        Looking at the BBC and Google using deduction, I think I have worked out what is going on.

        According to BBC Fake News we see people saluting a statue to the censored 1940-45 Prime Minister, using NAZI salutes.
        I therefore presume that BBC/Google is airbrushing history to make plebs deduce that the Prime Minister from 1940 to 1945 was Oswald Mosley, and therefore must be airbrushed from history because of racism. As you can see, Winston Churchill was Prime Minister from 1951 to 1955, but no Photo is available. But as many West Indian males at this time were called Winston. I believe BBC/Google wants you to assume that Winston was Black. In fact its well known that the BBC wants Black actors to play the part of Winston Churchill from now on. As someone who worked for the BBC said “Who controls the past controls the future”

        Removal of information in the form of censorship, and then replacing the information with selected biased clues, pointing towards the BBC’s preferred narrative, is how the BBC airbrushes truth, and replaces it with fake news.

        Prime Minister Churchill is in the images of Duckduckgo but you’ll have to scroll down to find them. Same with Prime Minister Thatcher. In fact there are more images of Dancing Terry May than of Margaret Thatcher. And Mr Cameron seems to be over represented too.

    It is clear to me that race relations have been put back a generation or more. Once you label the majority white population as the other and inherently beyond redemption as racist . ( unless you are working for the BBC/Guardian etc )then you effectively end up with de facto segregation.
    Take the police. It will now be too dangerous for unarmed police to enter BME majority areas and anyway they are seen now as the enemy. Clear after the recent attack in Hackney.
    This means that only BME police will be permitted. Unless as many want you simply withdraw completely. A defund the police in name.
    Added to that the ordinary white citizen fearful of giving offence and wanting a quiet life will avoid contact unless necessary. Much like they avoid any eye contact or interaction with a woman in a burka. That will not be a result of racism but fear. This will gradually mean that whole cities will be segregated on racial lines. There are elements on both sides who want this.
    Nobody thinks things through anymore. The chance was lost last week when the government failed to make it clear that the law was the law and would not be broken at will. Today we have seen more disorder and that is but a foretaste.

      Dave – You are right. Terrible damage was done last weekend.
      What a victory for the anarchists and agent provocateurs.
      I wrote, with a degree of facetiousness last week about little sick
      old me “manning the barricades” all because Cressida Dick did not have the sense to tell her officers to make sure that the statue of
      Winston Churchill and the Cenotaph were to be protected. Instead
      we had the police prostrating themselves before the mob.The perfect storm was created
      for what happened yesterday.
      What is unbelievable is that the BBC ,the national “unbiased ”
      broadcaster has acted almost like an enemy of the state
      during all of this. Siding with an organization whose aims are
      for anarchy. Carry on BBC , you are succeeding.

      “Once you label the majority white population as the other and inherently beyond redemption as racist”.
      ‘Fraid its all part of the Chinese plan which is well underway now. Personally, I cannot see, practically, anyway other than their plan needing to continue to naturally unfold. After all, in the knowledge of that plan (it would be downright crass to suppose it is not within the knowledge or contemplation of) the western political elite being complicit. Add the communist, Soros to the mix as well.

    The idiots who caused trouble yesterday have played right into the hands of the BBC, who can now contrast the ‘far-right thugs’ with those nice, largely peaceful BLM demonstrators.

    They duly obliged: “Police were attacked by demonstrators, some of whom were far-right activists, after thousands gathered claiming they were protecting statues.”

    Own goal, football clubs. All moral advantage squandered.

    They can even let the Government do the job for them: “PM condemns “racist thuggery” as far-right protesters clash with police.”

    Where is our PM? Is Al Beeb censoring him ? Or is he in a safe space ? He should be supporting our police and defending all statues and icons of the UK’s history.
    If he knows what’s good for him and his Tory party, he should defund Al Beeb. He should get rid of the Telly Tax and allow the public to support Al Beeb by charitable donations, if they so wish? We will then see how popular it is ? Finally , just what is this fellow Cummings doing ?

