2 attempted rapes against a girl ..and other time molesting a boy.
The BBC story appeared at tea-time last night and I predicted it would be gone by morning. Which it is.
It’s a very significant story because it touches on the rape gangs. But the agenda is more important so it’s under the carpet already.
Hmm the reason it is not talked about is who the perps are.
That clip is from 14:45pm Tuesday

I sincerely hope the Bristol jury majority get the consequences of their decision visited on them in full and sooner rather than later.

I am deeply disturbed by this story:
Edward Colston statue: Four cleared of criminal damage
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-59727161
The reason is that they were very clearly guilty. According to police, there was no doubt at all. But they deliberately forced it to be a jury trial then they were found not guilty.
Now I don’t believe a single member of the jury thought they were innocent. Nor do I believe they were all BLM supporters. What I believe 100% is that they were scared to find them guilty because of what they thought would happen to them if they did.
It’s the same reason people did not dare tell pollsters they would vote for Bexit or Trump.
This is Left-Wing fascism getting out of control. Disappearing to the Gulags if you don’t conform is just a question of degree now. If they could, they would.
What will our government do about it?

Meanwhile the BBC has a bit of law breaking beyond the pale…
BBC News
The Capitol invaders whose pictures came to define the chaos of that day have all been rounded up.
No word on those who died or why, or how the one who killed another quietly got off.
The complete lack of reporting around the deaths is stunning.
All we get is ‘where 5 people died’ with the inference the death were because of the protests.
And the complete lack of scandal around the witholding of the cause of death for officer Sicknick – the only one they thought they could pin on protesters – and of the complete lack of reporting that police shot an unarmed woman has convinced me that we can no longer trust anything we are officially told.
We are in crisis here with political division, but the USA are much worse. Nothing which happens there surprises me now. It’s how the Nazis eventually seized total power. One small propaganda step at a time until they were confident they could get away with it.
Jan 6 / Capitol – the Tucker Carlson segment linked above …
Not only have I not been buying what the BBC are retailing for years – I’m always very suspicious of anything they choose to promote…
There are many lies that the BBC don’t have to tell but they just can’t help themselves…
The event that did it for me was ‘the Met’ telling us how they shot a man running and jumping over the barriers in a tube station, we assumed being persued, just like in all those ‘cop’ movies.
Eventually it came out that Jean Charles da Silva e de Menezes was shot seven times in the head and once in the shoulder while on a tube train.
The officer in charge of the operation, Cressida Dick, now heads the Met.

