The writer had to decide wether he would refer to the islands as The Falklands or The Malvinas - why did he decide on Malvinas ? :-/
There are plenty of examples in recent times of "jesuit thinking" in our media. Particularily the Beeb.
Incidentally - for those of you who dont believe in BBC left wing bias. The director general stated a couple of months ago that the Beeb has indeed had a left wing bias, for a long time. But he announced that it has now stopped. No doubt his apparent road to Damascus conversion was a stunt to try to prevent the new govt. from giving the Beeb a kicking.
Thankfully it doesnt seemed to have worked.

It's a bloody disgrace and an insult to the good people who defend our great nation.

It's like referring to Northern Ireland as Ireland.

Now that is a real issue still simmering in the background!!

Most of the media these days seem to refer to anywhere on the Emerald Isle as Ireland. Not a minor oversight imo. It happens in too many places and too regularily for that. Its that old lefty stranglehold again imo.

Appeasement didnt work in the 30,s - dont understand why they thought it would work in the 90,s.

On this I think so, this is a brilliant kids programme don't read too much into it, it is. after all a tv programme as miss Vamps reminds me...

Fair comment.

Both my kids love it. As the thread title suggests, maybe I am too alert for instances of BBC bias.

Reasonably  balanced and objective I would say Nick.......

I quite agree A, appeasing Republican/'Loyalist' violence in Northern Ireland has merely stored up many problems for the future.

Likewise, appeasing fundamentalist groups here in Great Britain - in the name of enlightenment and understanding - is a mistake, the results of which will be manifest in the coming years.

But the Director general  of the BBC would disagree.

The conventional idea of sanity scares me more than being mad does BJ.
