With 64 days to go until Brexit it might be worth reminding the BBC that
270 voting areas voted leave – 406 constituencies
129 voting areas voted remain – 242 constituencies
Figures made unfamiliar by the biased MSM and worth remembering when traitors in the Bubble attempt to deny democracy.
Oh am I first…..

Why is it the BBC love to “fact check” the likes of Boris and his pork pie , Dominic Raab and what he may or may not have said during Brexit campaigning, Nigel Farage, Donald Trump on every word they utter, the wording on the Brexit bus. And seemingly take great satisfaction from it !!!
BUT , never , ever pull up Corbyn, Mcdonnell, Abbott, Soubry, Lammy, Bercow , Swinson etc about anything at all ??? Constant , free reign , unchallenged , time after time on the Beeb.
Funny that. It’s almost as if you could sense a Left wing bias at the BBC !!!

When they used to have revolutions in banana republics in the fifties and sixties the first thing the insurgents did was to seize control of the local radio station. They then broadcast fake news and propaganda and the established regime simply couldn’t get their own message out. Whilst the advent of new technology has made this method of operation less effective many people still get their news from the BBC. We on this site know the corporation is completely biased to the point of lying both by omission and commission , many don’t and still believe the BBC news. Getting rid of the state funded BBC would be just as great a blow for freedom as Brexit itself.

I love the BBC ‘Brexit Experts’ that are interviewed that nobody has heard of. This morning’s ‘expert’ on Toady actually said that landlords would sell up and “run away with the money” (sic).
I like it when somebody actually questions an “expert’s” facts. It doesn’t happen often on the BBC but when it does, it’s quite funny.

Apparently anti government newspapers are losing revenue as advertisers go elsewhere.
What tickled me the most was the beeboid was upset by a word I have never heard before but needs a wider audience. An Indian government minister called some journalists PRESSTITUTES

The power does not realy lie in Brussels with a load of old croakes but with the enormously wealthy famillies who control the world. The likes of Rothschild whose family operates all the central banks in Europe, and most of the USA as well as other parts of the world, its tenticles stretch everywhere. There are just a dozen or so such famillies that control all, every major international conglomerate, governments, secret services world wide-FBI and CIA instruments of the global elite-Rockefeller directly involved in the founding of both organisations. They have had control of most of all oil production since 1928 and Onassis was the shipping magnate who built the largest oil tankers in the world at that time. Interesting to note that in WW2 every Greek Ship was sunk, except those ships belonging to Onassis. How could his ships sail down every war zone without being attacked? For this to happen agreement at the highest level was necessary. With such power whatever suits at the time can be arranged whether it be the future of the European Union or even Brexit-mind you the UK’s decison to Leave took even them by surprise. Yes Brussels are flailing about somewhat desperately as the rope is tightened to strangle out the end of the EU as is now known.

“”Palestinian conflict: Diaries of childhood in Israeli military detention””
Reporter: Megha Mohan
Director/Producer: Yousef Eldin
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-middle-east-49484690/palestinian-conflict-diaries-of-childhood-in-israeli-military-detention
The video has the typical victim bias that the BBC favour. Slow tinkly piano music and you know straight away that the Jews are the bad guys. Holocaust interview style in reverse. Sympathetic interviews with the detained teenage Arabs who allege inconveniences such as not being fed on the day of their arrest. Visiting parents complain that security beeps at checkpoints feel like torture.
An Israeli prosecutor stated that all interviews are videoed and the allegations of being forced to sign confessions in Hebrew(!) are false. But the BBC’s Megha Mohan won’t let go, in that slow monotone croaky voice drawl that far left women favour. No ‘gotcha’ moment but hey, she and the Director Yousef Eldin are safely beyond criticism from the BBC.
Author Mega Mohen is far Left and a regular BBC contributor. From her website:
“As of September 2018, Megha Mohan is the BBC’s first ‘Gender and Identity’ Correspondent.
Prior to that she was a senior multimedia staff reporter at the BBC’s Digital Current Affairs department. There, she told stories on subcultures across Asia, Africa, the US and Europe, with a focus on gender.
Her original reports include the influence of the Alt-Right in global politics, the War on Drugs in the Philippines, the billion dollar livestreaming industry in China, meme culture in India, women in North Korea’s army, political instability in DR Congo, and the spread of propaganda and misinformation in Burundi.
She regularly appears on BBC News TV, the World Service and Radio 4.
Prior to joining the BBC, she spent extensive time working in the Great Lakes in Africa.”

