Tory MP Victoria Atkins fled Twitter due to the abuse she received and the BBC immediately headlined its bulletins with this breaking news….the same BBC that helped do so much to encourage the abuse of and disrespect for politicians, not only with its satire but with the vicious demonisation of Thatcher and Tories in general….and now it’s Trump in the firing line…literally. Much as the body parts of long departed Saints are paraded around the country the ghost of Jo Cox is resurrected by any politician wanting to impart how serious their own situation is, a bit of Jo Cox martyrdom gives a lovely bit of credence to their claims of living on death row as the looming threat of the Twitter mob darkens their lives. No mention of Stephen Timms being stabbed by a Muslim of course as this would distract from the narrative of a nasty bunch of fascist Brexiteers murdering all who oppose them. No mention that there is absolutely nothing new about death threats and attacks on politicians…not just threats of course….the BBC’s, and Corbyn’s favourite terrorists, tried to kill the whole Tory government in the Grand Hotel as well as many other attacks.
Ah well, let’s just forget history, or rewrite it if it’s too inconvenient for today’s narratives and agendas.

(Well of course they DO emit CO2, which is theoretically absorbed by next years crop)
– So today your farm has cows who eat the grass, and emit CO2 into the atmosphere.
– Future farm, you’d give up some cows and then harvest some grass and put in in the anaerobic digester
.. OK that’s fine if you burn it for heating or electricity, but for fuel, you’d have to have a compressing stage.
..Now that beef/dairy still has to be grown say in Brazil, so effectively your farm gets moved to a cut down bit of the Amazon etc.

I am surprised to find myself reporting a balanced report on BBC Radio 4 about Burma and its Rakhine State. Well, it was almost balanced. The reporter, on the PM Programme between 5.35 and 5.57pm (was it Alastair Leithhead?) still took a pop at the Burmese Government, thereby implying the BBC remembers or knows little about Burma’s past or present governance. It was digging into why the Muslims had in many cases fled and were possibly going to meet resistance in being allowed back from Bangladesh. At long last we heard some testimony from the other side, from non-Muslims.
Balance from Burma – of a kind – at last.

A Labour MP is to undergo reprogramming/diversity training for calling a poet ‘bent’ and calling a Chinese meal ‘something derogatory’ i.e. a “chinky.” Are they serious? Of course they are. £3.7 billion for this crap?
It is about intention. It sounds like he had no malice but just failed to use the accepted words. This is extremely sinister as one can be a thought criminal without actually having bad intentions; when good people are criminalised we have entered the realm of tyranny, which is of course where most utopian ideals end up. Who decides which words are ok? The only test should be one of intention – a subjective test, with perhaps the odd exception for words which all agree are deeply offensive like the ‘n’ word.
What sort of wretched individual tells the authorities when someone uses the word ‘bent’?
Who runs these ‘diversity awareness’ seminars? On what studies are their teachings based? I grimly suspect these ‘equality training’ courses are run by whining morons who think ‘subjective’ is a record label.

“Brexit: Official forecasts suggest economies throughout UK will be hit”
– http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-42977967
The forecast does not, for balance, identify areas of Europe where equal, if not more, commercial havoc will be caused by a Brexit no-deal? I wonder why. Perhaps that might focus minds across the Channel.
I also wonder why, in its opening, the forecast gives a health warning? viz.
“Please note that Forecasts for the UK economy is a summary of published material reflecting the views of the forecasting organisations themselves and does not in any way provide new information on the Treasury’s own views. It contains only a selection of forecasters, which is subject to review. No significance should be attached to the inclusion or exclusion of any particular forecasting organisation. HM Treasury accepts no responsibility for the accuracy of material published in this comparison.”

