"Why all the reporting about Corbyns useless leadership (which I have say is true) and plotting against him then? Are we to expect the reporters reporting this to be sacked because they're going against official bias guidelines?" Yes, the looney left will come on here swearing that BBC has a right wing bias. But BBC is definitely left wing. Every week there's a thought piece article about how fucking great life in Cuba is or "the softer side of Stalin" | |||

"I do hope everyone is equally as annoyed by the right-wing bias displayed by most of the written press in this country." If it's a private newspaper it can do what it likes. I couldn't care less what the Guardian or Daily Fail write, you know what you're getting when you buy the paper. Tax funded media should be neutral though. | |||

"I've also never heard the BBC acknowledge that Gaddafi and Saddam Hussein were both left wing socialists too" . What you mean like the Chinese government, yeah there murdering scumbags too but wait there's Trudeau in Canada and half the EU who are left wing and well not murdering citizens, come to think of it Reagan and thatcher were right wing and didn't really murder their citizens either, well maybe not thatcher that's a bad example ha... But you get the idea. It's entirely possible to be either left or right wing and not be a scumbag but scumbags often come in left wing and right varieties | |||

Statistically speaking, more people have been murdered by their own governments than war, plague or anything else. | |||

"I think we all accept that the BBC is, shall we say, more sympathetic to the Left Wing view of the world. Given it is staffed by ex Labour Party and Guardian people that isn't surprising. But to me that isn't as bad as the continual drip drip of negativity post the EU vote. The BBC was the major pedlar of all things 'Project Fear' as it accorded with their left / Socialist / EU is great bias. OK to some extent. But we are now seeing a deliberate distortion of factual reporting. Two examples today. Headline 1: "Bosses more cautious on jobs after Brexit, survey finds" And during a very long piece quoting 'experts' (like IHS Markit again) we got: " Britain was entering a new phase of prolonged economic uncertainty following the referendum on EU membership." and then we get the real point of the piece: "we urge the government to prioritise maintaining the free movement of people across the EU during its negotiations." So the BBC finds a survey of 2,100 businesses and uses it to peddle the 'Free Movement' crap that the British people rejected. And right at the bottom of the piece it says: "A total of 8% of employers expect to increase staff numbers, 4% forecast a decrease and 87% anticipate no change." Now forgive my being simple but those numbers tell me a different story than that peddled by the BBC Business Correspondent. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37341094 Headline 2: "The inflation monster is stirring" Kamal Ahmed, Economics editor, somehow manages to create an image of rampant inflation when its holding steady at 0.6% and of course within his piece blames Brexit. He says: "Some economists are predicting inflation of 3% by the end of next year, above the Bank of England's target of 2%" Without naming them? Basic Journalism surely? And forgetting to mention 'economists' were actually expecting the figure to be over 0.7%. The Retail Prices Index which includes mortgage interest payments, dropped to 1.8% in August from 1.9% in July. But no mention of that. "Number 10 is watching nervously." Is it? What when the inflation figures have actually remained static and are some 35% of the B of E monitoring figure? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37349812 I just think we are entitled to a far more accurate and independent assessment of news, events and politics from a taxpayer funded organisation?" Yes I agree we are entitled to accurate unbiased news from a taxpayer funded organisation.....but it kind of represents much of what is wrong with the public sector x | |||

"Back to the thread. There's a saying that sums it up 'believe 10% of what you hear and 100% of what you see' Or in other words, for the dim witted (mentioning no names) the media all lie and unless you physically see or experience it it may not be true. It also means all reports or views are merely opinions until its happened." . I saw dynamo walk down a building and across the Thames.... I'm only 99.9999% it's bollocks. | |||

"I once had a debate with a very nice chap who insisted they were atheists as well.... And despite me telling him that Hitler was very much religious, despite me pointing out that every German army, police and officer wore a belt with gott mit uns written on it and despite me pointing out the Fuehrer's personal pledge which the Nazi party chose themselves of,i swear to god this sacred oath and I even took him through the many many cases of Nazi obsession with religious artifacts.... He still maintained they were atheists!" Religion is that area where you come out with the most ridiculous statements because you can't hide your contempt for it. It is true that old Adolf liked to use religion to support his political ideas. Just like Osama Bin Laden did. However you willfully ignore the fact that religious prisoners in the concentration camp had their own badge to identify them (i.e because there were so many of them in there). From memory of my visit to the camp, there were 6 categories in total. Jews (obviously), woofters, gypsies, political opponents, religious people and one other that escapes me. The fact that his regime murdered enough people precisely because they were religious should make you question whether he was really a man of faith... if you could try and remain objective about the subject. Even fecking Henry the 8th didn't write a book a drivel and insist the church had to proudly display it next to the bible! | |||

"In fact if memory serves me right wasn't Franco a Tory?, in fact wasn't he a monarchist Tory, backed if not mistaken by the Nazis and Mussolini....I just can't remember who the other side were in the Spanish civil war... Your the expert, remind me again" Yes he was a Tory, a totalitarian dictator and a twat but not a fascist. He manipulated the Falange and the Monarchists to defeat Communism in Spain. He accepted help from Italy and Germany to do this yes but that help was given in the hope that he would join their side in WW2, which he refused to do. He was only interested in Spain and eventually returned the country to democracy. Now I am not defending the things he did but had the communists (fascists basically) taken over Spain then things would have turned out a lot worse | |||

