BBC slurs

A bizarre story in The Telegraph today that:

"Baroness Thatcher once tried to seduce Sir Edward Heath during her hunt for a Conservative seat, a new BBC drama is claiming."


This seems quite unlikely as I thought that Sir Edward Heath was famous for two things; first for selling out the country by lieing about the consequences of joining the EEC and second for being most likely asexual or maybe a repressed homosexual.

The article concludes with one of my least favourite Labour MPs coming to the defence of the participants and a great line from the BBC:

"Denis MacShane, the Labour MP who is one of Sir Edward's biographers, refused to accept the suggestion.

He said: "It's delightful but wholly imagined. There is absolutely no evidence that Ted got closer to her than shaking her hand."

The BBC claimed the programme was a "light-hearted and imaginative film which delves under the skin of the Iron Lady for the first time".



The BBC spreading slurs against Conservatives is what we enjoy doing.


I wonder if the BBC will ever report any of the rumours that surround our current Prime Minister?
