The only MSM review that comes close to being critical of bBBC “Years and Years” is that from The Spectator –
Other tweets –
/It’s anti Trump, anti Putin, pro migrants, pro LGBT, pro trans, mixed race marraiges. It’s a BBC drama no less and it’s a load of shite #YearsAndYears/
/Going by the twitter timeline, #YearsAndYears is pure Guardian / BBC wank-fodder for apathetic liberals who haven’t had anything to wring their hands & angst about since the Extinction Rebellion eco-students suddenly stopped ~protesting~ & SUV’d off back home to Tetbury/
First they came for Tommy Robinson,
And I did not speak out because,,
And it Farage who refused to speak out, and now it’s him.
I think that needs some explanation.
Because when TR was attacked if memory serves Farage was one of those who did not speak out or condemn the lack of Police action.
and he said unkind words about tommy and ukip.
Yes, you are right.
LBC, 7.45am tho this is morning, a caller informed know nothing Nick Ferrari of two facts:
1. Russell Howard, the self described comedian, made a rape joke about Anne Widdecombe. No outrage, no public hounding, no MSM response. Carl Benjamin makes the same joke against that nasty piece of work, Labour MP and every lefty in the country jumps on him as being some kind of criminal.
2. Tommy Robinson, on his campaign trail as an EU MEP candidate, is repeatedly assaulted and has a milkshake deliberately thrown over him. Everyone laughs, including the police who are supposed to be upholding the laws in our country. Nothing is done to the assailants. But Nigel Farage has a milk shake thrown over him and in his case it’s serious, all the usual rats are condemning it.
I’ve never heard someone taken off the air as quickly as this man was, by the know nothing Nick Ferrari.
Anyone wanna guess what the descrediting story will be on the MSM Tuesday and Wednesday …?
Russians ? Farage mistreating his dog ? Not recycling his rubbish ? Some dodgy recording from 1965 ? We should be told
( and one of George Soros ‘ prostitutes will do the dirty work ).
Here we go I’ll save you all the anguish of reading about that brave young Spanish lad that attacked the Muslim terrorists during the London bridge attack. Note the totally pro Muslim BBC (It’s all our fault because we are colonial) fail to mention the fact that the “attackers” are a) terrorists and b) Muslim…..however they manage to tell you that the brave Spanish lad was a Catholic…..pathetic pathetic pathetic….and we are paying for this.
man ran towards the London Bridge attackers and tried to beat them with his skateboard before he was fatally stabbed, an inquest has heard.
Spaniard Ignacio Echeverría, 39, was one of eight people killed by Rachid Redouane, Youssef Zagbha and Khuram Butt on 3 June 2017.
Guillermo Sanchez-Montisi said his friend ran at the attackers when he saw one of them stab a woman.
His killers looked “prepared” and “professional”, the Old Bailey heard.
Mr Echeverría, Mr Sanchez-Montisi and another friend were cycling along Borough High Street after a day’s skateboarding on the South Bank when they saw an injured man running away from London Bridge.
Victims of the London Bridge attackLondon Bridge attack: What happened
The court was shown CCTV footage of Mr Echeverría getting off his bike and running to join PC Wayne Marques and off-duty PC Charles Guenigault who were trying to intervene as the attackers stabbed Marie Bondeville and Oliver Dowling.
Mr Echeverría, who worked for HSBC as part of a team fighting money laundering, could then be seen swinging his skateboard at Rachid Redouane.
Redouane made a stabbing motion towards Mr Echeverría, who fell to the ground. The footage then showed Zagbha and Redouane attacking him.
Mr Sanchez-Montisi said in a statement read out to court: “From the way they were attacking people it was clear that their intentions were to kill everyone.”
He said there was a woman, now known to be Ms Bondeville, on the floor being stabbed repeatedly.
‘Professional’ assailants
