Two aspects of the Fight For Freedom this week –
Happy first birthday to GBNews . The Far Left BBC and rest of the woke media and OFCOM haven’t managed to kill off a bit diversity of thought yet …Free Speech in Britain continues to be suppressed -but at least GBNews offers something a bit different .
And on a more sombre note `Tuesday 14th of June commemorates the 40th anniversary of another fight for freedom – The Falklands War – or as the BBC would prefer to call it – The Malvinas …….

Further to utterly rigged propaganda masquerading as news, Twitter’s opening page has a stop the flights thing on Rwanda with a departure lounge rammed with fat ladies of color in curtains, babies in slings and a couple of skinny blokes in denim.
The effect is rather spoiled by every one of them sporting gleaming white designer trainers.
BBC local news
“The Archbishop of York has condemned the Rwanda flights”
Then they played a clip of Dominic Raab justifying them.
Why did they choose to FRAME the story with “Archbishop says” ?
#2 M62 roadworks blah blah
#3 “Councils say rising inflation means they will have to cut services in the winter.”
(eh that’s a bit obvious )
but hang on this is all framing so they can say
#4..”Hull Labour MP says leveling up is happening more in the south than the north”
clip “…Inflation means .. It’s leveling DOWN for everybody”
…. Doh her politics automatically means more inflation
: Crazy Green polices, Covid lockdowns, open borders, payrises mean things COST MORE and therefore the public and the government can buy LESS.
#5 “the Yorkshire based charity the brain tumour Trust says that the cost of living crisis is hitting donations more than covid did”
.. so that’s just words.
#6 “could 30 million tons of carbon dioxide be soon star of the east Yorkshire coast by 2030 ? the government is issuing licences for carbon storage”
Doh CCS is a Holy Grail but no one can get it to work economically never mind stopping The chambers from leaking.
2030 is NOT “soon”
Then they played a clip of the North Sea Transition Authority guy
(government body formerly known as North Sea Oil and Gas Authority)
https://www.nstauthority.co.uk/news-publications/news/2022/bids-invited-in-uk-s-first-ever-carbon-storage-licensing-round/
I meant
but hang on this is all framing so they can say
#4..”Hull Labour MP Diana Johnson says leveling up is happening more in the south than the north”
clip “…Inflation means .. It’s leveling DOWN for everybody”
The references have always baffled, frankly.
The % of color paying in the mud vs. free in the BBC tent would be actually interesting.
The intro there begins
“Sir Lenny Henry has said it is ‘interesting’ to see the apparent lack of black people in the audience at Glastonbury Festival”
It’s a GBnews story
Nottinghill Carnival is about 80% black
Does Lenny Henry expect blacks to be forced into going to Glastonbury, he is on tv a lot these days for some reason?
I wonder how well known this idiot would be if he had tried to make his name in the States or elsewhere. Carry on Henry, yes we know your granny came from the WI and settled in Birmingham (?) because you’re becoming like the rest of the “chip on the shoulder” gang, who’ve made a career on being on the tele, then decide to moan about how terrible we all are. Two words – get stuffed.
“An adult pretender named Lenny Henry.”
A rather scattershot 17-minute video mostly about Amazon’s Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, but also about how bloody awful corporate owned entertainment has become.
Henry and his stupid pronouncements to Empire magazine feature heavily in the second half.
The news headlines… sometimes they act to confirm our priors, to reinforce our prejudices… what I mean is – they may simply tell us things we already regard as being true…
Stop boring everyone to death, shadow cabinet tells Starmer (Times)
Sir Lenny Henry has said it is “interesting” to see the apparent lack of black people in the audience at Glastonbury Festival. (BBC) – not particularly interesting, but it is a fact.
Sturgeon starts new push for independence (Telegraph) – come back to us with new news.
News headlines can also be something akin to what the youngsters term a “hate-watch” where one derives a certain peasure and source of entertainment from the sheer toe-curling awfulness of what is presented – news editors know this…