It’s Bristol….
– I’d add silly tattoos to the list of crimes
TOADY Watch #1 – we now know for sure what we suspected for sometime
There is a mole in the Cabinet. What is more this mole appears to have a direct link to the BBC. Could Licence Fee Taxpayers’ money have changed hands?
I wonder . . …..
So far ‘liked’ almost exclusively by colleagues.
In addition to… Dom Joly.
Just discovered the new series of Father Brown is running. Went to check an episode for a ‘woke test’ before I sit down to watch one and started a 1 minute sample I found.
10 seconds in to the sample, a woman went into a traditional local village butcher – set in the 1950’s – and didn’t bat an eyelid to discover he is a black African. We can assume the historically-correct white actor who also went for the part stood no chance to get it because of his skin colour.
Deliberate BBC racism and hypocrisy on a scale I struggle to believe. How could you ever trust these people for anything else when they can blatantly lie like this for their own political agenda ?.
When I started school in the late 60’s there was one Asian and one black pupil in the whole of the primary/junior school of some 400 pupils. This must have been out in the sticks, right? Not quite. It was in Leicester.
Are there any black butchers now? Black people don’t seem to ‘do’ retail on the high street.
Now that the ‘chain’ butchers have gone and, even when they were operating, many butchers were white ‘family’ businesses hanging on in the face of shrink-wrapped supermarket competition.
They did the same thing in Midsomer murders after the woke mob went after them and ruined that one with racism as well. Another country family butcher as black as coal.
I would love to know how many butchers in the 1950’s were black-owned.
The word mess or messy would appear to be your BBC word of the day:
‘Novak Djokovic: The twists and turns of his Australia visa mess‘
‘Xi’an: The messy cost of China’s Covid lockdown playbook‘
A handy little word denoting the untidy state of things or a situation that is confused and full of problems.
Let’s move on…
I’m sure we’re all fascinated to have seen the British justice system exonerate those Black Lives Matter activists. Let’s just remind ourselves of the names of these four pale bourgeois hobby revolutionaries who went out on the mean streets of Bristol larping as Malcolm X and the Black Panthers – the Guardian knows their audience and is unashamed of naming their rather poncy-sounding names: ‘Protesters Sage Willoughby, Jake Scuse, Milo Ponsford and Rhian Graham celebrate after the not guilty verdict… the defence had urged jurers to “be on the right side of history”‘
The Daily Express asks, reasonably: ‘Statue “vandals” cleared… but WHERE will it all end?‘ – I’m rather afraid if one were lamenting the demise of Britain it already ended sometime during the premiership of this bloke: ‘The families of war heroes sent to their deaths want the Queen to ditch ex-PM Tony Blair’s knighthood‘ (Daily Star) – and the Iraq War was just the tip of the iceberg of his monumental work of undermining of Britain, her culture, history, traditions, constitution, laws, institutions, unity, sovereignty… justice system…
Speaking of tarnished awards: ‘GLOBE ROTTING The Golden Globes will go ahead without an audience, red carpet or celebrity presenters for the first time in 14 years. THE Golden Globes have lost their lustre after pandering to the woke brigade and all-but cancelling themselves.‘ (Sun)
The left-leaning and highly coronaphobic ‘i’ newspaper eventually finds some migrant chancer it is happy to see arrested, detained and: ‘Deported‘ – one can just imagine some Aussies chuntering: “Bloody Serbs coming over here winning all our tennis competitions”
In the same organ former-celebrity Davina McCall is in the news yet again proving she has about the busiest PR agent in the business: ‘Opinion Davina dish the dirt and give us what we want!‘
The Telegraph comments: ‘Oh no, not again. Why some people are prone to getting covid‘ – one doesn’t have all the statistics to hand but our hero NHS staff appear to be particularly susceptible (about this time of year): ‘Staff sickness & Covid surge causes chaos in hospitals‘ (Daily Mirror) – since those Nightingale Hospitals seem to have been a failed white elephant, couldn’t we find a Mary Secole to get in there and sort things out?
Diana, the people’s princess, Blair, the people’s enemy.
Richly deserved.
‘Now she’s been named the UK’s most promising new star’.

They infer it is official when in fact it’s their own agenda-based nonsense.

Sssssush!! for goodness sake! Don’t draw attention to us woodburners. Like the sudden and unnecessary fetish to ban crossbows, some weirdos will demand totally banning woodburners. And we all know who Government listen to.

My challenging the local climate consensus got me banned ( via complaints from Greenies I suspect) from commenting in the local rag… for merely pointing things like why import fracked gas when there’s 100 years supply under Lancashire and that utility solar PV electric really isn’t “utility” and wouldn’t exist without subsidy larceny.
The eco-loons rarely indulge in evidenced debate – but they do indulge in pile-ons and name calling by the shedload… Mostly a lefty mob in my neck of the woods bullying and shoving.

I don’t think ‘jam tomorrow’ or ‘climate conferences ‘ as well as the wimpy Attenborough type bbc propaganda will hold back demands for lower direct debits very long …
It might be the first big divide since Brexit …
If Starmer was PM, we would be funding everything for net-zero AND there would be no increases in energy bills.
According to what the BBC wrote the other day anyway.
And no effort whatever to stop the dinghies. Indeed, Starmer & Co would charter boats to go to France and pick them up – to avoid any any risk of accidents you understand.

re: The Colston Four
I signed that petition.
The jury should have found them guilty and the judge should have put them on probation.
The principle of them not being guilty of any crime is simply unacceptable.
All part of the now ubiquitous break down of Law and Order. Follow the US with State Prosecutors financed by Soros.

