Next time you have to suffer the outpourings of some liberal appeaser going on about how nice Muslims are ask them how many they know. By that I mean know properly as in enjoying a genuine friendship not nodding and smiling at the person they buy their morning paper off (Guardian, naturally).
After a small moment of shock, realising they might be about to get found out, they will strive to regain their composure and claim to know quite a few. The killer blow can then be delivered – ask what their names are.
Have tried this a number of times now and it usually elicits the rabid response of the liar exposed.
Breaking news on RT that two people (Israelis?) have been stabbed to death in the RT building in Tel Aviv……………..meanwhile, at Albeeb HQ ,complete silence on today’s news as we all take half an hour to look at and absorb the flowers ,candles ,and Jim Morrison (yes, I know) posters left at the site of the last Friday’s RoP outrage.
But wait….we can all relax now because the bad guys have been killed !!!!
Somebody should tell these dimwits that there are THOUSANDS of mini-Saladins ready to take their place.
And now…..it’s the Knickerless Sturgeon Show. Or to put it another way – could anyone have done less in their first year as SPM? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-34733570
“It is a year since Nicola Sturgeon was elected as Scotland’s first female first minister” – yes, but what has she actually done in the first year?
“Ms Sturgeon finds herself dealing with two major domestic incidents as a bin lorry crashes in Glasgow, killing six people and injuring 15 more, and nurse Pauline Cafferkey is diagnosed with Ebola after returning from working in West Africa” – a bit boring, is this newsround or what?
“Ms Sturgeon had travelled to London to meet the Queen at Buckingham Palace” – zzzzzzzzzzzzz oh sorry did I miss something?
“The first minister unveils plans to tackle the attainment gap between Scotland’s wealthiest and least well-off school pupils.” – oh yes that old nugget about everyone is equal in the eyes of socialism.
“Ms Sturgeon appears on the Daily Show during her first official visit to the United States, where she undertakes a series of engagements in New York and Washington.” – and talks about the haggis. Whoopeedoo she’s great !
“She is also named as the UK’s most powerful woman in a list published by the BBC’s Woman’s Hour programme. The judging panel describes the SNP leader as “the woman of the moment”. – yes, but what has she actually done?
“Ms Sturgeon says there is no place for “bigotry and prejudice” in Scotland” – now that’s a funny one, they have hated the English for centuries !!
“And YouGov says that its analysis of data from about 30,000 Scots revealed earlier this month that out of 5,000 celebrities, Ms Sturgeon is “the most popular and widely appreciated living person” among the Scottish public.” yes, but what has she actually done? I know, I will google it.
Yes, I thought so. Fuck All.
Raqqa activists criticise ‘ineffective’ air strikes on IS
Well what a surprise ! You don’t compromise that lovely post office golden goodbye by bombing your benefactors little brain child do you ?
Because Europe is paralysed to dealing with corruption, possibly because so many political leaders are themselves corrupt, the BBC doesn’t even think of the back story behind ineffective air strikes, and that they could be intentionally so. Remarkable how effective the Russians can be though, when their leader isn’t under the influence of another country!
And now spineless Dave wants to join in with a show of loyalty to the Saudis, I hope to God he’s prevented from doing so, because we should not be using our military as a proxy for another’s ambition. I also believe that a blanket bombing in Syria will enable him to attack Assad as Saudi desires.
It seems that Mustafa the activist – if there is such a person – does not like the Kurds, does not like the Russians or Assad, and reports that the air strikes are killing civilians, which is what all air strikes against BBC favourites seem to do. I do hope Mr Mustafa enjoys his lunch at the BBC studios in Salford and I recommend a good curry house for him in Rusholme, Manchester which is probably where he lives.
Where the funds go and who is better targeted sort of discussed here, but outside the comments below a complete failure to address the spineless statesweasels there are embedded, who would slot a squaddie if the BBC told them to or they might get a nasty look from the Graun.
It has always puzzled me why the BBC make such a big thing about the RAF being prevented from bombing targets in Syria, and the government needing permission from Parliament before it can take action. If Dave was serious about tacking ISIS he could tell the Americans that we would take the load in providing air support for the Kurds in northern Iraq, where he has permission to act, and the Americans can concentrate on bombing the shit out of ISIS in Syria. The only conclusion I can come to is that Dave doesn’t want to do anything that might be effective, and the BBC are giving him cover.
The fact is that the half dozen Tornados, which is all the RAF can muster these days, don’t make much difference one way or another. Decades of defence cuts have finally made the UK a strategic irrelevance. Still, at least Call Me Dave’s getting a shiny new presidential jet like his best friend Mr Obama. Perhaps it will be called RAF One. That will make him feel like one of the big boys.
The PM is not getting a “new” jet its an A330 , Tanker , which the RAF designate a “Voyager” , the tanks on this model are not in the cabin area , as its also used for trooping flights , they are just refurbishing the interior . Its cheaper than constantly chartering a BA or Virgin aircraft, £750,000 for a overseas trip , the Royal Family will also use it . It will still be used for AAR sorties in the UK , when not, on its new VIP missions .
Well done, your uncle, he may tell you Andover’s were decommissioned in the 70 ‘s. At that time we had a lot more fast jets too. We had the Phantom, Jaguar, Harrier, & Buccaneer, with the mud mover version of the Tornado, coming on stream too.
Unfortunately he died at a young age while in his position at Northolt with a young family. Very sad. I certainly remember him working for the queens flight at the time of repatriating Princess Diana’s body.
Funny that because I read yesterday that a former IS comrade in Turkey was being informed that the Russian strikes were so severe that the leadership was heading for Mossel and instructing the underlings to remain and become martyrs (enforced martyrs that is).
Great to see that the BBC is having to close down some of its “services” including, possibly, the abominable news channel. Hope this is just the beginning.
Flying a flag at half mast can’t cost much !
Mind you there are so many days of remembrance that perhaps they should start making flagpole half size to save some money !
Our council has spent £200k filling in the bus laybyes that the council originally built, to make it easier for the buses. They also spent £tens of thousands on junction changes and then changed them back again. And I read that their Boris Bikes scheme (cost £1/2 million) is getting 5000 users a year instead of the planned 60000, and a new cycle hub built at a cost of £150k has not had a single user after 3 months.
So loadsamoney available for politically correct causes.
But I’m sure they will have to close some libraries and care homes because of ‘the cuts’.
The bBBC with its former site on Wood Lane (with its own tube station) and now at NBH (a stones throw from Oxford Circus) is obsessed with the virtues of taxpayer subsidised public transport and see the majority of us car users as evil.
Yesterday showed that the BBC could provide a real debate on a matter of the day. Refreshing and gives me some hope for the future.
The topic was the proposed extra Regulatory Powers to obtain web browsing history etc. and how it would affect our freedoms.
In the Left Corner was Rita Chakrabati head of Liberty. In the Right corner was Max Hastings.
Prerecorded responses were made by each. Neither met face to face.
I’m not going to dwell upon who ‘won’. That’s not the point. The point is that two sides were provided on a sensitive and topical subject. That’s what the BBC used to do well and they should still be doing.
If Guardian readers are divided on an issue the BBC take the debate seriously. If Guardian readers share the same opinion the BBC are not interested in debating it. The BBC idea of debate is two Leftists competing with each other over which one hates the Right more.
I read somewhere that Pakistan is the country from which internet search engines, receive the most searches (worldwide) for all of the most depraved sexual practices imaginable.
They are such a delightful people – maybe we could see if lots and lots of them want to come and live here, with us, in our country? Oh silly me! No need, we’ve already being doing that for the past 50 years.
Am I missing something? I thought this guy who has been killed in Paris was an Isis mastermind, but it seems he has been demoted to a ringleader. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34867615
I think a “ringleader” is entitled to compensation, five minutes silence and an Islamic Green plaque to be erected within five weeks…with , of course an option to blow it up as a kaffir artefact within 24 hours after the erection.
Whereas a “mastermind” gets ten minutes silence and a day off school, a home visit from Amnesty and/or Clive Stafford Smith, a chance to raise money for chariry when John Humphrys is off the commode…and a public enquiry into this unmerited death of a vulnerable European citizen..in fact, he`s Britani by inference.
IN both cases-he`ll get ten minutes on Last Word, as a person who tried to bridge build between Syrias sandpits and a BBC3 special featuring Iain Lee.
Oh-I see the Frog police implied that Muslimah suicidi-al bummer had Mr Semtex-al peadi as her boyfriend.
It was THIS unwarranted implication-accompanied by shouting across to the poor poppet in bad or imprecise French-that led our ladychum to haste her demise…bloody French seem to be crap with steaming Heinz syrup sponges, let alone the accompanying custard a la oiseau.
Gareth, Clive, Mikey and Geoffrey-let alone Cherie, Vera and the other caravanners of love…will no doubt be seeking compo to stuff in her emptied head, once they1ve coined it if for Matrix Chambers or local jihadi groups al cheridi.
Noting that the BBC continue to say that ten people will be banned from public office , after ballsing up and stiffing the economy in 2007/8
1. Liam Byrne
2. GORDON BROWN
3. Chris Leslie
4. Alan Johnson…well, banned for two weeks before he`s cuckolded or has a misery memoir to put out.
5. Fred the Shred
No other plonkers should be binned until these five get a reckoning.
Until then, we`d be better getting Camilla, Yentob , Paul Flowers and Sepp Blatter in as interin managers of the economy-even these four saddlebags in floral print bingo wings couldn`t screw the economy like Gordon and His Marinaders.
Let`s ask Danny Blanchflower and Richard Murphy to sign off on this.
I thought last night’s One Show was a complete farce. I would like to know how much of my licence fee was spent bigging up Rob Brydon, a legend in the BBC’s own lunchtime. Are you seriously expecting me to be impressed by archive footage of Rob Brydon at his drama class (they said they’d never heard of you) and and comments from his teachers etc. This sort of thing is normal for celebrities and people with talent. Unfortunately Rob, you don’t fall into either of these categories. You are a waste of couch space and a waste of my money.
‘…raised vigilance for a potential attack on U.S. soil’
Per BBC practice (and ‘Call me CaMo’), it was flagged on social media by a headline not reflected on hyperlinking, something like ‘Could it happen here?’.
Bizarre as even their own copy acknowledges it has, before, a lot.
BRISSELS
you are right. The journalist beast has evolved over the years into a behemoth. It is an industry now and the workers all salute the socialist flag and sing their shantys. When you think about it is seems a natural place for them. Shit does, after all, roll downhill.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-34871872
just how much do the BBC reporters know about terrorists and gun smuggling? Quite a lot it would seem. they are treading a fine line between reporting and conspiracy I would imagine. For investigative journalism read illegal journalism. Oh yes.
Hi folks, I’m in the process of setting up a blogging site aimed at critically analysing (and taking the piss out of) the pathetic and pointless Independent rag. It really is the most loathsome left-wing hive of vile propaganda I’ve ever seen. Here’s an appalling example of their puerile pro-Islamic poopaganda – if any example were needed.
Great start Alex-do tell me that this is YOUR spoof of them.
Surely to Allah, they didn`t REALLY say this…did they?
If they did-I pledge to get my 40p mini i crap-and try and match this spoof of yours…
A campaign to get a mandatory five minutes silence in schools and job centres and hospitals for the likes of our Belgian Mr Creosote who got his mix wrong yesterday…and to campaign to get Jihadi Johns ” My Sharia” pop song into the charts post-hummously!
Do the RSPCA care that Abu Izzadeen might have left his shitzu bitch home alone, I wonder?…eggy body language to follow.
Good luck with that. No doubt you’ll have more readership than the target of your pish extraction, which get’s the sort of readership figures it deserves.
Do the liberal media deliberately seek out the “right victims” of murders and atrocities?
Just asking because Nick Alexanders mums just been on Channel 4 News talking to Jacqui Long.
Utterly astonishing…talk of “not wasting energy on those who killed her boy, life is for living, smile and move on, a need for positivity”.
Now either she`s on the meds and the likes of Channel 4 take full advantage of the doped-up replies to be gleaned…or else these old hippies GENUINELY think that the death of their kids is preferable to examining the motives of Islamic scum who commit such atrocities worldwide.
