    Decided to visit the Met Offices’ records. Recorded temperatures go back to the earliest date of 1853, recorded in Oxford. The Oxford list:

    https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/pub/data/weather/uk/climate/stationdata/oxforddata.txt

    Unscientifically, I copied/pasted the temperatures for 1853, 1921 and, 100 years later, 2021 (up to October). alongside one another on a spreadsheet. I discounted the figures for 1853 and 1921 for the last two months to make the comparison with, 2021, ‘like for like’.

    The average temperatures for each year (minus the two months)
    for Oxford in 1853 – 14.14 C
    for Oxford in 1921 – 16.99 C
    for Oxford in 2021 – 15.9 C

    for Oxford in 1976 – 16.26 (cooler than 1921!)

    Overall, skimming down the max temperatures numbers, I have to say, there’s no significant variables springing out at me. Indeed, just for fun, I looked at 1976 which was a year most everyone here will remember, and I tagged the average T on.

    If I had the time, I’d love to examine the BBC’s claims almost every month that, “these are the highest temperatures on record”

        Most normal citizens don’t believe what the BBC say anyway, so ‘checking’ rather cuts out the middle man/woman/goblin/midget/leftie…

        A lovely chum admitted to me recently that she listens to the BBC just for one short bulletin each day, then does her normal work.

        I did feel that she said it with a little bit of guilt, so gave her another hug for good measure…

      G…looking at temperature graphs over millions of years and the rise in temperature now is exactly in line with the norm….the infamous ‘hockey stick’, misleading as it is, is of course a tiny selection of that timeline, chosen deliberately to make any temperature rise seem extreme and unusual.

    On Today we heard from a genuine expert that the Delta variant wasn’t causing any significant harm…we also heard that Omicron wasn’t causing any notable rise in cases.

    So…er…don’t panic [Maybe, just maybe, covid is becoming less dangerous and more flu like]….oh….tooooo late.

    BBC reporter in next piece reporting on the introduction of new measures to control this lethal new variant that ‘It is clear that it is on the rise!’

    It is remarkable how BBC presenters and reporters so often just ignore information and facts that the experts tell them and just carry on with their own chosen narrative…on any subject or issue not just the virus.

    You can frequently hear one thing said by the experts and the BBC telling you something different and contrary to that all day.

    Either the BBC ‘fusion’ system where they collate, interpret and disperse information is not working or the BBC just doesn’t care and massages the information to present whatever message they want you to get.

    Not BBC but an unexpected observation on what our society has become:

    I want to give blood but nobody seems to know where I can do it. So I registered on the NHS donation website and I have to make an appointment.
    The earliest one available is March next year !!!.
    In Thailand I just walk into a hospital and they take it. Plus give me 2-weeks of iron tablets with my drinks + snack afterwards.

    Are they really so awash with blood ? – or have the NHS management completely lost the focus of why they exist ?.

    The BBC of course likes to retread the sinners [Michael Vaughan, though innocent until proven guilty…maybe not]….sinners like Nazi Shah who wanted to transport all the Jews out of their country…or indeed Azeem Rafiq who had a similar contempt for Jews but it’s OK…he said it years ago…and doesn’t think it now…lol.

        Whatever the topic, the fact that an ‘impartial’ BBC news reporter needs security because of what she reported should be ringing alarm bells at OFCOM.

        The fact that she needs it because of the hard-Left is ironic in the extreme. No wonder the BBC didn’t report it.

        ‘Gaby Hinsliff’ of The Guardian started her report with ‘ idea of journalists being physically intimidated at work, a thuggish phenomenon repeatedly observed at Donald Trump’s rallies.’ and only mentioned it was from Left wing fanatics later on.

        Shameless double-standard hypocrites.

    TOADY Watch #2 – when will the letter of the alphabet be mentioned?

    Richard Moore head of MI6 doesn’t have an Aston Martin (unlike James Bond although in the books, if I recall correctly, Bond was a Bentley man) but he does write in green ink like the original head of MI6, ‘C’ a.k.a. Sir Mansfield George Smith-Cumming. The BBC are very exercised about the Omicron mutation and Nick could and probably should have asked ‘R’ (for Richard – ‘M’ has been taken) what MI6 have done to find out the true source and nature of this virus.

    Which leaves me wondering. That ‘now it’s all important, tomorrow it’s not and is forgotten: ‘R’ figure; when are we going to start hearing about it again on the BBC? It has not been mentioned in my hearing (I’m less of a faithful R4 listener these days) for months and months on BBC R4.

    Bad news…covid keeps on mutating and producing new variants and will do so for the foreseeable future…thus, on the precautionary principle, masks, social distancing and lockdowns will be imposed forever more…just in case.

