Weekend Thread 18 January 2020

The Far Left Biased BBC is full on Nanny State using the ‘climate change agenda ‘ to control the way we live to accord with what it approves of . Don’t breed or breath or eat or drink or smoke or bet or drive or fly or speak or be a bloke or free or think .

    TodayWatch : “Alan Dershowitz Selected to Defense Team to Defend Trump at Sham Impeachment”
    R4Today brought him on to try to grind him down
    … He didn’t flinch basically saying ‘As a Democrat I say the impeachment seems unjust’
    “My role is limited to being a constitutional expert on the issue of impeachment”

    .. Although only a side lawyer to Trump he was Epstein’s main lawyer.
    The prog didn’t ask him if he’d been at the parties etc.

    A number of odd things occurred during Thursday’s edition of Question Time.
    It did seem odd that that the audience member who sparked the racism row happened to be the first picked out to speak on the Meghan Markle topic, particularly as she is known to have been a past guest on the BBC papers review slot.
    It also seemed odd that for the second week running a QT debate about Meghan Markle within seconds became a debate about racism.
    It was also rather strange that when Shami Chakrabarti started to mention a Buzzfeed piece that apparently backed up claims of media bias against Meghan, Fiona Bruce immediately had that very same Buzzfeed text in front of her to quote from (of all the billions of words written about Meghan in the past fortnight, she happened to have to hand that particular copy implying media racism).
    And it did seem very odd that a question about Boris Johnson’s attitude towards Liverpool was chosen for debate – based on something written in The Spectator which he’d edited more than 15 years ago – and Fiona Bruce was already geared up, again, to quote directly from the piece.
    It was also bizarre, wasn’t it, that this week’s major news about the Manchester Pakistani rape gangs – happening so close to the show’s Liverpool venue – was not even selected for debate.
    Panellist Laurence Fox did bring it up himself, briefly, before our genial hostess quickly moved things on.
    You’d almost think these odd coincidences were part of a BBC set-up. Couldn’t be, could it?

      Ed – I made some of the same observations – FB gave the game away on numerous occasions. It was clear from those, that she was indeed running a carefully prepared set-up. Nothing that we see on QT is what it seems.
      It’s the beeb and it’s QT, so we are NOT surprised by this. Dishonesty in pursuit of their agendas is part of their DNA.
      A deceitful and manipulative propaganda channel, which needs the urgent attention of government. FB gets a fat salary for doing this, so if she actually has a conscience, we can work out why it seems to be ‘not bovvered’.

    Not long ago there were loads of adverts on tv asking if you’ve been mis-sold some financial product and lawyers would get you large sums of money at no cost if you got in touch with them.
    It cost the Banks many millions or even billions.

    Why doesn’t some group of lawyers offer a service to the tens of thousands of our little girls who were getting ‘enriched’ by all the rocket scientists and doctors.
    (Have you been …….. )
    They could get lots of compensation from all these presumably well off people ‘who give more to the system than they take out’ (as the left keep telling us)

    Another source would be from all those involved in covering up these ‘enrichings’ (and tortures, murders and injecting them with heroin etc)
    These extreme pc police chief constables and those fast tracked to the top of the police ‘service’ who stop any investigations into ‘enriching’ could be targeted for compensation for the thousands of abused children. Same for the other enablers, (politicians, council, social)

    Even crowdfunding for lawyers to start proceedings to get justice for these children could see lots of the ‘elite’ taken to court to explain their actions (or non actions)
    They could explain to us why they arrested those who told us what was going on (TR, Nick Griffin for examples) whilst turning a blind eye to what was actually happening.

    A handful of the enrichers being imprisoned (and a program, 3 girls) doesn’t really show the scale of the mass ‘enriching’ by those who cannot be named.

    There should be £millions paid to the thousands of little girls ignored by those who run our country so where are the lawyers.

    • fakenewswatcher says:

      Tabs- You are right. However, there is zero (0) chance the beeb is going to research the trial to establish what he was actually imprisoned for.
      There is also little chance anyone like Pumla , or the bbc, are going to do a programme on the massive corruption and mismanagement by successive ANC governments.
      For beeb, ANC are the good guys. No matter what really happens, this will be the decisive narrative. As for whitey? Obviously bad.
      So he ‘owns most of the land’? No beeb analysis of what large amounts of land the state actually owns, that could easily be handed over to aspirant black farmers. That could, however, prevent the true motive (that it would be nice to grab the goodies) from being exposed.
      Instead the ANC (and the EFF, much the same thing, but more blatantly anti-white racists, big on what the beeb would call ‘hate speech’) are bringing in EWC (expropriation without compensation).