Perhaps us of the older generation should give this reminder to the youger generation:-
Senior Citizens are constantly beign criticised for every conceivable deficiency of the modern world, real or imaginary. We know we take responsibility for all we have done and do not blame others.
HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would like to point out that it was NOT the senior citizens who took:
The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of family,
The learning out of education,
The service out patriotism,
The Golden Ruel from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behaviour,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement or God out of government and school.
And we certainly are NOT the ones who eliminated patience and tolerance for personal relationships and interactions with others.
We most certainly understand the meaning of patriotism, and remember those who fought so bravely and died for our country in both world wars.

The young angry students and militant feminists who wanted to tear down the system and smash the patriarchy. Tony Blair aged 66, Peter Tatchell 67, Germaine Greer 80, Richard Branson 69 for example. The first generation baby boomers are the people have had control of the government, culture and financial policies of the western world for the last 30 years and have brought us to this point.

This 70 year old and 99% of my generation is not responsible for taking “The Civility Out Of Behaviour”. Our parents raised us to say please and thank you, were taught to behave ourselves in company, were taught right from wrong, learned table manners, we respected our teachers and those in authority, and certainly would not use foul language in their presence – even men back then didn’t swear in front of a woman.
So, can you argue with any of that ? because as a result of that upbringing, those that are 60+ have all turned out to be pretty decent people. I’m not including any of those in power who actually have brought shame to the baby boomer generation ie Corbyn and McDonnell, but every generation have their pigs in poke !

Oh, you got it from BBC Online News. Very wise!
It would be quite advisable not to tune in to the BBC now — your TV may melt down!
As for Sky News, it was presumably the very anti-Brexit Beth Rigby who interviewed Boris Johnson and said something about “your critics” (be honest, Beth, you are with the critics) calling suspending Parliament an “insult to democracy”. Pah!
Btw, perhaps I should admit I did switch to BBC, just to confirm my suspicions, you know. And guess what, their reporter was in such a state she couldn’t even get the location of the lady she was interviewing correct. She guessed, “Edinburgh”, and got the reply, “Aberdeen, actually”. (Or it could have been the other way round — I didn’t really register as I was fumbling for the off switch).

On radio bbc Newcastle this morning when the news of proroguing Parliament was breaking they had 2 people on to interview.
The first, a remainer university teacher(?) who was outraged against this affront to parliamentary democracy.
The second, a labour remainer mp who was outraged at this affront to parliamentary democracy.
Both given uninterrupted time to tell us how bad this was and how it was against ‘parliamentary’ democracy.
They couldn’t say “democracy” because the majority voted out. It’s just because most of the MPs want to be ruled by Brussels so the majority IN PARLIAMENT ONLY is to remain.
That’s the difference between democracy (17.4 million votes to leave) and parliamentary democracy (fewer than 500 who want to stay under eu rule)
They came up with the usual “nobody voted for…” and the “ ….. wasn’t on the referendum”. You all know their usual ‘arguments.
They are outraged at this closing of Parliament yet are perfectly happy with the remainer Bercow playing fast and loose with all parliamentary procedures.
All the remain stream media have been going completely over the top since Boris took over from remainer May. It’s embarrasing how biased they all are.
Enough.
Where is the one MSM broadcaster that sees what 17.4 million of us (probably many more now) see, all the positives of being free of this lumbering bloc.
I’m so sick of the constant whingeing from the remainers with the MSM all pushing their remain agenda, led by the bbc.

