    I’m no fan of sport and I can’t say I’ve even heard of Louis Smith but this is astonishing:

    Four-time Olympic medallist Louis Smith has been suspended for two months by British Gymnastics over a video in which he appeared to mock Islam.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/gymnastics/37832754

    The so-called “Analysis” at the bottom of the article left me with a shudder going down my back.

    Craig Heap – BBC Sport gymnastics summariser on BBC Radio 5 live:

    “I have been concerned for Louis’ safety after he was talking about receiving death threats”.

    “I worry about him as a person – who is advising him to make these errors of judgement?”.

    It seems the BBC are plumbing new depths defending Islam and in their quest to drag us into a world where you can’t think or say a thing.

    North Korea literally looks like a free country compared to the BBC. Milo Yiannopoulos is 1000% right with what he says about BBC.

    And death threats from The Religion of Peace?.

    There’s a contradiction if ever there was one.

      . . . who is advising him to make these errors of judgement?

      Rowan Atkinson, with a bit of luck, a consistent opponent of any legislation that criminalises free speech (or ‘racial and religious hatred’, if you will).

      This from 2004, at the time of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Bill, but only one of several pertinent examples: ‘To criticise a person for their race is manifestly irrational and ridiculous. But to criticise their religion: that is a right. That is a freedom. And a law that attempts to say you can criticise or ridicule ideas, as long as they are not religious ideas, is a very peculiar law indeed. It all points to the promotion of the idea there should be a right not to be offended . . . In my view, the right to offend is far more important than any right not to be offended.’

      A right to offend—in this particular case, a right to mock religion—that Craig Heap, the BBC more generally, and British Gymnastics are unable to conceptualise, let alone understand.

      Smith’s treatment has been simply appalling, why has no public figure come to his defence? We here of course no the answer. It feels increasingly like we are sleep walking towards totalitarianism. Free speech is something that we are no longer allowed to practice and the Beeb is complicit in confining it.
      A good article in The Spectator on it

        His treatment has been appalling, but Smith himself has been appalling, too. He has been appallingly cowardly, craven and sycophantic in his fawning public apology to the dark masters of the religion of hell. Shame on him for exercising zero independent / critical thinking or expressing a reasoned viewpoint grounded in fact / research.

          I think that’s a bit harsh, DB.

          He’s a gymnast, not a politician or philosopher.

          One can imagine that all sorts of mockery of Islam goes on, including being recorded on video. He has been unfortunate in that in his case it has come to public attention because of his relatively high profile.

          The onus should be much more on the (one would like to think) more mature people running his sport to do the right thing.

      There was an excellent example of this on R4’s Today programme.
      Apparently, tired of outputting round-the-clock anti-trump propaganda, the team decided to devote face-to-face airtime to a querulant queer who had been persuing the Met in the courts for NINE YEARS! as they had not taken a heinous homo hate crime seriously enough. A neighbour had called him “a poof” and had not been summarily executed by an obliging PC PC plod. Truly the crime of the century.
      “No apology or compensation can make up for my 9 year long struggle for justice” he moaned to a sympathetic Jim. What a waste of time and money.

      I’ve just been watching a video of an interview Milo gave to a BBC nonentity.
      Instead of accepting the lazy assumptions the BBC always base their questions on, he very wisely challenges them. Most politicians nowadays seem too stupid to realise they are being asked loaded questions.

          Yes, I was guilty of a terrible understatement. For a man who has been dismissed as merely a provocateur and self-publicist, Milo did slaughter the BBC nonentity, but also provides a very concise and incisive analysis of the various PC tyrannies as well.

          Have just seen the Smith crime on NewsShite. It’s like a return to Maoist China where a political zealot could denounce anyone as a “member of a revisionist clique” or an “imperialist running dog”, words and phrases that are about as meaningful as “xenophobe” or “transgender hate-crime”.
          Geert Wilders now on trial again for asking his audience whether they wanted more or fewer Moroccans in Holland. Of course, they wanted fewer. For some reason this merits a court case.
          It’s just simply a policy of making examples of well-known people who are not toeing the “party” line. The message is then clear to less influential members of society.

        I saw recently that some “Watchmen of the Word” took it upon themselves to militate over the correct use of the hyphen.
        We secondary mods were never taught such things, apparantly it would have to be a “grammar school thing”.

      It means that Sharia law applies to the indigenous, non muslin population.

