As the BBC campaigns to tell us it is ‘for all of us ‘ it just shows that deep down it knows the British public is getting Fedup with it .

    First this time!

    My message to Al Beeb and Boris is get cracking and get fracking, or we are gong to enter a massive recession and inflation crisis !
    Energy costs hit everything .
    Transport , Manufacturing and Food etc etc .
    This was all predictable when Boris went “Green”.
    ‘Frosty’ has got the message already.

      “Wales has become the first UK nation to announce it will offer all five to 11-year-olds Covid vaccinations.”

      “She told Senedd members: “We’re not going to do that as a matter of urgency, as we did over the Christmas period. That’s partly because the risk isn’t as great to that cohort.”

      “That’s partly because the risk isn’t as great to that cohort.”
      Then why bother ?

        PS: I now see the Trucker convoy in a totally different light. Its not about Covid or mandates. It maybe for the Truckers, but for government elites, almost all leftist in the West, its a matter of whether their future plans for the West will survive.

        Its this that is causing Trudeau to react like a dictator- He is backed and encouraged by the rest of all the elite in the West – government, media, Big Tech, and financial institutions – all intent on destroying a working class Truck convoy. They know that if they don’t destroy the Truck convoy, the whole edifice of their plans, Climate Change mandates, control of your life and your money, will collapse.

    And where exactly is this money coming from?…….
    The people who are careful, who do the right thing, look after their pennies and save are yet again penalised.
    The government has not get any money, they get it (or rob it) from the people .
    Scrapping the telly tax would help the poor for a start.

    The Rebel news reporter on the ground didn’t have that viral video
    BUT his Twitter output gives us a good timeline of the past few days.

    Last video “After we found a ground infiltrated us here , we wanted no part of that, we came in PEACE, we leave in PEACE, we have no idea about that group .. we want our freedoms returned, but in a peaceful way”

      Re the rogue group : The police say that a car tried to ram them.
      So they got the guy and went to his base a house in the town
      They put up an exclusion zone, searched the buildings and found the weapons cache of large guns etc.
      Footage from outside the exclusion fence shows some arrests
      but not the actual weapon finding.
      As always they could be nutters, or agent provocateurs.

      Funny thing, Stew: petrol and diesel costs at the pumps have reached new records but with the oil price in the mid $90s. Previously the records just broken were set with the oil price @ $140/$150. Someone is being ‘taken for a ride’ and it sure ain’t by the motorbikers, van & truck drivers and car drivers themselves.

    Neither the ‘legacy media’ nor the social media are giving the truckers a fair hearing.

    So Jordan Peterson has invited one of their leaders to speak on his own YouTube channel. He doesn’t look like a fascist to me.

    Peterson is too big and too respected for YouTube to shut down, much as they would no doubt like to.

    Hey beeb, this is what “speaking truth to power” looks like.

    Remember? You used to do it sometimes, a long, long time ago.

      ‘I’ve seen the worst of Covid – but new drugs can tame it’

      The first patients in the NHS are being offered a new drug to help treat Covid-19. As Covid treatments are changing, fewer patients are becoming seriously ill or dying. So does this mean we are finally taming the virus? At the start of the pandemic there were no drugs for Covid. In April 2020, I stood in a Covid intensive care ward while a doctor, in full PPE, told me they had nothing but oxygen to treat critically ill patients. I watched patient after patient on ventilators being turned on to their fronts to help their lungs take in oxygen.

      Now things have changed enormously. At the Royal Victoria Infirmary in Newcastle, the critical care unit looks and feels very different. Firstly, staff are no longer in full PPE, because most wards are Covid-free. At the peak a year ago the hospital trust was caring for 90 critically ill Covid patients. Today there are just three. It is now the exception, rather than the norm, for patients to go on a ventilator. Hospital stays are much shorter and survival rates have improved significantly.