Describing his friends actions, he said: “It was like he didn’t even think about it, but reacted immediately,”
“He grabbed his skateboard… and went towards the group,” he said.
“One of the attackers was covering his head as Ignacio was hitting him with the skateboard. I could hear the sound of the skateboard hitting, then suddenly Ignacio was on the floor,” he added.
Mr Sanchez-Montisi said he watched his friend then attempt to fend off the attackers’ blows with his skateboard before one of them stabbed him.
A courtroom’s hushed silence
BBC reporter Francesca Gillett, at the inquest
The packed courtroom watched footage of Mr Echeverría’s last moments in hushed silence.
CCTV showed Mr Echeverría and his friends cycling into the path of the commotion.
The camera’s view was partially blocked by a bus stopping as the attack unfolded. Traffic had slowed and bus passengers got off and fled the scene. In large letters, an advert on the side of the bus read: “Stop! In the name of love”.
Earlier that day Mr Echeverría – described by his friend as a Catholic who was “all about trying to help people” – had bought a small, toy blackboard for his sister’s children.
He had the gift with him on the night of the attack, along with the skateboard he used to try to stop the attackers.
Footage showed wounded Mr Echeverría falling backwards onto the pavement and then waving the skateboard with outstretched arms to defend himself.
Later, the manager of nearby tapas restaurant Lobos told how he suddenly found himself in charge of the safety of his customers and staff. He locked the doors and kept people away from the windows.
CCTV from the restaurant showed terrified waitresses holding their hands to their mouths in disbelief and pointing in horror as the attack unfolded outside.
Dr Jonathan Moses, who was off duty and dining there, became upset in court as he recounted persuading the manager to let him go and help.
“I said I can’t watch them die,” he said, his voice shaking. He had gone to the aid of a woman lying on the ground and told her: “I’m a doctor, here to help.”
Image copyrightPAImage captionMr Echeverría’s parents accepted their late son’s George Medal from the Queen in October last year
Mr Echeverría was posthumously awarded the George Medal for his actions.
His father, Joaquín Echeverría, said the family has not attended the inquest as “a gesture to show we have complete faith in the justice system in England”.
Continuing his evidence, Mr Sanchez-Montisi said the knifemen looked “prepared, professional”.
He said he had to run away because he felt he might become their next target after one attacker “looked straight at me”.
“When he was looking at me, his face, he looked like the devil,” he added. “It was very painful to leave my friend but we were going to be next.”
“I would not wish the feeling impotence, of not being able to do anything, on anyone, even my worst enemy”, he said.
Evidence has been heard in relation to the seven other victims: Xavier Thomas, Chrissy Archibald, Sara Zelenak, James McMullan, Sébastien Bélanger, Alexandre Pigeard and Kirsty Boden.
I have made two complaints to the British Broadcasting to the caliphate , about the omission of the words Islam and Muslim on EVERY broadcast covering the London Bridge attacks, they replied it was not relevant as they are covering the victims stories. Tell that to the families of the poor people butchered by these animals.The BBC are out of control and feel they can broadcast whatever they want without consequences. I have complained to my MP, but got the standard dismissive reply from her????
Similarly yesterday with a report relating to a child murdered in the Manchester Arena atrocity
If successive governments, but especially the Beliar cabal, had not taken away our right to own and carry firearms some of these deaths could have been prevented.
His killers looked “prepared” and “professional”…
A pity they did not have some military rank in ISIS by which the reporters could have referred to them, as they used to do with the IRA.

