Whilst plod was busily arresting TR for nothing apart from trying to kill him again – the londonistan murder count has hit 4 stabbing murders and a shooting murder last night . 2 serious stabbings in lammy land – tottenham
Suspect descriptions are sparce – which is MSM code for non white …
The fatal explosion in stratfordistan is … indeterminate….
Maybe the latest lockdown with control the feral / third worlders but i doubt it …
Radio 4’s continuity announcer has moved on from describing The Hotel as ‘deliciously unsettling’ to ‘deliciously spine-chilling’. Personally I don’t understand why it was made.
Feedback continues to not give unsolicited feedback from listeners but instead has Jon Sopel telling us that he is impartial and that Biden is boring but vote for him anyway as sure as hell he won’t be held to account. A couple of captive Asians come pretty close to saying they don’t want to be called Asians and do say that they don’t listen to the BBC’s divisive Asian Network.
BBC Four tries to kill of interest in Scand-noir by putting on four hours on Saturday. Less is more BBC.
Not the BBC’s idea presumably, but why does DNA cast the 74 year-old Charlotte Rampling as a rude French police officer. She should have been able to draw her police pension 17 years earlier and her state pension 12 years earlier. Hardly Laure of Spiral! In The Bridge Henrick puts a prisoner in the back of his car – how does Saga cope with her two-door Porsche?
And finally, ITV serves up more Black people in half-an-hour than I see in a year. Didn’t the Advertising Standards Authority once use the slogan ‘legal, decent and honest’? Surely it can’t be legal to employ all these actors on the basis of race and it is hardly honest to portray the UK as 98% black?