    The removal of Churchill by Google is frightening. The world’s largest search engine can now positively discriminate to satisfy a few thousand snowflakes ….wow. let’s not be under any illusion here this Antifa numbers a few thousand yet they can count on a resource that has a budget of 4 Billion. The whole of the BBC is behind them supporting them with a massive propaganda budget. They are using OUR money to push the anti white, male, Christian and capitalist agenda . The country voted NO in December to Corbaynist ultra left politics and yet they continue to push knowing that they cannot win by the ballot box. If we aren’t careful law and order in this country will collapse as the police will turn a blind eye to ultra left none democratic methods as to act against the ultra left is to act against the wishes of the woke ultra left chief constables. If it does come to violence on a large scale then if history shows anything its that White Christian males are very good in a scrap.
    Let’s hope for all our sakes the Government gets a grip but sadly I feel that Boris is on the side of the anarchists he is weak willed and more scared of the press than the electorate, we need more than ever a strong leader in No 10.

    We were warned that Boris was just a showman in it for himself and I fear that we didn’t listen…….god help us all.

      8am Radio news
      #1 “6 police hurt injured in VIOLENT Far Right protests in London”
      You what ??
      vs “35 police hurt in PEACEFUL BLM protests in London”

      #2 A man urinated next to PC Palmer memorial
      Long clip of outraged person
      (not a good look, but they had a way of making it sound like he was urinating on it.
      It is a bit hidden away near to the ground on a bushy wall
      Secondly it is strange to elevate such an event, similar things must have happened in the BLM demos
      Logically it is PR to dwell on this one thing)

      #3 Atlanta police says he understands why their protests turned VIOLENT, cos tension had built up.

      #5 Remember Grenfell tonight with 72 ritual church bells across the country.

      I hope the 6 police , recover it should not have happened.
      … And there is no mention of the violence by black packs/antifa.
      But we know you go to one of these things, then next day open up the paper and the event depicted is completely different from the one you saw with your own eyes.
      It was obvious from the start that whatever happened a lot of forces including the media were going to make sure the “patriot protesters” looked worse than the BLM protesters.

    Talk show DJ is suspended for saying he’s not ‘white and privileged’ during on-air debate about Black Lives Matter

    Stuart Peters, 65, has worked for Manx Radio on the Isle of Man for 20 years
    He said he understood why protests were happening in the US but not in the UK
    The Free Speech Union defended him and started a campaign to reinstate him

    A popular radio DJ has been suspended after defending himself

    during an on-air debate about the Black Lives Matter movement.

    Talk-show host Stuart Peters denied he had benefited from ‘white privilege’ when challenged by a black listener on his late-night programme. The presenter was taken off the air the following day.

    Last night he told The Mail on Sunday the decision amounted to an ‘Orwellian attempt at mind and speech control’.

    So it was the ‘Far-Right’ goose-stepping through London yesterday and violently attacking the police….according to the BBC….a BBC which takes up a lot of its report being outraged at a man peeing next to[not on] a memorial plaque for PC Palmer…the BBC not so upset when he was actually killed by a Muslim extremist though….nor much upset at BLM ‘protestors’ attacking other monuments including the Cenotaph. The guy probably had no idea the memorial was there but is being virulently condemned by all and sundry….his life ruined [quite probably] by a craven and corrupt media and virtue signalling politicians like Tobias Ellwood who …‘told the BBC: “He was fully aware of what he was doing, he should step forward and apologise.”

    The police also played a blinder….quite happy to bravely put their officers in harms way to break up a ‘Far-Right’ group there only to protect monuments from destruction by Far-Left Blacktivists…if the BLMAs didn’t attack them they would be entirely peaceful…so why did the police move them…and why is it that these defenders of a civil society are the enemy but those who would trash our society are cheered and supported by the BBC and the police…for the police decision not to prevent the BLMAs attacking statues was entirely political and nothing to do with ensuring the safety of their officers[lol…isn’t it their job to put themselves in harms way?]…if safety was an issue why would that be the case when the protests were almost entirely peaceful?…lol.

    This was the police trying to be on the ‘right-side’ of history…they did not want to be seen opposing the Black race campaigners…the police not wanting to be labelled racists and the enemies of Blacks.

    This was an entirely political decision by them, a PR stunt that allows the Blacktivists to smash up Britain…literally….it is the very same attitude the BBC takes…the blacktivists are doing no more than what the BBC has been doing for years…trying to destroy British history, to demonise white people, to delegitimise anything British from its history, its society, its culture, its politics, its system…..this is a massive exercise in ethnic cleansing…it is the demonisation of white people and their culture, when Colston went in the water that was a symbolic warning of what they want to do to you personally…’Kill the Boer’…’Shoot the white’….when you see the viciousness of those attacking Britain and British people you should understand what would happen should they get the ‘whip-hand’.

