START THE WEEK OPEN THREAD…

Here you go. BBC ablaze this morning feeling outrage on behalf of Finsbury Park Mosque community whilst also doing everything possible to belittle the UK position in the Brexit talks beginning today (Mandelson and Stuart Rose given platforms). Detail the bias here.

    Twitter looks very biased against Piers Morgan ..MOst seem to criticise him for shouting and not letting Tommy speak
    \\ @Vinnyports 10 minutes ago
    @piersmorgan piers losing my respect, (2011) history video of tommy yet stating can’t use historic facts from Finsbury P Mosque. (“all that was 15 years ago”)//
    \\@piersmorgan looking for the big pat on the back from the Muslim community for defending the Koran, try not to be so obvious next time//
    Many media people still stick in the past eg saying that Tommy is leader of the EDL
    \\Tommy left (very publicly) left 4 years ago. It’s basic facts..//

      \\@paulross Paul, a fair and balanced interview with Tommy Robinson, unlike the GMB interview he had with Piers Morgan !//
      \\Piers knows nothing about it and just wanted to make it an argument. You fell in to it Tommy.

    BBC TV news tell us that the chief EU negotiator “is not in a mood to compromise”

    Well who woulda thunk it? cf Yanis Varoufakis open letter re EU so-called negotiations with the Greeks

    Now this would be fair enough, call it valid reporting of Brussel’s public statements – but stop for moment and imagine the ton of hot bricks and hard Brexits that the BBC would pour on the head of a British negotiator who made such a statement.

    Given there’s to be no compromise, let’s walk away and let them do their damnedest.

      It seems like the rules of the Marrakesh market and a poker game with the BBC allowed to peak at the cards of the U.K. Players and laugh or frown to order.

      I don’t get it. We (still) give them more money than comes back, to uniquely fund mostly deleterious claims, actions, demands and threats from power crazed, overpaid, bubble wrapped bureaucrats who have clearly stuffed up their continent already and ruined member states place at the edges.

    In a coordinated terrorist incident last Friday, three Palestinian Arab terrorists attacked Israeli policemen guarding the Damascus Gate in Jerusalem and shot and stabbed them. One policewoman was stabbed to death and two others were injured. The three assailants were shot dead at the scene. Although the Islamic State claimed credit for the attack, the Israeli police found no connection to them and Hamas in Gaza denied that IS was involved. The policewoman, 23-year-old St.-Sgt. Hadas Malka, was buried the next day.

    At first the BBC reported the incident as “Three Palestinians shot dead in Jerusalem after stabbing.” After protests that went as high as PM Netanyahu they changed the headline to ‘Policewoman stabbed to death in terrorist incident in Jerusalem.” This kind of deliberately misleading headline that emphasizes the deaths of the terrorists as if they were innocent Palestinians, compared to the actual attack by them on Israeli police, is characteristic of the BBC (and many other media). There is no doubt that there is institutional bias at the BBC that includes both Islamic infiltration as well as left-wing journalists and editors sympathetic to the Palestinian cause who are automatically anti-Israel. At least in this case they changed the headline to reflect the actual situation.

    The following day the Israeli police rounded up some 350 Palestinian Arabs present illegally in the Old City and surroundings. Often the police ignore these Palestinian workers without legal papers allowing them to be in Israel. But, after such an incident the terrorists spoil the situation for all concerned. It is mystifying why there is sympathy for the Palestinian terrorists who are shot dead here in Israel, but not for the Islamic terrorists who attack such sites as Borough Market in London and are shot dead there. There is no such thing as a “good” terrorist!

      The only humour I find these days on the tv is on Dave, i.e. Keeping up Appearances, Yes Prime Minister, Last of the Summer Wine etc etc – programmes made over 20 years ago. These were programmes that people found funny, whatever their age. I used to be a great fan of radio 4 at 6.30 when humour meant The News Programme, My Music, the Jimmy Clitheroe Show etc etc but sadly the humour has all gone and is now silly little boys whose ranting has to confirm their Left-on credentials to ensure they continue to be paid huge sums from the BBC purse (which means our money).

        The odd thing is that when ‘all this’ began (arguably with the Cambridge Footlights and Beyond The Fringe) however leftie that was it was also actually quite funny. You can still go back to it and find the occasional laugh.

