        Also her job in a lingerie boutique would be offensive to the misogynists from one of the world’s great faiths.

        Also there’s no BBC tv report that I can find on Britain’s most famous political prisoner. Strange considering how interested they usually are in him.

    Confusing because there are 2 versions of this story on the BBC website. One doesn’t mention the Hijab while the other does. The version mentioning the Hijab is currently in the BBC’s most viewed list. There’s a link to this version at the bottom of the non Hijab version. Anyway here’s a link to the Hijab version:

      The second version was published 24 hours later. They withheld the truth until they realised that the rest of the media were actually going to report this properly which left them as the only people engaging in censorship.

      The story was on the front page of Reddit yesterday, so a great many Americans got to know what was going on well before any BBC viewer did.

      It wasn’t a hijab, it was an Islamic full-face covering such as NIQAB or a BURQA.

      All such intimidating garbs should be banned in Britain as the severe security threats they are, as France has done.

      France, etc., ban burqa:-

      i am really confused now…

      in the opening paragraphs they refer to a woman wearing “a veil”. l presume this indicates the attacker was possibly a Christian woman , wearing a traditional indigenous Anglo Saxon item of clothing worn at weddings or funerals.

      later they kindly quote the victim and helpfully pick up on the fact that she may not know everything that there is to know about the fucking hiqab , niqab, burqa or whatever the fcuk (sic) it is called.

      thanks to the wonderful Al BEEB journalists am now being asked to make assumptions that the victim is (a) not very educated as she doesn’t know whether the acid attacker wore a fucking hiqab , niqab, burqa or whatever the fcuk (sic) it is called and (b) the only objective reference to the facial covering of the attacker is that she was wearing ” a veil”.

      fuck me . these bbc journalists are so fucking twisted they have to screw their trousers on in the morning.

      I’d say this headline is pretty dire in its own right in reflecting the actual story…
      ‘Naomi Oni, Dagenham acid attack victim, ‘wanted to die’
      Besides side-stepping the main story point like Hugs on gardening leave, it almost reads like the acid attacker was on call as a service delivery operative for the UK sadist branch of Dignitas.
      The BBC really has a lot of questions it won’t answer on this one.
      I might well actually run a few concerns by them as the online evidence is now captured and compounding.

        It is pretty scandalous to feed pork to Muslims,though no worse than the scandal of allowing animal abuse through halal slaughter.

        Muslims will only eat meat butchered causing huge suffering to animals and this should be illegal. Therefore in any civilised country, all Muslims would effectively be forced to become vegetarians due to their sick practices being illegal There would be no story here because no Muslims would be eating any type of meat in the first place.

      Ah yes, it all makes perfect lefty sense now. “demonstrate the religion of peace by throwing acid in a black girl’s face” not quite as catchy as NOT IN MY NAME but probably more honest. She was after all indistinguishable from a middle aged white war monger in the eyes of a politically conscious burqa wearer. And let’s not forget, Muslims are the real victims of these type of attacks, as the media all agrees, and what with Muslims being poisoned by infidel pig meat in their food (no doubt a Zionist plot) it is surprising that more of this does not take place.

      I would be happy for us to get out of Muslim lands – if they get out of ours.

    One can only imagine what must have been the thoughts of the editor at the BBC who first decided to omit any reference to Niqab as the outfit worn by the attacker, regardless of whether they were Muslim or not, as the victim stated, or even if it was really a woman.

    The lunacy of this decision beggars belief.

    Most every article I’ve seen on this story gives the police phone numbers for anybody who can help with their enquiries. If somebody would have seen a person wearing a Niqab at that time of night in that area, they certainly wouldn’t have associated this from the BBC article.

    If somebody else is walking the streets at night in a nearby area and sees a person in a Niqab approaching them, they might decide to avoid passing nearby if they knew of this connection. But if they relied on the BBC for their news they might well become another victim.

    But for the BBC, the disfigurement of an innocent woman is not their priority. They see their duty is more to protect the image of the ‘religion of peace’, regardless whether a Muslim was actually involved or not. The Niqab certainly makes a good item of clothing to conceal oneself, and whether it should be banned or not could be a debate for government to take up. The BBC however would prefer to look the other way.

    Absolutely disgraceful, and there is NO DEFENCE for this.

