In my opinion this “McCarthyism” cancel culture being
adopted by the anarchist Marxist and liberal bigoted
university tutors and students has got to be turned on them !
They need to read the riot act regarding their futures. As
for the lecturers they have been allowed to fester since
the late 1960’S when Marxism could not win at the
ballot box so gradual indoctrination was drip fed to
students, where many have finished up in top jobs at
institutions such as the BBC. And indoctrinated students
became the lecturers of today.
Those pulling down photos of the queen should have this
marked down on their applications for any further advances.
As should those wanting to tearing down statues.
Employers in the future should know whatever
degrees these scumbags have got, their past behaviour and
actions should be reviewed before being employed.
If its good enough for 18 year old budding cricketers to be
cancelled for comments made. It’s good enough for these
feral lecturers and students to be cancelled as well!
There may well be a ‘fire-break in all this, Fos, as when studes get whatever ‘vegan gender’ studies ‘degree’ their mum pays for, there’s always a time when nobody is really interested in the bollocks they spout, so they have no income and can’t get benefits.
So they rely on mummy (and daddy if he hasn’t pissed off) to fund them, and that is a crucial time in their lives, when it dawns on them that all the tosh they’ve taken in with all the booze, fags and stuff, doesn’t really do much for any sort of real money!
That is a key moment in the stude’s life, but being such an idiot since leaving school for three years, and now actually facing penury, a sort of rationality has to take place, as they can’t run to their ‘tutors’ any more, so have to actually work.
I don’t know what a ‘tutor’ or whatever it’s called, earns, but assuming it’s well over the average for normal working citizens, they have a cushy life on the whole, and never have to justify what they’ve turned out from their fat colleges.
So according to Sopel, Biden’s warnings (threats?) on Northern Ireland are NOT outrageous meddling in the UK’s affairs, but a sign that ‘he cares about what’s going on in the world’. So that’s all right then.
Oh, and he’s saving Western liberal democracy too. And all that on his first day.
What’s he going to do the rest of the week?

9pm BBC2 David Olusoga with prog about toppling of the Bristol statue

Which victims and enslavers will Olusoga mention ?
You'll have to wait & see, but I can see that you've just written about a slave trader without mentioning his victims, just as his statue & the whole Colston cult never mentioned his victims, or his religious bigotry that excluded children of other denominations from his charity.

Regarding GB News, I previously posted that there could be problems with Freeview coverage. Apparently the max. coverage for this channel will be around the 66% mark. There are also long term funding issues. What it does show is the massive, publicly funded, advantage the BBC has with first dibs on coverage rights (followed by 2,3,4 and 5) under the auspices of “public service”. Obviously this has been used as a Trojan Horse by these channels to push their neo-liberal agenda to the limit. It is an extremely disturbing issue, particularly as the regulator, along with all other regulators in this country seem to be in business to give their their respective “clients” as easy a ride as possible.
Maybe I’m missing something here but I don’t have a TV licence so won’t be able to legally watch GB News live. I don’t think that I will therefore be able to subscribe to it, unless there is a YouTube channel which isn’t a live stream and which will be free. So as far as I’m aware I can’t really support GB News financially unless I buy a TV licence again, which isn’t going to happen. There must be a few hundred thousand others like me, if not a couple of million, which is a serious amount of lost potential revenue for any business starting out.
I would of thought that many of those who have cancelled their licences over the past few years have done so mainly because of the blatantly biased BBC News coverage and have been crying out for something like GB News. How do they watch it?
I don’t think they can legally without also having to finance the bBbc. Can they?

