The eve of the Tim Davie era . Will Mr Davie be the last chairman of the failing Far Left BBC in its current Marxist campaigning form ? Lets hope so. Apparently his first speech will be on Thursday when he will talk about ‘impartiality ‘ and keep a straight face – which is why he is paid the big bucks .
Meanwhile there are plans afoot to have a new British Broadcaster …
Start the Week 31 August 2020

You’re absolutely correct. The careful use of semantics is frustrating to observe. The media has it down to a fine art using terms that soften the tone of reality such as you point out, “undocumented” vs. the reality of illegal.
It makes me crazy to watch white people submit to all this crap….white guilt….and so easily fall into place. To quote a famous intellect…C’mon man !! ????
What, another piece of duplicitous sh……t being thrown at grown up people-the word Racism should now only apply to Black people. They are racist against White people-the majority whose country (United Kingdom) this is. How long have the Blacks lived here? My ancesters have been people of Britain for perhaps 2000 years, think we have a claim?
Some expensive virtue-signalling and time-wasting going on here. Expensive for the taxpayer, that is.
This Benger (woke idiot?) sounds a bit too full of himself, by half. Has he forgotten he’s nowt but a clerk?
And from what I can see above, Sarah Davies is not much better.
SPOKE TOO SOON: Was it smart of Halifax pensioner Doris Wainwright to say that Emily Maitlis “seems rather shallow”? Maybe not! In tonight’s programme, Newsnight’s hugely admired “lead presenter” sets out her intellectual credentials on a tour of her private boudoir — playing excitedly with her handbag collection, arranging her lipsticks in parallel rows and arguing with Naga Munchetty about who has the silliest taste in shoes. Don’t expect to hear much more from Dopey Doris!
Link for those interested, Mahyar Tousi is debating The BLM UK leader live at 7pm tonight.
https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCmbm72l60p3OH4aL4o7BFeA
What a surprise
“UPDATE: BLM leader, Sasha Johnson, has decided not to show up to tonight’s debate. ”
That complies with Normal libmob MO : Misrepresent/SmearLabel/Runaway
What’s she tweeting ? … ah she’s been suspended
“Sasha is claiming this wasn’t actually her account. ”
I caught the end of it and wondered where this character was ????
If this tweet is her then she’s the racist, just like Naga is really the racist ????????
Looks like our sash shouldnt have had the second bottle of red . Bless
Same as two weeks ago
She stood up Rikki Doolan for the debate with him
He’s a white pastor in an African money making church
(His account is also suspended)
Debate isn’t really a blm thing from what I’ve seen. Now if it was a shouting contest to mob handedly impose their will on others they might be interested.
it’s Monday so it’s Afua Hirsch’s Africa night on BBC4
Only the painter prog with guy with the big Afro is not about Africa
What’s the “comedy”? One of those woke lot claiming that maths is inherently racist or that we should ban reading in case any kids are later exposed to ideas? I have a colleague who keeps virtue signalling this rubbish because it hasn’t affected him yet but I’m waiting with anticipation for his reaction when the Guardian demands a ban on cricket (‘imperialist’) or his local authority bans shops from selling wine on the off chance that someone from the mosque complains.
Banning cricket in India will go down a storm.
Of course the Indian population will never complain about cricket but it only takes 2 or 3 loud and guilty white student activists to make the likes of the BBC ban/cancel things on behalf of people from Sudan. As with the LGBT vs Islam debate, the hypocrisy will forever remain unexplained.
So the unions are getting ready to take industrial action if the government “forces” people back to work then.
So who do they think have been manufacturing their food, manning the stores, generating their power, catching their fish, emptying their bins etc. etc. For the past few months or do only London office workers and teachers and lecturers matter?
Just more anti Boris shit as per usual. Absolutely disgusting selfish behaviour.
And how long do they expect the people who ARE going to work pay for their upkeep?
“That my country should presently be helmed by a rapacious real estate developer,” Queenan says, “should come as no surprise…
I hope he helms his canoe over a waterfall.
Are the Black Broadcasting Corporation reporting this act of bare naked murderous racism?
No.
Would they if the colours were reversed?
You betcha, morning noon and night.

