    I recommend this article on how Canada is being rapidly ruined by exactly the same forces that are at work in the UK, wholeheartedly supported by the BBC.

    A long read, but a good one.

    Oldham Tram Attempted Murder.

    Absolutely horrific attack especially when one considers that the footage has been edited from 4 minutes down to about one and a half so as to remove the most shocking bits. I am shocked but not at all surprised. I travel regularly on the Oldham/Manchester Metrolink and antisocial/aggressive behaviour is almost a daily occurrence. A particularly unpleasant journey, especially after 8pm. The situation is getting rapidly worse and I’ve been saying for 2 years now that sooner or later someone is going to get killed.

    Questions need to be asked of the Senior Investigating Officer.

    Why did it take 12 days for the incident to be publicised?

    Why did it take 14 days for the CCTV footage to be released?

    Why is the footage that’s been released from a camera that is so far away?

    All Metrolink Trams have excellent quality CCTV inside the carraiges – why hasn’t the footage of the attackers before they got off the tram not been released?

    All Metrolink Stations have 2 or 3 CCTV cameras mounted on the underside of the roof of the shelter – why has that footage not been released?

    Is this being treated as a hate crime?

    Do you really want to catch these people?

      It’s simple really. Since the undemocratic imposition of a mayor without a genuine free and fair election which the people had made clear they didn’t want, and the imposition of politically motivated police commissioners Andy Burnham has f****d up GMP to such an extent they can no longer be regarded as a Police force.

      A recent example is that of a woman in a phone call to a housing association trying to get a home for her daughter and failing became so frustrated that she ended the call ‘I bet you’d give her one if she was a paki’ later that day the Political Correctness Enforcement Squad called at her home to advise her that her use of language was unacceptable.

      Paki is not a racist word, and needs context to become so. GMPCES know that the policy they are following is illegal because they have given their staff no training in how to identify absolutely ‘racist’ words spoken in foreign languages. In other words the only people being pulled up are white English speakers.

      This breaks every piece of discrimination legislation ever enacted and also the European equal treatment directive. Burnham knows all this, but his hatred for white people is so great that he is prepared to break the law safe in the knowledge that he personally is protected by vicarious liability and cannot be held to account.

      The fact is that Burnham is like a much less competent version of Sadique Khan who he is trying (badly) to imitate. Burnham hate white people so much he has spoken out several times about the governments anti terrorism strategy – obviously he feels not enough kids have been murdered by Jihadists so he, like Khan has directed the former Police to concentrate on imaginary ‘hate’ incidents and not crime.
      They cannot attend real crime and then claim it’s because of government cuts but the real reason is because they are out oppressing the people over their political beliefs.

      They now have no intention of catching these criminals and of course because these attacks on a lone white male have not been recorded as ‘hate’ simply because they happened to the hated white people. GMPCES can manage to catch the three murderers of a Paki coming home from the Mosque in Oldham within hours but cannot manage to even try, proving the racism against whites.

      https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/oldham-stabbing-glodwick-mohammed-hassan-14397546

      Note the number of lies GMPCES ‘he was simply in the wrong time and the wrong place’ No he was targeted for something he had done – probably drug dealing.
      The perps were all Somalis something lied about by omission a common thing with GMPCES who ALWAYS report when it is a hated white person.
      A shame they never seem able to solve a murder when the pakis are the perpetrators and the victims white isn’t it?

    Probably like many here, I get stuff from ‘Citizen Go’ to sign if I agree. Just received one concerning the Telford muslim grooming. No mention therein of muslims or islam however, it does say, “As with Rotherham and with other cases of systematic sexual abuse, one common factor that needs to be highlighted is the fact that many of the girls were under 16 and were known to be having sex with much older men, but this was considered “consensual”. “One common factor”? “Much older men”?
    My reply: “Your’re tapdancing. No more no less.
    Cant bring yourself to say ‘muslim’ can you. Just as bad as all the rest. “….one common factor….”. You along with all the rest are running scared of the cult of islam.

      Asian or Muslim…grooming or raping…gang or extended tribal family?
      The BBC really needs to choose its words with great care. When nationalities become citizens of some origin or heritage by way of descriptor by the left…you just KNOW they`re “grooming” the English language to absolve their handlers and allies of any complicity in the evils they prefer to mollify.