I do not regard myself as innumerate but I find the presentation of the Brexit effect totally obscure
The forecasts, seen by MPs, model the 15-year impact of the UK staying in the single market, doing a trade deal with the EU or leaving without a deal.
In each scenario, growth would be lower, by 2%, 5% and 8% respectively, compared with current forecasts.
Are these percentages per annum? (from when)? or the difference in the level of GDP between Brexit/Eu membership after 15 years? If the latter how much will GDP in 2033 be above current level?
Should the UK leave the EU in March 2019 without any kind of deal, it suggest four parts of the UK would see a double digit fall in GDP.
GDP would be lower than present? Or lower than projected under the status quo? When 2019 or 2033?

NISA, to answer your question lower after the time period starting either in 2019 or 2021, so in 2034 or 2036 but affecting the Qs +/-GDP all the way to the end date.
GDP increases are expressed in Quarterly amounts, + point something or – point something, being the estimated (note the word) growth over the total up to the end of the last Q. Thus, for example, two successive Qs of minus numbers and the UK is said to be in a ‘technical’ recession.
Problem is – ignored by the Remoaner BBC and the Remainers they have brought on to create a fuss – they have forgotten all of that and more that dear old Steffie taught them in her time as EconEd. In addition, the fact that the figures are often adjusted later, sometimes more than once, and it can be some time before they are agreed as finalised, make the whole fuss look a bit silly. [Which is exactly how Ken Clarke described it when he was CoE in the 1990s!]
Then there is the vagueness of the calculation of GDP itself.
Divide the worse scenario envisaged by that report (leaked on Buzzfeed – what about FakeNews, eh, BBC?) into the time span and a guesstimate of about -0.5% on a year’s GDP (a good UK year is +3% to +4%, maybe up to +6% to +8% for really, very good, almost outstanding year) and you can see where one half of one per cent almost becomes not worth talking about.
You would really need -4% in Q4 of one year followed by -4% in Q1 of the succeeding year to create a real frisson among good economists. Or both disastrously bad Qs in the same year. Both scenarios, in theory, would mean more or less zero growth for two successive years but then bouncing back to normal very soon after.
Hope that helps.

Punk was essentially Thatcherite-and today it`s all Trump and Brexit in my view.
How come then that the states organs spill out their rebellious guts with endless reruns of Siouxsie Sioux and the Slits, we mean it maaan type of postures? Then expect us all to go cap in hand to the state to spout rebellion, but leave the BBC alone and vote labour. That`s not rebellion-that`s licenced state fakery that hypoctires like Lennon, Vine and Geldof preen with.
No-Trump and Brexit were REAL rebellious, punk-like acts. But`s REAL rebellion, not spitting over the prep school wall like the BBC think is safer.

On BBC2 right now is ‘Eurovision: You Decide’ where we have to endure the acts that will be voted to represent the UK.
It’s been explained there is a hidden panel of 6 secret judges, hmmm! 50% of the vote is a public vote and the other 50% is from these hidden (most likely very politically correct) judges.
For an ‘expert’ opinion after each act they have 3 people, two of them are gay.
Now for the (box ticking) acts…
#1 women – tick!
#2 gay man – tick!
#3 black woman – tick!
#4 black man – tick!

Also I noticed lots of bald heads in the dark waving EU flags. About three patriots waving the Union Jack, surrounded by thirty bald headed officials waving EU flags. But the good thing was that the politically correct vote was so divided that a blond indigenous British girl won the contest. But then I cannot imagine the hideously white people of Europe voting for someone that looks like a boat person. But despite the hysterical reception, all the songs where predictably bland, forgettable and the same as last year.
Turned over after “Britain’s Brightest Family“ on ITV: As a Mensa member you rarely meat any Black skinned ethnics, due to only white skinned Orientals and Jews being of higher average IQ than Europeans. But on “Britain’s Brightest Family” after four weeks we have already had three dark skinned families with another one due next week. That’s 40 percent of Britain’s Brightest Families are dark skinned ethnics but no Jews or Orientals. It does make it look obvious that the program has been subject to a politically correct racial profiling fix, because after four weeks none of them has beaten any of the white families, and only one white family has been eliminated, but by another white family.

