And now today I read:
‘Gambian diplomats guilty of tobacco fraud’
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-30383204
Just me or does the guy rolling a ciggie appear a little pale…. or is there something about Gambians I haven’t heard?
I thought they were – as Felix Dexter’s posh lawyer character Douglas would put it – ‘chaps of a darker hue’
As I see it,
Brilliantly spotted! El beeb is guilty of not allowing ‘people of colour ‘ to commit crimes. surely this is discrimination against their rights to be members of the criminal fraternity, a part of society that has been much maligned over the years and will never get a good image whilst the likes of the beeb refuse to allow ‘ people of colour ‘ their human rights to be as criminal as any white people would be. !!
I propose a campaign to make the bbc allow this minority their ‘right’ to be seen as criminals.
BBc Breakfast this morning as usual not really watching it as it’s crap. However I did notice of the NW region news they appear to have yet another weather forecast presenter, Also air quality would seem to be so bad that some organisation says we should outfit schools with air filtration units.?????WTF.
I see the BBC Fascists are really sticking the knife into an immigration judge who said that someone with the name Patel would most likely be working in a corner shop or off licence.
So the BBC manage to find such provincial no mark as Faruk Desai, chief executive of Preston Racial Equality Council.
However even Faruk Desai calls the remark a “sweeping generalisation” NOT ‘racist’.
Amjad Malik, an immigration lawyer (surprise surprise) who also chairs of the Association of Pakistani Lawyers in the North West
said of the judge’s alleged remarks: “We as a society expect far more from our judges – that is why we are so surprised when we hear these kind of remarks.
“I think these things do happen in life but we expect propriety from members of the judiciary… from judges you expect them to be a
It’s unusual for the BBC to even bother to look for local speakers, but even more when it’s a backwater like Preston. They certainly don’t do this when white people are the victims.
It is quite obvious that the BBC feel they have found a ‘witch’ and are clamouring for their death. The ethnics involved clearly don’t believe it’s ‘racism’ but what so they know?
Even the headlines scream the guilt. “Preston judge race remark case shocks equality group”.
I wonder how long it will be before the Fascists of the left are calling for the death penalty for anyone accused of ‘Racism’.

The BBc food bank shite fest continues on the 22:00 news. Looking on the internet I found this. Ok it’s for Durham but I’m making the assumption You can receive food from the foodbank if you have been given a red foodbank voucher by one of our referrers. These include: •Citizens Advice Bureaux
•Jobcentre Plus
•One Point or Sure Start
•Housing charities
•Other local charities
•Drug and alcohol services
•Durham County Council Social Care and Health Services
•Health visitors
•The Probation Service. So do we believe that these organisations all do an in depth financial assessment or not. Of course the BBc don’t bother to mention how you qualify to get food handouts. . We then get he classic we throw away x amount of food complete with a lorry dumping what looks like not very much food at all. Probably much better if we increase the amount of food poisoning then perhaps. We even get a shot of “people” scavenging for food? Where these local people I wonder. Even the BBc admits Mr Taxpayer is forking out for this whether we want to or not. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-26369558. As I’ve probably stated before the 2 people I know who have used food banks were not in need they just decided to spend their money on other things. North West carry on the tidal wave of bulls**t. Complete with the man “who missed a DWP appointment” and had his benefit stopped so had to go to the foodbank.. Turns out he has a daughter so they would still get their child benefit. Of course there is still recourse to emergency payments. But the BBc line is that apparently no one knows about them. Funny when I worked at DHSS most people claiming did.
Apparently the ‘poor’ can’t pay for the TV, heat their homes or afford food on their miserable incomes.
Now who is it that supports a flat rate tax for watching TV, (‘mansion’ owners pay the same as hostel occupants)?
Who is it that supports high fuel prices, ‘to combat climate change’?
Who is it that supports high food prices, (a staple for The Food Programme and Country File)?
Who is it that supports a low wage economy by ensuring that there is plenty of competition by immigration for ‘bottom end’ jobs?
Beyond me, I’m afraid. Perhaps the BBC could investigate?
Spot on Jim – excellent points.
Incredibly the this story on the bBC News website somehow manages not to mention the linked anti Islamifcation protests that are spreading through Germany as reported in the DT.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-30380970