Courageous of you to be watching it . The only thing i ‘took’ was ‘from our own snowflake correspondent’ –
Many of whom sound like friends of the producer for all the explanation they provide ….
Even the soccer ball isnt worth it …..
Attenborough: The excesses of capitalism must be ‘curbed’
Sir David Attenborough tells ‘What Planet Are We On’ podcast presenter Liz Bonnin that the excesses of capitalism have to be “curbed” to help the natural world “flourish again”.
The renowned broadcaster says “greed does not actually lead to joy” and Western countries must learn to live with “a little less” if they are to become sustainable.
As a regular gambler i i looked at a certain ireland based bookie and saw the President Trump ‘ specials’ -which are affected by wokism with regard to Mr Trump .
It includes a bet that mo farah will be deported … but says nothing about Sopel , BS , Bryant or the rest of the BBC army of beauties …
Anyone else noticed that the bBC and joined at the hips MSN, are reporting on US people buying guns/rifles, in case the election goes the way the beeb doesn’t want it to
ajs, I’m no fan of Trump but I hope he doesn’t just get re-elected but he wins with a landslide. Some of the Democrats (ironic in view of the Party name) probably will not accept it even then but at least the President will be able to justify a crackdown on any rioting and looting in the aftermath of the Election.
In 2016, that came immediately after the election and in the following weekend (Election day was a Thursday that year) and it is difficult for a new President to take action in the Transition Period. In reality, it was Barak Obama who should have cracked down on the rioters but …..
The worst possible outcome, in my view, will be a narrow win by either Candidate or a Biden victory.
Peter Hitchens’s jut recommended this article
saying “The full term of Covid catching to death is 4 weeks
So when we locked down on March 23rd and peak death came on April 8th and started declining, it is NOT possible that decline was DUE to lockdown (it was already built into the system)”
One of the most gripping and challenging articles on the crisis Fraser Nelson asks: Was the NHS overrun by Covid during lockdown? https://t.co/WEIFuMG6sC via @spectator
In prep for the US election ive been rewatching The West Wing . Ok its liberal and pre woke … but …. spoilere alert … series 2 of 7 covers a president who has MS but didnt declare it during his election campaign ….
Funny how i thought of Biden ..,
The other thing about The West Wing is how smug it is ….
Fed, where are you watching it ? Unless I buy the box set I cant find it on Sky Demand. Have tried through All4 but its not registering via Sky. Thanks.
Bris – smug answer alert …I got the box set in a charidee shop ..or £5….. I saw that c4 is running it but I don’t ‘do’ C4 anymore …
Elsewhere,,,it seems like I am becoming ‘a stranded expat ‘ – I must be coming into the ‘victim’ category which BBC News loves so much … the plight of staying on the coast where the sun shines from 0745 to 1830…. oh the suffering ….
It was good quality TV, even down to the replica WH. The characterisation seemed pretty good to me (one of the strengths of the cop shows, HSBs and H:LotSs and the original CSI) all very believable.
To have a President who so clearly loves his country with a passion must be a dream. And so many Americans want to throw it away !!!!!!
The economy, the jobs, the record employment of blacks etc, work on North Korea, peace deals in middle East etc, absolutely not one iota of credit from the DISGRACEFUL MSM.
This guy deserves so much more respect. It’s truly disgusting how he has been hounded by the left these past 4 years.
Hoping and praying for 4 more years.
In my opinion, these patriots did nothing wrong. Instead, the FBI & Justice should be investigating the terrorists, anarchists, and agitators of ANTIFA, who run around burning down our Democrat run cities and hurting our people! https://t.co/of6Lna3HMU
Getting close to that time of year, so here is a little Poem that says so much to us all.
THE POPPY
I am not a badge of honour,
I am not a racist smear,
I am not a fashion statement,
To be worn but once a year
I am not glorification
Of conflict or of war.
I am not a paper ornament
A token, I am more.
I am a loving memory,
Of a father or a son,
A permanent reminder
Of each and every one.
I’m paper or enamel
I’m old or shining new,
I’m a way of saying thank you,
To every one of you.
I am a simple poppy
A Reminder to you all,
That courage faith and honour,
Will stand where heroes fall
Howling with outrage because they think some children are not getting enough food yet silence about the tens of thousands of little schoolgirls being raped, gangbanged, drugged, tortured and generally passed around for old men’s sexual gratification.
All we get is the odd handful of faces shown in a newspaper saying this or that ‘grooming gang’ charged with something or other but is only the tiniest fraction of the industrial scale of the sex crimes being carried out by these people.
You would think one or two out of the millions who are going potty about some teenager missing a meal because the parents are useless would notice these goings on.
Picking up on the blatant selectivity and hypocrisy concocted by the left, between NGOs, pol parties, charities and their media shills, I just got this from one of the outfits the bbc likes to use as representing the nation as much as they do not either, 38 BeeGees:
Jesse Norman under pressure in Hereford and South Herefordshire
Is he? No, because he voted against pubs being shovelled cash to give single mums their daily Stella whilst the brood is stuck in the childminding area with cones of chips.
Want to put pressure on your MP to support free school meals for hungry kinds? Order a poster for your window here
No. I want him to do the job he was elected to do, and not dance to the daft tunes of yuppie activists in nice flats in London.
And the money for idiot posters could go to those genuinely in need, and not the feral toe rags who only use eggs in the fridge to ‘trick’ all the OAP homes in the area as they dare not answer the door to entitled thugs who know they are immune from discipline.
And these odd handfuls of faces appear so briefly (and only in a few papers) before they disappear again and are never thereafter referred to. Somehow the news is being managed so that we never have to think about certain things. How and by whom and in whose interest is this being done?
Jut a thought if 300 people died in a day in March
they were mostly vulnerable
If 300 people die today perhaps the penetration is deeper, cos the most vulnerable have already gone.
BUT second thought maybe current infections are mopping up the vulnerable in areas that were missed last time
It would get to a point that all the vulnerable & weaklinks get used up. And you’d end up with a robust society.
The normal period for surviving pancreatic cancer is or was three months; it may be better now. A friend survived over a year a decade ago, enduring some surgery, chemo & radio-therapy on the way. Yet there is a guitarist from a south-east Essex punk band who had a tumour the size of a football removed by a surgeon brave enough to try to do it and Wilko Johnson is still alive to this day.
Someone else I know, quite elderly, is scheduled to have his bowel removed (cancer again) and there are all sorts of risks during and after surgery. HAIs probably being the worst and now, Covid-19/20 is an extra one.
The problem is that the media, the BBC are extremely guilty of this – yet again, promote the idea of ever longer life expectancy. But life is never certain. Nor is business life ever certain, and that includes farming. Anna Hill and colleagues, please take note.
Back to Covid-19/20. Listening to Mike Yeadon, reminds that it is possible the virus(es) have mutated to something much more mild. It could, of course, go the other way, too. However, it takes me back to the hard fact that the PM and our Government are hostage to the NHS and what the staff do.
Children in Need : Teachers resources corp have just sent me
“We’re once again Official Education Partner for BBC Children in Need 2020.”
..’here’s a whole bunch of resources to be used in the classroom for fundraising’
Hang on I am not sure I want BBC politics in school.
O/T Re Johnny Depp judgement, it’s making “Dan Wootton” trend
cos that TalkRadio presenter was being jointly sued co he wrote The Sun’s article
.. And what’s currently happening is Depp supporters are tweeting hate at him.
I’ve said this before, but I want to see and hear from those kids from 30 odd years ago when this financial bandwagon started, and see if all the millions given has helped them, because from what I can see the country isn’t awash with playground / disability equipment / play buses etc
I for one am sick to the back teeth of this Pandemic..
What makes matters worse is the constant negative coverage on the news outlets.It a complete balls ache having to lock down again but the awful depressing coverage brings you down even further.
New snap poll just released says 75% of people who were asked support what the Government are going with regards to the new lock down.
I no longer watch the BBC so have to put up with the just as awful SKY NEWS. The first 4 contributors to the 6am news bulletin were all anti Government so called experts and all said the lock down would not be supported by most in this country, its getting to the stage where your going to need Prozac just to watch the bloody news..!!! This constant politicization and mis- information of the Pandemic is doing more harm than good, and of course being driven by Labour and the left wing press and media.
Yet again the same old suspects are paraded on TV to voice there anti Government waffle, Andy Burnham and the alternative anti Government Sage group.
I believe the media are seriously mis-judging the public mood. Yes we are all pi–ed off and fed up and yes none of us want another lock down, but most realise its necessity and its reason.
After this is all over and the dust has settled some in the media should hang there heads in shame..There coverage has been a disgrace..!!!
Heartily agree Dafy. Just watched the cringeworthy interview between Mark Austin and John Redwood. If they had been in the same room, then I’m sure Austin would have beaten Redwood over the head with a stick, the aggressive questioning was definitely biased.
ALSO for one day of electioneering in the States, I see that half the Sky newsreaders have flown over there for a nice little jolly. Nice little mid-term holiday for a spot of Christmas shopping, on top of the fabulous salary .
Another reason to hope Trump to win. All the rich elites with money to burn are supporting Biden. It would be brilliant to see them lose their ‘nailed on’ bets along with humiliation for the likes of the Racing Post.
Trafalgar polls continue to indicate Trump will retain his electoral college lead, and a new poll from the Sunday Express which also used a similar methodology (asking participants not just who they themselves were voting for, but who their neighbours and significant others were voting for to remove the stigma and fear drilled into them by the endless attacks of the liberal media) suggested Trump is ahead in EVERY state he won last time AND ahead in Minnesota, Nevada and New Hampshire.
Please let these be true and the lamestream media once again be embarrassing themselves. I genuinely fear for the western world if Biden/Harris get in. As a reminder, Trafalgar were the only ones who got the election right last time and even got te exact electoral college score of 306, so there’s plenty of hope.
The BBC ‘coverage’ of the US election continues to be a criminally biased disgrace.
They treat Biden as if he were a serious candidate. He has dementia and is constantly making gaffes which the BBC ignores.
His ‘rallies’ are pathetic events that no-one attends. The enthusiasm is in the basement, where he spends most of his time.
Trump’s rallies are supercharged events with tens of thousands in attendance and usually an overflow of thousands more outside.
Trump has car rallies, boat rallies, motorbike rallies, with thousands of vehicles, sometimes miles long. Biden has zilch.
The contrast is huge, but you’d never know it from the BBC.
Nor would you know the huge, systematic suppression of pro-Trump or anti-Biden news and views by the media and social media. I spend some time on US conservative (NOT far-right) sites – YouTube, Fb, Twitter, and large numbers are complaining about being throttled, de-ranked, demonitized, shadow-banned, censored, shut-down, or hobbled in 1001 ways by Big Tech dirty tricks and clever algorithms.
Nor would you know about the huge ongoing Biden scandal, the riots in Philly, and now mobs of Antifa / BLM / Black Bloc thugs intimidating voters at polling station.
I could go on but you get the picture.
I’ve never been a believer in sinister global conspiracies, but I’m starting to wonder. This goes way beyond Trump Derangement Syndrome. Could a very wealthy totalitarian superpower be buying agents of influence in the West? Could Big Tech, with its unlimited information on key players, be blackmailing and intimidating them? Are certain billionaire Hungarian gentlemen buying influence and pulling strings?
Actually all those questions have already been answered: Yes, yes and yes.
British agents from GCHQ are working hard in the NSA’s Printing Department in Fort Meade, churning out printed voting forms supporting Biden. The BBC has tried to help but the reporter went to Fort Meade, Florida instead of Fort Mead, Maryland. BBC reporter is now thought to be lost somewhere near Fort Meade, South Dakota.
A good job they didn’t have computer models in 1941. Otherwise we would have had to Lockdown all the Spitfire factories and move to caves in Derbyshire. All because a computer built by Tommy Flowers and programmed by Alan Turing, shows a continuation of the increase of bombing from September 1939 to May 1941, shows that all the factories and houses in Britain will be destroyed by 1945. Boris Churchill will also fine you £1,000 if you don’t wear a Gas Mask.
Also, instead of selecting a hundred Sages of Doom, selected for their politics, but called experts by the BBC. The Churchill Government would appoint one scientist. The scientist would appoint assistants to do practical experiments. The Government would then publish a pamphlet full of results obtained by the scientific method. Then people would voluntarily follow the advice, but without any fines or threats of imprisonment. Because that would be seen as undemocratic, authoritarian and fascist.
But now we have got Boris Johnson turning Liberal Fascist on us all.