When did the mysterious bug land in Europe, Cassandra, that has infested and infected everything? Symptoms of a bite are – yes indeed- an enthusiasm for social engineering on a grand scale! But it is a malign bug, for the social engineering is directed, not for the betterment of anything, but against oneself; one’s own country; one’s own people. It has been conveyed in the ether by the media who have become so obsessed with virtue-signalling, the end can’t come fast enough for them. The madness, the mindlessness, has spread relentlessly. Only when all that has been built up over hundreds of years has been extinguished, will the virtue-signalling cease. There is no better example of this disease than the BBC. Through the licence fee they have been empowered to drag us all down with them, and they are hell-bent on so doing…
There is an antidote out there, no doubt. We need to find it, and fast.

I have nothing against dwarves but I knew I’d hit BBC straight away as it wasn’t a logical character placement in said work environment. I’ve been in the workforce 30 years across several different industries and never had the pleasure of working with a dwarf so don’t see why they feel the need to virtue signal one into whatever crap program it was they were making.

Just finished watching Love Unlimited: Polyamory in Scotland on BBC2 Scotland.
I remember a few years ago some people saying that if marriage was redefined to include gay relationships, there would be no reason for the state not to similarly recognise polyamorous unions. They were pooh-poohed.
Well, the ground is being prepared for the total destruction of traditional marriage with programmes like this. The whole purpose of this propaganda exercise was to normalise polyamory. It was pretty clear to me that everybody involved in this is emotionally and psychologically messed up. From the exhibitionists and narcissists to those from broken homes with no self-esteem and a predilection for putting ironmongery through their noses.
And the way these people talked about love made me want to puke. They haven’t a clue. They all talked about monogamy being claustrophobic and restrictive. Well, yes, you morons, it is restrictive. Marriage is restrictive. It is a sacrifice on the part of the two partners in order that any children born to them will grow up in a secure environment. Some of the participants in this programme could probably have benefitted from having parents who vowed to stay together in a permanent and exclusive relationship. Of course marriage might feel boring at times but it is a noble sacrifice that the parents are making. These self-centred, superficial, drivel-spouting deviants just don’t get it and don’t have the character for mature relationships and making sacrifices.
Thank you, BBC, for further weakening the institution of marriage and taking another step towards the destruction of our civilisation.

Lead story is that ‘1 in 5’ people has experienced or witnessed harassment or bullying. Witnessed? Given how low the bar has been set this could mean once seeing someone touch a woman’s arm or ask for her phone number. Given their are several bars at Westminster this is an astonishingly low number, but of course they hype it up.
Another feminist story leading the news – what a surprise. They will wallow in the most salacious stories, replaying the stories for maximum effect. How do they know ‘respondents’ to their investigation are not exagerrating or making things up? BBC staffers must have mates who work at Westminster who understand the Beeb’s almost sexual list for a victimhood narrative. Unless a story makes it to the courts I am highly suspicious of any story.

Areas of the UK that supported Brexit would see the biggest slowdown in economic growth as a result of leaving the EU, estimates by government officials suggest.

And these suggest that, in England, the areas seeing the largest slowdown in economic growth would be the North West and West Midlands. The research also suggests London – which mainly backed Remain – would see the lowest reductions.“
So, Justin gets a ‘revelation’, with the word ‘suggests’ used… a lot… that Leavers are doomed and plucky Remain Londoners are still the only winners.

