Any sign of a pro-Brexit programme by the BBC yet?
We’ve all been waiting patiently since the Referendum.
BBC official reply
“Shut up you little children,
we know what is best for you,
we get to choose who to air,
and who to exclude.
..It’s all for your own good, so behave,
stop your stupid questions & pay your licence fee.”
The BBC doesn’t see its role as to be balanced. Most of the BBC think Brexit is a mistake and the EU is a good thing. In being pro-Brexit then they simply consider themselves to be being objective.
They may well consider themselves objective but it’s about time they considered the point of view of the 17.5 million of us who voted for Brexit and who consider THEM to be highly objectionable.
Nick Clegg accused Farage of fantasising about the emergence of a EU Army.
Junker has yesterday confirmed a new EU Army.
Apologise to Farage Cleggy along with anyone who thought Farage was fantasising.
BBC time to interview Cleggy ( his son is ill) so if not him how about Paddy Asdown, Chukka, Sturgeon , et al.
Come on BBC let’s have a bit of unbiased truth from you for once.
An EU Army would not work well with NATO given anti Amreican European (states) countries.
Put the record straight.
Finally some “good” Brexit news from the bBBC?
However, there is a “BUT” by the 2nd paragraph.
Burberry sees ‘enormous’ Brexit potential – BBC News
https://apple.news/AJLC35VrrR9i8cWpQymuUbA
The World Tonight on Radio Rohinga (aka BBC) in full flow as it covers what I can only assume is the only persecuted group on the planet, the Rohinga, who the BBC is baffled to find are unpopular in Burma. Maybe the Burmese have just been following events elsewhere?
As posted before. What do you do to p*ss off a Buddhist?
The Burmese call them Bengalis because that’s what they are. They came to work under the Raj around a hundred plus years ago and if they’d behaved we’d never have heard of them but they saw ISIS and liked what they saw.
Anyone noticed with the proliferation of new dramas appearing on TV right now that they contain a an overabundance and unrepresentative amount of ‘diverse’ characters (more often than not in a position of authority) yet when a taxi driver is cast it’s always a salt of the earth indigenous type…
It was ever thus now Geoff !
Sadly in the name of diversity its not just dramas, but in every area of programming. We are seeing ill qualified ‘presenters’ making a dog’s breakfast of what once were enjoyable (but admittedly brain dead) programmes. I’m referring to daytime offerings (yes I’m sad, but I’m retired so there), – the Beeb has already destroyed Homes Under the Hammer by offloading Lucy Fleming, and now Money for Nothing which was ably served by Sarah Moore, has now another character called Jay Blades. He appeared a couple of times in the first series in which he painted a couple of chair legs in odd colours – clearly his 15 minutes of fame went to his head, as he suddenly gets ‘management’, and with the charisma of a pencil is given a job as Sarah’s sidekick. My point is, he’s a hopeless ‘presenter’ and his creative skills in upcycling are nothing short of embarrassing, but he’s not white, so he gets the job.
Even in Doctors, (early afternoon), the character of Mrs Tenby started off as a receptionist, then after a few story lines and years in the role, she’s off to pastures new – exit Mrs Tenby, leaving party etc etc. Huh ! within a month she’s back, applies for the role of Surgery Manager, and now she’s dictating protocol and procedures to the doctors, and staff. You have to laugh.
Even on bbc speech radio various Asian and Afro presenters with their, ‘TWENNY, FIRTEE, FORDEE’ and ‘GONNA, WANNA, LIKE, KINDA, SORTA FINGS’.
As you say they know nothing about nothing and it really comes over.
There is a late night continuity announcer on BBC1 of that very ilk.
On Ch4 there is a clearly WI (not Womens Institute !!) lady who speaks in a very definite Caribbean patois – sometimes not easy to understand.
The Celebrity Money for Nothing, and judging by their homes there is a lot of money for doing nothing, also has an interesting craftsperson called EJ.
Cock or hen? I’m not really sure but it would appear that Emma Jane, if that’s what the initials may have once stood for, is no longer suitable.
Hope there’s no DIY involved in that bit of upcycling, which I believe may well be a work in progress, there’s no sandpaper fine enough for that caper.
..The Celebrity Money for Nothing, and judging by their homes there is a lot of money for doing nothing…… Excellent ! love it !
and oh how they struggle to find ‘rubbish’, which begs the question “what the hell are they doing on the programme then ?”
Brissles, now you know why I gave up telly a long time ago! 😉
Brissles, from your description, I’m sure glad I don’t watch day-time tv. I intend getting off the merry-go-round on the next licence renewal, next month.
“Diversity” is an obsession with the dear old Beeb. Minority, ethnic characters are shoe horned into dramas and soaps, usually in positions of authority; doctor, high ranking policeman, lawyer etc. Invariably they are highly intelligent, decent, honest, hard working, whilst whitey is the mugger, drug dealer, or as in a recent Radio 4 play, the far right terrorist!
These dramas are made in a sort of parallel universe inhabited by Guardianistas. It’s what they would like Britain to be like. Of course they’re completely misleading, patronising and downright dishonest.. Most of them are absolute balderdash!
I’m waiting for a BBC detective drama featuring a transgender, Muslim, mixed race private eye with a lesbian side kick.
Coming soon…
Maybe the BBC can tie it into a new Dr. Who series ….
Nadiya “the Doctor” Who can Tardis into Mecca with her disabled Transgender-Apostate-Muslim-Non-Binary-Coloured-Gay sidekick and their pet pig Percy. Then the Tardis malfunctions due to a time distortion generated from a strange black rock that’s shaped like a ladies body part.
They must now escape, knowing that it’s the Haji with 14 million visitors and non-Muslims aren’t allowed in Mecca.
What will Nadia do? Will the sidekick wear the full face veil or learn the Shahadah in time to conform or will she say who she is, and stand her ground as a disabled Transgender-Apostate-Muslim-Non-Binary-Coloured-Gay?
What about Percy the pig who was just reading the requirements for Halal?

