believe that neither Drax nor any
fisherman mentioned the EU in their interviews.
The omission can only have been calculated and deliberate news
mismanagement by the BBC.

For the record the BBC continues to benefit from
substantial soft financial ‘investments’ by the European Investment Bank and
from the generous ‘free’ hospitality of the European Parliament and the
European Commission in Brussels. Details have been on my website for
years.

# 101 - WAR - BBC admits its ageist and anti-Christian!

So the BBC is ageist and anti-Christian according to a survey it carried out on itself!

The report conducted as part of the 'Diversity Strategy' involved some 4500 people and some staff. Some viewers still beleived the BBC has a Left- wing or 'liberal bias' and that 'positive discrimination' was still a 'notable' problem with the BBC's recruitment process.

A BBC spokesman said " The BBC does not have an anti-Christian bias. We have strict guidelines on impartiality, including religious perspectives, and Christian programming forms the majority and the cornerstone of our religion and ethical output."

The trouble is the BBC may well have strict guidelines to follow but thy don't follow them as their bias, in so many areas, is in their own DNA.

# 100 -WAR - FIFA

For two nights now the BBC has led on the corruption in FIFA ignoring far more important stories proving that another of the BBC's biases is their preference to dumb down their broadcasts in favour of the lowest common denominator.

I'm not saying that this story shouldn't be covered, not that I personally care one jot, but that it should be covered as a footnote at the end of the news.

The dumbed down BBC no longer sets the standard for broadcasting but follows what it thinks the sheeple want!

# 099 -WAR - News at Ten Thursday 19th May.

On an item on the possibility of an oil spill off Scotland, as a result of increased oil exploration, the oil spill cause by the tanker 'MV Braer' was mentioned. However NO mention was made that the oil spill dispersed naturally very quickly. See link.

The last item of the news that night was about a film director at the Cannes film festival claiming to be a Nazi.

As the camera's went back to Fiona Bruce she was visibly shacking her head as a if to say I certainly don't approve of that.

More bias from the institutionally bias BBC.

#098- WAR - Foreign Aid Programme

You cannot have missed in the news over the last couple of days that this not very Tory Government, under our Dave, is planning to increase our Foreign Aid budget and enshrine in law that we must pay 0.7% of our Gross National Income on it.

The BBC has of course covered this story but their bias, that they believe our Dave is basically right, has been there for all with eyes to see. On the news and Newsnight there has been NO serious attempt to actually interview anyone with the knowledge and authority to argue that "despite our noble intentions, aid does not solve problems it just makes them worse" so wrote Ian Birrell(former speechwriter for David Cameron) in the good old Daily Mail today.

The Guardian reading luvies of the BBC would be instinctively pro foreign aid so would never set up a fair unbiased debate on the issue.

This proves once again that the BBC is still institutionally bias.

#097 - WAR - the new BBC Trust Chairman.

Here is what MP Philip Davies had to say about Chris Patten the new BBC Trust Chairman. Incidently he was the ONLY member of the Commons Culture, Media and Sport select committee who failed to support Lord Patten's appointment:-

"Chris patten is a typical establishment figure. He was always going to be a safe pair of hands, he wasn't going to upset the cosy situation the BBC finds itself in and he was going to be another cheerleader for the BBC rather than somebody who would be tough on them.

Appointing him was a step backwards because whereas the BBC has started to acknowledge in the past their impartiality on issues like Europe,climate change and the Middle East hasn't been all it should have been , Lord Patten has made it perfectly clear that he thinks the BBC's impartiality is beyond reproach and that they don't need to make any changes whatsoever to what they do.

To me that's a completely unacceptable starting point for a new chairman of the BBC Trust. If he thinks everything's hunky dory, what on earth does he want the job for? It is just the kind of establishment appointment that the BBC doesn't need."

Here here to that and sadly, as a result, the BBC will continue pumping out its bias unchecked.

# 096 - WAR - BBC bias on AV vote.

Tim Luckhurst who is Professor of Journalism a the University of Kent writes in the 'Mail on Sunday' today and has this to say in para 10 of his article as to - Why the Liberal elite get it so spectacularly wrong.:-

The AV Referendum has given this country a forceful reminder of something many intelligent, hardworking adults in towns, villages and suburbs across the land have long known. Policies and proposals that are treated as pure wisdom inside soi-disant 'progressive' bastions such as university common rooms, small-circulation newspapers* and the BBC are anathema to millions of Britons. And this silent majority is, very reasonably, fed up with being told that it is wrong.

* By this I assume he is referring to the Guardian which is the Bible to all BBC types

# 095 - WAR - Yet more biasfrom our BBC!

I do often wonder when the institutional bias of the BBC will end? Year after year we get official reports commenting on the BBCs bias added to which retiring BBC journalists go to print to point out how they observed this bias at first hand. So two more examples form the Daily Mail this week. 1. Appearing on BBC London's News on Sunday , in African dress, Devon Thomas, who is described as Chair of the 30th Anniversary Brixton Retrospective, said the 1981 riots should be called an 'uprising', explaining: 'In the same way as the people of Egypt and Tunisia were being suppressed and rose up, that is what happened here'. The BBC allowed this pathetically self-deluding statement to be broadcast uncontested. 2. After monitoring coverage of the AV campaign the No2AV claims in a formal complaint to the BBC that the pro-AV movement are interviewed without the opposing view being expressed and points out the BBC has been seduced by the celebrity backers like Eddie Izzard and Kriss Akabusi. a BBC spokesman of course rejected this complaint. The BBC is bias to its core.

# 094 - WAR - The usual bias again.

1. Radio 4 World at 1 yesterday. The BBC reporter was interviewing an African Union spokesman about the situation in The Ivory Coast. The opening question was - "What the African Union was doing about it" The reply which was allowed to pass was " You know we are very concerned about what is happening!" Question not answered and no follow up - just imagine if this had been a Tory being interviewed would they have been treated so lightly!!! 2. Announcement on Radio 4 for a new programme told us that because a freedom of information request had revealed no street parties had been yet booked for the Royal Wedding the BBC would be hosting a programme on whether the Royal Family was still valued. Well of course the pro republican BBC never misses a trick to run down our monarchy. The BBC is SO bias they simply don't realise that virtually every broadcast is now bias in part or completely.

# 093 - WAR - Another BBC reporter finds his voice.

Isn't it typical that once a BBC reporter has his or her pension in the bag they suddenly find their voice. Another to join the line of BBC reporters who have seen the light is Mr Michael Buerk who claims the BBC is bias to its core and confesses that the Guardian is read as the BBC's Bible. If you don't like the BBC's bias output then don't pay your TV licence. I don't!
