BBC Boss Tells Left-Wing News Staff “Stop Tweeting”
The Director of BBC News, Helen Boaden, has just sent out this chatty email to all her staff today:
Dear All,
We have had some occasions recently of BBC News staff using social networking sites to share with the world their somewhat controversial opinions on matters of public policy and the future of the BBC. Unsurprisingly, these have been picked up by the wider web and used to discredit the BBC and its impartiality. We have Editorial Guidelines which cover the personal use of the internet …which everyone should observe. We also have brains and judgement which I suggest people fully engage before rushing to communicate. Hx
What she appears to be saying to Beeboids is “keep your opinions to yourself” lest the truth gets out. Yesterday Guido drew attention to the Thatcher-hating, Green-loving, Tory-bashing, anti-Israeli BBC News Editor Rachel Kennedy’s rather candid Twitter-stream of left-wing consciousness. Guido is watching, and the BBC bosses are reading…
UPDATE : The info-graphic below is taken from the www.order-order.com server logs for yesterday. It shows the top ten sources of visitors, notice that the BBC is, after parliament, the second biggest source of visitors, making up the rest is the usual mix; politicos, media hacks, bankers, Oxbridge wannabee politicos and media hacks. Associated Newspapers probably scores higher than News International because the Daily Mail’s Andrew Pierce keeps hitting the “refresh” button. There were some sixty odd thousand visitors yesterday…

We have had some occasions recently of BBC News staff using social networking sites to share with the world their somewhat controversial opinions on matters of public policy and the future of the BBC. Unsurprisingly, these have been 













