Two good pieces of news
The EU withdrawal bill received Royal Assent-
and
the US Supreme Court ruled that President Trump’s ban on travel from certain Islamic States was lawful .
No doubt all of those politicians sneering at him for attempting to defend his country will issue fulsome apologies .
Al beeb quickly found other stories to tak attention away but we bear witness to their bias.

Something’s stirring these days.
Verhofstadt’s getting a real kicking in the Guardian: “Guess who helped the rise of Europe’s mini-Trumps? Brexit-poisoned Britain”. Poor Guy’s having a bit of a tantrum about everything really, and — what’s the phrase round these parts — comments could be going better?
Again, filter by ‘recommended’ comments and see what’s happening. I hate to use the word, but it really does appear to be a… backlash.
Must be a lot of head scratching going on in King’s Cross.

Guess who helped the rise of Europe’s mini-Trumps? Brexit-poisoned Britain {theguardian.com 28jun2018}
There’s some worrying people commenting on this article, MM.
Brexit bad for Britain’s health say doctors.
Maybe they should be concerning themselves that the NHS is bad for some Britons’ health, judging by recent revelations!

”strongmen such as Viktor Oiban abuse basic rule of law and threaten European democracy. And Britain has stayed silent”
I’ll rewrite that:
strongpersons such as the British government abuse basic rule of law (Tommy Robinson) and ignore democracy (Brexit), And the Guardian has stayed silent

Theresa May seems to have gotten us a trade deal from Australia (the same Australia that has these ‘far right groups’ according to the BBC) yet no word from the actual BBC yet and nothing from the very high and mighty opposition (in the BBC’s eyes) either so a good day for the country maybe?
Oh an the Tories are in the lead in the polls again, which of course will be swept under the carpet by the left as usual

Island – I would not be surprised if that has been her tactic all along.
I have said this on other bloggs but it is obvious that she is either unwilling or unable to negotiate a proper brexit and favours the “soft” option which as we all know is no brexit at all.
It is obvious that she has no desire for us to leave the EU as she has fudged every test from the fishing fleets to uprgrading our borders to retaining a cabinet dominated by the likes of Hammond, deliberately pissing off the POTUS and more recently signing up to the Eu “army”
What I think will happen is this
Because she is a political coward she will seek to have a “peoples vote” on the deal. When she finally delivers (after many 2am summonses by Junker to Brussels) and waves her piece of paper with her dogs dinner sell out/ “agreement” we all get another vote and people will either boycott the “peoples vote” because the agreement is rubbish or vote against it – because it is rubbish. If we vote against it we will be temporarily in the EU anti room until Labour get elected and bin the whole of brexit.
If enough of us boycott the vote because what we are offered is a completely humiliating sell out then the Euro loving, chicken hearted remainers will carry the vote and we are stuck with a “soft” brexit and Theresa gets what she wants.
Basically we have all been right royally stiffed – as I said a couple of years ago she is evasive for a reason, and the reason , is that she wants to keep everyone onside until it is too late.
I am sure the likes of Mogg realise what is going on and I think his lack of action shows us that pretty much no-one in the Conservative part can be trusted on this issue. It is no surprise that the first three letters of the Conservative party spell CON.
“EU plan secure migrant centres ”
If President Trump had planned these, Al Beeb would report them as being Concentration Camps.
Al Beeb hates Trump but loves the EU.
It never ends bias, blatant and transparent bias. Evan a child could see through it.
Many, many years ago, Ann Widdycombe proposed that the asylum claims of all prospective migrants should be examined (by British officials) whilst they were still in in their countries of origin, and only if all criteria were met were any to be allowed into Britain. I think this was when she was in Michael Howard’s department. Naturally, her proposal was scorned by the BBC and the Deep State, and nothing came of it.
Too sensible, Martin.
MartinW, that is the requirement of some internationally agreed convention – Geneva? – that you apply in the country of origin to migrate. You only have access to the Vienna Convention if you have become a refugee thanks to war or persecution. Then you should strictly apply to and in the first ‘safe’ country you reach after escape from your country of origin.
Brexit: ‘Last call’ for deal, Donald Tusk warns UK
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-44655080
Donald Tusk has issued a “last call” to the UK to “lay the cards on the table” if a Brexit deal is to be done in time.
usual charade of the pretend fight between the EU and UK .
Cast:
Theresa Mary May——————————– Jean-Claude Juncker
Production 2016 – ?
Plot ( includes spoilers)
Following an unexpected election result , aspiring globalist lackey Theresa Mary May teams up with old pro Jean-Claude Juncker- who is a master of the long con – to take revenge on the Brexit voters and steal their prize.
The pair set about implementing an elaborate scheme, so crafty that Brexiteers won’t even know they been swindled.
A series of fancy, faked scenes show May all alone at every single EU summit – giving the impression that no way could she be one of them, even gaining the marks sympathy, who fail to grasp they are getting played the whole time.
Strong woman May then embarks on a series of tough negotiations, but somehow always manages to end up with the worse possible deal imaginable – all explained away because she is weak and hapless..
As their big con unfolds, however, things don’t go according to plan, as the UK economy actually picks up, requiring some last-minute improvisation by the undaunted duo….
Eventually the grifters prevail , overturn democracy and steal the first prize
The caper also features several faded stars, desperate for any exposure.
One Tony Blair who featured in three disastrous war movies, is paid for a walk on role. in one scene he blocks a Brexit supporter from getting his story to the news desks in time.

