    Can prisoners tell if the security cameras are working?

    I would bet that Ghislaine Maxwell would be terrified if the cameras went ‘faulty’ because she must be in line to be suicided. Hanging usually the preferred method to suicide someone with info on powerful people.

    If I was her I would have everything recorded and left with her lawyers to be opened when somebody suicides her.

      EG
      I think her lawyers might find it difficult getting life insurance too … only a matter of time – and – after all – suicide runs in her family ( maybe ) ….

    CHARLES: Oh stop! I want to feel my way along you, all over you and up and down you and in and out . . .

    CAMILLA: Oh!

    CHARLES: Particularly in and out.

    CAMILLA: Oh, that’s just what I need at the moment.

    CHARLES: Is it?

    Then – in an idea that they probably both still wake up in a cold sweat about even now – they went…even deeper:

    CHARLES: Oh, God. I’ll just live inside your trousers or something. It would be much easier!

    CAMILLA: (laughing) What are you going to turn into, a pair of knickers? (Both laugh). Oh, you’re going to come back as a pair of knickers.

    CHARLES: Or, God forbid, a Tampax. Just my luck! (Laughs)

    CAMILLA: You are a complete idiot! (Laughs) Oh, what a wonderful idea

    As The BBC is excelling as much at misinformation via utter media blackout (censorship), this caught my eye.

    https://cliscep.com/2022/02/19/a-flood-of-disinformation/

    Hardly holding power to account. More propping it up as a tool of state.

    In other news a town councillor expressed dismay that I had sent a lengthy email to all of them concerning XR, Sortition, Citizens; Assemblies and abuses of power backed by media complicity.

    I asked if they had read it.

    The answer was in the negative.

    “Therein lies the problem,” I replied.

    Donkeys misinformed by jackals installing cuckoos into positions they are unqualified for.

    ‘Don’t you see that the whole aim of Newspeak is to narrow the range of thought? In the end we shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there will be no words in which to express it. Every concept that can ever be needed, will be expressed by exactly one word, with its meaning rigidly defined and all its subsidiary meanings rubbed out and forgotten. Already, in the Eleventh Edition, we’re not far from that point. But the process will still be continuing long after you and I are dead. Every year fewer and fewer words, and the range of consciousness always a little smaller. Even now, of course, there’s no reason or excuse for committing thoughtcrime. It’s merely a question of self-discipline, reality-control. But in the end there won’t be any need even for that. The Revolution will be complete when the language is perfect. Newspeak is Ingsoc and Ingsoc is Newspeak,’ he added with a sort of mystical satisfaction. ‘Has it ever occurred to you, Winston, that by the year 2050, at the very latest, not a single human being will be alive who could understand such a conversation as we are having now?’

    ‘Except—’ began Winston doubtfully, and he stopped.

    BBC R.4 right now: James Naughtie on Ireland becoming one again. Good that the BBC is planning the next war in Ireland.

    All one way thinking: N. Ireland is absorbed by the South. Me, just ‘tinking’ (as they say) what if the UK offered Ireland the opportunity to ditch the EU and be absorbed by the UK? ………

      and did say that in the ultra long term the situation will change, just like the rest of the UK will change.

        Just offering an option for an alternative, certainly not a critique of the overall situation. More a critique of the BBC in not asking the question.
        Population of Ireland about 5 million; Population of NI about 1.9 million, roughly 38%.

    There was an assumption that since the RC birth rate was far higher than that unionist then there would be a referendum on a united ireland … which the RCs would ‘win ‘

    …. But the big assumption was that both religions would be solid and tribal .
    The more relevant question might now be – do you want to be ruled by the UK or EU ?

    Why is the likes of naughtie raising this now ? Perhaps he’d do better worrying about his only mini state than the Irish one ….

    But I suppose it’s divide and rule as usual with the BBC ___

    Here’s a rare thing. A well known reporter on leftist NBC TV, with the principles and the courage to say: the msm have gone mad and I’ve had enough; I quit, and I will speak out against wokeness.

    Note the grotesque Whoopi Goldberg actually arguing to perpetuate race-awareness, victimhood and even segregation.

    Not surprising really, as people like her have built a very comfortable career on playing the victim of alleged racism. What would she do without it? She might have to get a real job, for a start.

    So yesterday’s FOOC gave us a story about the Groningen gas field
    which fits with November 2021 Green activists
    but not with 2022 reality
    Anna Holligan told us “Residents developed an addiction to gas ..all appliances run on it ”
    That the gas extraction was causing a huge amount of earthquakes
    She says that Dutch minister will end gas extraction in 2023

    Today someone informed me that in January there was news of the Groningen gas field DOUBLING this years production.
    Why ?
    The Groningen gas is low calorific L-gas and all the appliance that use it in Netherland/Belgium/Germany can’t accept normal gas.
    #1 The Dutch are building a Nitrogen plant to dilute imported gas to make it L-gas but that won’t be be ready for ages.
    #2 Germany has activated long term contracts which means the Netherlands has to deliver more.
    So the Netherlands government will have to approve the increase in production
    and balance it with tremor compensation.
    2023 seems not like an end date, but rather the start of winding down to 2030.