Maybe Jon Snow – cousin? Of Danny snow – can launch an inquiry as to whether is relative is a liar – has there been a follow up comment or has the beeboid realised his flippant lie is so out of the stream of public opinion that he is ‘ducking his nut ‘ on one of the lady wife’s country estates …
I haven’t even got mine, Mrs O’Blene has, and anyway, you don’t need one when you vote (The Brexit Party).
Should not Islamic Terrorists be defined as Far-Right?
Their beliefs are Far-Right.
More accurate than the BBC term ‘Fighter’.
That is an excellent point, by the same token could a non white person ever be labelled far right by the bbc, or anyone else come to that.
Avi Yemini reports that YouTube has been pressured to suppress TR’s 20 min video (which was posted on Avi’s channel yesterday) about Oldham.
To see it on YT you have to sign in and consequently this has restricted the viewing figures.
He thinks that if Tommy still had his YT and Facebook pages this would have been viewed millions of times and guarantee his seat as an MEP.

A poor showing by the BBC. The news on milkshakes mentions Tommy Robinson but fails to tell the readership that his real name is Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon
Mr Farage is the the latest victim of a protest which has seen other European election candidates such as Ukip’s Carl Benjamin and ex-English Defence League leader Tommy Robinson suffer similar attacks.

If the poll tracker is to be believed our House of Comedians is in denial.
How often did we hear “we did not know what we were voting for”.
We know now and we knew then, remember the £9M booklet that came from the government ?
More importantly, do the House of Comedians know what they are voting for?
Does the House of Comedians know what democracy is ?
This makes my blood boil, what chance of crowdfunding some sort of legal action I wonder. I noticed regards the milkshake incident with NF, the BBC’s report is almost celebratory, even giving details of the milkshake’s flavour and content and naturally a word of justification from the attacker in quotes of course.
I also read the report of the brave Spanish lad and indeed, no mention of the reasons for the attack, i.e ‘Islamic terror’, not even a mention of ‘terror’ or the words shouted during the attack, namely AA , as these poor people lay dying. However had this been a person of a different religious or political persuasion, I suspect the reporting may have been somewhat different.
Something has to be done
Flavour, content, maker and price ffs, just serves to trivialise the incident and add a comedy element. So in future we can expect the bbc to report thus, ‘Mr Smith who was hit over the head with a £10.99 baseball bat available from Sports Direct…

My son is 12. Today he says, why does the school go on about diversity of belief and opinion and yet implies that everyone must subscribe to Global warming ‘science’ and of course, Greta. Not impressed, I told him that, that is the Liberal- Left view, they only have the one view and that is, their view.
My grandson is also 12. I asked him if he is getting all this save the planet stuff at school. He said yes we have a nutjob teacher who goes on and on about it.

[I believe nothing till I see it]
The best advice.
The State Broadcaster output (online anyway) has to me seemed low key thus far for these European Parliamentaries.
How politics are done in the UK in 2019. Milkshakes, eggs and bricks.
Shut one side up, show them looking stupid, covered in sugary milk with ears ringing with nebulous accusations of wrongdoing from a failed unelected PM. The EU fanboys have the airwaves clear to authoritatively ‘inform’ the electorate.
Wear a white suit Nige, give ’em two fingers, and sack your ‘minders’.
How delicious to see an MP from islam-loving Labour head to head with homophobic muslim activists.
“Look, we don’t mind you murdering infidels on our streets and raping our daughters in industrial quantities, but objecting to LGBTQ indoctrination – that’s totally unacceptable.”

I wonder where the full video of her grovelling on the floor or him getting abusive is, rather than that chopped out little snippet
In the above exchange, a muslim woman is heard shouting “we’re not homophobic”.
She could have added, “we just believe homosexuality is a sin punishable by death, like our scriptures tell us”.
“Quran: If two men among you are guilty of lewdness, punish them both.
Abdullah ibn Abbas : The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: If you find anyone doing as Lot’s people did, kill the one who does it, and the one to whom it is done.
Sunan Abu Dawud 38:444
Abdullah ibn Abbas : If a man who is not married is seized committing sodomy, he will be stoned to death.
Al Tirmidhi
Whoever is found conducting himself in the manner of the people of Lot, kill the doer and the receiver.
It was narrated from Ibn`Abbas that the Messenger of Allah said: “Whoever you find doing the action of the people of Lut, kill the one who does it, and the one to whom it is done.” (Hasan)
It was narrated from Abu Hurairah that the Prophet said concerning those who do the action of the people of Lut: “Stone the upper and the lower, stone them both.” (Hasan)
Al Muwatta
Malik related to me that he asked Ibn Shihab about someone who committed sodomy. Ibn Shihab said, “He is to be stoned, whether or not he is muhsan.”
Ibn Abbas and Abu Huraira reported God’s messenger as saying, ‘Accursed is he who does what Lot’s people did.’ In a version…on the authority of Ibn Abbas it says that Ali [Muhammad’s cousin and son-in-law] had two people “burned” and that Abu Bakr [Muhammad’s chief companion] had a wall thrown down on them.”
Punish, kill, burn and stone gays. What’s homophobic about that?

“”Shakeel Afsar is the leader of the Anderton Park protests, although he has no children at the school.””
“”He said the school had pulled “the shutters down” on parental engagement and was promoting LGBT lifestyles to children.””
BBC tell us that Burger King are mischievously telling people to have fun with their milkshakes.
Great, we can have a milkshake throwing party in all the Bugger Kings then .
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7049533/Five-Romanian-farm-workers-jailed-gang-rape-teenage-girl-filmed-phones.html
ahhh well at least the price of jersey royals was kept down
I was trying to find out who owns Burger King . It seems to be owned by an American hedge fund with a lot of franchising involved .
I don’t think I’ve ever frequented greasy Burger King. But the idea of sharing milk shakes in the restaurants in the way they seems to be inciting seems aprropriate . The bottom line is key ….
The guardian is running an editorial piece entitled
‘Milkshakes – a delicious drink or the new symbol of resistance ?’
With the anniversary of a dead labour back bench PM coming up it’s good that this rag can be so flippant about physical attacks on people seeking public office they don’t like . I’m sure they’ll treat the next killing of a politician with the appropriate degree of flippancy .
I don’t understand: what’s stopping any victim of this abuse holding their own milk shake in preparation for a response to the attacker?

