Here’s a story the BBC haven’t covered yet – I wonder why?
“Michel Barnier calls for non-EU immigration into France to be suspended for up to five years”
What?? I thought only nasty racist far-right Little-Englander Brexiteers wanted to control immigration, not enlightened progressive EU Commissars – sorry, Commissioners.
Couldn’t be that he’s sensed which way the wind is blowing, now that he’s re-entering French politics – could it?
Reminds me of the saying by Gandhi, who is so beloved of lefties: First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
I suspect as populism grows (despite virulent opposition from such as the BBC), we can expect more erstwhile liberal lefties to jump on various bandwagons.
“Michel Barnier has called for all non-European Union immigration into France to be banned for up to five years. The EU’s former Brexit negotiator said immigration was “not working”…”
Horse and stable door comes to mind.
They , the EU are now realising that’s one of the prime reasons why we left the corrupt oligarchy.
One day now, Bo Jo and his voice of ‘getting tough’, Pritstick Patel will wake up and realise that mass immigration is not what we, the people of Great Britain want.
Get our borders secured, scrap Border Farce and start using our real forces , The Royal Navy and Royal Marines. After all, that’s what we pay them for isn’t it?
Anyone would think that Michel Barnier wanted to get involved in a political content
where he was under severe threat from an anti-immigration party like Michelle Le Pen.
Seems cos Macron is under pressure, Barnier might run for the Republicans on an anti-immigration ticket to keep Le Pen out.
Don’t you think it’s odd (and by ‘odd’ I mean totally dishonest) that this has come out of the blue ?.
I haven’t seen anything on the BBC to say there is any kind of problem with immigration in the EU.
(This is where shameless hypocrites like Maxi link to a BBC article which covers it (along with some smug and slightly bitter comment) but fail to mention how it was only on the front page for 3 hours between 1am and 4am).
To understand how serious the situation is in the Western world, it is worth noting that some Americans view this administration as a Stalinist one, that is attempting to subjugate America by military force.
How the Left Plans To Put Boots on the Ground to Subdue Middle America
It was clear for at least two decades, that importing large numbers of people who have no attachment to the republic – the secular (France) or the constitutional one(USA), will eventually lead to a civil war. How can they, as one has a ready made constitution, Sharia, and another which owes allegiance to money. Neither has any understanding of Western civilisation, its roots and founding principles.
Jihadis operating in France and in America, and excuses made for them and the ideology that guides and drives them. Recipe for disaster. Ordinary people fed to the war.
Of course we will be affected in a major way, and we will bear the greatest responsibility, till both republics come to their senses.
For Britain Manifesto p.28 Freeze immigration to the UK for a period of 5 years (this will not affect travel for business or leisure and temporary work visas may be issued during this time in the interests of the economy). https://www.forbritain.uk/manifesto/
However, he also said: “I’m not talking about students or refugees, who we need to treat with humanity and care…”
When it comes to politicians, there’s a lot of flexiblity in those terms as they usually consider that refugees, asylum seekers, economic migrants and criminals escaping justice or looking to pursue criminal careers elsewhere are all one and the same thing. We can also expect a big emphasis on so-called ‘climate refugees’ as we Build Back Better.
Who would want a person susceptible to being blown in any wind direction to be in any position of power? We ask regularly why it is that we end up with wasters deciding our future. This is how that situation comes about.
The EU will agree, as it never disagrees with what France wants.
The EU working model is – France wants, Germany pays for it, and the EU legalises it.
Its surprising we ever thought that we could come between the two.
Regardless,, this is a positive sign for Europe. The only problem is that Boris will accept all Muslims migrants, and those displaced by the EU, into the UK.
I’ve copied this over from the last thread, as recommended by Fedup2, so my apologies in advance if you’ve already seen it.
————
Here is a little game for your amusement.
Given below are two items from the BBC news website. One is genuine and the other is fictional. Let’s see if you can guess which one is which.
Story One:
‘I’m ashamed my father was a BLM rioter’
“Over the past five years, Jay Savory became more concerned as her father became immersed in far-left protest actions. Then she saw the picture of him in handcuffs outside a police station in Portland (Oregon) in November last year.
Duncan Savory declined to be interviewed by the BBC.
He is one of hundreds of BLM protesters who stormed the police station six months ago. We look at how many people have been arrested, and ask what punishment they might face.”
Story Two:
‘I’m ashamed my father was a Capitol Hill rioter’
“Over the past five years, Robyn Sweet became more concerned as her father became immersed in far-right conspiracy theories. Then she saw the picture of him in handcuffs inside the US Capitol building on 6 January.
Douglas Sweet declined to be interviewed by the BBC.
He is one of hundreds of pro-Trump protesters who stormed the US Capitol four months ago. We look at how many people have been arrested, and ask what punishment they might face.”
Mustapha Sheikup al-Beebi
“I’ve copied this over from the last thread, as recommended by Fedup2, so my apologies in advance if you’ve already seen it.”
You scoundrel you !
Go and sit in the corner for an hour as punishment and write 500 lines of “I hate Al Beeb”.
And after all the hype, how many will be charged with ‘Insurrection’ ?.
None. It’s all unlawful entry and trespass. I’ve ridiculous stories with things like ‘He pushed a policeman’ used as if he was nearly killed.
Maximum possible is 1 year in jail.
When nobody is actually charged with insurrection, politicians who said it was should be next in the dock. Start with the hate-filled, hypocritical old hag Pelosi who should have been crucified for some of the things she has said and done.
“Ten people killed in west Belfast almost 50 years ago in the wake of an Army operation were “entirely innocent”, an inquest has found.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-56986784
How many innocent men, women and children did the IRA blow to bits in their ‘bomb their way to the ballot box’ campaign?
.. and the only ‘proof’ needed for this was one persons judgement on the ‘probability’. After 50 years and a massive amount of pressure to come up with the ‘right’ answer.
It’s a complete farce.
Following on from yesterday’s revelation that Bradford (BD Post Codes) have the greatest instances of Cash for Crash it now also transpires that the BD Post Codes accout for a quarter of all current COVID deaths. I wonder how car insurance scams and COVID deaths could possibly be linked…? Cash for Covid ???
Bradford records almost quarter of England’s Covid-related hospital deaths today
I caught the tail end of some Minister being interviewed on Toady just before the weather at 0757 over the issue of planned legislation to tighten up voting security. BBC trying desperately to pull the whole thing apart. It occurred to me that with no dishonest immigrants / Labour voters, there would likely be no need of, ‘tightening up’. New legislation? Well, no doubt designed with the dishonest in mind. But, but, but, in that knowledge, could the new legislation be claimed to be, ‘anti immigrant’ and therefore, ‘racist’?
“2.29 Police forces recorded more than ten cases in only five individual local
authority areas:
• 11 cases were recorded in relation to Northumberland
• 13 cases were recorded in relation to County Durham
• 14 cases were recorded in relation to Bradford
• 14 cases were recorded in relation to Cornwall
• 16 cases were recorded in relation to Tower Hamlets
2.30 Bradford and Tower Hamlets are both areas where we have previously identified a higher risk of allegations of electoral fraud, and where the respective Returning Officers and police forces have already taken steps to put in place additional actions to tackle electoral fraud which go further than the plans we would normally expect to see in areas with a lower risk of fraud
allegations.”
Do they fly direct from India/paki land to Bradford ? By the way – watching the ‘urgent ‘ question over hamaz attacking Israel – the Vibrant Bradford MPs were fully engaged with the Muslim terrorist friends – better than worrying about an imported covid strain in the ‘community’ isn’t it ?
The amount of credulous, selective platform given to Omar over there and Sultana here suggests the media has been infested by a very specific type of propagandist.
Checking the ballistic pathways on those in Gaza sadly lost might find similar trends, albeit the 40% likely actual children in front of the sandbags the 60% behind were firing from.
Absolutely : anyone who will put a suicide vest on a child then tell them to go to the checkpoint will have no problem putting them around the place they fire their weapons.
Unfortunately for them, the Israelis have been on the receiving end so much they don’t mess about. Wherever the fire comes from gets destroyed.
The blood is on the hands of Hamas – but the BBC will tell us whatever suits their agenda.
They should be making a big point that Hamas are committing a war crime. They are avoiding the issue altogether. Some of that blood is on the BBC too.
wow that Kabul school attack “The Afghan Vice president says 86 children killed in blasts near school in Kabul
As many as 86 children were killed in Saturday’s blasts near Syed-ul-Shuhada school in Kabul, First Vice President Amrullah Saleh said on Tuesday
Saleh suggested that the attack was carried out by the Taliban,
But the BBC are more concerned about
‘Rockets target Tel Aviv after Gaza tower destroyed’
Militants attack the Israeli city after an air strike brings down a tower block in Gaza.
The implication in the article is that the retaliation is quite understandable. I even though to myself ‘Oh dear – how many dead in the tower block ?’.
You have to dig into the article to discover Israel gave them an hour and a halfs warning to evacuate. The 130 (yes, ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY) rockets on the other hand were unguided missiles being fired indiscriminantly to try and kill totally innocent civilians in a city.
NOT THE SAME THING AT ALL BBC. YOU DISGUST ME.

