As the Brexit nonsense continues it will be a very good time to see how the Far Left BBC will roll on Project Fear . I think they’ll have to be careful because people are getting even more annoyed .
Oh yeah – and a mini budget Wednesday

It seems that clever brexiteers are talking to friendly European governments about vetoing the request from UK for an A50extension. Thus getting us out on 29 March ….what a way to go .
Fedup2
I hope that you are right. But It comes to something that we, the people of Great Britain have to go foreign to undermine our undemocratic, ‘so called’ Parliament.
If we get out of the EU on a ‘No deal’, I promise to eat my Welsh Leek, raw.
taffman, I have tried raw leek (origin unknown) and it is decidedly scrummy if a good one. It was. So it was probably Welsh or from Lancashire. 🙂
I must admit its nice with a bit of Caerphilly cheese. Overpowering to eat the whole leek on its own.
Parliament has to be cleaned just as Christ cleansed the temple……..
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleansing_of_the_Temple
taffman, “Overpowering to eat the whole leek on its own.” agree and probably none too good for the bladder or the bowels!
Had bad childhood choking experiences with leeks which put me off them until into adult life.
Now I quite like sniffing them … that first cut through a nice crisp one ….. mmm… the aroma. Will try your cheese recommendation. Now there’s a potential soup combo, perhaps? Bachelors do a very tolerable Leek & Potato cup-a-soup. Wonder if extra cheesy croutons could be added?
Gerard Batten spoke, today I think, in the European parliament and asked them to do precisely that.
Mr Batten goes about things coolly and calmly, without the bluster and showmanship of Mr Farage and for that reason he’s more effective.
A No Deal Brexit will rapidly result in one thing: a frightened EU under pressure from its member states will come rushing back to the negotiating table with a quiver full of concessions.
This is the latest report from Jeff Taylor on YouTube. It’s about 9 minutes long.
He makes some good points but apparently the EU have a trick up their sleeve that hasn’t yet been mentioned as far as I know:
I’m sure I have read or heard somewhere that in the past, when negotiations have reached their time limit, the EU negotiators Stop The Clock. Literally they pretend that time has stood still so can continue negotiating, or bullying or whatever they need more time for, I suppose.
Anyway, I wonder if they’ve considered using it for Brexit?
Of course, I continue to believe we will be leaving the EU on time on 29th. March at 11pm. On WTO terms and paying the EU nothing.
Sheffield the verdict is due in the case of the African guy who was thrown off his social work course
..on grounds of his Facebook page
Judges have just heard the case ..might be a few days before judgement.
What is your favourite example of news that was never followed up ?
Mine was about 3 years ago when eco-protesters blocked a Northumbrian opencast coal mine for a day, the company lost a dys work so got a court order.
I think 9 of the 10 protesters were found guilty and instead of getting custodial sentences were ordered to pay compensation.
Now 1 who was head of the cycling charity now CTC pleaded not guilty , co was given a trial date ,
..which was then pushed back ..and then just disappeared
..and he continues to this date ..when he almost ceratinly woud have been found guilty.
================
Another thing is those Gatwick drones
AFAIK ..there still no proper video evidence has emerged.

I don’t know but I’m comforted by the continuation of life threatening stabbings in my home Londonistan borough – lunchtime today a -17 year old stabbed at Leytonistan tube station .
If he went to the local hospital – whips X – he’s probably dead by now ….
Wasn’t very far from where the 14 year old moped drug dealer met his maker …
As the PM kept on saying during PMQs … thoughts and prayers – like a bloody insincere parrot
Stew, Nikolai Glushkov.
The Beeb did have an article this week (first anniversary of his death – similar date to the attack on the Skripals) but it was more about his daughter who is a rather attractive lady, that Glushkova is.