She said that her sons life was a wasted life-but not a wste of life…or was it the other way round?
My God-like the deaths of journos and technicians last year-like many other parents and families chosen by the BBC and liberal media-this current generation of pollyanna CBT junkies on drugs maybe need Islamic State so they can actually FEEL something…their Lennon-type fantasisings are as far removed from being alive and reasoning away the murders that they are experiencing at home, as I can imagine.
WE have created an absolutely amoral, cowed generation who`d rather put their dead into a recycling bin than take on just why their kids are being “wasted” with great cruelty by the Islamic barbarians…and therefore upset the BBC.
Or forgo an appearance fee for spouting the chocolate fountains that they do.
Astonishing…really is!
The people I mix with and my family would want vengeance. No forgiveness and no mercy. That is the way of the world and always has been.
You are right. Post modern liberalism has destroyed their souls.
Can anyone explain to me this full-on stance of ‘solidarity’ ? yes I know its to show the bad boys that we aint gonna be beaten by anyone or anything, but REALLY, what exactly is the point of it ? Its hardly going to make one iota of difference that we stand ‘shoulder to shoulder’ with our neighbours, to those who want to go on a murdering spree; and this time next week it will be yesterday’s news, but I suppose its good PR for the cameras and the press. After the Je suis Charlie event, the nations leaders all marched arm in arm down the street, but it didn’t stop the Tunisian, Sharma or Paris attacks did it.
Yep- use of the word “Solidarity” stopped in 1981, as far as i`m concerned.
A siren call to Lefties-the evil kind, who use words like “xenophobia” ” Islamophobia” “Brits” and “homophobia”.
These are EU Common Purpose restricted codes that let Corby smile at Ming…Kinnock find s job for a Hari…that kind of Masonic mush that shows that they`re “rolling out” the unwanted EuroProject in full face of their own nations.
Soylen Green…Stepford…”What then is to be Done”?
When you hear them use Solidarity without a picture of Lech Walesa?..you know they`re Common Purpose Gramscian internationalist socialismus…and consign them to “historys dustbin”.
BRISSLES, ‘After the Je suis Charlie event, the nations leaders all marched arm in arm down the street…..’
The street which had been cleared of the peasants by security before they set up the low camera angles, to give the impression of standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the ordinary people who don’t have 24 hr armed security looking after them.
I’m sure even readers of the Raqqa Bugle and Goat Fiddlers Weekly were aware of this.
And not even risking a visit to Notre Dame nearby….not safe for them all, hence the nicked tealights and Hollande-backed Jim Morrison posters by way of “public solidarity”…
see what happens when God leaves your building?…West Africans line along the steps to scare you onto the Metro-where the Rai-Aye boys will be waiting with their Stanleys from kebab school.
Apparently they use shopping trolleys to barbecue their kebabs for sale-so they can run when their PSCOs waddle by with a permit enquiry…meals on wheels eh?
Still-I`ll be seeing that one in Kilometre End or Burqa Green very soon when I dare get off the Tube.
“Imagine No Possession”…of drugs…no wonder we`re all so sad and eggy with Allahs little hellpaz!
◾Prisoners should be placed according to their gender “as recognised by UK law” – usually as stated on their birth certificate
◾If a person has obtained a “gender recognition certificate”, they will have a new birth certificate in their “acquired gender”
Now, this ‘individual’ had not had any gender reassignment surgery so HE was therefore clearly a man, a seriously fucked up one admittedly. So, first of all, why do the BBC refer to him as a she? Even the headline states “transgender WOMAN” whereas it should so obviously read “transgender MAN”. Secondly, the prison authorities have followed the law implicitly, so where’s the story? Move along, nothing to see here.
I watched Look North (local BBC news in Yorkshire) tonight and this was the top story, it was reported exactly as per neilw’s post but there was no mention of what he was actually in Armley Jail for; there were also interviews with his boyfriend and shots of his supporters outside the prison and interviews with 2 of them, who were, as you can imagine, very strange fish indeed.
There was an interview with a woman from the Howard League, bleating about how the Prison Service and DoJ had got it all wrong with “transgender” prisoners blah, blah, blah.
All told – the type of story in which Al Beebus revels.
There was another far, far more important story in Yorkshire today – it was the top story on the local ITV news in Yorkshire (Calendar) and was covered in many national newspapers.
It concerned an Asian, Christian convert from the RoP in Bradford and how he was savagely attacked by 2 men, one with a pickaxe handle – the attack continued until some of his (Polish) neighbours intervened and the attackers fled in a car driven by an accomplice. The police are treating it as a “hate crime”, as he and his family have endured persecution since he appeared on a documentary which revealed his apostasy; which (because Islam is so peaceful) carries the death penalty.
This had NO coverage whatsoever on Look North – can you imagine the coverage this case would have had, if the religions were reversed?
I have noticed several instances, on our local BBC news, where stories which show Muslims negatively aren’t covered or are covered but with certain facts omitted: e.g. old soldiers attacked on their way to services on Remembrance Sunday by our Islamic visitors – not covered. Muslim rape gangs court cases – no names or footage of the scum walking into court.
I know that this is not the BBC…but in the cause of “solidarity” and compassionate journalism of attachment and advocacy”….I claim the right to say this.
For Channel 4 News and BBC News are in cahoots over all things that will see Europe hogtied( well, no pigs, but…) and handed over to Islams Deep Green blade.
Just saw Mary Beard( one of Britains leading public intellectuals sez Krishnan-compared to him perhaps) give her take on the fall of the Roman Empire.
Her specialism for Oxbridge innit?…or is it shoes and the older woman?
Apparently the Roman Empire did NOT fall due to unfettered immigration, collapse of borders, a collapse in their eurocurrency, debasement of their own currency, barbaric distracting sports, free state bread and entertainments, collapse of the rule of law, letting any bugger become a Roman citizen, pornography, collapse of the family, assaults on their own traditions and history, importing teachers who were treacherous haters of the Roman host, quixotic mad and inconsistent laws and parasites who acted against their home state, random atrocity and then acquittal and restoration into celebrities and public figures, debauchery of the senate, democratic shows being corroded from within and a war of attrition by Decians( Balkan Romany, Arabian bloodline) Germans over the Rhine and Goths, Vandals fomenting civil perpetual civil wars at porous and increasingly-negotiable borders…if enforced or defended at all.
And-utter contempt for an effete cruising decadent political class who changed emperors, divided a pointless empire into dissolute and incoherent regions and charismatic blowhards promising easier days, no need to get grumpy or fear the future. More exotic gods and larks togues barman…and have you heard who Trajans been seen with?
Oh, and a personal Jesus doll to join the others on the mantelpiece.
No, nothing like today at all eh Mary?…no read-across…coincidence and simplistic?
Snakes alive-she`s a Professor of all this?…studies it and refuses to draw any conclusions for Channel 4?
Never seen a better case of a fig leaf academic, a shroud of academic pretension…like the quangos, the politicos, the civil servants who studied with Mary-and media glitter banders like Krishnan and Arbeit Matt Frei.
Mad-literally mad…Enoch is right as much as he ever was…a REAL public intellectual…not that we`ll ever have that said by Channel 4 or the BBC
That Beard woman is a strange fish indeed, I suspect she knows full and well the reality but refuses to declare it publicly, probably for ideological reasons, or more prosaically, maybe funding.
Regarding Enoch I remember a left leaning journalist interviewing the late Tony Benn and casually dropping an Enoch was a racist type comment into the mix. To his credit Mr Benn stopped the hack in his tracks and put him right on that, unfortunately the myth continues.
Beard recently did the “what makes us human” feature on the Jeremy Vile R2 show. That’s basically all we need to know about the woman. Another left-wing crackpot and pseudo-intellectual. All she does is put a liberal spin on the Roman Empire and Al Beeb swallow it hook line & sinker.
‘Mary Beard… her take on the fall of the Roman Empire’
As far as the province of Britannia was concerned (if my history serves me right) swingeing defence cuts did for us.
You see we depended overmuch on a Euro-wide defence policy in those days and when the Euro-legions pulled out… well, it all got bit barbaric hereabouts.
Lesson there somewhere – don’t expect Krishnan or old Arbeit Matt Frei to look for it – they only march left, left, left….
I thought the Horrendous Hag had been exhumed from her resting place to continue yesterday’s attack on Hollande’s 3 month state of emergency. An effective measure to combat Muslim terror must really irritate. The reference to Cicero and the Cataline Conspiracy was because of Cicero’s “extra judicial killing” of the conspirators. They were Roman citizens and by law they could not be subjected to capital punishment. The wizened sage does not seem to grasp thst a state of emergency is a legal measure.
She is an excellent example of the kind of people that are in our universities and schools, teaching our students and children. The reason for the bias of Al Beeb’s staff and the naivety of our politicians who have never been in a real job or done a day’s work in their lives.
chrisH – Wow – I really love your comments, they just feel so informative although I can never quite put my finger on it – anyway, I’ll try to keep up with what is evidently drug-fuelled adjectivalism.. brilliant.
Absolutely right about Enoch, although local Midland rivalry prevents me admitting it sometimes.
Most kind Mr Beaker.
Forgot to mention the division of the Roman Empire into West and East-my equivalent surely is New Europe(Poland etc) and Old Europe(Germany etc)…it was done for administrative purposes, but it was too little too late-they`d already been paying off the Goths, Vandals, Huns and all manner of cap rolling insurgents who smelt death, decay and patchouli incense candles at the shrine of the latest Emperor who ran away and was stabbed in his front.
They at least had all manner of shades of Goth..visi, ostra etc…we con`t even sift a Sunni from a Shia, let alone their IS love banners…Black and/or Islamic Green only-but a bloody red footprint of Lee Rigbys heroic butchers may be an option yet.
To Beard someone takes on a new meaning now…
Re The Midlands-always a joy to visit and see the pictures of Bonham, Enoch and assorted Moody Blues and Roy Wood etc when I go to the pubs, even stars on the street.
Unlike Manchester-some much to be grateful for(c/o Mozza 1983).
I kid of course…but I still prefer B`ham to M/c…wherever you are up there in Englands heart( with the faintest sound still of manufacturing things that the world still buys!)…all the best eh?
Despite her views and what we think of them – or anyone else, its a bit ‘playground’ to get into personal name calling. You may have cheesy feet resulting in smelly socks and suffer from halitosis (buffalo breath), but we don’t know for sure do we; so ‘horrendous hag’ and ‘wizened sage’ is a tad OTT for someone you don’t personally know.
I think ‘horrendous hag’ and ‘wizened sage’ pretty much sums up this vile creature. One brief look (if you can bear it) and you are left in absolutely no doubt where this fucking hags allegiances lie. All it needs is a wart on the end of its nose.
Why haven’t the ‘real’ Muslims of Great Britain declared a Jihad against the ‘so called’ ISIS, who ‘have got nothing to do with Islam’ and are bringing their religion into sever disrepute ?
Over to you Al Beeb …………………
This Week descends from the sublime Col Kemp to the ridiculous Sheikh al Ga’alloway.
As Kemp points out large-scale ground raids would be effective against IS. What he is really saying, of course, is that the only answer to terror is counter-terror and the “quagmire problem” is also avoided. . This is borne out by the success of the anti-insurgency campaign in Malaysia. The families of the terrorists soon got the message when the heads of their loved ones were returned to them by post.The IRA were defeated by successful infiltration, the cutting of funds from the USA as a consequence of 9/11 and the final willingness of unionist militants to meet atrocity with counter-atrocity. Galloway contradicts himself the moment he opens his mouth. If there are indeed Muslims fighting ISIS in Syria why should Britons fighting ISIS in Syria radicalise “British” Muslims. Maybe what George is not telling us is that filthy unbelievers are not welcome in any form in Muslim lands. This should cut both ways.
Yes, there is a conspiracy (oops) of silence over the fact that the IRA were militarily defeated, or at least cornered – the only reason they made the decision to throw their armalites or whatever over the hedge was that they were forced to, or face humiliation and ultimate oblivion.
According to a number of documentaries I have seen, past members of the IRA themselves have stated themselves that the IRA were so infiltrated by our secret services that they were on the verge of giving up. They were killing each other. Recruitment was becoming a problem. Numbers of less than 200 members. Nobody could be trusted. They were in disarray,then unbelievably at this point, they were offered the golden package by a self serving Prime Minister. The secret services were apparently furious.
