Lutfur Rahman: Ex-mayor banned for ‘corrupt and illegal practices’ re-elected in London’s Tower Hamlets
Lutfur Rahman was removed as mayor of Tower Hamlets in 2015 after an election court found him guilty of corrupt and illegal practices.
Ahmadis suffer vicious persecution around the world. The main source of fuel for that persecution is in Pakistan, but what happens in Pakistan does not stay in Pakistan.
I know that from my experience in the Yorkshire market town of Batley. In August 1985, when I was 11 years old, my parents organised an inter-faith meeting in the town hall. It was interrupted and disturbed when, according to West Yorkshire police, more than 1,000 extremists, led by Pakistani hate preachers funded by the Pakistani state, were bused in from around the country. The mob brutally attacked my English mother and my father, a dermatologist; my eldest brother and I; and a Welsh Ahmadi schoolteacher who was with us. My first cousin, a GP, was by chance driving through the market town that day. He saw the mob and saw his family and friends being attacked, so he stopped. He was recognised, pulled from his vehicle and savagely beaten up.

Many of the concerns the Defense Department has about the social media application all pertain to the app’s Chinese ownership, and fears that the program could be used to gather intelligence on American personnel. These fears were first addressed by Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Florida, who requested that the Treasury Department look into the national security implications of TikTok’s data storage practices in relation to Chinese laws mandating ready access to all data stored within the nation’s servers. In effect, Chinese law states that the government can access any and all information that flows through Chinese servers without giving notice to service providers, companies, or end users. In the event TikTok data travels through Chinese servers, that means the Chinese government can access any and all data collected from its user’s smartphones without the need for a warrant or any form of notification.

The Times newspaper carries the story of a sort of cress seed being grown in 12g of moondust. TOADY covered it also in the first 40 minutes of the programme. Something tells me, someone was pulling the leg of the Times ‘back desk’ and the BBC appear to have been spoofed along with The Thunderer.
First thing, “You can imagine trying to grow plants on the lunar surface with a biodome over them shining light adding nutrients and pouring water on” I quote Dr Mark Symes, a Glasgow University Chemist who was not part of the research and was quoted on the Times’ front page. Well, the standard of academia is obviously not what it was when I was a late teen.
Does no-one realise, both at the Times and at the BBC, that the sun shines on the moon as it does on the earth? No additional lighting will be required. In addition, because the moon has no atmosphere and no clouds, there is nothing to moderate the radiation of warmth from sunlight, therefore shining light on the plants in a biodome is likely to be unnecessary unless you want to ‘force’ early growth. In addition, water is heavy and it is unlikely there will be spare water for plants on the moon. Growing them in a bio-nutrient liquid would be much more efficient in terms of payload. This has already been done in the UK.
I recommend the Editor of the Times and an Editor of TOADY despatch journalists poste haste to Cambridge and also to Thanet Earth near Margate for a quick tour and enhanced understanding of bio-generation. Or you could just refer to the Saturday Telegraph Magazine (cannot remember which day/month/year) who have all the details from a visit to Thanet Earth. (Greenslade voice from Goon Show): “And a jolly good read it was, too.”
“The experimental zones need to use the Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism as guiding theory…to actively cultivate and execute the core socialist values, pushing through the transformation of wedding traditions, inheriting and developing excellent traditional Chinese marriage and family culture, and advocating the society to develop correct marriage and family values,” wrote the document from the department, referring to the Communist leader’s ideological blueprint for how to lead China.
Underlying the Party-style jargon is the government’s deep worry about China’s dropping marriage rate, with the number of marriages declining 12% to 8.1 million in 2020.

Sadiq Khan’s business-class flight touched down at Heathrow on Friday morning as his five-day trip of the USA came to an end. During the jaunt, aimed at boosting London’s tourist industry, the city’s mayor went on a walkabout in New York City, pressed the flesh in Los Angeles and even visited a cannabis dispensary on America’s west coast.
“Nice try,” Mr Khan said when asked in downtown LA whether he would be tempted to try cannabis again.
“Plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery,” he told an audience near Skid Row in Los Angeles – misquoting another famous London resident who travelled to the USA, Oscar Wilde.

In general, the information reviewed was factual and editorially aligned with the far-left, especially as it relates to economics.”
Do you recall that at the start of 2022 inflation was ‘ transitory ‘ – a message put out by various crooked economists and politicians.

