A few days after a fawning home page story on Michelle Obama, the BBC has produced another puff piece on a Democrat. Is it even a story relevant to a UK audience? 'Former US vice-president Joe Biden has adopted a dog from a shelter in the state of Delaware' [Link] Why not a positive article on the current VP? Because he's a Republican, that's why.

Yep.....but let's remember the BBC is an unbiased institution that's objective and doesn't take sides. It just happens to employ a workforce....that just happens to consist of 90 percent lefty neo liberals who look at the Guardian and think it's the shining city on the hill. Let's remember that this has nothing to do with any bias in employment and it's all totally fair. Because these are fair and upstanding people who have no agendas to push their own views forward at all......they don't shape the narrative and fairly represent other viewpoints. And pigs might fly.

some brilliant comedy on the BBC these days. University Challenge seems to be delving deep into the archives of 'Black History Month' for quiz questions. And the funny part is the blank faces of the contestants. Is it your fault you do not know the names of the last 5 ministers for Health of Trinidad & Tobago ? Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

[Link] No mention of the huge downside to our own economy. I would in an office building that was mainly native British building but is now “diverse” (lots of Indian software developers) and almost none of them spend money locally at lunch time. That one building must have taken hundreds/thousands of pounds per week out of the local economy in food sales only.

"She defends her religion's reputation for strict laws by arguing that it is capable of fairness. But critics and rights groups argue Sharia is often misused. "We have no objection to Sharia law that doesn't discriminate against women, gay people or social and religious minorities," Asia deputy director of Human Rights Watch Phil Robertson told BBC 100 Women. "But the problem with Sharia law in Malaysia is that too often it does precisely that. "Religion is never an acceptable reason to violate international human rights standards of equality and non-discrimination." For example rights activists were outraged by the recent caning of two Malaysian women convicted of attempting to have lesbian sex, and say Sharia law was misused in this case. Judge Shushaidah would not address the case, but said: "Caning under Sharia law serves to educate offenders so as not to repeat the act again." What planet are we living on?

Also part of this year's 'BBC 100 Women' series is Chelsea Clinton – who is only famous because of her dad. 'Chelsea Clinton: No-one asked dad to change his name' [Link] So the BBC story is, mum (Hillary) used her married name (Clinton) and not her maiden name (Rodham). Isn't that what usually happens? We find out that Chelsea has writen a kids' book, OK... She is is also vice-chair of the non-profit organisation the Clinton Foundation, set up by her dad. The same organisation that is under FBI investigation for allegedly accepting donations in exchange for political favours while Hillary was secretary of state. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia contributed at least 10 million dollars to it... The same foundation that took in millions of dollars for a hospital and other rebuilding works to help the Haiti recovery that never got built. Incredible. After Michelle Obama, I'm looking forward to a Republican woman from the Trump or Bush family featured by the BBC. Edited by Penge Eagle (23 Nov 2018 5.26pm)
