Start the Week Thread 14 September 2020

More National Anniversaries – Tuesday marks the 80th Anniversary of The Battle of Britain Day. The Far Left Biased BBC is likely to let this pass with a few ‘celebrity entertainment shows whilst decent people will remember those very “few” who did and gave so much to prevent German becoming the leading language and undesirables being extinguished. Lest We Forget- together with the thousands of civilian British murdered by Germans ..Over to you

    BBC TV news just described their overall 1% pay rise across the board as a cut “in-reality”…. That would be BBC reality of course!

    Lots of their “subjects” are about to find what cuts really mean!

    So Israel signs historic peace agreements with Bahrain and UAE and this was brokered by Donald Trump.

    But the BBC does not put this anywhere on their homepage and on their news homepage it occupies a very minor spot that is easy to overlook (to the side and no image).

    It is currently on World news and in the Middle-East regional news but not in the US & Canada regional news.

    Click on the BBC article AND THE BBC ARE AGAINST THE PEACE DEAL. They go on and on about the Palestinians saying there should be no peace deal without first the Palestinian issue being resolved. They also say no other Arab country should sign a peace deal with Israel.

    The BBC want a full on boycott of Israel and no peace deals with Israel until the Palestinian issue is settled.

    This is just another example of the BBC not reporting on the news but actually campaigning. The BBC is a full on CAMPAIGNING agency. It will mislead, twist and fake stories to push their own narratives for change. They tell us how we are supposed to act and what we are supposed to think and what is acceptable and what is not acceptable in this world.

      The BBC have now promoted the prominence of this story – it occupies a subsidiary position on their homepage and a subsidiary position with image on their news homepage. However this was not done until the article had been edited to ensure it had been twisted to a pro-Palestinian anti-Israel narrative.

      The BBC must be feeling pretty impotent that they can no long influence things. Not to mention the conspicuous silence concerning all things China: imminent failure of the three gorges dam, food shortages, economic collapse, locusts, mass floods.

      Not to mention the conspicuous silence concerning all things impacting their beloved CCP-led China: imminent failure of the three gorges dam, food shortages, economic collapse, locusts, mass floods.

      BBC, (your contribution well above re Palestine)
      hallelujah!!
      Despite YouTube and the rest trying to desperately limit any common sense and truth seeping out, we know better. Thanks to the internet which allows the cat out the bag on a daily basis.

    Taking a rest from the BBC news I turned to C4 with Jon Snow. What I witnessed was a masterclass in creating the story you want the public to hear. In this case over the lack of testing. First a young doc. Our Jon led Every question in such a way that the only response possible was yes the government are to blame.

    Then a lady from the NHS, exactly the same tactics.

    Then a German Official saying how bloody brilliantly it was being handled in the EU.

    Oh how good it would be to have a national news service that simply wanted to put out facts instead of propaganda.

    Midweek thread opening in a minute . The Annual BBC report has now been published online – in the preamble the new DG says this …

    “ Our guiding principle is that we are a BBC for all – a universal public service to serve and represent everyone in every part of the UK. Our focus must be on making sure we deliver outstanding and unique value to all audiences – those who pay for us and are in effect our customers – in return for their licence fee.

    “…. we must renew our commitment to impartiality; focus on unique, high impact content; extract more from online and build our commercial income. That is now our focus and challenge going forward. We should take nothing for granted.”

    Reading the preamble as echoes of the reports from the German 6th army before it was wiped out at Stalingrad ….

      Dobyns,
      “”My only question – is the Penally camp a bit too close to a small village which depends on tourism and it may have a negative impact on the tourism industry in Pembrokeshire?””
      In the Governments haste to prove to the other signatories of the UN’s Agenda 21, they will not give 2 f**ks about any small village being impacted.
      250 mostly muslim young men wandering around the village?
      What could go wrong?
