Walking from car park to supermarket a bunch of teenagers approaching
First two girls smiling walking together straight into me so I had to stop and edge away
next 6 males walking abreast saying to eachother “dont budge no space for him”
They sorely misjudged my strength as they barged into me the biggest one ended up with his drink in his hand all over himself
then had them following me threatening, swearing and approaching fists raised one kicking me when I turned my back, turn again and like rats they back off
Went to the store and suspected they will be waiting outside so went to the security guard who had a bodycam and they were indeed waiting outside
Suddenly they realised security had a bodycam and all had their phones filming me as they accused me and butter would not melt with their apparent reasonableness as they accuse ME of assaulting them, and when I told them what I thought of what they did to me one had the temerity to say (all recorded by them) “please don’t swear”
You should have heard their language when they attacked me which they did not record
My thoughts are with the poor sods bullied like this at whatever school they attend who will not be able to defend themselves
Litte bloody monsters each one, my only satisfaction is the biggest one, about 15/16 years old, and the ringleader, looked a bit of a twat in front of the two girls trying and failing to barge me aside and getting soaked in the process
FFS SG I was walking along a path and confronted, your nice thought but never occurres in real life wait til it happens to you, do you lunge for your phone or defend yourself ?, and to be quite honest wife is still sick about the fact they could have had knives, I never raised my fists please see above. voice and body language is enough to challenge cowards
I have managed through various means to identify one of them, and will be having conversations with the headmaster of their school and also recorded an assault with the police but that will be a waste of time i am sure
Tesco have CCTV and the one that kicked me is the same one that I noticed during community work with the school and he went barmy attacking the teachers and three grown men had to restrain him, cest la vi
Zephir
I speak from experience . The system will treat you as the baddy and those vermin as innocent children in need of protection from nasties like you.
Be careful . If you have injury ( bruise ) get pictures . Be safe
F2 your advice is invaluable as I have a large bruise as a result of being kicked from behind as I walked away (brave little soldiers) and the police have elevated it from assault to ABH, as a result of your advice, and photo sent
the only admiration I have is the speed the little shit then ran away from me as I turned, Usain Bolt would have given him a nod I suspect
they (the police) also said I should “attempt” (their words) to go to my gp for additional evidence, but were laughing as they said it, I joined the merriment
maybe try to visit local golf course to get an appraisal
SG I agree with your sentiments but one never quite knows how one reacts to a situation like this, I have been lucky that this is the first time attacked by a bunch of feral teenagers, I may not show it to them but was really upset by it, adults should not be forced into having to potentially physically fight for nothing especially with teenage schoolyard bullies when walking to a shop
Luckily my strength when butted into and then body language and voice was enough to face them off but I saw them do the same to one other before me
A few years ago maybe the community would do something, today, I strongly suspect the parents or parent would do anything to support them and attack me, the shop itself is a haven for these and it is not the first time t has happened by a long chalk according to the store security
When you have such strange events, your body goes into some kind of shock with disbelief.
but the third time someone physically mugged me, I had complete control. So even though it was in Ecuador and two of them had hold of me, I was still able to get away.
The fourth time was in Albania. I stepped back took the phone out spoke in Albanian. and they scarpered.
Yes I am that way now,I agree with your disbelief because this is the consequence of crime that is not commonly acknowledged, I was hurt a little so what I was also possibly facing knives I knew not what but its been many hours now and I STILL feel angry and upset and I am so angry but also disappointed that teenagers would act that way to adults in the supposed first world civilised society
They were not poor, starving they had just come out of the Costa coffee shop attached to Tesco, teenagers all with 2 3 pound takaway coffees, They were all well clothed, nice haircuts, just spite
Oh but the one that walked directly into me had a hot chocolate in his hand so maybe thick as shit as he never got to taste it
They were lucky in a way because if I was with my wife and they did that I would probably be in jail now
“Oh, I am sorry! Didn’t see you there, I was miles away, hope none of you kids were hurt?”
“I really am sorry, didn’t mean to put my knee right there, well you won’t need to worry about having kids any time soon, I guess. Do you want an ice pack?… I could just go buy you a bag of frozen peas?”
“You really should be a little more careful, it’s alright at your age, you just bounce, but some adults, ‘specially those with conditions and older folks… well, they’d probably class it as murder, so just go a little more careful, hey?”
That’s ridiculous Stew, I’ve never tried to be macho in my life, if you knew me you’d know how crazy that sounds, but I’ve never been intimidated by gobby teenagers either, they’re always cowards who run away when you face them down anyway.
Ok, there’s some who might be carrying knives, or some mean little bastards spoiling for a fight you’d be best to avoid, but that’s not what Zephir was talking about here, and I’m pretty sure most of us could size up a bunch of kids and make a sensible judgement call on that one.
Personally, I think Zephir was right to stand up for himself, my mother (all of 5’2″ and nearly 80) was involved in a confrontation with some angry, foul-mouthed teenage girls who tried to snatch her bag a couple of years ago. Apparently they threatened her and spat at her, but she stood her ground, and they cleared off, if she can do it, anyone can, and if people don’t they’ll only get worse.
The advice from the plod was that no one is ever prosecuted for defending themselves, so long as they don’t use a dangerous weapon, and don’t keep attacking someone who is injured, or running away.
@bbc thank you, I am still angry about what happened, and it seems it is “something” on one of their social media things, a “challenge” to attack and they were also in the car park trying to film my car as I left
they are angry as they did not get the result they wanted ie to intimidate me
what they fail to understand is common assault and I will be looking for them also, not just for injury but the upset they caused
Found this on one of their social media outlets which explains what the ringleader said, he precisely used the phrase “no budge” to his mates which is strange but a lttle search has revealed but this related to one person not 6 walking abreast:
About
The No Budge Walk, also known as the No Budge Challenge, is an internet challenge that started on TikTok in November 2021. The person performing the challenge is tasked with walking through a crowd of people who are heading in the opposite direction of them without straying from a straight line. This results in the person bumping into a lot of people, sometimes making them angry.
