Christmas Thread 23 December 2019

I’d like to take this opportunity to wish everyone who reads or writes on this site a very happy Christmas from our very small admin crew.
Thank you for your contributions throughout the year as the Biased BBC has spread its’poisonous propaganda across the airways – for which people have to pay . Perhaps that is going to change .

    \\ EastEnders nativity play, led by a young, black, eco-warrior girl,
    started by asking for no loud noises,
    didn’t show Christ or the nativity,
    but was about global warming. Nuff said… //

    “When you flick to BBC One of an evening and realise that, as a viewer, what you are witnessing is Islington talking to itself”

    the #BBC’s obsession with “diversity” excludes any diversity of opinion other than its own.

      Stew – the Diversity we need from the bbc is DIVERSITY OF THOUGHT/OPINION of Brits all over Britain, not only those of Islington. What do the people of Hull, Doncaster, Sedgefield, rural Scotland and -for that matter- rural Essex think?
      A young, black girl going on about global warming, and no reference to Christ? Clearly something very wrong!
      It says in the Bible somewhere that He would sent them a great delusion, which they would swallow, hook, line and sinker. This could be it.
      And on the day of Judgement, they’ll discover what global warming really consists of, and it won’t be pretty.
      However, to all who appear on this site, I wish a very Happy and safe Christmas. ( GWF are thoughts are especially with you. Are you in need of help? ) This land is our land. It DOES NOT belong to Lord Hall Hall. It also does not belong to Toady.

      One of these days the entertainment industry in our country is going to have to accept that the vast majority of the population is white and, speaking for myself, want white people writing stories about white people, for white people and played by white people. Where men play men’s roles not effeminate milksops and women play women’s roles not ersatz men.

        John, there was a seismic change towards actors/actresses of colour in Hollywood a couple of years ago, and quite rightly so, people of talent, regardless of colour or religion should be employed, BUT, the pendulum has swing too far in the opposite direction – in this country, and defaming historical fact to give a BAME a role is totally wrong. Imagine the Twitter meltdown if a white actor was given the role of Dr Martin Luther King, or Anthony Hopkins played Nelson Mandella ! same difference. Advertisers too are hell bent on giving equal promotion to mixed race couples, which I’m heartily sick of seeing. My immediate thought when yet another one appears is “here we go again”, which is not the aim of advertisers when they are pushing a product.

          You , nor anyone for that matter, has to pay for reading what is on this site, so unlike the BBC were the only legal way to avoid paying is not to own a TV set. I think that we are entitled to freedom of speech and say how we feel. If you don’t like what posters say or feel you are under no obligation to respond or to read the posts in future. The BBC is allowed to pump out brazenly progressive propaganda 365 and we are forced to pay for the tripe. Resentment of the BBC and the whole progressive movement is rapidly growing, going Woke has been a step too far, hopefully all those who oppose the Wokists will consign them to the dustbin of history in the next decade.

    The last few days have been bliss in our local town. People actually look normal again, as if some impending plague has been thwarted at the last minute. No idiots on the street handing out lefty, pro-remain, anti 5G, XR rebellion leaflets. No crazies with braided purple hair demanding your attention. Indeed, no-one resembling Brad Pitt’s character in The Twelve Monkeys pressing anything in your direction.

    They’ve all gone underground, or at least under the pebbles. For a while, we can breathe a little more easily. Happy Christmas everyone!

      SG,
      From the debate I watched on Sky Australia (a very reliable ‘straight’ source) via YT, the Australians have suffered in many of the areas affected with Green/Far Left local council control. As is their won’t, the Marxist Greens halted the maintenance of the previously formed fire breaks as maintaining those safety barriers was not Green. Then there was the claim that the maintenance could not be afforded to support the primary Green goal: destruction of mankind. If anyone is to be charged, it should be the Greens/Marxist lefties.

    I suppose that this Christmas Eve will be the same as the last 47 years or so, since Mrs O’Blene and I tied the knot!

    I usually start the day organising and polishing the various bottles before breakfast, and then prepare for the marathon work of the season – stuffing the turkey…

    Back when we were first married, I took nearly 23 hours, but have got it down to about 8 now.

    I hope that one day, someone could explain how one stuffs a turkey any other way than through its beak…

    Happy Christmas everyone, and thank you all for the sanest, most enjoyable, exasperating, sensible, site around! Like most good people here, we won’t be bothering to watch anything on the BBC, but will follow the Magic Grandpa’s mantra, aided by Diane Abbott, and watch it a boiled sausage after Walpurgis Night!

