I think she presents her opinion fairly. Labour are lacking leadership here. They should be counter-attacking the Tories here.

Have I got that right?

:hehe: Make of it what you want, I was just pointing out exactly what you and TruBlue are saying.

I will give you Benn but certainly not the others. I am hardly in favour of mass murderers like Josef. Perhaps you find it difficult to think of three names.

I do.

Every organisation and individual has a bias - why do you expect the BBC to be any different?

Just been and voted for Khan

I don't expect them to be any different, Christ, I'm agreeing with you and you're still arguing with me. :hehe:

They are supposed to be impartial. It's in their remit. Perhaps if they stopped fawning over the Queen and Churchill they could be taken seriously. They are very much part of the establishment so can never be even handed.

Their bias is exactly that they're part of the establishment and will always be generally "softer" towards the incumbent government.

Can't say I blame them as it's the government who decides their charter and ultimately controls their funding.

"We" got where?

Here's someone else for John Mann (and his cheerleaders on this Board) to scream at and denounce as a Nazi apologist: Major General Yair Golan, deputy chief of staff of the Israeli military:

"If there's something that frightens me about Holocaust remembrance it's the recognition of the nauseating processes that occurred in Europe in general, and particularly in Germany, back then - 70, 80 and 90 years ago - and finding signs of them here among us today in 2016," the deputy chief of staff said on Wednesday.

If Ken Livingstone had said anything like that imagine the reaction of the British press, Blairite Labour MPs, and the rest of the circus.

I've read it twice but can't see the bit claiming hitler was a zionist?
