So what, s been learned from recent events surrounding the bBC
1) The Licence Fee for them is an addiction just like heroin or crack cocaine. Getting them off it will be just as difficult as drug addicts.
This was underscored by Mr Tim Davie’s affirmation of his relentless
pursuit of demonstrating that the LF was exceptional value for money!
2) They do not have a Complaints Dept. despite decades of commitment to the Complaints process. Bare faced liars .
3) They are effectively utilising the LF to pursue an anti British agenda filled with left wing wokeism and tick box diversity programmes.
4) They will act to undermine the Royal family.
5) They are anti competition and work to undermine local news resources’ by using the LF…to effectively put them down.
6) They detest the Conservatives and personally blame Boris for Brexit. They would do all in their power to reverse the will of the British people,
7) They have strayed so far from their Charter obligations that they are no longer fit for purpose.
And Boris/Ms Dorries…Bri tainwill be watching the progress of Peter Bone,s bill to abolish the Licence Fee and replace it with a subscription model.
The points above say that that time has now arrived.
Well said, St. Rubble!
The straying from their charter is the key issue as far as I’m concerned.
We’ve all had enough of their autocued opinions, they’re not supposed to show these. If they want to, then they should go to a commercial station where the public will agree or disagree, and management will decide whether they’re worth their wages!

The traitor political puppets have imported dark, malevolent legions from every corner of the earth and set them loose upon native Britons in an orgy of violence, theft, fraud, rape, murder corruption, and every other wickedness known to mankind.
These puppets have deliberately facilitated the systematic colonisation, dispossession and genocide of our people, the native British. At the same time our people have been brainwashed and threatened into accepting mass abortion, sterilisation, paedophilia, family breakdown, degeneracy, dehumanisation, false guilt, social and cultural disintegration, industrial sabotage, perpetual usury and mental and physical slavery. Their agenda is the subjugation and extinction of the white race. But the, most wicked crime of all is to be aware of it. To know what is behind it all. To expose them publicly and to list their crimes against humanity and to name them and their satanic creed. To draw the line and stand to it. To protect our children and our futures. To be aware of the goodness of nature, and treat which, despises it. To be proud of what we are and proclaim it.
That about sums up what is mostly known about the evil dewllers in our midst whose crimes must somehow be atoned for. Has the pit become just too slimy to clean?
Great post
Wow..!!!!
China has infiltrated the House of Commons, donating upto £500k to Barry Gardner Labour MP and others. The Chinese woman who infiltrated parliament has a son who worked for Barry Gardner, the son has now quit Barry Gardner’s office and been told to leave the Commons.
M15 has been involved for some time.
The first 15 minutes on Sky was lead by this story, what was the lead story on the BBC, bloody Partygate again.
Sky political correspondent saying this Chinese infiltration could be a massive story in the coming days.
Just sums up the crap being dealt up by the BBC, and sums up what the BBC agenda is… Unbelievable
And? People on these pages constantly say that they would much rather have foreign government making up the pittance we pay our MPs so they can save a ha’penny a decade. In fact they sometimes go so far as to say that MPs shouldn’t receive a salary at all and should be the pawns of foreign governments completely.
So smile you are getting what you pay for – which isn’t much to be honest.
Thoughtful….
I have no idea what your talking about
The point I’m trying to make is that with such a serious and developing story the BBC still see’s fit to lead with Partygate.
I couldn’t give a monkey’s cuss who gets paid what, all I’m concerned about is the appalling conduct of the BBC
I thought that was the whole point of this forum
We have been dicsussing the issue of bribery on the forum for many months dafydd, maybe you haven’t seen those disucussions.
It links to the BBC in many ways with a revolving door between the Labour party and the corporation.
We have seen the CCP bribe many media outlets including the New York Times which was at one time publishing outright propaganda for them.
It’s about recognising this propaganda, why it happens and how, and how far its influence reaches. One prominent erstwhile Democrat supporting lawyer whose lecture I watched reckons half of DC is on the Saudi payroll. If it’s spread that far in the USA imagine how far it’s spread in the UK.
Corruption here is now rife and it isn’t just the politicians who are involved.
Talking of corruption, did not the premier and vice-premier of New South Wales have to resign because of financial links with Pfizer? Are we supposed to think that the multi-billion corporation, mainly owned by billionaires and making many billions from the pandemic, were only interested in a single state in a single country? Maybe the BBC can investigate /sarc
Working for the Country should be payment itself – but it is not enough.

