A neat summary of the current situation between the establishment (Westminster, Legal and Media) and this planet.
Hope that is not a wood burner in that alcove.
Jeremy Vine had the ‘hots’ for them when they first came to the UK.
Naga Munchetty is untouchable at the BBC because all
she is doing is following the doctrines of the default
position of the BRITISH broadcasting corporation which
is the perfect meaning of what an oxymoron is.
For 90% of the editors, sub editors, presenters, reporters,
researchers the sight of an Union Jack and a
photograph of the Queen in a government ministers office
or home is an anathema for them. And
something to be mocked.
Thought crime! Cancel her! No platform!
So this is why the bbc need more staff in Oz?
To write meaningless headlines.
The issue is that are different behaviours for different settings.
Sniggering at some someone’s flag is playground stuff
not suitable for when you are serving the public on an impartial broadcaster, where the government minister has been invited on as a guest. That is no way to treat a guest.
On a blog different standards, but I’m not going to snigger at someone’s foreign sounding name, and don’t mind paying for actual foreign people to be on British TV if they any good, we’ve had loads before especially from America, anyways it’s not your name that determines if you are British or not.
The issue of BBC being posh is interesting, sometimes they seem like posh prefects lording it over the little kids. But OTOH a lot of posh people say Portillo are respectful.
I notice people on this site refer to someone called ‘Charlie stayt ‘ when this beeboids ‘ real name is
Charles Jeffaries Stayt –
a resident of ‘st Margaret’s ‘ west London . Private school education . Wife and daughter – phoebe and son – Jake .
Obviously a true patriot .
I thought I’d put the record straight in the same way that naga munchetty is really –
Subha Nagalakshmi Munchetty-Chendriah
I wouldn’t want to be accused of racist or mysogeny – would I? Snigger ….
Fed,
“Subha Nagalakshmi Munchetty-Chendriah”
Aka, a foreigner.
G
Ms Munchety -Chendriah is one of the Tooting Munchety- Chendriah’s so I guess she has a UK passport . However judging by the content of the tweets she put out and supported -she is a citizen of no country – so has no allegiance to the one in which she earns her wages from UK taxpayers cash .
I guess she is an employee unlike Charles Stayt who sounds like a tax avoiding production company .
Fed,
So, ‘what you’re saying is’, when I become PM, I won’t be able to specify a country to get the Home Office to send her back to……..
A foreigner? I am not so sure. I remember Munchetty-Chendriahs used to hunt with the Cottesmore on the 50s.
Maybe they should make it mandatory to type in one’s full name to log in to Twitter?
Fed, I’m wondering how long we shall be able to say the word “snigger”. 😉
Don’t niggle.
(I am niggardly with my praise but I give you an uptick.)
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-56447682
What on earth is happening to “British” society?
The BBC obviously lap it up and put it on the homepage.
What about learning about all history, not just a BAME oriented one to tick a box.
I pity the future generations chances of being a normal functioning society when crap like this get thrust on children.
Wow there is a different standard in BBC news pages
Some news pages are really short.
Yet others like this one are long and carefully crafted, a lot of effort put into them.
As if they were part of a great PR campaign.
I entirely agree! Children should learn all about the Battle of Castillon, the English Armada (not Scottish children for this one obviously), the Battles of Saratoga and Isandlwana and, of course the Dieppe landings of 1942.
Ha ha, Naga Munshitty has been forced to apologise for tweeting, though apparently not for sniggering at Queen and Country in the first place.
“Naga Munchetty was scolded by BBC bosses and forced to apologise after she liked “offensive” tweets criticising a government minister for displaying the Union Jack in his office.”
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/media/bbc-apology-naga-munchetty-jenrick-b1819384.html
FakeNews from the Indy
She didn’t apologise it was a non-apology apology
‘I apologise for any offence *taken*,’ Ms Munchetty says
You can’t apologise for other people taking offence, only you giving it.
And they say “Naga Munchetty was .. *forced* to apologise.
The Indy also put offensive in air quotes.

You know – the trolls and other BBC lefties reading this site will say ‘ what’s all the fuss about ?” – but they won’t realise that this small incident provides clear evidence of the personal views of two of the bbc ‘talents ‘ as well as the true attitude of the BBC hierarchy ..