      Those 2 BBCnews pages
      11:40am Tuesday : Telegram: What’s behind the social media app’s growing popularity?
      (very few tweets as if the no one read the article)

      1am Wednesday : Telegram: Where women’s nudes are shared without consent
      By Global Disinformation Team

      Some impact on Twitter
      eg one guy who works for a Twitter Subsidiary is busy promoting the article which disses Twitter’s competitor.
      No tweets of the article get many likes
      except for one by the Malaysian woman featured in the article
      which gets 100 Likes.

      The thing is whilst Facebook & Youtube don’t allow porn
      Twitter and Instagram do

      Only in November did Twitter implement a policy
      “Twitter bans sharing images of private individuals without their consent”
      I bet there is still stuff there
      Twitter says they deal with complaints about non-consensual nudity ..so it does happen there too

      The BBC report has no UK examples of non-consensual nudity problems
      Their 3 examples are from Cuba, Azerbaijan and Malaysia.

      ================================

      The BBC title ” Telegram: Where women’s nudes are shared without consent”
      Is misleading cos it’s a general internet problem not just a Telegram problem.
      AFAIK only some platforms are on top of it
      #1 cos Facebook and Youtube have a no nudity policy algorithms scan content for nudity as it is uploaded and block it there
      #2 AFAIK major porn platforms used to have lots of non-consensual nudity content, but then under US threat removed all video content unless it was established the models had consented.

      The authorities main concern is child porn,
      And practically it’s a lot easier to police
      ie scan content to see if contains children and if it does chase the poster
      whereas with adults it’s not sure if the content is non-consensual or consensual but by someone who wants to be anonymous.
      I’d expect in a lot of cases when content is left up, that is the police trying to entrap pedos.

        Errr no.

        The left never make mistakes, they are always right and when things don’t work the way they want there is the simple go to reason which always works for them – racism. Everything for them goes wrong because of ‘racism’ and White people.

        Take the Gillette commericial which lost the company £500 million, you would have though any resonably run business would have sacked the idiots who thought that advert was a good idea, but no. They doubled down and made it even worse!

        Same with Nike and their support for BLM before the death of George Floyd.

        These companies would prefer to go out of business rather than change, and that’s a scary thought.

    This left the personal information of 92,845 donors extremely vulnerable, including real names (as listed on credit cards or debit cards), personal emails, locations and other assorted details.

    It was uploaded to a public Google docs account
    “analysis of the stolen data shows that the bulk of donations came from Canadian donors, while the majority of donors come from the U.S., making up more than 56%. Thousands of donations also poured in from Europe and Australia. Canadians managed to outraise Americans by almost $1 million, bringing in $4.3 million to the truckers compared to the Americans’ $3.6 million.”

      Again it’s the motivation of the people behind this, and unfortunately it’s probably established big tech using their professional muscle which is even more frightening.

      If the Russians or Chinese were doing this then there would be an outcry, but when the state does it there is silence.

      Please listen to this Tucker because i fear his time to speak out is limited .

      He raises a key problem – the links between the press and politicians.

      By the very nature of the problem – it will be ignored by that grouping . Its often refered to here as ‘the swamp ‘ or ‘the bubble’ .

      Yet the interchange between the press and politicians is one of the biggest threats we face –

      It would be nice to see a chart of politicians / journos – linked to each other in any way – so we can see how this real ruling class is a threat to the ‘unapproved ‘ .

      As for Tucker talking about Canada – is he the only one who sees how dangerous this is ?

      Using terrorist legislation against protesters ? It is not as though the latest chinese virus is world ending .it cannot be about public health any more – it is about trudeaux being unable to accept dissent

        =====================

        So far Corbyn supporters have put out a video titled “BBC No bias vibes”
        saying the BBC was anti-Corbyn
        Well that was sometimes true, the BBC had spotted that with Corbyn as leader, the Tories would not get booted out
        so it did do that ridiculous Communist Corbyn graphic on Newsnight etc.

        ===================

        “No sponsors interfering”
        Loads of BBC shows are promos for products
        eg the daily book of the week.

