Tory corruption: Is this how they’ll get into the BBC?

Last Updated: May 13, 2016By

Yesterday we all heard that the Conservative government wants the BBC to be regulated by Ofcom, rather than being self-regulating, as it is now.

Ofcom has released a statement saying it is looking forward to its new role.

It is easy to understand why.

The deputy chair of Ofcom is Lady Sheila Noakes. Here she is:

She is also a Conservative member of the House of Lords.

    Ofcom another useless excremental organisation set up like other similar watchdogs to protect the utilities and services from negative comments from their customers and ensure the safety and profits of commercial organisations. I think we have seen the light now as to how these scams of alleged independent tame commercial police forces do not work….they are totally useless apart from making good recruiting organisations for same failures to get lucrative jobs with the commercial concerns that they were supposed to robustly police. sweet smell of greed and corruption again.

    Tories are a bunch of extremely unpleasant fraudsters. They lied and fraudulently cheated their way into power. Now they are hell bent on making sure they cannot be dislodged.

    I think Nye Bevan’s classic description that Tories are lower than vermin could be re-written to say that “Tories are like Termites as they infest everthing from the inside with a view to destroying it”