The Southern Irish are shitting themselves behind the scenes because they know that their economy is built on sand. Their parochial posturing is simply pride before a fall.
Both ‘I’m Irish’ Biden and the similarly unethical EU want to impose standardised corporation tax rates across their markets. Success for either would be disastrous for Ireland. The manufactured beef about sausages is a poorly-played porkie, have a quick glance over this link.
There’s a lot in this but just look at some of the figures and at how reliant the Irish economy is on American multinational firms, especially Apple. The only thing keeping these firms in the South is the low corporation tax rate of 12.5%, less than half that of their German and French masters. How much longer do you think Merkel and Macron will allow this? The EU have lost one cash cow in the UK, money must be found somewhere to make up the shortfall and the suckers in the South have been getting too much American money for themselves for too long.
The Irish have no real industry, their housing market is going to implode again, immigrant and gang crime is at epidemic proportions and their cost of living, including medical bills as there is no NHS, is much higher than ours. I agree that the Republic could be the next country to leave but they’ll be a basket case when they do, and although they might well be having a laugh at the expense of the Brits at the moment, especially us in the North, he who laughs last….
And the duplicitous deceitful dullards deserve all they get.

BBC Framing Today may have blundered, big time, this morning. #1
The BBC on Farming Today (R4 5.45 a.m.) like to ‘frame’ the narrative that ‘we deplorables’ were stupid to Vote Leave in the EU Referendum five years ago this month. On the programme this morning they highlighted the problems of food exporters dealing with extra paperwork and veterinary checks to export to the EU.
However, highlighting the wasteful bureaucracy of the EU and the opportunities it presents for fraud (think horsemeat instead of beef in EU lasange) rather underlines the wisdom of voting to get out of that unnecessary burden.
I think he’s actually a shelf-stacker in a 24-hour garage with too much time on his hands during the quiet night shifts, posting here during breaks from writing his Pratchett-style fantasy novel and serving microwave burgers through a hatch.

Why we may have to wait longer for Freedom Day
It is often said that vaccination has broken the link between infections and hospitalisations – and if people are not getting seriously sick, then it does not matter if infection levels rise. But at this stage it appears to have weakened it rather than broken it. Admissions have already started rising, albeit not as fast as they did in September, the last time infections were rising at this rate.
The rate of hospitalisations appears to be less than half of what it was then, although there are only a few days of data to draw on so scientists cannot be certain. This is one of the reasons why they are asking ministers for more time to monitor the data.
Thirty seven years after Michael Buerk’s landmark BBC report brought the horrors of famine in Ethiopia into living rooms, UN analysis says 350,000 people in the country’s north are living in “severe crisis”. While the UN stops short of labelling it a famine, its humanitarian chief, Mark Lowcock, says: “There is famine now. This is going to get a lot worse.” The effects of seven months of fighting between Nobel Peace Prize-winner Abiy Ahmed’s government and the Tigray People’s Liberation Front have left people on the verge of starvation. One man in the isolated district of Qafta Humera tells us their crops and livestock have been looted*. “Nobody has given us any aid,” he says. “Almost everyone is on the verge of death. The situation is perilous.”

BBC Framing Today may have blundered, big time, this morning. #2
BBC’s Farming Today is as ‘right on’ as any BBC Dept in supporting the Global Warming/Climate Change/Climate Emergency as any in the Corporation despite farmers taking a rather more sanguine and knowledgeable view of the subject. However, the Beeb blundered big time on Farming Today as far as the Globally Warmed Veganites are concerned. They took a look at pig farming in Wales.
It’s only a small part of Welsh meat production, bemoaned Caz Graham. I immediately thought ‘You ought to know why that is, Caz’. But no. The Beeb are so caught up with the Veganites and AGW/CC/C-E that they do not realise that land has to be suitable for what you farm from that land. Much of Wales is at many degrees to the horizontal, where sheep and cows can be farmed but no crops (for pig feed) can be grown and pigs can be easily housed. Pigs and pig farmers prefer places like Cambridgeshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and Norfolk for pork production.
That’s not to say you cannot keep a pig or two on a hill farm; just that you cannot achieve economies of scale on land that is not suited to the product. And it’s difficult or well-nigh impossible to grow vegan crops on a hill farm, BBC, without drastic alteration to the landscape.
Aah, but Welsh farmers are clever. They would let the pig chase them one way round the hill, then they would reverse direction and confront the pig with a sharp knife. The pig would try to run away round the hill in the opposite direction and would fall and end up rolling down the hill. Whereupon the sharp knife would do its work. Eeeek.
Ilhan Omar: US congresswoman defends ‘offensive’ Israel remark https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-57436573
This story is offensive on just about every level – but most of all is the attempt by the BBC to smear some of her disgrace on Trump.
This is Trump:
‘When he was asked on Fox News about his “respect” for Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom the host called “a killer”.
“There are a lot of killers. We have a lot of killers,” Mr Trump responded. “Well, you think our country is so innocent?”
I know for a fact this is correct. The rules of engagement are so restrictive in places like Syria, they do many things to get around them. It levels the playing field. And much of what Putin says is common sense. He is just ruthless when he implements his solution. But he sorted ISIS out for us by doing what had to be done.
However the BBC are trying to equate this to that awful woman saying:
“we have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the US, Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban”.
Shame on you BBC.
Wanted to hear the ‘news’ on R5Floyd last night, and all they blathered on about was fooball – all blasted night!

