Infact its more than that, i feel depressed about the UK, and its hard to say out loud, but i am scared for the UK, because i know they will arrive here, and they wont give a shit about manxness or tradition, i wont be alive to see it, but i fear it none the less….
And i despise the bbc more than i can articulate.
I live in the Lake District mate and I know how you feel, we are getting immigrants in dribs and drabs, the way we can tell is because we see the crimes reported in the papers.
Some people would say that just by saying that I am a racist, but it is true.
We got that, hungarians and polish drink offenses, eventually they are sent packing, and banned from setting foot here again.
On another site I read a take on the immigration figures and the misleading way they present them to us.
Of course, nobody believes these figures but these are the figures we have to work with.
It’s about the ‘net’ immigration numbers.
Over the last few years it’s been around 300,000 or so net immigration.
However, this is made up of something like 600,000 coming in, many of them poor uneducated men who have little chance of getting a good job and contributing to the UK as we are told they all do.
The 300,000 or so who are leaving are many self sufficient Brits or pensioners with few money worries.
The point is, it isn’t 300,000 coming in, it’s a swing of almost a million every year towards the uk population being less white Brits and more African, Asian, Arab and so on.
The population of the uk is 65 million (I know, but I’ll use that figure) so a swing of 1 million each year takes us more and more into being the minority in our own Country. 10 million swing in 10 years.
When do we lose our Country, 2030?
It’s as good as gorn, already.
EG
” the immigration figures ”
I think BBBC needs to put its own house in order first.
Stop using the word immigrant. They are unwanted free loaders, we do not want or need.
Their only function is to pollute and contaminate OUR country.
The country which millions died to preserve.
We need to use the approved methods of our ancestors, they worked well, just stop them, all actions allowed.
Ditto for the AlBeeb traitors.
Emmanuel ,
I find the fact that the CBI and al beeb are both in agreement that the arrival of more guest workers is a good thing full of irony .
Clearly neither organisation cares one bit about the conditions of individual British people ( those that go back generations ) and only care about their own God – either Profit or Multiculturalism .
I recall that ukip said that in pulling out of the EU uk could take a financial hit. That is yet to happen . UKIP said it would be worth the freedom of getting away from the French and the Reich. I agree.
Fedup,
They do not care about the conditions of the “guest workers” either.
As I posted a couple of days ago, bloody great self serving Quango.
They really amazing thing is that the Loony Left don’t see that as a problem, they actually love it!
They hate us so much.
“Bitchute”, anybody? Alternative to Youtube:
Saw this on RT. Poland continue to publicly criticise Germany & France at the latest get together. I question whether they will be prepared to give up the short term cash for the long term benefit but just maybe they have woken up to the fact it’s only a matter of time before they are going to be shafted. Would be nice to think this hairline cracknow could develop into something bigger. Watching Juncker & Lagarde sat together at this latest swarray should be enough to wake anyone from their apathetic state.
I’m optimistic about E Europe, I think they might show us the way.
No PC baggage whatsoever.
Lord,
I agree that they are on the right track but Germany will try and crush them . Best hope is probably a Russian intervention.
Grant- yeah bit like 1939 when the reich came at Poland from the west and the comrades from the east . Goes around comes around . The reich will be after liebersfrau milch or whatever their land grab thing was.
On a slightly more important issue – al beeb has grabbed the fatal accident on the M1 to smoke screen the attack in Belgium and Buck Palace last night.
Whose turn tonight ?
Fedup,
” liebesfrau milch “. LOL !
Glad you got the reference . Need a chuckle sometimes even with a name like mine !
I hope the Poles know EU Speak for f*** **f :
EU orders Polish motorway company to pay £194 MILLION in furious row as tensions mount
I think they might. Like Israelis, I get the impression that, since WW2, they have been in no mood to be bossed around, especially by anything connected with Germany. They’re also blunt, like Israelis.
Mind you, it was the Express, which also informs us:
Life after death: These people died and went to HELL following a near death experience
Must have been watching too much BBC.
If Poland were to leave the eu, logic would say that as they were a net receiver of monies they should also receive a huge ‘divorce’ payment.
If we, as a net contributor, are required to pay to get out, they, as a net receiver, should get paid when they leave.
I wonder how many billions they will be entitled to, commitments to build motorways, airports and stuff.
Can anyone fault the logic there?
Emmanuel ,
They would be at least a year behind us in triggering the Article so we wouldn’t have to give them anything .
If we do have to pay the EU for anything I thing they should just pay the 13 billion each year of taxpayers money in the foreign aid give away budget then end it.
Fed up.
I mean that the eu should pay Poland.
We pay to get out and pay to stay in.
Poland gets money from the eu so would Poland get a huge lump sum from the eu if they left.
I agree with paying until we leave although I think I’ve seen instances where we are left out of goings on in the eu and are thus not a full member now. Maybe a drop in contributions is justified.
This morning I’ve heard that labour want deals with the eu, basically a soft type of Brexit.
What is it with politicians.
We want out, fully out and completely out.
Not a mish mash of conditions and still paying in, having them interfere with everything or basically, out in name only.
Why don’t they do as we voted for and leave.
