Terrorism in the UK: number of suspects tops 40,000 after MI5 rechecks its list

Germany is betting that the answer is yes.
The country has long offered migrants and asylum seekers financial incentives to leave its shores, and until 28 February 2018 it’s prepared to pay out extra.
Individuals will get €1,000 and families up to €3,000 (£2,650; $3,540) to cover rent or resettlement costs back in their home countries – things like basic kitchen or bathroom facilities.
Critics say Angela Merkel’s government is trying to bribe its way out of a tricky situation, but supporters say the scheme will help sad, exhausted migrants who just want to go home.
Germany is by no means first to this approach. So where else has done it – and is it morally wrong?

People should use the proper names for government departments
– The Illegal Immigration & Modern Slavery Facilitation Service
– The Crime Facilitation Service
This is not completely true, decisions are made by the Home Office quite quickly what takes the time and the money is the greedy weasels and judges who in over 80% of cases decide the Home Office made the correct decision in the first place.
There’s an easy solution. Cut out the greedy weasels like we used to and rely on the Home Office getting it right. If someone wants to appeal to the law, let them fund it themselves.
If we cannot cut out the greedy weasels then the UK should consider leaving the asylum treaty which is clearly being abused.
There is another issue which they aren’t talking about though, and that is countries which refuse to take their nationals back such as Israel and Iraq. These countries should be charged the cost of supporting their nationals in the UK.
And then there is the length of time some of them take preparing paperwork to allow them to re-enter their own country. This can add even more time to the process.

BBC More Or Less
#1 Yet again debunking a BBC ‘s own wacky claim
“yeh 129 billion single-use face masks are used every day around the world”
Nope you nutters , that is 17 per/day per person
BBC admitted they meant “per month” not per day
Even so that is wrong cos the source had taken an estimate for a particular circumstance in Italy and extrapolated.
#2 If benefit is cut by £20 is that two hours work like a tory says or 9 hours per week like Labour say ?
Basically benefit has a taped scale cut off
so if you earn £1 more the government keeps 63p
or £6.30 from £10
so for some people if they earn £10 more they only keep £3.70
so after £54 they’ve got 320 taken home
So that could be 5.5 hours at £10/hour
but some people earn more (some less if young etc,)
and a few cases are exempt from the cut off rule
so it could be just 2 hours
and some people earn more that £10/hour
#3 Do women have a lot more periods than in history ?
Basically if women get pregnant a lot they have less periods cos they stop until the end of breast feeding.
So today’s women have more periods.
But poor diet and medicines can reduce the number of periods etc.
That false BBC claim
That Wales page still hasn’t been corrected.
Even though the page has open comments
and people had pointed out that its fake news.

How on earth do you decide who and what to believe these days? We know that truth is suppressed by the MSM .
For instance it is indisputable thatthe Covid virus was genetically engineered in Wuhan and did not infect humans directly from bats. Covid has already killed millions world wide directly and indirectly and cost trillions of pounds , so this is one of the biggest stories for decades, yet the MSM knowingly lies about it and many so called scientists help them by lying through their teeth.
We know that much of the hype about the impact and cause of climate change is very likely exaggerated and that the costs of the proposals to combat it are unsupportable but the MSM suppresses this and again many so called scientists , but by no means all, help them to do it.
We know that Islamisation of the West is a real danger but again the MSM suppresses the truth and attacks anyone who tries to tell it.
These are three critical issues which will shape the current century but the MSM denies and suppresses the truth on all of them. And if they do this on these three issues we can be certain that they are doing it on many others. The conclusion is clear don’t believe a word the MSM say and very sadly don’t believe the scientists either!
Relax – we have learnt from history …..
More than 3,000 mainstream biologists were dismissed or imprisoned, and numerous scientists were executed in the campaign to suppress scientific opponents. The president of the Agriculture Academy, Nikolai Vavilov, who had been Lysenko’s mentor, but later denounced him, was sent to prison and died there, while Soviet genetics research was effectively destroyed. Research and teaching in the fields of neurophysiology, cell biology, and many other biological disciplines were harmed or banned.
Other countries of the Eastern Bloc including the People’s Republic of Poland, the Republic of Czechoslovakia, and the German Democratic Republic accepted Lysenkoism as the official “new biology”, to varying degrees, as did the People’s Republic of China for some years.

