Less than a week before the BBC gets some new competition – the first in a very long time . How will it react ? The usual arrogant superiority that comes with guaranteed taxpayers ‘ money ? Or will we see a little less ‘woke ‘? It certainly couldn’t get more woke could it ?

Does anyone know if any white people won any awards at the Black Asian Film and Television Awards this evening??
The BBC seem delighted in the results, so I’m making an educated guess the answer is either no, not many, or not remotely near the proportion appropriate for the general population.
Apparently Channel 5’s Vets in the Country received more viewers than ‘their’ version of Anne Boleyn. By the same token, I wonder if the weather forecast received a larger audience than this year’s BAFTAs on the Beeb.

As its is becoming clear, covid 19 was deliberately weaponised to take down Donald Trump, as he did not believe in the fraud AGW and Climate Change.
Without America, there could be no concerted plan to global government via taxation of fossil fuels.
I sincerely hope that our government was not involved in the covid-19 affair.
The BBC thinks that the Fauci emails is just a matter of whether one supports Trump or not, ‘Why are people talking about Dr Anthony Fauci’s emails?’.
Meanwhile over in Australia Sky News has continued to do a proper job. See this interview at 9 minutes 52 seconds for this damning statement from Fauci:
Effectively he admits contracting out viral research to China using the dubious moral argument that ‘Yellow Lives Don’t Matter”.
Trump was right. Fauci is part of ‘the swamp’.

I was foolish enough to think that I could take part in the BBC HYS tonight re the England match. There has been much discussion around taking the knee. Most posts on this subject have been anti, that is until some trigger happy mod deleted most of them. The pro posts, of course, remain, especially those shouting RACIST.
My own post was deleted for no reason other than censorship and bias –
[QUOTE]The fans have always supported anti-racism initiatives in football. The players, the FA, and the BBC need to ask themselves what’s changed.
It doesn’t matter how many times the players say taking the knee is nothing to do with the Black Lives Matter organisation, many fans will not agree. The gesture is seen as being synonymous with BLM org and hence hands them inappropriate, political publicity.[ENDQUOTE]
At the time of deletion my comment was receiving a lot of upvotes. I guess I hit a nerve.
Funnily enough I noticed the news of Ollie Robinson, the now ex England cricketer has been cancelled on the news page invited comments. Within minutes,there were 800; now I see all the comments have disappeared. Something we said…?

Not the BBC, but Pride Month. (Although it could hardly be argued that the BBC does not cover it excessively.)
This fellow posits that corporations that support ‘Pride’ are not virtue signalling as such, but rather paying homage to The Party in the new fascism. . . also, conservatives don’t boycott.
The Tory Government assisted by Al Beeb are wrecking our economy, nation and culture. The businessmen and industrialists of Great Britain need to take control of the nation before its too late.
It would be catastrophic if it happened to the rest of our electricity generation – so why aren’t the BBC covering it?

Speakers Corner :Hatun Tash, the anti-Muslim speaker was surrounded by Muslim crowd threatening her
“If, as has been suggested, Hatun was removed from Speakers’ Corner this time as a means of protecting her from violence there would have been no need for her to be *detained overnight*
and those threatening her would have been detained and questioned instead”
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/sharia-law-enforced-by-british-police/
This happened on 23 May.
Video of the arrest. Only 6.5 mins so worth watching in full.
The police are polite to the aggressive Muslim mob and none of them are arrested.
And so the first stones are laid to eventual Civil Strife. Matters cannot continue as they are-do we need a General Election?
The police are polite to muslims because they are afraid of them. They know that muslims are willing to kill cops if need be, and they do not fear the consequences. Violence, and the threat of violence, work.
This lonely Christian women was not alone as she had Christ with her.
The police are a disgrace. Their job is to protect every speaker, specially the lone voice. Instead they caved to the mob, and worse are trying to justify it.

“Foreign aid: PM faces pre-G7 backbench bid to reverse cut”
These MPs forget that we are heavily in debt , the poor of this country are facing price rises , housing shortages etc, while most of the nation’s tax payers are calling for an end to foreign aid. It’s our money they are throwing away.
It’s one of those days where BBC News is best avoided completely – scenes of sobbing MPs high so high with their moral superiority about overseas tax give aways – poor little Mohammed won’t have any water – or a charger for his iPhone .
How can the government be so nasty ? After all we are the 4/5/6th richest country in the universe .

