Suffering Succotash!
I expect the BBC to put mr Rees Mogg on TV more now that he has shown himself to be a windbag politician like the rest – one minute saying no need to pay the €39 000 000 000 000 bribe now saying we can pay monthly during the 2 year exit process .
For those wanting Blighty to actually leave the ReichEU – our only hope seems to be the DUP- I think it would take more that money to bribe them this time . Personally I d like all the pain delivered soon – an inevitable General Election and god knows what comes after that
Totally agree Fed, the DUP are proper conservatives unlike that rabble of shite we got in government now. Treason may is the most left wing conservative every and the sooner she goes the better
First, congratulations to Jake. Has the BBC mentioned the 191 journalists currently jailed in Turkey? Journalists arrested after the “coup” was 245 but only 191 are still rotting in prison. With Turkish prisons reputation, it must be assumed some of them are already deceased. It’s fascinating that the worlds press only cares about one journalist and all the rest can go hang and probably will. I can understand the problem as they would have to type “arrested Turish Journalists” on a google search to get the full list including their arrest dates and what prisons thay are currently in. Searches are difficult if you don’t want to find something.
Three things I’d like to see in place prior to the next general election:
– the revised constituency boundary changes
– the reduction of the number of MPs
– deselection of the traitors such as Mrs May, Soubry, Thornbury, Messrs Starmer, Clarke and the rest and the Conservative party candidate selection to be decided at local constituency level, not by their Central office.
Why do the left seem to get all their way and if they don’t they riot or shout abuse at the rest of us. The far left bbc contribute to this by constantly running news articles that are clearly biased or they delibretely leave some news out if they think it shows the right perspective as actually a good thing which often it is actually.
As I was wandering the web I came across a well written article discussing how the liberal left have no tolerance for anyone who doesn’t agree with them. That is despite the left preaching to us all that we have to tolerate all the things we don’t like such as the Muslim invasion of Europe and our useless prime minister. The left and BBC are complete hypocrites. If you got a few mins it’s worth a read https://medium.com/@greenboggart/how-can-the-left-talk-of-equality-when-they-don-t-tolerate-diversity-of-opinion-18edca1285dc

Fair article but the question asked about the behaviour of The Far Left is easily answered – they believe they are on the Highest Moral Ground -all must comply . Non compliance means the person lacks morality and must be educated . There is the role of the BBC . They see that original Reithian mission statement – can’t remember the words – to still be intact .
The sad thing is that people who know better -such as those who write here – are in a minority – and the kidults don’t know any better .
I keep trying to work out where all this is going but can’t get there – is it just the new normal ?
One bit the article did get wrong was that it says the EU has only recently gone for closer union – it was there from day one lurking like a monster which has grown as the number of victim member states has grown .
Unless braver countries than ours stops it it is the US of Europe in 10 years .
They way it is going is worrying. Us on the right of centre are tolerating more and more of what we don’t like while the left are getting more and more of what they want. It won’t end well.
BBC article today shows how liberal and biased they are by keeping high on their news page about macron saying nationalism is a bad thing! Since when is it a bad thing to be proud of your country? If we weren’t nationalistic in the two wars we would all be speaking German now. Pathetic BBC
This Remembrance Sunday, hundred years after the Armistice, the great and the good gathered at the High Cathedrals of our land, sombre in mood, to the debt we all owed
“For your Tomorrow, we gave our Today”, read the vicar from the pulpit. Somberly all nodded.
Yet, if those men had realised, that they were giving their “todays” for politicians of today, to give our “tomorrows” for Sharia in Europe and Britain , they would not have bothered.
“Tomorrow” has now arrived. Lets hope the government heeds the plea of Asia Bibi and family, and grant them asylum, without caving to threats of murderous violence.
Wie lange wird es Ihrer Meinung nach dauern, bis Deutsch zur Amtssprache der EU wird, nachdem die absurde Behauptung, dass bereits Französisch ist, beseitigt wurde?
That’s easy for you to say
I hope there isn’t a C word in there 🙂
I would say the behaviour of the Far Left is the result of the deep irrational hatred held within them for which even they themselves cannot account but which in their minds is justification for the violence, vitriol and control they wish to impose on others.
General, The worrying thing is with your analysis is that these type of people who in my opinion you describe very well, are now in charge of governments throughout the world. Then they get helped by TV broadcasters promoting their same biased opinions over everyone in the population.
The left don’t ever listen to both sides and always think they are right. At least now in Europe there are some hopes of leaders who actually put their nation first. Such as in Italy and Eastern European group. The left will loose, it’s a matter of time