Calls to remove ‘racist’ Gandhi statue in Leicester
By Alex Regan
BBC News
Published12 June 2020
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leicestershire-53025407
Churchill’s statue in Parliament Square has been boarded up because of fears it could be vandalised in future protests.
Remove BBC Statue by Paedophile Eric Gill
https://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/remove-bbc-statue-by-paedophile-eric-gill
Gill had an incestuous relationship with his sister, sexual relationships with two of his pubescent daughters and even his family dog.
You’ve seen the video, I’ve seen the video, we’ve all seen the video, the ‘Colston 4’ are as guilty as a fox in a chickenhouse with two dead chickens in his mouth and another shoved down his trousers.
‘Not Guilty’ should never have been an option.
Message to woke anarcho-lefties: vandalise all you want, providing it’s for a leftie cause.
TOADY Watch #2 – you do have to wonder at the intelligence of some people
The Bee Lady interviews a French woman, a former holder of a public office (sorry, cannot remember name or political position) on the subject of compulsory Covid vaccination. I cannot help but wonder at the intelligence of the inoculated in what they understand of medications, vaccines and taking both.
Old Goat will correct me if wrong, but I seem to recall that the French health service and hospitals are not a State service but a mix of public and private, largely private. Macron wants to make Covid vaccination compulsory (may be an Election ploy – a bit of a gamble) but he doesn’t have a public hospital system that has to be saved from the unvaccinated Covid-wise.
But what do the Covid-inoculated fear from the unvaccinated? Why do they fear them? It is the unvaccinated that are at risk from the Covid-inoculated not the other way round.
The Bee Lady did not think to ask.
You do have to wonder.
Up2
I’m really avoiding the BBC now – but on vaccination ? Personally I see it as a sort of comfort blanket against a nasty enemy . Maybe the vaccines / boosters work – maybe not – but if offered I will take them as part of my fight against the virus .-same with the mask .- distancing and ventilation .
It’s the same with this site and the BBC – apart from not paying for it or contributing to viewing /listening figures it’s the best I can do .
With regard to the unvaccinated being the dominant users of ITUs – is that true ? What happens to people afterward ? How many people get long term effects ? What are they ?
I don’t know the answer to those questions and wonder if any version of truth will be known .
Fed,
“With regard to the unvaccinated being the dominant users of ITUs – is that true ?”
With Londonistan being top of the list no doubt. That’s what you get when the foreign population mainly in Londonistan but anywhere in Britain is convinced that racist whitee is trying to do them down one way or another. In those circumstances, you may not be prepared to take a vaccine from, ‘Oxford’ or indeed, ‘Berlin’. Highly infected whitee territory (for the moment). Had it been designed in Bangladesh or Rwanda it might be a different story.
G
Two elements of covid infection ( and consequences ) seem to be brushed over to me –
The first is race . Are coloured people more likely to seriously affected / die as a result of covid infection ?
( if you recall there was stuff about coloured NHS staff being more affected )
The second is weight . Are fat people less able to fight the virus . Is it the same with other viruses ?
With all the time and resources the MSM/BBC has – I am surprised this hasn’t received more attention .
As for londonistan – I used to travel on public transport – mainly the tube and occasionally the bus . But I noticed that both ventilation was non existent and that third worlders of various tints – coloured and not – did not wear masks – so I changed by mode of travel .
Maybe it’s Darwinism in action ..
I have a friend permanently banned from Twitter after asking how they differentiate between Delta & Omicron when Omicron wasn’t discovered until November, yet the testing is the same as always.
I don’t think you need to be a conspiracy theorist to recognise something is very wrong with all of this.
Never mind the BBC telling us that 3 jabs stopped omicron but 2 jabs didn’t.
Then in the very same breath telling us how we don’t know anything about omicron yet.
