Tommy Robinson: The rancour, rhetoric and riches of brand Tommy
“It’s May 2019.
A small crowd surrounds a mobile screen on the Brinnington council estate in Stockport. They’ve gathered to hear Tommy Robinson who wants to become their Member of the European Parliament. He says he’s speaking for them – standing up against the elites in politics and the media.
“They don’t live where we live. They don’t experience what we experience,” he says.
But while Tommy Robinson was rousing the clutch of onlookers in this deprived corner of Greater Manchester, his four-bedroom country home was on the market for £900,000. The estate agency pictures show a Range Rover parked on the driveway, a hot tub in the garden and a TV above the bath.
The property remains on the market, but Robinson’s home will be a prison cell for the immediate future. On Thursday, he was jailed for nine months after being found guilty of contempt of court.
As he was taken to the cells Robinson winked to his supporters sitting in the public galley.
We all know that pale stale males are becoming
surplus to requirements at the BBC. But I believe
a trial at BBC news is now happening on Sunday’s
to completely eradicate the use of men on TV
in presenting and reporting the news. The perfect example being the 1PM news today.
Marianna Spring – I think as well, in, I mean…A lot of the conversation online has been very polarised, and we talk about cancel culture, and we talk about the culture wars, but actually that reckoning, that awakening, that there are things that are wrong and they are just wrong and supporting standing up against things that are wrong, it isn’t up for debate. And a lot of the conversation around taking the knee has been about that really. Clive Myrie – We as a society should be listening to their reasons as to why they are taking the knee are not placing our own ideas about taking the knee on their heads.
So according to Ms Spring there are certain views that can’t be challenged and according to Mr Myrie the football fans can’t criticise the kneeling players but he can criticise the fans.
I am not a football fan at all but I should think those that are pay good money to watch football, not to see a pack of poseurs. A bit like paying for a plumber then watching, waiting and paying for him to roll out his prayer mat before opening his tool box.
Marianna “there are things that are wrong and they are just wrong and supporting standing up against things that are wrong, it isn’t up for debate”
That is a 100% true
..and the next ITBB article shows she is the butt of that
It quotes her
that terrible tragedy where so many people were killed *off the coast of the UK*
*a large number of them were from Afghanistan*.
That is two falsehoods that can’t be contested
– Out of 27 only 4 were Afghans ..that is not a large number
– The dinghy left the French coast and was far nearer to France at the time it deflated
although close to the border line, the border is quite a bit further out from UK land than French land at that point
So it is correct to say the incident occurred “off the coast of FRANCE”
Yes. The BBC has been sold a pup here, as they say. The headline alone is highly misleading and should be corrected. (eg Lord is singular and they are a small group of *Tory* MPs). And, yes, background context of these MPs is all-important… https://t.co/EcEK5XGnQ2
About 20 years ago in one of my complaints to the BBC I mentioned that i would be contacting Ofcom about the complaint. Amazingly, I got a letter back from Offcom BEFORE i’d even sent them the complaint !! ! Proof indeed that Ofcom and the BBC were looking after each other and not acting independently..