    It is quite remarkable how the BBC is so ready to vilify British heroes and history….even Colston had a good side…his money going to a vast array of charitable purposes…and yet Justin Webb demanded to know why a man with ‘no good sides’ who was pretty much a totally evil man should have a statue…similarly the BBC declares Chruchill was ‘controversial’….no, not for most people in this country who voted him our Greatest Briton…he was a hero who not only saved this country but in reality much of the world…if he had folded and not decided to oppose Hitler [and the Japanese] the world would be a very, very different place…no Israel for instance…why would you need an ‘Israel’ when there are no Jews? Ah…of course…that’s why the BBC hates Churchill….well, one of many, many reasons. Would the Americans have opposed Hitler? No.

    The immigrant Black population is around 3.5% and yet they are being enabled to overthrow and dominate this country destroying its beliefs, values, history, self-image, culture, political, financial and social structures….what they do is no different to what the invading Normans did…they did it with swords and spears, the Blacktivists do it with the aid of a corrupt and treacherous media which seek to hand power and control to the extremists.

    The BBC is the most dangerous organisation in Britain….it should be chucked in the river not those who helped to defend, nurture and maintain our values, beliefs and culture.

      The Guardian should be shut down over this. The BBC, as its main customer, should be forced to apologise over its links and thus keeping alive the memory of slavery, which is so painful to all guilt-ridden white liberals, unwashed students and anarchists black people. The BBC should be forced to pay reparations to the British people – a quick calculation reveals that a sum of around £4 billion per annum would be appropriate.

      On the surface the marriage of the BBC to the Guardian is something of a conundrum. After all, why should the ‘world’s greatest broadcaster’ and source of all that is fine and good align itself with a radical newspaper of dubious morals and yet more dubious circulation – certainly one of the lower, if not lowest news sources with consistently massaged figures to barricade against a sad reality – and whose methods, honesty and maturity has been questioned for decades.
      I think the two complement one another so comprehensively because both reflect the arrogance of what passes today as the elite/intelligentsia. Almost exclusively university educated – whether with any level of merit or achievement seems, with a delicious irony, of secondary importance – they believe themselves the ultimate arbiters of political discussion, opinion and direction.
      They are in love because both speak the same language to an introverted, essentially ignorant and embarrassingly small and dwindling section of society.

    When some whining non-entity stands up in parliament next week and demands that everyone in the House stands firm with the cuddly BLM against the ‘racist thuggery’ of those horrible, extreme ‘right-wing’ agitators and thugs, will someone just someone stand up and tell them what the true aims of the BLM movement are (defund the police etc.), the involvement of Antifa terrorists and about the targeting yesterday of lone white males by feral gangs on London streets.
    That someone (if any) is the one who deserves to be PM.

    Trevor Coult was just on the bBC ‘news’ channel – terrible sound so difficult to hear him. He said that the violence was nothing to do with the veterans or football lads (he blamed EDL/Britain First). He was cut off by ?Ben Brown as he was trying to make another point. “We’ve run out of time.”

      Pugnazious ….Interesting that Mahatma Gandhi used pretty much exactly the same language about black people.

      I heard , in passing, (so I can’t reference it), a snippet of a radio conversation the other day where exactly that point was made to one of the BLM spokespersons – her response was that Ghandi had done that, but he had redeemed himself by doing better later in his life.

      I have no idea if Gandhi changed his mind on the particular subject later in his life, but the killer question at that point would have been –“If that’s the case, then half these statues that you want to bring down are to people (e.g. Colson, Rhodes, etc.) who may have engaged with similar activities at some point in their lives, but later changed to be philanthropists, working hard and using their money to change the world into a better place – so how come you don’t apply the same standards/rules to them, and the statues raised to recognise their philanthropic works ?” (I very much doubt any statue was ever raised in the UK to actually celebrate slavery or its effects).

      Of course, this was the BBC, so did I really expect the beboid to ask this simple question ?

      Hypocrisy, or what ? Can’t hold a BAME to the same standards as ‘whitey’.

    Wokeism is now infesting the western world.
    It seemed to start in the universities with snowflake students banning speakers they didn’t agree with and needing “safe places” to hide in.