More than that – and more seriously – in my view – it gives a true indication of what sort of ‘Tories ‘ we have . The clown jenerick? Sat there with a Jim hacker face – no response – no ‘hang on a minute ‘ no ‘challenge ‘ to this beeboid .
I was thinking what the response of previous generations of Tories would have been . …
Yes, a small incident that reveals a whole state of mind at the anti-British Broadcasting Corporation.
And a pusillanimous response that says a lot about the timid Tories.
(Who should be called TINOs like the American RINOs.)
Fed,
“I was thinking what the response of previous generations of Tories would have been . …” –
‘Next time you interview me, I’ll make sure the flag covers the all of the viewers backdrop’.
Vile going the weasel in shining inference route.
Fedup- Can you imagine if you or I or a couple of hundred
or more Biased BBC contributors would of been at the end
of Stayt’s and Munchetty’s mockery. I would of turned it
right back on them . And it would not have been as polite
as calling them facetious scumbags.
Foscari- I haven’t heard any BBC broadcaster commenting about Scottish or EU flags being displayed .again – clear evidence of anti British bias .
And if the current DG thinks some symbolic movement of jobs from London to Leeds will make any difference he must be dumber than he looks . They will just take their bubble with them and turn a nice bit of Leeds into N1 . ( the peoples’ socialist republic of Islington )…
Not at the Scottish First Minister’s Covid briefings. There aren’t any flags.
I sense a sort of agenda lurking behind your posts. I may be wrong, of course.
Actually there are flag symbols on the screen behind Sturgeon (twice as big as her head)
and on the other people’s lecturns
check
… sure no fabric flags.
BTW Mark Drakeford seems to have two large Welsh flag behind him at briefings
The Guardian seems to have one TV briefing shows a big flag next to Sturgeon

Spot on Fed!
And comments over on Guido are definitely not going well for Naga, and her schoolmate, Staytyboy…
AS some MPS – even those who can read, look at his site as well as ours, there might just be a smidgeon of anxiety creeping in amongst the champagne be-bottled corridors of W1A!
Let’s keep up the pressure on this one, it’s too good an opportunity for normal citizens to give them a hard time!
There are exemptions at the BBC, clearly.
This is a sensitive issue. The bbc getting hold makes it a circus.
Oh FFS I’m sick of listening/watching these ‘kids’ who are so bloody mollycoddled its reached the point of absurdity. If they’re not suffering with anxiety, or other mental health ‘issues’ they’re protesting on the streets or moaning about not being allowed to wear a nose-ring to school and having to have ‘counselling’ to cope with it.
How come up until 20 years ago, we just grew up and went to school, did our homework and had a Saturday job ? Our men’al elf issues amounted to a headache now and again. Dear God what have we come to.
Too right, Brissles!
Unfortunately Tony Blair told all the kids that they were soooo special they could get to some sort of university, and therefore could become soooo clever at things like medja and politics!
Of course, because they still lived with mum and dad, well usually just mum, they believed it all, and while the unemployment figures were slashed at a whim, and the awful bbbc squawked the success of such brilliance to the heavens, the new race of miserable kids began it’s trawl across the bottom of a rather unpleasant lake of reality!
Now they’re mums and dads themselves – or just mums – they might understand that life’s what you put in, not what you take out.
The awful bbbc is desperate to get these kids to listen to their tosh, hence the woke, boring patois drone of ‘new’ presenters doing boring items on boring subjects to attract thick kids.
Thus, the elite keep the trogs in their boxes for a generation!
Here’s on for Panorama to investigate. Apparently PFIs in the public sector are coming to the end of their contract periods with properties fully paid for and charges of £350 for changing a light bulb ending. So surely, we must see either an improvement in services with the saved money or a reduction in the need for taxation to pay for the existing services? Yeah, okay. This world is run by and for the benefit of extremely wealthy people. If an individual or organisation were able to make a billion pounds profit on a project they would think nothing of “investing” 10% of that to facilitate getting the contract. Or, in other words, one hundred decision makers could be offered one million pounds EACH. Not directly of course, that would be fraud, but promised after dinner speaking engagements, book deals and directorships. Examples abound and, like the Epstein murder, they will get away with it – because they can.
Popeye – what saved money ?
The end of the PFI contracts was highlighted years ago as a potential disaster point, but Gordon Brown and his buddies, who commissioned these PFI contracts, didn’t care – because they wouldn’t be around when that time came. The buildings may well appear to be ‘paid off’ as you say – what that actually means is that we have only come to the end of the original contracts.