Each time they get aways with it, they push the boundary a little bit more the next time. Left Wing fascism is on the rise.
Stuck record mode
Tr, it is the lack of intelligent questioning from the BBC part of the media that annoys me. For example:
1. Are the tests, PCR & LF, accurate and if not what are the failure rates?
2. Can the tests differentiate between coronaviruses?
3. Is it possible that contamination occurs? (Same question for inoculations.)
4. Could anyone have reason for making things worse?
5. Is anyone playing politics with this? (BBC will not ask that question because they definitely know the answer. Kuenssberg was/is. The BBC are thereby implicated.)
This should answer the question of the PCR testing failure.
As of January 1, 2022, the CDC (Centre for Disease Control) in a request to the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) withdraws its endorsement of the RT-PCR test.
The CDC acknowledges (with innuendos) that the PCR test does not effectively differentiate between Covid-19 and Seasonal Influenza.
Amply documented and analyzed by numerous scientists, the RT-PCR test does not detect or identify SARS-CoV-2 and its variants.
While the CDC does not officially acknowledge that the RT-PCR test is invalid, it nonetheless calls for it to be withdrawn.
It is worth noting that almost a year ago, in January 2021, the WHO also questioned the validity of the PCR test which it had itself put forth at the very outset of the covid crisis.
If the PCR test is invalid as intimated both by the CDC and the WHO, the 260 Million so-called “Confirmed Covid-19 Cases” collected and tabulated Worldwide since the outset of the alleged pandemic are meaningless.
Why therefore are the medical authorities still using a PCR test to establish whether a person has the virus or not?
…..but is this not one particular PCR test, which was advised last July?
And there are many others from which to choose.
https://www.cdc.gov/csels/dls/locs/2021/07-21-2021-lab-alert-Changes_CDC_RT-PCR_SARS-CoV-2_Testing_1.html
Fed, I would, too, but it is the curious mental disconnection that I cannot get my head around. Everyone together with the world seems to be going insane, totally mad.
Except me, of course.
And other posters on here.
Unvaccinated against Covid dominating English NHS beds? Yes. The statistics indicate the majority are but it is far from the 90% claimed by the BBC and others early on. Much less. And no questions are asked 1. as to why they are in ITU (maybe for other reasons than Covid), and more importantly, no questions asked as to why they are unjabbed against Covid.
They may be cancer patients unable to have a Covid ‘vaccine’.
They may have other medical conditions that prevent Covid inoculation.
They may have (Human Rights) religious reasons for not taking the Covid ‘vaccines’.
They may have racial reasons for not taking a ‘vaccine’ against Covid.
They may have had the Covid virus before and have been advised not to take the ‘vaccines’.
Lies and more lies spewed out to continue the programme of fear, and subjugation-It really does appear that the British Public have fallen for the utter lies that run out across the media daily, without questioning any part of what is going on. Once we would not have tolerated such an offensive totalitarien attitude from the Government.
Mea culpa!
Watching Al Beeb ‘news’, which stated that the ‘rioters’ believed that Trump had ‘urged them’, iirc, to attack the Capitol. It is proven that Trump was still talking, some distance away, when FBI agents provocateur were inciting such rioting as took place.
Opinions stated as fact as per usual.
A Farrakhan supporter ran over and killed a Capitol officer last year, and the media barely noticed
BBC Moaning Emole
A year on from the US Capitol riot
It’s been a year since the US Capitol riot, images from which shocked the world when Trump supporters stormed the building as Congress certified Joe Biden’s presidential election victory. It’s seen as an attack on the seat of American democracy, and to mark the anniversary of the moment when US lawmakers were forced to cower from the mob in the gallery of the House of Representatives, Mr Biden will give a speech. He’ll say his predecessor Donald Trump holds “singular responsibility” for the “chaos and carnage”. So far 725 suspects have been arrested in connection with the attack. Read more here.

