Weekend 12 February 2022

President Putin is continuing to build forces on the Ukraine border. Diplomacy is failing . Does the BBC seem concerned with a potential war ? Not really – day after day it continues to hunt the British Prime Minister .Yet the government continues to indulge the BBC. Surely time up ?

    6:20pm BBC local news, good on them they opened
    “There was a march in Hull today against grooming gangs”
    Then there was a clip of a spokesman
    .. balanced by next reading out of the police statement
    All over in 90 seconds, but the weekend news prog is quite short.

    Item #2 “possible closure of Liberty Steel plants ”
    clip of a female spokesman claiming that Liberty steel is green steel in our strive for net-zero”
    Yes, sure they don’t do the big job of mixing coal and ore, but they do still use tens of millions of pounds worth of electricity in their electric arc furnaces
    and that power will not be mostly solar/wind

    Censored by the BBC.

    I am told that the probable reason that the Mayor of London sacked Cressida Dick was because she appointed Met Superintendent Jon Simpson with three other officers to investigate Metropolitan Police Crime Number: 6029679/21. He is working conjointly with the International Criminal Court (The Hague) Case number: OTP‐CR‐473/21 in what’s being called the world’s largest international crime investigation ever. https://worldfreedomalliance.org/au/news/uk-police-launch-major-investigation-into-mrna-covid%e2%80%9019-vaccine%e2%80%90related-corporate-crimes-and-threats-to-public-health/

    It includes statements from doctors, vax damaged victims and NHS staff citing coercion and Blackmail. Also, significant evidence of the Manslaughter/Murder of victims involved in the Hydroxychloroquine trials, where excessive doses were given to discredit the drug in order to bring in the emergency powers. Statements include reports of blindness, heart issues, blood clots, strokes, myocarditis etc. The suppression of Ivermectin is in itself mass murder: https://bird-group.org/bird-group-get-ivermectin-approved/

    The case is what makes Partygate serious and is probably the reason for the sacking of Cressida Dick.

    Its not clear who the good guys and bad guys are, but other strange incidents include angry people surrounding Kier Starmer over Jimmy Savile, were in fact people that included Pier Corbyn who went to Charing Cross police station to serve the information of crimes in four vaccination centres.

    The parties at No 10, organised by Civil Servants, included Behavioural Scientists and Mainstream Media Journalists, celebrating the successful use of clinical applied psychology and propaganda techniques on the public. This is why the Mainstream Media and Big Tech are censoring the real nature of the police investigation. The parties are outside the six month window for criminal investigation. So the parties are not the issue.

    The manufacturers of the vaccine are immune from prosecution and a fraud lawsuit could be dismissed if the government continued to pay the contractor.

    The evil “rich socialist” corruption is so deep and extensive that Professor Norman Fenton, Professor Brendan Wren and the head of the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR), Ed Humpherson could be fearing for their lives. Bobby Kennedy Jr and Robert Malone have already received death threats.

    The BBC is censoring protests by NHS workers and in Canada the truckers are causing the supply chain to collapse.

    In fact it is a proven fact that the CIA funded the gain-of-function SARS-CoV-2 research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, and that Bobby Kennedy Jnr has proven that western intelligence agencies are behind the Biosecurity agenda, censorship and propaganda.

    So the data corruption originates from the creation of the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA), created during the pandemic, presumably because the OSR and ONS were not under the control of the Biosecurity people at the No 10 party.

    Covid, or SARS-CoV-2, or SARS-CoV-WIV (Wuhan Institute of Virology) is a synthetic spike protein chimera engineered to attach to human ACE2 receptors and inserted into a recombinant bat SARSr-CoV backbone. Evidence suggests that spike proteins can circulate in the blood, causing inflammation and micro clotting. There is growing evidence that the spike proteins in the vaccine are themselves causing harm and death. Each booster of the Vaccine accelerates the gain-of-function spike protein in what the coronavirus uses to enter Human cells. Each booster brings the victim closer to death.

