100% agree Melanie-have always realised the feudal attitude of the EU it was written into their beginings that there was to be no Nations, no borders all under one state, one surpeme government, a dictatorship, controlled by supression over the peoples and to be fed lies as often as was necessary to keep the money flowing to them-Now the game is up and was up as soon as Britain voted LEAVE-those that control the EU know it hasn’t long to go before it crumbles under the weight of resistance from those very people it wished to subdue. Other nations will eventually have referendums that will likely call for leaving the EU-the income to the EU will dry up and that will be the end as we know it now. There could of course be a smaller styled Union made of some Continental countries but at what cost to those countries.

Autism ‘more likely near busy roads’
Chris Smyth, Health Editor
quotes within article from 2 experts
#1 James Cusack, of the British research charity Autistica, said:
“This study does not provide evidence that air pollution causes autism.”
#2 Rosa Hoekstra of King’s College London said:
“We can’t tell from this study whether it is the air pollutant or something else that actually causes any increase in autism risk”
“the increase in risk was only very slight:
– around 1% of children had an autism diagnosis.
– The odds of autism in children prenatally exposed to higher levels of nitric oxide was still only 1.07%”
Anyways Shut up and just believe

We have allowed them such freedoms that never would their own people have endorsed in their nations of origin.

Incredible? It seems that, after the signing of the ‘Migrant Compact’ in Morocco in December, the UN have lined up a further little agreement, in the form of a ‘Refugee Compact’. Apparently, this one is going to be all about ‘resettlement’.

“More than 3,000 people have signed a petition asking a West Yorkshire council to stop “unstunned halal meat” being served in schools. In October, a Freedom of Information request by the National Secular Society found Kirklees Council supplied the meat to 40 schools”.
why is the council still not releasing which schools? … should be in the public domain as a matter of course
BBC News
Lancashire council leader accused of halal meat ‘crusade’. Councillors in Lancashire are to vote on whether to stop supplying unstunned halal meat for school dinners.
“Council leader Geoff Driver said he believed it was “abhorrent” and “really, really cruel” to slaughter animals without stunning them first”.

Is it just ‘my’ browser? Just lately every time I click on a sidebar comment on this website the focus jumps to that comment, (as expected), then immediately darts of somewhere else, perhaps half-a-dozen coments further away.
If I repeat the process everything works OK.
I suspect that the browser is jumping back to the last position in an earlier viewing session, some sort of cache issue, that I have never had in the past. [Browser is Firefox 63.03 (64-bit)]
Addendum:
This is weird. I left this site and then returned and followed a sidebar link to page 2 of comments. Focus went to that comment then jumped away six comments. Then I clicked on a page 3 comment and the focus went there and then immediately jumped up six comments! I first noticed this behaviour when I wanted to link to someone else’s comment and it misbehaved so I didn’t do it in the end so as to avoid confusion.

Really excellent musicians of all ethnicities talking about the piece, but a black woman presenter who obviously knew nothing about music but was very good at nodding enthusiastically.
I didn’t use language I wouldn’t use in front of my mother, and wasn’t rude about the presenter but highlighted her lack of music qualifications. But my post disappeared. Did someone report it as offensive? Would I have been told if it had been deliberately deleted? Where did it go? So many questions. The internet ether must be getting full, I fear.

As regards “Project Fear”. Due to genuine fears of the incompetence of the Government and Civil Service, the Queen’s advisers could suggest that Britain be ruled by one of her other Realms, until Theresa May felt that she could cope with full independence for Britain.
Her Majesty the Queen of Australia’s High Commission could rule England,
Her Majesty the Queen of Canada’s High Commission could rule Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, Her Majesty the Queen of New Zealand’s High Commission could rule all the UK overseas territories, Her Majesty the Queen of Jamaica’s High Commission could rule London and Oily Robins could be sent to Canada for training on how to negotiate free trade agreements.
I think a transition period with training under Royal Commonwealth rule would be preferable to an 80 year transition period without any training under European Union rule.

(8) The House of Lords is the future.
(9) Young people will always love the establishment.

Something I’ve not heard on the bbbc is the way interviewees are challenged when they talk nonsense or make up statistics.
JHB has just been interviewing someone (sorry didn’t catch his name) about immigrants sending money home.
Apparently the top 3 places where the money goes are Nigeria, India and Pakistan.
The interviewee claimed that there are lots of studies by “academics” that prove that immigrants are making a huge contribution but that the indigenous population are a net drain on the country. JHB challenges with the fact that an 80 year old in a nursing home is unlikely to be a contributor whereas immigrants are generally younger and working age so it was not comparing like for like.
The guy then went on to claim that oh well the rest of us send lots of money abroad too “when we go on holiday or buy a foreign made car”!
JHB again challenged him and asserted that this is not the same thing. She pointed out that’s immigrants are generally on lower wages therefore not paying much in tax or national insurance but then sending most of the money home.
She highlighted the fact that they are, therefore, not contributing as much as we are led to believe.