Maybe Twitter can explain to me
why there are hundreds of pro-Israel replies to that tweet which themselves have hundreds of likes
yet 2 of the first 3 replies Twitter puts are the top are anti-Trump tweets from random accounts, and have very few Likes
.. That makes it look like Twitter is curating the discussion to be lefty.
BTW seems the actual pipepline is still working fine, as it was just one oil tank that burnt.
IDF say 1050 rockets were fired into Israel
Yes fragments sometimes land in Tel Aviv city
but seems no one was hurt inside the city.

“Lessons to be learned any one” ?
These (and the BBC’s) twitter links are most interesting to see what else these people have to say. This one replied to him:
Zarah Sultana MP
11 May
Tonight, seeing footage of Israeli airstrikes kill men, women and children in Gaza, I send my solidarity, my love and my prayers to the Palestinian people.
Did you see the 200 rockets which Hamas fired first dear ?. They are trying to swamp the missile defenses to kill completely innocent men, women and children who live their lives every day and night ready to run into bomb shelters when the sirens go off.
Yes of course you did. You hypocritical, lowlife scumbag.
The biggest reply to Zara’s anti-Israel tweet is from Yasmine Mohammed the #FreeFromHijab woman
..still she only got 170 Likes
She said “You stand safely thousands of miles away.
Shut the fk up. Their children are being killed and you’re cheering more violence.
You do not care about Palestinians.“
Absolutely ghoulish. Never let a crisis go to waste!

Basic economy, incomings must exceed outgoings, simple. If not, borrow until times are good again.
First quarter of this year the economy contracted by 1.3% but what the idiot didn’t say was it actually grew by back by 2.1% in March and according to the ONS, good performance.
Do these pieces of pond life on the BBC not learn, there beloved Labour just got a hiding.

Israel-Palestinian conflict intensifies
Conflict between Israeli forces and Palestinian militants has intensified with Israel declaring a state of emergency in the central city of Lod. Rioting by Israeli Arabs has seen cars set alight and 12 people were reported injured in the clashes. Tension has been building for weeks and clashes have since escalated between Israel and Hamas – and so far at least 35 Palestinians, including 10 children, and five Israelis have been killed, health officials say.
Hundreds of missiles were fired at the Israeli city of Tel Aviv by Palestinian militants after an Israeli air strike demolished a tower block in the Gaza Strip yesterday. Israel’s military says it is targeting militants in Gaza in response to rocket attacks on Jerusalem and other areas. The conflict between the two has now stirred unrest among the Arab minority inside Israel, leading to protests. This led to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declaring a state of emergency, which has seen border police being brought in from the West Bank. The UN’s Middle East peace envoy, Tor Wennesland, says they are “escalating towards a full-scale war” and the international community has urged both sides to end the escalation.

At febrile times like this, surely Mishal Husain is the best person for the BBC to deploy to calm matters?