“Brexit: Matt Hancock urges MPs to vote for bill”
Summary for those in hurry.
Lying Pseudo Conservative Minister urges MPs to vote for the lying Traitor May’s not Brexit WA which they have already rejected 3 times.
Hancock and May ridiculed in the pro Brexit comments.
Shocking article, I gave up eating anything from an ‘Indian’ takeaway or restaurant a long time ago, this just reinforces that feeling:

They aren’t called ‘Donna kebabs ‘ for nothing . 100% Donna . – go for the sheesh…less mouse and rat droppings …
Pork is forbidden (haram) but 14-year-old girl seems to be allowed (halal) apparently.
Such quaint customs.
Can’t wait to see the al-beeb investigation.
I suppose on the idiom that ‘any publicity is good publicity ‘ then the fact that Mr Farage has been physically attacked by a 32 year old kidult who works for sky – will remind the less attentive that there is an election on Thursday and that they should vote Brexit Party to save our democracy – a bit .
two tweets
In bBBC land, assaults by the Far left on the centre right are allowed and therefore not newsworthy.
Thus no mention on bBBC 6pm news, unless I fell asleep. Maybe I did.
anyone got sky ??? maybe time to show your feelings by withdrawing your subscription
Yorkshire Post and rest of the unbankrupt JPI media group run this :
\\ Young Muslim girl wins competition with speech about Manchester arena bombing
Sara Hussain spoke about going back in time to persuade the suicide bomber not to carry out his deadly attack //
This country is well on its way to going back in time-to the dark ages thanks to a certain “religion”.
Maybe she could go further back and persuade the “perfect man” to be less hostile.
Good to see someone benefiting from the Manchester terror.
Interesting how a white man throws a milkshake and is arrested for assault, but a Muslim throws a milkshake (over Tommy Robinson) and not only avoids arrest but is chauffeured away by the police!
The cops probably bought him the milkshake.
Joooooooooooking!
Well now – I would have thought such a serious allegation about such a serious matter would get him banished from the State Broadcaster .
Instead he’ll get the ‘ celebrity ‘ treatment.
I wonder if the countless Remainers who were all over twitter last night will be equally noisy in denouncing this dipstick bubble dweller .
29 thousand views on twitter
Also, has the far-left bbc collective fired John Sweeney yet?
so are all his history programs complete lies as well??
once a liar …
Have you seen some of his “history programmes”? They’re complete bollocks.
I’ve not got over the astonishing one he made about the Norman invasion of 1066 and had a black actor playing William’s right hand man. This geezer was the main military strategist; the brains behind the successful invasion. It was laughable.
These BBC lefties aren’t bringing us history, they’re inserting politically correct narratives into real events and distorting the truth.
I wouldn’t trust Dan Snow to tell me the bloody time…
In 5 years time, ‘children won’t know what Snow is.’
For Mr Snow’s elucidation, liars don’t get into heaven. Except, of course, through the Grace of Jesus Christ. But you have to believe in Him first and accept Him as Lord and Saviour.
Otherwise…. It doesn’t bear thinking about.
Snow backtracked , but there was no apology in that video (see below)
He’s #TheFakeStoryGuy
and uncle JonSnow is #TheSoManyWhitePeopleGuy
Is it true that the UKIP leaflet is too big to actually fit inside the postal ballot envelope anyway ?
The deadline for postal ballot is election day 23rd so why was Snow opening his only on Sunday 19th ? … fishy ?
Ah Snow did tweet an
apologyadmission of possible incompetence at 6:08pmHa ha ha ha ha ha.
Here’s one that has really got the bBBC editorial team’s knickers in a twist.
Back in the news is the predominantly muslim school in Birmingham whose parents object to the ‘teaching’ of LGBT focussed issues. As a result they are keeping their kids away from school lessons.
So, what is the editorial line ?
Could this become a very rare case of impartiality?
Oh to be a fly on the wall………
The BBC’s Guy in Brussels channelling his inner Paul Mason/Katty Kay/Dan Snow mash up.
GW – Verhofstadt will not be there. Because he is not all there.
He has a heart condition though – and other health issues . No further comment on one of the UKs enemies .,
F – He has a head condition, as noted by dozens in the twitter link just those in English. If your tell me the Italian for insane I will have another look.
is that not slander or libel or something surely in at least 1 country
or does verhofftwat have some kind of pan euro immunity
The Yorkshire Dales: A very politically correct program transmitted in Yorkshire. BBC 2 on Saturday.
It shows us that Charities run by metropolitan left-wing middle-class southerners are using foreign aid to replace the working-class Dales folk with foreigners. (1) We see Afghan asylum seekers used as cheap labour on a farm which has replace local Shepherd’s. (2) We see blind Asians on the backs of tandems pedalled by white metropolitan left-wing middle-class southerners. (3) We see a white male metropolitan left-wing middle-class southerner beaten by a female cyclist to the top of the Buttercups pass. (4) We see a metropolitan left-wing middle-class southerner help a black man (brought in to replace locals with cheap labour) clean out the stables. (5) We meet the first woman to become a guard on the Wensleydale Railway. She now wants the volunteers to train her to become its first female train driver. Other small politically correct incidents involved local politicians, etc.
The southern libtards encouraged mass trash immigration into London etc which made that place a shocking dump, noticed what had hit the fan, so decided to white flight out – though they won’t ever admit that.
Now they are swarming out into indigenous rich places like parts of Yorkshire and encouraging mass trash immigration all over again….
”there goes the neighbourhood..” I loudly say to myself if i see any newcomer liberals,