Government ‘loses’- nasty tories
This one will show that the last election didn’t completely flush the turds away – wait for the cistern to refill to flush them away again …

If Mr Brown is so obviously concerned Guest Who, then he should give half his income and the same for all MP’s -then ship them over to Africa for starters to see first hand where this aid ens up and with the corruption of those that control the aid. These people make me sick they have absolutely no idea how they are seen by those in receipt of the aid-stupid’ is one word. Private donations as well as those from a number of charities runs into £millions, no contribution necessary from the UK-but we can’t be seen by the world not to make a contribution that we most definitely cannot afford-such hypocrisy.
The law of Scrobs applies here. Like with the BBC, believe the opposite of what is spouted, especially from the one man who was an utter failure as chancellor, and even worse as PM.
He was responsible for the most chaotic disaster in finance this country has ever had to face. No wonder Blair handed him the ‘job’, and went on to use his contacts to make a personal fortune.
Says the man who sold our gold reserves at $250 an ounce.
Rob
Please dont disparage the greatest chancellor the world has seen. By his actions on gold alone, he freed thousands of poor City and Wall street workers from grinding poverty.
We don’t have any Aid money to give
… instead the freespending Tories *borrow* money and give it away
So why don’t the African countries cut out the middle man and *borrow* directly ?
And when we do give money it’s tied to the condition that it is spent on buying products/services from British firms that are special friends with Labour/Tories.
Because international lenders know they will never be paid back by Africans. So the UK government borrows for them.
He should keep it.
And Marianna could advise on self promo.

1985 ….
Ahmadis suffer vicious persecution around the world. The main source of fuel for that persecution is in Pakistan, but what happens in Pakistan does not stay in Pakistan.
I know that from my experience in the Yorkshire market town of Batley. In August 1985, when I was 11 years old, my parents organised an inter-faith meeting in the town hall. It was interrupted and disturbed when, according to West Yorkshire police, more than 1,000 extremists, led by Pakistani hate preachers funded by the Pakistani state, were bused in from around the country. The mob brutally attacked my English mother and my father, a dermatologist; my eldest brother and I; and a Welsh Ahmadi schoolteacher who was with us. My first cousin, a GP, was by chance driving through the market town that day. He saw the mob and saw his family and friends being attacked, so he stopped. He was recognised, pulled from his vehicle and savagely beaten up.

And where exactly was the Personnel Department at the Palace supposed to get their ethnics from before the 60s ? Those from Windrush who settled in London, were not likely to have the skills for the jobs available, and those from India and Asia were routed to Lancashire and Yorkshire to work in the cotton and woollen mills – which doesn’t exactly prepare you for life at the Palace.

M. Wrong Shyster keeps the Springster fires burning.
The question that is surfacing is was it worth vaccinating billions of people to take out Donald Trump, with an untested vaccine.
Prominent and real scientists have warned that vaccines against CV19 could prove more deadly then the flu itself. One such is Prof Bhakti. He is a brilliant man, and for the first time shows on video, why and how the vaccine is deadly But as he opposes vaccines, his voice has been removed by Big Tech. The removal is also very insiduous. You can see him talking but no sound. He has been literally silenced.
A scientist’s voice should never be silenced, for all it shows is that evil powers are afraid that their strategy, whatever it is, will fall apart. This is no different to the Vatican silencing Galileo.
Big Tech says it is removing misinformation. Prof Bhakti far from misinformation. He is the voice of a very intelligent, learned and respected figure in microbiology.
According to the censors, he has been “debunked”. By whom and how? No answers. They just use power words like “debunked”.
Big Tech are now the silencers of scientists, and book burners of the 21st century.
The red beanie is very Anita Anand.
Has it made a difference to the slavery going on now in Africa where children are used to mine minerals for the batteries used in cars and phones or the kids in the Far East sweatshops making fancy trainers for those pulling the statues down ?
Woke is a Joke . Our PM is a woke joke. This nation is in need of strong leadership.
Of course you are 100% right taffman-I have been saying the same for a long time. The Arabs were the great slave traders aided by the indigenous Black people in Africa-they sold their own people into slavery. BUT let us not forget as so many do, that once we white people were also ensalved for two thousand years-the Romans, the Viking/Danes, the Normans to name a few and then later in our history there were Plantation ships sailing out from the UK with white slaves, to be sold in USA Baltimore. So much, such history swept under the carpet so as to allow the Black slave trade operation/ a couple of centuries to capture the lime light-the wood is so rotten with envy and maliciousness against white people-it is now quite definitely racism against White people. Trouble I view just around the corner.

