I find that I can only listen to 5 or 10 minutes of the BBC Today programme before the bias drives me to the off button. So this morning's 08:00 news should not have surprised me. Three articles set the pro-Labour 'narrative' nicely: first news that some UK manufacturing companies were bringing manufacturing back to the UK positive economic news), second a report that Gordon Brown was to deliver an upbeat New Years message (to contrast with Conservative pessimism/realism) and third that papers released under the 30 years rule showed how Margaret Thatcher wanted deeper cuts than her economic team (shamelessly linked to predictions about an incoming Conservative government).
Five minutes of radio that sum up the pro-Labour approach that the BBC Today programme takes and will increasingly push as a general election approaches. Five minutes, and an attitude, that the Conservative leadership need to address urgently, leaving it until after an election might be too long; the BBC need to be tackled about their blatant bias now.

The Media Programme on radio 4 was more interesting, and revealed more factual information and opinion than I am sure the odious Quin, Kearney, Naughty, and Humphries would be comfortable with.
Not only is the Toady Programme now being stridently biased but it is also getting boring.
This morning was a watershed for the Toady Programme.
PD James was guest editor and did a marvellous job of totally demolishing Thompson who was again revealed as a bumbling windbag with the presentation skills of a novice, let alone the CEO of a public company.
Her interview with Jack (Man of) Straw was less inspiring, as she asked the right questions in a too submissive manner, and let him windbag on and on about his total lack of effectiveness.
So now we know it takes a vocal intelligent 89 year old woman to show these beeboids how to do their job in a professional manner.
