I didn't think ordinary folk were allowed to have a debate about immigration for fear of being
( wrongly ) accused of racism ?

Quote:
Robinson said BBC figures in charge during the late 1990s and early 2000s believed a "warts-and-all" debate over immigration would "unleash some terrible side of the British public".
He told The Sunday Times (£): "They feared having a conversation about immigration, they feared the consequence."
Nick Robinson was in post during those years he refers to.

Why is Nick Robinson speaking out now about the BBC's “liberal bias” against reporting immigration? Nick Robinson is a major political reporter for the BBC, if not the primary political reporter. Nick Robinson is as much a part of the BBC as Andy Pandy and the Flower Pot men once were; so who has given Nick Robinson the green light to speak out now? And as a reliable reporter with an honest eye on politics, both inside and outside the BBC, why didn't he speak out years ago? What is the BBC now up to; is the fact that so many people are now refusing to pay the BBC TV tax beginning to hurt the BBC's finances?

Quote:
However, he said he thought the BBC was "not getting it right" on immigration.
It comes months after an official review found the BBC did not accurately reflect the public's growing concern about immigration because of a "deep liberal bias".
Nick Robinson claims the BBC didn't get it right on immigration because of a deep “liberal bias” within the BBC. That proclamation from a died-in-the wool BBC person is tantamount to treason against his employer. That announcement undermines the whole of the BBC's news reporting over many years because that “liberal bias” has inevitably influenced every news-cast where there has been a political dimension in the reported story. The same “liberal bias” has guaranteed the BBC's commitment to the scam of man-made global warming/climate change that is now pricing people out of essential energy supplies. The same “liberal bias” will have influenced the BBC's reporting of the same-sex agenda, and its increasingly frequent portrayal in TV dramas. Maybe that “liberal bias” is the reason that Jimmy Savile went unchallenged all those years he was involved with the BBC. The BBC's “liberal bias” can bee seen in its pro-EU reporting over the years. That “liberal bias” would also have effected BBC reports on the Middle East situation, where the BBC persistently reports from a pro-Palestinian Arab stance, one that paints Israel as the aggressor.

Makes you wonder whether he's moving on ?

If not then it's a BBC ploy for some reason

There are some very interesting angles on immigration and the BBC reported on in this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oLGq1U1 ... detailpage starting at 19 minutes and 15 seconds into the video, and lasting about 15 minutes.

I listen to LBC radio all day and just about every show has imigration as a topic with just that commie dinasour james o,brian defending the invasion.
the politico,s must sit up and take notice,if we were french,no doubt we would have had a revolution by now ?.
i was planing on emigrating this year but it seems the English are no longer welcome to some countries in europe,as for getting any help or money even for kids,ficticous or not....forget it,it dont and never has happened. :roll:

They just don't understand that the country is full. They read out a statistic the other day that as well as being the most populated country in Europe sq miles by pop count we are twice as densely populated than France.

Increase the population but don't increase schools, hospitals, transport, etc - utter madness

Every nation is multicultural, if you're willing to look back far enough. But, any attempt to link Britain's past and the immigration explosion of recent times is disingenuous at best. The similarities are few and far between.

The sheer overwhelming numbers and massive change in ethnic demographics resulting from the poorly managed policy of recent years is simply unprecedented, unsustainable and (thankfully) growing increasingly unpopular with voters.

Why do they do it? Well it's complicated but it does revolve around the demographics and the need to import labour (tax receipts). Farage made a very telling statement yesterday that we will all be poorer when they do get around to slowing it considerably/stopping it.

The argument is now moving towards yes ok we will be poorer but the alternative is worse.

The country has been mismanaged for some time now, with a severe lack of joined up thinking, the political gravy train is just a job, the pay is excellent so attracts those who don't want to get their hands dirty, the failure is due to the severe lack of original thinking, and towing the party line, lack of forethought, and dogma, they try and run the country like a business, by wannabe directors, there are plenty out there that can do the job, without the political dogma, take away the political dogma, employ a proven MD with a board of directors become Great Britain and Co Ltd and start again. :roll:
