    Lefties hoisted by their own petard again
    \\ A London Cycling Campaign employee is suspended over ‘racist’ Tweets following spat with drivers //
    .. story broken by TalkRadio’s Christo

    Basically in 2019 he sent a series of 4 tweets speculating that black guys in Mercedes who cut him up are gangsters
    and in his final tweet said I’m not racist cos in other areas the same cars seem to be driven by white drug gangsters.

    Now later he in role as an advisor about Low Traffic Neighbourhoods
    so the anti-campaigners have got him suspended.
    who also point out that 85% of London Cycling activists are white
    The cycling group then react by blocking anyone that dares to raise that issue.

    There is little free discussion except on Twitter, cos Facebook rules ban it , and the Telegraph article doesn’t allow free comment either.

    The BLM camera guy John Sullivan doing incitement at the capitol and carrying a knife
    .. was quite rightly charged by police

    Oz-ABC used his footage and his voice to imply it was all right-wingers
    .. US court documents show that even after the police charged him the Oz-ABC paid him $2,400
    ..and BBC/ITV have they paid him ?

    As a software engineer, watching the latest videos from the Perseverance landing on Mars gave me goosebumps. What a fantastic achievement.
    But I couldn’t help noticing how the videos of the NASA team reminded me of those the MSM show us of the Middle Eastern immigrants in the boats.
    All the longer-range group shots show mostly men. All the close-ups pick out the women.

    The hard left for claiming to stand for equality and diversity
    .. but actually they use that as a shield to push their POLITICAL agendas and money making schemes.
    Like Critical Race Theory Training

    Calvin Robinson featured on BBC’s The Big Questions to discuss race and racism in the UK.
    Following his appearance on the show, The Race Trust twitter account tweeted: “Calvin Robisnon does it not shame you that most people see you as a house n***o?”

    “These people on the hard left say they are campaigning for equality and diversity, but the moment someone expresses a different thought or opinion, they’re like, no not that kind of equality, no not that kind of diversity,”

      I saw that too. I have no financial sector experience but this does seem to be rather the opposite of what has been relentlessly predicted by Remainers since the pre referendum days of Project Fear. In fact have any of the predictions of Project Fear , or more widely of Remainerdom as a whole, yet come to pass? I suppose the stock answer to that question by those oh so clever Remainers will be ah but you need to wait another year, five years , ten years before the true cost of Brexit become apparent . They conveniently forget that they predicted financial Armageddon the day after the referendum if we voted to leave. That was four and a half years ago!

    The BBC is a post modern progressive ideology (post 1930 era). Its better that we understand the thinking behind the BBC. The disease of progressive post modernism has finally made it big time as a ‘global reset’. What it means in practice – that there can never be any debate on what is news, as its all subjective ’opinion’. They have ‘mass indoctrination’ – and you don’t have the power (or money) to change it. Everything is absolute and everything else is false in reality. There is NO reality any more in the BBC mindset (a given by the corporation), we are asked to believe they are the high Church.. and we can be converted.

    This is outlined clearly by Gad Saad (New book on societal parasites) in conversation with Jordan Petersen (January 18th 2021).

    Never underestimate your enemy within the BBC who are happy to enable modern day ’parasites ‘ of the world view academia airtime. That has taken hold of humanity as (‘Wokism’ is just a tiny part of that new unfolding ‘progressive’ ideology). To say that the BBC is ‘dangerous’ is an clearly an under statement. Very worrying as the world (UN) (CO2) (DAVOS) (GATES) (SOROS) is being shaped to this new false paradigm as world ‘truth’ dies. They will destroy us all eventually, including themselves. Worth watching the BBC’s reach into University is limitless. Its a disease of the mind and its gained traction. The ‘Global reset’ only works at a media level. It has no practical value and is not based on reality.

      Sopel is going Conspiracy theory there.

