    I just heard Justine Webb on Toady refer to Donald Trump as a: “Racist, narcissistic thug.”

    Al beebus and its operatives are truly off the scale of bias with regard to this presidential election. Webb is unfit to be a presenter on that programme, absolutely appalling for him to express what amounts to his personal view in such a fashion.

      My God, did he really call Trump a racist!? That is unconscionable. I don’t think that view would be accepted by the black churches and pastors who are supporting him; neither would the black policemen, sheriffs, servicemen and local politicians.

      Saturday is ALWAY the BBCs “Dress Down” Day in regard of the Toady show.
      Justins handlers and massage boys will all be chillin in Campden Racists this morning after blowing boys, drugs or whatever else they could lay their nhands on last night.
      We know it`s vile shit Mon-Fri. But Saturday is always nasty…that lie in allows them to be more poisonous than normal.
      Ah well, Trumpzakummin.
      November 9th hopefully the end of the NYT/HuffPo/CNN cabals in the USA.

    The Today programme has pitched itself as the In Defence Of Hilary programme this morning.

    In the wake of the news that the FBI is to investigate Hilary’s emails, each news bulletin has begun with “Hilary demands to know …”
    Since whenever has a politician on the back foot in the initial stages of a possible scandal been afforded the empathetic point of view from a supposed impartial news organisation? That was the stance taken throughout the whole programme.

    Each ‘expert’ brought on to discuss to situation has attempted to dismiss it, with the last one not only dismissing it but expanding it to a claim that Trump will press the red button.

    Incredible bias, just incredible.

      I’ve no doubt that is true….they are finally coming to terms with the landslide support that Trump has, and will dwell on this ( as they see it) divine Trump good fortune of another FBI investigation into Killary.
      It will be used to rationalise his victory, by explaining it away conveniently for them.
      I see they also managed to find ( with the fourth horseman of the apocalypse Justin Urquart Stewart) a mention in the papers of ‘ TRUMPKINS’.
      Some pumpkins carved to look like the Don, which began on social media months ago.
      Cant wait for them to find the ugly witch cartoons of Killary in her pointed hat. Riding her broomstick ( no knickers of course to increase her grip on the stick) …

      They are doing with Trump what they have done with every Republican who comes to prominence.
      Reagan they claimed was senile and demented
      Bush Snr was detached his staff came in for individual attack, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, etc etc
      Bush Jnr was portrayed as a simpleton.

      By contrast
      Jimmy Carter man given a poor hand deserves our sympathy
      Bill Clinton hero worship and adoration despite the nasty Republican attempt to impeach him
      Barak Obama well they seem to think he is the son of God himself, despite him possibly being the worst President the US has ever seen

      The BBC are doing what they have always done, and no one has ever stopped them, or even questioned their bias. It seems that no one ever will.

        And the worst case of all was that of Sarah Palin, a clever, experienced, attractive woman who was ritually humiliated and denigrated precisely because she was all three of those things and a terrible danger to the Leftist establishment.

        No woman who called herself a feminist should have remained with the BBC during its campaign against Mrs Palin. The Corporation, along with the rest of the MSM (sound familiar?) used every filthy misogynist trick in the book to wreck her political career.

      I have no doubt the University authorities will do all they can to play down this incident. Nearly all academia in this country is institutionally hostile to Israel. It is now so far gone as to irreversible.
      Free speech is not the issue. The real issue is institutional anti Semitism masquerading as justified concern over Palestine.
      You cannot reason with these students. You cannot talk to them all you can do is ignore them.
      That said it is the business of the forces of law and order to deal with the trouble and disruption they cause. This should not be shirked however distasteful the University authorities find having to enforce it.

        It really is sad that despite all the media does to highlight why this is happening, even here where we might expect readers would be aware of the reasons, they are completely at a loss to explain it.

        I can explain it! Not only that but I have written here, together with links to relevant pages the reasons behind it.

