The Far Left Failing Biased BBC keeps on giving doesn’t it ? It doesn’t even pretend to be neutral any more . There is just one ‘approved ‘ story ;facts which don’t fit the narrative are minimised or ignored . And people are forced to pay for it .
And if you think the MPs see it as biased – think again – the link below is to the debate on the useless petition about BBC bias

From time to time over the past three years politicians have needed to be reminded of what Brexit means in the minds of most Leave voters, and what was needed – in broad terms – to achieve it. This is what this government needs to be reminded of: 1. All ministers must now openly back Brexit, whichever way they voted
2. They must embody a confident and positive vision of a post-Brexit Britain
3. Forget ‘forms of words’ and legal fudging, success requires clear, unequivocal objectives
4. The UK has red lines based on the simple fact that the people voted to leave
5. This means exiting all EU structures and controls
6. These will NOT be replaced with anything that has broadly the same effect as being a Member State
7. Specifically, there will be :
• No membership of the Single Market or anything like it
• No membership of the Customs Union or anything like it
• No ‘regulatory alignment’ of British goods, except for exports to the EU
• Full ability to implement new international trade deals from October 2019
• No jurisdiction by the ECJ
• No freedom of movement – full autonomy
• No submission to Common Agriculture or Fisheries Policies
• No involvement in EU defence union in any form
• No change in status of Northern Ireland and Gibraltar in any way
8. UK will act as an independent country in all respects
9. EU to be offered a generous free trade deal – zero tariffs
This is what one person had to say just a day or so ago:
I urge ALL elected MPs (especially remain voting MPs), to remember they won their Westminster seats by a MAJORITY electoral vote.
ALL MPs are able to vote (when required to divide) on issues raised by members, and they do so because it’s democratic.
So when the electorate return the largest ever vote in British history, and SOME MPs are upset at the instruction they were given, they are worthy of an ‘anti-democratic’ tag – The electorate are not stupid, and we NEVER forget.
Some MPs are not worthy to sit on the green benches whilst they ignore the MAJORITY electorate (“majority” being the operative word).
MPs ignoring 17.41 MILLION voters should think carefully about their privileged taxpayer funded Westminster seat.
When the MUPPETS (MP’s) vote in Parliament, the majority wins that vote – and one vote is enough to win.
When the electorate are asked to vote, the same applies.
There is one sitting MP with a TWO VOTE majority, but no-one yelled foul play? Everyone just got on with life.
When Boris is elected his first job must be to flush the Remainer turds in May’s cabinet down the toilet and spray the country with optimism freshener.
I quote from The House of Commons paper ‘Can the Withdrawal Agreement be renegotiated and can Parliament prevent ‘no deal’?
Because leaving the EU is an EU law process, at the national level a ‘no-deal’ Brexit can only be avoided if:
The Government unilaterally revokes Article 50 TEU and stays in the EU; or
Parliament approves and the Government ratifies the Withdrawal Agreement.
Nothing else that the Government or Parliament can do can be relied upon to stop a ‘no-deal’ Brexit on 31 October.
Of course the new Prime Minister could as Edward Heath did in 1972, he used the Crown Perogative to side line Parliament and push through the Uk becoming a member of the EU or in this present case the UK coming out with a No Brexit Deal. This really will be the only for us to proceed.

Isn’t the news format so predictable now.
We start off with the anti Trump section where everyone virtue signals over something mis reported that Trump has said, done or tweeted.
Next, the anti Brexit section where the old tired project fear is pushed out again and the all too familiar ‘because of Brexit/despite Brexit’ news item is discussed by a panel of remainders.
These top two are usually interchangeable depending on which has got the lefties most upset.
Then, we get a crime section where a ‘person’ has knifed/shot/beheaded someone, or on the rare occasion a white local has done it, we get names, pictures, the lot, with the usual talking heads coming on and blaming whitey of racism or more often, a warning not to have a backlash against the usual perps, although there almost never is.
Then there’s the story of the good ‘enricher’ who has made the world a better place (by baking a cake for some old people or something like that)
Next, pictures of turtles with a straw in their nose or a plastic bottle in the sea followed by various warnings of how long we have left to save the planet.
All interspersed with any negative stories about Farage, TBP, UKIP and the others that our ‘worlds most trusted’ hates.
We all know the ‘impartial’ bbc’s bias against Trump and Brexit as well as their pro immigration, agw, wimmin, enrichers, eu, the far left, antifa, sjw….. you all know who.
They could put the same news out every day and it would be little different from what they put out now. It’s always the same old formula.
And more and more of us are becoming aware of the far left bias. Not just the ‘worlds most trusted’ but the likes of sky as well.
Still waiting for the bbc’s First pro Brexit program.

