Times interview with Prof Bruce Gilley
who was hounded for writing about positives of colonialism.
“If you’re not left wing in academia, you’re in a very hostile work environment and at a certain point you have a choice — either exit the business because you’re a pariah, or you decide not to give a sh*t anymore and just offend away, be yourself come what may. That’s where I got to. I was going to write what I thought was true.”

I suppose the biggest “Positive” of colonialism is the English language. The end result is that tonight the Eurovision Song Contest will almost be totally be in English.
I suppose the biggest “Negative” of colonialism is rule from Europe by the European elite. The end result is that the European elite think that Africa proves that nations cannot economically survive independence from European rule.

Our language is also our curse, since so many foreigners can speak it and are thus attracted to come here.
When they do they are also able to (mis-?)use our legal; benefits; health; education and social housing systems much more easily than if they couldn’t speak or understand a word of it.

Tendayi something or other is a black American
Member of the race industry who has got a job with the UN. She is telling us we are more racist after the Brexit vote. Al beeb loved this one.
I pondered on how much we pay the UN for such valuable criticism – about $100 000 000 a year – the 6th biggest donor . America pays $8 billion .
I suppose our money is a bribe to keep us on the security council .
I don’t know if the lady in question mentioned anything about black lives mattering . I’m guessing “not” anyway the latest one died today as a result of being shot earlier in the week . Killing number 65 I think – losing count .

Clear the airways – Tenayi Achiume is back in town to give us her pre-arranged view that the British are more racist after Brexit. Also under similar attack are current immigration laws despite the fact that 300,000 people a year migrate to the UK. We are however in good company. Ms Achiume has a pop at everyone, even the Swedes who have been inundated with muslim migrants and where there have been “spikes in xenophobic violence and politicised rhetoric”.
Writing for the University of California, where she is apparently a professor of law, Ms Achiume argues that the protection of national borders is an “untenable strategy”. She also regards attempts to persuade economic migrants to remain in their own countries as untenable – “to say nothing of their horrific consequences”.
Of course Ms Achiume says nothing about the consequences of sudden and mass migration, notably cultural clashes and large rises in violence. No species on earth can survive with a territorial free-for-all. Humans are a social animal but they also compete for resources, food and suitable mates – it’s just the way nature works. Without social structures based on trust including nation states and without the rule of law governing property rights we are back to a very dark age where only the strong survive.
A woman of such profound stupidity can only be employed by an American university. In addition Ms Achiume picks up human rights jobs as a special rapporteur on racism and xenophobia for the United Nations – or the United Landmass as it may well soon be called. Far from being concerned for human rights, she is interested only in taking away rights from humans.
In her warped view and using one of her favourite words, xenophobia operates from a “baseline of entitled exclusion”. In other words the nation state does not have the authority to regulate who lives within its own borders. You are not “entitled” to deny entry and furthermore you are racist and – wait for it – xenophobic. She further argues that migration channels should be expanded to include all those affected by climate change (everyone?) and “those whose involuntary movement is forced by severe socioeconomic conditions” (almost everybody?).
This woman and her appalling views are a menace to a civilised modern nation state. Shame on the BBC for giving her such publicity, allowing her to insult the British people and failing to question her underlying motives.

Hi Eddy, in this comment of yours you are criticising Lobster rather than the BBC. Yet Lobster was criticising the BBC and rejecting the way in which the BBC maliciously appropriate identity from others, for the self-serving reason of pushing the BBC’s own socio-political goals. As Lobster is one of those people from whom the BBC appropriate identity, Lobsters comment was fully appropriate and relevant.
By ignoring this and merely criticising Lobster, you are attempting to shut down relevant criticism of the BBC. And in so doing you are justifying Guest Who’s criticism of you that you are acting no differently to that of Maxincony.

