BBC: best ever headline

How on earth did I miss it last year? Did I miss it at all, or are approaching old age and anger messing with my memories like Willow interfering with Tara in her sleep?

Perhaps I blogged furiously about it at the time, but supermarket budget vodka and absolutely everything that President Obama, Gordon Brown, David Cameron and the BBC have done since have wiped that spurt of fury from my recollections.

Perhaps it was because it was my birthday and I was therefore eating a curry with Mrs. Northwester and watching The Matrix or The Thirteenth Warrior or some other towering cultural item that (half) explains but (mostly) disappoints as a metaphor for our times.

Anyway, it might amuse readers to think on’t and chuckle about the BBC’s pallid cultural relativism and its moral compass stuck due Left. Are you ready for this? Are you sitting comfortably?

Then I’ll begin.

“Some Imams 'biased against women’”

Many women felt they did not get a fair hearing under Sharia law

A Muslim think tank has found some UK Imams discriminate against women when enforcing Islamic Sharia law.

Whatever next, O my lucky readers? What other discomforting situations might the Gramscian BBC disingenuously camouflage, soften, and excuse in their mission to see us all onto the slave block or into the graveyard?

Suggestions, please, as some of you have been in good inventive form this week. I’ll start us off, as it’s Friday and all.

“Some Russians ‘were a bit peckish’ under Soviet Communism.”

Historical research has uncovered contemporary accounts describing the absence of some foodstuffs from Soviet-era village shops and department stores on more than one occasion.