        What seems to have happened now is that the polemic has overtaken the comedic but, worse, even when they try on R4 to be funny without being political, they can’t manage to be anything but banal. Think Count Arthur Strong, possibly the least funny ‘comedy’ programme R4 has ever broadcast and a poor pastiche of an ancient BBC forumula.

        I can’t say whose fault this failure is, because I don’t know. Clearly, the BBC needs new commissioning editors but for all I know there simply isn’t the talent out there waiting to be found in the first place.

        Perhaps, if all comedy really does have its root in cruelty, this is the final victory of political correctness over humour?

          GCooper, oddly enough I find Count Arthur Strong quite funny! I admit it’s not great comedy, but it’s at least something a family can watch together and have a chuckle over.

          Great comedy can only really work if it adopts a neutral position and mocks the vanity and foolishness of human nature. Orwell wrote that no great art can be created by people wedded to a religious or political doctrine; the more strict their beliefs in this regard, the less funny the comedy will be.

          This is why people wedded to political correctness can’t produce good comedy, because a whole raft of subjects will be off limits. It has ever been thus. Umberto Eco’s novel ‘The Name of the Rose’ is based on this premise; it is essentially about a conspiracy to cover up evidence that Christ had a sense of humour; if He could laugh at things, it would mean His followers might laugh at the power of the church.

            Yes, I think Orwell might have had a point were it not for the minor inconvenience of the Renaissance.

            I do agree that the sort of politics we are living through inhibits comedy but what usually happens is that a sort of Newton’s First Law comes into play. However hard the Soviet Union pressed, for example, the Russian people came back with biting humour. What should be happening, if that principle is correct, is that we should now be experiencing a strong reaction against PC. Maybe we are, but it can’t be heard because the Left holds the commanding heights by owning the broadcast media?

            Which rather leaves us back where we started here, doesn’t it?

        Deborah, comedy began to be politicised in the early 1960s with Beyond the Fringe and the boom in satire, by writers who had never really known hardship. The older comedy writers – those that remembered the Depression and had seen action in WW2 like Jimmy Perry and David Croft – continued to create good comedy, even though many of them were fully paid up Labour supporters. Service in WW2 seems to be the cut off point, I think, as those writers seemed to know what really mattered in life and that comedy should be a positive force, not a bitter social criticism, like Ken Loach with laughs. Once they had retired in the 80s/90s, the spoilt-brat generation took over with a kneejerk reactionary marxist response to everything and everyone.

          I’m not sure this is true, Cramer. The Python generation, hit and miss, I grant you, produced some hilarious comedy without having been through WWII.

          I think the problem lies in systemic changes in both education and broadcasting, the latter of which switched in a decade from banning the use of the word ‘knickers’ to prohibiting the word ‘Pakistani’.

            GCooper, you’re probably right – I think it’s been a slow decline; as the sixties wore on and the WW2 generation became less important, the comedy seemed to decline, but the real change took place around 1980 when the completely politicised ‘alternative’ comedians became popular. They seemed to see themselves as a kind of unofficial opposition to the conservative government.

            I read that Lenny Henry when he first performed used to play up the ‘darkie’ stereotypes and make jokes about his race, probably following the example of the first black stand up comic, Charlie Williams. Apparently Dawn French told him not to do it anymore!

              I’d have said that was about the turning point, too. I suspect that after that, the generation that taught future wannabe comedians was the steely-eyed Marxist true believer breed that had gone through the mill at teacher training colleges. The little dears were then polished up to a nice shine by the ‘friends of Hobsbawm’ to make sure they fully grasped the importance of dialectical materialism, by the hard of thinking brigade who had turned the humanities departments of our universities into Marxist strongholds.

              Meanwhile, the BBC was also falling victim to the same subversion – though I’m never quite sure whether it was falling or doing the pushing. A bit of both I shouldn’t wonder.

              The net result has been almost forty years without much of a laugh. Well, aside from the odd wry smile that we are all paying for it. And in so many ways.

    No in depth analysis at all in the article. It doesn’t factor in that more and more people get degrees these days so the only dividing line is age still.

    The article may as well say people who wear ripped jeans and use social media a lot vote Labour – it’s still an age thing.