But the buildings and facilities belong to the builders and contractors who provided them, because they took all the investment risks – not to the public bodies (i.e Health Authorities, Local Government bodies, etc. – mainly in Labour constituences, of course), who commissioned them.
Now, if these bodies haven’t built new schools, hospitals, etc., etc., to replace them (and they almost certainly haven’t) then they will continue to have to rent or lease these same buildings/facilities, but there is no cap on the costs which might be charged…. for years to come, possibly.
Watch them bleating to the government (i.e. the taxpayer) that they can’t afford these new contracts, and somebody else will have to wind up paying for them, trying to blackmail the government with tales of hospitals, schools, etc., closing and throwing their end users like patients, schoolchildren, etc., into the streets.
As I said at the start, this was all known and predicted from the day Brown and co. started these ‘jolly wheezes’ to take the cost of the buildings out of the ‘long-term public debt’ column in the government financial reports, since they were then able to be called lower-level current debts, and not higher, and longer-term capital debts. This was done to fiddle the government and public sector books, trying to build the charicature of Gordon Brown as a ‘prudent’ chancellor, and Prime MInister… knowing full well that the outcome of all this would not happen under his tenure of office. Yes, I know that PFI schemes were not invented by Brown, but they had been sparingly, and fairly wisely used, with no long-term diasters in the making, prior to Prudence Brown and his vast financial manipulations. Welcome to Brown’s reality.
I hope to hell someone has the courage to point back at Blair/Brown Labour governments, and pin the whole resulting fiasco on them and their public sector mates at the time.
But I fear that’s not something the BBC will wish to resurrect on a Panorama programme, for instance.
You will be able to rely on the BBC’s selective memory:
NHS conceived by a Conservative minister, put in place by following Labour administration = Labour Good.
Coal mine closures under Labour, Aberfan, bad NCB. Closures under Thatcher = Consevatives Bad (they inherit Labour’s too).
PFI proposed by Conservatives but used massively by Labour = Conservatives Bad.
As you say, PFI is an accountancy fiddle, pushing capital spend into current spend. We get similar fiddles the other way too, MOD administration, current spend, gets contacted to defence companies and rolled up into equipment projects as part of ‘front-line’ capital spend. MOD pushes pen = bad; BAeSystems pushes pen = good.
Of topic but we see the same thing happening with the US, what was Trump’s problems are now the USA’s, Trump’s successes, the USA’s, Biden’s (we can but hope!), his. Ditto Scotland, the good = SNP, the bad = Westminster.
Superb description of a disaster waiting to happen, Richard!
While I was only marginally involved with contractors getting these contracts going – at great cost and investment themselves, I knew what was going on and the end result was always going to be a bail-out by government, and the worst chancellor of all time with his mate Blair knew all along that this was going to come back with a vengeance when they’d made their personal pile and moved on.
Panorama would praise the schemes to the rooftops, but with the leftie lightweights they have to present the stuff, they’d never understand what really went on, so the prog would be worthless.
A few days ago, two black teens in NY doused a disabled white man with a flammable fluid and deliberately set him on fire.
He died of 70% burns.
The racist BBC have shown no interest whatsoever in the shocking story, because the perpetrators were black.
Imagine if the races were reversed: riots around the world; months of BLM burning, looting and murdering; abject compulsory kneeling; and the racist BBC devoting endless wall-to-wall coverage to the story.
But, as we know, White Lives Don’t Matter to the racist BBC, so not a single mention.
(The Mail reported the story but didn’t dare reveal their ethnicity.)

Black Teens Burn Disabled White Man to DEATH
Boris and one or two original insights
And never the Twain shall meet
‘After six years, ministers have woken up to sexual harrassment‘
– that’s a feature headline in the ‘i’ newspaper this morning – but with a PM attached to a younger live-in girlfriend who is believed to have badgered him into taking up various of her pet policies, no doubt via a little pillow talk, to put it mildly – I think that headline risks some misinterpretation.
Goodness only knows what monsterous dominatrix entity keeps the pyschopathic-looking Matt Hancock imprisoned in his sinister little red-painted Zoom chamber?
Is there a Mr Priti Patel, one shudders to imagine him.
