Hijacking the headlines again?
She's had a good week..

always appears that the bbc are pro labour, so if both sides think they are biased they are probably fairly neutral :hehe:
I just cannot bear the woman. The thing I really can't stand about her is the way she raises her eyebrows and shakes her head in that exaggerated way she always does when talking about Labour.
The BBC and the media in general really should be holding the government to account, but they and Theresa May have been getting an unbelievably easy ride.
I stopped listening after just 34 seconds when she claimed: "the fundamentals of the UK economy are strong." Worra load of bollocks!
The fact is the UK economy is based on consumerism and credit. This country, like most others, has had a debt party for years on end by stealing from the future to remain fat today.
The day of reckoning nears. :old:
The Canary are pretty bias I agree, that's why I went to their page to get that link as I knew there would be one on there. :hehe: (I don't like to miss a chance to slag the beeb off)
If I'm honest it's not the bbc bias that bothers me, it's their warmongering lies I have a problem with.
The differences between the main parties are barely skin-deep. What should be front and centre of all the campaigns is the creation of money. But it won't be and never has been an issue because the vast majority of people are so clueless that they have no idea where virtually all money comes from. That's the way the bankers and their partners in crime, the Political Class, like it.
She does come across as though she thinks she's as important as the people she's talking about.
Ultimately she's just some bird off the news - her opinion doesn't count for jack shit.
look its fallen significantly since the came into power. Would always take a while to undo the damage of the recession. You cant simply wipe out all the borrowing that was already in place.

It might have something to do with the fact that in the 2015 general election UKIP had a lot more votes than the Liberal Democrats & The Green Party combined. I don't particularly like UKIP but I must admit that their number of MPs is seriously out of kilter with the votes won when you compare them to other parties, particularly the SNP & to a lesser extent the Lib Dems.
As for the argument about BBC bias I find them to be pretty neutral towards all parties & i say that as someone who does not have a particular bias towards any political party.
I've always thought that the BBC has been, broadly speaking, pretty neutral. Currently, it seems as if the criticism lately has been of a perceived right wing bias after years when claims of left wing favouritism seemed more prevalent. Does this mean that the BBC has shifted to the right as a result of pressure being put on it by the Government? Maybe it has, but I still watch and listen to it and think it's broadly neutral and there would be millions throughout the world who would compare it to what happens with their countries media and wonder what we were moaning about. That said, I did notice this morning on Radio 5's 9 o clock news bulletin that the section on Labour's plans for the English NHS ended with a mention of the Government dismissing them as a shambles, whereas the mention which followed about the Conservative proposals regarding worker's right did not have a response from another party - that can't be right can it?
I'm all for PR over FPTP, however counting votes when someone comes in second place, which can be used as a protest vote in a FPTP system rather than a direct vote in a PR system, does lead to claims by UKIP (and formerly LibDems) that they are under-represented. no doubt they are, but not to the extent that they claim