The BBC were spotted years ago picking up stories from the Guardian. These days the BBC, via a nameless Editor, seems to initiate stories for the Labour supporting, Left-Wing, press. But this morning on TOADY it was back to the Guardian fed item with the story of the 61 year old Ukrainian man, Igor Pedin [ good family name, nudge nudge 😉 😉 ] who walked 140 miles from Mariupol to Zaporizhzhia with his nine year old terrier dog.
It could be a true story but alarm bells ring, especially after the moon dust thing. Igor Pedin (good name that, is it a clue?) tells his story not from Zaporizhzhia but from Kyiv. How did he get there? Walk again? If Mariupol is 140 miles from Zaporizhzhia, Zaporizhzhia to Kyiv is more than twice that. There is something fishy about this tale. Contrast it with another fishy newspaper front page, that of the Metro today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-61431717 You will have to be quick as the BBC wipe the images from their Blog from around 9.30 p.m. to 10 p.m. onwards.
Of course no hard questions were asked on TOADY. It was presented as certain fact. For example: if this man – a cigarette smoker – was fit enough to walk 140 miles, why was he not helping defend his country against the Russian invaders?
Low-cost air travel? (Today’s episode) I think not. The BBC have obviously not heard of Jim Laker or his successor, Richard Branson. £3 billion + for this ?!!!

Do you recall that at the start of 2022 inflation was ‘ transitory ‘ – a message put out by various crooked economists and politicians.
Well Tucker Carlson – yesterday – ran through the pain of increasing inflation across coming Years ….( my view) … but included footage of a congresswomen (dem) arguing that abortion should be freely available because children can be expensive… evil .

ITV local news last night “continuing our series on the church and sexuality, we will talk about The Church of England considering a change to allow same sex couples to marry in church”
.. The local couple featured seemed like 2 men
but one spoke like a woman
When I checked the catchup .. strangely our version didn’t have that couple , instead it has the same lesbian couple the Sheffield edition had on.

BBC local news “Cost of Living Crisis”
The on the coast reporter really hyped it up.
But then the studio discussion took a swerve
It was about how 1 million entitled pensioners don’t claim the pension credit they are entitled to.

TOADY Watch #4 – I think we should be told
The BBC were spotted years ago picking up stories from the Guardian. These days the BBC, via a nameless Editor, seems to initiate stories for the Labour supporting, Left-Wing, press. But this morning on TOADY it was back to the Guardian fed item with the story of the 61 year old Ukrainian man, Igor Pedin [ good family name, nudge nudge 😉 😉 ] who walked 140 miles from Mariupol to Zaporizhzhia with his nine year old terrier dog.
It could be a true story but alarm bells ring, especially after the moon dust thing. Igor Pedin (good name that, is it a clue?) tells his story not from Zaporizhzhia but from Kyiv. How did he get there? Walk again? If Mariupol is 140 miles from Zaporizhzhia, Zaporizhzhia to Kyiv is more than twice that. There is something fishy about this tale. Contrast it with another fishy newspaper front page, that of the Metro today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-61431717 You will have to be quick as the BBC wipe the images from their Blog from around 9.30 p.m. to 10 p.m. onwards.
Of course no hard questions were asked on TOADY. It was presented as certain fact. For example: if this man – a cigarette smoker – was fit enough to walk 140 miles, why was he not helping defend his country against the Russian invaders?

WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN THE NINETIES?
Low-cost air travel? (Today’s episode) I think not. The BBC have obviously not heard of Jim Laker or his successor, Richard Branson. £3 billion + for this ?!!!

I’ve been a bit busy today so have just caught up with comments here.
MarkyMark… I do have an interest in this topic, family history etc. But I rarely contribute to this site, so I am curious as to how you know this, and chose to include me in your comment (see bottom of partial quote below).

The BBC acting as a credulous if not complicit conduit for every Labour stirrer is getting beyond tiresome.

Last I knew, the circumstances leading up to this remain at best opaque.
So the BBC, Corbyn, etc, being at the centre of it all is unsurprising.

I’m always extremely sceptical when any activist videos like this start with the police attack and don’t show what happened earlier. I’m 100% certain they didn’t do it for no reason.
The Left are complete hypocrites. They don’t care one bit about right and wrong. Only their agenda. Their ethics disgust me.
At least Lammy spoke out eh ?. Their is no racism bandwagon he won’t jump on.
