AIBU to think that the BBC could be pushing us into another recession?

How can the BBC read the future? Why don't they say that some jobs will be lost but some will be gained? Spreading negativity helps no-one.

Are you talking about the news? or cbeebies?

LOL PP

I dont know. What do sky & itv news have to say on the matter?

It's not the BBC pushing us into a recession - its the coalition government who are successfully doing that.

The BBC are just sore that they are getting a funding cut too...

I expect this means we will get the same cbeebies seasons songs for the next 10 years now

YANBU. Every time they say that the estimates are for 500k public sector job losses, they should explain it.

They should mention that the vast, vast majority will go through natural churn and voluntary redundancy. That the 500000 is spread over 4 years. And that the estimate from the same independent body is that 1.3 million private sector jobs will be created in the same time frame.

I like the cbeebies seasons songs.
Change for changes sake is just capitalism gone mad.

Learning from the past in order to predict future events is an important skill for homo sapiens.

I think there is a market for a newspaper that only prints good news stories or stories that have had a positive spin put on them, rather than the dreary, depressing rubbish that fills the newsagents shelves at the moment.