Thoughtful ,
If we paid MPs the money you think they should be paid , would you guarantee that none of them would ever be corrupt, and all of them would be wiser than the present lot in our Parliament?
Blundering Diane Abbott mocked AGAIN for Grenfell tweet saying ‘fire puts out water’
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/5151126/diane-abbott-mocked-grenfell-tower-fire-puts-out-water-tweet/
Nibor – I’m sure, as you will be, that nobody could guarantee that.
However, it goes far wider than corrupt or corruptible politicians – should we be paying, for instance, incredible salaries to the CEOs and the CFOs of major public sector organisations – such as Health Authorities for instance,- who repeatedly set annual budgets for their organisations, even in non-pandemic years, and within just a few months, they are wailing to the public that they can’t manage within their budgets and they’re goiing to need even more money….. for heaven’s sake – they fail year after year to fulfil the fundamental needs of their key task – making it work.
And how many of these very highly paid individuals, throughout the past few years, have sat on their duffs at every single opportunity, and waited to be told exactly what to do by the civil service or members of the government – so they can never be blamed for anything that happens ? These people (and it’s endemic throughout the public sector) are not real professionals – they are ‘jobswoths’ and should not be treated with any respect if they can’t do their job !
I agree with you Richard .
Thoughtful posits that if we paid our MPs more we would get better MPs , non corruptible and more sagacious than the present lot .
I disagree . There is no evidence that will happen .
Our well renumerated senior civil servants ( grade 5 and above) are the most mendacious self serving , indolent , narrow minded half wits who ever are part of a nations governance.
Rather than pay them more I would hang the lot of them .
Laws which are currently pretty flexible and laid down in the 1700s would have to be changed to make corruption much more difficult.
If you hanged them all who would run the country, make the decisions?
The people should run the country via their representatives in Parliament.
A new civil service that believes in patriotism should assist the MPs .
Thoughtful
PITTANCE – YOU THINK £84 k is a PITTANCE ? Can you me some money please ? A pittance will do ….
How you can campaign for MPs to get more taxpayers ‘ cash is obscene . Cut their numbers – cut their pay – ban their families from benefitting – stop the second home payments – and if they don’t like it – go find a better job .
Barry Gardner on corrupt E500k payments and you think that’s ok ? Go campaign on another site – or concentrate on the damn BBC
Sky and the Spectator were right on it. But bbc took quite a while longer to report it.
China and Imperial
Imperial is the UK’s number one university collaborator with Chinese research institutions
More than 600 research papers published with Chinese institutions every year
2,600 Chinese students at Imperial – our largest international group
225 Chinese staff carrying out world leading research
More than 7,000 alumni living in China – the largest group outside the UK
https://www.imperial.ac.uk/about/introducing-imperial/global-imperial/east-asia/china/
And yet that is still eclipsed by the funding received from Saudi Arabia who are our universities number two source of funding after the UK government.
Of course that funding comes with strings to promote Islam and allow Muslim students to do what ever they please.
A DEGREE OF INFLUENCE
The funding of strategically important subjects in UK universities
Click to access Foreign_funding.pdf
What is noticeable from the research undertaken in this report is the disparity
in the levels of funding from the countries studied. There are huge amounts
of cash currently being donated by Arab and Islamic sources, and this has undoubtedly led to a degree of influence in the oversight of UK universities. China,
however, while donating only a relatively small amount of cash, has managed
to gain a disproportionate amount of influence in UK higher education via its
Confucius Institutes. What is also clear is that, in terms of money donated, the
likes of Japan and Russia do not appear to have the desire to influence higher
education in the same way as China or certain countries in the Muslim world.
Booster Bust: Medical Establishment Changes Its Mind
By Vasko Kohlmayer
There is a tectonic shift underway in the medico-scientific establishment: they are starting to walk back boosters.
The first indication of this dramatic change of attitude came from the United Kingdom last week.
https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2022/01/booster_bust_medical_establishment_changes_its_mind.html
————————————————-
I have a feeling that the results of vaccinations is not good. Probably showing that vaccines are killing more people then ones not vaccinated.
So this excuse to slide out from the back door.
The trouble here is that its difficult even for me, to accept that I have probably been bamboozled, and rushed into accepting a clearly untested vaccine.
Please read the linked article. Boosters and vaccines are causing people to fall in and die, as their natural immune system is failing.
This is what I’m seeing in the Office of National Statistics reports.
Vaccines are causing more deaths then covid 19.
Typical BBC coverage of the Chinese spy story…
You have to wade through 9 paragraphs of story followed by 11 paragraphs of “analysis” before you come across the words “Barry Gardner” or “Labour”
Why, BBC?