      In no reports I have seen, has anyone mentioned the continuous death threats Louis Smith has received. Making a joke about a lunatic religion is now more serious for the liberals on TV than religious nutters threatening to murder a person.

      Sheer madness and it can only get worse.

      Sgb – What this whole episode emphasis es to me is how Islam appears to be totally incompatable with a modern secular society. The sort of Society most Beeboids espouse that they like the best

      For years in this country Christianity has had Dick Emery, Dave Allen, Father Ted, Black Adder, and so forth poking fun at the established state religion. And yet I dont remember too many death threats being issued from established church goers.

      Whilst Louis Smith comes across as a bit of a knob – what he did was essentially harmless yet we have all this fulminating and knashing of teeth about well – nothing really.

      This appears to be part of some sort of strategy where most things can be mocked except Islam – because obviously their feelings are much more important than everyone else s . It therefore follows that their culture must be more important too …..

      What disgusts me is the sheer hypocrisy of the BBC encouraging all this faux outrage and “Islamaphobia accusations at the expense of the society and culture that raised it.

      Up until recently we had a society that on the whole was at ease with itself. We now to have a new element which seems to be slowly taking over (encouraged by the MSM and vote hungry lefties) that is only at ease with the complete subjugation of all other views which are at variance with its medieval and puritanical diktats

      The worm now appears to be turning – lets hope it hurries up before its too late!

        Seemed to have ballsed up my post

        What I meant to have said is that I totally agree with all the opprobrium currently being heaped on Louis Smiths Head.

        How dare he poke fun at such a virtuous and and benign “religion” – Little bastard.

        I mean its not as if some of them are against homosexuality, throw gays off buildings, undertake FGM, commit mass sex attacks on Kuffar women, stone to death adulterers, kill apostates blah blah blah.

        No – none of that is true. Fortunately the BBC will always be there to remind us that Islam is the true religion of peace and encourage us to support sharia law as some sort of benign equivalence to English law and help to bang another nail into the coffin of free speech by screaming “Islamaphobia ” at any one who might object.

    From Press Association

    “The BBC has been accused of racism after it posted a video online asking “Black people and fried chicken – is there any truth in it?”

    The corporation put the video on Newsbeat’s Twitter feed, on the last day of Black History Month, to promote a documentary about racism faced by black people in today’s Britain.

    A tagline, “Black people and fried chicken – is there any truth in it?”, which accompanied the clip was later removed.

    The video was later reposted with a change in accompanying text, stating: “We’re talking about being black and British, the stereotypes you might face, like this one?”

        Israel qualifying for the Qatar World Cup? That would be something, especially if Iran also qualified and was drawn to play the Israelis. They would pretend that the entire team had come down with a mysterious disease in order to avoid competing against the hated Jews.

        Then FIFA would be obliged to expel them from Qatar, they would leave in disgrace, there would be endless wailing and gnashing of teeth in the Muslim world and the BBC would call for the Israelis to be banned from all FIFA competitions until they gave Jerusalem to the Palestinians.

    Noted late on the Today programme this morning some actor (Jared Harris ?) being interviewed by Nick Robinson, regarding a new 60-episode period drama – ‘The Crown’ on Netflix.

    Right up front, the Beeboid says that ‘many’ believe that this is just the sort of series that really should be on the BBC, and infers they just can’t afford it. How unfair everything is in this time of cuts and economies at the BBC.

    Two options for the BBC, mate.

    1. Find, somewhere in the midst of all of the infernal BBC tripe and virtue signalling across the world, from the annual BBC budget of £4.5 billion (essentially funded by taxation), the money to do it.

    2. Give up on the Licence fee and, if the BBC is as good as you think it is, let it go directly into competition with the likes of Netflix as a commercial TV player, and stop using the Licence Fee as a platform to compete with, and to bully, other media players who aren’t essentially funded by a tax.

    Or, as I suspect will happen, you could just keep on moaning about needing even more TV tax income because you are now having to face some real competition for a change.

    In 2014 said government agreed a deal with a Michael Carrick, who did not come over very well when interviewed on the program (I wouldn’t trust him with the kids’ pocket money). In another interview, David Davies – recently castigated for questioning the legality of 38yr old “children” – was given a fair interview. A first for the BBC?

    To be fair, a well researched piece of investigative journalism.

