NO WORD ON TODAY

(A guest post by Graeme Thompson who comments as ‘hippiepooter’)

‘No word on TODAY ‘notes MEP and Telegraph blogger Daniel Hannan.  What on earth, in Mr Hannan’s view, could merit a ‘word’ on Britain’s flagship radio news programme that it doesn’t get?

This.

An election candidate arrested for quoting Winston Churchill’s unflattering observations on Islam.

The election candidate in question, Paul Weston of Liberty GB, notes on his party’s website, that had he quoted Adolf Hitler’s admiration for Islam he would not have been arrested.

Why should it come as a surprise to anyone who has listened to the TODAY programme over the last 30 years that it does not cover this latest outrage against British democracy?

Police officers now uphold political correctness instead of the law with impunity.  BBC Thought Police on TODAY and other programmes have been instrumental in creating the conditions for this.

Not so much now, as they have achieved their major objective in bringing about the transition stage to tyranny of ‘shamocracy’, but I regularly used to hear TODAY ‘interviews’ with correctnick guests that were nothing more than propaganda pieces.  Correctnick guests were fed prompts to give them a platform.  Guests out of lockstep with ‘kulturkampf’ would be harried and harangued to ‘unperson’ them.  In my experience ‘ex-catedra’ pronouncements dressed up as ‘interviews’ were – and still are – most in evidence with representatives from Stonewall, spurious ‘anti-racism’ campaigners, the EU and those aiding and abetting enemy propaganda in the Jihad war against the West.

Islam is as much a natural ally of the totalitarian left as it was for the fascist right in the 30’s.  The arrest of Mr Weston clearly demonstrates that.

For the record, I do have qualms about Liberty GB.  Maybe it is a racist party, maybe it isn’t.  I wouldn’t dream of voting for them while doubts remain.  However, whether Mr Weston is a closet racist or not, the fact remains he was exercising his democratic right to free speech within the law.  But in ‘New Britain’, Political Correctness trumps law.  There have been many examples of Christians being arrested for saying homosexuality is a sin.  Invariably charges are either dropped or dismissed at Court.  In the most recent case the Magistrate cast doubt on whether a Police Constable was acting in the execution of her duty.  To date, to my knowledge, no Police officer has ever faced disciplinary action for such clear abuse of power.  As in these cases as will no doubt prove to be the case with Mr Weston, Correctnick police act with impunity.

They know that BBC programmes like TODAY and Newsnight have their backs.”

    It would seem, in today’s multicultural society, that calling someone names and/or hurting their feelings is met with harsher consequences than committing your more traditional hard crime – say beating someone up because they don’t follow Islam.

    Paul Weston strikes me as being a nice middle class bloke who has actually read the Koran & the Hadith & understood exactly what Islam is all about. I’d vote for him but I live in a 9,000 majority Labour ward, so it would be almost pointless. If the BBC did pull their tongue out of Islam’s arsehole & actually said what it does on the tin, we then might have a slim chance of addressing the Sharia laws bullshit before it becomes enshrined in our country. Fat chance of that happening though!

    When the day comes and a certain group of people who are not British but British passport holders only, decide to create a backwards middle eastern religious State in Britain, thank God the Army is still on the peoples side. Its probably why the BBC and the Left hate our Armed Forces so much

    Another matter that I doubt the bbc will announce to the country is that Lloyds Bank; you know, one of the Banks we have poured billions of our taxpayer pounds into keeping afloat; has decided that muslims can take out accounts that, being sharia compliant, do not attract interest payments for overdrafts. And, as I understand it, these accounts are only available to muslims.

      Islam Creates Monsters Says Psychologist

      Danish psychologist Nicolai Sennels, an expert in working with Muslim youth criminal offenders, has written a new book entitled Among Criminal Muslims. A Psychologist’s Experience from the Copenhagen Municipality, and in an essay supporting the book, he claims that “Islam creates monsters.” A recent study out of Germany supports Sennels’ statement. It found that devout Muslims were more prone to violence than the non-Muslim participants in the study.

      Sennels says Islam is different from other religions because the way it is taught brainwashes its youth with violent messages. Parents inflict violence on their children repeatedly, Sennels claims, and at the same time, deliver religious ideology. He says this behavior makes Muslim extremists far more violent than extremists of other religious faiths.

      The brainwashing, as Sennels terms it, begins very early on in a child’s life, and religious messages are repeated vigorously along with a heavy dose of physical discipline. It is this combination of pain and reinforcement, Sennels claims, that creates Islamic “monsters” who then feel justified in torturing and killing innocent people.

          Robert Spencer is nearly always dead on the money on Islam, but when one looks at his hysterical reaction to Melanie Phillips not being in 100% agreement with him. I think he’s far more influenced by Islam than he’d care to imagine. He’s a very unpleasant character and it would suprise me at all if one day he becomes a Muslim like a member of Geert Wilder’s party did.

              It`s no surprise that our watchmen and women are-by nature-prickly, and not the easiest people for many of us to like.
              The likes of Hitchens, Phillips, Hannan, Farage etc, etc…Wilders and Spencer for that matter-are brave and fearless, and have been right on all this for a long time.
              The abuse and hatred-and dangers incurred in speaking out-will make them seem unreasonable…and all are deeply flawed like the rest of us.
              But-despite my not agreeing entirely with any of them at all times-they are right far more often than they are wrong. They are all too often doing my heavy lifting for me, and I don`t care about their blind spots and errors any more than they would for mine.
              They are better off being right than being liked…and I salute each and every one of them.
              Leave the flat pack crap of stock solutions to the thick, nasty and evil left of politics…and that now includes liberals and creepy greens of all shades.
              Only the thinking right will turn this liberal lilo around…from Burke to Thatcher, Israel and the USA…Christianity and freedom…all litmus test and non-negotiable to me.