The COVID Vaccine would not be regarded as a vaccine by Edward Jenner. A Vaccine would induce immunity to a disease, by inoculation. But Dr Peter Doshi, associate editor of the British Medical Journal, pointed out that the Merriam Webster dictionary changed its definition of ‘vaccine’ earlier this year because mRNA products did not meet the definition of ‘vaccine’. He went on to say “How would you feel about mandating Covid vaccines if we didn’t call them ‘vaccines’? What if these injections are called drugs instead”
I read that manufacturers refused to produce the so called vaccines unless they were given legal immunity from prosecutions. Its also possible that just like in the Soviet Union, scientists under political pressure, have produced experimental products that duplicate some aspects of the disease that they are supposed to protect people from.
Data provided by the UK Health Security Agency shows that infection rates are higher in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated in all age groups from 30 upwards. This could be because the only people who are immune from COVID are those unvaccinated people who caught COVID and recovered from COVID.
Data from the Medicines & Health Regulatory Agency, Yellow Card reporting system published on 11th November indicates that there have been 1,261,714 adverse reactions to the vaccines, including strokes, skin disorders, thrombosis and anaphylaxis. 1,766 people are reported to have died.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said “Dr Fauci’s suppression of early treatment and off-patent remedies was responsible for up to 80 percent of the deaths attributed to COVID”
The two largest funders of WHO, are the United States under Dr Fauci, and Bill Gates.
Maybe our -usually justifiably highly praised- R.N.L.I. should incorporate this video into their training sessions which could possibly improve their standing among sceptics.It’s worth a try at least and it may even encourage would be recruits to THINK before they commit themselves to the unknown.
Not the BBC but the Channel 4 (sister organisation that the BBC has to share LF money with, iirc) Chief Executive, Alex Mahon, is pictured and quoted on the front page of the Telegraph today. She said: “I don’t see the broadcaster as a left-wing organisation. We are set up to to represent the under-represented.”
I plead Mandy Rice-Davies, M’Lud: “She would say that, wouldn’t she?”
The rule, company officials said Tuesday, would not apply to photos that added “value to public discourse” or were of people involved in a large-scale protest, crisis situation or other “newsworthy event due to public interest value.” https://archive.md/Amsm2
The WaPo language is weird they smear everyone who dares to challenge antifa as “far right” “extremist” etc.
AP : Donald Trump’s new social media company and its special purpose acquisition company partner say investors have pledged $1 billion.
The former president, who has been banned from Twitter, plans to launch a messaging app called “Truth Social.”
Channel 4 happy to run ads for the new “no doctor” contraceptive medication, basically just pay and get it and hey ho sex without kids.
Have they thought of the implications this has for the underground sex trade? It makes running these despicable and nasty businesses so much easier for the crooks who take all the profits.
It’s pure evil and I hope the bosses at C4 can sleep easily in their beds now thinking about these girls forced into prostitution.
Convenient for the posh and randy lady latte crew In SW1 but not so nice for the hordes of Asian girls imported to support the sex trade.
Another nail in the coffin of civilisation and another step towards the repeat of the end of the Roman Empire via totally evil corruption by the distorted powers that be!
Digg
It’s been that way for years.
But I just wonder if finally, finally, the penny is dropping.
By pumping tens of billions into the NHS, Boris has detoxified the Tories as an anti NHS party.
And therefore there may now be a portion of the population that can no longer blame the pisspoor performance of the NHS on ‘Tory underfunding’ but might just look critically at the hopeless, outdated, unreformed , entitled institution for what it is.
Sadly, even on this highly esteemed website, plus votes for these opinions are still thin on the ground so it’s going to be a long hard slog, but things may just be starting to move in the right direction.
Healthcare for patients not producers, what a radical change that would be.
Despite working in it for several years, my recent surgical stay showed me how the system has further deteriorated. Abdominal surgery and sent home after 2 nights with a handful of fresh dressings as the only aftercare. Old bloodstains on the floor of the patient toilet (which us ladies complained off many times). We then discovered that it was a very laid back male cleaner with no sense of urgency (leave it to your imagination). Thankfully am on the mend, a visit to the surgery nurse checked my wounds, and the cold I caught in hospital is now subsiding.
Its scary being in hospital – aside from being ill. My fear was being put with the frail and the bewildered, but thankfully only one met that criteria – a lady who was clearly born at the start of Prohibition, and ranted in Italian (she didn’t know English after 53 years living here). Mussolini would have been proud.
£6000 so far for my wifes immigration process and each time an English test, seems it applies to some but not others
I am teaching her the phrase beeg eeshoo pleese as it seems common in the high street, but not so common after brexit
and one can spend a day in London, and certain parts of Luton and not hear the mother tongue
of course this has nothing whatsoever to do with corruption at Luton college (now a university) and their failure to correctly identify those taking the English test or the £500 it may cost to bypass the process
in other areas *thou shalt not lie oh different religion…)
Nine convicted over student visa English test plot
I am considering sending some abusive messages to Xi Ping from her email account and then buying her a dinghy for Christmas and dump her in the surf at Bournmouth next weekend
I’m pleased to read that you’re on the mend Brissles. You warned us of your impending surgery, and of course, Senora O’Blene and I were hoping that it all worked well for you!
Please stay well, keep in touch and get back to your normal feisty self as soon as possible!
Another lynching in Pakistan
They are not that rare in the Indian subcontinent
.. I thought libmob are against lynchings
but they rarely talk about these ones.
There are apparently 27 comments at the time of my posting this but they obviously haven’t got any they can actually share with us yet, so I’ll add my own here. Cleverly constructed to avoid censor of course but I believe it still succinctly yet eloquently captures and conveys a real sense of the man’s character and journalistic integrity.
I thought I’d share just the top three comments on this article in case they disappear soon.
‘You only find Biden dull because you’re a lazy journalist. Do some work and look into his shady business dealings and those of his son and family, there’s a can of worms that you’ll find very interesting.’
‘Every report that I saw from Jon Sopel during Trumps time in office was so biased against Trump and his administration it was farcical & embarrassing.’
‘Trump the greatest ever president will be back in 2024 god willing.’
I quite like this one, it echoes my sentiment, just in a more studied and intellectual way.
“The Biased BBC are at it again ! Attacking anyone who isn’t Woke ! and attacking everyone who didn’t get a highly paid job at the Beeb through Nepotism or by playing the pc correct card !!! Stop paying the TV Tax and send Soppy Sopel to the Dole Queue where he belongs along with all the other Biased BBC Liberal Luvvies !!!”
LOL at both of these assholes suddenly acting like they didn't share office space with this guy. Just incredible. Stelter says this now that's he's fired but never before. Just a complete PR clown operation pic.twitter.com/qWBIXkKX27

