        From what I’ve heard so far on this the BBC seem very anxious to frame it as ‘yet another lone wolf attack’. I mean, from what we know of Islamic atrocities so far, Islamists couldn’t organise themselves into cohesive terrorist groups if they tried, could they?

        Have the BBC forgotten 9/11 and 7/7 already, or deliberately consigned them to the Memory Hole? I seem to remember on the 10th anniversary of 7/7 there wasn’t a sniff of a news item on the BBC let alone any kind of feature commemorating the atrocity.

          The tenth anniversary of the 7/7 attack is next year. That terrorist attack happened in 2005.

          It’s a date I will never ever forget. It’s my wedding anniversary.

            Good point Ken – thanks for the correction. I stand by my comment about the lack of commemoration, though, especially as the BBC are keen to remind us ad nauseam about the Brevik atrocity.

    This morning’s business news on the Today programme visited The British Invention Show, an exhibition paying homage to the innovation and inventiveness of our remarkable island race.

    Sadly, the lady curator was soon turned and twisted by our intrepid reporter and all of a sudden found herself talking about ‘inequality’, ranging from the 10 million or so in Britain who don’t have access to the internet (willingly or otherwise – there was no distinction) to the research grants which go predominantly to male researchers (95% was quoted, but it was not substantiated).

    Any opportunity to pursue an agenda, even when they have to fabricate it out of thin air. They just can’t stop themselves can they?

      We once exhibited at that.

      Lovely bunch. Really committed to giving folk a fair crack. More than reasonable exhibiting fees. And none of the quango meddling you get from the likes of NESTA or the blatant rigging of Dragon’s Den.

      Some bonkers stuff but a few nifty ideas.

      And usually a bit of decent media coverage to go with.

      But the BBC has now decided to bring the malign weight of their inclusivity obsession to this too?

      How the heck can these guys be expected to cope with all that? Tackle Suralun or RDAs on hurdles placed in the path of shed-based innovators, where it’s who you know and the boxes that please bean-counters that see largesse doled out over the left-field solo guys.

      Please tell me they at least covered and celebrated some nice ideas whilst trying to wangle the angle?

    I have to laugh when I see Camerons impotent anger at the latest demand from Brussels, which of course after much huffing & puffing he will pay quietly.
    The BBC have been in damage limitation mode, not for the EU but for the UKs Labour appointed Baroness Ashton, who the Germans claim has been ineffective to the point that Britain had no commissioner at all!
    When the beeboid went to damage limit suggesting that she had other commitments, the German audibly shrugged his shoulders, in a kind of ‘so what’ if she can’t do her job then why is she still commissioner?
    The beeboid quick to counter suggested that her office was able to function effectively in her absence. The German interviewee with a tone of resignation said ‘well even that wasn’t being run effectively’ !

    So lets blame the EU because it’s a ridiculous organisation which can’t even tell us how they made the calculation, but lets not forget that this is Labour foul up for appointing a commissioner who was unable to do the job, or organise her office to function properly, and as a result allowed this to happen.
    Even if she couldn’t stop it, she could have at least given London the heads up it was coming, but she didn’t even manage to do that !

      I have a theory, which is yet to be played out, that this sudden extra charge has been arranged between Cameron and the EU. Cameron is already talking big about how he will refuse to pay it. If I’m right, the EU will back down just in time to influence the voting in the forthcoming Rochester by-election.

      Call me cynical but nothing this dishonest would surprise me about any politicians from the main parties, and even less where the EU is involved.

    More climate guff on Today this morning: (paraphrased) ‘As well as warming the earth, man-made carbon emissions are acidifying our oceans with dire consequences for marine life’.