      Not enough that racist legislation (BEE -black economic empowerment) is driving most of the skilled people from the country.

      My guess is that the present England cricket team are in SA for the last time. Cricket in SA is already heavily politicized (really only 9% of the team should be white, according to ANC philosophy), but facilities and administrative capacity to host cricket are degenerating.

      I suspect if you want to know the future of SA, Zimbabwe is a good guide to look at. (And comrade Managagwa is doing no better than Comrade Mugabe over there.) The ANC/EFF mindset is very similar to that of ZANU/PF. To get at whitey, it won’t rest until the country is down the tubes completely. Cos your objective at all times, is to grab the goodies for yourself and your mates (called cadres by ANC).

      And whether Comrade Ramaphosa is in power, or Comrade Zuma, or Comrade Mandela, won’t matter. It’s all about the NDR. Beeb should do a little research on it! Or on what went on in ANC ‘liberation’ camps before 1994 in the line of torture and murder.

      But somehow, I think we’re not going to be hearing anything about all of this anytime soon. You see, for the beeb narrative, these are all good guys. Period. So you can “kill the boer, kill the farmer” at your leisure. With a bit of torture, of course, as was much practiced in those camps.

    So there it is at long last, in black and white, front page of the Times:

    “Rotherham police chief: we ignored sex abuse of children”.

    A big story – a huge story – yet nowhere to be found on Al-Beeb.

    Not on the webshite’s Home page, or UK, or England, or Regions, or South Yorkshire. Try typing Rotherham into the search box and you’ll get a page of football news.

    In other words THE CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE CONTINUES. The very same mindset that allowed the often violent paedophile abuse of thousands of children for decades is alive and well at Al-Beeb, who are therefore complicit and should be held to account.

    One other thing. Read the wording of the report: ‘A senior police officer admitted that his force ignored the sexual abuse of girls by Pakistani grooming gangs for decades because it was afraid of increasing “racial tensions”’.

    Was it really afraid of ‘increasing racial tensions’, or was it much more afraid of criticism by the entire politically-correct, liberal-left establishment, starting with the BBC and of course the Guardian, the muslim Council of Britain, the local Labour councils etc etc?
    _________________________________________________

    In case you’re paywalled, some extracts:

    “After a five-year investigation, the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) upheld a complaint that the Rotherham officer told a missing child’s distraught father that the town “would erupt” if it was known that Asian men were routinely having sex with under-age white girls…

    The chief inspector is said to have described the abuse as “P*** shagging” and to have said it had been “going on” for 30 years: “With it being Asians, we can’t afford for this to be coming out.”

    Until now police forces across the north and the Midlands have consistently denied that concerns about upsetting community sensitivities or accusations of racism were a factor in their past failure to tackle grooming gangs.

    An investigation by The Times into child grooming in towns across the north prompted an independent inquiry. Its 2014 report found that between 1997 and 2013 more than 1,400 Rotherham children were exposed to severe levels of sexual abuse and violence by groups of men who were “almost all” of Pakistani heritage. To date, 36 men have been convicted for crimes related to the scandal.”
    _________________________________________________

    And finally, just look at the numbers: 1,400 children in one small town.
    Multiply that by dozens of towns and you begin to get an idea of the scale of this epidemic.

    Hang your heads in shame, BBC, if you have any.

        … the tactics are basically the same
        Like the public ducking-stool if the accused doesn’t drown that etc. proves they are guilty etc.

    Tommy Robinson gave a good acceptance speech after accepting the free speech award today in Copenhagen. It’s about an hour and a quarter long and the quality is not the best but it’s still worth the time, mainly because he summarised what the State and the Mainstream Lying Media have been collectively doing to him for over ten years. And of course he names a few of the worst of the swamp rats, including Mr Sweeney.

      That reminds me of two global media stories from Hull, not reported by Peter Levy on BBC Look North. One about the above being held as a white working-class political prisoner of the upper middle-class liberal left-wing establishment in Hull Jail. The other was about a Muslim trying to cut peoples heads off in Hull.

