    Sad news it seems… unless that ‘might’ that did not make it into the headline is heftier than the Graun subs assign. Here’s hoping.

    Was not so impressed with some media show apologia, or the Parliamentary inquiry dissembling, but some recent shares suggest he is going down fighting, and prepared to ask some awkward questions.

    I seem to get a twitter summary in the evening. How chosen, no idea.

    This was one:

    Ross of course has BBC political correspondent. My views, not the BBC’s

    Safe to say he seems OK with the feelings of those in the house who agree with Mr. Bercow and the BBC.

    One day there will be another secret ballot for them and no unique funding for you, Ross.

    Shock. Horror. Are you sitting down?
    In the bBBC1 6pm end of new summary, the NHS crisis was attributed in part to the ‘Growing Population’.
    Good job I was sitting down.
    This was immediately followed in my local region by the local bBBC news talking about the Housing Crisis.
    But strangely, the 300,000 annual nett migration figure did not get mentioned.
    The left continue in total denial of the elephant in the room that everyone else can see.

        Never in the history of this country has the birth rate of the indigenous population been so low. We read everyday that women are leaving it longer to have a family (if at all) in pursuit of a career, sooooooo it doesn’t take a genius to work out why there is a housing shortage or who needs them ! There is a need however for single occupancy housing, as relationships/marriages breakdown there is never enough in the financial ‘pot’ to split the proceeds and start again.

          Brissles, in liberal la-la-land, there is no such thing as an ‘indigenous population.’ We are all immigrants…there are no borders, nobody is ‘illegal’ and a family of 15 Somalis who arrived yesterday has just as much right to a house as someone whose forebears lived in England since before the Conquest and who has paid taxes all their lives.

          Of course, it’s difficult for young Tristran and Fenella to buy even a small Georgian townhouse somewhere as downmarket as Highbury, but with help from the bank of mum and dad and their trust funds they’ve just about managed, and they’re not huge earners, on £70k each, so it’s not as if there’s any sort of real housing crisis. If there is, it’s all the fault of the Tories so don’t start blaming immigrants!

      Maybe if they stop counting students coming in, as many daft Tory MPs want, the numbers will reduce significantly.
      How they would not count students leaving again – in considerably fewer numbers – remains to be clarified.

We arrived on time to find a yob sitting at our booked table with a fag on, waiting for a takeaway. It then got worse, so zilch tip and never been back!

    • Oaknash says:

      Gaxvil – I think in some ways there is a lot of truth in what this bloke says. As a nation we seem incapable of any joined up thinking any more.

      Take housing or NHS waiting lists. We know what the main problem is but we seem to lack the courage to “tell it like it is”

      We have become an infantilised society with the majority of our leaders, politicians and judiciary afraid or unwilling to speak the harsh truth of what will eventually result from this slow motion destruction of our society and culture by an alien and hostile medieval religion and belief system which only knows how to take and not how to give.

      This has been aided and abetted by a toxic and manipulative MSM, cheer led by the BBC which realises the weakness of our leaders and takes every opportunity to undermine those who speak the truth and dripfeed poison into the veins of the rest of the population, so we slowly lose pride and confidence in our country, culture and traditions. Subsequently we then become totally dependent on these MSM “opinion shapers because we are afraid to have any opinions of our own anymore, in case we are seen as waycist/sexist/xenophobic or any other these mortal media sins which they keep on inventing for us.

      In effect our good nature and concern for the underdog has been turned by the liberals into a weapon which will be used against us.

      Because they live separate lives to the rest of us they either do not care or do not realise how these “invaders” will change our society for the worse.

      These days media “gesture” politics is the only game in town (as the poisonous parliamentary gnome demonstrated yesterday).

      This means that there will never be any serious attempt to tackle migration by the mainstream politicians. Hopefully UKIP will be able to get their act together enough to put up some sort of serious opposition. However while they still harbour “cuckoos such as Carswell and Neil Hamilton it is unlikely they will be able to formulate enough serious policies to be a real threat to the current status quo.

      I am afraid that in the long run people will finally realise what is happening to them and if we have not lost all of our societal cohesion then things will get very messy.

      One thing is for sure those in the media and especially the BBC bear a lot of responsibility for what is happening. I can only hope that one day there will be some sort of reckoning.

      However I expect these cynical “cultural traitors” such as Lord Hall will by this time be no longer reachable enjoying their well earned retirement in Necker Island or some similar celebrity refuge – leaving the rest of us to get on with it.

