    I think he’s upset

    “Veteran investigative journalist John Sweeney called Tommy Robinson a “c***” as he announced his departure from the BBC.

    “I’m sorry our BBC Panorama on Tommy Robinson wasn’t broadcast,” Mr Sweeney wrote on Twitter, referring to a planned edition of the programme that was not broadcast about the English Defence League.

    It was cancelled after Robinson, whose real name is Stephen Yaxley-Lennon, covertly filmed Mr Sweeney and made a rival “documentary”.

    Mr Sweeney added: “So after 17 years I can finally say these are not the views of the BBC but he’s a complete c**t.””

      Celtic_Mist,

      What I want to know is whether it was Sweeney’s decision to leave or whether he was pushed. If the latter, it took them 7 months to eject him.. The BBC really does look after its own, at the expense of everyone else.

      I recall that as Tommy Robinson was preparing to leave the studio, having shown Sweeney what he had on him in that video, Sweeney put his arm around him in a friendly fashion. Perhaps he was hoping a conciliatory gesture would prevent the train smash to his career he could foresee would be coming if Tommy broadcast the video.

      If so, that apparently didn’t work.

      The new Boris deal, at least the details currently revealed is NOT Brexit.
      So it needs to be part of a temporary ploy to bring about leaving with no deal.
      Or else.

    TWatO Watch #1 – A rich seam to be mined

    Government has announced extra spending for schools in England. A large amount. IIRC, about equivalent of 7p in £1 on income tax. The BBC have to rubbish this figure. “It is NOT enough!”

    Emma-Jane Kirby has been at a school in Birmingham, Bellfield, on a long-term assignment there. She has a bad habit as a BBC reporter: she doesn’t listen to answers and doesn’t think about what she is being told.

    The Head tells us (pupil roster 315) that he has to spend £100,000 per annum on pastoral care for his pupils. Emma Jane should have been getting ready to do some maths at that point. “How many pupil home visits do you have to make a week?” Answer, IIRC: 2-3. Therefore £100,000 ÷ (39 x , say, 3) = £850+!

    At that point Emma Jane might ask whether the Pastoral Care teacher uses her own Rolls Royce or the school’s own one, reserved specially for the purpose.

    But she didn’t.

    No challenge to the bottomless pit concept of BBC taxpayer funding for everything.

    It STILL isn’t enough.

      Agree with your general point about the Maths of the above case.
      But to be fair it is worth saying that increasingly schools are getting dumped on for carrying out duties that used to be the preserve of police, NHS, and social services. Just teaching stuff to kids no longer cuts it.
      The latest ‘issue’ is the Mental Health of pupils- now cemented into the school’s responsibility by the new OFSTED framework; which in part stems from the pernicious effects of social media on young impressionable adolescents. Or as Jeremy Corbyn would call them when it suits him, responsible young people who deserve the vote.

    The humanity hating Soros is now ‘banned’ from six countries.

    During the ‘Cold War’, I always asserted that any invasion of the US, even in the unlikely event of their armed forces being totally wiped out, the invaders would have to contend with large numbers of the population bearing arms. This is still the case of course, but the Lefty/Globalist/Marxists are aware of the same problem to their plans so they are tackling it a different way – changing the 2nd Amendment.
    https://link.breitbart.com/view/5d13d2e7fc942d626cc36155au6q0.19j3/92c8a145
    A month or so ago I reported on ‘Arabella’ and in that item, it made specific reference to significant Soros funded parts of Arabella. Regret I can’t find the same article now but there, nevertheless, it goes to prove how evil this man is and the extent to which he is prepared to go to change the World.
    Unlike the US, the UK population is already emasculated and incapable of defending itself by legislation which, I’m sure we could find, legislation that was pursued vigorously by ‘pressure groups’ financed by the same man. Pure evil.

