After what I’ve seen since Brexit, I’m having a lot of trouble having any sympathy about this.
Perhaps the world would be a better place if these people had a few more ethics about right and wrong and a few less about their own extremist left-wing ideology.
That headline is very misleading about the extent of the crimes by Abdul:
‘They included multiple counts of blackmail, disclosing private sexual films and photographs to cause distress, making and distributing indecent images of children, encouraging the sexual assault of children, sexually assaulting a boy, causing or inciting children to engage in sexual activity, fraud and possessing more than 65,000 indecent images of children.’
Note that description is from elsewhere. The BBC cut it down to:
‘His offences include possessing more than 65,000 indecent images of children as well as some of sexual assault, blackmail and disclosing private, sexual photographs.’
And how many words did this outrageous activity by ‘Abdul’ warrant from the BBC ?.
450. Just over a third as many as black people in Holland getting to change their slave names from 150 years ago for free.
Is there any wonder we are sick to the back teeth of the BBC and the Left ?. I’m sure their ideology has a good reason why they warp the truth so much. So did Hitler.

Lessons learned (or not) since 9/11
As Afghanistan is once more ruled by the movement that sheltered al-Qaeda, are we any wiser than we were on the morning of 11 September 2001? The so-called “War on Terror” led to the invasion of Afghanistan, then Iraq, to the rise of Isis and the proliferation of Iranian-backed militias across the Middle East, and the deaths of thousands of servicemen and women and many more civilians.
Terrorism has not been eliminated – every major European country has suffered attacks in recent years – but there have been successes too. To date, there has never been an attack approaching the scale of 9/11. Al-Qaeda’s bases in Afghanistan were destroyed, its leaders hunted down in Pakistan. The self-declared Isis caliphate that terrorised much of Syria and Iraq has been dismantled.
I believe it was Private Eye (or was it The Spectator?) that used to run a non-job of the week slot. Maybe they still do.
I’m sure this so-called position would be a more-then worthy contender.
Somewhere in an obscure bbc outpost, a chastened intern is reminded to try a bit harder.

Emma wins Sports Personality of the year. can he, she, or it tell Emma not to wear the cross because it may offend some.

Many societies throughout history have practised slavery, and Muslim societies were no exception.
It’s thought that as many people were enslaved in the Eastern slave trade as in the Atlantic slave trade.
It’s ironic that when the Atlantic slave trade was abolished the Eastern trade expanded, suggesting that for some Africans the abolition of the Atlantic trade didn’t lead to freedom, but merely changed their slave destination.

relates to Westerners: Guilty of Reading the News {atestoneinstitute.org 27sep2017}
‘…on 18 April 1930, the BBC’s news announcer had nothing to communicate. “There is no news,” was the script of the 20:45 news bulletin, before piano music was played for the rest of the 15-minute segment‘
This was the BBC’s nostalgic reflection on simpler times expressed recently in the wake of Theresa May’s annoucement of a snap General Election in April 2017 – OK, that was news and I’m sure if Ramsay MacDonald’s failing second Labour government had collapsed some fifteen months earlier than it did, in August 1931, then that would certainly have made the BBC’s contemporary definition of news.
In 2017 the BBC were fairly candid about how things had moved on news-wise: ‘These days, the BBC has more staff and more capacity than it did in 1930. But it also has a different definition of what the news is‘ – you can say that again. Which is a major factor in why Mr AsI junked his TV licence and sadly now never tunes into Radio 5 and especially not Radio 4.
The rest of the corporate media are not much better. But since I can’t tell you there’s no news today and return you to the Wagner opera Parsifal being performed at the Queen’s Hall in Langham Place, London – although, come to think of it, in these days of internet links I probably could – let’s not strain the moderator’s patience and instead delve in to see what purports to be news in our print press.
‘It’s ANT and DECades‘ chuckles the Daily Mail ‘as duo scoop top TV award for 20th year running’ – providing almost the very definition of our complaint “Not News!”
Awards, eh? In the much contested category of “someone said something” we have the formerly patriotic Times with: ‘Queen and her family are BLM supporters, royal insider claims‘ – and there was me thinking where the Royals are concerned the taking the knee went quite the other way around?
To the subcategory of “someone said something rude” where the Daily Mirror takes a hopeful punt (or should that be a duff penalty kick?) on retired footballer: ‘Rio Ferdinand heartbreak. My family’s racism torment. Star says those closest to him broken by online abuse‘ – now how did I guess this wasn’t some nasty name calling encountered at his local supermarket, some discrimination on a plane or train, or being shunned by neighbours over his garden wall? Of course it was online.
‘Nearly half of NHS staff not medically trained‘ (Telegraph) – no surprise revelation there.
‘Deadly toll of “remote” GPs. Coroner links deaths to lack of face-to-face appointments ++ But doctors vow: Phone and video calls are here to stay‘ (Mail) – this we already know. Having encountered those signs at the local NHS clinic warning “If you feel unwell please do not enter surgery”
The Guardian features actress and film director Karen Gillan who has gone from some typical female celeb angst in 2018 :”I’m living with a consistent, subtle homesickness” to ‘Hollywood action hero… female-led, John Wick-inspired franchise starter might be more of the same but it’s done with just about enough flair to pass the time‘ – how could the Gruan give it a thumbs down, it was female-led?
Admittedly I don’t understand feminist politics. I saw a sign the other day reading “free period products” and I thought it was an antiques sale.
Perhaps I should watch: ‘The return of Sex Education. TV’s funniest, smartest show about initimacy. Its stars and creator talk to ‘i’”- yes, but that’s not news, is it?
‘Commuters clash over mask rules‘ shouts the freebie Metro. But then rows back faster than an out of service bus past a stop at the end of a driver’s shift on a rainy day: ‘Traveller in mask as officer, perhaps exempt, stays mask-free on a London train‘ and ‘Passengers with and without face coverings share Tube carriage yesterday. Some may have medical reasons not to wear one‘ – please tell me this frontpage splash was a joke.

