Weekend Open Thread 8 December 2018

The petition to request a parliamentary examination/debate of the poisonous UN migrants treaty had exceeded the required 100000 to get noticed. Silence on the subject is deafening from the Far Left BBC as well as the politicians who are meant to be representing – us .

For those expressing their now limited freedom of expression by marching this weekend good luck . The BBC is peddling the ‘no brexit’ option as the chosen outcome of current parliamentary nonsense . This writer want ‘no deal’ – they can sort out any mess afterwards because they will simply  have to.

    Someone comments on Britain’s growing food bank industry
    \\ If I were to set up a free money bank, giving a weekly £25 handout to anyone who stopped by with a pleading letter from the local citizens advice bureau or church, I wouldn’t be surprised if lots of people showed up.
    I could probably expand this into a network of free money banks if I had sufficient funds, and report impressive statistics of increasing demand.
    However, this would prove nothing at all about levels of poverty in the country. //
    Someone else claims that many are fronts for crims and money lenders.

    If only we had the long standing tradition of the French at making politicians do what they want by taking to the streets en masse. If we were known for this then and had done something like the gilets jaunes have over recent weeks , then the EU would be desperate to get rid of us in case other chose to copy us. The moral of the story seems to be that being quiet, obeying the law etc gets you nowhere. On the other hand…..

    Pug, I heard that interview too. Robinson didn’t miss any chances to state that the QC was a longstanding eurosceptic. By default, R4 only has proEU guests but rarely introduces the guest as a remainer.
    Also noticed that when Howe’s articulate response to the first question effectively demolished Robinson’s loaded backstop assertions, Robinson then announced that he was short of time and changed the subject to the attempted ERM “gotcha” which only served to make Robinson look foolish a second time.

    Well, I heard the most interesting interview with Martin Thelle today. Martin has worked for the European Commission advising about the economic impact of trade deals, and is a partner of Copenhagen Economics.
    He was talking about the current worries of the negative effects on Ireland if a true Brexit were to happen. He stated that in Feb 18 he had done a breakdown of various scenarios of Brexit for Ireland and in his opinion the May deal had been seen to have the best outcome for Ireland. Having stated that he quickly said that it was only based on assumptions. However it was clear to me that this deal has been evolving for a long time more than they would like us to believe.

    firstly Gay Male couples who have women (100 Women!!?) give birth for them.One of the men is so overwhelmed he cries seeing the new born child?Strangely that isn’t his child..in the meantime what does the mother do?…she is giving away a child to two gay men?……

    Is there something wrong with ME?..or is there something wrong with them?or is it not a problem at all?…Am I just getting wound up about nothing?.Men cannot have babies.Women have babies in a traditional CHRISTIAN family unit?That is what I beleive and holds our society together………is this something that turns people on at the BBC?…or is it of interest to us all as TV Licence Fee/Tax payers?Personally I dont agree with Elton John adopting children.I think it is disgusting but please disagree with me and tell me why……..

    Secondly….again…weird people in the USA who are doing digital implants under their skin in order to create stimulation in order to replace real stimulation?…so men can get super orgasms by having implants behind their penises etc…..creepy creepy stuff which the BBC seem to be really into…it pervades a lot of their coverage currently…an ‘alternative’ way of living……….
    this is just Aldous Huxley stuff in 2018 by our National Broadcaster as if its perfectly cool and trendy…it isnt…its very creepy almost in a Jimmy Saville esque way……

    who makes the rules?…anything goes?….we can all have sex with anyone for any reason and reproduce babies for any reason?.whats next…group marriages with men women and transsexuals all interbreeding and adopting children they havent produced themselves?..all in the name of Liberalism (which has come from the European Union)…DISGUSTING. Someone tell me I am wrong…..please explain………..

      It’s all the drive to achieve amorality . After ‘ duty’ was replaced by ‘ rights’ and ‘ honour ‘ replaced by ‘blame someone else’ the next step was amorality .

      The gender changing movement is not quite the final step – that is – Animals . People should be allow to marry their pets if they love them more than people . Just wait for it . After tranies it’s the ‘ beastiality movement ‘ – “ the Human and Animal Rights Act 2020 awaits …,

      And after all – the BBC had already made ‘ animal magic’

          Children are only recently out of bounds PIE – in the 70s had quite a sympathetic reception from the BBC and defended the NCCL – legal rep – Hattie Harman .

          It’s clear from the behaviour and lack of reporting of Asian paedophile gangs that there is a degree of ambivalence in the BBC about having relations with under 16 year olds .

          Otherwise the BBC would have been screaming about this from the rooftops for past decades . But the BBC hasn’t has it ?

          And banishes the monthly set of Asian mugshots and convictions within hours .

