The weekend of the 75th anniversary Victory in Europe Day . When freedom defeated tyranny . The BBC wouldn’t see its ‘ current form as a tyrant . But it is one if you are an ‘unapproved ‘ victim .
I have Nigerian, Soviet and Albanian fiances now with my bank details and pin numbers
Should I be worried about monkey pox ?
All their grandmothers are ill and need expensive medical treatment which is a worry
And the Nigerian one seems to have dyslexia apart from when she talks about financial matters which seems to enthuse her, she has a poor education but knows a lot about banks and money transfer and things
maybe its the poor laptop she has to use in her famine area
Spotted news on YT regarding the current riots in Sweden & Norway AGAINST the muslim population BY fed up Swedes/Norwegians. All the usual: setting fire to police vehicles; property damage etc. In Austria, efforts underway to impose severe restrictions on muslims and mosques. This is News.
Needless to say, involving the BBC’s preferred people/religion, not a squeak. Just continue to mould the thinking of the UK viewer/listener by and including not reporting. ‘Everything’s fine with the World’……….
With the current rate of immigration and a free for all entry system, expect the above to be the norm in our towns and villages by the year 2100. What’s left of the white population will have fled to our surrounding islands.
Today’s do-gooders just don’t “get” it, that with the birth rate of BAMES their grandkids will be ‘smothered’ by migrants in all walks of life.
I’ve said it before, but taking in migrants – black and white from Eastern Europe, there will be no-one left here that will have a history here before 1950. Shameful.
On a sudden whim one inquires of google – should a lawyer ask their client if they are guilty?
Of course the answer is as old as Rumpole of the Bailey.
A lawyer – in the case of those performing before a court of law – is better termed an advocate for the interests of their client, a counsel advising and acting in the interests of their client. Whether that client be an authority seeking prosecution or private party seeking to avoid prosecution.
In these days of such elevated debate as our very own televised Punch & Judy PMQs, and moreover in times when any and all conservative-leaning leaders are literally worse than Hitler – therefore deserving locking up – it’s no wonder supporters of the Labour Party became excited at the prospect of a former lawyer, steeped in forensic genius, turning up to put their case.
No one cares if a barrister who – let’s say, batters a fox to death over Christmas – is ironically appointed to prosecute a case of animal cruelty. His personal behaviour has no bearing on the matter in hand.
What would it matter if a brief who had – so rumour would claim – fiddled her expenses, took some time off from her diplomatic day job to prosecute a common case of fraud? Her reputation shouldn’t colour the opininon of the jury as to the outcome of the case.
Guido Fawkes is keen to tell us of: ‘Six times Labour lawmakers were lawbreakers‘ – he misses the point. Boris Johnson and the Tories are the ones on trial here, don’t you see? The job of the Left is put the case for the prosecution. So too the broad class of journalists. Including licence payer-funded BBC journos. Forget their personal behaviours, won’t you? Turn a blind eye to the Kay Burley/Beth Rigby birthday party – concentrate instead on their relentless advocacy for strict Lockdown. Forget Keir Starmer QC’s hypocrisy and focus on Boris Johnson’s hypocrisy. See how it works?
And as they tend to conclude – I rest my case, m’lud.
M’lud is of course a bit of an anachronism, I know, as no doubt will soon be wigs and gowns, consigned to the dressing up box of history, as dressing up per se and formal addressing quickly fall by the wayside: ‘Just William. Royals’ modern shake-up. Cambridges to scrap protocol and use first names on duty‘ (Sunday Mirror)
‘Camilla’s secret love… for Heinz baked beans‘ (Mail on Sunday) – the Dutch tend to enjoy, to my taste, a rather overly informal, famously cycling monachy. I’m not sure us British look forward to an elderly overly farting one.
Seriously, if the monarchy ditches all the bells and whistles, then what’s the point? Ditch the mystique, you may as well ditch the institution.
Henry James wrote the gothic horror novella The Turn of the Screw at the close of the nineteenth century.
The sense of the title is an action that makes a bad situation worse – a ramping up of tension. Tightening seems to be the order of the day.
‘Hong Kong’s John Lee: Ex-security chief becomes new leader… after a closed voting process in which he was the sole candidate. His appointment is being widely seen as a move by the Chinese government to tighten its grip on the city‘ (BBC)
‘Taliban to enforce burqa as laws for women tightened‘ (Sunday Telegraph)
And as the liberal west loses its grip and most of the world goes off on a very different tangent, the Observer finds reason to revel in: ‘Seismic Sinn Féin victory fuels debate on future of the union‘
Naturally the Sunday Times takes the success of the party of bullets and ballot boxes as yet another opportunity to ponder not the death of the Union but to flog the almost dead and burried Brexit horse: ‘Sinn Fein win reawakens Brexit tensions‘ – small note: the still vaguely patriotic Sunday Times typeface eschews the foreign affectation of accents in the Irish Gaelic in which the Observer revels. Talking of long dead and buried horses… in these days of righteous re-litigation of long past events… what did the IRA do with Shergar? There’s one for the teenagers.
Once our media get ahold of a theme they do seem to flog it to death. Partygate, Beergate... ‘Booze missiles. Ukrainian hackers halt Putin’s victory party vodka‘ (Sunday People) – if only we could truly believe a single word among the choking fog of war propaganda on that subject… and if only this story in particular were true.
We do enjoy the cartoonist Matt in the Telegraph. Today he has a time traveller back from the future demand: “…to buy a loaf of bread and a litre of Unleaded” – apparently, despite Brexit, we won’t ever get to enjoy the return of the gallon, eh Matt? Looking to the bright side, our cartoonist having his time traveller request petrol clearly doesn’t envisage Net Zero elimination of fossil fuels anytime soon.
A request for Super-Leaded if such a thing were to come to pass would have had me smile and the Greenies wince. One here recalls Woody Allen’s time traveller in the movie Sleeper arriving in a distant future and having medics insist he smoke cigarettes for health.
