IRON LADY FOUND!

Bless the BBC, They have finally found an “Iron Lady” that they like. No, not Thatcher, they hate her. But rather, Angela Merkel.  The BBC’s Stephen Evans was eulogising her on Today @ 8.38 and the consensus is that her quest to control the EU is a good thing. Following that, as a nod in the direction of..cough… Euroscepticism, they trooped on ..David Owen. Yes, him. His big theme was… getting Turkey to join the EU. Unbelievable. This  is Arkham Asylum on the license fee.

YOU SAY EURO, I SAY DRACHMA, LET’S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF!

Biased BBC contributor Alan writes…

“Pro Europeans fighting back…..Ball’s answer to massive debt is more debt, the BBC answer to Euro implosion is more Europe.

Enoch Powell has for the BBC been a scurrilous, dangerous race baiter whose views on immigration were an outrage to a civilised nation…his warning that mass immigration could result in a rise in race attacks and xenophobia and conflict between communities were evidence of almost criminally racist tendencies. How different the world is today when the BBC sees its European empire dreams go up in smoke and any radical expression of distress and dismay are acceptable in its defence and its frontpage headline is…….

Clegg warns of Europe ‘extremism’
A collapse in the eurozone would create the “ideal recipe for an increase in extremism and xenophobia”, the UK deputy PM says.

And Here’s a glimpse of the BBC mindset concerning the European Project as set out by Will Self…’enthusiastic pro-European’…….

‘I viewed an increasingly united Europe as a necessary counterweight to US world hegemony and Russian idiocy, while also being a handy cosmopolitan stick with which to beat the backs of uptight Little Englanders.’

Isn’t that interesting?  The BBC are enthusiastically anti-nation and embrace the no-borders internationalism of a European identity but  Self’s statement shows that the European Project  wasn’t about getting rid of nations to stop war, it was a plan to make an even bigger nation, an Empire, to compete with the US and the USSR, and now China.

Far from a peaceful project it was all about power and  sabre rattling in one form or another….having ‘peacefully’ subjugated its own new ‘Euro’ citizen first of course.

And how neat that Self also propounds the ideas that such internationalism, cosmopolitanism, is a useful device to ‘rub the Right’s nose in diversity’……wasn’t that exactly Labour’s policy when they opened the floodgates?

Who can doubt that this is the authentic, approved voice of the BBC metropolitian ‘elite’ as well?

THERE MAY BE TROUBLE AHEAD…

Slovakia’s parliament has voted against measures to bolster the powers of the eurozone bailout fund, seen as vital in combating the bloc’s debt crisis. The governing coalition had linked the vote to a confidence motion and as a result has effectively been toppled. Slovakia is the last of the eurozone’s 17 member states to vote on expanding the European Financial Stability Fund.

Then the bad..

“However, the BBC’s Rob Cameron says a second vote could be held soon and is likely to succeed.”

Good old Rob – getting in that by-line within seconds of the news breaking. Keep on repeating, the Eurozone will succeed, the Eurozone will succeed.

MORE EUROPE, PLEASE

Was interested to listen to Mark Mardell’s latest love letter to Obama on BBC Today this morning. This time the issue is Europe and Mark’s on the case. The situation is clear, he advises, Obama is very worried about what is happening in Europe and the looming prospect of another banking crisis has made him spell it out – go ahead and have a federalised Europe. The answer to Europe is more Europe. Time to fast-track the process. As further evidence of the urgent need for Europe to dismantle any residual of the Nation State and “sort out” the economic woes that so afflict, I also see that Tim Geithner is trotting along to the EU Financial Minister’s informal meeting tomorow. Maybe he’ll be offering some tax advice? It’s remarkable watching the BBC do everything possible to turn the meltdown on the Eurozone into an argument for more centralised planning. I mean, what could go wrong with that idea?