The BBC story has more context
\\ Asked why he did not take it further, Lord Steel, who was elected Liberal Party leader in 1976,
said he “saw no reason to go back to something that happened during his time in Rochdale” and the events happened “before he was even a member of the Liberal Party or an MP”.
“I don’t think we went into detail on individual bits of the story,” Lord Steel told the inquiry.
“He just accepted that the story was correct, and obviously I disapproved, but it was, as far as I was concerned, past history. That was the end of it.”
Inquiry counsel Brian Altman QC later asked: “So you came away from that meeting, Lord Steel, not really knowing if he’d committed these offences at all?”
The peer replied: “Well, I assumed he had because he said that the account was correct. Why would he have been investigated if he hadn’t done something that was possibly wrong?”//

And what’s new ?
AFAIK the 2014 report said the P Eye story about Smith turning up at the hostel & telling boys to drop their trouser for a medical examinations was true
And that senior figures had conspired to cover up those historic reports .. As if they regarded the events as deep in the past, not actual rape , and they needed Smith.
It was pretty much assumed that the senior Libs knew.
The only new thing today is that David Steel admitted he had been lying about it all along
Page from 2014 report
MPs have voted to take ‘no deal ‘ off the table by 4 votes ….. so the criminal labour MP had a valuable vote …. traitors …
im surprised only 312 did it some obviously think this ploy isnt subtle enough even for their thicko voters
‘They did not know what they were voting for.’
Let’s have another vote and another..
Let’s have a ‘peoples vote’,.. oh wait a minute, they were politicians who they really knew what we, the people, actually voted for!
Shameful.
On the second vote brexiters lost again . So we re at the stage of ignoring the democratic outcome of the Referendum .
So the sell out has gone , no deal has almost gone , an article 50 extension application is in the offing ( for no logical reason ) – all because MPs cannot accept the vote of the electorate and don’t want us to leave .
I vote no-no-no Deal… 🙂
Forget Brexit. A true tragedy of news importance unfolds…
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-trending-47538191?
I’m lighting candles and praying as we speak.
This injustice must stop.
#black hair dressers matter#
312 pigs with their snouts in the trough,
312 traitors,
The vote was clear, we knew what we were voting for. Deliver it.
The House of Commons vote to block a no deal Brexit was won by 50.3% of the vote.
It’s too close to call
The voters were lied to and didn’t understand the consquences of what they were voting for.
They were all elderly and shouldn’t be allowed to ruin the future for everyone else
There needs to be a second vote to clarify the situation.
DISGUSTING SCUMBAGS !!!! The whole bloody lot of em !! The unelected Barnier and junker taking the piss out of Great Britain !!!! Imagine President Trump allowing the USA to be held hostage like this !!!!! Pathetic. Truly pathetic.
up here in the forgotten wastelands of cloth capped whippet fanciers even all us uneducated nothern monkies know that deliberately entering a fight with your hands tied behind your back Is going to get your face rearranged.
No body but no body can argue that this stance is in Britains best interests, even Remainers know that there will be a cost for Britain if “WE” change our minds and remain in the EUSSR and they are willing for US to pay it.
“The voters were lied to and didn’t understand the consequences of what they were voting for.”
If for whatever reason we are still eligible to vote in the next eu elections the consequences will likely be interesting to say the least. And not just from this country, I’m anticipating some very shady ballot counts indeed.
Remember the 14 year old on a stolen moped ?