“Witch-hunts affected everybody, not just the witches. It affected whole communities,” said White. It became a way to rid a community of anyone viewed as a problem. “People who questioned the authority of the church or state could easily become a target. Women learned it was safer to stay quiet than to speak up or stand out.”
Now why does that ring a bell?
And does that make Tommy Robinson a modern day witch?
The fact that Trump and Brexit both defied the polls because people were scared to admit they were going to vote for them will be lost on the people at the Guardian and the BBC.
There is a hole about 3 feet high in one side of a tent.
‘No-one was injured in the incident.’
‘There has been no impact on the testing services’
It happened at 12:40am on New Years eve so it was clearly by some drunks. Hardly an ‘attack’.
But what strikes me about this is why on Earth did the BBC decide to make such an insignificant event into front page, headline news ?.
Goebbells would be proud. I am seeing more and more similarities with the BBC with the Nazis as they keep nudging the line in the sand a bit further out. But then they were ideological driven socialists as well who also thought the ends justified their means.
Obviously we’ll only have the B-team in the office over there at the BBC online news office today, but just look at the tired old journalistic tropes:
Man Bites Dog: ‘South Korean crosses DMZ in rare defection to North Korea’
Panic Now & Beat the Rush: ‘Covid: Workplaces told to plan for absences of up to 25%’
Could This Happen to You?: ‘Lionel Messi: Paris St-Germain forward isolating after testing positive for Covid-19’
If It Bleeds, It Leads (Just for a momet or two in certain well-defined instances): ‘Zaian Aimable-Lina: Second murder arrest after boy stabbed to death’
Strawman: ‘EU flag removed from Arc de Triomphe after right-wing outrage’
Advertising Disguised as News: ‘BBC Sound of 2022: Colourful rapper Central Cee kicks off the countdown’
Human-Interest Story: ‘What it’s like being a Christmas mental health volunteer’
It’s not only what the BBC report, its what they do not report.
Just over a week ago a man, an effnik, got into Windsor Castle and announced his mission to kill the Queen.
Anyone remember that, seen anything about it lately?
Countryfile has a new phrase for “repeats”
“John Craven presents a selection of stories from the past year of young people working in farming and conservation projects.”
Countryfile just now, an Asian lass and a bunch of mainly black blokes fellwalking , camping and climbing, hardly any whites mentioned or shown, why are the BBC pushing this racist stuff?
Craig looked at the heavy use of smear labels and detected that the article was not news but agenda pushing EU flag removed from Arc de Triomphe after right-wing outrage
EU flag removed from Arc de Triomphe after right-wing outrage
The French government denies bowing to far-right pressure over
The article writer started with the idea that the EU is nice and only monsters oppose it.
The writer’s word for monster is “right-wing/ far right”
Craig thought since its main job is agenda pushing the article probably is not accurate.
And sure enough left-wing politicians had also spoke against that EU flag.
HappyNew Year to all and thanks to fedup and the all those that keep the wheels turning.
Not Al Beeb (I’m doing very well at avoiding any bbc output) but absolute gutter press from Sky website. Is it any wonder that conspiracy theories do so well…
BBC did a report on Marjorie Taylor Greene getting banned from Twitter
What for ? after she had tweeted on Saturday, falsely, about “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths” in the US.
Come on BBC will you quit reporting that people are banned, without simply quoting the banned item
The crucial thing is the BBC article omits the chart.
An official chart that backs her claim that there are extremely high deaths
compared to previous years vaccine deaths Is her tweet misleading ? Absolutely yes, cos she too missed important context
The tally depends on self reporting by families
It is not a chart of deaths that have ALL been validated to have been caused by the vax.
Secondly the context is there are magnitudes more Covid vaccines
Other vaccines happen to the whole population, through 70 years
Here they are trying to each adult 3 vax in just 1 year.
Just watching “Landsacapers” on Sky every other person is BME, police, Judiciary etc. What could have been a great series is ruined by Sky’s relentless pursuit of woleism…….it really is pathetic. And I hope the real characters involved in the case take umbrage.
Maybe someone here recommended it .
Anyway good interview with Dr. Robert Malone one of the developers of the new type of mRNA vaccines.
He’s had 2 jabs and a bad case of covid early on.
So is experienced ..
Says those having had covid, are more likely to have a bad reaction to the jabs.
Talks about many side effects of the vaccines too.
Agree or disagree with him, it’s interesting hearing the anti vax arguments from an expert, the kind of discussion main stream media should be allowing and having.
Watched all three hours.
Calm, reasonable debate without interrupting each other.
Interesting to note both Malone, the inventor of mRNA technology, and Mullis, inventor of the PCR test, both banned on social media for their concerns over the “vaccine”
The Great Reset or Common Purpose via WHO and the UN to which I firmly suspect the BBC to be signed up want to allow only one narrative and that is that all populations must be made to accept the dictates of their particular mantra.
The BBC are therefore willing to present only the side of the story that their masters have handed to them.
This makes the BBC a propaganda arm of the Globalists.
The end game is that there is to be no individuality or personal viewpoints, you accept the rules coming from them or you will be silenced.
Coming down the line…. unlimited abortions, voluntary or otherwise, the idolatry of unusual groups such as LBGT etc. the redistribution of resources so that all humans regardless of contribution are handed the same. The transfer of entire populations from Nations with limited resources to ones with greater productivity and wealth. The extinction of any group calling for personal freedom (and thus a degree of control) in any way.
This is what Soros as an example has been working for all his life despite being a multi-billionaire and now we see Gates et. al. joining the club.
Of course the “club” will need strong leaders who will live above the common man and not be subjected to it’s dictates, Soros and gates will of course be among that group.
Hitler almost achieved this goal using exactly the same methods and millions of people died under the jackboot as a result.
Is it just me, or are the articles on Al Beeb’s webshite just getting more and more unreadable? I can barely understand the point of half the articles… in every sense, that is if they actually come to some kind of conclusion, some of them just seem to trail off, mid se…
“Do I not deserve to be Chinese just because I have small eyes?”
“That is what Chinese model Cai Niangniang wrote in a recent impassioned social media post, after old pictures of her went viral for all the wrong reasons.”
“For several days she had been attacked online for being “deliberately offensive” and “unpatriotic”, over a series of advertisements she had appeared in for Chinese snack brand Three Squirrels.”
“Her apparent crime? Having narrow eyes.”
“Some social media users were so outraged that the company eventually removed the ads online, and apologised for making people “feel uncomfortable” over them.”
“Amid a growing sense of online nationalism and anti-West sentiment in China, some have seized upon these advertisements as examples of racism towards Chinese people. By featuring models with narrow eyes, critics say these companies are perpetuating Western stereotypes of Chinese faces.”
In other words, we’re racist if we DON’T use models of non-white ethnicity in ads, and we’re racist if we DO?
But, hang on a minute these ads were made in China, by Chinese people… AND we’re STILL the ones to blame?!
Woke WILL eat itself, it seems… good, can’t happen soon enough.
Meanwhile, I have to admit I think Cai Niangniang is rather lovely, especially those smoldering err… stereotypical Western, all natural, totally Chinese, not at all Chinese, and shamefully unpatriotic eyes of hers.
It appears the BBC are having one last desperate attempt to tar the Government over the lack of Covid restriction over Christmas.
The lead stories are all about the number of NHS staff off work having (self) tested positive. They have even dragged out the old chestnut about the NHS having to use robots for some medical tasks due to the pressure on staff.
Meanwhile the teaching unions are also having another go by spitefully demanding children wear masks in class (excluding teachers from this rule of course!).One might assume they would prefer it if all children just didn’t go to school at all, ever.
This is all so obviously tub-thumping and placard waving and is two sides of the same duplicitous coin.
The BBC of course shares DNA with both of the above being gigantic, public-funded and 100% job secure, working or not.
Meanwhile North of the Border, the Queen of Scotland appears to have gone to ground after imprisoning the population over the festive period for what is looking more and more like purely anti-English political power-play.
There is a limit to how long these people can use the population like lab-rats in their quest for political power.
Meanwhile the GP’s quest to banish surgeries appears to have been a huge success. No doubt it has contributed magnificently to the fall in the statistics of people visiting their doctor so what’s not to like?
Five Races Under One Union was one of the major principles upon which the Republic of China was founded in 1911 at the time of the Xinhai Revolution.Its central tenet was the harmonious existence under one nation of what were considered the five major ethnic groups in China: the Han, the Manchus, the Mongols, the Hui, and the Tibetans.
Despite the uprisings targeting a Manchu-dominated regime, Sun Yat-sen, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing unanimously advocated racial integration, which was symbolized by the five-color flag. They promoted a view of the non-Han ethnicities as also being Chinese, despite them being a relatively small percentage of the population.
It was only a matter of time until the blue shirts came up in an interview… thanks to the Observer for talking to me about how we do our explainer videos. https://t.co/MvsdRT9y3m