Our Waitrose has about 6 ft of shelving, four shelves high, with Walkers crap.
It’s a lovely stroll past them to pick from the shelves where proper, well-made snacks are sold!
I enjoy those few seconds every time I visit the place.
Scrob – I highly recommend Pipers crisps (from Sainsburys), bit more expensive but the best crunchy crisp I’ve ever had.
Thanks, Brissles!
Our nearest Sainsbury’s is in Hastings, but we decided not to shop there because they told everyone that if we didn’t like their woke antics, we were welcome to shop elsewhere – so we do!
We’re lucky, because we have both a Tesco and a Waitrose a short ride away, so can get the basics cheaply at the former, and the pate de foie gras tinctured Beaujolais Nouveau, 1976, at the other place!
At a pinch, I can do all our shopping on my electric bike, which is why I’m so skinny (chubby), but it does save the planet…
BLM site removes page on ‘nuclear family structure’ amid NFL vet’s criticism

Covid vaccine badges for UK online daters
Outgoing, bubbly, loves an adventure? Many people have an idea of what they would love in a partner and now Covid vaccine status will form part of profiles on some dating apps. The latest drive by the government to support the vaccination programme will see UK online daters being able to choose to display a badge on their profiles to show if they have had the jab or are supportive of it. A recent YouGov poll of nearly 5,000 UK adults found only 28% of those who responded said they would not date someone unvaccinated, with 2% saying they would not date someone who had received the jab. Tinder, Match, Hinge, Bumble, Badoo, Plenty of Fish, OurTime and Muzmatch have all signed up – but there will be no way of verifying whether the status is genuine.

Let’s face it – if it was a Chinese virus funded by America – there will be no ‘justice ‘ or solid proof . Look squirrels .
It’s a bit more nuanced than that really – if I’m reading right it rather looks like the Chinese Communist Party simply availed themselves of poisonous US federal bureaucrats some of whom were intent on conducting this work away from scrutiny and especially scrutiny from DJT.
If America did “P45s and pensionectomy” awards it would seem that here’s a case where they might be usefully handed out.
Any squirrels harmed in the process would be acceptable collateral damage.
With Donald Trump in the White House, the Great Reset to Global government could not take place. Climate Change was also on hold till Donald Trump was cheated out of office. Thankfully, Trump’s departure from the WH, Climate Change can now start again.
Re the BAFTAs, pity the dilemma of the white acting profession. With the majority of the juicy parts going to the minority BAMEs they are left with limited opportunities, yet they cannot complain else they compromise their “wokeness” in the eyes of their contemporaries and employers further reducing work prospects. Shame/sarc.
Maybe that’s what emojis are for…..or can one be blacklisted for an inappropriate emoji?
I would imagine its the same for the modelling industry. All mags (and tv ads) now carry an inordinate amount of ethnic models – and it must be said – far more Eastern Europeans, than any home grown white model.
Here is a message to Al Beeb and our Home Secretary……………..
National Security comes before the ECHR.
We left Europe and should have left the ECHR also. They do more harm than good for the people of Britain.
Children are being used as a ‘shoehorn’ by despicable parents to get into the UK illegally . I also understand they are being used as ‘human shields’ . We have a woke government that just stands and watches .

