What an utter insensitive b*****d that Andy Murray is….cold, heartless and calculating, doesn’t he have any feelings for those tennis players who don’t have kids…do they not also have a stake in succeeding in the tennis world as well?
“The last thing I looked at before I went on court today was a picture of my daughter,” Murray said.
“I feel like that’s what I’m playing for now, so that in a few years hopefully she can be proud of what I have achieved.”
Murray was reticent about whether he thinks his daughter, who was born on 7 February, will change his game.
He said: “I think obviously priorities change significantly.”
Anyway, another week and lots of bias, bad journalism or just plain stupidity…you judge….the floor’s yours once again.
Everyone on this forum should read this report because it concerns them directly.
The sad thing is that it is never been acted upon because it contains a truth no politician wants to confront’ and in failing to do so, puts every one of us at risk for the sake of Community Cohesion & anti Racism.

I had a read, but I’m unconvinced.
There’s only one report of this, and if it was genuine I’d have expected more. Tories have access to Labour past implemented policy, and although I wouldn’t put anything past Lazy Davey I’d expect concerns to be raised over something like this.
Then there appears to be no motive other than a peaceful life. If there were concerns about potential Islamic violence then I would have expected immigration to have been limited, and Muslim extremist preachers vetted, lest the inspired the violence the plan claims to have wanted to prevent.
If there was a plan solely discussed within the Blair government, then it’s very dead now!

Quote from Dover sentry at 4.11 on the “old” thread, but important…
“Today from Berlin, Angela Merkel has made it clear that to gain access to the ‘Single Market’, we’ll have to allow free movement of people.
This is how Traitor May will fudge Brexit. We don’t actually need the Single Market, but May will insist we do. Hence free movement of people.”
We must insist that all references to “free movement of people” are challenged…what is actually meant is “open door immigration, regardless of skills, ability to find work or even basic English language ability”.
Challenge your MPs, candidates, internet sparring partners…whoever….fight against newspeak.

I can’t understand why more is not made of the density of the population here in the UYK, a small country, compared with the huge size of France, Germany etc. I am sure I saw somewhere weeks or months ago a chart someone did (might have been Guido?) which made alarming and revealing reading. Basically the other countries of Europe were going to have to take millions more migrants to be even close to the level we have. Why don’t politicians make more of this density situation?

True, France could double its population before it had the same density as ours. They can take the next 50 million migrants, we are full.

Soapbox, its something that even a 3 year old could work out, but the multiculturalites just want to keep on ‘filling’ us up ! We have 6 million alone in London, which is the same population as Switzerland, and a lot more than other small principalities. Whereas the UK have large towns almost bumping into one another with small hamlets and villages interspersed between; the great swathes of Germany, France and Spain have many driving miles between their largest towns with only the smallest of hamlets (4 houses and a church) separating them.
I live in a ‘large’ village about 40 miles north of London, but like most parts of Britain we are not a migrant free zone. I do wonder exactly how many migrants permanently settle in the similar outback villages of the large European countries, – I would hazard a guess as none.
Yes, we ARE a soft touch and its easier to get benefits (the chunnel pedestrian is now on £700 a month without any hint of being deported) but in the main its our language that’s ‘done for us’ ! English is a world language so the hordes are going to head for here. How many of the population here or worldwide speak Hungarian or Flemish ? exactly, so a Somalian with broken English ain’t gonna put down roots in Amsterdam or Budapest.

It follows the bbc QT format, 1 leaver and 4 remainers.
The intellectual level is somewhere between blue peter and the woodentops.
Somebody called Michelle mone was asking where is the £350 million promised for the NHS. Someone should tell her we are still in the eu for at least another 2 years and that everyone said that some part of this sum could be given to the NHS.
Somebody else called June sarpong wanting another referendum because of the lies told by the leave side. The only ‘lie’ I could think of was her not being able to understand the above sum was mentioned as possibly going to the NHS. I can think of plenty of lies by the remainers of course, ww3, £4,200, £32,000 and all the end of days doom mongering for examples.

The best answer to the BBC line on the £350 million was on the Today programme on 22nd June. There was the usual BBC question containing the statement that the figure was a lie because some/much of the money comes back to the UK for EU approved projects. Instead of answering the question the interviewee turned it round and asked what the basic rate of income tax was? They agreed that it was 20%, whereupon the interviewee pointed out that by the BBC’s logic it was zero, because the money that the government raised from the people was then spent on the people: so if it came back in approved projects it was never taken away in the first place. There was an instant change in the line of questioning.