      God help us and God damm these bastards!

          I agree in some ways with what you are saying Gaxvil. But what I suppose I was trying to do was emphasise that all of these traitors operate on different levels.

          1 It is governments, politicians and the judiciary that make the decision whether to allow people into our country or not.

          2 It is the media that has facilitated the creation of conditions where many of us have lost our sense of British identity and no longer have any interest in defending our nation and culture from these aggressors.

          Whilst I do not hold any grudge over anyones skin colour. At the end of the day it is about whether incomers want to identify and embrace our culture or not. (and I do not include media “creations” as “culture”) . The ultra loyal immigrant family in the “Simpsons” though silly was actually making a serious point, though no-one wants immigrants to be deferential – I do expect a degree of appreciation when they move here and certainly not demanding with menaces.

          As far as I am concerned the BBC can stick all its confected multkulty rainbow nation ideas up “Lord” Halls arse.

          So yeah – traitors all but different types in my book.

    CBS Poll: Most Democrats Think Christianity Is as Violent as Islam

    Only one-in-seven registered Democrats in America believe that Islam is more violent as a whole than Christianity, according to a new CBS poll.

    Catastrophes such as September 11th, the War on Terror, and recent attacks throughout the world were not enough to make a difference between Christianity and Islam for some. ISIS, Al-Qaeda, and the Taliban were also overwritten.

    Republicans had a much different perspective on the matter however. Over six-in-ten believe that Islam is more violent in nature than other religions.

      One home every five minutes needs to be built to accommodate Britain’s booming migrant population, the House of Lords has been told.

      Government figures reveal that almost half of all new households will accommodate immigrants between now and 2039.

      The Department for Communities and Local Government’s household projections show there will be an average of 243,000 new households forming each year for the next 22 years – meaning an extra 5.3 million new homes could be needed to meet the needs of the growing population.

      Net migration accounts for an estimated 45 per cent of this growth, meaning an extra 2.4 million new homes will be needed to house the UK’s booming migrant population over the next 22 years. …

      The statistics were released in response to a question by Lord Green of Deddington, Chairman of Migration Watch, who claims that even based on a conservative estimate 300 homes a day would need to be built to accommodate new arrivals.

    • Sir_Arthur_Strebe-Grebling says:

      The bBBC never mentions any of the reasons for the ‘housing crisis’, because they all contradict their leftie mindset.
      1. Lots of women choose to live separately from the father(s) of their children. The men have to live somewhere, so the number of houses needed goes up.
      2. Millions of foreigners have been encouraged to come here, being paid minimum wages to do menial jobs to support the extravagant metropolitan lfestyles.
      3. There is no such thing as a property market. Prices don’t reflect supply and demand. No-one ever sells below the highest number they can think of. People are encouraged to think that property is the only asset that will never go down in value.
      4. House prices in London and the southeast have been pushed to ridiculous levels by the greedy people who live in that part of the country, which includes nearly all bBBC staff and other media people. Lots of parents bemoan the fact that their children can’t buy a house, whilst boasting about the inflated figure that they’ll try to sell their own property for, too stupid to make a connection.
      5. They never talk about having somewhere to live, it’s always ‘getting on the property ladder’, thus reinforcing the idea that prices will keep going up. We need a few ‘property snakes’.
      Most beeboids live in a city and hate the rural areas, so they keep advertising the housebuilders’ view that they should be allowed to despoil the countryside to build more houses.

      This program must have been a BBC Censorship fest. I was under the impression that the Climategate emails where originally sent by an insider to Paul Hudson at the BBC, but Hudson who is in fact thought to be the most relevantly qualified scientist employed by the BBC, put it under censorship for fear of being sacked by the BBC, on the advice of the thugs at the University of East Anglia. The BBC program would have censored the mentioned BBC staff in almost two hundred of the emails, such facts as Harrabin being appointed to the advisory board of Tyndall Centre, despite having the scientific qualifications of a moron.

