    In my opinion that depends upon where you are standing. If you are to the right then the bias can appear to be to the left. However should you be stood on the left the bias can appear to the right, it is a matter of perspective. In an ideal world the media should be accused of bias by everybody except that single person who is actually in the middle.

    Left/right what ever your persuasion that is a personal choice.....I was merely quoting a piece by the media bias org, who ranked just security at left of centre :emoticon-0148-yes:

    It's a good job we don't all think the same isn't it. Best to read the story and make up your own mind rather than let somebody decide what you should believe for you. But if you want to go down that route Allsides reckon its in the centre (center sic)

    The truth you say? I doubt you'll want to watch all of this but if you skip to 4:30 you will see/hear Biden actually say that he will not sell arms to the Saudis during the election campaign. He used the exact words.
    Because he actually said it I say he lied.

    The senile old kid sniffer has lied consistently throughout his short tenure has president thats why his popularity has plummeted in the polls, what he said in his campaign promises and what he actually does are two different things, he has got to be the worst Potus ever.

    I thnk the biggest concern for everyone, not only Americans, is that he's obviously not making the decisions. He's a puppet and we don't really know who is pulling the strings. He obviously reads everything from a script and doesn't take questions.
    Like him or loathe him, Trump made his own decisions, answered questions and didn't care if he ruffled feathers. That is why there was such a huge campaign to get rid of him.

    The real joke is that people think the Democrats are left wing.

    I remember many, many years ago talking to a mate in the pub. The subject turned to American politics and my mate said "Basically they have a very similar situation to here, with two main parties. The Democrats are like the Tories and the Republicans are like the ****ing nazi party !"