So what ‘i‘ columist Cathy Newman is saying is… (to coin a phrase of her’s) is…
The usual leftist elitist feminist claptrap.
Having achieved the equality biology will allow (at least in the western world) here’s another miliant feminist push for supremacy. Feminism apparently enjoying more supposed waves than covid.
It is interesting how Leftist tendencies operate these days. They take an isolated, often one-in-a-million, news event (eg the death of George Floyd) and extrapolate, twist, embellish, narrate… for all they’re worth, until the event becomes falsely emblematic of their politics. But no matter. On the wave of momentum thus manufactured they push through some legalistic notions of supposed further equality that in fact enshrine preference under our laws and in time to come will tie us in knots.
There was a time when the appearance of a masked man was a sign that he had likely arrived on our doorstep to rob us.
Boris is pictured thus on the frontpage of the Daily Telegraph: ‘“The jab is safe. The thing that isn’t safe is catching Covid”‘
This comes as the BBC informs us: ‘The prime minister is to receive his first dose of the Oxford-AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine after reassuring the public it was “safe”‘
On the basis that Boris has already had the covid that seems like a waste of a precious jab.
Oh, that’s true, you say, but he is doing this as a symbolic performative act in the cause of public health, not as a logical scientifically sound, medically appropriate act.
Ah, I say, there’s a thing… as I don an unpleasant nuisance of an ineffective mask for some reason just to go into Sainsbury’s, perchance to stock up on booze (boosting their already mega corporate profits) so as to prepare to suffer yet another Friday without a visit to a minor family-run local hostelry (now on the verge of bankruptsy and complete closure).
Added to which, I personally (for the sake of argument) may share Boris’s age profile, though perhaps not his pudgy physique, his jet-setting Chinese official glad-handing lifestyle, or serial greenie Sloan Ranger-banging habits… but I ain’t been so careless enough as yet to have caught the Wuham Flu – like he did.
So jab away Boris… and in the words of Shania Twain: “That don’t impress me much”
And in the words of Mark Twain (no relation, his name at least – I don’t know that much about Shania – was a nom de plume) : “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect”
Asiseeit
But look on the bright side – now that the government has killed off the nations High Streets there won’t be traffic congestion – so no need for parking restrictions or congestion charges .
Also – now that all the pubs are closing down they can be turned into ‘homes for illegals ‘ as well as using hotels – call them ‘brown field sites ‘.
As an aside – I wonder if any citizen has a list of the hotels being used to house the illegals coming across the channel unchalllenged every day ?
It would be a handy guide of places to avoid in the future ….
Particularly for wimmin.
Can you call them “brown field sites”, is that not a racial slur? Should they not be called non white sites instead?
Loony lady of the lumber I await your inanity.
bBC website reports its now compulsory for Welsh school children to be taught about BAME history, but not compulsory regarding Welsh history!
I am British born, and was proud of this nation growing up as a kid, it now means less and less as each day passes
Its ashame for the new president
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-56446814
Maybe as the new president is a soft touch, thats why so many are now appearing at the border!
Imagine this “report” if President Trump would have been in office.
Also Biden doesn’t seem to like facing the camera and doing news conferences either, hopefully the bBC will help him out with that also!
I caught a snippet of an interview yesterday between an Indian bbc correspondent in India and an autocue reader.
The Indian was explaining why the UK vaccine being produced in India is not coming here as planned , one of the reasons put forward was that the Biden False Administration – has banned the export of stuff used in preparing vaccines .
Now I was thinking about how the BBC would have treated this if the real president Mr Trump had done it … yet I hear… ….silence
Evidence of bias by omission ( unless the Indian politician is lying of course… )
The garden gnome denies misleading Scottish Parliament.
It will take a stick of dynamite to dislodge her from her seat.
Anybody noticed the decline in ‘resignable offences’? They’re all at it.
Bring back Guy Fawkes.
G, is the Wee Burney’s nose getting longer and longer or is it just the camera angle and a wide angle lens?
To use a phrase from the Scottish play, methinks the lady doth protest too much.
The last few days the BBC has gone obssessed with rape and news conference accusations of white men raping women alleged to have happened many years ago but never reported to the police.
