   First par, Ms Bridegam, first par:   
      
   Again, until recently, anyone who questioned, however gently,   
   multiculturalism or mass immigration was treated like a piece of dirt -   
   effectively enabling the BBC to all but close down debate on the biggest   
   demographic change to this island in its history.   
      
   'No, what really disturbs me is that the BBC is, in every corpuscle of its   
   corporate body, against the values of conservatism, with a small "c", which,   
   I would argue, just happens to be the values held by millions of Britons.   
   Thus it exercises a kind of "cultural Marxism" in which it tries to   
   undermine that conservative society by turning all its values on their   
   heads.   
      
   Of course, there is the odd dissenting voice, but by and large BBC   
   journalism starts from the premise of leftwing ideology: it is hostile to   
   conservatism and the traditional right, Britain's past and British values,   
   America, Ulster unionism, Euroscepticism, capitalism and big business, the   
   countryside, Christianity and family values. Conversely, it is sympathetic   
   to Labour, European federalism, the state and state spending, mass   
   immigration, minority rights, multiculturalism, alternative lifestyles,   
   abortion, and progressiveness in the education and the justice systems.   
      
   Now you may sympathise with all or some of these views. I may even   
   sympathise with some of them. But what on earth gives the BBC the right to   
   assume they are the only values of any merit?   
      
   Over Europe, for instance, the BBC has always treated anyone who doesn't   
   share its federalism - which just happens to be the great majority of the   
   British population - as if they were demented xenophobes. In very telling   
   words, the ex-cabinet secretary Lord Wilson blamed the BBC's "institutional   
   mindset" over Europe on a "homogenous professional recruitment base" and "a   
   dislike for conservative ideas".   
      
   --   
      
   And in the comments:   
      
   I once worked for the BBC, and a bigger concentration of foaming at the   
   mouth Dave Spart lefties is impossible to find. It really is no surprise   
   that George Orwell based his Ministry of Truth on the BBC.   
   The BBC has an essential Bolshevik attitude - as a collective body it has no   
   problem in imposing its unwelcome will upon the very people who are forced   
   to pay for state propaganda and misinformation under the very real threat of   
   jail.   
   The BBC did not get the way it is by accident. The tenets of Antonio Gramsci   
   have been ruthlessly applied by the apparatchiks who control the bloated lie   
   machine.