Sounds like a: Coup!
It is a fact of human relations that if you dont listen to others, then others wont listen to you.
So fat the left has had a clewar run in Britain, as the BBC is unchecked in lefty propaganda. But things are changing. In America, the the lefts propaganda machines are being harried by Pres Trump, with Fox helping.
In Eastern Europe, the left is shunned, as their ideology led to the Gulag and worse. In Budapest they have a permanent exhibition of the evil of the left. Rightly, it mirrors the evil of the Holocaust.
Post WWII, the left got way being examined, as all efforts were put in debunking Nazism. But Nazism parents are Marx and Marxism. Pres Trump has started the job, and that is why the left, Democrats, Labour etal, are squealing.
Rebel, of course they do and they exhibit more profligate life styles and excesses than those they condemn as elitists. And there are no better examples than the BBC luvys.
Given recent conversations here, your first sentence resonates.
(Tweet deleted for language inappropriate to the site)
The media cannot be relied on reporting on Pres Trump. Its quite likely that the Security detail, or the president’s chief of staff advised the president against the visit. It would be foolish for the president to ignore such advice. Particularly in a country such as France, where a low level civil war is in progress.
Can anyone imagine the consequences if “something” had happened. Of course the left would have been delighted , crowed all the way. But there are consequences, and the left has shown time and time again, while supporting Hitler, Stalin, Mao and even the ayatollah, and then found that the revolution eats its children. France, as in WW1 and 2, would pay dearly. Its paying anyway.
The reason President Trump didn’t attend the ceremony must have been serious because he likes to be at public events; his tireless campaigning during the mid-term elections is testimony to that. But he also knows when not to be the main story; if he had gone to the event and something bad happened it would have overwhelmed the news coverage of the memorial services. That’s the statesmanlike behaviour that President Trump shows and why he’ll be remembered by history as one of the good guys.

What is not well known is that Jihad can become legal against a nation when that nation prevents the expansion of Islam. As Western European nations have no such policy, Jihad has to be justified on the basis of self-defence.
Pres Trump though has directed that no persons from seven predominantly nations can be allowed to enter America. This means that any Muslim can attempt to murder Pres Trump, with Islamic right and justification on his side.
As France is in a state of war at the moment ( literally so), Pres Trump’s life is in danger in France. This means that his security will not allow Pres Trump to go on outings which have been made public. That is why I believe his outings make no sense whatever. They are unpredictable. Deliberately so.
What about in America. Pres Trump is safe from Jihadi attacks in America, for any such act against him would lead to the extinction of Islam in America. Any attempt on his life in Muslim nations, by the same measure, carries the risk of the annihilation of that nation. The safety of Islam and its growth comes first.
Therefore I believe Pres Trump’s life is in greatest danger when he is in non-Muslim nations outside America. Britain is a high risk country for Pres Trump.
Trump cannot expect protection in Europe. Only a couple of weeks ago the leader of an Austrian (far far far right) party was unable to speak at the Oxford Union – one of our most prestigious debating chambers – because of lack of security. France is being invaded with a predicted surrender to forces hostile to Trump. There would be no security. Trump was wise to stay away and should have announced that Macron needs to re-conquer his own capital before expecting a US Presient to attend events in his shithole.

Good points.
Now why would Macron and the EU, want an independent EU defence force capable of deterring Russia, China and the USA?
The only scenario is if France along with Germany are taken over by Islam. Then the nuclear missiles of France and the industrial power of Germany are available to the caliphate.
No way will Russia, China and the USA will allow a nuclear armed Islamic EU . Include Israel in that alliance.
Since when did the r o pers need to justify anything to “become legal”?
@GW what a thread , full of hate,
Whoa it’s a huge thread 103K likes and 21K retweets 3.7K replies
I checked the first 50
: people post photos of the C-word against Trump 4 times
: Helicopter is mentioned once
A subtweet
\\ He went to one that was closer, because as you mentioned his helicopter was grounded.
Mad how many people can’t actually do a little research //
Uugghh, Al Beeb taking the opportunity to rubbish Pr Trump again, and reprint all the offensive tweets about him missing the trip to the battle site.
Not sure I can take any more! Why couldn’t he have come up with a better explanation!
I note they have also printed only photos of him with a grumpy face.
Talk about stopping the nastiness of politics – they have just pushed it up a few notches. And all this with a background of Tucker having his house attacked, and daughter verbally abused in public. They took down Bill O’Reilly, tried with Hannity, now it’s Tucker’s turn. Not to mention Milo.
These hypocrites s, including the conservatives in the UK, have colluded in putting Europe in far greater danger then if we had lost to the Nazis. Europe is going to submit to Sharia, and the only one standing against that catastrophe is Pres Trump.
So here they are, virtue signalling of their loyalty to Western civilisation, having sold out and betrayed Western civilisation to Islam. And where were they while tens of thousands of young girls , probably the great grand daughters of fallen soldiers, were being mass gang raped in Europe and Britain for decades – no where to be seen.
At least Pres Trump is fighting for Western civilisation, unlike the traItors who virtue signal by the size of their poppies.
Have you noticed that the Left liberals are great at excusing their own behaviour and language when it suits them whilst chastising anyone that disagrees – I would say that Mr Robinson has no idea why POTUS did what he did and speaking with ignorance and swearing makes him a bigger one..

Even experienced BBC reporters are commentating on the unpredictable nature of the president’s itinerary, and putting it down to Pres Trump’s insanity – which fits in with their bias and derangement. I believe this is not Pres Trump’s doing. Besides he does not have the time to think up such things.
Its far more likely that Pres Trump’s itinerary is dictated by his security. When his security requests something, its not a request but an order that cannot be refused. The sheer unpredictability is in itself an indication that it is planned. Which means that the French and US security services have information they are not revealing.
Most will probably remember the story the BBC put out at the start of the month headlined Trump: Third of Americans see media as ‘enemy of the people’. The problem with this is Trump said no such thing.
As the article itself states near the end, what he actually said was “And that’s why thirty-three percent of the people in this country believe the fake news is in fact, and I hate to say this, in fact the enemy of the people.” [my emphasis]
I made a complaint to the BBC but, having been made aware that others who have complained have been told the headline is not misleading, expect little. What I have been surprised about is that I have not yet received the expected raspberry already delivered to others. In fact I have now been told I may not receive a reply within the normal two week limit because “it has been referred to the relevant people”. With a cheeky demand that I not contact them in the meantime.
Two questions are begged. First, what is the normal process of dealing with complaints if not initially referred to the relevant people? Referral to the department of dismissive blowbacks? I can’t answer that one. Second, what is special about my complaint that it hasn’t yet received the dismissive blowback? I can only think of one thing. Anticipating the likely default response, in my complaint I noted that one could only claim the headline not to be misleading if fake news and the media were one and the same. Perhaps they are struggling with claiming one whilst not admitting to the other.
I shall keep the site informed of progress.
Meanwhile, the Sopel snarks continue.

Although Pres Trump had to be there I bet he didn’t want to be. California is burning – just for one – and he has just had an election . And comments about “European armies “ potentially to confront Russia or america can’t have helped – nor the nonsense about Nationalism being a bad thing when mr trumps favourite line is “ America first “ and meaning it.
PS – could you imagine if there was a town in California called ‘Rome ‘ and the fire got to it. ?
But worse: the poor man has to rub shoulders with the likes of Putin, Merkel, Macron and that most repulsive of creatures Trudeau.
Can’t blame him for skipping meetings.
What Trump should have worn to the meetings:
Guess he agrees with Nick?
Equally impartially, of course.
On the whole I think the BBC has broadcast quite well today on Radio 4 about the Remembrance . Normal sneering can start tomorrow because it will be twelve of November , a date they say I must have bought a TV licence by then or they will start investigations .
Funnily enough I haven’t bought a TV licence .
I’m glad they will never put TV Licensing Man Investigates as a film , opera or mini series because it would be a more boringly predictable than their so called radio comedies .
” Man At Number 38 Has Been Receiving Computer Generated Threatograms For Eight Years , Will He Get Away With Another Four Years ? TV Licensing Investigates By Sending Another Letter .”
Does David Attenborough know how many trees are felled to produce the paper this one way correspondence requires ?
James Landale clearly thought he could mix it up a bit… bring it closer to home…
http://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.com/2018/11/ccbgb.html
Bet it still impressed the lads in the office, though.
One more thing on the beeb’s “Forgotten Muslim soldiers of World War One ‘silence’ far right”, where we hear from east London schoolgirl Daleesha Naz who learned that “400,000 Muslims fought in the British Indian army and it has made me feel closer and more connected to British history.”
Now I could be wrong, but I’d put that quote firmly in the category of “things 14 year-old girls never say without a heavy prompt from someone behind the scenes.” Sure enough, it’s been cribbed from ‘Remember Together’ — an initiative from British Future and the Royal British Legion. Tagline: “Remembrance belongs to all of us.” (In fact, this follows the remarkably similar looking 2013 campaign: “Do Mention The War”.)
British Future call themselves “an independent, non-partisan thinktank seeking to involve people in an open conversation, which addresses people’s hopes and fears about identity and integration, migration and opportunity…” Well sure, if your idea of open conversation is to exclusively feature Muslims. Wide-ranging mission statements are laughably deceptive. Their 7min showreel focuses on:
– Refugee Jubilee Street Party
– #WeAreAllEngland campaign (endorsed by the Blackburn-based Abu Hanifah Foundation)
– Poppy hijab
– AJ Faizy Week (an Afghan refugee)
– Political Engagement: Why Enoch Was Wrong
– A Very English Islam
– And… er… and lots of pro-EU messaging
I recommend watching the videos below to see what this country’s future looks like. To call it inclusive is utterly fraudulent. No other religious/ideological group features. “Independent, non-partisan and engaging in open conversations about Britain’s future” — just so long as it’s about Muslims, Islam and Muslims. And Islam.
Sounds just like the BBC.

Did the beeb happen to mention the millions of Muslims fighting against us in WW1 as part of the Ottoman Empire?
Or the genocide carried out to approximately 1.5 million Christians during and after WW1 by the very same Muslims?

Guest who, I have an idea. As we strive to keep the site relatively clean, let’s rather link to foul content (if it is really necessary) with a warning attached so people can decide for themselves whether or not to go there – and not simply plonk it on this site.
The fact that it’s copied and pasted in from another source obviously doesn’t lessen the impact of foul language on those who object to it.
That is a tremendous idea, if a bit arbitrarily located.
You mean, like the warning I attached? Obviously.
Guest Who,
Not arbitrary. I put the comment at the (then) end of the thread because I thought it might get lost as a reply to you way up where your post appeared.
A warning is obviously no good if the offending article appears in all its glory on the thread rather than as a url.
I’m indebted to Roland Deschain below for pointing out that a Twitter link will appear as is. I don’t use Twitter and have little idea of how it works.
Perhaps you can find another way to direct readers to foul-language tweets – one that is one step removed from seeing the tweets here.
I don’t enjoy this kind of editing and it distracts me from the main purpose here – to challenge and expose the BBC as it goes from bad to worse.
I chose to help with the editing when David Vance requested it and so I’m going to have to delete that tweet.
TrueToo
Im guessing there were links put in over the weekend which took people to stuff with naughty words ?
I missed them but i d rather just send them to the trash rather than put a warning on.
As you may have seen someone called ID took personal exception to my editing and warning about the use of bad words . ID has thankfully voluntarily gone elsewhere to troll some other victim.
This issue takes me away from the aims of this site which are important .
I think TT is referring to the Twitter link above which contains some fruity language. Trouble is, you can’t link to the Twitter post without it appearing in all its glory.
Which for the most part is a welcome feature, as far as I’m concerned, but can have its downside.
It’s a quoted post by a bbc luvvie. A ‘Sir’ taboot.
This is all getting a bit Voldemortist.
The way to immunise yourself from any coverage is to pepper your statement with rude words?
Crafty.
I have just cut and pasted that tweet into my facebook page to ‘enlighten’ his lefty followers.
I see that as a valid way to deal with it.
Fedup2,
This issue takes me away from the aims of this site which are important .
I just said the same thing above to Guest Who.. And yes, I did follow the interaction between you and ID. I don’t know why he had such strong resistance to a simple request to keep the site clean.
I have seen a few tweets on the site over the past week or so containing language that is likely to seriously prejudice this site – if it becomes the norm. So you are right – such posts will just have to be deleted.
Two events of the last week fill me with horror. We see the US mid terms giving a distinct up tick to the fortunes of the Dems and the British government refusing to offer asylum to a persecuted Christian woman because they are scared of the reaction of Muslim in the UK . This latter decision was met with little protest from the MSM and virtual total silence from the usual protest groups who would fill the airwaves with their demented howling if she hadn’t been a Christian.
I have followed politics in the US since the 2016 election. The MSM is extremist in its hatred of Trump and uses distortion, suppression and lying on a daily basis. It’s on a par with the BBC. Although increasing numbers of Americans distrust their own media there are still millions who are influenced by this ultra Globalist media and were conned into voting against their own best interests. The MSM is still a power in the land and if alternative sources of news continue to be shut down by the Globalist Silicon Valley they will remain so. This is perhaps the biggest threat to democracy that there has ever been because it could lead to worldwide Globalist control of the news agenda and abolition of any other sources of news.
As to our own Government , I think that their performance over this poor woman tells us exactly how far the Muslim invasion has already undermined our country. Things will only get worse and rapidly so as their numbers grow. We are so far down the road to an Islamic Britain that there is no longer any prospect of avoiding this awful calamity . I am genuinely sad for young people , particularly girls, who will see the world closing in on them . These youngsters may in part the authors of their own misfortune , but they have been conned into this by an unholy alliance of cynical Global capitalists and the dangerous Intenational leftists.
Toady watch
Bit of good news – a chief remainer snowflake – Justin greening ( should be Green Party ) sounding really sad coz the chequers sell out sees no chance of being rubber stamped
Meanwhile the bbc leads with a splash about disagreements of chequers at chequers. Well I remember comments like that at the time so can’t see why it’s news now .
Full UK brexit looking more likely now . So that nasty little Irish PM can start planning to send his Army to the border when order to do so by the Reich EU . Maybe it’s their turn to fight republican terrorists this time .
If May realises her game is up and resigns all well and good.
But she might decide to try to get an extension to Article 50 and then seek a second referendum. She is stupid enough to try it.
It’s OK, they can fall back on ‘research’.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-46146877?
‘Nationalism a driving force behind fake news in India, research shows’.
Amazingly this ‘research’ complements President Macron’s little speech to perfection.
The bbc morning propaganda sheet also tries to push it.
****
What drives fake news?
Fake news is a much-discussed subject, but what ecourages its spread? The BBC’s carried out research in India, which suggests a rise in nationalism is causing people to disseminate it using their mobile phones. Also as part of our Beyond Fake News series, we look at what constitutes fake news and how you can spot it.
***
Ah…. ‘bbc research…. and beyond!’
Easy to spot,
GW
Yes, the BBC has its own fake news section. Or so it would have have us believe. Investigating itself, or not.
BBC VERSION
“What is fake news and how can you identify it?”
“This is part of a series by the BBC on disinformation and fake news – a global problem challenging the way we share information and perceive the world around us.”
“To see more stories and learn more about the series visit http://www.bbc.co.uk/fakenews”
“Why you can trust BBC News”
MY VERSION
Those addicted to 24/7/365 fake news should visit bbc.co.uk.
To read BBC Leninist propaganda masquerading as real journalism.
To learn why you cannot trust BBC News.
Nice comfortable cosy BBC TV platform handed to Remainer and social liberal tax & spend Conservative-in-name-only Justine Greening this morning for her to play the Second Referendum Remainer three card trick on the audience. The rules of which seem to be win, lose or draw, the UK stays in – much to the relief of the Brussels budget setters and the German tax payer!
This is looking an awful lot like a coordinated establishment rear guard campaign to keep us in.
Bbc language bias
Militant commander killed by Israeli soldiers

Which one do you think the bbc used ?
On the BBC News website front page is a link for
‘Can I forgive him? – How I discovered my husband’s sex obsession’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/stories-46150298
Nicely illustrated with Marvel comic type cartoon illustrations showing a Muslim married couple where the husband is cheating with a stripper. The Muslim wife is seen crying in most of the pictures.
What colour skin does this evil marriage wrecking stripper have? Yep, she is white.
Seems to have stirred the girls in the cubicle gardens. Even some of the wimmin.. A ‘top story’ on the morning email.
****
‘How I discovered my husband’s sex obsession’
I was ashamed of what had happened. I wondered what people would think when I told them, what they’d think of my husband, what they’d think of me. I assumed people would judge our marriage and think it was a sham. I also felt people would think I hadn’t been good enough for him, not pretty enough, not sexy enough.

No pix, so I hope I am in the clear. Hugh Grant cheated divinely on his girlfriend who was not unattractive. Maybe the issue goes deeper? Certainly around Rotherham.
Tabs, did you also note the logo on front of the computer? To avoid advertising, they put a strawberry logo. Would have been easier to leave it blank.
For a textbook illustration of MSM Trump Derangement Syndrome you couldn’t do much better this morning than Nick Ferrari on LBC.
He was harping on about Trump’s non-appearance at the US war cemetery. Many callers pointed out that the decision on flying a military helicopter wouldn’t be the President’s. Ferrari just carried on as if they hadn’t said a thing. It didn’t fit into his world therefore didn’t exist.
It’s actually becoming worrying how the media as a pack will grab on to a narrative and not let go even in the face of reality.
There used to be different voices in the media. Now there is just a hive mind. Which large swathes of the population simply do not trust.
The MSM has leapt on this as the issue that finally gets Don.
And the heck with fact checking.
Shame the mid terms were last week.
And the sleeping dragon that is the silent majority have brains and access to the internet.
This may yet backfire. Again.
When you listen to remoaners banging on with their anti Brexit catchphrases (like, “nobody knew what they were voting for”) do you think their newspeak could be used in everyday language.
When they leave home in the morning to go do work do they ‘Crash out’ (of their front door)
If they decide to change Banks (EU) from one they’ve been with for the last 40 years, (getting 0.1% interest) and go to look at the many other banks offering much better rates (WTO) do they ‘Go over the cliff’ or maybe ‘Crash out over a cliff’
They are a pathetic lot really.
Earlier comments are wondering why us Leavers are not making much noise and letting the remoaners have everything their way.
I’m reminded of the Kipling poem Beginnings which I’ve seen here before. It’s the one with the line ‘When the English begin to hate’
I think that’s where we are heading.
May, the remainer, with her remainer Cabinet in a remainer government supported by the remainer media and lots of rich landowners are getting all their own way at this moment where the EU gets everything it asks for, Banks it, then comes back for more which May willingly gives away.
Whether it’s Fish, single market, customs union, CAP, ECJ, immigration and everything else, May has given them everything, plus £39 billion and continuing to pay yearly payments for a crap (sorry Fedup) deal which nobody is happy with except May and Oily.
It can only be a matter of time before ‘we begin to hate’
EG,
“…we begin…”? Many do already, including me. I think often about the secondary use of lampposts – lots of them!
I don’t feel any hate. I would simply like to see May and her Remainer cabinet go, as they are failures. Very dishonest failures. That is a dispassionate assessment made in the head, not the heart.
There is no need for a General election: Labour didn’t have a General election when they decided Blair needed replacing with Brown. They would simply sell us out with even more duplicity and we would probably end up with full membership of the EU, minus the right to vote or decide on anything. The Conservative Party needs to elect a new leader, who then elects a new cabinet.
If all that means no ‘deal’, that’s fine with me too.
We have a Brexit mess because dishonest, double-dealing politicians have been playing a dangerous game of deception– against their own country.
I suspect the ‘negotiations’ were theater all along; the louder the proclamations that Brexit was Brexit, and would be implemented, the more we knew they were lying.
I would have preferred UKIP to be dealing with the negotiations, as the only genuine leavers. Since that-alas-is not possible, the Conservative Party need to sort themselves out, and quickly.
The basis for this has to be the departure of May. That is the only thing I would say, is NOT up for negotiation.
Is it just me who is sick of the BBC fawning over Michelle Obama and her book. She is famous for what exactly? – oh she was married to the president and used it as platform for her own publicity – and why do we care they used IVF..it’s not news and it’s not interesting.
Yep Woman’s Hour just now
…. and then some apostate said
“Shes’s performing at the Albert Hall in December, surely that will be too expensive for normal working class black women to come ? “
Performing..doesn’t that imply a talent for something? Oh I guess flagrant self promotion is a talent…
Friday 11am Radio 4 : How To Be A Muslim Woman
presented by Baroness “never elected” Warsi
(BBC screech “see we did let a Conservatives on air, so dn’t say we are lefty-biased”)
We hear a lot about : black women, Muslim women as special categories,
seems they get proportionately vastly more time than other categories
eg. Christian women, countryside women, Welsh women etc.
We are now seeing in Florida’s State Governor Election what will happen in future elections.
A leftist responsible for overseeing the voting process has ‘discovered’ 1000’s of ‘uncounted’ ballots days after the election of republican Rick Scott, and are now in the position of almost a week since the voting finished, yet no clear result.
This is why there must never be a second EU referendum or Scottish referendum.
The result will be fixed from the start.
There won’t be another No/Brexit/Trump.
I’m sure I don’t need to mention how the BBC views this situation.
At least in the USA there is a leader who calls it out instead of bending over and taking it.
No wonder he gets such abuse from the left. They haven’t had to deal with that before, such is the supine nature of our leaders.
On Radio 4 Toady, a feature about the knife killings in Londonistan.
Weirdly, the only mention of ethnicity was the featured victim’s mother – a Romanian.
So, obviously there is no black-on-black gang component to the killings, and the Police reluctance to carry out stop-and-search, fearing cries of ‘waycism’ can carry on.
The BBC. The world’s biggest whitewash producer.

I always admired the way Trevor Phillips “ saw the light” after being , imho, just another race relations industry swamp dweller looking for ££ and. Gong .
A lot of the kids being stabbed are not saints – but for a system to allow non state killings when is doesn’t allow state executions has to be a bit – well – unhappy .
If there are any reasonably intelligent people left in the UK, I wonder what they think about this and whether it willbe repeated in an islamic dominated UK?
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/13282/egypt-christians-bloodbath
Needs our World Trusted National far left Marxist State Broadcaster to focus their bias on the demise of Christians in muslim dominated countries. Oh! what’s that you say: by not broadcasting knowledge of these regular events they actually condone the murders. I see………
Do you think Trump’s trick is to push the libmob to reveal their true nature
: that they are hatey people, willing to cheat to get their way ?
Stew – a 70s hippy songster called Neil Young lost one of his homes in the California fire …. and guess who he blames …. priceless .
He’s not even American; he’s Canadian. No doubt he’s a Trudeau supporter.
Rotherham has spent more
: paying compensation to victims of their incompetence
or : on solicitors defending itself ?
Yorkshire Post frontpage story
says Police/Council spent £2m on solicitors vs £700K paid to victims.
The last figure comes from the lawyers cos Police/Council denied FOI request saying victims would be in danger if GENERAL compensation amounts were released

but does carry this
Wakefield : \\Potential child sex abuse victims are being interviewed by police in “cold” and “blank” rooms, it’s been claimed.
Wakefield councillor Kathy Scott said she was “shocked” by the conditions in which youngsters are questioned about crimes allegedly committed against them, after a visit to a police station. //

O/T a NatWest customer, got sucked into the “transfer your cash to our safe account scam” , and lost £40K
He quickly phoned NatWest but always was 2 hours on hold.
Then the staff accidentally emailed him their own private conversation about how they deliberately hinder customers trying to get their money back.
…. Now they’ve given him the £40K back
…Why don’t they employ 24/7 cyber security staff in the first place ?
…
the next item Solar panel scam
The biz ESE Consultants sends pensioners calls/mailshots about a safety check for solar panels.
The prog set up a sting, first their own expert checked all was OK.
ESE turned up and their engineer Ash with a distinctive Indian voice said “oh I can hear a noise that’s a sound of danger.”
He suggested that the panels be rewired in parallel with a monitoring system ..cost £6K
When this pensioner didn’t bite he suggested a special add on which would boost the output by 60% cost £2,300
(fake of course, there is no such magic)
…The biz said “Oh we don’t have a guy of that name, he must be an impersonator”
Am I the only one who thinks Macron looks like a miserable bar- steward?
I couldn’t continue listening to his speech after his denigration of nationalism. Did he bother to thank the British, Americans & Canadians for saving his country? Twice. Perhaps you would have to be a French ‘Nationalist’ to appreciate the effort eh?
I’ve said this before but again- Can we PLEASE get Pr. Trump to sort out Brexit for us?
Superb from the Donald … LOVE IT. Await the liberal left meltdown for telling it as it is AGAIN. How can you argue with that. Oh, give it 5, Jon “Impartiality itself” Sopel will.
Wall to wall Al BBC coverage of 2 arrests for men linked to national action. What a pity the same impetus of reporting isn’t given to the hundreds of ISIS members walking around., and the thousands

Lady Brooke interviewing Damilola Taylor’s dad on al beeb . A good and fair man talking of uncontrolled untouchable kids and the need for the police to challenge . Lady Brooke clearly uncomfortable taking on Mr Taylor so tried a ‘neural ‘ approach .
Then the usual discussion about stop and search powers which goes nowhere as usual .
I was thinking what the result would be if the 100 plus young people had been the children of PMs and not black kids from the inner city . Particularly with all those empty words after one of their own got killed .
News about Comey’s own Gmail use whilst investigating Hillary for same offence.
New York Post Nov 9
EXCLUSIVE: Ex-FBI Director James Comey used his private Gmail account hundreds of times to conduct government business
You have to laugh: bbc tv 1.00 pm news is going on about ‘beyond’ fake news. The home of narratives, in which ‘facts’ are constantly selected to fit in with a given tale, is trying to educate us!
Twas the naughty Russians again, saying something nasty about Georgia. But where is the evidence?
Are we going to find Sopel suddenly giving us evidence, instead of his own opinion? Is May going to give us ‘evidence’ that she is -indeed- implementing Brexit. Will the bbc ask her for any? Oh yes, they’re going to try to undermine her because they’re pro-Labour.
But that will merely be to make way for bigger deception.
Here is the tweet in inevitable complement.
Research via my lying eyes suggests that it #CCBGB …. and beyond!
@Guest
It reminds me of Rowan Atkinson’s line in Blackadder Goes Forth……
“a fate WORSE than a fate worse than death!, pretty bad…..”…….I always crack up when I hear that……
FNW,
Assuming the contributors here are in the Autumn of their lives (even perhaps like me, the ‘Winter’), spotting ‘Fake News’ is easy. Our guts simply tell us that something doesn’t ring true. Invariably we are right. Certainly when the principle relates to our far left Marxsist State Broadcaster.
Vines long item on his LUNCH time is about people having boils ..on their bottom etc.
appropriate ? Not
Their website leads with the terrifying news that three – a veritable army – have been convicted of membership of a Nazi group. The Fourth Reich is clearly imminent. One named their son after Adolf Hitler. We can’t be dealing with an especially sophisticated bunch.
“Let’s bring back Nazism! I’m calling my son Adolf!”
“Fantastsic idea! Nobody will have any idea what we’re up to.”
Beware any milk drinkers – that is a clear ‘dog whistle.’ Those old men playing bowls are clearly plotting world domination. And the next time you are invited back for a quiet cup of tea with a parishioner, beware: he is probably plotting another Holocaust.
Are they not embarrassed to lead with this? These days mass child rape and deadly Islamic attacks are buried as soon as possible but this is their main story? It is like reporting on a child grazing their knee instead of the atomic bombs dropped on Japan.
Which should we worry about?
One kid named Adolf?
Millions named Mohammad?
“Prosecutors said the East Midlands chapter of the group “shed one skin for another” and “rebranded” after being banned.”
so it would appear they have been prosecuted for being former members
Couldn’t help but notice BBC TV news getting rather excited about the prosecution of a couple of eccentrics who apparently belonged to some “neo-nazi” group. Our Simon McCoy relates the shocking news that the couple gave their child the middle name “Adolf”. Guilty as charged, obviously.
For some reason I then couldn’t help recalling a scene from that old BBC comedy series The Young Ones. You know, where Alexei Sayle’s character says:
“My name is Alexei Yuri Gagarin Siege of Stalingrad Glorious Five Year Plan Sputnik Tractor Moscow Dynamo Back Four Balowski. Me Dad was a bit of a Communist, know what I mean? ”
I’m pretty sure the BBC was happy for that to be broadcast as a joke.
And in the Bottom series, wasn’t Adrian Edmondson’s character’s name Eddie Hitler?
I am pretty sure Ade was Eddie Hitler in “Filthy, Rich and Catflap”
Cheers