Main headline BBC News today contained a story saying Ofcom are not satisfied there is enough “diversity” on our screens, citing the BBC, ITV, Ch4, Ch5 and Sky as the “culprits”. They reckon what we see on TV is not representative of British public….
Well no its absolutely not. Of course it’s not. When I turn the TV on now, there are as many, sometimes more, non-white people onscreen. If the last census was correct, the current make-up of TV “diversity” is TOTALLY disproportionate because whites are still supposedly a huge majority in the UK (though this is changing quick against our concerns).
But the BBC are undoubtedly going to embrace Ofcom’s demands with giddy jubilation and make a really big deal of it. It’ll be on Victoria Derbyshire in the morning, where she’ll show her usual hard-left activism with absolute pompous arrogance, loosely disguised as factual discussion. Guaranteed, white people on TV will very soon be a minority, regardless of proportionate representation.
Totally agree Stev. I’m sure we’re not alone in wondering if Ofcom and compilers of all the diversity ‘studies’ are living on another planet. Everything from the ads, sports reporting, news coverage, drama, reality, and daytime programmes, have an equal, if not more, share of ethnic faces to white. We are so hell bent on ‘doing the right thing’ in order to not offend, that we are creating the demise of our indigenous population. I’m only surprised that Orientals living here have not kicked off that they are under represented in our media – but as you say, soon it will be us.
So ditch the licence. Dead easy. Moaning is not going to change a thing and the BBC know it. They are actually laughing at you all for paying to watch their multicult fantasy world unfold before your very eyes. And because you all dutifully pay your £150 every year (while moaning) you’re just going to get more of the same. So, either keep funding it (while moaning) or do something about it.
Written and produced by Phil Space no doubt. What utter garbage!

