Do you notice the BBC has obsessions ? One obsession is Dominic Cummings . Now it is about ‘ largely peaceful ‘ protests on behalf of a criminal who was killed by american police .
‘Largely peaceful ‘ -by the way – In BBC speak -now means 27 london coppers injured and some hospitalised …. It’s lucky none are ‘largely dead’.

Project fear returns !

Ha ha – look over there – theres a squirrel – maybe poor old BBC is realising the propaganda message largely didnt work this weekend .
Keep cropping the pictures- stalin / goeballs would be proud ….
BBC Today programme pretty much said that we had used up all drugs, right across the board, during the pandemic. So, we weren’t importing drugs at all during this period ? And, given the complete devastation of the rest of the health service whilst all resources were focussed on the Coronavirus, new prescribing was obviously very much reduced (almost to zero ?). And the medicines used in the cases of Coronovirus were very specific and limited in number, because we did not have a proper ‘cure’.
So, logically – where does this scare story meet reality ? Or is it only in the minds of the Remoaners, who tried the same scare story not that long ago, but just didn’t have a pandemic like the Coronovirus to work with. Very fishy.
The #Defundthe BBC now has over 40k followers after 20 hours …. i think this and out friend sites are going to get even busier ….. ‘largely’….

Why not replace that statue with one of another Winston …
Winston Silcott, who is such an excellent role model for all Black people.
As an aside. I was living in Singapore and witnessed at a distance when they had a riot in Little India. By Singapore standards it was unprecedented and a major shock. It kicked off when a man (drunk) was ordered off a bus, was run over and killed. Police Cars were burned and the ambulance trying to get to the scene trashed. Initially only the normal police were involved and in trouble.
Once things looked like they were getting out of hand, the riot police arrived . They surrounded and isolated the the main perpetrators (about 300) , arrested around 40 -50 which discouraged the rest of the mob.
It was over in less than an hour with no injuries or fatalities. Afterwards the main vandals were either imprisoned or had their passes revoked and deported.
Unfortunately for the general public it resulted in alcohol sales being banned after midnight so you couldn’t run out of beer at a party any more !
The lesson for me was if you deal with riots firmly and don’t try to kill the rioters you stand a chance of stopping them and preventing copycat actions. For a police state they were remarkably restrained .
Gb123,
I only knew the reign of Lee Quan Yew when I lived there and boy he took no messing around. If I recall correctly even the US Ambassadors son took a ‘flogging’ for dropping litter.
Good to know, ‘old habits die hard’.

Re statues : Isn’t ripping down statues a Nazi thing, rooted in racism and the politics of envy ?
‘Yeh we Germans have always been oppressed

The Jews have been enslaving the Germans

If you think our cops under Cressida Dyck have gone soft, then take a look at New York cops washing the feet of BLMers and begging for forgiveness.
This is serious folks
Sanity is disappearing fast
What, I wonder, does your everyday US cop think of that? I guess we’ve all got mortgages to pay but I’m surprised there aren’t mass resignations.
Washing the feet… or licking the feet?

Yes Churchill was a racist who should have let Hitler take over, who was in favour of exterminating or enslaving non-aryans.
Yes Hitler hated the blacks too, remember his strop when Jesse Owen’s kept winning in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin These ignorant basta*ds wouldn’t even know that.