Meanwhile they bury news of actual convicted black rapists so you can only find it by Googling it and never via the BBC News homepage
eg. just yesterday but I don’t recall seeing it on the homepage
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-56430523
Awaiting demonstrations and vigils regarding the murder of Lorraine Cox. Trial of the accused, Azam Mangori, continues. He allegedly cut her body up in the kebab shop.
https://www.devonlive.com/news/devon-news/lorraine-cox-kebab-murder-exeter-5187150
Found it on BBC local news
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-56416010
Yes I mentioned Exeter last night
after I heard Mike Graham cut a caller off
he’d let the caller mention a man had been charged but cut him off shouting sub-judice before he could explain no the case was already in court
and Farage has a video about it.
It shows to me London media is a soap opera rather than truthland.
March 17 video about Lorraine Cox coverup from Farage
Farage telling it like it is, as usual.
The suspect in the Exeter murder was a failed asylum seeker from Iraq.
The racist BBC and the rest of the liberal-leftist media – which is practically all of them – were always going to cover up for that most protected of species.
And the right-on ‘sistas’ were never going to protest against a BAME like they did against the white suspect in the case of Sarah Everard.
Some White Lives Matter more than others, apparently.
What’s the ratio on here between those who have had/won’t have the vaccine?
Got my letter today.
Changed mind so often on this.
1. What liberties/services will be restricted if I don’t have it?
or
2. The same people that tell me I’m a horrible racist and Biden won the US election fairly want me to have it.
Thatch – being in Londonistan- i thought id get mine later rather than sooner .
But today is 21 days after getting the tizer jab . No after effects apart from picking quite a few winners at cheltenham .
I know the microchip they injected is now monitoring me even more than before but i accept that as i dont want to be at the mercy of their NHS ….
-., as for the false president – a few questions are starting to be asked – plot going to plan . Gone by June
Take a look at Katie Hopkins’s video from yesterday – it’s about the psyops used by the Former UK government and NHS to encourage/cajole/insist that you have their vaccine. Sinister stuff.
VIVA KATIE!
I’m more of a natural contrarian with a healthy streak of scepticism, rather than being some red-necked anti-vax hillbilly survivalist type (sadly).
Scepticism of anything advised by officials has served me well.
Just the other day a work colleague complained that due to parking, congestion charges and other new taxation costs, his diesel car he had purchased on the back of official eco recomendations was now too expensive for him run in London.
Didn’t you hear the latest news from the government, I asked – we are no longer at war with Eurasia, they are now and always were our allies?
He looked at me bemused, since if he ever had read Orwell, he’d forgotten the reference.
I will only take the vax reluctantly and do so only as and when the buggers have contrived to make my life miserable enough with their petty restrictions without me having one – or is it two, or another couple next winter, what with the mutant varients… or…. how many now, Mr Gates?
AsISeeIt
That’s pretty much my view also.
Given its consistent, long-term, background support for the return to Greece of the likes of the ‘Elgin Marbles’, I wonder what the BBC’s reaction will be to the blanket refusal of the French to the recent demand that the ‘Bayeux Tapestry’ be returned to the UK, where it was made.
Somehow, I can’t see any clamour of support from the BBC for that idea.
“blanket refusal”
… AFAIK it’s not confirmed was supposed to be a loan in 2024 but the Bayeux mayor wants UK to restore it for free.
Can we have “Normandy ” back under our control as well !
BBC news having to report the vaccination chaos in theReich .
In france they ve gone to over 65s being vaccinated then down to over 55s .
Then the French PM says he is to be vaccinated this afternoon . He is 54 so breaches the rules
Then Paris is to ‘lock down’ for a month because infection is out of control .
Lucky no one comes to the UK from France isnt it ?
Apparently, you are OK to come across from France .
With the proviso that your mode of transport is in a rubber dinghy and that you have no passport or proof of identification.
I am very surprised that the ‘Begum girl’ has not come in that way, all paid for by barristers of legal profession.
I shan’t be bothering, thank you.
Over 70 living in France, haven’t even been offered the jab yet. If only they would use the astra zeneca jab on all the brit ex pats over here it would be OK.
People seemed interested in the Chauvin court case
Robert Barnes covered it in the second half of the podcast direct link
It’s preliminary trial stage
#1 The city of Minneapolis had been chosen as the venue
#2 The jury challenges had been done
#3 The politicians threw a spanner in the works by publicising a $37m damages settlement instead of keeping it for after trial
#4 Judge chose to revet the jury
and threw out those who said that they might be influenced by the settlement
The argument being that the politicians are trying to rig the trial by insinuating that the cop must be guilty otherwise no settlement would have been made.
