Good one RT is carrying a good one about the polytechnic / uni of Brighton carrying a sex workers guide in the freshers exhibition – obviously a potential career for those with 2:2s in meedja studies.
That’s got to be a wimmin s ‘ hour special.

Sex workers? Damn sight more useful than meedja studies grads, or most ‘arts’ degrees. They do an honest night’s work and give pleasure to their customers, which is more than can be said of the beeb.
(And you’re not forced to pay them if you don’t want their services.)

Sex workers. Do they exist? I lived for 15 years in Manchester’s red light district in Whalley Range, saw them sitting on the walls near the park each day. Used to chat with them. They sold drugs, fenced stolen goods, participated in muggings of would be clients, but never to my knowledge engaged in sex – far too risky.

Ah big – I left the gender issue open in my comment since sex working is ( presumably ) an equal opportunity career .

They’re saying now that the stand was set up to educate potential ‘sex workers’ on sexual health, in a ‘fun way’… which is laudable, I guess.
Still, if it was my 18 year old son, just left home for the first time and being confronted with that during Freshers week it would make me squirm too… I know you can’t protect them from reality for ever, and we live in a screwed up ‘reality’ right now, don’t we?
Especially at Unis and on the BBC it seems.

So yes, it probably does get to other countries out there with their own version of tipping on the fly.

We have a new chapter of bonkers bored middle class housewives round here posting bloody meat trays and dumping packs on supermarket conveyors. They seem scary. Some blonde, fat, tattooed, bespectacled and prone to jabbing fingers. All with Diesel Volkswagen SuVs.

The stupendous marketing of bottled water to be carried around by most of the word’s population can carry some of the blame for plastic dumping. And of course manufacturers who give us their produce in ready wrapped.
As someone who has never drunk ‘water / coffee on the go’ and has always had milk delivered in glass bottles, I object and am deeply offended to be told off by those who probably still do, and get all pious and tearful at the damage plastic is causing.

How commonly do drinkers suffer blackouts? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-45711410

If Kavanaugh had blacked out due to alcohol, it is very, very unlikely that he would be in a fit state to push her into a room and attempt to attack her. It should have been easy for her to escape if she had wanted to.
When I was young I often used to drink a lot, too much. But despite however drunk I sometimes got, I never blacked out. Unfortunately I was always able to remember everything the morning after! I know that if I had ever tried to commit an assault on a woman when I was drunk that, despite me being tall, any woman would have been able to get away from me easily.
Her story does not add up. I thought at first that someone might have assaulted her. I now wonder if she was ever actually assaulted at all and that this is all a choreographed sham, planned with “Democrat” Party requirements in mind.
Maybe she used to fantasize about being assaulted when she was young and in her therapy sessions it was her fantasy memory that was triggered not a real memory.
If, however, she is telling the truth and Kavanaugh as a 17 year old did try to grope her, her acting performances and “Democrat” Party convenient timings make it look as though he is innocent. This would do women who have been genuinely attacked a grave dis-service, as they will be less likely to come forward because there will now be a great deal of scepticism on future claims. This last sentence is even more valid if Kavanaugh is innocent.

Their focus on mass immigration will be the death of the EU.
Now we are witnessing the Globalists devotees, Merkel, Treezer, Macron and others sticking rigidly and doggedly to the UN/Globalist/Soros migration policy whereas others in the EU elite are vocally beginning to do as all other reptilian politicians do, slither toward changing sides.

2018-10-01 BBC News Europe.
A senior scientist who said physics “was invented and built by men” has been suspended with immediate effect from working with the European nuclear research centre Cern.
Prof Alessandro Strumia, of Pisa University, made the comments during a presentation organised by the group
He told his audience of young, predominantly female physicists that his results “proved” that “physics is not sexist against women. However the truth does not matter, because it is part of a political battle coming from outside”.
He produced a series of graphs which, he claimed, showed that women were hired over men whose research was cited more by other scientists in their publications, which is an indication of higher quality.
Just as well for the professor he did not use the term white.
The BBC provides quotes from two female scientists stating how bad the bias is.
The BBC provides no quotes whatsoever on whether the claims of, unofficial affirmative action, as I shall call it, are true.