Bafta TV Awards honour multi-talented Michaela Coel for I May Destroy You
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-57331430
14 photos in the article (some of the same people multiple times). 11 are black and 3 are white.
Are you being serious BBC? Why did you include so many white faces spoiling the fake achievements of blacks on TV?
“Ok, the whole diversity narrative is going too far and taking us with it, who do we get in?”
“I have a cunning plan”.
I’d rather have an egg banjo.
With tomato sauce !
I’m wonder how many of the luvvies realise how this has absolutely trashed any shreds of value the BAFTA awards had left.
If those who won had any sense of honour, they would refuse it as the insult it is. Both against the whites who never stood a chance and the knowledge they got it because of their skin colour.
But showbusiness people aren’t that deep. They are shallow, attention seeking narcissists who would sell their own kids to get an award.
Viewing figures ?
Everything would be just fine if only those coloured people living in the UK and who have enjoyed so much that the nation has provided them with, would go back to where their ancestors originally came from. Those nations desperately need their expertise they have learnt from the White peoples inventions in all areas of civilisation.
TOADY Watch #1 – oh joy, scinitillating deep joy, cummus out of a turnic not thoucus before
The OFF Switch while Gordon Brown the well known former Prime Minister is talking. I did wait until the end of his stream of consciousness interview with Mishal. Wanted to hear what he had to say. Poor Mishal found it impossible to edge a word in for a get-away. It was straight out of the famous Thatcher impersonation by Mike Yarwood “Don’t talk to me while I’m interrupting you.” Was that Mike Yarwood? Can’t remember.
Gordon Brown, who famously aided and abetted Tony Blair and the Labour Party in bankrupting the UK in the period 1997-2010 is back to give away more UK taxpayer money.
I’m happy to give my money away, but I do resent it more than slightly when we have homeless and hungry people in the UK that our politicians and ex-politicians could help, but instead give away tax money that could be spent housing the UK’s homeless and feeding the UK’s hungry.
Gullible Gordon believes that if Britain hands out more £billions to vaccinate the world, the Gulf States and Russia and China will join with us and pay their share. Oh yeah? “Nobody is safe until everyone is safe.” intones Sinister Gordon, just like a mafia Don.
‘Little by little, information slips out’ on the BBC and one interesting little fact escaped from Gordon Brown: while he works at re-bankrupting Britain he talks to Sir Edward Troup.
May have been Janet Brown ‘doing’ Margaret Thatcher. Thanks DuckDuckGo.
Sickening to see the BBC news running the D Day memorial thingy. The blatant attempt to steal the narrative with their stupid red sofa, pet veteran and family and BBC logos on everything made my stomach turn.
Especially as we are all well aware that they really would have liked WW2 to turn out somewhat differently.
Yesterday I saw a clip of Naga Munchetty thanking an elderly war veteran. It boiled my pee as it wasn’t long ago she was laughing at a Tory MP displaying the British flag.
“Ok, the ME is calming down and needs stirring back up; who do we get in?”
“I have a cunning plan”.
The word ‘neutral ‘ doesn’t really come to mind with this piece does it ? I suppose his ego took over any objectivity long ago …
“Ok, the US coverage is looking so skewed it is embarrassing; who do we get in to show how impartial we are?”
“I have a cunning plan”.

Twitter gets all high and mighty about truth and offence
yet most libmob tweeted that fake-narrative about Trump’s trousers as if it were true.
I don’t know how many used video or stills that had been doctored
or merely video that looked blurred due to poor resolution/lighting.
Actually Brandon’s video does look doctored to me.
Though Snopes chooses not to mention that.
The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln
retweeted it with
“#TrumpIsNotWell”
… to two and a half million followers
How can left/libs have any credibility ?
I checked maybe the clip is not doctored but as I said when Trump steps away from the middle of the stage the lighting is bad.
The person who posted the original clip might have had doubt at first but checking the rest of the video would have seen Trump’s fly.
That they didn’t mention that seems like deception.