    The war on Wednesday is postponed

    It’s something of an anticlimax of a morning this morning. Having assured us of a War on Wednesday and cast a thousand gun-toting Ukrainian babushkas in the role of frontline defenders of western interests, we now learn the War will not be televised – to slighly missquote Gil Scott Heron who warned us back in the 1970s that the Revolution will not be televised.

    The BBC like the rest of the media promised us a show, proposed dates and now still put their trust in Biden: ‘A Russian attack on Ukraine is “still very much a possibility” and the human cost would be “immense”, US President Joe Biden has said‘ (BBC)

    But just as Alan Hansen once knowingly remarked to Gary Lineker on Match of the Day: “Spurs, they’ll always let you down

    So it goes with Prince Andrew: ‘Prince Andrew could face US trial in 2022 over alleged sexual abuse, judge says‘ (Guardian November 2021)

    And this morning: ‘Prince settles Giuffre sex assult case out of court‘ (Guardian) – see, we told you so… “This was always the only outcome for the royal family in terms of damage limitation” (David McClure royal author quoted in the Guardian this morning)

    You see, we may as well make up the news ouselves.

    The left-leaning ‘i’ newspaper has a punt at news creation in their rather appropriately titled column: ‘Waugh on politics. Jack Monroe has done more in a week to lower food prices than any minister

    Can’t you just see it? – the dream team utopian celeb ministry of food – Jack Monroe job share with Marcus Rashford and not a vagabond street urchin, waif or stray would go hungry.

    Meanwhile the ‘i’ dreams of a land in which female wild swimmers could dive into any body of water without the fear of ever meeting extraneous excreta: ‘UK’s wild swimming hotspots hit by sewage

    Nice to know big pharma can still dictate a frontpage story: ‘Side effects of statins are exaggerated, say scientists‘ (Times) – ah, that phrase say scientists, experts say etc… it has to be up there with despite Brexit for the great clichés of the decade award.

    Speaking of which: ‘A lost decade. Long financial Covid threatens political chaos‘ (FT) – oh dear, the globalists had such high hope for a great reset and build back better but what have our politicians actually done to the world economy with their pandemic panic lockdown policies? King Canute just got his socks wet when he tried to turn back the tide. Metaphorically speaking the ‘i’s wild swimmer just found she might encounter a floating mars bar or two.

    In the Guardian we note dubious racially implied insults only work in one direction: ‘Arwa Mahdawi only monsters wear their shoes in the house

    This seems to be a two-pronged cultural attack from both middle east and far east in the Gruan: ‘Here’s why your shoes will be staying the hell out of my house. The Wall Street Journal essay about keeping shoes on left me aghast. As my Auntie Chih-Mei put it: ‘When you walk into my house wearing shoes, you are walking across my heart (Jeff Yang in Los Angeles)’

    And if you listened too closely to the media hype and you were still left wondering how come there was no War on Wednesday the Daily Star has an answer for you: ‘Uri [Geller] Star readers stopped World War 3*

    And to appropriately conclude with the Daily Star’s asterix – don’t you just love it when your tabloids include footnotes to their headlines – our left-leaning serious papers could learn a thing or two about qualifying their headlines ‘*Let’s hope this hasn’t aged badly this morning

        Add to that his obvious mental state and we have a man who is absolutely unfit for the office of President.

        And the BBC will support him because the alternative is Trump back in office. They don;t care how much blood they have on their hands. The ends justify the means.

    Matt Hancock failed in equality duty over Covid appointments
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-60386670

    Shock. Horror. What a Damning headline.

    The article then quickly denegerates into waffle which I usually just close, but the absolute nature of the headline made me persevere.

    ‘A judgement found then-Health Secretary Matt Hancock did not uphold a public sector duty to promote equality when hiring officials in 2020.’

    What is he guilty of ?.

    ‘the defendants in the case had failed to provide evidence of “exactly what was done to comply with the public sector equality duty when decisions were taken on how each appointment was to be made”.’