        Sandbagging Sandhurst

        This stretches through the whole of the West (USA & Europe) The huge number of Mosques being built with Saudi money and the teaching of backwards intolerant violent Wahabism is taking place there.

        The BBC covered this with its two part radio series ‘The Deobandi Movement’.

        Then there’s the bribery of Western leaders such as George Bush Snr & Jnr, Barak Obama, Hilary Clinton, Tony BLiar, and undoubtedly David (give me the money) Cameron.

        Once you realise this everything happening begins to make sense.

    The BBC and its bleeding stumps. “Bleeding stumps” is a tried and tested public sector wheeze to either resist budget cuts, and/or to squeeze more tax cash from the likes of you and me. In a few words the organisation in question devises a new budget which proposes cuts to the most vital and demanded functions and spares the least useful bits. It then waves its “bleeding stumps” at the Treasury.

    BBC Monitoring Department was set up in 1939 to keep a watch on foreign broadcast propaganda and news of vital importance to our national interest. It has does so ever since. In 2013 the Government “agreed” with the BBC that funding for this department would henceforth be paid from the licence fee and not from the Foreign Office budget. This was hotly contested at the time, but now that the BBC has its eleven year “sweetheart” budget deal in the bag (thanks Whittinglessdale for the craven climbdown), out come the bleeding stumps. Anthony Hall and co are proposing to cut 4 million quid from the department’s budget (around 25% based on the 2015/16 spend of £16.9 million). This “shortfall” to quote BBC Pravda this morning means that BBC monitoring will lose 40% of its staff in the UK and 20% of staff overseas. It will also have to move from its base in Reading to offices in London (surely more expense ?). One cut includes the Mazar-i-Sharif bureau in Afghanistan. Now £4 million is peanuts to the BBC, but this service is still of significant use to the government, and indirectly to you and me. Based on past performance, we might expect the government to crumble again. Anyway be happy Mrs May as the licence fee goes up each year from now on and Al Beeb continues to undermine every aspect of your government’s policies.

      Gunner, why would anyone monitor the media to find out what is happening in a society?

      Unless the media is under total state control, it seems to exist in a bubble of its own…..and is therefore useless from an intelligence perspective.

      If a foreign state monitored the BBC in the last couple of years they would have assumed that the UK was about to vote for Scottish independence, a Labour government and to remain in the EU, that Nick Clegg and Tony Blair are highly esteemed by the people, that white people are a minority, and men in general are either gay, wish they were women, or are invisible.

    It seems that the Church of Socialism is hemorrhaging congregation numbers faster than it ever has.
    It used to be known as the Tory Party at prayer, but successive left wing Archbishops of Canterbury, such as Rowan Williams who even described himself not as a Christian, but “first & foremost I’m a bearded leftie”.

    Instead of standing up when its beliefs are challenged, it has dithered and trembled, the men in charge not being in possession of a single spine between the lot of them, its core beliefs changing like the weather.

    The majority of people in the country have had enough of freeloading immigrants and asylum seekers, and they certainly do not want to be told by a man or woman with whom they have no right of reply, that they are somehow immoral or sinful because they do not share the views of the Labour party.

    Rather than turning to face their external critics and opposing them, they have instead turned on their own congregations, berating them for not following the latest left wing fad.

    Trying to sit on the fence on issues like women Bishops, (which we were promised would not happen when women vicars were ordained) gay vicars, gay Bishops, and gay marriage (which we all know they really want to do), they betray the people who support them.

    Islam succeeds because it knows what it is. It absolutely never panders to socialists, and as a result socialists love it! It protects its believers and states its views clearly and threatens violence on those who criticise it.

    What a contrast with the Church of Socialism one is respected – one is held in derision and contempt. One is growing, the other fast shrinking, and it’s obvious why.

    Socialism is the council of failure and it always has been.

          “the ordinary ‘little people’ associated with a church do a lot of good.”

          But would they do that regardless?