”Poundland Nutters: Mental health row over ‘offensive’ sweets
The packaging on the chocolate-covered nuts features the name Nutters along with cross-eyed characters.
Poundland said it listens to feedback and will “assess this line”.
Poundland has responded to claims its Nutters sweets are “offensive” to those with mental health problems – saying their popularity suggests customers do not have an issue with the product.
Campaigners say the sweet’s branding is a “real step backwards” on reducing the stigma around mental health”
BBC always moaning about something…
I’m going to score some tomorrow, and then stuff the empty Bag in a politically correct woman’s hedge- who lives down the road from me.
i wonder how much they are?…
Apparently children with learning difficulties are known,officially, in Ulster Scots as ‘wee dafties’. And this cannot be offensive as this is a minority ‘language’ as decreed by the EU, minority being the top trump.
Be brilliant if that was true. Hopefully there will be a Bbc page soon to help us find out, there’s one in every other fuckin’ tongue.
And you can’t call the peanuts nuts because ‘nuts’ is a offensive term for describing loonies
Is it racist to ask for Brazil nuts?
And what about those parts of a man’s boy sometimes described as his ‘nuts’
So this must be totally beyond the pale then:
Two groups offended at once !
C Even the milk is racist.
And calling people who have political views which are not approved of by the Fascist left ‘phobic’ is highly offensive to those who suffer a life changing fear, but do you expect them to even accept there is a huge double standard here?
Calling someone fat, black, ugly and stupid is extremely offensive to Diane Abbott, so please don’t do it.
So the political climate in the U.K as promoted by the bBC is that Labour are ready to take the mantle of leadership. What with the racism that all blacks, Muslims, transgender and European citizens are facing, how weak the tories are with events in Burma, the Virgin Islands, with economy, with jobs, with Yemen, with slavery with electric cars. In the background the unions are going to give us all a winter of discontent and in order to promote their strikes as just the BBC hours after record employment figures comes out with an article about…low wages. Funny enough 24 hours after they reported on the must have gadget a £1000 iPhone.. that people is why the BBC must be disbanded,
It’s all one way traffic reports with BBC London this morning.
What do I mean? Well the number two headline in the short BBC local bulletine is a call from one MP for Sikh people in Britain to be given their own ‘ethnicity’ in the UK Census. The reasoning behind this latest bit of identity politicking is that authorities are in some sense ignoring this ‘community’
Meanwhile in BBC London’s headline number one ’11 charged in phone scam’ it is most definitely a case of no names, no pack drill.
BBC/NUJ censorship guidelines will discourage any ethnicity being attributed here – hence the bald nondescript BBC headline.
Local Hertfordshire news sources provide the names – drawn your own conclusions:
http://www.hertfordshiremercury.co.uk/eleven-people-charged-after-scam-tricked-bishop-s-stortford-ww2-veteran-cyril-banks-out-of-savings/story-30511599-detail/story.html
‘Mohamed Abdulahi, 21, Sheikh Hussain, 23, Nahid Uddin, 23, Masum Uddin, 22, Nushad Miah, 23, Mohammed Abdul Khaled, 23, all from Camden have been charged with conspiracy to defraud and conspiracy to commit robbery.
Maujasim Rasool, 22, and Abdul Khan, 25, both from Luton, Mushahid Miah, 23, and Dedar Ali, 23, both from Camden and Abdalla Abdalla, 26, from Islington, have all been charged with conspiracy to defraud’
Is this an ‘ethnic’ issue?
Well there was this recent case
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36205411
‘Gang jailed over pensioner phone scam’
Makzhumi Abukar – seven years and four months for conspiracy to commit fraud
Sakaria Aden – six-and-a-half years for conspiracy to commit fraud
Fahim Islam – six years and three months for conspiracy to commit fraud
Yasser Abukar – six years for conspiracy to commit fraud
Ahmed Ahmed – four years and two months for conspiracy to commit fraud
Mohamed Dahir – 21 months for conspiracy to commit fraud
Nathan Fagan-Gayle – 20 months for money laundering
Anrul Islam – 16 months for money laundering and fraud
By the way, I’m no expert on ‘ethnicity’ but there don’t appear to be many Sikh names there. I do begin to understand why Sikhs might be keen to have a little differentiation from the bland ‘asian’ tag.
Interesting. Do you have a link to the BBC version? Thanks.