      Jerry Springer: The Opera is a British musical written by Richard Thomas and Stewart Lee, based on the television show The Jerry Springer Show. The musical contains irreverent treatment of Christian themes, extensive profanity, and surreal images, such as a troupe of tap-dancing Ku Klux Klan members…..

      Jerry Springer: The Opera was the subject of controversy beginning in January 2005, when its UK television broadcast on BBC Two elicited 55,000 complaints.[1] The organisation Christian Voice led street protests against the screening at nine BBC offices[2] and announced their intention to bring blasphemy charges, due to the depictions of the Christian characters in Act II. The Christian Institute attempted to bring a private prosecution against the BBC,[3] but the Magistrates Court refused to issue a summons, a decision which was later upheld by the High Court of Justice.

      Compare and contrast, eh?

      The BBC – Buggering up Britain Completely.

      Just caught a tory MP at question time asking the PM will she and the house condemn the Muslim death threats against the Athlete Mr Smith – but disgracefully the whole house was silent! (one would have liked at least a one MP to condemn those death threats yet not one MP raised their voice in outrage)

      And the PM wasn’t much better in her condemnation of those threats!? In fact she really struggled/hesitated in her answer/so called condemnation of said death threats!?

      Maybe the reason why the PM/MPs were so silent in their condemnation of said Muslim threats was because the MP happened to mention the “hated of all words”: Christian?

    Silent Counter-Coup by 17 Intel Agencies To Stop Crooked Clintons

    Bill Still reporting on an ongoing counter-coup being run by patriotic members of 17 U.S. intelligence agencies to stop the Clinton Crime syndicate from proceeding with the rigging of the coming election.
    According to a 4 minute video, done by Dr. Steve Pieczenik, a Harvard and MIT-educated psychiatrist who has written 26 New York Times Best Sellers, the Clinton coup has been put down by an intelligence community counter-coup, effective at noon today.

      magicoat. That is an intriguing video, when the Director of the FBI suddenly announced they were investigating Hilliary and members of her coterie in what is the final run in to the election; I thought that something big behind the scenes had happened to trigger it.

      I had a strong feeling that Trump would win the election since he won the nomination, it now appears that there are forces within the U.S. Establishment that REALLY don’t want the Clintons as residents, (again) of Pensylvania Avenue.

      After this I would be amazed if Trump loses, when he wins hopefully he’ll loose Chris Christie and Trey Gowdie on both her and her and Bill’s “Foundation”; with the result that they and it will be destroyed politically and financially.

      You’re right but there is an added (and very troubling) extra dimension to this.

      The BBC is not alone in its rabid support for this corrupt and inept old woman. Most of the British media seem to be in the same camp. The Telegraph is every bit as blind and banal in its support as the Guardian, and as for Sky… well, it could be giving lessons to the North Koreans.

      What we are seeing here is the reality of the yawning gulf between what ‘ordinary people’ think and what our governing ‘elite’ thinks. We saw it during the Brexit campaign and we are seeing it again and, as so often, it is mirrored back and forth across the Atlantic.

      When it comes, the the UK and the USA may need more thorough revolutions than we have been assuming.

The first thing they do is rush into a desperate frenzy of schmoozing, hob-nobbing and favour-begging in order to get a place in the trough when the new sovereign (Victoria) hands out the freebies (land, sinecures, honours etc).

          I suspect the media and other members of the liberal elites are starting to realise that if Trump gets in, they are going to have to do something similar, or be left out in the cold, and it is scaring them witless.

      Have they adjusted these figures for people born in the UK? It is hardly surprising that those people fresh out of a tractor tyre in Dover are under represented in boardrooms.

      Given the age of the average boardroom member vs the speed of demographic change, I think it is only fair to compare ‘like with like’ and compare the demographics of the boardroom with the demographics of the country when the boardroom members were born – e.g. average age of boardroom is 55 years old, then demographics of 1961 should be used. That way we can compare whether we have equality of outcome. If so, then we can naturally assume that in 50 years time the boardroom will reflect the demographics as they are now.

        Exactly, and the BBC should reflect this in their own quotas (if they must have them) taking account the age of their workforce, and not some future desired demographic of the UK like they have.

        By chasing some target based on what the UK might become, what the BBC are effectively doing is slamming the door firmly shut on University and school leavers that just happen to be white. The BBC is now a racist organisation.