The level of entitlement displayed by the likes of vine is an indicator of how they demand that the world is modelled only for their benefit .
The parked van may have no choice because of delivery –
On the bigger scale closed roads add to traffic pollution and time of travel – in my area -at least . Road rage also increases .
For the record I drive a car , ride a motor scooter , a push bike and a canoe …. When Vine gets knocked of his bike ( which I am sure he dreams of ) he will be doing a 13 part series for the BBC about it ….
Jez likely gunning for his own Musk hyper loop to convey him Botney style from his London residence to studio free from peons doing actual jobs Angela Rayner is not concerned with.
Confucius, him say: Lobbying by former leaders is not a problem that bothers the Arab world.
I recall hearing somewhere or other a theory that the fashion for wearing boots might be an indication that society was heading for war.
If true it’s a worry, since the Times frontpage this morning carries a fashion feature: ‘Best spring boots‘
The war drums are certainly beating again in the Holy Land. According to the habitually tortured timelines of our media: ‘Hamas unleashes broadside after Israel air strike‘ (Telegraph) – we know we’re reading editorialisation here since, as we understand it, actual broadsides went out with Admiral Nelson.
Leaving aside the conundrum of who did what first in response to whatever they did to whom…
As a Hollywood star might ask – what’s my motivation in this?
Well, the Palestinians, who never could quite bring themselves to compromise with Israel, have lately found themselves cut out of the peace deals between Israel and many of her more sensible and realistic neighbours. It’s known as the Abraham Accords and has been a breakthrough in part due to the advent of one Donald J Trump questioning some old assumptions and habits at the US State Office. And Obama’s former appeasement of Iran driving the Gulf States toward rapprochement with Israel.
Meanwhile, President Abbas, the one-time elected Palestinian boss man, now about 17 years into his 4 year Presidency, has cancelled elections again. Fair play to the chap, perhaps he saw Labour’s result in Hartlepool on the horizon and figured he was bound to lose to Hamas. What chance would be left for Palestine to join the EU if that happens? So a bit of argy-bargy will distract from those cancelled elections.
As for the evicted Arabs from that old quarter of Jerusalem (trade mark Jeremy Bowen, BBC) they’ve been squatting rent free since Jordan seized the district from the Jewish legal owners in 1947.
But who really wants to relitigate the ancient history of old conflicts? The Guardian apparenty, which gets top billing on the BBC’s online press round up: ‘Ten killed by army in 1971 found innocent‘
The Guardian also asks: ‘Can the arts ever be the same?‘ – they frame the question: ‘After covid‘ but it’s a fair question what with the intrusion of politics into even the most popular forms of mass entertainment.
BBC: ‘Brit Awards: Dua Lipa demands pay rise for nurses as she wins‘
Dua Lipa, you ask? Who is this model for our youngsters with her right-on social justice warrior opinions? See the frontpage of the Sun for your education this morning where she happily invites a saucy upskirt photograph: ‘Dual Lipa! She nets 2 Brits‘ – nets… that’s a tabloid reference to her stockings. (Fashion note – high heels rather than boots) I’ve not the foggiest idea what her music is like but she certainly knows what titillates her various audiences – flash the Sun readers a bit of stocking top, suspender and bare thigh and signal the BBC audience your virtue and love for the NHS.
Little Mix are back in the mix in the Mirror: ‘Brits back with a bump (or two) Tots of the pops. Pregnant Leigh-Anne & Perrie with Little Mix bandmate Jade‘ – as the cheeky schoolboy said to the heavily pregnant woman on the bus “I know what you’ve been doing”
Your daily dose of racism is in the ‘i’ newspaper: ‘My first experience of racism was aged 7. By Charlene White‘ – she is not of course a white person. But she is an ITV news reader.
‘For one day only, we’ve changed our iconic masthead!‘ (Daily Mirror & Daily Star & Daily Express – they’re all out of the same stable) – they’ve slighly altered their logos to resemble scratchcards to celebrate 30 years of the National Lottery. How very tasteful, he remarked, snobbishly.
Is it really 30 years? I guess we can trust the press with facts and numbers?
‘Cameron deluged Whitehall in Greensill lobbying bid, files show. Ex premier tried 56 times‘ (FT) – or on the otherhand: ‘As Britain was hit by first wav, former PM sent 47 messages in ministers and officials trying to get Treasury funding for firm that employed him‘ (‘i’)
Our media often seem very keen to worry us about things. Crisis this, crisis that. I now tend to worry when they seem keen to reassure us not to worry: ‘Fed and ECB play down concerns as global markets sell off‘ (FT)
‘Fears over inflation caused global stocks to plunge. Wall Street opened in the red, after steep loses in Europe. The FTSE 100 had its worst day in almost three months‘ (Times)
So many ignorant responses here. The terrible incident with George Floyd has shown clearly that there are many ignorant racists in this country and thanks to social media they have the platform to express their vile views.
That’s definitely one for the resident troll – just a reminder that it’s about a coloured criminal chap who died whilst high on drugs whilst resisting arrest for fraud. It happened in Londonistan in a country formerly known as England and nothing happened to the white plod who did it .
By the way – the monster in the video is the presenter who refuses to wear a poppy because it is ‘offensive ‘…
I think she is trying for the coloured female seat on toady or Wimmins winge hour (aren’t men awful?)
People didn’t know what Starmer stood for – Rayner
People “on the doorstep didn’t know what Keir Starmer stood for”, Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner has said after Labour’s poor local election results in England. The party took a battering losing the Hartlepool parliamentary by-election to the Conservatives and eight councils in England. But it had some success winning 11 out of 13 mayoral races in England and remaining as the largest party in Wales. However, the results raised concern within the party that it had not done enough to win back its traditional strongholds from the Tories.
Labour now had to “connect with voters we’ve lost”, Ms Rayner said, after she was locked in a dispute with Sir Keir over her role as campaign co-ordinator at the weekend. After “robust conversations” she was moved in a reshuffle and now shadows Michael Gove at the Cabinet Office. She also became Labour’s spokesperson for the future of work. Reflecting on Sir Keir’s time as Labour leader, Ms Rayner said it was “right that we came together” during the coronavirus pandemic but that now was the time for “a fundamental rethink” and “real change in our communities”.
***
Kudos to the sub for the ‘what is stood for’ on an irony basis, all things considered with Sir Kneel, Fick Kneel and Labour Kneel.
The Future of Woke surely is her calling, and green rooms across the land stand (see what I did there?) ready, draped with Palestinian flags to welcome her, Jez and Sultana with their messages of work for ‘communities’ and unelected leaders with BBC Sh*tStir Desk on speed dial.
People “on the doorstep didn’t know what Keir Starmer stood for”
What an admission that is! She was campaigns director, it was her responsibility to make sure that people knew what Labour stood for and if they didn’t then it is her fault and no one elses!
On the contrary, the people of Hartlepool are not stupid, as Angie Rayner seems to think. They do know what Sir Keir Starmer stands for, and what he kneels for, and it’s not them!
Labour is now the party of urban, left wing public sector employees and immigrants. That’s it. They sneer at the white working class, yet still expect them to vote for them. Well not now they don’t. Looks like Labour will have to import more voters.
Ian – wow – that must be a good gig ££££… they’ve even got that fruit hoop Dave Willets on it – he was an arch Tory who went ‘bad ‘ … must be some great jollies …
You have to be ‘invited’ to join the Trilateral Commission.
Mandelson and Miliband snr are former members.
Starmer first crops up on the membership list in 2018.
As of April this year they still had him listed as Shadow Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union.
Have started listening to toady again for the comedy . Today they had a nasal standup on call ‘Milliband junior ‘. His act involved using the words ‘learn’ ‘change ‘ and ‘connect ‘ a lot –
Which is what Labour has even doing in the 7 years since he was leader of their great majestic party. Robinson was heckling a bit but in fairness let Milliband ramble on until he started to run out of gags .
I was waiting for the one about the paki racist paedo and the 13 year old white girl but it didn’t come ….

