Lefties at the BBC.
The BBC has immense power, probably more than the government. It has
about half of the total UK news reach across all media and it continues this
huge reach across documentary and light entertainment (any private company would
not be allowed such control over an industry). The philosophical roots of the
BBC are grounded in being the social conditioning arm of the post war consensus.
So their job is left wing propaganda. Shaping national attitudes to a whole
myriad of issues. They can do this using Panorama, using Eastenders, and
everything in between. They ran J.K. Rowlings socialist propaganda fiction The
Casual Vacancy in the run up to the recent General Election. They really are the
enemy of the people of Britain as they prevent the amazing power of capitalism
from delivering its bountiful harvest for all.
Here are some of the more prominent lefties at the BBC:
James Mark Dakin Purnell is the Director
of Strategy and Digital at the BBC being appointed to the post in February
2013. He was a British Labour Party politician, as the Member of Parliament
for Stalybridge and Hyde (MP) from 2001 to 2010 general elections and served as
Secretary of State for Work and Pensions and Secretary of State for Culture,
Media and Sport from 2007 to 2009.
Danny Cohen is the Director of BBC Television. One of
the first things he said when he took charge of BBC1 was that its comedy was too
middle class. Recently he banned all-male panels on comedy panel shows.
He agrees with “comedian” Lenny Henry that there should be more “diversity” on
television. In February 2014 he claimed there were too many white people in the
content and its shows would include more blacks and homosexuals “to reflect
modern Britain”.
Ian Katz is the editor of the Newsnight current
affairs programme on BBC Two. Earlier Katz followed a career in print
journalism, and was deputy editor of The Guardian until 2013.
Allegra Stratton is political editor of BBC Two’s Newsnight
programme. Previously she was political correspondent at The Guardian,
presenting the newspaper’s “Politics Weekly” podcast with Tom Clark.
Kirsty
Wark the Newsnight journalist is very close to Labour. Donald Dewar,
Scottish Labour politician and former First Minister of Scotland, a personal
friend. In January 2005, she invited Labour MSP Jack McConnell, then Scotland’s
First Minister, and his family to stay at her Majorcan holiday home over the New
Year period.
Sandra Birgitte “Sandi” Toksvig is a Danish-British writer, presenter and
“comedian”. She said on BBC Radio 4’s The News
Quiz that the Conservative Party
had “put the ‘N’ into cuts” to child benefit. In April 2015, Toksvig chaired
the first, informal, conference of the new Women’s Equality Party.
Jeremy James Hardy is a “comedian” who
the BBC use a lot. Well known left winger who wrote a regular column for The
Guardian until 2001. Bashes the bankers (falsely) at every
opportunity.
Susan Grace Calman is a Scottish
“comedian” and panellist on BBC Radio 4 topical shows including The News Quiz
and I Guess That’s Why They Call It The News. One she tweeted: “Premier travel
inn in Birmingham is full of tories. I’m hiding in my room. Feel like Anne
Frank.”
Owain Elis James is a Welsh “comedian”
who appears in a whole range of BBC output. Tweeted: “We have given that cunt
Cameron a mandate to be even more of a psycho , for the next five years. Oh
Christ.”
Norman Smith became the Chief Political Correspondent of
BBC News in 2011, and its Assistant Political Editor in 2014. Said on air in
December: “When you sit down and read the OBR report it reads like a book of
doom. It is utterly terrifying.” public spending would “have to be hacked back
to the levels of the 1930s in terms of as a proportion of GDP and that is an
extraordinary concept” and “You’re back to the land of The Road to Wigan
Pier”.
Andrew William Stevenson Marr Host
of The Andrew Marr Show. Was a member of the Socialist Campaign for a Labour
Victory (an off-shoot of the International-Communist League, now known as the
Alliance for Workers’ Liberty). At Cambridge he acquired the nickname ‘Red
Andy’. Writing in The Guardian, he said “It may be my Presbyterian background,
but I firmly believe that repression can be a great, civilising instrument for
good”.
