    Nearly three years on, still in the EU, and Al Beeb’s Tellygoons are still sending me begging letters.

      taffman, two choices for you:
      – Ignore them, or
      – File two Cease and Desist notices with them under the Protection from Harassment Act 1997. If they then harass you one more time you can put the matter in the hands of the Police and get a lawyer to threaten a lawsuit.

        I think it will be a miracle if we ever get out of the EU, on 12 April or 22 May.

        The PM’s existing deal doesn’t get the UK out and away. It remains to be seen how ‘tweaked’ it is now before a vote next week. Hopefully it will fail and 12 April will be ‘Out Day’. It is entirely in God’s hands.

      Dam well should be. It is has been quite obvious that, with the Far Left BBC’s forever scaremongering over what a disaster a NO BREXIT DEAL would be, from all I have read and observed, business in most cases will continue as usual, no one will fall of the edge; of what I have never quite understood, irrespective we shall all go about our daily lives with calm. As to those that presently sit in the Parliament of Westminster, well its anyone’s guess-can’t get them out as they certainly deserve (especially the remainers) to be unless through a General Election and quite frankly don’t think the voting public have a stomach for such a fiasco.

    It’s never been so true that if voting changed anything they would abolish it. For some on the snowflake wing leaving the EU mafia is unthinkable and is akin to being in the throes of Stockholm syndrome. They just don’t get we don’t dislike Europe but the corrupt EU. For others, they simply have too many fingers in the pie. Don’t think we’ll ever leave i’m afraid.

        Taffman,
        I know you are an ardent fan of UKIP and, presumably, ‘all things Farage’ but, he has to learn that being interviewed by Toady is always a disaster. I imaging the resident female muslim relishes her time interviewing Farage because, each time, without fail, she reduces him to a jellified mass of chortling, false chuckling. She derives so much obvious pleasure from the experience, she probaby volunteers for the ‘task’. Will Farage never learn that the modus of our far left cultural Marxists State Broadcaster ‘interviewing’ with Farage will always twist to focus on personal events or situations. They don’t want his opinion. They merely seek to lure him into personal stuff, like, today, questioning him on the leader of his new party having resigned.

          TS,
          A lesson for all, ‘non-believers’. A true example of the control the EU apparently has over the UK. Just ponder:
          An Act of Parliament is put in place by our Government with the support of the Commons and on a majority of voters. It is this Act of Parliament, so-say, sacrosanct in our legal system that tells us we will leave the EU on the 29th. But suddenly, in a hurried, short-notice evening meeting of the EU Heads of State and by their dictat, all that British pomp and ceremony in creating a sacrosanct Act is circumvented. What’s sacrosanct about this, nay any Act of the UK Parliament within the purview of the EU?
          Bercow’s 16th Century historical precedent is also swept away. And he will be told to accept the presentation of the same proposed legislation. Let’s see how he stands up to that.
          Best part about all this is, the EU will still be able to exercise that same power even when we have so-say, ‘Left’ the EU. Thanks to our own despotic ‘leader’, the now World famous, Treason May. Rejoice, rejoice?

      • Lucy Pevensey says:

        tarien,
        Prostitution is exactly the term used in Biblical analogy to describe those who bow to a foreign god. It’s a common theme among all the prophets. A nation forsaking the real God for a false god and idolatry is then abandoned by God and left open to plunder by it’s enemies.

        Islam is the biggest system of idolatry ever known to mankind. 1.8 billion people. The majority of them bowing or being forced to bow in worship 5 times per day to a black stone in Saudi Arabia.

        Atheists can be very well-meaning but they have a blind spot where spiritual principles are concerned. The secularists thought that banishing the honour of the Judeo-Christian God from our public sphere was progress. In reality it was only a step. A clearing out of one god to make way for another.

        Man will have his gods. A spiritual essence is one of the few things which separates us from the animals. It’s going to take a God (The God) to fight this interloper Allah.
        (Rumours of his greatness have been tremendously exaggerated)

      Well the Flying Spaghetti monster is considered the perfect role-model for all time, yet he married six year old Aisha who he hit in the chest for leaving the house against his orders. He owned and raped non-Muslim sex slaves like Maria the Copt.

