BBC funding cut by £2 billion.

[Tigercubrider]

Statistically the BBC is seen as biased to the Right by the Left while being claimed to be Left biased by the Right.
So long as everyone complains they are probably close to being reasonably biased.

it does any me that they would have a climate scientist on to discuss global warming and then “for balance” have Nigel Lawson on to deny that climate change existed. Ok so an ex politician but sure as hell no scientist. He has large donations from coal and oil

This govt are defunding the BBC because they are intent on controlling the media.

Govt won power by a big con trick known as Brexit, they can’t have the BBC telling the truth and exposing Brexit lies.

Incredible. Then almost 99% of the UK is getting a cut as real inflation is rampant. Its a FREEZE mate nothing more than that.
The way the story is titled reads as a 'cut' a real cut EG getting 100 quid and the gov taken away 20 quid

Its a freeze don't fall for it, lol.

Just another 'on the brink' Daily Wail load of waffle, deigned to get the flag shaggers aroused.

I've just paid my fee along with probably 20 million+ other people. Nothing to see here.

Sadly, too many people do not have the brains to watch/read left/right leaning media and calculate the facts.

EG, Boris should be sacked. Boris is looking at people to fire that were responsible for the partygate emails etc.
Boris did not apologise etc. The truth of the matter is that Boris made a genuine mistake, it was his garden and he thought they were having their usal Friday business meetings with alchol invloved and as soon as he noted this, he and his wife left having manged to thank them for their hard work.
The truth behind the story, it's a witch hunt against Boris, ROFL

It seems this may just be vote pleasers. Heard of 2 current ideas

Operation save big dog - pretty obvious what that is about. Clean up people in No10 looks to figure. Not Boris though.

Operation red meat. Talk about and maybe do various things that will please some voters. Mention of the BBC in various ways may be one and it seems involving the army to prevent modern boat people arriving around Dover may be another. Well that covers 2 or 3 groups of people. Tax cuts or not increasing, chnages etc might please another group. Much the same as Brexit was achieved. Gas prices have been likely to figure at some point anyway. Not too soon though.

The beeb really was anti left. Discussing the opinion poles and Labour's lead. Nothing to do with people voting for Starmer just not wanting Boris.

I seems the heading on this thread is currently talk not fact so why bother with correct figures.

If I didn't know any better and just randomly came across the BBC webshite, I'd think the BBC was a run by a woke unionised socialist charity from 1970, paid for by Putin and managed by Peston, with the copywriting done by Tower Hamlets Junior & Infant School.

And likewise for the programming, but managed by Derek Hatton and a crony collection of trendy spendthrift Champagne Socialists awfully keen with other's money.

You don't know any better. It's just the news Woods like any other outlet. Stop being such a drama queen.

No one seems to able to show any bias though, lol.

The BBC themselves have openly admitted to bias.

Not really clear if the BBC was a run by a woke unionised socialist charity from 1970, is your view.

That view always makes me smile. Many of the things it relates to are pushed by the people they voted for and voting for another lot wouldn't make any difference. Maybe resurrect some bigoted politician or the other might be a solution. Some times some of them think certain news should just not be reported. Where does that end? Who decides what does get broadcast Nigh on nobody on youtube and facebook and a whole host of similar. Is that a problem?
