why the bbc is going down the pan

Edmonds track record made it hard for me to even raise an eyebrow on this one. Entirely on form.

Like much else he comes out with I suspect such versions of reality will never become part of this dimension, thankfully. After all the fact that Mr Blobby theme parks actually came and went (& cost councils money when they failed) is quite enough reality-busting for one gits lifetime.

Sloppy, sloppy editing. This story is about a poor wee lad who lost a few fingertips due to a dodgy school gate, for which the local council has been fined in court. Yet the headline says:

"Salford Council fined for 'guillotine' gate that severed boy's hand"

There's a huge difference between losing fingers and losing a hand, ffs. :facepalm:

A complaint duly sent to the Beeb.

ETA - it has now been amended so the headline now uses the word 'injured' rather than severed.

BBC East Midlands yesterday did a feature on local employers not being able to find enough qualified people in the Labour Market.

They went to an engineering firm in Nottingham who complained that they can't find enough skilled engineers or even sales people to meet their business needs.

I thought great I'll look their website up and see if they have anything matches my skill set. What jobs did I find on their website? You got it, fuck all. As in zero jobs whatsoever, not even a careers section.

What a bunch of jokers. Media lying whores.

:rolleyes:
 
Someone put this brill post on Facebook:

Andrew Marr-what is the point?

Really,is this the best the BBC can do - or is this the quality of interviewer it must field, for Ian Duncan Smith to make an appearance?

Duncan Smith - "Black is white".

Marr - "And by inference, white is black?"

Duncan Smith - "It's complex though very straightforward and I have evidence that proves this case. Those who dispute this position are wrong. People don't react well to inconvenient truths. And millions are befitting from black being white".

Polly Toynbee: "Black is black and white is white. Grey are the shades in between".

Duncan Smith - "No black is white. To say otherwise is a lie"

Marr - "It would be useful to debate this further, but we should leave it there.
FFS!

You should complain to the BBC trust if that's correct
 
Bbc respin the findings that 3/4 of graduates will spend their entire lives in debt by claiming lowest paid graduates will "gain most" ie will die in debt.
 
Songs of praise this evening simply mad. The events of Holy Week as interpreted through the medium of interpretive circus skills.
Christ entering the city of Jerusalem on a unicycle. The garden of gethsemane is a juggling act with knives, and the crucifixion a hi wire act.

I voted in the local elections this morning.

The solitary NPD boy on the ballot was tucked away in the bottom left corner of the paper, away from everybody else.
 
Kelvinm Mackenzie on Any Questions nearlty had me throw my tablet out the window. If i was Jack Monroe I'd have got up and bottle the cunt.

Actually the system is designed in a way that makes lower earners pay more in the long run, as those who pay their loans back more slowly will accrue more interest on them. Someone who retires without paying back their whole student loan may still have paid considerably more in total than someone who took out the same loan at the same time but who earned enough to pay it all back inside ten years.
