    “Whites have been persuaded to support diversity – even if it restricts opportunities for them and reduces their numbers and influence – because they have been taught that not to support it would be racist.”

    “Diversity, if it were a strength, people would not require ‘diversity management’ or anti-discrimination laws. Nor would it require constant reminders of how wonderful it is. It takes no exhortations for us to appreciate things that are desirable.”

    “It is precisely because it is so easy to point out the weaknesses of diversity, that any attempt to do so must be countered, not by specifying diversity’s strengths – which no one can do – but with accusations of racism.”

    Here’s Kevin Connolly on the World Service ‘News’ at 09:00 GMT pretending to understand murderous Arab motivation in the Arab-Israeli conflict:

    A big part of this is a deep, bubbling suspicion in Palestinian society…

    [Yes, a real cauldron; when BBC hacks try to get creative their ‘reporting’ is even more putrid than usual.]
    that Israel, which has the holy places of Jerusalem…

    [Oh, those grasping Je…er Israelis. In fact, the Arabs have the Al-Aksa mosque, as anyone who has seen Arab rioters hurling missiles at Israeli police from within the mosque can testify. Besides, a small child could Google ‘waqf al aqsa’ to ascertain who in fact has that mosque.]

    is secretly planning some kind of change in the access arrangement which would erode the Islamic identity of that holy place.

    [Which holy place is he talking about? He probably doesn’t know himself. Connolly doesn’t mention that the Israelis only restrict access to the Al-Aqsa mosque when Palestinians riot and commit acts of terror against them.]

    Now Israel absolutely denies that…

    [Five words for the Israeli side and nothing that would back up the denial.]

    but the denial, frankly, is not believed in the Arab world.

    [“Frankly??” How that one word solidifies BBC support for the for the Arabs as their leaders lie and incite against the Jews, with the fake claims of Jewish designs on the mosque directly causing the current spate of murderous attacks.]

    Connolly wouldn’t know how to report frankly on the Israeli-Arab conflict. To do that he would have to remove his anti-Israel BBC specs and look around at what is actually going on between the Jordan River and the sea.

      Try visiting the Al-Aqsa mosque if you go to Jerusalem. You’re not allowed anywhere near it. But it’s not the Israelis stopping you – the Arabs won’t permit anyone who is not a Muslin to approach it. Contrast with the Western (‘Weeping’) Wall or the church of the Holy Sepulchre – anyone is free to visit Jewish and Christian religious sites, no questions asked.

        Exactly right. I spent a whole hour in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre – there were several choirs singing ij different parts of the basilica – and a long long time near the Western Wall. Whereas atop the Temple Mount I knew – and it was made obvious, that any thought of entering the mosques was out of order.

            When Connolly started to speak I knew there was no way he would mention the well-known fact that the current wave of Arab terror (by both Palestinians and Israeli Arabs) is a result of the lie that the Jews have designs on the Al-Aqsa mosque.

            Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, spread the same lie in the 1920s, which incited Arab mobs to slaughter entire Jewish families in Hebron, Jerusalem and elsewhere. Back then racist, hate-filled Arabs couldn’t use Israel as an excuse for their ‘religious’ hatred.

            Now, of course, they can.

    Why is it that all the immigrant stories from Billy Butlin to the present lot, came to Britain with only a fiver in their pocket ?? its the same consistent story. My first pay packet in 1965 was £4.10.0d (£4.50p), and worked solid for the next 41 years, but no-one wants to hear that. But then, my name isn’t Patel, Khan, or Vaz either.

      I have a friend who came to this country in the early 1970s when their family was forced out of Uganda by Idi Amin. She said that they, like many others, arrived here with just the clothes they were wearing and the one suitcase. But, that one suitcase was full of money. They received little notice of their forced departure, but had expected it and prepared accordingly. Paying a bribe to a customs official at Entebbe enabled them to avoid inspection of the suitcase. It wasn’t a universal experience she states, but it was very common. Less a case of £5 in the pocket but £5,000 in the suitcase (at a time when that was a lot of money. They bought a house with it when they arrived).