Britain surrendered and allowed the many murderers off scot free.
The counter insurgency campaign in Malaysia was successful, as was the one in Rhodesia (at least until the combination of British duplicity and South African betrayal kicked in). But is it really the case that the IRA were defeated – they went on to form part of the government with its ‘terrorist Godfathers’ considered laudered statesmen who get to shake hands with British Prime ministers and the Queen. The point is important: the appeasement tendency in the Establishment is so ingrained that there will be plenty of politicans in Westminster who would like nothing more than to sit down with, negotiate and surrender to IS. Even without the influence of their Saudi friends this will be the default position of many of them.
For the life of me I cannot grasp how supposed leaders have so little grasp of history, at least enough to learn from it. And so little appreciation of new, evolving realities.
Hitler wanted power and Lebensraum, but was part of a team pragmatic enough to recognise the limitations to its extent. Sadly initial success lead to a command structure that was not designed to encourage checks and balances. A bit like the BBC sack of rats.
Stalin was kept in check by MAD, and with conventional warfare, even with WMDs, that has sort of held major conflicts in check since.
Yet pols in the West still seem to think they are negotiating with the rational, with realistic aims. And ambitions to stay on this mortal coil to enjoy them.
For a start no one knows who is who or really what they want. Just a loose collection of nihilistic loser nut jobs united by but one thing seeking total global domination and the eradication of anyone not on board, from girl students to Ringo Starr.
All enforced by troops who are eager to die, do not wear uniforms and are not great fans of the Geneva Convention.
It’s a new ball game. Old rules do not apply. The BBC will only grasp this when a drug dealer gets past security with a bit more than Bacon’s marching powder in the rucksack to hand over to a Panorama researcher’s cousin.
It was the initial approach of Adams looking for a way out for the IRA that started the “peace process”. Previously Labour governments (who else?) had been eager to talk to the IRA, leading the IRA to think the British state thought the Bitish state was losing. There was no decrease in IRA violence. The “recruiting sergeant” argument against the use of hard power and covert operations is fallacious because most supporters of any movement are extremely fickle. When the Loyalist backlash got going and the nationalist population realised that “tit-for-tat” murders would be used consistently as a tactic, they very quickly made their concerns known to the IRA men in their neighbourhood. The fickle supporters of Islam in Europe, i.e. “moderate” Muslims know that their support has no negative consequences whatsoever. Even mild criticism is shouted down as “islamophobia”.
Did the BBC ever proclaim that it has “nothing to do with Irish nationalism” whenever there was an IRA atrocity ? Maybe “it has nothing to do with Catholicism”. Believe it or not, when I was living in Bavaria in the 80s , the local, ultra-catholic Volksmusik radio station was only too eager to churn out anti-English, anti-protestant, pro IRA propaganda. At least they did not get the idea of hiding explosives in their Lederhosen and matyring themselves.
“Believe it or not, when I was living in Bavaria in the 80s , the local, ultra-catholic Volksmusik radio station was only too eager to churn out anti-English, anti-protestant, pro IRA propaganda.”
I believe it. Bavaria’s capital, Munich, was an important centre for the Nazi party,
I never thought I’d say this but, well done BBC (well, Andrew Neil at least) for the storming rant on his introduction to This Week tonight. Go to Guido’s site to see it:-
I have said before on this site – Andrew Neil would make an excellent Director General of the BBC. The DG is formally “Editor in Chief” – and he has that kind of experience from his Sunday Times days. I reckon it would take him about a week to re-assert the doctrine of impartiality – or face the sack or being moved off-air.
He also had a lot of managerial experience – successfully steering SKY TV as CEO in its early days.
The tab will be a worthy bookmark, as these guys’ research puts the BBC to shame. On about £3,999,999,999 less and 19,999 fewer staff.
The trouble is whether the establishment wants to hear such stuff, or is equipped to grasp it.
One suspects a repeat of the last Whittingdale-chaired stitch up, where the main witnesses will be industry insiders like Steve ‘Cheque’s in the mail’ Hewlett, who saw and heard nothing like a BBC Gaza pro, so allll is about right.
Now, which is better? Unique funding loaded on the council tax, or ISP subs? Decisions, decisions…
BBc Breakfast . Moslems fear back lash according to the moslem council of great Britain. Moslem woman tells us how she was abused and it happens every other month. Then someone from ask mama who informs us that it’s mostly men 15 to 35 who abuse moslem women. Taqqiya from begging to end
Presumably, as it seems de rigeur to tell folk fears are unjustified and not allowed, there must be the crime of rightwingobacklashaphobia too?
Trouble is, the actual feared backlash still seems rare, and if it exists at all almost exclusively non sticks and stonesy in actual bodily harm, yet the BBC sofa bunny flava du jour (the discreditted one they wheel out like Mehdi Hasan, to ease tensions) has dedicated squads of activists trawling the Internet and the phone lines to log about sweet actual FA.
In Singapore a Muslima claimed on social media that an Ang Mo shouted at her on the MRT. Cue some rather blood-curdling stuff on social media from a fair few men named Mo. Being Singapore, some have tried to track down when and if this actually happened, as it is pretty cctv’d up. So far, no sign. So some are starting to wonder if this isn’t the start of stirring up the BS is what has until now been a pretty harmonious place, faith wise. Now who would see value in that? Maybe the new BBC station in their shiny new offices there might investigate?
Meanwhile, the streets, tubes, cafes, clubs, supermarkets of major cities continue to run red with the blood of people who can no longer ring the equivalent of Tell Mama for them. As it does not exist. And they can no longer speak. There may be a Pastor Niemoller metaphor in there.
Sorry tell not ask mama. Not sure how exactly any one would have known what this “victims” religion would be unless she dresses differently to go to the shops as opposed to the sofa. I’m also unsure how she would know the “attacker” had a 7 year old child. unless of course she knew her in which case I would have expected the slashed and overstretched forces of law and order to mount a full on dawn raid. http://gatesofvienna.net/2014/04/tim-burton-acquitted/
Would it not be possible for accredited spokesmen to appear on the BBC before events like Paris to explain what is going to take place and that it will be Nothing To Do With Islam? This would assure the local population and thereby avoid these terrible imaginary backlashes led by the imaginary Far Right which cause such imaginary distress to adherents of the imaginary Religion of Peace (TM).
BBC1 – News
Prime airtime, front and centre 8 10 am … has Fiyaz Mughal from Tell LIES, oops I mean MAMA
With some blown up (sorry) story, with an Islamic girl whose been “frightened to go out”? since
the Paris Islamic massacre … ahh! “Islamofauxbia” you see, lots of airtime, deeply concerned faces all round.
The MCB has gone po faced to give it laughable gravitas, don t know how these beneath contempt creatures
have the nerve
… the Al BBC … they re “all ears” and hypnotised with concern
More political strategy, from the political ideology that wears religious clothes.
I posted this a couple of days ago
“Ah yes! This political ideology Islam, always the same political reaction in fact it is overt political strategy
1st silence, gauge how the ground lies –
then damage limitation, that advert in the Telegraph/a proposed march etc–
then some chosen narrative usually “backlash”
and with that then of course … the rights industry angle Islamofauxbia … as regular as clockwork ”
Folks … Islamic simpering victim mongers strike again
“…it sems like, every other month I’ve a new story to tell on racism – I don’t know why, I seem to be a magnet for it”
Appalingly contrived item on BBC Breakfast just now with the usual suspects (pardon the islamophobic implication there) of Tell Mama and some presumably internet-active young woman. “Move out of the way, you terrorist” According to this young lady who was sporting the free-flowing red died hair and bright red lippy (de rigure for Twitter feminists) this apparently happens to her all the time in Lidl. Is this her going out in search of frozen fish fingers and islamophobia look or is her tv persona different? I would have thought she looked more like a Goth – the modern emo not the Roman Empire beating tribe (oh but the ironies do mount up) To this supposed attack she reckons she replies ‘Why not join me for a coffee and we can talk this over?” There’s a chat up tip for tongue-tied horny young lads – if you think you’re brave enough!
Our Naga Munchetty swoops in for the Victory Derbyshire sharp intake of breath award. “Aaaaaaoooooohhhhhh”
Does the BBC have a plan for X number of days after an islamist terrorist attrocity of N magnitude at D distance from home for B sized report on islamophobia?
This story is so full of holes, the girl has a shock of red hair, all the lippy, actually looks more Thai than Arab … is obviously a real internet activist
anyway … move you terrorist?
How would anyone know?, was she wearing a hijab? a burkha? an anti Israel T-shirt?
if she s just a quiet girl erm “Terrified” to go out, because? of Islamofauxbia? to Lidl? … patently absurd
because of reading BS on the net? … Tell MAMA s propaganda?
Beebot … “oooh that’s racist” “you were racially abused”
… NO IT ISN T BBC, and NO SHE WASN T. Islam is NOT a race how many more times BBC
and, anyway, saying terrorist isn t racism.
This again is political strategy to gain “victimhood”, and is deflection from said ideology
no more no less
This is a non story, trumped up by a questionable set up like Tell MAMA with the BBC s full backing.
You can still watch it … click on BBC1 live and scroll back to 8.10 am
Her claim was very obviously contrived – I’d be more inclined to believe her if she phoned me out of the blue and said I’d had an accident last week that wasn’t my fault.
More to the point of BBC bullshit was Naga’s fakey gasp in reaction to this girl’s fairytale.
Firstly, the item was set up as a report about islamophobia/racism (a juxaposition the BBC continually makes) so how come Naga was soooo shocked at the punchline? Naga was posing her showy concern.
Secondly, the payoff was rather lame and Naga’s reaction way out of proportion. With a gasp like that for this bit of banter over the frozen chops down at Aldi what is Naga going to do when actual racial expletives are hurled as a gang of white-hooded (oh the ironies) thugs actually throw some molotovs?
I have just switched on the TV and made the mistake of hoping that there may be some kind of decent news reporting on bbbc and what was I presented with……………..? Yes, you guessed it two islamic women wearing the half garb (niqab, is it?) to hear how they are fearing a ‘backlash’ from the native Christian population so the off button was immediately reached for.
However, I see that even in the wake of the most severe islamic atrocity for many, many years the bbbc is following it’s well tested policy of legitimising and ultimately blaming anyone else but islam.
I then started to consider as to what it would take to get the bbbc to actually see the world the the eyes of ‘normal’ people and start to deliver factual reporting without giving it an agenda first……Perhaps they may change their attitude if the bbbc studios were actually attacked and real bbbc people murdered and maimed… I wonder how the reporting might change then.
Oh and by the way do the bbbc have a policy now of ignoring Nigel Farage? He has made a couple of real statesmanlike speeches about this latest atrocity that have been completely ignored by the media
Oh, yes – Nigel is persona non grata with the BBC, unless they can find something bad to say about him and/or UKIP, or they think that they can embarrass him by having him on as a guest. He is a true statesman, and the BBC are scared shitless of him.
The BBC is very alarmed at the prospect of an upcoming UKIP by-election victory over Labour.
The comrades moved the motion in the Commons for the vote asap specifically so as to prevent a UKIP campaign building up any traction – Cameron has no dog in this fight other than his pro-EU bias. One like-for-like dud Labour MP won’t bother Tory Central Office – and the longer Corbyn limps on the better for Dave.
The BBC are happy to play their part with a Farage black out from the airwaves for as long as they dare.
This bias was so obvious back on 10th November – I was listening to TWATO in my car (on the way to a memorial service which is why I remember the date) reporting on Cameron’s just announced EU ‘demands’. Nigel was on and coolly and calmly dissected and demolished Cameron’s plans and arguments. He was followed by Tory Rees-Mogg trying to do likewise by whittering on about ‘thin gruel’…. So much so that I was looking forward to hearing Nigel’s comments later on the main TV news however I was only to hear about the thin gruel. It was as if Nigel had never spoken.
Your logic is flawed I’m afraid.
Frank (dont shoot I’m a moslem) Gardner has already been shot by savages, but simply morphed into a terrorists groupie….Stockholme syndrome personified.
So it wont work…..the more they suffer, the more convinced they will be it’s all tne fault of the extreme right.
While it would give me immense pleasure for your ideas to come true….it would change nowt.