The BBC was today blasted for its ‘deeply upsetting’ plan to send squads of TV licence fee ‘police’ to pensioners’ homes to demand they pay the annual £154.40 fee. A BBC spokeswoman said, “Outreach teams will chase those who fail to pay ‘as sympathetically as possible’.
Listening to this, I was suddenly reminded of ‘The Bottom Inspectors’ that used to appear in Viz, many years ago.

Staggering and blatant bias by Joanna Gosling (Victoria Derbyshire) on Donald Trump’s tweetgate. The general impression she gave was that he had said that they (the four women) “…should go back”. She then goes on to read the entire tweet verbatim. Here is the complete tweet.
So interesting to see “Progressive” Democrat Congresswomen, who originally came from countries whose governments are a complete and total catastrophe, the worst, most corrupt and inept anywhere in the world (if they even have a functioning government at all), now loudly……
….and viciously telling the people of the United States, the greatest and most powerful Nation on earth, how our government is to be run. Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how….
But guess which sentence she did not read.. the last sentence which reads “Then come back and show us how”.
The BBC peddles the lie that he tweeted that they should leave. It would be demonstrably accurate instead to have explained that he had said they should see if their absurd ideology works in the broken countries of their origin and then come back and show us how. But let’s not let the facts get in the way of an opportunity to shout “racist” at the Donald.

Apparently the coming ‘britbox’ will cost £5.99 a month for something people have already paid for through the TV Tax .
I bet the take up figures will either not be published ( for ‘commercial reasons ‘ the term used to cover up thing people won’t like ) or just be falsified .
The number of subscriptions taken up by ‘public bodies ‘ and MPs will also be interesting .
On the upside – perhaps this will be the first nail in the coffin of the TV tax – but in reality – how many people would choose to pay for the BBC instead of the likes of Netflix, amazon and the other platforms coming along ….
Even the name britbox is insulting to me . I think the IRA populised the term ‘brit’ in their propaganda campaign with their cursed political wing – now its being used by the British Broadcasting Collective.

This is what George Orwell said about controlling the facts.
If you can make people believe that “two and two is five”, then facts no longer exist, and people will believe whatever you say. Winston said “There was truth and there was untruth, and if you clung to the truth even against the whole world, you were not mad.” Except that holding onto truth makes you mad in the eyes of the state.
Or in other words
If the BBC can make people believe that “two and two Kelvin is five Kelvin”, then facts no longer exist, and people will believe whatever the BBC says.

The democratic process will ultimately deliver an anti-democratic ideologically driven regime in the UK, it is a demographic certainty.

Beardy Branson is concerned about the so-called climate emergency. In an exclusive interview with the BBC he tells us that we all need to do something about it. Somehow the irony escapes critique when in the next sentence he is asked about his space ambitions. He hopes to go into space in a matter of months. Leaving aside that the entire CO2 contribution to climate change is a monumental scam and myth (other opinions are available) wouldn’t he better serve the ideology of the alarmists by not going into space?
Asked about air travel (which I happen to agree is a modern necessity, forget about persuading people not to fly) he says all airlines need to do their bit. He explains that Virgin is doing its bit by encouraging aerospace manufacturers to use more ecological materials in the production of aircraft. No problem with fuel though, even though a 747 uses four litres per second. That’s over twenty thousand gallons (in Queen’s English) of fuel to go from London to Necker Island – it’s his birthday today and he’s off to his island tonight. The Department of Transport says that private cars averaged 7900 miles in 2015. Quite happy to tell us, via the BBC, that we all need to do our bit, probably by buying a bicycle, and then pumping twice as much CO2 into the atmosphere in one birthday trip than two ‘plebs’ do in a year. I don’t know how much fuel his rocket will use but a Saturn V rocket needs 770 000 litres of kerosene to get into orbit. Again, I support the idea of space exploration but this is vanity.
Oh yes, and according to Branson, no-deal bad. No deal means disaster for the economy. BBC boxes properly ticked in one interview. Happy birthday Dick.