          My mother, almost 90, lives in a village not far from Dorking. She moved there around 15 years ago when my father died. She is not from that area, or even close, is not religious, but has a wide circle of mutually supportive friends. My sister lives a few miles away so the move made sense.

          The self-promoting local vicar seems to have little interest in people outside the small clique he is surrounded by. They appear to have their fingers in many of the local pies, or at least they try to have.

          However, my mother’s neighbours, most of whom are retired and relatively wealthy, have been helpful from the start. Shortly after moving in there was a power cut. A man my mother had not met up to that point appeared on the doorstep with a propane lamp. He was delivering several of them to older people living on their own. He is a retired businessman of some description but is not connected with the church in any way. Most of the people in my mother’s circle are not. Her immediate neighbour was a director of an insurance company in the City and owned the land on which my mother’s bungalow was built. Nothing is too much trouble (doesn’t fit the lefty stereotype, does it?).

          My point is that these people would be doing good regardless because that is the way they are. I’m quite prepared to admit that their charity has its origins in Christian teaching, but in this village at least the local church is a total irrelevance.

      The Russian Orthodox Church, is pretty sure of its ground, as are the Orthodox churches who had historic experience of life as Dhimmi…..the Serbs, Romanians and Greeks for example and the Coptic Orthodox who face life in present day Egypt.

      The Catholics….torn between the Islam friendly liberals in Europe and the Americas and those in direct contact with Islamists….Catholics in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Nigeria and Pakistan are pretty clear about the threats they face daily.

      The CofE is a state church….it is dangerously compromised by its collaboration with a secularising, multiculturalist state, that seems to view Islam alternatively as a reformable ideology / religion worthy of respect, depending on the mood of the week.

      Islam panders to anyone it thinks it can fool before viciously turning on them when the time is ripe. See the history and bloody fate of the Iranian left in the 1970s and 80s for a case study.

      The mistake of the CofE and western liberals and leftists generally is to view Islam as just another religion in an essentially secular worldview that regards all religion is the same as the cuddly, compliant old CofE.

      For some time I have been disturbed by the extreme prejudice against that humble but useful little thing known as the hyphen. It has been all but destroyed by unthinking progressives who would mangle the English language under the guise of simplifying it.

      So I was delighted to see you reinsert it between ‘no’ and ‘one’ and I fervently hope that the absurd ‘noone’ (which makes me think of an antiquated mid-day) will soon be chucked into the dustbin of history along with other absurdities like ‘cooperation’ (which makes me think of someone constructing an abode for chickens).

      Having got that off my chest, I’m going back to Fox News – all the news that the BBC will not bring you.

    Today programme, Saturday 29 October. Now I don’t understand the full implications of the problems Hillary has with her emails and the BBC doesn’t want to explain but I heard Justin Webb describe on the Today programme just after 8.30 (ie 1hr 35 mins and 32 secs into the programme http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b080mhd2) that the choice was between Trump ‘A racist, misogynist, narcissistic thug and a woman who was secretive and possibly dishonest about her emails’.
    If that isn’t bias, I don’t know what it.
    I am glad that I don’t have a vote in the US Presidential elections. I don’t think I like Trump but if the BBC are against him then I think he is probably the better option.

      The ‘interview’ consisted mostly of Webb gazing beseechingly at Obama like a rabbit caught in the glare of his headlights while the great man spoke at length.

      Webb is an ignorant, talentless fool and would not survive for ten minutes in a genuine media organisation that had to earn its bread in an honest fashion.

        This is typical BBC, worshiping what they see as the ‘Noble Savage’, switching off all critical faculties mainly because the new POTUS was half-Black, and thereby showing that they are, in their own way, as racist as those they accuse of racism. A trivial but similar example is the star-struck girly behaviour of Woman’s Hour presenters interviewing some pop idol from their teenage years, when they have just conducted a reasonably serious interview on some subject like pay inequality.

A good start would be the abolition of the TV poll tax, which funds their whole fantasy world.

