BBC bias again?

[Berwickhibby]

In my honest opinion we, the electorate, are being lied to, deceived and allowing politicians of every persuasion to fill their own pockets with expenses and gold plated pensions. The working people are getting less services from Government however there appears to be a rise in high paying management jobs for their pals. Added to the poor reporting and representation by the media ....they can all GTF

That's what to expect after 12 years of Tories

I see the BBC used footage from two years ago of Johnson laying a wreath rather than yesterday’s when he looked like he’d been on a week long bender. Must be nice to know they have his back.

I'm surprised they didn't use the 2019 clip with Corbyn's face cut and pasted over it tbh.

That can only be intentional, you can't just accidentally slip in a piece of archive footage.

Apparently it was because he stepped out of the line of dignitaries
Too soon and believe it or not..... he laid the wreath upside down!
The man is a clown.

Yep, did both.

You can bet your life that the BBC wouldn't have made the same "mistake", had it been Corbyn instead. They'd be showing it over and over again (they haven't shown a repeat of the Boris gaff once) with the narrative that Corbyn is some sort of terrorist sympathizer.

Yet the big talk is Corbyn didn’t “bow” properly.

Yeah I was reading on Twitter that the archives are under lock and key, no one can just rock up and take some footage for a clip.

Had to have been coordinated.

I wasn’t sure myself but now I know it’s been on Twitter, well then it must be fact

It seems like a very strange mistake to make. It would be like News at Ten bringing you the goals from yesterday’s Liverpool win over Man City and accidentally playing a clip from a game two years ago. I just can’t see how that happens?
The BBC do appear to be making a lot of mistakes that always seem to favour one side.

Just for perspective, Sportscene showed footage of Easter Road before the game against Livi (or maybe Ross County) in their highlights package that was actually archived footage from the last derby, so it's not beyond the realms of possibility that it was accidental.

These things do happen.

Remember the abuse Michel Foot got for wearing a ‘donkey jacket’ at Remembrance Sunday. Any chance he had of becoming PM disappeared that day.

Really? Haven't heard a thing about it on the BBC news channel. Perhaps they have some obscure article hidden away on their website somewhere to meet the standards quota.

Given LK is the BBC's political editor you'd have thought she would at least try to be neutral. I've noticed for some time that she rarely gets involved in SNP news items. The odd time she does her demeanour and body language clearly shows her distaste, which is probably why she avoids them.

The article she did on the BBC news website about Nicola Sturgeon ~ 1 week ago was outrageous and displayed clear bias.

Looks like another straight forward case of a socialist leader starts of popular, starts to lose popularity so fixed election to stay in power. People say no thanks and take to the streets. Army and Police decide to back the people and he stands down and flees to Mexico. New election due soon.

Norman Smith and Vicky Young both seem better to me. Can't see at all why she's top banana.

Personally think she is very good. And she’s top because she was willing to move away to ITV and the BBC were desperate to get her back so offered her the top job.

Another straight forward case of a far right US sponsered uprising to overthrow a popular left wing government. Army's generally do side with the far-right, as it generally means more funding and more wars.

If they were popular surely they wouldn’t have ignored term limits and then fixed an election?
That’s the problem with socialism. It always seems to lead to the suspension of democracy eventually.

They are all pretty capitalist free market economies. They have high welfare spending but that’s about it.

TBF this is what we are talking about with Corbyn and Labour. The way the media goes on you’d think Labour were the Khmer Rouge.

The hypocrisy is incredible. I had to fact check this meme because I couldn't believe that a newspaper would consider it's readers to be so thick that they'd swallow the blatant lies but apparently they do and they are.

Not the BBC, but an express article (yeah, I know, I know....). But unionists seem to be getting their knickers in a twist over the unemployment figures in Scotland. - https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/12...-Brexit-latest

The article states: "The unemployment rate in Scotland is now 4 percent, compared with 3.8 percent for the UK as a whole."

What it omits to mention is that the unemployment rate in the North East of England is actually 5.9% - https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/news...hoZPuM_5PCuGjg

Growing evidence that Brexit is going to hurt the North far harder, regardless of whether it's in Scotland or the North of England. But that doesn't suit the expresses pro-brexit narrative of course.