Hasn’t the horse already bolted here?
Not at all. All my fans agree with what this stupid fucking bitch says. Tweet me up at @mondayisntfunny
Err, you mean Biased BBC is watching, and Guido is reading Biased BBC…
… and giving them full credit.
…to share with the world their somewhat controversial opinions on matters of public policy…
Somewhat!?!?! SOMEWHAT!?!?!?!
Even in the act of faux rebuttal and caution they are blind to the stench of left-wing bias that eminates from this cabal of stinking, Marxist orcs.
Good point.
If Thatch is going to get one, that booby Brown should get one too, and a book started on how he’s gonna croak it.
why can’t i get on newsnight again!!! WAAAAAH!!!!
Even Sky are wall to wall on the negative impact of the cuts.
It’s not working Mr Fawkes.
Of course cuts are going to have negative effects. WTF is your point?
Interesting take on BBC’s 6 am Breakfast tv’s second headline:
‘Half a million civil servants will lose their jobs’.
Yet this is inaccurate: half a million civil service jobs will go which, as Guido put it yesterday is a different thing altogether. The headline conjures an emotive image of half a million sacked and redundant civil servants, which does not have a basis in reality.
They’ll defend it as acceptable journalistic shorthand but this should be challenged; the fact that it’s itself an interpretation – opinion – rather than news itself and has been deliberately chosen as the headline indicates where the natural predisposition of the BBC coverage lies.
It’s what in the old days would have been called ‘spin’.
Any BBC Journalist care to care to defend the corner? Perhaps the one who wrote it?
So why hasn’t this lefty, lezi woman disciplined Kennedy rather than send her a message with a kiss? How many times do the BBC need to be told they are bias, their Complaint Department were found to be bored with bias complaints and one member moved, the editors of the news express their left wing bias via twitter, and we now have their Director sends a message with a kiss. I think a few more cuts are required up the food chain.
Stop the imposed License tax. I am sick of it. I do not want to pay it for six more years, cut it now.
The BBC can waste £100 million on a build overspend without any sanction or sacking, yet it wants to gripe at every opportunity about small cuts. BBC Trust thought it appropriate to ‘learn lessons’ from the £100 million overspend- Guido, get on the Trust board and give them a little reality check from the public. Get rid of the BBC Trust quango and get rid of the license fee.
So stop watching telly! I don’t. Unfortunately I have to buy a bloody TV licence so the staff can watch one.
The viewers are more important than the staff. Without viewers, there would be no staff. Suggest she contacts every viewer and assures them of the unbiased nature of the BBC and advises that they need not pay their telly tax any more. Signed with a kiss, naturally.
Totally agree with the thrust (oo-er) of your comment, but the word is biased, not bias.
This miss-spelling is beginning to do my nut in.
Now, just what is so biased about asking people to vote Labour?
Eh?
Eh??
Kirsty loves Jack McConnell and Tommy Sheridan.
I wish I had your wedge waad
Mr Doulton. The answer is in yourself. Go out and make it.
I have four years before the licence is free. I will own up on my 75th birthday and ask for a licence.
Kirsty love. who is this Miss Spelling you are on about? Unless you mean mis-spelling of course?
Guido, let’s have a ticker feed on where Gordon Brown is every day and then maybe his voters will realise that he’s doing sweet FA all day at their expense.
I haven’t paid a licence fee since the Falklands War as I considered that bunch of left wing shits at the BBC to be an Argentine fifth coloum. They will even support a military junta if it’s against the Tories.
BBC absolutely bias about the spending cuts on the 24hr news site, probably Kennedy’s influence. Laura Hoonsburg her usual inept self, she was even pointing her finger at Hammond while placid towards bankrupt the country Darling. All questions slanted at Tories and nothing challenging towards bankrupt Darling or the mess Liebour caused the country. Is there anything between her ears? To provide balance to my comment, she is ugly and has nothing else in her life.
Robinscum rants on, nothing of interest. I thought this hoon was retiring, could it not be brought forward to help with cuts. No need to replace him he talks bollocks and costs too much. To bring balance to my comment his pension ought to be slashed according to contribution-nil.
This is the BBC and here is the news.
Today waves of Coalition cuts attacked cities across the nation. They were met by a gallant few of our totally impartial reporters.
These brave young men and women of the Liberal media repeatedly engaged the prevailing consensus in the airwaves over Britain and desperately tried to turn mainstream opinion in favour of a more socialist outlook.
These fresh faced media types, many just out of university and still wrapped in their college scarves, represented the proud tradition of the nation by standing up for freedom and these heroic few managed to continually grab a large slice of the tax payer’s pie.
“Its our final salary pensions I’m fighting for ” said Pilates Officer Emma Jameson of Berkshire. “if we don’t stand up against this sort of Tory tyranny I could find myself not being head of outreach regional media in five years time.”
And Airwave Controller Moore-Funding added “if we don’t get our hidden agenda across then the fac*ists will have won and mummy will be terribly cross with me.”
The prime minister paid tribute to the heroes of the BBc saying “never before in the broadcasting field, have so many paid a compulsory licence fee, to ensure the cosseted welfare of so few. “
LOL
Loved it so much, I’m handing out some cigars…. here’s have a Cohiba….
Splendid BQ, more please!
Thanks. Then you’ll probably like the
Guy Osborne leads his £617 billion Debtbuster squadron to attack the ‘Moaning ‘ Unite enterprise dam.
Fingers circled around eyes chaps..
Daaa da da dah-da-da du du, da dah..
But only if Guy Osborne’s dog gets the proper ‘N’ name.
Shame Sky and every other broadcaster are also going wall to wall on how badly the massive negative impacts of the cuts.
Otherwise, well done!
It sounds exactly like the hilariously feeble shite of a Daily Mailgoloid.
Lovely satire of a far right braindead cretin.
The dog’s name ‘N’ word won’t get through the moderation.
But I thought ‘Snigger’ would be a suitable replacement.
Don’t mind Mong. He’s a troll on a roll. A payroll.
Guess which piece of the pie chart.
Not using your city shitters tag tonight mong?
Are you using someone else’s cubicle?
“how badly the massive negative impacts of the cuts”
English not even your 3rd language then nunulabour troll?
LOL
nunu nunu
Probably a good case for disciplining all those beeboid employees found to have been wasting their employers time and money, using their employers computers for logging on to external sites not related to their work.
You are not 29.
You look at least 59 and look like an ugly version of Alan Johnson.
Fuck off Monday, you parasitical cripple.
Popular blog you’ve got there, mongboy.
nothing wrong with being anti Israel and anti occupation
Tell that to the Egyptians, the Lebanese, the Jordanians – oh, that’s right – the religion of peace doesn’t do charity.
Fuck off home and stop occupying London then.
You are right, tell the Paliscum to get out of Jordan ( West Bank ) and Egypt ( Gaza ) and make their way back to where they originated. Because it is certainly not where they reside now.
We need another crusade to turn back metastasising muslims. They can keep the saudi shit hole the p4edo prophet murdered his fellows, but the rest…
Soz bud but that’s contradictory. If they can keep their shithole why do we need another crusade. Fuck that shit. I’m bored with war – can we have a break, please?
Soz, bud. Bit of a contradiction there – if they can keep their shithole then we damn well don’t need another crusade. I’m bored with war – can we have a few decades off and just read about it?
Uuurghh – pute in treacle!
What the F does soz mean,I have three daughters who use the term,I dont want to encourage them by banning it,but it does my head in
just for starters you’ll find them ruining the Philippines, Bali, Africa, parts of Russia and China.
soz = sorry
but with a hint of insincerity
They’re not bored of war, so until they are eliminated we’ve got a war.
Can’t we just do war from a distance or sommet though? At least with the Germans, French, Yanks, Ruskies, we knew what we were getting but the Chinks, Nips, Gooks, Burmese were fucking Hoons. Boer’s weren’t too funny and Miks ain’t over yet. Africa is Africa. We got our arses kicked by the Indians because of ‘that silly little man in a blaady loin cloth’ and I thought the Blafour declaration was meant to extract us from all that jazz. Hell, I’m still fighting the Lancastrians and the protestants – Pally’s seem pretty good at killing themselves and it seems bad form to bring up Afghanistan & Iraq – we fucked up, alright?
Stop occupying our country then london muslim
Stop occupying London then.
Arf!
Does she own a pair of dungarees or what?
Fuck me! Did you have to post a picture of her… the BBC must go
The way for women to get ahead at the BBC does seem to be to cut their hair short and adopt a stereotypical dyke appearance.
Are there any female BBC bosses who actually look, you know, female?
And why the fuck are they all called Liz, Roz or Jez? Fucking dykes the lot of ‘em!
where does the Anti Israel hating BBC come from Guido?
The miasma of post-colonial , never been hungry. entitlement conscious, snobbish about ‘trade, final stage Buddenbrooks guilt and the understanding of science and politics of the Blue Peter tortoise in the JCR.
White City, West London.
I was through in the kitchen of my house earlier to day when I became aware of the rather shrill voice of a woman who was being interviewed on television. I ventured into the living room and found the source of this to be the latest , possibly one of the “New generation” ,of Labour automatons who was being interviewed by Adam Bolton. She was shrieking in a rather harsh tone, that the deficit was nothing to do with Gordon brown as it was ALL the fault of the banking crisis. Thus another one telling the BIG LIE.
Incidently she looked like Alan johnstone in drag.
The BBC even lie about the fucking weather!
It doesn’t suit their climate change bollox to report that my very accurate precipitation radar shows it’s snowing in Aviemore and the rest of NE Scotland has sleet in the third week of October and temperatures are 4C in Aberdeen.
BBC version: Rain with temperature 7C.
That’s pretty bad, if not to say outrageous. I guess there could be a wind chill factor but sounds bad. The Met Office & the BBC have a cosy relationship and i’ve laways found it funny that they sometimes go from national weather staright into local weather and they don’t correlate! I just put it down to uselessness but….. Seaweed & pine cones required.
Just because they can’t even get the current weather right doesn’t undermine the ability to predict the weather in 100 years time….
Oh it does?
Whoops.
There was a covering of snow all over in Goathland this morning, just tyre tracks showing through on the road (North Yorkshire – Heartbeat place).
It has been snowing here – was this reported on the BBC? I don’t watch nor listen to the BBC any more because the case made by the Biased BBC website is so clear-cut as to be beyond dispute. They don’t get a licence fee from me.
What set me off was the Question Time just after 9/11. The BBC’s ‘specially selected audience’ was balanced: 50% opposed to 9/11 and 50% favourable. There’s balance and impartiality in the audience. The panel was equally balanced, having Yasmin Alibhai-Brown baiting the former US Ambassador. Yes – it was an eye-opener. That whole institution is now so completely toxic as to be beyond reform.
Yeah – I can’t do QT any more either ! Has anyone else noticed how whenever they have a ‘show’ in a ‘tory’ area they seem to have a audience full of students and kids – who always seem to get to air their views.
Even the ‘text comments’ seem to spend more time actually showing the comments of brain dead tossers than any meaningful and worthwhile opinions.
Its so full of left wingers that it is rarer than hens teeth to hear anything meaningful and considered spewed forth from the audience.
Have to say I am mightily with Danny Alexander. This afternoon Pesto, flanders, robinson and even Brillo tried to fluster him when all four attacked him at the same time live on air, then this evenining the usually fair Eddie mair tried to put words into beaker’s mouth.
Yet throughout all these attacks from the BBC Danny remained composed, unflustered, candid, matter of fact and without waffle.
This life long Tory is well impressed with Alexander and less than impressed with the two beeboids that I do respect, Brillo and Mair.
The Coalition is the BBC’s worst nightname, a government that would stand up against them. They always hate the Tories but their very worse bile is reserved for the Lib Dems.
Defectors are always hated more than the enemy itself
Very true Vichy France was more hated than the German occupation .
Yes, a quite astonishing ‘interview’, even by the increasingly dreadful standards of the BBC. Beaker did well to keep his cool under such persistent and withering fire. The BBC makes itself look like total arses if they think that this come anywhere near the realms of fair and balanced interviewing. At one stage Flanders, Nobinson and the ridiculous Pesto were squabbling between themselves as they tried desperately, and unsucessfully, to deliver the knockout blow.
Pitiful.
The interview was more astonishing because the government minister was not trying to dodge the questions and was giving direct answers. Once Flanders, Peston, Robinson and Brillo realised this they went into a direct fight to play their own agenda in. They did not come out of it looking good.
Beaker did pretty well on Channel 4 too – maybe getting rid of Laws was not such a bad thing after all.
Flanders, Nobinson and Pesto came across as absolutely fucking ridiculous, what a bunch of nonces.
It’s good though, the BBC are playing up to what is becoming their own stereotype … a bunch of biased lefties funded by extortion.
Any link to this interview anywhere?
UH-HUUUUURRRRKKK! (peck) (Page Down) (scrittle) SKKKK-QUEEEERRRK!!!
what is the fucking point of that?
That’s the problem with an open blog, anyone can join in.
I suspect there is an internet cafe in Broadmoor.
Translation: Don’t Tell everyone what we are up to !
We are watching … and listening. Sorry but it’s the usual hogwash from the BBC. Today’s news coverage has been ultra-biased.
The BBC managed to cut the sound no their internet service during chunks of Osborne’s speech. Accidentally, I’m sure
They’ve also managed to get Kennedy to delete what she tweeted:
http://twitter.com/rachelkennedy84
BBC: “sickness and unemployment in the NE is caused by the downturn in the 80s” (i.e. by Thatcher…)
The 80s were 30 years ago FFS!
I live in the NE and what fucked us up right and proper was the destruction of the industrial base thanks to the post war consensus destroying competitiveness. It’s true that “sickness” was a problem created in the 1980s thanks, in part, to Lady T’s expansion of disability allowance and the dependency culture which followed.
So everyone on benefits has been ‘sick’ for 30 years? Pull the other one.
FYI what fucked up the industrial base were the continuous strikes and union activism. But carry on… you won’t be told.
I agree with you on both points.
They were put on the sick to hide the unemployment numbers and stayed on it.
What do you think the post war consensus was other than nationalised industry and strong trade unions?
Any further points?
Sorry I hadn’t finished reading your post…
I won’t be told?
The only thing you’ve told me is that you don’t know what the post war consensus was.
We have to accept that the industrial base was screwed up by other factors as well as those you rightly mention.
First, and always in there in top place, is British managements’ chronic incompetence. That has not changed, regrettably. The new generation may be less inclined to come in at 10, pop off for lunch at 12 and spend the afternoon on the golf course, but they have their own little ways. They work ridiculous hours but manage their people with a more or less total lack of understanding of what makes them tick. And the only way in which a manager gets results is not through his/her own efforts, but by those of the people for whom they are responsible. Manage the relationship badly and you get bad results.
Second, was the Howe/Lawson/Lamont policies of the 1980s which set the £stg far too high for us to compete.
In making those points I do not deny the role of the idiot unions and the daft lefties who ran the country in the 1970s. But we mustn’t make Labour’s mistake of trying to re-write history in our favour – otherwise we’ll never learn anything from it.
I’ve just heard one of those bloody Eagle women pretending that the current mess is the fault of American bankers – not a word about Brown’s reckless extravagance – and, of course, her BBC interlocutrix allowed her to get away with it. Cue another complaint to the Beeb…
The de-industrialisation of the UK and all the rest of the western countries was agreed by them under the Lisbon Declaration in 1975 ( Google / Youtube it ).
Thus Globalisation was born and we all know what happened in the following years. All carefully managed by both the Unions and the major Corporations.
To hide the de-industrialisation process millions of non jobs were set up in the public sectors and the welfare state went into overdrive across the entire developed world.
Now the money and the jobs have nearly all gone and the Globalists have governments by the balls. Good game.
‘interlocutrix’
Been a while since I heard that word. Sounds like someone who likes eating out.
In the case of Eagle, it could be fitting.
I agree that UK managers have been very poor for a very long time, mismanaging both resources and labour. A notable exception, at least in terms of labour relations, was the chemical industry which probably explains why so much of it survives, even if it’s no longer under British ownership.
Another problem is that we don’t do sales well. A recent survey (from memory so no source or link) established that of the UK companies which have started to export abroad since the onset of the recession, 60 something percent of them only did so because they were approached by a customer.
“We don’t do sales well”
My dad was an export manager at ICI from the late 40s to early 70s. He was nearly sacked for getting a £1 million order from Japan in the 60s (nobody had done that before)… “can’t possibly meet that demand, the unions won’t allow us to increase production to fulfill it, what were you thinking of?”
I wasn’t aware marketing gits were doing their tricks so long ago.
Some poor sods had to make that happen.
Now of course, theese days it isn’t me now that works for ICI, and no-ones going to get maimed, or end the day waiting to catch the corpse floating out to sea, but I do sit in consternation when some marketing arse has just sold something that doesn’t exist.
Remember, that the post war industrial consensus had collapsed in the 1970s. By 1979, nearly all heavy industry had been nationalised to prevent it vanishing.
cars, coal, steel, shipyards, aircraft, nuclear fuels….you name it.
Maggie simply started to reduce the size of the taxpayer bailouts needed by these ‘industries’.
She didn’t pull the lot though. BL got a billon in 1983 money in 1983. British Steel got some massive cash injections for new plant.
Trouble was, we’d lost the markets and the products were often shite.
Leyland Truck – once the west’s biggest commercial vehicle exporter – had, by 1983, been driven out of Europe and and sold mostly to the third world. Its trucks, typically, couldn’t cope with 100,000 miles per year.
BL was, of course, created by Labour under Wilson and Benn. When BL collapsed in late 1974, Wilson commissioned the Ryder report.
Wilson stood up in parliament in March 1975 and said that if BL wasn’t saved it would cost 1 million jobs. He also said BL needed £2,5bn to modernise itself. What the hell was that sum in today’s money?
As usual, Labour causes huge consequences with its meddling.
As with its recent reliance on the banks to fund its spending – no wonder the regulation was so weak – Labour created something with BL that was too big to fail and so costs the country untold billions until Maggie flogged it to BAe.
You show your ignorance.
In the 60s we were in much the same position as we are now (Wilson had just made his “pound in your pocket” speech) and the only way out of the mess was to export and earn foreign exchange. What dad sold the Japanese existed (paints) but managers were too terrified of the unions to ask them to gear up production to meet orders. Makes me laugh to think of them all out of work now, serves them bloody right.
And, btw, trawling around factories and businesses the world over seeing what they want to buy, negotiating a price, signing and closing a deal is about as far removed from marketing as the BBC is from reporting the truth.
Did someone say marketing?
Susie, in the 1970s I was briefly employed in the commercial office of a British embassy in the middle east. The Arabs had just got lots of money from quadrupled oil price increase. It was possible in those days of frenetic local “development” to sell anything from paperclips to JCBs with just one phone call and UK was preferred first choice supplier for many items, but the big problem was UK’s inability to supply in time or in quantity required. Land Rover waiting list was something over 18 months for delivery of basic model, so many of my contacts who desperately wanted British goods for their projects/companies gave up and went instead to Japan and Germany for urgent needed supplies. I understand your dad’s predicament. Many travelling export managers uncovered huge possibilities for their companies back home but had to decline to make a contract because of the conditions you describe.
Worried about the BBC?

