An article by the BBC entitled "How could a tornado hit London?"
Perhaps it got fed up with Londoners feeling of self importance like the rest of us? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6219280.stm |

London is now filled with ethnic, sexual and leftwing nutters (high
percentage of Scots in national and local politics) They are self obsessed . It's ironic though, because some contributors to this NG believe it's the self navel gazing English that produce this rubbish. In many historical societies it's the ambition driven by paucity that seizes the day. "Simon Wyndham" wrote in message ... An article by the BBC entitled "How could a tornado hit London?"

Same old chestnut, when Scotland gets snow, it gets news coverage in London,
If a Tornado happened anywhere else in the country that too would make the news in London, so why should London's tornado not get news coverage elsewhere. London is the Capital, of course its going to make the headlines. "Simon Wyndham" wrote in message ... An article by the BBC entitled "How could a tornado hit London?"

Perhaps it got fed up with Londoners feeling of self importance like the rest of us? http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6219280.stm The beeb has a delightful waste of space known as 'Newswatch' which is where the beeb can tick the box that says "listened to feedback from viewers" and then promptly ignore any complaints and go on as before. One yesterday was about the news being far too London-centric. The coverage of the London tornado was mentioned, noting how much coverage was given to it, whereas there was effectively b*gg*r-all about the Gloucestershire one or Aberfeldy & how the Brum one got hardly any coverage compared to the 2.5 hrs continuous coverage as lead story on News24 of the London one. Naturally they had some bod from News24 in attendance who did the standard thing which is, in effect, "Thank the nice little viewer for writing in, but I'm an important media editor/producer and I know best and we shall go on doing exactly what we've done before as we know best. Patronising? Moi?" |

Crass eh? what's all this about then http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/6164805.stm The truth does have a habit of repeating itself. As I've always maintained the left social marxists in this country hate America, Israel and England especially the elderly and the country side. |