One in four NHS nurses are obese, study reveals
Obesity rates among nurses and care workers higher than people in non-health and care related jobs
Alex Matthews-King
Health Correspondent
Tuesday 05 December 2017
Doesn’t surprise me in the slightest ! When the drug reps visited and brought in loads of food, you’d get killed in the rush by nurses and the like fighting to get to the stuff. You’d think they hadn’t eaten for a month the way they carried on. Most wore uniforms that fit where they touched, – obese is a polite word – FAT is what they are.
MI5 is aware of more than 43,000 people who pose a potential terrorist threat to the UK, according to a government report — almost twice the number of terror suspects previously disclosed.
After the 2017 attacks at London Bridge and Manchester Arena, it was revealed that MI5 had about 23,000 current and historic suspects on its radar.

Netflix has bought the rights to Roald Dahl’s classic children’s books from the author’s family.
The deal means the streaming giant will own creations like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The BFG.

Racism time at the BBC.
On Pointless, BBC1 at 1715, there is a round featuring the 100 Greatest Black Britons.
Disregarding the fact that the category is so thin that Stormzy was an acceptable answer, can you imagine how the roof would fall in if there was a 100 Greatest White Britons feature on the BBC?
Which of course there won’t be
Featuring such contemporary ‘musicians’ as….errr……Isaac Newton, Charles Darwin, IK Brunel, Will Shakespeare, Churchill, and many other unknowns.
To be fair Humza Yousaf would go ballistic…
“Number One, whhite, Number Two, whhite,.. Number One Hundred, whhite!”
On the other hand June Sarpong might see her salary as being £2,670 ‘compensation’ for each person that offends her on the list!
“…a round featuring the 100 Greatest Black Britons.”
Pointless, eh?
Hey Beeb, this is what principled, ethical, conviction journalism sounds like. You should try it some time.

Local ITV news today’s national item injected into the prog.
We already had a local item promoting vaccines
even though “our area has above average vaccination rate”
Well, well, well. Anyone heard this ? it was tucked away in a corner of my D/Express.
“The English Touring Opera Company has sacked 14 WHITE musicians. The reason given is that it wishes to ‘prioritise increased diversity in line with firm guidance from the Arts Council”
Never mind the quality, look at the colour!
I had. But it has only just sunk in how this is even possibly legal.
The BBC excluding a race from new hires is bad enough, but to sack those in role to make way for another seems…. too unique.
Yes Simon Webb covered it last week.
Bristles, according to GBNews these orchestra players were freelance but had been booked as and when required. They have been told they are no longer required.
In music for example, the BBC just loves female composers. There’s weren’t many in times gone by so the BBC has to commission some new music by women and most is awful.
I want the best person for any job not a person chosen by the colour of their skin.
Kashmiri Ramblers is the top on ITV local news now
Only yesterday or Monday the item was the black women’s walking group.
The also had a Green item
“It’s part of drives to reduce exposure to vehicle emissions
The roads around several primary schools in Barnsley have been temporarily closed off as part of a drive to encourage families to swap cars for walking or cycling.
Today, 22 September, and tomorrow, ..”
‘Encourage’?…..don’t they really mean….make?!
Nothing is stopping them …
There’s never been any barriers. I’ve spent plenty of time walking the South Downs, Cumbria, Hampshire etc. in my life and seen many non-whites using the space. Never witnessed any racism, discrimination or exclusion. By anybody. Just ordinary people going about their lawful, Earthly business and enjoying the fresh air, as is their right.
The problem is all inside the tiny, brainwashed minds of a minority of hypocrites and genuine racists.
The last section of this is about diversity in the countryside. Very funny.

‘Raising awareness’ likely depends on one of that Jon Snow traumatising collection of white wokesters having a direct line to the bbc news desk.
BBC local news.. Hull climate murals are on the screen
the item is question is whether such supported street art is encouraging graffiti vandalism
.. they switched to shots of masses of walls with rough tagging etc.

Shocking news from Channel 4 News – a mention of the ultimate taboo – the state of the false president .
In a piece by Gary Gibbon in America with nut nut – he showed the end of the press conference between nut nut and sleepy Joe —-
The American press tried to ask their president open questions ( again ) only to be herded out of the White House ( again ) and
Gary Gibbon mentioned there are questions about the US presidents’ “ powers “
So – the language of the MSM is to question ‘powers ‘ – not yet to the ‘mental health ‘ or the obvious Dementia …..
After all this time – the truth is so slowly coming out . There might even be a question about the theft of the US election one day ….
YOUR COMPLAINT:
President Trump’s 100 Days President Biden’s 0 Day
Dear Winston Smith in the Records Department of the Ministry of Truth,
You covered President Trump’s 100 Days and then produced a Beyond 100 Days to hold power to account.
Why have you not done the same for President Biden to hold power to account?