As the fleet approaches the Suez Canal, Egyptian military forces fire a warning shot, causing the fleet to steer south, around the Cape of Good Hope. To the surprise of observers, the apartheid regime of South Africa floats out barges of food and supplies, which the migrants throw overboard. The international press is thrilled, believing the rejection of these supplies to be a political statement against the apartheid South African regime. Western leaders, confident the migrants will accept supplies from their “more virtuous” nations, organize a supply mission, funded by governments, charities, rock stars and major churches, to meet the migrants off São Tomé. However, the fleet does not stop for these barges either, and when a worker from the Pope’s barge attempts to board one of the ships, he is strangled and thrown overboard. The press attempts to contain coverage of the murder.
‘Victory in Europe Day’ in the UK has been branded ‘Europe Day’ by the EU Commission
At 11.01 on 08 May 1945, the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany went into effect, having been signed in Reims, France the previous day by General Jodl of the German High Command.
Accordingly, the United Kingdom has always recognised 08 May as ‘Victory in Europe Day’. Across the EU, however, things are a little different.
Go to any EU website and you will read about ‘Europe Day’ which takes place tomorrow. Not a day of remembrance and celebration of victory marking the end of World War II in Europe, more a celebration of the ‘glorious’ thing that is the European Union.
Appears he’s a young-ish Scottish-Rwandan (!) who’s played a gay character on some series or other.
From the few seconds of research I’ve done, that first name is pronounced ‘shooti.’ You know, like Shooty and Bang-Bang, the trigger happy cops from Hitch-Hiker’s Guide.
Will he be the first Doctor to swap his sonic screwdriver for a Makarov and a switchblade?
I mean, it’s not as if Nigerians were using the Latin alphabet before the arrival of the Portuguese, is it? So no excuse for not spelling a traditional Nigerian name phonetically I can think of, or am I missing something?
I’d say ‘No Cutie’, or you could move the n along two places to make it more traditionally British if you wanted to fit in.
So a female ‘Dr Who’, now a gay, black one… where next? Shame no one watches it any more, but boxes are getting ticked, that’s the important thing.
Sorry, don’t know why I was thinking No Coati was Nigerian, he is, as others have rightly said, Rwandan… and Scottish… surprised if he won’t be wearing a kilt, as the new Scottish Doctor.
Good luck to him, I’m sure he’s a lovely lad, and we’re all being mean (because we’re sick to death of the BBC and it’s oh so predictable, and oh so pathetic political correctness, so last decade).
The new black Dr Who is the BBC saying ‘F*ck you’ in typical lefty spite because Jodi was so roundly rejected by the viewers.
Cutting analysis of the topic by the BBC’s entertainment correspondent Lizo Mzimba (also black) with insights such as:
‘Doctor Who, like so many programmes, is eager to win back some of those younger viewers, so the sheer interest from someone like him being involved is going to help with that.’.
No it isn’t Lizo.
‘… so he’s not just been cast because of what he can demographically bring in.’
Yes he has Lizo. Just as Jodi was. And look what a complete failure that has been.
‘It’s a double bonus because he can bring in that demographic and in theory give a fantastic performance as the Doctor.’
Good God Lizo. Are you 10 ?.
Then we have the usual assortment of quotations parising the decision: Olly Alexander (gay), Tweets from Robert Daniels (black), ‘Kelechi’ (black woman) and Ash Sarkar (black woman).
All with the usual links to twitter and ‘The BBC are not responsible blah blah’ so they can point us at left-wing+black activists without responsibility.
I would have thought a ‘Have Your Say’ on the actual article would have been more appropriate. We all know why they didn’t.
And then – just when you thought the BBC couldn’t get more ridiculous – they include a link to:
I predict that Northern Ireland will, ‘kick off’ again in the not too distant future. All thanks to the EU and a British Government who didn’t see things coming. Beneficiaries? Ireland. The vision of Reunification. In the current desire to create, ‘Standing Room’ only in England, Unionist ‘Refugees’ can be taken in.
Btw, how long does anyone think it will be before house owners in England will be relieved of their property rights if the property is too large for them?
Yes it can’t be long delayed and race riots across England will happen soon. Since the Blair sponsored invasion we haven’t really had it tough as a country, food shortages, cold houses , no petrol etc etc. But it seems to be on the cards that we are going to have a deep and prolonged recession coupled with massive inflation. We will see how a multicultural society functions and holds together under the strain.
“Capt Svyatoslav Kalina Palamar described intense Russian shelling”
Well Russia seemed happy to claim they’d taken Mauripol , and leave the steel plant defenders surrounded to come out in their own time.
But the Western governments and media, couldn’t let it go , claiming they were the 300 Spartans; it was the siege of Stalingrad etc, mocking Putin for not controlling every inch.
No wonder Russia started attacking again.
‘Another fighter, Lt Illia Samoilenko, then spoke for almost two hours, most of it in English. He started by heavily criticising “the government”, without giving details, saying it had let 25,000 people be “murdered by the Russian army” in the city, a figure that cannot be independently verified.’
I said at the time that giving out tens of thousands of rifles to any civilian who wanted one was an absolutely atrocious plan. But the BBC glorified it.
You take potshots at an army, you get shells and mortars raining down on your whole neighbourhood. Then – when they come to clear the rooms – they throw grenades first and ask questions later.
The fighting should be done by soldiers under a proper command. Those civilians should have only been given weapons when they put on a uniform and come under someones command.
I’m disappointed. An actor Ncuti Gatwa from Rwanda is to be
the next Dr Who. I was hoping that Clive Myrie may of got the
role. Never mind there is always the Antiques Road Show
or Question Time. When The BBC ,for sure diversify away from
their white women presenters.
Made possible by the unique way the BBC is funded. If it had a proper free market funding model and it had to attract audiences with quality content you wouldn’t be seeing any of this because the BBC would be bankrupt.
Foscari, re the new Dr Who. Just heard him on the news saying how he was proud to be “pushing the narrative” . He didn’t say anything about how good an actor he was and why he was suited as an actor to be doctor who because of his particular talents, only that he was proud to be “pushing the narrative” .
The BBC don’t seem to be able to make a simple TV show without politics any more.
Ran into an Afghan refugee in the elevator today. He was delivering groceries. Didn’t know which buttons to push so I helped. Must have been new. As he got off the elevator, he thanked me and said “I am Afghan.” I said good luck and welcome to America. He smiled. He’s on his way.