Not that we needed any, but the “proof of the pudding is in the eating” as the old saying goes.
Last week’s “Freedom” demo outside Downing Street was virtually entirely ignored by the media. It received no publicity prior to the event, no coverage of the event and, of course, no comment on the event. It didn’t happen.
Had the Beeb covered the meeting it would have been one endless sneering smear job, referring to the demonstrators as “far right or “extreme right” or even “fascist.” They would certainly have mentioned Tommy’s “colourful” past and his involvement with the “far right” EDL.
Today there was another rally in central London, and guess what…the BBC and Sky have been all over it!
This TUC / Corbyn demonstration has been publicised in the news for weeks and I’ve just heard a breathless BBC harpie inform me that “Tens of thousands turned out…” She sounded as though she was drooling.
There were interviews and snatches of Compo’s speech. The “demonstrators” haven’t been tarnished with pejorative descriptions, like “far left” or “hard left” or even “ultra left.” No-one has mentioned Mr Corbyn’s long standing friendship with numerous terrorists or his deep admiration for poverty stricken, crime riddled Venezuela.
Nope, not a syllable of criticism.
We’re living in sinister times…

You only see a fraction of the problem posts, we have people who are demented racists, who do everything they can to circumvent the moderation. They are the people who have caused this jihad. My preference is not for heavy handed censorship. The people who just want to go on about race issues all the time have brought about this state of affairs.
We are close to closing comments period. 2 million comments a year means if 1% are complete cunts that is 20,000 cunt posts. We’ve had enough. It is a waste of man hours every day.

Due to historical importance, many Chechens are Sufis, of either the Qadiri or Naqshbandi orders. Most of the population follows either the Shafi’i or the Hanafi,[83] schools of jurisprudence, …..”

Caught the very end of the voting and saw that Israel was in a good position to win. The winner was a lesbian-shaped lesbian. So after the last time Israel won with a man who thought he wasn’t with an awful song I feared the worst. But, I thought it was (Eurovision standard) quite decent by being a bit different.

Great post Holly,
I have never laughed at anyone dying because I feel it is an insult to that person’s family. But, equally, seeing gushing eulogies for people who don’t deserve it is nauseating.
Tessa Jowell was part of the Blair stable that did everything possible to ruin this country. You mention the whole mortgage scandal that she was involved in – her mortgage being mysteriously paid off just after her husband received a six figure payoff from Berlusconi.
She denied knowing anything about it even though she signed the documents and the mortgage was in her name. When this was discovered she claimed she was too busy to know what documents she had and hadn’t signed.
She then engineered a PR “split” from her husband so that she could pretend it was all his fault, even though they continued to live as a married couple and it was never mentioned again.
I would never celebrate the death of such a person but to pretend that she was anything other than a deceitful, dishonest, self-serving leech from the Blair cabal of criminals is a bit rich.

Three woman on the sofa on Andrew Marr. No doubt seven different diversity/change managers are measuring how long they speak for, the shade of their skin and whether they have ever had homosexual thoughts.
I would just want one tough person to order them to stop talking bollocks and virtue signalling all the time. Just do your job for f**k’s sake and keep us informed and entertained.

How is this BDSM guide in any way news?
It is just another of those selective ‘explainer’ pieces, “One of our own got caught, but really it is all a misunderstanding and not at all bad”.
Possibly, somewhere under Oakham Parish Council local news there are ‘explainers’ telling us that there are (unlikely) reasons why someone might vote ‘Brexit’, oppose mass immigration, oppose Islamisation or think Tommy Robinson might have a valid viewpoint. (If the BBC could manage it they would publish this stuff on Alpha Centauri).

The Islamic Whitewashing Corporation has a piece on their webshite about the Paris attack that fails to mention Islam once.
He’s Chechen you see, sort-of Russian, it’s all a bit complicated, it’s political you see, nothing to do with you-know-what.
Here’s a complicated map that explains nothing at all and is just there to confuse and distract.