Ironically, the British government of that time spent a great deal of money, that might have otherwise gone on Spitfires, manufacturing and distributing millions of gas masks – yes, masks. Masks for babies, masks for pets… masks we were told were obligatory based on the projection that the Germans would surely drop poison gas. But I guess their issue did at least galvanise the population into the notion that there was indeed a war on. There’s a thought.
Richard
All true
Practical people now have very little place in Govt or public sector and I include universities
I don’t agree with Boris’s Lockdown approach but most people I know have sympathy for him – he is buggered no matter what he does and so he is still just following the rest of the world and his bag of Sage. If everyone else does it I can’t be accused of doing it wrong..except he will be ..
‘Four more years? Get 50/1 on Donald Trump to win the US Presidential Election 2020 with promo code EPUS2020.’
There’s a big picture of Donald and when you click on it you go to a William Hill site and they ask you to join. I didn’t see any more of the 50 to 1 offer.
Any others getting this on Facebook and how can it be true. It must be a con.
The PM has given a report to is commons – he sounds tired – defeated and really doesn’t want to be there …. pity the wrong PM is in place for current events ….
Fed.
It appears randomly.
I tried to click on the post but it kept going on to another page which didn’t mention the 50/1
If or when it appears again I’ll see if I can somehow get the address or some sort of picture of it.
If anyone else gets it maybe they could somehow get it on here for us to look at.
It’s obviously not a sensible or honest bet but it looks very real and will have some people thinking Trump may as well give in which may well be the intention of the post.
You have to feel a bit sorry for BoJo. He spends his whole life endeavouring to be PM, and he ends up with what? This Pyrrhic victory, this poisoned chalice, this Pandora’s Box, this… oh, enough classical references – this crock of shit.
I found the offer and have put £50 on it at 50/1 a Trump win . The bookie is based in Lagos and you can use a UK debit card as long as you send the PIN……
Story on top right: ‘PM expected to tell MPs there is no alternative to the 4 week England lockdown’
Story on top left “Live”: ‘PM says no alternative to England lockdown’
Proving nothing as to the necessity of the policy. However, showing Number 10 takes care to speak with the BBC so as to manage the reporting on this issue as a priority over making the proper announcements to the Commons. And secondly, the BBC is more than happy to act as the Tory Government his master’s voice – on lockdown at least. Which tends to suggest this is not a conservative policy – discuss…
The alternative is called the Great Barrington Declaration.
It is effectively being practised to a large degree in Sweden, with considerable success. Focused protection is its key, targeting resources at those most at risk, whether it is the elderly, vulnerable or those with other medical conditions. The rest of the population should get on with life, this way we build immunity in the population. We must learn to live with the virus not hide in fear of it. The new national lockdown will result in more lives lost than it hopes to save. Suicides are soaring. Businesses and jobs are being destroyed.
Treatments for coronavirus are getting better, results from practical experiments on patients identify two antiviral drugs and two anti-inflammatory drugs as very effective, as is the present Flue vaccine. We have more hospital capacity and survival rates are improving. Putting Covid into perspective. Around 1,600 people die every single day in the UK. In recent weeks, Covid has barely featured in the top ten causes of death. The average age of a coronavirus fatality is 82, that is older than average life expectancy. The reality is that Covid is only very dangerous for a tiny minority of people. Anyone catching Covid has more than a 99.5% chance of surviving it, most with no symptoms at all.
The Reform Party is the only political party that supports the Great Barrington Declaration.
As part of my plan to keep my enemies close, I regularly glance over the trio of usual suspects, The BBC, The Guardian and the Independent.
I have noticed that the two latter are ramping up the begging bowl pop-ups to a ridiculous degree. Almost everything you click on is preceded by a begging banner which has to be dismissed before you can read on.
I can only assume and heartily hope that this means their coffers are emptying fast, I hope one day we see the BBC forced to get their begging bowls out. Maybe then they will realise just how much they are reviled by the ordinary people in this land that they despise..
Plenty of opposition backbencher moaning that lock down has only been bought in because th south east is being affected. They don’t seem to grasp the population size of the SE of England which around 20 million .
Some Scots liberal -MP – for Shetland – moaned – his constituency has 33000 voters – some London boroughs have 300 000 ….. fair representation ?
Only got through the first 30 seconds before we are informed and educated by the all-knowing BBC that despite his fame at the time Sir Francis Drake was in fact a murdering, thieving, slaver, and a money grabbing greedy monster….. with the caveat that he was “A man of his time”
Funny, digg, I was taught at school – may have been Primary School(!) – that he was a privateer. The teacher may then have had to explain what a privateer was in the 16th century for some of the children in class. Once they knew, the kids in class were probably thinking ‘Cool!’.
Now, in the 21st century, the Secondary School teacher may not know and would have to have someone explain to them what it means as they think the term ‘privateer’ meant being a member of the Cabinet during Margaret Thatcher’s and John Major’s terms of office as Prime Minister.
Keep the money. Give up telly. Sell it. Or give it away on Freecycle. Watch box sets and films on DVD on your PC tower or laptop or tablet. You will probably find that you do not miss TV in the slightest.
Tonight, @TinaDaheley
is exploring the world of lockdown social media sensation, TikTok. In the latest @BBCPanorama
show, Tina will be hearing from young influencers and an ex-moderator, to investigate whether the platform is safe.
Nothing is 100% safe , our local BBC presenters promote the app
BBC News – TikTok failed to ban flagged ‘child predator’
(There’re some reasons why authorities don’t ban people
It makes it easy for them to monitor them
instead of losing them to a made up fake account.
It’s like taking away a paedos phone and expecting them to not get another)
There are two reasons why the lying pollsters and the lying media (that’s you beeb) have been trumpeting a huge Biden win.
The first is called ‘voter suppression’. If Trump supporters can be convinced their candidate doesn’t stand a chance, why queue in the cold and rain to cast their votes, which may well be mysteriously ‘disappeared’ anyway?
The second is even more sinister: if the public can be made to believe that Sleepy Joe is a dead cert with a huge lead, then if Trump wins on the day, the ground has been laid to delegitimise the win with the further lie that the vote was ‘stolen’.
This would be followed up with endless litigation, which the Dems have lawyered up for.
So Trump needs a decisive win in order to circumvent those strategies.
Soon it will all be over bar the shouting. And there may be plenty of shouting.
Jesus they are having a field day. First get in two political commentators who surprisingly think Biden has had a better campaign and is going to win – and agree….
Slagged off conservative MPs who they described as grizzled old timers followed by those that agree with them as new ‘young’
Now someone from the ‘fast show’ knocking Boris and pals as ‘middle aged men’who don’t understand technology..what a tw*t
I don’t know who she is but if she thinks a power point show is technology well that sums up her knowledge – she didnt once think that the reason they kept saying next slide is because they were not controlling it…
The Govt must defund the BBC – it isn’t even trying to hide its bias
The luvvie media appear to be salivating over the possibility of Bewildered Joe taking office and the seemingly inevitable take-over by his side-kick. I remember the Glasto-twonks whining about their sad lives and that people like me should die. Well, that went well didn’t it? One of the things you learn in life is to be careful what you wish for and not to make unnecessary enemies. But I suppose living in a country that regards it’s older people with sneering contempt and a national broadcaster that reinforces this prejudice, one shouldn’t be surprised. Having said that, the chances of anything happening about the BBC seem pretty remote. How you can have an eighty seat majority and still run scared of the media Taliban is certainly beyond me. But then I’m OLD and THICK aren’t I. Sickening.
It’s not just America that needs Trump to win. Hong Kong democracy protesters, non-conforming EU members that rely on the US to keep the EU in check, Israel and Jews in general, secularists and Christians, and basically everyone to the right of Marxism is desperate for his re-election. Not to mention the millions of neutralised Americans from communist regimes that know the direction the US – and thus the developed world as a whole – is headed if Manchurian Joe gets in and quickly replaced by Harris, who has flat-out stated her goal is extreme socialism and has even begged illegal citizens to vote for them.
The BBC et al think they’re immune if they pay lip service, but they don’t seem to realise they’ll be cast aside as soon as they’ve served their purpose. They are, after all, a potential threat themselves and capable of being subversive.
Yep, exactly. For all the rubbish about Trump being in Putin’s pocket – which is directly contradicted by his actions over the last four years – the BBC is deafeningly silent about Joe’s ties to China. Venezuela and other communist countries are also praying for a Biden win, which likely means their populations are behind Trump. And of course, while tarring Trump as racist and ignoring Biden’s own long history of racist comments, the BBC ignores his record levels of employment for black Americans and his support of anywhere between 20-33% – and that’s only the confirmed cases, so it’s probably a good few percentage points higher given how Trump supporters hide their views to liberal pollsters.
This is bigger than a political choice. This is an existential crossroads. I know there’s hyperbole around every election, but this time the choice is so stark that the concern is 100% justified.
If you have the excellent ‘Alexa ‘ device – try asking it who is going to win the US election …..
…..put it this way …. it give the odds for Biden winning … at 65%…
Which is a lot better odds for Trump than he was given in 2016, where pollsters had him with no more than 25% at any given time.
Let’s not forget that Huffpaint said on the day of the election itself that Clinton had over 98% likelihood.
Polls don’t vote, people do. And it’s quite clear from all the rallies and spontaneous support parties that far more people are behind Trump in the swing states than Biden, unless Biden’s supporters have learned to keep quiet and take Republicans off guard – which doesn’t seem likely, given the left’s pathological narcissism.
1. Opened my emails this evening, to be informed that I was due a repayment of £129.99 from BBC licensing. All I had to do was fill in a form, obviously a scam. The thing is, I thought could it be the BBC scamming to make up the shortfall of the licence leavers. Anyway having lived in France for 10 years there is no chance I would have a licence.
2. Having just seen the BBC ad for this years Black Children in Need, its another thing I won’t be putting my hand in my pocket for.
For days the BBC narrative has been ‘why is the government avoiding a lockdown?’.
Now we have one.
Within microseconds the BBC narrative is suddenly ‘what effect will it have on the economy’ followed by a queue of people with all sorts of complicated situations who might miss out as a result.
Isn’t the change amazing?
Not when you realise the BBC’s sole aim is to undermine the government, depress us, and so hope we vote the ‘correct’ way next time.
In case of a Trump win, thousands of US pollsters, analysts, researchers and assorted talking heads from corrupt ‘news’ outlets will be out of work and looking for jobs.
Perhaps the BBC could employ them?
Incompetent? biased? dishonest? leftist? woke?
Step right this way, sir or madam or preferably trans, we have just the job for you: lying to the British public at their expense. When can you start?
Unlikely, sadly. They should have lost their jobs in 2016 and are still pushing the same messages four years later, hoping their audience is both large and gullible enough to swallow it.
In the case of MSNBC, their audience has remained steady, largely because – despite being the liberal equivalent of what liberals assume Fox News is (i.e. unhinged, emotional rants) – they do at least have a few contributers that support Trump, plus they tend to limit their disdain of Trump and his supporters to just sneering as opposed to outright venom. CNN’s ratings are in the toilet and have been for years, and it’s not surprising given how unprofessional both their host and production values are, but what’s worse is their outright calls to violence against Trump and his voters on numerous occasions, as well as doxing them and villifying people such as the teenage Covington students who did nothing more than stand in a public space wearing a hat and smiling.
Incidentally, CNN’s Van Jones has a documentary series that’s being shown on Crime and Investigation called the Redemption Project. It’s actually really interesting and powerful, but as you’d expect from a liberal outlet it cant just let the stories speak for themselves – they have to shoehorn their agenda into it at any opportunity. One episode had a white policeman visiting the black gangster who shot him in the neck in cold blood and tried to shoot him in the head (luckily the gun’s safety had slipped back on), and despite the aggressor clearly being in the wrong, Jones asked the victim if he was guilty of ‘unconscious bias’ and accused the police of being racist. What’s worse, the cop agreed. It really spoiled what was otherwise a really nice episode, as both the cop and his wife – who originally wanted nothing to do with the meeting – forgave the assailant after seeing how much he’d turned his life around in prison. However, as is always the case, the left can’t help themselves when offered a chance to patronise and gaslight others.