“Do our bit”? To what purpose, exactly? To prorogue a changing climate (to coin a current phrase)? It’s going to continue changing, whether or not we approve. If we were all to die tomorrow, the climate would continue to change in its own time. I do wish these holier-than-thou hypocrites would shut their collective faces, and desist from telling us what to do, and what not to do.
They know it’s a scam – anyone with half a brain knows, but they think that we will willingly submit to alarmism and fearmongering over a non-event, and especially one which is purported to be an “emergency”n and just keep quiet and do as we’re told. I wish we could fight back, I really do – but our only recourse is to deliberately use the services and products that they disapprove of, with abandon. The problem with that, of course, is that it costs US an arm and a leg, and them nothing.

As we all know Tommy Robinson has been found guilty of contempt of court. At the moment he’s still in Britain’s most notorious terrorist nick, where only the very worst offenders end up. This is where they put bombers, sex offenders and serial killers.
It’s been argued that this situation will change when a place becomes available elsewhere. Hmmm…
I find this argument difficult to swallow. Although he’s high profile, in the broad scheme of things, this is a relatively minor offence. It’s not a bloody murder charge and no-one’s been hurt.
Undoubtedly due to the religion and nature of a huge number of the inmates he’ll, once again, have to spend his time in solitary confinement.
I don’t think he’s been treated fairly and the great and the good are queuing up to condemn him.
I was hoping we might hear something from Cherie Blair. In 2010, when sentencing a defendant, Shamso Miah, for assault, she announced that she would suspend his prison sentence after describing him as a “religious man.” Just out of interest Shamso had broken a man’s jaw following a row…
In 2015 she defended Rwandan spy Emmanuel Karenzi Karake against accusations that he had conspired to murder three Spanish NGO workers and a Canadian priest. A real charmer!
So far not a single human rights lawyers has come forward to offer their services to Mr Robinson.
There’s a surprise…

‘Business Insider’ goes into full-blown anti-Boris mode, claiming that Mr Johnson had asked whether Ms Merkel had been in the Stasi.
This is intended to be another black mark against Boris, but it is an entirely reasonable question.
I have been studying the astonishing Merkel rise to fame (her real name was Kasner) for some time, and recognised a skillful layer (Merkel/Kasner) of smoke and mirrors, slipperier than an eel, who would have done Le Carre proud. Her net worth:11.5 million dollars
Guenther Lachmann (ex “Welt”) and Ralf Georg (ex-“BILD”) did a lot of research for a biography of Merkel. “The first life of Angela Merkel”, which sees her as being secretary for Agitprop in the SED-related “Free German Youth”.
They are merely a few of many.
Looking at what she has been up to since she became Chancellor, I’d say Boris asked an entirely logical and legitimate question…
Of course, the anti-Boris campaign is now in full swing, and a marvel to behold!

Fedup – Merkel (whose real name is Kasner) wouldn’t be about to admit to Parkinson’s, even if she had it. She will do nothing to cut short her grip on power, having recently elevated two of her buddies into important political offices; lots more damage to be done.
She would certainly have come out at the top of the SED (Communist) in the former GDR, had that survived. My own feeling is that she is a very Green socialist, who -had she been genuine in Germnay post 1989- would have joined the Greens. (She has also recently developed into a strong Feminist.) But for her, the most promising route to power is what counts, and they weren’t it.
She is an extremely shrewd/cunning politician, utterly ruthless, and currently doing all the national anthem stuff in a sitting position. ‘Her people’ don’t seem to mind the humiliation. But then, for many years they’ve entrusted her with the cheque book, and she’s ‘gone to town’. She couldn’t give two hoots. Whatever it takes.

R4 news – “Donald Trump obviously racist” the presenters throughout today pushing and pushing everyone today to call POTUS a racist..pathetic especially as nobody agreed..
BBC is a disgrace ..and still haven’t played the full quote

James – you should have heard the toxic Evan Davis (R4) trying to publicly bully/browbeat Nad Zahawi into admitting that the Conservative party was full of ‘racists’ (having finished his anti-Trump duties). It was a thing to behold…
I think we are currently seeing R4 swinging way over to the ‘left’, in the face of Boris taking over. The ‘impartiality’ narrative is being ditched, big time. The lunchtime Mardell theme was that Javid should become Chancellor, so that’s the plan…
True arrogance knows no bounds.

“Police Appeal for Witnesses” – (Stevenage 2 car crash last night)so says the headlines in the 7pm news.
Well, how many more do they want ? according to other news reports they have 130 witness statements so far. Can the population of Stevenage please form an orderly queue, as the local police don’t really trust the views of those 130 already interviewed. 🙂

Quite likely – the swamp in action
This all dovetails rather conveniently with Treacherous Theresas signing last year of the UN ” Migration Compact” and of course Javid (who did rather nicely thanks to an education which we all helped pay for) is setting himself up as the smiling “assassin” who will teach all of us old racists a lesson we wont forget.
I am sorry Savid you were told to go back home at school or whatever – but kids are always nasty and have probably all grown up now – just a pity you have not.

