As 2018 comes to an end, we take a look back at our most read articles this year here at Dorset Eye. From nature to politics to the media… they reflect the diversity of the readership and more importantly to those who submit to be published.
Thank you yo them and wishing everyone everywhere a Happy New Year!
No 10. Erm Hold On BBC. Something You Aren’t Telling Us
The BBC‘s Victoria Derbyshire programme recently hosted a 15 minute slot in which a couple called Mark Lewis and Mandy Blumenthal were brought on to claim that Labour has produced such an atmosphere of threatening antisemitism in Britain that they are forced to leave for Israel.
No 9. Theresa May Refuses to be Interviewed by Channel 4 News
Public service broadcasting depends upon access to the Prime Minister. What we are seeing is a very weak Prime Minister picking and choosing as she knows that those that cannot be controlled will embarrass her and reveal her vulnerabilities.
No 8. ‘Bully Boy’ Marr Loses It
Andrew Marr loses his shit and reveals himself as another BBC bully boy. Shameful.
N0 7. Who is Funding Tom Watson?
‘So you can find out who donates cash to Tom Watson MP by searching in the electoral commission’s database. It’s true what they say about following the money. The vast majority of regular donations that he receives are from Sir Trevor Chinn who represents the Jewish Leadership Council (previously known as the Jewish Community Leadership Council).
No 6. Dear Margaret
The response below was to Margaret Hodge’s post on her Facebook page. She posted photos of the letter she had received from the Labour Party regarding the disciplinary action being taken against her. Margaret claims she doesn’t know what she is being accused of.
No 5. Corbyn does not say ‘stupid woman’ and gets trounced by corporate media. Tory says ‘bitch’…. Well you know the rest
Funny how Tories seem so concerned now about whether or not Corbyn said “stupid woman” as they were silent when Tory David Mundell was accused of calling Yvette Cooper a “b*tch”.
No 4. Hello Luciana
Hello Luciana. You have my absolute solidarity and support re: the disgusting abuse you’re received and documented. It’s vile and unconscionable. Beyond that, however, here’s what I think.
No 3. R.I.P to all of the victims of this government
Just some of the many who have been found to have died as an indirect or direct result of the policies of the Department of Work and Pensions. Please remember them next time you vote.
No 2. You need to read the letter from Corb’s lawyers to Ben BRADLEY Tory MP
Seriously, you need to read the letter from Corb’s lawyers to Ben BRADLEY Tory MP. He thought that just by deleting the tweet (as soon as he was told to by Corbyn’s lawyers) he had got away with it, but oh no indeedy. Oh no, no, no, no, no. No. Corbyn’s lawyers have written to him telling him exactly what he needs to do if he wants to escape Libel.
No 1. PLEASE DON’T LEAVE DISHES OF SUGAR WATER OUT
Oh dear – I keep hearing tips about leaving bowls of sugar water out to “help” keep bees hydrated. Please, please, please DON’T. Bees are really good at finding what they need and there are so many reasons not to do this.