    It’s possible K9 is a naive leftie but it’s more likely he’s a piece of lying vermin. There is group, of indeterminate size in East London, who are attempting to impose sharia on the rest of the population because the believe the concentration of Muslims in the area makes this feasible. They are doing so, in this case, by the time honoured Muslim method of terror. The object of jihad (the sixth pillar of Islam) is initially to force infidels to conform to the demands of sharia: it’s all perfectly orthodox. The girl’s crime had diddley squat to do with western interventions. The beeb might have used this story to explore the phenomenon of acid attacks on women and girls in the Muslim countries of Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan, where it is endemic – in stead they prefer to leave viewers uninformed.

    Sarkozy was given a rough ride for banning “face-covering” in public. Brave considering he has 5 million Muslims in France (who strangely, prefer not to live in a Muslim country) but 95% of whom vote Labour (PS) -they held the balance of votes that elected prisoner-of-the-Left idiot Francois “paying more tax is patriotic” Hollande.
    When Theresa May was mischeviously asked whether Britain should follow suite on banning face-covering in public, the useless May said “We don’t do ‘banning” Really? Smoking in public places?
    Now, Theresa May, the acid-throwers friend…second thoughts?

No, that would be the other lot too. “Ban benefits claimants from spending handouts on alcohol” No, thats just a Tory MP wanting a ban. “David Cameron’s ban on increasing council tax bills.” At last! But its sort of “good” banning.

        May be she’s right, but perhaps its time for Conservatives to START banning a few things. Face covering could be a good place to start.

      I’d be curious to know what all those Mohammedans are actually in jail for. Is there a common denominator, offense-wise? It’s a serious, honest question. I’m asking because in the US there’s a problem with the vast amount of young black males being in prison, which is as much due to badly and/or unfairly enforced drug and gun laws as anything else, and not because black men are inherently more violent or genetically more pre-disposed to dealing coke than whites or whatever.

      Is there a specific type of crime for which a majority – or even a significant percentage – of Mohammedans are in jail?

            As usual, a diversity fiend (see what I did there) uses the trick of personalising things – I strongly believe there is something badly wrong with the religion (that comes with the baggage of a legal system, a social philosophy, a politics and even a geo-politics) that Muslims are signed up to. That it should manifest itself in a disregard for kaffir law when possible is perfectly predictable. These things do not obtain with Judaism, a religion that confines any ideas it has about (a liberal and civilised) political power to a thin sliver of land on the east Mediterranean coast.

I suppose you expect me to be grateful that you even deigned to read an entire sentence of mine, but, really, it’s not helping.

    bbc version here ;-

    the REAL story here;-

    THIS LAD was white working class. the bbc probably won’t cover the trial at all. even if they do, just you fucking watch how the bbc will airbrush all mention of racial motive from this story.

    Something in a similar vein.

    Listening to 5 Live during the week, there was a report of a carjacking in Birmingham. Although the reporter emphasised the police were keen to catch the culprits, no description of those involved was given by the reporter.

    Here, on the BBC News webpages, there is a clip and some writing about it. Neither in the clip or the text is a description of the culprits given. There is a second clip on BBC News here. Again, in the clip and in the text no description of the culprits is given.

    Finally, if you go to the BBC News Birmingham & Black Country webpage, you find one of the previously mentioned clips but in the text a police inspector is quoted as saying

    “Two offenders described as black males in their late teens, early 20s, [had] approached the young lady who was getting out of her vehicle, dragged her from the vehicle and made off.”

    At Last. Look, Beeboids, forget about what the depraved BBC NUJ say. A few years back the BBC held an impartiality
    conflab. Top Beeboid Helen Boaden related how she once sent a team to investigate bullying at Feltham Young Offenders Institute. She received telephone call from the team. They told her it was black prisoners bullying white prisoners and they were asking if they could still report it. She told them that if it was true, of course they could.

    Helen never remarked upon how it comes to pass that journalists from a supposedly world renowned news organisation should feel the need to seek permission to report a true story.

