Chuka Umunna: “It is obviously disappointing that this candidate has chosen to pledge allegiance to another party - he has let down his fellow candidates and activists.”

Lol.

I don't know why people get so worked up about perceived BBC "bias".

[whotobeakiller]

That is not true. There is a strong Socialist argument to oppose the EU. They view it as a enabler for multi National Neo liberalism and Capatilism.

The rights view is that they don’t like like Johnny foriegners telling us what to do.

 

How many working class people who voted voted leave do you think decided to leave just because 'Johnny foreigner was telling them what to do'

 

I think you will find many voted out because of the disadvantage it permits to many working people...shame Labour didn't see it and it will be their downfall

Nothing perceived about it. It is fact the BBC are biased

[cheshirevaliant]

Perhaps so, although I'd argue that if the right think the BBC is too left wing and the left think it's too right wing, then it's probably in roughly the right position. That said, I still don't know why people get so worked up about it.

Only problem is people`s perceptions differ.

Interestingly, both the Tories and the Labour Party claim that the BBC is biased. That must mean they are doing their best not to be.

They have to blame someone Jean.

I've not denied that they are pro-EU. I said I didn't care. Where did you get your figures from? Link? The only stats I can find online are from The Express, Guido and Spiked.

 

You need to try a bit harder.

Try the Institute of Economic Affairs @ iea analysis bbc bias.

Just waiting for some evidence from the left as usual.

Some people get so worked up about it because the are made to pay them for doing it?

Is that a joke? It is a right wing/neo liberal organisation

They aren't made to pay though? Every other (major) channel has a catch up service now which can be watched quite legally without a TV licence. It also has the dual benefit of saving you getting irate about something reasonably trivial like this too.

 

I rarely watch the BBC to be honest. I used to watch Question Time reasonably avidly but it just winds me up now, so I stopped.

I rarely watch it as well,perhaps MOTD,QT or Line of Duty,that's about it.

I have switched to Netflix and Amazon Prime recently with the intention of cancelling the BBC licence in the near future.Like you say you can still use the catch up service to watch what you want.

I don't want to pay into an organisation that isnt impartial.

Can you name the number of BBC Question Time episodes where Leavers have actually outnumbered Remainers on the panel.

I'll give you a clue,you don't need two hands?

Still not biased?