Please see my contribution, P1 of this thread, on Cohen in The Guardian making a conspiracy out of one rape joke.

Would the bBC care to comment?
I think guido has reported that Nigel Farage has been invited to be at the State Banquet for President Trump -on The America team -against the wishes of the British state government .
I so hope this is true -just to stick it further to the undemocratic bubble . Add to that any would be milk shake thrower might get a less friendly response ….
Different subject – the Tories have nominated a diverse criminal to be their Parliamentary candidate for Peterborough . Surely that’s false news ? Please ?
Not the Tories parliamentary candidate but their candidate to be the next city mayor – you can probably guess his ideology.
Which Mayor? There are two – one the ceremonial head of the council, and the other the elected Mayor of Cambridge & Peterborough.
Please remember to post links as trying to wade through Google to find what you are referring to is a big time waster, even more so if you can’t find it.

Peterborough by election what is the biggest issue affecting your vote – Brexit at 61% ! It doesn’t have a split for leave / remain but it is clearly a major factor in the coming voting.
The Monster Raving Loony Party is standing. They could trounce the Tories.
BBC Online News:
“”Eurovision: Is Brexit to blame for the UK’s latest flop?””

Just when you thought the BBC couldn’t be even more anti-Brexit.

Still on the Peterborough by election, of course one of the main issues being Brexit here is the Tory candidates statement on it – just so you the voter will know where on the issue he stands before you cast your vote:
“To make Brexit work for Peterborough families – by securing the investment that people in Peterborough need. We’re taking a balanced approach to the economy – cutting our debt while investing in public services. That means we can afford to improve our town centre, with better open spaces and more choice for shoppers. Just like we did in Cathedral Square. So our whole city benefits from more jobs and a stronger local economy. ”
Any the wiser? If that’s the best he can do then he deserves to lose and badly. Just in case I have this wrong here’s his website so you can check yourself:

I had an eight page leaflet from this Tory candidate posted through the letterbox last week – it’s full of scaremongering about Jeremy Corbyn and nothing about the accomplishments of Theresa May and the current government. In fact is never even mentions her by name, whereas the word “Corbyn” can be found a total of thirteen times.