Figuring out the special relationship – gone west – our leaders are not our heroes
‘Oh baby, what a love-in!‘ – that’s the Daily Mail headline caption to the somewhat twee photo op for the Boris-Biden families on some security secluded west country beach in Cornwall yesterday. The Mail, unusually, makes the BBC’s top spot in their press frontpages line up.
So what do we make of it, what might be the significance for the UK-US special relationship? Our various national newspaper titles will each have their varied take, which we will give the most cursory survey, but based simply on the dramatis personae what’s our observation?
Well, if one didn’t know better from these fakey family holiday pics one would match Boris and Mrs Biden as the couple (I call Jill Biden, Mrs, although one is given to understand that – perhaps due to the current pandemic – the First Lady prefers her title Dr – she has a non-medical doctorate in education by the way – although Dr Jill Biden sounds great, right?)
It’s ageist of me, I know, but Carrie looks like Boris and Jill’s daughter and little Wilfred – the only member of the grouping still in a nappy – an arse nappy – would be the grandchild. Which would make Joe the great grandaddy. Which sounds about right.
Once the rest of the G7 get into the mix there’ll be the added complication of all sorts of batty old aunts and peculiar uncles we don’t like to mention.
There may be few obligations in life so arduous as having to summon enthusiasm for someone elses’ holiday snaps but the Mail gushes approval in a courageous effort: ‘Summit special reports see pages 2-9‘ – slow news day?
‘Boris Johnson hailed Joe Biden as “a breath of fresh air” last night as the two men met in Cornwall‘ – it’s cringeworthy, but I suppose talk is cheap and if that butters up the old geezer, then I shan’t complain.
Not so the Guardian: ‘Bitter stand off over Brexit sours the start of G7 summit‘ – I guess you pays your money and you takes your pick. Or, where the Guardian is concerned, if you’re one of the few who happen to be reading it, you probably reads it free thanks to the many dozens of BBC in-house subscription copies.
The Gruan goes on to feature the opinions of the President Macron on their frontpage at some length. One doubts a genuine interest in Irish affairs particularly motivates the Frenchman – recently slapped in the face by a man – traditionally the prelude to a formal duel at dawn with seconds, but a lightening swift: ‘Four months for man who attacked French president‘ (BBC) was handed down. Perhaps the revelation that the provocateur was: ‘A medieval combat enthusiast‘ dissuaded the diminutive Macron from accepting the challenge? These days our leaders are not our heroes.
‘PM ponders four-week delay before end of curbs‘ – says the Telegraph, making Boris sound less like his purported hero Winston Churchill and more like Winnie the Pooh.
““Oh, bother,” said Pooh, as, try as he might, he failed to escape from the honey pot stuck on his head, and pondered what he might try next?“
As a student of sub subbing, this thread is illuminating.
That’s not actually what he said. He said that he had seen no evidence that healthcare workers died from lack of PPE. I guess the RCNs best response would be to show him the evidence- if there is any.
Only last week a story surfaced about a US activist employed by RCN to push a marxist agenda in the organisation.
RCN is a left-wing saturated political organisation and has very little to do with health care. It needs to be investigated and dismantled. The public have a right for totally unbiased health-centred care that we all pay for by force.
TOADY Watch #1 – ‘Part-time’ turns up for work at the BBC!
A big headline moment, especially after my post yesterday. I guess she doesn’t want Nick Robinson stealing the limelight at the G7. Mind you, ‘Part-time’ is eclipsed by the BBC’s Economics Editor, Faisal Islam, who makes you wonder whether he actually does any work at the BBC at all. Whatsoever.
Now that I have typed that he will probably turn up later today or tomorrow on the Cornwall jolly with Nick and and ‘Part-time’.
PS: ‘Part-time’ didn’t add anything much to our knowledge of the G7 event for the air time consumed. The BBC could be a much more efficient operation if it slimmed down a lot.