        Perhaps the new series of More Or Less just about to start could examine the futility of chasing demographic targets.

I assumed the driver was drunk from the night before and gave a wide berth while overtaking. I glanced at the driver as I passed and he was watching a video on his mobile phone while driving (probably iplayer 😉 ).

      I don’t have a dashcam and didn’t want to use my phone while driving, so I didn’t get his licence plate or phone the police. I just hope that when the inevitable happens, it is him vs an articulated lorry driver and not a family.

          Gaxvil, I’m not a lawyer but I believe it’s to do with the difficulty of proving guilty intent (mens rea) as opposed to proving guilty action (actus reas). Both must be proven to convict someone of murder. If you wander the streets with an axe and kill someone with it, unless you’re a lumberjack it’s pretty clear evidence of guilty intent. If you drive around in a car and hit someone with it it’s hard to prove that was actually your intent. I have heard it said that for this reason, running someone over is the ‘safest’ way of killing someone.

          Sadly, be it immolation, vaporisation, bullet to the neck or beheading, it likely matters not to the victims. At least all were/are relatively quick.

    An appalling interview on Radio 4 Today between Humphries and Noncy Soderberg a Clinton supporter, but even she cannot stomach the rank bias of Humphries.

    Why aren’t Americans voting for Clinton because she is a woman (with the suggestion that anyone who does not for that reason alone is clearly a thought criminal who doesn’t deserve to live).

    Soderberg seems genuinely shocked at this suggestion and countered that women in the US would be horrified and the only ones who might support this would be those close to retirement.

    Then there was the claim that all of the Clintons terrible history was nothing more than mud slinging and that there was nothing behind any of it.

    Again Soderberg was having none of it and explained that she thought Clinton was a weak candidate lacking the skills needed in several key areas.

    So Humphries moves on to a heckler who should clearly have been an unperson who shouted “Bill Clinton is a rapist” at one of Hilaries rallies.
    We are then treated to Hillaries response which was far from what the BBC claimed it was.

    When the BBC bias is so great that you are even shocking the Democrat Deputy National Security Advisor and an Ambassador at the United Nations then you know that the bias is simply out of control !

      Libtard cognitive dissonance is a real wonder to behold. The BBC, along with 98% of the rest of the regressive msm will fight to the bitter end to protect the Clinton Crime Family and try and get them into power (again). So much depends on this. The entire regressive agenda – everything from eroding free speech to the global CAGW climate scam – depends on Hillary taking the throne next week.

      If Trump gets in (and I think he will) regressives know their goose is cooked, perhaps for an entire generation. Here in the rest of the world, we can hopefully look forward to better relations with Putin and Russia and a real effort, jointly, to eradicate Islamic State vermin (and all other Islamist murderers).

      If the BBC’s preferred candidate gets in, we will be going to war (again) in foreign misadventures designed solely to promote a divisive, calculated agenda to erode national borders and cultures in favour of creating a solid regressive voter base (Hillary wants a 550% increase in migrants from repressive, intolerant cultures) which might see the Republicans locked out of office for decades to come.

      Come on Trump – this is an existential moment and the stakes are huge.

          That list is endless…and all bad! Our society, our culture, or very way of life is being raped by traitorous bastards on the left who hate themselves and their own people, and death cult followers who are only interested in raping innocent white girls and getting into paradise after blowing up a shopping centre

      I’m sure I saw something earlier on the BBC website about Eritrean and Afghan children fighting in Paris but it seems to have vanished, probably just a water fight getting out of hand anyway. Talking of things vanishing from the BBC, both myself and a friend can recall an announcement made a good few years ago on R4 Today, it pertained to a male correspondent who was leaving but would return as a woman, can anyone remember who it was? Just a bit of trivia with no importance but neither of us can remember the name, might just have dreamt it of course.

    Having kept away from the BBC’s sewage pipe as much as possible lately, I had missed the pleasure of Michael Goldfarb’s ‘The Unswayables’ which is currently pouring out of R4, apparently out of control.

    Goldfarb is spinning lie upon lie. According to this faux-conservative (who has lived in the UK since the 1980s – always telling, that), ‘talk radio’ in the USA that is ‘poisoning the well’ of political discourse in the USA. No mention of why it was needed – to counterbalance the far-Left US media. Apparently, talk radio’s hosts are ‘ultra Right-wing’ (Nazis to a man, obviously) and that ‘if you add in Fox news’ the overwhelming media bias in the USA if hugely in favour of Trump. Ah yes, and this ‘Right wing’ media selectively quotes Hilary Clinton in Trump’s favour. Really.

