Midweek Thread 14 July 2021

Somebody the other day said that when they watched the BBC news they wanted to hear the news . But now what they get is a BBC campaign for various forms of ‘social justice ‘ – a series of woke campaigns and biased left wing propaganda . No wonder the viewing figures are falling quickly . End the BBC .

    “PM must level up the North at pace, say Tory MPs”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-57813975
    I think that there are a lot of Tory MPs “oop north” getting worried that their jobs could be coming to an end ?
    Ordinary people way North and West of the ‘London bubble’, once again have been forgotten despite all the promises.

    The despicable piece of absolute Irish shit Colum Eastwood has tried to put a bounty and target on an old British Soldier using Parliamentary privilege…

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-57825284

    He has even arranged to get the mans name plastered on buildings in Ireland. This is really as low as you can get.

    I think if this old man gets attacked Mr Eastwood should face charges of conspiracy to murder.

    Lots of British soldiers and innocent civilians lost their lives to the animals that this specimen is trying to succour.

    Finally what is he even doing in our parliament?

    I guess that is the same tactics used by BLM against Chauvin when it comes down to brass tacks.

    Just reading how Guto Harri – 18 years veteran BBC reporter – took the knee live on GB news.
    Bowing down to a marxist, racist political movement was an extremely bad move for GB news. Avoiding that kind of thing is what it is supposed to be all about. I sincerely hope he never gets invited on there again.
    I detest those scumbag supporters as much as anybody. They are low-life. But the narrative seems to be they are normal white people – just like you and me – who are racists. They are not : they are scumbags from start to finish. They hate anyone and everyone. I’m sure we’ve all known someone like that and trying to cram all white people into that same bucket like Guto is doing is racist and it’s wrong.
    It won’t make one jot of difference to those people how many Guto’s take the knee. They are the white equivalent of the BLM thugs or they are far-left scum playing their dirty political tricks. None of them deserve the air they breathe.
    I am certain this was not a spur of the moment decision by him.

      The vote was passed so I suspect the BBC wanted to remove all the counterarguments to their bitter propaganda piece I linked to a few posts down.
      That article has Kier saying “Every member here was elected on a manifesto promise to retain the 0.7% target.”
      I suspect very, very few people took that into account when they didn’t vote for Labour. He should still be hanging his head in shame after what those scumbags did to manifesto promises about Brexit. These people are lower than snakes.

        But Boris has lost most of his many balls, so will probably bottle it and let the bloke in, probably in exchange for some non-agreement with Kamilla Norris who is the dangling puppet for all the other lousy US super-rich ‘democrats’.

    Their entire existence depends on calling white people racists. I’d wager they would conclude every single Western society is systematically racist. And the report was funded by the taxpayer.

    I’ve spent time in the Palace of Westminster – the atmosphere – the architecture – the bon homie – the false history – all contribute to disconnecting MPs from the public common sense .
    All of their constituency partys should deselect them .

    And the red Tory government should use the vote to water down overseas giveaways and get rid of it – and perhaps give the likes of Andrew Mitchell the opportunity to give his wealth to charity in order to ‘care for ‘ the people he considers more important than his own voters .

    Anti-Brexit wet Tory and failed PM Sir John Major makes the frontpage of the Guardian this morning. And why wouldn’t the Gruan have leapt on his quote telling us British, like a father to errant children, why we can’t have nice things: ‘It seems we can afford a “national yacht” while cutting help to some of the most destitute people in the world’

    Talk about managed delcine. I guess that’s the secret the Sir Humphreys tell you when you finally get the keys to number 10. You’re just here to manage the decline, you know.

    Is it any wonder the Gruan shares the same crypto-colonial outlook as the wet Tories? ‘Outrage as No 10 slashes foreign aid budget amid fears for world’s poor’ – outrage? Care to put that one to a referendum?

    TOADY Watch #1 – in which Rick Nobinson asks the questions but doesn’t interrupt and repeat the question

    Sadiq Khan, Labour Mayor of London, is given quite an easy ride without a mask on a TFL bus or train by Rick Nobinson. At least that is how it sounded to me. (RadioFlaw 8.10 a.m.) I could be biased as I tend toward conservatism. It seems fairly obvious that the Labour Party, the NHS, the Trade Unions, Labour Mayors and the Labour BBC are all using facemasks as a weapon in opposition to the PM, Her Majesty’s Government and the general public’s freedom.

    Nick did challenge Mayor Khan (unfortunate title & name combo that, it gives me the shivers as I remember Meir Kahane) on facemasks. Nick said they do not work. Mayor Khan’s answer was something like “WHO have decided they do help combat the spread of Covid” which, if I recall correctly, is a position that WHO have updated to the opposite. Stew will no doubt correct me if wrong. Thanks in advance, Stew.

    Nick challenged the Mayor on Wembley policing and the Metropolitan Police and Cressida Dick in general but allowed Sadiq Khan and easy wriggle on everything. Will this be the start of a new impartiality and strict political neutrality on the BBC?