    BBC rescues Britain’s seaside towns from economic decline. Hold the front page ! Ever since Green tripped over a stick of Brighton Rock, and punters dumped Margate for Marbella, el Beeb informs us life has come to a Full Stop on the seaside. Worse still “The surge in support for UKIP has been driven by seaside towns such as Grimsby in Lincolnshire and Clacton in Essex.” But fear not, one of the Beeb’s intrepid reporters has taken a trip to Folkstone, (all seats for planes to Brazil 2016 having been taken) and popped into Googies Art Cafe, ” a trendy burger and craft beer joint in Folkestone’s art district”- (where else would any self-respecting Beeboid scribbler go ?). From this Bohemian paradise he/she brings back the following pearl of wisdom from a waiter (apparently) “Folkestone has completely changed. For one thing, it has become a lot more multicultural. It used to be white, white, white. Eventually the town will be as trendy as Brighton.”

    So there you have it folks in Folkestone. It was your fault you were all in the crapper, you were just too white, but with a healthy dose of BBC multiculturalism you too can become trendy again. Brilliant !

    “Not a very exciting day of weather, I’m afraid”

    Elizabeth Rizzini brings us ostensibly good news about our weather prospects here in London today, but inadvertantly the winsome Liz has let slip that degree of regret she can’t promise even a bit of that funny weather weirding we often hear about.

    One wonders wether this hankering after heatwaves, droughts and tornadoes derrives from an innocent keeness to employ some of the more advanced aspects of her Met Office meteorological training or maybe it is just a desire to promote BBC viewing figures. I hope it is nothing to do with a political and ideological attachment to the theory of Man-Made Global Warming – Liz seems such an uncomplicated trustworthy sort.

        At the core (which is well understood by the Left’s puppet masters) is not a belief in any one of those things per se – in fact in candid moments they will occasionally admit they regard some of them as untrue) – but a desire to use any and all of those associated memes as a tool to break traditional society, so that it can be refashioned, post-collapse, into the ‘perfect socialist society’.

    Islamics are not a race. Anyone from any colour or religion can be or convert to Islam. It’s a religion. The conflict in Northern Ireland was not ‘racist’.

    The killings were not therefore ‘racist’ as described by the BBC. However, the Left would call this attack ‘racist’.

      It’s not just the BBC, sadly, The Mail (ever willing to face both ways at once) has joined in the chorus.

      I have no problem with the accused being described as a neo-Nazi, if that is really what he was, but I most certainly do have a problem with the story being used to promote the ceaseless liberal campaign about the ‘delights’ of immigration and the ‘evil’ of anything or anyone to the Right of Corbyn.

      My expectation is that the liberal media will now use this as part of its demonisation of conservative beliefs, while ignoring and excusing the behaviour of Islamists, immigrants and their political exploiters on the Left.

      ‘Islamics are not a race’. I am tired of pointing this out, but in the media, BBC, Mail etc. reports of offence against Moslems is reported as racist. Judges, magistrates, reporters all treat Islam as a race, a religion, a political and ethical doctrine, a charity, whatever they want it to be. That is what multiculturalism is about.

      The left, see their social media sites, are jubilant – the backlash theory is justified.

      From The Telegraph:
      With an ageing population, Europe’s share of the world’s population has fallen from 20 per cent a century ago to seven per cent now, and could be just four per cent by the end of this century when the world reaches ten billion people. “We are demographically weakened, and will remain so,” added Mr Juncker, the former Prime Minister of Luxembourg.

      I’d like the BBC to report that, it could explain why the EU wants open borders, just so that Junker and his kind can look ‘big’ at the international table. I would guess that most Europeans would rather be well-off and safe, not rubbing shoulders with 2 billion of the world’s poor, backward and violent.

    What on earth happened to Question Time last night? Usually I have to view this from behind the sofa, fingers twitching over the “off” button. The audience were respectful, there was no whooping or foot stomping and even Nigel received several rounds of applause. Now when did that last happen on the Big Brother Corporation? Of course Dimbleby was his usual smug self; interrupting Farage and allowing Alan Johnson limitless time to waffle about the delights of the EU. But the audience seemed to be made up of regular, “normal” folk and often Johnson’s well honed cliches and snide remarks were met with stony silence.

    But hey, that’s cultural enrichment for you – something in which the BBC has been complicit since the start. Must be very proud.