Against my better instincts I listened to the second Michael Blastland programme, ‘The Calendar Conspiracy’ on R4 at 1.45pm on Tuesday. He is seriously weird. And so is the programme.
There are two disturbing elements to this series. The first is that he presents evidence for a ‘national scandal’ from just one source. The second is the creepy thought that hit me during Monday’s episode: we are edging, with the BBC’s help, toward encouraging the education authorities and government into an expensive experiment with eugenics. I find it a little sinister.
I have noticed the difference in the reporting on the Muslims leaving Burma to move to an adjacent Muslim country, between al Beebus and ITV news.
The former can’t shut up about it whereas the latter don’t even mention it.
Here’s a report written in 2001 about how Rohingya were leaving Burma in 1991:
Bangladesh: Information on the situation of Rohingya refugees
From December 1991 to March 1992, between 210,000 and 250,000 Burmese Rohingya fled Arakan state in western Burma for neighbouring Bangladesh. The Rohingya, later designated refugees by the UNHCR, claimed rape, torture, summary killings, confiscation and destruction of homes and property, destruction of mosques, physical abuse, religious persecution, and forced labor by Burmese armed forces. Their reports of widespread human rights abuses were verified by an Amnesty International fact-finding team sent to interview the refugees in Bangladesh …..According to the USCR:
Local and international humanitarian workers acknowledge that economics plays a large role in the current situation, but that the relative economic standing of the Rohingyas is in large part a product of the policies of the Burmese authorities These workers point out that Rohingyas who have repatriated know that they are not wanted in Bangladesh and that conditions are bad for Rohingyas in Bangladesh; that so many returnees have apparently entered Bangladesh again must indicate that conditions in Burma are particularly bad.
I wonder why nobody in the media mentions this and that since 1991, the neighbours have gone well out of their way in which to refuse these people. Not only that but this latest publicity campaign comes so soon after a foreign led terrorist campaign inside Burma.(Shades of Kosovo again???) Already in Australia there is a campaign to resettle 20,000, I wonder when the bBC starts screaming that the UK must do the right thing,(or even our fare share) which no doubt will be taken up by the rest????
Point to note if the Burmese have been ethically cleansing the Rohingya since 1991 , (when it was run by a military junta) then they haven’t done a good job then have they if the same number of Rohingya still remain in country as there were 26 years ago.
Saudi will take them surely.
We tried. It didn’t work. Time for Muslim on Muslim compassion to prevail ..
According to a 2014 report entitled “Left Out In The Cold“ by human rights organization Amnesty International, the GCC(Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and the UAE). had not officially resettled a single Syrian refugee since the crisis began in 2011. {huffingtonpost }
“How did we flee from the region of our Muslim brethren (Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Oman and the UAE), which should take more responsibility for us than a country they describe as infidels?”
LEFT OUT IN THE COLD SYRIAN REFUGEES ABANDONED BY THE INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY {amnesty.org.nz – pdf – page13}
– Saudi Arabia 0 refugees accepted.
– Iran not mentioned in the report.
– ‘Russia and China have not offered to resettle any Syrian refugees.’
Don’t recall where I got this link from, it might have been here. If accurate, and I’m not in a position to judge, it provides background which doesn’t fit well into the “victim” version of events:
Rohingya insurgency in Western Myanmar
P
Should be plenty of room for Muzzies in Bangladesh.
Wikipedia states c8 million Hindus were murdered or fled to India to escape.
Escape Muzzie genocide, the first instance of Genocide committed by Muslims since the genocide before that. Which was itself the most recent Muzzie Genocide since . . .
Sorry, I usually compose drafts before pasting them here, my keyboard wore out whilst listing Islamic mass murders and I lost the list when changing keyboards.
The BBC insist today on telling me that a minor American actor has died.
What is it with BBC R4 that they insist on digging up relatively obscure American musicians, singers and actors to announce their deaths on the TODAY Programme? Is it some kind of warped obsession?
If they love the EU so much, why do they not do it with some one-hit-wonder from France or Italy?
I don’t think there are any left…

