‘We are appalled’: BBC apologises for losing murder victim's clothes loaned to network by schoolgirl's mother


19 Sep, 2021 15:52

The BBC apologised on Sunday after one of its former editor’s allegedly lost a murdered schoolgirl’s clothes, which had been lent to the network to be DNA tested as part of a show on the tragic crime.

Michelle Hadaway – the mother of 9-year-old Karen Hadaway, who was found strangled to death in Brighton in 1986 – loaned her daughter’s clothes to former BBC presenter and editor Martin Bashir in 1991 after he said the network could do further DNA testing on the items in an effort to find evidence against Hadaway’s murderer.

According to the Daily Mail, which investigated the incident, the victim’s mother gave Bashir “a bag containing Karen's school sweatshirt, T-shirt, knickers and vest” and Bashir “even left her a signed receipt.”

The planned show was never aired, however, and the clothes were never given back to the Hadaway family. Hadaway protested in May that Bashir “has never apologised to me, never contacted me” and that the clothes were “the last thing that I had to do with my daughter.”

“To not give them to me back, or to not have them DNA tested, is a bit shameful,” she declared.

James Mark Dakin Purnell (born 2 March 1970) is a British broadcasting executive and former Labour Party politician who served as Work and Pensions Secretary and Culture Secretary in the Brown Government from 2007 to 2009. In October 2016, he became BBC's Director of Radio, in addition to his other role as the BBC's Director of Strategy and Digital, a job he had held since March 2013.[1][2] In 2020 he left the BBC to become vice-chancellor of University of the Arts London.[3]

While a Labour MP, he was a member of the Work and Pensions Select Committee in the House of Commons from 2001 to 2003, the Chair of the All-Party Group on Private Equity and Venture Capital between 2002 and 2003, and the Chair of Labour Friends of Israel from 2002 to 2004.[8]
(...)
In December 2008, Purnell proposed charging interest on crisis loans to the unemployed and pensioners made by the Department for Work and Pensions, which were interest-free, at a rate of up to 26.8% per annum. This was met with great hostility and was blocked by the intervention of the Prime Minister, Gordon Brown.[13]

Purnell was one of many MPs involved in political difficulties following the revelations of the 2009 expenses scandal.

Here's yet another BBC jew:

Quote:
Lionel Blue OBE (6 February 1930 – 19 December 2016) was a British Reform rabbi, journalist and broadcaster, described by The Guardian as "one of the most respected religious figures in the UK".[1] He was best known for his longstanding work with the media, most notably his wry and gentle sense of humour on Thought for the Day on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. He was the first British rabbi publicly to declare his homosexuality.[2]
(...)
Blue was born in the East End of London in 1930. His parents were Jews of Russian origin and his father worked as a tailor.[3][1] Blue did not receive a religious education, declaring that he lost his religious faith at the age of five after a petitionary prayer failed to remove Adolf Hitler and Oswald Mosley. Instead, Blue became interested in Marxism.

One of the most respected religious figures in the Jewnited Kingdumb is a homosexual rabbi? Pathetic, but hadly surprising.

Lionel Blue. "Trust me, goyim."

Guardian apologizes for cartoon of outgoing BBC chair criticized as antisemitic

(JTA) — The Guardian deleted and apologized for a cartoon of outgoing BBC Chairman Richard Sharp widely criticized for channeling multiple antisemitic tropes.

The Board of Deputies of British Jews has requested a meeting with the Guardian’s editor over the cartoon. Meanwhile, the cartoonist, Martin Rowson, issued a lengthy statement in which he said, “The cartoon was a failure and on many levels: I offended the wrong people.”

On Friday, Sharp, a former banker who is Jewish, announced he was resigning in the wake of a scandal after just over two years in his BBC role. Rowson, a prominent political cartoonist, drew a dark caricature of Sharp holding a box with the label of Goldman Sachs, his former employer. Inside the box were a squid and a head with an elongated nose.

To many who viewed it, the imagery offered echoes of historical antisemitic caricatures, including those published by the Nazis, as well as references to contemporary antisemitic tropes.

Huw Edwards’ wife identifies him as BBC presenter accused of sexual misconduct. Police say no evidence he committed any crime


BYBRIAN MELLEY AND THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
July 12, 2023 at 11:48 PM GMT+2

There’s no evidence a BBC presenter who allegedly paid a teenager for sexually explicit photos committed a crime, London police said Wednesday as the broadcaster’s wife publicly identified him for the first time as veteran news anchor Huw Edwards.

Metropolitan police decided to take no further action after speaking with the alleged victim and that person’s parents. The parents told The Sun newspaper last week that the presenter had been allowed to remain on air after the mother complained to the BBC in May that he paid the youth 35,000 pounds ($45,000) starting in 2020 when the person was 17.