    Or was it the same old same-oh?

    The BBC and the Labour Party plus anyone else versus a Conservative Government.

    The head of the FA was asked about security at Wembley the other day and his response was ‘it’s a sports ground – not a fortress ‘. Well – from personal experience of ‘sports grounds ‘ – as an away supporter at – say – Stamford bridge – you will be lucky to get away with just 2 – two body searches by private security ( not sure on the Nigerian tribe ) before even presenting your ticket .

    On the upside – the media induced enthusiasm for storming the stadium will be a great excuse for FIFA declining to give the FA the World Cup gig .

    Personally I was amazed at the images – but if it is true that illegal entry was planned online and stewards bribed to open doors – maybe they should use our excellent “border force ‘?

      Fed, t’other day you spoke of Leyton Orient. I seem to recall their ground is very open and surrounded by houses which front onto the ground. I happened to be nearby one Saturday when a match was in progress. I asked a gentleman guarding one of the entrances, that was just up some steps from the public thoroughfare (ie. pavement) whether I could just take a quick look into the stadium as I had never been to ‘the Orient’.

      The reply was: “Sure, but make sure you come back down fairly quickly”. There was another Steward at the top, who I’m sure would have asked if I had a ticket if I had turned left or right to either the seats or the terraces.

      The friendly reception is a good memory to have.

          Fed, it was packed that day. It may have been an FA Cup game though. It was probably into the second-half so I stayed just long enough to do a 360 degree look around and check the score. Had other things to do that day. It’s a great location. A community club before such things became politicised.

    Here’s a story that’s trending on some alternative social media, that the BBC seems to have missed.

    There is an explosion of cases of child abuse in islamic madrasas throughout Pakistan and Bangladesh (and elsewhere in the muslim world). The abuse is not new, but it’s starting to be exposed.

    ‘Child abuse’ is too anodyne an expression: violent rape and sodomy might be more accurate.
    One such case involved the Religionist of Peace in the photo below who peacefully sodomised a 10-year-old boy so brutally and so frequently that his eyes bled.

    I repeat: his eyes bled.

    Now, I don’t know what you have to do to a 10-year-old to make his eyes bleed, and I don’t want to know; but I’m damn sure it ain’t pretty.

    images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQB7J4QPduMHAc-AF4wHQdANMTv_LAGUD-asw&usqp=CAU

    Another ‘cleric’ (i.e. rapist) broke a small girl’s back while sharing some of that islamic love.

    One ‘cleric’ said: I don’t know what all the fuss is about, the companions of mohammed did the same (for once he spoke the truth). He was arrested but later released.

    These are not isolated cases, far from. There are countless horrific stories, an avalanche of cases coming to light – and even those are just the tip of the iceberg according to Pakistan’s own press, who are often viciously attacked for exposing the scandal.

    One Pakistani scholar and whistle-blower estimates there would hardly be a madrasa where such abuse is NOT happening.

    Over 2.2 million children are indoctrinated in over 36,000 madrasas in Pakistan, so imagine – just imagine – the industrial scale of the abuse. It makes our own little grooming gangs oop North seem tame by comparison.

    (Talking of which, child abuse is rampant in UK madrasas too: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2050399/Hundreds-Muslim-children-abused-UK-madrassas.html )

    So, BBC, you care so much about females, and children, and muslims: how about a brave investigative report? Hello… anyone there?

    Silly me, they don’t even care about children abused by grooming gangs on our own shores, so why should the racist BBC care about little brown children in faraway countries?

      I’ve realised recently why the BBC are doing this. As a general rule, their global reach means that what might be outrageous to us might be acceptable to someone else. Hence they do not run stories like this for fear of offending them.
      This policy means the only allowable targets for accusations of serious wrongdoing are the white British!. It’s astonishing considering one B stands for ‘British’ but it is absolutely true.

        When tweets embed they automatically include the parent tweet, ie the tweet it is in reply to. (if there is one)
        That’s why I sometimes only quotes the words if the parent tweet includes a big image etc.

      Yesterday what do we see a presenter on there taking to the knee,
      telling us that we should take our knee and if we don’t we are somehow racist,
      which is preposterous and ludicrous

      This whole debate about taking to the knee is so ridiculous.
      I can’t believe this is the new way of dividing us
      And that’s what it is isn’t it ?

      We’ve seen it with the football fans.
      Just a few people on twitter who are anonymous who could be in Israel, America, South America, Australia, Dubai or anywhere
      .. because we don’t know.
      And because twitter’s unaccountable we’ll never find out.
      We’re all getting the blame for everything which was down to 0.001 % of people
      yet GBnews are certainly switching it around … that this is a whole nation of racists who support football
      And therefore their presenter wants to take to the knee in some show of defiance against us
      in support of them a Marxist organization
      that has fraudsters and criminals within it
      who seem to applaud the abuse of police officers
      want the police defunded
      and like setting fires to buildings
      And when we challenge that I and anyone else who wants to debate it is somehow described as a racist
      I find this offensive and for me this is the final nail in the coffin for GBnews

      One of the stupidest stunts in TV history ever Andrew Kneel must be holding his head in his hands
      because i’m telling you the few people who were left watching will now be switching off
      Because they will not be on par with this man

      It continues

    Having planned and signally failed in an exhibition of woke and divisive politics, at the expense of a football game and the careers of two, possibly three young black players, will Southgate look back with pride on what will undoubtedly be his legacy?