StewGreen,
I clicked on your link and now I know why it’s a moral maze. I was taken straight to ‘Wimmins Hour’ where I endured a few minutes of irrelevant junk before realizing I would have to try to find my way out of it.
BBC please note. All the voting today was posturing from MPs who think they call the shots.
They don’t call the shots.
The Law states that we will leave on the 29th March. Their votes change nothing.
There’s a possibility of an extension for some reason or other. But this has to be agreed by ALL member states of the EU. Many states won’t agree to it.
We leave on the 29th. That’s what was voted for.
any extension will come at a heavy £cost
oily robbins will already have agreed it
Absolutely right. Any votes today on ‘no deal’ cannot block ‘no deal’. While Article 50 (which is part of EU law) is in force, there are only two options: deal or no deal. And since the deal was not ratified, ‘no deal’ becomes the default option. The only thing that can stop us leaving the EU is to revoke Article 50, and I really can’t see May and the ‘Conservative’ government doing that. It would be committing electoral suicide. They would never be forgiven by millions of Leave voters, and would almost certainly lose the next election.
And you’re also right about an extension of Article 50: unanimous agreement of all 27 member states. If just one EU country vetoes the extension then, that’s it, no extension.
Don’t fool yourself, this is the prelude for them to revoke article 50 because they have just passed an act that we cannot leave without a deal.
The EU courts have no decided that a country can unilaterally revoke article 50 without needing approval from any member countries.
The EU has told us that they will not renegotiate anything, the only option Parliament now has is to stop Brexit in its tracks.
Which was the plan all along.
MPs haven’t passed an Act today. Their votes are only advisory.
I am sick to death of this whole cretinous crew of parliamentarians who have put their own interests above those of the people. They could have salvaged some respect this evening but, once again, they failed to step up to the mark. What a ridiculous spectacle they have made of our democracy. The rest of the world must be shaking their heads in disbelief.
im sure they are actually all preparing britain some really bad costly deals knowing our Mp’s wont say no
Watching the Parliament channel ( sad ) the SNP lead for ever going on about ‘constitutional crisis ‘ . It’s amazing how the truth is contorted – the crisis is that of MPs who think their view is more important than the voters who put them there …
… do kind of wonder what will happen if the EU vetos an Article 50 extension application a week before we leave ….with my read being that we’d be heading for the door …. and out despite all the knashing of teeth and hot air from out of touch self interested MPs
A Chinese fiend of mine talking about the Trump- Kim talks said that in the East you do not try to humiliate the other side as that is fatal to a successful negotiation. Look carefully at how Trump negotiated and you see what he meant . You can rage a bit and even insult and walk out but never humiliate as that ends any possibility of a result. Now the EU has humiliated this country quite deliberately aided and helped by our own side. Mrs May is a weak leader but the EU have sought to humiliate her and by implication us.
There is never for a generation going to be any prospect of decent friendly relations with Eu countries now . A state of cold war is more likely . Not like the real Cold war but more a polite and not so polite parting of the ways. it was never necessary.
The BBC will no doubt be drinking champagne on us at the prospect of no no deal. Traitors the lot of them.
“You are no more capable of conducting the affairs of this nation than you are of running a brothel.”
“But there is one point which he [Oliver Cromwell] saw very clearly, and in regard to which his notions were true, . . . the prosperity and power of a nation are based essentially on its morality and on its faith. He understood more distinctly perhaps than any other ruler, that no country can exist and flourish unless it have within itself some principle of life.
“He had, indeed, other passions not less noble than that of religious liberty. The greatness, prosperity, and glory of England was a no less potent necessity in him, and he worthily acted up to it. He said one day in council: ‘I hope to make the name of an Englishman as great as ever that of a Roman has been.’ And in effect he so augmented the general resources and maritime power of the nation, that he procured for it a more extensive European celebrity and influence than it had ever possessed under any of its kings.
“But the Protector knew that ‘righteousness exalteth a nation’, and it was by this means he desired to elevate his own. God himself spoke to this people.”
J H Merle d’Aubigne, “The Protector”, p 205
Did anyone ever expect that MPs would allow Brexit to happen? About 500 of them have always been against it.
We’re leaving –
At least Canute knew that he didn’t control the tide.
Do these numpties really believe that they get to decide if the EU offers a new deal or extends Article 50?
Why not vote for sunshine everyday or the reform of Islam?