    Naturally elections will be cancelled as, well, there’s little difference between Labour and the Tories, and anyway with Parliament surrendering its responsibilities and the BBC in effect running the country there’s little need for inconvenient democracy that would allow people who might not want to bend the knee to the Establishment orthodoxy a voice.

    Tim Davie is in charge of the Junta. They’re here to help…don’t worry…they know best…you are just a stupid ignorant little bigot and should be grateful that such intelligent and morally superior beings have deigned it their lifework to run your life for you.

    The Ottomans ended the Byzantine Empire with the conquest of Constantinople in 1453 by Mehmed the Conqueror. Under the reign of Suleiman the Magnificent, the Ottoman Empire marked the peak of its power and prosperity as well as the highest development of its government, social, and economic systems.

    TOADY Watch #3 – the flag is lowered on the British empire …

    THE BBC going big on Barbados becoming a Republic. The BBC really do hate the UK and its past history except when it comes to them, their centenary (next year) and their unique funding model, the radio licence previously and then the television licence.

    The clip from chosen by the BBC from Prince Charles speech at the ‘R’ day celebrations in Bridgetown? One that just had to make reference to slavery. And one that blamed Britain for it, despite the fact that slavery has been commonplace around the world for many millennia. Unfortunately the BBC forgot to add that the UK pioneered the ending of slavery until foreign people traffickers resurrected the concept in the late 20th and to date 21st century. Shameful BBC. Truly shameful.

    Prince Charles news: Why Prince Charles would choose NOT to become Defender of the Faith
    PRINCE CHARLES will become the next King of England and is currently the oldest King in Waiting in history at 71, having spent nearly his entire life as first-in-line. When he does succeed Queen Elizabeth II, however, he said he would drop one of the monarchy’s core mottos.

    As such, it relates to their ability to preserve the national faith, which, since Henry VIII’s rule is Christianity.

    However, in the more than 500 years since the title came into being, the UK’s religious landscape has markedly diversified.

    The new interfaith identity of the country has led Prince Charles to voice his preference for the streamlined “Defender of Faith” instead.

      The aim is to really cut down on BBC output – I monitor the enemy – the today programme – but not much else . GB news is on ‘default ‘ if only to support an outside news source – but even then I think it is too careful of OFCOM …

        Fed,

        Agreed wholeheartedly. Monitoring is necessary. I want to be able to detect when our, “Worlds Most Trusted” make slight shifts. I predict that as the heat rises in favour of cutting it down to size, their emphasis will shift: more international news whilst reducing the ‘tittle tattle’, less foreigners in the forefront and a reduction in black faces/voices in an attempt to subtly dissuade those who would otherwise seek its demise. They are past masters of the Houdini tricks.

    Then they write a whole article which seems to be pitched at the 5 to 8 year old audience.

      If they tell the whole story of that it would be a miracle! It will be the usual biased clap trap that the BBC wants people to hear and one thing we can more or less guarantee is that it won’t be the whole story.

      To have thrown an entire shipment of very valuable slaves overboard must have been a result of some extreme necessity as this was to them valuable cargo and they would want to get their monetary reward for getting it in one piece to port.

      The attrition rate of slave is pretty much in line with that for sailing ship crew at the time, it wasn’t the safest of professions and they only got paid if the cargo made it alive to dry land.

      The film Belle was all about this and apart from the event actually taking place, it was a complete crock of lies.

      I notice that none of them go near the fact that Muslims have thrown Christians out the boats when coming to us for free stuff. And THAT is without any benefit of the ‘different times’ excuse.

      During World War I, the Ottoman Turks carried out one of the largest genocides in the world’s history. The International Association of Genocide Scholars affirms that the number of Armenian deaths was over one million. This film provides a historical overview of the Armenian Genocide and looks at its denial by Turkey that continues to this day.

    Nut nut doing a briefing about the new virus . I guess he is trying to get his ‘responsible ‘ image back rather than jibbering about peppa pig .

    And the brief was just like the old ones …. Same old same old ….
    And one of the presenters says the NHS has a ‘can do ‘ attitude … that’s not the jobs worth NHS a lot of victims experience …

      He got that wrong it’s not “can do” it’s more like “ can we not do and what about blame management and can we put it off and we need more Money” attitude. Have I missed anything?

      This omicron is nothing but an excuse to do all the things they want to do but would have started a revolt if they did it.

      I suspect they are really worried about a surge to the NHS after Xmas and of course the cost to the economy we can ill afford.

      Mind you, what’s another billion or two when they’ve already borrowed hundreds of billions ?.

    One day might be worth looking across BBC staff Twitter bios (Marianna seems to know them all) to see just how many are ‘views my own’ and the rest 50:50 ‘I work for the BBC and juvenile tripe.