If you look up totalitarian dictator, you'll see the word fascist used next to it... I like the way you say he returned democracy. Lol what 50 years later and he didn't anyway it was king Carlos who he put back on the throne that brought in the new constitution and democracy... Franco just oversaw sending his people to concentration camps for thirty years... Or gulags as you like to say. The only thing that kept him in power was the shameful west who fucking sucked up to him because he hated the communists who were the new enemy, yeah your a fascist cunt who's murdering your own citizens but hey join NATO.... Because I real enemy is the extreme left over there.... Not the extreme right who we've just let join us | |||

So yes Adolf fits perfectly into what could be called a religious person but never an atheist.... No atheist would write their own oath starting with I swear to almighty God?. | |||

Lol what 50 years later and he didn't anyway it was king Carlos who he put back on the throne that brought in the new constitution and democracy... Franco just oversaw sending his people to concentration camps for thirty years... Or gulags as you like to say. The only thing that kept him in power was the shameful west who fucking sucked up to him because he hated the communists who were the new enemy, yeah your a fascist cunt who's murdering your own citizens but hey join NATO.... Because I real enemy is the extreme left over there.... Not the extreme right who we've just let join us " No you won't. Totalitarianism is about control which can cover a wide spectrum. Fascism implies a specific political ideology that emphasises state ideology above all things, the welfare of the state is primary whereas the welfare/rights of individuals are secondary or not considered at all. Remind you of anywhere? | |||

"I once had a debate with a very nice chap who insisted they were atheists as well.... And despite me telling him that Hitler was very much religious, despite me pointing out that every German army, police and officer wore a belt with gott mit uns written on it and despite me pointing out the Fuehrer's personal pledge which the Nazi party chose themselves of,i swear to god this sacred oath and I even took him through the many many cases of Nazi obsession with religious artifacts.... He still maintained they were atheists! Religion is that area where you come out with the most ridiculous statements because you can't hide your contempt for it. It is true that old Adolf liked to use religion to support his political ideas. Just like Osama Bin Laden did. However you willfully ignore the fact that religious prisoners in the concentration camp had their own badge to identify them (i.e because there were so many of them in there). From memory of my visit to the camp, there were 6 categories in total. Jews (obviously), woofters, gypsies, political opponents, religious people and one other that escapes me. The fact that his regime murdered enough people precisely because they were religious should make you question whether he was really a man of faith... if you could try and remain objective about the subject. Even fecking Henry the 8th didn't write a book a drivel and insist the church had to proudly display it next to the bible! . You couldn't get more of a man of faith and belief than Oliver Cromwell....I suggest you have a good look at his actions. Now if you want to follow Jesus's preachings I'll happily call you religious, but I don't see many Christians doing it... In fact anybody accruing wealth isn't following the teachings are they?.. So yes Adolf fits perfectly into what could be called a religious person but never an atheist.... No atheist would write their own oath starting with I swear to almighty God?. " Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps Hitler was the type of person that said what he thought people needed to hear rather than being a stickler for objective truth? | |||

What when the inflation figures have actually remained static and are some 35% of the B of E monitoring figure? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-37349812 I just think we are entitled to a far more accurate and independent assessment of news, events and politics from a taxpayer funded organisation? more bbc bashing for the sake of bashing.... i'm guessing not paying the license fee.... anyway i love it when you go on a rant like this, because you look at everything so singularly... so taking ya points.... "somehow manages to create an image of rampant inflation when its holding steady at 0.6% and of course within his piece" that because if you read for example, the FT, economist and bloomberg... as well as the bbc... it had been expected that inflation would have been 0.7 or 0.8% this month... are we bashing them as well? "Some economists are predicting inflation of 3% by the end of next year, above the Bank of England's target of 2%" Without naming them? Basic Journalism surely? you can always look at the last OBR set of figures where they did revise economist forcasts post brexit.... you can also look at the BoE last quarterly report where they did exactly the same..... even in the minutes of the last BoE monthly interest rate meeting, they mentioned it....... are we bashing them as well??? "The Retail Prices Index which includes mortgage interest payments, dropped to 1.8% in August from 1.9% in July. But no mention of that." remember that interest rate cut to 0.25%.... which lead to banks cutting mortgage rates..... ta daaaa!!!!!! also in mid july energy firms cust gas and electric bills...... " Fabio your comments are getting less well researched as time goes on. Did you read the two examples I gave? No I suspect you didn't. And for the record I do pay my licence fee and always have ... maybe get your facts right before making personal innuendo Old Son. | |||

"In fairness I'm sat listening to Jeremy vine on radio 2 and the news guy just said ..... "Unemployment during and after the referendum fell again despite warnings from remainers saying it would rise" whats your views on firearm holders with depression ? . I don't think anybody should access to firearms unless it's through a shooting club and then with any luck other members might be able to spot signs of mental illness coming on!. It's not that I don't like guns or that I think there dangerous but I think a significant numbers of humans are twats and another significant number are likely to have a mental breakdown, therefore you need to restrict them as much possible without physically banning them because I'm even more anti ban than anti gun In Scotland there is a big business in deer stalking, many own guns for stalking home & abroad without use of gun clubs you also have to consider farmers, game keepers etc . often farmers are the main candidates for depression . You know, I must know about 40 or 50 farmers and I can only think of two who are shooters and they both shoot clays, there all too busy fucking farming to go out shooting animals, in fact one farmer I know actively protects "his" badgers, he'd probably shoot you if he caught you shooting them (buckshot obviously) he's not a tree hugger he just knows his badgers haven't got tb and he knows there fiercely territorial so no rogue badgers are "getting in" as far as he's concerned" Presume the badgers voted brexit then... | |||