BBC news is really trying for a General Election now there’s a new PM. They keep casting a doubt about whether there is illegality in an uncontested election – and answering the question no there is no illegality. Then they ask whether there is legitimacy in an unelected PM forming a new government without a democratic mandate.
They are reminded that Gordon Brown didn’t have a democratic mandate – and reply with the fact that Theresa May criticised Brown for failing to obtain one.
I contrast the situation when Blair resigned and passed the reins in an uncontested election to Brown, and the way I remember the BBC reported that, as a coronation without question of democratic legitimacy.
More pro Labour bias.

A thousand pro-EU lawyers have said that the referendum result for Brexit was illegal because people where mislead into believing that they could vote for independence from the EU in a referendum. But they claim the law says that this is illegal because Members of Parliament not the People have the supreme authority to decide on what to vote for, so there naa-naa, but then if the Members of Parliament do vote for Brexit, the lawyers say that this is also illegal because the European Union has supreme sovereignty over all Peoples and Nations of the EU.

The traitor Heath acted illegally when he took Britain into the Common Market in the first place: his actions were unconstitutional in that he did not have the legal authority to surrender parliamentary sovereignty to a foreign power; he also broke the oath he had forsworn to the Crown as an MP and the PM by undertaking the actions he did.
I believe that the best course of action for the Remainiacs who are still either fighting the referendum campaign or attempting to seek out ways of subverting the result of it; is for them to move to a country within the EU in which they can live out their days.
They will be much happier there I think and would surely feel much safer; as the financial and societal collapse of the U.K. is imminent, of which we were all forewarned by the Remainiacs prior to the vote, so the sooner they go the more secure I’m certain they’ll be. It will also allow the task of Brexit to be undertaken far more decisively and efficiently than it otherwise will.

Somebody needs to start a petition calling for a re run of the 1975 referendum.
Once we get to 100,000 signatures, that should trigger it.
I’m sure there’s a reason we can find to be a little unhappy with the result. Somebody, somewhere lied or maybe some voted one way but they didn’t really mean to.
The sooner article 50 is in the better.
More miserable groups of remainers are putting obstacles in the way of the democratically voted for Brexit, like these 1,000 lawyers, most politicians, the bbc and much of the media plus all the virtue signallers (we love Europe) and the luvvies, comedians (?), the bankers, the rich, the land owners collecting money given (back) from the eu.

Typical lawyer rubbish. Our unwritten constitution rest upon the -to them quaint I suppose- notion that all sovereignity is vested in the electorate and that it cannot be ceded or otherwise compromised. We established this after much struggle and blood in the 17th century and sbsequently by various acts of Parliament. Really very easy to grasp for most of us. Rather it is the first vote to join the Common Market that was unconstitional .All subsequent treaties only compound the crime.
The position of the EU in all this is irrelevant. It has no authority over any of us at all that can be considered legal.

No UK parliament can bind its successor: ANY Act of Parliament can be repealed by a subsequent parliament; there is no parliament, executive or judicial body which exercises a higher degree of sovereignty here in the UK than the Crown in Parliament.
If there are lawyers in Great Britain who believe otherwise: they are not fit to practise law here and, as I said in my post above, will be more comfortable relocating (along with the rest of the Remainiscum) to within the EU; and good riddance to the lot of ’em.