    Vaccine deaths were mostly hidden within the 14 day scam. They are attributed to deaths by the unvaccinated. In an unprecedented letter of condemnation, the head of the Office for Statistics Regulation (OSR), Ed Humpherson, criticised the UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) for providing statements “Unsupported by the data” and demanded much greater transparency on health data. Problems with the Office for National Statistics (ONS) data originate from the UKHSA. In fact the Covid rules imposed by the UKHSA are identical to those imposed by the US Centers for Disease Control. This links the British rules with Dr Fauci. Both the USA rules and the UK rules classify people as unvaccinated up to 16 days after they have been vaccinated. All the data manipulation seems to originate from Dr Fauci, and then everyone else follows the consensus.

    The result is that now on average, fully vaccinated Brits currently have a 65% lower immune response than the unvaccinated have to Covid-19. https://dailyexpose.uk/2022/02/08/uk-gov-data-suggests-fully-vaccinated-have-developed-vaids/

    7:30pm Channel5 Tony Robinson’s History of Britain
    series 2 ep1 Romans
    The actor returns to explore the history of the nation through the everyday lives of ordinary people,
    Tony tells the story of an African Roman soldier who was posted to Hadrian’s Wall.

    In all probability the “African” is probably an ethnic European born in North Africa or maybe a Berber
    I doubt they were actual black people.

      Ahh! Stew but Septimus is more famous for giving us SEPTEMBER. More famous than Emperor Octavis – who gave us OCTOBER. And then the Romans only had ten months in the years before that. If Labour ever get in again, the another month will be added to the Calendar I am sure. ‘Starmarius the expectant’.

    Oh, and Novembius for November, and Decimus for December?

    The old (pre-Julian) Roman calendar went:

    March (named after Mars, god of War), April, May, June (all named after gods and their annual celebrations), Quintilis (the fifth month), Sextilis (the sixth month), September (the seventh month), October (eighth), November (ninth), December (tenth), January (Janus, two-faced god), February (Februs, god of fever).

    February was an intercalary period (not a proper, lunar month), which is why it’s short (to round up to the required 365 days) and why we mark leap years with an extra intercalary day tagged on to the end of it (to provide the roughly 0.25 of a day required to correct the year).

    The ‘ides of March’, celebrated in mid March, were the Roman ‘New Year’ celebrations and the normal deadline to settle up debts and taxes for the proceeding year.

    The Julian Calendar was one of Julius Caesar’s more notorious self-aggrandising schemes. Famously, he argued for moving the new year to 1st Jan, but only the names of the 7th and 8th months (5th and 6th in the old Roman calendar) were changed (named after Julius and his adopted son Augustus, respectively), the rest retained their old names, which is why it’s out of synch, and we still call the 12th month, the 10th!

    The plan was, apparently, to change the name of each of the succeeding months to remember succeeding Emperors, but it never seems to have caught on.

    Interestingly, Caesar’s murderers chose the Ides of March as the time to strike him down, coincidence? Probably not.

    We seem to be witnessing just how lovely and cuddly the left-wing governments are with their crackdowns on ordinary folk disagreeing with their shit arse rules.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-60359061

    It is getting to the point when we need a massive revolution to unseat these freaks from the positions of power they have gained by stealth with the aid of stupid equality legislation and the unthinking masses.

    Come on folks wake-up and see the commie bastards for what they are. They are truly evil and will take apart normal society given half a chance.

    I just can’t quite understand why the various police forces submit to their orders so readily, can they not also see the twisted logic of their superiors. How many of the rank and file think that what they are doing is right?

    Conversely I hope they continue with their draconian and inhumane treatment of dissidents because it will eventually lead to their downfall as the average man looks on and thinks what the fuck is going on we don’t need to take any more of this shit!

    Much reporting today on child mental health, particularly in Hackney. Cue lots of black teenagers with twisted hair all having their say. Hmmmmmm this mental health malarkey appears to becoming a behemoth, and much business being gained with mental clinics and therapists being employed.

    These pubescents were using words like “paranoid” “anxiety” “not being in my body”, “panic attacks”. All good excuses for feeling a bit miserable and not wanting to do anything. In my day we would feign a stomach ache for skipping school, now these kids swallow the dictionary – funny how they are articulate when they want to be !

