Usual BBC selected audience - 90% made up of Labour party members, trade union activists, fellow travellers and other carefully chosen blinkered and biased puppets. Any questions on R4 with Dimblebys brother has the same type of rabble making up the majority of its audience.

This is a totally ridiculous accusation!

I'd like to see your evidence to back this up?

The political sway of the audience on Question Time is governed by the leanings of the area where the episode is filmed, the BBC has admitted.
Director-general Mark Thompson has revealed that the audience is selected to reflect the voter make-up in the region from which each edition of the topical debate show is broadcast – rather than the political landscape of Britain as a whole.
Question Time, hosted by David Dimbleby, is broadcast each week from a different part of the country and watched by an average of 2.6 million viewers.

The BBC has again been accused of political bias by ensuring Question Time has audiences ‘hostile’ to government cuts.
This week’s show was broadcast from the Labour stronghold of Middlesbrough, where 43 per cent of the workforce is employed in the public sector.
Many viewers were shocked at how much hostility was heaped on Philip Hammond, the Transport Secretary, during the show.

Next week the debate will be held in the Tory-free zone of Glasgow, while the following week it is due in Sheffield, where fury has raged since the election that an £80million government loan for a local steel plant, Sheffield Forgemasters, was cancelled by the Coalition.

During Thursday’s debate, Mr Hammond was met with a wall of opposition every time he tried to explain why the Government had to rein in the country’s burgeoning deficit.

One observer told the Mail that he was shocked at the level of hostility towards the government.
‘They are taking some tough decisions on the deficit but the level of attack from the audience was off the scale.

Transport Secretary Philip Hammond was given a hard time on this week's Question Time in Middlesbrough
'At one point he urged people not to talk the North East down, and even that was met with a roar from the crowd.’
In contrast, Green MP, Caroline Lucas, received rapturous applause every time she suggested the Government should scrap its plans for cuts.
After the audience grilling, a BBC producer was overheard telling Sir Richard Dannatt, a panellist and the former head of the Army, that the show was held in Middlesbrough because the audience would be the most hostile to the cuts.
A Conservative source said: ‘Now, more than ever, is the time for the BBC to be careful and frame the debate responsibly so that the facts are properly heard. The spending review is a serious topic for all of us, it needs to be treated as such.’
The BBC has faced frequent claims of Left-wing bias. Unions recently called two strikes designed to black out coverage of the Tory conference and Mr Osborne’s spending review speech.
But they were called off following protests from a string of political journalists that the walk-outs would wreck the corporation’s claim to be ‘impartial’.
A BBC spokesman said: ‘The Question Time audience holds politicians from all sides to account.’

Question Time “Paranoid” at Unpredictable Audience Tonight

The Question Time audience is often derided for being out of touch with mainstream public opinion and clapping contradictory arguments, but sometimes they cross the line. Back in 2001, just four days after the attacks on the Pentagon and the Twin Towers, the BBC was hit by one mighty PR disaster when their carefully selected, and oh so balanced, audience almost reduced a former US Ambassador to tears by repeatedly blaming America for the attacks, while the ruins were still smouldering. Director General Greg Dyke said at the time:

“…despite the best efforts of David Dimbleby and the panel, there were times in the programme when the tone was not appropriate, given the terrible events of this week. I have today spoken to Phillip Lader, the former US Ambassador to the UK who was on the panel, and apologised for any distress the programme may have caused him.”

Well we are ten years on and Guido hears that the BBC’s paranoia around tonight’s anniversary episode is intense. Producers are said to be particularly worried about the audience reaction to Reagan and Bush defence advisor, and the spiritual godfather of neo-conservatism, Richard Perle. Insiders say the audience has been “softened”. The programme’s production-company Mentorn declined to comment when Guido put it to them that there had been a significant re-jigging of audience members today…

Enough evidence there to sink a battleship

2 programmes (Any Questions and Question Time) that clearly illustrate the BBC's left wing bias - they can be broadcast from the Tory Heartlands and the audience will still be stuffed full of the leftist rent a mob. If you recall there was a young tart on one from Eastleigh some months ago giving one of the panel some foul personal abuse and it turned out she was a full time Labour worker - the BBC maintain they don't issue tickets to members of political parties

Yes we remember that cow alright,totally agree with you Dedworth
Just drove up to Edinburgh the other day and on the Scottish/English border noticed as soon as I enter Scotland flags appear!
Nothing the other way round as I came back-Maybe we can,t offend anyone

[joebloggs]

I wholeheartedly agree Ded .............Glad I'm not the only who's noticed it

Well worth the rep I just sent

gWaPito, you must have had an invite being a Union member ?
the only one biased are you and dedworth, tell me again that what Hasan said wan't true

[joebloggs]

i would have thought you just apply for a ticket to go in the Audience, what do you want them to do fill in a questionnaire ? and how do you decide the percentages of the different view's?,,

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/programme...me/1858613.stm


i see they try and get a balanced view , maybe there are no Tories, or they don't apply , or they are Tories but like i said people know when they hear common sense

come to Salford or greater Manchester the beeb would have trouble finding a few Tory supporters , what should they do import them from the South

i wonder if they import labour supporters when they film it in the posh areas' of the UK

Quite the opposite! Dedworth's post and links are full of rhetoric, opinion and waffle, but very few facts.

"Usual BBC selected audience - 90% made up of Labour party members, trade union activists, fellow travellers and other carefully chosen blinkered and biased puppets" was his statement.

There's nothing in his post to back this up. Where is the 90% figure from?

[Dedworth]

The 90% was my carefully considered estimate of Question Times audience make up.

It should be good tomorrow (10/10/2013) the vile and bitter Diane Abbott will be pocketing yet another fat appearance fee

[grahamw48]

I can't bear to watch it anymore. My TV was too expensive.

Joe. ...Ded has already explained the BBC pick anti Conservative stranglehold constitutes for their anti Conservative programmes.

[bigmarco]

I'll give it a miss as well because as well as Fat Abbott it has the equally nauseating Adam Afriyie who some say could be the first black leader of the Tory Party although I wouldn't imagine this goes down well with the owners of The Daily Mail

[gWaPito]

That's good enough for me, Ded

Bring it up to blinkin Yorkshire. We'll give em some opinions !

maybe thats 90% of the audience with a bit of common sense