They are laughing at us.
Maybe the worm will turn and we will have our day.
Emmanuel,
We should stop all payments immediately pending the result of negotiations. That would concentrate everyone’s minds.
Emmanuel,
Yes I realise that reasoning.
What I was thinking / hoping – was that another member starts to make noises about leaving whilst we are still making our leave arrangements.
The clock is ticking so fast – exit is March 2019? So 18 months left ? Even if Labour turned into ‘A Remain Coalition ‘ to get to another referendum they are , hopefully ,running out of time . Personally I would prefer the inevitable chaos of no deal on Brexit and sort stuff out afterward. The pound would fall so low that EU citizens wouldn’t be able to live in Blighty !
I’ve got interests in the EU so time to buy euros before we hit parity or worse!
(sorry not to make reference to al Beeb in this post but starker has really put the pigeon amongst the cats )
Do any of you know if the BBC between 1939-1945 were more interested in the football scores or the
Reading and Leeds festivals than the War against the Axis nations? We are at war with Islamic Terrorism,
I could be less politically correct. But lets leave it as Islamic Terrorism . However the latest goal or
the latest test wicket seems to me more newsworthy on the BBC than a Moslem brandishing a
sword outside the gates of Buckingham Palace . Stabbing policemen and shouting out ALLAHU AKBAR !!!!
Do you really want to know? Or do you just want to have your preconceptions confirmed?
There are plenty of histories of the BBC in WW2 which will tell you everything you need to know, and you can get them through your local library. In a nutshell, though, the powers that be at the time (that would be Mr Churchill and his team, in conjunction with the BBC), discovered that sombre music and a stream of bad news was counterproductive in a country under siege, so they gave us ITMA, Much Binding in the Marsh, Hi Gang!, Workers Playtime and other light entertainment. Much of it poked fun at those running the home front and the endless forms and regulations, all with the full approval of the targets, because it gave the audience an outlet for their frustrations. Bad news was played down. It all did wonders for morale and the BBC is widely acknowledged as playing a vital role in securing victory on the Home Front.
BBC Website . ” US Storm to bring catastrophic flooding “. I blame Trump and Brexit. Meanwhile not much about typhoons in East Asia.
Ive been seeing/hearing alot of IS has nothing to do with Islam lately, like an intensification, as IS got busy.
Lefties parrot it and believe it.
If you point out that Allahu Akbar is a religious statement, they start talking about 2 korans.
And IS follows the wrong one.
So what, that still makes IS islamic…………new or old version. and it will just be shite anyway, i think we would of heard of 2 korans already,………… i know they just mean different interpretation’s of the koran anyway.
This might be old hat to some here, but this is the first time I’ve seen it. I can’t quite believe it:
https://www.bbc.com/pidgin/tori-41034578
So-called,
Yes, I commented on it earlier today or yesterday here. It must be a joke .
It is deeply racist and offensive. I live in Gambia, W. Africa and do not know any Africans who speak like that. It may be that someone is taking the piss out of the BBC and they are too stupid to realise it.
By the way, what is written in the link is not pidgin anyway.
Another PS. By the way, the President of Ghana speaks better english than most Beeboids. Mind you , that is not saying much !
PPS . He was a barrister at Middle Temple in London.
That’s not saying much either.
John,
Maybe not but I doubt if he spoke pidgin in Court ! And he is certainly more intelligent than Treezer, but that is not saying much either.
That’s a great name m8……so-called.
Ive just read their storm page, no mention of CC.
plus that needs seen to be believed,….. is dis a pizz t@ke. or is dey for re@l.
Ghana go join di league of nations wey dey occupy di heavens today as president, Nana Akufo-Addo, go launch first satellite dish into space.
With dis launch, Ghana go be di second country for Africa to launch satellite from inside di country. The first na South Africa. This go help scientists from around di world know wetin dey happen for inside Ghana.
Di satellite na part of work wey di Ghana Atomic Energy Commission (GAEC) and di Square Kilometer Array Africa (SKA Africa), wey dey for South Africa join hand do.
Professor Dickson Adomako wey dey work for GAEC say dis na only stage one for the satellite plan wey dem do and di next thing na to begin dey build satellite dish for ground wey go dey collect information from di sky.
Di professor also talk say when di project go finish for around 2019, di South African company wey help dem go release their hand, come leave am for Ghana to manage.
Professor Adomako also talk say di launch of this satellite dish go help build tourism for Ghana as scientists from all over di world go wan come see how di satellite dey work.
Dis one no be di first time wey Ghana name dey link with space.
For June dis year, three engineering graduates for di All Nations University College, Ghana join hand with Kyutech Institute of Technology to build wetin them call
That actually cheered me up.
Manx,
Nice spoof. Reminds me of the joke about Mugabe when he said that Zimbabwe was going to send a spaceship to the sun. He was asked ” But won’t it burn up ? ” and replied ” No we shall send it at night “. That joke was first told to me by a black Zimbabewean !
Robert 250,000 brand new Machete’s Mugabe eh.
oh i didnt know it was a blag site, i will go back for another look, i didnt check because i quite simply wouldnt put it past them….i just read the article without even glancing elsewhere.
Now i see its a piss-take.
Looks like some of the illerate rubbish you find on Twitter and especially Facebook. I mean no offence to the countries who use this as their language, just the idiots who think it’s”cool” to speak like this, even when born and brought up in Birmingham.
BBC Website Headlines @19:44 … 26Aug17 …