TPA Talks. Interview Barry Hearn Sports Commentator ‘Slams the BBC’
The TPA support all of us taxpayers against the BBC TV license and its virtual monopoly of UK Radio and TV. The BBC is well past its own sell by date.
PLUS: Find out which QUANGO’s (like the BBC) should also be axed and why…
These include: Channel 4, Covent Garden Market Authority (CGMA), Pay review bodies, British Business Bank (BBB), National Citizen Service (NCS), Social Science Research Committee (SSRC), Low Pay Commission (LPC), Literature Wales, Design Commission Wales, Creative Scotland.
TPA are asking for more to be put on this list to which could save the country billions £. There are literally hundreds of Quangos set up by Blair and Brown across the country, waiting for Corbyn to emerge triumphant. Alas no more need for these civil service left overs.
Bonfire of the Quangos!
Phillip
Sorry but i have a jaundiced view about quango burning – politicians announce them every so often but they perform the same function as the Lords –
Bribes and rewards for bubble members – makes people feel important – fees – expenses – staff – car – so they get cut but then grow back …
Fedup2, not quite sure I agree with your there. The house of Lords should be posted by people that have delivered something for this country in terms of pubic benefit for (say) ten years stay. If we ad a clause that we can un-elect them by public vote that will focus the mind into a better second chamber. In my humble opinion, it needs reform as does the BBC.
Fedup2, not quite sure I agree with your there. The house of Lords should be posted by people that have delivered something for this country in terms of pubic benefit for (say) ten years stay. If we add a clause that we can un-elect them by simple public vote that will focus the mind into a better second chamber. In my humble opinion, it needs reform as does the BBC rather urgently..
Phillip
I would simply abolish the upper house unless there were direct votes and fixed terms -kicking every one currently in there out . we should be be financing unelected legislator – it’s an offence to democracy – not that the UK really has one …..
My plan would never happen because of the personal interests of those who vote – come back Cromwell…. have another go .
Philip, I seem to recall that Francis Maude as a Minister, with David Cameron’s approval, made a commitment to that effect way back in the autumn of 2010.
It never happened. I see that in 2012, Maude claimed that 106 had gone. But c/o Parliament UK …. “HOW MANY QUANGOS ARE THERE? Quango is not an official term and establishing how many there are depends on the definition used. The Cabinet Office … ”
I think there are more in existence now than existed in 2010. Some estimates suggest 1200 ie. DataBlog in the Guardian of all places. That is 300 more than in 2010.
Try to imagine what kind of thought process happens in this person’s head, especially before the final hammer tap.
Think I get it now after watching a few times, they’ve swapped their white pillow cases for black hats and are now more open about their anti black activities.
Boris and Al Beeb are treating the British public with contempt .
Time for both to go.
I have serious misgivings about our Priti useless Border Farce and the high record of illegal and unregistered migrants that have entered the country this year and doubts about Boris getting us out of the EU and rid of Al Beeb .
We have ‘been sold a pup’.
“There is a great difference between a critic who wishes you well and a critic who wishes you only ill.”
BBC , CNN, SKY, won’t be booking this fella ????
I think that gentlemen would get on really well with Mr Trump .and I think he will be voting in November ….over 150 thousand views …
“We are NOT oppressed.” seems to be quite a popular sentiment