    Except, of course, what we heard wasn’t a reflection of Canadian opinion at all. It was a laser-fine focus on the opinions of a group of wealthy, Left wing Canadians who visit one holiday destination where, one assumes, they alternate sunbathing with virtue signalling.

    It was written by a Canadian who has lived in Britain for many years and is thus, by definition, out of touch with Canadian opinion and who, penny to a pound, hobnobs solely with similar bien pensant Left wingers over here.

    Still, never mind. From the BBC’s point of view It was another useful swipe at Trump and from a slightly different angle this time at is was about Canada.

    The hell it was!

        Agreed. Today was a lapse while in the shower.

        The problem is that if you play R4 Roulette as I have been for the past few weeks (switching on at random intervals to see if there’s a propaganda broadcast in progress, which there almost always is, it seems) you soon end up not listening at all. As I have now abandoned live BBC TV for the same reason, it doesn’t leave me much to post about on here.

          On Facebook, the BBC seems to be mirroring its Brexit crisis management attempts by trying to get all the young American eligible voters in Canada over to vote for Hillary, by using their considerable global media presence to rig another election.

          It will be interesting if such meddling works as well as last time.

    Unlike the BBC, Fox News is seriously on Clinton’s case re the reopening of the FBI investigation into the crooked one.

    It’s an extraordinary development in a bizarre election campaign on both sides. Even the lefty US media is covering it because they have no choice but to cover it though it has the potential to destroy Clinton’s chances:

      If Hillary Clinton becomes President, he may be “suicided” like Vince Foster was. At the very best, his career is over. So one must conclude that the evidence the FBI have found is such that it simply could not be ignored. In other words, it’s the smoking gun!

      I believe the Clinton Mob must have had something over Comey that they were able to use as threats. Maybe he had been one of the needy cases requiring millions of charity support from the Clinton Foundation. Maybe they had him recorded on tape doing or saying something illegal. Maybe there were threats made against his family. Probably none of the above is true, but I feel they must have had something.

      When he gave the original rundown of her crimes but ended with “No reason to proceed” it made no sense. If he really wanted to give the message that he believed there was no wrong-doing he would have downplayed them. I felt that naming the crimes was his own way to show that he was under pressure from the Clinton Mafia, a cry for help even.

      After that his credibility was shot and he lost the trust of most of his agents. When this new stuff came to light he probably decided to make amends to win some support back from those who no longer trusted him. He possibly decided to hell with whatever hold the Clinton Mob have over him as it is not worth losing the last bits of credibility and integrity he still has. After all, if something happens now to members of his family everyone will know who to blame. And if his agents cannot trust the man at the top the FBI will no longer function at the level it expects to.

        I’ve got many theories about the liberal love-in with Muslims. One of them is that the left actually thinks it can overcome radical Islam by creating some sort of hybrid, westernised version with all the ‘good’ stuff left in (ie, strong communities, anti-westernism, anti-Christianity, anti-Israel, cous-cous, the call to prayer, and those nice Moorish murals and things one sees on holiday in Seville) and all the ‘bad’ stuff left out, such as patriarchy, oppression of women, gays, fundamentalism, killing etc. You have to remember the left has its roots in nonconformist Christianity and the idea of David (unarmed feminised liberal niceness) defeating Goliath (fundamentalist Islam) is a strong one with them.

          Can`t say I agree Cranmer on this occasion.
          Greatly respect your views, but feel that this isn`t quite right.
          Christianity has long been banished from this theatre-had it been any kind of barrier, it would have been persecuted.
          But neither side(Islam and Socialism) cares enough so to do.
          Yes, the Left in the UK DID have that Methodism/Marxist root way back-the likes of Frank Field would represent that.
          But in the new global era-the Left HATE any nationalist variant of the utopian one world pansocialism that they reckon to be part of. So Methodism isn`t far off child abuse in their eyes, despite the efforts of Paul Flowers to square their circle for them.
          IN fact, i`d argue that Islam and the Left share a LOT of common ground-they both believe in the perfectability of Man by his own efforts, the right to judge and usher in their apocalyptic vsersion of an earthly utopia.
          Where-funnily enough-they rule, dispense justice and deal with the opposition in the same ways.
          Both hate the USA and Israel, both want money sanctified by themselves and to determine who`s to be laughed at, and who`s to be processed by their State, their heaven here on earth.
          Socialism by the way will go under the Muslim boot very soon…Islam will be fought by Judeo-Christians as of old, I fear.
          Jesus wins. Not prettily though, the longer we live in this stew of Lefties and Islam.

