    Lovely day. And I can get out on the garden even earlier.

    Popped on SKY to get up to speed, and ended up in some women’s coffee morning.

    Decided to risk Marr, if only to see what he and his chosen guests might ignore in favour of what they fancy focussing on, only to find every channel wall to wall ‘sport’, which I prefer to play rather than watch.

    Eventually landed on News 24, with some gobby ‘comedienne’ I had never heard of shouting down everyone with her political expertise.

    A media estate fit only for common purpose.

    The logs beckon. I have a focus in mind for that axe swing.

    Today is the 27th anniversary of the murder of WPC Yvonne Fletcher.

    A search on the BBC website suggests that the significance of today’s date may have passed the BBC by.

    Let us also not forget Lockerbie.  If we can topple Gaddafi without Islamists taking over in Libya, I see no reason why we shouldn’t do so.

    BBC-Guardianistas on Castro dictatorship in CUBA.

    BBC-Guardianistas gives it a free pass.

    For over 50 years the Castros have ruled Cuba; and now Comrade Raul says, without critical comment from BBC-Guardianistas:

    From BBC-Guardianista Mr Voss –

    “Cuban President Raul Castro has said top political positions should be limited to two five-year terms, and promised ‘systematic rejuvenation’ of the government.”

    Now Raul Castro tells us!

    And Mr. Voss suggests that, like INBBC, the Castros are being inspired by Islamic uprisings (being politically guided by the Muslim Brotherhood) in the Arab world.

     Guardianista  Voss again:

    ..”I think they have seen what has been happening around the Arab world and are thinking it is best to be pro-active.” (after 50 years.)

      The BBC have had a love affair with Cuba and its gangster rulers for years now.
      Always willing and eager to pimp the latest great news form the seat of all things wonderful, lets celebrate the revolution.
      What the BBC are not so keen on explaining is the lack of elections free or otherwise, what the BBC somehow forgets to mention about the workers paradise is the simple and stark fact that IF the Cuban people were allowed ONE free election just ONE free and fair election then the Castro brothers and their gangster friends would be HISTORY, voted out quicker than boiled asparagus.

      The land of refom, everyones a winner, all the people they love me, all the people are with me says Castro, or was that gadaffi? Anyhoo meanhile back at the ranch, or concentration camp if you are unlucky enough to be an ordinary Cuban who runs foul of the regimes in crowd gangsters.

      The BBC prattle on about how wonderful it is that poverty sricken Cubans are allowed to farm a pitiful cricket pitch size bit of land IF they have the regime contacts for fuel or farming tools or that some regime gangsters can now get online while ignoring the central fact about Cuba, those gangsters rule by the AK47, it is brute force that keeps them in power alone.

      ONE FREE ELECTION?

    BBC, it’s instinctively republican (not in the American sense), and we just know that the impending Royal Wedding and the possible coming together of the British nation in celebration has them sick to their stomachs.

    So (given that they reject and abhore the hereditary principle) BBC fall back on doing all they can to push this odd debate about male primogeniture.

    I find it best to take a jazz hands approach to the Beebs output at times like these.

    Easter coming up,bluebell woods and tea shops to be cycled to…all I do is dip into BBC output,wait until the first secular slime gobbet is cast(rarely takes too long!) then I know they are a busted flushand turn it off

    Hippepooter quotes Isaiah-in my study today in 2 Chronicles today(18 or so-all a bit dull so I get confused in this bit)…I read of Libya and Ethiopia at war with the Israelites back then-so don`t really see the need for a Bowen to show his lazy prejudices. That Patten approves ought to finish his career,but not in BeebWorld. Jonathan Sacks is all we need at the minute!

    Todays awful smug B.H (as if anyone would know of it in this acronym-sheer Sunday morning filler!) at least had the wonderful Anne Leslie.Unfortunately she was sandwiched by two Beeboids in the arts who think that a Christian should NOT have a cross in his van-not even at Easter( Bet they`ll not be working next weekend though,the hypocrites!

    And on to the Godawful )Desert Island Discs-but wait!

    Terry Gilliam wants a big book to hide a pistol so he can shoot himself as one of the things he`ll be taking. Our Kirsty does NOT like that at all-despite her employers being the cheerleaders for euthanasia(or assisted dying as we will be made to call it!).

    Such is the mass of schizoid contradictions and hypocrisies that OUR BBC disgorges to us on random sampling-thank God for “More or Less” that at least educates me once in a while!

    Time to watch the BBC very carefully. 2 Palestinian youths have been arrested for the Itamar massacre.
    http://www.google.com/hostednews/afp/article/ALeqM5i1PdV71jU4Iv9YDeD2R3dxp-XcKw?docId=CNG.03c0e67179e2f7de4a72d4d699c0b830.331
    All the main Israeli news sites are reporting it, as are major news channels like CNN and MSNBC.

    The BBC covered themselves in shame over their initial reporting –  as many of you here helped show. If they ignore this latest development it will be truly unforgivable.

      The Jerusalem Post says the killers “are affiliated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PLFP) terror group, and received significant assistance from family members and friends after the attack, security forces added.”

      As for the murderers “sparing” the two other sleeping Fogel children, as that notorious BBC article put it, “According to Israel Radio, Amjad (one of the killers) said that he was unaware that there were two other children in the house, and that if he knew, he would have stabbed them as well.”

        I still think the revolutionary peoples popular democratic front for the liberation of ‘Palestine'(PPDFLP) could have had a hand in it or am I mistaking them for the ‘Palestinian’ democratic popular peoples liberation struggle front(PDPLSF)?

    Not too bad actually, IMHO.

    Ecept for the usual last sentences.
    “There are almost 500,000 settlers living on occupied Palestinian land !!!!!in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. Settlements are……. although Israel……”

    So even though the killings were “brutal” they still asked for it.

      Is this the first time the BBC has issued the details of the murdered Fogel family?
      The report is reasonable, but I wish they’d checked the gender of the baby who was stabbed to death by these teenage heroes.
      Hadas is a girl’s name. It means myrtle tree / flower.

      Yes. it’s better than expected. The BBC finally treats the Fogels as human beings. The use of a photograph of Elad is particularly welcome. Not good getting the sex of Hadas wrong though. Hope it’s just sensitivity on the BBC’s part that the worst details of the murders are still being sanitised. The statement by one of the killers that if he’d seen Roi and Yishai he’d have murdered them too is airbrushed out of the story and the report still pushes the line that “the murders were condemned by Palestinian leaders”, failing to mention Hamas’s praise for the killings and the Palestinian celebrations. Still, it’s a step forward. Possibly as a result of Louise Bagshawe:

      I got the sense in reading the changed tone of the reporting it was written with the sense that the world is watching.  No mention of the celebrations in Gaza though.  And the usual sick end to the reporting that strongly implies what you say.

    I wonder if Richard Black – a “journalist” on climate matters at the BBC – will report the complete crapola of the 50 million “climate refugees” predicted in 2000 by UNEP for 2010.  This claim – not just its failure but the failed attempt to move the prediction goalposts (“sorry, we meant 2020”) – is exposed by Anthony Watts here http://wattsupwiththat.com/2011/04/15/the-un-disappears-50-million-climate-refugees-then-botches-the-disappearing-attempt/#more-38006   What’s the betting that Black, despite his BBC genetic disposition to “impartiality”, will nevertheless let his devotion to crap partisan journalism triumph and stay silent on this one?

    A nationalist party in Finland, ‘True Finns’ has secured a large share of the vote.  I know absolutely nothing about them, whether they’re bad ‘uns or not.  If they’re anything like the BNP they are most definitely beyond the pale.  Maybe BBC Online can enlighten me?   BBC Online turns to Jan Sundberg, Professor of Political Science at Helsinki University, to explain.

    Halfway through he tells us this:-

    Parties tend to follow popular trends among the electorate, even if they have an authoritarian streak. That is a general weakness of democracy.

    The right-wing populist Danish People’s Party is not a strong actor in Danish politics, but its xenophobia has spread to the major parties

    Only a Marxist twat of the highest order could equate people’s natural desire to retain a sense of national identity with hatred of foreigners.

    The weakness of democracy Professor is that we allow people like you and your friends at the BBC to stymie the popular will of the people by abusing your positions to convince the people that those who respond to their will are bigots.  That is why in 2002, as much as the public wanted action against bogus asylum seekers, they didn’t vote for Hague because the BBC convinced them he was racist for wanting to take action against bogus asylum seekers.

      Not a mistake Hippie but a very deliberate and well planned political strategy and one that has worked perfectly. In the new world order we are not to be allowed a nation of our own, this has been decided by others on our behalf.

      Any nationalist movement will be crushed with the utmost vigour and determination. It is a vital element of the deconstruction of the sovereign UK that any nationalist party is to be smeared and destroyed by the state and the establishment using all the tools at its disposal.

      Good spot!

      I heard that hypcrite universal Shami waffling on about NOTHING and yet this rich two faced ‘freedom fighter’ gets full on airtime.
      The police tactic of kettling is successful tactic to control violent street rabble thugs, no wonder the rabble rousers wish to see the tactic banned and this is where the BBC comes in.