    Still using models to spout ‘And this is what we expect to happen’ scenarios – those same clapped-out models that spectacularly failed to predict the lack of warming for the last 18 years:

    ‘In recent testimony to the Subcommittee on Environment of the US House – Science, Space and Technology Committee, Dr. John Christy, the Alabama State Climatologist, presented stark evidence that none of the climate models referenced in the 2013 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) AR5 report accurately predicted the earth’s temperature history over the last several decades. Yet these are the same models that are the basis for establishing their climate sensitivity uncertainty range.’

    (Also see excellent diagram on p2)

    Funny how we never heard this on the BBC, either from Dr. Christy (who would be denounced by some BBC-invited eco-fascist as a redneck, bible belt creationist anyway) or from a host of other scientific sources that have overwhelmingly disproven these models with real world evidence.

    Funny, that.

      How dare people want to have privately owned vehicles that permit them to travel as they please. They have to be forced into slow, inconvenient, disease laden public cattle trucks and pay 4K a year for the privilege. I commute by train and the provision is terrible – packed, slow, unheated, full of ill people and worst of all people unable to contain their farts in public. Vile. If I could travel in my nice warm comfortable car from door to door I would, and no doubt be a climate criminal.

    These guys again shred BBC credibility like a Claymore in a balloon factory.

    The BBC’s answers, such as they are, are pathetic.

    Interestingly, early today some noted on FaceBook the BBC getting excited by other casualty figures.

    US-led air strikes against Islamic State (IS) militants in Syria have killed 553 people since September, UK-based activists say http://bbc.in/1DFlogX

    The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights says 464 IS fighters, 57 other militants and 32 civilians have died.

    Beyond the BBC appearing a lot more sanguine about the ongoing collateral damage via Barry’s Bombers, given everything from combatants often not wearing uniforms to the aftermath realities of modern ordnance going boom, to get to such stats as 464/57/32… from a source in the UK, makes activist-based assessments low on the cred scale, so punting them out raises questions across the board on sensible news value.

    Oh, and for BBC hate site groupies unaware of the law of unintended consequences, there’s a few to get them shut down if you fancy trying.

    Unless it’s the right kind of hate this time for you. Darth Sidious would love the BBC, certainly.

    BBC One 6 o’clock news reports concerns about whether parents should be allowed to take their children out of school during term time.
    Usually a ‘school’ story demonstrates the ‘rich diversity’ of Clegg’s ‘Modern Britain’ but tonight’s story is from a 99% ‘white’ school, so this is clearly a problem confined to the idle indigenous.

It is true that 97% believe in climate change, which is the question they were asked, which is like asking them if the sun rises in the morning.

    Feedback with Roger Bolton raised the issue of positive discrimination in BBC recruitment in favour of BEM’s I think is now the term – Blacks and other ethnic minorities.
    Roger explained he was now going to discuss this policy with two guests. Goody I thought, at least we will hear a view opposing the policy of positive discrimination. But wait – what’s this?
    Both guests turn out to be black Jamaicans, both heavily in favour of the policy quelle surprise, and there is our Roger in the middle, chipping in helpfully to ask how we can make the policy work most effectively. You couldn’t make it up.

The BBC is looking for women of any age who would like to get into broadcasting…’ It went on to talk about opportunities at a BBC broadcasting academy and an open day some time in, I think, November.

        Not just immigration and multiculturalism – the activists and feminazis in the BBC continue to take on, for themselves, the task of changing the face of Britain for ever…all paid for by the TeleTax payers.

  11. Why have the proles turned to UKIP? Notice the Beeb haven’t done a doco’ or anything like a proper investigation in to thie biggest political revolution in this country for decades. Apart from the “Farage Factor” hatchet job.

    I can only presume it would open a can of worms about the failings (intentions) of the liberal ruling classes on mass immigration, sexual grooming, expenses, two party state, European Union, Islam, educational failure and of course the…erh BBC and its failure to report all the above years ago.

