    don't all broadcasters when reporting politics on the main stations have a duty of balance, a blooper reel of his quotes intercut with the Nuremburg Rally may have failed that test.

    in fairness he didn't say much they could have used to seem that credible. wouldn't buy a 2nd hand car off the bloke let alone entrust him with the nation

      As for the hidden hand different people think different things I guess. So much disinformation mixed with real you could get lost. Some people think the world is getting along nicely on its own, I happen to take the view it is being lead down a very dark path.

      Thats for another topic though, if you have interest or argument against we could start one?

      EDIT: On and why else would the media try and make him sound Credible if not to serve a purpose? if a purpose who's purpose and to what end? There are enough soundbites to make him sound like a fool but they chose to make him sound credible. What does that say to you?
      The 'media' isn't trying to make him sound credible though- he's been on Question Time once, that's it. Have you got any newspaper articles, any clips from TV that are trying to make him credible, besides this one appearance on QT? I get the very strong impression that the media doesn't like him much, much less that he is some sort of puppet in a shadowy conspiracy with vague notions of us going 'down a very dark path'. I can't be arsed getting into a debate about consipiracy theories, but I will say that they are always good at skewing facts retrospectively to fit around things that have already happened. They tend not to be so hot on the prediction side of things (which they would be if they were true).

          I was referring to the UK channels who are covered by Ofcom or whoever it is rules, not Fox 'News'.

            The three main parties have over seen this for decades while lining their own pockets. Since the end of WW2 its been a steady nose dive into oblivion. The only alternatives are don't vote or vote for a fringe party such as the BNP(who may be awful or not)
            That's complete rubbish. "A steady nosedive into oblivion"? Are you kidding me? Do you have any appreciation of what life was like 60 years ago, just after the war? Do you use a ration book when you go to Tescos? This is just the sort of rubbish the BNP and the Daily Mail thrives on.

              Third rate European? Where do you live?! I've been to places like Prague and Budapest which are meant to be among the best cities in Europe and overall they are both terrible compared to any city in the UK. A nice bit in the middle then you are into the slums, basically. Most European places look like that.

              The UK is largely fine, and thats due to the massive amount of tax we all pay.

                Some yes, I agree. Some however are written down on paper long before the events have begun to unfold.

                If you really want to read something interesting read a Pale White horse by Wiliam H cooper. 1984 is also vital reading material, unless you consider what is written in 1984 to what is happening now a Coincidence.

                  The GMTV segments were an eye opener. They highlighted some of the statements he made and didn't play the counter arguments. It was almost like a party broadcast, a statement of policies direct from the horse's mouth, which we knew anyway.

                    My Grandparents lived through all that and they see the Country as less than useless now.

                    Also for a lot league tables we are fast approaching being near bottom for most of them for stuff like Education, jobs and child welfare. This country stinks and the head in the sand I'm alright attitude just makes it worse.

                        I might regret asking, but which conspiracy-type events were predicted in writing and then came true?

                          The Bible Code ! its all in the ancient hebrew text if you re-arrange the letters a bit and jumble them around.

                            By god- you're right! I think possibly the lizard people are somehow involved in all this too...

                            Then again, who's to say this forum isn't just run by the hidden hand too, and we're all only on here because it's what 'they' want us to do as sheeple. I'm afraid

                            That William Cooper book- did you mean "Behold a Pale Horse"? I was just googling it. From a cursory search it doesn't exactly look like some sort of definitive evidence for conspiracies. And as for 1984, well I don't really know what to say in response to that.

                              QT was a bit stupid last night id did turn into the obvious "im a black person do you hate me personally Nick Griffin".

                              BNP may have largly bad values, and try to represent a form of acceptable racsim in their modern guise, but some of what Griffin says is of merit.