Ruth Davison doesn’t watch the BBC much – that’s the only explanation I can come up with for writing a shameful piece about the future of The BBC in The telegraph .she seems to have no idea how it has gone from plain bias to a campaign vehicle for all things Marxist and non British whitee.
Although she has admitted being a ‘journalist ‘ employed by the BBC before jumping over to be a red Tory .
I don’t think she’d like this site …
Further to Stewgreen at 2038.
We alighted by chance on the BBC 4 programme ‘African Renaissance- when art meets power-Kenya’ presented by a not unattractive lady called Adua Hirsch.
It is unquestionably the most concertedly anti-British, racist, hatchet job I think I have ever heard and seen in a long time.
There is not one iota of even pretence of balance. Her tone of voice, sneers, and smiles tell us she absolutely hates the British and everything they did in Kenya. Her bias extends to her sneering of modern tourists buying momentos of African animals made of wood. FFS. A modern building in Nairobi that looks like the Birmingham rotunda is celebrated. Everything post independence is wonderful.
I once looked up definitions of racism. The one I remember is ‘an inherent belief in the superiority of one race above another’. Adua falls straight into the trap, glorying in various tribal aspects, cultures, skills, and by definition decrying others, especially anything British.
What’s not mentioned by this disgustingly biased load of cr** is this. We have three very good female friends who came to Britain from Kenya. They all came AFTER independence.
Not quite the narrative or the vote of confidence that would suit Adua or her BBC paymasters.
But why am I watching? Because, being broad minded, I am quite happy to be informed, entertained, and educated. But all the seditious BBC want to do is propagandise and brainwash.
I agree but it should be possible to be positive about other cultures without “sneering” at British culture.
A different example is Israeli’s admiration for British culture and that they share their innovations with Britain but Israel’s positve contributions are rarely reported . See http://www.verygoodnewsisrael.blogspot.com
The situation re Covid is slowly revealing its real incarnation. The governments of the World and the UK in particular have backed themselves into a corner. The last word now has been wholly placed into the hands of the scientific class. A class who are virtually 100% left wing. Everything they say is the law. No dissent is allowed. Common man has been conditioned by the MSM in particular by the BBC to accept this. The penalty for disagreeing is ridicule and unpersoning. Common man is obliged by peer pressure to support them in every way or face ostracism.
The police and local authorities bow down to their every command and are therefore already lost. The government are stupefied by the creature they have unleashed.
We need to reject all they stand for and stand up for sanity or risk oblivion and slavery. We need bravery and iron will. It is now the only way to smash this slide into a future in chains.
Yes. I agree with some it. I still cannot understand the events of March and April other than a panic in the West induced by a belief that covid was a bioweapon attack . The rest of the world just went along with it. The Chinese must be laughing .I now think it was an accidental leak maybe but in no way deliberate although the CCP made the best of it.
The resultant mess is where we are.
The tendency to attribute agency to governments as if they are infallible is never one that history bears out.
To be human is to make mistakes.,
It’s Climate Change that has cleaned out the decent scientists from government funded institutions, leaving corrupt slime balls. If a scientists isn’t a slime ball, they get pushed out and retire or join the GWPF Academic Advisory Council. Those scientists who use the scientific method still exist. See the links below.

More Telegraph wind –
‘The BBC’s new director-general is planning to tackle perceived Left-wing bias in the corporation’s comedy shows, the Telegraph can disclose.
Tim Davie believes the BBC’s comedy output is seen as too one-sided and needs a radical overhaul in the coming months, senior sources revealed.
The BBC has long faced accusations that its comedy shows on radio and television are unfairly biased against the Tories, Donald Trump and Brexit.
In his first speech as director general on Thursday, Mr Davie will set out plans to restore “trust and confidence” in the BBC by better reflecting all sides of the political divide.
Part of the measures could see a number of shows axed, but senior sources at the BBC stressed that no decisions had yet been made, adding that Mr Davie would only set out a “direction of travel” in his speech.
However, it is expected that some of the worst-offending shows will be taken off the schedules in the longer term, senior sources said.‘>..
It goes on a bit but it looks like there could be chunks of 30 minutes of silence where their ‘comedy’ programmes used to be …. but I doubt it – the BBC is far to infested to change .
Too late. It is over for the BBC. It has treated it’s core audience with contempt and will now pay the price. It went for the young and the young do not want it. I think they are afraid now.
There is no need to wait for the government to act on the BBC. If enough people cancel their payments for the Licence Fee there is nothing that the BBC can do about it and with their income slashed they will crumble within months. The government won’t lift a finger to help them. The time for mass action is now.
Too late. It is over for the BBC. It has treated it’s core audience with contempt and will now pay the price. It went for the young and the young do not want it. I think they are afraid now.