It might explain why this sinister organisation needs to be dismantled immediately and why most of it’s staff should be on the MI5/MI6 watchlists.It has been infiltrated and needs a serious investigation.
It might also explain why this antisemitic, christianophobic, anti Coalition monster loathes our allies and loves our enemies. It cannot continue to undermine our way of life.
Here you go:

Some R4 programme this morning was going on about ‘the Liverpool sheikh’, some guy Quilliam who founded a mosque there. He gave a copy of the Quran to a disciple, whose devout Christian mother was described as ‘bigoted’ for telling her to burn it.
Why the fuck does Al JaBeeBa not denounce as bigoted those Muslim countries where even the possession of a bible is an offence?
I guess it’s just their normal bias.
(BTW – I hope that this Quilliam nutter was not the inspiration for the current institute dedicated to exposing Muslim extremism in the UK.)
Peter Grimes,why the feckin hell are we even talking about this qoran book,it doesn’t belong here,leave it were it belongs in other lands,I for one am sick and tired of having it thrust down my throat endlessly by the vested interests and you can make what you like of that although I do agree with you.
What are these people doing tweeting in their spare time when they all should be hard at work gathering news?
I think you will find they are tweeting all the time, not just free time.
Abolish the bastards.

What the fucking fuck is she doing ending her message with a fucking kiss?
I am just glad she didn’t address her colleagues as “comrades”.
They WUV one another… nobody else does.
Is she a beanflicker?
Or a lawn-muncher even!
Peter Grimes,hey mate you are on the right track here,root and branch is needed on this horrible organisation.
They are listening, good. Sack Marr, Peston and Flanders. Labour stooges all.
Get them all to fuck.
From what I hear they don’t need much encouragement on that score. Plenty of that going on already. Or did you mean “Get them all to fuck off.”?
‘We also have brains and judgement….’ ha ha ha ha!
BBC bosses are reading are they, ok.
Sack that c**t Chris Moyles
Stop advertising your own programmes by putting them in ‘news stories’
Global warming doesn’t exist
Tell Matt Frei that Chile is not pronounced Chi-lay
Retire Toenails
Tell Matt Frei that not one of those miners had anxious husbands waiting for them.
Impossible, miners as in every walk of life, will have a statistical number of gays. Based on that, at least seven out of ten must have been gay, just like here at the BBC.
Ask Evo Morales about that. He blames Western addiction to chicken. Doesn’t happen apparently to indigenos ‘cos they roast guinea-pigs.
Can we have less programmes were lefty comedians desperately try to outdo each other in a bid to be right on and loved?
e.g. the news quiz and mock the week
Oh and while we’re at it the Review show.
Starve Jo Brand to death.
This could take years.
I thought that was John Sergeant in drag?
“Stop advertising your own programmes by putting them in ‘news stories’”
Exceptionally well said Sir, this intensely irritating practice is now completely out of hand, with Toady easily leading the list of offenders. Oh look, here’s a ‘news’ story – and by the way, chaps, by a very strange coincidence it’s on BBC 1 tonight at 8 o’clock… blah, blah, blah. Even the wretched weather forecasts contain plugs for BBC programmes, thinly disguised as the weather for a particular sporting event.
Such is the paucity of the BBC’s news gathering ability, and their lust for ratings, that they have to stuff their programmes – with endless plugs for their own programmes!
They even had one unfunny Leftist comedian on the Toady programme this morning offering his dumb views on the non-existent upcoming cuts.
Peter,good comment,but you forgot one thing the whole organisation is riven with dumb arseholes who frankly are pathetic tossers.
Their grasp of anything is akin to trying to plait sawdust,sooner we get rid of this bunch puffed up self serving drains on the economy the better.
The other tactic used extensively is the prefacing the question with “What people are saying is……” i.e “what we at the BBC are saying is ……” or “What people want to know is…….” i.e.”This is what we want to nail you to the wall with….”.
Very remniscent of New Liebour media manipulation tactics
The BBC are going on about tough times ahead for the NHS, but the NHS budget is going up.
Reality doesn’t matter to the BBC.
Earlier they interviewed a provincial police chief, GP, and a hospital chief executive, their response were we can manage, we welcome GP procurement, and we’ve had 10 good years we now need to deal with the bad respectively.
Undeterred the BBC kept asking everyone and anyone until they could find people to disagree with the Government.
Guess which responses the BBC is filling its reports with?
I saw that too ST, and you are spot on, they have not returned to the opinions of your stated speakers, instead, polluting the airwaves with lefty bias and fat black women, its a f*cking disgrace.
I have had to stop watching now, it’s making me sick.
The BBC is a loathsome detestable vile organisation. How DARE they expect taxpayers who they so blatantly hate to fund their ridiculous output. I’d like them all to rot in hell as soon as possible.
Tis true.Last week I received my Licence fee bill £150.50 set out to be paid by direct debit on a quarterly basis.As preferred as it doesn’t (quite) hurt so much as paying it immediately in full.Which I could do but it would make me feel it was an act of treason.Which is what it basically is.An anti-market,anti-British,supporter of an outdated,throughly discredited and authoritarian political ideology.That I resent having to pay for.
Then don’t…
OK then, how does one stop the BBC Stasi knocking at your door at 2 am? Serious question. I see people on here proclaiming that they haven’t paid the Licence tax for years. How do they get a way with that? If I didn’t pay I’d end up in front of the Beak before you could say “Question time audiences are fair and balanced”
Stop watching television. Do something else with your time instead. I know it’s hard, but it just takes a little willpower. As you obviously have access to a PC of some sort, then you can use the iPlayer as a free “nicotine patch” to keep up with the bits you still need.
I’ve never had a TV in the house (yes, I’m aware how wierd I am) and oddly enough don’t feel the urge to get one.
Doesn’t it beg the question why is she employing people whose personal opinions are so contrary to impartiality ?. surely Rachel Kennedy should be asked to consider her position and whether she can be impartial ?.
Short version: “Quick! Hide the evidence!”
Sad that it doesn’t seem to have crossed her mind yet that maybe if having her staff express their opinions in public is embarassing to the BBC that the problem might be the opinions themselves, rather than their public expression. Now, if she would stop listing job vacancies in the Grauniad and try to introduce a little ideological diversity into her left-wing echo chamber, perhaps she wouldn’t have to exhort them all to make futile attempts to conceal their bias?
Guido,
You forgot to mention pro-EU, pro-immigration and anti-integration. I can’t believe the bias the BBC news displays on these issues, regardless of public sentiment. There has been almost no coverage of the step by step elimination of our sovereignty and national identity in the headline news. Of course, when it comes to the cuts, there is little mention of the masses of waste and ‘non-jobs’ in the management areas of the public sector and instead just the hype over front line cuts. BBC Question Time has gone beyond bias but they obviously never read or discuss the online feedback from the ‘non-stagemanaged’ public. Is it any wonder that a poll today was in favour of scrapping funding to the BBC entirely?
All BBC feedback sites reject any and all comments unless they say: “That was an absolutely marvellous programme and everyone is massively grateful that the great BBC made it. You are all intellectual giants”.
Yet more grief
Life is so unfair
My slavish devotion to new labour has not resulted in the quango job I richly deserved after last election
Sorry mate, Trevor Philips beat you to it!
Who was that snotty little Hunt on “Have I Got News For You” last week? Just kept on tacking Cameron and Clegg onto half-arsed puerile witticisms.
Apart from the Sky at Night they could shut the whole shower of crap down for me.
I don’t have a licence (or a TV), so I don’t pay for the bugg3rs, but I do watch Sky at Night on iPlayer.
How is it that Patrick Moore can make an educational programme in his living room, which has cutting edge research explained in a non-patronising fashion – for about 50p an episode – whereas the rest of the BBC can’t do it with billions?
They hate him, of course, because he’s totally non PC, so they hide the broadcasts.
I hate to think what they’ll do when he’s gone – Chris Lintott is good, but he doesn’t have the unsackable factor.
Patrick Moore on Room 101 in 2007:
“The trouble is that the BBC now is run by women and it shows: soap operas, cooking, quizzes, kitchen-sink plays. You wouldn’t have had that in the golden days.”
They will tell us they have to take adverts for female incontinence soon to make up for the spending freeze!
Peter,nice one,they have been spouting verbal waste products for years in admiration of their liebour mates.
They are frankly a disgrace to the supposedly unbiased broadcasting fraternity.
Rachel Kennedy went to Leeds Poly so what do you expect
I expect she’ll be a really good shag when pissed – that’s the pattern at the Poly.
Do you mean that they look bleak when you’re sober or when they are pissed?
This is the headline on the BBC news website:
“Osborne wields UK spending axe”
Here comes a candle to light you to bed
And here comes a chopper to chop off your head!
It’s costing us 48 billion a year to service interest costs.
Ergo, if we don’t save about 200 billion over the next four years we’re still worse off.
These ‘savage cuts’ don’t even begin to tackle the problem – that is the state that New Liebour left us in.
80 billion? Sod all.
The debt interest will increase to £60 billion by 2015 so the saving will need to be £250 billion to stand still.
The national debt will be £1.4 trillion, go figure.
Don’t worry I’m already working on my new plan to return the UK to fabulous prosperity after the dark ConDem years of austerity.
Thanks Gordon.
Make sure you’re next to a communicator in the year 2055, we’ll be calling and asking for your advice.
BBC Spinning so wildly for the last 24 hours I have a proposal. Connect them to a wind turbine and they can generate enough energy to run the National Grid. Collect all the hot air to ensure that heating can be pumped to every house in UK. Energy problem solved – should be good for their Green agenda as well. Happy Days!
Did anyone else watch the Daily Politics today? (coverage of the spending review).
It was so incredibly biased, it was almost laughable.
Comments from ‘front line’/R Peston/S Flanders etc etc about how painful these ‘cuts’ would be. Then comments from one or two city types saying this ‘HAD’ to be done for Britain’s economic credibility – which were passed over and not commented on at all.
The bbc makes me sick – lets get rid of it asap.
Yes it was absurdly biased and obviously all the more so because of the licence fee freeze announcement. I used to think S Flanders was objective but she’s given up any attempt at objectivity. Sympathy for her old boy friends presumably.
What is so obvious is that the BBC and its presenters are so desparaetly hoping that the Coalition will fail and we will sink into double dip recession, spreading as much despair and creating as much anger as they can. Thats how much they care for the country, no wonder the news is so much better on Sky, at least it rid of NR.
Flanders and Peston were foaming at the mouth at the very thought of the cuts. Both need to be cut loose if the state broadcaster is to have any integrity.
The BBC desperately wants a double dip because that means ‘free money’ like Gordon would have liked it. Pages on the need for QE, terse on the alternative being practised everywhere in the world except Obamaland.
They’ve invested a lot of emotional capital in the Coalition tripping. And, sad to say, it shows.
PS we are at economic war with OBAMALAND, they want to inflate while the rest of the world is deflating. Obamaland, the world’s greatest debtor is trying to screw the creditors. If UK did that, or even looks like doing the same, we’d be toast.
FFS! They feckin’ SAVINGS not CUTS.
The BBC if you are on Guido you now know you are Hunts!!
I couldn’t watch PMQ today so looked for excerpts on BBC news – nothing – I have just found a recording and can see exactly why the bbc have “chosen” not to show it – priceless – Milliband minus 20 ‘n I didn’t even vote Tory.
Can you post the link please ?
Ah, just seen it a couple of posts down. No action required.
More importantly, when will the BBC learn about their open air stand in Westminster? Lord Lamont called a “f**king b@st@rd” live on air before 6pm, let alone 9pm!
I LOVE GORDON BROWN. HE IS THE DADDY.
I would double-check those DNA results if I were you.