    I fear a generation of useless bodies are being raised who don’t stand to be criticised, answer their parents back with no repercussions, have little or no common sense, rarely use ‘please or thank you’, want fame without work, and certainly have no ‘backbone’. Sadly it can’t all be blamed on them, as the parents are no better and are afraid to instil discipline and life skills. The country will get the government they deserve in another 40 years time.

      If you ever watch those C4/5 programmes about fare dodgers, Hackney is always featured, including a guy with a samurai sword on a double decker not swiping his oyster card.

    Guess what Stephen Nolan on Radio 5 Live are pushing? Boris Johnson being served with a questionnaire by the Police. It was stated by a someone that he must have been asked to complete this because he has committed a criminal offence. That isn’t the case of course because the questionnaire is merely a fact finding exercise. I thought these matters would be sub judice.

      I was hoping for news on whether Boris has completed his questionaire yet. Or at least a progress report if he’s just answered a few questions.

      The BBC have absolutely no morales about what pictures they put up. They find one on Getty which leans the viewer in the direction of the agenda and use that. Even if it’s from a completely different country.

      School classes are their favourite. They pick ones full of black girls for good news and white boys for bad news.

          lol, I wonder what they are training to do in that ridiculous picture. Mortar target practise ?.

          I’ve noticed how the BBC are telling us absolutely nothing about why Putin wants Ukraine. It’s 100% propaganda like the above picture. Putin often does the bad thing but usually has a rational reason for doing it. Take ISIS : he basically wiped them out. But also anyone else who was nearby.

          Reading up on it, it’s because the West wants Ukraine to join NATO. And looking at the map, it’s not so different from the Cuban missile crisis : the enemy right on your doorstep.

          The real worry about this is the senile duffer in the Whitehouse who puts personal politics above any number of lives. I just saw his approval rating has dropped to the same as Trumps was (an event conspicuous by it’s absence on the BBC – as it was when it dropped below 50%) and desperate leaders without morales often like a good war to bump them up. The Afghanistan bloodbath he created personally (with help from the BBC) might have just been a warmup.

    Watching some of those on paper reviews, it struck me how many of the journalists sporting ethnic names are non-royalists – particularly those to the Left. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but I wondered how many of those whose emigree ancestors came to the UK at the turn of, and in the middle of the last century, were able to flee repression because we weren’t a republic with either a dictator or president as head of state !

    Like the cropping out of the black BLM guy with the plank, this is absolutely outrageous. It’s blatant, racist lies.

    It proves OFCOM are on the same bus as the BBC. It’s corrupt from top to bottom.

    Say what you like about Cummins : if he was still on the team, the BBC would be finished. But Boris chose NutNut and the establishment. Our only chance might have been missed.

    It’s the rise of the armchair general .

    Re Putin
    Do you compare him to hitler with an expansion programme ?
    Or is it something different ?
    Certainly Russia sees NATO as a threat
    Surely NATO is a threat to dodgy regimes – not people
    Russia is a proud nation ( 100m ?) so going for the ‘patriotism ‘ angle might work for Putin ….

    How can he pull back even if he wants too – without appearing weak / losing face . ?

    I fear – unless he has another unrevealed plan – he must do something with his military – also – he has a strong ‘revenge ‘ gene – bred into the KGB – so will want so for us ….

    ..now back to questions about parties …. You can imagine coonsberg calling on Churchill from 1939 – 1945 ‘are you going to resign ?’ As if that hag as any relevance …

    The BBC used to do a programme called ‘Sunday’ which was a Christian based programme for the Sabbath.

    But now the Islamic Broadcasting Corporation should just go the whole way and rename it Muslims Today.

    This morning we had features about Muslims in France, Muslim matchmaking, and how the cuddly Taliban are doing in Afghanistan.

    I was somewhat disengaged by the above avalanche of positive propaganda and thus half asleep but was there a single feature about Christianity?

    Perhaps I should be thankful that it is still broadcast in English.

      Exactly so. The liberal internationalists who have run the country for the past three decades , being generous as to their intentions, thought that once the millions of various third worlders arrived here they would be so enamoured of their liberal culture and beliefs that they would instantly abandon their mediaeval superstitions and become good liberals.
      Being liberals they thought that anyone who doubted this might not be the case was a knuckle dragger and must be suppressed. Now after thirty years even the most dumb liberal knows that those doubts were well founded but having preached this for so long they can’t retract and so we will all perish for their stupidity.