Listening to “Up all night ” on Radio 5 this morning at about 0430 UK time I found I had mounting fury as two interviewees(a NE representative of the CBI and a NE MEP) commented about some treasury forecasts that indicate the NE will have a -16% outcome in terms of its economic performance.
The entire discussion moved inevitably to the proposition that Brexit was a bad idea, that the only solution would be to have a second referendum as most people would be inclined to vote remain.
They totally ignored the arguments expounded by the Leave campaign,endorsed by 17 million people, they ignored more recent developments coming from the EU (army, political integration etc) and they ignored the fact that many people thought and voted about many other considerations than just the economy. I found myself wondering if the origins of this discussion had emanated from a previous incumbent of the Sedgefield constiuency. The ‘soft’ slimy, insidious proposals with no alternative view allowed or considered was typical of the constant drivel that emanates from the BBC

What they fail to ever say/understand is even if the NE has a -16% outcome the good people of the NE dont care because -16% of fuck all is still fuck all

A children friendly cartoon showing how evil men make women put on a bomb and blow themselves up at markets! God knows how much of the BBC budget was spunked away on this rubbish.
The only mention of the “M” word is near the bottom, “Boko Haram is considered one of the deadliest militant groups in modern history. Since 2009 they have killed more than 27,000 innocent people – including Muslims – in Nigeria alone.”
Yet again, Muslims only get a mention when they are the victims.

The bBC continues with Project fear with this headline:
Council tax hikes planned ‘across England’
Nearly all local authorities in England are set to raise council tax and charges amid concerns for their financial stability, a survey suggests…The research – carried out by the Local Government Information Unit (LGiU) think tank and The Municipal Journal – claims the biggest pressure on authorities’ budgets is children’s services (nearly 32% of councils), then adult social care (close to 28%) and housing and homelessness (19%).
The bbC even knocks out a little chart to explain the above:
Gee I wonder why so many councils have run out of cash regards children, adult services and housing? Whilst the bBC don’t say why, Here’s one the Daily Mail knocked out in 2016.
I wonder why the likes of the bBC, Lilly Allen and that wanker who sells crisps are so f-ing quiet over how Mr average, has to put dip into their pockets in which to appease their leftwing ideology.

I avoid the BBC the way others might avoid a cake laced with cyanide and covered with icing made of cat’s pee. But last night the tv came on with the One Show where, point by point, people were making unpleasant personal comments about President Trump.
John McDonnell can support and admire the mass murderer Stalin, whilst advocating lynching a female tory MP and the BBC will avoid references unless it is forced.

Gave up again – main feature is a bubble issue about onanistic politicians bullying and harassing in the parliament ( doesn’t feel like mine now)
There is an easy solution – shut all the bars and make it like a place of work not s tax funded palace / club . Dragged down by false traditions – remember that building it not that old – certainly not ancient
If fact – turn the parliamentary estate into a theme park museum and ship the government chambers to a relatively cheap bit of London like barking – which for soubry and Corbin would be most apt

Yeah I only managed ten minutes.
The bars are subsidised as well! Who not only thinks it is ok to get drunk at work but also gets their employer to pay for the booze? Everyone knows being drunk at work is a sackable offence, and rightly so.
It sums up the problem: do as I say not as I do, just like the pigs in animal farm. All their nannying and finger wagging at us whilst they say it’s fine for them to do whatever they want.

Conclusion is that
#1 Matt Hancock is a new switched on culture minister
#2 That he’s almost in bed with the BBC
..you get much more by listening to extra bit at the end of the podcast
On the on air show he said
#1 “Facebook is neither just a network (like the post office telephone system) now a traditional publisher who has read every article before publishing .. but what they can do is filter out things like child porn etc. with their tech
#2 In reply to Amol asking him if he supported the BBC Licence fee & increasing it in line with inflation, he replied “Yes”
The extra 6 minutes of info from the podcast
“I’ve only been inthe job a month”
#1 R4Today is not his main morning radio “My family love Chris Evans.. if it hits the Chris Evans headlines its a proper story.
…I listen to R4Today sometimes in the car”
#2 “An email gives me a summary of all newspapers”
#3 TV news , I’m too busy to watch
#4 Do you watch Netflicks
Yes we love ..last watched Game Of Thrones
#5 “Most intimidating newsman is Andrew Neil”
#6 “Newspapers are important for AGENDA SETTING..they break stories and thus define the agenda
.. I wouldn’t say they are less influential even tho circulation has fallen”
#7 “Do you think the BBC as essentially run by metropolitan liberals”
Ans “No, no the BBC isn’t liberal, many Tory MPs are ex-BBC staff”*
he rushes on “BBC has to do more to reflect the nation : gender, ethnic background, and SOCIAL background
..they have been trying to sort that with the apprenticeship scheme etc.”
*(Jesus just cos you are a Tory MP doesn’t mean you are not a Metro-liberal who is completely out of touch with majority of the electorate”)
#8 What do you want for your legacy
“Making the internet a force for good..not harming others
Changing the values from a liberal let it all hang out
… ” (He means censorship I guess)
“I don’t believe in for a free for all , no one thinks the govt should get out of the way (Well many do)… we have to have rules”