      – The description Ted Cruz wrote in the tweet
      “what happened with Texas’ power grid failure”
      is an accurate description of the video clip.

      .. And a minute into it, the radio station changes the strapline to read “Ted Cruz on Texas Winter Storms”

      Sopel is suggesting that rather than just clip a 3 min section from a 20 minute interview
      and leave the screen alone, Cruz has gone in and re-edited the footage to put in a false strapline.
      ….. ffff ing barking mad idea.

      The replies under Sopel’s tweet including from Zurcher are all bubbleworld “OrangeManBad” type tweets
      so although I could put them right.. I’d be wasting my time.

    Permit me a few small ‘Cathy Newman moments’, good people.

    The BBC are going big on ‘Vaccine Inequality’ today and that the Government is really wicked because Cabinet Ministers are not personally donning the gloves and facemasks and aprons while collecting together the vaccines, hypodermics, swabs and trays and going out to force a Covid jab into someone, in order to ensure that ‘poor people’ are innocculated against Covid.

    The BBC’s scientific sage for all this pro-Lefty claptrap is a Dr Mike Tildesely. (Hope I have spelled that name correctly.) Like the stupid ‘Covid affects BAMEs more than white people’ study from June last year, Dr Tildesely has opened his mouth and put his foot firmly in it on this issue. He says that take up of Covid vaccination is much less in poorer areas, in inner city areas and among ethnic minorities. In contrast, affluent majority white areas have a much higher take up of the Covid vaccines. He claims that this ‘vaccine inequality’ “puts us all at risk.” Note that statement carefully.

    The Cathy Newman (famous interviewer of a well-known Dr Peterson) moments herewith:
    1. “So what you are saying is that the Covid vaccines don’t work.”
    2. “So what you are saying is the Conservative Government is being racist.”, and,
    3. “So what you are saying is that you are being a Lefty and racist and a ‘race baiter’.

    I foolishly thought I would check the ten o’clock news headlines. Seems I caught the last five minutes of a BBC documentary about the blitz. I caught it just at the ‘summing up’ bit at the end where they were going through what had become of those featured in the program.
    I smiled to myself and wondered when the inevitable would happen .. I was not disappointed. Sure enough, at the point where the music became particularly rousing and patriotic sounding ..there was the black person and his family. I wonder if one in six ( or however many there were featured in the program) of those in the blitz really were black … we all know the answer !!!!

    IS THE BBC OVER STAFFED? The BBC at last count had over 21,000 acting journalists to cover the world news 24/7. This makes it the largest news gathering organisation in the country, – out stripping per head the entire news channels of all the UK printed broadsheets including all regional news and includes both The Daily Mirror and The Guardian combined. But out of all the UK newspapers only ONE stands out for the BBC…

    This same newspaper has the consistently the lowest print sales in the country. This is the only UK newspaper that is stuffed routinely full of BBC recruitment Ads. This is the only newspaper that cannot pay its staff proper wages and financially unprofitable. This is the same newspaper that the only hope of survival is a that of working at the BBC.…!

    In return the BBC does not pay The Guardian (itself) anything at all* for stealing headlines, features and Staff journalistic on a routine basis. The works collective of 21,000 BBC journalists can now enjoy a high standard of pay for doing less than anyone else, anywhere on the planet.

    This is how it works at the BBC. It could never work anywhere else. THEY could not work anywhere else. And yet we let it happen as they have a ‘CHARTER’ to do it and print their own money (called a TV license).

    *Facebook and Google do not employ 21,000 journalists and do not pay for news either!
    It begs the question what do these 21,000 BBC journalists do all day?

    And the answer is that. ‘That is why they read The Guardian’.

    IMHO, only Al Beeb and its staff buys the Guardian.
    Any readers or posters on here buy it ? Because no one I know buys it.

      Nope – and I get a strange urge to laugh out loud each time they beg me for money after I read any of their one-sided diatribes against someone with different political opinions.