Sounds like a BBC expert.
Maybe Vile can have him on with YAB and Paul O’Grady?
Lewis Hamilton has said how pleased he is the Colston statue has been removed “and about time” , Good to see a multimillionaire ( earnt off the backs of white people ! ) and living in Monaco has a firm grip on reality , wonder who will be sponsoring his F1 season from now on ?
I for one am now sick to the back teeth with demonstrations taking place throughout the country at the moment.
Any sympathy I had for the protests evaporated when they started to deface our national monuments to our war dead, these lumps of Primordial Slime need to realise that if it wasn’t for the war dead who sacrificed everything they would not be in a position to do what they do.
The time has come for the Government to take the gloves of and go in hard.
Whilst serving in Northern Ireland in the late 70’s we were involved in suppressing a few riots and rest assured the only way was to go in hard and take the fight to them.
These over privelidged cretins have had it to easy for to long. I promise you if we hit them hard they will think again about rioting in the future.
The government needs to ignore the little petals on the far left and ignore the lefty luvvies in the Media and the snow flakes who run these bizzaire quangos.
Racism is appalling, we all know that but rioting to make your point is not helping your cause…
Not only that these selfish sods have most probably sent the “R” rating through the roof and could have possibly condemned us to further lock downs..
Enough is enough..!!!
If those guys think they have it bad here they should take a trip to Africa from where their ancestors came from.
Yes they may learn a thing or two for a change, instead of listening to Al Beeb.
Dafyyd I’m with you, however I don’t think the powers that be will see it like that. It’s all about popularity ratings and the next election.
I believe that what we are really seeing is a hard push by the left to recruit members disguised as legit protestors. They would like nothing more than the Government to go all crack-down as they would see this as a recruitment drive for the left and the ultimate removal of the Government.
Therefore our almost totally left media will encourage them and re-paint their despicable actions as noble sentiment.
If you applied the same rationale in other spheres it could get interesting to say the least.
For instance if you were of the opinion that fast-food outlets like McD’s and KFC have generally been a key driver in creating a generation of unhealthy overweight youngsters (which I happen to believe) and thus are a hazard to their life and health and you decided that enough was enough, would it be acceptable to start turning up mob-handed and trashing their outlets in the name of your cause?
We have already witnessed the begininngs of this with the Vegan meat protestors in action in some of our more ‘enlightened’ towns like Brighton.
What could follow? Christian Churches ransacked? Conservative social clubs targeted? I can think of many more that might become targets, particularly if the Police dismally fail in their job as they have with this situation.
digg..
Spot on but I think the public mood dictates a hard response. Whoever I talk to they are seriously pi–ed off at what’s happening at the moment, the media are mis- judging the public’s mood.
Without exception most want the government to get tough, even my older brother who is a rabid Leftie thinks things could escalate if it’s not nipped in the bud.
Like I said racism of any form is appalling but certain radical organisations see an opportunity her to vent there cause by whatever means by piggy backing these demonstrations
Time to take the gloves off before it’s too late..
Only one answer, put them all on a boat heading for Africa, they’ll feel more at home there.
“the media are mis- judging the public’s mood.” Possible they are fully aware of the mood dafydd, they just don’t care. The true zealots just keep pushing the agenda, the non believers at the limit of their ability reading an Autocue won’t be rocking any boats.
And it’s always possible that for reasons unknown they are deliberately trying to provoke unrest.
It’s well worth checking out the comments to this tweet which was highlighted on the previous page.
Churchill’s adage about feeding the crocodile is borne out. If Global thought this would appease the mob, they’re sorely mistaken. It’s not enough, they want more. And they’ve pissed off a number of less vocal clients whose answer will be not via Twitter but via the off switch.

MONSTER-ISATION tactic : Every couple of minutes someone tweets calling Colston a MONSTER.
I think in 100 years time we will be tearing down the statues of The MONSTER Michael Eavis of Glastonbury the enslaver & butcher of cows.
In a comment on page 1 I just wrote some context/background on the Colston statue that celebrates charity & doesn’t mention slavery.
@BBCTalkback page asks
“why are there memorials to slave traders?”
..says the organisation with a memorial to a PAEDOPHILE over the entrance to its HQ”
.. Except neither narrative is true it is not a memorial to a paedophile it is an artistic symbol representing BROADCASTING
.. same as the Colston statue is an artistic symbol representing CHARITABLE giving
wisdom, benevolence and music
“Prospero is interpreted as a draped and bearded figure, symbolic of wisdom and benevolence.
Ariel is conceived as a young child holding in his right hand a pipe on which he plays unearthly music.
Perhaps, though, Gill had a larger theme.
Prospero is a very Biblical figure and the hands and feet of Ariel carry the marks of the stigmata. Maybe Gill’s intention was to represent God the Father presenting God the Son to the world, on which they stand.”
According a small article in the D/Mail it was a 70 year old man who kicked off the ejection of the statue. It seems the dimwit protestors hadn’t noticed the plaque until he pointed it out to the crowd, upon which they pounced on it which led to the pulling down of the monument. I had to read that little titbit in the paper, as there was nothing about it on the tele.
Watching the pretty useless Priti Patel wasting words over the shambolic plod yesterday – I was struck that the Speaker didn’t call the MP whose constituency was the cause of the disorder – namely the MP for Minneapolis .

There is a huge campaign on at the moment to de-fund Al Beeb.
Have you signed it yet , better still please can you let us know if you pay the Telly Tax ? I understand that jobs at Al Beeb are dropping like nine pins .
BTW, Today, I received my usual letter from the ‘Telly Goons’ asking “are you watching?” in bold red type, visible in the envelope window. As if to embarrass me ?
My postman, who like me doesn’t pay, says that he is delivering similar to many houses. Laughing as he walks down the path.

