In 1965, the American horse Jay Trump, fresh from a repeat victory in the Maryland Cup, travelled across the pond and won the Grand National. Later that year, the horse took part in the Grand Steeplechase in France, coming third.
In 1970 the great Nijinski, trained in Ireland and winner of the Irish Derby, also won the English ‘triple crown’, the last horse to do so.
In 1971, the great horse Mill Reef won the Derby, and later the Prix de l’arc de Triomphe.
I mention these as just three examples of the free movement of horses before the UK joined the then EEC.
Readers will easily therefore see the doom-and-gloom Remoaning on the BBC today about post-Brexit horse transport for the deliberate scaremongering trash that it is.

How to be your own boss BBC style:
1) Get a job as a favoured minority of any sorts on the BBC
2) If a newsreader burble incoherently so no one can understand a single word you say. To supplement this add a growly back of the throat croak like a teenager.
3) If interviewing and person is non BBC approved shout over or interrupt.
4) Ignore all complaints and loss of viewers
5) Register a BS company name and declare yourself self employed.
Voila.

Al Beeb shows us that a”CCTV has captured the moment a balaclava-clad man dragged a police officer out of a patrol car and threw her to the ground following an armed robbery at a petrol station.”

A friend of mine who was in the Paras, said that he had no problem with women in the army as long as they crewed their own tanks and had their own Regiments.

Bad eel,
The only slam dunk I see is that the whole interview below is a Liberati Halloween nightmare.

I don’t think the Frances Weetman ‘twitter storm’ clip was typical of the full interview , (thank you Dykevisions), in that it was supposed to be a quick-fire Q & A ’round’ rather than more discussive form that makes up the bulk.
Helen Lewis is an idealogue and sees Peterson as a threat to her learnt world view. Cathy Newman, on the other hand, knows the ‘bullet points’ and used them against Peterson but didn’t get anywhere and indeed was probably charmed by and quite liked him.
Helen Lewis really loses the argument about twenty minutes in when it is established that an all-male profession is an example of the ‘patriarchy’ while an all-female profession is also an example of the male-patriarchy. If she was capable of any independent thought she should have done a ‘Cathy’ then and realised that her own argument destroyed itself.
Lewis’ argument really comes down to, “The king is overall ruler, he is a man, therefore all men rule all women.” Whereas all men, (except the king), see everyone as the king’s subjects. (The king is a metaphor for life itself, finite and ultimately fatal).

Helen Lewis clearly had no idea that she was “losing” (she spoke in an accompanying written article in terms of winning and losing). She was unwittingly outclassed from beginning to end in a thoroughly entertaining discussion. At one point she said, “I am about to become a Fellow of Oxford University”. Does such a thing exist?

According to Al Beeb “Scotland Yard has hired specialists to look into branded clothing, toys and games, stationary, homeware and tourist souvenir items”
They have not reported yet ‘another’ stabbing in London.
Do we have a police force any more? Have M&S taken over policing thanks to successive ‘wet’ Home Secretaries? Just look at their track record.

Working in the digital media industry I have been a close professional watcher of Google for more than 10 years.
Their search algorithm is closely guarded, and over time a fair deal of expertise has developed that is geared to second-guessing the Google algorithm and ‘optimising’ websites accordingly.
Getting closely involved in this is no longer part of my day-job, but I would say I have developed a good nose or instinct for how Google ‘thinks’ and prioritises in search. The most weight goes to ‘authority’. This is Google’s synthesis of what we might naturally call authority, and reflects the importance of a web page or site and thereby the prominence it gets in the results for a search.
Factors that influence it include how long the domain has been in situ, viewership, shares of the content, links to the content from elsewhere etc. All sensible common-sense stuff. I have not felt over the last decade that Google ‘fiddled’ their results.
But I do now. There have been studies into this that support my hunch, but what I am seeing now – specifically in news search results – leads me to believe that they have ‘tweaked’ their algorithm to favour news outlets with a ‘liberal’ or especially social justice-driven agenda. This could easily be done by some sleight of hand that favours certain publications obliquely by weighting up some other shared characteristic they had. This would nicely mask the bias they put in and make it difficult to expose.
This seemed to me quite vivid in an ‘innocent’ search I just did (let alone like one for e.g. ‘black lives matter’) which was: ‘Is YouTube TV coming to the UK?’
The first page search results (omitting non-news titles) was:
1. BBC (as almost always these days) – a long boxed ‘rich snippet’
3. The Guardian
4. BBC
6. The Mirror
9. TVLicensing.co.uk
While the BBC has effectively ‘bought’ its authority by being the dominant UK news provider, and blanket bombing the web as well as the airwaves, I find that it is the ‘far left’ providers who almost always dominate news search results. I think we can safely assume that Google – just like the BBC are now abusing their authority.

For the first time in a few years I’ve had the trick or treaters knocking on the door tonight.
I don’t participate because it’s a pagan festival and I think this is just making it acceptable to innocent children; also it’s an American ritual, not something we do; until recently.
What is frightening is how angry the parents become when I decline to join in and give them my reason for not doing so. If I didn’t have security cameras I’m sure one of the fathers would have actually hit me tonight.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have any advice on how to turn them away without feeling threatened?

The secret pact: Austria won’t be signing either, the beeb unlikely to report. In fact, this must be the biggest, but least reported on, virtue-signalling exercise ever.
In December the UN Compact for Migration is due to be signed in Morocco. Today Austrian Chancellor Kurz indicated that Austria, as a sovereign nation, was not minded to sign away its right to decide on who comes to live in Austria. In fact, they’re unlikely to even send a representative to Marrakech.
Other non-signatories: the US, Hungary, Poland and Australia. It goes without saying that Germany will sign. Twice, if it could. Or thrice, if up to Merkel.
What is Ms May doing, other than keeping very, very quiet about it?

In my day it was the ‘unruly pupils’ that were sent home.
Liberal teachers and educationalists are to blame for brining their ‘liberal’ teaching methods into the classrooms in the 70’s. They turned the schools into undisciplined places of learning and when they lost control they got out via early retirement, leaving the education of this country in the mess it is today.

“Vegans just want to live in a moral way”
So non vegans live in a non-moral way. That is the rest of us condemned.
Replace “vegan” with any other term of your choice.
Eg “Non white people just want to live in a moral way”. “Socialists just want to live in a moral way”.
In any University philosophy course, year one, term one, week one, day one, lesson one, this nonsense would be exposed in the first ten minutes.
“Vegans are not a race or a gender or a sexual orientation or a differently-abled group. They just choose to eat plants.”
They “just choose to eat plants”, but how many animals are killed so they can do so?
Every minute the digestive system of every vegan alive kills three million bacteria, bacteria which are not plants.
Every minute several billion bacteria, arthropods and other invertebrates are killed by the whole “plant food” processing system from seed planting to plate.
The next time I hear an apology for this mass murder, from any “animal lover”, will be the first time.
Perhaps my experience is atypical, but I know vegetarians (who are a lower order of vegan, according to the vegans I meet) are vegetarians, because they tell me. In fact most people who I newly meet, and discover to be vegetarians, are keen to introduce their vegetarianism at the first non-opportunity. To demonstrate their moral superiority. The only trait that outranks this sense of moral supremacy is indignation when the shallow base of their cherished belief is exposed.
In many cases, I then discover these proudly self-confessed vegetarians not only have what I regard as juvenile ideas about diet. They also have juvenile (a la BBC) ideas about politics, history and other adult subjects.