      Ten reasons why you cannot believe what you see and hear on the BBC:
      (1) You can know what has been censored
      (2) You are not sure that something has been censored
      (3) You think about Questions not asked, which imply censorship
      (4) Relevantly qualified People not invited imply censorship
      (5) Brexit majority is not represented on BBC, implying censorship
      (6) Bill Cash, Lord Owen and Mensa member Gerard Batten who all produced Brexit plans are never interviewed on the BBC, implying censorship of Brexit plans
      (7) The two Members of Parliament who are also scientists. Tory MP Peter Lilley and Labour MP Graham Stringer are never interviewed by the BBC, implying censorship
      (8) (Falsification Of The Atmospheric CO2 Greenhouse Effects Within The Frame Of Physics, Gerhard Gerlich, 2009) is censored by the BBC/UEA
      (9) (Unified Theory of Climate, Ned Nikolov & Karl Zeller, 2011) which replaces the formula in Computer models, is censored by the BBC/UEA
      (10) Details of the roll of the BBC in Climategate have been censored by that BBC program

      Totally agree Peter – I think that has been the main thrust of the BBC ever since Trump has been elected. They do not want brexit to succeed so like all good traitors and fifth columnists do, they are doing their level best to poison the well in the hopes that Trump will eventually wash his hands of us and we are forced to approach Junkers rapidly diminishing table in sack cloth and ashes and holding a begging bowl.

      It is quite telling that in her normal gutless style Theresa has not said a word to admonish either the BBC or the Poison dwarf Bercow for their recent septic conduct with regard to Trump.

      As I have said before The Teezer is true to form in backing two horses at once. Unfortunately both horses are tied together and one of the horses now carries a terminal infection of parasites whilst the other is health and wants to head for sunny pastures. Because Theresa will not release the rope if the diseased horse falls it will drag the healthy one down with it.

      The BBC and the MSM try to pretend it is all about race and colour when the truth is that it is all about freedom and ideas. Not since WW2 have we faced such a major threat to our culture and society. Aided and abetted by a perfidious and lying media.

      Now is the time for brave decisions and political visionaries and I am afraid all we have got leading us is a low grade clerk!

      (No offense to clerks I used to be one myself!)

      One hopes that Mr Trump can tell the difference between the professional political class and media, who make a lot of ‘sound and fury, signifying nothing’ and the wealth-creating, hard-working types who keep industry and commerce going. One good sign is that Mr Farage was invited to speak with Mr Trump long before Mrs May – which suggests that Mr Trump doesn’t particularly care about what UK politicians/media think.

    I only encounter the BBC via radio and I’m starting to sense blowback via call-ins and even guests. Case in point was the late show on 5Live(5th) with Steven Nolan. After Nolan, Edwina Currie and some other shill were lambasting Trump relentlessly some caller had clearly had enough and burst the echochamber bubble. It was sweet to hear and the Trump bashing was notably toned down after.
    Question is will the moderators and vetters allow this to continue or will intelligent opinion calling out the BBC be allowed to air in the future. I’m not optimistic.

      CubaBlue, I definitely sense that there is widespread, if discrete, support for Mr Trump across Britain, generally by those who dig a little deeper into stories than the mainstream media. Interestingly, the Guardian ran a story on the government’s various crackdowns on the ‘far right’. The top rated comment said that if immigration was properly controlled, none of this would be an issue. So if even the liberal left are thinking along those lines, Mr T may have more support than we think.

    Because the Islamic Al Beeb feel such unimaginable prejudice, anger, intolerance and bigotry towards President Trump, they desperately snatch at every negative story about him, regardless of the facts or from whatever source.

    The Islamic Al Beeb utterly despise President Trump, and that hatred has led them to shoot their load all over their cuck wife Islam, as this debate in court will be proven legally justified, and will set the precedent for banning terrorists from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan…..because all terrorists are Muslim, and Islam is terrorism

    Brilliant stuff President Trump! You and your team are truly magnificent!

    P.S: At the very bottom of the article is this hilarious statement….

    “Polls suggest that US public opinion is sharply divided on the issue”

    Which in English means that once again the majority back Trump. Brillant stuff Al Shabeeb! Never seen the very definition of politics itself used to justify your hatred

    The BBC is shedding tears over a Democratic woman, Elizabeth Warren, being bullied by a horrible, nasty, smelly republican. She has, the BBC item says, been prevented from speaking during a debate because she tried to read a letter from Martin Luther Kings widow.

    Ah, the shame, the racism, the evil , the misogyny …yawn, yawn.

    Except that the BBC forgot to actually say why she has been banned from speaking. Easily done I guess. Apparently. She was trying to accuse a member of the house of racism, the equivalent of non parliamentary behaviour in the UK. She tried a number of times and then was using the words in the letter to make the same allegation, hence why, after repeated warnings, she was banned from speaking.