— Simon De Cogan #FBPE #FreeAssange #FBPA (@psymdec) January 2, 2022
BBC: ‘Covid: English secondary pupils to be tested before starting term‘ – which is just about the only form of rigorous testing our teacher unions seem to want school kids to undergo these days.
‘Disruption to children’s education this term “ineviable” says heads’ chief‘ (‘i’) – just the sort of “can’t do attitude” the chronically coronaphobic ‘i’ newspaper loves to hear from our educationalists. And also apparently from our medics…
‘NHS staff shortages now so acute it may have to cancel non-urgent care‘ – that will be news to all the millions of patients on waiting lists already having had their care further postponed.
Seems this can’t do attitude has become a national disease – the formerly patriotic Times talks cricket: ‘England players on the Ashes tour are at the end of their “mental tether with Covid”‘
The malaise starts at the top as the fish rots from the head: ‘The UK government has “all but given up” hope of agreeing a deal with France to solve the Channel migrant crisis before the French presidential elections in April‘ (Times)
Seems our BBC has acquired some interesting NHS data: ‘Covid: Thousands needed hospital treatment after lockdown DIY‘
This one is quite a poser. Should we criticise these “can do” amateur Barry Bucknell’s (there’s one for the teenagers) for courting danger and bed-blocking genuine covid cases or alternatively applaud them for social distancing themselves from taxing the services paid handimen?
‘New NHS figures show that thousands of people injured in household accidents were admitted to English hospitals during Covid-19 lockdowns. The 2020/21 figures for England were obtained by the PA news agency and found accidents fell in many categories as people spent more time indoors.‘
Couple of points here. As per usual the BBC distance themselves from actual active investigative journalism on our behalf, with a credit to the PA (Press Agency) but it is good to know our NHS isn’t so under pressure or incredibly overwhelmed that the statistics department can’t shove out certain strategic numbers.
We note there’s no BBC by-line for this one – apparently no one there at the Beeb wants to own it.
Still, given the number of accidents fell; and yet the headline frets that thousands were admitted to hospital, are we not being fed mixed messages?
‘But numerous incidents, including eight people over the age of 90 who needed hospital treatment after falling from playground equipment, were recorded.‘ – Oh, I see we’re being presented with an entertainment piece – what a jolly funny thing. Ha ha, grandad lost his balance and fell off the jungle gym.
Were it not for covid one imagines the BBC reframing this report as an urgent call for more respect for vulnerable senior playground accident syndrome victims.
A dark though crosses the jaded mind of Mr AsISeeIt – was grandad after sueing his local council for compo a la Uncle Albert in that Olnly Fools and Horses episode where the old chancer repeatedly took tumbles down open pub basement trap doors?
‘While the average age of these adventurers was nine-and-a-half years old, dozens of parents and grandparents were also injured.‘
And they say we over-cosset our children these days. Seems many young “adventurers” still boldly go to the local park and play on the swingset, roundabouts and slides – what intrepid adventurous souls we have bred.
‘Despite spending more time at home, the number of people needing assistance after being struck by lighting rose from three cases in 2019/20 to 18 in 2020/21.‘ – Will they never learn? if only they had obeyed the stay indoors lockdown regulations. Climate crisis weather weirding we wonder? Or perhaps mistaken attempts by people out with their mobile phone cameras to contribute to the BBC’s Weather Watchers ‘Sign up to share photos with thousands of Weather Watchers and across the BBC
This quote should inform our journos: “Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.” – so said Alexander Pope.
And here is the news… ‘George Alagiah “I’ve been lucky but cancer will get me in the end”‘ (Daily Express) – statistically, that’s going to be true for most of us, George. And due to our response to covid consuming the NHS rather more of us in future. We patiently await the BBC trumpeting the NHS data on that for us.
Daily Star headlines tend to bounce between heatwaves and big freezes – today they flip the weather coin and it comes up cold: ‘We’re set for a polar plunge. Back in the freezer. Arctic shock as temperatures plummet to -10c‘ – one day the good people over there at the Star may perhaps mature somewhat and figure out the changeable seasonal nature of the British weather.
Perhaps all our journalists should also take note of this timely Daily Mail feature: ‘How to calm you mind and clear your thoughts. Paul McKenna‘