      In 1960 the Percentage of 18 year olds entering universities in the UK was around 10% (higher than ever before)
      In 1980, around 20%
      In 2000, around 40%
      In 2020, predicted to be close to 60%

      It doesn’t take a genius to work out:

      1. Either young people are cleverer than earlier generations, or the majority of degrees have been dumbed down massively (which is obviously the case to anyone who looks impartially).

      2. The younger you are, the more likely you are to have a degree…. however, with the big caveat, given point 1., that your degree is also probably proportionally of far lower academic and commercial worth (something we can see through the lack of value placed on modern degrees in the workplace).

      You could say that the earlier someone graduated the more their degree is worth in current terms, to the extent that a degree awarded in 1977 (for example) is easily worth 3, or 4, degrees awarded in 2017, and taking that in to account I’m sure we’d find that there are far more ‘current degree values’ voting Centre, or Right of Centre (currently both represented by the Tories).

      As for age and voting, all I can say is when I was 16 I thought my father was ‘insane’ for voting Tory (Thatcher era), however by the time I was 30-35, I’d had enough life experience of my own to understand he was actually voting with his head, if maybe not his heart.

      If Corbyn gets his way and lowers the voting age, my son will be eligible to vote, I love my son, and he’s a smarter kid than most, but he has no where near enough life experience to contribute meaningfully to any political decisions, just like he doesn’t have enough life experience yet to run his own home, or take out a big loan, anyone with any sense can surely see that the vast majority of British 16 year olds are still children (especially these days).

      Many ancient democracies required voters to be 30 or 40, to vote, or limited voting to the ‘head of each household’ (e.g. the oldest man), and that was in eras when people grew up far, far younger. The important criteria for having the privilege to be allowed to vote being a stake in society (family, property, citizenship) and wisdom gained from experience. If you allow those with no stake in society, or life experience, to vote, you shouldn’t be surprised if they vote for honey tongued liars promising them streets paved with gold.

    The late Christopher Hitchens once said something akin to…
    “There is no such thing as Islamophobia.
    It’s a word invented by fascists
    adopted by cowards
    and believed by idiots.”

    After this latest tragic event the way our media and chattering classes have chosen to cover it you would think that there are hoards of far right racists chomping at the bit, attacking Muslims every day of the week. Quite clearly this isn’t the case. Muslims enjoy many more freedoms, more rights, particularly the women and they’re far safer, than in any native Islamic country. I’m pleased about this.
    I like to live in a truly tolerant country. You know the sort of place. Homosexuals aren’t hounded. Women can wear pretty much what they like. We can laugh at other people’s faiths without being bullied, abused or burned at the stake. We can say, believe and do pretty much what we like within very broad parameters
    That country used to be called Great Britain.

    Interesting to see that according to Guido the left are incensed about the different treatment that the Finsbury Park incident is getting from the media compared to Isalmic terrorist attacks. https://order-order.com/2017/06/19/no-the-media-is-not-treating-finsbury-park-attack-differently/. Given how quick to use the ‘T’ word the BBC were yesterday morning, I thought – “that’s odd” the left can’t be upset about that too? But of course they weren’t. They were upset about the Daily Mail NOT using the ‘T’ word.

    Jo Cox’s killer was immediately labelled a terrorist and tried and convicted for terrorist crimes. So of course there has already been a is frenzy of ‘it’s all the same” (Islamic and ‘far right’ Terrorism) from the left-wing distortion box. This got me thinking about whether ‘Terrorism’ and ‘Terrorist’ are more terms that have been abused to the point of meaninglessness. Some dictionary definitions of the ‘T’ words use the helpful adjective ‘systematic’, and it seems to me that a perpetrator of terrorism needs to be part of some known political party or movement – or indeed a religion – which has determined to spread fear through the systematic use of violence on civilians.

    In the same way that many think the BBC have blood on their hands for their shameless promotion of Black Live Matter – and thereby for the outcomes BLM have caused, I can’t help thinking that the absolute denial of the impact of indiscriminate immigration into Britain from the establishment only adds to the provocation provided by the actual acts of terrorism and provokes otherwise peaceable people to lash out. It is the establishment – not the completely faked ‘far right’ – that is largely to blame.