Also Neil looks a lot better in himself, it feels a lot more comfortable to watch. No doubt the behind the scenes antics at #GBeebies caused a lot of stress
There’s no comparison between a brief pause for food while working, and the serial rule-breaking that Boris Johnson oversaw in Downing Street.

I reckon they have decided to stay quiet until plod finishes the white wash.
But an organised event – inside – with large numbers – is surely gonna be tricky to get out of .
And if it is true that starmer now has a legal team to defend himself over a ‘ work meeting’ isnt going to impress the court of public opinion …
Its trivial stuff in our current troubles but he started it … there are some excellent labour replacements guaranteed to lose the next election – however much nut nut screws up the next 2 years ..
Makes you wonder about liaison between met plod and Durham plod in relation to the issue of penalty notices , interviews – questionnaires – the Gray Report will be celebrating Christmas ….
“A geologist who faces the death penalty overseas for allegedly smuggling artefacts was “heartbroken” to miss his daughter’s wedding, his family said.
Jim Fitton, 66, from Bath, was held after collecting stones and shards of pottery while visiting Eridu in Iraq.
The Iraqi authorities said the items were artefacts, and he was detained at the airport.
“He sent us a message saying: ‘You all look great, all my love to you all,’ said his son-in-law Sam Tasker.
Mr Fitton’s daughter Leila and Mr Tasker held a small ceremony last August, which was limited to close friends because of Covid.
A larger celebration took place on Friday 6 and Sunday 8 May in Malaysia where Mr Fitton and his wife Sarijah live.”
Do they live in Bath, or in Malaysia?
“Mr Tasker said Mr Fitton was “putting a brace face” on his situation.”
Brave?
“”I think it was a bittersweet moment for him really; he’d prefer to be with us,” he said.”
Yes, I think I’d rather be with them in Bath, or Malaysia, or wherever they are, than in an Iraqi prison facing a death sentence for smuggling historical artefacts too.
As the BBC concludes a whole day of commemorating the 75th anniversary of VE Day* … we say goodbye to the weekend thread – and welcome – perhaps our last thread before the Russian nuclear tidal wave ( can’t spell psunami)
To the shores of Blighty …
( did it get a mention at all ? )
We should also celebrate the coming of a new Doctor Who – as a reminder that nothing really changes …
The predictable attempts by to discredit the film by the usual Leftist ‘fact checkers’ are extremely weak which tells me a lot.
Their only actual point seems to be that the cellphone data is not accurate enough to prove beyond doubt the mules actually went to the drop boxes. The sheer weight of evidence rubbishes that theory but they don’t mention that.
The rest is the usual attempts to discredit the author and repeat statements by officials.
If the BBC cannot come up with something to make the average idiot believe it is fake, they will simply not report it.
I must say I’m stunned by how much data is collected about us and then sold.
In the 2010s, personal data belonging to millions of Facebook users was collected without their consent by British consulting firm Cambridge Analytica, predominantly to be used for political advertising.[1]