On Saturday America will be marking the twentieth anniversary of 9/11. The observances will be muted, because the world’s superpower managed to lose the war on terror so totally preposterously that it has made itself a global laughingstock. So instead I thought we’d revisit the summer of 2001 with a few columns of mine from the days before “the day the world changed”. https://www.steynonline.com/11681/what-we-were-talking-about
Ah, the White Man’s Burden, Millennium Edition: no matter how long ago the stiff-upper-lipped Brit scrammed out of Africa, it’s still his fault. Anti-racism, like the abolitionist movement, is a Western concept, always tinged with a bit of progressive self-loathing. But in Durban it became clear that anti-racism has shrivelled into the modern world’s most acceptable form of racism – anti-white. Its international evolution thus mirrors its development in the pace-setting Western jurisdictions that invented it.
The proportion of clinical staff who are professionally trained has declined from 55.5 per cent in 2013 to just 52.5 per cent now, meaning 47.5 per cent of staff have no medical qualifications.13 hours ago
Nearly half of all NHS staff have no medical qualifications
Recent visits to hospital prompts me to ask two questions:
a) Where are the men?
b) Where are the grey-haired?
Certainly not among the staff. The NHS has become young and female, meaning that we now have to train two to four times as many as in Doctor In The House days just to keep existing posts filled.
9am Yet another BBC prog that says #WhiteManBad #BlackPeopleAreVictims

The arrests were made under the national security law, which has a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
Police have accused Ms Chow of inciting subversion, her lawyers said.

To me it’s not that Mandela statue needs a warning
It’s that the Drake one didn’t
Everyone knows that the statue is commemorating POSITIVE SPIRITS of some occasions .. eg standing up to the Armada
Yet the same applies to Mandela : that at the time of handover to majority rule, he went for reconciliation not vengeance ..and it was other people that later did things against that spirit.
In another setting you could talk about the bad things that Drake and Mandela did at earlier points in their lives.

Well it’s a sombre anniversary tomorrow, so i thought I’d see how the BBC were handling it. There is a short video of “How did the world respond?” On comes the inevitable talking hijab. “I notice open hostility to muslims now, i don’t feel welcome in this country”. Good. How I remember it is the BBC showing Palestinians firing into the air and dancing for joy. You don’t have to go to Gaza now, any UK inner city will be a fair replica.
I bought an internet radio a while back, as LBC is woker than a woke thing on wokeday. I’ve taken to listening to cheesy Southern country stations, particularly WQSB in Boaz, Ala. They play the stars and stripes in full at noon every day (6pm our time). They had an advert earlier, something like “Hanks Steakhouse, best ribeye in the state VETERAN OWNED”. Obviously the station didn’t add this subtext, but they aired the advertisment without comment, proudly probably.