Most viewers on Twitter appear to be FBPE account saying
“aren’t the BBC wonderful for showing u Liverpool and proving that the second closedown is needed”
The case rate graph above, embedded from James Melville, is a little hard to find. It’s on the daily gov.uk stats where the UK figures have a drop down menu giving regional data.
I’ve not drilled down it before but makes for interesting reading.
1. Several university cities had a rocketing of cases in early October. Compare Sheffield with Doncaster where the ramp up in the latter case is more gradual. Not rocket science is it?
2. Case rates in Liverpool are clearly down and in Manchester and Newcastle may have now peaked. Could the regional tier system have actually been working??
3. Yet overall rates are stubbornly high. Maybe this is a spread across many areas, each of which is not too high but rising inexorably. If there were a lot of these, then a short lockdown could be justified.
4. Even if we are near peak caseload we’re not necessarily at peak ITU bed occupancy and certainly not at peak death rate. A daily average of 400 can be expected in 2-3 weeks.
5. But statistics on flu (and pneumonia) deaths would be welcome and surely social distancing etc should have a favourable impact on these too.
Not sure sage have shown these numbers to Boris.
They leave me cautiously optimistic that we might be in a good enough place by Dec 2 to relax some rules, though it remains to be seen if Boris will have the bottle as the sage doomsayers will still have him by the short and curlies.
Guess what ?
Vienna police appealing for public who took video not to publish it on Twitter but send it to them – in order to cover it up – presumably – get it share it – the truth …
This could be a big test for the BBC – which I have viewed as anti Semitic as the Labour Party – how will it bury the killings as the standard ‘Norwegian one off ‘ as opposed to an organised team of terrorists targeting Jews and a synagogue ….
… maybe the truth will be different … or maybe not ….
People are making a bit deal of the Armenian President saying a couple of weeks ago
‘You have to keep an eye on Turkey otherwise they’ll be back in Vienna before you know it’
That’s stretching it but it could be a bust up between Vienna based Armenians and Azerbaijanis.
In active shooter situation police maybe don’t want witnesses to broadcast their own location etc.
30 min ago Police tweeted
“Still active: Stay at home! “
It’s kicking off in Vienna with another act of terrorism.
Now we don’t yet know what has happened and who are the perpetrators.
But just in case it is another Islamic Incident the BBC are taking out insurance by putting the story exactly next to a ‘Far Right’ story they have miraculously decided is a top priority.
So in other words the banning of a group I’ve never even heard of in a foreign country is regarded by the BBC as equal to a mass shooting by terrorists.
Sooner or later we probably really will have Far-Right militant groups. But why? Because the systematic censorship of moderate conservative views and discussions – say on islam and migration – will force the debate underground and push moderates into the arms of extremists.
Then the BBC will say: See? We told you about fascists under the bed.
As somebody once said: “If you don’t deal with reasonable people when you have the option, you’ll eventually be forced to deal with unreasonable people when you don’t.”

