    BBC local news
    They have 2 types of item
    : A news report, these are simple
    : A PR Feature these are carefully. rafted with background music, video effects, archive footage.

    Tonight’s PR features were
    #1 John Prescott at COP26, He had a stroke 2 years ago, so I can’t understand his speaking.

    #2 Local school children who went to COP
    All they did was put teachers commuting in a spreadsheet, add up the CO2 and tell them to use bikes.

      Mornin,
      Apologies if I’ve missed the joke here, or if others have spotted it, but “We have the choice between a habitable planet and an inhabitable one”?
      So the choices are :-
      a) A planet we can live on, and –
      b) A planet we can live on

      I’m pleased that an uninhabitable planet isn’t on the list.

    Headline: ‘Special forces hid evidence of Afghan killings’

    Body text: ‘UK Special Forces officers suspected their men were killing unarmed Afghans who posed no threat.’

    So they are alleged to have done it. The headline is absolutely misleading.

    No surprise it is written by someone from ‘BBC Panorama’ who did a full ‘investigation’ in 2019. No doubt another where the desired conclusion was decided at the start then an hour spent just showing anything they could find which might support it, however tenuous.

    What a shame they don’t care about what the Muslim fanatics do over here to INNOCENT people enough to do a few episodes on them.

    Meanwhile the 1200 people who arrived in boats in the last 2 days story is nowhere to be seen.

    No wonder Western civilisation is falling apart with quislings like the BBC doing everything they can to facilitate it.

    Channel 4 running a feature: “How do we tell disabled people and people with mental disabilities about the dangers and horrors of Climate Change?”

    Well C4 you have three options the way I see it.

    1. Pump it into them in order to increase their anxiety for no real benefit to them, making their mental situation even worse.

    2. Wait until the WHO have the means and the green light to “remove” them from society thus getting rid of their problem.

    3. Don’t pump anything at them and allow them to enjoy their life as best they can.

    Of course the aim of the article is little to do with these unfortunate people, it’s aimed at the rest to make them feel they are responsible and therefore guilty as charged and therefore accept the “Great Reset” that they are actually planning.

    That’s how they operate. I have nothing but disgust for the weevils.

    ITV local news. Last night they pushed COP heavily
    Tonight’s Climate sermon was different ‘fighting climate change is vital and Lincoln University are leading the way with agricultural robots”
    Hmm the link here is tenuious. Agricultural robots are not about climate change, they might reduce bit of crop wastage, but the product shown was strawberries and that is a luxury crop rather than vital food source.
    Though of course if scientists want a research grant these days, they have to add Climate Change to the title.

    I think that was the only climate item tonight.

      We have Leon Hawthrone – a CNN anchor, Kirsty Lang – a BBC radio 4 presenter and Sharan Dhaliwal who writes about mental health for i, Huffington Post and the Guardian and is the Director of Middlesex Pride and creator of Oh Queer Cupid, a queer speed dating and comedy night..

      I fully expect all the others are of similar stock.

    US Olympian Sunisa Lee ‘pepper sprayed in racist attack’
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-59257006

    The single quotes in BBC headlines have become their standard way of deliberately attempting to mislead without accountability.

    She got some spray on the arm as a car drove past with people hurling abuse from inside.

    Interestingly – despite her getting a good look at these men – they are not described. Because – as the Guardian told me – you can’t fight racism with more racism.

    Which is interesting because that is EXACTLY what they and the BBC are doing. Just as they are fighting sexism with more sexism.

      As for all the Companies falling over themselves to be green supporters I am reminded of the 1960’s teenage quip.

      “Be there or be Square!”

      Having spent the last few months unsubscribing from every Company boasting to me about how inclusive and diverse they are, I am now doing it all over again with the Global Warming bandwagonners, and that has just included my Bank which I have moved from a cuddly sounding UK setup (blue logo) who want to tell me all the time how right-on they are and how they won’t support baddy companies to a Hong Kong one (Black and white logo) who just want to look after my cash and give me great service. Unlike my old bank they answer the phone with a human every time I call without me having to go and make a cup of tea while their answering machine blathers away!

      I think this sort of direct action if taken by enough of us would prove to be the best way to cut these idiots down to size and bring them back to Earth.

    After all our protection and indeed celebration – plus the enormous cash injections – we begin to worry that our NHS is a bit… rubbish. This we sensed. Now we realise our NHS – just like our Meghan – tells a few porkies when it suits.

    And yet our media – unquestioningly – still worship at the holy altar and accept the holy writ.

    999 calls crisis… ambulance service in meltdown as it tackles record 1m incidents in a month‘ (Metro) – that’ll be because people feel sick and they now know GP’s won’t answer their phones.

    Stark reality behind 5.8m NHS backlog‘ (Daily Express) – that’ll be because the NHS is still fixated on covid to the exclusion of all other conditions… as, apparently, are our media: ‘Anyone still hesistant about getting Covid jabs must read our graphic account of the daily battles faced by front line health workers‘ – or so the Express implores its readers – absolutely on message.

