We have, in this once-Great Britain, a State within a State. Opinionated in the extreme, uncomprehending and disbelieving of anything outwith its own narrow ideals; the BBC stands, it believes, above the ‘plebs’ whom it is supposed to serve, because the employees, journalists and executives of that organisation ‘know’ that they, and they alone, are right in their beliefs that anything ‘liberal’ or ‘left-wing’ is good, and to be applauded; whilst anything, an opinion, a voice, a movement which argues for the opposing school of thought is to be denigrated, scorned and, naturally, denied either a voice or a chance to respond.
We see this BBC ‘ideal’ at work today whenever the slightest query is raised about the governance or indeed operational activities of that same BBC; and the slightly-incredulous replies come spilling out of the mouths of the time-servers, the so-called ‘great and good’; in other, slightly more realistic terms, those who have ‘sucked off the hind teat’ for far too long.
A typical example was heard this morning with David Dimbleby being ‘questioned’ by a BBC Today presenter regarding the unfortunate and ill-prepared ex-Director General’s replies to questions regarding the ill-starred Newsnight investigation which of course featured the finger being pointed at a Tory politician without that same finger’s evidence being investigated at all. Dimbleby stated ‘Well, of course the D-G needs to be a man who has built a support network which can ask, ‘have you read the Guardian, and have you seen what is being said on Twitter about subject A, or B?’ The question which should be asked of Dimbleby, as well as all the other time-servers and lick-spittles, is ‘which universe do you inhabit, and why aren’t you in ours; instead of inhabiting cloud-cuckoo land?’
Ask yourself one question, and one only. ‘Do you instinctively hold anything you hear about any subject which is being discussed on the BBC as being the unvarnished truth; or do you instinctively attempt to unravel the words in your mind, whilst clearing the built-in bias which is present in everything the BBC produces?’
When Britons heard the tones of Lord Haw-Haw, otherwise known as the American-born traitor William Joyce, they knew who was speaking, and from whence came his words. They were the words of an enemy, of a system which was to be revealed as treacherous and evil almost beyond belief, and as such they were easily identified and dismissed. But Great Britain has, for far too long, harboured its own brand of treasonous and vicious bile, smoothly delivered and expertly polished, but just as deadly to the old-fashioned ideals of honesty and justice which Great Britain once harboured so transparently.