9:30am R4 they just had to stop the programme
cos they started playing out the prog about the Oldham riots
instead of the one about Confucius, that’s in the schedule.
The Oldham riots prog should air at 11am
The BBC on the Web-site and R4’s TOADY were taking a Guardian view of the Queen’s Speech in Parliament yesterday. They passed on the Guardian’s view (one that they will no doubt promote in future) that 2million people would be disenfranchised by Her Majesty’s Government and their plans to introduce Voter ID for elections. The BBC claimed it would mean that homeless people cannot vote.
Er, I think, homeless people cannot vote anyway, especially if they are long-term homeless. I seem to recall that you need to be registered via the Local Authority at an address (even if you do not pay Council Tax) in a Constituency in order to vote.
George Eustice was the Tory sacrificial lump of mutton for an interview on this and he handled the BBC quite well, pointing out that the wild claim in the Guardian (and of the BBC) that 2 million people being unable to vote includes the elderly. George observed that statistics show that most elderly people vote Conservative anyway: why would the Government seek to disenfranchise those most likely to vote Conservative?
Nick Robinson, former BBC Political Editor, had no reply.
LL, eBay do like being enemies of their own business model, don’t they.
Funny thing, I was just thinking this morning about the Queen’s Speech and some of the things I would like to have seen included by our PM, the well-known spinner, ‘Lefty’ Johnson. Top of my list, after reform of the UK so-called ‘health system’ would be having a dedicated Cabinet Minister to really tackle consumer affairs and start to get after those who give shoddy customer service.
9:20am Switch on bingo.. Jane Garvey was banging on about skin colour.
Her guest is a fair skinned Indian woman, who by 22 was completely white, despite being almost completely dark brown until puberty. She’s got this genetic condition vitaligo where your skin loses its melanin.
Of course Garvey fished for racism
but the guest didn’t bite
in fact she mentioned that commonly Indians give her dirty looks when she’s with her Indian husband “they think this white girl has stolen one of theirs”
She did mention when she was with her Indian friends they could get into clubs and not get turned away.
The thing was Garvey didn’t mention physical attractiveness and the benefits that go with that. Of course she as an attractive woman never gets turned away from clubs.
Neither did the prog seem to tackle the issue that people like her who are unblemished since 22 are completely different from someone whose face looks like it’s suffered an acid attack, cos their skin colour pattern is in patches.
” she’s with her Indian husband “they think this white girl has stolen one of theirs”
Stolen. LOL. They probably do think that. Certainly the thought has crossed my mind seeing the number of lovely middle-class girls trailing around with their – mostly – ill treating black man.
In fact, at Aldgate today I saw a Kierra Knightly look-a-like waving in the fairest of ways that only the fairest of maidens could – and to my displeasure the animal to whom she shed her Shakespearean-like manner with was a street-dressed black man who looked like he had just stolen a moped and was on his way to sell weed to kids on the council estate.
Stereotypes are there for a bloody good reason. So is racism. A genetically developed strength that thrust this tiny island to the topest of the tops. So much so, that it was too easy – 95% of the world has been invaded by us – usually just the once is enough – and we decided to put our feet up and let the kids have a go – the Yanks and the Chinese photocopying Hong Kong countrywide.
I think middle-class girls think black man ‘cool’. Like I want a black baby form Wayne & Waynette SLob sketch. Whereas for the working class, immigrants were seen as a possible genetic boost by many a Waynetta – nice-ish looking foreigner well above the league they would get if a white man. Downside: Manners of an symbian, cultural skills as if dropped in from a society 1000 years behind.
And on occasion, and usually by white man’s grace – a few selected progress ot middle and upper – but not too many – must be a manageable level from them. Not blackman’s whiphand for them.
To all other contributors . One must expect the BBC
to support Islamic terrorism against Israel. They
have had a plethora of correspondents from Jeremy
Bowen , Orla Guerin etc who under direction from
BIG BROTHER from the diversity department of the BBC
and with their own acquiescence have let us know
that Israel is responsible for all the ills of the world.
BIG BROTHER’S instructions to all the BBC’S reporters
working in the majority Islamic world or in fact anywhere
is to cover up their atrocities. Get the slaughter of 86 schoolgirls
in Kabul ,off the front pages as soon as possible, is the order
of the day , so far as BIG BROTHER is concerned.
AS for the Communist Chinese party being responsible
or at the very least Machiavellian in the “germ” leak from
the Wuhan laboratory perpetuating the the third worse
genocide in recent time. The BBC’S attitude seems to be
“say no more, say know more.” But what do you really
expect. In reality the rest of the world is dead scared of what
China have done . And will do again. The Sars 2002 was the dress rehearsal.
The Covid 19 has been the premiere .What’s next? A run like “Wicked” or
even worse ” The Mouse Trap?” To be honest the CCP has
the rest of the world caught in a wicked
mouse trap. And we are scared to do anything about it.
Very sad and my sympathies with the parents of this poor lad, but confirming what Lockdown Sceptics have been saying for 14 months or so, there is more chance statistically of a healthy child dying from a lightning strike than from Covid-19.
Yet and thanks largely to the teaching unions, schools have been closed for months on end over the last year or so.
Here is yet another rather complex politico legal argument on why the hopeless incompetent cowardly useless Tories have done nothing with their latest supposed attack on cancel culture.
The Tories claim that the universities must uphold freedom of speech, but how can they do that in a country where freedom of speech has been made illegal?
Back in 2017 in the case of Matal Vs Tam the US Supreme Court unanamously decided that the concept of Hate speech is incompatible with the imerpative of the First Amendment – the Right to Freedom of Speech. This court included the famous leftist liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The UK has no law protecting freedom of speech save for a wooly unwritten belief it has which is not worth the paper it’s written on.
The UK no longer has freedom of speech, that is clear and obvious as attested by the cases of Miller Vs College of Policing.
This the begs the question of how is a University supposed to uphold something we no longer have?
How is a UK institution supposed to uphold and protect someones right to say something the infantile Britsh government has made illegal?
It is putting a university or other public body between a rock and a hard place. The cowardly useless incompetent Tories are telling bosses that they have to allow someone to say something which they might later be taken to court for on criminal charges for allowing someone to say something to which some notionally ‘oppressed’ group finds offensive.
The enormous legal problem here is that the cowardly useless incompetent Tories don’t even appear to have realised they destroyed free speech and you can’t then ask someone to uphold something which no longer exists!
By whom? What a sad state the UK has become when we are supposed to meekly accept without question that these political numpties are omnipotent over every tiny aspect of our lives!
Here`s something Labour can apologise about (happened a while ago , still )
Barbara Rosche the Labour Immigration minister went down to Dover to hand out leaflets to lorry drivers (workers) telling them they`ll be fined for every bogus asylum seeker that breaks into their vehicle . It wasnt liked but Barbara Rosche said
“I`m not here to please lorry drivers ” .
Later Jack Straw the Labour Home Secretary went down to Dover to shake hands with some invaders just found in the back of a lorry .
” it`s a well known fact that lorry drivers take folded money to bring these people in ” he lied , because if it was a well known fact it would be because lorry drivers en masse had been caught doing it .
The penalty for facilitating illegal entry into this country was ten years in prison , a fine and vehicles confiscated . No proof was found that lorry drivers were doing this so the £2000 pound fine was levied on victims of crime for – being victims .
So thats Labour — shake hands with criminals , cast a slur on workers and put all British workers interests below that of cosmic justice .
I`m recounted it as I remembered it . I`ve trawled the net but no its not always possible to find actual footage of events especially historical events .
Its the same when I try to find out about the Irish border problem ie: what ships are arriving into Northern Ireland and Eire .
Edit : your link says that Mr Straw shook the illegals hand .
The Barbara Roche leaflet thing is documented
Then there are loads of lefty sites complaining about Jack Straw taking a hard line on immigrants “He’s in with Murdoch” etc.
Thank you Stew .
I think most people especially the workers in places like Hartlepool will ignore the lefty sites .
Also most people especially low paid workers want immigration stopped not fines imposed on other workers .
@Nibor I think it’s that Straw shook the hand of ONE immigrant
“Mr Straw who, having climbed into the back of the lorry, reached out and shook the Kosovan’s hand”
It then goes onto Straw witnessing 8 immigrants being found in the back of another lorry
but no hand shaking.
The stowaway was one of 11 clandestine immigrants discovered on lorries during the Home Secretary’s visit to Dover yesterday, providing some visual confirmation for Mr Straw that he had been right to impose fines on truck drivers found with such human cargo.
The Home Secretary said some truckers were deliberately smuggling immigrants in exchange for “folding money”.
The Home Secretary said that most of the offenders were “foreign” drivers and said the new penalties were comparable to the fines imposed on airlines for carrying illegal immigrants.”
Then in 2014 Richard Littlejohn put some spin on it “And who can forget Labour’s then Home Secretary Jack Straw travelling to Dover to welcome foreign nationals climbing out of the back of lorries?”
Thanks again Stew . ONE immigrant — bogus asylum seeker – is enough .
And if “some” truckers were deliberately smuggling immigrants –bogus asylum seekers – for “folding money ” where was his evidence ?

Everyone gets scammed sometime or other
it’s a step by step process that they suck you into
The first step is 100% plausible
then at the end when you explain the whole story it sounds ridiculous.
If I spoof your bank’s phone number.. you think it’s your bank calling you
I tell you money is being stolen and that I will hang up and you must phone the fraudline/police
but I hold the line open
so although you think you are now getting through to the fraudline/police you are through to me or my mate
We “the police” carefully explain how you should put the money in the “safe” account and give you its number
End result – We haven’t taken any details at all from you at all
, but you have put the money into the “safe account” which we control
… and we quickly transfer it out through a chain and into our pockets
“Mandatory voter ID would dangerously undermine UK voter fraud”
Come on Digg wake up and realise this is just yet another Tory gesture to the right which means and will achieve nothing what so ever.
Voter fraud at polling station by ID, known as personation is miniscule, hardly worth bothering and the Tories know it.
Voter fraud is taking place in postal votes, and in bribery to vote a certain way.
All this will achieve is the banning of ordinary people from the democratic right to cast their vote at the polling station, more postal votes and therefore more fraud.
If it’s the Tories doing it you know something is dodgy. I don’t think there’s a single thing in this Queens speech which is effective worthwhile and will lead to a better Britain.
I understand that there are some Covid outbreak ‘hotspots’ – including Bolton. Andy Burnham has made a statement that this outbreak can be attributed to travel to and from…… India. hmmmm…. something else our migrant friends have ‘contributed’ to this country.
Toady has been pushing some diary thing where – on this day – you write about yourself and your life and then sent via the BBC to a national archive where it will be kept ‘anonymously ‘ ….
… I’m sure TV licencing will get a courtesy copy …

Just mentioned on the News, that in the last couple of days over 2000 migrants have landed on Lampadusa. Give it another couple of months and they will be rocking and rolling across another sea……. the Channel.
Utterly incomprehensible Brissles as to why the Italians are allowing illegal migrants from Lybia, landing on —-campidusa and not returning these individuals immediately, same with the UK, why are we even considering allowing illegal migrants to land on our shores no matter where they came from. Dump them straight back to France or wherever they came from originally. The UK has left the EU therefore we have no reason to accept anyone who is not legally entitled. Our present government we know is weak and has been so for a long time-we and they know full well as to why these migrants come here-simple just let it be known throughout the world that there will no social help, no benefits whatsoever to individuals who come to these shore illegally. Hundreds of charities provide £millions to countries throughout Africa, it is up to those countries to use that generosity-yes I know having worked in West Africa how rampant corruption is, nevertheless they will have to learn one way or another. Africa could if it took its finger out of you know where, provide the world with everything it needed for its people and beyond.
Almost 13,000 migrants have landed in Italy so far this year; three times more than the same period in 2020. And more than 500 have died – a four-year high.