The BBC is not keen to comment on the fall of Venezuela in an way other than all ‘it’s Trump’ fault. But then they are somewhat distracted by BREXIT protestations. The EU is a socialist dream state in development. We are not there yet, it may take 20 years but it will be China or Russia mark 2. What the UK may look like if we stay in the EU will be more like Greece and Spain than Venuzuela, but all are facing financial ruin. Only Venuzuela have managed to do this on their own without the EU legislation.
This is worth a read. Its NOT Trumps fault. The BBC are far too busy defending the UK Socialist alliance within the confines of the EU to check what facts it has. Nobody prospers in the EU. There can be no alternative (nor will there be any sunny options for our MEP to follow post BREXIT. Maybe a life pension (all MEPS have that right plus expenses). It will collapse, its just how long will it take? The EU is not democratic in the sense of an open democracy. It is authoritarian and totalitarian. Democracy is a facade to quell the uninformed that they will be assimilated, processed and ultimately ignored.
This is Socialism at work. An interesting BLOG linked from the TA actually does give some salient facts about the dangers of Socialism and what it costs…
Could it happen in the UK? Arguably its already happening in the EU. The BBC thinks its too biased to report, you know that famous impartiality that is as rare as hen’s teeth…
‘Chloe Westley examined the causes of the recent violence in Venezuela. She concludes that in a desperate attempt to maintain control and impose his socialist agenda, President Nicolas Maduro is using military force to quell political dissidents. Worse still, many political commentators refuse to accept that socialist policies are the problem:
“Many on the far left simply refuse to accept that socialism hasn’t worked in Venezuela. They often claim that U.S. sanctions are to blame for Venezuela’s troubles. But price controls, production quotas, nationalising nearly all industries, and introducing currency controls have all contributed to economic collapse. And even if you believe that Venezuela’s economic crisis was caused directly by sanctions imposed by America, what possible explanation can be offered for imprisoning political opponents and using military force against protestors?”

Just switched on the BBC News Channel to be told that “the most interesting story in the news today” is the fact that 400 African-American students at a university in Atlanta, Georgia have had all their university fees paid for by a longstanding graduate of the institution. I’m sure that’s very nice for them, but is it really worth reporting on a British news channel?
Sounds a bit racist to me.
The news report?
I’m supposed to be sleeping
but this came up
I notice that State Broadcaster continues to look at the ‘funny’ side this morning. Compare with Sourby being shouted at.
Yet in stark contrast, Julia Hartley Brewer has rightly condemned the assailant and correctly stated that this is an attack on a politician and is unacceptable.
Julia went on to say that the divide is no longer between leave/remain, conservative/labour et al, but rather, that it is between democracy or non democracy and that if you don’t agree with someone’s political views you ought to challenge them or debate them, not throw things at them.
Of course you won’t hear such reasoning on the biased pathetic bbc with their pathetic immature cheerleading of such events.
BBC – shit stirring at its best.
Dys,
Cultural Marxism devotees and all they spawn is now out in the open for all to see and recognise.
Wow
You couldnt make it up.
The BBC now blamming Brexit for our failure to win Eurovision….the Europeans hate us …..is one quote. No love (intentionaly patronising) the European elite hate us but the man in the street (or women) admires the British voter for standing up against tyranny as we the British have done for the last Hundered and Twenty years. The article then debunks itself by showing that we haven’t done well for twenty years. And if Eurovision is the mouth piece of the socialist remainer pro European left wing euro group how the f did Israel win last year.
The BBC is getting more pathetic with each day.
I’d thought the article I scan read yesterday was balanced. Perhaps there was more than one?
“You couldnt make it up.”
The BBC do!
Halifax,
The BBC headline writer came up with deceitful and misleading click bait:
Eurovision: Is Brexit to blame for the UK’s latest flop?
The body of the article makes fair points about the failure of the UK in Eurovision before and after Brexit.
Trump’s ‘genocidal taunts’ will not end Iran – Zarif
If the article didn’t have the BBC logo it could pass for that of an Iranian state broadcaster. The article focuses heavily on the Iranian position and uses a clip from Clapper to weave the ‘propaganda’.
We are supposed to believe that Trump is a madman dictator and the US is being dragged along against it’s will. I don’t think so, if anything, Trump is probably one of a minority who are resisting US globalisation ambitions?
Irony alert.

State Broadcaster’s line on Farage appears set this morning – Use smeared in sugary milk photo and smear with Gordon Brown’s accusation.
The one referred to here?
Unique. Nick Robinson may need to look away as he passes that statue.
Obvious questions aren’t put if they hurt one’s own.
As ever I’d have no problem if this was The Mirror or The Guardian though this lot are funded by tax. Make State Broadcaster go subscription and they can say what they like for all I care.

Nick Robinson may need to look away as he passes that statue.
Nah, he’ll gaze adoringly up at it as if he’s a true disciple of Orwell.
