Whitewash – Peter Johnston and the BBC’s Gaza Cover-Up
From its opening line, the Peter Johnston review into the Hamasgate BBC documentary reads less like an investigation and more like an institutional reflex – a superficial exercise in damage control. What it offers is not insight into editorial failings, but into how the BBC protects itself when caught out. Good faith – the phone call A particularly revealing failure in the Johnston review is … Continue reading Whitewash – Peter Johnston and the BBC’s Gaza Cover-Up
The lies of the CfMM – the Muslim Council’s attack dog
The Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM) sounds like such an official, well-intentioned and professional organisation with the purpose of ensuring integrity in journalism. In reality it functions as a political attack dog, created by the Muslim Council of Britain to bully journalists, enforce pro-Islamist guidelines across UK media, and erode the concept of objective truth by manufacturing fake counter-narratives and pumping them out on social … Continue reading The lies of the CfMM – the Muslim Council’s attack dog

The NUJ is hostile to Jewish journalists
For several years I had a press card to provide a layer of security while covering hostile street protests. My recent experience with the National Union of Journalists shows how behind the scenes, British Jews are being ‘othered’ by hostile actors and excluded from society. This is a personal journey of abuse and discrimination. The need to be protected Those who have been following my … Continue reading The NUJ is hostile to Jewish journalists
Channel 4 News takes direction from Hamas
Exclusive: Channel 4 News won awards for its reporting covering the Gaza conflict. So I went looking for an early Channel 4 news item to look more closely at what was so ‘award worthy’ about their reporting, and guess what I found… Channel 4 News, the first Doctor – and the viral story I started by looking for early news footage on the conflict from … Continue reading Channel 4 News takes direction from Hamas
Will BBC Verify apologise for spreading disinformation?
BBC Verify is meant to be an elite ‘fact-checking’ unit for one of the largest broadcast news organizations in the world. Instead, it turns out BBC Verify is just another obsessive anti-Israel unit manned by amateur hacks – a bunch of student journalists who cannot leave their activist days behind them, clearly do not understand what ‘fact-checking’ or professional journalism actually mean, and do not … Continue reading Will BBC Verify apologise for spreading disinformation?
The world has fallen into the moral abyss over Gaza
Why has nobody but Israel and the US demanded that civilians in Gaza be allowed to leave? And hold your reflexive answer to that question to the end. I want to talk here about the Gazan civilians – most of them considered refugees (70%+) by the international community (although I personally dispute that status). And I am going to do something few others seem to … Continue reading The world has fallen into the moral abyss over Gaza
BBC Verify – publicly funded Hamas propaganda
It now looks likely that Israel successfully eliminated Mohammed Sinwar and other leaders of Hamas in a targeted strike last week. Which leaves the BBC flagship unit ‘BBC Verify’ looking increasingly like an anti-Israel disinformation machine. The BBC Verify video on the ‘Gaza hospital strike’ On Tuesday afternoon (13 May 2025) Israel targeted key figures of the Hamas leadership who were hiding in a command … Continue reading BBC Verify – publicly funded Hamas propaganda
Dear Met Police – In all these ‘Freedoms’ where is mine?
I have a sincere question for the Metropolitan Police; In all these ‘Freedoms’ where is mine? A couple of weeks ago I was the victim of a racially aggravated attack. It is not the first attack against me or my property (my car in this latest case), and along with the chilling death threats I receive on almost a daily basis, it is clear that … Continue reading Dear Met Police – In all these ‘Freedoms’ where is mine?
The NYT, Mohsen Mahdawi and Another Pack of Lies
Mohsen Mahdawi has America eating out of the palm of his hand. The media is salivating for his byline. The camera can’t keep away from his face. Politicians are pretending to be pop stars, shouting into microphones to praise his release on bail. This is despite the fact that the one available court document shows him being questioned by the FBI for allegedly saying he … Continue reading The NYT, Mohsen Mahdawi and Another Pack of Lies