Sub Story 1) Palace suspect ‘brandished 4ft sword’ (24 hours later)
“Buckingham Palace suspect was brandishing 4ft sword, police say {bbc.co.uk 26aug17}”
A man arrested outside Buckingham Palace on Friday night was brandishing a 4ft sword as he repeatedly shouted “Allahu Akbar” (Muslim Islamic Term for ‘God is Great’, normally used in Jihad), police say.
A Palace spokesman said summer opening hours and tours will go ahead on Saturday, adding that it will be “business as usual”.
Article Text Search reveals:
Terror x 4
Allah Akbar x 1 ( ‘Allah Akbar’ is an Islamic , thus Muslim, term for ‘God is Great’)
Muslim x 0
Islamic x 0
“It was quickly declared a terrorist incident last night,” he said.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan thanked the officers for “ensuring that not a single member of the public was injured”.
Brandishing – wave or flourish (something, especially a weapon) as a threat or in anger or excitement.
– In conclusion, nothing to do with Islam. An excited man waving a sword.
– “business as usual”
And the Beeb never link the attacks to all the previous. Never any context.
Even I am loosing track … Westminster Bridge, Manchester, London Bridge, now Buck Palace all this year. Many many others thwarted.
A reasonable person if presented with a factual summary might come to believe we are under attack and that the Government’s response is not working. But the national broadcaster wouldn’t want that would it?
Not asked by the BBC
To get British citizenship you must have lived here at least five years .
But Romanians and Bulgarians were only allowed to work here from 2014 , three years .
So what were those nationals doing here before then ?
As an aside ,the BBC have been portraying the current event of people here trying to get Irish and German passports as a negative about Brexit . Now can they tell us are more people getting those passports than we giving away ours ?
On radio 5 the man outside Buckingham Palace shouted “God is Great” in Arabic…wrt the M1 crash only one lorry shown (rhd FED EX) but 2 involved…now why would that be ?????
Darn it Halifax, you made me waste some time … here are some findings