    However awful Thomas Mair might have been I don’t think he came anyway near meeting the conditions to be labelled a terrorist. And let’s say White Van Man proves to have been on a drunken revenge-inspired rampage. Will he really still be a ‘Terrorist’? I guess the answer is obvious. However, the left and the BBC have already called him that and suggested that he is from a ‘far right group’. So it is unsurprising that they can barely contain their delight. The balance of evil is level. On the one hand we have the most destructive ideology ever to stride the earth, on the other you have one angry and desperate Brit.

      I agree that the use of “terrorism” is now meaningless. Islamic attacks should be always called “Islamic Jahad attacks”.

      “Terrorism” implies it can be defeated with candles and love “as they are trying to scare and divide us”. Whereas Jihad is a Muslim person’s three kinds of struggle: a) an internal struggle to live out the Muslim faith as best as they can, b) Holy War to defend Islam and c) to build a Muslim society where ever they live.

      The Left have removed Jihad from daily use but that is the fundamental problem. The Quran demands it from the followers and it cannot be defeated unless Islam is defeated/banned etc.

      We could say the Liberal Left have they own Jihad without converting to Islam. Any revenge attack by white people, that results in Muslim or MPs deaths, is murder plain and simple.

    “Firefighters had put out the initial fridge fire at Grenfell Tower and were leaving the building when the blaze suddenly flared up, it has emerged. Crews believed they had put out the fire at the London high-rise and were astonished to see flames rising up the side of the building, new reports have claimed. Shortly after dealing with the fridge fire early last Wednesday, fire-fighters were telling residents that it was out, BBC Panorama reported.”

    Now surely this puts a whole new slant on everything.
    1) initial fire put out
    2) Firemen already on the scene
    3) Why didn’t they check the outside of the building, using a thermal camera after they put the fire out for hot spots.
    4) Why didn’t they inform all the residents to get out?

      Other reasons for Grenfell fire starting again (maybe?) could be, by using Occam’s razor where the simpler one is usually better :
      1. Could have been a different fire started elsewhere or one in a close location.
      2. Could have been the same people starting the fire again afterwards – no lesson learnt.
      3. Could have been the fire department didn’t put it out correctly.
      4. Could have been electrical faults – throughout the building – initial fire this was just first instance.
      5. Fire could have leeched into the cavity of the insulation – future tests would test if this was possible.

      Funny enough the vast majority of murders don’t seem to be reported by the bBC. Is it because they are…..Black/Brown (non white)

      When tommy pointed out the dodgy imans that are currently there in the here and now, they shut him down by saying they were not here to have right of reply , so therefore he couldnt say that.

      Then they started to insist the attack wasn’t on the mosque it was on the welfare house or some such bollox , so therefore it didnt matter anyway

      They had no intention of listening this was just a bit of staged virtue signalling

      Moving away from a place because they don’t like it doesn’t figure as an option because it would displease the god who is seeking global domination through his Muslim people. The world must be conformed to Islam.

      It’s our Western leadership & our institutions that are the most to blame for our current problems because it is THEY who either refuse to accept the truth or try to hide it. Globalists & Muslims. Same goal. Ultimately, humanity is at stake not Britain alone.

    Nazir Afzal said some interesting things ..when asked about the difference in reporting Islamist/Non-Islamist
    Islamist suiciders are reported cos they are dead
    When someone is captured alive then sub-judice rules kick in
    – NO calling them a terrorist
    – NO photos
    – NO speculation eg mental health

    Well most media clearly broke the first 2 rules .. while surprise surprise very conveniently obeying the third.
    I’m guessing that BBC/MSM are not supposed to
    commence #OperationBangingOn
    In the internet age the rules are dumb ..and are being exploited. Here’s LibMob media’s MO
    ——– In a Muslim lone wolf attack : DON’t call him a terrorist, do TALK UP mental health
    – In a Non-LibMob lone wolf attack : . DO call him a terrorist……… do NOT mental health
    – Do commence #OperationBangingOn but pretend it’s a general talk about Islamophobia*
    (That’s probably why Piers Morgan aired Robinson, cos actually ITV not supposed to talk about Finsbury)

    I challenge anyone to say that lone wolf attacks by mental people count as terrorism (even tho vile)
    – The label is never applied to Pakistan anti-blasphemy murders by any media including the BBC

            It seems to me at some point this ground swell of disgruntlement needs to get organised – in terms of focused campaigns – and this will need to have important and influential patrons- including journalists, MPs, Lords etc. The overall issue in my view is “progressivism” – Islamism piggybanks onto that. People need to have a blemish free copybook because the progressives will try to attack and discredit on every minor thing. At the moment me personally I am still in the learning phase – trying to work out the bigger picture – but at the moment I lack the time to do anything more. You potentially have a powerful story to tell – your autobiography, or snippets of your autobiography could help in developing a counter-narrative. Ultimately there is a need for many counter-narrative stories.