“You do want to save billions of lives around the world by giving away vaccines dont you ?”

BBC policy is to stop all UK vaccinations – let the unvaccinated get covid – maybe die
– but feel good about vaccinating bongo bongo land

Listening to Robinson – I wonder if he is a fascist – I’m not too sure of the definition – but his absolute certainty that his belief is the only way – the complete denial of an alternative view or values – does that fit ?
Even worse are red Tory ministers who submit to him – as the pompous half wit CCHQ put up this morning . Does any politician of the red centre ever take them on ?
I only listened to Today whilst I took a short car journey and heard the end of the Robinson interview the Minister – it was obviously a ‘when did you stop beating your wife’ moment. The minister was damned whatever he said. But Robinson finishing off with ‘well shall we go now and ask the Prime Minister what he things about kneeling’ was behaving like a spoilt child. It was hardly a Humphries interview.

has told us,
that he’s been shocked that fans are booing
the players who take the knee before a match
‘I’m a black man born/raised in Britain … we are one people’
He lives here in Spalding, and has used his work in the past, to promote EQUALITY and DIVERSITY”
…
‘I was shocked that the fans were booing the black players
I thought do ALL you people not like me ?’
(doh, they weren’t booing blacks,
they were booing supporting BLM, The imported American Marxist POLITICAL campaign and its division)
….
Now a minor headline,
a man has been jailed for 2 years after arranging to have sex with a girl he thought was a 13 year old
but it was a police sting
the 54 yo admitted the crime and put on the sex offenders list for life”
The only black celeb in Lincolnshire
Almost the only black person in lincolnshire : Benjamin Zephaniah
BTW from Zephaniah’s bio about his days in gangs
\\ He became so good at picking pockets that he saw it as an “art”//

Regarding GB News, I previously posted that there could be problems with Freeview coverage. Apparently the max. coverage for this channel will be around the 66% mark. There are also long term funding issues. What it does show is the massive, publicly funded, advantage the BBC has with first dibs on coverage rights (followed by 2,3,4 and 5) under the auspices of “public service”. Obviously this has been used as a Trojan Horse by these channels to push their neo-liberal agenda to the limit. It is an extremely disturbing issue, particularly as the regulator, along with all other regulators in this country seem to be in business to give their their respective “clients” as easy a ride as possible.

Jack,
Maybe I’m missing something here but I don’t have a TV licence so won’t be able to legally watch GB News live. I don’t think that I will therefore be able to subscribe to it, unless there is a YouTube channel which isn’t a live stream and which will be free. So as far as I’m aware I can’t really support GB News financially unless I buy a TV licence again, which isn’t going to happen. There must be a few hundred thousand others like me, if not a couple of million, which is a serious amount of lost potential revenue for any business starting out.
I would of thought that many of those who have cancelled their licences over the past few years have done so mainly because of the blatantly biased BBC News coverage and have been crying out for something like GB News. How do they watch it?
I don’t think they can legally without also having to finance the bBbc. Can they?

The Southern Irish are shitting themselves behind the scenes because they know that their economy is built on sand. Their parochial posturing is simply pride before a fall.
Both ‘I’m Irish’ Biden and the similarly unethical EU want to impose standardised corporation tax rates across their markets. Success for either would be disastrous for Ireland. The manufactured beef about sausages is a poorly-played porkie, have a quick glance over this link.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporation_tax_in_the_Republic_of_Ireland
There’s a lot in this but just look at some of the figures and at how reliant the Irish economy is on American multinational firms, especially Apple. The only thing keeping these firms in the South is the low corporation tax rate of 12.5%, less than half that of their German and French masters. How much longer do you think Merkel and Macron will allow this? The EU have lost one cash cow in the UK, money must be found somewhere to make up the shortfall and the suckers in the South have been getting too much American money for themselves for too long.
The Irish have no real industry, their housing market is going to implode again, immigrant and gang crime is at epidemic proportions and their cost of living, including medical bills as there is no NHS, is much higher than ours. I agree that the Republic could be the next country to leave but they’ll be a basket case when they do, and although they might well be having a laugh at the expense of the Brits at the moment, especially us in the North, he who laughs last….
And the duplicitous deceitful dullards deserve all they get.

