Zand in your eye

A new tactic from the BBC to tug at your heart strings?

We are well used to the well modulated, middle class tones of BBC journalists sermonizing to us about immigration and the plight of ‘desperate’ migrants.  Most people recognise this for what it is, the liberal Establishment’s extremist propaganda pressing for open borders and an unending stream of people from around the world to be allowed to force their way into Europe, the BBC talking down to us and ‘educating’ us on our moral duty.  How many times have you heard a BBC journalist question a phone-in caller’s morality or sense of humanity if they voice an opinion that goes against the BBC mantra?

The BBC knows that such a message from the privileged, vastly overpaid and clearly contemptuous of the ignorant great unwashed, BBC journalists will be received with a great deal of cynicism.  So what to do?  How about the same message but  different messenger…how about a ‘working class’ regional voice…such as Benjamin Zand from Liverpool…admittedly the name perhaps evokes exactly the same thoughts about the BBC types as any middle class voice would….never mind using someone of immigrant stock to push the message…not likely to voice anti-migration thoughts is he?

Seems his reports are seen by many as somewhat one-sided…naturally he is a ‘victim’ of their prejudice….

A man from Liverpool. I make documentaries and then people send me offensive messages on the internet.

Zand is in fact of Iranian extraction and is BBC through and through…his interests are their interests….but he has a Scouser’s accent.  No doubt the BBC thought this would give some street cred to their ‘reports’ on immigration and fend off the criticism of a privileged elite imposing their extremist open borders immigration policy upon us.

Zand appeared on FOOC which was just a puff piece advertising his fuller Panorama programme…who said the BBC doesn’t have adverts?  Just for their own programmes….maybe they should run the ITV and SKY schedules past us as well?

Unfortunately the programme seemed to reinforce my ‘prejudices’ as we heard that these migrants are in fact economic migrants who come here expecting to be given jobs, housing and money.  Despite that the message is the  usual….we must do more to help migrants come here in safety.  His real target is those who want to block migration…and he does so by sensationalising the problems of those who hit the migration trail and blaming the problems on those who don’t provide a concvenient and easy route for people to come to Europe.

One example was an Iraqi who said he decided to come to Europe when his heart began to fail and he needed treatment..he couldn’t of course go back to Iraq because, he said, he had no family there.  Now that’s pretty unlikely…and he didn’t have any family in Europe…so rather than go back to a country of his birth, to the language, culture and religion of his birth, he comes to Europe.  It’s a similar paradoxical excuse we get from the BBC when they tell us illegal immigrants can’t be deported back to their home country because the family has roots here now and it would be like going to a strange and unfamilair place if they were sent home….but the migrants in the first place break their ties with their homeland and culture and come to a completely foreign, strange and unknown place when they come to the UK.  So how is it OK for the BBC to encourage them to leave all that is familiar and traditional to them in order to come to an alien Europe?  Why is going back to the homeland a fearful experience whilst uprooting themselves from that homeland and exposing themselves to the extreme dangers of the migration route and human traffickers OK?

It was a bizarre programme…clearly intended to engender sympathy and a new accepting attitude towards migrants and yet it presented evidence that showed how wrong that would be and how migrants are being lured by tales of riches and false promises…so often given credence by the BBC and its like themselves [the BBC actually published a guide for African migrants on how to make the journey here ‘safely’]….Merkel’s open invitation to the world to come to Europe is often quoted by migrants…Merkel ‘invited us’.

Shame the BBC doesn’t spend so much time, money and emotion on the extremely negative effects of such migration on the lands to where the migrants go.

 

Frightening where the propaganda starts now as the BBC narrative infiltrates schools and ‘poisons’ children’s minds….

    I’ve just returned from a holiday in Belgium where I saw all the ugliness of liberalism and its effects in the extreme. En-route the migrants who haunt Calais and Dunkirk, an ever present threat to those who come and go about their business, they linger around looking for opportunities to either steal from people or board a lorry.

    We noted without doubt a sense the country is morphing into a weird “happy” North Korea where people do everything in groups led by public servants. A school of very young children were staying at the hotel same time as us, away from their parents for at least three nights. This is the state imposing itself on the family structure, replacing the role of the parents. The way the teachers controlled the kids was eerie to say the least, making a noise that brought them to absolute silence immediately, followed by a series of strange hand/body signals the kids copied. Meanwhile the hotels children play area was adorned with perverse artwork depicting genitals…

    I could go on, but generally the point being is that this is what the BBC/Guardianista elite is pushing towards in the UK. The LGBTQ rainbow flag waved from many prominent buildings in Belgium along with the EU flag – rarely did we see the Belgian flag.

    Who cares?
    Let them die.
    If they invade our land we have a solemn covenant with our ancestors,and an ineluctable duty to our descendants,to ensure that they die, pour discourager les autres.
    Anyone not sharing this sacred historical obligation is a traitor and no trials are required to establish the correct treatment for them.

    For once I will disagree with Alan
    Zand was not a great propaganda builder he just came across as a naive young journo.
    The take was that he went all that way and didn’t really get the explanation of what drove migrants to do this horrific route.

    I was expecting an explanation that its a kind of cross between pyramid investment scam and blackmail.
    If you lived abroad and witnessed first hand news incidents, you’ll know how useless these young journos are, they see things that aren’t there, they get things upside down etc.

    It’s soft people like Jo Cox and the Church that lead to to these scams perpetuating and thousands of brainwashed migrants drowning.