#1 Academic ‘Brexodus’ Fails to Materialise as EU Profs Flock to British Universities
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/05/11/academic-brexodus-fails-materialise-eu-profs-flock-uk/
‘Project Fear’ has been dealt yet another blow as a threatened ‘Brexodus’ of EU academics failed to materialise last year, with British universities attracting foreign staff in even greater numbers.
5,416 EU staff did leave the United Kingdom in 2017, but 6,801 new staff arrived — a significant net increase, and a rise in recruitment of 25 per cent on the previous year.
Same as NHS, more EU employed than leave. Labour & Remoaners never quote net, only leave.

Polish migrants living in and leaving the United Kingdom for their native country have cited concerns about life in contemporary Britain, with issues including economics, anti-white racism, and terrorist attacks.
Polish leaving Khan’s Londonistan may be more accurate.
#3 Poll Finds Immigration and Terror Top Issues for People Across Europe
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/05/11/immigration-and-terror-top-issue-facing-bloc-say-people-across-eu/
The top two issues facing the European Union (EU), according to voters in Britain, Denmark, France, Germany, Greece, Sweden, Finland, Poland, and Lithuania, are immigration and terrorism.
.. The only nation where another issue occupied one of the top two spots, according to a new YouGov poll, was Italy, where they were immigration and unemployment.
Hmm, what will EU reaction be to their people’s top issues?
#4 Macron, Merkel Call for ‘Full Force’ EU Integration, Vow Brussels Won’t Tolerate Resistance to Migrant Quotas
http://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/05/12/macron-integration-eu-migrant-quotas/
Emmanuel Macron has demanded closer and faster EU integration towards a superstate, in a speech where he vowed to “yield nothing” to conservative eastern members which believe in a Europe of strong nations.
The French president urged Brussels to move full speed ahead on monetary union and creating a single foreign policy and defence strategy for the whole bloc.
Angela Merkel also repeated previous calls for a new EU migration policy based on “solidarity” across the bloc, insisting that closing the border to people from the third world was “not a solution”.
No surprise, EU reaction is ignore voters and carry on regardless.

Rich List 2018
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-44096507
Is the Times still going?
anyway this years BBC slant on the list
seems to be work hard and you can make the list ….
umm, as opossed to the average person who can’t afford a walk on train fare.
”A businessman who once lived in a council house near Manchester is the richest person in the UK, according to the Sunday Times Rich List”
Then unusually for the BBC an anti EU plug allowed..
but why?
maybe to say you don’t need brains to get rich or something.
In 2015, he said the UK could thrive outside the European Union. “The Brits are perfectly capable of managing the Brits and don’t need Brussels telling them how to manage things,”
then they warm to the rags to riches theme
Robert Watts, who compiled the list, said: “Britain is changing. Gone are the days when old money and a small band of industries dominated the Sunday Times Rich List.
“Aristocrats and inherited wealth has been elbowed out of the list and replaced by an army of self-made entrepreneurs.
“Today’s super rich include people who have set up businesses selling chocolate, sushi, pet food and eggs.
“We’re seeing more people from humble backgrounds, who struggled at school or who didn’t even start their businesses until well into middle age.”
BBC forget about basic journalism, not giving info like,
how much wealth is needed to get on the list or
how much is derived from dirty money, 3rd world sweatshops, the property ponzi scheme and not hard work.

Listening to a repeat of Fridays ‘Any Questions’ I couldn’t help but conclude it should be renamed ‘Dimbleby Questions’ as Jonathan appeared to be the predominant questioner with the audience and panelist just there to ape a herd of trained Seals clapping their flippers in approval. A little like his brother David another example of BBC nepotism, who on BBC Ones ‘Dimbleby Time’ sees himself as unbiased and loses it when someone points out both he and the BBC are anything but.

Didn’t even know about ‘Dimbleby Time’ (thank goodness), but Jonathan is huge turn-off with his ‘ I’m the no.1 attraction around here’ approach, his predictable questions, and his biased audiences.
Don’t watch much TV, so am also spared David.
Manipulators supreme, both of them.