Suck on that BBC.
I see the Nothing-To-Do-With-Islamists are at it again, in Mali this time, where they’ve taken hostages at the Radisson Blu Hotel.
According to the BBC, ‘Police have surrounded the hotel, which the gunmen entered shooting, and shouting “God is great!” in Arabic, a security source told Reuters.’ You know, I don’t think they need to translate any more. We’ve heard these words so often from the teeny-tiny minority of Nothing-To-Do-With-Islamists.
They’ll just be a bunch of alienated people from deprived communities suffering because of government cuts and at the end of their tethers, yet determined to pass the benefits of their cultural diversity on to the rest of us.
I’m sure Al-Beeb will soon be able to report on their disadvantaged upbringings and explain how we are all to blame.
Oops. So sorry. I was just taking the p*** out of the bBBC but then I read Edited Highlights below and discovered I was basically writing the truth!
This Mali story must have broken not long or even during the pro muslim piece I was bemoaning over earlier. If BBC staff can’t start making contact with reality soon it may well be time to introduce compulsory IQ testing at broadcasting house.
Female suicide bomber just going through a bad patch. Nice girl really, normal, getting good grades you know…but was ‘fragile’, ‘vulnerable’ you see. ‘She loved life’ too. Absolutely unbelievable.
Blaming the security services is a win-win situation for all parties. For the toddlers employed by the BBC it is a chance to express anti-government sentiment. It also promotes the false logic of ‘we couldn’t stop them this time so we never can so we should just surrender’, a sort of variant on Corbyism. But the government and security sevices themselves are keen to promote this agenda, the message being “if only we spent more on mass surveillance and spooks we could have stopped them…”
Another classic was Fergal Keene in a live broadcast last night at the end of the Ten ‘o’ clock news. He said that President Hollande had not listed to what he had told him about the alienation of French Muslims, and as a consequence France was now paying the price. The bottomless sanctimonious vanity of the man is such that he entirely forgot that he was meant to be simply reporting the news. He is convinced that his views are more important.
On a long drive down from the north east to Devon, I’ve been able to give Radio 4 some serious attention. The station’s content is nothing short of vomit-inducing drivel. I lost count of the amount of times “feminism” was mentioned. They must have been having a special on “strong independent women”.
A good discussion followed regarding interracial kisses and relationships on screen. Apparently, interracial relationships are much too rare on our screens and the reason is simple, according to the BBC. We’re a nation a racists.
The content of Radio 4 is pure propaganda. It’s not even good propaganda, just the same constantly regurgitated wet fart opinion pieces.
Adele, depressing tuneless and overrated dirge a la Sam Smith. What happened to upbeat positive music, something we need right now. All her songs seem to consist of is wailing about her lost loves, you need to lose a few pounds love…
It doesn’t surprise me that the BBC have jumped on this bandwagon, but why TF all this adulation? Sorry, don’t get it
The origins of contemporary popular music are in the Southern States of America, where they sang about real suffering (slavery) deep spiritual convictions (Christianity) and actual hardship (folk songs) and these were repackaged post-war as light entertainment by Elvis and The Beatles and their like. That re-packaging has been mined out, but there is no bedrock to go back to except the narcissism of the selfish whining monkey generation who face no real racism, have no deep spiritual convictions, and suffer no actual hardship, but cannot allow themselves (because the cultural relativists have declared that pop is high art) to have mindless fun, and so what you get as a result is tedious Guardian reader political polemics or emotionally incontinent dirges about arguments they had with their boyfriend who has nice cheekbones but will sex on tap not commit.
Euro Parliament areas shut down ?
Reports are emerging on Twitter that the Rue du Parnasse near the Place du Luxembourg has been evacuated and cordoned off this morning, with armed police responding to a suspicious “red van”.
I really think it is now a time for true conservative voices to be mostly silent. The situation in Europe and in other parts of the world is deteriorating daily. Our current leaders are in denial and no longer fit for their jobs. The MSM is almost laughable in it’s inability to report and face up to reality.
The real effects of the Paris massacre ( that is what it was ) will take time to be felt. Although the usual 2 year delay now seems to be shortening with the increasing pace of events.
This will have to be dealt with by us the people of Europe. It will be new men and women who will have to do it and at present they are unknown. This is always the way when an exisitential crisis occurs.
So little is gained by listening to the current leadership and media elite and less is gained by allowing their idiocy to affect us.
MY fear is that so bizarre is the useless current leadership that it will attempt to destroy those who will need to take control as this elite fears for it’s future and its’ privileges and wealth. This current leadership lacks that most vital of attributes. It does not love it’s people and it’s culture but rather despises it. It is not rooted in the land. It no longer understands what the word nation really means. As to freedom to them is is an obsolete word.
Think of us conservative Europeans as being under a form of occupation. We are going to have to act carefully and with intelligence. But that we are the necessary future I have no doubt.
The story on BBc Breakfast is still bugging me so I’ve sent a complaint “This morning on Breakfast you ran a story on so called Islamophobia. I am interested to know if the young lady’s story of abuse was verified by anyone else? ”
See what comes back
Watching Daily Politics and….no Andrew Neil? His piece last night on This Week, seen on Guido and now on the Bbc website, was excellent. Just a whole load of common sense; unfortunately it would seem the powers-that-be didn’t like it! Now why doesn’t that surprise me? Has he been sacked? what’s going on?
He usually takes Friday and Monday off because he does a late Thursday shift (This Week) and does Sundays too (Sunday Politics).
Brillo said a few things that needed saying last night, for sure, but its only news because so few of our highly paid sofa sitters ever say anything worth listening to. Why JoCo isn’t working I don’t know, but James Landale hasn’t got the maturity to fit his telegenic accent and visage, so the DP today is ‘thin gruel’ thus far (half way in). A fee for the hypocrite’s hypocrite, Guardianista money tree and spitting enthusiast, the privately educated anti-grammar school Zoe Williams, and a new NTDWI guy from the ‘Economist Newspaper’ – Facepalm.
And we have a ……… Labour Party analysis. More air heads talking in their bubble.
I have just seen this quote on the bBBc website focussed on General Franco. Interesting that they accuse fascist of doing what they themselves do.
‘Spain’s Gen Francisco Franco fought a brutal war against democracy with the aid of Hitler and Mussolini and thereafter presided over a regime of state terror and national brainwashing through the controlled media and the state education system.’
Cynically I think Brillo’s rant was scripted for him and OK’d by the BBC, for what reason I hear you ask? Because if questioned in future about their pro Islamic stance, they can always use this outburst to prove ‘otherwise’. I call on Andrew O’Neill M’Lord….
It wasn’t unscripted and I don’t believe the program is live, it was known well in advance what was being broadcast.
Two explosions in London over the last 24 hours and not a single peep on the BBC about them.
One outside Baker street station last night, claimed as a ‘controlled explosion’, a second in a Café Nero again described as a controlled explosion, yet witnesses were tweeting that these both went off prior to security forces arriving.
Mrs Dave went to Leeds yesterday via Manchester Victoria for a meeting on the train. As I was picking her up from the local station I was sort of watching the situation. All I saw was a tree down on the line, nothing else. Today Mrs Dave pointed me to this http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-158044/Hoax-bomb-threat-clears-city-centre.html abo