Well that was good wasnt it.
Theresa the safe pair of hands with very little effort on her part but with a lot of help from her friends has managed to get her grasping, soiled fingers around the brexit organ and will now be doing her best to stifle said member back to its flacid obedient state.
Whilst pissed off and depressed with the ease that Leadsome and the brexit supporters have been shafted by a “magic circle” consisting of the Tory old guard and of course the MSM. – I cant help thinking that maybe, just maybe the old rules have changed and the scales finally seem to have fallen from the eyes of many people who before took very little interest in politics in the past.
Whether this will be enough to thwart Mays “Operation Backslide” and her loyalty to European “free movement” I dont know. However what I do feel is that the old days where people just ignored media manipulation by the BBC and MSM and saw it as relatively harmless obsession have long gone.
Many people have become more aware of what the EU stands for and where it is going. It is worrying that practically all our media jumped on the shaft Leadsome bandwagon. However I wonder if they may have overplayed their hand a little. I think these tossers will have to very careful from now on how they play the “game” and the one thing we do know is that because they are arrogant and full of self entitlement they will not be very careful.
May said brexit is brexit in effect she said nothing. Liars are also liars. And corrupt state broadcasters are corrupt state broadcasters. All she said was a statement of fact without any intention. In real life actions speak louder than words. And certainly waiting until January before triggering article 50 to me is a very strong intention that this whole charade will be drawn out and still born.
I am sure we can all predict much BBC hand wringing and Theresa theatrically rolling up her sleeves and doing battle with EU for the best deal for Britain. Course we may have to accept a few technicalities such as free movement but as we all know it is essential to stay in the single market – Why – Cos the BBC keep,on telling us it is so.
Maybe we can help Theresa with her negotiations. It needs a title to show those Eurotwats that we mean business and wont take no for an answer! What can she call it I wonder??? mmmmmmm – I gottit we can call it THE BIG DEAL!

I attended Wimbledon tennis twice over the fortnight, once on Court One and the next day (middle Saturday) on Centre. I had a great time and I have to say it’s an example of multi-culturalism that just works with no agenda. Although the attendees were predominantly (but not hideously) ‘white’ (of all nations, it seemed to me – German, Italian, American, Scandanivian, who knows…) many nations and faiths were represented. I watched (on BBC TV) the Williams’ ladies doubles final. Really enjoyed the match and decided to watch it again the next day on iPlayer. When watching it the first time round I noticed something but thought I’d wait again until I watched it for the second time. On second viewing I did screengrabs of the crowd reaction shots and/or shots of the crowd in between points. I ignored wide shots, court shots or shots of a player with the crowd in the background. Of the below pics, four are of celebrities (there may be more but I’m not aware): Bob Willis, Peter Kay, the Duke of Kent and a lady (I think – never seen it) from ‘Game of Thrones’. I assume the producer is deciding on which images to use. At this point I could do with some advice on how to post an image from my PC. ‘Add images’ wants a URL. Anyone able to help?

It might be a little roundabout but this is what I suggest.
1) Acquire a domain name. This can be free (often means the host name is part of the URL or you must accept advertising) or something quite cheap. I use GoDaddy but there are plenty of other hosts. Build Your Ideal Website. It’s Free. would be a good place to start.
2) Start a simple website. (Mine is Five Minutes for Israel thank you very much.) Most sites provide simple tools. If you don’t intend to go public it can simply be a message that the site is in construction.
3) Upload the image to your host.
4) Use the URL the site provides. You should be able to take it from wherever the images are stored but if the host doesn’t provide that facility place it on the page and copy from the code.
Good luck.

Years ago I did occasional business with some characters who just could not resist putting one over on me. It was a game. Sometimes I worked it out before time other times they had me.
It will be the same with May. She and her backers -dare we mention the rotten banksters and the media hacks – are going to take us. How and when is up to us to work out. That is why she is there and we better get to understand this.
I really love the English ruling class. Their contempt for us is the one thing that could ruin them. So self assured and so confident that we will not work it out before it happens.
We are going to be taken for a ride. It is up to all of us to keep this in mind and to withhold any trust at all in the current elites.
They really do regard the EU vote as illegitimate. No question of that. So they will and can act in the usual vicious way of our elites.
This is a bad day for what remains of our democracy and freedom. For along with her obvious untrustworthiness May is an authoritarian in the making and lacks even Cameron’s scruples.

Following the Pound Sterling price correction following BREXIT (a price reduction that now makes it affordable to investors) I happen to speak to our Italian distributor this afternoon concerning our updated price list of our products. Our distributor runs a very successful business, but is still very concerned of how things are starting to play out in Italy. We talked about forward purchasing of Pounds. He also informs me that there is now a growing and worrying run on the Italian banks and in certain areas of Italy, banks have simply run out of money. The German Banking situation is also looking worrying as the banking structure is calling in cash.
Italy is worth watching very closely as it’s banking structure looks like it is about to crash. The E.U. Ponzi scheme is coming to and end. BREXIT means BREXIT Mrs May?

