Midweek Thread 13 January 2021

Free Speech feels under greater threat than ever before . Non ‘approved ‘ thinking or comments can get an entire website removed from easy access . Some think this site is a target for such treatment . It would be good to get ideas from users how the work of the Biased BBC website could continue should enemies of free speech succeed .

    BBC local news “A Lincolnshire care home where Covid swept through in November affecting all 28 residents and killing 18”
    The staff had been living on site in caravans.

    You have to have no blame culture
    but it seems to me they’d not done the additional measure of compartmentalising the home
    … That should have contained any outbreak to one wing and their own care team
    =========

    next
    Shameful item where only white men were featured.

    …. It was with donors at the Covid blood plasma donation clinic.

      Stew, or had they had extra residents put in that particular home at the request of or by the super-spreader a.k.a. the Anychess?

    The BBC broadcast the speech by the Helga in charge of the ReichEU says that although the supply of vaccine to the EU is going to be disrupted they will be getting more in March – including the American Moderns vaccine . Yet I understand that the USA is applying the USA first model and keeping all Moderns vaccines ‘at home ‘….
    The bbc didn’t put up their chief EU puppet (Adler ) to talk about this – I don’t think she could ever say a negative thing about thev`ReichEU – but she is – of course – of German heritage ….

    This TV media obsession with ethnicity bears all the hallmarks of the totalitarian state and it’s predilection for brainwashing. So, for all the hubris and self- congratulatory messaging from the great and the good all over NW Europe merely obscures the reality of them wanting to destroy any semblance of a discrete indigenous character relating to that area. UK TV news/drama/advertising/education may be at Pravda levels but it is merely the tip of a particularly nasty iceberg.

      No – I’ve been hoping to hear and hope he is recovering as well as possible but I’ve seen a few people after covid and it is a long slow haul – which frightens me .

        Fed, it sure can be if it gives you the equivalent of ME otherwise known as ‘Long Covid’. I would be very interested to know if my permanent, usually unproductive (a.k.a. dry) cough, is the result of Covid five years ago.

    My answephone picked up some character wanting me to have a free health monitoring device. All I have to pay for is the monitoring service.

    I did first think it was the next stage of ‘virus’ (people) control, but a bit of research suggests its a scam to get bank account details.

    (The government already has the means to access all of our bank account details and near total location monitoring of the muppets carrying a tracking device in their hands – they even pay for it, [cackling tin men split their sides laughing]).

    Sorry if it’s been done but Jesus, can’t they ever let up?

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55680315

    Not sure if this is the case, but perhaps if this “gentleman” offered good quality products to Britain he wouldn’t need to export – or is it to a “special” religious section of the EUSSR population that needs delivery so quick?

      This is one of their favourite tactics these days:
      ‘The BBC has contacted the government for comment.’
      Absolutely no point to put that unless you have the reply to go with it.
      Implies someone in authority is demanding an explanation from someone who has done wrong – giving the story some false credibility.
      Drip drip drip. The BBC play the long game. Anything more blatant can get them in trouble.

    One short walk around Super U our local French supermarket, would show you the fact that the French do not buy British Meat. The suppliers to the butchers in said supermarket, have their photos and addresses on the wall behind the counter, all local. It’s not long since, that farmers had a disagreement over the prices they were being paid. Their solution, block entrances to supermarkets with piles of manure, when I say piles I mean piles. Supermarkets had to shift it with diggers and bulldozers. Guess what, they paid up.

    The feature on the main BBC internet page with the heading ”
    Will vaccine give us old backs back” Using E Moji, the
    BBC shows us what it considers the demographics of
    the UK to be .Or what its perverted obsession with diversity
    wants it to be . Using what it calls “positive discrimination.”

    Antifa at Capitol claim were made on Jan 7th in this video
    specifically detailing John Sullivan’s actions

    Yet police didn’t charge him until a week later
    Video was compiled by Millie Weaver
    I think she herself was at the actual Trump event up the road.

    ^Please leave this window open .
    Layers on to stay warm, windows open to keep everyone Covid-19 safe,”
    4dNq2BX4-20210115-092919.jpg[/url][/img]
    After 10 months Arriva bus company finally decides having the windows open might be a good idea.
    They were still all closed on this near empy double docker bus running the Scarborough to Middlesbrough route.
    They are unheated buses and the North Yorkshire moors is rather cold
    Maybe just have one fixed permanently open at the back,
    where the chavs are hard wired to sit, because they think its gangster or something.

      The advice to keep windows open seems odd to me. Presumably we want any COVID in vapour in the air to float it’s little way down to the floor so we can’t breathe it in – but surely open windows will create lots of turbulence to spread it around ?.
      I have to admit I sit at the back like the hardest lad in school. But only because the other seats have so little legroom, I have to sit with my knees well apart to fit. For some reason, I’m the last person anyone else sits next to :-).

    Parler is still down
    The libmob argument has always been
    “Twitter is not a utility, it is a private comapny , so it can CHOOSE who it serves. If conservatives want a platform they can build their own
    So conservatives did that, or the French ones did , they built Parler
    ..except when at the same time as Twitter hit conservatives, Parler was also taken down !.

    AOC “this is not an exaggeration at all, many members of Congress nearly died”
    … FFS yes it is !< talk about double speak

    You had armed guards all over the place, the protesters were unarmed.

    “The mixed race officers, facing the violence of white supremacist Trump supporters” (nope generally they are not racist)

    “white supremacists *ordered* by Donald Trump to attack the Capitol”
    …. totally false

    FFS this is the most embellished distortion of reality one can imagine
    Sargon reckons it’s planned brainwashing.

      After reading all of these reports about Trump inciting an armed insurrection and attempted coup, I have to say I’m extremely confused about the lack of shooting which went on.
      It stinks to high heaven. It’s blatant lies. And the media are going along with it because they are Lefties too.
      We are witnessing the rise of the modern day Nazis.

        I am sure that more than 70 million voters in the US are of the same opinion . If it is true that there was voting fraud, there are many more of that number ?
        The truth will out.

        Quite right : it doesn’t matter that he DOES look like Lewis in some pictures. The colour of their skin is not important.
        What IS important is what a low-life, lying piece of sh1t with absolutely no morale compass whatsoever he is.
        BLM activists in a nutshell.
        Lewis on the other hand is just a rich-boy, virtue-signalling racist hypocrite who can both drive a car and ride a bandwagon.