      “UK: Lloyds drops overdraft fee on Islamic accounts”

      By Robert Spencer, ‘Jihadwatch’.

      [Opening paragraph]:-

      “’Do I have to change my religion to get the best deal?’asked one woman. The answer is no: ‘A Lloyds spokesman said Islamic accounts were intended for customers who cannot receive or pay interest under sharia, but were available to anyone, regardless of their faith.’ How wonderful! You can avoid the overdraft fees as long as you submit to the hegemony of Sharia, you see. As long as you understand that Islamic law must be respected above all other laws and statutes, and are willing to comply with its restrictions, you can save up to £80 a month in overdraft fees.”

      -And today, on Radio 4, the INBBC programme ‘Money Box’ presented this financial development as though it were a chance of a bargain, ignoring the fact that it marks a further step in the Islamisation of Britain.+

      “Reality” is a subversive concept for the Left. That is why they are so addicted to pseudo-sciences. They are more interested (as part of their narcissism) in justifying their psychological (and moral) inadequacies by projecting them onto the world. The bloke who regularly comes on here saying how much he hates everybody here is a classic example. He rarely has anything to say about the BBC, all he tells us about is his own innate pathologies – which of course is of zero interest to anybody but himself.

    Despite all the blather we hear about our “inclusive” “multicultural” and “tolerant” society, we do seem to be somewhat lacking in the last of those qualities. We are seeing people being criminalised for what is effectively thought crime. This is shameful and frightening and something I didn’t ever think I would witness in Britain. The old liberal mantra went something like “I disagree with what you have said but will defend to the death your right to say it.”

      According to Mr Weston which is not disputed in a Police Statement, the basis for the dispersal order was some people didn’t like the views he was expressing. Disobeying the dispersal order was, according to Mr Weston, dropped at the station, and then he was rearrested for racial harrassment.

      One notes the BBC were not interested in getting Mr Weston’s side of things.

          “Merseyside in 2012, a popular BNP figure called Mike Whitby was running for the Liverpool city Mayorship when, without warning, the police raided his home. The moment that British police batter the front door down of the home of this respectable middle-aged man while his family look on, can be seen in this shocking video.

          Again the police refused to allow the BNP activist to attend the police station of his own accord, preferring a traumatic and highly visible raid.
          Again the matter was dropped without coming to trial and after Mike Whitby’s campaign was effectively destroyed.”

    Agreed Mr Vance.
    I too hold no truck for out and out racism, but Weston does nothing but read from Churchills old writings, that are still relevant and timeless in large measure.
    The fact that some stickybeak woman is happy to ask if he has a license to read from the book on the steps of Winchester Guildhall-and then dob him in for not having said permission is truly creepy…very SS!
    That the BBC say nothing about this only shows that tumbleweed is their only response to the huge issues this political with hunt brings with it.
    Christopher Booker gives us scandal after scandal on Childrens Court evils on a weekly basis…never makes headlines either there at the quisling BBC.
    The BNP cartoon broadcast was banned as well-and unsurprisingly it is now well-watched and we agree with its content…we`d be more critical if we were free to watch, but once they censor-then the English will bite back.
    Farage is on the right lines…and he`s as reasonable as it is going to get….the liberals are goading us to real trouble at the moment, and not all of us are content to debate with the pastel nazis much longer.

    In effect, it is with the unelected Muslim, Baroness WARSI, Minister for Faith, who Islam Not BBC (INBBC) is politically lined up, in relation to censorship of criticism of Islam:

      “So to summarise; Sayeeda Warsi, a woman who failed to secure an elected place in Parliament in 2005, now enjoys a seat at the Cabinet table despite the fact that she remains unelected.
      She has used this position to commit the UK to assisting in the implementation of a resolution which will effectively criminalise anyone who dares to tell the truth about what happens in the name of Islam (this would be “negative stereotyping” you see).
      She has no mandate for this, and she wouldn’t have if the people were ever asked our opinion on the matter.
      She is assisted in her endeavours by the US Government. A Government headed by Barack “the future does not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam” Obama.

      Warsi was appointed to the Cabinet by David Cameron, a man equally committed to making us as sharia-compliant as possible.
      In October, he informed us that we were about to become the only non-Muslim country to issue Islamic bonds.
      The Prime Minister’s ambition is to see London stand “alongside Dubai as one of the great capitals of Islamic finance anywhere in the world.”
      Given the determination of the USA and UK to promote all things Islamic, and their partnership with Islamist states in their efforts to criminalise us all, it is only a matter of time before we are completely silenced.

      So if you have anything to say about Islam — and the barbarism carried out in its name — I suggest you say it now.”

The BBC-NUJ should point out with each report that Mr Greste is an ex-BBC reporter, lest BBC-NUJ be accused of special preferential pleading, but it doesn’t.

      It is no good BBC-NUJ trying to claim that it is supporting ‘free speech,’ because we know that BBC-NUJ opposes ‘free speech’ of Geller and Spencer to criticise Islam; unless BBC-NUJ now admits it has become so Islamic that it is only politically acceptable to support the Muslim Brotherhood, but not to oppose it.