Ashers ‘gay cake’ case: European court rules case inadmissible
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-59882444
Breaking headline news no less. A bakery wouldn’t write ‘Support Gay Marriage’ on a cake so it has ended up at the ‘European Court of Human Rights’. Who rejected it. But not because it is simply ridiculous, but because he didn’t follow the red-tape properly.
And why the rest of the world world now laughs at how ridiculous the West (with the BBC as a front-row cheerleader) has become.
My question is : who has funded the lawyers for this ?. The money trail always tells us who is really behind it.
JohnC,
Legal Aid or Soros?
George Floyd’s great niece shot apparently while in bed. Lefty press: how sad, nothing to see here, move on…
Obviously not the work of a white police officer then!
Same as the young black girl who had been shot dead through the head by other blacks in a drive-by shooting at her home at the same time.
Her life was not as important as a career criminal drug addict high on drugs who was killed by a cop kneeling on his neck to hold him down after resisting arrest. She didn’t get a gold coffin.
It all makes me sick.
Probably not any white person or the world media would be all over it.
I’m not sure if I’ve got this right, I’m occasionally a little out of the loop, but…
Is it true that “Sick note” Starmer, who once again is isolating with covid, has been off six times and lost over 50 working days in the last couple of years? I mean, FFS!
You know, I worked for over 30 years…nothing unusual in that…and had my full share of “man flu” down the years. But 50 days!
If this geezer was in any sort of meaningful employment, or (God forbid) an “essential worker” he’d have had his useless arse kicked out months ago. WTF is wrong with him? He seems to live in his silly bloody mask and lectures everyone else to do the same. He’s had more jabs than a punch drunk heavyweight and makes sure everyone sees him socially distancing. And yet, here we are and once again poor old Sick Note” is off again.
Sack him!
I wonder if Starmer manages to squeeze in some remote working on his legal side gigs while he’s pulling a Westminster sickie?
TOADY Watch #2a – it is surprising when ….
…. the anti-fascist, pro-EU and its institutions-BBC (ECJ etc), together with the BBC’s love of ‘Human Rights’ are not mentioned at all by the BBC in connection with compulsory Covid vaccination. You would think the BBC would be enraged that the Italians would be making Covid vaccination compulsory for over 50s and Emmanuel Macron hinting darkly that his Government may make it compulsory in France for all age groups. You would think the BBC would object. Wrong. They seem to be curiously neutral.
And there is no sense of history from the BBC and the Bee Lady. The Bee Lady is no spring chicken. She must remember bolshie French farmers blockading roads and ports or more recently, les Gilets Jaunes. Don’t mention the war. No mention of medical experiments and the N-word at all in Martha’s remarkable interview.
Up2
I believe there is a ‘list ‘/ agreement between the government and the BBC on certain subjects – one – obviously is colour – another is Islam – and I suppose covid vaccination too .
I suppose that because we live in it – we don’t realise that we don’t live in a ‘free country ‘: there is no free speak – and there is an in built propensity to restrict and control language – conduct – attitudes ….
…BBC this morning and the correspondent doing a piece on Covid and restrictions.
He managed to find 3 people (one who could hardly put a coherent sentence together) who say the restrictions dont go far enough and Boris Johnson at the press conference just waffles (exact words) and constantly goes against the advice of the scientists, what..!!!
Please tell me if you know anybody that wants more restrictions.
It was one of the most bizarre pieces of journalism ive seen in a long while, even by the BBC’s very low standards.
Its quite obvious that possibly for once the Government may have got things right regarding restrictions and Omicron and the BBC are not happy with this fact..
Im genuinely shocked at this piece this morning. Blatant scare mongering by the BBC who will stoop to anything to get at this Government..
UNBELIEVABLE
I’d like to see a list of ‘experts ‘ aka sage members ‘speaking in a personal capacity ‘ in terms of who got their numbers right and who got them wrong –
Nut nut tried – yesterday – to defend the likes of Neil Ferguson ( always wrong ) by saying that all they are doing is doing modelling using sums … I thought ‘what crap ‘ – obviously common sense and previous results don’t seem factored in …
People should be better informed about the track record of ‘experts ‘ in order to make their own assessment of what they are saying ‘ claiming ..
Critiqued coronavirus simulation gets thumbs up from code-checking efforts
Influential model judged reproducible — although software engineers called its code ‘horrible’ and ‘a buggy mess’.
https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-01685-y
“Totally unreliable.” “A buggy mess.” Over the past month, software engineers have sharply criticized the code underpinning an influential coronavirus simulation by scientists at Imperial College London, one of several modelling exercises that helped sway UK politicians into declaring a lockdown. Some media articles even suggested that the simulation couldn’t be repeated by others — casting further doubt on the study. Now, a computational neuroscientist has reported that he has independently rerun the simulation and reproduced its results. And other scientists have told Nature that they had already privately verified that the code is reproducible.
Marky – I wonder if any model has proved ‘right ‘ – anywhere ? Are the yanks any good at it ?
I noticed a figure for 1 million infections a day in the US yesterday -all president trump ‘s fault of course ….
“all models are wrong” is a meme in the modelling community
It is to remind them that modelling is always different to the real world in the long run.
It’s a real shame that Ferguson & Co. are not paid by results….
If he was a horse racing tipster – he’d get a fortune from the bookmakers.
Marky – thanks – even recognising that computing a large number of variables is a tough gig – this character seems so consistently so far from the real result as to suggest he gets a different job ….
Ideal to run a nuclear power station ( just watched ‘Chernobyl’)…
They never show the failed models …

