“PHONETICALLY SPEAKING” To reflect the fast pace of world news, my blog is probably best served as a stream-of-consciousness text. Fast and unadulterated. With this approach, and on first encounter, text might not seem to scan. This is because I am dyslexic. Instead of keeping the proof-readers busy, I would rather let my blog updates of my visual work stand as a record of my experience of dyslexia, which I am keen that you now get to enjoy too. Unlike some news outlets, I hereby excuse myself the need for a ‘corrections’ section! The excitement of a new language is something I’m quite familiar with, and it is with this ‘joie de vivre’ that I am delighted to guide you through my thought and work processes, more phonetically (than fanatically) speaking.

BBC Hardis Gravter

From the ivory towers of the BBC, soon to present “Britain’s Hardest Grafter” 

We know the BBC news gets their leads for the newsroom from the morning Guardian newspaper, but I didn’t realize they have started watching Channel 4 reality TV shows. To give them ideas on their own TV programs. They must be watching outing Benefits Street and then accidentally starting watching a film dystopian action series The Hunger Games. 

As even American cable network broadcasters haven’t lowered themselves to directly attack the working classes.

One of the Labour MPs, who is working for the people up in Sheffield. In a Huffington Post blog, Louise Haigh MP wrote: “I am uneasy about middle-class  BBC executives finally giving up on any pretense they serve the public interest and instead rushing to become part of a steady demonization of working-class people.”

Ken Loach spoke out Loach told the Morning Star: “It’s fascist TV where poverty is seen as entertainment.” It shows the idea of ““BBC programs targeting the poorest people.” “It shows the depths to which our public sector has sunk,” .

Over 25,000 has signed a petition to get the show cancelled, fortunately as writing this the BBC has pulled the programme.

We are forced to pay a TV licence for them to spend money on programs like this. If we want to watch live television in the UK, even if we do not want to watch the BBC.