Chinese agent infiltrating Parliament, MI5 warns
One journalistic ploy which could be implemented by the BBC is to ask every senior Labour/LibDem/SNP politician pontificating on the BBC whether, if it is proved that some sort of event was held/attended by them or any members of their staff (no matter how briefly), during the same period they are criticising the Conservatives for, would they immediately resign their positions as they are asking of the Prime Minister et al ? Yes or no, being the only two possible answers !
…… and then harangue them with the same question, or variants, for the duration of the interview, as they have been doing with any goverment minister recently, and if they still don’t get a clear answer, crack one of their usual asides at the end of their interviews, such as “…. well, Mr Starmer/Ms Rayner/Ms Reeves/Ms Cooper/Mr Milliband/Mr Davey/Mr Blackford clearly doesn’t want to answer that question, but demand that it is posed to their opponents, so let’s now hand over to Laura Keunssberg, the BBC’s Political Editor, for her analysis of the possibility of some substantial hypocrisy on behalf of opposition members ….”
The BBC has had days now to formulate such an obvious approach, but I haven’t heard of it being asked….. perhaps others have ? I suspect, given it’s the BBC we’re talking about, probably not !
Why now? 2 years later? Who else knew?

£180,000 fund for pro-Beijing shadow minister

Barry Gardiner with Christine Lee in 2014. Her law firm has funded staff costs for the shadow international trade secretary since 2015 and her son works in his parliamentary office
2014…
…
Mr Gardiner has generally taken a pro-Beijing stance in his shadow portfolios. In his previous role as shadow energy secretary, he supported Chinese involvement in Britain’s nuclear power industry.
Reading in the TELEGRAPH it was nearer £500K pocketed by Labour MP Barry G. Not sure what he could promise the Chinese. One proposition could be to have our military equipment made in China with a big GREEN sticker on it. But no politician is stupid enough to fall for it. !!! BBC would prefer we adopt Chinese pronouns combined with Islamic sensibility. Donations accepted.
New lobby row as former Chancellor Philip Hammond lands job with Saudi finance minister – raising fears he could offer ‘access and influence’ to a foreign government
Philip Hammond took the job despite concerns of a parliamentary watchdog
Mr Hammond, 65, lost the Tory whip after rebelling against PM’s Brexit plans
Now Lord Hammond of Runnymede, he set up the consultancy Matrix Partners and has taken up more than a dozen commissions over the past year
Good to see John Boyega in there as Pantone 000
Since Ian Fleming wrote the Bond books characterising the main player in them as a laconic, un-woke Scot, and despite being initially taken aback at the introduction of Sean Connery to the role, eventually changed his view and basically endorsed the choice.
Now…. in this day and age of the condemnaton of cultural ‘misappropriation’, why would anyone consider anything but a very pale-skinned individual as being the new Bond ?
Time to throw the continuation of J Bond films out-with Daniel Graig the story lines have been lost in complete and utter savage behaviour, the support of such violence will no doubt be believed by those with little sense to realise that they cannot replicate the film story.
When are the extreme body piercing and tattoo crew going to play their discrimination card?
People with full facial tattoos, embedded pieces of LEGO and recycled piston rings in their nostrils shouldn’t be discriminated against ?
The Guardian will no doubt lead the charge assisted by the BBC.
Ex NBC news chief Deborah Turness will be “outstanding” at delivering impartial coverage when she takes over her new BBC £400,000-a-year job, peers were told yesterday…
Well that would be a novel idea ‘impartial coverage’ – but the BBC would have chosen her for her innate ‘bias’ based on past loyalty to (US) NBC news network which Ricky Gervais jokes as being full of “Woke Cretins’ at the global awards ceremony (or words very similar) last week. That is why she will earn more tan TWICE her previous worth at NBC. BBC rewards those that play politics and show loyalty to the cause of global socialism.