County court judgement against Boris Johnson, record shows https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-57087274
Full article including a pointless list of things they might do to you and the worst picture of Boris they could find to match his utter disgrace over this £535 judgement.
And Boris is worth how many millions ?.
It seems that Boris is getting the same treatment from the Left they gave Trump. Try to make a mountain from any worm-cast they can find. Keep throwing mud and a little bit will stick each time.
The point with a CCJ is not necessarily that money is owed, but that someone is leading a chaotic life with little to no control over their life.
I speak as someone who regularly has to deal with bailiff calling at my door because there is another street with the same name which they often mistake for this one, and because the loon who owns the house next door is always having debt collectors looking for them
The sort of people who run into these problems are those who ignore their obligations, and responsibilities. What kind of person gets a parking ticket for £35 if paid within 14 days or a littering fine of £40 if paid in 14 days doesn’t pay it at all and then allows it to run into thousands of pounds before a court order is made against them.
It’s not as if there isn’t any communication, it’s constant and regular and has to be completely ignored by the defendant.
Someone here is owed a substantial amount of money – possibly a small trader and has not been paid forcing them to take the matter to court and still hasn’t been paid.
I agree the reporting might be petty and biased, but Boris really is a tosser for allowing this to happen regardless of how much he’s worth.
I speak as one who, over the years, has had debt collectors chasing me for money owed, in my name, to a company I had never used and two sets for money owed to companies I had never even heard of. Needless to say, they were all dismissed.
Listen . Can you hear that ? It’s the sound of a million shredders in health authorities and councils and government departments getting rid of anything remotely useful to a covid public inquiry (CPI?) as well as the sound of smashing hard drives …..
Here’s something you might not recall and hasn’t been in the press for a while:
When the Old Etonian crook Darius Guppy wanted to get a journalist beaten up, before he was arrested and jailed, he phoned his old chum Boris Johnson and asked him to get the journalist’s address. Johnson, famously, agreed to do so. This struck many as shocking, but it is entirely in keeping with a culture of people who were taught from an early age that they were special and above the law. We happen to have a recording of this conversation but, given how much Etonian crime and murder we know about, you have to wonder about how much they got away with. They can’t all be that incompetent, can they
More than 24 hours after Barnier’s bombshell call for France to halt immigration and for the EU to rethink their whole border policy, still zero interest from the lying BBC.
You’d think such a radical statement by a senior politician would be of interest, especially as he was the EU Brexit negotiator and may well be French President soon.
Which is why most papers are carrying the story, including that far-right rag, The Indie.
Tumbleweed on the BBC. Their ex idol has gone way off script, can’t have that; can’t have the masses hearing such heretical opinions. Heck, it might even spread to the UK.
He even says the unmentionable in polite society: The French politician claimed there were “links” between immigration and “terrorist networks that infiltrate migrational flows”.
Surely not. I though they were all doctors and engineers coming to help help us infidels from the goodness of their heart. Next he’ll be claiming they’re behind a lot of street crime and assaults on women.
While the woke, gullible BBC continues to give Megan the Manipulator all the sympathetic coverage she needs to pontificate her woke platitudes (see link below, if you really must), the truth about the entitled bully is leaking out. Far from being the poor-little-me victim she claims (and that everyone must believe or be called racist), it is she who was victimising staff.
Extracts from a paywalled article in the Times:
“It has been reported that up to a dozen former royal aides are “queueing up” to register complaints about the Duchess of Sussex. Buckingham Palace is now investigating allegations that 39-year-old Meghan, the mother of Archie and now pregnant with the couple’s second child, was an “outrageous bully” to her staff before she departed Britain last year…
“Half of the staff threatened to quit,” a former aide to one of the most senior members of the royal family claimed. Another Palace source claimed with uncharacteristic hyperbole that “the entire household was on the verge of quitting … it was drama, drama, drama with those two.”
…Harry was said to have shouted “What Meghan wants, Meghan gets.”
…stories of clashes between the Sussexes and staff multiplied.
One incident rang alarm bells about Meghan’s unattainably precise demands. A senior royal source claimed: “Soon after the engagement, Meghan hosted a shooting party at Sandringham for Harry’s friends. She ordered personally embroidered blankets for each of the guests, in red. When they arrived, they weren’t the right shade of red for Meghan and she went mental at her PA, Harry’s first PA was in situ when Meghan arrived and left within months.” Her next PA, Melissa Touabti, was alleged to have later left “traumatised” because of Meghan’s unreasonable behaviour…
In the run-up to the wedding, a senior royal source claimed that the Kingdom Choir, who performed Stand By Me during the service, did not have an easy time: “They had to send her dozens of arrangements. It was never right.”
…Even Harry and Meghan’s engagement interview, widely hailed as a joyous display of a couple head over heels in love, did not apparently meet with approval. “She complained it hadn’t gone well, that Mishal [Husain] wasn’t empathetic enough, wasn’t warm enough,” said the source…
“The family have tried to be welcoming,” a former aide insisted at the time. “All the staff and principals have genuinely tried to be kind, but she is genuinely unkind back, pitting Harry against them.”
…There is particular resentment at suggestions that because of Meghan’s African-American heritage, racism may have been a factor in the attitudes of royal household staff. “The diversity policy in the households is exemplary,” one senior source insisted. “Because of the Queen’s links with the Commonwealth, and her desire to represent all Britons, they have bent over backwards to be inclusive. It is absolutely wrong to say the Palace is institutionally racist. It really isn’t.”
…Meghan was also said to feel that no one tried to help her to adjust to the regimented requirements of royal and constitutional protocol. “Nothing could be further from the truth,” an aide said. Another Palace source insisted: “Everyone bent over backwards to accommodate her — now they feel they’re being totally shafted and collectively made to look like racists.” Another courtier revealed that the Queen’s then equerry, Lieutenant Colonel Nana Kofi Twumasi-Ankrah, the first black man appointed to the role — who himself may have once felt like an outsider finding his way — was deployed to help “mentor” Meghan”…

Ominous and highly dangerous but I expected this, it’s nothing more than a Globalists power grab.
Panel suggests WHO should have more power to stop pandemics
GENEVA (AP) — A panel of independent experts who reviewed the World Health Organization’s response to the coronavirus pandemic says the U.N. health agency should be granted “guaranteed rights of access” in countries to investigate emerging outbreaks, a contentious idea that would give it more powers and require member states to give up some of theirs.
I expect both the BBC and Biden be fully behind this!
The WHO is now already a virtually a World Power in it’s own right and is making a move for ever more power. Expect anytime soon for them to suggest they need a World armed force to help “Apply” their “recommendations”…. This has got Soros’s dirty fingerprints all over it!
Don’t expect it to be well received in China or Russia though!

“Michel Barnier calls for non-EU immigration into France to be suspended for up to five years”
What?? I thought only nasty racist far-right Little-Englander Brexiteers wanted to control immigration, not enlightened progressive EU Commissars – sorry, Commissioners.
Couldn’t be that he’s sensed which way the wind is blowing, now that he’s re-entering French politics – could it?
Reminds me of the saying by Gandhi, who is so beloved of lefties: First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.
I suspect as populism grows (despite virulent opposition from such as the BBC), we can expect more erstwhile liberal lefties to jump on various bandwagons.
“Michel Barnier has called for all non-European Union immigration into France to be banned for up to five years. The EU’s former Brexit negotiator said immigration was “not working”…”

It was clear for at least two decades, that importing large numbers of people who have no attachment to the republic – the secular (France) or the constitutional one(USA), will eventually lead to a civil war. How can they, as one has a ready made constitution, Sharia, and another which owes allegiance to money. Neither has any understanding of Western civilisation, its roots and founding principles.
Jihadis operating in France and in America, and excuses made for them and the ideology that guides and drives them. Recipe for disaster. Ordinary people fed to the war.
Of course we will be affected in a major way, and we will bear the greatest responsibility, till both republics come to their senses.