      Beltane, you could argue that the game was lost when Italy was allowed to score during the second-half. Was it a ‘soft’ goal, ie. a giveaway? I didn’t watch (for obvious reasons) nor did I listen to a radio commentary. Just dipped in on-line every now and then to the BBC web-site.

      • Beltane says:

        Depending, I suppose, on personal levels of paranoia, you could be tempted to think that Southgate planned and played for a draw, culminating in penalties and with the three chosen youngsters ending the game in a climax of glory, racial harmony and woke political success. The reality was a monumental back-fire which has now resulted in hysteria.

        That game-plan theory might seem far-fetched, but it certainly goes some way towards explaining his quite extraordinary decision making – or total lack of it – most especially throughout the whole second half.

    He will be able to hear the sound problems we often hear as well as some of the other technical failings.

    When a sound link is terrible, has constant background noise or is echoing badly you would think somebody would be monitoring this and would correct it yet many times it goes on without any mention or change. 2 minutes ago one of their correspondents was talking about railways and there was a constant school playground type of racket going on all through his report.

    I wonder if he will see that the channel seems to be slowly drifting to the left. It’s as if they are trying to over compensate for where they started with their centre right position.

    That bloke going down on his knee to the blm for instance.
    It’s no good trying to say it’s nothing to do with blm and it’s just anti racist.

    The pressure is on to cancel ‘Freedom Day’ and the BBC’s comrades-in-arms at Sly News are doing their bit. The front page of its website has an article with the catchy title of ‘COVID-19: Cautionary tale from the Netherlands’ coronavirus unlocking – what lessons can the UK learn?’, with an even subtler subtitle of ‘Sky News looks at what lessons can learned after the Dutch saw their COVID-19 cases soar to unprecedented levels after unlocking, leading their prime minister to concede that coronavirus restrictions had been lifted too soon. The message is simple: the Netherlands have made matters infinitely worse and Britain is about to do the same – call it off now, Boris!

    To make their point, Sly News have lots of nice charts showing how infection rates are soaring, hospital admissions are rising, the rise in infections in young people etc. However, one metric is noticeable by its complete absence: the number of deaths. So allow me to help out by providing the number of reported Covid-19 deaths in the Netherlands for this month:
    July 1st – 3
    July 2nd – 7
    July 3rd – 1
    July 4th – 0
    July 5th – 1
    July 6th – 1
    July 7th – 2
    July 8th – 2
    July 9th – 0
    July 10th – 1
    July 11th – 3

    Now, the population is smaller than that of the UK, just under 18 million compared to nearly 70 million. Plus there is a lag on infections leading to hospitalisations and deaths. But even so, it’s pretty blatant why they’ve chosen not to give these statistics. And why their name of Sly News is so appropriate.
    P.S. sorry the link for the stats is so long.

      It’s obscene, the media in this country have lost all sense of perspective. You would think he had found a cure for cancer or was being made a saint. Anybody who hadn’t heard of him would think he’d died or been martyred for his cause.

      Hyperbole and bullshit from the mouths of opportunistic far-left morons, media moochers and “artists” and the local “kommunitee”, mainly gobshites who everyone avoids when they walk in to the local pub. All strings being pulled by an American PR company founded by a racist ex-drug dealer. Being lectured on racism by Trevor Sinclair, a convicted drunk driver who called the arresting officer “a white c##t”. You couldn’t make it up.

      Awful, just pathetic. I hope United sell him, I can’t be bothered with this any more. Nearly 50 years I’ve followed them, no more, this season will be a circus. We’ve just signed Sancho as well.

    The current headline on the DM is that the police have arrested a man who handed himself in for a racist tweet.
    It said “Dambuster dogs lost it for us” or words to that effect (n*****s lost it was what he put but I don’t want to be imprisoned so I’ve copied what the DM put)

    The police sent 3 officers to his home and searched it.
    They took away his laptop.

    It’s good to see that the police have so many spare officers.

    It follows that there must be hundreds available for crimes like murder (stabbings/machete’ings/acid attacks/mass grooming/gangbanging and all the other really serious crimes when they can spare so many on someone using a word that white people shouldn’t.

      The urinating protest guy handed himself in
      … the establishment stamped on him

      The flag burning, statue throwings BLM protesters
      did the opposite ..and got no punishment

    Oh this pro mask guy gets a pretty rapid response from Ofcom
    He’s a no one, not a blue-tick so why do Ofcom treat him so specially ?

    It seems the Good Lord is now weighing in to the BLM debate. And not on the side of the BBC, apparently.