          I think you are right, Cranmer.

          We have an example in our time. The BBC with its current Reith Lecture series is trying to undo, weaken and dilute the Bible (and by implication the Koran) and will no doubt continue to try to blur all the edges – country, colour and culture are next in line for the treatment – so that Islam can merge seamlessly with Judao-Christianity. This will no doubt be part of a rolling programme. Islam in the west, with some politicians in tow from US, UK and the EU, will go along with it all until everything is in place.

          Then it will bite!

            Think you`re reducing the overseening ascendency of Islam to the elite. They`re petrified not of Cliff Richard, but of Lee Rigby and Charlie Hebdo.
            So there`s surely no read-across or equivalence between their scorn for the Bible and its Jewish/Christian flowerings.
            And their craven, ignorant and utterly supine indulgence of Islam and its Coran.
            The Left will do a Von Papen when the New Akhis come along. This`ll give them “key roles” in things like Transport, hoping that this will give them the imprimateur of being sanctified by the liberal left elite.
            They`ll only need Education though. Hitler knew as much too.In fact, they`ve already got bridgeheads via Trojan Horse.

              AS, their scorn for things Christian at the BBC was probably starting long before Islam really made an impact in the UK, probably sometime in the 1970s at the latest, if not a decade earlier. Remember who Mary Whitehouse went after first?

              I think it is at the back of the BBC minds that if they dilute Christian culture, especially the Bible, then Muslims will at some point be compliant and only too pleased to reciprocate by toning down the bits of the Koran that clash with their BBC Liberal elite values. Then, as you suggest there will be qpq offered: administrative or legislative authority. This back and forth of ‘we’ll scratch your back if you scratch ours’ will reach the point when Islam feels secure enough to impose a harder line.

              It will bite the hand that housed it, clothed it, fed it until it worked or supported it if not.

              Then it will be too late for a compromised media and a compromised political elite to do anything about it.

          Unthinking tolerance from a position of faith-lessness and moral vagueness and easy-going delegation to ‘government (or others) to do something’ will lead to a subjugation of the UK by corruption and eventually by others. We see this happening now in the UK and also worldwide in sports. It will spread wider, into other areas of life. It probably has or is starting to do so already.

          The only hope for the British is a national revival of faith, morals and spirit. Maybe being tugged back towards the tentacles of the EU will bring a shock to the UK that starts this process off.

          Perhaps it will start in Wales and Scotland with an increasing rejection of the leaders claiming, purporting to represent their peoples’ best interests.

    And cut-priced Laura’s little fib…? Well. this evening she tells BBC viewers that the FBI ‘found Hillary Clinton NOT GUILTY of criminal acts over her emails’

    No. The previous decision was that there was not sufficient evidence of wrong doing to bring those changes in a court of law.

    There was no NOT GUILTY verdict, Laura.

    The next time the BBC have some speed-dialled eco-socialist establishing the superiority of his position on ‘climate change’ by bludgeoning his opponent with shrieks of ‘It’s indisputable peer reviewed science!’, bear this in mind:

    There’s just one problem: science is in deep trouble. Last year, Richard Horton, editor of the Lancet, referred to fears that ‘much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue’ and that ‘science has taken a turn toward darkness.’There’s just one problem: science is in deep trouble. Last year, Richard Horton, editor of the Lancet, referred to fears that ‘much of the scientific literature, perhaps half, may simply be untrue’ and that ‘science has taken a turn toward darkness.’

