And, of course, the BBC is the mouthpiece of the government, and will tell us whatever the government want us to believe.

Strange that, all political parties accuse the BBC of bias toward the other parties. That is not to say it automatically follows, that it will be unbiased - but it is a good place to start looking for any biases. And overall they claim to be even-handed, but refuse to trip over themselves to be so PC as to balance every bit of broadcasting and end up saying nothing.

IME the BBC get it about right, I shout at the TV/Radio at times but not all the time.

FWIW Borish is micro-managing his government, at least he can't re-shuffle while in China. Now why did the image Bull in a China shop........ pop in to my head?

Colours expressed/present/apparent in M. Rouge's posts do not overtly represent a political bias, excepting the colour of pure unadulterated water (where found)