    The Rbc hate British values so much they are letting the SNP ..literally-away with murder. I refer to the deaths at a new hospital in Glasgow where poor ventilation let some disease caused by pigeons into the ventilation system.
    Let’s just say their mask has slipped so far now that blatant England hatred is spewing out of them and that this and deflection tactics such as the ” no spanking ban ” for children is in play.

    The number of fellow Scots now share a growing majority
    that these collection of misfits do not represent the people of Scotland……….

    And if I was one of the Senior English judges whose reputation was sullied by the upholding of their Scottish counterparts appeal by that collection of waxworks at the Supreme Court…..I would be plotting revenge….

    PS Lord Carloway the senior Scottish waxwork was the guy who facilitated a precedent for the HMRC overturning the verdicts of 2 divisional courts …..upheld by the Supreme Waxworks….and paving the way for what now known as the Loan Charge…..a retrospective shift of the goalposts where some 50,000 people are now being pursued by HMRC for retrospective claims from a process which most thought was legal.

    Another swamp that needs draining.

      Yes this hatred of the English demonstrated by the SNP is disturbing.
      I went to boarding school in Scotland in the late 1950’s until early 1960’s. When I was there we had pupils from all over the world but the majority were a mixture of Scots and English (the late Jim Brogan of Celtic and Scotland and Sir Frank Williams to mention two) . There was never any Scots v English problems. We were all just young boys who lived, studied and played in our school and we chose our friends by those we got on with regardless of nationality. How much better would our Parliament be if that ethos was present.

        I was once drinking alone in a bar/club in Edinburgh, when a heavily tattooed man, with several piercings in his face, walked directly over to me. I thought he was going to have a pop, but he was actually one of the nicest people I’ve ever met. He Insisted that I should not sit drinking alone and introduced me to his family and friends. He had no ulterior motives and I had one of the best nights out ever. I would go so far as to say that I have seldom had a night up there where I have not made friends with people of all ages.

    .. apparently African people are so inept that their governments let down pregnant women ..and it’s up to you whitety to give your money to this charity, which will use it to advertise to African women , that there are maternity hotels next to hospitals in the cjty where vulnerable women can stay before they give birth instead of dying on a journey to hospital from a remote village.
    The ad contained an emotional blackmail tale of one such woman who already had 3 kids but on the fourth had complications so died after villagers carried her 30Km.

    Instant response from the BBC News website. The headline has shifted to:

    ‘Who’s got it worse – Johnson or Trump?’…

    The rest of the story remains the same.

    Arthur T3 October 2019 at 11:46

    This is still a loaded headline BBC. ‘Who’s got it worse – Johnson or Trump?’. Who’s got what worse? The premise from the BBC is that both are bad and the only debate is who is worse. Polling actually shows that both are popular in their respective countries. The BBC predisposition that both are bad is entirely false. Best bury the story altogether BBC – it doesn’t hold up, but it does demonstrate a bias against Johnson and Trump.

    The internet never forgets, BBC.

No I honestly think that most of them believe in the multi culty Utopia outlined by the likes of the Guardian and the foul BBC. If we plot the changes that have resulted from Islamic terrorist outrages over the past ten or twenty years the bulk of them have either restricted the host population’s ability to make their views known or to dissent from the liberal multi culty policy, or to have given special privileges to the RoPers. There has been zero pressure put on the Islamic community to cast out their extremists , to renounce the violent part of their creed or to conform to western values. Our leaders just rush around trying to appease the Muslims, give away our country and our customs, make it ever more difficult for ordinary Europeans to resist the encroachment of Islam into their daily lives. We need many more Orbans and Salvini .

On the basis of the coverage given aka ‘share of voice’ in marketingspeak, I am guessing about 20% of all males in the UK must be drag queens.

    ANOTHER ACCLAIMED CLIMATE SCIENTIST BREAKS RANKS: “OUR MODELS ARE MICKEY-MOUSE MOCKERIES OF THE REAL WORLD”

    “The models just become useless pieces of junk or worse (as they can produce gravely misleading output) when used for climate forecasting.”

    some UK cold records have fallen and here they are

    Craibstone, Scotland set a new teeth-chattering all-time daily low of 2.2C (36F) on Sept 02 which smashed the previous record of 4.4C (40F) set way back in 1934.