David Starkey is on GBnews
“Olusoga is NOT a historian he is TV researcher”
Nick Cave ‘Cancel Culture is the opposite of mercy’
Starkey “About 300,000 black slaves were kidnapped to America.
Yet about 20million black slaves were kidnapped to Constantinople
Difference is that no descendants of the 20million survive.
.. the males were castrated etc.’
Nice to see HMS Starkey finally on GBNews – I recall a discussion on this site before GBNews started of the ‘banned list ‘ maybe getting exposure again .

Is someone making a lot of money from this ? I smell a rat !
Just asking .
I’ve just seen David Starkey on Brazier/GB News and he was excellent.
I could listen to him all night.
One of the things (facts) he mentioned was regarding slavery.
Did you know that there were 300,000 slaves taken to the Americas from Africa and their descendants are generally doing well but there were 20 million slaves taken from Africa to the Middle East/Arabs and there are no descendants as the men were all castrated and any babies were killed at birth.
Just as the British part in ending slavery and the 30 thousand sailors who lost their lives stopping it has also been hushed up.
Colin brazier did a nice piece about the difference between GBNews and the BBC – it was retweeted by Lord Farage …
The back journalist Keith Richburg, after experiencing the horrors of life in Africa for a few years, wrote an article in which he expressed his gratitude that his ancestors had been taken to America as slaves.
Naturally, liberals in America and UK swooned in horror.

Did Boris pull a fast one over Biden?
At the end of their meeting the PM invited questions from the press.
This produced a pandemonium of shouted questions and, once again, highlighted the Chief Imbecile’s inability to respond to unscripted questions from the press, who were unceremoniously shouted down and ushered out by his minders.
Whether intended or not, it put Sleepy Joe in a bad light, and he will no doubt retaliate by putting the UK even further back in the queue for a trade deal.
The BBC choose to ignore the whole fiasco, keeping up the pretence that Sleepy Joe is compos mentis, when he manifestly is not.

Douglas Murray investigates the above phenomenon in The Strange Death of Europe.
It’s also known as The Great Replacement.
Wikipedia patronisingly dismisses it as a far-right conspiracy theory. Perhaps a beeboid wrote the article.
“The Great Replacement (French: Grand Remplacement), also known as the replacement theory, is a white nationalist conspiracy theory which states that, with the complicity or cooperation of “replacist” elites, the white French population—as well as white European populations at large—is being demographically and culturally replaced with non-European peoples—specifically Arab, Berber, South Asian and sub-Saharan Muslim populations—through mass migration, demographic growth and a European drop in the birth rate. This theory is popular among anti-migrant far-right movements in the West.”

“Boris Johnson: Humanity is reaching a turning point on climate change”

How long will the Conservatives leave Kermit the Frog in charge of the country before they go to the wall? We are in dire need of a new political party.
More like Humpty-Dumpty Johnson. However he will fall at the next election!
He has become a clone of both the mad Prince of Wales and Eat my Attenborough.
Most people have had a bellyfull of the twisted Climate half truths being peddled by Marxist professors that he is now hanging onto the coat tails of.
The end-game is that highly paid intellectuals will live in large houses with multiple charging points and the great unwashed will have their personal transport forcibly removed to put them on crowded buses or shank’s pony. It is the key part if the plan for the climate lobby and COVID has proved that they can now enforce it and get away with it. “For the greater good” no-less!

It was Lewis Carroll’s nursery rhyme character Humpty Dumpty who told Alice: “When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean” and he said it in rather a scornful tone, mind you.
So it is that the BBC this morning tells us: ‘Boris Johnson says world leaders must take responsibility for climate destruction’
Have Putin, Bolsonaro, Xi Jinping and Modi, in addition to their other varied transgressions against western liberalism, destroyed the world’s climate?
Or are they the present Arsenal back four – I gave up on following football, what with VAR and taking the knee?
Imagine a world with no climate? Is that easy, if you try? John and Yoko might have found it a doddle with sufficient chemical psychedelic stimulents, but I’m struggling.
Lewis Carroll’s characters derrived much of their logic-bending eccentricity and ludicrous antics from his observation of fellow dons at Oxford University.
And so it is that even today it is from within those sort of rarified portals (albeit we’re given to understand mostly originating in Southern California) that are the seed bed from which comes the push for pointless language-bending in the real world: ‘”Batsman” clean bowled by equality push’ (The Times) ‘Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), the custodian of the laws of cricket, has said that “batter” should be used to refer to men and women at the wicket’
And what, one wonders, will my cod and chips and Scots Mars Bars come fried in?
Personally, I don’t see the need. Batsman, Batwoman… it worked for DC Comics.
Where does this end? When we’re all at sea? At sea we have the helmsman. What’s the future of that word? Helmer? Come to think of it we should be OK there until the 2200s, when Star Trek was set, with Mr Sulu holding the post of helmsman on the Star Ship Enterprise.