The giveaway Metro editorial panders to what their corporate advertisers envisage to be a notionally young urban liberal diversity-minded audience: Clear for take-off. Asylum seekers set for Rwanda flight as appeal court rejects last ditch challenge – phrased so as to raise the hackles of armchair lefties and perhaps even as a call to action for a hardcore of real world runway-invading protesters? We’ll soon see.
The Telegraph assumes its audience tend toward Austrian school economics, or at they least reside in a higher tax bracket, so this bulletin should have them spluttering over their cornflakes: No tax cuts before inflation cools off.
The Telegraph still assumes some degree of residual patriotism in its readership: France ‘incresed fuel imports from Russia’ – and if that doesn’t raise the true blue British blood pressure of a morning by a notch or two, then I really don’t know what will?
It’s probably not a sound long-term plan to continually rile up your audience too much – one senses the BBC tries it and declining viewer and listenership figures have been the result.
The alternative is to pander to your base. To cultivate a hardcore of the like-minded within the wider demographic – and sod the rest.
Chuck them some red meat you just know they will gobble up…
Church versus Boris Johnson: bishops tell PM Rwanda flight ‘shames UK’ – nevermind that no copy of the ‘i’ newspaper has ever been found anywhere near an actual parish church. The point is that the lefty atheistic aesthetic – more likely to be Gaia-worshiping than C of E attendee – readership has an assumed in-built reflexive antipathy toward Boris and Tories in general and can happily cheer this headline like they were a home football crowd hearing a positive VAR result for their team.
So too this one for the Daily Mail’s readership: Rwanda flight latest. Court of common sense. To their credit, Judges have THREE TIMES rejected Left-wing activists’ demands to ground migrant flights – and remember folks, the British parliament is supposed to be the sovereign law-maker – so one really has to ask what exactly is the bloody issue here?
The FT panders to a globalist mindset of “Anywheres” an internationalist world citizenry that would be more comfortable should there be some utopian supranational world order: Brussels threatens legal action on bill to tear up N Ireland protocol
Likewise the Guardian readers remain in deep mourning post-Brexit and that title is more than happy to chum those waters: EU to fight UK in court over bid to scrap Brexit checks
As the Mod-father, the Bard of Woking, Paul Weller of The Jam once memorably sang: That’s Entertainment
And to think you thought you were reading “news” headlines…
And finally. Speaking of chumming the waters, we sense the Daily Star may have jumped the shark: Scorchio mahem. Hornet red alert from Spanish plume. Fears of 40C European headwave. Get set for an invasion of killer hornets, heatstroke and airport baggage hell.
Amazing that the bent media isn’t reporting the seismic events on the US stock market yesterday.
Bitcoin lost 10% and withdrawals from the currency were temporarily suspended.
The US stock market lost 4% of its value in one days trading, and this might very well be the start of a moment in history when the second great depression hits the Western world.
You can expect the media not to cover this because it isn’t socialism it’s capitalism, and they will begin to cover it when the effects begin to bite when they will use it to call for even more politics of death and failure.
They really are beyond the pale, and yet so are the so called Conservatives, who are so inept they can only spend money and are all at sea when it comes to managing an economy going through the downward cycle.
Yes thoughtful – I don’t get it either . Are they just ‘thick’?
The UK E employment figures will give the mpc excuse to increase rates by .25% instead of the predicted .5% … meaning inflation will run and run ….. and the £ taking another kicking pushing oil up …. In time for … Christmas ( winter ) …
Perhaps the policy is to make carbon fuels so expensive people can’t afford them and save the planet by cutting the population during big freezes …..
It makes Joe look bad and there are elections in a few months.