Yesterday the judge complained about new press conferences from the politicians.
..of course the jury might backlash against such jerrymandering
#5 So far the jury has 3 black men and some mixed race
in a city that is largely white.
If the judge moves the trial outside the city the juror pool would be 85% white.
#6 so far they almost have a full jury
“Decisions on a venue change and possible delay
are expected from Judge Peter Cahill Friday morning in the Derek Chauvin trial. “
When Blair and his crew designed the devolution process for Scotland even in their wildest cool Britannia dreams could they have foreseen the shape of Brigadoon today.
1) Surely a fit and proper process would have made it impossible for the Crown prosecution service to be subsumed by the Scottish Government
2) That the state public broadcaster is used as a media and SNP propaganda service courtesy of the Licence Tax payer
3) The Police force is centralised and many think under SNP control
4) Laws intruding on personal liberties have been put on the books, the latest called the “Hate Crime” law courtesy of a so called Justice Minister who allegedly has been pictured on social media sporting a Celtic FC training hoodie!
5) And on top of all the other SNP disasters we are now to have a nationalised rail service.
Well at least we can look forward to the return of curly sandwiches.
That war monger has a lot to answer for.

Was under a workbench this time.
Noticed that their Global Propaganda managed to work in ‘the English Variant’ as to why the EU was having some problems.
Better with a hammer than I imagined.
Need a new radio now.

But only if you can find a Scotrail train that hasn’t been cancelled or delayed. Things were bad when it was British Rail, God alone knows what it will be like if Nickerlegs and her cronies take charge. Still they do say that the only 2 good things to come out of Scotland are the roads and the railway.

“It appears not finding Mrs Brown Boys funny is wrong think and a bannable offence.”
Its not funny ! Al Beeb don’t do comedy.
Nevertheless, you are to be commended for your attempted post on Al Beeb’s HYS by many on this site.
Al Beeb are behaving as if they exist in a Marxist state.

“It’s always the same. Broadband speeds get updated, 90% of the country get connected,
IT firms (thinking they are clever) make their websites more complicated, and the 10 in rural areas that are not connected (we’ve not even got 3G let alone 5G) get left behind.”
So much for levelling up!
Why hasn’t Al Beeb been cancelled or deleted ?
Don’t we have any Tory MPs any more ? What on earth does Oliver Dowden do for his money ?
ah maybe they are deleting comments based on downvotes
Yours got 33 and the other one got 18
Who operates the up/down votes machine ?
Now that’s outrageous. What other comments are removed to create an artificial impression?
On that last point I think we can agree to agree. Aversion to MBB is across the spectrum.
Twitter people “Here is some CCTV pics of black robbers at Oxford Circus tube station”
Me :”Hang on the robberies were on New Year’s Eve at lunchtime .. I wish racists would top tweeting old stories”
.. Oh my mistake The British Transport Police are so screwed up that they’re only tweeting images 12 weeks later
The one on the right looks familiar.
Just kids, really.
Well, then.
Apparently flags are a BBC sneering matter
Of course BBC progs often use their own flag and symbols
Flying flags upside down?
Dear me. Hoist on their own petard.

Slapping ‘solidarity’ at the end of stuff seems prevalent amongst the idiot classes in politics and media. JezCo, most of the shadow front bench and… this twit.

Back in the day my profession near ceased to exist. Not exactly a skill set applicable elsewhere locally I ended up in Asia via Australia. Seemed to work out. Met all sorts of other expats along the way.
Gabby and Co might ponder a while how service families cope. And many other jobs here.
Had a mate just bought a house when his retail bosses moved him halfway across the country.
At least the miners did something useful, but the notion the world owes you a job location for life as well as a job is very BBC.
I have a friend who was brought up in Middlesbrough and he pointed me in the direction of a YouTube video about the history of the place.
It told how, like many industrial towns, people moved to it in search of work. Now when the work goes their descendants go on benefits until, sometime never, work comes to them.
What happened to the spirit of adventure? Feminised out of society?
Quite!
During my bbc 2 series…..I was offered a job on Channel 4…which would have lasted months.
BBC told me not to take it because they had big plans for me.
