Toxteth Riots, Howe Proposed Managed Decline For City

is the headline, in what way is that biased or misleading ?

unless you are seeing something I cannot ?
even the torygrah led with the same story
the BBC can be very blatant in their bias in some stories, but I don’t think they are being disingenuous here.

more laughable is that the times led with ‘thatcher and the expenses claim for a ladder ‘ or some such lighthearted example of Tory inocuousness.
now I call that a (Murdoch / Tory) conspiracy

Kimbers – has the title changed on the BBC? That’s a serious question, not a wind up. I was sure it said something different.

I also read the article in DT and reckon that they may have done the same thing on-line. Was this after Howe gave his side of the story on R4? I read both articles on-line early this morning.

If not, then you are right and I am completely wrong!! The bias and prejudice were all mine (by the looks of things!) as I read something into the BBC that actually wasn’t there. Maybe Zokes OP clouded my perspective.

Thanks for pointing out my mistake – hopefully the last of the year!!

Leaves – muttering, “must read more carefully…”

I don’t see how the proposal was all that unreasonable, to be honest. Isn’t there a guy in the US who is leading the way with respect to certain cities there? I mean cities rise and they fade. That’s history. It would not have been so radical to suggest that Liverpool had had its day.

At least I don’t think so.

Liverpool got it easy, try being Scottish during the Wicked witch’s reign….

Seems like a bit of a non-story, Tories in thinking about pooing on Northern monkeys…REALLY?

BBC REPORTS theres 80,000 pissed scots due in edinburgh tonight, somebody better tell them thatcher hasnt died, its just new years eve a day early.