Not if they hang on to Peppa the Pig and leave our borders wide open to invaders . They have become a left wing liberal party that has allowed Great Britain to become defenceless .

It seems to have been triggered by the legal ramifications of his helping his brother Andrew to swerve an assortment of bad behaviour on CNN time seems to be the actual motivation.
Hopefully, the creaking hopper of accountability will empty onto the pair.
Nick Robinson had a very fawning programme with Chris Bryant, the gay Labour MP ..whose wedding he was at.
Aside from not really tackling accusations of corruption against him from the past.
at one point Bryant said “Boris wants CULTURE wars.. a trick he has learnt from Trump
I’m a gay man and culture wars means gays, Jews, blacks are picked on when a POPULARIST government gets into power”
..hangon that’s all rhetorical spin
Bryant is playing the VICTIM !
Culture wars come about cos Marxists use minorities as a stick to hit conservatives such that majority groups like straight white men and conservative women are removed from having EQUAL rights and are treated as second class.
It is not about removing equality from any other group.
Bryant is using the trick of misrepresentation
ie building a strawman to attack.

Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk.
It’s not WaPo, but rather their opinion writer.
“Apparently the entire blue tick industry is endorsing this article.
They are shamelessly sharing this graph (trump’s consistent -ve coverage) vs Biden (1 -ve dip during afg)
and calling it even lol.”
(The areas under the line are nowhere near the same, so even the claim is bogus even by the flawed chart)
I wonder what the definition of ‘bad press’ might be ?
Perhaps the US MSM is running out the ability to blame the true president for big issues affecting Americans everyday and have to ‘pivot’ into starting to mildly notice that the fraudulent dementing old boy in the White House shouldn’t be there ….
Here’s CNN really putting the boot in to Biden today
Did they ever do fawning articles like this to Trump ?
“I promise you it’ll go away if you just keep at it, OK?”
President Biden offered some words of encouragement to a young girl who struggles with a stutter, empathizing with her as someone who has had a lifelong stutter himself.https://t.co/GTvC1qyuat
‘Released by the Human Rights Watch earlier this week, the report documented more than 100 executions and abductions of former Afghan government officials since the Taliban took control of the country almost four months ago.’
None reported by the BBC of course.
Never mind, at least we get plenty of ‘life and death’ stories about female cabin attendants who get told to stay at home, girls who are temporarily told not to go to school and girls football teams who aren’t allowed to play any more
They were probably men anyway so they don’t count.
Here we go, presumably to take our minds off things, it’s Prince William puff piece Sunday.
The BBC has him emoting away like a good millennial man child: ‘Prince William reveals emotional toll of air ambulance rescues‘
There was a time when BBC blokes, like John Noakes, might happily – with the minimum of health and safety assessment – sample exciting man jobs, such as crewing a chopper, climbing Nelson’s column, or training for the Cresta Run with an RAF four-man bobsleigh team – and if things went a bit pear-shaped on the day, he could boast of his physical bruises.
‘William’s mental health crisis… engulfed by a dark cloud of depression‘ – frets the Mail on Sunday. Buck your ideas up, man!
Turns out he’s still a mummy’s boy at heart: ‘Prince William’s touching childhood memories of Diana in intimate chat‘ (Sunday Express) – I’m sure his PR team regard all this amateur hour psychiatrist’s chair baloney as a press coup.
Frankly, he’s a very privileged, early balding midwit, born with a massive golden spoon stuck up his behind, and his advisors ought to explain to him that posy pandering to lefty sentiments will inevitably fall as flat as his young fogey flat cap.
“I start the week by rocking out to AC/DC” he tells the Sunday Telegraph. Which must be about the only newspaper title who’s residual readership still reckon that’s in any sense trendy. The epitome of a sad dad band. Hair Metal compensation for the bloke who keeps his country tweed flat cap on so as to save the photographers having to deal with the glare off his shiny pink pate – as his prior big PR session’s briefing memories of cosy global warming alarmism still pass through his brain.
‘He told Apple’s “Time to Walk” series which encourages people to take a stroll to help their well-being…‘ – complete and utter corporate mumbo-jumbo.
Alternatively, the Observer offers us: ‘Faces of the year‘ – I suppose they couldn’t hold off on the end-of-year-round-up page filler for much longer. ‘The people of 2021 tell their stories‘ – in other words the celeb PR teams have been working overtime.
What a face the Guardian on Sunday presents – from the cover page of the Observer and through the curtain of her blond fringe peers the mardiest-looking overgrown gloomy goth teen imaginable. One Billie Eilish – that’s a girl. A face that simply screams “Whateva!”
“I’ve gotten a lot more proud of who I am” – she’s American. One imagines the fame, celebrity, wealth and attention helped out there, luv?
So what’s your story? What was your problem – because if you didn’t have some issue, label, condition, campaign to push, past trauma… then we’re wasting our time with this interview, right?
‘The British Vogue cover… exploded the internet, largely because of the Eilish-directed photoshoot – the green-and-black-haired, shorts-wearing punk everyone knew had suddenly turned into a blond, pink-corseted, Marilyn Monroe-esque bombshell.‘
Girl Power! And a bit of market re-orientation.
This interview: ‘We’re speaking over Zoom from her home in Los Angeles‘ (natch) is laced with such gems of try hard hip right on phraseology as: “super-worried”; “food justice”; “I try my best to f*cking help the world, because, jeez, why not?” ‘You’re allowed to change‘ and ‘her voice hardens against the haters‘
‘... warts-and-all documentary, Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry, documenting her early years, which came out in February. When Eilish saw it she “literally sobbed all the way through it”. Why? “To see how young I was then and how much was going on and what I dealt with and coped with. I was also being proud of myself and also pitying myself and also being kind of envious of that girl, the 16-year-old me who was just so fearless and carefree.” She catches herself. “I had to snap out of it!”’
So snap out of it!
If anyone can please explain what exactly the Sunday Mirror is on about then I’d be most grateful.
The Labour-supporting Mirror has spent the week clutching at the straw: ‘No 10… throwing a party’
Starmer is perhaps bit leary of going too lockdown-hard and so we have found a couple of human shields for this attack on the Tories: ‘Our loved ones died while No 10 partied… Beryl and Elaine died alone last year‘ – but if you really want lockdowns and think they are a real thing then surely more elderly people locked alone in their own homes or isolated in care homes by the regulations – for which you are constantly advocating – will inevitably die alone – so, which is it?
Not really interested in the self destructive royals – but I do feel for the chap whose job he took whilst playing around at flying helicopters. And if he is sitting in the front seat he ain’t gonna be exposed to the customers the flying ambulance picks up ….
I guess it is a battle of press offices trying to out woke each other . This will be followed by ‘my drugs he’ll ‘ by the ginger ex prince. …
This cannot be dealt with by another classic BBC whitewash. It must be subject to external scrutiny. @BoardofDeputies should insist on it. This is taxpayers’ funds apparently used to pay for Jew hate. https://t.co/tWFU3YyPJr
I am banging my head against a wall to try and understand
why there is increased Anti-Semitism in the UK. There
has been much rapprochement between Israel and many
Arab States over the last few years. Israel has the best of
relations with India. And in any case Jews in the UK
don’t agree with all of Israel’s policies. Where can
this Anti-Semitism attacks come from ? I am mystified.
The extreme far right? Maybe there is still a small degree
of Nazi hangover. But then even Tommy Robinson is a
friend of Israel.
We hear Mehdi Hassan the esteemed TV presenter tell us
on Question Time that Anti-Semitism is the dirty little secret
for Muslims. But I reiterate its not all Muslims. I am scratching
my brain . Are there any clues?
Could the latest poster boy for the BBC Azeem Rafiq give us
a clue? Surely Muslims of Pakistani heritage could not be
a reason. Ok Pakistan doesn’t recognize Israel and despise
Israel. But how could this have anything to do with the British
Pakistani community in the UK? It’s like saying that most of
the grooming and raping of women and girls comes from
the same folk.
Has the change of demographics changed in the UK so much
so that the increase of attacks has anything to do with it ?
I am as confused as I am, with where most of the knife crime
and deaths come from. I am not sure that I am in agreement
with the BBC London Programme that it is mostly depravation,
the police and the Toreeees who are the prime causes.
It’s all very confusing , isn’t it?
Fos, I have wondered the same, as there is no indication by the media as to who exactly the perpetrators are. I’ve only seen ancient news footage of abusive and vocal yobs outside schools in N.London, but a young Jewish couple were interviewed on a housing estate in the north and sadly gave an account of their persecution. So who is doing this ?
“The extreme far right? Maybe there is still a small degree of Nazi hangover. But then even Tommy Robinson is a friend of Israel.”
You probably did not mean it, but the juxtaposition of “extreme far right” and “Nazi” to the name of Tommy Robinson may, to some unthinking people, suggest a connection. TR emphatically could not be called either of those things, even if they represented a significant reality in this country, which they don’t.
Banania- I know I didn’t put that very well. I was trying to
be facetious . And I know very well how Tommy Robinson
has been terribly persecuted by the “authorities” because
of him finding out about the facts about the grooming
and raping gangs from mostly one ethnic group of “folk”
in the UK. And one, the BBC and a lot of the main media
wont mention.

