    @realDonaldTrump tweeted
    The degenerate Washington Post MADE UP the story about me asking Bill Barr to hold a news conference.
    Never happened, and there were no sources!

    Bill Barr did not decline my request to talk about Ukraine.
    The story was a Fake Washington Post con job with an “anonymous” source that doesn’t exist.
    Just read the Transcript.
    The Justice Department already ruled that the call was good.
    We don’t have freedom of the press!

    Based on the information released last night about the Fake Whistleblowers attorney, the Impeachment Hoax should be ended IMMEDIATELY!
    There is no case, except against the other side!

    “What did Hunter Biden do for the money?” @SenJohnKennedy
    A very good question. He and Sleepy Joe must testify!

      ….The LameStream Media, which is The Enemy of the People, is working overtime with made up stories in order to drive dissension and distrust!
      The story in the Amazon Washington Post, of course picked up by Fake News CNN,
      saying “President Trump asked for AG Barr to host a news conference clearing him on Ukraine,”
      is totally untrue and just another FAKE NEWS story with anonymous sources that don’t exist….

      Years ago, when Media was legitimate, people known as “Fact Checkers” would always call to check and see if a story was accurate.
      Nowadays they don’t use “Fact Checkers” anymore, they just write whatever they want!

    If anybody wants proof that the bbc are right wing just watch question time tonight.
    There will be somebody on that supports Brexit.
    Every week there is a brexit supporter.
    There’s the proof.

    Instead of only having 4 remainers on every show they should have 5
    If they think that only having 4 out of 5 remainers is getting it ‘just about right’ then they are wrong.

    Even with Fiona it still only makes it 5 remainers to one leaver.

    Totally right wing bbc.

    Still no-one, not even the Jewish Chronicle, asks that simple little question – why? Why has anti-Semitism become such an issue for the Labour party? What has so significantly changed to make people like Luciana Berger and Ian Austin resign? Is Tom Watson’s step down involved – or has that perhaps got more to do with inventive fat slob ‘Nick’?
    No doubt there will be an in-depth analysis on tonight’s Newsnight, or someone in the QT audience ask for answers.
    Or perhaps not.

      There are now near to 3 million Muslims in the UK, compared to fewer than 300,000 Jewish people. Thus, roughly ten Muslims for each Jew. So in demographic (and hence electoral) terms, it’s a ‘no-brainer’ if you’re Labour and decide that you can’t please both groups. This must be part of the equation.

    Being one of those awkward bastards who insist on hearing all sides of an argument before I condemn, I would very much like to know the views of the 13% of British Jews who do not consider Jeremy Corbyn to be antisemitic and why. What is a Semite? Aren’t the Arabs also Semites and I haven’t yet heard the Leader of the Opposition do any Arab bashing.? Perhaps the 13% are followers of the Jewish millionaire Sir George Soros, who seems to relish flooding Europe with African immigrants. I am confused.com and wish to become unconfused.
    By the way. Anybody who thinks that the BBC should be shut down and that Britain should leave the EU is OK by me.

      Lefty – I’m perplexed too. Yesterday Diane Abbot was being interviewed about anti semitism in the Labour Party . The Stanford hill Jewish community in her constituency support her – she claims . Is that true ? If so ‘why ‘?

      I’m pretty sure that ms abbot is sitting on a huge majority so the loss of a few thousand would t hurt her .

      The more I think about it the more I think the BBC is both anti Jewish and anti Christian . Yet pro Islam . .Why ? When Islam appears to treat women like dogs or breeding machines – completely against the ‘girl power’ the BBC is so enthusiastic about .
      As a non Jewish – non Muslim white chap I don’t get it .

        Fedup2, I think it’s all about race, not religion. BBC types don’t like religion, especially if it’s ours, but they are obsessed with race and in denial about their own inverted racism. It’s the brown and black skin of the majority of Muslims that gets them the free pass. If these were White people from Ulster or southern USA, the BBC would have no time for the same beliefs. Leftists can’t admit there are certain racial or cultural differences, they are in denial about it.

        Let’s hope this problem can get sorted without recourse to another war. The omens however, are not good but I remain optimistic. For the sake of my children and grandchildren I hope that any future UK government will support the culture that nurtured me and will not feel obliged to change it to accommodate the immigrants. It is the immigrant who must change to OUR culture not the other way around . If they cannot then they should leave. The alternative does not bear thinking about. In a few months time I shall reach the age of 80 years.
        Now, as to the EU, the REMAINERS crow that the LEAVERS are all old and hopefully will die before the next election but what they don’t admit is that old REMAINERS die as well. Also I am acquainted with quite a few young LEAVE voters so I don’t think REMAINERS can rely entirely on the youth vote.