Government responded
A licence is required in order to watch all live or nearly-live television content on any device in the UK or to stream or download any programmes in an on-demand programme service provided by the BBC
– Dave666, will this still be debated on 16 October, 2017 or is it cancelled?
Grenfell Tower public inquiry starts today. Interviewees on the BBC Today programme earlier expressed their distrust of the inquiry and its procedures.
In the UK, it is largely the case that such inquiries as this go to the excruciating extreme to find the truth. It’s the British way to ‘gold plate’ everything and take it to the nth degree. Therein lies the problem. If you import millions of aliens from the third world where it is a feature of everyday life to distrust the motives of a government or leader, what can you expect? Come to think of it, that will apply to the BBC staff will it not? All the alien reporters and foreign staff they employ must skew the news reporting. Innit.
This looks fun.

I hope you don’t mind but I am going to be biased. I just saw one of the best bits of Beeb
I have seen in a longtime ! Just about my favourite film of all time was Groundhog Day
with Bill Murray. How he didn’t win the Academy Award I don’t know. He was being
interviewed by Charlie Stayt on the breakfast programme and Bill Murray got Charlie to
say the words from ” I feel pretty” from West Side Story. It was hilarious . Charlie really
didn’t want to do it. ” I pity any girl who isn’t me tonight.”
Expect poor Charlie to be sacked by the diversity department, for taking the piss. We had just
seen the “usual diverse subjects” on the programme. All that was missing was the disabled..
weather forecaster. Yes I think Charlie will be for the chop.” See that pretty girl in the window there.
Who can that attractive girl be?” It’s our CHARLIE !!!!
Every day we seem to see scum like Antifa and Black Lives Matter marching with posters demanding the death of someone they don’t like and rioting just because they can. The police do absolutely nothing.
Kathy Griffin, so-called comedienne, held up a picture of President Trump decapitated head, dripping blood, but the police did nothing.
However, when someone posted online that he’d offer $5,000 to anyone who could get him a lock of Hillary Clinton’s hair he gets arrested and sent to prison.

Awaiting many a high profile pompous BBC editor hitting Twitter with their ‘are not’ counters.
‘What Happened?’ (Clinton) … ‘No One Left to Lie To’ {amazon} (Hitchens) .
It would be great if these two books were stocked next to each other in the book stores or online searches.
There was a twitter that was great describing Hillary’s book which said “A book where the question (What Happened?) and answer (Hillary Clinton) are on the front cover.”
“Amazon appears to delete over 900 reviews of Hillary Clinton’s book amid concern ‘reviews’ were posted by people without reading it”
http://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/amazon-appears-to-delete-over-900-reviews-of-hillary-clintons-book-amid-concern-reviews-were-posted-by-people-without-reading-it/ar-AArTy9a?li=AA59G2&ocid=spartandhp
Amazon claim that the reason they’ve deleted 900 reviews of Hillary’s book was due to people not having read it. That’s complete nonsense of course as every book/film/song/product that’s reviewed on Amazon contains entries that are not from verified purchases.
The real reason for deleting the reviews was to improve the overall ratings……before the reviews were deleted the rating for the book was 3.2 out of 5. That rose to 4.9 out of 5 once Amazon had fixed the results.

I buy frequently from Amazon, I also review products frequently, using a different pseudonym.
Amazon has a “verified purchaser” indicator, useful, because in the past I have found sellers giving 5 stars to their own products.
I suppose it is possible that products could be “reviewed” downwards, as happens on Trip Advisor, but how would you tell?
Very few of the 5 * reviewers of “What Happened” have actually bought it from Amazon.

“We are the most important and powerful people in the World (Merkel/Germany), and we have to meet in Cardiff.” “It is perverse!” {youtube Tracey Ullman as Angela Merkel}
I see the bBC are championing the release of a prisoner:
Prisoner ‘trapped’ in jail for 11 years to be released
So the family are over the moon at how their limited IQ jail bird who constantly fights, sets fire to things and throws shit around is getting released. Then I cam across this:
The Probation Service is working to find Mr Ward a hostel and mental health support in the coming weeks.
Pond to a penny this person will be arrested and nicked real soon. I mean according to the bBC, that all white working class Brits do

#BbcVirtueSignalling priorities
Reason given for hiding BBC-Studios talents salaries
“We the BBC with only 65% market share, need a level playing field with the private TV sector”
By 2020, the BBC wants its employees to comprise 50% women, 8% disabled people, 8% lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender people and 15% people from Black, Asian and ethnic minority backgrounds. {bbc.co.uk sep2017}
BBC 2020 will be “50% + 8% + 8% + 15% = 81%” Non-white heterosexual male?
“In 2015, the majority (93.7%) of the UK population identified themselves as heterosexual or straight, with 1.7% identifying as LGB, the remainder either identifying as “other”, “don’t know” or refusing to respond. Young adults (16 to 24 year olds) are more likely to identify as LGB compared with older age groups, and a higher proportion of males identify as LGB than females.” {ons.gov.uk oct2017}
– So in 2020 the male white population can declare itself a minority (19%) in the BBC and demand to be 50% represented and be equal with women? So confusing and no mention of talent!
– And the wonderful thing about the unique way the BBC is funded means that if you disagree and don’t like it and stop paying you go to prison.
Marky-I just read the feature on on ” Entertainment News+Arts.” What an absolute load
of bollocks! Women make up 51% of the population and ONLY 48% are represented
on TV. Honestly as Richard Littlejohn would say ” You couldn’t make it up.”
It really is becoming a parody of Monty Python. I could mention a dozen sick Monty Python
sketches. But the King Arthur -Black Knight battle springs to mind. With only a stump left
the Black Knight says “lets call it a draw.” Oh dear I have to control myself. Can you imagine
who we could have reading the news ? Or presenting Match of the Day, in reverence to diversity.
Clementini apologized for the BBC internal culture which leads to its output being mass deception including deception by omission

