POOR old BBC! Seems they can’t get anything right these days.

Now Geoff Robb accuses them of left-wing bias for failing to give a platform to anti-EU views.

I haven’t seen the Parliamentary scrutiny committee report to which Geoff refers, but seeing the amount of BBC airtime that Ukip receives, it seems a bit rich to claim that the anti-EU voice goes unheard.

For my part, I can’t remember hearing much of a pro-EU argument on the BBC – maybe not surprising, considering how few mainstream politicians seem ready to defend our EU membership in public. But as regards BBC bias, surely it’s in the eye of the beholder?

From my perspective, the BBC leans to the right, as evidenced by their adulatory treatment of anything to do with the royal family – but perhaps that’s just me?