Here’s a fine way to start the day – tune into the BBC and be treated to the strained, strangled, trans-atlantic tones of foreign correspondent Lyse Doucet.
She is one of so many BBC star talking heads who, in the guise of interpreting events, in fact editorialise and pontificate like crazy all the same stale regulation anti-west liberal elite talking points. In her summary of the Yemen conflict, rather than address the international power politics, she leans heavily toward the style of charity appeal broadcast. Oh the humanity, think of the children!
Of course she tells us enough so we know “we are arming” the Saudi/ Arab coalition. Isn’t western policy also attempting to keep the vital Red Sea and Gulf trade routes free of Iranian domination which could spark wider regional conflict, then recession and suffering for europeans? No. As usual every Yemeni is portrayed as a helpless victim. Nothing about their culture, religion, tribalism, lack of such western values as the rule of law or respect for the individual could ever be to balme for their on-going civil wars. Such is the BBC-approved cultural relativism.
Suddenly our Lyse does begin to talk about power politics – but simply to bash Trump for his alliance or understanding with the Saudis. What would she have him do? Side with Iran, pay them a huge cash prize and allow them to build a nuke – like Obama did? Or does she suggest the west invade both Saudi and Iran – to bring democracy – as worked so well for the neo cons in Iraq & Afghanistan?
I think her ambitions are on a smaller scale. Guilt trip us into an Xmas BBC appeal for cash and more refugee acceptance here in the UK.

Snowflakes worship these characters and ,no doubt , out compassion each other in response .
But for me deal with our own problems and charity should stay at home . As we are constantly being told by the BBC we are no longer an empire – so we should stop stupidly getting involved with international problems unless there is a direct benefit to Blighty . Yemen is not such a place .

We often hear the description of, “unelected unaccountable politicians and bureaucrats” in relation to the EU. But, withdraw, “unelected” and the description would now apply to Treason May. Why? Well the covert nature of her arrangement to flood the country with more, “migrants” under the UN Migration Pact for the Globalists, for that will be the outcome. And Treason May’s ‘give-away’ of our Armed Services to Europe – also for the Globalists – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irT8FKclUoc Equally done with stealth. Both, no doubt, hoping the public wouldn’t notice. Dishonest, that’s what Treason May is. What gets me is the totally blatant unaccountable acts to undermine this country. What’s that you say?

Good letter in the Telegraph copied and pasted here.
“Whatever position one adopts on Brexit, several important changes to the way this country is governed have emerged from Theresa May’s tenure.
a) Manifesto commitments are now meaningless. Who will ever trust the Conservative Party manifesto again?
b) Cabinet government has been abandoned. Mrs May has set a precedent for privately and publicly manoeuvring behind the backs of ministers.
c) The Civil Service has become politicised. The unelected Civil Service may one day regret colluding with the Prime Minister to circumvent and humiliate elected ministers.
d) Lying to the people has become overtly acceptable. We now know that, whatever a prime minister says, it is probably untrue.
e) It’s all right for a prime minister to humiliate the country he or she leads.
Irrespective of the outcome of the current political chaos, I fear we may all rue the day we vested our trust in this very bad Prime Minister”.

Talk Radio just had a long item about how a hate preacher Zakir Naik is allowed to have a channel on SkyTV called PeaceTV
(Mike Graham seems to read every tweet he gets)
– The station has been sanctioned by Ofcom 6 times
– PeaceTV’s boss fled India/Bangladesh and is banned from entering the UK
– How come Sky can ban Fox News but allows this guy ?
\\ Regarding Peace TV. Are “votes” the reason for the double standard & lack of Government/establishment action in banning? Very few Labour, Tory and Lib dem votes in right wing extremism but lots of votes within religious ideology extremists. //
HJS report
\\Evidence, provided through case studies, suggests that this second form of abuse poses a serious challenge to future regulation, particularly where islamist extremism is concerned. channels such as Peace Tv and Huda Tv, for example, almost ubiquitously host well-known extremist speakers, while others, such as the islam channel and Eman channel, raise money for extremist-linked charities. Even without airing extreme content, these channels reap the benefits of credibility and fundraising, magnifying their visibility and voice.
• one such channel is Peace Tv, that has had continuous extremist involvement and is inextricably connected to hate preacher Zakir Naik, who was banned from entering the UK in 2010 by the Home Secretary on account of his extremist views. //

\\ I remember submitting proofs to Ofcom and Metropolitan Police on Facebook and Twitter that his tv channel was inciting Muslims to eliminate the politicians who oppose their message.
I was aghast that the complaint went unanswered and it surprises me the extent to which danger of being accused of Islamophobia has crippled our agencies to the extent that they’d rather have people killed than investigate beforehand.
How can a terrorist preacher banned in his own country have a license to run tv channel in U.K.?
I come from India and I think it is my duty to weed out such elements that spoil the name of my country and are a disgrace to humanity.//

Daniel Hannan: Staying in customs union puts UK in ‘worse situation than before’

https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/end-the-bbc-licence-fee
Please take a look and sign if you already havent.
here is what the organizer, Caroline said today:
It’s been another fantastic week for the Anti TV licence campaign with 8,000 signatures gathered last week (12 -19 Nov). We are now very close to 300,000 but we won’t reach it without another massive push like we’ve just seen 2 weeks in a row because the rate of new signatures has now stalled. For this momentum to last longer word of mouth is the key.
What ever the reason that made you sign this petition (and there are several), you signed it not because you’ve heard of it on the telly/radio/in the papers but because someone you know talked about it or wrote about it on social media. Now it’s your turn to talk about this petition with your mates, partner and family.
The fact that this petition keeps growing is one hell of a thorn in the BBC’s backside. They have tried time after time to convince the public that a flat tax enforced with heavy bullying and criminal threats is the best way to fund a national broadcaster. Tell them it’s not. Not when 70% of the people prosecuted are women. Not when people are jailed for 2 weeks for being too poor to afford TV. Not when other broadcasters (some with a less tarnished reputation some might add) would happily provide a similar service for free.
Tell them this funding system is past its sell-by date. Make sure you CC your friends!
Thanks,
Caroline

Staggering to see that the bbc uses £2.5 million of licence fee payers’ money simply to advertise that the licence fee must be payed. Some lucky PR ad agency with links to someone within…well, couldn’t possibly say, really.
This is the broadcaster that loves to ramble on about food banks, poverty etc while ripping off the poor with an equivalent of the poll tax.
Fat salaries for their big boys. Make MPs and ministers look underpaid. Maybe even some bigwheel bankers?
Political bias non-stop. Merely one example: Do they hate Trump? Oh yes, with a passion. Endlessly.
Give us some hope, not hate.
End the BBC Poll Tax.

Not not really scandalous
They are entitled to spend money on advertising if they think it leads to extra people buying licences..that covers the cost.

A British chap has been sentenced to life in prison in bongo bongo land -in this case the UAE for alleged spying .
Is there any BBC coverage of this ? Any campaigning beeboid?
Now the UAE invests lots of money in Blighty and desperately tries to improve its primative image but of course reverts to type when it comes to locking up westerners .
A place definitely not on the visit list.

his crimes are as yet unspecified and evidence entirely absent.
I’d rather like to be regaled by the evidence – my guess is he said the wrong thing in front of somebody who had the power to lock him up – it’s that sort of place (I know)

it is rather odd that details of Mr. Hedges crimes are not laid out – I do wonder if this is a feature of how the Abu Dhabi courts system works or something else.
I find it difficult to imagine much that an independent traveler like Hedges could achieve in Abu Dhabi beyond what a low grade diplomat (with immunity) could do.
What comes to mind is that Hedges has had some connection to Qatar – and that might well land him in deep water as relations between the two are “hot” .
In all … it needs repeating …. quite odd.

Perhaps we should have a separate thread for BBC anti-Trump comments?
Here’s one. It’s a BBC Online News video:
“”Cindy McCain: I’ll never get over Trump’s war hero slur on husband””
“”We’ve lost the ideas of debate””
“”McCaine was the conscience of the country””

This ‘interview’ was conducted by a fawning 20 something BBC woman with the obligatory croaky voice.
Nothing challenged, but a continual smiley nodding-dog approach from the interviewer.

DS,
“This ‘interview’ was conducted by a fawning 20 something BBC woman with the obligatory croaky voice.”
Is this the ‘gravelly’ tone toward the end of some words at the end of a sentence/statement? I’ve been tracking that gravelly addition when women are interviewed for some while. I conclude it is partly a confidence thing.
I confess to having an academic interest. I had always associated it with Maggie Thatcher who developed a deep low manly voice by extraneous training apparently. She developed it before the full manly voice was achieved. I guess that it is currently added to develop the recipients reception as being from a honest broker carrying some sort of knowledge or authority. Whichever, it can be dropped at the flick of a tonsil when talking to other women and/or those who do not need to be impressed.