    Now, because this passive aggressive intolerance wasn’t nipped in the bud, it’s spread. It’s everywhere.
    No longer confined to banning Nick Griffin, or tearing down statues, the woke stazi are renaming public buildings and removing books.

    It’s quite amusing, in a rather tragic way, to see some formerly incredibly woke types fall foul of this intolerant mob.
    JK Rowling is the latest, but she won’t be the last. A month or so ago she was lauded, due to her comments on illegal asylum seekers. She couldn’t have been more popular. But look what’s happened. For some reason JK believes that men and women have distinct genders and you can’t change them. Extraordinary views, I’m sure you’ll agree. And first to condemn her have been the three talentless young sprogs from the awful Harry Potter films. The latest to clamber aboard the bandwagon is the ugly little ginger one; sorry I can’t remember his name. “”Of course trans-women are women” the sage told us, “everybody must accept that.” Yes, Ginger, of course we do…

    Rowling’s name had been adopted by schools and used as house names. Now she’s being un-personed. Blimey, it doesn’t take long.

    At the time of the French revolution they began by decapitating statues.
    Robespierre was the executioner in chief. The man who pointed the finger. Hundreds went to the guillotine on his say so. A truly poisonous little man.
    These days we’ve got a modern equivalent; a sort of Wokespierre.
    There’s no one organisation. It’s in the media, it’s in the police, it’s infesting parliament. You defy it at your peril.

    The BBC are the main proponents of this dangerous cultural sickness. They, more than anyone else, are stirring the pot and pointing the finger. Egging the mob on to greater deeds of violence.
    But eventually, when the dust has settled, just like the French revolution, there will be a reckoning.

    And we all know what happened to Robespierre…

    Katie Hopkins after last weekend wrote about double standards in policing

    Policing of black Britain: stand back, hands off, let them do as they please as they gather en masse, vandalize and attack.

    Policing of white Britain: patrol speech, arrest for wrong-thought, and send drones to film dog-walkers in the hills during lockdown.

    The division has been there for a long time, but this hypocrisy has been brought into plain sight, for all to see.

    That is a kind of simple way of putting it .. but I don’t entirely think it is a race thing cos it seems that police have a go soft attitude on certain white areas too, say some council estates, some gypsy camps etc.
    As well as against green-protesters & antifa.

    Two reasons all of this this happened yesterday…

    1. The police did not do their job last week, but ran away, craven cowards in the face of the raving BLM/Antifa mob. I don’t blame the individual police officers, because they were totally abandoned by their senior officers.

    2. Heads of police forces basically said that, ‘if we’re faced by a big crowd of BLM/Antifa thugs, we will run away again’ (take note, especially, Essex Police Chief Constable Ben-Julian Harrington).

    So, essentially, a green light was given for BLM/Antifa to desecrate war memorials, statues, whatever, at will. Hence the response of many sensible citizens to try to protect these monuments, inevitably (just as BLM/Antifa has them in great numbers) encouraging a small minority of trouble-makers to participate.

    Why the hell does the MSM ignore the basic facts in front of them ? – if the police had done, and continued to do, their job, then the events of yesterday would not have happened. What would have happened was that BLM/Antifa would have carried out, as they had already planned to do, a massive further riot in London, and probably elsewhere.

    But that was not the headlines the police and media wanted.

    And the problem is…… what do they do over the next few weeks as BLM/Antifa step up their riots (sorry, ‘peaceful protests’) ? Are they going to tell BLM/Antifa that, under no circumstances are they going to be allowed to deface/damage/destroy any further monuments in the UK ? That absolutely no police officer in the UK will kneel down in front of any threats, physical or, especially, political, from anyone ?

    Given their performance so far, I would hazard a guess that the answer to these questions is a big, resounding ‘NO’.

    But the clock is ticking. A simple answer might be that ‘protests’ will only be allowed in wide open spaces – e.g. wholly contained in Hyde Park – and not in the city streets, where flashpoints are easy to create/take advantage of.

    The police moan and whinge that politicians must not interfere in their operational activities – but do I hear of any high-level police activity, across the UK, to prevent all of this happening again ?

    Sickening. Absolutely no bunch of thugs, no matter who they are, must be allowed to win in this country.