Is that why O’Brien isn’t wearing the, apparently, compulsory media-poppy? (Doesn’t that screw up re-purposing programme material later in the year?).
Although the poppy is now used to commemorate all war dead it did, of course, originate from The Great War, which wasn’t about Nazis or Facism.
Facism is over-used as a term of abuse and I admit to using it myself in the past to describe the actions of the Royal British Legion in trying to impose a universal ‘eleventh hour’ silence on us all, rather that just letting those that want a moment of communal memory to take part in Remembrance Sunday events.
It is typically arrogant of O’Brien to assume that he knows why people went to war, I would think that their reasons were as varied as the individuals themselves, a concept alien to closed-mind collectivist like O’Brien.
As an aside, I saw They Shall Not Grow Old today. It was well worth seeing.

Roland,
The few minutes of Newsnight I caught during a break in “Salvage Hunters” had Mantis, sorry, Maitlis, interviewing a Virginian Democrat Party spokesman and campaigners, keen to highlight their efforts to enlighten the people of West Virginia who insist on voting Republican. We were reassured that they were hopeful of a midterm win, although we were warned that they might not succeed, despite support in the polls. She then spoke to a couple of voters, white and heterosexual, at an American football or baseball game.
Perfectly respectable, articulate, seemed well off and in their 40s I’d say. The man, after his partner had initially declined to state who she, when asked as a woman of course, was going to vote for in the mid-terms, stated that they would vote Republican and that they liked Trumps policies and their results.
The woman then said that her and many like her felt this way but kept this amongst themselves and their social circles. They did not voice their opinions or express their views when asked due to the hostility and abuse that they then encountered because there is a misplaced assumption that women must vote Democrat. She insisted that many women , contrary to polls and assertions, were behind Trump and would vote accordingly.
The collective disappointment of the bBBC, Newsnight and Maitlis in particular was palpable.

No opposing scientific view offered by the BBC.
The BBC don’t support anything other than ‘settled science’.
Einstein and Newton would not have been impressed.

Thing is, effective propaganda was at least subtle. All it needed was to call it ‘BBC Blexit analysis’ and they could have hidden behind the notion they were reporting.
But no, the twats know they are currently still Teflon standing bawling propaganda slogans in the audience’s faces like a blood vessel bursting antifa feminist trying to sucker punch a vet.

Interesting use of ‘we’ when the bbc arts grads in senior management have cheerfully admitted they are banning counter arguments they don’t want heard.

“Scientists base their predictions about how much the Earth is warming by adding up all the excess heat that is produced by the known amount of greenhouse gases that have been emitted by human activities.
This new calculation shows that far more heat than we thought has been going into oceans. But it also means that far more heat than we thought has been generated by the warming gases we have emitted. “
Wow! So (greenhouse) ‘warming’ gases now generate heat! Perhaps we could use carbon dioxide to heat our homes?
One of the few certainties in climate science has got to be the amount of energy received from the Sun. Some will be reflected back into space, some reaches the Earth’s surface and some will heat the atmosphere to the extent that it can radiate enough heat to maintain equilibrium. These ‘scientists’ have made some new calculations (settled science?) and have ‘found’ more energy than they can account for so instead of checking the basis of their calculations they have shoved the extra ‘under the carpet’ i.e. into the oceans, where they can’t measure it. How convenient.

We now know that the murder of Jamal Khashoggi was ordered by the Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman personally and dozens of senior people were involved.
The Saudis have lied and cheated from the very start, as arabs have a tendency to do, whether it be in business or sport.
I’m really looking forward to Shami Chakrabarti’s statement on the whole affair, or is she too busy trying to find reasons to blame the jews?

But at least the bbc have discovered the cause of death: apparently the human body responds badly to being tortured, strangled and dismembered.