Sob story from Yolanda Knell Gaza struggling to rebuild after conflict or perhaps we should say half a sob story.
Missing: 1,760 tons of cement shipped to Gaza (Sunday) The Israeli liaison department at Erez crossing said that the largest quantity of cement, for Gaza reconstruction, in one day for years was shipped Sunday via the Kerem Shalom crossing.
Missing: Hamas confirms it is rebuilding fortifications. Israel accuses Hamas of diverting cement provided for civilian purposes to rebuild those tunnels.
Missing: Any Israeli response to the story.
Very interesting piece of news I picked up on, and I’m sure the BBC are saving for when they might need it.
It seems the DePfeffel chap was born in New York and has US citizenship which he has never given up (can we seriously have a PM with dual nationality)?
Worse for Boris though is that although he didn’t give up his US citizenship, he did give up paying US tax, and he’s now involved in something of a spat with the IRS who say he owes them quite a lot of money. (again is this the sort of thing a prospective PM should be involved in)?
Boris says he doesn’t owe the money, the IRS says he does so now he can’t visit the US for fear of arrest !
Certainly the thought of a PM who could screw the country up, and then run away to live in another doesn’t strike me as a good idea.
http://www.forbes.com/sites/robertwood/2014/11/25/londons-boris-johnson-gets-help-in-irs-fight/
This is fairly widely known news so my assumption is that as the Tories see Boris as a vote winner, the Left see him as a threat, and they are keeping their powder dry on this, until its use becomes damaging.
Apologies if this is a double post but it seems to have disappeared.
EU foreign policy chief Federica Mogherini says essentially nothing while Lyse Doucet looks admiringly on. Mogherini: ‘EU can play a role’ against Islamic State
The role the EU can play is apparently following the UN’s lead (when and if that happens). Given that the UN has no troops and needs to request them from it’s members, Mogherini’s promise that in the course of her 5 year term she will talk to every EU member state about forming a joint policy must leave both Assad and ISIS quivering in their boots.
Makes one wonder if we will miss Catherine Ashton?
Al Beeb are more concerned with the UKIP impropriety and the Dewani murder case than on the threat to West Midlands Police. “The fact that officers have been called back to return to base, and also that they’ve been asked to watch out for each other when they are actually out on patrol.”
Its probably those damn ‘men’ again ?
http://news.sky.com/story/1388316/west-midlands-police-ordered-back-to-base
Be interesting to see who Dave & Theresa ban on this one, previous Danegeld conciliation efforts clearly having worked so well.
Not a job I would touch with a bargepole, but the way it is being reported the notion of law enforcement heading back to the station in face of threat sounds a bit ass-backwards.
In a target-rich environment, secondaries may be found. Wouldn’t fancy being a traffic warden today.
Another from the telegraph which deserves a wider reading,
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/danielhannan/100260720/whenever-you-mention-fascisms-socialist-roots-left-wingers-become-incandescent-why/
And the connection to our lords and masters ? The paragraph where the BBCs response to a complaint about calling the Mexican Government, a member of the Socialist International, named ‘ the Institutional Revolutionary Party ‘ right wing. Was quote ‘trying to get across was that it is authoritarian ‘
Left wing = good. right wing = bad, authoritarian, except of course when it’s the other way around. Dear God Mr Orwell, can you please try and stop spinning in your grave.

OT
I have a story that needs to be fed to some journalists. Which are favourable to UKIP ? – I can think only of Delingpole and maybe Leo McKinstry at the Express and Simon Heffer ?
Any suggestions ?
If the journo is known to be favorable, the value of story (presuming it to be news, not pr) would be tainted.
What you need is ruthlessly objective, and one can sympathise with the problem this search presents.
What is ‘not news'( (c) A. Newsroom Tealady ) is pervasive.
Interestingly, in other, what is news, Ed has made a daily pledge the BBC has got excited about.
Details on how to be funded of course not worthy of too close analysis.
The whole point is to get the matter published – out in the open, If it is FACTUAL (which this one is) how can it be tainted ?
We are in a hurry on this, we cannot be picky !
Here’s an interesting piece of BBC writing – an interesting article about the first tattooist in Scotland… I was reading it and came across this
“Prince Vallar is said to have been born Patrick Henson in Derry, Ireland, in 1888. ”
So the BBC has decided to make a sectarian statement in a BBC Scotland article. I thought that they were not permitted to do so because of their watertight charter commitments….
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-30384611
I wonder what on earth is going on in the West Midlands? The BBC has managed a short item on its website that contains absolutely no information about the threat itself.
‘Men’ at work?
The story appeared on Sky web page last night way before the BBc I took a wild guess about what the non-informative story was. Guess what I was right.
‘Austerity is the enemy of the arts’
BBC tv news delivered that zinger of an electioneering slogan this morning just before 8am.
They managed to tag this slogan on to a longish report about spending ‘cuts’ that ‘might’ or ‘may’ have put the future of the Ulster Orchestra under threat.
Hyperbole…? Not us guv!
In fact ‘the news where you are’ arrived a couple of minutes late this morning and was cut very short – perhaps to make way for the story.
I think the slogan is so very good that it is bound to be taken up elsewhere on the BBC, in the Guardian and like-minded minority press and by the Labour Party and other leftist groups.
Just a reminder : ‘Austerity is the enemy of the arts’
As Shaw Taylor used to say : ‘Keep ’em peeled’
Sofa bunny bookend Bill Turnbull informs me today:
‘ the weather is very dramatic’
There was me thinking weather reports were largely an informative item. Gosh, now that I know that the BBC regard their weather forcasts as part of their entertainment portfolio – start thinking along those lines and in a way they could be regarded as a small segment of ‘the arts’. Wow, I do hope it’s not another case of their ‘may’ or ‘might’ be under threat. Afterall ‘Austerity is the enemy of the arts’. What on earth would I do for a bit of drama in my life if I can’t hear what weather to expect?
Yeah, and Lottery Funding is the White Knight against the enemy of the arts.
BBC World News getting its audience in India worked up with a story about the gov banning Uber for the alleged offences of one of its drivers.
Have to say the BBC does seem keen on draconian cross-corporate precautionary censure and punishment for sexual abuses.
Unless in camper vans in the company capark, presumably.
Have to say when it comes to the employer potential liability stakes in this regard a certain national broadcaster, having a popular music wireless channel going under the designation of the integer before two and after zero, would seem to be the uber candidate.
Looks like the thread has got completely out of order again.