“Does anyone believe there will be less violence in America if Donald Trump is re-elected?”
***
It’s a quote, with a picture of Joe Biden.
Because the bbc is impartial. Apparently.
Getting Jon past Nick from up Pelosi’s behind likely would require anaesthesia too.
Lyn sounds very bbc.
#CCBGB but one is sure Katty could spin it.
Still bitter after all these years.
Biden actually managed to read a whole sentence from an autocue at the 10th take. Presidential material indeed.
That awful pic of a seriously demented, doddery old man looks just like a death mask from some some excavated git in a hot shitehole in North Africa!
All you need, is a sad, raddled old bitch like Billary to condone the death man, and you’ve lost about a squillion votes in an instance!
Bring it on Clintons, you failed in everything except cheating the American Public, like Barry Ob did.
Have just been watching Strike and apart from the usual supply of BAMES it hasn’t seemed too bad, in spite of who wrote it.
But then there was the trailer for a programme next week; Sue Perkins is travelling the USA Mexican border and we saw a short clip of the terrible conditions for Mexicans trying to cross the border.
It couldn’t be anything to do with a presidential election, could it?
BBC News Channel, 9pm: So who do the racist BBC turn to for an unbiased assessment of the effect of the riots on the US election?
Why, a totally ‘impartial’ National Race and Ethnicity Reporter (i.e. grievance stirrer) who reckons it’s all going swimmingly for Creepy Joe, and Orange Man Bad; followed by a Democrat Congresswoman – Orange Man Bad.
So no ‘balance’ at all, just 2 Trump opponents given a very friendly questioning – actually being fed lines in some instances. You can even hear our Katty making cooing, sympathetic noises in the background during the long, uninterrupted replies.
10 pm BBC 1 news and Clive Myrie says it has been a torrid summer for the Government. In whose opinion, Mr Myrie? It may have been difficult and it certainly hasn’t been helped by the BBC.
Clive Myrie used to be quite reasonable, before he was told to become a black victim.
The BBBC have a special room, where bias is injected into everyone who ‘works’ there – it’s sound=proofed, and has some sort of rap noise coming from speakers everywhere.
The ‘worker’, or autocue reader sits in a comfy chair and is told to nod, and an electric current is fed into their bums when anything non-woke is mentioned.
The programming lasts an hour, and after that, they all troop over to the Langham for a soft drink and a debrief.
Phrasing bbc styly.
Well, this is rather disturbing.
After a lot of faffing about I eventually found the crowd funding site supporting Piers Corbyn’s case. I made a (small) donation and thought job done.
Within twenty minutes I received an email from the crowd funder site telling me that my money would be refunded within 7 to 10 working days.
They’ve closed it down!
I’ve been in contact with several others and we’ve all experienced the same thing. The donation page has disappeared and Crowd Funder won’t answer questions.
This is becoming sinister.
Perhaps Piers being fined was fake news !
No it’s not.
He was arrested while I was there and it’s not just the totally untrustworthy MSM that have said he’s to be fined, so has Piers. The money we’ve donated isn’t to pay the fine, it’s to pay for legal representation. I did a similar thing for Tommy Robinson. An injustice is an injustice, whatever their politics and whoever is involved.
When they come to arrest you, BRISSLES, for not paying the telly tax, we’ll try to get a crowd funder up and running…
Who knows what might happen to it?
Brotherly love…………
A little girl was leaning into a lion’s cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the collar of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, all under the eyes of her screaming parents:
A biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain, the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl, and the biker brings the girl to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly.
BBC reporter, Emily Maitlis, had watched the whole event.
Emily, addressing the Harley rider says. “Sir, this was the most gallant and bravest thing I’ve seen a man do in my whole life.”
The Harley rider replies. “Why, it was nothing, really. The lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger, and acted as I felt right.”
Maitlis. “Well, I’ll make sure this won’t go unnoticed. I’m a BBC journalist, you know and tonights news will run this story.
So, what do you do for a living, and what political affiliation do you have?”
The biker replies. “I’m an ex British Army veteran, a Conservative and I voted for Brexit.”
Maitles leaves quickly.
Later that evening the biker turns on BBC Newsnight to see if it indeed brings news of his actions.
Newsnight Headline: British right wing potential war criminal, assaults African immigrant and steals his lunch.

