The BBC is shedding thousands of jobs to cut costs. People like Jonafan Woss and Jeremy Clarkson are looking like losing their jobs for being too expensive.
However, the mini-budget the other week announced new farsi and arabic channels from the BBC but there’s no mention of cutbacks on that front. Nor is there any indication […]

Despite the metrication project instigated by our masters in the European Federation, we are still predominantly an imperial country but despite the European Federation graciously allowing us to use imperial measurements beyond their forced-metrication deadline, efforts to wipe out imperial measurements are being stepped up.
When I went to primary school 20-odd years ago we had […]

The SNP have ruled out flying the British flag over Scottish Executive buildings and are planning to force public buildings in Scotland to fly the Scottish flag instead. They are also planning to change the rules north of the border to allow the Scottish flag to be flown with precedence to the British flag.

I read the other day that the Scottish Executive now wants to be called “the government”.
What a surprise to see the BBC sucking up to their future Scottish masters:
Government to scrap council tax
Yep, that’s the Scottish government, not the British government. Less than a fortnight ago Newsnight asked for nominations for an award - The Order of the Brown […]

The BBC have been uncharacteristically keen on discussing the break-up of the union, nationalism and they even seem to have rediscovered the “E” word (England).
A BBC-commissioned poll showed that 61% of people were in favour of the establishment of an English Parliament. This is despite the BBC weighting the Scottish and Welsh contribution to the […]

Mrs Sane tells me that from 11am today, BBC1 was bedecked with BBC Scotland logo’s.
It could just be Telewest getting things arse about face (it wouldn’t be the first time - Adventure 1 on Telewest has Dutch Teletext subtitles) or it could be that the Raj have finally taken over the BBC and Braveheart will […]

This morning I spotted the BBC mixing up England and Britain again on their website.
Following on from complaints made by several members of the CEP, the BBC have corrected the misleading article.

The BBC is at it again, confusing England with Britain.
Apparently, the North British Conservative logo is bigger and leans less to the right than the English Conservative logo. Amazing really considering there is no English Conservative Party and no English logo. The Conservative Party that operates in England is the British Conservative Party and the […]