    Jonathan Friedland is taking the ‘long view’ of ‘white racism’ in sport, which -apparently- goes back to a boxing match in 1810, on beeb R4. No doubt, beeb will constantly bring on witnesses to show this merely reflects white racism in society. Blacks don’t do this sort of thing, of course.
    He should read South African papers, where this time the blacks are in the majority and the whites in the minority.
    Rape -often in front of families, hideous, indescribable torture, murder, car hijacks, etc are a daily feature of what many whites, especially on farms, are subjected to. Read southafricatoday news, and you will really be shocked. Many of these are deliberate racist incidents.
    Lest you say ‘its only crime’, the leaders of black parties in parliament get off scott-free after encouraging blacks to murder whites, grab their land etc Study the career of one Julius Malema, and you will have some idea.
    ‘Affirmative action’ has driven skilled whites out of jobs, to be replaced by unskilled blacks, who have mismanaged and looted big corporations like SAA, Eskom and many others, to the point of collapse and insolvency. Many whites have also been driven out of the country, a deliberate ANC / EFF strategy.

    Monkey chants? They are disgraceful, but nothing compared to what happens when racism in reverse strikes.
    Give me monkey chats all day, if the alternative is molten plastic poured over my body.

      From Presentation by Walter Veith, quoting from the Roman Catholic Vatican2 documents :

      “Vatican II Council document Gaudium et Spes: If one is in extreme necessity he has the right to procure for himself what he needs out of the riches of others…Therefore, because private property is immoral, all men—individuals and governments—have the moral obligation to redistribute goods held unjustly by property owners (emphasis added). xxv In this Vatican statement, stealing is clearly endorsed. And we are told by Pope Benedict that this document and its principles codified at Vatican II are to be considered today’s definitive statement on social doctrine. Pope John Paul II echoed this statement in 1981 and again in 1987: 8″.

      And ” But it gets worse. Covetousness and stealing are also a daily part of this Papacy-inspired lifestyle. Theft, Needs, and Private Property Because the goods of some are due to others according to Catholic natural law, it is not considered sinful for the poor take the goods of their neighbors. Thomas Aquinas, pivotal 13th-century Catholic philosopher, says this: In cases of need, all things are common property, so that there would seem to be no sin in taking another’s property, for need has made it common.”

      The complete transcript can be read here:

      No wonder the Catholic Church isn’t outspoken about the white genocide in South Africa and why it promotes Liberation Theology in South America.

        vlad – I think your 1) and 2) are correct. 3) is interesting, although Apartheid died over a quarter of a century ago!
        Rather than discuss broad policy issues though, I was interested in reading about the atrocities individual people of any colour are capable of. Yet, there will be many kind and compassionate people among all races, as well.
        The problem arises when, like the bbc, you take the alleged monkey chant incident (and it is merely alleged), give it huge publicity, then allow the (unproven) unkind actions of one or two people to be used to smear an entire population. I was trying to point out that such one-sided commentary was off the mark. Possibly add to that attempts to imply that government is responsible, and suddenly you realise what a political campaign all this actually constitutes!
        So, in reality, the bbc is playing POLITICS again, disguised as news and anti-racist coverage, but implying always that only one group could possibly be ‘racist’, instead of pointing out individual offences and making no inferences about how this proves widespread similarities in society itself. Actually this is all bbc conjecture!
        But maybe some of this mud can be made to stick on government?

    ” The bell also tolls for Bercow, who abused his high office to derail Brexit and is destined for well-deserved ignominy. In future, he will be found barking ‘Order, Order!’ on foreign TV shows and at passengers on the Clapham omnibus — a modern-day, one-man freak-show like the Vicar of Stiffkey, who ended his days preaching from inside a lion’s cage.”

      Good read that. Thanks for posting it. This is also nicely put …

      It’s not enough for Boris to hire an extra 20,000 coppers. He has to ensure they’re deployed on the streets, fighting knife crime and tackling burglary, instead of pursuing politically motivated prosecutions for ‘hate crimes’.

      The fire brigade must be reminded that their job is fighting fires, not ‘celebrating diversity’ and putting the safety of firemen ahead of the lives of the people they’re paid to rescue. The Armed Forces should be told they will be judged on their ability to defend us against our enemies, not on how many sexual and ethnic minorities they employ

      And that’s the problem isn’t it? If it were simply a case of, “Look folks there are quite a few great actors around these days who may not perfectly fit the ethnic mix of those originally portrayed in this novel/play/film but we would like to use them in the re-make”, well I’d be ok with that. I’m sure many others would too.