Stupid fuccing socialist psycological bollucks
The funniest thing is that for some reason Ed thinks that rhetorically asking whether a particular minister is in the chamber is the height of hilarity. What a fuckwit.
Thanks for posting that, did not see it earlier today.
Every time I see Red-Ed I see a cross betweeen Jerry Lewis and Mr Bean.

That was gruesome. Shooting fish in a barrel
A walkover.
Wow, Little Ed’s gonna be relying on the sympathy-vote at this rate. And there’s precious little of that to be had from the leader of the most corrupt English political party in living memory; one who used their time in office to punish their own voters, import a million or so new ones to replace them then steal everyone’s liberties.
With this hopelessly-outclassed Student Union prick at the helm, the only way for Nulab is bankruptcy on every level.
Rejoice.

Any link to Postie’s later Debacle, the Bollocks apparently are seen fuming!!?!
Ha Ha Ha
That was painful to watch -totally slaughtered.
The BBC has become a national disgrace mostly employing total scum.
Break it up and sell it off, the sooner the better!!!
Would you buy a place with staff like that?
Turn it into a mosque — they could have sharia and everything. Let’s see how all the Beeboid gays there like it.
“Over to Toenails… did Graham Norton kick about a bit when he was hung from the crane?”
The left wing bias of the BBC is embarrassing. So obvious that intervention is neccessary.
i am very disappoined by the spending review. £83 bn of cuts over 4 years is no where near enough, bearing in mind that we have already borrowed £75 billion this year and the on – balance sheet debt is around £850 billion. it seems baked in that this will rise to over £1 trillion in the next few years.
the sad thing is, a lot of the cuts aren’t cuts at all as they will be used to pay for some other policy for some minority group.
i was expecting real cuts today with the massive reduction in defense capability yesterday. i can’t say i am happy that the defense was to be so badly implemented (carriers, no planes/reduced combat jets/mothball new nimrods/continue with the £16 billion air tanker fleet (at 700% over the off-the-shelf price)/no withdrawal from Germany/no reform of procurement or hierarchy), but i felt that this was a price worth paying for long – term prosperity. the rest of the review does not deliver. NHS to rise from £109 billion to £150 billion, 37% increase to Difid (the worst way of achieving foreign policy objectives), only £7 billion off the welfare budget, £2 billion for a ‘pupil premium’ another £1 billion on a ‘green bank’ (we already own three banks!)/extra contributions to the EU.
to add to all this, there isn’t even an aspiration to cut taxes in the future.
i was pleased when the coalition came to power, but i have been very disappointed by them. i am happy to pay my extortionate taxes and receive no benefits and use no services if the taxes are used wisely. currently, the only priority is to eliminate the deficit in its entirety asap and then to pay off the debt.
the coalition has made no effort to reduce business regulation or to reduce the power of the state. i see that they rubber stamped the equalities bill and have started to look again at the email/phone/internet monitor website. climate change policy remains a massive waste of resources and the idea that we can spend an additional £200 million on offshore wind just beggars belief – the IRR on that project will be lower than the interest paid on the debt taken to do it.
it is a shame that 450,000 people will lose their jobs, but in a lower tax, lower regulation environment this might have been okay. as it stands, where will the private sector jobs come from – who would invest in such a high tax high regulation economy with a reputation for retrospective changes to the fiscal and legal system?
frankly, this government is exactly the same as the last one. the only difference is the odd £ billion here and there in office and administration costs.
Sad, but true – these ‘savage cuts’ are not even a good beginning.
Not only should all these lazy useless public sector workers be made redundant I would also personally give them a bloody good flogging. Then they would be broken for spare part surgery and the remains used for bio diesel and dog food.
I don’t use that moniker in the evenings any more, keep up.
I didn’t write it but I liked the comment.
Hear, hear!
You must hear the words “complete and utter wanker”, applied in your specific direction, an awful lot.
Ed Miliband is a fucking mong.
That’s the worst kind.
He looks a bit earnest and foreign. Dad was some sort of conscientious objector?
That’s a euphemism for ‘coward’.
Wouldn’t join the RAF then?
Murdoch’s grovelling minions wank themselves into a frenzy over nothing.
The BBC ain’t going anywhere windowlickers, no matter how much you scweam.