On a sudden whim one inquires of google – should a lawyer ask their client if they are guilty?
Of course the answer is as old as Rumpole of the Bailey.
A lawyer – in the case of those performing before a court of law – is better termed an advocate for the interests of their client, a counsel advising and acting in the interests of their client. Whether that client be an authority seeking prosecution or private party seeking to avoid prosecution.

‘Doctor Who, like so many programmes, is eager to win back some of those younger viewers, so the sheer interest from someone like him being involved is going to help with that.’.
No it isn’t Lizo.
‘… so he’s not just been cast because of what he can demographically bring in.’
Yes he has Lizo. Just as Jodi was. And look what a complete failure that has been.
‘It’s a double bonus because he can bring in that demographic and in theory give a fantastic performance as the Doctor.’
Good God Lizo. Are you 10 ?.
Then we have the usual assortment of quotations parising the decision: Olly Alexander (gay), Tweets from Robert Daniels (black), ‘Kelechi’ (black woman) and Ash Sarkar (black woman).
All with the usual links to twitter and ‘The BBC are not responsible blah blah’ so they can point us at left-wing+black activists without responsibility.
I would have thought a ‘Have Your Say’ on the actual article would have been more appropriate. We all know why they didn’t.
And then – just when you thought the BBC couldn’t get more ridiculous – they include a link to:
‘Dr Who to let Trans people tell Trans stories’.

I predict that Northern Ireland will, ‘kick off’ again in the not too distant future. All thanks to the EU and a British Government who didn’t see things coming. Beneficiaries? Ireland. The vision of Reunification. In the current desire to create, ‘Standing Room’ only in England, Unionist ‘Refugees’ can be taken in.
Btw, how long does anyone think it will be before house owners in England will be relieved of their property rights if the property is too large for them?
You will own nothing and be happy.

Yes it can’t be long delayed and race riots across England will happen soon. Since the Blair sponsored invasion we haven’t really had it tough as a country, food shortages, cold houses , no petrol etc etc. But it seems to be on the cards that we are going to have a deep and prolonged recession coupled with massive inflation. We will see how a multicultural society functions and holds together under the strain.