          Perhaps the BBC still harbours paedophiles like their favourite son – mr Saville ?
          Certainly sodomites are welcomed and the practice encouraged by the many BBC stars who are loud and proud about their personal preferences … all about ‘ love’ innit ?

          A number of countries permit marriage with animals. However sex with animals is a rather tricky matter. Gradually it is being made illegal in the US but the following states still allow it; Hawaii, Kentucky, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, Vermont, West Virginia and Wyoming, the District of Columbia as well as Ohio.

          It is illegal in most European countries but mainly on grounds of welfare rather than morality, which means that men are more likely to be prosecuted if you know what I mean. Especially as chickens are a favourite sexual partner.

          In the UK is it illegal, but again on welfare grounds so it is perfectly legal to have sex with dead animals. So you have a chance to say goodbye to Fido before cremation.

          However, The Criminal justice and immigration act, 2008 explicitly forbids distributing electronic images of sex with dead animals, so you can’t do a You Tube or FB vid for your friends to enjoy.

              Every word spot on. I have supervised postgrad research on sex with animals have taught courses in animal welfare, assisted with the passing of the Animal Welfare Act 2006, done several animal welfare reports, and have a say in animal welfare in zoos.

              No one mucks about with my Siberian Tigers.

              In fairness to the US, where animal welfare is legislated on a stete basis, it is said that it was not prohibited because people did not believe it was going on. I believe legislation is underway.

          I know that one of the main criticisms of Thatcherism is that giving people freedom of choice would be balanced by their duty to support society failed because human nature doesn’t work like that but I think things come around one way or another .

          The BBC thinks it was evolved beyond what Lord Reith laid down as its ‘ mission ‘ . Now it is about social change to comply with its senior managers political beliefs – helped by an agnostic political class which refused to rein it in for fear of negative treatment .

        Campbell was picked up on a statement he made on R4 t’other day about the ‘Peoples Referendunm’ (2nd one) and the fact that 1m have died since then. Unfortunately, she inserted the word ‘codger’ in her response and Campbell immediately claimed that SHE was the liar and he’d never mentioned dead Leave voters. The implication of what AC said was quite clear, however, to listeners. He then talked all over her (think it was brave Alison Pearson), the Brexiteer, to the end of the segment.

So 24 hours for a “agenda” story and 8 hours for Muslim rape gang story…….no bias there at all.

      8 Dec 2018 17:57

      Gotta hand it to the way the BBC thinks that if it pretends something is newsworthy very very hard then it will be newsworthy. Why don’t you just stop with the social engineering BBC?

      9 Dec 2018 07.20
      The measure is what I find baffling. Women demand their game is treated the same and fair enough. So in footballing terms my view is the womens game lies somewhere shy of U-15s youth football in terms of quality and somewhere between Step 3 and Step 4 mens football in terms of attendance and so the question remains by what measure do the BBC warrant this attention and why is it ‘sexist’ to ask?

      9 Dec 2018 03.20
      It is not misogynistic to express a negative view about women’s football and if women put themselves into this particular sporting arena they and followers of it must expect and accept that. Providing there is no direct abuse everyone is entitled to express a view and the misogynistic card cannot be trotted out just because you don’t agree with a critical opinion being expressed.”

      EG, did you see that a new ‘forecast’ (with assumptions’ – the new economic In-word) has come from the BoE about inflation that sees a strengthening trend, next year, for inflation to rise to 3.2%. (Notwithstanding the previous inflation forecast of it falling next year ….)

      No doubt Remainer Hammond, with his Remainer assistant Carney, could [ note the ‘bus’ word 😉 could ] ‘help’ that inflation along a bit with some indirect taxes and an interest rate cut.

      The Panto season looms large over the UK ……..

      Another reason for not watching Marr any more. His show has degraded into a pro EU voice box. I used to like watching it.

      Sync, hopefully the population at large will start to pick up on this continual battering of Brexit and it will stiffen their resolve and should – heaven forfend – there be another Referendum on the EU, they will demand to leave completely and entirely.

    Plenty enough hymns to sing as I continue Fedup2’s Advent theme and strangely many have echoes that relate to the UK leaving the EU.

    James Montgomery’s one of 1821 has hints and phrases in its first two verses that might be aligned to Brexit:

    1. Hail to the Lord’s Anointed,
    Great David’s greater Son!
    Hail, in the time appointed,
    His reign on earth begun!
    He comes to break oppression,
    To set the captive free,
    To take away transgression,
    And rule in equity.

    2. He comes with succor speedy
    To those who suffer wrong;
    To help the poor and needy
    And bid the weak be strong;
    To give them songs for sighing,
    Their darkness turn to light,
    Whose souls, condemned and dying,
    Were precious in His sight.

    According to the R4 News at 8am (I managed to miss the 7am version and the Sunday Programme – bliss) the PM, Theresa May, is putting the frighteners on her Party: “He’s behind you!”