It’s so funny how two different female BAME Labour MPs are having trouble with the law: one up for contempt of court, another with a son caught selling drugs. Meanwhile Khan and the Lesbian running the Met are overseeing record levels of crime, especially murder. And of course these grooming gangs/racist paedophile rapists continue to run amok.
Will they ever rethink the whole diversity is strength nonsense? How overwhelming does the evidence have to be? Cathy Newman sent a sneering Tweet about Rees Mogg and his co-plotters being stale and male but he would never be in contempt of court in a trillion years, yet alone let his child go on a crime spree.

I believe the term used is ‘whitewashing’ when media producers cast a caucasian actor in the role of some other ethnicity… anyway the BBC are at it again with their library pictures as the 1pm tv news covers knife crime where a large majority of both victims and perpetrators are from the BAME communities.
We shouldn’t be surprised at this continued and consistent BBC in-house policy of whitewashing crime. Dominic Casciani in the role of BBC home affairs correspondent whitewashed the identity of his own mugger a couple of years ago. Whilst his BBC report named the young criminal but illustrated his text with pasty looking library pics, local newspaper articles did picture the perp and did not bother to lie by subtle omission.
Meanwhile I hear our local press is under serious threat from BBC competition.

DON’T SAY DON’T IN CAPITAL LETTERS
It’s not appeared on the BBC yet but it is one of the things the BBC endorse.
Journalism professors at Leeds Trinity University in the UK have been instructed not to use certain words — in case they frighten sensitive students.
According to UK media reports, the use of capital letters has been banned as well as the “overuse” of the words “do” and “don’t”.
In an internal staff memo obtained by the Express, staff are told students’ “anxiety” can lead to academic failure.
“Despite our best attempts to explain assessment tasks, any lack of clarity can generate anxiety and even discourage students from attempting the assessment at all,” it reads.
“Generally, avoid using capital letters for emphasis and the overuse of ‘do’, and, especially, ‘DON’T’.

As Interpol recently discovered, considering letting the Russian fox in to run the chicken coop would be predictably disastrous. Ah, but this is MM, ‘Mad Merkel’ so it is only to be expected. I’ll bet MI6 will enjoy liaising with him over, ‘security’ issues ‘taqiyya’ and all. One things for sure the one way information link to Erdogan will get busy.

The Swiss are not signing the UN ‘Migrant Compact’ either, for the time being.
They join the US, Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia,Israel, Poland, Hungary, Czech Republic – all of whom are NOT signing, in Morocco, next month.
The ‘Neue Zuericher Zeitung’ commented that this sort of thing is what happens ‘when beaurocrats dream’, pointing out one proposal that seeks to punish countries for ‘intolerance’ towards ‘migration’.
What is the UK doing? Why are the media quiet? Not to mention the total silence surrounding the subsequent ‘Refugee Compact’, providing for migrant ‘resettlement’ – sponsored by Pakistan in the UN?
We are not mad about the EU. Behind it looms the even more unattractive UN.
Are we crossing a road, worried about being hit by a car, not seeing the 40 ton truck speeding up behind it?

Someone tried to raise this on Nick Ferrari’s LBC programme yesterday. The caller was dismissed with, “Won’t happen, no need to talk about it”, and that was that.
Ferrari is becoming a bit of an arse, to be honest. Maybe he always was, and I overlooked it because at least it wasn’t Radio 4.

The BBC on R4’s TWatO were very optimistic today that either Parliament would vote through the EU Deal that the PM is pushing or Parliament would vote for another Referendum on EU Membership.
Yes, I have typed that correctly. Another Referendum on membership. Not the PM’s deal or no deal before and after 29 March 2019. But membership. Back to the future. A re-run of 2016.
I thought there was a reason why they wheeled out Dr Sarah Wollaston yesterday on TODAY pushing for a second Referendum. She and the BBC are both in denial about the result of the Referendum. Leave won, we are leaving. Had Remain won, we would be remaining in the EU.
The BBC were today trying to explain that the current EU deal would be voted through by Parliament. What they did not ask or seek to explain is what it would take to buy off enthusiastic Brexiteers among Labour Party MPs (apparently Jeremy Corbyn is now having a bit of a wobble about calling for Labour to vote the Chequers Deal down), enthusiastic Conservative Brexiteers, anti-everything SNP MPs and the DUP in Northern Ireland.
How will the PM threaten or bribe all those groups?
The BBC asking no questions, suggesting nothing …
….. except constantly trying to underme Brexit.