    These very worrying anti Jewish attacks have been going on for some time in our once great capital. It’s over ten years since I left Londonistan and things were getting pretty nasty then.
    I remember a report on the local BBC news that covered the vandalism in several Jewish cemeteries in north London. The Beeb were all over it for a week until…
    One particular evening the young journalist who was covering this case was interviewing the policeman in charge.
    I’ll never forget it. The rookie reporter was almost salivating as he asked the cogent question; “Do you think this could be the work of the far right?” The copper thought for a while, looked rather reflective and replied carefully “From the descriptions we have of the suspects it seems highly unlikely.”
    And that was it. This was last report on the smashing of Jewish graves. We never found out who was responsible or what their motives were. The next evening I waited with bated breath to hear the latest installment, but the Beeb seemed to have completely lost interest.
    Can’t think why…

    Engineering is screwed:

    To coincide with Ada Lovelace Day (8 October) this year’s IET Young Woman Engineer (YWE) of the Year finalists have been announced. For the first time, we’ve added a new Gender Diversity Ambassador Award category to recognise an individual who has spent a large proportion of their career committed to addressing the gender imbalance within the profession. It’s incredibly important to me that our members, volunteers and staff feel valued and are able to be themselves. Equally, our actions reflect our membership base across the countries in which we operate. This new award aligns with our recently launched Equality, Diversity and Inclusion strategy. If you’d like to attend the Young Woman Engineer of the Year ceremony on 5 December 2019, please register via the IET website.

    Goodness knows why we ever needed a ‘Young Woman Engineer of the Year’, (usually won by a technician, not an engineer) but now we have ‘Gender Diversity’! Come on lads, a bit of ‘lippy’ and ze too can become YWEotY!

    Once upon a time good engineers built bridges, now bad engineers screw up society.

          Like you Deborah, I can’t stand the BBC any more, so don’t have anything to do with it, and thus don’t have any reason to post here any more (which is not a comment on this site, a lonely voice of reason in a world driven insane).

          Am not a fan of those series you mention, in fact, there is NOTHING at all on the BBC I want to watch… NOTHING. Ditching the licence fee wasn’t a quandary, it was just commonsense.

          I used to enjoy many of their documentaries, natural history and history especially, but these days, despite being a very tolerant person, I find I’m acutely turned off by the BBC’s choice of presenters (even old stalwarts like Attenborough have become unbearable bores) and the grinding of the same old, miserable PC/omnisexual/doomsday organ… droning on and on and on without end…like some demonic hurdy-gurdy we’re all expected to dance to.

          I’ve come to the conclusion that the BBC are the latest Ratner/Gilette, and are heading for a big shock when they realise that it’s much, much harder to repair a reputation ruined by taking your customers for granted, and treating them with condescension, than it ever was to build that reputation in the first place.

          Oh, and if the BBC imagine that they’re going to be saved by the spoilt Millenials they keep simpering around they’ve got another thing coming… dream on, grandma.

          I sometime try to work out what proportion of our posts are directly linked to the state broadcaster – I reckon a pretty good proportion – maybe 70% or more – and of course the problem is – like the nazism is copies – it permeates all aspects of life so its easy to go off subject – which I don’t mind – and I’m sure others don’t – except that it gives the occasional troll refugee from the Guardian website an opportunity to place sand in the oyster….

        FU2, I’ve avoided all telly news, current affairs (blatant propaganda) for the past three weeks. I feel so much better for it. I don’t need to watch this awful biased crap, I know what’s going to happen.
        Anyone I like is treated like a vile social pariah with ill concealed disdain. And pathetic (or ill informed) people like Owen Jones, Greta and Compo are cheered to the rafters.
        Question Time, Newsnight, The bloody Marr Show it’s all sooo predictable, incredibly irritating and bad for my soaring blood pressure.
        So these days it’s Talking Pictures, an old Midsomer Murders and the occasional Poirot.

          Quite a few gems on ‘talking pictures ‘ and their GG s form is improving . I empathise with many of the comments about how painful it is to either watch or listen .

          In a twisted way I see it as a ‘duty’ to testify to what the state broadcaster is doing because there is a need ‘for the record ‘ just in case some inquiry comes along which isn’t ‘fixed’ to examine the BBC and its’ future . They will have an awful lot of material from this site to get through …..

          Meanwhile – off piste – as posh types say – amazon prime is still doing good work and although it seems targeted at 30 somethings it still has pretty clever and challenging stuff .

          The man in the high castle is slow but developing nicely and the other Tom Clancy thing is much better than billed . But I’m a helicopter freak and anything with choppers in it gets a tick from me – not pornhub though …..