The main, first, headline news on BBC Toady this morning was that secondary schools will require pupils to wear masks in class and take lateral flow tests and may have to do some remote teaching when they re-open after the hols.
But the secondary school where I help out has known about this for about a month. The tests are in school in a designated suite and you cannot test all the kids simultaneously. So they are coming back two year groups at a time with remote learning for those waiting to rejoin in person. Meanwhile, the local health board advised us to use masks because of several outbreaks we had,
In other words, it has all been planned for several weeks and is not news at all.
Yet it was the main headline news. Why?
Because the BBC has an agenda, that’s why.

830,632 customer complaints made to the @BBC , only 418 referred by them to @Ofcom … who investigated ….1..ONE ! Just ONE ! Transpires that 10 from 14 of the Ofcom panel are ex BBC. How ridiculous is that ? A real disgrace.
You can see why Liz Truss is so popular in some Conservative party circles – and also why, for exactly the same reason, she is unfit for a senior position in any government. Thanks @Gabriel_Pogrundhttps://t.co/18iPnY23Tx
The BBC wokies desperately trying to push anti-Muslim racism in an article which itself is 100% racist.
A facebook page called ‘Muslim Hikers’ is fine apparently. I wonder if one called ‘White English People Only Hikers’ would receive such support.
And it appears we are not even allowed to criticise Muslim’s now. Going by the careful working of the article, I’ll assume none of the comments were racist.
I really am sick of their complete hypocrisy and double standards.
There are more Muslim terrorists and rapists than Muslim hikers.
Perhaps the ‘wholesome’ hikers could divert their energy into exposing their less than wholesome brothers.
It is my opinion now that whilst not actually agreeing with the terrorists and rapists, the vast majority of Muslims understand and sympathise with the reasons why they do it.
How else could such large gangs be kept so ‘secret’ ?. It must have been very common knowledge among the community. But one thing I have learned through life is that a Muslim will never betray another Muslim to an infidel. No matter what.
Because all their ‘representation’ groups (which are really just anti-white activists) would start screaming.
Whereas it seems all us white folk have no voice or representation at all. That’s what the BBC should be doing but they hate the silent white majority as much as the others.

I’m so glad publishing didn’t start in the last decade.
There was a news shortage yesterday. And bank hol Newsdesks are sometimes run by relatively junior staff. What’s more, the rt wing group has a great title.