The muslim home secretary is apparently going to present his plans to curb immigration after march next year. But he seems to be only talking about EU immigrants.
He’s also voiced concerns about the paklanders who have been raping our children. Now if he was serious about reducing the number of immigrants who come to our country, contribute nothing and engage in violence, rape torture and murder, wouldn’t a good starting point be to stop paklanders and other dangerous muslims, such as banglas and somalis from coming here? And here’s the truth, he could do that now because it has nothing to do with the EU.
But instead he uses his position to persecute anyone who dares to speak out against these muslim atrocities or is critical of islam. And yet people keep voting for these traitors.

AMW is being too kind. I dont think journalists such as Sky,s Jason Greaseball are stupid at all.
They know exactly what they are doing. They know that the Government, establishment and media have decided that for whatever reason Islam is to be protected at all costs, and have reasoned (quite rightly) that their career development depends on enthusiastically parroting the same wearisome pro Islamic platitudes rather than focusing on the actual truth.
They are nothing more than ambitious Quislings, more than willing to try and sell to us any half baked politically correct bullshit even if in the long term it results in the destruction of all that we hold dear.
As Tommy said to Jason when he was released from prison “Why should I speak to you – all you do is lie”
The fact that they found it necessary to re-edit the interview shows that they are more than aware of what they are doing.
These people really are the scum of the earth.

If the commies in the USA win this battle and prevent Mr Kavanaugh from becoming a supreme court justice, it will be a very dark day for the rule of law as opposed to the rule of hate filled collectivists and the mentally unstable.
In addition, every boy from the age of puberty will have to be very careful about what he does, says and where he goes to for entertainment and with whom he associates, particularly women. He had better not get drunk, chat up girls, do stupid stuff that young men do when they’re together. In fact they should all become hermits and remain celibate for their whole life.
The Tommy Robinson persecution, the President Trump persecution, the Brett Kavanaugh persecution, these are all manifestations of the existential war that has been declared on men, especially heterosexual men and if it isn’t won by normal, heterosexual men reasserting themselves then the destruction of Western civilization is almost certainly assured.

Sometimes the BBC are their own worst enemies, through sheer ineptitude and bias.
Watched the programme about plastic in the sea. Now personally i think it is a genuine problem which needs a decent airing. But the programme……….
Naturally the programme is used as a round the world jolly, so we start in Lord Howe Island, off the coast of Queensland. Nice if you can get it. We are treated to many examples of the presenter (female, non-white needless to say) emoting and looking shocked and forlorn at the contents of sheerwater birds’ stomachs. Ok, we got it from the start, you don’t need to keep on with the emoting. Then its off to Indonesia to see a river of plastic floating on, well, a river. The problem (which I’ve seen in India for myself) is totally inadequate, often non-existent, refuse collection, due to local and national (usually emerging economies) government failings. But that is swiftly brushed aside and we are told the problem is down to those nasty private sector global brands selling products in sachets. Weird thing was, in all the coverage of plastic floating on water or submerged beneath it, there were no sachets to be seen.
So the programme is human interest driven, full of presenter emoting, and with the usual private sector targets. What could have been useful is rendered useless with questionable credibility by the BBC’s insatiable bias and dreadful lefty agenda and editorialising.

Let’s face it – if Wimmin didn’t keep on pumping out babies the population would fall and the planet would heal itself in a Giai kind of way . It’s all their fault and they just push the blame onto chaps.

Are ‘nuclear blasts’ of equal impact? At what distance? And what happens at No. 76?