    Anyone believe for one minute the Balkanising Britain Corporation knew nothing about mass rapes in Rotherham? Seriously the whole of the local BBC news staff should have resigned in shame for either they were (and are) useless or they hid the facts. Even the bone headed BNP knew and we’re shouting it from the roof tops for years ( to be fair to them) But the BBC? Nothing. Zilch.

    When the BNP know more than you and your sole purpose is to investigate and report you really do need to call it a day as you are not fit for purpose.

      Polly at the very time the ‘bone head BNP’ were shouting from the roof tops about the industrial scale hate crime that was being perpetrated in Rotherham and other towns around the country. the BBC spent a fortune (of your money) infiltrating and agitating in the BNP ,for a full six months filming hundreds of hours of conversations with bone head activists ( but still failing to get the money shot ). In fact the very evidence they eventually forwarded to CPS ,in a failed attempt to get Griffin jailed prior to his election to EU parliament, was his giving a speech on the very subject of muslim grooming gangs. So we know they were aware of the allegations and the scale of alleged abuse, but in all that six month of black ops or the months of post filming production (creative editing) they never followed up on any of it. (world leading journalists that they are)
      The BBC have much to answer for, having played a leading role in the cover up of this war crime scale atrocity. One wonders how many young girls lives were ruined while they cynically sat on the story .

What I deliberately did not do was to suggest that a person’s views should be suppressed because they are disagreeable (to me). Freedom of speech has been hard won, and has already been egregiously eroded, most notably by Labour’s legislation (but willingly acceded to by Con and Lib). However, freedom of speech does not exclude someone passing an opinion on someone else’s views!

      It is a shire based revolution and very much happening in England. The elite is aware but as usual in complete denial. The awareness is shallow and modified by a refusal to face reality.
      I also think the leadership of UKIP is not sure what to do. It means this leadership will have to be very careful not to be overwhelmed. Or to let down this popular support and itself be swept aside.
      Following historical precedent I assume that dramatic change ,which is coming, will come very suddenly and as a result of a key event that has yet to occur. Although it is possible that it has already occured but we are to close to realise this. It is quite possible that this has happened.
      It takes around 2 years for a key event to produce real change
      Already the established politicians are showing signs of stress as they react to events that are slipping beyond their control. Just watch how Cameron and Milliband are floundering . This is a time for optimism.
      The liberal elite is fading. The violent left is left with violence as the only weapon and that is never enough.
      As for the BBC -the pinnacle of liberal media fantasy- it is clueless. It cannot make a programme about something rapidy growing beyond their comprehension.
      Finally it is almost a law of human nature that change, real change that sets the course of a nation or a culture, is always rapid and always unforeseen
      This is an ancient nation and we are an ancient people. Liberalism attempted to deny this and to deny the reality that a nation is a compact between the past the present and the future.
      Liberalism has threatened this and in particular the last- the future.
      We respond to this in ways that we are dimly aware of and in ways that cannot be foreseen. The liberal elite ,the BBC/Guardian views ot the 68ers and so on have tampered with forces that need to be left alone. A conservative knows this instinctively. It is now up to us to put things right.

        Thanks, excellent. As you say, it is usually the case that revolutions are only predicted in hindsight. However, there are indicators, even if they are inevitably ambivalent. Indicators of desperation – applying the methods and attitudes of censorship and distortion to ever wider and sometimes bizarre areas of news and programming. The introduction of gender-inequality to the innovation exhibition reporting mentioned elsewhere in this thread; the strange obsession with placing cigarettes into everyone’s mouths in absolutely every historical drama – they’ll be shoving them up the cat’s arse next; the eery degeneration of Lord Bragg’s programme in the face of compulsory gender-balanced panel composition; the frankly weird treatment of sport on the Today programme; and many other crazy examples.
        What this may all show is an awareness that the water is running out of the bath-tub of lies, accompanied by a frantic turning of all the taps to full on, in the vain hope of concealing what lies beneath the scummy surface of misrepresentation .
        Of course, this can’t go on forever, and eventually we may see (are already seeing?) the next phase, where an increasing number of news items simply can’t be broadcast, because the risk of contradiction and incoherence becomes an inevitability. As I implied in a previous post, this is when the more percipient ones start abandoning ship.
        I think it behoves us to start thinking about how broadcasting should be resurrected WHEN not IF the BBC collapses. The failure to adequately envisage the collapse of the Soviet Communist bloc before it actually happened, was responsible for much of the bad that followed on.