      The shorter the word and the older it is…the more prone to euphemisms and weasel translations it is.
      And therefore the more reason to ensure the TRUTHFUL and ACCURATE word is used.
      As Steyn said-why use Asian Grooming gang when you mean Muslim Raping family?(and affiliated extended blokes from the next village, if that is more the truth). Only one reason is there not?

        Indeed, the usual lying by omission and obfuscation. The use of “Asian” as a synonym for Pakistani Muslim (there are some Pakistani Christians, but they have mostly been hounded out of their homeland; funny that) is a BBC ploy to avoid the horrible facts and is a huge disservice to the very many Asians in this country who are neither Pakistani nor Muslim, the Chinese, the Indians, Filipinos, Thais, Nepalis and many others. Here is another neat trick:

        “Oxford Men”; and I was thinking graduates of Keble, Christ Church and Corpus Christi. Silly me.

        Truth being the first casualty of war, the unwillingness of the BBC to publish unpalatable facts is a serious breach of the BBC’s Royal Charter and the BBC are at war with the truth.

    Last night on BBC1 news was an item from Oldham about people affected by the benefit cap. There was a man who had given up work after 26 years to look after his 4 young children (the children were certainly primary aged), no mention of Mum. Obviously more of a story than we were being told. There was a young woman, a single Mum, with her son aged under 5 who understood that sometimes his Mummy did not have the pennies to buy him things. We were told that after her housing costs and paying off her debts she was left with (I think I remember correctly £130 for the week. I wonder what those debts were? But of course we were not told. There were another couple of examples but without detail how could we understand how they were in that situation. But in Oldham, what these people had in common was their colour. With the BBC’s targets for BME to appear on our targets, shouldn’t at least one of these families have come from a minority?

    The BBC reporting the incident in France involving a “gunman” not a “gunperson”. They like to apportion non gender specific titles to most jobs ending in “man” Postman, Fireman etc…so why use gunman ???

    Whilst im at it the list of Terrorism events in France, summarised below does not mention the word “terrorist” once, driver, attackers, jihadist, islamist gunmen, and gunman yes but no terrorists involved in Terrorist attacks. Suppose its like no footballers in a football team.
    Is the word “terrorist” out of fashion? After all its “non binary” so I cant understand why they dont use it.

    Major terror attacks in France
    1 Oct 2017 – Two women stabbed to death at Marseille railway station; attack claimed by IS
    26 Jul 2016 – Two attackers slit a priest’s throat at his church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, Normandy. They are shot dead by police
    14 Jul 2016 – A huge lorry mows down a crowd of people on the Nice beachfront during Bastille Day celebrations, killing 86. IS claims the attack – by a Tunisian-born driver, later shot dead by police
    13 Jun 2016 – A police officer and his partner are stabbed to death at home by a jihadist, in Magnanville, west of Paris. He declares allegiance to IS, and police later kill him
    13 Nov 2015 – IS jihadists armed with bombs and assault rifles attack Paris, targeting the national stadium, cafes and Bataclan concert hall. The co-ordinated assault leaves 130 people dead, and more than 350 wounded
    7-9 Jan 2015 – Two Islamist gunmen storm the Paris offices of satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, killing 17 people. Another Islamist militant kills a policewoman the next day and takes hostages at a Jewish supermarket in Paris. Four hostages are killed before police shoot the gunman dead. The other two gunmen are cornered and killed by police in a siege.

        Interestingly, the report on Sky I watched yesterday lunchtime had a live link from Trebes from a French reporter. She pulled no punches, calling it a terrorist attack several times before the London studio anchor (no doubt with a furious voice in the earpiece) tried to moderate her language. Credit to the Frenchwoman, she wasn’t having it. She stated that it was clearly an act of terrorism, and not calling it so from the start was what was infuriating people everywhere who could perfectly well work out for themselves this was what it was. Clearly, she is a journalist who still has much common sense. Of course, she was rapidly shut up from London and her contribution terminated.

    Why all the health stories? Eight murdered in a week in London and they are talking about muffins having too much sugar?

