    Readers have varying views about covid lockdowns butbthis being a biased BBC site, I offer the following.

    Wales, having had a short circuit lockdown, now are to have a new full lockdown.

    This is first on the 6 pm news but the tone is very impartial. No implied criticism of the Labour welsh government.

    But quickly its over to the forthcoming westminster vote. Cue coverage of Starmer whipping up the discontent followed by Laura Doomsberg doing a rare shift with the usual pursed lips.

    You may or may not like the coverage, according to your disposition. But concerning the stark contrast in tone of the two stories, impartial it ain’t.

    Evolution of how the left depicted election fraud pre-2020:

    2005 – mail-in voter fraud is the biggest threat to election integrity (bipartisan report authored by former president Jimmy Carter)
    2006 – Lou Dobbs reports for CNN on Dominion and its origins in Venezuela, cites their history of issues
    2016 – BBC runs article on “how to spot a stolen election” on the same day as the US presidential election, which included – among other things – media misinformation, ballot-stuffing, pausing counting suddenly when behind only to take the lead when it resumes. After Trump won, the corporate media immediately claimed (with no evidence) that Russia had hacked the electronic voting machines. They also blamed Russia on Brexit for good measure, even though these were all paper ballots

    Evolution of how the left has depicted election fraud in 2020:

    Mid-year – no evidence that mail-in ballots increases risk of voter fraud
    Immediately post-election – no evidence of any voter fraud
    Mid-November – evidence of voter fraud indisputable: left claims no evidence of widespread voter fraud; no attempt to qualify their definition of ‘widespread in the context of a federal election
    Late November (current) – evidence of voter fraud in multiple states: left claims no evidence that the proven voter fraud is enough to affect the results

    Evolution of how the left will depict election fraud in the coming weeks:

    Early December – probable cause to believe fraud did in fact affect the result: left will claim no evidence that US sources knew about these operations, left will blame Iran and/or China
    Mid-December – US involvement proven; left will claim no evidence US intelligence services were involved
    Late December – alphabet agency involvement proven; left will claim no evidence high-level Democrats were involved
    Early January – DNC involvement proven; left will claim no Biden involvement
    Mid-January – Biden involvement proven; left will claim no Obama/Clinton involvement
    Late January – Obama/Clinton involvement proven; left will scream “orange man bad” and claim he has committed a coup

    The Guardian are going after Alastair Henderson, a board member of the EHRC Human Rights Commission for tweets he has liked which called for greater tolerance of views not aligned with BLM, Homophobic crackdowns and etc.

    It is clear to me that this is an obvious payback for the Commission criticising their dearly loved god-man Corbyn.

    https://www.theguardian.com/society/2020/nov/30/ehrc-board-member-under-scrutiny-over-social-media-use

    Reading the article, Mr Henderson comes across as a well-balanced being who’s only crime is to disagree with some of the more twisted political theology of the leftists and Marxists.

    It is pretty obvious that the back-room activists at the Guardian have spent many hours rooting through every social media account they can to dig up twisted dirt and throw dung at him, they are below despicable!

    I would come to the conclusion that Mr Henderson’s point of view is aligned with the overwhelming majority of normal sane and rational folk in the UK

    This is not journalism it’s petty, vicious activism!

    According to Rasmussen, nearly half of those polled (47%) now believe there was enough fraud to ensure Biden would win in the recent elections, including 75% of Republicans & 30% of Democrats.

        There can hardly be any story in the history of reporting that has been 100% true, particulary at the ‘just breaking stage’.

        Traditionally words such as ‘reports are coming in’, ‘reportedly’, ‘it is alleged’, ‘witnesses say’ have allowed newspapers and broadcasters to rush out ‘news’ with a degree of separation that preserved some credibility as new ‘facts’ emerge.

        Yet for this latest US Election we were being assured right from the start that there was no fraud, the BBC using words like ‘baseless’ across all of its news outlets. How can they have possibly have known that at that time?

        Then couple that with the action of Facebook in placing warnings on posts that raise any question over the election and it must be obvious to anyone of any political persuasion that the ‘story’ had been written before the event – the official ‘truth’ and no dissent is permitted.

        How do these ‘journalists’ sleep at night? If their conscience doesn’t trouble them then the thought that they might be the next up against the wall should.

            The MSM hate against Trump where did it come from ? ?
            It’s a full on playground bully gang circling the little ginger haired kid and spitting on him.
            ..Years ago they gently mocked Reagan
            .. then stepped up a level in mocking George Bush
            I though myself special cos as a reader of the Guardian I knew he was thick
            .. Now I doubt that, I’d fallen for their cartoon character portrayal of him. He probably was smart in a lot of ways.
            They had their love in within Obama
            .. who didn’t actually improve America much
            even after 8 years there was still the row about cops shooting blacks
            and blacks shooting cops .
            Then with Trump they liked him but got all territorial when they realised he was going to beat their girl and not play along with their holy religions like Shop-yourself-green increasing political correctness, open borders.

