Political bias at BBC - something has to be done surely
Discussion
Can I feel my boots!
I don't watch BBC news programmes anymore (although of course still pay for them) but I do watch the clips in places like here just to laugh at what I'm missing.
Great stuff from the Ginetta bloke, love it and my sentiments exactly. JFDI, what are we waiting for! Was that clip actually shown on the Beeb?
How long is it since we voted on this with little movement since (Laura should be asking that question)? May needs to take a leaf out of the Trumpster's book and sign some Executive Orders and get the ball rolling sharpish.

It's always entertaining to see people watching that same BBC that they see as biased.
I'd never spend time watching Alex Jones. But hey, if it makes you happy to watch something just to whine on a random forum about it; feel your boots.
You only need a few seconds while channel hopping to be fair I'd never spend time watching Alex Jones. But hey, if it makes you happy to watch something just to whine on a random forum about it; feel your boots.

All media is biased. The only way to even attempt to fully understand an issue is to use a variety of sources and weight them according to their biases. It's therefore fine to use the BBC as a biased news source alongside the biased Guardian, the biased Mail, biased Sky etc...This point however is separate from the point that the BBC bias is in contravention of their charter.

Did they include the interview with Lawrence Tomlinson of Ginetta Cars?
His response to her was priceless.

Ha ha ha. As a Ginetta fan, I missed that. Tomlinson is always straight to the point.k of a woman. Did they include the interview with Lawrence Tomlinson of Ginetta Cars?

Ok, slacker. Pictures (of the barn).
Not 'a' picture but a thread ....http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...
right wing pistonheads thinks BBC in reds under the beds shocker 
They're only "lefties" because you are "righties". Surprised you have not cottoned to this simple fact yet. Maybe you just like complaining though
If you want to read news that conforms to your world view then Breibart news is the one for you, they have a UK edition
http://www.breitbart.com/london/
Then you will be as happy as larry.
WITH 3 MILLION CHANNELS YOU DO NOT HAVE TO WATCH THE BBC.
Feck that, I just like a good old moan about the BBC. Because I have nothing better to do and cannot use the remote control as my fingers have spasmed in a frenzy or somethink...

PS After all these aimless posts on the BBC after all this time it has reduced down to completely useless topic that has no purpose. Have you thought about a self help group where you can meet on a Thursday evening and learn how to wean yourself off it?

As said, unless you can prove otherwise, in order to watch scheduled TV from other providers I have to pay the licence fee.
Why does the value matter? Either I have to pay or or I don't. Your second sentence seems to contradict the first.
It doesn't. TV Licensing makes you pay for license, not bbc. Would you whine if it was 1p? Why does the value matter? Either I have to pay or or I don't. Your second sentence seems to contradict the first.

Really? So I can watch the other channels without a licence?
So your argument is not about bias but funding?
can i get a refund of my taxes that went towards the 'war' in Afghanistan? I didn't like it or agree with it so I shouldn't be made to pay for a it.Gassing Station | News, Politics & Economics | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