    What is more dangerous than muffins is multiculturalism, the insane idea that all approaches to life are equally valid. They have pushed this suicidal creed fanatically and made it impossible to question it in any way. It was all cowardice and idleness made to look cool: some groups refuse to integrate so instead of taking tough measures to bring them into line just pretend it is glorious to have a totally divided society with groups living parallel lives.
    Forget too much sugar, too much liberalism rots the soul of the nation as there are no core values to unite us.

    They are always going on about how underpaid they are. Why can’t Carrie Gracie get her hands dirty and report from Telford? Could Fiona Bruce speak to some knife wielding youths in outer London boroughs to find out what the hell is going on – 8 murders in a week and not even any outrage! No they just sit all snug and smug and talk about muffins. Lying, cowardly parasites the lot of them.

    What is Fuelling War in Yemen? {bbc.co.uk 23mar2018}: The Real Story

    The UN calls Yemen ‘the world’s worst humanitarian crisis’. It says more than three-fourths of the population – over 22 million people – are in need of humanitarian assistance. Yemenis face hunger, disease, and the terror of a war which has pitted Iran-backed Houthi rebels against a military coalition led by Saudi Arabia. This week marks the end of the third year of that Saudi campaign – with no end in sight. Yemen’s Minister of State resigned Wednesday saying Yemen’s President, Abdrabbuh Mansour Hadi was under house arrest in the Saudi capital, Riyadh. So what are the Saudi aims in Yemen and why are Yemeni civilians continuing to suffer so much? Carrie Gracie and a panel of expert guests bring clarity to one of the world’s most complex wars.

    Lost in translation?

    Couldn’t help but notice a BBC French correspondent today, harking back off-the-cuff (always far more interesting when journos have to busk off-script) over previous terror attacks in France, when she referred to the 2016 cutting of the Priest’s throat by “two boys”

    Her terminology in connection with this most cowardly terrorist outrage struck me as odd. Is it usual for a native French speaker to think in terms of muderous young men as “Garçons” ?

    I checked wiki which tells me the two attackers were over 18, which tends to be the British cut off (if you’ll excuse the expression) for legal naming of the perps on the BBC.

    “The attackers, 19-year-olds Adel Kermiche and Abdel Malik Petitjean, had pledged allegiance to Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, which claimed responsibility for the attack.”

    So what’s all this about “boys” ?

    I doubt the BBC-approved journo was being moderately racist with her use of the term “boys”. Perish the thought. In any case although one was Algerian I understand the other was a French convert (you know, to that thing that has nothing to do with terrorism, as we all well understand).

    I’m afraid one is left with the conclusion that perhaps she inadvertantly revealed a subconscious tendency of feeling rather motherly toward these young scamps.

    I see that Breitbart has been severely impacted by the Facebook censors . Readership has fallen by a quarter in the past six months. Everyone on the right of centre who uses Facebook or U tube as a platform is sooner or later going to experience similar censorship. The left of course would usually be screaming monopoly etc etc and want it split up. but as long as Facebook and Google do their bidding they will be happy. Effectively the right of centre is being shut out of political discourse . The impact will be to hand millions of votes over to the left and to prevent the people from knowing what is going on. I think that the only way forward is to break up these massive companies into several competing entities. But the left won’t support that .

    The whole political outlook seems bleak and depressing at present. President Trump is fighting hard and gallantly but the liberal left establishment is showing no sign of loosing their grip. It is a study in media power that so few Americans seem to realise the extent of the huge scandals that their ‘deep state’ has been involved in. Their media just ignores them. They have probably taken lessons from the BBC.
    Brexit is becoming a non event as the Remainers hold the reigns of power and ensure we have the softest of soft exits which is worthless. We anxiously await the composition and policy of the Italian government. By the way if the UK government had been committed to Brexit it would have waited to see the policy of the new Italian Government before making any commitments.

        So now our council are teaching the people who commit these dreadful crimes, 5,000 children in our borough alone have been sexually abused over the past year, hoiw to recognise if a child is being abused. So, now they will know how to cover the signs up.

      For many people using Google Chrome, sites such as biasedbbc and westmonster are blocked after the user downloads security updates. The Liberal elite use project fear to stoke up fear of Russian hacking and then use that excuse to get the intelligence community to produce security updates that block websites that do not censor the truth about the liberal fascist politicisation of the BBC, MI6, FBI and the CIA. And the censorship of news about immigration, terrorism, Islam, climate science and the financial, electoral and political corruption censored by the liberal MSM swamp.