In The Telegraph it was reported that the UK Chief of Staff of our National Defence earns £250,000 tops. The perverse ‘media’ business of the BBC (which is ‘crap’ to work for) has to offer (usually a lot more) and usually ‘TWICE’ as much as other ‘broadcasters’ for its actors and agitators to keep them ‘focussed’ – on the real job of promoting left wing politics. The new BBC ‘Head-of-News’ – will be predictable and uninspiring..
https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1548871/bbc-chief-news-chief-bias-deborah-turness
Another memorable example, was following the Saville scandal was MARK THOMPSON the ‘ex BBC’ flunky and DG that ran away to the US to avoid UK prosecution and was awarded by a BBC ‘exclusive’ of million pound BONUS in expenses on his new job of running the New York Times, another ‘left’ enclave that makes the BBC seem quaint rich ‘auntie’ with deep pockets. Reported by parliamentary sub committee Patricia Hodge who was ‘shocked’ (at BBC expenses overall) at the time. The BBC under Lord Hall tried to justify the expense at the same time as avoiding that Jimmy Saville worked for the BBC as an employee – with expenses.
Mark THOMPSON now millions richer, has a new book to get plugged by the BBC:
https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/709446/BBC-former-Director-General-Mark-Thompson-Andrew-Marr-Show-plug-new-book
And in the Daily Express (January 12th 2022) – Another ‘ex BBC’ employee has described himself as a ‘business Tycoon’. As they do, all (BBC) entrepreneur feeding on the taxpayers teats of the generous TV license. Has a story to tell (not reported on the BBC) but employed by the BBC.
(extract)
‘A former BBC executive’ is being sued by one of London’s top ‘exclusive’ hotels after leaving them with £740,000 hotel bill.
Jason Blain – BBC Worldwide booked his £4,275 per night penthouse overlooking Hyde Park in London for six months and left without paying a tip, the bill being overall £1.25 million pounds. (you read that right). This case is being heard in the High Court rather than the BBC itself. Staff ‘expenses’ are always hidden. That is why he is an ‘ex’ BBC in this news report.
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/17282581/bbc-executive-unpaid-luxury-hotel-bill/
Its not the first time BBC ‘expenses’ are really very generous. Plus the fact they earn TWICE as much as the rest of the media ‘biz’ is why the BBC is a ‘favourite’ if your skint, and a former ‘anarchist’ or ‘political rights’ agitator. So Deborah Turness is a perfect to replace the fragarent ‘Jan Fransworth’ who is stepping down to get a plumb job elsewhere in the media circus. Well rewarded with the BBC road to fortune. Gold plated beyond the means of mortals.
The reason why the BBC pension scheme is in ‘deficit’ and uses more of the TV license each year to pay for it. They will never have enough money to pay themselves.
https://www.ftadviser.com/pensions/2017/08/23/bbc-to-pay-340m-to-fund-pension-scheme/
And every time we criticise the BBC, they take it as ‘proof ‘that they have the ‘moral’ edge and are ‘trusted’ by 88% of the population (which can never be proved any more than the claim than ‘Black Lives matter’ or ‘Isaac Newton’ was somehow ‘gay’ as he somehow liked ‘rainbows’). The fact that many of us ‘avoid’ the BBC and its absurd claims of ‘impartiality at its core’, – is as far from the truth as you can get in reality. It rarely happens.
https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/1548667/BBC-news-bbc-bias-latest-boris-johnson-resign-tory-party
Finally, I have come to respect Rick Gervais for speaking what many ‘luvvies’ fail to do when awarded ‘Golden Globes’ and turn into it to party political speech on Black Lives matter and saving little children in Africa or how they saved the planet by buying a TESLA car or other nonsense the left come up with as ‘screw the rest of you’.
Rick Gervais: “…. So if you win an award tonight, don’t use your platform to make a political speech”. “ Your in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world”
And he mentioned the kind of (US) biased broadcaster called ‘NBC’ which is a US identikit clone of the BBC ‘public service’ collective in US. And that is why the BBC have chosen an arch manipulator of the news (now) Deborah Turness to front the BBC news operation for – £400,000 a year + expenses (you can ‘guess’ and then double it again).
Only 37% think the BBC was ‘impartial’ in 2018. Nothing has changed before or since.