Is Ed Miliband Asian? He looks like something that just crawled in from Islamabad
Go back to Highgate Karl……and stay there
So according to labour we are faced with a choice of cutting back our overspending and responsibly paying back our debts or ,
as they think would be best, continuing to spend and letting our children and grandchildren paypack our financial profligacy after we’ve gone.
Labour are in the fortunate position of not having to clear up their own mess, hence putting a clown forward as shadow chancellor.
Actually anon labour are in the ‘fortunate’ position of leaving US to clear up their mess.
Unfortunately for them, we shall not forget it!!
‘That’s’ a euphemism for a thing, person or idea already mentioned.
Jack Straw was the alien turd who said that “The English don’t deserve to survive as a race”
His coward Father sure thought so, conscientious objector my arse. My Grandfathers life was saved by Quaker stretcher bearers. Shitbag could of joined the Red cross.

I could not agree more

No…. just towards the wanky leftie bastards !!!!
Yes, all the time.
What a snivelling hypocrite you are “Guido” All in favour of free speech but you block people from following you on Twitter because they disagree with you and say why.
How is blocking people on Twitter from spamming Guido hindering their right to free speech? Have blocked hundreds of nutters who send spam. More every day. Free speech doesn’t mean Guido has to listen to them, nor does it give them a right to Guido’s audience.
or extend to dissing essay format !
Caesar,
If you are going to post 1000 word essays don’t you think you should get a blog? Rather than casting your pearls among the swine here you could exercise your freedom of speech and rant at length on your own blog.
Ah but then , we would lose the incendary mix of thoughtful opinion contrary to the spin of the village , dont forget that some posters specialist knowledge adds to the good work you do , indeed where would any libertarian blog host be without posters , who can harpoon the propoganda . You like the city and the fraudsters and spinners and your blogg has changed a lot of things , as for if a response rant is any different to a post rant , it gets a little troubling and opressive . But like many bloggs you do get loads of spam that isnt comment .Bloggs chose censure over editing substance unlike dead tree press
Bollocks CW – I’m with Guido. Your postings/novels are over long, usually incomprehensible due to poor grammar and always boring.
CW — some spelling and punctuation would be nice.
Guido’s right (a tautology?). If you wanna do something thoughtful do it on a blog, and post a link.
No swine here – everything is kosher!
Leave Guido alone! He’s worth his not inconsiderable weight in platinum (or insert precious metal of choice) just for getting up the nose of the likes of al-Jabeeba!
Well I don’t know about twitter because I don’t use it.
But he’s pretty tolerant on here about letting people who disagree with him express a point of view. Evidenced by the fact that you have just done so. So he’s hardly hypocritical.
The BBC weren’t making all this fuss about the economy when when half the jobs in the country were financed either by taxpayers or borrowing.
They keep bleating on about “welfare benefits”. Why should people who work and are struggling finance those who won’t work. Let the workshy struggle not the workers.
the evil nasty coalition government have destroyed the world with their spending review…
the end is nigh…
Dear Helen Boaden, If you think the Broken Biscuit Company is impartial you need to buy a dictionary (at the licence payers expense of course) and look at what it means.
And as for brains and judgement your idea of what impartiality actually means suggest
you are devoid of both.
I don’t like the BBC. They make shit programs. But seen as I’ve only paid the TV License once in my entire life (i’m 34 btw) I don’t feel like i’m being ripped off.
My missus works at the Beeb. She has to keep her centre right views to herself to avoid being socially ostracised. It is a seriously and rampantly left wing organisation.
They’re all hideously left wing.
It is worse than it appears from the outside, believe me!
Clegg ought to want to address it – he is Public Enemy Number One in White City, Shepherd’s Bush etc for daring to go into Coalition with the Blues and will pay for it dearly in 2015 if he doesnt get something serious done about AlJabeeba’s impartiality.
But the BBC were bigging him up pre-election — the ‘Cleggasm’ — when they thought the Lib Dems would align with Labour. They’re going to look like fools, edit: they do look like fools.
I remember during the election campaign, a beeboid newsreader, was calling a hung Parliament a “balanced Parliament” as the silly bitch automatically though the Libs were far lefties,just like them and would,jump into bed with the Comrades.Arrogant twat.
Nice One Guido………………….
I wonder how long Ed Milliband will survive after his performance today. Oh dear, and did you watch Yvette’s face during PMQ’s – priceless!
He was effing dreadful at PMQs today – hilarious. The one-off half witted funny of last week was exactly that.
I’m currently watching Poxman constantly interrupt Beaker on Newshite. Time his bubble was burst too! Beaker is holding his ground well…

BBC gets caught out again…
I bet there weren’t empty champagne bottles strewn over Broadcasting House when the coalition got into power.
12% cuts.
Make it 25% and let’s see these pathetic lefties have a real spas-attack.
Well said. Take their Cocaine and rent boy money off the c u n t z
make it 80%! Just defence and law. No failure rewards or stupidity subsidies.
DEPRECATE NHS, State Skoolz, Workshy Reward, Unaffordable conception reward etc.
Why is there no ‘Ban The Biased BBC’ political action group? These Barstewards are more dangerous to human progress than Fiat money!
all money is fiat.
No,Gold and Silver became money by peoples’ choice,not by decree of legal tender laws.The most easily exchanged good.I think you’ll find it will become money again in the not too distant future and then goodbye Central Banks and Socialism.
Can we not have that bald twat, Nick Robinson, chipping in every few minutes?
He knows no more than anyone else. Ditto, the smug Robert Peston.
And Laura Kuennsberg is just stupid, stupid, stupid! How did she get the job? At least we can be assured it wasn’t for her looks!
A betrayal as great as the BBCs:
That is so typical of life in the bbc! At home in the gutter too!
Well… as one who has always worked and never claimed benefits (apart from being lucky enough not to have had to pay for higher education) I now see that: I’ll be working until I’m 66 (no way in the job I’m doing now, however – so if there are no dodderer-do-able jobs around I’ll be claiming benefits until my pension kicks in); my travel costs are going to rocket; I’m subsidising child/travel/heating allowance benefits for some who don’t need it (not to mention more folk out of work until the jobs grow on the magic jobs tree); I’ll be paying more into my pension; GPs are going to be in charge of my chances of getting timely/effective treatment for my medical ills (when from past experience I can’t think of anything worse); if I have children they’ll be educated by Tesco, have a life of debt and little chance of buying their own home; many of the needy in my community will be collateral damage in the scourge of the undeserving; there will be fewer already invisible policemen on the street (but a lot more crims and homeless)…
Phew. Good job I’m nonpartisan and have some awareness of all ‘sides’ to the cuts debate. Otherwise I’d be feeling really pissed off.
Look on the bright side. At least you don’t work in the construction sector – 25% of that went down the pan two years ago. Ditto Woolworths, Redcar steel plant etc etc.
Seriously – how else do we address the nation’s economic woes? We can’t take the Labour option of ignoring them and hoping they go away. We’ve had a decade of splurging on the national credit card; the bill had to be payed sometime, and most of what affects you is going to affect the rest of us too (including those of us who have already had our pension pots raided by Gordon’s sticky fingers).
I’m not paid to come up with the answers, Eng. So I’ll stick to what I know. I’m happy to take my share of the pain, and as I’m a public sector front liner who does an important job well I’m hoping to dodge the axe. But I’ve never been one to think only of myself. What would you do?
What the British always do. Have a brew of tea and get on with it. Mustn’t grumble, that sort of thing. What else can we do? I don’t much relish having to wait extra years for my state pension (assuming it’s worth more than pocket money by the time I get there) but I can see the point. Nobody said life was fair; if you want something you’ve got to work for it. I do wish the government would let me get a return on my savings, though. Not a fortune, just keeping pace with inflation would do me.
Ha! You “work” in the extortion funded sector so your whole pay is a benefit.
You need to change that broken record.
Truth hurts doesn’t it, Dack………
Interesting isnt it , how those at the BBC cannot bring themselves to see how public feels about abusive payments .
Spending review was comprehensive and starts off on the right footing CW notes that when press can only start on on finding the uneployment hell holes , hidden by labour after 13 yrs in power is a bit unfortunate .
i dont agree with one union official who said that we shouldnt cut public sector as they do an important role . CW admits that we have to have some sort of public services , but the unions should note that it has limits , after years of consultants and wasted projects dont they think that trying to make a social stae worker eutopia is a nightmare .
I would have liked a list from Osbourne on the wasted money on wonk projects and IT , just so that everyone who runs one of the real people support groups can see how Labour dont give a monkeys .
Its very complex , I would have liked to have seen a bit more thought on the 1million jobs needed to be created , but that too points to a funny ending namely how will the jobs market look . If your going to make work pay just make sure you deliver work !
Rest of it , is pretty dare I say fair , I would have prefred immediate action on public sector pension via a an exposure cap , and contributions are perhaps fairer , there is nothing more gauling than seeing a person get promotion only for them to retire under another rule 1 yr later . The higher earners are knackering public service pensions , a cap is fair , but difficlut to work , If they want good pensions then they should have lower wages for 50k plus lot , sooner or later the pay and pensions bit must be worked out for public sector workers and not at the expense of the low paid ones .It is literally at £1 trillon public sector pensions liability (up from £360mn in 1997) killing our economy
He probably didn’t go far enough. In 5 years time the debt will be bigger and the interest payments will have risen to £63 billion. We will still have a 7.5% deficit and will have to go through the whole process once again only with even more urgency.
I fricking hate the BBC …… especially BBC Radio Five Live !! The missus insists on putting it on and might well be grounds for divorce !!
Is that twat Richard Bacon really as good as he thinks he is??
Oh, Bacon! I thought you said molluscs!
Stop tweeting you twats. Keep our left-wing view to ourselves.
Did anyone else hear the last part of the Media Show
http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00dv9hq
this afternoon: a boiling angry Steve Hewlett telling Sir Michael Lyons that the BBC governors had “sold the pass” and often interrupting him; and Sir Michael being very very patient with him. The sort of interview during which you could hear Hewlett’s chances of promotion shrinking with every sentence he uttered.
It was on when I came in and I couldn’t believe the interviewer was so thick he couldn’t realise how very bad and biased he sounded, but – so used to pushing the leftwing priveleged, theirs by right attitude. Hope he’s sacked tonight but won’t hold my breath unfortunately.
BBC 6 o’clock news totally one-sided. Not a single vox pop in favour and all commentators against. Flanders and Robinson their usual insipid selves. Sky News no better – the web site is unbelievable and the comments are almost entirely by labour benefit-junky trolls. I’ve left the UK for good – I’m not paying 50% tax to support the underserving scum-sucking labour -voting peasants and immigants that now inhabit the once green and pleasant land(and don’t get me started on the welsh and scottish fucking parasites). Good luck to all of you.
Welcome to the club. Time lots more folk voted with their feet (taking their wallets with them of course).
The BBC staff is having a mass hissy fit in having to fit in with the real world. The trouble is, they see themselves as a separate entity from the public, they see themselves as a cosy culture, adrift from viewers and listeners, no wonder Stephen Fry and his ilk are working overtime with that fucking pathetic “I’m proud of the BBC” video, wanker.
They tried over years to keep the status quo, to omit the sleaze of Labour (Jacqui Smith, Baroness Udin, and as K-tel said Many More). Despite all their best efforts, they didn’t get the government they worked so hard to get.
Now they find, due to the inept (actually criminal) management of the economy by their beloved New Labour, measures have to be made to clean up their beloved Labour’s shit.
They even have the cajones to openly criticise the measures taken today, it’s not implied, it’s not subtle, it’s parrot fashion from Labour HQ.
If you want to make savings at the BBC you could start by getting all the wankers spending all your time on Social fucking Media (messageboard and blogs), telling us how “proud” we should be off the BBC, instead of working on decent programming.
The BBC is a bloated, partial, political wing of the left. Don’t roll out the same old shit that, “for every complaint we get from the right, we get one from the left”, that is a lie, a bit of PR that has gone on for decades. Start representing and entertaining (within sensible budgets) the demographic of the the people taxed that provide you with your cosy little culture.
Looking at Guido’s graph my second from last paragraph is spot on. The BBC pretending to be a normal member of the public saying how great the BBC is. This isn’t the POV message board you wankers, you’ve been shown up here.
Nnnnnnnnyeeeeeeeesssss. Baaaaaaillllllouuuuut of the bbbbbbbbaaaaaaannnnnnkkkkkksssss coooorst an eye-waaaaaaterrrriiinnnng…
Ed Milliband’s a wanker