      I believe the current problems for biasedbbc.tv are caused by these security updates. These security updates mean that the right-wing, left-wing or anyone else who tells the truth at Speakers Corner, can be blocked by the caring message “This site can’t provide a secure connection”

      I find that if you give your email to people, then they are able to email you information. If the Liberals then start blocking emails we would then have to start giving these people our home addresses, so that they could revert to posting pamphlets like they did in the English Civil War.

      Actually some scientists or mensa members said in an email that they are trying to find funds to send pamphlets about Climate Science censored by the BBC, to every address in the nation.

    Paul Matthews update
    18Jan R4 News had complete FakeNews headline
    They are still continuing to bluff it out, by admitting yet brushing off his complaint

    As readers may recall from previous posts, the 6 O’clock news on BBC Radio 4 on 18 January started with the false claim that

    “The world’s leading climate agencies have said for the first time that global warming caused by humans now dwarfs natural temperature changes.”

    This was, to put it bluntly a lie

    Roger Harrabin had obtained a soundbite from Peter Stott. Someone at the BBC then twisted this soundbite into the headline about leading climate agencies.

    He attached a screenshot of a BBC complaints team staffer

      “The world’s leading climate agencies have (My guess, Peter Cox) said for the first time that global warming caused by humans now dwarfs natural temperature changes.”

      I think the above “BBC Fake News” was constructed using the fantasy world of Computer Models, not the real world of correlations with weather records going back to the 18th Century. I also guess that “Peter Cox” is hiding behind the words ”The world’s leading climate agencies have”

      I believe that the scientist who has just proven that Climate Change is caused by Cosmic Rays regulating the Earth’s Cloud Albedo, Henrik Svensmark, has just held a lecture in the House of Parliament, censored by the BBC. Also censored by the BBC, as I have said a few years back, that Global Cooling would start in the winter of 2018. Well at the moment Astronomers are saying that the Galactic Cosmic Ray intensity in the Geostationary Orbit area of the Earth, is at its highest ever recorded.

      Also the scientists who have proven that carbon dioxide warming is a hoax, (1) Directly: Gerhard Gerlich or (2) Through thermodynamics and using Venus and Mars as proxies, Ned Nikolov and Karl Zeller who spoke at the 2016 London Climate Change Conference, are also censored by the BBC.

        Indeed Richard.

        Other climate scientists censored by the BBC include Prof Richard Lindzen, Prof Curry and Prof Singer.

        But why should the BBC bother to uncover the science view of climate when they can broadcast the views of such intellectual luminaries as Emma Thompson, (the world will warm by 4C before 2030), or 1970s Dress designer Vivian Westward, (it’s all down to the oil companies). Failing that the BBC can listen to the daughter of a 1960s pop singer, Bianca Jagger and a whole host of folk from Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth.

        Perhaps the BBC could get a word from their science correspondent David Shukman, a passionate environmentalist and arts graduate.

        Pallab Ghosh is kept locked away in a box in an attic because twice I have heard him actually answering questions about climate and fracking with scientific fact. Can’t be having that.

        Glasgow Police. Oh dear…
        Could be a lot worse: In South Africa, former Police Head of Crime Intelligence, Richard Mdluli, has departed, leaving a R8million hole in the fiscus, after ‘lingering’ at home, on suspension for seven years! ‘Some’- as the BBC likes to say, noted that three of the applicants on the shortlist to succeed him had been involved in crime.
        It appears that under Mdluli’s watch, the entire Crime Intelligence section in the SAPS was turned into a personal fiefdom, with hundreds of millions looted from a secret slush fund, largely in service of the ANC. So, for instance, CI Captain Tshabalala, a former criminal – who got the job unvetted- ‘lost’ R50 million running a secret project at the ANC’s Manguang conference. Want to see what all the other criminal police officers in that section were up to?
        Marianne Thamm’s article in the Daily Maverick will enlighten you. Naturally, she will have got it all wrong: the ANC are long-standing favourites of the ‘liberal’ European elites, and obviously can do no wrong. And if she’s right, well -don’t expect it to be reported on by media such as the BBC. It wouldn’t fit their narrative at all.
        Also, don’t expect the SA government to take action against politicians in SA who publicly threaten whites with throat-slitting (obviously NOT hate speech, wrong way round!) or for such threats to be reported in Britain by Media such as the BBC. Very much doesn’t go with the narrative…
        So, good news about Glasgow police. If you see what I mean. They may be misguided (and who am I to pass judgement on that as I know nothing about it) but at least they’re honest citizens.