My thoughts on weekend listening/viewing the BBC:
Radio 4’s continuity announcer has moved on from describing The Hotel as ‘deliciously unsettling’ to ‘deliciously spine-chilling’. Personally I don’t understand why it was made.
Feedback continues to not give unsolicited feedback from listeners but instead has Jon Sopel telling us that he is impartial and that Biden is boring but vote for him anyway as sure as hell he won’t be held to account. A couple of captive Asians come pretty close to saying they don’t want to be called Asians and do say that they don’t listen to the BBC’s divisive Asian Network.
BBC Four tries to kill of interest in Scand-noir by putting on four hours on Saturday. Less is more BBC.
Not the BBC’s idea presumably, but why does DNA cast the 74 year-old Charlotte Rampling as a rude French police officer. She should have been able to draw her police pension 17 years earlier and her state pension 12 years earlier. Hardly Laure of Spiral! In The Bridge Henrick puts a prisoner in the back of his car – how does Saga cope with her two-door Porsche?
And finally, ITV serves up more Black people in half-an-hour than I see in a year. Didn’t the Advertising Standards Authority once use the slogan ‘legal, decent and honest’? Surely it can’t be legal to employ all these actors on the basis of race and it is hardly honest to portray the UK as 98% black?

Attenborough: The excesses of capitalism must be ‘curbed’
Sir David Attenborough tells ‘What Planet Are We On’ podcast presenter Liz Bonnin that the excesses of capitalism have to be “curbed” to help the natural world “flourish again”.
The renowned broadcaster says “greed does not actually lead to joy” and Western countries must learn to live with “a little less” if they are to become sustainable.
Let see what our Dave is worth then!

