Typical example of BBC bias, this is the headline: "Black women most likely to die in medieval London plague" The headline is an exaggeration something the Mail / Guardian / Mirror and The Sun do all the time, however I am told the BBC doesn't do that. The study is based on 145 corpse, it is not clear if all of these 145 were black women or just a percentage but as the BBC uses the word individuals I suspect the later. Eventually the BBC does mention that more than 50% of Londoners died an horrific death toll (35k). So how many of those 35k were black? Given that more than 50% of all people died is it really that significant if the mortality rate for black women was higher? How many black women were there in London? No they don't tell us that. The BBC doesn't lie (very often) but they do skew the facts. Sorry, didn't see this Badger. I've posted it on another topic.
Living down here does have some advantages. At least you can see them cry. |

The BBC is biased. It’s just left wing and so all you left whingers see it as a prop to your left wing beliefs and way of 'thinking', like you do most things in this world. You all won’t be happy until you tear this country to the ground and make everyone who lives in it as miserable as you all are. Very selfish and very sad. I see what you did there. But the truth is, they’re not unhappy on the left. Far from it in fact. They’re just unhappy with the right keep attacking them for being chilled out about things that the right don’t like.

Jeremy Hunt did at least give us something back yesterday as far as I can see unless you read the BBC website of course. It’s far from the BBC who are doing the deeper analysis and identifying the whole picture of where people’s finances are. The FT is the place to look. Only the cheer leaders for the Tories are joining in the electioneering. The BBC doesn’t do electioneering.

The 'right wing' want to rescue this country from the total disaster that liberal left morons have made of it.