“We aspired to intelligence. We didn’t belittle it, it didn’t make us feel inferior. We were able to be all these things and do all these things because we were informed. By great men.“ {youtube – The Newsroom}
– Once the BBC realises that it can help keep us informed about the real world, all sides of the stories, then we can make informed decisions.
– If the BBC keeps priorities such as pay gaps and diversity – then where does it stand on facts, truth and offending people for liberty?
Online abuse, they deserve offline abuse.
Even if they were journalists.
Dover Sentry in the first post asks for a bBC Brexit Special promoting the pro’s of Brexit.

I note that Radio 2 has arch Marxist Paul Heaton on ‘Tracks Of My Years’ this week, a network that it seems is forever promoting his work.
Used to listen to Radio 2 all day, in the car, at work and at home, yet today I really can’t stand it, gone have all the old school entertaining presenters and we’re left with dross like Feltz, Evans, Vine, Norton and Winkleman etc, not to mention hourly fake news…

Venezuelans urged to eat rabbits (by president Nicolás Maduro) amid food shortages {bbc.co.uk sep2017}
Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro has devised a “rabbit plan” to counter the economic war he says is being waged against his government by “imperialist forces”.
– Dear BBC, why was I expecting a picture of Jeremy Corbyn eating Venezuelan rabbit stew, for solidarity, on the BBC news article?
– Remember when the BBC dropped a big photo of Jeremy Corbyn giving a football top to Mr. Barnier when talking about Brexit {bbc.co.uk jul2017}?
I ate rabbits as a lad during the golden days of post war Labour socialism. My father would catch them Everything else was rationed.
Nice drop of lapin stew. Magnifique!
Ditto for me G.W.F. I well remember the rabbit stews and my dad kept chickens and a couple of pigs. My childhood was poor bliss.
Clementini continues
“I’m pleased to report that BBC News is now the default choice when UK users ask for the news on Google Home or Amazon’s Alexa devices.

Diane Abbott uses N-word live on Good Morning Britain as she reveals vile Twitter abuse
So don’t read it, stupid, and stop whining! The internet is like that. If you read something offensive on a toilet wall, you don’t keep going back. And while you’re at it, stop dishing it out.
Last night Andrew Marr used it in a repeat on BBC 4 ..quoting historical character.
#CYA
If Diane Abbott does not like the word ‘Nigger*’, why does she use it so much? If she wants to be a shining example then stop using it or replace it when speaking, by Diane Abbott using the n-word and saying, or implying, no-one else can she is invoking special privilege.
Diane Abbott – Nigger appears 4 times in speeches {theyworkforyou.com}
Diane Abbott says N-word 3 times – when she could have replaced it rather than use the inflamed/emotive word! Just an idea to improve the situation, rather than inflame it.
{old post}
So what does she expect people to do about it? Anyway she has a history of racism against white people, but of course that doesn’t count?

I can’t say that I entirely disagree as these very unfunny BBC R4 ‘comedians’ will have to go and get a ‘gig’ elsewhere in Cuba, Venuzuela or Edinburgh fringe to ‘top-up’ their unemployment benefits and BBC stipends (also called expenses)
But of more interest to us here is that our MP’s will get the chance to debate the BBC TV license fee (again) and why we are all still paying for something that is entirely rotten and over stuffed with liberal (everything) entitlements and elite quango Labour time servers.

