Code monkey

Not sure I can think of a good excuse for the video below - I just enjoyed it as it has the essence of an IT job I used to have a few years ago.



Now I have so coding of my own to do today..

BBC News grovels : ITV news reports

Thank goodness for ITV news.

I couldn't believe how brazen the support for the Labour party and its government was on the BBC's Six o'clock news today.

If there was any possible way of giving Gordon Brown a helping hand the BBC found it. From starting with a quote of inheritance tax threshold for couples going to £700k ( rather than the actual £600k through to finding the only financial expert in the UK not to point out that you can get the full £600k before Alistair Darlings con job this afternoon ).

Only Nick Robinson calls a spade a spade, and we can assume he's still pissed of at Andrew Marr taking the day off to work as the prime minister's spokesperson on Sunday.

Compare to ITV news - the full works. They point out its a bit of a trick. They point out that Labour are in effect delivering a Tory budget, when we had Gordon Brown telling everyone he didn't want an election so he could outline his so called Vision for the country.

They even described Alistair Darlings statement as intellectual theft. They also didn't down play the effect of the failing economy and increase in borrowing ( the Brown Broadcasting Cooperation by contrast run pictures of all the places where more money was to be spent ).

The BBC then went on to show that sad excuse for a politician Ed Balls showing Tanya Byron round and internet suite. More good publicity for Labour.

I'll say it again - the BBC is a direct threat to democracy in this country. It is institutionally left wing and unprofessional in its news coverage with blatant bias. 12% cut in staff - who cares if this is the low grovelling quality of their output.