I also half heard a story from the Police just before saying that armed response teams would be cut down if an event happened here as they would be out gunned by terrorists with automatic weapons. As far as I’m aware the HK MP3 is in usage which even in a civilian version is semi automatic . The HK MP5 is also used by GSG 9 . Also firing an AK on full auto isn’t very accurate and burns through ammo.

Next time you have to suffer the outpourings of some liberal appeaser going on about how nice Muslims are ask them how many they know. By that I mean know properly as in enjoying a genuine friendship not nodding and smiling at the person they buy their morning paper off (Guardian, naturally).
After a small moment of shock, realising they might be about to get found out, they will strive to regain their composure and claim to know quite a few. The killer blow can then be delivered – ask what their names are.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-politics-34733570
“It is a year since Nicola Sturgeon was elected as Scotland’s first female first minister” – yes, but what has she actually done in the first year?
“Ms Sturgeon finds herself dealing with two major domestic incidents as a bin lorry crashes in Glasgow, killing six people and injuring 15 more, and nurse Pauline Cafferkey is diagnosed with Ebola after returning from working in West Africa” – a bit boring, is this newsround or what?
“Ms Sturgeon had travelled to London to meet the Queen at Buckingham Palace” – zzzzzzzzzzzzz oh sorry did I miss something?
“The first minister unveils plans to tackle the attainment gap between Scotland’s wealthiest and least well-off school pupils.” – oh yes that old nugget about everyone is equal in the eyes of socialism.
“Ms Sturgeon appears on the Daily Show during her first official visit to the United States, where she undertakes a series of engagements in New York and Washington.” – and talks about the haggis. Whoopeedoo she’s great !
“She is also named as the UK’s most powerful woman in a list published by the BBC’s Woman’s Hour programme. The judging panel describes the SNP leader as “the woman of the moment”. – yes, but what has she actually done?
“Ms Sturgeon says there is no place for “bigotry and prejudice” in Scotland” – now that’s a funny one, they have hated the English for centuries !!
“And YouGov says that its analysis of data from about 30,000 Scots revealed earlier this month that out of 5,000 celebrities, Ms Sturgeon is “the most popular and widely appreciated living person” among the Scottish public.” yes, but what has she actually done? I know, I will google it.