Stumbled on this by using place name in BBC search ‘Freiburg’ …. “German Freiburg murder: Migrant posed as 16 in asylum bid {bbc.co.uk 05sep2017}”
“An asylum seeker (Hussein K) accused of raping and murdering a student (Maria L was 19) in Germany has told a court he posed as a minor to improve his immigration chances in 2015. … There was particular anger that he had been jailed for attempted murder in Greece before making his way to Germany. … He had been let free after little more than a year in a Greek jail, under an amnesty. … Prosecutors estimate his age now to be 22. … Hussein K says he was born in Afghanistan but later joined his brother in Iran, before making his way to Europe (Greece/Germany) via Turkey. He was arrested after traces of his DNA were found at the murder scene, German media report.
– Who told him to lie about his age to get a better deal?
– How many more have been released from Greece and allowed to travel to Europe?
– BBC, fire up your £3.5bn BBC News Service with reporters around the World … go! go! go! … or keep an eye on twitter?
… will the BBC reveal what is happening at the moment in this case? …..
The defendant Hussein K. confessed to killing the student Maria L. The first witness testimony in the trial alleges to another crime: Possibly, Hussein K. raped a girl as a teenager in Iran. The second day of the trial in recap. {gatesofvienna.net – 13sep2017} [BBC still not following after 8 days]
‘Hussein K., the witness reports, thereupon went to the homosexual venue “Sonderbar”. There, he offered sexual services for money to a guest — who declined. He allegedly also harassed two women in the bar.’
TV broadcasters ‘failing to represent society’ says Ofcom report
Well, I would agree. But possibly not in the way Ofcom think.
I suspect they mean it doesn’t represent London, though even there I would beg to differ. Have they watched any commercials recently?
Again, the BBC have used too many words. “TV broadcasters ‘failing’” would have done instead of “TV broadcasters ‘failing to represent society’ says Ofcom report”.
Show we a society that looks like the following …
By 2020, the BBC wants its employees to comprise 50% women, 8% disabled people, 8% lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender people and 15% people from Black, Asian and ethnic minority backgrounds.
… this is how the BBC want society to look, not how it is.

So how many people here have heard the media especially the bBC screaming out that the British didn’t prepare for Hurricane Irma unlike the French and Dutch. That’s despite the fact they positioned the RFA Mounts Bay in the region 2 months before hand , time used in which to train the troops of where to go (and who to coordinate with) after the storm. Troops who the morning after the storm were landing and clearing up the runway (gee I wonder why they cleared the runway first???) On that note, how many have heard of this story:
For some strange reason the bBC isn’t mentioning the above story.
Also strange, Macron is getting stick for not doing enough.
The honeymoon with Macron is over. The people are sick of eating cake whilst he and his granny live it large ,he’s pissed off the military (big style) the Italians and apparently everybody under 30 , who have realised he won’t do anything for them.
Yep, he came in as the, Hope and Change bloke and an Obama or Trudeau in the making – SACRE BLEU peeps!
OK, I went to France24News to see if I could find the complaints about Macron (which I say on the TV channel last night)
Under fire for storm response, Macron surveys hurricane-hit French islands {france24.com 12sep2017}
French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday vowed to help ensure a speedy recovery on a tour of the French Caribbean islands battered by Hurricane Irma as his government comes under fire for its handling of relief efforts following the storm.
“SOME CLAIM THEY’VE BEEN ‘ABANDONED BY THE GOVERNMENT IN PARIS'”
… then I wondered if France24 (State Sponsored TV Channel) had covered the Toulouse Attack of seven people, attacker shouts ‘Allah Akhbar’ {dailymail 13sep2017}? …
The Search of France24 ‘toulouse attack’ did not find anything or using google did not find it Google Site Search ‘toulouse attack’ returned nothing either.
So did the Toulouse Attack 13Sep2017 happen or did it not happen? If the BBC and France24 did not report it then it did not happen? BBC greater (not sure how much) coverage …
Its probably a thought too far but I found the margin of Macrons victory quite surprising considering the momentum Le Pen had generated. Imagine if Le Pen had won how they would have blamed Putin for interfering but as the “result” went the safe route no one questions it. As I said, just a thought.
Sync,
I put nothing past the Western liberal elite, particularly after Brexit and President Trumps election, which has rattled them. They will fight dirty, abuse the law to suppress all opposition and use the MSM to manipulate the general population. we can see this in the way hey are pushing the fake news and hate speech agendas. Their plan is to con the general population into believing that controls are required and then to use these new powers to censor the internet.
It’s all very plain to see once you understand that we have a struggle going on between the global elite and the ordinary people, in a way it is a classic example of Marx’s class struggle, with the Bourgeoisie of the middle class liberal left at war with everyone else. The Liberals would lose this war if only most of the proletariat realised that there was a war a going on , but, thanks to the bromide pills and lies that they fed daily by the likes of the BBC, they don’t and many of them have been conned into fighting against their own interests.
All we can do Double is keep spreading the word.
I know but a pea shooter against a Tiger tank comes to mind. I don’t suppose that there will be many volunteers for self immolation in front of Broadcasting House but even if there was the BBC would spin that as being a protest against Tory cuts or against Bhuddists repression of Islam in Burma , or whatever the hell it is called these days.
I see in the spectator today that the government is all set introduce further repression of white Brits following a highly dubious report on White Privelege due to be published next week . This after David Lammy’s looney tunes report into prejudice against Colored folks in the justice system. Once again the government of my country is attacking its own people. The world is going mad. After all I never remember any democratic decision by the population of the UK to invite millions of aliens into our midst thirty or forty or fifty years ago. As far as I am concerned all this has been done against my will with no mandate to do it. Glad I’m 65 and will not have to live long in the violent hell hole that is being created by the liberal left maniacs.
We keep crossing the same lines … Facebook was where Pakistan could debate religion. Now it’s a tool to punish ‘blasphemers’ {guardian jul2017}
“Laws that criminalize insulting Islam have led to a death sentence for posts, as activists worry Facebook’s commitment to Pakistanis’ ‘voice’ is mostly lip service.
Taimoor Raza, a 30-year-old Shia Muslim from a “poor but literate” family, was sentenced to death in June by an anti-terrorist court in Pakistan. His crime? Allegedly insulting the prophet Muhammad on Facebook.
It occurred during an online debate with a man who turned out to be an undercover counter-terrorism agent. His death sentence, the first to result from a social media posting, is an extreme example of the Pakistani government’s escalating battle to enforce its blasphemy laws, which criminalize insulting Islam.
…
Facebook’s CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, has defended the company’s willingness to comply with government censorship requests (Pakistan under orders of Islam) by advancing “a single guiding principle: we want to give the most voice to the most people”.”
… don’t worry China are on hand to help Pakistan …
By next year, whether Facebook cooperates might not matter: Pakistan is in the process of rerouting its internet traffic through China, laying a 500-mile fiber optic cable from the China-Pakistan border to Rawalpindi. Some fear the project will lead to a block of Facebook in Pakistan, similar to the one in China. The project is expected to be finished next year.
When you debate in Islam make sure “A debater must train himself to seek nothing during debate but Allāh’s pleasure. “ … you see where this is going, or where it came from ….