    The tremor claim
    OK it’s real the first fund of €220m has run out
    but still the problem is not running into billions.
    I wonder if extraction can be managed ie extract at the opposite end of the field to where houses are etc.

      “The Nigerian artwork challenging British history in St Paul’s”

      “This image of the oba, or king, of Benin dominates the space, through which thousands of visitors pass every week, and draws the eye.

      Next to it – barely readable and tarnished through time – is a much smaller brass memorial plaque in honour of Admiral Sir Harry Holdsworth Rawson, who led a punitive expedition in 1897 to the West African kingdom of Benin.

      He oversaw the British soldiers and sailors who destroyed a centuries-old civilisation, looting and burning down the oba’s palace in what is now Benin City in the Nigerian state of Edo.

      Their looted treasures – thousands of metal sculptures and ivory carvings made between the 15th and 19th Centuries and collectively known as the Benin Bronzes – are now at the centre of a debate about the return of artefacts taken during the colonial era.

      But as his plaque recalls, Rawson was revered at the time for his exploits right across the British Empire.”

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harry_Rawson

      “The Oba of Benin is the traditional ruler and the custodian of the culture of the Edo people and all Edoid people. The ancient Benin homeland (not to be confused with the modern-day and unrelated Republic of Benin, which was then known as Dahomey) has been and continues to be mostly populated by the Edo (also known as Benin ethnic group).[1]

      In 1897, a British military force under the command of Sir Harry Rawson mounted the Benin Expedition of 1897 against the Kingdom of Benin. The expedition captured the capital of the Kingdom of Benin, sacking and burning the city while forcing the Oba of Benin, Ovonramwen, into a six-month exile, and was mounted due to the ambush of a British party by a group of Benin soldiers acting without orders from the Oba that had led to the deaths of all but two of the party.[2] The expeditionary force consisted of both indigenous soldiers and British officers based in colonial-era Nigeria. Numerous artworks (collectively known as the Benin Bronzes) looted from the city palace were sold off to defray the costs of the expedition.[3][4] Ovonramwen died in 1914, his throne never having been restored to him. His son, grandson and now his great-grandson, however, all preserved their title and status as traditional rulers in modern-day Nigeria.[5]”

      “The Slave Trade, Depopulation and Human Sacrifice in Benin History”

      “The Oba of Benin was the head of a regime of terror based on kidnapping, enslavement, torture, human sacrifice, witchcraft, and cannibalism.”

    Halifax “It’s a People Thing” advert

    It is OK for a Halifax advert to say “we are with the people”
    but you’d expect them to come to a town and film the GENUINE PEOPLE
    not to come to a town, push the locals out of the way and get actors to represent the town instead.

    Now if the advert is supposed to a fictitious place to represent a typical town then you might bring in a couple of outsiders to represent the true UK demographic.

    The ad full 40s video
    0-6s Black female jogger
    8s White fat young male
    9s-12s Black male pensioner with white male pensioner .. black female in the background
    15s-19s Young football kids 2x black male, 2 x white dark haired male, 2 white female
    19s-21s Repeat White fat young male
    22s-24s 2 large Staffie dogs
    26s-29s Repeat White fat young male
    29s-30s Young white couple ..she has blond hair (the only fair haired actor featured)
    35s-40s Indian pregnant female, Halifax staff fat dark woman

    About 20 people walk past in the background, 2 of them are black

    I reckon if I stood on Goole High St for an hour , 50% of the people would be white with white or bald hair
    And less that 1 in 200 would be black

    We have always been peaceful and waiting for the government to negotiate with us
    ..they have always refused
    Now due to police violence we are asking to retreat
    but again that is a free choice for individuals.

    The BBC are absolutely not in favour of the likely further relaxation of covid rules, judging by the 1730 BBC1 news.

    Their favourite experts are literally queuing up to tell us how dangerous it all is.

    Weirdly for an ‘impartial broadcaster’ the opposite view ( for balance you understand) gets little or no airtime at all.

    I wonder why not?

    How about some airtime for the opinion that Omicron is the vaccination we forgot to develop? Contentious? Maybe. But as part of an overall picture? Maybe coverage of the many research papers on the benefits of natural immunity in terms of low re-infection levels?
    How about it, BBC?
    No? Thought not.

    For the woke snowflake eco-warrior mindset, look no further than BBC 1. Countryfile.
    Sugar Beet in Norfolk. Those nasty sugar factories have the temerity to want to improve their productivity ( imagine that in the NHS) so smaller sugar beet tops are left in the fields.
    This is bad news for……..Geese.

    Yes, the BBC want taxpayers to subsidise inefficient production so Geese can land in the fields.

    And this remember is an industry that benefitted from decades of EU I.e taxpayer subsidies to create trade barriers with more efficient Cane producers. And when that stopped they invented subsidised demand in the form of Biofuels directives.

    Absolutely unbelievable.