“Caged Whipsnade migrant attacked and starved by extreme far-right activist”.
Rule 1: Migrants not immigrants
Rule 2: Only migrants with settled status are ‘British’, otherwise there are no British people.
Rule 3: Migrants do not have origins, (they are after all British people that haven’t yet achieved settled status), if they did some might want them sent back there.
Rule 4: The ‘left’ doesn’t have a ‘wing’ as everyone is of the left, except for the racist bigots of the extreme right-wing, like Boris Johnson, Theresa May, David Cameron and John Major. (Lady Thatcher is so extreme that far-right fascists like Cameron disowned her).
Rule 5: Migrants should be described as local if possible, e.g. ‘Acton man, Wajih Deng, (picked up off Dover last week), complains about lack of decent Wi-Fi. Open Reach apologises’.
Good God. A Tory M.P. is finally saying what we’ve all known for years..
For years people on this site have been urging others to conceal their direct debits and refuse to pay the License Fee. I finally took the plunge a few months ago and I urge others to do the same and to urge all theircrelatives and friends to do the same. If enough people refuse to pay their is nothing the BBZc can do about it , the government won’t lift a finger to help it and the BBC will crumble within weeks.
My wife was face-timing her brother this evening, wishing him a happy birthday. He’s in his late forties and a partner in a firm of solicitors in Central London. He is single, lives in Brixton, enjoys travel, bit of a bon viveur, loads of disposable income, a few celebrity friends and aquaintances. He’s good and generous company.
He also reads the Guardian, holidays with his ex-partner and their daughter in her family property in France every year and spends a fortune on trying to look as if he hasn’t. He’d certainly be considered left-leaning politically but luckily his Ulster Protestant heritage provides some much needed balance, and this conservative side of him has become much more noticeable in recent years.
He has long been an avid Radio 4 listener, falling asleep with it on at night and listening to it even more while he’s been on furlough. Well, he did. Not now.
His first words to me this evening were, ” I cancelled my TV licence yesterday”. Why? “I was listening to the radio the other evening when a programme about code-switching amongst black professionals came on. I’m tired of it, had enough. I’m tired of being blamed for everything simply because I’m white and male, they never let up. I’ve cancelled the licence”. He’s been considering it for the last couple of years apparently. Fair play to you mate I say.
Now if people like my brother-in-law are deserting the bBBC, and for the right reasons as well in his case, then surely they must be aware of it, surely they must realise that they really are on a downward spiral?
No, probably not, but by the time they do realise hopefully it’ll be too late anyway. If it isn’t already.
Initially puzzled, but after thinking carefully, I have worked out how it could be possible to decolonised the British Library.
First, London would have to be freed from British Colonial rule, becoming the Islamic Republic of Londonistan, under President Sadiq Aman Khan.
Then a decolonised British Library would have to be renamed Londonistan Library. Simples.
Rich – what a ‘lovely ‘ Story – and we can but hope that your brother In law Mentions – in passing – cancelling his licence to someone else who does the same .
I think – quietly – there’s a noticeable number of people just saying ‘enough ‘ with or without websites like this . But I don’t think the rabid group think at the BBC could ever realise what they are doing which is so wrong . It’s a Fundamentalist religion To them .
Just watched a news report about the Rishi Specials meals coming to an end. Various people interviewed about the success of it, and one was, surprise surprise a NURSE, who maintained she enjoyed them as it was a ‘good way of getting back to socialising’.
Well, pardon me, but whatever happened to the reports about nurses not being paid enough and having to resort to food banks to keep themselves and their families fed ? yet here is clearly one nurse who can afford to live and go out for a few meals.
Proves what a mockery the news is, or a few nurses cant budget properly.

White House challenger Joe Biden earlier condemned the violence at recent protests while blaming Mr Trump for making the country unsafe.

I remember contacting Sky in 2015 admonishing them on Joseph’s sneering and supercilious tone when speaking about NF and UKIP. I suggested she was in danger of being headhunted (back) by the bBC, but that never happened. Perhaps Sarpong will remedy that.

Sky don’t know what to do with her anymore.

Why? She’s advertising female pantie liners.
BBC News on-line provides most of the UK press front pages and presents us with some delicious juxtapositions.
The Telegraph, rather wistfully, suggests: ‘New director general threatens to axe ‘Left-wing’ BBC comedy’
We’ll believe that when we don’t see it.
Meanwhile the more down-to-earth Daily Star warns: ‘School crack-down, cough and you’re off! Pupils to be suspended for covid jokes’ That sounds about right.
The Daily Mail (among other papers) puts up a pic of ‘Adele at centre of storm over her African hairstyle’
Whilst the Guardian flies the flag for booby black footballer Marcus ‘Rashford’s new goal: to tackle UK food poverty’
Cultural Appropriation..? Another one of those one-way streets where only white people can be accused of transgression. What could be more English than football and school dinners we wonder?
Throw us more juxtapositions you say. I’ll try but it might be a little forced (like Adele into her Jamaican bikini).
The Mirror asserts ‘Britain’s Got Talent is back’, this country has talent? One begins to doubt it in light of the ‘i’ telling us: ‘Schools face huge test to help pupils catch up’ Not so bright then.
The Telegraph has: ‘Pupils face exam delay next summer’ whereas the Mail cautions: ‘The Diabetes Revolution: ‘Adults could be set target weight’ Yep, treat the kids like snowflakes and the adults like kids… how did we get to this?
Mark Wallace in the ‘i’ perhaps gives us a clue: ‘Quangos not politicians, are the problem’
Reinforcing the notion that our leaders have lost it, the same virtual organ has ‘Back to the office? Minister admits he has no target for staff’
What, not even a weight target?