    I am delighted to report that the BBC website now has an article on the Rotherham child abuse scandal.
    It is very easy to find.

    As at the time of writing, simply google bbc news to get to the front page.
    And then select
    UK
    England
    Regions
    Yorkshire and Lincolnshire
    Sheffield and South Yorkshire

    And there it is !!!!
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-51160707

    You may even see the word ‘Pakistani’ although strangely the word ‘Muslim’ does not appear. That said it appears to be being continuously edited so it is possible it will refer only to ‘men’ very soon.

    The beeb are even, finally, beginning to cover the report on the Rotherham ‘Asian’ gangs in their news broadcasts.

    Good. Better late than never, even if they were forced to by the sheer magnitude of the story, which even the beeb couldn’t brush under the carpet any more.

    But isn’t it time that non-paedophile-rapist Asians got together and said ‘Not in my name, beeb’.

    Calling them Asian is comparable to calling Nazis ‘European’.

    “6 million Jews murdered by Europeans in death camps”.

    Not in my name, beeb.

    So playing a musical instrument properly is not going to
    be the number one priority for the English National Opera
    orchestra.
    As an opera lover I am looking forward to a production of
    William Tell by Rossini. I expect the overture will go something
    like the Portsmouth Sinfonia’s rendering .You can listen to it on
    You Tube. It should be fun!!
    I also recommend ” Also Sprach Zarathustre by Richard Strauss.
    Many of you may not know that this version was used in the film
    2001. It’s a little bit more difficult to play than the William Tell
    and the ENO with a “mixed” orchestra might struggle like
    the lot from Pompy.
    I expect it could be just the kind of “thing” the BBC Proms
    would like to include.

    Proof that BBC brainwashing has been responsible for destroying science in Britain.

    A global network of 700 scientists and professionals has prepared this urgent message. “There is no climate emergency”

    Italy (159) tops the table of scientists who signed this declaration, followed by Australia (102), USA (94), France (68), Netherlands (58) and then Britain with only (38).

    In their report on Rotherham, a beeboid laments that ‘the police were aware as early as the mid 90s of suspects committing child abuse’, but did nothing.

    Given that the pattern of abuse was common knowledge in the area, the beeb report could equally have read:

    ‘The BBC were aware as early as the mid 90s of suspects committing child abuse, but did nothing’.

      Nick Griffin was sounding the alarm but the racist far-left bbc chose rather to do to him what they have done to Tommy Robinson.

      You don’t have to like Mr Griffin, or even Tommy for that matter to acknowledge they have been telling the truth, that the Mainstream Lying Media chose to ignore. And to conspire with the State to destroy them.

      Her ‘academic’ profile, and I use the term loosely, reveals she needs to find racism in order to justify her existence.

      https://www.edgehill.ac.uk/education/about/staff/rachel-boyle-2/

      ‘Rachel has extensive experience of working to promote equality and diversity in education including projects in the United States. Her travels to New York to carry out research into the advancement of African Americans since the civil rights movement is one of her greatest achievements. As part of this trip she interviewed leading civil rights activists including Judge Jawn Sandifer and former Mayor of New York, David Dinkins.

      Her main research interest centres around the educational experiences and achievements of black, Asian minority ethnic (BAME) children. She is specifically interested in working to improve the educational experience of pupils and students from BAME backgrounds. Most recently, Rachel’s research has looked at trainee teachers’ perceptions of race and racism within education and its impact upon classroom practice. This work has led to a research led teaching approach here at Edge Hill.’

      How amazing that the BBC Question Time team should randomly pick her……….

      But what’s seriously worrying is that she is a senior lecturer in primary eduction.
      God knows what kind of ‘education’ our children get thanks to people like her.
      And all at the taxpayers’ expense.

      Maybe she could instead research why females account for 68% of her university’s students and males, privileged or not, only 32%.

        Well she does have to find micro-aggression, which is aggression that can’t be seen or heard by ordinary people. That’s why we have to pay Rachel Boyle a fortune to help us see it.

        Here is an example of what she said to The Guardian about a writer she admires:

        “She talks about the invisible, weightless knapsack of privilege,” Boyle said. “Within this knapsack there are special provisions, assurances, tools, maps, guides, passports, blank cheques [which] you carry around. You have no idea that it’s there, but you also have no idea of the privilege that whiteness affords you.”
