You cross the BBC at your peril, as Boris has found out. <br /><br />The BBC definitely pursue vendettas. They went after the Sky cycling team - and have effectively won that battle by getting Sky to withdraw from cycling. They destroyed Carol Thatcher. They have gone after Farage. They have sought more recently to destroy Mogg. <br /><br />But look who they protect: Alan Yentob...ear-biter Alan Davies...arm-biter Mark Thompson...Jimmy Savile...<br /><br />And look who they have promoted: violent "Drill" artists...the IRA*...Malcolm X...the Clintons.<br /><br />* People might look askance at that claim, that the BBC has promoted the IRA. But it has to be seen in the context of how they treat people like Farage, Mogg and Johnson...they will ask them questions about their (non-existent) links to Far Right "hate" and "violence". They never ask the Sinn Fein spokespeople about their very real and proven links with hateful and deadly violence.