Has the Gingerphobic BBC ever made any special priorities for Ginger Jobs ?
ITV “A human rights charity in Yorkshire is calling for red-haired children who are targeted with abuse to be given more protection, following the sacking of a Sheffield teaching assistant who poked fun at a ginger child.
Equality and Human Rights UK, which are based in the city, says red-haired children are being “targeted mercilessly” because of their appearance and it’s too often dismissed as “banter”.
It comes after a former teaching assistant in the city lost an unfair dismissal claim following his sacking for behaviour including upsetting a red-haired child.
The man – referred to in official documents as Mr J Brelsford – is said to have included a discussion on ‘Gingerphobia’ in a lesson at St Wilfred’s Primary School after one child in the class had been teased by his classmates for the colour of his hair.

If you read the current situation in this country you’d think it was from the Fiction section of the Library !
Our tale starts with a country somewhere in the Northern Hemisphere, with a monarchy where the once second in line to the throne is fighting a sexual abuse case and has lost all his Moldovian style military medals. His nephew has left the safety of his family and with his wife have become cartoon characters in the land of Disney. In the meantime the Prime Minister of this land is embroiled in a series of scandals ranging from the breaking of lobbying rules, to whether a glass of wine drunk outside was legal or not. Another element thrown into the mix is the Chinese infiltration of the beleaguered government, – a woman spy no less ! paying for paper clips and photocopying paper in the office of a Left wing MP and where her son was employed to man the diary !!! God almighty the Chinese have already dosed up the world with Covid yet clearly a contract with Staples is what they really want.
You really couldn’t make this up.
And a man who entered the country into a war of dubious legality with no exit plan is awarded just about the highest honour of the land. Hey ho…

News tonight, Prince Andrew to lose his HRH title and others, why is this, what happened to ‘innocent until proven guilty’ ?
Wild Bill, maybe he has told everything to his mother? There’s nothing quite like being able to talk to Mum.
Or Dad.
Tony Blair to be given an extra one in case he loses the first one.
dodgy sex with a 17 year old (legal in britain) bad
or causing the deaths of a million people under false pretenses and setting fire to the middle east with all its knock on effects good
wtf is going on
Time to be rid of the honours system. It’s a bad joke and confusing for the young in terms of good examples. Only selfless or courageous people should get them. Or inventing something amazing.
Andrew stripped of military titles and royal patronages.
Plenty more ….

On 13 January 2022, it was announced that while Andrew retains the style of His Royal Highness as a British prince, he will no longer use it in a public capacity.[33]

So the Queen did not wait for a guilty verdict. It looks as if she is controlled by the BBC – just like her government
He served his country surely he should keep the titles he earned through service?
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jan/13/veterans-ask-queen-to-strip-prince-andrew-of-honorary-military-titles
An open letter from former members of each of the services said that it was “untenable” for the Duke of York to retain his position.
BLOODY HELL !!!! so that’s what all the Moldovian metal work is for then !
I’ve never really understood how in all conscience anyone could swan about with faux titles that they haven’t earned. Like those celebrities who have Honorary Doctorates from Universities. What’s the point ? apart from getting togged up from the dressing up box, it means absolutely nothing. He has the Sash of the Order of the Aztec Eagle from Mexico, and that means……. what ?
ITV local news
“There are Left Behind neighbourhoods where you’re ‘46% more likely to die of Covid
blah blah ..says new report”
They didn’t really say that this is report comes from a committee of MPs who talk about Left Behind towns
I did get a idea when they starting banging on “Hull Labour MP Diana Johnson says”
Web story is clearer
A group of MPs say parts of our region are ‘left behind’ neighbourhoods and suffering the effect of serious health inequalities.
The research has found people in these areas are 46% more likely to die from Covid-19 and live 7.5 fewer years in good health than those in other parts of the country