Instead they are doing the things Mrs May should have been doing if she hadn’t spent her time lieing about “Brexit means Brexit “ .

Comment on Guido Fawkes:-
To paraphrase Bomber Harris
“The Remainers entered this Parliament under the rather childish delusion that they were going to use Parliamentary procedures to stop everyone else, and nobody was going to use Parliamentary procedures to stop them. At Westminster they put their rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind, and now they are going to reap the whirlwind.”

Laura Kuenssberg: PM’s suspension move decisive and intensely risky
”This has been an extraordinarily long Parliamentary session, and governments have the right to shut up shop and return to announce their proposals in a new one with all the golden carriages, fancy Westminster costumes, banging of doors and splendour that goes with it.
But that new timetable means Parliament will be suspended for longer than had been expected – likely now to be prorogued, to use the technical term, around 10 September, instead of going into recess on 14 September ahead of conference season.
It’s only a matter of days. But those are days that might matter enormously, because the crucial and controversial political side effect is that MPs will have less time to try to change the law to stop Boris Johnson taking the UK out of the EU if he can’t agree a new deal with Brussels by the end of October.”
Translation:
”This has been a terrible long parliamentary session as yet no one has yet stopped Brexit. Now our faithful MPs who are doing everything that they can to stop this Brexit will have less time to do anything about it.
Here at the BBC this is bad news as we do not wish for the UK to leave without a deal as aside from the mass starvation that we expect everyone to face, we will no longer get as much finding that puts our BBC employees at risk. We do not like being proven wrong and it frustrates us that our scaremongering towards the public no longer works.”

There’s much to be pessimistic about but luckily all the moves Boris makes are not on that long list. And although it might be cynical to suggest that all his plans are based on nullifying the Brexit Party – just as Cameron’s referendum was calculated to nullify UKIP – that would be both cynical and pessimistic. But luckily, we don’t think that way. Do we?

Well the Brexit Party would have no existed had we actually left the EU in March. Farage had warned about the party with the intention of standing in the EU election which he ultimately won. The Brexit Party was in some ways a protest vote were warning shots had been fired from Tory and Labour leave voters and a few moving from UKIP with the hope of the new party getting more ground.
A lot of those warning shots hit May and thus she resigned. Johnson now has the chance to avoid any more shots but the guns are there ready, just in case.
As for Corbyn he has had many more shots hit him yet he refuses to go down. Quite pathetic really

Bercow whinging !!! LOL. Have a taste of your own medicine sonny jim !! Well done Boris , well done indeed.
The government has asked the Queen to suspend Parliament just days after MPs return to work in September – and only a few weeks before the Brexit deadline.
Boris Johnson said a Queen’s Speech would take place after the suspension, on 14 October, to outline his “very exciting agenda”.
But it means the time MPs have to pass laws to stop a no-deal Brexit on 31 October would be cut.
House of Commons Speaker John Bercow said it was a “constitutional outrage”.
The speaker, who does not traditionally comment on political announcements, continued: “However it is dressed up, it is blindingly obvious that the purpose of [suspending Parliament] now would be to stop [MPs] debating Brexit and performing its duty in shaping a course for the country.”
It would be “an offence against the democratic process and the rights of Parliamentarians as the people’s elected representatives”, he added.
Oh and the other 2 plebs …… Grieve and Hammond … full on MELTDOWN…. what a great day !!!
‘Utterly scandalous’
Mr Grieve – a former attorney general – told BBC Radio 5 Live: “If the prime minister persists with this and doesn’t back off, then I think the chances are that his administration will collapse.
“There is plenty of time to do that if necessary [and] I will certainly vote to bring down a Conservative government that persists in a course of action which is so unconstitutional.”
Former Tory chancellor Philip Hammond called it “profoundly undemocratic”

It would be better is people just stated their opinion . But that’s me .
As for what Boris is proposing . I’m guessing the Queen must have known the formal request was coming so that she would not be in an embarrassing position to say ‘ no’ if that is her view .
It would be good if we could evidence the attitude of the BBC MSM in such dramatic circumstances.