    But then mentions the Far Right later in the report.

    Labour want to give the vote to children.

    Has anyone explained to these children that labour plan, as usual, to be borrowing colossal amounts which will have to be paid back by….today’s children.

    It’s common knowledge that labour spend and borrow and, when voted out, leave the country bankrupt. That’s why the Tories get a bad name, they have to raise taxes to pay for labour’s wild spending sprees.

      The horrors of Nazism are apparently taught in our schools, but why aren’t the horrors of communism/ socialism/ collectivism? Without the full picture, how are these prospective new voters going to decide where to place their cross? The collectivists have slaughtered on a much greater scale. The same goes for islam, someone in the educational propaganda machine should ask India how many Hindus were murdered by their muslim invaders.

          That man is “sir” Oswald Mosley, whom she heaps with praise. She also mentions her good friend “Earthing Carl”. Earthing Carl posts content such as:

          Two k*kes and the ultimate Shabbos goy have a chat

    One thing you’ll notice in this so-called Brexit election is the sidelining of Brexit as an issue in the BBC coverage.
    Take a look at the BBC website today – and recall the first few days of campaign coverage in general – and there’s loads about the NHS and public spending but hardly anything about the central reason for the election in the first place.
    The narrative is set – this is an election to be skewed towards cuddly Labour themes, (compare and contrast the overkill coverage of Rees-Mogg and the here-today-gone-tomorrow news flash that was Watson’s resignation).

      I always thought it was the Scandinavian countries who knocked back the sauce. We talk about ‘culture’, but the European countries surrounding the Med have a more healthy attitude to alcohol – perhaps its the heat, but its only since the advent of wine being cheap and fashionable that we have become binge drinkers. Being a teenager in the 60’s we haunted the coffee bars rather than pubs, where we might have downed a pineapple juice, Mum had her Stout or port and lemon, and Dad would have his pint.

    I will vote Tory out of pragmatism because half a Brexit is better than none. But I hope that TBP take Labour seats and can influence the trade negotiations with the EU. But to my mind Brexit isn’t the highest priority, infact compared to the ongoing mass invasion , the rapid Islamisation and the disappearance of the Britain I grew up in , particularly its culture, traditions and values , it’s not a big deal. The tragedy is that no party , not even TBP, are really putting the diasappearance of Britain on their agenda at all, let alone anywhere near the top of it . Politically it seems that protecting our country and it’s heritage is toxic. If the vast majority of people in this country no longer care about , nor live by, the values they inherited and would rather live in the fractured multicultural society that the likes of the BBC are rapidly creating , then I want no part of it. They are on the road to hell and I am glad that I won’t be with them when they arrive there.

Unless it is done soon there is no chance of Britain being rescued from its own stupidity.

    Our new and respectable Speaker plans to make changes to ensure that parliamentary procedure can’t be artificially altered, against all (or at least most) previous practice. Thus introducing, for example, quickly formulated and even more quickly enacted legislation devised to favour one particular argument or stance would become illegal.
    This should mean that enviably clever people like Letwin and Starmer and Grieve and many others of that ilk will not in future be able to distort both parliamentary procedure and democracy by fiddling the system.
    Odd though it may be for us to accept, this news does not seem to have much significance for the BBC. Odder still that such an impartial organisation does not appear enthusiastic towards more transparency and impartiality.

    In Scotland they had a leave/remain in the UK referendum and remain won.
    In the UK we had a leave/remain in the EU referendum and leave won.

    Why will the politicians not accept these two results.
    Had they been the other way round that would have been the end of it.

    What’s the point of having referendums if they will only be enacted if the ‘elite’ (or whatever they are called) get the result they want.
    When the EU don’t get the result they want they keep on having referendums until they do get the result they want and then immediately stop any further referendums and carry out their plans.

    We heard the “no ifs, no buts” etc yet they still deny us our leave as voted for.
    They want to give us some dogs breakfast of a brino deal and tell us it’s Brexit.
    And they no platform the only Party who is willing to carry out the biggest democratic referendum vote we’ve had.

    Pictures of people lined up in hospital corridors will be great for Labour if / when it happens . But people won’t want the detail as to why patients are delayed in assessment and treatment at peak times – particularly when the staff are ‘temps ‘ and risk averse – ensuring every thing is noted . If people die in corridors it’s not their fault .
    That’s a construct which is the responsibility of both political partys.

    Wouldn’t it be funny if someone like Abbott lost her seat because the many thousands of postal votes didn’t arrive and all the work by the ‘community leaders’ to ‘help’ the voters fill in their labour votes was in vain.