      Unfortunately, that is not the situation and ‘actors of colour’ are not used indiscriminately. They are used in high-status roles in a childish and thinly disguised way by the director to upset the nasty white oppressors who need to be reminded of their nasty white oppressive ways.

      Hence, as you have so correctly indicated Foscari, you would never see a black actor playing Scrooge. Quite pathetic really.

    TOADY Watch #1 – Christmas Edition

    I listened to the whole programme this morning from 6a.m. to 9a.m..

    Bluebottle type-voice-thoughts: “Eeeeuugghhh! I cannot remember any of it, I cannot. Heeeee heeeeeee!”

    I do recall there may have been some virtue signalling and cash-bucket rattling in front of the taxpayer.

    I found myself wondering if professional footballers paid obscene amounts of money to kick a football around, often while not doing it very well, would like to return to the days when fans could stand closer to the touchline and shout good old-fashioned polite abuse instead of making so-called ‘monkey noises’ from a seat.

    Then there was the notable absence of two Senior Editors from the Senior Editors Mastermind. Hopefully the Politics and Economics Editors will turn up to work a bit more often in 2020 to justify their salaries.

    Apart from that, you haven’t missed much if you didn’t listen.

    I will not be listening to the Guest Edited TOADIES after Christmas because a few years ago, I found I just couldn’t stand them. I will therefore not be posting about them on here. (The Charles Moore one is slightly tempting because he, at least, he’s been a proper Editor.)

    Normal service, all being well, will be resumed in the New Year.

        Stew, to be fair, the BBC did report the results of the Tottenham Hotspur FC investigation into the incident.

        Agree with you about hearing it, correctly or at all, on the pitch. Suppose it was different sections of fans with slight delay between exclamations of “Oh” or “Oooh” as a shot is saved or a crunching tackle made? One player’s ‘delayed reaction’ becomes another player’s ‘monkey chants’. The players ought to be concentrating on their team-mates’ calls and the Ref’s whistle, not the crowd.

        That said, I recall what Graham Hill said about the amazing things he could hear and smell when blatting down the Pits Straight at Silverstone, or wherever, at 150 to 180 m.p.h..

          Congratulations.

          Merry Christmas.

          Yes Maxi, you might say that you saw a ghost
          … but there is no EVIDENCE for the ghost.

          Your brain is a kind of film maker, so your “ghost” may have been created inside your head.
          Similarly a second person can convince themselves they saw the same ghost, but that still wouldn’t be evidence
          … like a video photograph would be EVIDENCE.

      Happy Christmas – it’s so good to be BBC free . I remember when people had genuine affection for ‘Aunty’ but when the far left propaganda department took over it was lost .

      The viewing figures will be showing that too . But whilst they are demanding money with menaces their viewing numbers don’t matter .

        I will enjoy it this year, Fed, as I’ve had a few days of abstinence this year and in two or three previous post-Christmas R4 TOADY periods and they have proved peaceful.

        I’ll leave it to some tougher folk on here to tell me what I’ve missed and to spot the bias.

    Some folk getting alarmed that Russia is testing an “Internal” internet so that Russians will only get material from Russian sources.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-50902496

    Seems these folk are worrying that this might enable State controlled content and propaganda to block out unwanted criticism and news from the rest of the World.

    Maybe that was why Corbyn wanted to make the UK internet “free’ and probably therefore state-controlled…… by his cronies of course!

    Many thanks Fed for the admin and general site upkeep here. Much appreciated.

    I’m just listening to 9 carols from Kings, I’m sure the Beeb, obsessed as they are with racism, homosexuality, Islam, climate change etc etc… must hate this traditional showing of English/British/Christian virtue and tradition. Long may it continue.

    Unlike the Al Beeb.

    LOL…..BBC automating some of its data driven stories…but there are problems…er…as they see it…..

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-50779761

    ‘Mr McKenzie said one limitation of the system was that it could not add analysis to articles.
    “None of the stories have any quotations in, none of them have any analysis of what happened or what the significance is. It is purely a written version of what has happened based on the data. So that’s quite a big downside in terms of quality of journalism.”‘

    ‘Purely a written version of what has happened.’….if only all BBC journalism were like that this site would be unnecessary….it’s in the analysis and context that most of the bias resides so subject to the journalists’ own personal opinions and views as they are…though naturally the numbers can be made to tell a lie as well….‘Rubbish in, Rubbish out’….if the algorithms are designed to lean a certain way you’re still going to get bias. Still, at least that would be easier to reprogramme and correct than ‘checking the thinking’ of the liberal bots we have now dominating the airwaves at the BBC.

    Merry Christmas to all on this site….and of course a happy Brexit new year!