Enders Analysis released this research on 10 September 2021.
The rumoured BBC licence fee settlement (with rises below inflation) may result in a real term annual shortfall of c. £481 million by 2027
The worst* mooted scenarios of decriminalisation or absolute cuts to the licence fee have been avoided (for now)
A smaller BBC will have knock-on effects in the wider TV ecology, with fewer economic benefits flowing to the creative economy and a dilution of local content**
The three giveaways to something being wrong about the ‘reflection’ in the photograph are:
1. The mask under the chin of the girl is slightly different to reality
2. Her companion has her hand to her forehead in the virtual image, the reflection
3. The man in the blue shirt and dark trousers reflected in the shop window is in a completely different position to the real image.
How many did you spot? No doubt the BBC paid Getty their usual fee out of the bounteous pot that the Licence Fee payer gives the BBC and that includes poor young people on minimum wage and those on average wage. Licence Fee-payers paid for a ‘doctored’ fake photo!
ITV local news goes into more details on the Azeem Rafiq report
#1Today it’s only the conclusions released, not the full report.
#2 The investigation was not a full win for him
It upheld 7 of his 40 complaints
@AzeemRafiq30 was the victim of “racial harassment” and “bullying” during his time with the club. Although majority of allegations are not upheld due to “insufficient evidence.”
#3 The conclusion was that the club could have done more to accommodate Muslims, but
“The panels unanimous view was that is was unable to draw definitive wider conclusions on institutional racism at YCCC..based predominantly on the experiences of Azeem Rafiq.” “one individual”
”
That they had touched on incidents with other individuals, but that there was still not enough evidence to draw conclusions to say there was institutional racism or not.
Institutional racism is a readily accepted catchphrase that can be employed by anyone with a grudge whether well-founded or not because it’s bloody illegal now to object to the accusation.
Muslims are taught that lying to achieve their objectives against the kaffir is not only allowed but encouraged means their is no real foundation for any perceived grievance whatsoever and the sooner we all realise that and take protective measures the better our future security depends on it.

‘Sadistic’ abuser Abdul Elahi targeted 2,000 victims online
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-birmingham-57386159
That headline is very misleading about the extent of the crimes by Abdul:
‘They included multiple counts of blackmail, disclosing private sexual films and photographs to cause distress, making and distributing indecent images of children, encouraging the sexual assault of children, sexually assaulting a boy, causing or inciting children to engage in sexual activity, fraud and possessing more than 65,000 indecent images of children.’
Note that description is from elsewhere. The BBC cut it down to:
‘His offences include possessing more than 65,000 indecent images of children as well as some of sexual assault, blackmail and disclosing private, sexual photographs.’
And how many words did this outrageous activity by ‘Abdul’ warrant from the BBC ?.
450. Just over a third as many as black people in Holland getting to change their slave names from 150 years ago for free.

Many societies throughout history have practised slavery, and Muslim societies were no exception.
It’s thought that as many people were enslaved in the Eastern slave trade as in the Atlantic slave trade.
It’s ironic that when the Atlantic slave trade was abolished the Eastern trade expanded, suggesting that for some Africans the abolition of the Atlantic trade didn’t lead to freedom, but merely changed their slave destination.

‘…on 18 April 1930, the BBC’s news announcer had nothing to communicate. “There is no news,” was the script of the 20:45 news bulletin, before piano music was played for the rest of the 15-minute segment‘
This was the BBC’s nostalgic reflection on simpler times expressed recently in the wake of Theresa May’s annoucement of a snap General Election in April 2017 – OK, that was news and I’m sure if Ramsay MacDonald’s failing second Labour government had collapsed some fifteen months earlier than it did, in August 1931, then that would certainly have made the BBC’s contemporary definition of news.
In 2017 the BBC were fairly candid about how things had moved on news-wise: ‘These days, the BBC has more staff and more capacity than it did in 1930. But it also has a different definition of what the news is‘ – you can say that again. Which is a major factor in why Mr AsI junked his TV licence and sadly now never tunes into Radio 5 and especially not Radio 4.
The rest of the corporate media are not much better. But since I can’t tell you there’s no news today and return you to the Wagner opera Parsifal being performed at the Queen’s Hall in Langham Place, London – although, come to think of it, in these days of internet links I probably could – let’s not strain the moderator’s patience and instead delve in to see what purports to be news in our print press.
‘It’s ANT and DECades‘ chuckles the Daily Mail ‘as duo scoop top TV award for 20th year running’ – providing almost the very definition of our complaint “Not News!”
Awards, eh? In the much contested category of “someone said something” we have the formerly patriotic Times with: ‘Queen and her family are BLM supporters, royal insider claims‘ – and there was me thinking where the Royals are concerned the taking the knee went quite the other way around?
To the subcategory of “someone said something rude” where the Daily Mirror takes a hopeful punt (or should that be a duff penalty kick?) on retired footballer: ‘Rio Ferdinand heartbreak. My family’s racism torment. Star says those closest to him broken by online abuse‘ – now how did I guess this wasn’t some nasty name calling encountered at his local supermarket, some discrimination on a plane or train, or being shunned by neighbours over his garden wall? Of course it was online.
‘Nearly half of NHS staff not medically trained‘ (Telegraph) – no surprise revelation there.
‘Deadly toll of “remote” GPs. Coroner links deaths to lack of face-to-face appointments ++ But doctors vow: Phone and video calls are here to stay‘ (Mail) – this we already know. Having encountered those signs at the local NHS clinic warning “If you feel unwell please do not enter surgery”
The Guardian features actress and film director Karen Gillan who has gone from some typical female celeb angst in 2018 :”I’m living with a consistent, subtle homesickness” to ‘Hollywood action hero… female-led, John Wick-inspired franchise starter might be more of the same but it’s done with just about enough flair to pass the time‘ – how could the Gruan give it a thumbs down, it was female-led?
Admittedly I don’t understand feminist politics. I saw a sign the other day reading “free period products” and I thought it was an antiques sale.
Perhaps I should watch: ‘The return of Sex Education. TV’s funniest, smartest show about initimacy. Its stars and creator talk to ‘i’”- yes, but that’s not news, is it?
‘Commuters clash over mask rules‘ shouts the freebie Metro. But then rows back faster than an out of service bus past a stop at the end of a driver’s shift on a rainy day: ‘Traveller in mask as officer, perhaps exempt, stays mask-free on a London train‘ and ‘Passengers with and without face coverings share Tube carriage yesterday. Some may have medical reasons not to wear one‘ – please tell me this frontpage splash was a joke.