    It is becoming more difficult by the day to understand how any journalist who values professional integrity and independence can justify working for the BBC. Just listen to the BBC 5pm news with Eddie Maie dance around the obvious fact that the attacks near Carcassone were the work of another crazed muslim intent on killing non-believers. Even Inspector Clouseau might have worked that one out having pieced together some of the tragic events in SW France today.

    In the 5pm news however we learn that the assailant Radouane Lakdim was a local man known to the police as a “petty criminal” and he might have been influenced by ISIS. Not a word from Maie and his various contributors that Le Figaro is reporting that Lakdim shouted “Allah Akbar” as he stormed into a supermarket. Not a broadcast word of the Le Parisien newspaper report that Lakdim was know to the French intelligence services and was active on “ultra-conservative” Islamic social media sites. And not a peep about the suggestion around the web that the attacker had demanded the release of Salah Abdeslam, the sole remaining killer still alive after the horrific jihadists killings in Paris in 2015.

    Then the programme went on to report the sentencing of Iraqi so-called refugee Ahmed Hassan, who arrived in the UK in the back of a lorry, and instead of being booted straight out was provided with all the creature comforts of a home with Sunbury foster parents. He then proceeded to repay such kindness by attempting to blow up a London tube train with a home made bomb packed with nails. So we have yet another imported muslim killer in the dock, a fact glossed over by the BBC referring only to his “refugee” status. It was left to the judge in the case sentencing Hassan to at least 34 years in prison to remark that his actions were against Islam and the Koran.

    Has the BBC taken an editorial decision not to mention the word “muslim” in reporting these continuing outrages, both killings and the gang rapes in a number of Northern cities? It certainly has form with this type of thing. In 2006 it decided that the direct link between CO2 and rising global temperatures was “settled”, thus siding with the political green activists and relieving itself of reporting any part of an important debate that has gripped the scientific community ever since.

    Maybe the BBC has decided that muslims are victims in all of this. Most British muslims no doubt abhor the jihadist violence, raping of young vulnerable non-muslim British girls and the practice of female genital mutilation ordered by sick patriarchal males, not one of whom has been successfully prosecuted in the British courts. No doubt, but it would be nice to see some significant “not in our name” rallies and large reductions in the 20% of all British muslims that polls find are “sympathetic” to the aims of jihad.

    Yet again the supine and biased BBC takes the easy way out and fails to report the real, difficult and pressing issues that face our society.

      Anyway, I heard that driving home and it made me hopping mad. How can anyone really believe this ‘peaceful’ b*llsh*t? It can only be because they want to believe it which is frightening in itself.

      Throughout the day, the phrase ‘the islamic state group’ was used in relation to the allegiance of the murderer in Trebes. On the beeb, it’s always ‘the islamic state group’ or ‘so-called islamic state’. Ridiculously, the former sounds like a Corporation but it seems to remove the need for the ‘so called’.

    Also BBC used to welcome comments but these seem to have been shut down, we pay for this service and our feedback and comments have now been censored, interesting, also in Luton the local news have shut down their comments page hmm why is that ? well just have a look at many of the crime stories in Luton over the last few years and the demands for “special schools” of a certain religion, there used to be considerable debate about this without desceding into abuse until a certain individual from a certain religion started to call anyone objecting to his views a “paedophile” and another individual called into question the morality of this country and demanded his fellow muslms should have their own schools paid for by the state because he hated the morality of this country and accused OFSTED of racism, hmm amazing how this individual got past immigration into this country to spew his hateful and racist agenda yet he did and so many others also do

      I reckon the Mexicans would win-Channel 9 would give it all that touch of class that the BBc always fail to do.