    Yesterday someone posted a quote that may have been attributed to Churchill…along the lines of “the anti-fascists are the fascists of the future”. That really resonated, for obvious reasons. We are in that ‘future’ right here and now. When people like J.K.Rowling (whose books I love) accused Nigel Farage via Twitter of RADICALISING the white bloke arrested for the Finsbury Mosque attack, I think the world has actually gone mad. Could he perhaps have been a tad upset at the 38 deaths wrought by terrorists in the last few months in London and Manchester and seeking revenge? At 48 he’s old enough to remember the horror of the 7/7 bombings in London. Isn’t it possible that he could have been distraught and lost control in a fit of rage/madness? I totally condemn his actions, he was totally wrong and it was inexcusable. its just infuriating that people feel they can apportion blame and labels long before the facts are known. And is he ‘Far-right’? Was his attack political, rather than emotional? Possibly, but we don’t know! Which brings me to the following…

    Maajid Nawas on LBC stating that the Left is no longer Liberal, and giving his reasons. I couldn’t agree with him more – this buys into the ‘Fascists’ quote at the top. We are not being told the truth, news is censored, biased, we allow people to fly ISIS and Hezbollah flags in London and we can’t say a word for fear of offending anyone? This is crunch time, the insidious ‘liberal’ agenda has gone hard left, the Tories are going about like headless chickens, James O’Brien on LBC says he has proof that the the Tories don’t want Brexit because nobody wants to lead as PM through Brexit negotiations. WTF??? I haven’t listened to the whole thing as I don’t have the stomach for it right now, but it’s there on the site. Working hard to find something to be positive about right now in terms of my country….

A burning picture of Farage appears on telly (read about it on this site, didn’t see it) and young women tweet that they enjoyed seeing him burn – in the same week as the Grenfell Tower fire. I’m so angry at Theresa May for her useless campaign but actually feel sorry for her right now. I mean, she can’t do anything without the knives coming out. Yet any criticism of that political opportunist Pied Piper Corbyn and his red brigade seems to be conspicuous by its absence. Makes you wonder. Is the real casualty Democracy itself?

    Tiger Woods: Ex-world number one getting help to manage medication
    Do the bbc really think normal people are just a bunch of schmucks? Why can’t they just call a spade a spade. Anyone that saw the dashcam video will know that TW was a pissed a a fart and shouldn’t have been anywhere a car. What is it with celebs? Do they think somehow the rules don’t apply to them? Drink driving equals a ban and/or jail. Lame excuses are just that. If it was white van man the bbc would have nailed him to the wall.

      Actually their closed in, tiny minds can’t conceive of anyone more clever, discerning or knowledgeable than themselves. For some like animals used to a cage, open the door – for reasons of habit and/or fear of the unknown, they stay in the cage. That said, to be living it up on all those £145 MAYBE WE ARE SCHMUCKS.

    I notice the ‘anti-austerity march’ (or ‘riot’) starts at Broadcasting House.

    I didn’t know they’d taken up organising anarcho-revolutionary rent-a-mobs, but I’m not surprised.

      I went through the ‘thepeoplesassembly.org.uk’ terrorist demands and helped them on a bit …

      Instead of wasting money on military intervention or developing weapons of mass destruction … let Iran and North Korea do it!
      The Panama Papers exposed the super-rich hiding their wealth in tax havens on an industrial scale … so let’s reduce the UK corporation tax and set it super low so they come here, 10% sounds good.
      We Demand to NATIONALISE SERVICES … errr, but we could just invest our own money and be part of it as a share holder.
      We Demand “the right to strike” … whenever we are upset and to cause misery for everyone else who will have to do as we say because their lives will be miserable.
      We Demand “refugees are welcome here and that the UK should give sanctuary and asylum.” … without saying when Enough is Enough or determining the impact on jobs, infrastructure or crime.

      THE PEOPLE’S ASSEMBLY IS ORGANISED AND SUPPORTED BY:
      Communist Party of Britain. Who say ….