Personally I believe that an inspectorate investigative committee needs to be set up with the sole purpose of launching an inquiry, analysing the figures and comparing it with all that the profs and officials have been spewing out. The damage that this surge of one-sided data has created demands public scrutiny.
This committee should have the power to trawl through all the data including all created by the NHS.
We all have the right to know whether we have been conned or not. Any falsehoods need to be revealed and action taken against any culprits
He should be doing Thyme!

Gareth Lee started legal action back in 2014 after a Christian-run Belfast bakery refused to make him a cake with the slogan “Support Gay Marriage”.
The family firm Ashers said the slogan contravened their Christian beliefs.
The European court ruled Mr Lee’s case inadmissible, saying he had failed to exhaust all options in the UK courts.

I believe Gareth Lee launched this attack not because he felt his rights were being denied but because he hated the idea of a Christian Cakeshop and decided to try to bring it down via confrontation.
Any private business owner has 100% rights to decide whether he wishes to provide his services to any member of the public. If he was asked to create something that crossed his own religious convictions he should have every right to refuse.
Imagine for instance going into a Muslim operated store and demanding they served you pork sausages or bacon. There is no difference whatsoever!
Absolutely. I also suspect he tried as many places as possible looking for one who refused so he could make a scene.
And I wonder where he got so much money to risk fighting this crusade.
Did by chance anyone see this on Yahoo-disgraceful that this woman was made to suffer such humiliation.
A Christian nurse who was forced to quit her job after being told to remove her cross necklace was discriminated against, an employment tribunal has ruled.
Mary Onuoha, 61, was harassed and victimised by Croydon Health Services NHS Trust when she was told to stop wearing the cross due to an infection risk, according to the ruling.
It added this had created a “humiliating, hostile and threatening environment” for the nurse, breaching her human rights set out in the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR).
Mrs Onuoha resigned as an NHS theatre practitioner at Croydon University Hospital in south London in June 2020 following what she described as a two-year campaign against her when she refused to remove the cross.
The tribunal found the trust had constructively dismissed Mrs Onuoha from her job of 18 years.
Employment judge Dyal and two lay members, Mrs Foster-Norman and Ms Forecast, ruled that: “Applying common sense, it is clear to us that the infection risk posed by a necklace of the sorts the claimant used to wear, when worn by a responsible clinician such as the claimant, who complied with handwashing protocol, was very low.”
They said the trust had failed to properly deal with Mrs Onuoha’s grievances when she refused to remove the cross on religious grounds.
The tribunal added: “No real thought seems to have been given to whether it was really appropriate to discipline the claimant for doing something that in fact many others in the workforce (including more senior colleagues who worked just as closely with patients) were doing unchallenged.
“Equally, no real thought was given to the claimant’s point that others were wearing religious apparel in clinical areas and that she should be treated equally to them.”
I ask is not the headgear worn by Muslim women not also a health risk-one can only imagine what might be hiding under that particular head covering.
tarien “I ask is not the headgear worn by Muslim women not also a health risk-one can only imagine what might be hiding under that particular head covering.”
Strictly speaking covering hair enhances hygiene. Surgeons and theatre staff do it in OTs and workers in the food industry have to do it.
The government have produced a White Paper inviting consultation here.
Lee Rotherham says readers should “submit informed recommendations to Government (you can do so here) and not to leave it all to the usual suspects like Sinn Fein.”
The Human Rights Act 1998 (HRA 98) was introduced by Blair – who else – to “mask” re-interpretations (by activist lawyers) of the original intentions of the post-War European Convention on Human Rights.
“Many readers will be familiar with the thrust of this saga, but it needs repeating because whenever an effort is made to challenge this broken system, campaigners throw hyperbole onto newspaper front pages about protecting freedoms and democracy (ironically) from any attempt at change.”