They often wank together
They do,they do,they do
They go to wanking parties
But never with their wives
So Leftys:Wank together!

I assume that witty ditty is to the tune of ‘When i’m cleaning windows’?

BBC today Wednesday…Red Ed’s performance at PMQs…to continue the nautical theme….
SUNK WITHOUT TRACE, MAN THE LIFEBOATS!!!
WTF!!!
Yes….you were not the only one to note the bias and omissions !!
*yawn*. Please please please, just for once, stop spinning! I hear Andy Coulson could soon be stepping down – maybe you could take his place?
Her e-mail makes no reference to “left-wing” news staff. Stop misleading your readers.
Don’t be pathetic.
To her they are not left wing, they are just normal.
This is the problem with the BBC – they think their left wing views are what most people share.
They also think other views aren’t allowed.
Some scatterbrained student/trainee teacher in Oxford was trying to get me to sign a petition against ‘the Tory cuts’.
She shut up when I asked her if she was trying to bleed the country dry, and what the tax burden would be if she was in charge. When I reminded her that Darling had proposed some cuts, she looked like a startled rabbit looking at the headlights of an approaching lorry.
Tell her you’re against putting children in debt.
Should have told her to f off and get back to her class. Don’t try to reason with them.
The BBC needs to have a member of the Taxpayers Alliance at the helm of their organisation and certainly as hosts of Newsnight, Question Time, and This Week. Their ‘dummed-down’ version of current events and omission of the most important issues affecting this country is appalling.
Don’t panic – Sir Stuart Rose is on the way…….

You couldn’t make it up
Poor old aljohnson looked rather lost this afternoon.
Yesterday he gave two speeches one in the morning saying that osbourne would push us into a double dip recession and one in the afternoon saying he didn’t think a double dip would happen.
Today he sat and listened as george said that he had received a letter from johnson and militwit stating that they considered there shold be no more than 20% cuts across the board and then heard george say that he had taken their advice and had only cut by 19% overall.
Johnson’s response, after all that, was gobledegook. militwit squirmed and looked as if he would cry as aljohnson was speaking, harriett look confused to say the least.
Wonder how the balls are feeling about his laughable performance?
Does anyone really care what Postman Prat has to say? He should be apologising to the country for screwing over the economy under their supreme leader Komrade Brownski.
Does anyone care what Postman Prat has to say?…

Show us your tits!
I have a sneaking sympathy for Postman Al. He’s been bowled an unplayable delivery by RedEd; he has to defend the indefensible without much understanding of economics, and that makes Labour look like a load of floundering idiots. The real culprits on the Opposition benches are either silenced for political expediency, or completely absent.
Blair to Field replay googly it is then!!
He doesn’t have to take the job. There is something pathetic about a politician without a cause.
You are getting soft, Engineer. Everything you say is spot on, but The Postman deserves no sympathy. He’s been offered a job, for political expediency, which we all know he can’t do. He knows it too. But he still takes it, and the power and compensation that goes with it. If he was honest he’d do an “Estelle”.
I googled ‘BBC Editorial Guidelines impartiality’
I got their BBC blue/green Editorial Guidelines page along with the message
‘ the page you were looking for may have been deleted’
Says everything!!
I googled, ‘nell the blogging nightmare’ and got the message, ‘the blogger you were looking for may have been deleted’.
Ha Ha Ha
Bum bum
you should have tried googling ‘gordon brown the inactive mp’
Now there is someone who has disappeared off the radar!!
Amazing that not only is he still drawing a working mp’s salary of £65 pa, (even though he’s not working), and expenses for office and staff , a pm’s retirement severance of £100k pa plus , plus the annual cost of a 24 hour security detail.
Clearly he is costing us at least £300k pa for not lifting a finger!!??
You have some interesting visitors to the blog. I wonder why they never post.
Perhaps they are compiling a list so they can murder us when they take over. OR perhaps they are fascinated, as a mongoose when confronted by a snake, or a rabbit caught in the headlights of a massive Mack truck as it hurls itself towards the soon to be flattened bunny? The BBC has got to go – sorry, so does the EU Parliament but I suspect the EU hits came from UKIP and Tory MEPs and their offices. We are the future Guido, and the BBC is terrified.
The EUSSR and Pravda are keeping tabs on their enemies.
you BELIEVE a colourful pie chart on web statistics ????????
LMAFAO!!!!
Who says they never post?
You’ve got to laugh. However hard they try the lefties at the beeb simply cannot shut their fat pampered gobs and keep their heads down.
The “empty champagne bottles strewn around the corridors” after blair’s first victory is just a distant memory.
Now they bleat about being hard done by, yet have working conditions and pensions which those in the private sector can only dream about.
Sad thing is Dave and his poodle Cleggster haven’t gone further and allowed the icy wind of privatisation to blow through the corridors of broadcasting house.
That would truly be an event worth breaking out the champagne for.
Just turn the BBC into a voluntary subscription service and watch it die on the vine.
I sleeping in my own bed tonight folks, are you?