Ex Beeboids finding their voices to defend The BBC against friendly fire by claiming they need more money to screw up more expensively is… actually funny.
I have been stirring a cautious course around the medical/virological side of the issue because I don’t know, and any who should know don’t seem to know any better.
However, as 2022 kicks, off, I am very concerned that the ‘solution’ seems to be crushing any discussion that does not conform.
What is it with the bbc and their continual, relentless obsession with muslims as perpetual victims
despite clear evidence to the contrary around the world
“Two prominent Indian stand-up comedians – Kunal Kamra and Munawar Faruqui – have said it’s becoming unsafe to perform after they received threats from right-wing Hindu nationalists.
Faruqui, who is Muslim, was jailed earlier this year for jokes he didn’t even tell. ”
“Since the Red Army’s invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the world has been shaken by jihadist terrorism. In forty years, Islamist terrorist attacks have multiplied, reaching as far as the heart of Western countries, New York, Madrid, London, Paris, but also Moscow, etc. By instilling feelings of fear and mistrust, through indiscriminate violence and its repetition, Islamist terrorism fuels or reinforces the demands for authoritarianism and closure that are increasing in democracies.
“Thus, by way of illustration, we can establish that between 1979 and 2019, at least 33,769 Islamist terrorist attacks took place worldwide. They caused the deaths of at least 167,096 people. We can also say that Islamist terrorist attacks account for 18.8% of all attacks worldwide, but that they are responsible for 39.1% of the lives lost due to terrorism; or that, during the years studied, there has been an intensification of this violence and that the deadliest period is the most recent: from 2013 onwards, in our opinion, Islam has become the main cause (63.4%)
“…“Since the Red Army’s invasion of Afghanistan in 1979…”
Pity Al Beeb’s and other assorted Leftoids/Open Borders (for Muslims) Apologists/etc have such p-poor memories. For them, the wave of illegal immigrants, mostly from the ME but because of war-spread, sub-Saharan Africa as well, is 100% the fault of the West, and the UK/US in particular, so WE should take them all in.
Mind you, I would willingly offer up Sir Antony Charles Lynton Blair as a sacrifice to them.
As I keep being told on these pages, Saudi has a lot of money and is willing to spend it in the promotion of their religion.
This I am constantly reminded is a good thing as it means readers might save a ha’penny every decade, and that is an acceptable trade off for the Islamisation of Britain.

Tommy Robinson: The rancour, rhetoric and riches of brand Tommy
“It’s May 2019.
A small crowd surrounds a mobile screen on the Brinnington council estate in Stockport. They’ve gathered to hear Tommy Robinson who wants to become their Member of the European Parliament. He says he’s speaking for them – standing up against the elites in politics and the media.
“They don’t live where we live. They don’t experience what we experience,” he says.
But while Tommy Robinson was rousing the clutch of onlookers in this deprived corner of Greater Manchester, his four-bedroom country home was on the market for £900,000. The estate agency pictures show a Range Rover parked on the driveway, a hot tub in the garden and a TV above the bath.
The property remains on the market, but Robinson’s home will be a prison cell for the immediate future. On Thursday, he was jailed for nine months after being found guilty of contempt of court.
As he was taken to the cells Robinson winked to his supporters sitting in the public galley.

So according to Ms Spring there are certain views that can’t be challenged and according to Mr Myrie the football fans can’t criticise the kneeling players but he can criticise the fans.
I am not a football fan at all but I should think those that are pay good money to watch football, not to see a pack of poseurs. A bit like paying for a plumber then watching, waiting and paying for him to roll out his prayer mat before opening his tool box.

Marianna “there are things that are wrong and they are just wrong and supporting standing up against things that are wrong, it isn’t up for debate”
That is a 100% true
..and the next ITBB article shows she is the butt of that
It quotes her
That is two falsehoods that can’t be contested
– Out of 27 only 4 were Afghans ..that is not a large number
– The dinghy left the French coast and was far nearer to France at the time it deflated
although close to the border line, the border is quite a bit further out from UK land than French land at that point
So it is correct to say the incident occurred “off the coast of FRANCE”

The Guardian on a mission to absolve witches who were burned in the UK of guilt.
https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/jan/02/early-modern-witch-hunts-left-britain-with-collective-wound
The paragraph that stood out to me was …
“Witch-hunts affected everybody, not just the witches. It affected whole communities,” said White. It became a way to rid a community of anyone viewed as a problem. “People who questioned the authority of the church or state could easily become a target. Women learned it was safer to stay quiet than to speak up or stand out.”
Now why does that ring a bell?
And does that make Tommy Robinson a modern day witch?

Covid test centre damaged in fire raising attack
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-59851384
There is a hole about 3 feet high in one side of a tent.
‘No-one was injured in the incident.’
‘There has been no impact on the testing services’
It happened at 12:40am on New Years eve so it was clearly by some drunks. Hardly an ‘attack’.
But what strikes me about this is why on Earth did the BBC decide to make such an insignificant event into front page, headline news ?.
Goebbells would be proud. I am seeing more and more similarities with the BBC with the Nazis as they keep nudging the line in the sand a bit further out. But then they were ideological driven socialists as well who also thought the ends justified their means.