Apparently, she wasn’t killing enough babies.
Why do they call their name “Planned Parenthood”?
Shouldn’t it be called “Planned Abortions”?

a somewhat delayed TWatO Watch #1 and only
Bizarrely, TWatO covered the centenary of the Luton Riot where returned servicemen were excluded from celebrations for the end of WW1.
Strange that Radio4 completely missed the centenary of the signing of the Treaty of Versailles which ended World War One but remembered and commemorated that event in Luton.

Have been listening to Any Questions on R4. (8.02 pm on)
Just discovered there’s a stacked audience.
Off switch in protest.

Up2snuff, I agree with you … and I listen to this exercise in pseudo-democracy less and less. “Any Answers” is better, though not perfect, because there’s more balance thanks to the callers. ‘Thoughtful’, who posts here, has been on it at least twice!
I think “Any Questions” would be better without an audience. Modern communications mean that people could send in questions by e-mail or text or even phone them in to a call-handling facility.
The panel could then have a civilized discussion and time would not be wasted on applause from organized ‘claques’ strategically positioned near to the microphones. The temptation for panel members to play to the gallery (of noisy Leftists) would also be reduced. The intimidation of those with unfashionable conservative views might be reduced.
Some audiences are better than others and J Dimbleby did once admit that they can be biased because, unlike “Question Time” on TV, it’s a case of ‘first come, first serve’ rather than a (scientifically?) selected studio audience. J Dimbleby has now gone but the format needs a shake up.

Mustapha, long time no read. Welcome back. I often found with Any Answers, pre-Anita Anand, that the listeners contributions were better than those of the Panel. Guess that would be the case, esp. if Thoughtful was involved.
The Dimbleby used to apologise on a regular basis for ‘stacked’ audiences but I think the Beeb were not to unhappy at the bias in the applause.
You have a good idea there. It would certainly suit a NetZero lifestyle for the UK. No need to travel a Chair, Panel, engineers and audience around the UK.

There’s a dangerous heatwave coming for a part of the globe, this unnamed BBC author tells us.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-49049378
Temperatures are expected to hit 40°C (104°F) this weekend.
I have news for the BBC. Temperatures of 45°C+ are routine for the Midwest and southern Central Canada in summer. In winter in those locations, temperatures are equally excessively low. Across the whole USA even more so. This chart, courtesy of Wiki is rather revealing about AGW, CC, etc..

I expect the BBC will be at the best neutral over the oil tanker being
“taken” by Iran. But it wouldn’t surprise me if they actually
supported Iran.

While the Iranians nab a British tanker, the bbc presents ‘Any Questions?’ in Melton. The predictable bias runs riot: the first two questions are attempts to denigrate and connect Trump and Boris. The beeb has somehow managed to locate lefty questioners (surprise?) and a howling, lefty mob for an audience. In Melton & Rutland, apparently 56% LEAVE!!! Only the bbc could manage that!
Needless to say, all 4 panellists hasten to assure us they think Trump is a racist. The loud-mouthed stars of the show are Jess Phillips (Lab) and somebody Wishart SNP.
Question 3 is a further attempt to discredit the Tories: OBR pessimism. Phillips is having a field day.
When it comes to figuring out why there are a high level of child mental health problems, the two stars suddenly turn out to be clueless. As soon as anything slightly more deep and complex arrives, their loud-mouthed, self-assured and superficial sloganeering runs dry.
Meanwhile, the tanker floats away into the sunset…
NO QUESTIONS.

taffman- your question would have been too difficult for the luvvies gathered at Melton, i suspect!
(Past governments may also have found ‘defence’ to be not trendy and also uncool. Not focused on ‘inequality’, ‘diversity’ and ‘social justice’ loud enough. Not enough ‘openness’ and ‘tolerance’! So they neglected it. No prizes for guessing that THAT will come back to bite you in the posterior, big time, what with not EVERYONE being quite so wild about tolerance…)

Guido ( sadly ) reports that The Guardian is to formally apologise to Isabel Oakeshotte the reporter who broke the UK ambo story for defaming her last week . The lefty rag is also to pay her 5 figure compensation .
It’s a shame it didn’t go to court where the rag could have been shredded and with a bit of luck bankrupted.