    Naturally, the egregious and biased Sopel had no positive words to say on the appointment of John Bolton (Today programme), and obviously did not mention that his predecessor McMaster has long been one of the chief suspects to have been leaking confidential information about Trump and the WH. Nothing from Sopel yet on the unfolding stories of criminality by the highest officials in the FBI, DOJ and elsewhere. This is developing into one of the greatest scandals in US history, yet Sopel and the BBC censor it out of (their) history. Joe DiGeneova nails it on Bill Still’s latest video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5NPIYBRipA [and, by the way, three cheers to Bill for his excoriation of Hannity for constantly interrupting his guests – see second part of video].

          Trump needs to keep him on a very tight leash, or he’ll be a half-term POTUS not even a one term; if the GOP base stay at home for the mid-term elections in November and the Dems get control of the House: they’ll impeach him.

        Hello Fedup. You asked me about how I managed to stop watching BBC output completely. Sorry I did not reply immediately. To be really honest I’m not entirely sure how it seemed to suddenly happen. Radio was always my go to news source and I would enjoy radio 4 extra drama.
        I arrived back from Australia in 2012 and immediately began listening to BBC world service and both radio 4 channels. I was oblivious to how bad their bias was because to me the BBC was brilliant. I was so stupid.
        I now know things were quite awful long before I got back however it’s got much worse in the last 6 years. I couldn’t take any more as a quick push of my on button resulted in either Presidents Trump’s name or Brexit, or the poor refugees,
        over and over again.

        Any complaints were ignored. Once I became angry and they responded in horror that my language would be too much for the staff concerned with my complaint. I cancelled my license but of course was still able to listen to the radio. I did reinstate the licence because after a few weeks I began watching live TV again, I still do (rarely BBC, mostly commercial rubbish) then I realised that I wasn’t (couldn’t tolerate) any radio, trust any news or believe any drama. Suddenly I refused to turn the radio on. When I once enjoyed it so much it makes me bloody furious that despite all the offerings there is nothing of worth to listen to or to trust. I now get my fix from this site and various you tube offerings, although I’m becoming dissatisfied with many of these as the headlines don’t always match the content. You Tube are now constantly interrupting the clips with advertising. Also what is concerning, is that even alternate media sources are now under threat. Also many of the clips are old which can be informative because it gives perspective from before which you can compare with now. Here are some of the people I enjoy on you tube. Mark Steyn, Douglas Murray, Tucker Carlson, Ben Shapiro, Milo Yiannopoulos, Jordan Peterson, Katie Hopkins, Ann Coulter, Lauren Southern, Tommy Robinson, Nigel Farage, Stefan Molyneux, Paul Joseph Watson, The Iconoclast. I don’t always agree with them, but they are brilliant. I hope this helps a little. The aggorance and unprofessionalism of the BBC continues to wind me up. Imagine what they could be doing with the money they get. It’s a disgrace but then everything that is happening leaves me feeling hopeless. Cheers.

          I share your pain, Moodswing. I was brought up with Radio 4 on in the background, even when we lived abroad. It was informative and entertaining, and introduced me to writers, thinkers, comedians and quick-witted word games. Now, I can’t bear to listen. You are absolutely right when you say that every press of the button brings up the same three dread subjects, always from a very narrow perspective.

          All I can say is that we are not alone, and many, many people I know – educated, liberal (in the old-fashioned sense), middle class – have also had their fill of the incessant propagandising. Actually, I would go so far as to say that, with it, the BBC is stirring up annoyances that have never, ever, been there before. You can’t keep telling people – subliminally and not-so-subtly – that they are wrong in their political views or guilty of something they are plainly not, without some effect.

            I’m another who has more or less tuned out of the BBC. I occasionally snatch at the news on R4 or watch something on BBC Four or BBC Two but that’s about it. And yet, like you, I was brought up with Radio Four (or the Home Service) as my source of news and entertainment – education, too, because one of the virtues of the BBC as it was, not so many years ago, is that you picked up an awful lot of essential information about the world, without having to formally study to achieve it.

            As I say, that has now gone. I can no longer stand being preached at by people far more stupid and far less knowledgeable than I am – particularly when they are patronising about it!

            I wish I shared your experience of people becoming awakened to the seizure of the BBC by the Left but, sadly, most of the people I encounter seem supremely unaware of what its going on. Even highly educated and naturally sceptical friends rarely seem to stop and question what they are being told. You must have a better class of friend and I envy you.