In 2016, that came immediately after the election and in the following weekend (Election day was a Thursday that year) and it is difficult for a new President to take action in the Transition Period. In reality, it was Barak Obama who should have cracked down on the rioters but …..
The worst possible outcome, in my view, will be a narrow win by either Candidate or a Biden victory.

Howling with outrage because they think some children are not getting enough food yet silence about the tens of thousands of little schoolgirls being raped, gangbanged, drugged, tortured and generally passed around for old men’s sexual gratification.
All we get is the odd handful of faces shown in a newspaper saying this or that ‘grooming gang’ charged with something or other but is only the tiniest fraction of the industrial scale of the sex crimes being carried out by these people.
You would think one or two out of the millions who are going potty about some teenager missing a meal because the parents are useless would notice these goings on.

Picking up on the blatant selectivity and hypocrisy concocted by the left, between NGOs, pol parties, charities and their media shills, I just got this from one of the outfits the bbc likes to use as representing the nation as much as they do not either, 38 BeeGees:
Jesse Norman under pressure in Hereford and South Herefordshire
Is he? No, because he voted against pubs being shovelled cash to give single mums their daily Stella whilst the brood is stuck in the childminding area with cones of chips.
Want to put pressure on your MP to support free school meals for hungry kinds? Order a poster for your window here
No. I want him to do the job he was elected to do, and not dance to the daft tunes of yuppie activists in nice flats in London.
And the money for idiot posters could go to those genuinely in need, and not the feral toe rags who only use eggs in the fridge to ‘trick’ all the OAP homes in the area as they dare not answer the door to entitled thugs who know they are immune from discipline.

Jut a thought if 300 people died in a day in March
they were mostly vulnerable
If 300 people die today perhaps the penetration is deeper, cos the most vulnerable have already gone.
BUT second thought maybe current infections are mopping up the vulnerable in areas that were missed last time
It would get to a point that all the vulnerable & weaklinks get used up. And you’d end up with a robust society.

The normal period for surviving pancreatic cancer is or was three months; it may be better now. A friend survived over a year a decade ago, enduring some surgery, chemo & radio-therapy on the way. Yet there is a guitarist from a south-east Essex punk band who had a tumour the size of a football removed by a surgeon brave enough to try to do it and Wilko Johnson is still alive to this day.
Someone else I know, quite elderly, is scheduled to have his bowel removed (cancer again) and there are all sorts of risks during and after surgery. HAIs probably being the worst and now, Covid-19/20 is an extra one.
The problem is that the media, the BBC are extremely guilty of this – yet again, promote the idea of ever longer life expectancy. But life is never certain. Nor is business life ever certain, and that includes farming. Anna Hill and colleagues, please take note.
Back to Covid-19/20. Listening to Mike Yeadon, reminds that it is possible the virus(es) have mutated to something much more mild. It could, of course, go the other way, too. However, it takes me back to the hard fact that the PM and our Government are hostage to the NHS and what the staff do.

I for one am sick to the back teeth of this Pandemic..
What makes matters worse is the constant negative coverage on the news outlets.It a complete balls ache having to lock down again but the awful depressing coverage brings you down even further.
New snap poll just released says 75% of people who were asked support what the Government are going with regards to the new lock down.
I no longer watch the BBC so have to put up with the just as awful SKY NEWS. The first 4 contributors to the 6am news bulletin were all anti Government so called experts and all said the lock down would not be supported by most in this country, its getting to the stage where your going to need Prozac just to watch the bloody news..!!! This constant politicization and mis- information of the Pandemic is doing more harm than good, and of course being driven by Labour and the left wing press and media.
Yet again the same old suspects are paraded on TV to voice there anti Government waffle, Andy Burnham and the alternative anti Government Sage group.
I believe the media are seriously mis-judging the public mood. Yes we are all pi–ed off and fed up and yes none of us want another lock down, but most realise its necessity and its reason.
After this is all over and the dust has settled some in the media should hang there heads in shame..There coverage has been a disgrace..!!!

Another reason to hope Trump to win. All the rich elites with money to burn are supporting Biden. It would be brilliant to see them lose their ‘nailed on’ bets along with humiliation for the likes of the Racing Post.
Trafalgar polls continue to indicate Trump will retain his electoral college lead, and a new poll from the Sunday Express which also used a similar methodology (asking participants not just who they themselves were voting for, but who their neighbours and significant others were voting for to remove the stigma and fear drilled into them by the endless attacks of the liberal media) suggested Trump is ahead in EVERY state he won last time AND ahead in Minnesota, Nevada and New Hampshire.
Please let these be true and the lamestream media once again be embarrassing themselves. I genuinely fear for the western world if Biden/Harris get in. As a reminder, Trafalgar were the only ones who got the election right last time and even got te exact electoral college score of 306, so there’s plenty of hope.

