Wondered if anyone else has been reading Justin Webb's blog today? Even by his twisted and prejudiced standards, it is dripping with anti-Palin toxicity! Justin is plainly disturbed to witness just how popular Sarah Palin is with Main Street but he admonishes "And yet the Palin world-view -essentially ignorant, unable to name a single paper read - is not the view that a nation facing an economic catastrophe, complex and international and baffling to most minds, is likely to choose." He goes further saying that "to hear Palin screeching on about Reagan must be painful to many Republicans who knew him. Reagan knew what papers he read. " Got that - screeching and ignorant. For years the lousy BBC ridiculed Ronald Reagan, now they ridicule Sarah Pale and Justin Webb is to the fore in the character assassination. Any pretence of objective reporting has been jettisoned and we now see the full-on pro-Dem bias that the BBC exudes. I hope the McCain-Palin camp are observing this.

"The corporation lavished £81,000 on a three-day hospitality event at this year's championships, equal to almost £500 a head. The gathering was hosted by Trust chairman Sir Michael Lyons and trustee Diane Coyle, the wife of BBC reporter Rory Cellan-Jones. They were treated to what was acclaimed as the 'best-ever Wimbledon final'.The broadcaster's Wimbledon entertaining budget included a £53,528 bill for 'marquee and associated costs' and another £18,281 for hospitality. So now you know how your money is being spent." Still, I bet the champagne and strawberries were most enjoyable....

So you can see the appeal to the BBC which has provided a ringing defence of the financial mess in which many of these Councils now find themselves care of ill-judged financial investment in Icelandic banks! On "Today" this morning, the line being retailed was that the Councils appeal to Chancellor Darling to be treated just as ordinary investors was pretty fair given that central government has encouraged local councils to generate as much financial return as possible. No mention of the fact that investment carries risk and therefore local councils must be conservative in their investment strategies since they are investing our money. Rarely have I heard local councils being given such a doe-eyed PR makeover - even as they lose millions of rate-payers cash. You can always rely on the BBC to support incompetent Statism at every level. And while we are at it, have you notice the way in which the BBC refers to the US financial package as a "bail-out" whilst the Brown/Darling plan is a "rescue plan"?How nice. The rehabilitation of the Great Leader is now complete as the BBC demonstrated earlier today with the news in "Today in Parliament" that even his critics were now behind him and his innate caution is now being trumpeted as his greatest strength. Wonder if that was the same caution that led the Great Leader to sell off UK gold reserves at virtually an all-time low price, for example? Guess we'll never know because the BBC sure as hell will not brook any criticism of Prudence in these changed times. What joy it is to have a multi-channel Pravda that we must fund.