BBC did a report on Marjorie Taylor Greene getting banned from Twitter
What for ?
after she had tweeted on Saturday, falsely, about “extremely high amounts of Covid vaccine deaths” in the US.
Come on BBC will you quit reporting that people are banned, without simply quoting the banned item
The crucial thing is the BBC article omits the chart.
An official chart that backs her claim that there are extremely high deaths
compared to previous years vaccine deaths
Is her tweet misleading ? Absolutely yes, cos she too missed important context
The tally depends on self reporting by families
It is not a chart of deaths that have ALL been validated to have been caused by the vax.
Secondly the context is there are magnitudes more Covid vaccines
Other vaccines happen to the whole population, through 70 years
Here they are trying to each adult 3 vax in just 1 year.

So is experienced ..
Says those having had covid, are more likely to have a bad reaction to the jabs.
Talks about many side effects of the vaccines too.
Agree or disagree with him, it’s interesting hearing the anti vax arguments from an expert, the kind of discussion main stream media should be allowing and having.

The Great Reset or Common Purpose via WHO and the UN to which I firmly suspect the BBC to be signed up want to allow only one narrative and that is that all populations must be made to accept the dictates of their particular mantra.
The BBC are therefore willing to present only the side of the story that their masters have handed to them.
This makes the BBC a propaganda arm of the Globalists.
The end game is that there is to be no individuality or personal viewpoints, you accept the rules coming from them or you will be silenced.
Coming down the line…. unlimited abortions, voluntary or otherwise, the idolatry of unusual groups such as LBGT etc. the redistribution of resources so that all humans regardless of contribution are handed the same. The transfer of entire populations from Nations with limited resources to ones with greater productivity and wealth. The extinction of any group calling for personal freedom (and thus a degree of control) in any way.
This is what Soros as an example has been working for all his life despite being a multi-billionaire and now we see Gates et. al. joining the club.
Of course the “club” will need strong leaders who will live above the common man and not be subjected to it’s dictates, Soros and gates will of course be among that group.
Hitler almost achieved this goal using exactly the same methods and millions of people died under the jackboot as a result.

“China: Why some think “small eyes” are not beautiful”
“Do I not deserve to be Chinese just because I have small eyes?”
“That is what Chinese model Cai Niangniang wrote in a recent impassioned social media post, after old pictures of her went viral for all the wrong reasons.”
“For several days she had been attacked online for being “deliberately offensive” and “unpatriotic”, over a series of advertisements she had appeared in for Chinese snack brand Three Squirrels.”
“Her apparent crime? Having narrow eyes.”
“Some social media users were so outraged that the company eventually removed the ads online, and apologised for making people “feel uncomfortable” over them.”
“Amid a growing sense of online nationalism and anti-West sentiment in China, some have seized upon these advertisements as examples of racism towards Chinese people. By featuring models with narrow eyes, critics say these companies are perpetuating Western stereotypes of Chinese faces.”
In other words, we’re racist if we DON’T use models of non-white ethnicity in ads, and we’re racist if we DO?
But, hang on a minute these ads were made in China, by Chinese people… AND we’re STILL the ones to blame?!
Woke WILL eat itself, it seems… good, can’t happen soon enough.
Meanwhile, I have to admit I think Cai Niangniang is rather lovely, especially those smoldering err… stereotypical Western, all natural, totally Chinese, not at all Chinese, and shamefully unpatriotic eyes of hers.

It appears the BBC are having one last desperate attempt to tar the Government over the lack of Covid restriction over Christmas.
The lead stories are all about the number of NHS staff off work having (self) tested positive. They have even dragged out the old chestnut about the NHS having to use robots for some medical tasks due to the pressure on staff.
Meanwhile the teaching unions are also having another go by spitefully demanding children wear masks in class (excluding teachers from this rule of course!).One might assume they would prefer it if all children just didn’t go to school at all, ever.
This is all so obviously tub-thumping and placard waving and is two sides of the same duplicitous coin.
The BBC of course shares DNA with both of the above being gigantic, public-funded and 100% job secure, working or not.
Meanwhile North of the Border, the Queen of Scotland appears to have gone to ground after imprisoning the population over the festive period for what is looking more and more like purely anti-English political power-play.
There is a limit to how long these people can use the population like lab-rats in their quest for political power.
Meanwhile the GP’s quest to banish surgeries appears to have been a huge success. No doubt it has contributed magnificently to the fall in the statistics of people visiting their doctor so what’s not to like?

Five Races Under One Union was one of the major principles upon which the Republic of China was founded in 1911 at the time of the Xinhai Revolution.Its central tenet was the harmonious existence under one nation of what were considered the five major ethnic groups in China: the Han, the Manchus, the Mongols, the Hui, and the Tibetans.
Despite the uprisings targeting a Manchu-dominated regime, Sun Yat-sen, Song Jiaoren and Huang Xing unanimously advocated racial integration, which was symbolized by the five-color flag. They promoted a view of the non-Han ethnicities as also being Chinese, despite them being a relatively small percentage of the population.