Mark Steel, socialist columnist, author
and “comedian”. Was
a long-standing member of the Socialist Workers Party before he resigned in
2007, he
has made many appearances on BBC radio and television shows . He is perhaps best
known for presenting The Mark Steel Lectures, The Mark Steel Revolution, The
Mark Steel Solution, and Mark Steel’s in Town. In February 2013, Steel was among
those who gave their support to the People’s Assembly in a letter published by
The Guardian newspaper.
Russell
Brand. Resigned from the BBC in 2008 following prank calls he made to
actor Andrew Sachs on The Russell Brand Show. But still appears on the BBC a lot
where he is given free reign to voice his extreme left wing views. In the run up
to the election he dropped his anti-voting position and “declared the importance
of voting”, backing Labour and telling his fans that “You gotta vote
Labour”.
Stephen John “Steve” Coogan. “Comedian” who appears on many BBC
programmes. Supports the Labour Party and believes that Conservatives think
“people are plebs” and that “they like to pat people on the head”. A noted car
enthusiast, he has had a succession of Ferraris. Gave evidence to the Leveson
Inquiry on phone hacking, favouring regulation of the press.
Robert
Webb. “Comedian” of Mitchell and Webb fame. Webb has stated that he is
a supporter of the Labour Party, and rejoined it in 2013.
Josephine Grace “Jo” Brand. BBC stalwart; “comedian”, writer and
actress. Appeared on The Brain Drain, Getting On and various BBC appearances
including as a regular guest on QI and Have I Got News for You. Backed Labour in
a party election broadcast.
Obviously this is just a partial list and doesn’t include the thousands
of producers, directors, editors and writers who make the BBC a hive of
socialism. You don’t have to take my word for this, look at these
quotes:
Peter
Sissons, former BBC News and Current Affairs presenter: “By far the
most popular and widely read newspapers at the BBC are The Guardian and The
Independent. Producers refer to them routinely for the line to take on running
stories, and for inspiration on which items to cover. In the later stages of my
career, I lost count of the number of times I asked a producer for a brief on a
story, only to be handed a copy of The Guardian and told ‘it’s all in
there’.”
Mark
Thomspon, former BBC Director General: “In the BBC I joined 30 years
ago [as a production trainee, in 1979], there was, in much of current affairs,
in terms of people’s personal politics, which were quite vocal, a massive bias
to the left. The organisation did struggle then with impartiality. And
journalistically, staff were quite mystified by the early years of Thatcher. Now
it is a completely different generation. There is much less overt tribalism
among the young journalists who work for the BBC. It is like the New Statesman,
which used to be various shades of soft and hard left and is now more
technocratic. We’re like that, too.”
Sir
Antony Jay, former BBC producer and creator of Yes, (Prime) Minister:
“I absorbed and expressed all the accepted BBC attitudes: hostility to, or at
least suspicion of, America, monarchy, government, capitalism, empire, banking
and the defence establishment, and in favour of the Health Service, state
welfare, the social sciences, the environment and state education. But perhaps
our most powerful antagonism was directed at advertising. This is not
surprising; commercial television was the biggest threat the BBC had ever had to
face.”
So there you have it. The BBC is a huge socialist propaganda outfit that
harms Great Britain. It needs breaking up and selling
off. And the new Conservative government, at the beginning of a 5 year term and
with the BBC Charter up for renewal, would be fools not to.
Finally leftism isn’t the only BBC bias. They are pro Israel and anti
Palestine. They are pro MMGW warmists and stifle critical climate debate. They
are very pro EU and vehemently against Brexit. They are greatly in favour of
Scotland remaining in the Union. All this is wrong. The BBC are not a political
party and should not behave like one.
Update 23/6/2015
Roger Mosey, former head of BBC TV news, has written a book giving
chapter and verse on the Corporation’s bias.Here it is reported by The Daily
Mail.