            Then look how they bent over backwards to defend Bill Clinton
            what he did to Monica Lewinsky was certainly #MeToo

            Yet what they do against Trump and for GreenDream religion is equivalent to hundreds of millions of pounds worth of full on POLITICAL campaigning
            They are the media Taliban.

    I’ve been watching part of the Arizona State Legislature’s election enquiry on RealClearPolitics this evening. A mathematical guy was giving his witness testimony. He had carried out an in-depth analysis of the 2020 Arizona voting and was detailing the statistical anomalies he’d found. In fact he’d also looked at the state’s voting pattern over the last twenty years, as I recall. In the last decade, while the population of Arizona has been increasing at a steady rate of 1% per year, the number of votes cast at its elections has also been rising, but at about 7% every year. In other words election fraud hasn’t just started this year.

    Towards the end he estimated that Trump had gained about 60% of the national vote and in reality won thirty-five states.

        Not seen the BLM riots either.

        And despite warnings from the scum media that Washington was boarded up on election day ready for the violence when Trump loses, there was not a jot of bother ……. and now, with 75 million pissed of Americans who fell cheated, still NO violence.

        For someone meant to have his finger on the pulse , he sure misses a awful lot.

    Morning. At a friends watching Breakfast. BBC at its best….a whole story on a woman who got HIV…a fawning link to welsh rugby capt who has HIV..a petition to have everyone tested for HIV whenever they have a blood test! ‘Regardles of gender, ethnicity etc’
    Went on for ages…lot of up bum smoke blowing…and how education is needed

    What we didn’t find out is 1. What her symptons were 2. How she might have got it and 3. How it is transmitted?

    So absolutely no useful information just a cry to waste more public money testing everyone for it
    BBC journalism at its best!

        They won’t be ready to vaccinate those 5 million until 2023
        How many vaccines will Boris deliver in the next month ?
        .. almost none
        by the end of January will it be a million ?

        Is anyone here willing to bet that most people will have been vaccinated by July 1st ?

          Stew,

          If we’re talking about a majority of the UK’s adult population who are willing to be vaccinated, then I’ll take that bet.

          I expect that it’ll be February before we start to see mass vaccinations delivered by the NHS. However, the NHS isn’t the only game in town, and I expect that many larger companies/organisations will try to institute their own vaccination programmes IF* they can get hold of sufficient quantities of vaccine**.

          * The NHS may assist them in this regard as it would take some of the pressure off them.

          **Probably the ‘Oxford’ vaccine, given that it need only be kept refrigerated.

              In theory the plan for mass vaccination is well prepared – surely ? The nhs has been talking about a 1919 flu outbreak fir years so the plan will be tested and good to go – right ?

              Actually I reckon Easter before they get going .

              Then they’ll be a massive recall as it turns out they bought a batch of vaccine from some dodgy Turk who has made a ‘contribution ‘ to the Tory party or is a ‘friend’ of Princess nut nut ….

    One interesting comment came from a US bod, who mentioned that President Trump may not even bother to go to the ‘ceremony’, when Joey is shown where to sit in January, and could even announce his wish to run in 2024! If not him, then it may be a son or daughter!

    Most of the popular press pack catch up with the pop singer Rita Ora, just turned 30, and her lockdown law busting birthday party this morning.

    ‘”Deeply sorry” Ora escapes fine after her party breaks Covid rules’ (Guardian)

    We learn from the frontpage of the trashy giveaway woke celeb-obsessed Metro (where she belongs) that her rule breaking celebrity guests included super model sisters Cara and Poppy Delevingne and Vas J Morgan – Cara is that one who’s all eyebrows and no tits, whilst our Vas J is famous for… well, I’m not entirely sure what (his TV credits are The Only Way Is Essex plus your favourite and mine – Celebs Go Dating) suffice to say he’s black and claims to have once been a victim of a homophobic attack. Think of him as the British answer to Jussie Smollett.

    Anyway, as the freebie Metro points out it’s: ‘One law for Ora’ and their front page splash exposes: ‘Baloney, Rita appears to be alone in birthday photo posted hours before party’

    How to descibe our Rita in her duplicitous birthday PR shot? The narrative would seem to be pretty girl all dressed up and ready to party but sadly with no beau and nowhere to go. I’m wandering into waters well outside of my comfort zone here but her outfit I can only descibed as metallic. There’s a definite whiff of dominatrix, but despite the carefully arranged – what I think in the tabloid trade is called side-boob – I’m assuming our Rita is what they call a gay icon. Her background decor is nouveau druglord.

    Ah, the popular culture. Culture, you say…? Sir Roger Scruton would tut-tut in his grave. Is it inspired by Weimar Germany or the last days of Rome?

    ‘Star fines herself £10,000, but only after her illegal 30th birthday bash is exposed. So why didn’t police act?’ – answers on a postcard.