Notes for journalists
BBC: ‘Covid: English secondary pupils to be tested before starting term‘ – which is just about the only form of rigorous testing our teacher unions seem to want school kids to undergo these days.
‘Disruption to children’s education this term “ineviable” says heads’ chief‘ (‘i’) – just the sort of “can’t do attitude” the chronically coronaphobic ‘i’ newspaper loves to hear from our educationalists. And also apparently from our medics…
‘NHS staff shortages now so acute it may have to cancel non-urgent care‘ – that will be news to all the millions of patients on waiting lists already having had their care further postponed.
Seems this can’t do attitude has become a national disease – the formerly patriotic Times talks cricket: ‘England players on the Ashes tour are at the end of their “mental tether with Covid”‘
The malaise starts at the top as the fish rots from the head: ‘The UK government has “all but given up” hope of agreeing a deal with France to solve the Channel migrant crisis before the French presidential elections in April‘ (Times)
Seems our BBC has acquired some interesting NHS data: ‘Covid: Thousands needed hospital treatment after lockdown DIY‘
This one is quite a poser. Should we criticise these “can do” amateur Barry Bucknell’s (there’s one for the teenagers) for courting danger and bed-blocking genuine covid cases or alternatively applaud them for social distancing themselves from taxing the services paid handimen?
‘New NHS figures show that thousands of people injured in household accidents were admitted to English hospitals during Covid-19 lockdowns. The 2020/21 figures for England were obtained by the PA news agency and found accidents fell in many categories as people spent more time indoors.‘
Couple of points here. As per usual the BBC distance themselves from actual active investigative journalism on our behalf, with a credit to the PA (Press Agency) but it is good to know our NHS isn’t so under pressure or incredibly overwhelmed that the statistics department can’t shove out certain strategic numbers.
We note there’s no BBC by-line for this one – apparently no one there at the Beeb wants to own it.
Still, given the number of accidents fell; and yet the headline frets that thousands were admitted to hospital, are we not being fed mixed messages?
‘But numerous incidents, including eight people over the age of 90 who needed hospital treatment after falling from playground equipment, were recorded.‘ – Oh, I see we’re being presented with an entertainment piece – what a jolly funny thing. Ha ha, grandad lost his balance and fell off the jungle gym.
Were it not for covid one imagines the BBC reframing this report as an urgent call for more respect for vulnerable senior playground accident syndrome victims.
A dark though crosses the jaded mind of Mr AsISeeIt – was grandad after sueing his local council for compo a la Uncle Albert in that Olnly Fools and Horses episode where the old chancer repeatedly took tumbles down open pub basement trap doors?
‘While the average age of these adventurers was nine-and-a-half years old, dozens of parents and grandparents were also injured.‘
And they say we over-cosset our children these days. Seems many young “adventurers” still boldly go to the local park and play on the swingset, roundabouts and slides – what intrepid adventurous souls we have bred.
‘Despite spending more time at home, the number of people needing assistance after being struck by lighting rose from three cases in 2019/20 to 18 in 2020/21.‘ – Will they never learn? if only they had obeyed the stay indoors lockdown regulations. Climate crisis weather weirding we wonder? Or perhaps mistaken attempts by people out with their mobile phone cameras to contribute to the BBC’s Weather Watchers ‘Sign up to share photos with thousands of Weather Watchers and across the BBC
This quote should inform our journos: “Some people will never learn anything, for this reason, because they understand everything too soon.” – so said Alexander Pope.
And here is the news… ‘George Alagiah “I’ve been lucky but cancer will get me in the end”‘ (Daily Express) – statistically, that’s going to be true for most of us, George. And due to our response to covid consuming the NHS rather more of us in future. We patiently await the BBC trumpeting the NHS data on that for us.
Daily Star headlines tend to bounce between heatwaves and big freezes – today they flip the weather coin and it comes up cold: ‘We’re set for a polar plunge. Back in the freezer. Arctic shock as temperatures plummet to -10c‘ – one day the good people over there at the Star may perhaps mature somewhat and figure out the changeable seasonal nature of the British weather.
Perhaps all our journalists should also take note of this timely Daily Mail feature: ‘How to calm you mind and clear your thoughts. Paul McKenna‘

The main, first, headline news on BBC Toady this morning was that secondary schools will require pupils to wear masks in class and take lateral flow tests and may have to do some remote teaching when they re-open after the hols.
But the secondary school where I help out has known about this for about a month. The tests are in school in a designated suite and you cannot test all the kids simultaneously. So they are coming back two year groups at a time with remote learning for those waiting to rejoin in person. Meanwhile, the local health board advised us to use masks because of several outbreaks we had,
In other words, it has all been planned for several weeks and is not news at all.
Yet it was the main headline news. Why?
Because the BBC has an agenda, that’s why.