Those plans went to someone else. So I turned down work.
Not good for mental health if you are a working class northerner.
Things got rough….so for work my partner got a job …in IoM.
It also meant a proper upbringing for our lad.
It was the financial crisis…we sold up….way below market value. Now it’s time to return….but we can’t afford to buy a nice home……prices have rocketed because of QE fake money printing…..and the rapid increase in U.K. population.
So our plan now is to live on a caravan site but prices have inflated due to Covid.
I of course did remind them of my existence every week.
So I suppose I’m having a moment of bitterness just now.
As they said to me….it’s a tough business.
As the BBC will doubtless confirm, there is nothing wrong with Biden, he’s fit and compos mentis, fully up to leading the Free World, and he won the election fair and square.

Joe Biden falls while boarding Air Force One
This was clearly the work of President Trump . You can see him in the picture pulling the carpet.
Will the BBC cover this at all
?
Will False President Harris get ready to take the oath ?
Will the MSM notice ?
Will the american voters realise theyve been had ?
That will not be the only public fall the false president will suffer – like many – i have personal experience of caring for someone with dementia from the early stages to the end – balance becomes impared .
I feel sorry that biden has been put in a place which will accelerate his condition .
‘Will False President Harris get ready to take the oath ?’
Who do you think pulled the carpet? (No, not Trump.)
Fedup2 and Vlad
just thinking, I don’t think she needs to take the oath, as she is not the leader of the plot to rig elections and install a fake President. Whoever is running the show probably does not care who is obeying orders.
I left another question off
How will all those lefty BBC ‘ comedy ‘ programmes deal with this ? Compared to say – if it had happened to the Teue President ?
Trump is to blame
GWF
Thank you for the Laugh out Loud .
I’m sure this will be seen across the BBC comedy and current affairs circuit across the weekend….
Where’s Gerry Ford with that chewing gum ?
Breaking News.
Biden’s fall was caused by climate change – apparently one of the reporters said there was a very strong wind which blew him over.
The independent or the guardian reported the stumbling pres story but backed it up with a list of presidents past who had stumbled in any way whatsoever. Including of course trump who’s shoes slipped very slightly on a walkway. I am Beginning to wonder if the us president croaks will they have him put in a glass case and propped up in the corner of White House until someone notices?
Stannah stairlift to be fitted to Air Force One?
Oh JimS – I thought it but didn’t have the courage to write it …lol
Meanwhile BBC ITV C4 don’t report it ….
Unbelievably – Twitter has a picture of the false president sitting on a …..
16 MPs complaint letter to the BBC
“Secretary of State at a UK Govt having the UK Flag (Union Flag) and portrait of Head of State (HM The Queen) up in their office is about as unsurprising as it comes.
It seems a very bizarre UK thing to somehow do this down.”
Jenrick’s new tweet
Only 16 MPs ?
Taffman – proof that the BBC has too many friends in the red Tory Party … I think i can guess the list…
Hugh Edwards goes for trolling
Still not getting it are they? They still contrive appear insouciant about it…..but at the same time making sure their clever arse-ness is on view.
A clearer indication of the absolute nastiness embedded in this foul organisation I can’t imagine.
Little doubt that the BBC-ites about to be shipped to the gulags in the North will be the less lefty souls and will be soon replaced with the new “faithful” in W1A…
I don’t think you will see Naga getting cosy with her fellow folk in Rotherham for instance.
I think breakfast telly comes from Salford already.
Interesting – sky leading with the stabbing murder 2 days ago Of an 18 year old in E17… I can’t think why because this was just another killing – next one due within the next 24 hours if stats apply …
Meanwhile the BBC leads with the SNP non story – the frog Pm having the Oxford jab and then .
… the leader of the free world having a triple accident doesn’t feature …
They have this interview with witnesses mother
that’s not new news
cos Thursday morning news stories quoted the exact same words.
Noth they and the video deliberately omit the description of the perp
At least one tweeter has described them as black youths
Today it’s BBC Red-Face day
..Naga & Charlie are the leading act
Very much looking forward to Comic Relief. All the usual suspects together in perfect harmony led by none other than Knight about town Lenny. And you accepted that for what reason? Ah, of course, the Hypocrites Club confers so many advantages. Shame about the street-cred though. I think I’ll give it a miss.