    In 2018 a third of prisoners in US jails were black, and ” among those ages 35 to 39, for example, about one-in-twenty black men were in state or federal prison in 2018 “. And I shouldn’t think they were incarcerated for nicking sherbert from the local shop !

    Honestly ? I was brought up with the mantra “everyone is born equal” (yes, I know – and some are more equal than others), but during my lifetime the contact I’ve had with ethnics has been minimal, mainly through my career in the NHS. It was noticeable during this time, that despite being polite and worklike, there was a distinct lack of ‘wanting to be friends’, by them, and more than one of my white colleagues said the same, it was evident that most of the black staff (I hasten to add not all, but most) had the proverbial chip on their shoulder, and yet my work colleagues and I worked in administration whereas the BAMEs were in the more revered position of clinicians ! Not exactly the downtrodden section of that community, but nevertheless still on the defensive.

    I think whatever we do in this country to ‘appease’, it will never be enough for them, they are a race with this huge ‘chip’ and defensive attitude and are resentful that they too weren’t born white.

    BBC lies about Churchill…..promoting the socialist’s black propaganda that he sent in troops to gun down miners….

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-29701767

    ‘Treatment of strikers

    Churchill’s reputation as being anti-union primarily stems from an incident in 1910.

    His handling of the Tonypandy Riots that year was the source of much controversy and invited ill-feeling towards him in south Wales for the rest of his life.

    His grandson even had to defend Churchill’s actions as late as 1978, when Prime Minister James Callaghan referenced “the vendetta of your family against the miners of Tonypandy”.

    The riots had erupted in November 1910 in the south Wales town because of a dispute between workers and the mine owners, culminating in strikes that ultimately lasted almost a year.

    When the strikers clashed with local police, Churchill – then home secretary – sent in soldiers.

    That’s a complete lie…the troops were never used…here’s The Guardian at the time with a strong defence of Churchill’s ‘life-saving’….

    ‘Mr Churchill was violently attacked in yesterday’s Times for a decision which in all probability saved many lives. It needed some courage after the Chief Constable had asked for troops to stop the troops which were on their way and to send policemen instead. But, as usual, the brave course was also the wise one….One can imagine what would have happened if the soldiers instead of the policemen had come on the rioters while they were pillaging. Bayonets would have been used instead of truncheons; the clumsier methods of the soldiers would have exasperated the crowds, and instead of a score of cases for the hospital there might have been as many for the mortuary.’

    Here’s The Times complaining about the failure of Churchill to use troops…

    ‘The Chief Constable of Glamorgan…felt already on Monday night that the police could not cope with the situation alone, and applied to the local military authorities for troops. Yesterday, it appears, both cavalry and infantry were despatched by train for South Wales, but were stopped at Swindon in consequence of a consultation between the Home Secretary and Mr. Haldane. It was thought preferable to send more police instead and to hold back the troops….The renewed rioting late last night seems to have been of a most determined character, and if loss of life occurs, which we fear is more than possible, the responsibility will lie with the Home Secretary….Mr. Churchill hardly seems to understand that an acute crisis has arisen, which needs decisive handling. The rosewater of conciliation is all very well in its place, but its place is not in face of a wild mob drunk with the desire of destruction.’

    Seeing as I have no interest whatsover in Netflix, or any streaming service for that matter, (I am constantly alert to Amazon trying to ‘auto-prime’ me), that can’t be true.

    The BBC aso lies about Trump…who knew?…No, not the 4 or 5 years they’ve spent falsely claiming he was a Russian agent but that he was not interested in uniting his country.

    When he made a speech at the Rose Garden [above video] and then went to the Church the BBC attacked him for not saying anything in the speech that would bring the country together in love and unity…though you think proclaiming your desire to bring law and order back to the streets of America so that the citizens could enjoy peace and security might be considered something that all Americans would rally around. Oddly the BBC do not think the Democrat’s or BLM’s attempts to polarise and divide America are in any way at odds with the BBC’s desire for ‘unity’.

    The Rose Garden speech followed almost immediately the below speech at The Kennedy Space Centre the day before….which, I don’t know, seems specifically targeted at a unifying message to all Americans…here’s some ‘controversial’ comments that show what a divisive President Trump is….and oh yes…also expressing great sympathy for George Floyd and family…not something the BBC gives him credit for…

    https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-statements/remarks-president-trump-kennedy-space-center/

    ‘Before going further on this exciting day for all America in space, I want to say a few words about the situation in Minnesota. The death of George Floyd on the streets of Minneapolis was a grave tragedy. It should never have happened. It has filled Americans all over the country with horror, anger, and grief.