The young, the old and the avant-garde
We know that our governing authorities – surprisingly for us and surprising themselves with our quiet aquiescence – chose to borrow the innovative concept of lockdowns for the healthy from Communist China – just as the Chinese shared their home grown virus with us.
Now we learn our government has taken the Chinese Social Credit system and added a new decadent sexy western twist: ‘Dating app vaccine bonuses for under 30s‘ (Guardian) – just to be clear, this isn’t April Fools Day and the habitually po-faced Guardian wouldn’t be likely to joke about covid matters.
‘First came the idea of making Covid vaccinations mandatory to go to the pub, while Israel offered free pizza and beer with each shot‘ – one could add to that list of incentives: ‘Get a vaccine, win $1m: Ohio offers lottery to beat vaccine hesitancy‘ – I am surprised here in the UK our NHS haven’t offered for a prize the plebian Willy Wonkerish golden ticket that is the corner shop scratch card. Some incentives are rather nation specific and wouldn’t translate so well: ‘Get the vax, win a shotgun: US states get creative to encourage vaccination‘
Well, we’ve heard the phrase shotgun marriage – how about a shotgun jab? By the way, I’ve always been somewhat confused by the saying shotgun wedding, never really sure whether it referred to the haste caused by pregnancy or as I’d prefer to visualise it – the fact the groom was encouraged to attend the ceremony, by the bride’s relatives, via the employment of firearms.
At least it’s not quite come to that in terms of government incentives to get vaccinated… yet.
Seems State gentle nudge policies, as concocted by those mysterious boffins concealed behind closed doors deep within the civil service, experts in herd psychology, have hit upon our collective libidos as the most potent point of sensitivity to governmental messaging.
Just as the puritanical Mayor Khan banned sexy bill board advertising in London, so conversely Whitehall feels no shame in their Mad Men-esque route one sex sells ad campaign.
‘Now UK officials have hit on what they hope is an even more persuasive reason for young people to get their jab – more chance of getting at date‘ – giving, I guess, a whole new meaning to the familiar phrase – have you taken precautions?
‘The Department of Health…‘ – George Orwell’s 1984 Ministries couldn’t have put it better – ‘…has teamed up with…‘ – jumped into bed with? ‘…a number of popular dating apps to encourage take-up of the programme‘ – gotta get with the programme. They do say this ominous American-sounding phrase may have originated in the early 1980s with members of addiction recovery groups to encourage new members to stick to the recovery plan.
You’ve gotta admire the names of these dating apps. What will far future historians make of the long litany of our euphemistic computer hook up network monikas? Might they perhaps read them in awe in the manner of egyptologists deciphering long-lost hieroglyphic incantations – half suspecting the ancient magic words and spells to somehow retain the power to manifest?
‘Users of Tinder, Match, Hinge, Bumble, Badoo, Plenty of Fish, Our Time and Muzmatch will enjoy a series of benefits…‘
Jonathan Meades, in his excellent documentary series (which gave a hint of what inspired TV could but so often fails to do) Off Kilter – The Football Pools Towns employed our collective remembrance of the ritual Saturday evening TV recital of the Scots football league as key and road map to his exploration of post-millenial Scotland… Dundee, Hamilton Academical, Airdrieonians, Arbroath, Cowdenbeath, St Johnstone, Stenhousemuir… you get the idea.
What’s in a name? ‘Hello Lilibet. Sussexes name their baby after the Queen and Diana‘ (Guardian)
From the very youngest to the very eldest in our fast evolving society: ‘D-Day veterans reliving the moment as they arrived at Portmouth Historic Dockyard to mark the 77th anniversary of the landings‘ (Times) – well, I guess a trip to Normandy was out of the question. UK Government covid travel restrictions doing what even the Nazi Atlantic Wall couldn’t achieve in keeping our boys off the European beaches. Insert here snarky reference to the ease with which boatloads of third world commandos have been infliltrating our British defences with an ease Hitler’s Operation Sea Lion never envisaged.
Speaking of the apparent failure to ever get over past conflicts – the Times even now still can’t accept their Remainer Brexit defeat.

As I’ve had to look at your BBC news and use other sources to determine that your news is not news but selective editorial opinion I’d like to request that I have a refund for the last 4 years plus get the BBC free from now on.
Please let me know how I can go about this as I am willing to create a full list of articles that I’ve had to investigate plus time taken for me to check your fact checker whilst realising that the BBC intentionally removes news rather than incorrectly report on it, uses images to sway opinion or misleads with the main titles hoping no one reads the full article.