BBC Framing Today may have blundered, big time, this morning. #1
The BBC on Farming Today (R4 5.45 a.m.) like to ‘frame’ the narrative that ‘we deplorables’ were stupid to Vote Leave in the EU Referendum five years ago this month. On the programme this morning they highlighted the problems of food exporters dealing with extra paperwork and veterinary checks to export to the EU.
However, highlighting the wasteful bureaucracy of the EU and the opportunities it presents for fraud (think horsemeat instead of beef in EU lasange) rather underlines the wisdom of voting to get out of that unnecessary burden.

Why we may have to wait longer for Freedom Day
It is often said that vaccination has broken the link between infections and hospitalisations – and if people are not getting seriously sick, then it does not matter if infection levels rise. But at this stage it appears to have weakened it rather than broken it. Admissions have already started rising, albeit not as fast as they did in September, the last time infections were rising at this rate.
The rate of hospitalisations appears to be less than half of what it was then, although there are only a few days of data to draw on so scientists cannot be certain. This is one of the reasons why they are asking ministers for more time to monitor the data.

UN aid chief says there is famine in Ethiopia
Thirty seven years after Michael Buerk’s landmark BBC report brought the horrors of famine in Ethiopia into living rooms, UN analysis says 350,000 people in the country’s north are living in “severe crisis”. While the UN stops short of labelling it a famine, its humanitarian chief, Mark Lowcock, says: “There is famine now. This is going to get a lot worse.” The effects of seven months of fighting between Nobel Peace Prize-winner Abiy Ahmed’s government and the Tigray People’s Liberation Front have left people on the verge of starvation. One man in the isolated district of Qafta Humera tells us their crops and livestock have been looted*. “Nobody has given us any aid,” he says. “Almost everyone is on the verge of death. The situation is perilous.”

BBC Framing Today may have blundered, big time, this morning. #2
BBC’s Farming Today is as ‘right on’ as any BBC Dept in supporting the Global Warming/Climate Change/Climate Emergency as any in the Corporation despite farmers taking a rather more sanguine and knowledgeable view of the subject. However, the Beeb blundered big time on Farming Today as far as the Globally Warmed Veganites are concerned. They took a look at pig farming in Wales.
It’s only a small part of Welsh meat production, bemoaned Caz Graham. I immediately thought ‘You ought to know why that is, Caz’. But no. The Beeb are so caught up with the Veganites and AGW/CC/C-E that they do not realise that land has to be suitable for what you farm from that land. Much of Wales is at many degrees to the horizontal, where sheep and cows can be farmed but no crops (for pig feed) can be grown and pigs can be easily housed. Pigs and pig farmers prefer places like Cambridgeshire, Leicestershire, Lincolnshire and Norfolk for pork production.
That’s not to say you cannot keep a pig or two on a hill farm; just that you cannot achieve economies of scale on land that is not suited to the product. And it’s difficult or well-nigh impossible to grow vegan crops on a hill farm, BBC, without drastic alteration to the landscape.
Very much a BBC Farming Today ‘duher’ moment.

Not sure that the pigs get to choose, if they knew what was coming to them they might prefer to outrun a farmer on a Welsh hillside!

Aah, but Welsh farmers are clever. They would let the pig chase them one way round the hill, then they would reverse direction and confront the pig with a sharp knife. The pig would try to run away round the hill in the opposite direction and would fall and end up rolling down the hill. Whereupon the sharp knife would do its work. Eeeek.