Just like to add that according to another Times article (Friday I think), they were able to establish that a Limited company based in Cardiff was funding Islamic terror operations. The apologist at the BBC would never reveal who was behind the terrorism act even though its blindingly obvious that its a co-ordinated and linked to other atrocities across Europe and that was also funded here in the UK. This was only found out by the FBI and NOT the UK Police!
https://eveshamobserver.co.uk/news/lorry-from-evesham-firm-involved-in-deadly-m1-crash/
Ismail Elmagdoub, Director of Aim Logistics Limited, said: “We are aware of one of our vehicles being involved in an incident on the M1 this morning.
“We would like to express our regret in the tragic loss of lives. Our thoughts are with the families at this extremely sad time. The incident is being investigated by the Police and it would be wrong for us to comment further at this time.”

Great reporting. Have you ever considered a job in TV journalism?
Nibor…
Romanians and Bulgarians were able to work in the UK following the accession of those countries to the EU on 1st January 2007. However, they had to register with the Workers Authorisation Scheme, which restricted their automatic employment and residential rights in accordance with Annexes VI and VII to the Assession Act. After those restrictions expired – 1st January 2014 in the case of the UK – they assumed full employment rights as per other EU citizens (Germans, French, Spanish etc). It is therefore perfectly possible and legal for there to have been Romanians and Bulgarians in the UK for a decade at this point.
I am please to report that in both todays Daily Mail and Saturday’s The Times both reported that Damian Collins (Speaking at the Edinburgh TV festival yesterday) has threatened to close the BBC ‘loophole’ – used by the BBC exclusively – to keep BBC salaries a secret. The article(s) goes on to explain how the BBC has taken it’s ‘stars’ ‘ off-the-books’ into private (and jointly held) BBC production limited companies. At least 96 BBC (although there are 3,000 freelance on similar schemes) staff – so called ‘stars’ – have BBC arrangements to conceal their personal BBC salary through ‘private’ production companies wholly or part owned by the BBC. This is likely to be far more than the £150,000 ‘rich list’ recently published at it does not includes ‘repeat earnings’ and ‘royalties’ or license fees which are sold ‘worldwide’ which are held at arms length (and FOI requests) from BBC central.
I can reveal however the number of private wholly owned TV production companies that are 100% wholly owned by the BBC to offset salary requests from parliament (or nosy parkers; such as Conservative MP’s like Damian Collins who has every right to ask). So does the TV license fee payer.
Before I reveal the full extend of the BBC cover up of high figure salaries (not all of which are anything like ‘stars’ but people who cannot get work anywhere else) like Alan Yentob (for example).
Read this:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4824858/BBC-told-reveal-star-wages.html?ITO=1490
And then only last year the BBC were under fire from the HMRC for not paying enough income tax.
See:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3827796/Taxman-probes-100-BBC-stars-alleged-tax-avoidance.html
And lets-not-forget the 40 lies the BBC told the government in 2016 regarding how necessary the BBC TV license fee was to preserve their ‘private income’ from inquiry. And then have the bare faced cheeks to continue to hide behind BBC private contract companies whilst ‘extracting’ the maximum BBC TV license to fund it all. You can read more of that debate and BBC lies effectively here:
https://www.opendemocracy.net/ourbeeb/david-elstein/40-lies-bbc-tells-about-subscription
I support Damian Collins to reform the BBC by exposing the fat cats expenditure and it’s private companies to avoid paying income tax. This is on top of its inability to pay any Corporation tax despite it’s name) and the fact that private companies (owned by the BBC or BBC ‘stars’) do not have to comply with (FOI) Freedom of Information requests and can hide PENSION perks in such private companies which are also ‘hidden’ from public gaze.
According to the TAXPAYERS ALLIANCE: ‘The BBC receives most of its income, at around £3.7 billion, from people paying the £145.50 annual TV license fee in order to watch television live’ and it costs the BBC £11 million to collect the license fee each year with ‘reminders’. Its not hard to see where the money disappears down the back of the sofa.
Thanks to an FOI request here: FOI request the BBC have revealed that they own eighteen private BBC companies registered as wholly owned by the BBC to ‘manage’ property, satellite and Freeview licensing, commercial ‘holdings’, more property (in London), BBC News (is even a separate company) which has sub companies (private contract companies held by ‘star’ presenters), iView technologies (that would be BBC iPlayer repeats), BBC investments, BBC Pension schemes and benefits (I kid you not, this is also REPORTED UNSUSTAINABLE (see TIMES quote below) , and BBC Furbs (well it would be) and many more like this. There are then another 3,000 freelance BBC staff with more private contract companies (also exclusively owned by the BBC) that work exclusively for the BBC (under contract) to one of these 18 private BBC companies. How neat is that! HMRC go get ’em all.
Lastly a quote from The Times on UNSUSTAINABLE ‘BBC PENSIONS’
‘ ‘It may even be worse. The BBC pension fund had a shortfall of £1.7 billion at the last count. Simply to repay that deficit, it is having to demand giant infusions of extra cash from the BBC, in March taking a single payment of £220 million. Or to put it another way, of the £147 license fee, £8.54 was swallowed up last year merely to make up for shortfalls in respect of promises made decades ago. That drain on license fee payers is scheduled to go on for another 11 years.
The BBC won’t divulge which or how many of its highest earners are on staff, let alone whether they are members of the pension scheme. Without this information, its list gives a very partial picture. They must have long since exceeded the lifetime allowance of £1 million allowance, the notional £1million pot mark, at which point benefits are punitively punished’.
…’This week’s revelations have already exposed a pay divide at the BBC based on gender, but there is an equally ugly one based on length of service. Younger, newer staff at the corporation are cross-subsidising older, longer-serving colleagues’.

In some ways it might be good if albeeb has to take funds out of programme making to fund its pension deficit. 24 hour antique roadshow and that ‘escape from foreigners ‘ thingy on the coast / countryside .
However what it really means is the £200 tv licence ” to continue make top quality world beating television ” as the al beeb department of truth will say .
Never pay al beeb
Further to my comments about the “leaders” on the BBC website. It’s almost coming to ” Monty Python”
proportions. Before long the leader will be ” LIVE COVERAGE OF WOMEN WITH WEAK BLADDERS 100 METERS”

Bloody Global warming will it never release it’s grip. I’m sat in the garden in a wooly cardigan .Is August the hottest evah BBC?
Surely if the planet is warming, every day should be hotter than the previous day, regardless of the sun and spin of the planet- as apparently these things don’t matter – 0.04 % of a trace gas apparently controls the Planet . Nope me neither maybe Roger Harribin , who studied English at Cambridge, could tell us all about it ?
Yes its hot today but overall this August is the coolest in the UK for thirty years. Rest of Europe excluded as they don’t get our Atlantic jet stream. I did read that its 1 degree cooler on average this August. It does not fit in with BBC narrative so i guess they will only say global warming postponed until next year. Ho hum!
Yeh cheers info – I noticed the tree’s are turning and the leaves are falling . I think we are getting shorter Summers. It is getting wetter and cooler overall – precursors for a mini ice age
POI.
Leaves start falling due to day length, if my memory serves me correctly it has something to do with phototropism and the cellular structure at the base of the leaf.
You got to get out more 😉
I do. I also have some recollection of the things I learnt 40yrs ago.