Huw Edwards, the BBC and the sex scandal engulfing Britain


By Karl Quinn
July 13, 2023 — 12.42pm

(...) On July 7, Murdoch-owned News Corp tabloid The Sun reported that a woman had complained to the BBC that one of its presenters had paid her child, aged 20, for explicit images, and that her child had used the Ł35,000 – paid over a number of years – to fund their addiction to crack cocaine. The contact with Edwards had begun, she alleged, when her child was just 17. She claimed she had first contacted police in Wales about the matter in April, and the BBC in May.

BBC slammed for mistranslating Arabic interview of released Palestinian prisoner


Updated 27 November 2023

LONDON: The BBC has come under fire for mistranslating the words of a Palestinian prisoner following the her exchange as part of a hostage release deal between Isreal and Hamas on Friday.

Respond Crisis Translation stated that the former detainee criticized her Israeli captors in her initial statement, condemning them for their inhumane treatment of prisoners.

“They imprisoned us for a month. As winter came, they cut off the electricity. We almost died from the cold weather,” was translated to English subtitles as “and no one helped us. Only Hamas cared. Those who felt our suffering, I thank them very much.”

The former detainee proceeded to mention, “they (the Israelis) sprayed us with pepper spray and left us to die inside the prison,” but the English subtitles were interpreted as “and we love them very much,” potentially implying that her emotions were aimed at Hamas.

“The shortened video clip we posted included English subtitles, but due to an editing error did not include the full comments themselves. We have since uploaded the original video clip, so that it includes the full comments with corresponding translation, and added a note of clarification,” a BBC spokesperson told Arab News.

BBC News presenter Maryam Moshiri apologizes after flipping the middle finger live on air


BY CAITLIN O'KANE
DECEMBER 7, 2023 / 12:57 PM EST / CBS NEWS

A BBC News presenter has apologized after flipping the middle finger live on air on Wednesday. Maryam Moshiri, the chief presenter at the British network, said she was "joking around a bit with the team" when she stuck up her middle finger just as the broadcast went to air.

A clip of Moshiri making the gesture was shared by several people on social media, with one video getting more than 700,000 views. The clip shows the countdown to the broadcast and Moshiri at the anchor desk. She quickly makes the gesture and then goes into delivering the first headline about former Prime Minister Boris Johnson.

In a post Thursday on X, Moshiri said she was pretending to count down as the director counted down from 10. She held up 10 fingers and counted down on them. When the countdown reached one, she turned her middle finger around "as a joke and did not realise that this would be caught on camera."

"It was a private joke with the team and I'm so sorry it went out on air! It was not my intention for this to happen and I'm sorry if I offended or upset anyone," she wrote. "I wasn't 'flipping the bird' at viewers or even a person really. It was a silly joke that was meant for a small number of my mates." She included a "face palm" emoji, often used in embarrassment or exasperation.

BBC teams up with jew-controlled Disney to spread pro-negro, race-mixing propaganda to white people:

'Doctor Who' Christmas Special Sparks Racist Backlash


Dec 26, 2023 at 6:48 AM EST
By Billie Schwab Dunn
Pop Culture and Entertainment Reporter

After months of waiting, fans of Doctor Who finally witnessed Ncuti Gatwa's full debut as the show's eponymous Time Lord in a fun-filled Christmas Special—but not everyone is happy, with some viewers voicing strong opinions about the new iteration's race.

The long-running British science-fiction series sees the Doctor, a mysterious 2,000-year-old time-traveler, and his companions journey across time and space in a ship known as the TARDIS. Every few years the doctor regenerates, which is a biological ability of the Time Lords, a race of fictional humanoids originating on the planet Gallifrey. This allows a new actor to take on the titular character without the show having to end.

Gatwa, known for his roles in Sex Education and Barbie, is the 15th Doctor in the new series that has seen a reported Ł100-million cash injection from Disney. While the British show has been running on the BBC for 60 years, it is now also streaming on Disney+ outside of the U.K., with Disney now a co-producer. Much-loved writer Russell T. Davies is also back running the show, so fans have had high expectations.

The holiday special featured the return of this new incarnation of the famous traveler facing up against a horde of goblins that want to harm Ruby Sunday (Millie Gibson), an orphan on a mission to learn the truth about her past.

Gatwa—who takes his historic place as the first Black man to assume the role, and who also happens to be gay—has been praised for his performance by fans, but he has also faced unsurprising backlash.

When a new actor is announced to play the Doctor, they are accustomed to criticism. This is because the show has a passionate fanbase, with every fan having a favorite incarnation of the main character.

While most people quickly learn to love the new actor as soon as they watch a Doctor's debut episode, this year there have been racist and homophobic trolls crawling out of the woodwork. Some have taken to X, formerly Twitter, to criticize the BBC show for becoming "woke propaganda." Others have lambasted Disney, accusing the show of now having the same "woke" issues of other recent Disney projects.