The BBC ‘coverage’ of the US election continues to be a criminally biased disgrace.
They treat Biden as if he were a serious candidate. He has dementia and is constantly making gaffes which the BBC ignores.
His ‘rallies’ are pathetic events that no-one attends. The enthusiasm is in the basement, where he spends most of his time.
Trump’s rallies are supercharged events with tens of thousands in attendance and usually an overflow of thousands more outside.
Trump has car rallies, boat rallies, motorbike rallies, with thousands of vehicles, sometimes miles long. Biden has zilch.
The contrast is huge, but you’d never know it from the BBC.
Nor would you know the huge, systematic suppression of pro-Trump or anti-Biden news and views by the media and social media. I spend some time on US conservative (NOT far-right) sites – YouTube, Fb, Twitter, and large numbers are complaining about being throttled, de-ranked, demonitized, shadow-banned, censored, shut-down, or hobbled in 1001 ways by Big Tech dirty tricks and clever algorithms.
Nor would you know about the huge ongoing Biden scandal, the riots in Philly, and now mobs of Antifa / BLM / Black Bloc thugs intimidating voters at polling station.
I could go on but you get the picture.
I’ve never been a believer in sinister global conspiracies, but I’m starting to wonder. This goes way beyond Trump Derangement Syndrome. Could a very wealthy totalitarian superpower be buying agents of influence in the West? Could Big Tech, with its unlimited information on key players, be blackmailing and intimidating them? Are certain billionaire Hungarian gentlemen buying influence and pulling strings?
Actually all those questions have already been answered: Yes, yes and yes.

A good job they didn’t have computer models in 1941. Otherwise we would have had to Lockdown all the Spitfire factories and move to caves in Derbyshire. All because a computer built by Tommy Flowers and programmed by Alan Turing, shows a continuation of the increase of bombing from September 1939 to May 1941, shows that all the factories and houses in Britain will be destroyed by 1945. Boris Churchill will also fine you £1,000 if you don’t wear a Gas Mask.
Also, instead of selecting a hundred Sages of Doom, selected for their politics, but called experts by the BBC. The Churchill Government would appoint one scientist. The scientist would appoint assistants to do practical experiments. The Government would then publish a pamphlet full of results obtained by the scientific method. Then people would voluntarily follow the advice, but without any fines or threats of imprisonment. Because that would be seen as undemocratic, authoritarian and fascist.
But now we have got Boris Johnson turning Liberal Fascist on us all.

Ironically, the British government of that time spent a great deal of money, that might have otherwise gone on Spitfires, manufacturing and distributing millions of gas masks – yes, masks. Masks for babies, masks for pets… masks we were told were obligatory based on the projection that the Germans would surely drop poison gas. But I guess their issue did at least galvanise the population into the notion that there was indeed a war on. There’s a thought.

The alternative is called the Great Barrington Declaration.
It is effectively being practised to a large degree in Sweden, with considerable success. Focused protection is its key, targeting resources at those most at risk, whether it is the elderly, vulnerable or those with other medical conditions. The rest of the population should get on with life, this way we build immunity in the population. We must learn to live with the virus not hide in fear of it. The new national lockdown will result in more lives lost than it hopes to save. Suicides are soaring. Businesses and jobs are being destroyed.
Treatments for coronavirus are getting better, results from practical experiments on patients identify two antiviral drugs and two anti-inflammatory drugs as very effective, as is the present Flue vaccine. We have more hospital capacity and survival rates are improving. Putting Covid into perspective. Around 1,600 people die every single day in the UK. In recent weeks, Covid has barely featured in the top ten causes of death. The average age of a coronavirus fatality is 82, that is older than average life expectancy. The reality is that Covid is only very dangerous for a tiny minority of people. Anyone catching Covid has more than a 99.5% chance of surviving it, most with no symptoms at all.
The Reform Party is the only political party that supports the Great Barrington Declaration.

Funny, digg, I was taught at school – may have been Primary School(!) – that he was a privateer. The teacher may then have had to explain what a privateer was in the 16th century for some of the children in class. Once they knew, the kids in class were probably thinking ‘Cool!’.
Now, in the 21st century, the Secondary School teacher may not know and would have to have someone explain to them what it means as they think the term ‘privateer’ meant being a member of the Cabinet during Margaret Thatcher’s and John Major’s terms of office as Prime Minister.

There are two reasons why the lying pollsters and the lying media (that’s you beeb) have been trumpeting a huge Biden win.
The first is called ‘voter suppression’. If Trump supporters can be convinced their candidate doesn’t stand a chance, why queue in the cold and rain to cast their votes, which may well be mysteriously ‘disappeared’ anyway?
The second is even more sinister: if the public can be made to believe that Sleepy Joe is a dead cert with a huge lead, then if Trump wins on the day, the ground has been laid to delegitimise the win with the further lie that the vote was ‘stolen’.
This would be followed up with endless litigation, which the Dems have lawyered up for.
So Trump needs a decisive win in order to circumvent those strategies.
Soon it will all be over bar the shouting. And there may be plenty of shouting.

I remember the Glasto-twonks whining about their sad lives and that people like me should die. Well, that went well didn’t it? One of the things you learn in life is to be careful what you wish for and not to make unnecessary enemies. But I suppose living in a country that regards it’s older people with sneering contempt and a national broadcaster that reinforces this prejudice, one shouldn’t be surprised. Having said that, the chances of anything happening about the BBC seem pretty remote. How you can have an eighty seat majority and still run scared of the media Taliban is certainly beyond me. But then I’m OLD and THICK aren’t I. Sickening.

It’s not just America that needs Trump to win. Hong Kong democracy protesters, non-conforming EU members that rely on the US to keep the EU in check, Israel and Jews in general, secularists and Christians, and basically everyone to the right of Marxism is desperate for his re-election. Not to mention the millions of neutralised Americans from communist regimes that know the direction the US – and thus the developed world as a whole – is headed if Manchurian Joe gets in and quickly replaced by Harris, who has flat-out stated her goal is extreme socialism and has even begged illegal citizens to vote for them.
The BBC et al think they’re immune if they pay lip service, but they don’t seem to realise they’ll be cast aside as soon as they’ve served their purpose. They are, after all, a potential threat themselves and capable of being subversive.

Don’t forget the populations of Vietnam, Taiwan, the Philippines, and many others who are extremely anxious about Chinese hegemony in the area.
Not for nothing have there been mass rallies such as Vietnamese for Trump, Filipinos for Trump, Asians for Trump, etc.
They know what’s a-comin’ with Biden / Kamala and they don’t like it one bit.