Come on…how important is the BBC nowadays for influencing opinion? Don’t you know that ‘the kids’ don’t watch as much telly as they now text and type online. Pretty soon nobody under 30 will have a telly – they will get their entertainment and ‘opinions’ from twitter and live blogs.
No you are very wrong.
Twitter, facebook, blogs etc give the masses a blow off valve to vent their feelings. Thus freeing the establishment to go about their self serving business.
The BBC has the potential to be the voice of reason in all of this. Bloody shame that their political bias makes this impossible.
Instead of which Al JaBeeBa is the voice of treason!
Just had the misfortune to listen to luvvies moaning on Radio 4 about budget cuts for The Arts.
If the programme was balanced, I would have expected to hear something from the point of view of taxpayers whose money ends up funding The Arts Council and its subsidies.
Didn’t hear anything at all.
Boaden might argue that blogs, and the www are conspiring to discredit, the BBC. Doesn’t the silly cow realise that her own staff have done the job only too well, without any help from bloggers. Nor does using The Guardian for the bulk of job adverts help her case.
Yes i listened to that too. The Luvvies are revolting.
They just do not get it do they?
The problem is that they have been “getting it” (easy taxpayers’ money) for too long. Now the taxpayer can’t afford luxuries and is easing up a little on spending, they squeal.
Perhaps the luvvies might get into the big wide world and get their funding from private sources. Many a good artist does, but you seldom hear about it in the media.
I’ve just had a thought.
Next time a deficit denier says “stop the evil cuts” Osborne should just reply, “We haven’t made any cuts.”
That’s the problem he really should have.
The more the luvvies squeal the more popular he’ll be.
Sadly for them, they shot their collective bolts long ago. All they’ve got left is an irritating whining background noise which turns people off.
No, I don’t want to watch the Boys from the Black stuff or Dennis Potter and his miserable crap again. Try something new.
I’m just gob smacked. I listened to Postie Al’s response live and have to say it was pitiful. Yet when I listened to the BBCs edited and cut version I was listening to a totally different oration.
The BBC deserve credit for turning the dire into the inspired.
Propping up the Labour party, it’s what Pravda does.
Was I dire ?? ‘Kin ‘ell !! Praise indeed ! I thought I’d droned out total dross. Thank God Ed was worse during PMQ or people would have thought we were a credible Opposition rather than rejects from Kim Jong Il’s Academy for left wing losers.
The Beeb used to do that to Dubya’s speeches – turn gibberish into something “statesmanlik” – blinking miraculous.
BBC3 Young Voters Question Time chaired by Labour twat Richard Bacon and Burnt Bum and Will Straw make up half the panel.
At least Konnie Huq managed to get away from him. Remind me – what hard drug was it that got him sacked from childrens’ TV programme Blue Peter?
Should not have been re-employed by the BBC.
Richard Bacon = the very worst presenter on the BBC and that says something.
Come on you spurs
And where was gordon today, any day really, since the General Election?
What is he doing with his empty days since he chooses not to be an acting MP.
Presumably he gets up about midday and has the housekeeper cook him scrambled eggs. Then maybe he takes a leisurely bath and after that watches a film on his skybox.
I suppose he allows his housekeeper to serve him afternoon tea about 4/5pm no doubt with home baked shortbread and then he spends an hour or so researching job opportunities on the web and perhaps emailing off a cv or two to someone like merkel and/or omaha.
I guess in the evening he has a brief telephone conversation with sarah about the welfare of his lads before diving into dinner with his brother and discussions about the future of the church of s-cotla/nd and his possible role as saviour of a-fric/a as opposed to bliar’s role as the saviour of the m-iddl/e e-as/t
My tweets are always informative,instructive,interesting and infantile.
One out of four. Must try harder.
I’m optimistic that the government’s cuts will lead to higher long term unemployment.
I’m optimistic that the recovery will falter and the economy will go into decline.
I’m optimistic that our children will suffer from a worse education system.
I’m optimistic that our police will not be able to cope and criminals spared prison will cause mayhem in our towns and cities.
I’m optimistic that the elderly and poor will suffer even more misery and deprivation.
I’m optimistic that the banks will move their operations outside the UK.
I’m optimistic that the unions will bring the country to a halt.
I’m optimistic that healthcare outcomes will go into decline.
I’m optimistic that the transport system will collapse.
I’m optimistic that women will resist equality of the pension age.
I’m optimistic that our defence forces will not be able to defend the country.
I’m optimistic that the economic policies I devised with Gordon and Ed will be vindicated in the end.
I’m optimistic about the prospects of my new Shadow Cabinet team.
I’m optimistic the BBC will stuff the Tory toffs.
I’m optimistic that I will be Prime Minister in 2015.
Not optimistic.
Simplistic.
or possibly Autistic.
Solipsistic.
The BBC has banned offensive remarks. Stupid, joyless f***ing c***s.
I thought that Al Beeb said that Order-Order was bad for the sole…
which they keep buying at our expense, with fine wines of course followed by taxi travel….
I have never ever heard of Helen Boaden before.
I have never ever seen her picture before.
I have always been a good judge of character
So am I wrong in thinking that she is a Left wing Lesbian?
You are not wrong. Look at the colour she dyes her hair.
And remember, British jobs for British workers, but if you say it you’re a bigot. Like that bigoted woman.
Comedic genius flanked by two overpaid BBC twats that don’t know how to handle the situation.
Look at Ed’s statesmanlike bearing, fills you with confidence doesn’t it?
Aye she has a face akin to a bulldog trying to lick piss off a thistle
She helped me get through an all-women short list in order to become an MP.
The Dromedary household is smug,smug,smug !!
So why is Harlot Harridan looking like she’s got the hump? Did the dildo battery run out?
Batteries died – no problem. Just buy another one and put it on expenses stupid! No rules are broken by this perfectily reasonable use of taxpayers money…..
Who is that odd looking lass sitting to the right of militwit?? and just look at the serially depressed mrs balls sitting to the left of harpy harriett.
They’re a really odd looking bunch, odder even than gordon’s front bench lot were towards the end of his parliament.
They really do not look like a government in waiting.
Which is why they are not a government in waiting. The next Labour PM of what remains of this once promising nation, has very likely not even been elected to parliament quite yet. Although he/she has very surely already been SELECTED.
IMO, and notwithstanding unforeseen ( unforeseen by many of us anyway ) events;
Our current servants of the Establishment will stay in office but of course not in power, until the debt with interest has been largely paid off. At which point, and not a day earlier we will get another Labour government of sorts.
History will then repeat itself yet again. Only next time you will be begging to be Chipped.
Move along now. Nothing to read here, it is not intended for publication.
Twitter suddenly overcapacity – anything to do with the 15 protestors who’ve got into the Department of Business, Innovation & Skills (tweeted by Sky)? Why would protestors want to break into the DBIS?
Now that is My Kind of woman!!
It’s only fair that the cuts affect every voter across the political board. A large Scotch in there John, if you please. Put it on my account. Of course, now that the house bubble is about to burst, it’s time to maximise the profit from that taxpayer funded second home, and move into an offshore tax haven. Have you got a ring fenced pension plan? I have. Ever thought of standing for Parliament?
It’s no good being pessimistic about the future!
With the right opportunity, you too, like me, could be living the dream.
Bet you’d like to be a fiver behind me !
Media slag and drunken bum Peter Oborne is getting a right kicking from Telegraph readers for writing this incredibly stupid and biased piece of shite:
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/peteroborne/100059977/osborne-may-be-doing-the-right-things-but-ive-rarely-heard-him-give-a-worse-or-less-sensitive-speech/
It was just a few years ago that Peter Oborne was telling us what a genius, man of principle, and political colossus Gordon Brown was.
It’s no use getting emotional over half a million workers being thrown to the wolves.
Serves them right for toddling down to the Labour exchange, and taking that job with the council.
Fuck the public sector scum, how come so many of the c u n t z were off work protesting today. I WAS AT WORK, but then again I don’t work in the freeloading public sector.
GET A REAL JOB YOU IDLE TWATS.
So has the private sector got an extra 500,000 jobs going spare then?
I remember Oborne claiming that Brown was a ‘political colossus’ and economic genius.
Was poor old Paddy O’Borne pissed at the time?
I think he meant colostomy bag, not colossus.
The Labour party must have bribed Peter Oborne by buying him a few drinks.

According to toilets edmilitwit reminds him of an old song
‘the working class can kiss my ass, I got the foreman’s job at last’
That phrase , of course, says everything about labour and union leaders because neither of them are remotely interested in the real working classes, all they want is personal power and money.
But at this time, and in toilets context, it shows that labour are very fractured and disunited!
Topical, witty and devastatingly on the button as usual nell!
Ever thought of doing stand up comedy?
You don’t need me for stand-up comedy , aljohnson today was better even than tony hancock!!
here’s a joke for you nell
before the election you constantly posted on how much you cared about the dead troops in Afghanistan but now it’s your hero Dave’s problem you couldn’t give a shit about them
the punchline is you are a disgusting partisan hypocrite
geddit ?
Angela ‘LadyMan’ Eagle brought on to Newsnight to give the man-on-the-street perspective (a union man).
Still living in fantasy spend, spend, spend land.
Note I rarely interrupt a Liebour politician !
Noted Paxo.. also noted that you didn’t like Wheatcroft’s answer that didn’t follow the Al Jab Beeba line of cuts bad, spending good
)
As there is a wide readership, I’d like to say to the following:
1) Labour MPs, party members: Shut the fuck up and kill yourselves
2) The BBC: Isn’t it nepotism of the very worst sort to keep giving presenting jobs to commissioning editor Alan Yentob, who’s a commissioning editor and former controller of BBC1, in other words, an executive and not a presenter by profession?
3) Associated Newspapers: Have you ever considered getting your film critic Chris Tookey to see a shrink? Boy’s got some issues
4) Labour MPs, party members: Please remember to shut the fuck up and kill yourselves
nice one
Botney. A name to conjour with!
You oiks are all in this together.
To quote the eminent Dr Ray Stantz of the Ghostbusters: “I’ve worked in the private sector. They expect results”.

As i said just carry on spending!
You virtually all miss the point with regards to the BBC.
The BBC is NOT right wing or left wing. The BBC is not working for the Labour Party, or any other political party.
The BBC is the property, invention, love child, and most importantly the mouth-piece of the British/World Establishment. As such it is far more important, well connected and infinitely more powerful the any form of elected government, and therefore prime minister.
The BBC is these things whether those that work for The BBC know it is or not.
The Job of The BBC is to propagate the illusion that we live is some kind of free democratically accountable independent country, when no such thing has EVER actually existed anywhere in the entire universe, never mind in the United KINGDOM or should I say QUEENDOM?
All agendas are handed down from above. Right and left are simply two cheeks of the exact same stinking wholly Fabian/FASCIST back-side.
The BBC is just the oral shit that comes out of the middle.
We are divided. As such we are very badly ruled, dishonestly scammed, repeatedly impoverished, ever more cruelly taxed till the pips squeak, and therefore secretly ENSLAVED. Although it is fair to say that it could indeed be very much worse.
More so then ever before we do not work for ourselves, even if we own and run our own companies. WE WORK ALMOST ENTIRELY FOR A VERY SMALL GROUP OF RULING ELITES THAT EFFECTIVELY OWN ALL OF THE WORLDS CENTRAL BANKS.
Money makes the world go round so they say. Which is most likely not exactly or technically the case, however it may as well be.
Therefore those that have long since controlled most of the worlds money supply, not only have been centrally controlling the ENTIRE PLANET for something like 200 years, ( which is the very definition of COMMUNISM ), they OWN YOU, and your family and of course all of your main political, charitable, educational, scientific, informational institutions, the armed forces, and just about every thing else of any real importance, therefore also what little remains of your conscious and sub-conscious mind.
Which is a long sentence, which should tell you everything you need to know about the true nature of the BBC, and why absolutely nothing that spouts from any agent of the alternative or MSM must ever be taken at face value.
My advice.
Always ask yourself WHY are the proverbial THEY telling me this utter lie or half truth, and sometimes more importantly WHY NOW?
Dear Mr Atlas
Are you sure you are feeling alright this morning? Do you need to up the medication a little?
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Well my last post before I have a commiseratory can and go to bed.
Never in my born days have I ever seen such a pathetic performance from a pair of so called politicians sitting in the liebour ranks as I saw today.
Totally and utterly embarrasing,and to cap it all Pravda then attempting to spin this so much so they must be dizzy.
What a complete and utter load of you know what,it is beyond me that anyone in their right mind can attempt to pick holes in the knowlege that we are in debt and we need to get out of it,just what do they not understand in the statement:-
WE ARE SPENDING MORE THAN WE HAVE,just what do these deniers think will happen if we do that,ask your bank or your morgage lender and they will tell you in no uncertain terms.
Clearly Moniker Foundation’s attempts to cover it’s tracks in pursuit of world domination is working successfully as, if represented on your pie chart, it would fall somewhere between Oxford University and Deutsche Bank, both in scale and location. There was a concern that it would show up like a Prince Albert on an airport full-body scanner.
so that’s a pie chart showing who has plenty of time to surf the web ?
Correct.
To all at the BBC, Its about time you went subscription only or just closed down cos your shows are shit, To Mps and their hags, stop wasting my money and try a real job before you tell me how to do mine.
time for a facebook campaign “make the BBC history”
I suggest a march to television centre of people dressed up as dinosaurs.
Spot-on, Guido! Keep the bastards on the run! They know their days are numbered!
whatever happened to saturday night?
BBC furious this morning and in full propaganda mode again. First two papers on their paper review were the Mirror and the Guardian. The two people they invite on the review are Toilets Maguire and Plagarising Pierce. They send a presenter out to find out whether people think it is fair in……Labour voting Barking.
Has nobody yet worked out what Osbourne and his EU stooges have done?
The money saving cover has fooled just about everyone so far and the reality has not been recognized for what it is.
The coalition has simply prepared the foundations for the EU federal superstate, is it just a coincidence that Osbourne has slashed all sovereign government departments while leaving EU compliant structures in place? Is it just an accident that he has taken an axe to departments that control UK independent sovereign governance while somehow leaving the EU federal state apparatus a clear run to take over?
Look at the cuts and look what is left and look at the vacuum in government and look who is ready and waiting to fill that that void with a free and clear path to federal EU takeover of the UK government. Did you really think the government would give up so much power and control and income without there being an ulterior motive? Sovereign national government moves out and federal EU government moves into the space provided.
Look at at how we are saving the poor taxpayers money they cry, ooooh are we not wonderful by rolling back the state? But after you strip away the cover of saving money what is left? We have been betrayed and our sovereign independence has been given away in a very cunning and clever way but the reality is that when the axe has finished hacking away at our sovereign UK government structures the EU federal government structures will move in and take over.
The UK has been handed over by traitors by stealth and deception and people are applauding the treachery, hooooray lets celebrate the theft of our sovereign nation eh? You idiots will not be laughing when all those empty government offices are re occupied with EU mandarins and EU commissars and they start applying federal EU control.
Osbourne is not a saviour you bloody fools, he has just handed the keys to the UK over to the EU overlords, you should not be celebrating you should be crying right now.
No really? Just how did you think the EU would take over the running of the UK? Did you think there would be a referendum first?
You bloody gullible fools out there who couldnt put two clues together if your lives depended on it have just been had big time. The EU takeover was never going to be open and honest and above board, they were always addicted to deception and stealth and dishonesty.
You bloody fools are simply cheering the heavy chains of servitude and the rule by a foreign empire you never voted for and can never remove. What did you think Osbourne was doing? Osbourne has just sold us into slavery.
Hail Sailor Dave, the Carrier Man
Defending us with an empty can
See him empty all the prisons, too
Hugging hoodies turned them all true blue
And although the EU’s upped the rent
Who cares about loans that Gordon spent?
Dave’s good for it. He’ll just borrow more
Saving that sacred foreign aid core
It’s the Brits that have to integrate
In brave Dave’s new green and global state
Brilliant and so true, you sir are a poet and a visionary.
The tory traitors have got people cheering their own nations destruction, they have managed to create a situation where the handing over of UK sovereignty and independence is cheered and supported.
Very clever of them!
Cameron and Brown have managed to break and then sell the UK into foreign servitude and people are actually cheering that betrayal in the media and in the house of commons.
Tories are traitors, just like their Labour bum chums. Interested only in personal gain and profit, and fuck the country.
Only nationalist governments across Europe can save their countries from the poisonous grip of Marxists, Globalists and profiteering scum.
The Green Bank will become the highway robber of the next decade.
The only reason I can see why there is cross party agreement about this topic is the potential for politicians to gain from the misery of the electorate. They stand to make millions out of the administration involved with making energy in Europe and the West more expensive by the quarter, whilst Second World and Far Eastern countries make a mockery of the small-scale scrimping and saving done by the so-called affluent societies.
Not a mutter or grumble on this one it seems, yet a visit to the gasoline pumps or the thud of the energy bill on the doormat will reveal the monster lurking behind the speeches made yesterday and the months preceding it.
Conservation and efficient energy use is indisputably a very pressing target by all world powers, yet the ones it seems that are paying needlessly for a goal – for which most of the world are not participating – are “trendy” nations, who in want to set examples to the world, but whose leaders want the ordinary citizens to head this “sacrifice” to Baal, while they themselves get rich in the process.
I know this thread is about the BEEB, who have for decades preached about global warming and other socialist issues, but never growing thin for lack of money given them by a bullying pay-for-view system: otherwise known as the TV License.
Thanks for letting me have this “grump” this morning.
The TV licence = the Pravda poll tax whether you watch their channels or not.

Morning anonymongs and anonyc-unts (that’s you Labour folk). It’s the day after George called time on benefit scroungers, or as I like to call them, Labour’s base. No wonder the Labour frontbench were so miserable. The years of institutionalised state dependency in Labour heartlands were being dismantled. Now the cider swilling layabouts, who used to get paraletic and then get a helpful lift to the polling station by Labour activists, will have to get off their couches and get a job or face losing their much loved weekly benefit payments that have kept them in White Lightning and pork pies for the last decade.

Why is Stephanie Flanders still allowed to pose as an unbiased and objective ‘economics expert’ on the BBC when we all know that she is just a bimbo for Labour politicians?
Does the BBC reallly think she has any credibility left or are they happy to have another blatant anti-Tory propagandist working for them?
Does Steph have rickets or is she just a very busy lady?
She’s not called Lilo-Lil for nothing!
They’re refusing to allow me any visitors here. Even Peter Sutcliffe’s allowed visitors.

Memo to Helen Boaden
On the evidence of what I heard of this morning’s “Today” programme, it appears that the canteen culture in the BBC newsroom has given up all pretence to impartial “balanced” reporting. I have stopped taking any notice whatsoever of Evan “cuts cuts cuts” Davies and I cancelled my tv licence four months ago.

“California gubernatorial candidate Meg Whitman’s campaign team attempted to share with her Twitter followers an endorsement from a police association. Unfortunately, the campaign press secretary entered an incorrect or incomplete Bit.ly URL in the Tweet, which took clickers to a YouTube video featuring a bespectacled, long-haired Japanese man in a tutu and leggings rocking out on a bass guitar. And for whatever reason, the Tweet, which went out on the 18th, has remained active through today.”

Hell. Stephanie Flanders has referenced Polly Toynbee in her blog as a credible commentator on the feelings of the poor! The BBC is truly plumbing the depths, what with this and Newsnight this week.