On Saturday America will be marking the twentieth anniversary of 9/11. The observances will be muted, because the world’s superpower managed to lose the war on terror so totally preposterously that it has made itself a global laughingstock. So instead I thought we’d revisit the summer of 2001 with a few columns of mine from the days before “the day the world changed”.

Ah, the White Man’s Burden, Millennium Edition: no matter how long ago the stiff-upper-lipped Brit scrammed out of Africa, it’s still his fault. Anti-racism, like the abolitionist movement, is a Western concept, always tinged with a bit of progressive self-loathing. But in Durban it became clear that anti-racism has shrivelled into the modern world’s most acceptable form of racism – anti-white. Its international evolution thus mirrors its development in the pace-setting Western jurisdictions that invented it.

Officers were later seen carrying exhibits out of the June 4 Museum.
Four members of the group that ran the museum, the Hong Kong Alliance, were detained on Wednesday – including prominent pro-democracy activist and barrister Chow Hang Tung.
The arrests were made under the national security law, which has a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
Police have accused Ms Chow of inciting subversion, her lawyers said.

It was known backroom staff had Covid , but play was expected to continue.

To me one reason why the report was delayed, was cos Yorkshire were trying to reach a financial settlement with Rafiq.
Aug 19th : ESPNcricinfo also understands Yorkshire offered Rafiq a large financial settlement – believed to be in excess of £100,000 – some months ago.
He declined as it would have required him to sign a non-disclosure agreement and brought no public acknowledgement of a requirement to change from the club.

Emily Pankhurst & the Suffragettes – violent terrorists that put back women’s rights

Surely there are principles
like “Let he who is without sin cast the first stone”
To me it’s not that Mandela statue needs a warning
It’s that the Drake one didn’t
Everyone knows that the statue is commemorating POSITIVE SPIRITS of some occasions .. eg standing up to the Armada
Yet the same applies to Mandela : that at the time of handover to majority rule, he went for reconciliation not vengeance ..and it was other people that later did things against that spirit.
In another setting you could talk about the bad things that Drake and Mandela did at earlier points in their lives.

Well it’s a sombre anniversary tomorrow, so i thought I’d see how the BBC were handling it. There is a short video of “How did the world respond?” On comes the inevitable talking hijab. “I notice open hostility to muslims now, i don’t feel welcome in this country”. Good. How I remember it is the BBC showing Palestinians firing into the air and dancing for joy. You don’t have to go to Gaza now, any UK inner city will be a fair replica.
I bought an internet radio a while back, as LBC is woker than a woke thing on wokeday. I’ve taken to listening to cheesy Southern country stations, particularly WQSB in Boaz, Ala. They play the stars and stripes in full at noon every day (6pm our time). They had an advert earlier, something like “Hanks Steakhouse, best ribeye in the state VETERAN OWNED”. Obviously the station didn’t add this subtext, but they aired the advertisment without comment, proudly probably.

#1Today it’s only the conclusions released, not the full report.
#2 The investigation was not a full win for him
It upheld 7 of his 40 complaints
@AzeemRafiq30 was the victim of “racial harassment” and “bullying” during his time with the club. Although majority of allegations are not upheld due to “insufficient evidence.”
#3 The conclusion was that the club could have done more to accommodate Muslims, but
“The panels unanimous view was that is was
unable to draw definitive wider conclusions on institutional racism at YCCC..based predominantly on the experiences of Azeem Rafiq.” “one individual”
”
That they had touched on incidents with other individuals, but that there was still not enough evidence to draw conclusions to say there was institutional racism or not.

Institutional racism is a readily accepted catchphrase that can be employed by anyone with a grudge whether well-founded or not because it’s bloody illegal now to object to the accusation.