    So they didn’t have evidence of what they did. Not that they didn’t do it.

    So lets see what else was decided in this case:

    Two other claims – that the government had exhibited “indirect discrimination” and “apparent bias” in making the appointments – were dismissed.

    “The court judgment also states that ‘the evidence provides no support… at all’ for the allegation that Dido Harding secured senior positions on the basis of ‘personal or political connections’ in the government.”

    “The judgement is clear that all claims raised by the Good Law Project were dismissed and the ruling itself stated their claim ‘fails in its entirety’.”

    Then for some completely bizarre reason they quote Angela Rayner again !!.

    And who was behind this High-Court case :

    ‘The Runnymede Trust’ and Halima ‘Bad Smell’ Begum.

    Runnymede has 14 staff and only one is white. John, whose biography is as far-Left as you can get. How ironic for an organisation whose whole purpose is for racial equality.

    Begum made a tweet

    ‘BREAKING: High Court finds PM #BorisJohnson & former Health Secretary Matt Hancock acted unlawfully in appointing #DidoHarding & Mike Coupe.’

    Didn’t mention any of the other stuff. The replies were the usual far-Left activists absolutely full of hate against Boris.

    Is ‘Sweeny Todd’ short for Plod, God, Black Rod or Mrs Amelia Nosepoultice of 13, Acacia Garden, Ruislip?

    If the alleged party was alleged with alleged guests and alleged police turning an alleged blind eye, does all that allegedness count when all the expenses receipts were shredded by accident?

    If the party-goers all pay a £200.00 fine, will it go to a charity or yet another party?

      I suggest the following to help decide if presenters are worth the TV Tax paid under threat of prison …. maybe Carrie Gracie can produce one to justify her pay as well?

      New EU Directive BBC Programme Labels – for a new transparent and accountable and gender fair BBC

      “I, Jeremy Vine, cost the public £750K* per year which is the equivalent to 21.5 nurses on £35K, declare that I have no other incomes derived from my broadcasting at the BBC. I have declared all my expenses and registered all gifts on the BBC expenses website. I, Jeremy Vine on this 30 minutes of show, with production time of 2 hours at an hourly rate of £1153 cost you the public £2884*. This does not include the studio and team wages. All monies I make from my ‘BBC Brand’ go back into the BBC. I follow the BBC guidelines – not giving my opinion on subjects that I know little about on twitter, facebook. If I do give an opinion then they are 100% in agreement with the BBC and have been approved by the BBC at time of publishing. Please note that reading out this EU compliant notice just cost you, the public enforced to pay my wages under threat of prison, a total of £76*.”

      * hourly rate is rough calculation, without knowing Jeremy Vines full wage it will be hard to workout. Figures are for illustrative purposes only. They may go up or down depending gender or TV Tax, but are NOT linked to the talent market.

    Statist BBC at its best I.e. worst.

    Around 0750 JustRemaininDerby enthuses about all the treatments now available for covid. One of them is Paxlovid. It prevents vulnerable people with covid getting the disease badly.

    The interviewee seems to think the drug should be rolled out to everyone with covid. JustRemaininDerby sounds pleased. It will of course be ‘free’ on our wonderful NHS.

    Just a couple of points
    1. Nothing in the NHS is free. What no-one asked was how much will this drug cost? That is to say, cost us? Clearly of no interest to the state funded BBC.
    2. The drug is made by Pfizer. And a good job too. They are allowed to make a profit. Perish the thought it had been invented by GSK or AZ. They would no doubt have to give it away at cost to the world. The fact that an American company will make the money was not mentioned.

    The BBC. World class in myopic reporting.

      Further to my post.
      Reuters estimate the cost at $530 per course I.e. per person.
      The NHS has bought 2.75 million courses.
      So, not exactly free. In fact around $1.5 billion

      But from the BBC? No comment whatsoever.
      Still, hey, what’s a billion between friends of statist organisations.