Malloch Brown on R4.. sorry is he slightly bonkers..he talks about democracy and in next breath we need to overturn the referendum (subtext all Brexiteers were mislead and are stupid).
“He also attracted some controversy, not least owing to his occupation of a grace-and-favour home in Whitehall” on his resignation 2009
When Malloch-Brown took up his post on Soros’s hedge fund in April, he also became vice-chairman to the billionaire’s Open Society Institute, a private grant-making foundation. 2007
Bolton (US official) commenting on him in 2006 said “Malloch Brown’s condescending, patronizing tone about the American people, was the worst part about the speech.”
So he has form – he is one of the best things for Brexit – a rich crony who knows best for all of us poor deluded people

Nearly all local authorities in England are set to raise council tax and service charges amid concerns for their financial stability, a survey suggests. {bbc.co.uk 08feb2018}
Council tax is set to rise in 95% of authorities while 93% will hike service fees, according to the 2018 State of Local Government Finance research.
The planned increases come as 80% of councils fear for their balance sheets.

The local BBC news spent time last night on the Mayor of Boston story. To be honest, it was switched on but I couldn’t be bothered to hear what they had to say. I was only there for the weather although Paul thinks it funny when he gets it totally wrong.
We have Tim Iredale as the political editor and there is no doubt where he sympathies lie both by the choice of stories and what he has to say. He is also ace at having the camera pointing up at him when he want to give a very anti Conservative story so increase the sneering look as he tells us how wicked the Conservatives are.

Unlabelled Halal meat in the food chain is a reason I don’t eat as much meat (except pork) when I`m out and about.
I only eat meat from local butchers who I can trust.
Our local Butcher, when asked about unstunned meat was quite explicit, “none of our meat is Halal, if that’s what you`re asking”.

Embolden, if you want really clean meat, then may I suggest you try to buy the hind quarter of a kosher killed animal. It will not have been pre-stunned as the animal has to be healthy at the point of killing (which is why you know you are eating a healthy animal) but its death will have been swift. It is very difficult to complete the koshering process on the hind quarter which is why is goes into the ordinary food chain (that means you get your steaks etc cheaper), leaving the poorer quality fore quarter to be eaten by those Jewish people who want to keep kosher.

If it was made compulsory to prominently mark meat slaughtered by barbaric methods, we might actually make some progress in this area. But I can’t see the BBC agitating for that, somehow. Fantasy ‘equal pay’ campaigns, however….

Amusing, or what? Switched on to R4 just before 08h00 this a.m. Caught the tail end of Justin Webb (I think) interviewing someone, possibly a Tony Maddox (American?) They were talking about fake news, Trump etc.
Both agreed that ‘centrist’ broadcasters like CNN and the BBC were the way to go.

That would make the late Comrade Trotsky a dyed in the wool Conservative!
The news started up, droning on about harassment in parliament. I don’t like harassment either, and there are not many in parliament who impress. But I know a never-ending current narrative from Toady, when I hear it, so I switched off again.