Apparently these governors will “empower local leadership and allow communities to take back control”. As usual with such sloganeering, we should assume that the words mean the opposite of what they say.
Sopel has written a piece in the Daily Mail about America Trump & Biden which throws into the spotlight his distorted deluded view (or maybe it’s lies) about the political history and current affairs of the USA.
“Biden has made strenuous efforts to lower the political temperature, and in his view, at least, is far less polarising than Trump.”
Biden has made not one iota of effort to lower political division, and even left wing commentators will admit to that. He promised in the campaign to do so, but once in office has done the opposite. The only way in which he is less polarising is the unity of people opposed his presidency.
“But America’s chaotic departure from Afghanistan, the perception that the far Left of the Democratic Party holds too much sway, and dissatisfaction over people being told they have to be vaccinated have all contributed to a slump in his approval ratings.”
This is not true, although it has certainly added to the approval ratings, but the most important factor, Sopel like many wealthy left wing elitists has not been affected by the rampant inflation which is affecting working class Americans. Inflation is probably the biggest single cause of the disapproval of American voters.
These were just a couple of paragraphs which stood out to me, but the whole article carries a tone of Sopels bias and inability to connect with the real America outside of Washington DC.
I wonder if he travelled to the catastrophic West coast cities of Seattle Portland, Los Angeles to see the collapse of civilisation there because of politics which he supports and fails to criticise or report the failure.
It’s an interesting insight into the mind of a man who surely knows what is going on but cannot admit it either to himself or his readers.
Impeachment in the United States is the process by which a legislature’s lower house brings charges against a civil federal officer, the vice president, or the president for misconduct alleged to have been committed.
Congratulations to @JoeBiden on his election as President of the United States of America.
He ran a campaign on the values that we in the United Kingdom share – decency, integrity, compassion and strength.
And I want to congratulate @KamalaHarris on being elected Vice-President, the first woman of colour to take that role.
Their victory is one for hope and unity over dishonesty and division. Millions of Americans of all backgrounds and ages have come together to vote for a better, more optimistic future.
Former president Donald Trump in January became the first president in American history to be impeached twice. But being impeached is not the same as being convicted and kicked out of office or barred from ever holding it again.
That’s up to the Senate, which is conducting its trial of Trump. It’s the first time a former president has been the subject of such a trial.
Here’s how we got here, what’s happening and what will happen next.
Behind the scenes the emir of londonistan has been losing the plot – with the bus /tube system running out of money . Tube drivers are now regularly going on strike .
The emir has floated the idea of closing at least one tube line and dumpling a lot of bus routes if nut nut doesn’t bail him out again .
Meanwhile the emir is closing down most of London s roads so that millennial can casually cycle to their coffee shops and safe spaces .
I drive a car , a motor bike and sometimes a push bike – but to me the hostility towards the car is driving people to insanity – plus – of course he has just hit Londoners with a £12.50 failing charge for using cars maybe older than 6 years on their on roads . This hit me as mine is over 10 years old …..
Recently the emir admitted that one of the reasons he is running out of money is because the new congestion charge isn’t catching as many as they planned for – proving it wasn’t about the ‘environment ‘ but was about just making money to feed the bloated city hall .
As I said – this may be a local issue – but I don’t think the national BBC will touch it at all …
The Tories are planning to massively undercut TfL funding, we can't recover as a country if our capital is being undermined like this pic.twitter.com/ipgbOt9xzI
I think it’s funny that all Khan’s extra charges and daft gimmicks are actually hurting the blm majority London.
As Britons are in a minority (and decreasing daily) they are becoming less effected with the little guy’s money raising schemes.
Try it out on the non indigenous first to see how it goes.
Scrob
I might hope that nut nut tells the Emir to cut his projects and fund the public transport system himself- which is what he is paid for .
But he will get bailed out by the UK taxpayer again…
“Biden prejudiced a trial of a minor by falsely labelling him a white supremacist before the trial started
… that is not calming and healing.”
Impeachment in the United States is the process by which a legislature’s lower house brings charges against a civil federal officer, the vice president, or the president for misconduct alleged to have been committed.
Raab proposes watering down the standards of evidence for rape prosecutions to get convictions, but never for terrorism?
This is all driven by militant left-wing feminists. Almost 100% of rape allegations are between those who know each other. There is so much room for victim antagonism from a failed relationship to cloud the investigation.
One of Raab’s priorities is to ensure that the victim has her mobile returned to her as soon as possible. Loss of a mobile for a time deters victims from coming forward apparently! FFS…
Well on the way back to, ‘Law of the Jungle’ if I’m not mistaken. Will the ‘System’, all so anxious to lock white males up, take account of the fact that, “56% of white liberal women have a mental disorder”. 56% ?
I’ve got my own views on that………….
There is no question that people are arriving on our shores, are not from a war torn country but from Calais
there is no debate about whether they are fleeing from “war torn countries” as the far left racist bangladeshie broadcasting corporation would have you believe
Callais and France in general is not war torn, apart from maybe arguments about sausages, pastries and garlic (not all together wait a minute hmm thinking about that now)