      Disinformation …

      Newsround
      CBBC Channel, Tuesday 8 June 2021

      In a segment about vaccine approval for 12 to 15 year olds, a contributor claimed that the Pfizer vaccine is “100% safe”. This has been removed from the online article and video: https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/57435861

      The UK’s Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has said:

      “We have carefully reviewed clinical trial data in children aged 12 to 15 years and have concluded that the Pfizer/BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine is safe and effective in this age group and that the benefits of this vaccine outweigh any risk.

      “We have in place a comprehensive safety surveillance strategy for monitoring the safety of all UK-approved COVID-19 vaccines and this surveillance will include the 12- to 15-year age group.

      “No extension to an authorisation would be approved unless the expected standards of safety, quality and effectiveness have been met.

      “It will now be for the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) to advise on whether this age group will be vaccinated as part of the deployment programme.”

    Compare the £12 million payout to Andy’s girl, pictured happily laughing with him, to the treatment tens of thousands of really under age little girls tortured, threatened and gangbanged by evil old men.
    What did they get?
    £0 would be my guess.

    If exactly the same had happened to her but with a normal working man who has no money she would have received nothing.
    Andy is by all accounts an unpleasant man but he’s been taken to the cleaners because he has money.

    On Steyn last night during the Harvey Proctor interview they mentioned the ruling that the victim must be believed by the police and that’s why he was hounded and ruined.
    Does that not apply to the tens of thousands of little girls then or is it because they were all (all tens of thousands of them) slags and scrubbers who were asking for it.

    I wonder how much VG would get if she took one of these noble gangbangers to court if it was them and not Andy.
    She would probably have been arrested for racism or something.

      On Woman’s Hour on R4, Emma Barnett was getting all high and holy about Prince Andrew, Virginia Giuffre and their out-of-court settlement, with Jess Phillips MP and another woman. Little mention of Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, the real criminals. I’m no fan of Prince Andrew but he is simply not a big player in all of this, though he certainly should have been more careful about mixing with scum like Epstein and Maxwell.

      Meanwhile, the empathy with female victims (well, only certain ones as you say, not those from Rotherham) has a hollow ring coming from Barnett. Here’s a quick cut-and-paste from Wiki:

      “During Barnett’s teenage years, her father ran brothels in the Greater Manchester area. The family home was used for publicity shoots of some of the women and for the recording of sex films. Previously convicted of “living off immoral earnings” and subjected to a suspended sentence,[6] in 2008 Barnett’s father was sentenced to immediate imprisonment for keeping brothels and controlling the prostitution of a trafficked woman …”

    I thought I’d check if the BBC are showing any clips of Biden these days. I found this one they just put up.

    And to my absolute astonishment, it is very heavily edited. No responsible news organisation should jump around a speech like that to change what it means. There is no other option but to show it from start to finish. Only activists trying to hide something do such tricks.

    Obviously it’s to only show Joe when he isn’t stumbling or confused. When they did that to Trump, it was to make it sound like he recommended injecting disinfectant. Which he never did.

    The BBC are absolutely shameless in what they do now. It’s an outward sign of their increasing confidence to make the news to fit their agenda, not just report it.

    The utterly disgusting treatment of sub postmasters by the Post Office from 2000 onwards, yes over 20 years ago, due to the IT scandal is being revealed day by day at a public enquiry.
    But can we remember that the Post Office was state owned.
    Therefore the government of the day was responsible.

    So why are the BBC not charging around seeking interviews with Tony Blair and Gordon Brown?

    They’re not as reticent when it comes to the current government and their claimed failings over anything and everything, are they?

    And let us also think about that same Post Office as a state enterprise and then wonder why the hell so many want to nationalise things like energy utilities and railways.
    What total, utter madness that would be.

    When the state sector priority is *rse covering, job retention, denial of failings, and passing the buck, the private sector profit motive seems to me to be easily understood and transparent and with its inherent trend of innovation, flexibility, and growth, far more desirable.

