    I usually avoid the tiresome Q and A session when Boris stumbles out with the Chuckle Brothers like the plague…pun intended… They’re awful. There’s the usual tiresome questions by the usual tiresome journalists. It’s gone on for months. We could all write their scripts for them. It’s both boring and irritating!

    However, I can’t wait for the next one…

    That big mouthed bint, Beth, her with the huge mouth and bright red lipstick (like a human letterbox) is surely in for one almighty comeuppance. This ghastly creature is rude, opinionated and sneering. She’s a deeply unpleasant bully.

    So, next time she asks the PM the predictable snotty question, he can come back with a ferocious (verbal) right hook.

    They’ve already removed surly Burley from the air-waves to save her from further humiliation. Perhaps we can get shot of rancid Rigby as well.

    Oh, if only…

      Yes Boris could come back with a brilliant retort but we know he won’t. He will roll over and let them beat him into submission – like always!

      Puppy petition

      Once again the BBC reveal how they have lost touch with the people of this country.
      I note that Beth Boyd started the petition and the BBC are coming under heavy fire for their proposal to put on a show promoting a puppy selling business

    I mentioned this earlier about a commentary last night where it was more social preaching than a footy commentary – I put it down to the climate of fear within the BBC as grown up white experienced footy commentators are replaced by coloured token kidults ….
    Rainbow laces – a minutes silence / clapping for someone / thing – kneeling down – then a drinks break …..

    … a bit of preaching to inferior listeners and the crowd – a couple of pennies worth from some coloured underachiever pundit and then a bit of VAR ……
    It was my last contact with the BBC … but that is going too – talk sport is the same by the way …..

    Please note – The Welsh Assembly is out of touch with most of the people of Wales.

    There will be a reckoning at the next assembly elections if Snakeford has not banned them. He is fast turning into a great dictator.

    “Ok, the whole VoD thing has really played well with the core. What else can we use Dawn to push?”

    ***

    Have you ever fallen out with someone or ended a relationship because of their political beliefs?

    Have you ever fallen out with family because of it?

    Dawn French has revealed how she once DUMPED a boyfriend after finding out he was a Tory!

    Should political beliefs matter in relationships? What’s the best reason you’ve come up with for ending a relationship?

    The BBC has found more footy racism – this time it’s some French team against Jonnie Turk where a fourth official allegedly used a ‘racial ‘ term against someone and the Jonnie Turk team walked off the pitch …. millwall supporters will get the blame – of course ….
    But at least a bbc favourite – Man U – are being given a footy lesson by some kraut team – no mention of rainbow laces of taxpayers kiddie feeding because of inadequate parenting …

    Millwall fans clap players holding anti racism banner instead of taking the knee .

    Usual BBC puff piece including this line

    Players, officials and staff at Premier League and EFL games have been taking a knee pre-match since football restarted in June in order to show their support for the Black Lives Matter movement for racial equality.

    Good old BBC . BLM movement for racial equality !!!!!!!!

    Not defunding the police, ending capitalism, rioting, looting etc , it’s just a movement for racial equality !! Ok then BBC ????

    “Live animal exports to be banned in England and Wales”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-55167473
    Where have the Lefty animal rights and RSPCA people been until now?
    This will bring down the price of Welsh Lamb. It is much sought of in Europe, as is our fish .
    The government should tool up now and build up our fishing fleet.
    We will then get ‘British cod’ caught off our fishing grounds and sold locally instead of being brought in from the EU.

        Another thing , perhaps our farmers can start growing crops again instead of collecting grants from the EU.
        Nigel Farage should have been taken on as an adviser on the EU matters. The point is are the Tory mandarins serious about getting us out of the EU prison.
        I am pretty sure that The Reform Party are watching and waiting ………..

    Cambridge Uni Free Speech rules
    the Times reports that the culture of honour was impeding free speech. That the if people were treating a speaker as honourable
    that implies they support him
    So afraid of the mob they might not invite him in the first place, the ex beeboid Roger Mosey was involved in writing the rule that fellows should be “respectful” of others opinion.
    However this has the same problem.
    So an amendment saying fellows must have “tolerance” for other’ opinions , is likely to go ahead.

    The Times had an article about one of the main anti-deportation groups being a Marxist cult

    FFS they even use the Alinsky MO in their name
    “Movement for Justice By Any Means Necessary”
    yet the stars back them

    A celebrity-backed campaign to halt deportations of criminals to Jamaica has been seized on by a revolutionary group denounced by a former member as “cultish”.
    run by veteran campaigners from the Revolutionary Internationalist League (RIL), the British section of an organisation called the International Trotskyist Committee for the Political Regeneration of the Fourth International.

    While photographs of its protests highlight young black members,
    the key leaders are *two white Marxists*, Tony Gard, 79, and Karen Doyle, 46.
    Mr Gard has been involved in far-left politics since at least 1965 when he was elected a member of the national committee of the Young Socialists, a communist group

    The Times readers stick the boot in.
    https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/marxists-hijack-campaign-against-deportation-of-foreign-criminals-zdkcslkhw

    There’s an editorial as well, saying it’s wrong to equate with Windrush
    & explaining the same group hijacked Grenfell stuff as well.

      At the bottom the Times adds
      Facebook deleted hard left accounts and then put them back

      the accounts of more than 40 Socialist Workers Party organisers and 15 event pages were deleted in error.
      .. targeted by algorithms that remove hate speech from the platform.
      Facebook said: “It is never our intention to silence the voices of one particular community. These accounts and pages were removed in error and have been restored.”

      Yet FB almost always refuse to put back the accounts from righties excised in a similar manner.

    The left are depressing. But the plan so far has been successful. So we can expect more of the same next year. A brief Christmas respite before more of the same spiced with an Agenda that will make us all poor for life. Except those in Public jobs doing ‘business’.
    Collectivisation of the planet based on terms only the BBC recognise as ‘being believable.

    Interesting Video from Dr Vernon Coleman sums it up for me. The left think its all over. Globalism = Socialism = equality.