BTW only 50 commercial flights from Faro Portugal to the UK Sunday – so that’s 50 x 200 … bet there’s a big push to Tuesday 0400 eh?
The BBC at their impartial best.
Reference the proposed reduction in overseas aid.
On Toady at 0710 we had a soft interview with a woman from Action Aid telling us how children were going to die as a result. Quite why this is not the responsibility of the country in question rather than the UK taxpayer was of course not asked.
Immediately following, as if to present the alternative case, Toady gave us the usually reliable David Davis………. telling us that he agreed with her!
Shortly after, as mentioned by up2snuff in his 0820 post above, we had the BBC’s favourite ‘independent commentator’, Gordon Brown, saying the same thing.
So absolutely no doubt whatsoever on where the impartial, entitled BBC stands on the issue of giving away taxpayers’ money.
Sluff
It does smack of a sort of unconscious colonialism that the UK throws money at the latest Third World ‘country ‘ without any reference to what it’s ‘ government is doing – apart from visiting the Bentley showroom or getting the first class ticket to Zurich ..
TOADY Watch #2 – please pardon my cynicism but ….
… does the UK Overseas Aid budget giveaway of 0.7% go into UK Charities funding to be disbursed around the world? Does it increase the turnover of those UK charities? If it increases the turnover of these charities, does it then have an influence on the size of salary paid to the Chief Executive and Board members?
Questions that could be asked by the BBC . . ……
I will not hold my breath.
Up2.
Your ‘giveaway’ remark may be a lot closer than you think.
I’ve heard stories several times that as the financial year comes to a close, the Overseas Aid department is so wedded to the 0.7% that it HAS to spend it. They literally give money to any idea that comes in. And more. They create bank accounts to put the money into, so that it looks as if the money has been spent and the 0.7% achieved.
It’s a classic example of the failings of Management by Objectives.
The objectives are apparently met, tick. But the benefit of them is near zero and better outcomes are ignored.
The same is true across government.
Big-spending departments like Defence propose annual budgets that go before parliament to receive the ‘vote’ for the money that they must spend. Senior civil servants are designated as ‘accounting officers’ and they are held ‘accountable’ for spending that money.
What can happen is that cautious ‘jobsworth’ directors wait for 10 months to get their ‘spends’ approved within the department and then go on a crazy spending spree on things that can be bought easily rather than needing months of contract work.
It is like having a family intent on buying a new car this year but not getting ‘approval’ to spend the money until November, at which point the car that is bought is the one that the dealer has for immediate delivery, not the one with the right options. In government the money can’t be ‘rolled over’, it must be spent in-year or is lost to the department and retained by The Treasury.
I once worked for a state organisation coming to the end of a financial year with an underspend . There was a prize for anyone who came up with a ‘problem ‘ to ‘solve ‘ by throwing taxpayers money at it .
The previous year ‘unused money ‘ was taken away and the following year the funding was cut – so spend spend spend .
Officially approved corruption really .
After retirement I took a non-exec board position at a housing association. One of the senior employees had worked for the NHS in Wales. Towards the end of one financial year the budget surplus was used to purchase IPads for all senior staff.
Sluff, I was thinking this morning do we have a fifth estate in Britain and is it Whitehall or are they considered to part of the usual Four: Monarchy, Government, Whitehall, Media ? Did I get that list right ?
I would certainly not disagree if you said “In the UK, our Government is all over the place, completely chaotic.”
In its defence I would say that it is constantly being undermined – not least by the BBC – as well as much of the other print and broadcast media. How much does Whitehall and its serpents undermine HMG?
Well, we know the view of a current Labour Peer and former Home Secretary about his fomer Deaprtment: “It is not fit for purpose.”
9am R4 No Marr and his agenda pushing
instead “Tom Sutcliffe and guests discuss mortality and what it means to have ‘a good death’.”
Just an afterthought.
Since they spend all their time letting all and sundry economic migrants from third world countries into our country and providing them with free board and lodging, why doesn’t the government just absorb the Border Farce into the Overseas Aid Ministry. Then it can attribute a sensible level of profit for overseas ‘sales’ (in reality given away at cost) of the AZ vaccine. and leave the total Overseas ‘Aid’ budget at 0.7% of GDP.
It’s a win win all round. Result!
Of course the overseas Aid budget is preposterously high and needs cutting-bear in mind the huge amounts of money gathered by various charities that send aid to various parts of the world. Oxfam for one, raises massive sums-so why does this nation need to make anything but a token amount-it is well known that the aid does not always reach the area it is most wanted. Africa should be able to feed all its peoples and most of the world if the continuous corruption could be halted, but as I have seen it won’t as long as Aid keeps pouring into those nations. Are those MP’s anxious to keep the Aid budget high so as to show their constituents how noble their cause is?
Sorry to say, Tarien, but using the words ‘MPs’ and ‘noble’ in the same sentence sticks in my craw.
The shower of misfits we have parading in Westminster wouldn’t understand the term ‘nobility’, and sadly the worlds most untrustworthy broadcaster fits their bill every time.
About 3rd world despots’ money – sorry, foreign aid, I can never understand why all that money can’t be used to keep illegals in check before they’re deported, and pay for a boat home.
They could use it to make the Dover barracks up to five star status, and that’d keep the lefties happy.
Instead we have failed politicians like brown and major pontificating on things they haven’t a clue about. The BBC sucks on this non-news at every opportunity.
My apologese Scroblene-how could I have made such a fopa-villain is better -capable of great wickedness and extreme duplicity. Of course the whole debacle is quite shocking-I have seen first hand the results of aid corruption-if people acting so generously, could encounter the results of what happens to much of the aid we send out from the UK, the aid would be only a trickle, if that. As long as the nations of Africa in particular, are controlled by corrupt governments then there is little chance of change.
Like the rest of the msm, the BBC has fawning headlines over the birth of the latest royal baby.
A more honest headline might be: Meghan makes damn sure no-one forgets she’s a royal by naming her daughter after the Queen and Diana – whose death we caused.