      ‘They told her it was black prisoners bullying white prisoners and they were asking if they could still report it.’
      Love that she still used ‘if’ to her own reporters.
      Got a link for that?
      ‘Although the reporter emphasised the police were keen to catch the culprits, no description of those involved was given by the reporter.’
      I remember the old Hawaii 5-0’s, where APB’s were put out with demographic data that would have helped Leakey trace the perps’ ancestors.
      Now the PC BS from the PC PC and BBC renders crime news reporting facile.

      beeboidal, i saw this too. i think when the bbc reports these stories you can join up the dots by whats missing, so really they are shooting themselves in the foot by hiding the obvious. contrary to what these elitists beleive, most people are not stupid.

        David, bottom of page 67 and top of page 68 of this pdf.

        I was wrong about Boaden not commenting about how this comes to pass. Confusion over their commitment to diversity was the reason, apparently. They must be still confused.

        From a time before Twitter, something for your collection.

          Thanks. Confusion over how idiotic they are, I guess. And that old post you’ve linked to is definitely one to remember. And on this blog! It sickens me to read it, especially knowing just how many diehard Leftoids have since been hired by the BBC to cover the US.

          No memo needed for this one, no editorial directive handed down from the top for this kind of thing to happen. They all think the same way: the bias is naturally institutional. Only a purge will fix this.

          So the BBC ranges between Confused.com through the Crankies to Never Mind the Quality, Feel the Width.
          And as accuracy and integrity still plummets, pay-offs and golden pensions rise, along with the number of market rates getting them.
          That is indeed unique.

    Intrigued by this “Halal meat found to contain pork DNA” bit.
    Maybe we could do with a bit of BBC clarity here.
    For doesn`t their very own Brian Cox say in his series for them that “everything on earth shares at least SOME DNA”…so why wouldn`t a chicken or lamb maybe contain some pig DNA?
    Certainly if you look hard enough, focus obsessively to the nearest genome unit, feel that Muslim prisoners are just a little bit too docile and could do with a bit of stirring up, wanted to trash the broken backed prison “system”…and desperately wanted to curry favour with that lovely religion of peace…I`m SURE you could find some pork DNA…if you wanted to take our minds of suicide bombs, amputated fingers, sex grooming of little white girls in care, acid being thrown into faces…need I go on?
    Maybe I should-because the BBC sure as hell don`t wan`t me to…

    Islam Not BBC (INBBC) is, of course, very concerned that Muslim prisoners should be provided with only halal food, as indicated by the prominence INBBC’s pro-Islamic staff gives to this ‘story’ today.

    In contrast, INBBC is not concerned that British non-Muslim people, adults and children, are being forced to buy and eat halal food unknowingly.

    Well, well, the inbbc is finally reporting in its main news bulletin, the acid attack, and saying the attacker was dressed in a burqa.
    Looks as if this site is having an effect.

      I wish it were true, Dysgwr_Cymraeg….. but look how long, and how much effort, it takes to get the BBC to report honestly and accurately when the news doesn’t fit it’s own ideologies….. and notice how little time and effort it takes the BBC to report things, no matter how tenuous the information might be, against those whom it is politically opposed to.

      As Mark Twain put it once, ““It’s easier to fool people than to convince them that they’ve been fooled.”

      And that’s just part of the problem with the BBC.

    My money is on the acid thrower being a bloke. Its men who have the screwed-up religion thing about female “modesty”. By observation women the world over like to buy clothes and look their best. I am not convinced that Muslim women uniquely choose to walk around in a black tent. It is based on fear and the threat of violence from men if they assert themselves and fail to be “modest”.

    The acid-thrower has a religious hard-on. Its a bloke. And its a better “story” to make it look like it was a “sister” wot dun it, enforcing compliance with modesty in a male-dominated religion.

    The sooner we ban face-covering in public, the safer we will all be. Some times you have to give up a bit of freedom to gain a bigger freedom.

    BBC News 24 about 7:30pm – item on the acid attack. In the introduction the newsreader (the woman with brown sraight hair) referred to the acid attack as ‘accidental’. Could have been a slip of the tongue I guess :acid/accidental – freudian slip I guess given they’ve spent the last 2 days trying to coverup and avoid reporting the story. And the attacker was referred to as a ‘mystery attacker’ who was wearing a burka. Could the victim not say whether she thought it was a man or a woman?

    The Andrew Mitchell affair revealed our prejudices, and showed the police to be untrustworthy.”