    And not one mention of the Religion of Peace in the item. Strange that, no?

      Ah but they have a line ready to combat this accusation against the RoP.

      They will state that most victims of FGM in Africa are from Christian families.

      As if two wrongs make a right in relation to this abhorrent practice.

        Did they mention how many have been prosecuted for FGM? Another example of our parallel law system.

      I listened to that too, not one mention of the word Islam or Muslim in the entire programme. We were told by one woman that it happens all over the country as if it were a ‘British’ cultural thing. There was an awkward silence when in all fairness another woman said ‘that immigrants have moved all over the country’.
      Next week it will be about the mysterious floating suitcases with dismembered bodies inside floating down the Thames, is this a British throw back to Jack the Ripper!

    Any examples of enrichment?
    However, I expect immigrants to assimilate and become part of British society. I’m not interested in their ‘enrichment’.
    The term ‘enrichment’ is used as there is no assimilation.

      Place like that, awash with money, what could possibly go wrong?

      Problem is, if something does go wrong (not that it will, of course, definitely not), we won’t get to hear about it anyway. Could inflame ‘tension’ you see, and cause a ‘backlash’ of rude graffiti, and Cameron has made it clear that he will not tolerate that sort of thing.

      In that clip we see a grinning charity woman saying that the “asylum seekers” include people from all over – such as Albania and Kosovo.

      How the hell can anyone from Kosovo or Albania have any valid claim to asylum ? They should be shipped straight back to where came from.

        Do you think if I roll up to US Immigration and demand to be allowed to go and live in Malibu, you know, just ‘cos, they’ll let me through, no problem..?

        No, didn’t think so, either.

    The politicians and BBC never mention the muslim backlash that has occurred in the UK and still continues.

    7/7 anyone? 50 killed. Failed multiple tube bombing to repeat 7/7 a few days later. Lee Rigby. Car bomb detonation at Glasgow airport. Attempted car bombing of a night club in central London.
    Many, many foiled attempts. And no doubt more to come.

    Here’s an MI5 Security Services list:

    https://www.mi5.gov.uk/home/about-us/what-we-do/the-threats/terrorism/international-terrorism/arrests-and-convictions.html

      I heard a report of a white Brit who whispered to a friend that he thought “some Muslims are not very nice”. If that isn’t a backlash then I don’t know what.

    The Indianization of the BBC…At http://tinyurl.com/p5dau3j
    If you watch the BBC World Service you may have noticed the large number of presenters with such names as: Matthew Amroliwalla, Yalda Hakim, Zeinab Badawi, Geeta Gurumurthy, George Alagiah, Mishal Hussein, Babita Sharma, Adnan Nawaz, Rajesh Merchandani, James Coomarasamy, Reeta Chakrabati and others. Actually some of these people are derived not from the Indian sub-continent and many of them are of Muslim origin, such as Badawi from Sudan or Hakim from Afghanistan, but the large number of such names indicates a pervasive influence of Indian and third world opinion in BBC News content. Certainly many of these presenters are very professional and indeed glib in their presentations, and their English accents are impeccable, but that does not change the fact that there is a disproportionate cadre of third world presenters at the BBC.
    Why is there this prevalence of Indians and third worlders at the BBC? Certainly it is because of the presence in the UK of a large number of people of Indian origin (including Pakistani and Bangladeshi), whose families emigrated to the UK during the period of English control of India and other former Empire countries since then. But, it must also indicate a degree of bringing in members of the same culture once inroads are made (Jews were always criticized for this tendency). Could this cadre of Indians be part of the reason for the very anti-Israel slant of the BBC in its reporting of the Middle East? Certainly, since they do exercise editorial control over the content that is included in BBC News broadcasts. Is this the main problem, probably not, since the presence of these many people of Indian origin is a symptom rather than a cause of the problem.

    When you have left-leaning reporters such as Lyse Doucet (who is from Quebec) and Orla Guerin (Irish) in leading roles in the BBC hierarchy, both of whom have shown clear anti-Israel bias when reporting from the Middle East, it is not surprising that a predominantly third-world viewpoint is presented that accords with the majority of Islamic and Indian viewers around Asia. However, there are very few African and Chinese or other Asian presenters, so this Indian presence does represent a bias in appointments at the BBC. Also, there are none or very few identifiable Jewish names on the BBC list.