    I know a lot of folk who have now had covid, especially recently with Omicron and after getting jabs. Everyone is OK and the general view is ‘what is all the fuss about, my colds are usually worse than this’. Everyone just wants to get on with living and, OK, occasionally putting on a mask in a tightly confined crowded space if need be..
    Which means Boris’s instincts since before Christmas, perhaps swayed by the so-called right wing of his party, to open things up is absolutely in tune with the majority. The modellers never factored in normal human behaviour. We naturally take more care when things are more dangerous.
    As compared with Captain Hindsight, the doom-monger industry, public sector unions, and their fellow travellers.

    Boris should be able to make huge political capital of this. The only main party prepared, even if a declining trend, to support the individual rather than the collective.

    Rather a shame he is unwilling or unable to do so.

    “What has Brexit come to mean?
    This lecture will explain how the Brexit deal the UK and the EU ended up with came to be. It will then investigate the new relationship between the United Kingdom and the European Union, put in place by the Trade and Cooperation Agreement of December 2020.
    Finally, the lecture will look to the future, to elucidate what Brexit will go on to mean for politics and public policy within the United Kingdom.

      The Great Leap Forward (Chinese: 大跃进; pinyin: Dà Yuèjìn) of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) was an economic and social campaign by the Communist Party of China (CPC) from 1958 to 1962. The campaign was led by Chairman Mao Zedong and aimed to rapidly transform the country from an agrarian economy into a socialist society through rapid industrialization and collectivization.

      These policies led to social and economic disaster, but these failures were hidden by widespread exaggeration and deceitful reports.

      In short order, large resources were diverted to use on expensive new industrial operations, which, in turn, failed to produce much, and deprived the agricultural sector of urgently needed resources. An important result was a drastic decline in food output, which caused millions and millions of deaths in the Great Chinese Famine.

    I know, it sucks, Alfie. Here’s a tip. Hurry up and complete your Brighton set

    ‘A Brighton and Hove Albion Premier League football player arrested on suspicion of sexual assault at a seafront night club has been released under investigation… while enquiries continue. No further information is available at this time.‘ (Sussex World 4th January)

    The supposedly serious Sunday titles are eager to warn us that Putin is going to invade the Ukraine – again.

    Russia plots “false flag” attack to provoke war‘ (Sunday Telegraph)

    The formerly patriotic Sunday Times quotes the Defence Secretary who invokes Neville Chamberlain: ‘“This has the whiff of Munich”

    Whiff‘ is a suspiciously Boris-sounding word – am I right?

    Whiff! Whaff! The beautiful game may be coming home. Ping-pong tables are about to spring up all over London. Boris Johnson made a good joke in Beijing a couple of years ago when taking over custody of the Olympics, reminding the Chinese that table tennis, originally called whiff-whaff, was ours before it was theirs‘ (Independent 2010)

    “I’m game if she is”: Boris Johnson accepts Pippa Middleton’s ‘wiff-waff’ challenge‘ (ITV News 2013)

    I’ll bet he says that to all the girls. Sadly, since Boris handed over London to Little Man Khan, the capital’s youth have leaned more into knife play than ping pong. But I digress.

    The Sunday Express invokes Sunday afternoon war movies: ‘The Great Escape. Desperate Britons flee Ukraine as US spies warn Putin plans to invade on Wednesday‘ – that’s pretty specific. I’ll make a diary note. Let’s see… Ukraine invasion… Christmas Eve, nope that didn’t happen. New Year… nope. During the Olympics… that could still be true. I’ll just pencil it in – just in case.

    Mind you, reminding us of war movies reminds me it was the Germans who tend to invade Ukraine – and come off worse – twice.

    Speaking of flags: ‘Ukrainians wearing and waving the national flag taking part in a unity march‘ – makes the frontpage of the Sunday Telegraph. Funny, isn’t it… truckers flying the maple leaf flag in Canada’s capital are branded white supremacists – heaven forfend an Englishman should protest anything under a union flag – but for whatever reason some little understood eastern european nationalism arises and suddenly we’re cool about that.