I couldn’t quite work out why a dead sitter for the BBC – a head of department at Eton College caught cheating at exams hadn’t made a higher profile, then I read the story, and I can understand why Tory Politicos are so full of political correctness.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-berkshire-41060011
A teacher at Eton College breached exam security after pupils inadvertently got confidential information before sitting a paper, the college said.
Mohanned Tanweer, who was head of economics and was due to become deputy head in September, has now left.
Can anyone recall the case about a fellow who won a court case against TV Licensing by invoicing them £40 to open their threatograms in 2014 ?
Is it that easy ?
see here
http://tv-licensing.blogspot.co.uk/2014/10/tv-licensing-where-theres-muck-theres.html
There’s an update when someone FOId them
“Firstly, I am interpreting your request as specifically relating to the case mentioned on
http://www.tv-licensing.blogspot.co.uk. For your information, please be advised that in this case a judgement was
entered in default simply because legal documents were redirected to the wrong office. No legal issues
were considered by the court and this judgement does not set a precedent. Of the small number of
previous cases which have been brought on similar grounds, none have been successful. ”

Can you add a note to your door “Strangers who do not identify themselves or their intentions prior to talking are liars and anything said afterwards is a lie … such as Chris ‘£2.2m + Labour party supporter + CarFest’ Evans salary enforcers”
Marky ,
I don’t know about telling to licencing anything .
Someone here put a link to a blog about tv licencing . Also you tube of recorded visits by TV licencing bods. I got a bit upset watching them because people open their front door and speak to them . Just dont. Same with any police who attend with them . There is no lawful requirement to say a word .
Remember TV licencing bods are not people – all they want is to prosecute people . So don’t even say “no comment” just close the door on them .
You will have to write to them recorded delivery, informing them of your fee scale, etc.
you will charge £40 a letter etc, £25 an email.
£25£ Per bill
£25 Per reminder, after 3 reminders you will take them to small court, fee £500.
They wont defend,………….then upgrade the summons to the sheriffs/ bailiffs, they will collect
It could appear on Ch5 – ‘The Sheriffs are coming’.

I just learned that Seb Gorka resigned from the Trump Administration on Friday, which is not good at all so soon after Bannon’s departure. I don’t remember hearing about that at all on al Beebus, which is surprising as they hate him almost as much as they do Trump.
It is bad news. It is part of the way the establishment is taking over the Trump Presidency, I regret to say. The last straw for Seb was the President committing to endless war in Afghanistan, contrary to his campaign pledge.
I think we all know that if voting changed anything, they’d ban it, and the way things are going in Washington makes me think this is still true.
No they did report it
but I guess they didn’t want to have to go into explaining Gorka.
Ok, there is an interview with Gorka this morning on Broadcasting House. It’s worth listening to, especially for how Gorka doesn’t allow Paddy O’Connell to box him into a BBC narrative.

Yes I know Brexit is wrong
cos I have never seen a story on any positives
..I must obey .. I must obey … I love Jeremy
Recently we on this site reflected on Indian independence, as the bBBC had for some reason decided to really big up the 70th anniversary.
We also noted that the driver to create a two country solution was Mohammed Ali Jinnah the leader of the Muslim League. He asserted that a Muslim homeland was needed because what unites people is religion above ethnicity or language.
So with that in mind, why do we refer to all the attacks in Britain and around Europe, most recently at Buckingham Palace, as terrorist attacks?
Surely a better and more accurate description would be religious attacks ?
After all, the bBBC could hardly be apoplectic when this is simply the logical approach, not dreamt up by some right-of-centre enemy of the bBBC but following famous Muslim leader Ali Jinnah’s own approach ?
According to the BBC, Treezer has told Tory MPs that she will quit on 30.8.19. Why not now and why advertise it ? Playing right into the hands of the Remainers and EU. She is a moron. As I have said before she makes John Major look like an intellectual.
Why would Treezer do something that can only benefit remainers and the eu?
That’s a real tough one.
John,
LOL ! She cannot be that cynical surely ?
It is crazy for a leader to give a time when they will stand down. It just makes them a target, as all the ambitious MPs jostle for position. Those who have no desire to be leader will be seeking the most likely winner, so they can be in their team.
She is now dead in the water and here we go with distracting in fighting.
scribbling,
It also undermines her negotiating position with the EU. But, I think that John, above, is suggesting that may be her intention. Either way, it is incredibly stupid. But then she is stupid. She should have resigned as soon as the GE results were in.
Now she has given a date her position is safe until then. Rivals will not do the sensible thing and demand she goes now; they will wait, and during that time she will screw up Brexit and impose more restrictions on free speech and endorse the spread of sharia.
Remember, this woman is brainless and she is doing what the respective elites have told her to do.
GWF,
Agreed. And, if the Tories do not get rid of her, we can assume that they agree with her.
I’ve been busy lately and haven’t been able to pay to much attention to the news. But I have heard about about Theresa May’s intended clampdown on free speech. It sounds worrying from the little I know.
But there must be some principled Tory MPs that will be forcefully opposed to it. And good on ’em. I haven’t caught their names yet. Can some one inform me?
BBC news at ten last night…….”now it’s time for the sport”
10 minutes of garbage about a bunch of English bull dykes being beaten by a bunch of New Zealand bull dykes in a game laughably called Woman’s Rugby Union, followed by the presenter saying “and for other sports news including the cricket you can go to our website”
What a pathetic joke.
third,
Amazing. I would have thought that they would have led with the cricket since the Windies had a good day !

