On this morning's Today programme the truth of John Humphrys' allegiance to the Conservative party was exposed. Humphrys spent a great deal of the programme cosying up to Chris Patten, that old Thatcherite who single handedly dismantled our glorious Empire and sold off Hong Kong on the cheap to China, and who is going to become the BBC's Chairman! Listening to Humphrys' sycophantic chortles at Patten's in-jokes was sickening. Shortly afterwards Humphrys tried to undermine the credibility of the Leader of the Opposition, Ed Milliband, but I am pleased to report Glorious Ed got the better of him! Humphrys must have felt a complete fool as Milliband first hit Humphrys by answering his questions openly causing Humphrys' to concede "Well, I must admit I was taken back by your honesty". Milliband followed this up with total humiliation of Humphrys by telling him "You got in a bit of a tangle over that" in reference to the interview with Cameron yesterday before exposing the lies that the Prime Minister told over the counting of the votes under the AV system.
The BBC has been shown to be a hotbed of Tory extremism led by Humphrys and it's time this right-wing propaganda machine was dismantled.

Good God Mark - you have made so many factual errors I have lost count....
Surely this thread is a joke, a silly wind up and you are not so dumb as to believe a word of what you wrote there.
Anyway - most is so silly, the references to the Guardianistas of the BBC, in particular I will just remind anyone who dont remember a couple of facts about Patten in case someone does not realise you are joking about that.
Chris Patten of course was a 'Tory Wet' and was never a Thatcherite. Truly 'wetter than wet'.... I had my own run-in with him at a YC conference way back in the old wet v dry days...Patten in fact is far closer politically to Blair than ever he was to Thatcher, in fact he was to the left of Blair in anything.
Hong Kong - sold off cheap...LOL - Britain had a lease on the 'new territories' and when that leave ended they had to be handed back and what was left, Hong Kong island, was not viable on its own and it was sensible to hand that over too in favour of improved Anglo-Sino relations.
Well I wont bother with the rest in case anyone thinks it worth taking seriously.