The purpose of the stream of Tweets is to demonstrate the BBC’s Bercow-like impartiality. I’m not sure how else one could list this, unless Twitter bias is off limits here. Personally, I find the BBC’s Twitter bias to be most enlightening as they tend to let their guard down.
As for the Queen, I can’t imagine this wasn’t discussed and agreed beforehand so as to do it in a manner that keeps her out of the politics. There is a Tweet from the BBC conceding that she has no option but to comply here, but in the spirit of cooperation I shan’t post it. ????

Twitter source material is often hard to decode. If Jacob Rees-Mogg, (heaven forbid!) tweeted “Boris!” presumably he would mean something different than if Jess Phillips tweeted “Boris!”. If Mark Eaton re-tweeted JR-M would that be approval or sarcasm? What if he re-tweeted JP?

7 of the 10 tweets were heavily against Brexit
In a country of 60 million people the tweets got few likes

Corbyn has been rather slow today. The Eurosceptic who would likely agree with Brexit has been struggling to hold both sides together and thus finally came out with his response. ‘Undemocratic’ or something.
Rich coming from the man who has tried to trip Johnson up since day one.

Classic line from Magid Madid
“The big problem is those politicians don’t reflect the people they are supposed to represent”
He’s on Vine on Radio2 doing his story about being chucked out of the European parliament building, cos he was a black guy in a T-shirt ..and they nevr asked him if he was an MEP
It’s an olld story now but Vine is giving him a PR slot
Magid has now just blamed Farage for spreading division
… that is projection

Wait. The problem is politicians not reflecting the people they represent, yet when Farage does just that he’s spreading hate?
Lefty translation: “spreading hate” = “I don’t have a rational argument to counter that point”

They didn’t mention the context that the T-shirt had swearing on.
Does him turning up in parliament in a sweary T-shirt reflect the #SHEFFIELD people he is supposed to represent ?
Follow the BBC link and you see they don’t use a photo of him in Brussels
they instead use an older photo of him in Sheffield
..wonder why ? /sarc

I’ve weaned myself off all BBC TV/Radio but dropped in just now to R5 to hear Shami Chakrabarti given plenty of time to call Boris’ move undemocratic, unconstitutional and “un-British”.
No doubt Shami’s concerned about upholding the great traditions of this country like making a mockery of the voting system.
Ah now Nihal’s on with stories of adoption and photos unearthed of a gay marriage in 1957 Philadelphia…

I heard Shameless Shammi wittering on about Boris’ lack of honesty, decency and truth. The words felt dirty coming out of her mouth after her investigation into anti semitism, which found there was absolutely no evidence of it in The Labour Party.
“Jeremy Corbyn announced her (Chakrabarti) as the only Labour appointment to the House of Lords in August 2016, which some Labour MPs said undermined the credibility of the anti semitism inquiry she had led.
The Community Security Trust, which monitors anti semitism in Britain, said the move was “a shameless kick in the teeth for all who put hope in her now wholly compromised inquiry into Labour antisemitism”.
Marie van der Zyl, vice-president of the Board of Deputies of British Jews, called it a “whitewash for peerages scandal.” When asked about the appointment, a spokesman for Corbyn said that Chakrabarti was “an ideal appointment to the Lords”.

On 6 September 2016, Chakrabarti was created a life peer (despite only being a member of The Labour Party for five months) as Baroness Chakrabarti, of Kennington in the London Borough of Lambeth.

Pro Brexit- 15 seconds from Peter Bone
Project fear, doom and hloom, anti Brexit, 15 minutes and counting from everyone the smarmy BBC can dredge up.
We even had, with no irony, coverage of Anna Soubry talking about democracy !!!!!! Hahahahahaha.
And of course the ‘opposed to leaving without a deal’ described people are never, absolutely never challenged for the ‘opposed to leaving full stop’ crowd they really are.
Totally appalling. But having done my research, the off switch was quite a blessing.