BBC’s Horrorbin yet to opine
TWATO earlier:
Eustace says, we will convert “10,000 Hectares a year” to forests and re-wilding. Expert Lady Brooke interviews suggests it can be done and in conjunction with the pledge to grow 60% of our foodstuff. Personally, I would have immediately sent the interviewee back to her Moon circling some distant Planet.
Curiously, no mention of the housing shortage for immigrants. Why so?
“Most experts believe that we need to build 250,000 new homes per year,…”

They can’t all be right. Seems the public are being conned again with the assistance of our, “Worlds Most Trusted Broadcaster”.
Rather like the invisible, magic money tree, some seem to think the UK has unlimited land resources.
Given the option to vote for ONE of the following, which would it be?:
1. No more immigration, and dedicate fertile land to supplying as near 100% of our food as possible, with the rest left wild.
2. No more immigration, and dedicate 100% of our non-urban environment to rewilding (importing 100% of our food).
3. Unlimited immigration, ultimately building over the entire country, leading to not only 100% of our food needing to be imported, but also extinction of many native species and no/minimal wild spaces.
So many (admittedly mostly young city dwellers) seem to believe, despite all logic, they can actually have their cake and eat it.
Farage is not a zero-immigration guy

Countryfile dream of organic farming
The truth is big corps are free to do it
but largely they don’t, cos it is rubbish
You need much more land to grow the same volume of food.
Tales of organic farming giving big production almost always turnout to be false. eg Manasobu Fukuoka
BigBro, we have plenty of land in the UK.
Plenty to be left wild, that is.
Much of it is at many degrees to the horizontal, despite our lack of impressive mountains. Not easy to get tractors and combine harvesters up a 45 degree slope. Goats can be farmed and sheep, too, on hills although the latter prefer salt marsh and the meat tastes better. Cows are surprisingly good on steep slopes but the environmentalists don’t like cows and they especially don’t like cows breaking wind.
I’d like to think so Up2snuff, but around here (SW England) they’re currently building houses up steep hillsides, down steep hillsides, and in the decidedly boggy, deep valleys and swamps in between.
Not much land being left for farming, arable or livestock, let alone wildlife of any kind.
And still there’s ‘not enough’ new ‘homes’ being built… allegedly.
We don’t get too many immigrants, it’s fair to say, but plenty of Londoners… who are ‘immigrants’ as far as most locals are concerned, and when you ask “So, what made you want to relocated here then?” they all, shamelessly reply “The black tide.”
There are other parts of the UK that still have plenty of unbuilt over land, I grant you, but not ‘down South’, and not for much longer at current rates.
“We have plenty of land in the UK” says Up2
Every time I return to blighty i find more countryside is being destroyed on an industrial scale. Unlimited population growth is the dream of the socialists.

