Enraged by the BBC’s bias against them, supporters of the Jihad Flotilla storm the BBC offices in Manchester.

One man climbed to the top of the building to plant a Palestinian flag and there were at least three arrests.
Protesters said they were also angry about the BBC’s coverage of Israel.

Talat Ali, 40, organizer from the Palestine Solidarity Campaign said: “This is a peaceful demonstration against the attack that has taken place on the Gaza flotilla.
“We are not happy with the way commanders boarded vessels and butchered people.
“We are not happy with the biased news given by the BBC.”…
More groveling, Beeb! Now!