The BBC… (B)eelzebub’s (B)roadcasting (C)orporation
For those unfamiliar with this figure, in the Old Testament Beelzebub (or, more properly, Baalzebub) was the name of the Philistine god associated with the city of Ekron in southwestern Canaan. Other names attributed to him were dung god, prince of devils, and lord of the flies (probably because of the association with dung). By the time of Christ, the name had become explicitly associated with Satan, the prince of demons. It may be remembered that the Pharisees famously accused Jesus of casting out demons in the name of Beelzebub (Mt 10:25; Lk 11:14-28), a charge categorically denied by Jesus, who pointed out the logical absurdity of anyone attempting to cast our devils by invoking the name of the head devil waging an unremitting battle to seize control. So Beelzebub, the father of lies, is the enemy of Christ. Which brings us to the BBC Last week, in its supposedly flagship (one and only) Christian programme, Songs of Praise, the BBC saw fit to include a same sex marriage ceremony between two men, who were ‘married’ in Rutherglen United Reformed Church near Glasgow. This occurred regardless of the fact the Bible prohibits any and all sex outside marriage, laid down as between one man and one woman for life, for their mutual support and encouragement, and for the bringing up of any children that may result from their union. Biblical doctrine could not be clearer – all sex outside marriage is prohibited – as are non-heterosexual marriage services by all mainstream denominations, including the Church of England, the Church of Wales, and the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that worldwide traditional believers are united in condemnation of this demonically inspired push to recast Christian belief.
Which says a lot about the BBC. Because, in its wisdom and commitment to ‘diversity’, it has chosen to over-rule this core doctrine of Christianity in favour of what it clearly sees as a more acceptable form of liberal faith. In response to howls of outrage from concerned Christians across the nation, it says self-righteously, ‘Songs of Praise tells the stories of Christians across all denominations in the UK and, in so doing, aims to reflect the balance of opinions on different issues.’ But only certain opinions, it appears. The arrogance of such a stance, claiming the right to redefine what Christians are permitted to believe, is staggering. Indeed, the conclusion is inescapable that in 21st century Britain the BBC has become no more than an ideological tool for promoting an agenda hostile to Christianity; and doing so deviously – not in open opposition, but by rewriting doctrine, so that it appears to conform to its agenda. This is blatant social engineering at its worst, and goes far beyond the remit of the BBC as laid down in its Charter, renewed in December 2016.
It is, in fact, increasingly clear that we are in an ideological war, with Christianity under unremitting and vicious attack. Beelzebub is taking control and is challenging the Christian heritage and values of our nation.
Please sign our new petition to the the Rt Hon Micky Morgan MP, Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, calling for urgent enquiry into the Governance of the BBC, and for removal of those responsible for this agenda-driven abuse.

PLUS (over in the US) the UN are busy on the next phase… that the BBC will use next…
If you have the energy support those in the US where the UN is trying to redefine the word ‘family’. The UN has a conference which we need to insist on the word ‘family’ is not dead yet. The aim to make abortion part of the ‘family’ of measures which the left advocate through the UN.
The UN are busy at work on a ‘UN Civil Society Declaration’ that will destroy a pro-life, pro-family perspective. Make it difficult for our children to have a ‘family’ and be encouraged to have abortions instead.
Sign here to support a US declaration to counter the UN “inclusivity” (non word) hypocrisy outlined above. Something the BBC are very well advanced on creating with its social engineering, here in the UK. Abolishment of the aspirations of ‘family’ are required to end ‘conservative’ values which they see as contradictory to Marxism.
They (UN) want ‘western democracy’ to collapse and global marxism to take over. A bit like Corby’s ‘Universal’ governance to create more ‘equal’ chaos to create a new marxist order. The BBC chips away at our democracy, our conservatism, our ‘family values’, and call it progress, equality, diversity and sexuality a ‘choice’. The end result is Agenda 21, leading to a rapid depopulation of western nations which can then be imposed (by so called financial ‘aid’ to poorer nations to embrace ‘Climate change’ and adopt abortion) as a human right. Not for the right of the unborn (which is a Christian ethic). The BBC likes to make fun of families, conservatism and our our ideas of nationhood and family and democracy and love of patriotism and ritual. All countries have it, that is why they want to destroy the family. It another step in the ‘abolish family’ agenda. Sign to protest and support us in the US:

I used to like voices as I worked in the kitchen, audio Potter’s Wheel. The little item on growing cocoa, or art in stained glass, etc, etc. The stuff that meant I knew a little about everything.
Now silence is golden. It is usually seconds before the off switch. This afternoons play involved a couple discussing having a baby. She wanted one, he didn’t. I remind you this was gleaned in seconds. Reasons for him to say ‘no’ was climate change (predictable) and they may be made redundant (her response was that if that was the case they could go on benefits). His final attempt at a reason not to have a child was ….the rise of the far Right. He could have said his concern that Corbyn could become Prime Minister or Macdonnell be in charge of the Treasury. He didn’t.
I switched off and dreamed of Boris!

Something multicultural involving an alleged refugee and something ‘ green ‘ .

Not BBC – but linked to all this woke nonsense.
Have just seen an African ‘woman’ defecating in the street by the side of a main road in SE London. Stopped the car and shouted at her “You can’t sh=t in the street. This isn’t Africa.” To which she showed no shame, nothing. Just had animal eyes.
As much as I tried, I could not get the image of a jungle savage and 2000 years of evolutionary difference from my mind. I was expecting her to pick up her pooh and throw it at me.

Coming to a town or city near you soon…………….
Pity the incident was not filmed and a copy sent to the Mayor of Londonistan.
By the way, if dazzer had his registration taken and a complaint made to the thought police, he can look forward to being arrested for his ‘hate speech’……………..

I thought the same thing too as I drove away. I even heard sirens a few minutes up the road and though “Oh my god, here we go”. I took a few side roads and doubled back to see if there was a swarm of police surrounding the animal but there was nothing but her.
I take it as a small victory. “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”

On my dear departed Mother’s soul, I saw it again. Still in SE London, east of Greenwich. This time an attractive 30s woman going to have a pee. She saw us outside my friends house and pulled her pants up and went back into her kitchen.
My friend tells me the is a common sight in most of SE London. The council estates are no-go. Knife crime is insanely high, robberies, everything you can imagine as happening in these sink estates mostly populated by Africa immigrants. White people that live there have given up. They have either moved/forced away, or dropped any concept of community. The rest have joined the immigrants in the free-for-all and are as bad if not worse than the immigrants.
Those videos on YouTube showing Paris slums and no-gos. I thought that was just sensationalism – but if any thing it is much much worse here.
We could not wait to escape the place – it was hell on Earth.

dazzer,
I wonder why all those TV adds to fund UK charities are mainly to feed ever growing Muslim families usually having 6-8 children per family and by that help finance Islamic nations to grow?
And why is it that the mothers of said skeleton children are usually seen to be fat or obese when watching said TV adds?
So we can’t blame moms like the one you saw doing “things” on the streets of London.
After all, they do need to expand their families and dispose of their waste on someones doorstep.

About a year ago I saw an African woman breastfeeding a baby in Euston station without any sort of covering whatsoever. Now I know that’s normal in Africa, but it isn’t normal in this country. But no-one was doing anything about it. The woman herself obviously didn’t realise there was anything wrong with it, because she was doing it as if it was the most normal thing in the world. The problem is not with her personally, but with the authorities in London who’ve completely given up trying to enforce British norms of behaviour.

Weird story about the founder of NAPAC that fights for people abused in childhood
He said “False allegations are pernicious and horrible but it is massively rare [for someone] to make these things up.”
and then when the Mail produces a story of police being called on him in 2008 when he was 50
… said ‘Ah well yeh I never mention that cos that person much younger than me, and a victim of sex abuse in childhood, lied about me forcing her to give me a BJ in 2008 cos we were all drunk and it was consensual’