Raqqa activists criticise ‘ineffective’ air strikes on IS
Well what a surprise ! You don’t compromise that lovely post office golden goodbye by bombing your benefactors little brain child do you ?
Because Europe is paralysed to dealing with corruption, possibly because so many political leaders are themselves corrupt, the BBC doesn’t even think of the back story behind ineffective air strikes, and that they could be intentionally so. Remarkable how effective the Russians can be though, when their leader isn’t under the influence of another country!
And now spineless Dave wants to join in with a show of loyalty to the Saudis, I hope to God he’s prevented from doing so, because we should not be using our military as a proxy for another’s ambition. I also believe that a blanket bombing in Syria will enable him to attack Assad as Saudi desires.

It seems that Mustafa the activist – if there is such a person – does not like the Kurds, does not like the Russians or Assad, and reports that the air strikes are killing civilians, which is what all air strikes against BBC favourites seem to do. I do hope Mr Mustafa enjoys his lunch at the BBC studios in Salford and I recommend a good curry house for him in Rusholme, Manchester which is probably where he lives.

It has always puzzled me why the BBC make such a big thing about the RAF being prevented from bombing targets in Syria, and the government needing permission from Parliament before it can take action. If Dave was serious about tacking ISIS he could tell the Americans that we would take the load in providing air support for the Kurds in northern Iraq, where he has permission to act, and the Americans can concentrate on bombing the shit out of ISIS in Syria. The only conclusion I can come to is that Dave doesn’t want to do anything that might be effective, and the BBC are giving him cover.
What have I missed?

The BBC ‘One Show’ last night.
Yesterday showed that the BBC could provide a real debate on a matter of the day. Refreshing and gives me some hope for the future.
The topic was the proposed extra Regulatory Powers to obtain web browsing history etc. and how it would affect our freedoms.
In the Left Corner was Rita Chakrabati head of Liberty. In the Right corner was Max Hastings.
Prerecorded responses were made by each. Neither met face to face.
I’m not going to dwell upon who ‘won’. That’s not the point. The point is that two sides were provided on a sensitive and topical subject. That’s what the BBC used to do well and they should still be doing.

Noting that the BBC continue to say that ten people will be banned from public office , after ballsing up and stiffing the economy in 2007/8
1. Liam Byrne
2. GORDON BROWN
3. Chris Leslie
4. Alan Johnson…well, banned for two weeks before he`s cuckolded or has a misery memoir to put out.
5. Fred the Shred
No other plonkers should be binned until these five get a reckoning.
Until then, we`d be better getting Camilla, Yentob , Paul Flowers and Sepp Blatter in as interin managers of the economy-even these four saddlebags in floral print bingo wings couldn`t screw the economy like Gordon and His Marinaders.
Let`s ask Danny Blanchflower and Richard Murphy to sign off on this.

I thought last night’s One Show was a complete farce. I would like to know how much of my licence fee was spent bigging up Rob Brydon, a legend in the BBC’s own lunchtime. Are you seriously expecting me to be impressed by archive footage of Rob Brydon at his drama class (they said they’d never heard of you) and and comments from his teachers etc. This sort of thing is normal for celebrities and people with talent. Unfortunately Rob, you don’t fall into either of these categories. You are a waste of couch space and a waste of my money.

Do the liberal media deliberately seek out the “right victims” of murders and atrocities?
Just asking because Nick Alexanders mums just been on Channel 4 News talking to Jacqui Long.
Utterly astonishing…talk of “not wasting energy on those who killed her boy, life is for living, smile and move on, a need for positivity”.
Now either she`s on the meds and the likes of Channel 4 take full advantage of the doped-up replies to be gleaned…or else these old hippies GENUINELY think that the death of their kids is preferable to examining the motives of Islamic scum who commit such atrocities worldwide.
She said that her sons life was a wasted life-but not a wste of life…or was it the other way round?
My God-like the deaths of journos and technicians last year-like many other parents and families chosen by the BBC and liberal media-this current generation of pollyanna CBT junkies on drugs maybe need Islamic State so they can actually FEEL something…their Lennon-type fantasisings are as far removed from being alive and reasoning away the murders that they are experiencing at home, as I can imagine.
WE have created an absolutely amoral, cowed generation who`d rather put their dead into a recycling bin than take on just why their kids are being “wasted” with great cruelty by the Islamic barbarians…and therefore upset the BBC.
Or forgo an appearance fee for spouting the chocolate fountains that they do.

◾Prisoners should be placed according to their gender “as recognised by UK law” – usually as stated on their birth certificate
◾If a person has obtained a “gender recognition certificate”, they will have a new birth certificate in their “acquired gender”
Now, this ‘individual’ had not had any gender reassignment surgery so HE was therefore clearly a man, a seriously fucked up one admittedly. So, first of all, why do the BBC refer to him as a she? Even the headline states “transgender WOMAN” whereas it should so obviously read “transgender MAN”. Secondly, the prison authorities have followed the law implicitly, so where’s the story? Move along, nothing to see here.

I watched Look North (local BBC news in Yorkshire) tonight and this was the top story, it was reported exactly as per neilw’s post but there was no mention of what he was actually in Armley Jail for; there were also interviews with his boyfriend and shots of his supporters outside the prison and interviews with 2 of them, who were, as you can imagine, very strange fish indeed.
There was an interview with a woman from the Howard League, bleating about how the Prison Service and DoJ had got it all wrong with “transgender” prisoners blah, blah, blah.
All told – the type of story in which Al Beebus revels.
There was another far, far more important story in Yorkshire today – it was the top story on the local ITV news in Yorkshire (Calendar) and was covered in many national newspapers.
It concerned an Asian, Christian convert from the RoP in Bradford and how he was savagely attacked by 2 men, one with a pickaxe handle – the attack continued until some of his (Polish) neighbours intervened and the attackers fled in a car driven by an accomplice. The police are treating it as a “hate crime”, as he and his family have endured persecution since he appeared on a documentary which revealed his apostasy; which (because Islam is so peaceful) carries the death penalty.
This had NO coverage whatsoever on Look North – can you imagine the coverage this case would have had, if the religions were reversed?
I have noticed several instances, on our local BBC news, where stories which show Muslims negatively aren’t covered or are covered but with certain facts omitted: e.g. old soldiers attacked on their way to services on Remembrance Sunday by our Islamic visitors – not covered. Muslim rape gangs court cases – no names or footage of the scum walking into court.
The BBC is rotten, from the top to bottom.