Caught a bit of Jeremy Vine today. Some female supposed to be working in the field of High Energy Physics said that their ‘top-priority’ was ‘gender equality’. We are truly doomed if she represents the quality of thinking in UK universities.
A thought experiment: One could take a representative sample of the UK adult population and measure their heights or the reflectance of their hair. It would be then possible to establish the median value at which the population at large is evenly split. Then when recruiting physics professors one simply chooses those that equalise the heights/reflectance for your faculty. How exactly that improves research or how one actually achieves ‘equality’ across multiple factors is surely worth a Nobel prize!

Interesting to surmise, if there was an asteroid on its way to destroy the earth they would have to assemble a team to attempt to stop it, I can just hear the dialogue, well, firstly we need some wimmin and some muslims and some black people….BOOOOM never mind watch for the tsunami, now we will need some wimmin engineers and rescuers …etc etc…

The East Asians must be laughing now. The Chinese in particular.
They see the West basically giving up on excellence to pursue an equality of mediocrity.

The boris speech was far better than most of the other TelePrompter bore fests at the actual conference but he still pulled his punches . He didn’t call out the bastards in Brussels who deserve a drop of novichook for the disrespect they have shown Blighty -he had a nice line about being able to negotiate with barnier -or tusk or whoever.
Please – can we just get them to walk away from the negotiations so we can go to WTO – and see who suffers the most .? ( krauts of course ).

Maybe Emily is a jewel? Or Katty? Or Anthony? Or any of the legions of bbc ‘reporters’ seeking to minimise the awkward aspects of the man who has guaranteed bbc survival on his watch.

Interestingly twitter is going ballistic… but only within the media bubble. No one else appears to give a rat’s.
Might have been a genius move. At the moment the best they can muster is huffing and puffing and trying to convince even themselves about ‘solidarity’, but there is bound to be ambitious scabs out there.
Frankly I could care less about the MSM, as they don’t hold power to account now anyway. They are simply poorly disguised activists.
I’ll get my news and analysis elsewhere based on facts rather than gotcha interviews, dodgy edits and wafflefests to avoid saying anything, and then wield my vote accordingly.

Those who twitter are twitter wankers i.e. momentum etc, twitter storm = lots of wankersshouting at each other, their lack of education or verbal ability is acknowledged by only allowing them to shout at each other in one sentence, and their complete inability of precis means abuse is their only recourse

Interesting to know : muslim infiltration of Eurozone vs USA, and muslim rape gangs in Eurozone vs USA, I strongly believe that the USA would have a different approach to multiple muslim gangs across the country repeatedly raping USA teenagers, from both the authorities and their citizens, say what you like about their democracy and constitution, but the outrage of their citizens would ring a damn sight louder that it does here and probably involve a double barrel shotgun, something that all right thinking citizens here would probably like to use as justice

Its about time we had a British constitution that all immigrants had to sign up to immediately, a binding legal document, regarding their behaviour and opinions about this country and its culture and laws and religions upon arriving, specifically designed to prevent, for example a certain, unemployed benefit receiving muslim immigrant in Luton very vocal in local news websites, who has decided that our country is decadent and demanding all muslims be educated separately in schools paid for by British taxpayers

HRH Jon snow goes to twitter to bitch about not being given access to the PM at the Party conference . good. I wish more politicians would stop appearing before grandstanding journos and go straight to twitter instead .
Journos are about getting sound bites for their own political beliefs – not explaining to the public in a clear and unbiased way
By the way tories – sell channel for to a private buyer . The State should not be involved in broadcasting .

Shock horror, Kavanaugh may (or may not) have once thrown some ice cubes at someone. This proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that the man is a rapist and mass murderer, and is unfit for high office.
There are rumours he once farted too.

Clinton is a sex criminal it is all availalble on the web, where is the outrage ? the Jimmy Savill of America and his wife has the nerve to stand for election after attacking the victims, also racist attacks when standing aginst Obama and the silly bitches marching thru London protesting about Trump ? what a twisted world
If any one is in any doubt about a dark agenda in America just check out Clinton’s sex crimes, and the many other corrupt dealings versus the fuss made about any any person associated with Trump and, as they say, go figure……