When it comes to politicians, there’s a lot of flexiblity in those terms as they usually consider that refugees, asylum seekers, economic migrants and criminals escaping justice or looking to pursue criminal careers elsewhere are all one and the same thing. We can also expect a big emphasis on so-called ‘climate refugees’ as we Build Back Better.

“Over the past five years, Jay Savory became more concerned as her father became immersed in far-left protest actions. Then she saw the picture of him in handcuffs outside a police station in Portland (Oregon) in November last year.
Duncan Savory declined to be interviewed by the BBC.
He is one of hundreds of BLM protesters who stormed the police station six months ago. We look at how many people have been arrested, and ask what punishment they might face.”
Story Two:
‘I’m ashamed my father was a Capitol Hill rioter’
“Over the past five years, Robyn Sweet became more concerned as her father became immersed in far-right conspiracy theories. Then she saw the picture of him in handcuffs inside the US Capitol building on 6 January.
Douglas Sweet declined to be interviewed by the BBC.
He is one of hundreds of pro-Trump protesters who stormed the US Capitol four months ago. We look at how many people have been arrested, and ask what punishment they might face.”

I caught the tail end of some Minister being interviewed on Toady just before the weather at 0757 over the issue of planned legislation to tighten up voting security. BBC trying desperately to pull the whole thing apart. It occurred to me that with no dishonest immigrants / Labour voters, there would likely be no need of, ‘tightening up’. New legislation? Well, no doubt designed with the dishonest in mind. But, but, but, in that knowledge, could the new legislation be claimed to be, ‘anti immigrant’ and therefore, ‘racist’?
“2.29 Police forces recorded more than ten cases in only five individual local
authority areas:
• 11 cases were recorded in relation to Northumberland
• 13 cases were recorded in relation to County Durham
• 14 cases were recorded in relation to Bradford
• 14 cases were recorded in relation to Cornwall
• 16 cases were recorded in relation to Tower Hamlets
2.30 Bradford and Tower Hamlets are both areas where we have previously identified a higher risk of allegations of electoral fraud, and where the respective Returning Officers and police forces have already taken steps to put in place additional actions to tackle electoral fraud which go further than the plans we would normally expect to see in areas with a lower risk of fraud
allegations.”

You have to dig into the article to discover Israel gave them an hour and a halfs warning to evacuate. The 130 (yes, ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY) rockets on the other hand were unguided missiles being fired indiscriminantly to try and kill totally innocent civilians in a city.

Israel-Palestinian conflict intensifies
Conflict between Israeli forces and Palestinian militants has intensified with Israel declaring a state of emergency in the central city of Lod. Rioting by Israeli Arabs has seen cars set alight and 12 people were reported injured in the clashes. Tension has been building for weeks and clashes have since escalated between Israel and Hamas – and so far at least 35 Palestinians, including 10 children, and five Israelis have been killed, health officials say.
Hundreds of missiles were fired at the Israeli city of Tel Aviv by Palestinian militants after an Israeli air strike demolished a tower block in the Gaza Strip yesterday. Israel’s military says it is targeting militants in Gaza in response to rocket attacks on Jerusalem and other areas. The conflict between the two has now stirred unrest among the Arab minority inside Israel, leading to protests. This led to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declaring a state of emergency, which has seen border police being brought in from the West Bank. The UN’s Middle East peace envoy, Tor Wennesland, says they are “escalating towards a full-scale war” and the international community has urged both sides to end the escalation.

I recall hearing somewhere or other a theory that the fashion for wearing boots might be an indication that society was heading for war.
If true it’s a worry, since the Times frontpage this morning carries a fashion feature: ‘Best spring boots‘
The war drums are certainly beating again in the Holy Land. According to the habitually tortured timelines of our media: ‘Hamas unleashes broadside after Israel air strike‘ (Telegraph) – we know we’re reading editorialisation here since, as we understand it, actual broadsides went out with Admiral Nelson.
Leaving aside the conundrum of who did what first in response to whatever they did to whom…
As a Hollywood star might ask – what’s my motivation in this?
Well, the Palestinians, who never could quite bring themselves to compromise with Israel, have lately found themselves cut out of the peace deals between Israel and many of her more sensible and realistic neighbours. It’s known as the Abraham Accords and has been a breakthrough in part due to the advent of one Donald J Trump questioning some old assumptions and habits at the US State Office. And Obama’s former appeasement of Iran driving the Gulf States toward rapprochement with Israel.
Meanwhile, President Abbas, the one-time elected Palestinian boss man, now about 17 years into his 4 year Presidency, has cancelled elections again. Fair play to the chap, perhaps he saw Labour’s result in Hartlepool on the horizon and figured he was bound to lose to Hamas. What chance would be left for Palestine to join the EU if that happens? So a bit of argy-bargy will distract from those cancelled elections.
As for the evicted Arabs from that old quarter of Jerusalem (trade mark Jeremy Bowen, BBC) they’ve been squatting rent free since Jordan seized the district from the Jewish legal owners in 1947.
But who really wants to relitigate the ancient history of old conflicts? The Guardian apparenty, which gets top billing on the BBC’s online press round up: ‘Ten killed by army in 1971 found innocent‘
The Guardian also asks: ‘Can the arts ever be the same?‘ – they frame the question: ‘After covid‘ but it’s a fair question what with the intrusion of politics into even the most popular forms of mass entertainment.
BBC: ‘Brit Awards: Dua Lipa demands pay rise for nurses as she wins‘
Dua Lipa, you ask? Who is this model for our youngsters with her right-on social justice warrior opinions?

(Fashion note – high heels rather than boots) I’ve not the foggiest idea what her music is like but she certainly knows what titillates her various audiences – flash the Sun readers a bit of stocking top, suspender and bare thigh and signal the BBC audience your virtue and love for the NHS.
Little Mix are back in the mix in the Mirror: ‘Brits back with a bump (or two) Tots of the pops. Pregnant Leigh-Anne & Perrie with Little Mix bandmate Jade‘ – as the cheeky schoolboy said to the heavily pregnant woman on the bus “I know what you’ve been doing”
Your daily dose of racism is in the ‘i’ newspaper: ‘My first experience of racism was aged 7. By Charlene White‘ – she is not of course a white person. But she is an ITV news reader.

People didn’t know what Starmer stood for – Rayner
People “on the doorstep didn’t know what Keir Starmer stood for”, Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner has said after Labour’s poor local election results in England. The party took a battering losing the Hartlepool parliamentary by-election to the Conservatives and eight councils in England. But it had some success winning 11 out of 13 mayoral races in England and remaining as the largest party in Wales. However, the results raised concern within the party that it had not done enough to win back its traditional strongholds from the Tories.
Labour now had to “connect with voters we’ve lost”, Ms Rayner said, after she was locked in a dispute with Sir Keir over her role as campaign co-ordinator at the weekend. After “robust conversations” she was moved in a reshuffle and now shadows Michael Gove at the Cabinet Office. She also became Labour’s spokesperson for the future of work. Reflecting on Sir Keir’s time as Labour leader, Ms Rayner said it was “right that we came together” during the coronavirus pandemic but that now was the time for “a fundamental rethink” and “real change in our communities”.