How do we decide which narratives of history are the most important?
————
It is open for comments on Facebook. For now.
Guest,
Maybe the question should be put to the BBC ” How do the BBC decide which narratives are the most important ? “
Grant. In answer I direct you to the following two posts below from BoBotC & Charlie:
1) propaganda – anti Trump
2) censorship – divert from ROP shenanigans pronto
Guest,
And any narrative in history which supports the BBC’s political agenda. Anything which does not is just ignored.
Direct link to the Facebook post
click the time date link above and it takes you straight to the post
The BBC are publishing images of Donald Trump with swastikas and white supremacist images over him on their World News Page and their US & Canada News Section. The story itself is only a few minutes old. They also have a link to this story on their news homepage. This is not the first time the feckers at the BBC have published images of Donald Trump with Nazi symbols on him. It is the image attached to their headlined story: Ryan attacks Trump’s sheriff pardon

I remember NATO and Britain bombing the Libyan national broadcasting corporation for less:
http://www.france24.com/en/20110730-nato-bombs-libyan-state-tv-satellite-dishes/
BBC,
Have they published any photos of Antifa giving Nazi salutes ?
Caliphate – Can you imagine an air strike on W1A 1AA and MediaCity M50 2BH ?
Hey, one can dream.
The only thing left in the rubble would be Charlie Stayt’s hair
& his strap-on.
Well it’s fair comment cos they are just covering the actual effigy used in a march, just like they covered the Theresa May with a gun in her mouth from the German anti-Brexit march.
The bias would be if they didn’t cover signs and placards from Non-LibMob marches
..which of course is what they don’t mention like in the Manchester Peace March
and I wonder if there were any Charlottesville things they avoided covering.
Surprise surprise, the muslim terrorist attack near Buckingham Palace (or ‘Palace suspect’ as the evil beeb like to euphamise it) has slipped off the Home page of beebistan ‘news’ webshite.

Why demand the removal of statues when you can get people to comply, without complaint … California: Catholic school removes statues to avoid offending Muslims {jihadwatch aug2017}
“The students attending San Domenico come from a variety of religious backgrounds besides Christianity: Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism and Islam.”
“The one main statue that has everyone fired up is the baby Jesus and Mary one,” Pipki said. “It was at the center of the primary school courtyard.”
“It was less about God and more about passing on some traditions (which ones?),” Pipki said. “People were shocked that the statues were pitched in the basement.”
The BBC over the past two weeks have been heavily promoting the Boxing match between Floyd Mayweather and Connor McGregor and opened up a “live news” article on their News homepage all yesterday. The fight itself was in Las Vegas. I wonder how many people they sent over there to cover it? I expect the BBC to send a huge number of staff to New York to cover the tennis US Open which starts tomorrow.
BBC,
Are the BBC promoting womens’ boxing ?
Clampdowns on “Free Speech” on the internet are, now, well underway –
http://www.newobserveronline.com/2017/08/internet-censorship-ramps-up-as-second.html
That article has a link to the daily stormer on the dark web, after they had their dns shut-down.
click it and you see the front page of stormer, right there is a story about the BBC pidgin news site.
It really is the BBC, and not a fake site.
Wetin dey happen? The BBC’s Pidgin news site is a huge deal …
http://www.wired.co.uk/article/bbc-digital-pidgin-language-service