      He force married Safiya the same day he had her husband tortured with molten metal to steal his gold, and genocided her tribe at Khybar. He married his cousin Zaynab, and stole his sons wife Zayd, and had the woman Asma-bint-Marwan murdered for witing insulting poems, and apostates killed when they fled after being made to drink camel urine…

      To get to heaven you need to copy Muhammad, so child rape, wife beating, forced marriage, incest, murder, genocide, and sex slavery for the unbeliever, and death to critics and apostates all increase you chances of getting in to heaven… and they don’t want you to know that.

      So i’m guessing Flying Spaghetti monster???

    Unfortunately I have had BBC News on this evening and the vast majority of commentary has been how bad a No Deal Brexit will be and how we should avoid it. The big guns have been rolled out yet again! Nigel did get about 3 minutes, but that was the only person who spoke up for No Deal, which is clearly what was voted for in the referendum. Meanwhile the BBC continue to plug the dubious petition to revoke Article 50 As well as using the “crash” word in almost every sentence.

    It woul be like lancing a boil if No Deal ACTUALLY happens next week. I promise to eat my own bodyweight in EU flags if it does!!

If however Article 50 is revoked and we end up embroiled in the financial troubles looming in the eu, it could be a different story in the future. I wonder if remainers really know what they voted for.

    The BBC are trying very hard to justify mass murder.

    What that nasty man in New Zealand?

    No they are spinning the attempted mass murder of 51 children in Italy by an African Muslim immigrant as HARD as they can.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-47653500

    Firstly they are not leading with ‘attempted mass murder by terrorist’ as they would if a bloke in Surrey shouted ‘f***ing Muslims’ but instead their ONLY front page link is to a story about

    “Italy bus attack thwarted by ‘hero’ teenager who contacted police”

    (Even if you check the BBC European news page

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world/europe

    the actual article about the terrorist is missing, there’s just ‘hero teenager’, the actual article is ONLY to be found as a footnote to the ‘hero teenager’ article)

    Naturally it’s emphasised as hard as possible that said ‘hero’ teenager is a Muslim illegal immigrant who the nasty Italian racists need to give citizenship to as soon as possible. [btw his act of heroism was calling his father on his phone to tell him the bus driver was trying to kill them.]

    “Italy’s Ansa news agency reports that Ramy made the call while pretending to pray in Arabic – but was in fact issuing a warning to his father.

    His father told Ansa that the family came from Egypt, and Ramy was born in 2005 in Italy – but has never been issued official citizenship documentation.

    “My son did his duty, it would be nice if he got Italian citizenship now,” he told the news agency. “We would love to stay in this country. ”

    [btw it’s worth noting here that like Senegal and Egypt, and indeed most of the world, if you are born in Italy to foreign parents, that does not grant Italian citizenship – such people should follow the naturalization law]

    Moving on, they explain the terrorist’s motivations.

    “During the hijacking, he reportedly told the captured schoolchildren he was prompted by the deaths of African migrants crossing the sea. A police spokesman also said that during the standoff, he had shouted “stop the deaths at sea, I’ll carry out a massacre”.

    And naturally the BBC don’t hesitate to rationalise this:

    “Italy’s government has taken a hard-line stance against migration from northern Africa, curtailing search and rescue operations – which humanitarian groups say endangers lives.”

    And then double down on suggesting the author of the ‘hard-line stance’ is racist, because he doesn’t accept that an immigrant rapist born overseas whose primary loyalties are to Africa should be referred to as ‘Italian’:

    ‘Interior Minister Matteo Salvini, a key architect of that policy, has referred to the suspect as “a Senegalese with Italian citizenship” rather than calling him an Italian.’

    The article ends with

    ‘Earlier this month, around 200,000 people attended an anti-racism march in Milan.’

    as if that somehow justified TRYING TO MURDER 51 CHILDREN.

    • Dystopian says:

      No room for dissent unless you want to ruin your career.