    The Sunday Observer didn’t make the BBC online press frontpage line up of the usual suspect titles.

    The Observer Guardian-liason news website goes with headine stories attempting to frame Joe Biden as hero defender of the west against Putin, Sadiq Khan as hero defender of the Met police against toxic culture and Priti Patel and – of course – there’s a coronaphobia story: ‘Next Covid strain could kill many more, warn scientists ahead of England restrictions ending

    The Sunday Mail proposes an alternative route – other than perpetual lockdowns – to immortality: ‘What to eat to live 10 years longer

    Your Sunday frontpage pin ups are – inevitably: ‘Adele as you’ve never seen her‘ (Sunday Mirror);

    Patsy Stevenson, whose picture went viral…‘ – almost as though it was as posed and preplanned as a putative Putin false flag operation against Kiev – ‘… after her arrest at a vigil for Sarah Everard‘ (Sunday Times)

    If the slimmed down miserablist songstress or the radical feminist red head are not to your taste…

    TV Kate: Derek and I have found a new way to be in love‘ (Mail on Sunday)

    We all have our favourites – they do say there’s a lid for every jar – not always the obvious choices: ‘Charles and Camilla to be crowned side by side‘ (Mail on Sunday)

    On the subject of our ongoing royal soap operas there’s a Harry story in the Sunday People: ‘Friends fear criticism of royal stepmum‘ – excuse me as I get used to that new term – royal stepmum.

    On the subject of advertising promotions – which is where we came in – the Mirror, People, Express and Star all go with Boots the chemist.

    £5 off every £20 spent on healthcare products‘ – if only NHS bosses Matt Hancock and Sajid Javid had taken advantage of deals like that when they bust the government bank with favourite crony contracts, abandoned Nightingale pop up hospitals, duff PPE, endless vax booster roll outs, deserted test centres, failed track and trace apps, etc etc.

    The Telegraph knows what we wanted from Boris but sadly gives us empty words and vain hopes: ‘PM will roll back state and trust the people, says new No10 chief

    The Star suggests we fill our basket with: Durex Thin Feel, Vitamin D, Dual Defence Nasal Spray and Nicotinell – which should cover all bases – Happy Valentines. And watch out for the war on Wednesday.

    You have to admire Billy Bunter. Although a confirmed serial liar who cannot be trusted in any way whatsoever, he has at least shown continuing support for the Bliar policy of flooding the UK with foreigners. Pass the baton.

    Here’s what has been eventually revealed in Canada including Soros involvement. The policy referred to is supported by joint signatories – including UK – so partly explains why Bunter has no intention of turning the boats round. He is steadfastly wedded to the policy of, ‘F**k the Brits’ when a choice exists between Soros/UN/Globalists and ‘his’ voters.

      The UK version of ‘Refugee Resettlement’ seems to be explained here.

      This shows that there are (more than) enough legal resettlement routes contrary to what Labour etc. are constantly saying:

      P. 3 “The UK operates three resettlement schemes: The UK Resettlement Scheme (UKRS), Community Sponsorship Scheme, and Mandate Resettlement Scheme. Other safe and legal pathways to the UK which are not covered in this document include, but are not limited to, Family Reunion and schemes to provide support to current and former locally employed staff in Afghanistan”

      ‘Asylum’ of course is a different matter.

      I find it simply astonishing that the Mayor of London is basically demanding the new police chief is not white.

      Here is a list of all the churches in London:
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_churches_in_the_City_of_London

      There are 46.

      Here is a map of all the Mosques in London:
      https://mosques.muslimsinbritain.org/maps-mobile.php?minLat=51.3247120449&maxLat=51.6721675113&minLong=-0.5690467358&maxLong=0.3810346127

      There are 478.

      ‘Full-Fact’ have a ‘fact check’ on how many churches have closed down and whatever – and it’s a masterclass of diversion, pedantry and waffle. Half way through reading it my BS o’meter alarm went off, so I went and found the simple lists.

      Why do all ‘fact-checkers’ NEVER show BAME in a bad light ?. I don’t trust a single one of them.

          Ah – makes sense.

          But I have yet to see a fact-check of something white-based against something BAME-based where the white side ends up in a good light and the BAME side ends up in a bad light.