Just saw Mary Beard( one of Britains leading public intellectuals sez Krishnan-compared to him perhaps) give her take on the fall of the Roman Empire.
Her specialism for Oxbridge innit?…or is it shoes and the older woman?
Apparently the Roman Empire did NOT fall due to unfettered immigration, collapse of borders, a collapse in their eurocurrency, debasement of their own currency, barbaric distracting sports, free state bread and entertainments, collapse of the rule of law, letting any bugger become a Roman citizen, pornography, collapse of the family, assaults on their own traditions and history, importing teachers who were treacherous haters of the Roman host, quixotic mad and inconsistent laws and parasites who acted against their home state, random atrocity and then acquittal and restoration into celebrities and public figures, debauchery of the senate, democratic shows being corroded from within and a war of attrition by Decians( Balkan Romany, Arabian bloodline) Germans over the Rhine and Goths, Vandals fomenting civil perpetual civil wars at porous and increasingly-negotiable borders…if enforced or defended at all.
And-utter contempt for an effete cruising decadent political class who changed emperors, divided a pointless empire into dissolute and incoherent regions and charismatic blowhards promising easier days, no need to get grumpy or fear the future. More exotic gods and larks togues barman…and have you heard who Trajans been seen with?
Oh, and a personal Jesus doll to join the others on the mantelpiece.
No, nothing like today at all eh Mary?…no read-across…coincidence and simplistic?
Snakes alive-she`s a Professor of all this?…studies it and refuses to draw any conclusions for Channel 4?
Never seen a better case of a fig leaf academic, a shroud of academic pretension…like the quangos, the politicos, the civil servants who studied with Mary-and media glitter banders like Krishnan and Arbeit Matt Frei.

That Beard woman is a strange fish indeed, I suspect she knows full and well the reality but refuses to declare it publicly, probably for ideological reasons, or more prosaically, maybe funding.
Regarding Enoch I remember a left leaning journalist interviewing the late Tony Benn and casually dropping an Enoch was a racist type comment into the mix. To his credit Mr Benn stopped the hack in his tracks and put him right on that, unfortunately the myth continues.

An effective measure to combat Muslim terror must really irritate. The reference to Cicero and the Cataline Conspiracy was because of Cicero’s “extra judicial killing” of the conspirators. They were Roman citizens and by law they could not be subjected to capital punishment. The wizened sage does not seem to grasp thst a state of emergency is a legal measure.

Most kind Mr Beaker.
Forgot to mention the division of the Roman Empire into West and East-my equivalent surely is New Europe(Poland etc) and Old Europe(Germany etc)…it was done for administrative purposes, but it was too little too late-they`d already been paying off the Goths, Vandals, Huns and all manner of cap rolling insurgents who smelt death, decay and patchouli incense candles at the shrine of the latest Emperor who ran away and was stabbed in his front.
They at least had all manner of shades of Goth..visi, ostra etc…we con`t even sift a Sunni from a Shia, let alone their IS love banners…Black and/or Islamic Green only-but a bloody red footprint of Lee Rigbys heroic butchers may be an option yet.
To Beard someone takes on a new meaning now…

This Week descends from the sublime Col Kemp to the ridiculous Sheikh al Ga’alloway.
As Kemp points out large-scale ground raids would be effective against IS. What he is really saying, of course, is that the only answer to terror is counter-terror and the “quagmire problem” is also avoided. . This is borne out by the success of the anti-insurgency campaign in Malaysia. The families of the terrorists soon got the message when the heads of their loved ones were returned to them by post.The IRA were defeated by successful infiltration, the cutting of funds from the USA as a consequence of 9/11 and the final willingness of unionist militants to meet atrocity with counter-atrocity. Galloway contradicts himself the moment he opens his mouth. If there are indeed Muslims fighting ISIS in Syria why should Britons fighting ISIS in Syria radicalise “British” Muslims. Maybe what George is not telling us is that filthy unbelievers are not welcome in any form in Muslim lands. This should cut both ways.

According to a number of documentaries I have seen, past members of the IRA themselves have stated themselves that the IRA were so infiltrated by our secret services that they were on the verge of giving up. They were killing each other. Recruitment was becoming a problem. Numbers of less than 200 members. Nobody could be trusted. They were in disarray,then unbelievably at this point, they were offered the golden package by a self serving Prime Minister. The secret services were apparently furious.
Britain surrendered and allowed the many murderers off scot free.
Tony Blair has a lot to answer for.

The counter insurgency campaign in Malaysia was successful, as was the one in Rhodesia (at least until the combination of British duplicity and South African betrayal kicked in). But is it really the case that the IRA were defeated – they went on to form part of the government with its ‘terrorist Godfathers’ considered laudered statesmen who get to shake hands with British Prime ministers and the Queen. The point is important: the appeasement tendency in the Establishment is so ingrained that there will be plenty of politicans in Westminster who would like nothing more than to sit down with, negotiate and surrender to IS. Even without the influence of their Saudi friends this will be the default position of many of them.

For the life of me I cannot grasp how supposed leaders have so little grasp of history, at least enough to learn from it. And so little appreciation of new, evolving realities.
Hitler wanted power and Lebensraum, but was part of a team pragmatic enough to recognise the limitations to its extent. Sadly initial success lead to a command structure that was not designed to encourage checks and balances. A bit like the BBC sack of rats.
Stalin was kept in check by MAD, and with conventional warfare, even with WMDs, that has sort of held major conflicts in check since.
Yet pols in the West still seem to think they are negotiating with the rational, with realistic aims. And ambitions to stay on this mortal coil to enjoy them.
For a start no one knows who is who or really what they want. Just a loose collection of nihilistic loser nut jobs united by but one thing seeking total global domination and the eradication of anyone not on board, from girl students to Ringo Starr.
All enforced by troops who are eager to die, do not wear uniforms and are not great fans of the Geneva Convention.
It’s a new ball game. Old rules do not apply. The BBC will only grasp this when a drug dealer gets past security with a bit more than Bacon’s marching powder in the rucksack to hand over to a Panorama researcher’s cousin.

It was the initial approach of Adams looking for a way out for the IRA that started the “peace process”. Previously Labour governments (who else?) had been eager to talk to the IRA, leading the IRA to think the British state thought the Bitish state was losing. There was no decrease in IRA violence. The “recruiting sergeant” argument against the use of hard power and covert operations is fallacious because most supporters of any movement are extremely fickle. When the Loyalist backlash got going and the nationalist population realised that “tit-for-tat” murders would be used consistently as a tactic, they very quickly made their concerns known to the IRA men in their neighbourhood. The fickle supporters of Islam in Europe, i.e. “moderate” Muslims know that their support has no negative consequences whatsoever. Even mild criticism is shouted down as “islamophobia”.
Did the BBC ever proclaim that it has “nothing to do with Irish nationalism” whenever there was an IRA atrocity ? Maybe “it has nothing to do with Catholicism”. Believe it or not, when I was living in Bavaria in the 80s , the local, ultra-catholic Volksmusik radio station was only too eager to churn out anti-English, anti-protestant, pro IRA propaganda. At least they did not get the idea of hiding explosives in their Lederhosen and matyring themselves.

He also had a lot of managerial experience – successfully steering SKY TV as CEO in its early days.

Trouble is, the actual feared backlash still seems rare, and if it exists at all almost exclusively non sticks and stonesy in actual bodily harm, yet the BBC sofa bunny flava du jour (the discreditted one they wheel out like Mehdi Hasan, to ease tensions) has dedicated squads of activists trawling the Internet and the phone lines to log about sweet actual FA.
In Singapore a Muslima claimed on social media that an Ang Mo shouted at her on the MRT. Cue some rather blood-curdling stuff on social media from a fair few men named Mo. Being Singapore, some have tried to track down when and if this actually happened, as it is pretty cctv’d up. So far, no sign. So some are starting to wonder if this isn’t the start of stirring up the BS is what has until now been a pretty harmonious place, faith wise. Now who would see value in that? Maybe the new BBC station in their shiny new offices there might investigate?
Meanwhile, the streets, tubes, cafes, clubs, supermarkets of major cities continue to run red with the blood of people who can no longer ring the equivalent of Tell Mama for them. As it does not exist. And they can no longer speak. There may be a Pastor Niemoller metaphor in there.

Her claim was very obviously contrived – I’d be more inclined to believe her if she phoned me out of the blue and said I’d had an accident last week that wasn’t my fault.
More to the point of BBC bullshit was Naga’s fakey gasp in reaction to this girl’s fairytale.
Firstly, the item was set up as a report about islamophobia/racism (a juxaposition the BBC continually makes) so how come Naga was soooo shocked at the punchline? Naga was posing her showy concern.
Secondly, the payoff was rather lame and Naga’s reaction way out of proportion. With a gasp like that for this bit of banter over the frozen chops down at Aldi what is Naga going to do when actual racial expletives are hurled as a gang of white-hooded (oh the ironies) thugs actually throw some molotovs?