You left out the psychologically damaged henchman who wakes up screaming from the ghosts of those killed in unneeded wars started because of his lies – as well as a deranged peer or two whose lithium keeps running out resulting in him rambling on about” 17 million means nothing “
The RAF is 100 years old so Paddy O’Connell on Jeremy Vine manages to make it all about the Spitfire. By a strange coincidence John Nicol, a BBC favourite, just happens to have written a book called.. ‘Spitfire’, so he gets a free book-plugging slot.
Were my ears deceiving me or did Nicols describe navigators flying in Spitfires, pretty rare for a single-seat fighter I would have thought? As expected we got to hear about the real Spitfire heroes, the ‘girls’ of ATA, who learned to fly on ‘Fiestas’ and then moved on to ‘Ferraris’, (just like the men?). It occurs to me that by proportion probably more women in the ATA had flying licences before the war than the men, for the simple reason that vastly more men who had never flown before got to learn very quickly in the gunsights of the ME109s.
Don’t forget the women that built the plane! (No men involved apparently). To push the message we had Gracie Fields singing Thing-Ummy-Bob (the girl that made the thing that is going to win the war).
I am sure that when Gracie Fields sang the song it was in the spirit of ‘we are all in this together’ whereas when the BBC plays it now it is part of doing boys down and dividing us.
The ATA women pilots were ferry pilots, that’s all. They did no fighting at all. Their aircraft were unarmed for a start.
Equality? Nope. They were not doing the same job.
But we are forced to ‘celebrate’ and ’embrace’ this early version of diversity.
These women fully accept that they weren’t doing the same job but of course the BBC/Left have to spoil that.
No Dover you are wrong .
According to Dan the “History Guy” the women fought in Spitfires in the Battle of Britain.
At least that is what he told his daughters.
The Hurricane never seems to get a mention, even though it was responsible for 55% of the “kills” in the Battle of Britain. Mind you, knowing the standard of BBC “journalism” they probably think it’s one of those windy things that damages their holiday homes in the Caribbean.
More Hurricanes in service at the off in 1939 and for the Battle of Britain. Easier to build the Hurricane; the Spitfire required new manufacturing techniques & some difficult metalworking. Also better gun platform, I am informed Lobby, as well as slightly easier to fly if inexperienced. Think early Spits wobbled a bit and went backwards if cannon were fitted and used.
Hurricane was slower and IIRC slightly less brilliant in a combat situation but could take a lot more punishment and keep on flying if the pilot was OK. However, as the Spit was advanced post B-o-Britain and pilots got more hours on them (pilots’ life expectancy in the BoB was none too good), things changed.
In addition, the Spitfire got faster with development but the Hurricane design meant that it would be a bit of a dependable plodder.
‘Twas said of the Spit in the hands of someone with the hours on them, that you didn’t actually move the controls, you just thought you had done afterwards.
Always wondered why more not made of the Merlin, common to the Hurricane, Spitfire, Mosquito and Lancaster…
Jim, they’re all good points, but don’t forget the contribution of Miss Shilling’s Orifice.
Ooops, sorry RJ, for the repetition.
JimS, think you are right. Two-seater Spits were built later (although it is really a modern craze – converting air-frames for a second seat) – didn’t know about the Nicol book. There are loads of other books out there. I have Alfred Price’s ‘A Complete Fighting History’ on a shelf somewhere.
Women did indeed build and deliver Spitfires and Hurricanes, too. Men did the difficult bit, designing and dealing with Civil Servants. Women did the other difficult bit, learning how to create and consistently make compound curves in metal (for the Spitfire) and coming up with some clever solutions to problems. I have just been reminded of Mrs Shilling’s Orifice 🙂 (see Wiki) while fact checking.
Please tell me if, on this Jordan Peterson video, he does not set out vividly and accurately precisely what we are surrounded by at present.

Bias on BBC Wales.
They referred, at least by implication, in Wales Today, to Aneuran Bevin as being Welsh.
He was born in Tredegar on 15 November 1897. He lived in Tredegar for most of his life. He died in Chesham on 6 July 1960.
Tredegar was, for his lifetime and for several hundred years before and for ever since in the County of Monmouth which was in England from the Laws in Wales Act of 1535 until April 1974 when it was moved into Wales.

Interesting Moments on BBC R4 #2 Friday Any Questions
Shadow Leader of the House of Lords, Baroness Smith of Basildon had checked up how Alan Duncan MP, the Europe Minister, had previously voted when the third Heathrow runway had come before Parliament some years ago. Dimbleby Minor did not hurriedly repeat one of his standard mantras “Of course The Panel are unaware of the questions in advance.” this time.
BBC headline this morning…”Surge in Britons getting EU nationality”…it reads…”The dramatic increase is consistent across many countries…”…It goes on…”The most frequent new nationality was German, which saw a huge jump from just 594 cases in 2015 up to 7,493 in 2017.
Some Facts and objectivity:
1. Since Britain voted to leave the European Union last year, thousands of Jewish people with German heritage from WWII have applied for dual/German nationality. In essence, why wouldn’t they keep their options open.
2. The actual total figure seeking EU nationality in 2017 was 12,994. Now, from a population of 65 million, does this really constitute a ‘surge’? Could this comparative number ever be described as ‘dramatic’? Clearly not.
3. By comparison….30,000 EU nationals applied to become British citizens between June 2016 and June 2017, double the previous year and more than double the figure which motivated the BBC headline today.
This is a fake news, bias and overtly political motivated anti-Brexit piece of shite, given prime front page headline space on their Website.
While not surprised my contempt only deepens.