In a report on a ‘Kill the Bill’ protest a demonstrator said, “if I was to stand outside there with a sign, I could get up to 10 years in prison.”
In fact, the Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Bill, which applies to England and Wales, proposes a maximum sentence of 10 years for “intentionally or recklessly causing public nuisance” or for causing damage to statues or memorials.
Depending on the circumstances, a demonstrator might be fined: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-56400751

Dilemma Monday morning.
Return of Kay Bully to Sly. My Boss, aka Mrs Grimes, watched for 10 seconds before erupting. I switched, reluctantly, to Al Beeb to see Vicky Derbyshire doing a Bully job on Andrew Bridgen. Bridgen points out that no other major countries were shamed into meeting the aim of 0.7% of GDP after the UK did it. Cut to aid workers in Yemen, as per usual.
Meanwhile the strap on the screen pushes the lie that the 0.7% is ‘usual’.
Vicky Rackless needs to denounce Al Beeb to Our Marianna of the Rack for pushing lies/disinformation.
In June 2015, the UK’s Department for International Development (DFID) and the Bill &
Melinda Gates Foundation strengthened further their ongoing cooperation on nutrition
following the Nutrition for Growth event in London in 2013.
Since Nutrition for Growth, the foundation has taken its commitment to nutrition even
further in recognition of the fact that nutrition is a major driver of child mortality and
undermines children’s ability to thrive.
Between 2015 and December 2020 the foundation will spend a total of USD $776
million on nutrition, exceeding its N4G commitment by USD $360 million. This, in turn,
is sufficient to unlock additional UK resources of USD $180 million (GBP £115) (based
on the 2:1 matching ratio). These funds will allow the DFID to further expand its
investment in high impact nutrition-specific interventions in the period to 2020.
By strengthening work together and aligning resources, DFID and the foundation will be
better able to support wider donor coordination efforts in support of national plans, and
achieve greater impact on reducing undernutrition among women and children.
This statement will be publicly available as part of DFID’s commitment to transparently
reporting on its matched funding commitment
How very calculating some of these Tory mps are.
With the large majority they can safely virtue signal by voting to put the foreign aid up by 4 £billion knowing that it will not be changed.
Mind, they are not proper Tories anyway as Fed put on earlier (still some turds haven’t been flushed) and these ‘floaters’ can still make trouble until they lose their seat or join the liberal party.
I didn’t watch it but how did the 3 % black population get on in the BAFTAs.
Bbbc newcastle this morning, every scientist, politician and all the Vox pops they picked to play to us want the lockdown extended. Very even handed and impartially giving us one side of the situation.
I’d love somebody to ask on air why don’t they have the other view represented, the one the majority support.
Lilibet. How very clever to choose that name.
The BBC are pulling out all the big names in their articles about foreign aid:
John Major
Theresa May
Gordon Brown
Bob Geldof
It seems that in their little London bubble, those people aren’t objects of ridicule.
I little side notification popped up on my screen…
“Viewers blast woke BAFTAs, so woke is should be renamed the WAFTAs”.
There we have it.
“… there are two things. One you recognise what is happening. Two, are you prepared to do anything about it. “ – Margaret Thatcher
Still waiting for the BBC to report the story of the year:
“Please let me finish. So you don’t want to go to Hoboken, New Jersey, or to Fairfax, Virginia, to be studying the Bat-Human interface that might lead to an outbreak, so you go to China”.
– Dr. Anthony Fauci
The research was ‘too dangerous’ to do in the USA so he outsourced it to China, who botched the job and we all got sick.
Not a conspiracy Marianna, but straight from the horse’s mouth.
Although I’m as patriotic as the next Englishman, I’m afraid I can’t support the present England football team. It’s all this virtue signalling, knee bending nonsense that makes my hackles rise. It’s just wrong, men don’t kneel unless we’re proposing, getting knighted or we’re in church. All three rather unlikely in my case…
The England manager, Gareth Southgate, is a woefully woke, politically correct, sour-faced puritan. He’s essentially another Lineker, who by the way, is (as you’d expect) is fully supportive of this ritualistic grovelling.
