Bliar should resign as the head of a government which operated in

this

unprincipled manner. IMO he is not fit to govern.

He has been proven not to be a liar, by a top judge.


Given the fact that (as I wrote earlier) that Hutton came from what you
call a snotty university, how can YOU of all people have any faith in
what he says?

If a snot says they were above board, it means they could not prove
otherwise. If they could they would. Duh!



You really do not understand what 'Terms of reference' mean.
Under the terms of reference Load Hutton had to work to (imposed by HMG and
himself) he came to almost the only conclusion he could.



No even unde hose terms, he could have been a lot more critical of bliar
and Campbell. He chose not to be.

*You* might have a problem with this, but the reality is that perhaps the
majority of the viewing public want soap operas, etc, given the viewing
figures. And since the BBC is funded by all those who possess a TV, it's
only fair the majority is catered for.


That is not, though, what the BBC is there for, nor what its licence
fee funding is intended to achieve. Commerical channels chase ratings
in order to generate advertising revenue: that's the right place for
mindless/populist "entertainment". The BBC does not *need* to compete
with such dross, and it would be entirely within its charter not to do
so.


I can't remember the exact wording of the BBC charter (perhaps Dave P does)
but it goes something like ...to inform, educate and entertain...

Now you might not like the order in which it does those things but the BBC
has as much right to do them as any other broadcaster. What does annoy me is
how BBC 1 and BBC 2 are competing with each other, if you watch the 10 pm
news on BBC 1 (including your own regions news out put etc.) you than miss
the start of newsnight on BBC 2 for example.

This argument is put many times, but if the BBC concentrated on minority
interests, its funding would be withdrawn in short order - there is
already a high level of public opinion that would like to see the end of
the licence.

Perhaps there's space for a subscription channel that only makes the
programmes you want to watch, but I'd guess you'll have to set it up and
run it yourself. ;-)


Actually, it appears that the BBC is increasingly putting the
programming that I would prefer to watch on channels that are funded
from the licence fee, but I cannot receive ... :-(


Things like the Clark Diaries? Very good it is too, It's scheduled for a
repeat on BBC2, IIRC.

It tells me to be profoundly depressed about the sources of "news"
that seem to be preferred by the citizenry of the US of A -- I suspect
that there's a connection between this statistic and the reported
believe of large portions of the American population that the result
of the war in Iraq is that "we got the guy who did 9/11".

I watched the BBC at the same
period and felt ashamed to be British.


Contrary to the beliefs of the loony right, including the editors of
several particularly nasty tabloid newspapers, the BBC's N&CA output
is not only of exceedingly high quality, its the only internationally
recognized news organization that really does cover the views of all
sides without bias. To prefer Fox over the BBC is to show a desire to
hear *only* a right-wing, (neo)conservative slant on what's happening
in the world.

Just try looking at the disposable incomes from 1979 onwards and what they
can purchase( apart from houses!). Today's living standards( whilst
declining under Bliar and Brown since 1997) are far and away better than in
1979. The Tories( apart from Thatcher), as a whole were economically
incompetent at managing the economy (as a result of trusting the treasury
opinion of the day?) and their rank and file politicians(lawyers?) lacked
any real economic understanding. The Thatcher government was absolutely
correct in trying to preserve a low tax environment and achieved far more
than any government before or since. The Tories failed miserably once the
incompetents Major and Clark took over. Brown learned from the US experience
of the early 1990s and realised that in a recession it is essential to
reduce interest rates to try to maintain economic activity. I was in the US
at this time, and on the whole, there was no significant recession. He has
followed this course and it has been very successful. However, the present
"tax the average income earner" to fund inefficient government spending
programmes and achieve the socialist state so beloved of Scottish
politicians is, I believe, about to fall apart, as the wealth producing part
of the economy( making things) is either rushing offshore(call centres etc)
or investing in other countries. The tax grab from individuals has, I
believe, risen by 50% since 1997 and there is virtually nothing to show for
it. It's nice to see good economic activity, but unless there is some
incentive for greedy individuals to establish businesses here, there will be
no real growth. With a budget deficit of £50B this year, falling income and
corporation tax revenues, increasing interest rates and taxes, the outlook
looks grim. I'd be interested to see the real figures for Scottish
unemployment rates for the last 12 months, my impression is that they are
rising quite rapidly, apart from the people involved in not finishing the
Scottish Parliament building!

Another one brainwashed by the right wing press.

We are talking about those same unions
that had brought about the demise
of two governments aren't we?


No union brought down any government at all.

The ones responsible for the winter of discontent?


What discontent?


You are kidding, of course.....


Not at all. The 1979 winter was a normal winter. The odd inconvenience
here and there for some people. Raving right tabloids said there was lots
of discontent. Hogwash!

Blair has done a wonderful job.


.... at what he does best.


Running the country well. Very, very well!!!!!

That Hutton report was fantastic wasn't it? Great report.

Nice to have some examples, rather than rhetoric.


Just try looking at the disposable incomes from 1979 onwards and what they
can purchase( apart from houses!). Today's living standards( whilst
declining under Bliar and Brown since 1997) are far and away better than

in
1979. The Tories( apart from Thatcher),


You are mad! Thatcher?

He said she was to create a meritocracy. The parasites in the
establishment - jobs for boys keep the rich happy brigade - were scared
stiff that the gravy train would end. I thought a meritocracy from a Tory.
Unheard of of. This is against the class strata of what they uphold. The
Tories uphold a ruling class and land in the hand of the few leaching off
the rest. When she left the public school/Oxbridge parasites were still in
charge, holding all the top civil service jobs, military, judiciary,
academia, etc. She utterly failed.

Every Tory government since the war has left the country in an economic
mess, while Labour have left office with it sound. FACT!

It was not sexed up, Hutton said so.


So you are saying that Hutton must be lying then?

The fact the document was massaged by downing street is a known fact
that is not open to debate - they published the evidence themselves on
their own web site.

Demonstrating their grasp of all things IT, they released the MS Word
document complete with its (hidden embedded) list of recent editors and
revisions still in it:-