David Starkey on Mary Seacole here from 0:46.
She was not a nurse. She went to the Crimea to set up an hotel for officers and sell luxury items. Because she went out late in the war she failed to sell all the items and became bankrupt.
Kofoworola Abeni Pratt was the first black nurse to work for the NHS.
After moving to Britain in 1946, she qualified as a Nurse in 1950
Later she returned to Nigeria rising to Minister of Health.
She passed away in 1992 aged 77.
She is of Arab extraction, so no, it wouldn’t be British. I haven’t seen her husband; I don’t know his name either, but I reckon I could put a pretty close photofit together.
Ritual moaning by Medical Mafia about their inability to run the NHS . All those highly paid – self regarding types who can’t sort their organisation out year after year – however much additional taxpayers’ cash is thrown at .
They have capacity for diversity advisors and layers of management which year after year fails – but hasn’t the capacity to deal with ill people .
Then – it ran an unchallenged Tony Blair about the need to vaccinate the world – because SA was the first to spot the latest brand of Chinese virus .
There was no question that it might have originated somewhere else .
Blair much prefers talking about ‘world problems ‘ instead of British ones – he must still have an ambition to get the top UN job – the opportunities for corruption there must be very attractive .

There is a UK governance convention that Government Ministers always protect their Civil Servants, they do not blame the Civil Servants when mistakes are made, when things go wrong the Civil Servants are not held accountable. I think this convention should now be done away with.
In Kent, despite the ever increasing population – well it is a great place to live, especially west Kent where I am not, unfortunately – the Civil Serpents wished to close a major hospital in East Kent.
Yes, honestly.
We have massive homebuilding going on across the county, especially in the east of the county. You need hospitals in that situation because housbuilding presents dangers to the workforce on site. Despite that increasing population, despite the home building, at the Department of Health the Civil Serpents wished to cut six major hospitals down to five in East Kent and I think there may have been plans to reduce bed capacity in at least one of the others.
It is time for the elected Government of the day to start hanging out some of these Civil Serpents to dry. Cummings knows it. Patel knows it. The PM knows it. But still they do nothing about the real problem in the UK.
Spiked : “The Muslim Council MCB has defamed me as a promoter of ‘fringe Islamophobic ideas’.
The MCB says the fact I was allowed publicly to muse over the possibility that ISIS is a tad fascistic highlights the ‘inherent danger’ of allowing voices like mine into the mainstream media.
High time this insidious organisation is banned, any casual perusal will highlight that there is a hidden side that one has to be “approved” to access
Any ideas why ?
before they became the insidous website they are now, they were promoting “how to complain to the media” weekend seminars
So any stories in the media about muslim criminals will be subject to thousands of complaints by muslim apologists

You never know how the day will end
Walking from car park to supermarket a bunch of teenagers approaching
First two girls smiling walking together straight into me so I had to stop and edge away
next 6 males walking abreast saying to eachother “dont budge no space for him”
They sorely misjudged my strength as they barged into me the biggest one ended up with his drink in his hand all over himself
then had them following me threatening, swearing and approaching fists raised one kicking me when I turned my back, turn again and like rats they back off
Went to the store and suspected they will be waiting outside so went to the security guard who had a bodycam and they were indeed waiting outside
Suddenly they realised security had a bodycam and all had their phones filming me as they accused me and butter would not melt with their apparent reasonableness as they accuse ME of assaulting them, and when I told them what I thought of what they did to me one had the temerity to say (all recorded by them) “please don’t swear”
You should have heard their language when they attacked me which they did not record
My thoughts are with the poor sods bullied like this at whatever school they attend who will not be able to defend themselves
Litte bloody monsters each one, my only satisfaction is the biggest one, about 15/16 years old, and the ringleader, looked a bit of a twat in front of the two girls trying and failing to barge me aside and getting soaked in the process