GW,
A good article. Thank you.
The full text of the Telegraph article about BBC comedy policy
tweeted by the Opinion Editor of the New European
.. who’s quite angry.
Indeed Twitter is full of TRIGGERED wokes today shouting
“Lee Hurst and Jim Davidson trending, disgusting
the only true comedy is HATE towards the right” /sarc
Tx. Seems Timmeh has me blocked.
Does this mean that left wing comedians will be sacked or merely given new jokes whilst retaining their undeserved pay?
‘I say I say, have you heard the latest….?
Trump?
No ‘Farage…boom boom’.
Handpicked audience collapse in uncontrollable laughter.
Viz comic once did a one off comic strip about a far left comedian. If I recall correctly, his routine was basically just saying “Thatcher… what a c***” repeatedly. Later on some Tories offered him a lot of money to do an after dinner routine and he just changed his routine to “Gordon Brown… what a c***”.
I can imagine the likes of Nish Kumar doing likewise to maintain a steady BBC pay packet.
Edit: the Viz character was called Lenny Left and his Conservative Club routine at the end was a sexist and homophobic one (not one about Gordon Brown).
My fear is that the management at the beeb will indeed tinker at the edges of the biased bbc, just enough to say: see, we’ve fixed it, now leave the extortion tax alone.
Too little, too late. It must be smashed.
Yeh getting rid of a corrupt one sided Election Commission is really bad.

A Rule – If the guardian thinks it’s bad it must be good .
As the common sense people at Veterans for Britain said on 29 August:
“It is ludicrous for the Government to be giving this campaigning Blairite organisation any more chances as a public body.
Even pro-EU ex-ministers who created the Electoral Commission say it has become unfit and must be replaced.”
Utterly risible!
BBC R4 filling its air-waves with contempt for their listeners.
Bidon supporter: “There has been some rioting and looting but demonstrations have been mainly peaceful” – interviewee a few moments ago on Toady.
This form of blatant lying (or permitting a interviewee to blatantly lie without any question) is Rule 1 of the BBC Marxist playbook.
Wakey, wakey, BBC. Surely you must recognise that public discernment now demands obtaining news from other, more reliable sources elsewhere. And when that more truthful news is viewed alongside the BBC’s version of events, the blatant lies and distortions become very obvious.
Close the Marxist outfit down, immediately: it has become a joke!
G:
You are quite right. I did not catch this creature’s name, but he used to be a speechwriter for Sleepy Joe. As is now traditional, the £4 billion BBC could not track down a single Republican commentator.
The Democrat was allowed what amounted to a party political broadcast in favour of Joe Biden. None of his lies about Trump were challenged at all, in stark contrast to any Conservative who is usually interrupted after three words.
The BBC is unable to control its bias. They just don’t see it, and never will. They live in a bubble which is about to go pop!
Sometimes you simply cannot believe what you are reading from the BBC.
This is a article, as you imagine, a very anti Trump one. Plain and simple. Disgustingly biased piece. Sickening.