    Yesterday, I spoke to George’s family and expressed the sorrow of our entire nation for their loss. I stand before you as a friend and ally to every American seeking justice and peace. And I stand before you in firm opposition to anyone exploiting this tragedy to loot, rob, attack, and menace. Healing, not hatred; justice, not chaos are the mission at hand. (Applause.)

    The police officers involved in this incident have been fired from their jobs. One officer has already been arrested and charged with murder. State and federal authorities are carrying out an investigation to see what further charges may be warranted, including against, sadly, the other three.

    In addition, my administration has opened a civil rights investigation, and I have asked the Attorney General and the Justice Department to expedite it.

    I understand the pain that people are feeling. We support the right of peaceful protesters, and we hear their pleas. But what we are now seeing on the streets of our cities has nothing to do with justice or with peace.

    The memory of George Floyd is being dishonored by rioters, looters, and anarchists. The violence and vandalism is being led by Antifa and other radical left-wing groups who are terrorizing the innocent, destroying jobs, hurting businesses, and burning down buildings.

    The main victims of this horrible, horrible situations are the citizens who live in these once lovely communities. The mobs are devastating the life’s work of good people and destroying their dreams. Right now, America needs creation, not destruction; cooperation, not contempt; security, not anarchy. And there will be no anarchy. Civilization must be cherished, defended, and protected. The voices of law-abiding citizens must be heard, and heard very loudly.

    We cannot and must not allow a small group of criminals and vandals to wreck our cities and lay waste to our communities. We must defend the rights of every citizen to live without violence, prejudice, or fear.

    We support the overwhelming majority of police officers who are incredible in every way and devoted public servants. They keep our cities safe, protect our communities from gangs and drugs, and risk their own lives for us every day.

    No one is more upset than fellow law enforcement officers by the small handful who fail to abide by their oath to serve and protect. My administration will stop mob violence and will stop it cold.

    It does not serve the interests of justice or any citizen of any race, color, or creed for the government to give into anarchy, abandon police precincts, or allow communities to be burned to the ground. It won’t happen.

    Those making excuses or justifications for violence are not helping the downtrodden, but delivering new anguish and new pain.

    From day one of my administration, we have made it a top priority to build up distressed communities and revitalize our crumbling inner cities.

    We fought hard with Senator Tim Scott and many others to create Opportunity Zones, helping to draw a surge of new investment to the places in our country that need it most. We must all work together as a society to expand opportunity and to create a future of greater dignity and promise for all of our people. We must forge a partnership with community leaders, local law enforcement, and the faith community to restore hope.

    Radical-left criminals, thugs, and others all throughout our country and throughout the world will not be allowed to set communities ablaze. We won’t let it happen. It harms those who have the least. And we will be protecting those who have the least.

    The leadership of the National Guard and the Department of Justice are now in close communication with state and city officials in Minnesota. And we’re coordinating our efforts with local law enforcement all across our nation.

    In America, justice is never achieved at the hands of an angry mob. I will not allow angry mobs to dominate. It won’t happen. It is essential that we protect the crown jewel of American democracy: the rule of law and our independent system of justice. Every citizen in every community has the right to be safe in their workplace, safe in their homes, and safe in our city streets.

    This is the sacred right of all Americans that I am totally determined to defend and will defend. My administration will always stand against violence, mayhem, and disorder.

    We will stand with the family of George Floyd with the peaceful protesters and with every law-abiding citizen who wants decency, civility, safety, and security.

    We are working toward a more just society, but that means building up, not tearing down; joining hands, not hurling fists; standing in solidarity, not surrendering to hostility.

    Moments ago, as we witnessed the launch of two great American astronauts into space, we were filled with the sense of pride and unity that brings us together as Americans. That same spirit which powered our astronauts to the Moon has also helped lift our country to ever greater heights of justice and opportunity throughout our history.

    So today, as we mark a renewed commitment to America’s future in space, a tremendous commitment it is. Let us also commit to a brighter future for all of our citizens right here on Earth.