    Shawbury, Central England comfortably surpassed 2002’s Sept 08 record of 3.9C (39F) with a chilly 2.8C (37F).

    While Lyneham, Central England set a new low of 4.4C (40F) on Sept 08, busting the previous record of 6.1C (43F) from 2015.

    And Bournemouth, Southern England managed to tie its previous record lowest minimum temperature for Sept 08 set back in 2013 with a reading of 3.3C (38F).

    Here is the guy in question, and he is far from a ‘nobody’ he is a 25 year climate change PhD graduate working for one of the biggest climate modellers in the world, JAMSTEC. It’s easy for the media to ignore small fry academics, but this guy is a real big fish.

The better read we are the more we can fight the Marxist ideology (for the BBC it is all about Trotsky) but the end result is the same as it ever was… On one of those links, there is this page which aptly describes the problem of uncritical ‘GREEN’ thinking which is also ‘anti-environmental’….
      8. Why are the radical greens so anti-environmental?

      Dr. Patrick Moore, a co-founder and Past-President of Greenpeace, provided the answer decades ago. Moore observed that Eco-Extremism is the new ‘false-front’ for economic Marxists, who were discredited after the fall of the Soviet Union circa 1990 and took over the Green movement to further their political objectives. This is described in Moore’s essay, “Hard Choices for the Environmental Movement” written in 1994 – note “The Rise of Eco-Extremism”.

      For radical greens, it was never about the environment – the environment was a smokescreen for their extreme-left totalitarian political objectives. When radical green extremists take power, it will be ‘One Man, One Vote, Once’ – the end of democracy.

        Yes I read a lot of what Dr Patrick Moore has said about so called Climate Change- This following piece also clearly shoots much of what the Climate Change Political rascals are putting about, such unsupported claims, that only support big enterprises-disgracefully aided by a young school girl whose knowledge is debateable.
        Science is Too Valuable to be Hijacked by Politics
        Sadly, science has been corrupted for political purposes and hidden agendas. Charlatans, on a worldwide scale, have hijacked science to dupe, scare and manipulate the masses, for reasons that have more to do with global government and wealth re-distribution than any pure goal of advancing knowledge. The worst of those planet— wide charlatans are those that promote, advocate for and propagandize the fraud of man-caused global warming, AKA Climate Change. That includes most Western governments and virtually all of the environmentalists.
        But please consider. All the noise, chatter and propaganda about future rising earth temperatures are solely based on computer models. Although the climate scientists tell us that the computer model science is sound, they are lying through their teeth. The reason we know they are lying is because in 2007 the IPCC Working Group 1 (WG1) assessing the physical scientific aspects of the climate system said, in their own words, “we should recognize that we are dealing with a coupled nonlinear chaotic system, and therefore that the long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible.” The reader should focus on the part of the statement where it reads, “not possible.”…
        There are mounds of credible evidence from credible sources stating that government and environmental climate computer models are anything but accurate, simply because, “we are dealing with a coupled nonlinear chaotic system, and therefore that the long-term prediction of future climate states is not possible.” This statement comes from the IPCC Working Group. Those words did not come from Standard Oil, Exxon, BP, or Shell Oil Companies.
        As one meteorologist and also a Geologist have in fact stated that Climate Change has been happening for millions of years and that man’s intervention through its industrial development over the last 150 years is slight. Carbon dioxide is responsible for any of the slight warming of the global climate that has occurred during the past 300 years, since the peak of the Little Ice Age. If there were such a proof through testing and replication it would have been written down for all to see.The contention that human emissions are now the dominant influence on climate is simply a hypothesis, rather than a universally accepted scientific theory. But there is certainty beyond any doubt that CO2 is the building block for all life on Earth and that without its presence in the global atmosphere at a sufficient concentration, this would be a dead planet. Yet today our children and our publics are taught that CO2 is a toxic pollutant that will destroy life and bring civilization to its knees. The world’s top climate body, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change, is hopelessly conflicted by its makeup and its mandate.

      I gave up computer modelling using a Sinclair ZX81 in 1982 due to lack of memory. Local stars up to 16 light-years away, reduced to 13 light years. But I need the memory to make the stars move in a 3D environment. It was very simple. A white dot representing a star on a black background. Later I found out that others did not give up and made millions of pounds producing computer games.

      In Astronomy, computer simulations for planetary orbits are checked with observations in reverse or retrospective computer runs. Peter Lilly is known to have asked the morons about retrospective computer runs in climate science. The thick climate scientist concerned didn’t look as though he knew what Lilly was talking about. Before computers, Isaac Newton used past data to produce retrospective calculations that produced his theories.

      The BBC now uses computers to make Dr Who episodes much more believable than when I was a child. Computer models seem to be more believable to left-wing Liberals and children because they impress people who are ignorant of how computer models are produced.

      Weblink for that here. Peter Sissons’s, one of the old school and critical of the BBC ‘new wave’ of mediacrats, I just wish he had spoken out sooner. But then -when working at the BBC nobody can – until they regain sanity, and leave.

      ‘Peter retired from broadcasting in 2009 and was considered at the time to be one of the UK’s longest-serving news presenters.

      After retiring from BBC, Peter Sissons started writing his autobiography. His autobiography was titled “When One Door Closes” which is based on the critics of his former employer, the BBC. In the autobiography, he argued such topics as the organisational left-wing mindset and BBC having a bias towards New Labour, the United Nations, the European Union, environmental groups, ethnic minorities, Islam and women.’

      My ten year Mensa email forum archive of complaints about the BBC‘s censorship policy for climate science, scientists and scientific debate, mentions Sissons.

      “Two former BBC Journalists Michael Buerk and Peter Sissons explain why BBC Journalists who appear on our screens, seem to appear brainwashed and scientifically ignorant. They say that few show any curiosity about the science of Atmospheric Physics or Solar Astronomy, in fact the most important BBC journalists for this subject are not scientists but Environmentalists with degrees in the Arts and Humanities, Buerk and Sissons both had the intelligence given curiosity to do their own scientific investigations, and found that the hypothesis does not have the scientific proof for its core questions in the Scientific literature, and ignores the contribution of Astronomy”

      The BBC successfully hid this ten part story below from the mainstream media, but its known that Whittingdale was informed:

      (1) The BBC mislead the audience by leaving out the fact that Ice Core data shows that CO2 levels rise about 800 years after Global temperatures rise.
      (2) The BBC continues to use statements withdrawn by the Royal Society on the insistence of the fellows.
      (3) The most blatantly biased statement by the BBC said that “Anthropogenic Global Warming is a fact” the IPCC using an assumption says “very likely” and the BBC which claims to be impartial says “fact“. This also does not come from the Royal Society. This evidence proves that the BBC takes a more extremely Biased view than the IPCC or the Royal Society and conflicts with the BBC Trusts claim that impartiality is important.
      (4) This also now leaves open the possibility of legal action by Mensa members against the BBC Trust which has continually refused freedom of information requests for details of how this decision was made by what the BBC calls “the best scientific experts“. Legal action was not taken because other sources revealed the “28 Gate” scandal at the BBC, which revealed that these so called experts were actually scientifically unqualified Environmental activists, not Atmospheric Physicists.
      (5) The senior scientific advisor for the BBC documentary “Hot Planet” was Professor Peter Cox. The BBC has had trouble with Professor Cox regarding the predictions of a Barbecue Summer and Mild Winters and his prominent role in the Climategate Scandal and with the IPCC. Professor Cox was a Computer Modeller, not an Atmospheric Physicist.
      (6) The BBC Editorial Complaints Unit Director told a Mensa member that the BBC does not have any scientific investigative journalists in its employ.
      (7) The complaint remained in a twilight zone, the BBC unable to either uphold, or reject the complaint for fear of legal action by Mensa members. Finally after a most amazing excuse that although the evidence that the BBC is overtly biased was provided to a member by the BBC in its communications, it was not mentioned or referred to in the BBC Trust Editorial Standards Committee’s finding. That is like saying we know we are biased but you can not take legal action against us because we will not include this in the monthly bulletin of the BBC Trusts Findings.
      (8) The chairman of the Media, Culture and Sport Select Committee, Mensa member, John Whittingdale, who studied Astronomy at university, said that the BBC had a ‘failure of management at every level’ and that there was ‘something fundamentally wrong with the BBC management structure’.
      (9) Whittingdale launched an independent review of the BBC’s governance and regulation by Sir David Clementi who made proposals on how to replace the BBC Trust and Complaints process.
      (10) The BBC Trust which included Richard Ayre, a thick lefty qualified in Marxist Philosophy, Sonita Alleyne, a thick lefty qualified in Marxist Philosophy, Nick Prettejohn a thick lefty qualified in Marxist Philosophy and Bill Matthews, a thick lefty qualified in the Humanities, was abolished on 2 April 2017.