TOADY Watch #1 – shirley not?
The BBC on the Web-site and R4’s TOADY were taking a Guardian view of the Queen’s Speech in Parliament yesterday. They passed on the Guardian’s view (one that they will no doubt promote in future) that 2million people would be disenfranchised by Her Majesty’s Government and their plans to introduce Voter ID for elections. The BBC claimed it would mean that homeless people cannot vote.
Er, I think, homeless people cannot vote anyway, especially if they are long-term homeless. I seem to recall that you need to be registered via the Local Authority at an address (even if you do not pay Council Tax) in a Constituency in order to vote.
George Eustice was the Tory sacrificial lump of mutton for an interview on this and he handled the BBC quite well, pointing out that the wild claim in the Guardian (and of the BBC) that 2 million people being unable to vote includes the elderly. George observed that statistics show that most elderly people vote Conservative anyway: why would the Government seek to disenfranchise those most likely to vote Conservative?
Nick Robinson, former BBC Political Editor, had no reply.
I wonder why?

9:20am Switch on bingo.. Jane Garvey was banging on about skin colour.
Her guest is a fair skinned Indian woman, who by 22 was completely white, despite being almost completely dark brown until puberty. She’s got this genetic condition vitaligo where your skin loses its melanin.
Of course Garvey fished for racism
but the guest didn’t bite
in fact she mentioned that commonly Indians give her dirty looks when she’s with her Indian husband “they think this white girl has stolen one of theirs”
She did mention when she was with her Indian friends they could get into clubs and not get turned away.
The thing was Garvey didn’t mention physical attractiveness and the benefits that go with that. Of course she as an attractive woman never gets turned away from clubs.
Neither did the prog seem to tackle the issue that people like her who are unblemished since 22 are completely different from someone whose face looks like it’s suffered an acid attack, cos their skin colour pattern is in patches.

” she’s with her Indian husband “they think this white girl has stolen one of theirs”
Stolen. LOL. They probably do think that. Certainly the thought has crossed my mind seeing the number of lovely middle-class girls trailing around with their – mostly – ill treating black man.
In fact, at Aldgate today I saw a Kierra Knightly look-a-like waving in the fairest of ways that only the fairest of maidens could – and to my displeasure the animal to whom she shed her Shakespearean-like manner with was a street-dressed black man who looked like he had just stolen a moped and was on his way to sell weed to kids on the council estate.
Stereotypes are there for a bloody good reason. So is racism. A genetically developed strength that thrust this tiny island to the topest of the tops. So much so, that it was too easy – 95% of the world has been invaded by us – usually just the once is enough – and we decided to put our feet up and let the kids have a go – the Yanks and the Chinese photocopying Hong Kong countrywide.
I think middle-class girls think black man ‘cool’. Like I want a black baby form Wayne & Waynette SLob sketch. Whereas for the working class, immigrants were seen as a possible genetic boost by many a Waynetta – nice-ish looking foreigner well above the league they would get if a white man. Downside: Manners of an symbian, cultural skills as if dropped in from a society 1000 years behind.
And on occasion, and usually by white man’s grace – a few selected progress ot middle and upper – but not too many – must be a manageable level from them. Not blackman’s whiphand for them.
Oops – ranted a bit but feel better mow. Thanks

To all other contributors . One must expect the BBC
to support Islamic terrorism against Israel. They
have had a plethora of correspondents from Jeremy
Bowen , Orla Guerin etc who under direction from
BIG BROTHER from the diversity department of the BBC
and with their own acquiescence have let us know
that Israel is responsible for all the ills of the world.
BIG BROTHER’S instructions to all the BBC’S reporters
working in the majority Islamic world or in fact anywhere
is to cover up their atrocities. Get the slaughter of 86 schoolgirls
in Kabul ,off the front pages as soon as possible, is the order
of the day , so far as BIG BROTHER is concerned.
AS for the Communist Chinese party being responsible
or at the very least Machiavellian in the “germ” leak from
the Wuhan laboratory perpetuating the the third worse
genocide in recent time. The BBC’S attitude seems to be
“say no more, say know more.” But what do you really
expect. In reality the rest of the world is dead scared of what
China have done . And will do again. The Sars 2002 was the dress rehearsal.
The Covid 19 has been the premiere .What’s next? A run like “Wicked” or
even worse ” The Mouse Trap?” To be honest the CCP has
the rest of the world caught in a wicked
mouse trap. And we are scared to do anything about it.

Here is yet another rather complex politico legal argument on why the hopeless incompetent cowardly useless Tories have done nothing with their latest supposed attack on cancel culture.
The Tories claim that the universities must uphold freedom of speech, but how can they do that in a country where freedom of speech has been made illegal?
Back in 2017 in the case of Matal Vs Tam the US Supreme Court unanamously decided that the concept of Hate speech is incompatible with the imerpative of the First Amendment – the Right to Freedom of Speech. This court included the famous leftist liberal Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
The UK has no law protecting freedom of speech save for a wooly unwritten belief it has which is not worth the paper it’s written on.
The UK no longer has freedom of speech, that is clear and obvious as attested by the cases of Miller Vs College of Policing.
This the begs the question of how is a University supposed to uphold something we no longer have?
How is a UK institution supposed to uphold and protect someones right to say something the infantile Britsh government has made illegal?
It is putting a university or other public body between a rock and a hard place. The cowardly useless incompetent Tories are telling bosses that they have to allow someone to say something which they might later be taken to court for on criminal charges for allowing someone to say something to which some notionally ‘oppressed’ group finds offensive.
The enormous legal problem here is that the cowardly useless incompetent Tories don’t even appear to have realised they destroyed free speech and you can’t then ask someone to uphold something which no longer exists!

Here`s something Labour can apologise about (happened a while ago , still )
Barbara Rosche the Labour Immigration minister went down to Dover to hand out leaflets to lorry drivers (workers) telling them they`ll be fined for every bogus asylum seeker that breaks into their vehicle . It wasnt liked but Barbara Rosche said
“I`m not here to please lorry drivers ” .
Later Jack Straw the Labour Home Secretary went down to Dover to shake hands with some invaders just found in the back of a lorry .
” it`s a well known fact that lorry drivers take folded money to bring these people in ” he lied , because if it was a well known fact it would be because lorry drivers en masse had been caught doing it .
The penalty for facilitating illegal entry into this country was ten years in prison , a fine and vehicles confiscated . No proof was found that lorry drivers were doing this so the £2000 pound fine was levied on victims of crime for – being victims .
So thats Labour — shake hands with criminals , cast a slur on workers and put all British workers interests below that of cosmic justice .

“Mr Straw who, having climbed into the back of the lorry, reached out and shook the Kosovan’s hand”
It then goes onto Straw witnessing 8 immigrants being found in the back of another lorry
but no hand shaking.
The stowaway was one of 11 clandestine immigrants discovered on lorries during the Home Secretary’s visit to Dover yesterday, providing some visual confirmation for Mr Straw that he had been right to impose fines on truck drivers found with such human cargo.
The Home Secretary said some truckers were deliberately smuggling immigrants in exchange for “folding money”.
The Home Secretary said that most of the offenders were “foreign” drivers and said the new penalties were comparable to the fines imposed on airlines for carrying illegal immigrants.”
Then in 2014 Richard Littlejohn put some spin on it
“And who can forget Labour’s then Home Secretary Jack Straw travelling to Dover to welcome foreign nationals climbing out of the back of lorries?”

Everyone gets scammed sometime or other
it’s a step by step process that they suck you into
The first step is 100% plausible
then at the end when you explain the whole story it sounds ridiculous.
If I spoof your bank’s phone number.. you think it’s your bank calling you
I tell you money is being stolen and that I will hang up and you must phone the fraudline/police
but I hold the line open
so although you think you are now getting through to the fraudline/police you are through to me or my mate
We “the police” carefully explain how you should put the money in the “safe” account and give you its number
End result – We haven’t taken any details at all from you at all
, but you have put the money into the “safe account” which we control
… and we quickly transfer it out through a chain and into our pockets

“Mandatory voter ID would dangerously undermine UK voter fraud”
Come on Digg wake up and realise this is just yet another Tory gesture to the right which means and will achieve nothing what so ever.
Voter fraud at polling station by ID, known as personation is miniscule, hardly worth bothering and the Tories know it.
Voter fraud is taking place in postal votes, and in bribery to vote a certain way.
All this will achieve is the banning of ordinary people from the democratic right to cast their vote at the polling station, more postal votes and therefore more fraud.
If it’s the Tories doing it you know something is dodgy. I don’t think there’s a single thing in this Queens speech which is effective worthwhile and will lead to a better Britain.