    But are we to trust the NHS when it claims it is still overwhelmed with covid? Do we believe it ever was?

    The NHS is running hot…We have had fourteen times the number of people in hospital with Covid than we saw this time last year” (Amanda Pritchard, NHS England CEO, 8 November 2021)

    As reported by ITV News: ”NHS is running hot,’ says head of NHS England ITV later “clarified” Ms Pritchard’s claims: ‘Earlier Pritchard said Covid cases were 14 times higher than this time last year. NHS England later clarified she was referring to the most recently published statistics in August

    So Doc, tell me straight, I can take it. On the basis of these terrible results of my tests and X-Rays and scans, you’ve just told me about… how long have I got?

    Well, Sir, there’s no need to take these test results I gave you literally. Let me “clarify”, I was referring to some recent-ish test results back in August… even though we’re writing up your chart every day and that shows completely different actual test results… and to be honest, we just said all that to encourage you to get your covid jab, tout suite

    Full Fact is a British charity, based in London, which checks and corrects facts reported in the news:

    Covid-19 hospitalisations are below last year, not 14 times higher as NHS CEO claimed.

    Ms Pritchard’s comments were reported by a number of news outlets including Sky News, ITV News and the i, but it is not true

    And finally – that slightly jokey news report at the end… ‘Exclusive PM ignores NHS plea‘ (Daily Mirror) – to be honest, I think I’ll be taking their pleas with a pinch of salt from now on.

    He was asked to keep mask on in hospital 3 times‘ – whether Bojo is your cup of tea or not we do recall he’s already had a bad dose of the lurgy, our limited medical knowledge tells us he ought to be fairly immune on that basis. He’s been double jabbed and we assume, since he’s over 50 and has urged us over-50s to get another one, he’s also had the booster.

    The Mirror frets: ‘Can’t he just play by the rules like the rest of us?‘ – assuming of course the Mirror speaks for us all?

    Surely the NHS – and even our left-leaning media – have to realise that as much as they’ve been enjoying it, at some point, this has to end.

    Climate change
    Evidence has shown that Earth’s temperature is rising due to an increase in greenhouse gases. This has created and will continue to create, a number of negative effects.

    Climate change and global warming
    The global climate has been changing since time began and will continue to change into the future. The Earth’s temperature has fluctuated in the last few hundred years. However, since around 1950 there has been a dramatic increase in global temperatures. This increase is known as global warming.

    Ongoing temperature recordings using thermometers have shown a clear warming of the Earth’s temperature over the past few decades. By using this data, scientists have found that the Earth’s average surface air temperature has increased by around 1°C since the year 1900. As of 2021, the period between 2010 and 2020 was the warmest 10-year period on record, with 2016 and 2020 being the warmest years since records began.

      The conversation that exists around climate change often centres on white, middle class voices. Is that fair?

    I would prefer something like 5 or 6 degrees.
    It’s quite chilly outside and some decent warm weather would be appreciated.
    I seem to remember childhood summers swimming in the sea yet now it’s too cold to swim in.
    Our summers seem to be a few warm days a couple of times a year.

    So, come on then and do your bit to get a decent rise in the temperature instead of a piddling 1 degree.

      The climate isn’t going to be governed Canute-like by the likes of us. It’ll continue doing what it has been doing ever since there’s been a climate. And there’s no universal temperature, either. Some areas will be cooler, some warmer. What IS certain is that as it is a cyclical process, depending upon the sun, and the earth’s precession, warm periods will be followed by cold periods periodically. We are coming to the end of the current warm period (The Holocene), and the previous interglacial (The Eemian) was warmer than this one. The “scientists” almost certainly know this, but the agendas take precedence over the ominous facts, and they hope to get their way before things start turning colder. If Antarctica is anything to go by, I suspect they’ve left it a little late. Most people are unaware of climatic history, but the wake up call is on its way. Tony Heller keeps tabs on climatic history on his site, and produces many videos outlining historical newspaper articles that completely debunk modern, flawed “thinking”. We are as lambs to the slaughter, and I suppose it serves us right for being so complacent.

    Ron Jeremy: Porn star’s accusers speak out for first time

    “For decades, one of the world’s most famous male porn stars, Ron Jeremy, allegedly groped, assaulted and raped women.”

    “This is the story of events leading up to his arrest, after adult star Ginger Banks and Rolling Stone magazine journalist EJ Dickson helped to shine a light on his behaviour.”

    …I assume we’re talking about his ‘behaviour’, ‘off stage’ and ‘out of role’ here?

    And no, I’m not tempted to watch the video.

      Isn’t that what he was paid for?