    If I recall correctly that the Labour Manifesto HAS to be agreed by the NEC (national executive committee, not the well-known Exhibition Centre – oh! hang on,.. … wait a minute …..) then our Panto PM is trying to play a clever game.

    What will Corbyn be able to put in the Labour Manifesto?

    I will lead the UK out and away entirely from the EU?
    or
    I will lead the UK out and away from the EU but will keep it tied to the EU in a Customs Arrangement (similar to the PM’s deal but completely different) that will protect British jobs and businesses?
    or
    I will let the Party decide in a democratic vote what to do and after that, Parliament will have a Final Say on keeping the UK – for all intents and purposes – in the EU and paying for it?

    I don’t think it will work and that the PM’s deal will be voted down for all sorts of reasonsby a variety of MPs. I certainly hope so. Keep that vote scheduled for Tuesday, PM, and give us all a Christmas present.

      A rant follows

      The bbc is reporting that the new health secretary is banning the use of fax machines in the NHS . Apparently there are over 9000 of them . For the youngsters reading this you’ll need to wiki what fax machine is .

      Why does the NHS still use fax machines ?

      I have first hand knowledge . It’s because they run out of paper . If they run out of paper -work can be avoided – unless someone replaces the paper of course .
      Fax machines are also a great way to avoid accountability , lose the fax , came out unreadable and every other Friday afternoon trick to avoid work .
      An email gives a timed audit trail and accountability -even when deleted . I think health professionals hate them .

      I member of my family suffered unnecessarily because the district nurse in NE Londonistan only use fax machines – which often break down .

      I was forced to take a fax order from a GP to the district nurse office by hand to get them to do their job . Best health service in the world right? According to the BBC – the best broadcaster in the world right?

      Ps apologies – I found a non brexit moan !

    The MSM, understandably, aren’t particularly interested in a jolly, sociable Sunday afternoon walkabout. It won’t achieve anything – it rarely does.

    In France, over three or four weekends, we have made the anger felt, and are achieving results. The foot was in the door three weeks ago – it is steadily being prised open, and we are winning concessions, the interest of the world, and the support of Trump amongst others, and some are emulating our efforts in solidarity.

    If people are angry, they need to show it. How else can they expect anyone to take notice of their desires?

    Meanwhile the Former UK lurches, in a somewhat desultory manner, from crisis to crisis.

    About the March.

    If the turnout is very low they will show it and point out the low turnout.
    It’s quite a large turnout so that will not apply.

    If antifa, hate not soap or any other of the government favoured gangs show up, cause trouble and then somebody retaliates or tries to defend themselves or their friends, they will edit to the Brexiteer responding and label it as trouble at Brexit March implying that it’s being caused by brexiteers.

    If there’s a very large turnout and pictures go around the world they might have to show something as in the case of the Cologne railway station mass groping (and more) but after maybe a fleeting few frames will disappear (like a remoaner when it’s his round)

    On Facebook there are intermittent bits appearing from the March but they keep freezing and disappearing.
    It’s as if someone doesn’t want this to be seen.

    I don’t know the turnout, it seems reasonable but I don’t know when the pictures were taken.
    Anyone got a reliable estimate of the number marching?

      The independent – which apparently is a newspaper – estimated the turn out as 1/200 th of the remain march last week – 3000 brave souls .

      Most of the websites aiming to show it appear disrupted -which should not be surprising in the repressive state that Britain has become – unless you conform to liberal snowflake views of course .

      Saw a bit of Boris on the bbc – he’s had his hair cut and dropped the buffoon nonsense to try to sound like a PM . But if he gets us to a full brexit all is forgiven .

    4pm update. Sky TV leads it’s news with the pro Brexit march.
    The BBC news at the top of the hour, it’s headlines, does not even mention it, but does manage to use some archive film of Boris in front of the Brexit bus (the red one they didn’t like) and then gives one of its political correspondents a good five minutes to sneer yet again at the Brexit process.
    So, you see, the self fulfilling prophecies of the Beeboids in their little bubble far outweigh what the people are doing out on the streets.
    Oh, and there’s also time to jump all over a story about a football fan shouting abuse at a footballer. Followed by more women’s football coverage.
    Now, it’s 4.30pm and finally the BBC gives a ten second mention to the Brexit march and what it calls a “counter march” involving “anti fascists”, followed sharply by a report from a rally in favour of a second referendum……now they can claim balance, impartiality etc etc but we know this is just the usual BBC tokenism and the ten second slot will soon disappear.

      The implicit inference that ‘ anti fascist’ marchers are good because they are marching against ‘ fascists’ gives the BBCs bias away really .

      The BBC is effectively saying the brexiters are fascists . But then – define fascist -a term used as loosely as ‘ populist’ and ‘ Far Right’ .
