Good on the BBC

The BBC seems to have upset most people but for different reasons. Murdoch and Sky because their iPlayer is such a success and the BBC’s success is one less place News Corp can milk the population of out money. Just look at how they are managing this year to extract another £39 per subscriber during an economic down turn. Still back to the BBC.

The Labour Government isn’t happy promising a series of actions, but I suspect they will start with reviews (on which their cronies can sit and get paid taxpayers money for pontificating) on the future of the BBC.

The Conservative party is promising to equally curb the excesses of the BBC. And now the BNP are threatening to sue them too (not likely to get into power I suppose). But if everyone hates then, they must be being even-handed, doling out praise and criticism in to all. Probably a little too much criticism for many. But if BBC is not to stand up against these organisation then who?

Apparently I’m competent to vote, but may be corrupted by the wicked BNP. For my own protection I must not listen to them, in case… Now the BNP in their innocence or their ignorance have policies on things like immigration. That the other parties in their knowledge or secrecy chose not to discus. Someone comes on the telly and says “immigration is not a problem” “immigration is good for the country”. Yet any working class person (not many of them left as the immigrants have taken over) and even second generation immigrants will tell you that isn’t what it feels like on the front line. Just like the Tommy in the first word war just because the idiots in charge think they are winning doesn’t make the cost easier to bear.

As it turns out the BNP look in decidedly unfit to govern the country. However, I suspect that the fastest runner will look out of shape if he has to outrun a pack or rapid dogs.

I would really like to see a well mannered and civilised debate with the BNP and more importantly for the main political parties to take the overcrowding, lack of housing and lack of jobs seriously.