The deceitful Evan Davis, reading news at 5pm on R4, couldn’t bring himself to refer to the vandalism and damage to property in Bristol as anything other than ‘direct action’.
That was before giving lotsa air time to Lefties and egging on the ‘Rhodes must fall’ campaign.
If someone burnt down Broadcast House, or Evan’s place, I wonder if he would still calmly refer to that as ‘direct action’, without any furhter elaboration.? i suspect the hypocrite would get rather more hot under the collar?
And we might get some ‘direct’ language from him?
Fake
I made mistake of putting him on..and yes what a T**t. He has developed a not very subtle technique of pretending he cares about the ‘other’side of argument when he doesn’t. E.g Lets put aside the violence and police….which might sound strange to some..but…then goes on to let Tariq Ali spout Left wing rubbish uninterrupted…the later pretending again…why should some white bloke be bothered about Coulson when it might seem a bit remote..only to let Left wing woman babble on
It is not working Evan…you are a duplicitous mendacious truthwarper
You are right: there is a slyness about Evan Davis’s dishonesty and bias. He is not as confrontational as Eddie Mair could be and sounds somewhat milder and more reasonable but the same bias persists. He talked to Tariq Ali, for instance, without any caveats about this entryist and his extreme past. He gently pushes guests to say what is required. If he ever plays devil’s advocate, it is in a half-hearted way. My opinion of him has declined as I have had more experience of him on ‘PM’ and my optimism when he took over from Mair has not been fulfilled.
The BBC normally ‘hates’ Michael O’Leary, the boss of Ryanair, with a vengeance, ridiculing him at every opportunity, basically calling him a rapacious, conscience-free, manipulator, looking only to make money.
But, since the Conservative-hating BBC now find themselves aligned with him on the self-isolation rules of the current government, they are lionising him for all they are worth – freely allowing him to throw as many insults as he can get into his interruption-free daily/weekly tirades on their news programmes – no challenge, no interruptions, no disagreement…..
Convenient connivance makes for some strange bedfellows.
Why we need a say over public statues
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-52966692
Ok and let us have a say over the Telly Tax.
“Howz about that then?”
Will Gompertz should be careful what he wishes for.
It might be that the pleb public would vote against many of these modern sculptures that have been imposed on the landscape.
I bet that most people in a city hardly notice statues of the Victorian era as they hurry about their business but something like Antony Gormley’s one hundred iron men at Crosby beach change the character of a vast area, would that installation have been approved by public vote?

BBC news at 6 pm
Laura Doomsberg is wearing black !!!!
Later, new coronavirus deaths are reported at 55, the lowest since March.
Yet this was reported by Fiona Bruce and Hugh Pym with maximum negativity.
Doom. There have been 40,000 deaths.
Gloom. Rates are always low after the weekend.
Doom. The rate is sure to go up tomorrow.
What the report showed was the determinedly anti-government bias of the BBC.
Can I prove this ?
Yes, because by way of contrast the very next item was the zero new deaths in Scotland. No such doom-and-gloom qualifications. The tone was decidedly more upbeat, the sun was shining in the coverage and Wee Krankie was quoted approvingly.
Appalling, biased editorial and totally calculated and deliberate.
And once again Kuntsberg trotted out biased inflammatory stats showing that blacks do less well, and get more arrested, than other ethnic groups. There couldn’t be other reasons than racism, could there?
Asians on the other hand do surprisingly well in our racist society.
All very baffling.

Oh God, just wait till they start whingeing that they’re not represented in the adverts.

All the Tory voters ( white, patriotic) in the new Tory constituencies in the North are probably looking at the BLM and realising that BBC Labour just have nothing relevant to say to them.
Look at the majorities for Lammy and Abbott and you’ll see black racism is alive and well. But outside the bubble, voters may be less interested in the self-serving black victimhood narrative.
And all because of the death thousands of miles away of a serial drug criminal cokehead who was given five years for pulling a gun on a pregnant woman. Who was black.

Channel 4 news has decided the take the moral low ground this evening with an all-out attack on anything white or British. You could be forgiven for mistaking the broadcast as coming from a UK hating communist banana republic.
An endless stream of black talking heads led by the repulsive Snow into making outrageous claims about how horrible white folk are especially here in the UK.
The final solution is according to them to rewrite history completely for schoolchildren so that they will grow up with no National pride combined with a shocking sense of white guilt. And all this over goings on 2-300 years ago.
This garbage must be making a large percentage of the normal white UK population seeth with anger and will eventually do more to alienate different cultures than anything a few supposedly right-wing activists will ever achieve.

Here’s the fascist Douglas Murray talking some, erm, common sense about the madness of crowds.
Nice quote: Silence is violence, but violence… isn’t violence!
The sheer stupidity of what I’m hearing on the BBC News is driving me daft. The headlines tonight include mobile phone video of some black youth saying, “We want the same energy you give to the white community.” What the hell does that mean? The angry protestors are complaining and whining but specific examples of racist policies or practices which we would be only too glad to help them abolish are not identified. That is because they do not exist. No, I think they are protesting, without really being aware of it, simply against the black condition: Doing less well at school, more likely to be unemployed, higher arrest rate. These aren’t things that society or whites can sort out for them – they are functions of blacks’ lower IQ, higher testosterone levels, greater impulsiveness and shorter time horizons. This is sad, unfortunate, tragic even. But it is true. To prosper in modern technological societies, they are the race least equipped to do so.
Z – all true.

