TOT (BBC bias) compare and contrast

Compare the alacrity with which the BBC carried this
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-26333729
(Tory might possibly have hidden assets of mum-in-law to reduce care
costs) compared with their tardiness in covering the NCCL/PIE story
(Senior Labour Party people have made serious errors of judgement).

However hindsight is a wonderful thing no matter which side of the political
line you are unfortunately.

Could be because this is a current story and not a 40 year old one
resurrected for who knows what reason.

btw Bill did you mean to x-post to two groups?

ITYM compare the news value of an MP who might be guilty of fraud with
that of a storm in a teacup, stirred up by the Daily Mail.

Very, very good.

So you're saying that we shouldn't be judging what was done in
f'rinstance the NCCL in the 70s by today's standards?...

No. I am saying that PIE (and I would be surprised if they used their
full title very often) targeted many civil rights groups in an attempt
to gain some legitimacy for their organisation. The fact that somebody
who is now a senior politician supported civil liberties and was a
member of one of those organisations is not in the least relevant.

You are beyond reasoning with so sometimes you just have to say, "stop
being a ****."