    With all the hiatus over the latest EU ‘tax’ demand, it would be all too easy to overlook this:

    An an example of the people who run Europe, consider the most recently appointed European Commissioner, Violetta Bulc. According to Roger Helmer, a prominent UKIP Euroskeptic member of the European Parliament, Bulc is on record as claiming to be a practicing fire walker and a shaman. http://rogerhelmermep.wordpress.com/2014/10/22/fire-walking-a-key-skill-for-eu-commissioners/

    On her blog, Bulc describes herself as an expert on balanced sustainable development strategies, organic growth and innovation ecosystems. She believes in the power of networks, holistic individual, and positive energy.

    A recent post on Bulc’s blog is “The vibration of white lions in the new era”.

    http://www.violeta.si/2014/09/the-vibration-of-white-lions-in-new-era.html

    (Follow that link to understand the new age bollocks this trusted Commissioner actually, really believes in – it’s beyond parody).

    Yet Bulc is now, or shortly will become, one of the most powerful people in Europe – one of 28 European commissioners, who have sole power to source new legislation, which is usually in my opinion rubber stamped by near powerless European parliament. The European commission is also the sole body responsible for ensuring the legislation they source is executed – the commission combines executive, oversight and legislative powers into a single polity.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Commission

    Bulc will never have to face a vote – only members of the European parliament have to bother with all that populist democracy nonsense. Commissioners are appointed.’

    http://wattsupwiththat.com/2014/10/24/europe-commits-economic-suicide-agrees-massive-emission-cuts/

    Best of all, look out for her on the BBC and expect due reverence being accorded her every wise eco-utterance.

      The intellectual level of Jeremy Hardy is STAGGERINGLY low, on top of the fact that he’s not very funny either. For instance, he said that the people of Clacton had little or no immigration in their community, so asked how could they know what it was like. The obvious point, which he failed to mention, is that they are aware of what’s going on elsewhere AND MAY INDEED HAVE BEEN PART OF WHITE FLIGHT TO CLACTON TO ESCAPE IT.

      Another Hardy trick is his self-positioning by accent between the hated UKIP proles (on whom he looks down and whom he imitated by using a certain rough southern accent) and the equally hated Tory toffs (whom he sneeringly takes off with a ‘posh’ voice). This talentless BBC parasite would likely be very sensitive about remarks on his whining and unpleasant voice.

        A few years ago I was at Balham tube station and who should be standing very close to the edge of the platform, Mr Jeremy Hardy. It was late morning and the rush hour had gone and there was no one else about. As I mentioned he stood precariously close to the edge; one decent sneeze or an “accidental” nudge and the weedy little runt would be history. Because of my inaction, or squeamishness we have all suffered years of hearing his pathetic whining voice preaching lefty dogma to us from Radio 4.

    ‘Have I Got News For You’ tonight tried very,very hard to mock UKIP for the first ten minutes.

    But it didn’t work and fell flat. The audience failed to titter and giggle.

    Are we seeing a change?? A realisation perhaps that UKIP are actually supported by many if not most??

      I think you could be right.

      Tonight I popped onto UKIP’s Facebook Page and noticed that so far they have 278,441 “Likes”(basically people who have “subscribed” although it’s free).

      That is an amazing figure for a political party, especially for the “under dog”.

      The BBC are desperate to blame the Conservatives for the so-called “austerity cuts” and never miss an opportunity to stick the boot in but I wonder if it’s actually back-firing on them and swaying people to UKIP.

