Step forward the BBC and the Guardian. Yes! You! Pat Condell, no wallflower he, is really on form here (and a new word too). I challenge a Guardian-reader to listen all the way through and accept that he has some valid points… How apposite is that: “Prickocracy! Love it. Wikio Wikio

BBC’s biased reporting of Global Warming

Hannan vs Farage in the European Parliament

By scrubber | Published: December 15, 2010
There are many out there who criticise Nigel Farage for his speeches in the European Parliament just as there are many out there who, like me, admire him for them. As we all know, he’s been hauled over the coals in the past by the Powers-That-Be, and taken a great deal of stick in the [...]

The BBC interviews David Campbell-Bannerman, Winston McKenzie, Tim Congdon and Nigel Farage here. It’s a real shame the presenter had to be so sneeringly patronising about it all… Wikio Wikio

I am an Englishman.

By scrubber | Published: April 2, 2010

The Prime Mentalist started it last week with another U-turn.