      Journalists inhabit a small pool. Anyone who hopes to work for the feather-bed lined BBC has to show political compliance to the Left before he/she/it can be considered for cosy life-long remuneration.

      It’s political corruption on a grand scale and must be destroyed.

      How would this work?

      The ones who are deserving of compensation – i.e. those who were enslaved – are long gone. So does that mean that their families financially benefit from a wrong that was not committed against them? If so, that would seem to be akin to, say, be allowed to claim compensation for injuries that one’s great-great-grandfather suffered when working in the mines.

      But if compensation were to be paid then surely equity requires that it come from the coffers of those whose family wealth was acquired or substantially enhanced from transporting slaves or using them as forced labour. Moreover, such an arrangement has a nice symmetry about it: the families of those who benefited compensating the families of those who were enslaved.

      Somehow I can’t see the so-called ‘elites’ going for that one.

      Oh, and one further point. There’s a general lack of acknowledgement that a situation tantamount to slavery was the lot of many working class people during the industrial revolution. Indeed, I’d go so far as to suggest that the truck system operated by many employers was slavery by another name. It was a case of ‘accept my terms or starve’. Choice in those dark, Satanic mills existed in name only. Which leads me to this proposition: should not those whose families suffered from the brutality of economic slavery be entitled to compensation as well?

        Repatriation of Blacks back to Africa was a policy of the anti-slave movement. Freetown Sierra Leone was set up for the repatriation of tens of thousands of former slaves of the British Empire. The Freetown for freed slaves is now twined with Hull, because of William Wilberforce, who was the white man who freed the slaves. But unlike Australians and Canadians emigrating back to Britain, Blacks in Britain don’t like emigrating back to Africa any more, because Africa is a s**t hole without the whites necessary for giving blacks jobs or benefits.

        Also, Liberia was set up for the repatriation of Black Americans, but today its not as popular for Black Americans, because like Sierra Leone, it is also an African s**t hole without the number of white people necessary to give the Blacks jobs or benefits.

        Its like BBC employees. They are dependent on the taxation of people who create wealth, but are not capable of creating wealth independently, due to only having the intellectual ability for the pursuit of Leisure activities. Although, Lenny Henry does occasional return to Africa to dig a hole in the ground, so that the locals can put a bucket into it, to get some water.

      Certainly not Guess Who, if that were indeed a case then we in Britain could sue for slavery reparartions. Romans who put most of the then Britons into slavery, the Vikings/ Normans who certainly enslaved the then population for hundreds of years. The nations that the black people came from, enslaved by their own people, their Chief’s sold thousands to the Arab traders, long before the Muslims arrived to do the same and more. But as ever History is twisted by the left/socialist brats to present a bad picture to the uneducated or should say those made by successive Governments to be disineterested in their past. The greed of the future is best eaten off their plates without consideration for what is to come. Slavery to the Mohammedan’s will be our future if Western Europe does not attend to its garden, what is growing there is not at all palatable.

    I’ve watched the first couple of episodes of the Disappearance of Madeleine McCann and the contempt I have when they are interviewing the BBC journo that was on the scene is vivid.

    Having seen in the programme, the distance that the Tapas restaurant was from the apartment, to then see the BBC guy walking down a walkway pointing at the apartment and he then says ‘with the parents dining just on the other side of this hedge’ tells you all you need to know about these slimy creatures who arrogantly claim to be purveyors of factual news reporting.

    Yeah nice one on forgetting that it is the swimming pool that is actually on the other side of the hedge and that the restaurant is on the other side of that. You couldn’t even get the geography of the complex correct and had to deliberately falsify your story to make it more dramatic.

    To see these pompous asses then talking about journalistic integrity and how searching for the truth is ‘what they do’ makes me sick.

    “WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order linking “free speech” efforts at public universities to federal grants in an effort to combat what he considers a clamp down on conservative students’ abilities to share their views.

    Under the order, the schools will themselves certify whether they are protecting students’ free speech rights, which are already guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution’s First Amendment.