BBC Operation Bump Boris :
Did your region have a title like ours
“A senior X-shire Tory says must step down” ?
I thought, “who is this guy ?”
“Philip Sagar in Grantham” said the screen label
as he was on for just 40 seconds
and they never said what his job is
Then today they did a vox pop from Grimsby
to stir up the BBC anti Boris campaign
3 were Against Boris, 1 for.
Philip Sagar was Chairman of the Conservative Association in Grantham
..He stood down in 2019
And Twitter hasn’t mentioned since then.
Whilst in office he stuck the knife on the the then local Tory MP Nick Boles.
Barry Gardiner MP (LAB) should be charged with treason.
The facts coming out from MI5 makes the press attacks on Boris (…in reality a bunch of Civil Servants at work) fade into insignificance compared to this.
A CCP Chinese sleeper and his mother were working right in the offices of a Labour MP in Westminster to influence Government and its relationship with the CCP in China and to make it worse….that MP was taking payments in return. This tags him as a traitor and spy.
It looks cut and dried but you we know what the BBC will make of this because he is Labour…don’t we?
Tumbleweed….Zilch……
The highest levels of cronyism and favour at play.
“since 2015, suspected Chinese agent Christine Lee has donated £675,588 to either Barry Gardiner’s office or directly to the Labour Party.”
I did think that Maybe Gardiner could have been a good guy
pretending to respect the Chinese, but then feeding info to MI5 all along.
but 17 years is a long time.
“He says that was all to fund researchers and aides in his office and did not benefit him personally.”
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/politics/17311209/major-chinese-spying-row-to-hit-parliament/
Sun’s typo ?
first say “since 2005”
Then say “Donations began in September 2015”
Mr Gardiner said he’d been “liaising with our Security Services for a number of years about Christine Lee and they have always known, and been made fully aware by me, of her engagement with my office and the donations she made to fund researchers in my office in the past”.
=====================
Lib Dem leader Sir Ed Davey received a £5,000 donation from Ms Lee in 2013 when he was Energy Secretary in the coalition.
Does that mean that Barry was working for MI5 spying on the chinks then ? And trousers a pittance of £500k and employing a spy on the parliamentary estate ?….. lol as they say . …
How many other labour MPs are working for MI5 ?
A spokesperson for Hackney MP, Diane Abbott.
‘There is no way my office would let a foreign spy into my employ’
Dimitri Putin added, ‘We vet all our employees rigorously’.
When Ed Davey was Energy Secretary he was receiving money from the Chinese !
So who sanctioned Hinckley Point and who thought “green energy “ with Chinese made solar panels would be best for Chin…. Britain?
ITV advert just now Chris Packham was talking about birdwatching in an advert for the RSPB
… I thought there was a BBC rule that stars are not allowed to be in adverts that are similar to their BBC programme role.

Then poor imporished Carol Vorderman came on flogging over-priced funeral plans.
BBC Complaint Summary:
I take offence that presenters promote their books
Full Complaint:
I see that BBC presenters use their twitter accounts to promote items outside of the BBC
…. Katty Kay (The Confidence Code and Womenomics),
Jon Sopel (If Only They Didn’t Speak English),
Chris Evans (Call the Midlife)
Gary Lineker (goalhangerfilms.com) …
there might be more around.
Does the BBC charge the presenters for using the BBC brand to promote these items?
Does the BBC get a kick back to reduce the TV License with each successful sale of these products?
Can you tell me how this works … do the items on sale conform to the BBC core values and guidelines?
Many Thanks.