      That is supposed to have solved the problem?

      Taff,

      I’m North of this border, the one that so many seem to be under the impression doesn’t already exist, and neither I nor most of the people I know care if there is a hard border or not.

      The BBC especially however seem to think that Varadkar, aided by the overwhelmingly Irish Nationalist/ EU representative body spokespeople/ shills in the CBI, Retailers, FTA, Unions, and their sycophantic selves, speak for me and about a million others. They don’t, their driving force is primarily a hatred of all things British, and they are being unfairly indulged in a sort of media- sanctioned constitutional land-grab, as if a never before independently governed “united” Ireland already exists.

      The lack of any consideration or credence to the opinions of the pro-British majority in NI by the MSM at the minute is increasingly infuriating – goading, dismissive and arrogant – but not surprising. It is a dangerous cage to rattle though.

      Varadkar and his chums are more than a little carried away with themselves, their sense of entitlement misplaced. Perhaps a discussion with regards to the Common Travel Area between the UK and Ireland, nothing to do with the EU, might help him get things back into perspective?

      By the way, I’ve no idea how this comment ended up here, I’m replying to the comment posted by Taffman below.

    Pressures of work, a recent big demo, suicides, nothing is known about motives, no name given, not thought to be terrorist related, nothing to do with islam… the killings could have happened anywhere – a factory, a hospital, a farm. The police link was coincidental…

    Lies. His name HAS been announced, and he was a recent convert to islam.

    Furthermore, according to Le Figaro:

    “Some say that the attacker, converted to Islam eighteen months ago, was summoned by his head for an interview about why he no longer greeted women.”

    And the DM:

    Deaf ‘Islamic convert’ is named as Paris police HQ attacker: IT worker who fell out with supervisor ‘over dealing with women’ slaughters four colleagues, including female officer, with a knife before being shot dead.

    A muslim with a woman problem – now there’s a surprise. It’s starting to sound like it had everything to do with islam.

    Al-beeb will no doubt wait until the story has slid way down the page before giving more relevant information, if at all.

      The environmental impact of people varies enormously across the world, whether the metrics are for CO2 (aka ‘the Gas of Life”) or things with a real impact, such as consumption of electricity, oil, gas, water and production of sewage, food waste, nitrous oxides and so on. As Taffman points out, when a person moves from a (largely rural) Third World country to a modern (industrialised) country, they adopt the lifestyle and their consumption increases accordingly. Various studies have found that – depending on the to and from destinations – this can be a ten-fold increase or greater. Given this is the case, any so-called environmentalist or Green politician who isn’t fundamentally opposed to migration is either a hypocrite, working to some other undeclared agenda or simply plain stupid.