      Get this: Unisham compares the British police with Arab police, credit where credit is due she whines and then goes on to criticise the police for only THINKING about kettling…geddit? Dare to even contemplate kettling and the police would lose the ‘trust’ of the violent mob. The PC police invite Unisham to monitor their actions and she has the brass neck to have a go at them for something they didnt do.

      What we didnt hear of course is, did Unisham have operational control of the police or did she exericise any influence and did the police knowing they had Unisham looking over their shoulder fail to do their job of protecting property and controlling the violent thug rabble?

      So there you have it, after a very short period of shamed and humiliated universal rich hypocrite keeping her head down she is rehabilitated by the BBC who are always ready and willing to provide the media platform these nasty little spiteful money grubbing ambulance chasing gits need so much.

    Liberty has a very grubby history-which some may not be aware of……

    http://www.no2abuse.com/index.php/news/comments/labour-figures-bizarre-link-to-paedophile-groups/

    Harriet Harman was the legal officer in the late 1970s for the National Council for Civil Liberties. When Miss Harman joined NCCL in 1978, PIE, the Paedophile Information Exchange, had already been affiliated for three years

    Immediate 22.00hrs Wednesday 20th June 2007 
    Their involvement with an organisation to which two groups campaigning for the legalisation of paedophilia were affiliated has come back to challenge three leading Labour Party figures. 
    Before she became an MP, Harriet Harman was the legal officer in the late 1970s for the National Council for Civil Liberties. When Miss Harman joined NCCL in 1978, PIE, the Paedophile Information Exchange, had already been affiliated for three years. Another group, Paedophile Action for Liberation, a Gay Liberation Front offshoot, had also been affiliated to NCCL until it was absorbed by PIE. PIE, which campaigned for adults to have sex legally with children, only broke off its relationship with NCCL when it went undercover in 1982, the same year that Harriet Harman left her NCCL post to become Member of Parliament for Peckham. 
    NCCL people were earlier involved in keeping the name of an NCCL council-member, Jonathan Walters, out of the People newspaper when it ran an exposé of Paedophile Action for Liberation, of which he was secretary, in 1975. The People still ran the story, but Walters was not named. 
    Even more extraordinary is the fact that a current Cabinet Minister was running the National Council of Civil Liberties at the time all this was going on. 
    The Rt Hon Patricia Hewitt MP, Secretary of State for Health, became General Secretary of NCCL in 1974. The very next year, 1975, NCCL invited the Paedophile Information Exchange and Paedophile Action for Liberation to affiliate. In the year after, 1976, the now-notorious paedophile Tom O’Carroll was invited to address the NCCL conference, which promptly voted to ‘deplore’ the use of chemical castration treatments for paedophiles.

      Also in 1975, Patricia Hewitt joined the Campaign for Homosexual Equality, as a ‘straight’, in the same year that Keith Hose of the Paedophile Information Exchange addressed its second annual conference. Hose moved a motion of censure on the conference organising committee for ‘relegating paedophilia to ancillary status in conference.’ The motion was seconded by Trevor Locke, who just happened to be a member of the Executive Council of the NCCL. ‘An awareness and acceptance of the sexuality of children is an essential part of the liberation of the young homosexual,’ the motion went on. It was duly passed. 
      Jack Dromey, whom Harriet Harman married in 1982, and who is now Treasurer of the Labour Party, was also involved with the NCCL. He served on its Executive Committee from 1970 to 1979, so he was there when the decision to invite the two paedophile groups to affiliate was made. NCCL also set up a gay rights sub-committee at the same time, members of which included prominent paedophiles Peter Bremner (alias Roger Nash), Michael Burbidge, Keith Hose and Tom O’Carroll. And of course Walters and Locke were on the Executive. 
      Stephen Green, National Director of Christian Voice, commented: ‘It is timely that the ghosts of the 1970’s past should come back to haunt these three leading Labour Party politicians. Harriet Harman, Jack Dromey and Patricia Hewitt were in their mid- or late-twenties at the time, but that cannot really excuse the way NCCL came to regard paedophiles as an oppressed minority whose civil liberties needed to be fought for. 
      ‘All three of them really need to explain why they were so friendly toward so many out campaigning homosexual paedophiles in their youth. Why did they allow the NCCL gay rights sub-committee to be stuffed with them? Why were they happy to work with paedophilia supporters on the NCCL Executive? It cannot have been sympathy with child-molestation, so was it a complete lack of judgment or was it moral cowardice? 
      ‘NCCL has now been rebranded as ‘Liberty’

       

      also-and allegedly-

      she wanted the Police to have to prove the child was injured during the taking of the photo’s for it to be illegal. So kiddie porn was to be OK as long as the kid wasn’t injured.
