    It gets funnier:

    Holder orders FBI, Justice probe of IRS audits

    Why does this sound so hauntingly familiar? Sir Humphrey would be proud. How’s that hopey-changey stuff workin’ out for ya now, BBC?

    10 O’Clock news followed by regional news and the BBC come to the cost of the move to Salford

    Comrades the move to Salford has been acheived within schedule and under budget!
    some counter revolutionaries have criticised us but all the figures won’t be known for 3 years, part of the glorious 5 year plan.

    Rejoice comrades and redouble you efforts for the motherland.

    So no mention of the BBC refusing to give figures for relocation allowances then?

    “Uncomfortable truths”

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-22522232

    what a pusillanimous piece of evaision and mixed messages that almost say something like “there is a huge grey pachyderm sitting on the couch”- but this is lost in a mealy mouthed revalation of the BBC mindset. The article at one point poses a question about the apparent failure to identify the large animal on the couch…

    “Perhaps there is an unconscious and misguided calculation that to act risks damage to something of broader value than the well-being of a single child – public confidence, institutional reputation or community relations”

    Utterly shocking. Who is it that is willing to trade the well being of YOUR child for, well what – can they explain what the trade off is?

    The article then goes very large on the ‘Nazis are whipping up a hate storm using this issue’. Yes BBC, FFS, whilst it is perefectly true that most abuse of children is committed by white male relatives. That is beacuse there are 25million of them. However, that is the same as saying most murderers are right handed, which I am guessing is also true. Meaningless evaision

      Let me rewrite the Easton paragraph to make it clearer:

      “Perhaps there is an unconscious and misguided calculation ON THE PART OF THE SOCIAL SERVICES, POLICE, BBC AND THE POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT that to act risks damage to something of broader value TO THEM than the well-being of a single LOW VALUE child – public confidence IN THE LIES FED TO THEM, institutional reputation OF THE PRODUCER INTERESTS IN THE SOCIAL SERVICES, POLICE, BBC AND POLITICAL PARTIES or community relations SO ENDANGERED BY THEIR BOGUS DOCTRINE OF MULTICULTURALISM.”

    This thread is a classic of the genre and testament to the quality of this site.

    Dezz and Albaman have thrown in abstraction after abstraction, theory after theory, denial after denial and could after should after would, only to be met at every turn with facts and examples – from the real world of which they know so little – that completely refute their innate, diseased bigotry, closed-mindedness and utter incapacity to admit they could possibly be wrong about anything.

    Dezz and Albaman – You are stupid beyond measure and your insistent defence of the outright indefensible makes you complicit in these despicable, savage and barbaric practices that amount to the enforced slavery of vulnerable young girls.

    Shame, shame, shame on you both.

    With my sexual physique Alah know me well built
    Oh me oh my well well can’t you tell?
    Me sister dressed like a turtle peering out of a shell
    Gal you captivate my body put me under a spell
    With your carehome perfume I love your cheap smell
    You are the only young girl that can ring my bell
    And I can take rejection so you tell me go to hell

    bbc 5live 8.40 am – this morning has obfuscating to a new level re paedostani and muslim child rape gangs.
    panto campbell pulls in some airhead from the guardian
    to point the finger at “all communities”? at “society”? why are girls out? … late at night? in areas where a lot of ahem “asian” businesses are open? because they could be vulnerable?
    …. the shameful pap of … because of those areas … those businesses, they are obviously going to come into contact with …. ahem “asians?… (shakes head).
    this excusery idiot, fell short of stating …
    if only they went out with a male relative,
    were overly controlled in the home – yaaayyy! sharia eh! ….
    … but not by much.
    oops my “bbc-bias sense” is a tingling
    i feel a tad of protectionism coming over the bbc.
    so … stand by yer beds folks!
    (if only it was) “Your Call” … is up and coming –
    but before it does, a police spokesman confirms “race” and “religion” has nothing to do with it, thanks for clearing that up says panto.
    the ejector seat protector of the religion of peace Moh Shafiq, will i m sure appear, with talk of “criminals”,
    anne archer will tiptoe around for a bit, with verbal gymnastics etc.

    Last week Telford and saturation coverage of elections in Pakistan.
    Yesterday, Oxford. BBC news and Newsnight last night seemed to be putting more effort into the exculpation of the guilty than giving us the facts.
    Thought for the day this morning – about Pakistan.
    WTF is going on? Come on Beeb, stop taking the piss please.

      Yes, is this to suit new D.G. Mr Hall, or to suit the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation, which demands (unreported by INBBC) global legislation to ban criticism of Islam?

    BBC-NUJ seems to have ‘moved on’ from this:-

    “Horrific ordeal of ‘Girl Three’ who was raped at 11, injected with heroin, branded with a hairpin and sold for sex at £600 an hour.
    “Nightmare began for girl shortly after her 11th birthday.
    “Mohammed Karrar plied her with drink and drugs and raped her.
    “She then became his ‘property’ and a sex slave.
    “Was loaned out to abusers around the country for up to £600 an hour.”

    It’s interesting to see after a couple of days on an Open thread how our BBC management speak friends liven up the debate on here. By questioning us and trying to throw spanners in the works they ensure that our points are re-emphasised, debated properly and leave no stone unturned. Their futile attempts to send the truth of down side streets does not work and seems to get little support. Without them this would perhaps be a very boring place where we just pat ourselves on the back and then having written our peace we get on with real life.

    So whilst they are plainly bonkers and get the blood boiling with their daft comments we must thank them for throwing themselves into the fray and letting our passion for honesty and integrity show clearly through and perhaps more importantly the transparency of their arguments on the other side.

    Truth and reality, as it always does, will win eventually.

      I find their attempts to undermine any suggestion that the grooming cases have racial implications particularly amusing.

      For years, they’ve been training everybody else to seek out racially motivated crime and injustice, usually by drawing conclusions from the race of the victim, and by constant references to Stephen Lawrence and Macpherson. Now, however, that “training” is being used against their wishes and they don’t like it one little bit.

    Little or no comment yet from Al-Beeb and Two Eds.