          For this one, they now include anywhere people ‘meet for religious reasons at least once per month’ as a Church. So a village hall coffee morning will be a Church if it’s an organised event. Very nice to counter claims about the number of Mosques in ‘fact checkers’ and BBC articles should the agenda demand.

    The institutionally toxic ideology that drives BBC editorial is discussed in detail further at ITBB.

    https://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.com/2022/02/the-toxic-bbc.html

    Odd that the dominant reporting cadre on the mid floors of W1A keep seeking to somehow appease the clearly restive ground floor of color and Graun readers elsewhere by using ‘one degree of separation’ gobs that tick the boxes too. All beamed upon by talents such as June of the dazzling smile.

    That might chafe soon at lower pond level..

    And toxicity across all state entities failing to win public support pretty clearly is down in no small measure to shared commitments to diversity above competence all along the greasy pole upwards.

    I think someone may already have commentated on this but anyhow, I recorded it and only just started watching.

    It’s on itv and it’s called trigger point.
    I don’t know if it’s set in Nigeria or Pakistan but there are a couple of whites in it (box ticking I suppose)
    When you notice that the programme is fully pc loaded then you also know who the baddies and goodies are.
    It’s like Hollywood films, the good presidents are all black and the bad ones are all white.

    After about 20 predictable minutes of woke crap I deleted it and the other episodes recorded plus switching off the series record.

    Of course, I know it’s made in England and the 50+% of non whites are there to represent the 3% here.

    Have you noticed, they are less keen to have other whiteys from all over the world as their diverse actors. I think it’s because their virtue signalling might be missed if they use an Austrian or a Swede instead of a Somali and that means their friends might think they are less than 100% woke and therefore a terrible person.

      I’ve noticed that some of the black people in these programs are absolutely apalling actors – but the script specifed ‘black’ so they have to take whoever is available from the 3%.

      It’s absolute and total racism. Until that is accepted and programs reflect the actual population (ie we have racial equality), I will not take a single thing the far-Left hypocrites at the BBC or ITV (which is just as bad these days) say.

      It is becoming obvious that we are not only involved in group thought, but also words that group a lot of conflicting terms or ideas.

      Here is where we are failing in using our language correctly. Let us take the word Muslim as an instance, you can apply this idea to different things as well, so don’t think the word “Muslim” is a special case.

      If you use the word “Muslim” which of these is it?
      A Muslim born in the UK?
      A Muslim born outside the UK, emigrated to the UK?
      A Muslim from Iran who has been raised as a child listening to Ayatollah Khomeini?
      (“…There is no humor in Islam. There is no fun in Islam. There can be no fun and joy in whatever is serious.”)

      A Muslim from Saudi Arabia who has seen beheadings in Deera Square as a child (unsure if there are age restrictions on viewing this sort of thing)?
      (After Friday prayers [Saudi Arabia,Deera Square], police and other officials clear the area to make way for the execution to take place. After the beheading of the condemned, the head is stitched to the body and the body is wrapped up for the final rites and taken away. a wiki ref)
      A Muslim fighting ISIS reading the Dabiq everyday?
      (ISIS Magazine. Dabiq is where Muslim and infidel forces will eventually face each other)
      A Kurdish Muslim female fighter shooting ISIS soldiers?
      A Muslim women being forced to stay hidden at home under a veil in a Western society?
      A Muslim women free to talk in UK Parliament?
      A Muslim imam preaching hate such as Anjem Choudary?
      (Anjem Choudary allowed to spread hate speech 1999-2016). “..we will dominate this country (UK)” )
      A Muslim from Bradford,UK who drives to Glasgow,UK to kill another Muslim (Asad Shah)?
      (Tanveer Ahmed who murdered Asad Shah … shouts in courtroom “Praise for the Prophet Muhammad, there is only one Prophet!”)
      A Muslim who visits Mecca,Saudi Arabia and has to leave his non-Muslim friend outside of Mecca?
      (Sign on road to Mecca “Muslims Only (for Mecca in green)” “For Non Muslims (in red, not sure where you end up – scary)).

      Which of these Muslims are you talking about? Just to be clear.