          Very rarely watch or listen to the BBC these days. Exceptions are Ken Bruce, The Archers (Mrs jtf is a fan) and the occasional BBC4 offering, the reason being that whatever the channel or time of day or programme, 9 times out of 10 within minutes the BBC will be pushing one of it’s favourite agendas i.e. Islam, mass immigration, ‘climate change’, the EU, multiculturalism, internationalism, LGBTAtoZ, racism, the Palestinian cause (complete with lies and omissions) etc etc. Not even Cbeebies is exempt.

          I have been able to open the eyes of seversl friends and rellies to their stinking, subversive bias – others are still mesmerised by their claim to impartiality and truth and remain to be convinced. All I can say to them is ‘You will eventually have your waking up moment, by which time it might be too late’.

    ”Karen McDougal apologises to Melania Trump for alleged affair”

    _100538238_gettyimages-96481188.jpg
    Former Playboy model Karen McDougal, who claims she had an affair with President Donald Trump in 2006, has apologised to his wife Melania Trump.

    In a CNN interview, Ms McDougal said she would tell the first lady she was sorry for the alleged 10-month affair and she “wouldn’t want it done to me”.

    She also revealed that she cried on the way
    home after Mr Trump offered her money during their first encounter.

    Ms McDougal is one of three women who have launched law suits over affairs or sexual assault claims involving the president.

    These are the other two:

  44. Annunaki says:

    On Thursday night’s Sean Hannity segment, conservative political commentator Tomi Lahren and Democratic strategist Jessica Tarlov went head to head over a question that’s come up again amid the nation’s reckoning with sexual abuse: Was Hillary Clinton complicit in her husband’s own alleged misdeeds?

    “I know that the liberals hate it when we still talk about Hillary, but I think it’s important that if we go all the way back to Bill and that we follow it through Hillary,” Lahren said on the show. “She just ran for president on the whole women card, the whole female empowerment. Hillary is just as responsible as Bill was.”

    Tarlov rejected the idea that Hillary Clinton could bear the same responsibility as her husband, who has been accused of sexual harassment or assault by three women: Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey and Paula Jones.

    “Tomi, if Bill Clinton raped Juanita Broaddrick, I don’t know how you can say that Hillary Clinton is just as responsible,” Tarlov said. “Think about what you’re saying here. I know you want to say she enabled—”

    The two continued to debate the question in a heated exchange, touching on President Donald Trump’s Access Hollywood hot mic comments and the more than a dozen allegations against him. When faced with these accusations in the home stretch of the 2016 election, Trump relied on Bill Clinton’s history of alleged misconduct to hurt his opponent. Mere hours before one of the final presidential debates, Trump held a press conference with Broaddrick, Willey, Jones and a fourth woman, Kathy Shelton—whose alleged rapist had been defended by a young Hillary Clinton—in attempts to remind voters of Hillary Clinton’s alleged shady past of helping her husband cover up his alleged sexual misconduct.

    “Actions speak louder than words,” Broaddrick said at the time, referring to Trump’s Access Hollywood comments, which involved Trump bragging about grabbing women “by the pussy” without their consent.

    “Mr. Trump may have said some bad words, but Bill Clinton raped me, and Hillary Clinton threatened me,” Broaddrick added. “I don’t think there’s any comparison.”

        Yes, I see malign design in this, not incompetence or accident.

        “Front Row” (the Radio 4 Arts show from 19:15) was busy pushing the multi-ethnic agenda again today. Yet another ethnic presenter (her name sounded like Gayleen Gould, but my spelling might be wrong) to go with Samira Ahmed, Stig Abel and others.

        Plenty of promotion of Blacks and their supposedly unique experience, plus the claim that they were here two thousand years ago (as Roman soldiers) AND THEREFORE that they have in a sense always been here (not true) and are just as British as anyone else, when the truth is that the great majority arrived only after 1948. The presenter couldn’t pronounce “Apres-midi d’un Faune” when talking about Debussy but described him as being “out there” (meaning, I think, avant garde, ground-breaking) one hundred years ago. We don’t need the language of street rap and pop charts to describe Debussy and we don’t need minorities to reinterpret European culture for us.

        Why does the f^(king BBC hate the indigenous White people of Britain so much? Why are minorities now over-represented on radio and TV? And why are we forced to pay for this BBC sh#t?