Last night’s BBC local news
“A victim who’s wife died of Covid is leading the campaign for a public inquiry, we have a special prog at the weekend”
… that’s the fat lesbian couple yet again.
That Sunday morning BBC1 prog is One Year of Covid Victims
From her Twitter feed I see that the campaign for an inquiry isn’t her own initiative It’s a LABOUR PARTY thing
Tonight’s ITV news
coming up : the female jockey again
Which reminds me of a very,very old joke. Who was the last 25 stone bloke to ride a Derby winner? Lester Piggot’s cell mate.
I know where my coat is.
Fascinating subbing.
Due to the unique way the BBC is funded they can have 5 presenters for Red Nose Day all presenting at the same time.
Worse overstaffing than the council filling a pot hole.
Tabs
Its about time that they had a Black Nose Day. Or even a different colour so that everyone can ‘pick’ their own.
Looks like c4 has fallen out of love with its ‘ police service – ‘the front line emergency service ‘ is now a nasty male abuser of females ‘ machine …. plod is now full of mysogenists –
– perhaps C4 wants to defund plod ….
And of course – no mention of bumbling Biden
I want to defund ‘plod’! Under Burnhams Jackboots they are more of a Gestapo than a Police force concentrating on the opression of the hated whites, never turning up to deal with real crime, and more interested in the hurty feelings of a few favoured minorites.
And the cowardly useless incompetent far left Tories allowed him to raise even more money this year to pay for his screw ups and failures !
Defund them as soon as possible !
Guido is not what he was, alas! Or what we thought he was.
Twitter is pushing this out
“Why the UK flag is sometimes considered a controversial”
As ever their headline is NOT justified by their story
“Comments made by BBC Breakfast presenter Charlie Stayt
have led to a debate around both disrespect for the Union Jack
and the problematic history often associated with the UK’s national flag.
During an interview, the government’s housing minister Robert Jenrick
spoke in front of a large Union Flag.
Another presenter, Naga Munchetty, later apologised after responding to posts online about the incident. “
(That’s their entire story)
Why does everyone appear to be calling it the UK Flag, the union flag, the British flag?
Its correct name is the union Jack and its history proves that. Back in the day the cowardly useless incompetent King James st (said because he had been made so by his courtiers in Scotland prior to taking the English Throne) decided he wanted to fully unify his Kingdom and began a project to design a flag which would contain elements of the two countries Scotland and England and represent both of them.
In 1606 he gave orders for the design of a new flag and according to some it is a shortening of his Latin name ‘Jacobus’ or the fact he signed his name in the French ‘Jacques’ that the flag takes its name.
Thoughtful, Union Flag is the correct name. Union ‘Jack’ is a slang term, cannot remember the origin of which – may be something to do with the Navy, Jack Tars and all that.
Known as the Union Jack since the early 1900s following an Admiralty decree. The RN flies the Ensign, and the Union Flag is flown primarily when in port from the ‘jack staff’.
There’s a bit more to it but that’s a quick summary for a Friday evening.
The wild woman creature that haunts here would know all about the union flag, it was in favour of it being burned at the cenotaph a while back. Scum, just like those two at the BBC this week.
Neither of these are true, in fact the ‘jackstaff’ itself might well have taken its name from the flag rather than the other way around!
As you will see from my post it was known as the Union Jack from the early 1600s so where your idea it didn’t acquire the name until the early 1900s came from is odd. Even more odd because a ‘jackstaff’ is more usual on a sailing ship and the early 1900s was the time of dreadnoughts!
Just to set the record straight without doubt here is the Parliamentary website which confirms what I have written.
https://www.parliament.uk/about/living-heritage/evolutionofparliament/legislativescrutiny/act-of-union-1707/overview/union-of-the-crowns/
“In 1606 he gave orders for a British flag to be created which bore the combined crosses of St George and of St Andrew. The result was the Union Jack, Jack being a shortening of Jacobus, the Latin version of James.”
If a parent wants to send their child from the UK to the USA or vice versa there are some formalities to be carried out to ensure that the child isn’t being removed from the other parent.
How then is it right that the USA operates an open door policy for unaccompanied children on its southern border?
Do Latino children have fewer rights than ‘white’ children? Seems so.
E.G.
Me too. Basic pension and 49 years’ contributions.
I was stupid enough to pay additional contributions when at university as a mature student.
I’m sure it went to good cause.