    ‘Reprieved Jamaican charged with murder’ – the Telegraph tells the everyday story of a convicted criminal who beat deportation and went on to be charged with a murder – case pending.

    Whoever said society was fair? ‘Ethnic minorities to be given priority for rapid tests after lockdown’ (Telegraph)

    ‘No jab? You’re barred’ threatens the Daily Mail.

    In a similar vein, so to speak, William Sitwell in the Telegraph asks: ‘Eton is elitist. That’s the point. Don’t turn it into a woke joke’

    With a nod toward Cara Delevingne let’s go a little highbrow. Arcadia was the name of the Classical Greek concept of the garden of paradise, a poetic vision of pastoralism and harmony with nature. Anyway: ‘Arcadia collapse threatens jobs and pensions’ The augurs bode ill as the Telegraph practices divination (nine moons too late) and predicts a great retail empire will fall if we go to lockdown. ‘Arcadia collapse puts 13,000 jobs at risk’ (Guardian) – I think we can say those job prospects are like the Parthenon – in ruins. Shopworkers’ pension dreams destined for a museum.

    Let’s descend further downmarket and place our order for: ’10 pints of lager… and a Scotch egg please’ – today’s Sun headline ridicules the latest government lockdown rules.

    A glimmer of light emerges from the most unexpected of places. The Guardian headlines with: ‘Labour delivers blow to Johnson’s Covid plan as Tory rebels circle. Starmer’s plan to to abstain in crucial vote on tiers raises pressure on PM’ – let’s just see if this forensic genius has the balls in his brief as leader of the opposition to unlock us from this madness. Personally, I doubt it.

    The Times leads with: ‘Secret dossier on Covid damage’ and reckons there are 70 Tory rebels. The ‘i’ tops that figure and claims there’s 100. We’ll see.

    TOADY Watch #1 – we are saved! Hooray!!

    There was a positive lightness in the voice of Matt McGrath’s, BBC’s Environment Correspondent today that our world will not fry in 2100. Joe Biden is US President-elect so that will wipe 9/10ths of one degree (unscientific Matt doesn’t mention which temperature scale at all) off the predicted three degree disaster scenario (where have we heard similar disaster scenarios recently?) that the International Panel for Climate Change have decided on and spent the last handful of years telling us about.

    Are you sure Matt?

    Could it be only 0.89 of a degree of something?

    You never know, it might be 1.00009 of a degree of something?

    Or other.

    And if Joe Biden gets sick or, heaven forfend, dies and Kamala Harris assumes the Presidency, will the temperature forecast go up or down? Matt does not cover that possibility.

    How a normal, human being with a functioning brain could spout such rubbish, let alone believe it, is beyond me.

    I hope someone plays a tape of Matt’s broadcast this morning back to him today and at yearly intervals from now on. If he is not severely embarrassed by his words now, there’s a very good chance he will be on one of the anniversaries. “Did I really mean that?” “Well, the BBC expected me to say it.” Aah, the old Nuremberg Defence – they made me do it.

    Check mate, mate.

    UKs top statistician Spiegelhalter in last months Spectator show
    absolutely ridiculed government graphs used to justify lockdown #2
    the 4,000 deaths/day prediction etc.
    He made it clear they were PR not truth.

    However then went on to say ‘they didn’t need to do propaganda cos the real graphs showed Covid growing and therefore LOCKDOWN is needed.’

    No, I disagree, when graphs show Covid growing that is not necessarily a bad thing
    It is a good thing when more people get Covid … = more immunity.
    The thing that counts is shielding granny
    Now at first glance of the growing death graphs would seem to show a problem of more granny’s dying with Covid.
    but now that November stats are in only 8 more died than last year
    as deaths are booked as Covid this year , LESS deaths are booked as flu/pneumonia, heart disease etc.
    What was going to be the best outcome ?
    You can’t make an infirm 90 year old live another 30 years
    They maybe had a 150K younger people in hospital
    and it would have been best not to have given them Covid in the first place.. AFAIK the biggest source is the NHS itself.

      Incredible the libmob school bully gang continually pick on little man Goddard.
      Then when he shouts one sentence to her across a court corridor she is able to prosecute him and get a life time restraining order.

      That doesn’t seem proportionate to me.
      It’s lawfare.
      Dearden tweets “There was no CCTV and court staff refused to give statement. ”
      So it was her and her assistants word against Goddard’s.

      Any other kinds of abuse and threats from nutters is a separate thing. Goddard should not be punished for that.

      When self-styled “yellow-vest” activist Goddard (pictured) spotted Dearden outside the courtroom
      he shouted “that’s Lizzie Dearden from The Independent”, calling her “vile” and “scum of the earth”, according to the title’s report.

      Dearden, who said she tried to get away from Goddard into the courtroom but was told by staff it was full, told Wimbledon Magistrates’ Court on Thursday: “I was frightened when he came towards me, he is *quite a big guy* and he looked extremely angry.”