I’ve been told that the latest kneel-a-thon received a massive booing backlash and two of the England ensemble remained standing. Good on ’em, but it really shouldn’t even be a consideration.
“Taking the knee” is a humiliating thing for any red blooded bloke to do. It’s divisive and the players should tell their woke manager to “do one.” Stand tall and stand firm and the fans will cheer you to the rafters.
I’m with the England fans on this one.
Gareth Southgate should stick to taking penalties…
Simon Webb firmly slaps down Miranda Kaufmann’s article in the Telegraph that promotes her book The Black Tudors
.. https://youtu.be/_2ysoqr9kyw
She made great claims of earlier Africans in Britain
However he firmly states no Carthaginian coins were found in Cornwall
Well there were 2 Numidian coins found in Cornwall that’s the Berber empire next to Carthage
And an archaeologist claims a date of 200BC based on the fact one was found inside a pre-Roman burial mound.
https://www.caitlingreen.org/2015/06/the-distribution-of-numidian-coins.html
Carthaginian coins were found in other counties according to her other map she mixes as in Numidian
… they did have alliances
https://www.caitlingreen.org/2015/04/thanet-tanit-and-the-phoenicians.html
By “her other map”, I mean Caitlin Green’s map
when she tweeted it, she did label it, as Carthaginian coins found in Cornwall cos she groups Carthaginian/Numidian coins together
Maybe they had problems with dinghies from France back then as well ….
Actually Caithlin tells me
There are both
2 Numidian and two Carthaginian/Punic coins
“The Carthaginian coins, both with head of Tanit,
are from the Hayle causeway
and a trench dug just outside the Iron Age fort of Castle Killibury.”
I do believe her cos some large hordes have been found
The Romans were her hundreds of years they could have brought some Carthaginian coins, not that the Carthagians themselves came.
A few months ago I wrote to the llocal council about some appalling potholes directly on the driving line on a rather narrow but popular country road. Shortly afterwards they filled in the pot holes with the most temporary cheapo job imaginable. Sure enough, here we are and predictably the cheap infill is already being eroded and the same pothole is reforming.
Never mind about Overseas Aid. I want to see some Home Road Aid.
Have you missed the message? Thou shalt not drive.
Therefore expense involved in the upkeep of public roads is no longer deemed a priority. (Not that it ever was…).
Wot about us cyclists, OG? I drive but also cycle. The bad road surfaces do the old arthritis in the hands as well as other parts of the anatomy no good at all, especially in winter.
If you want to encourage cycling nudge nudge 😉 😉 then good road surfaces are essential.
Do male cyclists (those who cant possibly give birth) wear anything that’s equivalent to a box ? Just asking.
Jeremy Vine has one on top of his helmet.
Still somehow got to be the father of a company director.
When you visit Kent, there is an added bicycling manoeuvre required on most roads, as KCC have a habit of sinking every drain cover a couple of inches below the normal surface of the tarmac, so you either drive round it, and risk getting a bus up your a***, or go over it, and consider Brissles’ comment as a possibility for the future rides…
Brissles and Scrobie, driving along a Kent lane some years ago I hit a pothole hard enough to make the eyes on my wrist water! The wrist was still painful next day. It also put the steering out of kilter and cost £30 to fix. Didn’t know at the time but roads are so bad now that Local Authorities pay out almost without question if you present them with a bill for repairs.
If Boris Johnson wanted to do something really useful he could start a national renewal campaign with a chunk of that Foreign Aid 0.7% as reduced to 0.5% to clear up litter, fix potholes, get LAs to trim hedges and verges properly, put up road names (including extra ones in the middle where a road is lengthy) and make sure road signage is visible to road users.
I’m with you on this Sluff. Same problem in my village. I drive a a 4 x 4 and lately have been feeling every dip in the road. I’ve even had my suspension and tyres checked – they’re fine, its just the appalling state of the roads.
I have it on good authority that an anagram of the poor child’s name is ‘laid alien bit’. I shall leave it there.