    Fox’sHannity says that from the start MSM frame court cases completely wrongly
    .. https://youtu.be/kzi1AXQ2W4Y?t=49
    We were right on Ferguson, Missouri
    and about the Cambridge Police
    and Duple Cross .. and UVA .. and on Baltimore, Maryland and all these same idiots
    politicians like Joe Biden, Hollywood stars, these liberal commentators on cable news channels ..they were wrong every SINGLE time.
    They rush to judgement every time, they deny due process every time
    I want your thoughts — when they do that, they create an atmosphere and an expectation of a result when the evidence comes in will never happen.
    I believe that’ll happen AGAIN (in the Rittenhouse case)

    Levin replies >> I think as a people we have to conclude
    that the media today are racist, corrupt and evil.
    They have no intention of reporting the news
    They have no intention of seeking to be objective or impartial .
    We have seen that for years now
    The American people hold the media in this country contempt.
    The problem is these massive corps like AT&T owns CNN and Comcast owns NBC …etc.
    and they basically immunize the phoney news/propaganda outfits.
    So it doesn’t matter if they get ratings
    So it doesn’t matter what they say.
    when you watch the kind of people MSNBC has as hosts, Joy Reed a flatout bigot
    and the other people they bring on like Michael Eric Dyson & others who are predictable in the outrageous and poisonous things they say.
    I believe the media in this country is helping to fuel riots helping to fuel divis-ness
    helping to fuel hate in this country.
    You can see we are at each other’s throats.
    That wasn’t really the case before.

    And they work with the Democratic party
    They promote AOC, Pressly, Tlaib and Omar.
    These are anti-Semites These are bigots.
    You can see that Joe Biden does their bidding with his exec orders.
    It’s just appalling
    The use of Jim Crow, when a Republican legislature putting in statutes more liberal than in Democrat Delaware where Joe Biden spent his life.
    And more and more of this is going on,
    — they are mainstreaming bigotry.
    When you see the way they treated the lt. Governor elect Winsome Sears (black female)
    The things they said about her,
    if that was a white person talking about a black person
    they would be banned and they should be banned.
    The things that are said on the House floors about white people and Jews so forth
    People should be expelled.
    ….
    … these prosecutors are responding to the mob

    That is from the YouTube transcript, and I’ve never seen one so different from the actual words
    It must have been made by a human seeking to slant it
    cos it misses out whole sentences and I had to put them in

    BTW He’s wrong in saying ALWAYS
    cos the media did get the results they shaped, in the trial of the George Floyd.

    Radio 4 News now.

    They are so concerned around the invaders not being treated well enough.

    Sleeping on concrete floors? Maybe they have finally filled up all the 4 star hotels.

    To be fair, some sensible voices being allowed, although never approved of.

    If you said the word “negro” they’d say ‘you baddie, context does not matter’

    but the rule is “It’s OK when they libmob do it”

    Biden “I’ve adopted the attitude of the great Negro, at the time …”

    Multiple fact checkers immediately rushed to provide cover for Biden, explaining the wider context and arguing that the president did not actually refer to Paige as a “negro.”

    “Balkanisation”. A term we must get used to using for that is exactly what is happening to the UK. Wiki defines it as,

    “Balkanization is the fragmentation of a larger region or state into smaller regions or states, which may be hostile or uncooperative with one another. It is usually caused by differences of ethnicity, culture, and religion and some other factors such as past grievances……..”

    Nicely sums it up. Either that or, with a hint of the ‘Ethnic Cleansing’ of the British.

    Keep em’ coming over the Channel Boris!!! You’ll get there soon.

    The measures were erected at the entrance to the Shambles, which dates from the Middle Ages, on Tuesday.

    Traders said they would affect up to 30 deliveries a day and there had not been adequate consultation.

    Officials said plans for the barriers were drawn up by experts and it was an important measure to protect the city through Christmas and the New Year.

    No mention of why we need the barriers – “Just the new normal.”

    The priority for the council and Make it York was to ensure the safety of residents and visitors during the festive period, the spokesperson added.

    ‘Selfies are taking away our livelihood’

    Photographers in Barsana, a popular temple town in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, were once highly sought after by pilgrims and tourists.

    Now, camera in hand, they plead with people clicking selfies to try their services.

    They spend hours on the temple premises, hustling the crowd, jostling with each other, hoping to make a little more money than they did the previous day.

    But in the words of one photographer, “it’s a digital world now” – no-one has the time or inclination to pose and pay for a photograph that needs to be printed. All they want, he said, is an image for Facebook or Instagram.

    As we know, the BBC has super-acute hearing when it comes to racism. Why, they can hear dog-whistle racism from a thousand miles away, even when it doesn’t exist.

    So how strange they don’t seem to have heard Joe Biden’s blatant racism in his references to blacks as ‘negroes’ in some dopey speech he gave.

    No wonder his minders try to prevent him saying anything unscripted, yet still he puts his foot in it every time. Naturally the msm are covering for him, as usual.

    The dictionary describes the term as ‘dated’ and ‘offensive’.

    Dated and offensive, eh? Sums up the Imbecile perfectly.