    Here is a story about polar bears:
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-34490185
    Without even following the link you probably have an idea where the story is ultimately heading. At one point the question asked is:
    ‘What is driving this change in the polar bears’ behaviour?’
    The BBC has me stumped there, I wonder if they are able to provide an answer?
    Don’t bother reading it, you know the answer.

    https://tallbloke.wordpress.com/2015/10/23/westminster-debate-the-bbcs-relationship-with-the-met-office/

    “What I’d like to know, is how does the MetO get a debate with a petition of less than 300 signatures, when other urgent causes with tens of thousands of names on e-petitions are ignored?”

    Not a big fan of these e-petitions, but they seem a feature of life now, so I do pay heed even if the way they are conducted seldom suggests reality.

    Hence I too am now interested in what worked its magic here but not elsewhere.

    Some new variation of ‘unique’ or ‘not news’ ((c) A. Newsroom Tealady) no doubt.

    And what’s the betting there is some nifty exemption to anyone answering such a good and reasonable question?

    Noted that TWATO earlier on was promising me some crap about Labours “Big Mo”, what with Corbyn being so brill an` all.
    What?
    There was me thinking that people were resigning, MPs of long standing are scared of losing their seats/deselection…that they had no policies or went 180 degrees on them at the first whiff of Osbornes aftershave.
    Clearly not-Clintons Big Mo was going to be discussed later on in the show.
    Not that I bothered to listen on-utter crap.
    THEN I see that the New Statesman has an article in today, featuring Labours Big Mo…embalmed, dug up but there she blows!
    So basically the BBC does New Statesman audio books-booky wookies for the Occupy cabbages…and saves them buying that worthless rag of lefty lunacy.
    Bias-wha of it-the BBC just does at it likes.
    Imagine how dangerous they`d be if anybody actually listened to the BBCs “comment and analysis”, let alone believed in it?

      On the enemedia, the apologists, and useful idiots including the BBC
      “It is absurd. I had no intention to absolve Hitler of responsibility for his diabolical destruction of European Jewry. Hitler was responsible for the Final Solution to exterminate six million Jews.
      He made ​​the decision. It is equally absurd to ignore the role played by the Mufti, Haj Amin al -Husseini, a war criminal, for encouraging and urging Hitler, Ribbentropp, Himmler and others, to exterminate European Jewry. There is much evidence about this, including the testimony of Eichmann’s deputy at the Nuremberg trials, not now, but after World War II. He said:

      ‘The Mufti was instrumental in the decision to exterminate the Jews of Europe. The importance of his role must not be ignored. The Mufti repeatedly proposed to the authorities, primarily Hitler, Ribbentropp and Himmler, to exterminate the Jews of Europe. He considered it a suitable solution for the Palestinian question’.

      Eichmann’s deputy, added:

      ‘The Mufti was one of the instigators of the systematic extermination of European Jewry and was a partner and adviser to Eichmann and Hitler for carrying out this plan’.

      The attempt by certain scholars and people to be apologists … for the key and important role of Haj Amin al-Husseini, is clear.
      Many other researchers cite this testimony and others regarding the role of Haj Amin al Husseini.

      My intention was not to absolve Hitler of his responsibility, but rather to show that the forefathers of the Palestinian nation, without a country and without the so-called ‘occupation’, without land and without settlements, even then aspired to systematic incitement to exterminate the Jews.

      Unfortunately, Haj Amin al-Husseini is still a revered figure in Palestinian society, he appears in textbooks and it is taught that he is one of the founding fathers of the nation, and this incitement that started then with him, inciting the murder of Jews – continues.
      Not in the same format, but in a different one and this is the root of the problem.
      To stop the murders, it is necessary to stop the incitement.

      What IS important is to recognize the historical facts and NOT ignore them … not then … and not today”.

      Wonderful creatures – thank you for the video. I hope they enjoyed their lunch.

      And, of course, as anyone interested in big cats knows, the greatest threat they face is human beings, either by the spread of population and habitat destruction, or poaching.

      Still, I’m sure someone got a box ticked for adding ‘global’ warming’ to his grant application for that blatant lie.