      “However, the collapse of the Soviet Union does not indicate a failure of communism. … Communists have always sought to build mass movements that use force either to block the way to fascism or can open the way to struggle for improvement” – communist-party.org.uk

      Have I read this right, they use FORCE (what kind?) by lots of people to stop fascism – do people actually read what they write down? Is that proscribing violence – to force someone to do something?

        The Chinese Communist Party has been very successful in its struggle for improvement since it adopted the Libertarian capitalist ideas of John Cowperthwaite. But although the Chinese call themselves Communist, and the Red Army tanks are used as its force to block the way to fascism by students. I don’t think Chinese students or anyone has called themselves a fascist, since Mussolini was strung up.

    Day of Rage is shaping up to be one big Hate Crime, cheered on by the beebistan of course.

    Will the police arrest the lot of them and bang them up?

    Will they heck.

    And especially not the black, tanned, bearded or veiled ones, cos that would be racist, wouldn’t it, with beeb helpfully supplying zoom close-ups of police ‘brutality’ – or ‘doing their job’ as it used to be called.

    Pur-lese.

        No, only the Hard Left are allowed to feel rage and smash up the joint in the process, and with a bit of luck overthrow the elected government. We’re one demo away from anarchy and revolution.

              It will be the usual motley collection of tattooed women with turquoise knotted hair and biceps like a butcher, sandal wearing last chance trendies with beards and rucksacks, lots of baseball caps and piercings, not forgetting mother-earth types, and all blowing whistles. What fun !

                Brissles, if it were only those types, it would be harmless. Their desire to ‘bring down the government’ (and replace it with what??) is laughable. My concern is that the SWP blackshirts will stir up the discontented ‘yoof’ who will see it as an opportunity for some early Christmas shopping.

              You forget that more money is spend on benefits in London alone than the Defence budget. When you have over 1.2 million failed asylum seekers in the Uk looking at Corbyn as the way to be given a British passport then expect loads on the streets. Me, I want them to riot, I want them to burn london down, I want them to cause Havoc. Maybe after 100s are put in hospital due to the cult of Corbyn then the country will wake up to the fact that he is nothing more than a tool for radical extremists be they Left, Green, Animal or Islamic orientated.

              However we all know this government will lay the blame on white British people.

      I wonder if London’s mayor will condemn this march as a waste of police resources, at a difficult time, like his sock puppet counterpart in Manchester criticised the march against hate and sharia law?
      Or is it only “far right wing”, (aka not of the left), marches that receive this kind of treatment? (Rhetorical question)

    Do you agree with Paul Mason?

    It’s a question, see; just a simple question. Asked of people with no choice in response to an ex BBC staffer with near limitless access back to the old place to broadcast to the nation.

    Classy from Times : “Far-right fans flames of hate as number of white suspects soars”
    then pic of Tommy Robinson in combat fatigues with an EDL logo
    ..Radicalisation by the Times False-narrative-construction

    \\”Last year far-right referrals accounted for one third of around 400 people on the Channel programme”
    the strand of Prevent that handles the most serious//
    Em that quote is quite different from data here
    https://academic.oup.com/policing/article-lookup/doi/10.1093/police/pax036
    AND * “it must also be noted that referral does not entail automatic acceptance onto the programme. “*

    So 130 people referred means 26 get on the prog
    so talk of dramatic rise from such a small number is misleding

      Yet the Times font page contains contradicting info
      Lone Wolf not known to be connected to any org
      Rather a guy with mental issues, recently kicked out by his girlfriend and living in a tent.
      * And he’s NOT been nor likely to be charged with any terrorist offences”

      Court sub judice laws do seem rubbish
      But a good lawyer could well claim that he wouldn’t get a fair trial
      with the press labelling him Terrorist, whilst not mentioning mental, all on background of hours of press coverage shouting “Islamophobia”

      Looking for the source of the data in the Times makes me think its a story mocked up by Antifa org
      ..quotes “Centre for Fascist, Anti-Fascist and Post-Fascist at Teesside University”
      (and Bruce is in charge of the sheep dip)
      Jeez look at name ..the more you mention F-word the bigger the grant ?
      “The Centre’s latest report, based on TELL MAMA data” …duh ..well that’s credible isn’t it ? NOT