Ilhan Omar: US congresswoman defends ‘offensive’ Israel remark
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-57436573
This story is offensive on just about every level – but most of all is the attempt by the BBC to smear some of her disgrace on Trump.
This is Trump:
‘When he was asked on Fox News about his “respect” for Russian President Vladimir Putin, whom the host called “a killer”.
“There are a lot of killers. We have a lot of killers,” Mr Trump responded. “Well, you think our country is so innocent?”
I know for a fact this is correct. The rules of engagement are so restrictive in places like Syria, they do many things to get around them. It levels the playing field. And much of what Putin says is common sense. He is just ruthless when he implements his solution. But he sorted ISIS out for us by doing what had to be done.
However the BBC are trying to equate this to that awful woman saying:
“we have seen unthinkable atrocities committed by the US, Hamas, Israel, Afghanistan, and the Taliban”.
Shame on you BBC.

Figuring out the special relationship – gone west – our leaders are not our heroes
‘Oh baby, what a love-in!‘ – that’s the Daily Mail headline caption to the somewhat twee photo op for the Boris-Biden families on some security secluded west country beach in Cornwall yesterday. The Mail, unusually, makes the BBC’s top spot in their press frontpages line up.
So what do we make of it, what might be the significance for the UK-US special relationship? Our various national newspaper titles will each have their varied take, which we will give the most cursory survey, but based simply on the dramatis personae what’s our observation?
Well, if one didn’t know better from these fakey family holiday pics one would match Boris and Mrs Biden as the couple (I call Jill Biden, Mrs, although one is given to understand that – perhaps due to the current pandemic – the First Lady prefers her title Dr – she has a non-medical doctorate in education by the way – although Dr Jill Biden sounds great, right?)
It’s ageist of me, I know, but Carrie looks like Boris and Jill’s daughter and little Wilfred – the only member of the grouping still in a nappy – an arse nappy – would be the grandchild. Which would make Joe the great grandaddy. Which sounds about right.
Once the rest of the G7 get into the mix there’ll be the added complication of all sorts of batty old aunts and peculiar uncles we don’t like to mention.
There may be few obligations in life so arduous as having to summon enthusiasm for someone elses’ holiday snaps but the Mail gushes approval in a courageous effort: ‘Summit special reports see pages 2-9‘ – slow news day?
‘Boris Johnson hailed Joe Biden as “a breath of fresh air” last night as the two men met in Cornwall‘ – it’s cringeworthy, but I suppose talk is cheap and if that butters up the old geezer, then I shan’t complain.
Not so the Guardian: ‘Bitter stand off over Brexit sours the start of G7 summit‘ – I guess you pays your money and you takes your pick. Or, where the Guardian is concerned, if you’re one of the few who happen to be reading it, you probably reads it free thanks to the many dozens of BBC in-house subscription copies.
The Gruan goes on to feature the opinions of the President Macron on their frontpage at some length. One doubts a genuine interest in Irish affairs particularly motivates the Frenchman – recently slapped in the face by a man – traditionally the prelude to a formal duel at dawn with seconds, but a lightening swift: ‘Four months for man who attacked French president‘ (BBC) was handed down. Perhaps the revelation that the provocateur was: ‘A medieval combat enthusiast‘ dissuaded the diminutive Macron from accepting the challenge? These days our leaders are not our heroes.
‘PM ponders four-week delay before end of curbs‘ – says the Telegraph, making Boris sound less like his purported hero Winston Churchill and more like Winnie the Pooh.
““Oh, bother,” said Pooh, as, try as he might, he failed to escape from the honey pot stuck on his head, and pondered what he might try next?“

TOADY Watch #1 – ‘Part-time’ turns up for work at the BBC!
A big headline moment, especially after my post yesterday. I guess she doesn’t want Nick Robinson stealing the limelight at the G7. Mind you, ‘Part-time’ is eclipsed by the BBC’s Economics Editor, Faisal Islam, who makes you wonder whether he actually does any work at the BBC at all. Whatsoever.
Now that I have typed that he will probably turn up later today or tomorrow on the Cornwall jolly with Nick and and ‘Part-time’.
PS: ‘Part-time’ didn’t add anything much to our knowledge of the G7 event for the air time consumed. The BBC could be a much more efficient operation if it slimmed down a lot.