I tend to agree with you there. I think we need to be careful not to be like the little bullock that, while grazing in the field with his massive dad , the farmer opened up the gate at the bottom of the field and shooed in a herd of cows at which the bullock turned excitedly to his dad and said “Hey dad, why don’t we race down there and hump one of those cows”? Dad gave his son a disapproving look and replied “Just hold on a minute boy. We’ll WALK down there and hump the lot of ’em”!
The fat lady is still not singing.
On TWatO the Beeb played a clip of an angry Verhofstadt addressing the EU and saying we did not know what we wanted.
The PM and others have been telling the EU what the UK wants for over two years but the EU has not listened.
GV and his cronies should listen to the Isabel Hardman programme about The Age of Denial that followed TWatO today. They might just learn something about themselves.
But then again ….
Their was lots of panic in the eu parliament today and farage batten and janice atkinson really triggered them. Verhofstat was like a lunatic but the worst was timmermans who sounded like a demented remainiac at the end.
Lots of cheers in parliament tonight when the vote happened but that didnt last long as the bile and bitterness came back as they realise that the march 29 date is still law.
Prorogue Parliament.

‘Yeh why are we wasting money investigating historic child abuse”

#2 You signal to old/new perps that you don’t give up on pursuing investigations

Could we just get the EU to kick us out ?
… If we started a capaign of civil disobedience against it ?
Say by starting off one day a week
.. I dunno like blockading EU flight or boats etc.
I’m not sure they’d want us back. Sure, they want our money, but May’s Bad Deal achieved that. But they don’t want the UK sitting sullenly, holding back the project, making waves and constantly threatening to leave.
The relationship is beyond any repair, I think.
I think Theresa wants to delay Brexit so as to ask Mr Junker for an “Apron Strings Deal” dependent on Britain paying £100 Billion for 21 months of membership, but to be contingent upon no British participation in the European Elections, but instead, the British MEP‘s to be appointed by Theresa from the House of Lords. The Prime Minister will be happy to be subordinate, subservient, deferential and servile to European Union Authority, due to great feelings of inadequacy and incompetence and an inability to resign due to Oily Robins ordering her not too.
Could the BBC explain to Britain why it is so necessary for us to stay in the EU?
So where are we?
Referenda have no value
Manifestos promises are of no value
Cabinet government is broken
Ministers disobey their PM
Whipping on party lines doesn’t work
A biased commons speaker
MPs ignoring their constituents
MPs willing to work for a foreign power
And just to add to this nonsense the British State is about to prosecute soldiers for doing their job in 1972.
And a freedom fighting citizen TR being crushed by the British State .

“So where are we?”
May I add one more to your list?
ALL of the political elite in the UK are inveterate liars and more so that hitherto thought by the voters.

Maybe this should form the basis of future ballot form choices?
“oh, hi boss. You know I handed in my notice a while back and you said fair enough because I was a bit of a pain in the backside?”
“Yes. What about it?”
“Well, I have had a chat with my mates about it and I’ve decided to stay for a bit longer while I work out if you’re worth being in my team”
Let’s look at the positives of the Brexit saga.
1. Millions more people have over the past two years realised how biased and untrustworthy the BBC really is. This can be exploited to bring down the BBC via a LF strike.
2. Millions who believed that FPTP was good as it gave us strong governments now realise that if their wishes are to be followed by Parliament we need new parties and PR.
3. Millions realise that unless we actively vote for restricted or no immigration parties we will keep on taking in loads of third worlders because currently both Remain and Leave MPs are in favour of it.
If used wisely these facts can bring about a complete realignment of British politics over the next decades. In other words and to borrow a phrase from the. Marxist playbook , the political consciousness of millions of ordinary folks has been awakened.

Take a look at the comments. As the Democrats daily lurch toward madness, the stakes will be ramped up.
G,
As someone posted there is nothing about this on CNN and I expect precious little about it elsewhere on the MSM. The anti Trump brigade control what most Americans know about their politics. Their viewing figures are dropping and their trust ratings are at rock bottom but they remain very powerful. Couple that with the growing censorship of the net by a Google, Facebook et al and the left controls what is news and what isn’t. Even if there are many prosecutions of the failed coup conspirators, as there should be, and even if Clinton is found guilty , the MSM will manage to persuade enough ordinary Americans that its really not that bad, or that Trump has set them up , or that the Russians were behind it, anything no matter how outlandish to minimise the impactand political fallout. I’m sure the revelations and the hoped for prosecutions of the conspirators will be a factor in 2020 but it may not be as decisive as we might expect it to be for the above reasons.
It’s the same all over the West . In order to save ourselves from the Globalist plan we need to break the stranglehold that Globalists have over the means of communication, which of course they are busy strengthening every day.