The BBC wokies desperately trying to push anti-Muslim racism in an article which itself is 100% racist.
A facebook page called ‘Muslim Hikers’ is fine apparently. I wonder if one called ‘White English People Only Hikers’ would receive such support.
And it appears we are not even allowed to criticise Muslim’s now. Going by the careful working of the article, I’ll assume none of the comments were racist.
I really am sick of their complete hypocrisy and double standards.

There are more Muslim terrorists and rapists than Muslim hikers.
Perhaps the ‘wholesome’ hikers could divert their energy into exposing their less than wholesome brothers.

It is my opinion now that whilst not actually agreeing with the terrorists and rapists, the vast majority of Muslims understand and sympathise with the reasons why they do it.
How else could such large gangs be kept so ‘secret’ ?. It must have been very common knowledge among the community. But one thing I have learned through life is that a Muslim will never betray another Muslim to an infidel. No matter what.

On the bbc soap they only have white terrorist bombers and on the itv soap they had the only white grooming gang.

Because all their ‘representation’ groups (which are really just anti-white activists) would start screaming.
Whereas it seems all us white folk have no voice or representation at all. That’s what the BBC should be doing but they hate the silent white majority as much as the others.

These BBC cubicle/activist PR confected stories are getting tiresome.
The latter set them up knowing the bbc will drive things down nicely.
Or more likely strategise in concert.

Ok, I admit my sin. GBNews barking this morning and Sly as fatuous as ever so I tuned to Al Beeb.
Lots about Her Maje’s jubilee (no, not the one who poses nude with her pucker on view), the British one.
Wide angle views of previous jubilee celebrations…then the camera pans to…you guessed it…a close up of joyful Black celebrants.
How wonderful!

First came Esler… then Burley… then…
Ex Beeboids finding their voices to defend The BBC against friendly fire by claiming they need more money to screw up more expensively is… actually funny.

I have been stirring a cautious course around the medical/virological side of the issue because I don’t know, and any who should know don’t seem to know any better.
However, as 2022 kicks, off, I am very concerned that the ‘solution’ seems to be crushing any discussion that does not conform.

As ITBB has noted, across many categories this charge is led by The BBC.
I was worried by The BBC disinformation Unit from the outset and once took its boss to task. His bosses allowed him to excise any who tried.
Springster has taken some flak and seems made of sterner stuff, but it may be time to stop teasing and start serving up fast balls.
The BBC, like many entities whose ideologies it shares, are experts at stealing ground nibble by nibble.
Go mainstream with Clive spouting Ebony and Ivory fact free gibberish requires nipping in the bud.

What is it with the bbc and their continual, relentless obsession with muslims as perpetual victims
despite clear evidence to the contrary around the world
“Two prominent Indian stand-up comedians – Kunal Kamra and Munawar Faruqui – have said it’s becoming unsafe to perform after they received threats from right-wing Hindu nationalists.
Faruqui, who is Muslim, was jailed earlier this year for jokes he didn’t even tell. ”

and yet
“Since the Red Army’s invasion of Afghanistan in 1979, the world has been shaken by jihadist terrorism. In forty years, Islamist terrorist attacks have multiplied, reaching as far as the heart of Western countries, New York, Madrid, London, Paris, but also Moscow, etc. By instilling feelings of fear and mistrust, through indiscriminate violence and its repetition, Islamist terrorism fuels or reinforces the demands for authoritarianism and closure that are increasing in democracies.
https://www.fondapol.org/en/study/islamist-terrorist-attacks-in-the-world-1979-2019/
“Thus, by way of illustration, we can establish that between 1979 and 2019, at least 33,769 Islamist terrorist attacks took place worldwide. They caused the deaths of at least 167,096 people. We can also say that Islamist terrorist attacks account for 18.8% of all attacks worldwide, but that they are responsible for 39.1% of the lives lost due to terrorism; or that, during the years studied, there has been an intensification of this violence and that the deadliest period is the most recent: from 2013 onwards, in our opinion, Islam has become the main cause (63.4%)

“…“Since the Red Army’s invasion of Afghanistan in 1979…”
Pity Al Beeb’s and other assorted Leftoids/Open Borders (for Muslims) Apologists/etc have such p-poor memories. For them, the wave of illegal immigrants, mostly from the ME but because of war-spread, sub-Saharan Africa as well, is 100% the fault of the West, and the UK/US in particular, so WE should take them all in.
Mind you, I would willingly offer up Sir Antony Charles Lynton Blair as a sacrifice to them.

As I keep being told on these pages, Saudi has a lot of money and is willing to spend it in the promotion of their religion.
This I am constantly reminded is a good thing as it means readers might save a ha’penny every decade, and that is an acceptable trade off for the Islamisation of Britain.