I have just switched on the TV and made the mistake of hoping that there may be some kind of decent news reporting on bbbc and what was I presented with……………..? Yes, you guessed it two islamic women wearing the half garb (niqab, is it?) to hear how they are fearing a ‘backlash’ from the native Christian population so the off button was immediately reached for.
However, I see that even in the wake of the most severe islamic atrocity for many, many years the bbbc is following it’s well tested policy of legitimising and ultimately blaming anyone else but islam.
I then started to consider as to what it would take to get the bbbc to actually see the world the the eyes of ‘normal’ people and start to deliver factual reporting without giving it an agenda first……Perhaps they may change their attitude if the bbbc studios were actually attacked and real bbbc people murdered and maimed… I wonder how the reporting might change then.
Oh and by the way do the bbbc have a policy now of ignoring Nigel Farage? He has made a couple of real statesmanlike speeches about this latest atrocity that have been completely ignored by the media

Oh, yes – Nigel is persona non grata with the BBC, unless they can find something bad to say about him and/or UKIP, or they think that they can embarrass him by having him on as a guest. He is a true statesman, and the BBC are scared shitless of him.

The BBC is very alarmed at the prospect of an upcoming UKIP by-election victory over Labour.
The comrades moved the motion in the Commons for the vote asap specifically so as to prevent a UKIP campaign building up any traction – Cameron has no dog in this fight other than his pro-EU bias. One like-for-like dud Labour MP won’t bother Tory Central Office – and the longer Corbyn limps on the better for Dave.
The BBC are happy to play their part with a Farage black out from the airwaves for as long as they dare.

This bias was so obvious back on 10th November – I was listening to TWATO in my car (on the way to a memorial service which is why I remember the date) reporting on Cameron’s just announced EU ‘demands’. Nigel was on and coolly and calmly dissected and demolished Cameron’s plans and arguments. He was followed by Tory Rees-Mogg trying to do likewise by whittering on about ‘thin gruel’…. So much so that I was looking forward to hearing Nigel’s comments later on the main TV news however I was only to hear about the thin gruel. It was as if Nigel had never spoken.

Your logic is flawed I’m afraid.
Frank (dont shoot I’m a moslem) Gardner has already been shot by savages, but simply morphed into a terrorists groupie….Stockholme syndrome personified.
So it wont work…..the more they suffer, the more convinced they will be it’s all tne fault of the extreme right.
While it would give me immense pleasure for your ideas to come true….it would change nowt.

Mali hotel attack: ‘170 hostages seized’ in Bamako

I see the Nothing-To-Do-With-Islamists are at it again, in Mali this time, where they’ve taken hostages at the Radisson Blu Hotel.
According to the BBC, ‘Police have surrounded the hotel, which the gunmen entered shooting, and shouting “God is great!” in Arabic, a security source told Reuters.’ You know, I don’t think they need to translate any more. We’ve heard these words so often from the teeny-tiny minority of Nothing-To-Do-With-Islamists.

They’ll just be a bunch of alienated people from deprived communities suffering because of government cuts and at the end of their tethers, yet determined to pass the benefits of their cultural diversity on to the rest of us.
I’m sure Al-Beeb will soon be able to report on their disadvantaged upbringings and explain how we are all to blame.
Oops. So sorry. I was just taking the p*** out of the bBBC but then I read Edited Highlights below and discovered I was basically writing the truth!

This Mali story must have broken not long or even during the pro muslim piece I was bemoaning over earlier. If BBC staff can’t start making contact with reality soon it may well be time to introduce compulsory IQ testing at broadcasting house.

Female suicide bomber just going through a bad patch. Nice girl really, normal, getting good grades you know…but was ‘fragile’, ‘vulnerable’ you see. ‘She loved life’ too. Absolutely unbelievable.

And it’s the fault of the security services you see…
‘Already, a number of intelligence failures and security challenges have been identified in the wake of the Paris attacks.’
Eh? there was me thinking it was all the fault of murderous Muslim terrorists. Good job I’ve got the BBC to educate and inform me.

Blaming the security services is a win-win situation for all parties. For the toddlers employed by the BBC it is a chance to express anti-government sentiment. It also promotes the false logic of ‘we couldn’t stop them this time so we never can so we should just surrender’, a sort of variant on Corbyism. But the government and security sevices themselves are keen to promote this agenda, the message being “if only we spent more on mass surveillance and spooks we could have stopped them…”

Another classic was Fergal Keene in a live broadcast last night at the end of the Ten ‘o’ clock news. He said that President Hollande had not listed to what he had told him about the alienation of French Muslims, and as a consequence France was now paying the price. The bottomless sanctimonious vanity of the man is such that he entirely forgot that he was meant to be simply reporting the news. He is convinced that his views are more important.

On a long drive down from the north east to Devon, I’ve been able to give Radio 4 some serious attention. The station’s content is nothing short of vomit-inducing drivel. I lost count of the amount of times “feminism” was mentioned. They must have been having a special on “strong independent women”.
A good discussion followed regarding interracial kisses and relationships on screen. Apparently, interracial relationships are much too rare on our screens and the reason is simple, according to the BBC. We’re a nation a racists.
The content of Radio 4 is pure propaganda. It’s not even good propaganda, just the same constantly regurgitated wet fart opinion pieces.

The origins of contemporary popular music are in the Southern States of America, where they sang about real suffering (slavery) deep spiritual convictions (Christianity) and actual hardship (folk songs) and these were repackaged post-war as light entertainment by Elvis and The Beatles and their like. That re-packaging has been mined out, but there is no bedrock to go back to except the narcissism of the selfish whining monkey generation who face no real racism, have no deep spiritual convictions, and suffer no actual hardship, but cannot allow themselves (because the cultural relativists have declared that pop is high art) to have mindless fun, and so what you get as a result is tedious Guardian reader political polemics or emotionally incontinent dirges about arguments they had with their boyfriend who has nice cheekbones but will sex on tap not commit.

I really think it is now a time for true conservative voices to be mostly silent. The situation in Europe and in other parts of the world is deteriorating daily. Our current leaders are in denial and no longer fit for their jobs. The MSM is almost laughable in it’s inability to report and face up to reality.
The real effects of the Paris massacre ( that is what it was ) will take time to be felt. Although the usual 2 year delay now seems to be shortening with the increasing pace of events.
This will have to be dealt with by us the people of Europe. It will be new men and women who will have to do it and at present they are unknown. This is always the way when an exisitential crisis occurs.
So little is gained by listening to the current leadership and media elite and less is gained by allowing their idiocy to affect us.
MY fear is that so bizarre is the useless current leadership that it will attempt to destroy those who will need to take control as this elite fears for it’s future and its’ privileges and wealth. This current leadership lacks that most vital of attributes. It does not love it’s people and it’s culture but rather despises it. It is not rooted in the land. It no longer understands what the word nation really means. As to freedom to them is is an obsolete word.
Think of us conservative Europeans as being under a form of occupation. We are going to have to act carefully and with intelligence. But that we are the necessary future I have no doubt.

….or.
He usually takes Friday and Monday off because he does a late Thursday shift (This Week) and does Sundays too (Sunday Politics).
Brillo said a few things that needed saying last night, for sure, but its only news because so few of our highly paid sofa sitters ever say anything worth listening to. Why JoCo isn’t working I don’t know, but James Landale hasn’t got the maturity to fit his telegenic accent and visage, so the DP today is ‘thin gruel’ thus far (half way in). A fee for the hypocrite’s hypocrite, Guardianista money tree and spitting enthusiast, the privately educated anti-grammar school Zoe Williams, and a new NTDWI guy from the ‘Economist Newspaper’ – Facepalm.
And we have a ……… Labour Party analysis. More air heads talking in their bubble.

I have just seen this quote on the bBBc website focussed on General Franco. Interesting that they accuse fascist of doing what they themselves do.
‘Spain’s Gen Francisco Franco fought a brutal war against democracy with the aid of Hitler and Mussolini and thereafter presided over a regime of state terror and national brainwashing through the controlled media and the state education system.’

Cynically I think Brillo’s rant was scripted for him and OK’d by the BBC, for what reason I hear you ask? Because if questioned in future about their pro Islamic stance, they can always use this outburst to prove ‘otherwise’. I call on Andrew O’Neill M’Lord….
It wasn’t unscripted and I don’t believe the program is live, it was known well in advance what was being broadcast.

Two explosions in London over the last 24 hours and not a single peep on the BBC about them.
One outside Baker street station last night, claimed as a ‘controlled explosion’, a second in a Café Nero again described as a controlled explosion, yet witnesses were tweeting that these both went off prior to security forces arriving.

Is it a bloke carries on the Islamicphobia.story on the 13:00 news. Same story as this morning woman and her 7 year old son. I’m now waiting to see if the BBc have 3rd party verification. Seems to be lots of talk but no verified stories of any back lash.
I also half heard a story from the Police just before saying that armed response teams would be cut down if an event happened here as they would be out gunned by terrorists with automatic weapons. As far as I’m aware the HK MP3 is in usage which even in a civilian version is semi automatic . The HK MP5 is also used by GSG 9 . Also firing an AK on full auto isn’t very accurate and burns through ammo.
