Panorama

The Panorama programme on Primark must have been about as wrong as any programme could be since even its watchdog, the BBC Trust, has condemned it and insisted on an apology being made on TV. It is quite extraordinary though that rather than an independent body having the authority to deal with complaints about BBC programmes it is the BBC itself which is allowed to do so. Yet another example of a conflict of interest. It is contrary to all the laws of natural justice that the BBC should be allowed to be its own judge and jury. So often justified complaints about BBC bias, misrepresentation and sheer distortion of the facts are dismissed out of hand by the BBC Trust. Visit the Biased-BBC website http://www.biased-bbc.blogspot.com/ for numerous examples of what I am talking about. What kind of government would allow a propaganda organisation to be its own policeman? Only a government that is in tune with the propaganda that is disseminated by such an organisation. It was, of course, a Labour Government that, when restructuring the BBC, provided for the BBC to act as its own judge and jury. This is something that when there is time the Government has got to change along with thousands of other horrors brought in by both the EU and Labour.