Is it permissible to use the name Mohamid, who was a pedophile and a warlord.
True Too – in the spirit of polite exchange I respond here, as in addition to a few other points you have made (possibly inadvertently), replying to someone elsewhere can be confusing to them and others. Anyone seeking to find out what I am now talking about needs to backtrack until they find what you wrote.
I referenced a piece by a BBC luvvie evidently proud of the ‘cut through to da yoof’ of a potty mouth. It is unnecessary and reflects badly upon them. However, ‘sticks and stones’, etc. That the BBC seems cool with those they pay doing this, is between them, their employee and those who uniquely fund it all.
Equally anyone on this site resorting to crudity can weather what comes their way, in terms of the opinion of others or, censure by the site owner(s) and designated editor(s).
Life is seldom black and white, so much is in shades of grey. Hence ‘grey’ areas, and ‘conventions’ rather than hard and fast rules. If Jeremy Corbyn wants to stand at the Cenotaph in a mankini he is free to do so. In the buff, likely less so. Equally the use of bad language. If the state broadcaster tolerates it everywhere, it is hard to see how a private online site can be held accountable, though of course establishment hypocrisy is now the rule (ironically) vs. exception.
I recall a while ago several senior BBC editors appeared to have problems with the name of the (then) health secretary though, oddly, not that of a Labour colleague in the House across the dispatch box. It was discussed and rightly mocked here, and the word was used. A lot. However I coined the term to describe it I use to this day: NaughtieMarr; especially when another BBC employee falls victim to the same temporary, selective outbreak of Tourettes.
I sympathise with your ideals, but regret to say that on any forum discussing news and politics, staying chaste in pointing out rampant abuses in word and deed is frankly impossible. Sometimes to judge the offence, the jury needs to be presented with the evidence.
Now FE2 has excised what I shared, who now beyond early posters has a clue what is going on, and what Tony Robinson felt comfortable posting in public forum?
I do not condone using customarily accepted obscenities as part of everyday communication, even if conveying extreme frustration, but getting Victorian on actual substantiated examples is a chaste move too far, especially when inviting thoughts and debate on the topics the BBC too often inspires.
With this in mind, with all due warning to not look further (if you have, you have sought offence first and I can help no further), I attach a recent tweet from Tucker Carlson, about the latest in events taking place from certain quarters in the USA that the BBC either seeks to avoid, if not ignore or condone. I think it needs seeing, and sharing.
If because of it this post here is removed, so be it. But it will be a pity, and perhaps send a worse message to those who seek to capitalise on flawed systems poorly overseen by those they wish to silence. Ironically.
And the recent flouncer will have the satisfaction of knowing theirs was a job well done.
GC the offending C-word is within an image so is not picked up by blacklisting programs
..and it’s a quote anyway.
This is a worthwhile discussion – up to a point! but i think that it is enough now. The site should be about BBC bias.
Lynette / stew – following my attempt to keep this site reasonably clean I’ve been watching closer than I wanted to as well as using my own time .
Some people just need to challenge authority – even if it’s a volunteer editor like me . There have been 2 posts in the last 24 hours which have included the c word . I tried to edit them but knew that they couldn’t be and considered taking the whole post into the trash can . So far I haven’t but the use of such words has to be controlled .
I don’t want to battle it every day but I will .
Fedup2,
I agree totally. I’m considering posting above the line on this language issue to try to resolve it once and for all.
8pm R4 The Lack of Political Diversity at British universities by Matthew Flinders
He’s at the top of pyramid himself surely ?
I’d tell you ow; I Frank Gardener the famous BBC TV correspondent wouldn’t accept that way of travel overseas!
Quite like the new Range Rover though.
Sheffield Mayor, role model ?
White poppy is politics hijacking someone elses event.
They should have their own events.
One of the downsides of us leaving the EU is that unless UKIP start winning seats in the HoC, we will be losing the services of good UKIP men and women MEPs. And the dross that currently occupies the benches in that den of iniquity will still be there.
I thought white was a racist colour.
9am Radio 4 STW was pushing the narrative that “Far-right” groups had conned normal people into marching in a Nationalist march.
The prog called them neo-Nazis
AFAIK the march was a government organized one, which the opposition boycotted
“Nazism (or neo-nazism) and its symbols are illegal in Poland”
Plus US and Australia?
Are any of our ‘politicians’ asking about this yet?
(Thanks to others on here for drawing attention to this).
theisland,
All those rejecting the Pact may well be escaping, but, the good news is that the 250 million odd ‘migrants’ that the UN identify as seeking a new homeland will now raise the number each remaining country has to take………………….
I have written to my MP asking if she could obtain information from the Government and her Labour leadership as to what the Pact will mean for the UK and how much extra it will cost the taxpayer to fulfil the obligations Treezer has already signed up to.
10pm BBC 2 , alleged comedy
Well the trailer isn’t funny
And 10:30pm BBC Four have the boxes by choosing this documentary
Tumbleweed in the MSM as Australian PM rejects idea that the Somali immigrant attacker in Melbourne last week “had mental health issues and was not ‘really a terrorist’ and should be treated with some sympathy.” Also “community leaders should accept the attack was due in part to ‘extreme Islam’ that had radicalised Shire Ali.”
Anything on the BBC? Sky? CNN? NYT? Nope.
The Guardian though does chip in, albeit in its time-honoured tradition that comes from living in the Upside Down… “Terrorism experts admonish PM for ‘racist and simplistic’ claim that community leaders need to be more proactive in combating terrorism.”
https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2018/nov/12/bourke-street-attack-morrison-accused-of-scapegoating-muslim-community
“But he said Muslims had been ‘dragged into mud once again’ by politicians.”
It seems useless to strive against this topsy-turvy language.
Banania, it’s painful I agree but channel your inner Hitchens! (or other straight shooter of choice).
Even by the Guardian’s standards that is a terrible article. The ‘terrorism expert’ Greg Barns they quote seems to be a legal specialist in apologetics and diversion. So many straw men in one short piece, I lost count
BBC REALITY …
David Lammy
Profile
Tottenham MP David Lammy has been leading the parliamentary charge for the Windrush generation as they fight for their residency rights. Mark Coles charts the life and career of one of parliament’s most formidable campaigners.
Born in North London to Guyanese parents, Lammy grew up in Tottenham but moved to Peterborough aged 11 after winning a council scholarship to the city’s cathedral boarding school. He went on to study law in London and at Harvard. Then, after a brief spell as a barrister, he became MP for his home borough of Tottenham at the age of just 27. His political career soon took off, with Tony Blair making him a minister in the New Labour government and Lammy was quickly hailed as ‘the Black Blair’ or ‘Britain’s Obama’. But not everything went smoothly for the junior minister.
Since Labour went into opposition, Lammy has spent his time on the back benches. There, he’s found his political voice and passion as a defender of those he feels have been failed by the system – from the Grenfell fire victims, to working-class young people struggling to get into top universities, and now the Windrush immigrants. Alastair Campbell calls him “a good old-fashioned class warrior, in the best possible sense”.
Mark Coles meets some of the people who know Lammy best – from childhood friends, former teachers and his beloved ‘Aunty May’ who firmly believes that, one day, her godson will be Britain’s first black Prime Minister.

Reference G’s post above at 3.41
Was being driven in the Eastern Cape some months ago in order to visit a Game Reserve.
On the way back to our accommodation, we passed a township with a grotty gravel road leading up to it.
‘That is my community’ said our friendly driver.
‘ you’d think, after 25 years, that the ANC could give you a bit of Tarmac’ we said.
I don’t know whether the penny dropped but I think there was a pregnant pause. This little vignette re-inforced my view that the ANC need to keep the poor blacks poor, yet persuade them that the blame lies with the old white community.
Here and there, among aspirational blacks, the deceit is recognised. But it’s a slow process.
German Green Party chief speaks up about immigration problems
‘oh yes its a problem but we can get them to disperse to the countryside, not the cities’
I hear some backpedaling “Oh what he meant was…”
Fat chance. These immigrants don’t DO countryside – they seek urban localities. That’s why I like living where, and as I do, in France Profonde.
