BBC left wing propoganda - yet again.

OK I really should get some work done but this page from the BBC really annoys me.

Its billed as the opinions of voters ( who they somehow have pictures on file for - handy when you need some guaranteed left wing views of course ).

Lets see who they quote
DENISE CURTIS, 39, IT CONSULTANT, DERBYSHIRE
"Before today I wasn't sure about him as leader of the party but now I'm reassured.

I was uncertain about him because he does lack charisma and I thought that was letting the party down. But now I realise we don't need a celebrity in charge, we need someone who knows what they are doing and that is Gordon Brown. "

Notice its "The Party" - we can assume Ms Curtis is a paid up member of Labour I think.

PAT MORRIS, 70, RETIRED, ESSEX
"I was born and bred Labour, my father was a councillor and I was a party activist, so in the past I would never have dreamed of voting for anyone else.

More recently though I have become disillusioned with the party."

Another Labour party member. She's disillusioned, but that her fault for supporting Labour in the first place.
GARRY MCNULTY, 48, RETIRED, SOUTHAMPTON
A Labour voter who has voted Conservative only to spite Brown over the 10p tax rate.
CATHERINE COUSTON, 42, TEACHER, GLASGOW
Known Labour supporter - as another BBC quotes page explains here.
"People have to wake up and realise that if they turn away from the Labour Party the Conservatives will be back in"

And yet the BBC introduces these people not as Labour supporters but as a cross section of those who read its site. The presence of their pictures clearly shows they are not at random.

    Gordon Brown's speech: Your views

    Gordon Brown used his speech to the Labour Party conference to say he was a serious man doing a serious job and that this was no time for a novice.

    Here a selection of BBC News website readers have been telling us what they thought of his speech and whether they were impressed by his performance.

The old, old game of propaganda again.