Lizzo changes derogatory lyric after backlash
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-61794502
Yet another example of cancel culture being promoted by the BBC. Lizzo changed her lyrics because of a complaint when she used the word “spaz”. A woman with cerebral palsy complained on Twitter with a tweet with just 432 likes.
The BBC frame the whole article like Lizzo is a brilliant person for listening and learning.
Something the BBC don’t tell you is their hero black woman’s lyrics were originally “Hold my bag, bitch, hold my bag. Do you see this shit? I’m a spaz”.
So officially “bitch” and “shit” are still allowed but “spaz” is not. What a messed up world we live in.
Spastic is one of those words that was traditionally very different in British English and American English
where it was mostly held as a medical word, likewise the short form spaz.
However I’m guessing the wokists are rewriting American dictionaries these days

Rather sweet that tv bimbos (and wimmin) still think ‘we spoke to’ does not now offer all info needed on the calibre of their propaganda.
Seems like crankie is going for another referendum on ‘independence ‘ . Scotland is being held back by the Evil English .
I just hope that the reality of independence – currency – borders – passports – work visas – no Barnett formula – is spelled out to the English haters . And that the British parliament stands up for the non Scots ….
… and on that note – since the Irish won’t build a border to control their single market to Northern Ireland – maybe that ‘common travel area ‘ can be looked at as they mouth off against Blighty on behalf of their masters in Brussels ….
Let’s get on with the trade war the EU is itching for – I think I know where most pain will be felt – and it won’t be Blighty …
For starters, they need to see the ‘Real World’ outside . What would they do if the Russians & Chinese started to ‘factory fish’ off their coast ?
Crankie by name and crankie by nature.
I really think Sturgeon has dropped a clanger there, if only they allowed the English to vote she would have mine in a microsecond. I’m sick to death of her and Blackford , if Scotland won independence and it meant no more moaning from them there would be a tsunami of English voters rushing to the booths in my opinion.
Mrs kitty
That is the SNP strategy – to pee the English off – personally I favour their independence – the oil can go to Shetland and Norway – the Scots can be a fully independent country – part of the EU – with a big border wall -Charles the 3rd can be the last king of Scotland ….
Based – of course – on a 66 – 75% pro independence vote with England laying out the rules for afterward

Afghanistan women’s team: They escaped the Taliban but face uncertain football future
https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/61744830
Here we have an example of the BBC ‘lie by repetition’.
They come up with an excuse to reference an old story then tell the whole thing again as if it just happened with yet another extra-large helping of empathy to draw you in. And in a very lengthy article considering it is just rehashing agenda-based old news.
Quite why the author (Muslim born in Iran) and the BBC thinks this Leftist political propaganda belongs in the ‘Sports’ section is beyond me. I suspect they are trying to ensare people who don’t bother on the main pages.
I wonder what life is like for the people still there living in fear under Taliban rule. The BBC clearly thinks these women are much more important.

Trigger warning: This story contains mentions of rape, homophobia, and racism.
“So don’t follow me up and down your market/ Or your little chop-suey ass will be a target/ Of the nationwide boycott/ Juice with the people, that’s what the boy got/So pay respect to the Black fist/ Or we`ll burn your store right down to a crisp/ And then we`ll see ya/ Cause you can’t turn the ghetto into Black Korea.”
“I’m ’bout to dust some cops off/cop killer, better you than me/cop killer, fuck police brutality”
“Though I can freak, fly, flow, fuck up a f*gg0t/Don’t understand their ways, I ain’t down with gays”
“Then I’m dippin’ up the block and I’m robbin’ bitches, too/Up the herringbones and bamboos/I wouldn’t give a fuck if you’re pregnant/Give me the baby rings and the #1 Mom pendant”
“And if you got a daughter older than 15, I’mma rape her/Take her on the living room floor, right there in front of you/Then ask you seriously, what you wanna do?”

Say you don’t care who goes to that kind of place
Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight

We built this city, we built this city on rock and roll
Built this city, we built this city on rock and roll

Latest news on the trip to Rwanda is that the number destined to go is seven.
Surely these could be housed with the archbishop.
Ah yes, but what about the 70 on the return flight? Soon to become 700, then 7,000…
What the media never tells people is that the agreement with Rwanda is bi-lateral – they will take a few of our unwanted but in return we will take thousands of their ‘most vulnerable refugees’. Many of these are from Dr Congo and comprise the sick, mentally ill, elderly and so on, which will provide a further massive drain on the NHS. It’s all there in black and white in paragraph 16 of the ‘Memorandum of Understanding’.

No no no. Black people shoot other black people because white people are racist. Not because they are the base-level violent primitives the rapper lyrics suggest.
And you aren’t allowed to accuse black people of being racist because you can’t fight racism with more racism. The Guardian told me that.

bbc reports on Ukraine, Lysychansk ‘real hell’ as 70 evacuated – local governor
yes 70 have been evacuated
Then I wondered of the population of Lysychansk its over 90,000 – why does the bbc keep reporting on just a few and maybe tomorrow another 5 have been evacuated. I guess the drip feed helps keep the story going and going
I’m surprised they didn’t do an in-depth story about how one was in a wheelchair and was on her way to see her sick mother before she was evacuated.
The BBC really are that bad now. They have almost totally switched from ‘news’ to ’empathy’ – which has no place on a news site. They should put that stuff somewhere else.