BBC webshite full on (and I mean FULL ON) outrage over the Haitian immigrants being rounded up and repatriated by the US.
Angry scenes at Haiti airport as deported migrants arrive

Grim echoes of history in images of Haitians at US-Mexico border
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-58654351
A number of points come to mind:
1. These people were attempting to illegally gain entrance to another country, they weren’t officially invited to the country, apparently they weren’t wanted by the majority of the population there, and they didn’t have any legal right to enter that country. That technically makes it an ‘invasion’ I believe?
2. Those scenes are indeed reminiscent of those of an earlier era, with white men on horseback rounding up black slaves, but that doesn’t mean they depict the same thing. For a start, the black slaves were brought to the US (against their will), and the ‘cowboys’ pictured were attempting to stop them escaping. The (also black) Haitians came to the US of their own accord, and the ‘cowboys’ were attempting to remove them and send them back to their home. Almost complete opposites. I also think it’s reasonable to assume the US authorities politely asked them to go home first, and decided to round them up and deport them only as a last resort?
3. Those Haitians on the runway in Haiti are all dressed in matching, brand new white t-shirts and shorts, which were presumably given to them by the US authorities that were repatriating them. They aren’t ‘scrabbling to get back on the plane’ in the video clip, they’re collecting these new clothes – that’s obvious if you watch. They don’t actually appear upset, or annoyed, which is what the reporter claims, there is no actual photographic, or video evidence of that. Even if they were upset, or annoyed, it doesn’t make the repatriation wrong, does it? I’m upset and annoyed when my bills go up, but other than me, who cares, and will it change anything?
4. The vast majority of people everywhere in the world (including, I’m sure in Haiti) would do exactly the same if a mass of people attempted to illegally enter their country. Of course, in many countries they would round them up and give them a good beating to put them off trying again, or even just shoot them and pile them in a mass grave. The US is doing what most would, just in a rather more civilised and decent fashion and is surely to be lauded for their restraint and humanity?

Angela Merkel: What will Germans miss about the chancellor?
Angela Merkel: What will Germans miss about the chancellor?
Close
Germans are preparing to say “auf wiedersehen” to Angela Merkel, whose 16 years as chancellor will come to an end after the parliamentary elections this Sunday.
BBC Europe editor Katya Adler has been in her role since 2014, but began reporting on Mrs Merkel long before then.
How does she feel about saying goodbye to a woman who loomed so large in global politics – through the migrant crisis, the Eurozone crisis and the Covid pandemic?
What will Germans miss about Mrs Merkel and what hopes do they have for their next government after the elections?
Katya sets off on a road trip around Germany to find out.

All because The Green Muppets are running the country .
Who voted for these policies? ……………
Food shortages at the same time as 18 thousand people invading the country waiting to be fed.
Housing shortages while illegals are being housed in 4 Star Hotels.
Road Blocks while the police aid and abet .
Kids being forced to be vaccinated .
Black lives matter , more than the rest.
An unfettered woke agenda in the media while our own heritage is being allowed to be trashed.
Time for a change , time for a new government?
Clap harder, faster, longer.
Tafffman,
Personally, I think the nonsense has gone too far. Its irreversible on its downward trajectory. We all reap what we sow. Perhaps the public should experience what is coming and live with it as that’s what they aided and abetted with their complacency.
We have and still do witness a massive consistent effort to disrupt and defeat, “The West”. And it has worked. Game, set and match. Whoever and whatever is behind this success demands accolade: How to defeat millions with just a well placed handful making a lot of noise and to exploit the rules and laws of their enemy. Or create/influence organisations to change laws (Stonewall).
Notice how the blacks and asians have ensconced themselves into positions of power or influence. Surreptitiously, quite openly. People vote(d) for them. Then, they set about closing the door behind themselves: Calls of “racism” etc, at the drop of a hat to shut up opponents simply to insulate themselves (Lammy/Abbot).
If I’m not mistaken, any tardy fightback in the war, (for that’s what it is) needs a leader to emerge and fall behind. An emblem if you will. In the US its called ‘Trumpism’. But I suspect even he, if honest, would openly admit find it will be impossible to turn things round. It is now too ingrained for generations. Here in the UK? ……………….
Say no more.
My Dad (WW2 Veteran) always said this country would be destroyed by those within.

Something tells me that “world leaders” are not listening and are not going to listen.
