    You’ve got to laugh, the fat (white) twat who prevented that coloured gentleman from boarding that French Metro has been named as Richard Barklie the director of a human rights org. Yet the bbC doesn’t want people to know that snippet so report the story as link such
    An ex-police officer and Chelsea fan has apologised for his part in an alleged racist incident on the Paris Metro – but has denied he is a racist. Richard Barklie, 50, of Carrickfergus, County Antrim, was identified as one of the people sought by the Met Police. In a statement, he denied racist chanting and said he wanted to explain the context of the incident to police. Chelsea Football Club has barred five fans after a video showed a black man being prevented from boarding a train. Mr Barklie, an ex-Royal Ulster Constabulary and Police Service of Northern Ireland officer, is currently a director with a human rights organisation – the World Human Rights Forum – and has also worked supporting victims of the Troubles.

    Remember this:
    Lawrence memorial vandalised again

    this
    Youth quizzed over Lawrence plaque attack

    and this:
    Smashed glass bottle on Stephen Lawrence plaque in Eltham

    It seems the bBC has no truck with those who defile memorials to victims of racist attacks. But then again I wonder why they haven’t reported this:
    Charlie Hebdo memorial vandalised in Paris four times in two weeks

    Breakfast sofa sloths still running schoolgirls go willingly to join bloodthirsty murdering cult scum, although they don’t phrase it like that. On the good side once their child benefit is withdrawn Mr Taxpayer will be saving at least £13.335pw X 3 X 52 £2.082.60 per year.

      Sorry it’s actually £13.55pw X3 X52 = £2113.80. According to the Telegraph “Police questioned the three when their friend travelled to Syria, but they were not kept under watch by counter-terrorism officers as they were not thought to be at immediate risk” So nobody knew nobody suspected blah blah blah.

    Concerning these three little maids from school are we….

    If only the authorities had done more…

    How different the headlines might have been….

    BBC Today Programme: ‘Special Branch forced to apologise for harassing British Muslim community – later we talk to Nick Clegg’
    Daily Mail : ‘ MI5 snooped on teenagers emails’
    Guardian : ‘Tory Home Secretary embroiled in race scandal’
    The Sun : ‘Racebook Scandal’
    BBC1 News : ‘Labour calls for judge-led public inquiry’
    Panorama : ‘ The BBC has learned of possible Ukip link to GCHQ Racebook Scandal”

    Credit the guy for sharing, but I wonder if anyone will really take pause to review the Editors’ Log for certain truths…

    What the bBC didn’t tell us last night was that Rozanne Duncan was for many years a Tory councillor. They preffered to dwell on the ex NF associations of the other chap.

    More bias by omission.

    BBC Facebook headline:

    “One of the Chelsea fans involved in the #ParisMetro incident is a director of a human rights organization. He says he’s sorry”

    That seems very factual. Neutral even.

    Is it possible the blood in the water has elicited a certain degree of professional courtesy empathy?

      Sadly, the BBC audience not really taking the hint and the mob is baying.

      Careful what you wish for, Aunty

    Latest Somali islamic jihad threat to Britain.

    -Apparently hardly worth Beeboids mentioning it online on U.K sites, but report threat on U.S site online.
    In contrast, ‘Daily Mail’ has-
    “Somali terror group Al-Shabaab calls for ‘Westgate-style’ shopping centre attack on London’s Oxford Street and Westfield malls in Stratford and White City in chilling new video fronted by ‘English’ Jihadi.
    “Al-Shabaab has released video calling for attacks on Oxford Street.
    “Masked fighter also threatens action against Canada and the US.
    “The terrorist refers to the 2013 siege on the Westgate Mall in Kenya.
    “He claims they could bring armed terror to western shopping centres.
    “The terrorist on the 76-minute video has a very strong English accent.”

    Contrasting reports on:- Islamic jihadists and Australia.

    1.) ‘Daily Mail’-

    “The Islamist death cult has declared war on the world’: PM announces he will STRIP jihadists of their citizenship as it’s revealed THIRTY extremists have returned home to Australia from the Middle East.
    “Many Australians who fight for the Islamic State will be stripped of their citizenship, PM says.
    “More than 30 Australians have returned home after fighting for jihadist causes overseas, review reveals.
    “Dual nationals will be stripped of their citizenship, Mr Abbott said in a landmark national security address.”

    2.) Islam Not BBC (INBBC):-

    “Australia to toughen citizenship laws to combat terrorism”

    Beeboids: pro-Al Jazeera-Qatar; anti-Egypt.

    Given BBC-NUJ’s political partiality in this case, (including worktime demo at W1A), Beeboid ‘reporting’ cannot be trusted.

    “Alaa Abdel Fattah: Egypt jails activist-blogger for five years”

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-31583404

    Of course, Beeboid treatment of Muslim Brotherhood, differs from its treatment of some Chelsea fans.

    18:00 news BBC1 Girls go to join the cult still number 2 story. Probably faded slightly by the revelation Mps are apparently “self-emoloyed”.

    The 10:00 news & school trip to Syria slips to 3rd spot as BBc favourite pastime of bashing banks rises to 2nd story. BBc now run a storey about working conditions for migrant workers in Qatar!!? Why do we care? Video footage shows the squalid conditions they live in. Hang on a second aren’t these people supposed to be builders? Can they not just improve things by using their building skills.