SG I agree with your sentiments but one never quite knows how one reacts to a situation like this, I have been lucky that this is the first time attacked by a bunch of feral teenagers, I may not show it to them but was really upset by it, adults should not be forced into having to potentially physically fight for nothing especially with teenage schoolyard bullies when walking to a shop
Luckily my strength when butted into and then body language and voice was enough to face them off but I saw them do the same to one other before me
A few years ago maybe the community would do something, today, I strongly suspect the parents or parent would do anything to support them and attack me, the shop itself is a haven for these and it is not the first time t has happened by a long chalk according to the store security

When you have such strange events, your body goes into some kind of shock with disbelief.
but the third time someone physically mugged me, I had complete control. So even though it was in Ecuador and two of them had hold of me, I was still able to get away.
The fourth time was in Albania. I stepped back took the phone out spoke in Albanian. and they scarpered.

Yes I am that way now,I agree with your disbelief because this is the consequence of crime that is not commonly acknowledged, I was hurt a little so what I was also possibly facing knives I knew not what but its been many hours now and I STILL feel angry and upset and I am so angry but also disappointed that teenagers would act that way to adults in the supposed first world civilised society
They were not poor, starving they had just come out of the Costa coffee shop attached to Tesco, teenagers all with 2 3 pound takaway coffees, They were all well clothed, nice haircuts, just spite
Oh but the one that walked directly into me had a hot chocolate in his hand so maybe thick as shit as he never got to taste it
They were lucky in a way because if I was with my wife and they did that I would probably be in jail now

That’s ridiculous Stew, I’ve never tried to be macho in my life, if you knew me you’d know how crazy that sounds, but I’ve never been intimidated by gobby teenagers either, they’re always cowards who run away when you face them down anyway.
Ok, there’s some who might be carrying knives, or some mean little bastards spoiling for a fight you’d be best to avoid, but that’s not what Zephir was talking about here, and I’m pretty sure most of us could size up a bunch of kids and make a sensible judgement call on that one.
Personally, I think Zephir was right to stand up for himself, my mother (all of 5’2″ and nearly 80) was involved in a confrontation with some angry, foul-mouthed teenage girls who tried to snatch her bag a couple of years ago. Apparently they threatened her and spat at her, but she stood her ground, and they cleared off, if she can do it, anyone can, and if people don’t they’ll only get worse.
The advice from the plod was that no one is ever prosecuted for defending themselves, so long as they don’t use a dangerous weapon, and don’t keep attacking someone who is injured, or running away.

Censored by the BBC:
The COVID Vaccine would not be regarded as a vaccine by Edward Jenner. A Vaccine would induce immunity to a disease, by inoculation. But Dr Peter Doshi, associate editor of the British Medical Journal, pointed out that the Merriam Webster dictionary changed its definition of ‘vaccine’ earlier this year because mRNA products did not meet the definition of ‘vaccine’. He went on to say “How would you feel about mandating Covid vaccines if we didn’t call them ‘vaccines’? What if these injections are called drugs instead”
I read that manufacturers refused to produce the so called vaccines unless they were given legal immunity from prosecutions. Its also possible that just like in the Soviet Union, scientists under political pressure, have produced experimental products that duplicate some aspects of the disease that they are supposed to protect people from.
Data provided by the UK Health Security Agency shows that infection rates are higher in the vaccinated than the unvaccinated in all age groups from 30 upwards. This could be because the only people who are immune from COVID are those unvaccinated people who caught COVID and recovered from COVID.
Data from the Medicines & Health Regulatory Agency, Yellow Card reporting system published on 11th November indicates that there have been 1,261,714 adverse reactions to the vaccines, including strokes, skin disorders, thrombosis and anaphylaxis. 1,766 people are reported to have died.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said “Dr Fauci’s suppression of early treatment and off-patent remedies was responsible for up to 80 percent of the deaths attributed to COVID”
The two largest funders of WHO, are the United States under Dr Fauci, and Bill Gates.

It’s been that way for years.
But I just wonder if finally, finally, the penny is dropping.
By pumping tens of billions into the NHS, Boris has detoxified the Tories as an anti NHS party.
And therefore there may now be a portion of the population that can no longer blame the pisspoor performance of the NHS on ‘Tory underfunding’ but might just look critically at the hopeless, outdated, unreformed , entitled institution for what it is.
Sadly, even on this highly esteemed website, plus votes for these opinions are still thin on the ground so it’s going to be a long hard slog, but things may just be starting to move in the right direction.

Despite working in it for several years, my recent surgical stay showed me how the system has further deteriorated. Abdominal surgery and sent home after 2 nights with a handful of fresh dressings as the only aftercare. Old bloodstains on the floor of the patient toilet (which us ladies complained off many times). We then discovered that it was a very laid back male cleaner with no sense of urgency (leave it to your imagination). Thankfully am on the mend, a visit to the surgery nurse checked my wounds, and the cold I caught in hospital is now subsiding.
Its scary being in hospital – aside from being ill. My fear was being put with the frail and the bewildered, but thankfully only one met that criteria – a lady who was clearly born at the start of Prohibition, and ranted in Italian (she didn’t know English after 53 years living here). Mussolini would have been proud.

‘Every report that I saw from Jon Sopel during Trumps time in office was so biased against Trump and his administration it was farcical & embarrassing.’
‘Trump the greatest ever president will be back in 2024 god willing.’
I quite like this one, it echoes my sentiment, just in a more studied and intellectual way.