Hi Cranmer,
A lack of confidence in the people of their economy and of their politicians ability to handle the crisis is itself leading to the crisis. Our distributor can ride out the storm for a short term. but having had a chat yesterday, their long term future looks bleak. As I have said, they will shortly place an order but want a locked price to protect them against adverse currency swings, so we are looking at a forward purchase of currency. Not good, not good at all. But there is life outside of the E.U. and my time now will be spent on tracking down new customers bought about from the BREXIT vote.

The Italian Banking crisis is now taking hold as banks ATM’s run out of money. The E.U. are refusing to help. The E.U. has no money as it is just a “talking Heads” debating shop running an electronic Ponzi scheme. Ponzi Schemes work really well at the start but runs out of steam when the money people didn’t have runs out. Think Pyramid selling. This is what has happened in Italy. Greece next and the German Banks are calling in cash to keep liquidity as they now refuse to contribute to the Ponzi Scheme. The U.K. despite being in the wonderful world of the E.U. is £1.7 Trillion in debt and a debt which is growing at £5,400 per second, every second. The powers that be will not let the U.K. give up there £10 Billion P.A. and so we see Mrs May shoehorned in as the next P.M., a remainer. Can’t have the money men losing their money now can we? Got to keep the Ponzi Scheme going long enough to pull their cash out of it….sorry, I meant our cash. And as George Osborne continues to print money (sell our assets to foreign “investors” through quanatitive easiing) there are still politicians and ordinary people who think the E.U. is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I’m now in my advancing years, and I can honestly say, you really can’t help people who are stark raving bonkers.

One piece about the EU economy, which I have just read, ends
“Just think of the EU as one giant ponzi scheme and that, for the first time, an investor has asked for his money back” The Investor being the UK.
Everything I read about the Italian Banking crisis makes me more hopeful that the Euro is about to collapse.
The Italians banks need 150,000,000 Euros. So desparately that The Italian Government (partially consisting of EU placements) are considering a bail in (= steal the money in the accounts), as was done in Cyprus.
This bail in is, I read, against EU rules, strange, they never bothered about us before.
If even a whiff of publicity suggesting that this would take place there would be a run on the Italian banks which would force them to close. The lack of confidence is very likely to spread to other Eurozone states.
Everything that I read suggests that the Italian banks are the visible tip of a large iceberg and that French, Spanish and German banks have much larger, and much more difficult to deal with, insolvency.
It seems to me that the Eurozone has two options :-
a) Let the banks collapse.
b) Create some trillions of invisible Euros and “lend” them to the bankss.
I am not an expert in international finance so I would like to know the likely effect of both options, what other options are there?
Links to answers to the questions would be most welcome.

Interesting. If history is about to repeat itself then what the UK is experiencing (and coping with) will be replayed across the EU zone starting with the weakest links, Namely wholesale devaluation of the Euro. Whilst the £ sterling may of devalued temporarily, the Euro would have to be devalued permanently. Greece, Spain and italy and France could force Germany to devalue the Euro which is kept artificially high to suit German exports. In reality it feeds off the poorer nations and its biggest exports are to the UK. We are in a far stronger position by being free of the Euro. Its a possibility that Italy, Spain and Greece may revert to a stand by currency, France less so as they are ‘protected’ in EU favors around CAP agriculture and import tariffs that nobody else gets to protect their own industries and exports.
Not sure if this answers the question but the devaluation of the former Zimbawian currency and what is happening in socialist strongholds (such as Venezuela), means that when the EU runs out of money, and it is already effectively a bankrupt state. Very much like a PONZI Pyramid scheme. There is nobody out there to help Italy, Greece or Spain. We in the UK can only break out of the decline as we have our own currency and a good trading record and a great deal of financial footy and international investments. We live entirely on international trade… not the EU.