We’re basically dead – fighter at besieged steel plant
15:01
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-europe-61343815
“Capt Svyatoslav Kalina Palamar described intense Russian shelling”
Well Russia seemed happy to claim they’d taken Mauripol , and leave the steel plant defenders surrounded to come out in their own time.
But the Western governments and media, couldn’t let it go , claiming they were the 300 Spartans; it was the siege of Stalingrad etc, mocking Putin for not controlling every inch.
No wonder Russia started attacking again.
‘Another fighter, Lt Illia Samoilenko, then spoke for almost two hours, most of it in English. He started by heavily criticising “the government”, without giving details, saying it had let 25,000 people be “murdered by the Russian army” in the city, a figure that cannot be independently verified.’
Fighter? why not write soldier.🦧

I said at the time that giving out tens of thousands of rifles to any civilian who wanted one was an absolutely atrocious plan. But the BBC glorified it.
You take potshots at an army, you get shells and mortars raining down on your whole neighbourhood. Then – when they come to clear the rooms – they throw grenades first and ask questions later.
The fighting should be done by soldiers under a proper command. Those civilians should have only been given weapons when they put on a uniform and come under someones command.

I’m disappointed. An actor Ncuti Gatwa from Rwanda is to be
the next Dr Who. I was hoping that Clive Myrie may of got the
role. Never mind there is always the Antiques Road Show
or Question Time. When The BBC ,for sure diversify away from
their white women presenters.

Made possible by the unique way the BBC is funded. If it had a proper free market funding model and it had to attract audiences with quality content you wouldn’t be seeing any of this because the BBC would be bankrupt.

Foscari, re the new Dr Who. Just heard him on the news saying how he was proud to be “pushing the narrative” . He didn’t say anything about how good an actor he was and why he was suited as an actor to be doctor who because of his particular talents, only that he was proud to be “pushing the narrative” .
The BBC don’t seem to be able to make a simple TV show without politics any more.

Going by the ads, if you have a family and the father isn’t black, then he needs to be divorced and replaced with a black stepdad.

I reckon they have decided to stay quiet until plod finishes the white wash.
But an organised event – inside – with large numbers – is surely gonna be tricky to get out of .
And if it is true that starmer now has a legal team to defend himself over a ‘ work meeting’ isnt going to impress the court of public opinion …
Its trivial stuff in our current troubles but he started it … there are some excellent labour replacements guaranteed to lose the next election – however much nut nut screws up the next 2 years ..

Detained man in Iraq ‘heartbroken’ to miss daughter’s wedding
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-somerset-61371516
“A geologist who faces the death penalty overseas for allegedly smuggling artefacts was “heartbroken” to miss his daughter’s wedding, his family said.
Jim Fitton, 66, from Bath, was held after collecting stones and shards of pottery while visiting Eridu in Iraq.
The Iraqi authorities said the items were artefacts, and he was detained at the airport.
“He sent us a message saying: ‘You all look great, all my love to you all,’ said his son-in-law Sam Tasker.
Mr Fitton’s daughter Leila and Mr Tasker held a small ceremony last August, which was limited to close friends because of Covid.
A larger celebration took place on Friday 6 and Sunday 8 May in Malaysia where Mr Fitton and his wife Sarijah live.”
Do they live in Bath, or in Malaysia?
“Mr Tasker said Mr Fitton was “putting a brace face” on his situation.”
Brave?
“”I think it was a bittersweet moment for him really; he’d prefer to be with us,” he said.”
Yes, I think I’d rather be with them in Bath, or Malaysia, or wherever they are, than in an Iraqi prison facing a death sentence for smuggling historical artefacts too.
Who writes this drivel, the placement student?

As the BBC concludes a whole day of commemorating the 75th anniversary of VE Day* … we say goodbye to the weekend thread – and welcome – perhaps our last thread before the Russian nuclear tidal wave ( can’t spell psunami)
To the shores of Blighty …
( did it get a mention at all ? )
We should also celebrate the coming of a new Doctor Who – as a reminder that nothing really changes …

The predictable attempts by to discredit the film by the usual Leftist ‘fact checkers’ are extremely weak which tells me a lot.
Their only actual point seems to be that the cellphone data is not accurate enough to prove beyond doubt the mules actually went to the drop boxes. The sheer weight of evidence rubbishes that theory but they don’t mention that.
The rest is the usual attempts to discredit the author and repeat statements by officials.
If the BBC cannot come up with something to make the average idiot believe it is fake, they will simply not report it.
I must say I’m stunned by how much data is collected about us and then sold.

‘Two held in manhunt for axe attackers who killed three Israelis’
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-61370905
A headline which SHOULD read:
‘Two Palestinians held in manhunt for axe attackers who killed three Israelis’
Then later we get:
‘At least 26 Palestinians, including the attackers, have been killed in Israeli raids and confrontations since then.’
So how many attackers were there ?.
This report is so vague, it’s clear the BBC are doing their best to cover up for these murdering terrorist scum.