      You see, people are aware of such things as schools being closed and services being cut(austerity) but they’re also becoming more aware of UKIP’s message in relation to the £ Billions that it costs the UK to be in the EU and are realising that this money could do so much for Britain if it wasn’t handed over to Brussels every year.

      UKIP are a breath of fresh air and the people are flocking to it.

Neither does she comment on why the Egyptians have taken this action. Surely they don’t see Gaza as the origin of their foes.

    The jihadist attacks in Canada are bad, but completely expected, and have only killed 2 soldiers. To put that in perspective nearly 2 000 Iraqi civilians were murdered by political violence last month alone, many presumably by jihadists [https://www.iraqbodycount.org/database/]. The BBC needs to keep things in perspective and not take the spotlight off IS.
    Similarily, while the BBC is happy to discuss whether a footballer who raped 1 woman should be punished after prison, the BBC seems curiously uninterested in the paedophile gangs who raped over 1400 girls in Rotherham.
    Ebola we are constantly told has killed 4 500 people this year as the BBC steers a course which seems to alternate between instilling panic and complacency in the listener. Yet malaria kills nearly 2 000 a day [http://www.who.int/malaria/media/world_malaria_report_2013/en/]
    And why might it be that big bad pharma which gets torn apart by hostile media for making a profit or overlooking side effects, and which faces state backed copying, why has it not yet developed an ebola vaccine? It’s a mystery isn’t it? As is why the WHO with a programme budget of around $4 billion [http://www.who.int/about/resources_planning/A66_7-en.pdf?ua=1] ,which I assume excludes operating costs, hasn’t funded a vaccine?
    And news from Zimbabwe and Ukraine seems to have dried up.

    Islam Not BBC (INBBC) continues its politically sympathetic propaganda for
    ‘British’ Islamic jihadist enemies of we Kafirs, who are killed in Syria.

    INBBC:-
    “Briton confirmed dead in US air strike on Syria jihadists.”

    The underlying political tone of the following video report by INBBC’s
    Mr Secunder Kermani is inevitably: anti-West, pro-Islam.

    The Muslim killed in Syria is typically portrayed by INBBC as a victim of the West; and,
    we are led to believe: ‘he was a typical East End boy who became more religious.’
    -More accurately: he was a Muslim who became an Islamic jihadist.

      Then I began to notice a disproportionate amount of its time was given over to slagging off the Daily Mail, whist the likes of the Guardian got away almost unscathed. Then Ian Hislop, hitherto the show’s freelance satirist who would have a go at all things absurd, regardless of political hue, started to join in the leftist hatefest of anything remotely right wing. Then it became obvious that the panels were skewed ridiculously leftwards and, like ‘comedy’ programmes on Radio 4, only jokes pitched at right-leaning politicians and newspapers were getting the laughs.

      At that point I gave up.

I think that, and not any genuine fury that he had snorted coke with a call girl, was what really angered them. That was years back, so God knows what they get paid now. Whatever it is, Hislop is clearly not going to bite the hand that feeds him. He may be the editor of Private Eye, but the big money comes from sucking up to Auntie Beeb, and there is no way he will forget that.

    I watched a recording of This Week, Andrew Neil’s late night show on Thursday. Mr Portillo was worried about the closing down of free speech by people who voiced opinions contrary to the current fashionable views , being attacked on the twittersphere , other social media and lobby groups and being forced to withdraw their remarks.
    he cited the case of some footballer and also of the UKIP calypso.
    So far so good. Then he said that he felt that it was up to the BBC to stand up for free speech!!!.
    I was speechless, surely the BBC is the very organ that gives platforms to any and all leftist lobby groups on any topic they wish to vent their spleens about. Whilst at the same time it refuses to give platforms to any with whom it disagrees. Mr Portillo is, of course, well remunerated by the BBC and I expect he is hoping for many more contracts and appearances in the coming years. This must the explanation as to why he thought that the thoroughly undemocratic, leftist, stateist BBC might be the guardian of free speech. Leaving the BBC as the guardian of free speech is like leaving the fox in charge of the hen coop.