    BTW The BBC would be better entertaining us with Warren’s delightful presentation of herself as a woman of colour. “A 1997 Fordham Law Review piece described her as Harvard Law School’s “first woman of color,” based upon an August 6, 1996 phone interview with the news director at Harvard Law, Michael Chmura. The claim is based upon having ancestry of 1/32nd American Indian which she was unable to support”

    This is what Ms Warren thinks a woman of colour looks like:

      G – Deserves highlighting: Thousands of crimes kept secret by Swedish police. Guess why?
      https://gatestone.eu/the-ball-starts-rolling/
      The Code 291 Åsenlöv mentions is a special ‘refugee code’, used when the police are called for anything related to refugees. Swedish newspaper Svenska Dagbladet has an article on the topic, which reveals the code (R291) has been used since October 2016 to effectively hide 5000 incidents, ranging from illness and missing persons, to cases of assault, rapes and deaths. And what is most shocking, is that all these cases were deliberately kept secret:
      “The National Operational Department (NOA) of the Swedish Police wrote in a document this newspaper noticed that each and every notification ‘in which the victim, the suspect or anyone questioned is a migrant, must be labelled with the specific code 291’. And that the same has to be done to to crimes or events linked to buildings or places where refugees are received.”
      Things are bad in Sweden. So bad, nobody is allowed to know.

    I listened to the BBC’s Hugh Pym’s lengthy feature 1800 Hrs yesterday evening on the BBC 1 news. It related to the NHS and Care in the Community. Pym’s report was dire by any stretch of the imagination.
    I have to go into hospital later this year for major surgery so all and any report on the state of the NHS will impinge on my thinking and perhaps growing apprehension. I actually felt better after Pym’s report had ended believe it or not. My reasoning? Well, the so-called “news” from the BBC is so distorted and biased (if not very relevant issues and aspects omitted altogether) that it has, for me, well dropped beneath the point of credibility. Its accuracy simply cannot be trusted. Any vestige of balanced reporting has long gone. It may help the viewers/listeners if the BBC published a list of their propaganda headings so the licence fee payer was alerted to the bias during broadcast. I suppose I am really suggesting that, along with the warnings pre news item about, “scenes which may upset some viewers” and “viewers are warned that this item contains flashing lights”, the viewer/listener should be given notice that the following news item(s) have been massaged/distorted by the BBC Editorial Team and will very likely be seen by some viewers/listeners as not being credible when considered objectively.

      As to your subject, how long before NHS performance index figures get added to the news – “…the FTSE was down 100 points, the pound fell 13 cents and is now worthless against the Euro, while NHS waiting time is up 18 minutes, the worst since records began…”?

      G, good luck with the surgery.

      When reading stories about the NHS at this time of year keep in mind that there are only a few weeks left before the budget, so this is the point when the spending departments pitch for more money. The NHS reinforces its reasoned case for money with the emotional pressure of endless sad stories of individuals and organisational stories of crisis. In the trade it’s known as “shroud waving”. The usual result is that the Chancellor decides to improve his “caring image” by throwing more money at the NHS – much of which will be wasted before it reaches the clinical services that genuinely need it.

      The BBC makes the most of all these stories because its political stance is that more public spending is good, even if the funds are wasted, and that the answer to any problem is more money.

    Imagine there’s no countries, John Lennon, BBC Business, and the very top people do

    BBC Business News stumbles and stutters when it comes to understanding economics and markets but when the subject of politics pops up the show knows exactly where it stands.

    This morning we have a guest British-based Australian-accented businesswoman apparently in the headhunting business making it her business to moan and wail about the supposedly Trump and Brexit bad news for business on the BBC’s Business News.

    As we would expect from the BBC there was absolutely no pushback and no challenge from the BBC presenters about this person’s views which match what the BBC thinks.

    We’re supposed to accept that for the world of high tech innovation and of fashion – the sectors which this woman claimed to know best – Trump’s temporary travel ban applicable to a handful of failed and terror infested states was going to do great harm.

    Well, I suppose if Trump gets his way the US will indeed have to do without the next Somali Bill Gates or the next Yemani Alexander McQueen. Of course they will still be more than welcome to the UK, so bully for us.