    Why does Boris consistently miss these open goals?

    The bloke is between a brick and a hard spot. No matter what he decides to do he’s flogging a dead horse.

    We in this country state innocent until proven guilty.

    All we have is some women who has made an allegation without providing any convincing evidence and we have to believe her. Why is it she waited all these years to come forward..it stinks.

    But regardless, the BBC have him hung drawn and quartered already.

    What! Charles has been naughty?

    1. It is NOT “his” charity, he is merely a figurehead appointed to give it status.

    “He is president of the foundation but is not involved with its governance, with the charity’s trustees overseeing its day-to-day activities.”

    2. The allegation is against a “former valet” and NOT Charles.

    3. The allegations are made on behalf of a “Media” organisation following some details in a “letter”. So the MSM have their grubby hands and informants firmly in place behind this charade.

    This is NOT investigative reporting this is a grudge witch hunt.

    This all stinks to high heaven….How many more of these lefty civil serpents are there infiltrated into our Government and feeding dope back to shadowy Met officials and the lefty press to de-stabilise the government, the Monarchy and eventually the British way of life?

      “In intention, at any rate, the English intelligentsia are Europeanized. 
They take their cookery from Paris and their opinions from Moscow. In the 
general patriotism of the country they form a sort of island of dissident 
thought. England is perhaps the only great country whose intellectuals 
are ashamed of their own nationality. In left-wing circles it is always 
felt that there is something slightly disgraceful in being an Englishman 
and that it is a duty to snigger at every English institution, from horse 
racing to suet puddings. It is a strange fact, but it is unquestionably 
true that almost any English intellectual would feel more ashamed of 
standing to attention during ‘God save the King’ than of stealing from a 
poor box. All through the critical years many left-wingers were chipping 
away at English morale, trying to spread an outlook that was sometimes 
squashily pacifist, sometimes violently pro-Russian, but always 
anti-British.”

      IainW5: I hope you will be able to talk to experts in the issues and not to politicians. In general (certainly UK Govt ones) they are (i) not well qualified, (ii) not objective, and (iii) pushing an agenda which is not about truth and justice.

      John Simpson: This is the rationale for the programme. The only people on it will be BBC correspondents and experts. The range is hugely impressive. No politicians, no spin. Hence the title – ‘Unspun World with John Simpson’.

    Justin Welby – takes down a statue in UK.
    Justin Welby – 0 interest in murdered christians.
    Prince Charles – money for Saudi.
    Prince Charles – “The Prince has said that he wants to be seen as a defender of all religious faiths and not just the Anglican church but the Coronation is an Anglican ceremony. Any change would require legislation.” Prince Charles could also choose to alter another aspect of his reign, taking a different name than Charles III.2 Jul 2020

      Plus, “A defender of all religious faiths” makes no sense whatsoever. As far as I can see each “faith” has an implicit and inbuilt belief from their scriptures that the only “true” religious path is theirs so how the hell can that ever work?

      A soccer analogy would be a supporter forced to shout their support for both teams.

      If Prince Charles thinks that way then I hope he will not be King. He should be a vigerous defender of our faith, the Christian Faith.

      The choice to have the vaccine will be up to the parents. On balance, it is going to be a good thing. A non urgent offer. No pressure on parents.
      But those parents who fail to take up the offer might have their kids taken away.

        Or worse for the kids, excluded from classes and segregated by some Nazi oriented Teachers who think they work at re-education camps rather than schools!

        Maybe they will make them wear yellow stars at school?

      Not urgent it certainly should be in fact it should taken away altogether-Inncoculating young children with a suspect substance that could well cause damage to their young strong immune system is plain evil- of course in the case of some young children being or having varuous medical complications; nevertheless this particular vaccine, so called, has been severley criticized by a number of imminent Scientist in that area of vaccines therefore until all the tests have been carried out and this will not be until 2023, such a vaccine should not in any event be of suitability for the very young.