It may surprise many on here to learn that there are very few Co2 measuring stations in the World but there are an increasing number as more accurate scientific instruments are manufactured. Historical reports are an interesting read and this one again raises questions about the validity of man made Co2 causing “Climate Change”
[On the basis of annual averages calculated from monthly averages, CO2 levels at Jubany have risen from 356.75 in 1994 to 384.74 in 2009. The reduced and poorly defined concentration peak of 1997-1998 was also observed at other Antarctic stations in the WMO Global Atmospheric Watch network, and may have been caused by any one or a combination of several things, including sea surface temperature anomalies, air temperature anomalies, and changes in general atmospheric circulation. Among all the factors affecting the atmospheric CO2 concentration the most convincing cause seems related to the 1997-1998 El Niño and subsequent La Niña episodes. That hypothesis is based on the behavior of SOI and CO2 concentrations at several Antarctic and non-Antarctic sites and from cross correlations between the two parameters.]
As you can see from the above, the BBC’s “The science is settled” is very questionable.
Another station at Mauna Loa (Hawaii) shows that there has been a continual increase in the Co2 per parts of the atmosphere. The only problem with this, is that this year, all the most accurate satellite data pertaining to “Global Temperatures” shows a cooling climate. Oops. What say you Mr Harrabin?

Some of the sexist hypocrisy from Anna Soubry has been very revealing.
When Boris Johnson dropped out of the race, she said she was pleased that the Bullingdon boys and their silly games were out of power and looked forward to women coming in to sort out the mess. This didn’t just refer to St Theresa of May(be) as S-EU-bry also mentioned the appalling Hillary Clinton in the US Presidential Election and Angela Eagle for Labour leader in the UK. Presumably she also loves Nicola St Urgeon in Scotland, and Ruth Davidson, and Caroline Lucas, plus Leanne Wood, plus Kezia Dugdale … plus Tim Farron. Not a man among them!
How anyone could still be advocating Hillary Clinton with her record is simply staggering: is it simply because she is female? And what business has la Soubry got in interfering in Labour’s internal affairs? Well, I suppose the Eagle does tick two boxes: female and gay. And to top it all off, the viciousness of the attack on Andrea Leadsom shows that Soubry, if nothing else, is no better than men after all. She should have stuck to “Central Weekend”, where she used to be quite good as a host.

Apologies if someone’e already posted about this. Rod Liddle has posted a comedy video on the Spectator, satirising the EU remainers who are agitating for a second referendum. Several pro-EU characters are represented, and Mr Liddle seems to have played all the roles himself. Look out for:
Annabelle Snowflake the Camden carer, who thinks ‘haters’ shouldn’t vote
Binky the scruffy old rock star (eat your heart out, Bob Geldof), with his latest release:
“You’re a racist, you’re racist, you’re old and insane,
You’re a racist, you’re a racist, I hope you die in pain”
Also the farmer who’d like to employ Britons to pick his crops, but chooses Poles instead because they’ll work for noting but an encouraging kick up the arse.
If you miss the un-PC sketch shows of old, this is for you. (it’s only about ten minutes long.) Mr Liddle (if it is him) is an excellent comedy actor. If only the BBC could still do this sort of thing. It did vaguely remind me of an old show. Possibly Not the nine O’Clock news?

More bias on the Today program, not of a political nature. but bias non the less.
The ‘experts’ have decided that multi vitamins for pregnant women are a ‘waste of money’. The BBC says that buying them can cost up to £15 per month. It then goes on to talk about the single supplement which it says costs a few pence per day.
Seeing as it mention at least two supplements were beneficial this doesn’t actually make sense unless it is disguised by BBC bias speak.
“Can cost up to £15” – but will almost certainly cost far less at the economy end. Tesco’s own brand are £4 for 90 equalling a mere £1.33 per month ! Or just 4.3 pence.
The two supplement cost ‘pence per day’. Well even at the most far out expensive end that’s just 25p per day each, to match even the most ridiculous expensive option.
The Folic Acid is 70p for 90 at Tesco
The vitamin D is £2.75 for 90
In other words, although the multi Vits might not be as valuable as consumers think, they still won’t do anyone any harm, the cost difference per month is vanishingly small, so why did the BBC feel the need to spin it this way? Maybe they are so used to doing so they’ve lost that sense of proportion!
It’s only when there are stories like this when the hard facts are easily available, and it can be proved that the BBC are not reporting in a fair and impartial manner that suspicions can be highlighted as fact.
23 likes
There are two possible angles on this, from a BBC perspective. Firstly, the beloved EU has spent a lot of effort into regulating the supplements market, so the default position will be to ‘diss’ vitamins. Secondly, there is a long-standing campaign to add folic acid to all flour and bread on a mandatory basis – other than in expensive artisan loaves sold in Notting Hill and Islington, of course. It is a pillar of faith for socialists that the population be subject to compulsory mass medication e.g. campaign to add industrial waste from aluminium smelting into the water supply (commonly referred to as fluoridisation). What they really want, ideally, is an additive to stop all those horrible White people having waycist, homophobic, islamophobic and cop-killing-phobic thoughts.

Paul Greengrass the director of the Bourne series of films was interviewed on Radio 4 Today this morning, and proved to be the typical leftie loon who knew nothing but thought he knew everything.
When talking about the film he said that the old enemy of soviet Russia had gone, and people were now concerned by the Huuuggge corporation some of which had grown up in the past 10 years. Globalisation was a major concern for him, so he claimed, and then unbelievably went to tell everyone that he had voted remain ! Exactly the way those huge globalising corporation had wanted him to!
He was upset at the treatment of Tony Blair who he claimed was visibly distressed at his treatment ! Well that’s not the way I saw it Paul! To me Blair was upset because he’d been caught and was wriggling on the hook!
The whole interview was of one mans massively distorted view of the world which he has been able to afford with his enormous wealth.
In this article he talks about his friendship with ex Labour loser Ed Milliband, from his 5th floor suite at one of the most exclusive hotels in London – Claridges.

Once Article 50 is invoked, the two-year clock starts ticking and if we don’t agree to everything the EU wants, they just chuck us out. It doesn’t leave us in a good negotiating position. Whereas if we let them know we’re going to do it, it leaves them uncertain and gives us room to negotiate positions in advance. It’s no coincidence that the EU too is in a hurry for us to invoke. The one problem for us with this approach is the very real risk of backsliding, especially now that May (the Farce Be With You) is going to be in charge.

We have a £60 billion trade defecit with the rest of the EU. Any British negotiator going into talks effectively has £60 billion on the table. The position has to be: here is the money, this is what we want in return. Do you want the money or not?

My default position would be if Clark and Junker are in favour it must be a bad idea. But in this instance the over-riding consideration is that our new PM wanted us to Remain. Given that vital fact we have to put the marker down now and start the process.
I’ve read all of Richard North’s posts on why we should wait. In economic terms he’s right – we should have our negotiating plan worked out in detail before we start. But we are still dealing with the politics, and after they destroyed Leadsom I don’t trust any politician.
We need to take an irrevocable step immediately.
If the EU is willing to negotiate we can start on access to the single market without the free movement of people. Are they willing to give us the same deal they gave Lichtenstein? On that one we’re asking the question so they’ll need the time to formulate an answer, and we already know that if their answer is a flat “NO” or reply is “WTO”, and the negotiating team can play noughts and crosses for the next 2 years – or we can spend 2 years negotiating an acceptable, slight variation on the Lichtenstein deal, while all the other details are sorted out.

My complaint-just logged.
Dear BBC
It was brought to my attention by a client that Fiona Bruce used the phrase “The Nasty Party” in her News At Six piece(11.07.16).
I checked and found that she had indeed said this at 7.50.
This brand is a registered domain of one of my parties, and you will understand that your use of the phrase can be seen as pejorative, if not prejudicial to imaging and digital recognition rights of the domain site leaseholder/owner.
On this occasion, it is no problem in that it had not occurred to anybody outside UK jurisdiction that a problem might arise, and accept that it was not said in malice in regard of my client.
But would imagine that the BBC does have guidelines in regard of promoting and advertising of products and licensed companies etc…so hope to hear from you, in order to clarify the position.
Hope now that the matter is closed, and that the phrase “The Nasty Party” is not used again, unless by authorised, accredited and licensed agencies…Fiona Bruce would appear to not be so entitled to impugn or belittle a hitherto-moderately successful small business that certainly does NOT need the “publicity” that Ms Bruce inadvertedly brought to unmerited attentions..both here and worldwide, given the global reach.
Do let us know how you are electing to respond to this issue, to ensure our mutual satisfaction.
Do we all agree then?..that at 5pm yesterday-on this VERY SITE-I launched the Nasty Party
Yet only one hour later-6.07.50 on the Six O Clock News…Fiona Bruce used the phrase in a pejorative manner…or else promoted a political party (and/or Party Planning concern)in breach of guidelines re advertising and promoting of brands, imagings and other promulgations.
Off to get my legal and website pals now…
Do let me know if you hear this phrase again on the BBC by anybody other than the originator, or the Brexiteers.
Believe M`Learned Friends refer to the next stage as “cease and desist”-then its an injunctive order…

When the new Prime Minister has her negotiating team and cabinet around her, then there would be no reason not to invoke Article 50. This will take a few weeks, without doubt.

Old Bloke, I don’t trust Mrs May but one good thing is she has categorically stated that there will be no second referendum or attempts to re-enter the EU by the back door. This doesn’t mean she’s telling the truth or that she’ll do a good deal with the EU, but it does make it much harder for her to wriggle out of things later. Pro-Leave factions in the Tory party will therefore be able to hold her to account more easily.

I felt it imperative that a leading light Brexiter should lead the country to the promised land. This has not happened, but I have to accept I don’t always get what I want. Not always having it your own way is the fundamental underpin of a fully democratic society – and this is what we voted for. It is a sobering and heartening revelation that there are significant numbers of people within this society who believe in the same ideals and who rejected the partisan left of centre minority who they knew lied, distorted and exaggerated and did not speak for them (yes Beeb, you among them).
May is to be our next prime Minister and she is a political maneuverer of the highest order. However, I believe that she knows that Leadsom would have commanded a significant vote among grassroots conservatives just as she is also aware of the mood of the country for change. I hope she rises to the challenge, brings in some of the big hitter Brexiteers and does right by us all. Its what the country voted for.

I hope so too but I’m not expecting it.Mrs May is an expert at saying much but achieving nothing .A master deflector when challenged.I don’t expect her as PM to be any different. Only thing is she will be more exposed because the buck really will stop with her.

The BBC has made much of the supposed rise in hate crime since the referendum.
Conversely, they appear strangely muted about this.

At least two attempted knife-smuggling incidents, tampering with his car wheel – that makes at least three attempts. The suspicious plane crash of two General Elections ago was not even mentioned. When will the MSM (including BBC) warn of a violent left-wing backlash. We always keep being warned about a right-wing one, although it never materialises despite massive provocation. But they are keep completely shtum on the violent left-wing backlash which has been going for decades but is getting worse as the police don’t seem to bother much about it now.

I imagine that the BBC has a ‘bio-hazard’ unit, probably located offshore and staffed by old white people, that allows the rest to be a work in a ‘safe space’.
Here is one of their productions starring John Gray, telling us how much better life will be ‘post-BREXIT’.

I can’t wait for the BBC to cover the discovery of a new orchid. I can see the headline now:
“Since Brexit the Devil stalks the earth”.
The Archbishop of Canterbury was right – we should have voted Remain !!!!!!

23rd of June, Independence Day,
We told the EU we’re not going to stay
Thanks for the lesson; we’ve now left the room
We’ll no longer share in your misery and doom.
We don’t need to have you as our heartless masters
We don’t need to share your economic disasters.
The People have spoken the left’s gone to shit
Our would-be dictators are having a fit.
The Remainders and Innards were dodgy and shifty
Mrs May, NOW is the time for Article 50
Controlling our destiny, the future may be unsure
But to have stayed in the EU would have made us all poor
While the others smell roses kissing Frau Merkel’s bum,
Our future is hopeful, our best’s yet to come.
The British have spoken, our wishes are clear
We managed to beat Cameron’s pet Project Fear
23rd of June, Independence Day,
Brexit means brexit, dear Mrs May.

Black lives matter, white police offers don’t, well according to …
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-36748136
Factually, a total of 1,466 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty during the past 10 years, an average of one death every 60 hours or 146 per year. This is roughly reflected in the graph used by the BBC.
Other facts are, that black people, though 12% of US population, will be responsible for between 50% and 60% of all serious crimes, including murder, shootings, violent robbery, etc. Thus you might expect that group to be more in line of police fire more than other groups.
Yet, also factually, more whites are killed by police than blacks.

OK? I mention these facts as they appear to have been mislaid by Courtney Subramanian, the writer of the BBC web piece.
She mentions the number of cops killed in line of duty but immediately halves the figure by including 2016. Courtney! We are only half way through 2016! She then throws in the line: ‘However, experts say annual totals can be misleading.’ Ah so facts can be misleading, and has found a convenient ‘expert’ to lead us away from the number killed.
Only the BBC! Well, also, The Guardian, oh, and The Independent, ah yes, not forgetting the soft left, and left wing agitators, and anti-west groups and ….