    Yet more shame on the BBC for broadcasting this barefaced pack of distortions, lies and misrepresentations. Full marks for having found someone they can pretend is a ‘conservative’ to push their far-Left propaganda for them.

Thanks to her disastrous immigration policy, she is about to get bitten by a much bigger one at the ballot box.

      Dear Boss,

      As the BBC have just predicted Armageddon and World War III due to Brexit and the US Republican candidate I feel that I owe it to my family to protect them and build a Faraday Cage to shield them from the constant communist communications emanating from W1A. As I have just heard that inflation is set to become 4% next year according to the most eminent experts no-one outside Bush House has heard of, it is imperative that I source the materials immediately before Donald Tusk bans the import of German razor wire to the UK.

      Or you could say No. They got £4 billion a year to spout anti-christian sentiments all year and you want me to support their Islamist regime for one day of pretend we all love each other?

      Goeff,
      I completely agree, the reaction in the House was for once a stony silence. These political cowards know that this is a real problem and they are fantastically burying their heads in the sand.

      Andrew Neil’s comment was also worrying. He believed the most important question for the Papers was that on FIFA. No mention as you rightly point out Geoff, on Louis Smith.

      Theresa the Appeasers response was typically weak. We must be tolerant of death threats coming our way. We must be tolerant of Islam governing what we can or cannot say. We must be tolerant of people who abuse our right to free speech and free expression.

      Theresa NO WE DON’T NEED TO BE TOLERANT. Tolerant is a hijacked Lefty word. Theresa the Tolerant.
      What a weak drip of a woman she is. I hoped she’d be different. I was wrong. I’m still UKIP. Stuff Islam. Stuff the rest of those weak crony politicians. Vaz on the Justice Select committee, Theresa supporting the religious abuse on our people. Stuff them all.

Her answer to the question about Louis Smith classifies her as a grade 1 Quisling, not a PM for the British people.

Even if you discount some of the conspiracy arguments there is sufficient evidence in the public domain to see connections between Clinton and Saudi money. So why not investigate on these lines BBC support for Islam and Clinton, and the cosy relationship between May and Islam.

            A very interesting video GWF. Leaves one asking more questions than provides answers.

            I think most people now accept that 9/11 was a Saudi/ USA collaboration for what purpose, I’m unsure but possibly the excuse required to go to war in Iraq. Wars can and do make people very rich as the Bush family members can testify. As a result of 9/11, i am now also very suspicious about 7/7. There are so many unanswered questions, many of which we as a people are not permitted to ask in any depth.
            As I knew one of the victims of 9/11 I was asked onto a radio programme. I asked the radio presenter why did Building 7 fall down? His response to me made suggestions that I was a typical conspiracy theorist, he told me that I was on the programme only to talk about the person I knew. He was probably right but establishment have parameters which you are not allowed to cross. The cause of 9/11 is one of them. However, I did then and I still do, want to know who killed the person I once knew.
            My mistrust of politicians/ BBC/media is thus confirmed.

            Back to the video.
            My worry is that I think Trump can also be bought!Long shot here, but is it possible that agencies such as the FBI use Abedin as a mole or someone to track in order to gain information. As I said bit of a long shot.

        May said: “I think we need to ensure that yes it is right that people can have that freedom of expression, but in doing so we need to respect that that right has a responsibility too, and that responsibility is to recognise the importance of tolerance to others*”

    BBC headline: Flight MH370 ‘made rapid descent’

    BBC starts its report by saying “Flight MH370 most likely made a rapid and uncontrolled descent into the Indian Ocean, a new report says.”

    Uncontrolled decent the BBC states. I.e. accident.

    This is important, if MH370 was flown deliberately in to the sea you might say the Islamic captain, Zaharie Ahmad Shah, murdered the individuals on board. If it were an accident, as the BBC hopes, then it isn’t another Islamist terrorist action.

    However, the only words the BBC quote from the report are:
    ‘Satellite data also indicated a “high and increasing rate of descent”, said the report.
    “You can draw your own conclusions as to whether that means someone was in control or not,” the ATSB’s search director Peter Foley told reporters.’

    The BBC, king of the deceivers.
