NotThePars Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 News filtering in that Kuennsberg will be hung, drawn and quartered in the Tower of London. I am pro-life and take no pleasure in reporting this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fullerene Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Apparently this is not about being pro-Tory. More about being pro whoever is in power. For that reason I would love Corbyn to win a majority (even if it was unlikely). I would love to see these phoneys pledging their loyalty to Prime Minister Corbyn. Unlikely but so what. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Actually breaking electoral law is an unexpected new direction. You have to credit Kuennsberg’s ability to continue to surprise after all the mad shit that’s happened in this election. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike this No-one appears to have picked up on Laura's definition of "a generation" David Cameron had an effective majority of 15 at the general election in May 2015. I would say that 15 is a pretty decent majority. According to Kuenssberg, therefore, a political generation is 4 years and 7 months. I assume she'll be calling for Indyref2 any day now... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotThePars Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Today's episode of Politics Live isn't available on the iPlayer. The BBC have claimed that they, or their political editor, have not breached electoral law and a BBC reporter reporting from South Wales has said "if Boris Johnson gets the victory he so deserves." Just an absolute normal one all round. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kezia Dugdale talked about how she is of a different generation to Nicola Sturgeon so it's definitely somewhere between four years & seven months and eleven years. Not long to wait now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Repair Shop is quality tv, first daytime show I've watched since Lovejoy and Jerry Springer. Run out of episodes to watch on catch up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tirso Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 I liked that they had columnists from different persuasions including those below. It's their editorial output that's gone wrong. Increasingly like the Scotsman. Almost like they felt they needed to be the unionist to the National.Sad as the Herald, even as unionist, is a fine newspaper in comparison to that comic. It comes as absolutely no surprise. As a lifelong Herald reader I've literally watched it's decline into a poor excuse for a newspaper right across all facets. I've also recently become very alarmed at the increasing right-wing tone it has adopted, evidenced by writers such as Andy McIver (former Scottish Tory spin-doctor), Mark Smith, Andrew McKie and the contemptible Guy Stenhouse, a financial services dogmatist who formerly hid under the 'Pinstripe' pseudonym. Not to mention the libertarian Staurt Waiton who is standing tomorrow for the Brexit Party. There are still some decent journos there like David Pratt, Kevin McKenna and Iain McWhirter but for how much longer who knows ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunfermline Don Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 The BBC may very well have mortally wounded themselves this last month. Who is going to fight for them when the Tories eventually come for them ?If you had asked me that 5 years ago I would have defended the BBC to the hilt. Now they deserve what they have coming.It would be interesting to see how many people have cancelled their TV licenses recently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty dingus Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 It's amazing that those who were willing to accept the BBC lies in 2014 and classed everyone who highlighted it as crazy Nat paranoia peddlers are now seeing the state broadcaster for what it is, an extension of the establishment. The left wing Yoons lapped it up...f**k you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottsdad Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 This election has been the worst case of BBC bias yet. They are acting like a right-wing paper now. Take the "punch" incident. For about 4 hours it was reported widely across the BBC (website, radio, TV and, of course, social media). The story of the kid on the floor was forgotten for this. Then when it emerged it was another Tory lie, they just quietly dropped it. No apology, no coverage of the fact it was a *lie* to the same extent as the lie was originally presented. Just a shrug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comes over very badly but she was talking about how the Tories see it going, and miss-phrased it imo. Likely a Freudian slip though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