5 days ago – The launch of BBC Pidgin on the World Service is recognition that our English is not ‘broken’, but beautiful. … Fela Kuti once sang, “I no be gentleman at all o”, using Pidgin to underline his defiance against being “civilized”. … West African Pidgin began in the late 17th …
The link to Stormfront on tor no longer works
a story says
“The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law has claimed responsibility for the site’s removal. Executive Director Kristen Clarke said in an email that the nonprofit group has “taken action against Stormfront.”
“Their website is a vehicle used to promote racially-motivated violence and hate,” Clarke wrote. The Committee said they sent a letter citing a clause in Network Solutions Acceptable Use Policy, which prohibits using their domains “to display bigotry, discrimination or hatred.”
That seems rather catchall… but is not being applied to religious sites or the Guardian !
Seems more info is found on Gab.ai these days
Banning things, drives them underground ane drives enthusiasm
..Remember the war on drugs ?
That ‘New Observer’ site will be next.
And biased-bbc next after that.
Nah, the British police are too busy flying the rainbow flag this weekend to take note.
The pictures I saw of the police and the bloke from Ally’s snack bar with the four foot machete outside buck palace – was a bit ‘blue on blue’ . The cops looked like they had just got back from the mosque
We had a terrorist attacking our Police with a machette (some recieved cuts) outside Buckingham palace, not a single mention of it on the BBC news this morning…strange that isn’t it?
Nah,
The child rapists who make up the white staff at the bBC are taking the weekend off with their young wards, they have left the running of the bBC to their fellow Pakistani rapists, which explains the pro Islamic terrorist posts. Kind of explains why in the reporting from America about Hurricane Harvey the bBC feel you need to know this:
“”Hardscrabble” is the word Americans use to describe a place like Rockport. It is overwhelmingly white (88.7% at the last census in 2010) and voted decisively for Donald Trump in the 2016 presidential election.”
The bBC, the propaganda arm for leftwing and Islamic intolerance.
BBC on Facebook are running and rerunning two top stories this morning.
One is is the sister of a murdering scumbag who had no idea he was not a promising footballer calling for peace.
The other is the father of a victim hugging an imam.
Now, one may wonder if other views were available and there was not the space or time to feature them?
Bill, I thought it was a four foot knife.
Oh, I heard it mentioned on R4 News and very sinisterly, it was referred to as a “confrontation” !!!
No surprises here from the traitors and puppets.
Given what Labour said about tuition fees and what it is currently promising the Scots on housing, what Labour says about anything seems likely only if interest to Sarah Smith to ask about politely.
Starmer not only is stupid but he looks stupid. Why not be honest and say “We don’t want to leave the EU ” ? How can you leave the EU and stay in the single market ? He is a treasonous liar.
Grant
The trouble is he looks stupid but knows exactly what he is doing, unlike the mass of indoctrinated automatons that make up our parliament. He is ‘owned’ by the Bliar/EU lot, and this ‘new’ strategy has been deliberately timed by them to coincide with the Davis/Barnier talks tomorrow, and Bliar’s visit with Juncker on Thursday. ‘They’ haven’t been able to get rid of Corbyn yet because of the GE results, so he has been temporarily nobbled somehow.
Also, as Fedup has correctly noted several times, Starmer knows where (cross party) skeletons are buried.
the,
The stupidity is that if we stay in the EU they will trample all over us even more than so far. But I guess that is what the Remainers want. They really want Great Britain to cease to exist. Anyway, it does not really matter as the UK will be an Islamic Republic in 50 years time anyway.
The island
It’s not about al Beeb but more important – labour is calculating that is it reposition. itself to be a ‘remain’party it will get enough votes next time for a working majority . It might even get the loony remainers like soubry to cross the floor or surrender the Tory whip. It might lose people ‘up north ‘ too but will calculate on gaining more remainers.
That is supposing the current lot lose the working majority or vote of confidence. Dangerous time as the EU will look for something to upset the negotiations . The DUP really will call the shots now.
If Eire border problems lead to renewed terrorism there – that might tip the balance.
Very dangerous and very interesting times. I always saw Brexit not happening because of a ‘fix’ and it may still come. Ugh.
Come on then BBC let’s go for it take Nelson off the top of the plinth and put Mohammed up there – we all give in to your superior smugness
As Tommy Robinson said, “the pyramids will have to come down, they were built by slaves”.
Probably everything in Rome too, come to think of it.
The pyramids would have to come down because they pre-date Islam.
Al,
But surely the pyramids were built by muslims ? After all, everything great in history is Islamic.
Very soon this rape and assault will be headlines on the BBC, just a little late with news today.

Absolutely no sign of this on the BBC News website’s front page. Couldn’t even find it buried down in the ‘Europe’ subsection.
To be fair, though, you CAN read about the Canadian ambassador to Ireland thinking his official residence might have a ghost – which is clearly far more newsworthy
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/08/26/italy-african-migrants-beat-rob-polish-man-gang-rape-wife/
Today BBC found room for this
: Is Canada’s official residence in Ireland haunted?
..but not this
Polish Man Beaten Unconscious and Wife Gang Raped on Rimini Beach, African Migrants Suspected
I guess they have 2 independent sources for the first but not the second ?