      So, the sum total of INBBC’s propaganda today on 4 dead jihadists from Portsmouth is:

      1.) a Muslim INBBC report sympathetic to dead jihadists
      [see ‘Open Thread Comment at 9:26 am today above];

      2.) apologetics from Islamic Quilliam in sole propaganda spot on INBBC News Channel.

      Would Islamic Al Jazeera do it differently?

      INBBC is totally infiltrated ideologically by Islamic interests.

      The piece on Quilliam is excellent, why doesn’t it surprise me that the first mosque was built in liverpool by a scouser who thought he was being clever and ‘progressive’.

      How much taxpayer cash has been thrown at that dump with very little change, a bit like the muslim problem the country has and will have in a much larger way in the decades to come.

      The money point was interesting. I believe that if ISIS is defeated there will,like the head of Medusa, be another offshoot of islam that will keep us firmly entrenched in the Middle East theatre. The only way to stop it will be to cut the head off completely.

      The reason for this is down to money, the more the Western world is fighting wars against islam, the more money it costs, the weaker the West becomes and the easier it becomes for muslims to implement their prophesy written in the Koran which is to subjugate and live of the back of the ‘kuffirs’. The liberals are making it easier for them. The West seems to have been in permanent recession since the war on terror began.

      The biggest disappointment regarding the killing of Mehdi Hassan is that I thought it was the Mehdi Hassan from the Huffington Post and regular bbc contributor! I nearly opened a bottle of Champers.

      A quote from Noggin’s link if I may:

      ‘A police spokesman had earlier said the arrests were “in relation to conflicts overseas” and were “not linked to any immediate threat to local communities or anywhere else in the UK”.’

      Conflicts overseas? What does that mean?
      Do we have to guess amongst ourselves?

      The main points from the second link are;

      The brother of the fighter just about sums up the feelings of 99.9% of muslims when it comes to their cult and jihad.

      The piece at the end by Shiraz Maher was probably some of the most ridiculous views on Al Qaeda I’ve read.

    The word ‘fighter’ in this context.
    What’s he ‘fighting’?

    He’s fighting for the chance to slaughter civilians. The chance to butcher women and children on video.

    He’d wet himself if confronted with British soldiers.

    They are worse than the Rotherham paedos. And that’s saying something.
    Strip them of glamour and rhetoric. Nothing but Bullying Gang Yobs with guns and knives. Treat them as such. And with no respect what so ever.

    The worm must turn.

    Posh tosser Xander Armstrong and Frankenstein’s monster Richard Osman were waxing lyrical about fellow Beeboids on Pointless Celebrities today. I suppose we shouldn’t be surprised – they are employed by the BBC after all – but it’s interesting how they view anything other than the BBC.
    ‘Any single thing that either John Sergeant or Kate Adie says I take to be the truth’. That’s the problem I would suggest, people taking the BBC as gospel rather than what it is, deeply biased.
    ‘For our generation you [Kate Adie] are the most famous journalist we know’. Frankly, she looked embarrassed. ‘World events didn’t really become world events until you showed up … if someone else was reporting we knew it wasn’t that important.’ Pass the sick bucket.
    At the same time they were disparaging to LBC presenters Nick Ferrari and Julia Hartley Brewer.
    ‘Nick Ferrari isn’t gonna outfox us any time soon’, says Osman. Famous last words it would turn out.
    ‘You do the Breakfast Show on LBC which I listen to a lot in when I’m in the back of minicabs and I find only if I only listen to 20 minutes, I get very wound up’, says Xander . You should hear me when I listen to the fucking BBC, mate.

    Naturally, LBC got to the final and won it and won money for their charities. Go, Team LBC!