Aside from not really tackling accusations of corruption against him from the past.
at one point Bryant said “Boris wants CULTURE wars.. a trick he has learnt from Trump
I’m a gay man and culture wars means gays, Jews, blacks are picked on when a POPULARIST government gets into power”
..hangon that’s all rhetorical spin
Bryant is playing the VICTIM !
Culture wars come about cos Marxists use minorities as a stick to hit conservatives such that majority groups like straight white men and conservative women are removed from having EQUAL rights and are treated as second class.
It is not about removing equality from any other group.
Bryant is using the trick of misrepresentation
ie building a strawman to attack.

The BBC is committed to redeploying employees seeking suitable alternative employment within the BBC for different reasons and they will be given priority consideration ahead of other applicants. Priority consideration means for those employees seeking redeployment their application will be considered alongside anyone else at risk of redundancy, prior to any individuals being considered who are not at risk.
With further provisos no doubt.

Afghanistan: Taliban warned against targeting former security forces
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-59536522
‘Released by the Human Rights Watch earlier this week, the report documented more than 100 executions and abductions of former Afghan government officials since the Taliban took control of the country almost four months ago.’
None reported by the BBC of course.
Never mind, at least we get plenty of ‘life and death’ stories about female cabin attendants who get told to stay at home, girls who are temporarily told not to go to school and girls football teams who aren’t allowed to play any more
They were probably men anyway so they don’t count.

Three course rant for Sunday breakfast edition
Here we go, presumably to take our minds off things, it’s Prince William puff piece Sunday.
The BBC has him emoting away like a good millennial man child: ‘Prince William reveals emotional toll of air ambulance rescues‘
There was a time when BBC blokes, like John Noakes, might happily – with the minimum of health and safety assessment – sample exciting man jobs, such as crewing a chopper, climbing Nelson’s column, or training for the Cresta Run with an RAF four-man bobsleigh team – and if things went a bit pear-shaped on the day, he could boast of his physical bruises.
‘William’s mental health crisis… engulfed by a dark cloud of depression‘ – frets the Mail on Sunday. Buck your ideas up, man!
Turns out he’s still a mummy’s boy at heart: ‘Prince William’s touching childhood memories of Diana in intimate chat‘ (Sunday Express) – I’m sure his PR team regard all this amateur hour psychiatrist’s chair baloney as a press coup.
Frankly, he’s a very privileged, early balding midwit, born with a massive golden spoon stuck up his behind, and his advisors ought to explain to him that posy pandering to lefty sentiments will inevitably fall as flat as his young fogey flat cap.
“I start the week by rocking out to AC/DC” he tells the Sunday Telegraph. Which must be about the only newspaper title who’s residual readership still reckon that’s in any sense trendy. The epitome of a sad dad band. Hair Metal compensation for the bloke who keeps his country tweed flat cap on so as to save the photographers having to deal with the glare off his shiny pink pate – as his prior big PR session’s briefing memories of cosy global warming alarmism still pass through his brain.
‘He told Apple’s “Time to Walk” series which encourages people to take a stroll to help their well-being…‘ – complete and utter corporate mumbo-jumbo.
Alternatively, the Observer offers us: ‘Faces of the year‘ – I suppose they couldn’t hold off on the end-of-year-round-up page filler for much longer. ‘The people of 2021 tell their stories‘ – in other words the celeb PR teams have been working overtime.
What a face the Guardian on Sunday presents – from the cover page of the Observer and through the curtain of her blond fringe peers the mardiest-looking overgrown gloomy goth teen imaginable. One Billie Eilish – that’s a girl. A face that simply screams “Whateva!”
“I’ve gotten a lot more proud of who I am” – she’s American. One imagines the fame, celebrity, wealth and attention helped out there, luv?
So what’s your story? What was your problem – because if you didn’t have some issue, label, condition, campaign to push, past trauma… then we’re wasting our time with this interview, right?
‘The British Vogue cover… exploded the internet, largely because of the Eilish-directed photoshoot – the green-and-black-haired, shorts-wearing punk everyone knew had suddenly turned into a blond, pink-corseted, Marilyn Monroe-esque bombshell.‘
Girl Power! And a bit of market re-orientation.
This interview: ‘We’re speaking over Zoom from her home in Los Angeles‘ (natch) is laced with such gems of try hard hip right on phraseology as: “super-worried”; “food justice”; “I try my best to f*cking help the world, because, jeez, why not?” ‘You’re allowed to change‘ and ‘her voice hardens against the haters‘
‘... warts-and-all documentary, Billie Eilish: The World’s a Little Blurry, documenting her early years, which came out in February. When Eilish saw it she “literally sobbed all the way through it”. Why? “To see how young I was then and how much was going on and what I dealt with and coped with. I was also being proud of myself and also pitying myself and also being kind of envious of that girl, the 16-year-old me who was just so fearless and carefree.” She catches herself. “I had to snap out of it!”’
So snap out of it!
If anyone can please explain what exactly the Sunday Mirror is on about then I’d be most grateful.
The Labour-supporting Mirror has spent the week clutching at the straw: ‘No 10… throwing a party’
Starmer is perhaps bit leary of going too lockdown-hard and so we have found a couple of human shields for this attack on the Tories: ‘Our loved ones died while No 10 partied… Beryl and Elaine died alone last year‘ – but if you really want lockdowns and think they are a real thing then surely more elderly people locked alone in their own homes or isolated in care homes by the regulations – for which you are constantly advocating – will inevitably die alone – so, which is it?

I am banging my head against a wall to try and understand
why there is increased Anti-Semitism in the UK. There
has been much rapprochement between Israel and many
Arab States over the last few years. Israel has the best of
relations with India. And in any case Jews in the UK
don’t agree with all of Israel’s policies. Where can
this Anti-Semitism attacks come from ? I am mystified.
The extreme far right? Maybe there is still a small degree
of Nazi hangover. But then even Tommy Robinson is a
friend of Israel.
We hear Mehdi Hassan the esteemed TV presenter tell us
on Question Time that Anti-Semitism is the dirty little secret
for Muslims. But I reiterate its not all Muslims. I am scratching
my brain . Are there any clues?
Could the latest poster boy for the BBC Azeem Rafiq give us
a clue? Surely Muslims of Pakistani heritage could not be
a reason. Ok Pakistan doesn’t recognize Israel and despise
Israel. But how could this have anything to do with the British
Pakistani community in the UK? It’s like saying that most of
the grooming and raping of women and girls comes from
the same folk.
Has the change of demographics changed in the UK so much
so that the increase of attacks has anything to do with it ?
I am as confused as I am, with where most of the knife crime
and deaths come from. I am not sure that I am in agreement
with the BBC London Programme that it is mostly depravation,
the police and the Toreeees who are the prime causes.
It’s all very confusing , isn’t it?