Here are some beauties from within from the BBC ……………..
The violence has come amid widespread, largely peaceful anti-racism protests
Lines drawn on law and order
Aleem Maqbool, BBC News, Kenosha
Throughout the summer, President Trump has referred to those taking to the streets across America as looters, rioters, anarchists and thugs. That is even though most of the demonstrations calling for an end to racial injustice, and to police brutality, have been peaceful.
But with the aggressive messaging on law and order coming from the White House, the battle lines have been drawn on this issue – one we will be hearing much more of over the next nine weeks.
Peaceful hey ???? Joke outfit.
Tucker exposes the threat – “if you dare to re-elect Donald Trump prepare for more rioting”

The entire 12 hours of the afternoon features just two images of white men
#1 Great Lives “Ernie Bevin, forgotten political giant”
#2 Phil Ball a red image of the Science Stories presenter.
Not the BBC – but life and death in London- from the evening standard
‘ Two Metropolitan Police officers have been accused of failing to protect a teenage girl when she tried to report domestic abuse claims weeks before she was killed by her boyfriend.
Katrina Makunova, 17, was stabbed through the heart during a tussle with county lines drug dealer Oluwaseyi Dada as their two-year romance was about to end.
The trainee beautician was knocked to the ground by Dada, falling on to the knife in her Versace handbag which she herself had brought to the confrontation in Camberwell on July 12, 2018.’
By the way – Mr Dada’s nickname is ‘Capone “ – do like a bit of vibrancy ….as well as the ‘falling onto her own knife ‘defence …..
This must be the trial, we mentioned this at his arrest/charging.
I think he bought her the knife. hmm maybe not.
“The kitchen knife that caused her death was hers and had, it seems, been brought to the scene by her in a handbag you had given her. “
Tsk! Tsk!
What is this once great country coming to when British citizen Katrina Makunova, an honest hard-working trainee beautician, kills herself by stabbing through her hard-earned Versace handbag, and honest, hard-working British retail distributor Oluwaseyi Dada is falsely accused of her murder?
Tsk! Tsk!
LBC’s Theo Usherwood “The average public school pupil is only 1% behind in their studies”
FFS that is a BS reporting
that makes it sound like somehow they have magically assessed every private school pupil.
That’s like someone who has paced the football field asserting they have measured it to the nearest millimetre.
There is no way they can say its not 2% , 3% 5% 10% etc
The best that they can say is public schools seem to have not fallen far behind, whereas government schools generally seem to be worse
and may on average be 1 to 3 months behind schedule.
#Blackwar intensifies: Black on White Attacks: Roll Call of victims:
‘South Africa Today’ News reports what MSM in SA and elsewhere will NOT report.
Glenn 63, and Vida 69, on their farm ‘Normandien’ were executed on 29 August. Nothing was taken, so it was apparently not a robbery. They were shot on arrival after an evening out.
Five black attackers broke down the door of Hilton Dowdall’s house,and stabbed him to death.
I shall not go on. There is on this page a long litany of attacks, assaults, brutality against whites in SA. This is a regular, daily pattern, designed -presumably- to drive whites out of their country.
While MSM ramble on about ‘white racism’, these killings and assaults, thousands since 1994, go completely unreported, as they don’t fit the ‘liberal’ narrative of ‘white man bad’, ‘black man victim’.
Unlike the ‘racism’ Afua Hirsh and the likes of David Lammy ramble on about, this is unfortunately usually a lot worse than ‘giving offense’; this is frequently fatal, often involves the most brutal torture and assult, and is NEVER reported by the MSM, either in SA or US/Britain/Europe.
In South Africa, white lives most definitely don’t matter. And haven’t ever since the country was handed over to the blacks.
All the commies who plotted and ‘protested’ against white South Africa, including that piece of crap Peter Hain, have the blood of all the dead white people on their hands. Maybe come judgement day, God will deal with them accordingly.

#Blackwar intensifies
RIP. Glenn and Vida Rafferty.
The irony is that CNN and BBC will ramble on for months, endlessly repeating the George Floyd and Jacob Blake mantras, while entirely ignoring fresh racially-motivated murders every day in South Africa. Never mind also, that Floyd and Blake had criminal records and were resisting arrest, while farm victims are invariable peaceful people, producing food for SA.
Do the MSM perhaps have an agenda?
I do wonder whether there are a number of stages that come before the farm attacks and daily murders of whites on farms. First is the saturation media coverage of ‘white injustices’ towards blacks, and black suffering (was like that in SA; now in the UK and Europe?)
Having engendered white guilt, the next stage might be the inflow of large numbers of ‘migrants’ to reduce the ratio of white to black in the UK, coupled to increasing campaigns by those already here (e.g. BLM) to ramp up white guilt. That is already happening.
Over years, as the numbers game changes, it does not become fanciful to imagine attacks on white farms in the UK, for any pretext conjured up; racist /’unequal’ land distribution comes to mind.
(Rhodesia/Zimbabwe should have been a warning to whites in SA, but -presumably due to the much larger numbers of whites in SA- this would have been dismissed as fanciful).
It is interesting to note that this year, the number of white births in the US was reputedly below that of other races. Another version of the story is that there are already fewer whites adults in the US than ‘others’. Whether either of these reports is true, I don’t know, but BLM have suddenly become very bold. The one truth seems to be that the numbers game will always be decisive.
This is the latest from John Ward at the Slog blog.
Note the troubles he’s having with his laptop. And even McAfee are in the enemy’s camp.
The only good news is that 50,000 people were at Piers Corbyn’s rally at the weekend. So at least I can take some comfort in knowing I’m not alone in wanting nothing to do with face masks or being injected with God knows what contaminants, called a vaccine.

Watch: BLM Radical Sasha Johnson Announces Creation of the ‘First Black-Led Political Party in the UK’
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2020/09/01/blm-radical-announces-the-first-black-led-political-party-in-the-uk/amp/
Reminds me of a Lethal Weapon film where Danny Glover goes into the Apartheid era South African embassy and enquires about emigrating to South Africa. I wonder what would happen if someone marched into the newly created black-led party offices and asked to join. Chased out in the same way I think.
SG,
I like it. All heading for the final confrontation for World domination (well out of my lifespan):
Islam v Communism.
Aka, Savagery v Deceit & mass savagery.
Not a lot between them. A fag paper in fact.
I’m really not sure where I would place my bets
A word of caution.
Maybe we ought to view mask wearing and hygiene issues differently and as a necessity when in the company of certain individuals who follow a different line of thinking.
“Antifa in Portland is a myth”
Clearly this is some sort of sickness? Is in contagious? Maybe the WHO and China ought to carry out research?
Context : That’s Jerry Nadler a Democrat (The Penguin)
July 27, 2020 The House Judiciary Committee Chairman, calls violence from Antifa in Portland a ‘myth’
A couple of days after he spoke
“Protests in Portland were declared a riot early Sunday as thousands breached a federal courthouse where federal agents are being stationed, according to police.”

Now a month later a known Antifa shot a Trump supporter dead
TalkRadio Caller Billy from Coventry talking about Coventry City council kicking out 17 coaches of illegals from the Britannia Inn there, cos the gov had sent them to the hotel without the government.
He was concerned about the cost of legal aid which he said is £625 flat fee per case.
Katie, in the U.S. of A., God bless her:
Says “I broke into America, involved multiple flight, and staying in quarantine”
I guess that means she found a legal backdoor.
11:30am Radio4 show was about University in Nigeria
we had Nigerian artists talking about how to get gay stuff and feminist stuff into their work.
It was followed by a trailer for another Nigeria show on Sunday.
3pm Half of a Yellow Sun Episode 1 of 2
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie’s powerful, heart-breaking novel dramatised by Janice Okoh.
BTW that prog is followed at 4pm by Book Club with a Nigerian author Oyinkan Braithwaite
By coincidence that author’book #MySistertheSerialKiller is @BBCRadio4’s book of the month in September!
Who are those three weirdoes talking to the old geezer in glasses?
And why did they turn off comments?
Why did they turn off comments? I suspect because the likes of me were calling out Mr Morgan for what he is; Foghorn Leghorn.
If Dr Hillary is still practicing as a GP, I’d change my doctor.
My opinion is that whether HCQ works or not, I want the choice to take it. I also want the choice not to be injected with unknown chemicals, produced by pharmaceutical companies I don’t trust and imposed by a government that should keep out of the way. Doctors advise, patients decide. Not some buffoon in government or the Civil Service. If I make a bad choice, that’s my problem not theirs.
Jic,
You really need to have a look at this vid. in relation to HCQ.
I’ts not being spread around because HCQ can be purchased in large quantities for next to nothing. Unlike £millions being made on a new drug……………

Re the interview of Piers Corbyn by Piers Morgan …
If you are confident that your opinion is correct and the opinion of someone whose opinion is contrary is false, you will allow that person to state his case and then pull it apart. To deny your opponent the opportunity to talk in what is supposed to be a factual debate shows a weakness in your position.