Yep, exactly. For all the rubbish about Trump being in Putin’s pocket – which is directly contradicted by his actions over the last four years – the BBC is deafeningly silent about Joe’s ties to China. Venezuela and other communist countries are also praying for a Biden win, which likely means their populations are behind Trump. And of course, while tarring Trump as racist and ignoring Biden’s own long history of racist comments, the BBC ignores his record levels of employment for black Americans and his support of anywhere between 20-33% – and that’s only the confirmed cases, so it’s probably a good few percentage points higher given how Trump supporters hide their views to liberal pollsters.
This is bigger than a political choice. This is an existential crossroads. I know there’s hyperbole around every election, but this time the choice is so stark that the concern is 100% justified.

If you have the excellent ‘Alexa ‘ device – try asking it who is going to win the US election …..
…..put it this way …. it give the odds for Biden winning … at 65%…

Which is a lot better odds for Trump than he was given in 2016, where pollsters had him with no more than 25% at any given time.
Let’s not forget that Huffpaint said on the day of the election itself that Clinton had over 98% likelihood.
Polls don’t vote, people do. And it’s quite clear from all the rallies and spontaneous support parties that far more people are behind Trump in the swing states than Biden, unless Biden’s supporters have learned to keep quiet and take Republicans off guard – which doesn’t seem likely, given the left’s pathological narcissism.

1. Opened my emails this evening, to be informed that I was due a repayment of £129.99 from BBC licensing. All I had to do was fill in a form, obviously a scam. The thing is, I thought could it be the BBC scamming to make up the shortfall of the licence leavers. Anyway having lived in France for 10 years there is no chance I would have a licence.
2. Having just seen the BBC ad for this years Black Children in Need, its another thing I won’t be putting my hand in my pocket for.

For days the BBC narrative has been ‘why is the government avoiding a lockdown?’.
Now we have one.
Within microseconds the BBC narrative is suddenly ‘what effect will it have on the economy’ followed by a queue of people with all sorts of complicated situations who might miss out as a result.
Isn’t the change amazing?
Not when you realise the BBC’s sole aim is to undermine the government, depress us, and so hope we vote the ‘correct’ way next time.

In case of a Trump win, thousands of US pollsters, analysts, researchers and assorted talking heads from corrupt ‘news’ outlets will be out of work and looking for jobs.
Perhaps the BBC could employ them?
Incompetent? biased? dishonest? leftist? woke?
Step right this way, sir or madam or preferably trans, we have just the job for you: lying to the British public at their expense. When can you start?

Unlikely, sadly. They should have lost their jobs in 2016 and are still pushing the same messages four years later, hoping their audience is both large and gullible enough to swallow it.
In the case of MSNBC, their audience has remained steady, largely because – despite being the liberal equivalent of what liberals assume Fox News is (i.e. unhinged, emotional rants) – they do at least have a few contributers that support Trump, plus they tend to limit their disdain of Trump and his supporters to just sneering as opposed to outright venom. CNN’s ratings are in the toilet and have been for years, and it’s not surprising given how unprofessional both their host and production values are, but what’s worse is their outright calls to violence against Trump and his voters on numerous occasions, as well as doxing them and villifying people such as the teenage Covington students who did nothing more than stand in a public space wearing a hat and smiling.
Incidentally, CNN’s Van Jones has a documentary series that’s being shown on Crime and Investigation called the Redemption Project. It’s actually really interesting and powerful, but as you’d expect from a liberal outlet it cant just let the stories speak for themselves – they have to shoehorn their agenda into it at any opportunity. One episode had a white policeman visiting the black gangster who shot him in the neck in cold blood and tried to shoot him in the head (luckily the gun’s safety had slipped back on), and despite the aggressor clearly being in the wrong, Jones asked the victim if he was guilty of ‘unconscious bias’ and accused the police of being racist. What’s worse, the cop agreed. It really spoiled what was otherwise a really nice episode, as both the cop and his wife – who originally wanted nothing to do with the meeting – forgave the assailant after seeing how much he’d turned his life around in prison. However, as is always the case, the left can’t help themselves when offered a chance to patronise and gaslight others.

The case rate graph above, embedded from James Melville, is a little hard to find. It’s on the daily gov.uk stats where the UK figures have a drop down menu giving regional data.
I’ve not drilled down it before but makes for interesting reading.
1. Several university cities had a rocketing of cases in early October. Compare Sheffield with Doncaster where the ramp up in the latter case is more gradual. Not rocket science is it?
2. Case rates in Liverpool are clearly down and in Manchester and Newcastle may have now peaked. Could the regional tier system have actually been working??
3. Yet overall rates are stubbornly high. Maybe this is a spread across many areas, each of which is not too high but rising inexorably. If there were a lot of these, then a short lockdown could be justified.
4. Even if we are near peak caseload we’re not necessarily at peak ITU bed occupancy and certainly not at peak death rate. A daily average of 400 can be expected in 2-3 weeks.
5. But statistics on flu (and pneumonia) deaths would be welcome and surely social distancing etc should have a favourable impact on these too.
Not sure sage have shown these numbers to Boris.
They leave me cautiously optimistic that we might be in a good enough place by Dec 2 to relax some rules, though it remains to be seen if Boris will have the bottle as the sage doomsayers will still have him by the short and curlies.

Vienna – multiple shootings near a synagogue – BBC put this in the ‘Europe ‘ section . Plod says ‘terrorist attack’ .
A ‘mostly peaceful terrorist attack ‘? At least it distracts from the shooting of a priest or the multiple killing in a church … or …or ..or…

This could be a big test for the BBC – which I have viewed as anti Semitic as the Labour Party – how will it bury the killings as the standard ‘Norwegian one off ‘ as opposed to an organised team of terrorists targeting Jews and a synagogue ….

But just in case it is another Islamic Incident the BBC are taking out insurance by putting the story exactly next to a ‘Far Right’ story they have miraculously decided is a top priority.

‘Grey wolves – Far Right group to be banned in France’
So in other words the banning of a group I’ve never even heard of in a foreign country is regarded by the BBC as equal to a mass shooting by terrorists.
Truly appalling standards.

Sooner or later we probably really will have Far-Right militant groups. But why? Because the systematic censorship of moderate conservative views and discussions – say on islam and migration – will force the debate underground and push moderates into the arms of extremists.
Then the BBC will say: See? We told you about fascists under the bed.
No BBC, you CREATED them.