‘Jacob Rees-Mogg defends jury system amid criticism of Edward Colston statue verdict’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-59893024
‘But Mr Rees-Mogg said juries are the “great sublime protector of liberties”.’. I don’t think there is a single person in the UK who disagree with that.
But Jacob only defended the principle of the jury. He didn’t defend the outcome of this case as the BBC are trying to imply.
This trial has abused the jury system by the intimidation of mob rule.
These lowlife BBC scumbags are actually using this to try and discredit Jacob (who they hate from Brexit) in the eyes of those who support him. It stands out a mile how they don’t report any of the vast majority stuff he says that doesn’t suit them.
Presumably, most of the poster on this website would be overjoyed if a political party included abolishing the Telly Tax as a policy ?

Please sign to demand that the BBC remove the sculpture depicting a naked child, created by known paedophile Eric Gill, which is above the main entrance of BBC Broadcasting House.
Gill had an incestuous relationship with his sister, sexual relationships with two of his pubescent daughters and even his family dog.
The BBC likes to think a naked boy submissively leaning into the raised leg of a wizard is simply a metaphor for broadcasting. To the BBC Eric Gill was a major British artist rather than an a child and animal abuser.

1. Estimates relate to self-reported long COVID, as experienced by study participants, rather than clinically diagnosed ongoing symptomatic COVID-19 or post COVID-19 syndrome.
Study participants were asked to respond to the following questions: “Would you describe yourself as having ‘long COVID’, that is, you are still experiencing symptoms more than 4 weeks after you first had COVID-19, that are not explained by something else?” and, if so: “Does this reduce your ability to carry-out day-to-day activities compared with the time before you had COVID-19?” and “Have you had any of the following symptoms as part of your experience of long COVID? Please include any pre-existing symptoms which long COVID has made worse.”
6. We previously published estimates of the number of people with self-reported long COVID by ethnic group, Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) quintile group, employment sector, and health/disability status. We have suspended the ongoing publication of these experimental statistics pending a review of their quality.
“And those most likely to have long Covid are:
women
35- to 69-year-olds
people with underlying conditions
those working in health, social care and education”
Those working in health, social care and education… more likely because their work puts them ‘at risk’, or more likely because they know a good skive when they see one?

Mao Zedong: Memorialised in 2,000 statues

China is celebrating the 120th anniversary of former leader Mao Zedong’s birth.
Chairman Mao, the founding father of modern China, remains a hugely controversial figure and his legacy is still up for debate.
But he remains a presence in cities across China, in the form of more than 2,000 statues that were built to commemorate him.
…..
BBC News – Dictator of China writes himself into the constitution so he can be dictator forever. Not one person in the Chinese house stands up for their citizens because the dictator declares he’s dictator. 2000 communists vote for dictator. 100% dictatorship achieved!

Fury as BBC demands anti-Semitic bus attack victims reveal identities https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10375225/Fury-BBC-demands-victims-anti-Semitic-abuse-Oxford-Street-reveal-identities.html?ito=native_share_article-masthead
The BBC has demanded that teenagers who suffered anti-Semitic abuse in Oxford Street should reveal their identities before the corporation responds to a legal complaint over its report suggesting victims used ‘anti-Muslim slurs’.
The incident was treated as a hate crime by police, but in its original report of the incident, BBC News said ‘racial slurs about Muslims could be heard inside the bus’.
The claim was criticised by the Board of Deputies of British Jews and the Campaign Against Anti-Semitism and lawyers acting on behalf of the victims, who ‘categorically deny’ the slur was said, wrote to the corporation to contest it.
In response, the BBC said: ‘We will be unable to substantively further progress your legal complaint until you identify your clients.’
Leading legal expert Lord Carlile said the BBC’s demand was ‘wholly unacceptable’, while Jonathan Turner, executive director of UK Lawyers for Israel, accused the corporation of ‘attempting to intimidate the youngsters into dropping the claim’, the Jewish Chronicle reported.
It comes days after Rabbi YY Rubinstein, a contributor to BBC programmes including Good Morning Sunday and the Thought For The Day, resigned in a letter to the corporation.