    The message was overtly political not economic but this woman was not a politician so unlike our pro-globalist politicians she was not so careful to avoid spelling out the bottom line to her world vision…

    In her own words here’s why Brexit upset this woman:

    “For the very top people, borders were beginning not to exist, in fact they still don’t exist for them”

      Think I saw a piece, probably on the BBC w/s that Kiwis are upset that American millionaires and billionaires are waltzing in to the country, little or no questions asked, and buying residences as possible bolt-holes because they do not like Trump or should Trump turn nasty.

      The right to migrate to the US is probably highly restricted for the ordinary Kiwi, especially if of white, British stock.

        I’m not sure an organised boycott of the BBC would succeed. What’s more likely is a gradual dropping off of revenue, as young people used to watching Iplayer never bother to sign up for a licence when leaving home, the number of immigrants increases (who are not likely to understand or bother about the licence) and the older, BBC-loyal generation gradually dies off. The BBC will then either have to move to a subscription only model, or be funded by general taxation.

      EE, “A BBC Spokesperson said: “Douglas Carswell opposing the licence fee is nothing new, but the public supports the licence fee as the best way of funding the BBC and there was overwhelming backing for a strong and independent BBC during the Government’s recent consultation.”

      Well done, Sir .. or Madam, it appears you have caught the BBC resorting to that awful ‘populism’ again!

    Interesting – here and in the US, the media has become the official political opposition filling the vacuum created by the collection of sulky and irrational types we have on both sides of the pond.

    Wow I’m posting a story from the proCorbyn Canary website.

    “The BBC just tried to call out WikiLeaks. It did not end well.”
    http://www.thecanary.co/2017/02/08/bbc-just-tried-call-wikileaks-not-end-well/

    BTW I caught the prog red-handed.
    8 mins in whilst trying to build narrative they said ClimateGate was a Wikileaks scoop..false cos other people already had the leaked emails

    Segment’s FalseNarrative
    ‘Climategate leak selective, other emails debunk, so @wikileaks not reliable’

    In the AlBeebRemora section today.
    Opinion
    “I ran Clinton’s campaign, and I fear Russia is meddling with more than elections”
    Robby Mook

    BBBC readers are far too busy to read this lying, misdirecting, nonsense, so here is a synopsis.

    #1 Hillary Clinton, being guilty of both treason and causing the deaths of US embassy staff, responsibility for this rests with the Kremlin.

    #2 Hillary Clinton, being too arrogant to follow advice, jeopardised US security, responsibility for this rests with the Kremlin.

    #3 Barack Obama, being guilty of encouraging illegal immigrants to vote for Clinton, responsibility for this rests with the Kremlin.

    #4 The Democratic party having been discovered, yet again, of fiddling the election in their favour, by vote rigging, responsibilty for this rests with the Kremlin.

    #5 The Democratic party, having been discovered rigging their own, “democratic” process in favour of Clinton, responsibilty for this rests with the Kremlin.

    #6 The Democratic party, unwilling to blame themselves for the inadequacies they have shown for over a century, flails about in a failed attempt to blame WikiLeaks/Putin/anyone for their solied linen being displayed in public. Very soiled as usual. Responsibility for this rests with the Kremlin.

    Lately I have been shown to be crying Wolf and claiming that “today’s” offering from the beggars is so bad that it surpasses anything that could be created. Every time one of the “opinionated” shows how wrong I am.

    This patent rubbish is being savaged BTL, warms my old heart.

      Again confusion – The Left just can’t make up it’s mind whether we need to go to war with Russia OR Russia is planning war on us BUT Trump wants war with Russia OR Trump wants co-operation with Russia and that’s a bad thing?
      The mass hysteria is becoming, mass psychosis.

        gax,

        You are right on the button as usual. The Lefties are so confused, they cannot even find their own assholes. Many apologies for my bad launguage.

          Grant, Orwell wrote that when Russia signed the non-aggression pact with Nazi Germany, a similar sense of confusion reigned amongst the left. So much so that it spawned his idea of ‘doublethink’, the ability to hold two conflicting opinions at the same time.

            Cranmer,

            Yes, Orwell summed up the Leftist mind perfectly. They can never be happy until the day they die, and even then … That is fine with me, but why do they have to bore the rest of us with their crap ?

    Bercow was wrong
    – You don’t no-platform people
    You let them speak and then defeat their arguments in debate.

    His action sets a bad precedent to bullying students.

      Stew,

      Bercow is a Fascist. He would have been at home in Nazi Germany. He is a total cnut.