BBC then returns to Costello, who will also be riding in the IOM sidecar event with Julie Canepa.

“There is still work to do if more young girls and women are to break into the sport, but Costello’s fire is still burning to inspire the next generation both on and off the race track.”
There certainly is “still work to do”
“was” Costello, was the fastest woman at the the IOM, but Jenny Tinmouth, who went 5mph faster, is not mentioned.

Establishing a list of EU countries that are themselves uncomfortable with the Club Brussels Politburo rule and punish leadership would give an insight as to this continent’s growing worry.
Form a club that gives an appearance to its members of the chance to compete in global markets as a confederation. Discover that the club is run by self-serving, snouts in trough, control freaks who, like various cults, will not let members leave. Any attempts to do so are ruthlessly punished both by the club’s ruling praesidium and those turncoats within the member country that are in its pay and part of the vested interest scheme. It is a reminder why confederacy doesn’t work when it comes to nationhood.

A message to those anti democrats in the den of expense claimers.
Rudyard Kipling.
Beginnings.
It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late
With long arrears to make good,
When the English began to hate.
They were not easily moved,
They were icy-willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the English began to hate.
Their voices were even and low,
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show,
When the English began to hate.
It was not preached to the crowd,
It was not taught by the State.
No man spoke it aloud,
When the English began to hate.
It was not suddenly bred,
It will not swiftly abate,
Through the chill years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the English began to hate.
EG,
So true. The anger and resentment at those who consider themselves our betters continues to grow and foments feelings of rejection of the status quo and marginalisation. Rebellion feels real as ordinary folk say, enough.
We have had 30-40 years of socialism inveigling insidiously into the fabric of our society, particularly in education. This has fed into the pond from which many of our political groups, civil service and, yes, MSM draw their constituent players. Their world view is similar and it is Fabianist in nature and intent and is grounded, or has been, in the softly softly mission creep so often favoured by the left. The EU collective is the trans European culmination and ultimate representation of their societal idyll that they have worked so long and so hard to achieve.
And then came the voice of the people – and Brexit.
It is not difficult to see why many of our political class and media representatives (and a significant number of the UK population) are taking this so personally and clearly dislike intensely their fellow Britons for daring to bring the EU juggernaut and their dreams of a EU wide socialist utopia to a shuddering halt.
I cannot see the remedy to our increasingly angry discourse being found within the confines of government as they are enmired in the corruption of personal inclination over duty and, if there is no electoral recourse, then we are left with only the one option.
Mr Kipling in this, speaks for us all.
Indeed. But if this all falls through and a travesty of democracy is committed, we’ll be the ones disenfranchised and they will crow sickeningly.
I find myself thinking of Tennyson’s The Charge of the Light Brigade. Someone had led us into the valley of death.

More scandals emerging from Canada and Trudeaus dodgy dealing and yet again there are few if any reports about it on any media let alone the BBC.
Remember that Trudeau is accused of exactly the same crime as Donald Trump was so it makes an excellent comparator to prove the leftist bias of the BBC and other media. The USA might be a more important country, but Canada is a Commonwealth country headed by the Queen.
Just because one of the lefts poster boys is in trouble does not mean an impartial news source can look the other way.
If Liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. That is exactly what the Government is doing-Procrastination all the way.
Every single voter in this nation should be contacting their MP to demand that if they want to keep their jobs and have any consideration for their constituents, Vote for a NO DEAL – all knots of the apron strings untied, a future without supression, or subjugation to a communist directed state. We have in many ways been suffocated by the EU, and directed as they desire by our duplicitous media headed by the BBC. What to do with them (BBC)is a nother matter for another day.
As someone who grew up on tales of Great Britain from Alfred to Concorde this Brexit debacle in all it’s pathetic, defeatist simpering has really appalled me.
Those who gave all to build and preserve this country and those who simply believed in this nation must be looking down with some sadness.