THIS ISN’T WHEN THE INTERNET WAS STARTED(1990) OR THE FIRST BOOK PRESS(1440) THIS IS NOW IN 2017.
Mark,
I think that it will not be too long before we could find agent provocateurs on this site . Once the new hate speech laws are in force we could find vitriolic anti Muslim rants posted on this site which if you tick like on could easily be used against you. This is just one of the ways the liberal left could shut down any debate about a Islamification. How long will the managers of the site be able to keep posters e mail addresses confidential??
Not long probably for the big crunch. Don’t worry about it. Humankind will continue for as long as it can stay ahead of it’s own stupidity.
Are you warning me DT? Are you the inside man? DoubleThinker = DoubleSided?
I try to detail facts and thoughts where possible and try to follow other peoples posts with some more detail when I can, I can’t do anymore at the moment … I do have an idea (website) to bring some common ground when debating but time is against me on that project. It is odd though that this site picks all the problems with the BBC but the BBC still continues.
I remember watching BBC Newsnight where it showed the ‘Tinder Poo’ story and then showed a comment from a viewer saying “Why are you showing this rubbish on your news service. We pay for it and this is useless news.”. To which the presenter said we are showing it but we do listen to our viewers. Ha! Glorious BBC!
Mark,
No not warning any individual , just thinking out loud so to speak. Human kind will continue but in what form? I don’t want to be a Muslim, I don’t want any of my young relatives to be Muslim. I fear that that might be the case and that our increasingly deranged ruling elite is following a policy that will make this an inevitability. Tthey seem to be determined to stamp out any opposition to this lunatic policy. I think that all posters on this site are opposed to Islamification and so need to take care. Of course the repression of our views will always be presented as for the common good, but then Stalin said that too. We need to keep our wits about us.
Speak the truth as you see it. Adjust if you are wrong. It will all be fine … but a bit of paranoia is ok.
I do wonder why the thought and ideas have gone so wrong. I have an idea that we gave up thinking and questioning believing we had all the answers. I will say Christopher Hitchens has a lot to answer for … keep looking for the Just City!
Could just as easily be talking about comrade Corbyn there had he got in would be really have looked after the students? I guess not.