You do jest, but he knew all along you just have to ride the soap opera until the next subplot comes in
8 says ago the police were arresting people in HydePark for the 30 people Break the Lockdown protest
On video you could clearly see that the cop arrested the WHITE guy then jumped up in the air to knock the guy to the ground.
Then 7 days later the narrative is there is no problem with breaking the lockdown and that White-people never experience any police violence.
Dont entirerly trust Farage anymore after the rubbishing of TR and the standing down of the brexit party – but he is bang on the money with this.
There would be nothing new about that, Pug.
A couple of decades ago I was informed by an officer of a certain English police force (as they then were) that an area of a particular city (not London) with a predominantly black population was, to all intents and purposes, a no-go area for the police.
The officer referred to the area as ‘the frontline’ and explained that the police only ever went there mob-handed, and even then only in response to allegations of very serious criminality.
I disagreed with those tactics then, and I disagree with them now. The law applies to all, to protect, deter and punish. As such, it loses its legitimacy if it is not applied equally to everyone in every part of the country.
One day after the appalling events over the weekend, the BBC response to mob rule and desecration of national historical monuments could best be described as ‘apologist’.
None of their broadcast output has been overtly critical. Any ‘public’ contribution over the airways is so carefully stage managed on a spectrum from ‘complete justification’ to ‘very mildly upset but sympathetic’.
My conclusion is the BBC are now openly culturally marxist. There is simply no hiding from this or balance whatsoever anywhere across the organisation. Any mild criticism of BLM/protests is met with a wall of ‘barrister-like’ interrogation. Interrogation completely absent in reverse.
Yesterday, I described them as the the broadcasting wing of ANTIFA. Today my opinion has hardened. Yes I have signed the petition. Yes I have written to my MP.
According to one BBC contributor; ‘We only want statues and street names of those directly involved in the slave trade to be removed’. No argument from Nikki Campbell on this mornings ‘Your Call’.
So let’s explore this logic a little and expose the idiocy of the ’cause’ and extension of this ‘group think’.
More involved in the Slave Trade than Colston is surely the family who set up and directly benefitted from the company he worked for?
Colston became a member of the Royal African Company in 1680. A trading company set up by King Charles II and his brother, The Duke of York. So, by extension, Blenheim palace and ‘Buck’ house should be raised to the ground.
Of course, they only dare go for the easy targets at the moment. But just you wait, this was a taster.
It’s not equality, but domination they seek and the BBC champion and cheer.
Will Black Lives be pulling down Mosques next or the BBC be doing a piece slating Mohammed? – after all Islams founder was a slave trader himself.
Oh hang on I forgot he gets a free pass – he had a brown skin.
Yes pity mozzies don’t do statues.
Just got indoors after 6.00 and turned on the Radio 4 news to hear the presenter wetting themselves over an Arabic space mission to Mars. Blah blah …. hoped it would encourage arabic children to take up science etc; ultimate aim to have a manned space station on Mars. Blah blah … 800 years ago arabic scientists foremost in science etc. Sounds racist to me.
I groaned inwardly at the prospect of the call to prayer echoing across the Martian wastelands.
Don’t forget that Moira Stuart is descended from an overseer of slaves and Ainsley Harriot from a slave owner.
John Edward Taylor, founder of the (Manchester) Guardian, was a partner in a the cotton business, the cotton, of course, picked itself.
Nobody being silent in my street.
I put the Schubert String Quintet on.

That should last until the “tribute” is over.
For the last week I have completely given up listening to and watching the BBC and the mainstream news.
I had previously watched the news, but also cross referenced it with the newsfeeds etc. on my i pad.
Of course, There is always a different point of view and context doing this.
It gradually dawned on me that by getting news from alternative news feeds (and this site) There is an awful lot of information missing from the MSM, that obviously they don’t want us to hear about.
The events over this last week confirm this.
The omissions of riots, vandalism and the horse incident prove this beyond doubt.
We are at the unbelievable point that anyone who gets their information from the BBC etc. IS NOT getting the full story, and only what their bias allows.
It is incredible that the public are being so misled.
How is it that we can no longer trust our state broadcaster?
So. Thanks to everyone here who provides links, stats, up to the minute news and information that could never be found or brought to the attention of the general public.
This is a valuable asset and we don’t even have to pay for it..
Rant over…………
From Nigel Farage today. Once again, he gets it right:
“As far as I am concerned, the toppling of Edward Colston’s statue in Bristol on Sunday, amid hysterical screaming, marked the birth of the British Taliban.”
“I sympathise with the men and women of our police forces, but their bosses have completely failed us”.
He’s doubly right: the criminals might well be from Afghanistan or Pakistan….
And by the way, to redress some of the imbalances:
