You see what you want to see.
In fact, no-one sees it more clearly than you. I don't think you'd make much as a critic. Also... You INSIST on confusing being 'left-wing' with being 'politically correct'. In short - YET ANOTHER THREAD all about the 'lefty BBC' from one of the regulars on here with nothing else, or better, to think or write about. I really wish this carp could return to the politics forum, where it escaped from and where it could be more easily ignored. |

No I saw what was on the TV last night, do keep up, I described it in the original comment :)
Sorry for confusing the issue of bringing millions of unvetted migrants from war zones over being on a left-right spectrum, it's hard not to with: 1. It always being the left wing parties wanting it and 2. The people on the left saying anyone who doesn't want it is far right (to crush all debate and sense). Err.... Got your candles ready for tommorow in case anything bad happens tonight, and some way of blaming it on Trump and May? |

the bbc is not left wing - it just follows a guardianista type narrarive - more liberal in philosophy where there are no bad people
no bad eu, but there are the perceived bad people who they concentrate on for creating news they have done several jobs on corbyn in three seperate campaigns against him previously - farage, ukip, eu elections(pro), supported clegg v farage, brexit (80 percent of guests pro eu) their question time is a disgrace they talk UK plc down most of the time - they slavishly follow all pronounced by their eu masters(they even get money from them) all bad economic stories followed - totally biased and worst of all is the avoidance of any negative stories related to their friends of peace etc etc |

It has always been a tool for state propaganda and mindless entertainment, the only difference is that it's become round the clock instead of a few hours in the evening.

The bbc are about as hard hitting as a flyweight boxer who hasn't eaten for a week.
Rather than letting that money wasting, diversity obsessed, joke outfit ruin my day, I choose not to watch any of their output and it feels rather good. Inform, educate and entertain, you're having a laugh. More like agenda agenda and more agenda. |

Isn't it amazing the number of "mentally ill persons of Asian heritage" who European countries kindly allow to enter for respite from their war torn lands (which, incidently these individuals do not feel are worth defending themselves)who express their gratitude with bombs and vehicle attacks! (Sorry about the grammar, but it is New Year's Eve)!

I wouldn't dare criticise your grammar, Dr Slicer, my first post was intended to be a parody, I do hope JC understands.

What are the BBC afraid of, why don't they simply give us the facts as they come in?
One of their reports said the Germans are providing safe spots for women to protect them from men during the New Years celebrations. What men, white Christian men? I don't think so. So why does the BBC always seek to protect these types from being exposed? |

'Blaming it on Trump and May'?????
The 2 pieces of perfection who are so much better than any others, who are by far the best of a bad lot, whose ridicule is always countered with "Well, Corbyn, Hilary, Blair, Ramsay MacDonald wouldn't have been or done it better" or "what did 'They' do when it was them?" As for the BBC - It is inherently a right wing organisation run by 'the establishment' and it always has been. The 'Left-wing bias' tag is one it enjoys. However it is the epitome of all that is wrong with positive discrimination, with political correctness and diversity in front of everything that it puts out. There is no real philosophy, save for its journalists, most of whom are in some way linked to the Conservatives. But there is an ideology which frustrates most people who watch or listen to it. If you want to get REAL indignation spend a few days listening to Radio 5. It's nothing to do with Left-wing. It's just awful. |

I kind of expect not to see my posts on here when I next check in. At least 50% of them get removed and the forum isn't being run properly. So - Until next time I can be arsed.... Happy new year. |

"As for the BBC - It is inherently a right wing organisation"
LOL funnier than any christmas cracker on the 25th :) Merry non year discrimanatory festival night ![]() Anway, I forgot to mention, in that news item they brought up the recent New Year incidents in germany. They (the "right wing bbc" , the news orginisation that initially refused to cover it when everyone else was then didn't mention the group identified as doing it when for everyone else in the world it was the main story!) are STILL totally mealy mouthing about THAT one and the demographic that everyone else in the world holds responsible! Right I'm off to bed for a nap. My indignation at political correctness gone mad is taking it out of me ![]() ![]() |

More tripe from studyform , the vast majority of BBC journalists are not linked to the conservatives , and many are labour supporters and communists , and anti British , well some BBC employees have even been traitors and communist spies
in the past. Who knows what the present mob are up to Many of them aren't even English |

Journalists themselves admit that most of them are left-wing.
It's universally accepted that the BBC has a strong left-wing bias. Quotes like this are commonplace: The BBC is “a publicly-funded urban organisation with an abnormally large proportion of younger people, of people in ethnic minorities and almost certainly of gay people, compared with the population at large”. All this, he said, “creates an innate liberal bias inside the BBC”. –Andrew Marr https://biasedbbc.org/quotes-of-shame/ |

Watching adverts over the course of the last year in particular, it appears I am living in some sort of alternative universe as most of the couples I know are white men and white women, but according to my television the only ones that exist are black men and white women.

Thread about the BBC#
Starts with "refugees" (their word for migrants) rest of it's just the same nonsense from the brainwashed who think the "real" news is being delivered from a guy in his mum's spare bedroom who has an overt agenda. God, can we please make 2018 the year where everyone just tries a little bit harder to be less stupid. |