    It didn’t look good for a while but the Red Menace has been crushed, the Gina ‘I’m doing this in the interest of democracy’ Miller bandits have been stopped in their tracks and Lord Hall’s referendum result driven indigestion problem must be going into overdrive now with not only a huge Tory majority but Brexit looming large….so all’s well that ends well.

    Of course it did not always look that way as the Remainers fought the inconvenient democratic upset…..

    In 2016 predicting a dire Xmas…

    And nothing had changed even a couple of weeks go…

    And last Christmas the BBC’s Home Duty Editor tweeted this…

    This is what she tweeted this year…………

    Over on the Guardian, the new black female bishop of Dover, has claimed the Brexit debates and antagonism contributed to the murder of Jo Cox the Labour MP and that the C of E is institutionally racist.
    There several links about Jo Cox and negative reports about Brexit.
    Surely this woman should sever all links with an institutionally racist church and look round for another one to join and rise up through the ranks. Any suggestions?
    The last Christmas service at my local church that I attended had little about Christmas, and was more a personal left wing rant by the female cleric against so called right wing nazis.
    I haven’t been back since. Little wonder the C of E is in decline, although I believe the ideas of the New Testament have much to commend them

      Invicta- I believe the entire Bible has much to commend it; never make the mistake of confusing the “church” with the message and power of the Scriptures! They may coincide, they may not.
      The “church” is really no more than a body of believers. There is no need for a denomination of any kind. There is also no need for man-made structures, for bishops and archbishops and popes etc. The minute they become a formal, paid hierarchy, they have already wandered away from the Word. You then get what you have described above, including a lot of confusion. The ‘bishop’ of Dover certainly sounds confused; her message is political (more man-made structures).
      If you will prayerfully seek after after the Word, you will find -in fact- that you require non of the trappings we like to think constitute a “church”. It may seem difficult, at first, to get used to this idea. But already, I see Maxicony has provided an interesting photograph we should ponder. It is not impossible that this photograph leads one to entirely the WRONG conclusion: atheism or even agnosticism. But know this: the politicians in the church have a lot in common with the politicians in politics. A nice salary, for starters. Deceptive messages. I could go on.
      The Old Testament may appear ever so out of Fashion, but it is worth exploring the concept of Types and Shadows, and you may understand its relationship with the New..

    This morning on R4X I listened to The Goon Show, Round the Horn and Dead Ringers. All wonderfully and genuinely funny.
    Have just finished watching Not Going out and lastly the 20 year old classic Christmas Vicar of Dibley.
    My wife and I laughed all the way through, so clever. Apart from Dead Ringers all from a different era.
    The current BBC executive should be made to listen and watch programmes from yesterday and see how great the BBC used to be.

    I live in hope that one day the BBC will wipe its entire stock of the dire The Vicar of Dibley but alas it still forms part of Graham Norton’s exciting Christmas package.

    However that is a useful reminder that its writer, Richard Curtis, came up with the concept so as to normalise the idea of female clergy in the public’s mind. The BBC does nothing without a reason.

    The Vicar of Dibley should have been an awful warning, while men become priests through a sense of duty women do it because they are stark staring bonkers, as demonstrated by all the real female priests that the BBC has inflicted on us over the years.

    Of course that too has been done for a reason. While it is part of the Agenda to push us into an all female world it is also just as important to convince us that Christianity is for the insane.

    Happy Christmas my fellow contributors. I would like to think people like us in someway contributed to the massive (and it was) hammering of the Labour party and indeed the defeat of the Marksest threat to the UK. But our job is only half done the journey to salvation is yet to be completed we therefore must keep up the pressure, even if it’s only mentioning BBC Bias to our friends neighbours and colleagues. I have noted a marked increase in people noting the biased agenda and the complete PC narrative that accompanys ALL output from the BBC. So the great British people are waking to the Bias of the BBC and questioning the compulsory funding to a regime that gives them little or no content for them to consume. So keep up the good work and onwards to the abolishion of the compulsory telly tax !! And once that’s done our next move is advertisers !!

    Yes totally agree – The tide may well be starting to turn, and people are finally starting to realise that Aunty has been very naughty and really does needs to be punished – even the PM has noticed , in fact pretty much everyone except Aunty herself, who has locked herself in the toilet with a bottle of scotch and a bottle of paracetamol and is refusing to come out unless we are “nicer” to her, shouting – you will miss me when I’ve gone! – Nah we wont!
    Without sites like this immoral, disreputable, incontinent old flea bag would have continued getting away with her lies so especially well done Fe2 and the rest of you who run this site so patiently and for so long and have given the rest of us an outlet for our frustration.