GBnews now : Peter Bones vs Jenni Bond
.. JB “No one knew the BBC’s position on Brexit, they never admitted they got Brexit wrong”
PB “The one organisation that has not asked me to talk about my bill is … ?”
Listening to ms bond – she sold her soul a long time ago . I wonder how much taxpayers ‘ cash the deluded fool gets ?
Strange thing… when I mention the shitty events surrounding Gardiner and the Commies to all my acquaintances baying for Boris’s blood they just put their fingers in their ears and chant la-la-la….
Speaks volumes!
Notice how the BBC outrage over Boris is muted its nothing like the hate they had / have for Trump. They know that deep down Boris is a green woke lefty just like them…….
Gardiner is some obscure opposition back bencher no one has heard of and has little relevance in their everyday lives.
He isn’t going to be prosecuted and will be allowed to keep the money.
It isn’t the first time Boris has done this though, it’s a long list of scandals largely of his own making. On top of that he has made some catastrophic decisions and it all builds up into one big ball of crap which means if the Tories weren’t so useless and cowardly they would have dealt with long ago.
And in some stunning other news Marxist pretend Tory Michael Gove, despite the outrage over BLiars knighthood has opened his big stupid Socialist gob to tell everyone what a great deserving guy he is demonstrating he is part of a Westminster bubble and a million miles away from the people of this country.
Then Karma caught up and he got stuck in a lift !
The BBC has been very fond of Gardiner – and he was regularly put up by the Labour Party ( PRC ) branch to spout the party line .
I don’t know when comrade gardiner was last put onto the state broadcasters ‘ airways – he obviously didn’t need the appearance fee due to his funding by the comrades .
I wonder how many more have been bunged ?
CHINA
The Thousand Talents Program (self evidently something that Barry Gardiner mightn’t qualify for…)
However the MSM in general do not pay much heed to the antics of the CCP
Gardiner is hardly some “obscure backbencher” he was a member of Corbyn’s shadow cabinet.
He should certainly be making the news if it’s true that he’s pocketed a cool half a million from the Chinese. This is seriously odd and possibly dangerous.
I never took to him and always thought he was a bit snidey…mind you, I thought that of most of Corbyn’s team.
Could be he’s inadvertently done Boris a real favour…
Tony BLiar pocketed an estimated £200 Million out of Saudi and neighbouring countries and no one seems to want to know.
Goodness only knows how much Bush Obama and Clinton have taken for the defence and promotion of Saudi Arabia and its Wahabist clerics.
British PMs have all had their hands out for payments ever since Belgiums PM had to resign over payments, the king of Spain has had to go into exile because he got caught, yet people seem to think our politics is like the swan, all calm and grace where you can see but paddling like crazy where you can’t.

Should BBC TV play the national anthem at closedown?
The BBC should be “proud of our country” and bring back playing God Save the Queen late at night, in the year of the Queen’s platinum jubilee, Andrew Rosindell has said.
BBC One used to close down with the national anthem, although now it simulcasts the News Channel overnight and has a verbal handover, although BBC Radio 4 carries on with the tradition.
The Tory MP said he was “tired of the wokeness”, while Labour peer Jenny Chapman said she was not against the idea, but said it was “strange” for politicians to tell BBC what to broadcast.

Covid : when they report death tallies on a Saturday,
the bulk of the deaths happened on the Thursday
There was a pattern that it was always about 50 of the tally applied to Thursday, and the rest spread back through Wed, Tue, Mon etc.
but then on January 8th tally came in and then the tally applying to Thursday was 100
and everyday since then it’s been about the same : about 100 new deaths logged as being from 2 days previously and a growing number being spread through the previous 3 or 4 days
But why did high deaths manifest from January 8th ?
I guess most of the dead caught Covid a few weeks earlier.
But I do wonder if hospital routines play a part
ie Is this a scenario ? that during Christmas and New Year hospitals don’t do any risky surgery.
Then in January they start back, and a portion of those surgery patients have Covid
and then some of those patients die in the risky treatment .
Deaths come 2-3 weeks after cases. Or more accurately cases in the over 55s.
I’d expect deaths in the 300-400 area for a week or two but the decline in cases over the last few days is really good news, and so as good news obviously has rated barely a mention on the BBC.
7 day averages are a more reliable indicator to eliminate the weekend effects and delay in ‘date of death’ reporting which is revised on following days.