    The order requires that schools ensure they allow students to express themselves in order to receive funds from 12 federal agencies that help fund universities and colleges.

    Trump administration officials have suggested that the rights of speakers on college campuses have been trampled by student protesters, and that conservatives have been unfairly targeted.”

      “the schools will themselves certify whether they are protecting students’ free speech rights,”
      Self certification!
      Again, because it worked so well in the past. For example, well I have forgotten the example.
      It will be lefty “business as usual”.
      The BBC will be preparing the one case, which it will produce, like a lonely rabbit out of a hat, to demonstrate that free speech is alive and well under Ingsoc.

      Those of us who voted to leave knew what we were voting for and those of us who voted leave knew what the remainers were voting for, that’s why we voted to leave. All I ever hear from remainers is white noise and not a single piece of constructive argument on the reasons for staying in. Have any of these people ever taken the trouble to read books by the likes of Christopher Booker, Richard North, Bernard Connolly, Marta Andreasen etc. The Orwellian warnings are all in there but the train seems unstoppable.

        Correct.
        From Heath onwards, in the UK, we have been lied to.
        The lies started much earlier in continental Europe.
        Since the referendum we have had 24/7 more Remainer lies, also known as “information”, which has persuaded some of the gullible.
        Propaganda paid for by some of our own contributions.
        The EU is not reforming, it will get worse when Tusk etc. have their own private army, dedicated to the supression of white Europeans.
        The remainers are traitors.
        We are leaving the EU, if necessary by violence.

      I think the really important issue is that there do not appear to be any razors specifically aimed at the transgender community. Nor are there any sanitary towels designed for them.

    Caught the last half hour of a programme on ITV last night following the Police Fraud Team in London.

    Nabbed a team of Africans red handed carrying out fraud, hundreds of police man hours went into the case. I imagine huge expense to the taxpayer also. They scammed over £300K off stolen credit cards in just over 3 months. Gucci everything, shoes, bags, you name it. A few were well known to the police.

    Judge gives the ringleader 3 years !! All others, SUSPENDED sentences !!!

    And they say crime doesn’t pay …. bollox !! They also wonder why these gangs of Eastern Europeans and Africans cant wait to get here and why normal folk like you and me have had a fu**in belly full if it !!!

    Does anyone actually watch Newsnight ? I guess the viewing figures are too low to measure . But at least we a guaranteed a girl presenter now as the state broadcaster is trumpeting the gender thing .

    No doubt the chaps in prison will be happy to have guaranteed female company at half ten at night .

    Many football pundits are now ‘ all black ‘ with varying degrees of ‘ expertise ‘ or ‘ experience ‘ .
    The state broadcaster seems very keen on engineering the demise of white men in broadcasting . So – such as the dimblys deserved it as I think nepotism is as vile as positive discrimination ( see the honourable Dan snow )
    But the people who tragically pay for their state TV deserve better . No?

    Jan Moir the Daily Mail columnist who’s accompanying
    catch phrase is “are you thinking what she’s thinking?” is NOT
    my favourite hack. But today in The Mail she writes about how
    women are taking over the BBC,in news presentation , reporting
    and other fields.
    There has been Women’s Hour on the radio since 1946. BBC TV
    has become more like Women’s 18 hours in regard to news
    programmes. The percentage of news presenters and reporters
    have now reached a seventy five percentage. At times its over
    eighty.
    White middle aged men are being dumped at an alarming rate.
    The proof of this is how Andrew Neil is being treated. He is by
    far the best political presenter on TV. But obviously not DIVERSE
    enough for the BBC and it’s paranoia with diversity.
    It’s got to the point where we have to listen to sports news
    given by a women with an Irish Republic brogue and continuity
    TV personal ,telling us whats coming up in patois. All in the name
    of diversity.
    I can imagine the Diversity department being in an orgasmic
    state yesterday when it was announced of the sponsorship
    given to Women’s football. The final bastion will be able to
    be breached. To get rid of Gary Lineker and replace him with a
    women to present Match of the Day. Featuring the women’s
    top matches. With a special feature on netball and women’s rugby!