Anybody hear our Justin’s item this morning on Toady regarding the US Mid-terms? Anti Trump bias from start to finish. Saying that, ‘finish’ not exactly: I turned off having established the bias.
Next, the UN Migration Compact. I reported on this last weekend. This is, in my view, the next World shattering event. Need to refresh memories? Let the UN itself, remind us what lying Treezer signed us up to in this short 2.5 min video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LL87BK5OSz8
It seems that only now, people are begining to wake up to the conspiracy between the NWO/Soros/UN and Governments. Brittany Pettibone – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmf_V0lbWwg

G:
I turned the radio on this morning at about 8.20.
The Today programme was in full force. The first words I heard were to the effect that the American economic recovery was not really helping people, and that is why the Trump regime had to resort to xenophobia about the migrant army heading for Texas.
The prediction was that the Democrats would gain control of the House of Representatives, and some state governorships.
All will be well in the world, in other words.
The interviewee was someone called Seth Harris. Wikipedia tells me he was Obama’s Secretary of Labor. He now makes a living off cushy numbers in academia and company directorships.
I’d like to say I was surprised, but how can I? The first few minutes of my listening day, and it is pure anti-Trump propaganda from a partisan American “commentator”.
They don’t bother to hide the bias any more. Perhaps like “climate change”, the idea that there could be another point of view just does not exist.
Defund the BBC.

Good points Rob!
“I’d like to say I was surprised, but how can I? The first few minutes of my listening day, and it is pure anti-Trump propaganda from a partisan American “commentator”.”
As a fully paid-up member of ‘Sleepless in Kent’, it’s just as bad at three o’clock in the morning. This morning’s ‘efforts’ by the boring Rhod Sharpe were just as anti-President Trump as they could be, if you can stay awake to his entirely dull delivery, and inadequate ‘guests’, all care of Eastern US leftie rags and unis.
There’s also an autocue reader who gabbles his way through single lines of ‘news’ every half hour. In between sentences, we’re subjected to a nervous gulp, then a breathy, unpleasant gasp before the next mouthful of crap is released.
The items are worthless, as they are meaningless.
But after that, the fill-in bit starts with some shrieking maniac, declaring at the top of his irritating voice that Radio5 Live is the best channel for live football.
Great.
Some of us don’t follow football, but worse, we don’t need to have some mindless idiot bellowing down the earphones about some over-paid crappy plonker who thinks an Aston Martin is a cross between an Villery place in the midlands, and a chocolate dog treat, but buys one anyway!

Even for a BBC sofa sloth bimbo the lack of information or context behind this is breathtaking.
Unless it is a ruse to get anyone who responded with their knees rather than brains excluded from jury service.

Beeb website breaking news. Arron Banks being investigated by the NCA. What a joke, will they stop at nothing. As I see it anyone who had the temerity to put their cross in the wrong box might just as well report to the nearest available Orwellian authority and hand themselves in now. What were we thinking.

Guess Who
I was thinking the same thing when the “Crime of the Century” was announced on Daily Politics. I was surprised that Suzanne Evans, the BBB’s go to disgruntled ex-UKIPer of choice was present as I thought she had disappeared from the political scene. No! She does have a purpose. She needed no prompting to say she had always known that there was someting “fishy” and immoral about the organisations Banks funded and being noble and wise had, of course, had nothing to do with them.
C4’s Matt Frei seemed to think Banks had already been investigated, tried and convicted and was suitably smug. He is always smug – but tonight seemed to be almost in “I told you so” mode. Collins spreading the usual poison.
Usual C4 blame shifting on muslim grooming gangs. It’s men’s fault, it’s the authorities fault. If there is anything wrong in “British” Pakistani communities we must sort it out ourselves otherwise those wicked rightwing people will use it to their advantage. Apparently, wicked rightwing people are attempting to undermine trials of muslim child rapists so that they can rabble rouse and claim there is no justice in the UK A veiled attack on you-know-who from those who love the veil.
It’s Nothing to do with Islam”. Not even muslim terrorism.

And continuing the general BBC Brexit shit-stirring agenda…..
In the last nine years, let’s say 100 months in round figures, the Bank of England have changed interest rates three times. To put it another way, interest rates stayed the same 97% of the time. No change is totally normal and so is barely news at all.
So in that context we consider the following shit-stirring BBC headline on their webshite front page today.
‘UK interest rates on hold amid uncertainty’