Fos, I have wondered the same, as there is no indication by the media as to who exactly the perpetrators are. I’ve only seen ancient news footage of abusive and vocal yobs outside schools in N.London, but a young Jewish couple were interviewed on a housing estate in the north and sadly gave an account of their persecution. So who is doing this ?
Can Deborah shed some light on this ?

You probably did not mean it, but the juxtaposition of “extreme far right” and “Nazi” to the name of Tommy Robinson may, to some unthinking people, suggest a connection. TR emphatically could not be called either of those things, even if they represented a significant reality in this country, which they don’t.

Sopel has written a piece in the Daily Mail about America Trump & Biden which throws into the spotlight his distorted deluded view (or maybe it’s lies) about the political history and current affairs of the USA.
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-10275207/JON-SOPEL-tells-savoured-day-Trumps-presidency.html
For instance:
“Biden has made strenuous efforts to lower the political temperature, and in his view, at least, is far less polarising than Trump.”
Biden has made not one iota of effort to lower political division, and even left wing commentators will admit to that. He promised in the campaign to do so, but once in office has done the opposite. The only way in which he is less polarising is the unity of people opposed his presidency.
“But America’s chaotic departure from Afghanistan, the perception that the far Left of the Democratic Party holds too much sway, and dissatisfaction over people being told they have to be vaccinated have all contributed to a slump in his approval ratings.”
This is not true, although it has certainly added to the approval ratings, but the most important factor, Sopel like many wealthy left wing elitists has not been affected by the rampant inflation which is affecting working class Americans. Inflation is probably the biggest single cause of the disapproval of American voters.
These were just a couple of paragraphs which stood out to me, but the whole article carries a tone of Sopels bias and inability to connect with the real America outside of Washington DC.
I wonder if he travelled to the catastrophic West coast cities of Seattle Portland, Los Angeles to see the collapse of civilisation there because of politics which he supports and fails to criticise or report the failure.
It’s an interesting insight into the mind of a man who surely knows what is going on but cannot admit it either to himself or his readers.

Congratulations to @JoeBiden on his election as President of the United States of America.
He ran a campaign on the values that we in the United Kingdom share – decency, integrity, compassion and strength.
And I want to congratulate @KamalaHarris on being elected Vice-President, the first woman of colour to take that role.
Their victory is one for hope and unity over dishonesty and division. Millions of Americans of all backgrounds and ages have come together to vote for a better, more optimistic future.

Former president Donald Trump in January became the first president in American history to be impeached twice. But being impeached is not the same as being convicted and kicked out of office or barred from ever holding it again.
That’s up to the Senate, which is conducting its trial of Trump. It’s the first time a former president has been the subject of such a trial.
Here’s how we got here, what’s happening and what will happen next.

Behind the scenes the emir of londonistan has been losing the plot – with the bus /tube system running out of money . Tube drivers are now regularly going on strike .
The emir has floated the idea of closing at least one tube line and dumpling a lot of bus routes if nut nut doesn’t bail him out again .
Meanwhile the emir is closing down most of London s roads so that millennial can casually cycle to their coffee shops and safe spaces .
I drive a car , a motor bike and sometimes a push bike – but to me the hostility towards the car is driving people to insanity – plus – of course he has just hit Londoners with a £12.50 failing charge for using cars maybe older than 6 years on their on roads . This hit me as mine is over 10 years old …..
Recently the emir admitted that one of the reasons he is running out of money is because the new congestion charge isn’t catching as many as they planned for – proving it wasn’t about the ‘environment ‘ but was about just making money to feed the bloated city hall .
As I said – this may be a local issue – but I don’t think the national BBC will touch it at all …

BBC Marr today with Raab:
Raab proposes watering down the standards of evidence for rape prosecutions to get convictions, but never for terrorism?
This is all driven by militant left-wing feminists. Almost 100% of rape allegations are between those who know each other. There is so much room for victim antagonism from a failed relationship to cloud the investigation.
One of Raab’s priorities is to ensure that the victim has her mobile returned to her as soon as possible. Loss of a mobile for a time deters victims from coming forward apparently! FFS…

Ritual moaning by Medical Mafia about their inability to run the NHS . All those highly paid – self regarding types who can’t sort their organisation out year after year – however much additional taxpayers’ cash is thrown at .
They have capacity for diversity advisors and layers of management which year after year fails – but hasn’t the capacity to deal with ill people .
Then – it ran an unchallenged Tony Blair about the need to vaccinate the world – because SA was the first to spot the latest brand of Chinese virus .
There was no question that it might have originated somewhere else .
Blair much prefers talking about ‘world problems ‘ instead of British ones – he must still have an ambition to get the top UN job – the opportunities for corruption there must be very attractive .

There is a UK governance convention that Government Ministers always protect their Civil Servants, they do not blame the Civil Servants when mistakes are made, when things go wrong the Civil Servants are not held accountable. I think this convention should now be done away with.
In Kent, despite the ever increasing population – well it is a great place to live, especially west Kent where I am not, unfortunately – the Civil Serpents wished to close a major hospital in East Kent.
Yes, honestly.
We have massive homebuilding going on across the county, especially in the east of the county. You need hospitals in that situation because housbuilding presents dangers to the workforce on site. Despite that increasing population, despite the home building, at the Department of Health the Civil Serpents wished to cut six major hospitals down to five in East Kent and I think there may have been plans to reduce bed capacity in at least one of the others.
It is time for the elected Government of the day to start hanging out some of these Civil Serpents to dry. Cummings knows it. Patel knows it. The PM knows it. But still they do nothing about the real problem in the UK.