Our present government we know is weak and has been so for a long time-we and they know full well as to why these migrants come here-simple just let it be known throughout the world that there will no social help, no benefits whatsoever to individuals who come to these shore illegally. Hundreds of charities provide £millions to countries throughout Africa, it is up to those countries to use that generosity-yes I know having worked in West Africa how rampant corruption is, nevertheless they will have to learn one way or another. Africa could if it took its finger out of you know where, provide the world with everything it needed for its people and beyond.

Almost 13,000 migrants have landed in Italy so far this year; three times more than the same period in 2020. And more than 500 have died – a four-year high.

There is a potential solution. Wait until the Gazans start arriving.

County court judgement against Boris Johnson, record shows
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-57087274
Full article including a pointless list of things they might do to you and the worst picture of Boris they could find to match his utter disgrace over this £535 judgement.
And Boris is worth how many millions ?.
It seems that Boris is getting the same treatment from the Left they gave Trump. Try to make a mountain from any worm-cast they can find. Keep throwing mud and a little bit will stick each time.

The point with a CCJ is not necessarily that money is owed, but that someone is leading a chaotic life with little to no control over their life.
I speak as someone who regularly has to deal with bailiff calling at my door because there is another street with the same name which they often mistake for this one, and because the loon who owns the house next door is always having debt collectors looking for them
The sort of people who run into these problems are those who ignore their obligations, and responsibilities. What kind of person gets a parking ticket for £35 if paid within 14 days or a littering fine of £40 if paid in 14 days doesn’t pay it at all and then allows it to run into thousands of pounds before a court order is made against them.
It’s not as if there isn’t any communication, it’s constant and regular and has to be completely ignored by the defendant.
Someone here is owed a substantial amount of money – possibly a small trader and has not been paid forcing them to take the matter to court and still hasn’t been paid.
I agree the reporting might be petty and biased, but Boris really is a tosser for allowing this to happen regardless of how much he’s worth.

I speak as one who, over the years, has had debt collectors chasing me for money owed, in my name, to a company I had never used and two sets for money owed to companies I had never even heard of. Needless to say, they were all dismissed.

Here’s something you might not recall and hasn’t been in the press for a while:
When the Old Etonian crook Darius Guppy wanted to get a journalist beaten up, before he was arrested and jailed, he phoned his old chum Boris Johnson and asked him to get the journalist’s address. Johnson, famously, agreed to do so. This struck many as shocking, but it is entirely in keeping with a culture of people who were taught from an early age that they were special and above the law. We happen to have a recording of this conversation but, given how much Etonian crime and murder we know about, you have to wonder about how much they got away with. They can’t all be that incompetent, can they

More than 24 hours after Barnier’s bombshell call for France to halt immigration and for the EU to rethink their whole border policy, still zero interest from the lying BBC.
You’d think such a radical statement by a senior politician would be of interest, especially as he was the EU Brexit negotiator and may well be French President soon.
Which is why most papers are carrying the story, including that far-right rag, The Indie.
Tumbleweed on the BBC. Their ex idol has gone way off script, can’t have that; can’t have the masses hearing such heretical opinions. Heck, it might even spread to the UK.
He even says the unmentionable in polite society: The French politician claimed there were “links” between immigration and “terrorist networks that infiltrate migrational flows”.
Surely not. I though they were all doctors and engineers coming to help help us infidels from the goodness of their heart. Next he’ll be claiming they’re behind a lot of street crime and assaults on women.

While the woke, gullible BBC continues to give Megan the Manipulator all the sympathetic coverage she needs to pontificate her woke platitudes (see link below, if you really must), the truth about the entitled bully is leaking out. Far from being the poor-little-me victim she claims (and that everyone must believe or be called racist), it is she who was victimising staff.
Extracts from a paywalled article in the Times:
“It has been reported that up to a dozen former royal aides are “queueing up” to register complaints about the Duchess of Sussex. Buckingham Palace is now investigating allegations that 39-year-old Meghan, the mother of Archie and now pregnant with the couple’s second child, was an “outrageous bully” to her staff before she departed Britain last year…
“Half of the staff threatened to quit,” a former aide to one of the most senior members of the royal family claimed. Another Palace source claimed with uncharacteristic hyperbole that “the entire household was on the verge of quitting … it was drama, drama, drama with those two.”
…Harry was said to have shouted “What Meghan wants, Meghan gets.”
…stories of clashes between the Sussexes and staff multiplied.
One incident rang alarm bells about Meghan’s unattainably precise demands. A senior royal source claimed: “Soon after the engagement, Meghan hosted a shooting party at Sandringham for Harry’s friends. She ordered personally embroidered blankets for each of the guests, in red. When they arrived, they weren’t the right shade of red for Meghan and she went mental at her PA, Harry’s first PA was in situ when Meghan arrived and left within months.” Her next PA, Melissa Touabti, was alleged to have later left “traumatised” because of Meghan’s unreasonable behaviour…
In the run-up to the wedding, a senior royal source claimed that the Kingdom Choir, who performed Stand By Me during the service, did not have an easy time: “They had to send her dozens of arrangements. It was never right.”
…Even Harry and Meghan’s engagement interview, widely hailed as a joyous display of a couple head over heels in love, did not apparently meet with approval. “She complained it hadn’t gone well, that Mishal [Husain] wasn’t empathetic enough, wasn’t warm enough,” said the source…
“The family have tried to be welcoming,” a former aide insisted at the time. “All the staff and principals have genuinely tried to be kind, but she is genuinely unkind back, pitting Harry against them.”
…There is particular resentment at suggestions that because of Meghan’s African-American heritage, racism may have been a factor in the attitudes of royal household staff. “The diversity policy in the households is exemplary,” one senior source insisted. “Because of the Queen’s links with the Commonwealth, and her desire to represent all Britons, they have bent over backwards to be inclusive. It is absolutely wrong to say the Palace is institutionally racist. It really isn’t.”
…Meghan was also said to feel that no one tried to help her to adjust to the regimented requirements of royal and constitutional protocol. “Nothing could be further from the truth,” an aide said. Another Palace source insisted: “Everyone bent over backwards to accommodate her — now they feel they’re being totally shafted and collectively made to look like racists.” Another courtier revealed that the Queen’s then equerry, Lieutenant Colonel Nana Kofi Twumasi-Ankrah, the first black man appointed to the role — who himself may have once felt like an outsider finding his way — was deployed to help “mentor” Meghan”…
You get the picture.

LBC helpfully brought out someone from SOAS, School of Oriental and African Studies, to help us understand how all the problems in the Middle east are caused by the evil Jews and the malevolent Americans. Rocket firing, knifing Palastinians are 100% victims.
Only a fool would come down on one side or the other in this conflict and LBC found him.
Anyone know if LBC brought on an adult to offer a balanced view of the conflict?

Panel suggests WHO should have more power to stop pandemics
GENEVA (AP) — A panel of independent experts who reviewed the World Health Organization’s response to the coronavirus pandemic says the U.N. health agency should be granted “guaranteed rights of access” in countries to investigate emerging outbreaks, a contentious idea that would give it more powers and require member states to give up some of theirs.

I expect both the BBC and Biden be fully behind this!
The WHO is now already a virtually a World Power in it’s own right and is making a move for ever more power. Expect anytime soon for them to suggest they need a World armed force to help “Apply” their “recommendations”…. This has got Soros’s dirty fingerprints all over it!
Don’t expect it to be well received in China or Russia though!

You are joking yes? China is virtually controlling the WHO through puppet Communist leader Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus ex of Ethiopia.
Might not be well received in Russia but the idea porobably originated in the CCP !