JK Rowling talking bollocks as usual. Stupid woman.
Roger Scruton on R4 Point of View this morning completely takes her apart. Worth a listen. And very unusual for R4 to allow such diverse view as Scruton’s. Just hope some Beeboids were listening.
Good juxtaposition of 2 ‘sentences’ Stew.
Bacon sandwich much worse crime than just raping an 11 year old. Heck, that’s just a quaint cultural tradition and who are we to judge? -But a bit old I’d have thought, going by the example set by the prophet of paedophilia.
How come Kevin Crehan dies in prison for insulting islam yet the BBC proudly produce Stewart Lee’s Jerry “Springer The Opera”, with Jesus in nappies and they can boast about their freedom to insult a religion?
Btw did they ever reveal how Kevin Crehan died?
(Apart from losing the will to live after being persecuted by so-called British so-called justice?)
No. And as I posted here the other day, the BBC, which would be making the biggest fuss in the history of journalism had the victim been ‘of colour’ or a Muslim, has done nothing to investigate this blatant cover-up.
GC,
Given the lack of information we have to assume that he was murdered by a muslim .
Statue destruction in Australia
BTW compare the civilisation of two aborigine dominated places
The Fully colonised Australia with the violence and destructive culture of uncolonised PNG
Yeah white Islamists doing what Islamists do, destroying/de-facing history.
Throwing acid balloons at opponents, stoning them, beating them.
It is anti-race-izzst, an race-izzzt’s have to go, all 80% of the population, have got to go,
Perfectly in-line with islamic ideology, and most of the political left, their too stupid too realise the go, is a stalin ‘go”.
Is there something similar for the way the BBC choose Brexit stories ?
BBC Website refers to Palace ” terror incident “. You couldn’t make it up !
You couldn’t, Grant, and nor could I – but they will!
I just saw a four year old girl playing with a doll. Hasn’t she been watching all the Beeb’s women’s sports coverage or their creepy documentary where children are cruelly forced to forget their gender? I might even call social services to report her parents unless they replace that doll with a football and some toy cars.
BBC Website. Treezer attacks excessive executive pay as ” unacceptable face of capitalism “. What about excessive MPs’ pay and expenses ? Excessive civil servants pay ? Excessive NHS bosses ‘ pay ? Excessive university Vice Chancellors’ pay ? That is the unacceptable face of the public sector. Why does Treezer want to remind us of that useless failure Heath ? Is she a socialist ? Either way she is amazingly stupid.
Grant – Treezer is obsessed with being ‘liked’ and showing she’s not the ‘nasty party’, in her own immortal words.
And ends up being neither liked nor respected by anyone.
Charlie,
Spot on. Someone who is ice cold and has had a personality by-pass will never be liked. I suspect she has mental health problems. In any case she should join the Labour Party or the Lib Dems.
Charlie
Maggie Thatcher didn’t give a stuff whether she was liked or not – she just got on with what she believed in.
Then again, Treezer is no Maggie.
Lobbie,
And Maggie had beliefs. Treezer has no beliefs .
Always remember the morning she quite. Said to my colleagues at work, “Well that’s f***** it then”.
Qiut. Bloody spellchecker.
She has risked an outing on Facebook with this as there’s a BBC story she can share where they like her for a bit.
It does have comments enabled. Tempting, as the BBC and Treezer being as one is not as awesome as they both clearly hope.
If we had a premier with any conviction regards Brexit they would surely be courting the Polish in light of comments coming from that camp. Pincer movements are very effective if implemented correctly.
Beeb – perhaps you should point out to the parent(s) that the doll will have wear a birker under sharier law ( my misspelling ),
While we wait for the inevitable stories of violent disorder to emerge from Notting Hill’s carnival of crime (most of which the Met will probably censor) – I came across this :
http://thylacosmilus.blogspot.co.uk/2017/08/we-have-finally-gone-mad.html
imay,
Met says they have 7000 police officers assigned to it each day. Could be the longest congo dance in history !
BBC are hoping for more twerking cops at this years carnival
Surely, at the very least, a mass gay proposal session as the stabby stabby victims are hauled away out of shot?
Seems colleagues are also intrigued:
https://twitter.com/inspgadgetblogs/status/901923821212622853
Yeah, more twerking policemen, that’s what the world needs. That should keep crime down.
Lord Adonis spoke
Some people replied on Twitter
“Not until government has implemnented what they voted for
and given it a fair chance.
Reversal before that is simply denial of democracy”
The EU MO “if the people don’t vote the way the EU want the first time
…then get them to vote again”
Stew,
With threats if they vote the “wrong way ” !
I love the way that sleazebag Adonis says ” we’re moving towards a second referendum “. As if it is an act of God. Wanker.
Adonis seemed to be a bit more sensible in the past. THis EU referendum result has turned even the saner lefties stark raving mad.
It must be something in the water they drink.
A very exciting first 20 minutes to the Test Match this morning. Commentator Vic Marks hands over to Fazeer Mohammed saying ” I think I need to go for a lie down now “. Fazeer says ” Let’s hope we can get back to some black and white cricket “. Racist !
On today’s BBC homepage they have “Three Things We Love” and the first thing they love is singer Taylor Swift:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/
Now over the past two weeks the BBC have run about thirty news stories on Taylor Swift. Multiple stories have appeared on the Newsbeat Channel, the CBBC Newsround channel, the BBC homepage, the BBC news homepage, the World News section, the US & Canada News Section, the Entertainment News section, numerous radio programmes …
What the feck is it with Taylor Swift and the BBC?

BBC,
I feel like a High Court judge ( don’t know where I am going to find one on a sunday in Perthshire ) but who is Taylor Swift ? Is he a luvvie by any chance ?
Click on the links. I don’t know anything about her apart from the fact that the BBC writes about four stories a day on her. Seems to be an American female pop singer who may be some sort of feminist.
She has ‘people’; lots and lots of them.
The BBC also has ‘people’, in the thousands.
Her people know their people, and they are the luckiest people in the world.
Apparently.
Licence fee payers… not so much.
BBC,
Ok, it is a woman. Strange name for a woman . Not Transgender ?
Grant, no. Trans the multi-million $ and well on the way to a $bn. Current BBC favourite. Ed Sheeran is so yesterday.
Neither need free advertising from the BBC.
(I think the BBC may actually be trialling new revenue streams with one eye on an impecunious future.)
At my age I’ve no idea what Taylor Swift’s music sounds like (like many pop stars these days). I don’t think it was always thus – for many reasons, I think popular music used to be a lot more “popular” and crossed more boundaries, certainly in this country.
Brian “Stray Cats” Setzer said that when he came to this country he was amazed at how universal pop music was here, and that even old ladies watched Top of the Pops and knew who Adam Ant was.
Taylor Swift? I dunno, she’s just some painted doll who appears in the newspapers most days. She looks like she might have emerged from the womb clutching a contract.
In the immortal words of Milo, ‘Feminism is cancer’.