    When Americans are united, there is nothing we cannot do. From day one of my administration, we put America first. ‘

    Don’t know about you but I reckon that’s pretty much a speech trying to bring America together and to heal wounds.

    Shame the BBC is entirely fixated on doing the opposite, intent solely on creating division and hate in America towards their President and his supporters.

    BBC report on the demonstration in London yesterday

    London protests: More than 100 arrests after violent clashes with police

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-53037767

    “More than 100 people have been arrested following violent protests in London on Saturday, the Met Police has said.

    Police were attacked by demonstrators, some of whom were far-right activists, after thousands gathered saying they were protecting statues…|

    “A statement from the London Ambulance Service said it had treated 15 patients, including two police officers, for injuries at the protests.”

    So that’s 2 police officers injured neither of whom had to go to hospital as against 24 Police officers injured in the recent BLM/Antifa rampage. Also no property appears to have been destroyed, no windows smashed. property vandalised etc. etc. etc.

    But according to the BBC this event was far more serious!

    An absolutely perfect example of BBC’s ability to rewrite history, show their bias and pick sides.

This has been the same throughout this chinese virus story so far. She, a so-called, “Carer” visiting elderly residents locally and spreading anything contracted by her and her family. But, ‘what the hell, this is only the UK’. A responsible person should ring the police who, I suspect, may agree that a ‘Carer’ should be held to a higher level of compliance with the lock down rules due to the age and condition of her, ‘clientele’. But no. I won’t. Mainly due to the law’s lack of interest. The ‘Carers’ live in man friend had been living with her for over five years permanently without declaring same to the landlord (or the DHSS), both had no interest when informed. So, no, I won’t ring the police. A waste of my time. Just symptomatic of the UK’s now, law and justice ‘system’.

      Monuments and plaques are more about the people who erect them, not those whom they commemorate.

      The museum in Bristol currently housing the Colston statue wants to keep the ‘heroic’ graffiti on it. Maybe Sadiq (descendant of slaver Kublai) Khan should protect the ‘wee-ed’ wall with glass to preserve the ‘cowardly’ stain of right-wing thuggery?

    It’s the Lockdown, stupid.

    It’s important not to miss the fact that much of the motivation for young people suddenly turning to street demos and taking a pop at the cops is in reality neither racial injustice-based nor much to do with an interest in the historic persona of public bronze statuary.

    It’s the Lockdown, stupid.

    The magnitude of damage done to the economy, society and culture multiplies as each week goes by.

    The semi-superstitious social distancing regulations now being enforced, by a government, buffeted by a hostile media, that has made colossal misjudgements, simply act to increase fear, suspicion and paranoia in the population. The government backs off any confrontation where it finds resistance from teacher unions, lefty journos and race demonstrators, and instead brands the quiet majority as the potential plague carriers.

    I sense the young people on the streets realise, perhaps subconsciously, how bleak their future will now become.

    Some of them may now chant black lives matter – theirs’ won’t. No jobs, no more welfare, no future…

    Big bad Boris to blame…? Or is he really just a big blow hard toothless softy and the real blame for trashing their future will in the hands of their lazy politically motivated teachers and their lefty media heroes?

    Just been down town. The madness continues, the purpose of the 15 metres of barriers down the side of the road becomes clear, it is to enforce ‘social distancing’ between people and cars.

    I have long though that there must be some poor soul in ONS adding up every couple of yards that councils call bike lanes so that a minister can announce that we now have another 100 miles of cycle path, (but in 10,000 fragments). Now they will have another little task.

    There must have been more risk in those council workmen putting up the barriers than any risk that their action has mitigated.

    I will say it again, is there anyone under the age of 60 with a working brain? Did ‘Sonic the Hedgehog’ carry subliminal messages to make them all dumb?

    2pm in news “Man arrested for urinating (near) Palmer memorial”
    They didn’t Labour the point.
    but is that really news ?

    I’m sure that last weekend at the BLM protests some white/black people urinated inconsiderately given the present situation , re toilets being closed,
    … but I don’t want any of them arrested
    i do want genuine criminals like stabbers, bike throwers etc. to be arrested.

    revised totals for yesterday
    now “None of the officers injuries are serious.”
    “Total number of police officers injured – 23”
    “arrests 113”

    I say it’s a big crime of omission not to mention the number of protesters injured or in hospital.
    And also to put an arrest total which implies zero were BLM people.

      And the new figures now show that instead of the original 2 injuries reported by police officers they are now spookily almost exactly the same number of police officers as were injured at the previous BLM stunt (Although rather more seriously in that case!)…

      You have to consider carefully the words. “None of the officers injuries are serious”

      Quite possibly PTSD or any other symptom leading to a couple of weeks on the sick or just trying to balance the books?

              I’m socially distancing myself from the MSM as well as the BBC so I gather that the event in Central London on Saturday had all the public order bits to crush white people – who plod seems to be less scared of than coloured yoot .

              I wonder is the same plod ‘manager’ was in charge of both? Is there still a police commissioner ? I mainly pick up bits from twitter but she doesn’t seem to be up front on law and order – talk about devalueing the office .

              But let’s face it – when plod started clapping on Westminster bridge – including the commissioner – it was inevitable that they’d start bending the knee to a third world kidult rabble …..

              Fortunately the 20000 plod being recruited across the country is a spit in the ocean As far as upholding the law is concerned but policing is all symbolism And false virtue signalling now instead of law enforcement . I don’t consent any more as I don’t see them as neutral anymore ….

      Placing the government on the horns of a dilemna worthy of a forensic genius like Starmer – oh, in fact this bind was constructed by him and his supporters in unions and media.

      And Boris, despite his evil genius advisor, didn’t realise that putting public sector workers on indefinite full pay furlough might be a squiffy policy decision.

        Don’t get me started….they should never have been on full pay if not working..
        They will be the first to fly away on holiday leaving self employed and private sector at home trying to earn money to continue paying their bloody wages and pensions
        Don’t hear a clap for those paying taxes….just those that take

      As children have more chance of being killed by lightning I expect all these mothers who are scared of sending their children back to school will never let them go outside, at least, not until lightning is either banned or there’s a cure found for it.

      Same goes for the teachers who are frightened to go back to the safest jobs in the land. Good job our supermarket checkout girls are made of better stuff.
      Or maybe they haven’t finished the spare bedroom yet.

    The furlough will be a problem – the ending will be seen as ‘heartless Tories ‘ whatever the circumstances – with food banks – heat or food choices – and ‘genuine hardship ‘ again whatever the circumstance s -.

    The BBC will be joyful in leading the charge – doing the Labour Partys ‘job for them . The chancellor will go from ‘favoured ‘ to ‘baddie ‘ and weak Tory backbenchers will come out of the woodwork –
    Meanwhile project fear will be fully fired up as the ‘extension ‘ period counts down with more doom and gloom we’ve even seen with the Chinese Virus ….

    Which may well be on the way back too .

    It’s gloomy but I’m a pessimist – so if things are better that’s a happy story …..

    What do you understand reading this sky news banner while they do an article about yesterday’s demonstrations.

    Over 100 arrests by police as far right protest.

    It might not be word perfect as I can’t remember the exact wording but it’s as near as I can remember.

    Does that mean no (or almost no) blm were arrested, only the extreme far right thug hooligans.
    I know one was arrested for weeing near a plaque about a policeman killed by enrichers (I think the public toilets are all closed) and I saw lots of loving blm members attacking old veterans and others who went to try and protect our statues from these enrichers.
    The extreme far right thug who was caught on camera picking up litter and putting it in a bag was lucky not to be arrested for theft of litter or some other made up charge. He’s the one who said the police tried to stop them coming to London by saying the demo was off.

    I see in Breitbart they are reporting that the book burning is starting.

    I’m also sick of every politician siding with the ones causing the destruction and violence towards property and all who are not left of Lenin, from the slimy mayor (peace be upon him) to the two faced labour and hopeless Tory virtue signallers who are frightened to say anything that is not pc or that is the truth.

    I suppose I have some sympathy with the blm lot who were hoping for a proper riot as they probably need a new tv, laptop and some trainers.
    I read, possibly on here, that in America, the blacks are now complaining that shops are no longer opening in their communities as they are sick of being looted. In Georgia or somewhere like that.

    Two articles laying out the uncomfortable truth about recent events, the BLM extremism and Covid19…..the BBC and its reporting on both lie at the heart of both articles and the failure to properly analyse and address what is happening. The BBC has dominated the narratives and crushed all alternate views and opinion…never mind it inventing new ‘facts’.

    Here’s Douglas Murray….