    ….Richard Smith, a former editor of the British Medical Journal, describes peer review as a roulette wheel, a lottery and a black box. He points out that an extensive body of research finds scant evidence that this vetting process accomplishes much at all. On the other hand, a mountain of scholarship has identified profound deficiencies.

    …..A significant part of the problem is that anyone can start a scholarly journal and define peer review however they wish. No minimum standards apply and no enforcement mechanisms ensure that a journal’s publicly described policies are followed. Some editors admit to writing up fake reviews under cover of anonymity rather than going to the trouble of recruiting bona fide referees. Two years ago it emerged that 120 papers containing computer-generated gibberish had survived the peer review process of reputable publishers.

    Not that The Horrorbin would ever contemplate such heresy, even if it does come from scientists (honest ones, that is).

    Let’s hear it once again Roger!

        Good point.

        Also worth pointing out there is no room for ‘consensus’ in science either (by which the BBC means a majority – even though that is a bogus claim in itself).

        It has been claimed that the H. pylori theory was ridiculed by the establishment scientists and doctors, who did not believe that any bacteria could live in the acidic environment of the stomach. Marshall has been quoted as saying in 1998 that “(e)veryone was against me, but I knew I was right.”

        And then

        On the other hand, it has also been argued that medical researchers showed a proper degree of scientific scepticism until the H. pylori hypothesis could be supported by evidence.

        Goodness gracious, ‘scepticism’ in science too. How positively archaic.

    Just finished watching live streaming of the latest Trump rally in Golden Colorado….something is really happening folks, and I mean really happening in the US! Trump was utterly brilliant from start to finish. He was articulate, precise, vicious, ruthless, and magnificent.

    He is starting to believe, and his supporters are too. You have to witness the way he talks about the corrupt, traitorous media…it’s utterly brilliant! He has called them out and has shown to his people how they truly are, and their true intentions…just as our traitorous Al Shabeeb are doing here in the UK. I genuinely believe that the US public are going to abandon the MSM and their disgusting, devious lies and brainwashing. Trump actually said to the crowd “see those liars behind you (the media)…they have a shock coming… They are finished when I get into office. They are dead. They will get absolutely nothing from me. They are finished”….ladies and gentlemen, this is everything we have been hoping for!!

    God bless Donald Trump. God bless The USA for always being the ones who save the rest of the world from tyranny and evil…..I genuinely think he is going to do it

    Sad for those it happened to, and their families, but we can only hope that they are the ones with the carrying the placards welcoming the migrants, and not the ones opposing them.

    Some readers might remember that a couple of weeks ago I posted a piece on Huma Abedin Hilary Clintons Saudi Puppet master. Well it looks like the chickens have come home and now she’s in the full glare of the spot light.

    Even the BBC tonight has had to acknowledge that there are only two possibilities one that the FBI have found some very serious information, or that there are another shed load of E mails which crooked Hilary has failed to disclose. Either of these would put an end to the Presidency if she was elected to office.

    There is no way that the FBI would announce an investigation this close to an election if it did not have hard evidence of serious wrong doing.

    Tonight all of Clintons lead over Trump has vanished and this isn’t over yet.

    The fact is that the Clintons have a habit of distracting from each successive scandal only with the innovation of the next brand new scandal.

    How on earth is it Britain’s responsibility ? France let them in through their porous border controls , its their responsibility.
    If they are ‘children’ how the heck did they cross the whole of Europe alone ? Where are their parents ?
    I am afraid I don’t believe that they are unaccompanied children .
    Once they are let in to our country many of their parents will claim them and will follow them in . They are in France , they belong to France.
    What is more, France is a larger country than Britain.
    Why is Al Beeb banging the gong for the migrants when we have so many British children seeking foster parents . The EU by its indecisiveness has made a mess of it. Al Beeb is making a mess of it and our government allows it . Al Beeb is so much out of touch with the people of Britain .