Headline from the BBC
Grenfell Tower: Will anyone go to prison?
Yes hopefully all those who committed housing benefit fraud.
All those that sub-let a sub-let to a Sub-let.
All those that had jumped electrical meters.
All those that had interfered with escape routes and fire doors.
But im sure they will find some rich whitey to blame it on.
Grenfell, five years on. A great opportunity for Naga Munchetty on BBC Radio 5 Live to indulge in an orgy of shroud waving. Naga if you remember the one who openly made her own views on Trump clear on the unbiased BBC.
To be fair it wouldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for the greenwashing of the tower with cladding. The problem seems to be that all the involved decision making parties didn’t have an ounce of common sense between them. All those low IQ graduates with inferior degrees and no practical real world/life experience. On Radio 5 it was mentioned that the Council had chosen the cheapest cladding material, so what? They were never going to pay more.

As Ukraine’s struggle against Russia and its proxies continues, Kiev must also contend with a growing problem behind the front lines: far-right vigilantes who are willing to use intimidation and even violence to advance their agendas, and who often do so with the tacit approval of law enforcement agencies.
Civilian areas of Donetsk are being deliberately shelled by Ukranians using French supplied artillery pieces.

Worth a look at the bio of the host, queer country expert Dr. Shana Goldin-Perschbacher, which I would bet ticked all the BBC boxes in addition to rubbing them up the right way:
“Motivated by musical articulations of social justice issues, her explorations of contemporary sonic, visual and social media take shape through critical, ethnographic, analytical, and historical methods. Her book Queer Country, published by the University of Illinois Press in 2022, examines transgender and queer performances of country and Americana music through explorations of sincerity, genre trouble, journey, rurality, misrepresentation, masking, and collaboration.”

I’ve just noticed it and replied to it .. … https://biasedbbc.tv/blog/2022/06/03/weekend-4-june-2022/#comment-1186066
Indeed, if you read my post properly you would see I quoted words from @FedUp’s joke that was the comment above yours.
.. I never said you made a joke.
5 million Tolerant Muslims say show the Or Lady film – oh wait – silence as 3 teachers hide in Batley.
Yesterday’s Cadwalladr ruling was confusing at best. While Mrs Justice Steyn ruled the TED Talk Carole Cadwalladr gave was defamatory, she said Banks had failed to prove that its publication caused “serious harm to reputation”. Part of this was based on a belief that Carole’s followers are mainly an #FBPE echo chamber, therefore unlikely to have had their minds changed by the defamatory Russia claim…

BBC Radio 4 Today – Mishal Husain’s biased diatribe on the Northern Ireland Protocol
See http://www.thereandwhere.com/bbccumulativebias.html
This woman should be sacked.
The BBC also seem to have overlooked the amount of red tape orchestrated by the EU over the past 18 months, designed to delay, confuse and frustrate the management of trade both within and without NI.
Four THOUSAND major and minor changes in legislation would seem excessive in any economy, let alone covering an area the size of some English counties, but the world’s most respected broadcaster obviously doesn’t consider this to be newsworthy.
Quite why the continued pettiness and spite of the EU is not regarded as significant is another of those questions the BBC prefers not to answer – or even investigate.
The EU you say? Orchestrating you say?
Let’s just ponder the politico/media/judicial state that now pervades since Bliar and Campbell worked their magic…

I agree that she has made herself eminently sackable many times over the years, particularly her comment that nor enough Israelis had been murdered for Israel to defend its own people.
At first glance she looks very attractive but then if you look at those eyes it is very chilling. Her eyes are full of cold hate reminiscent of Gerry Adams.
Russia-Ukraine war: Some of UK’s top journalists barred from Russia
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-61796070
“The BBC’s Clive Myrie, Orla Guerin and Nick Robinson, who have reported from Ukraine, and Director General Tim Davie are on the list of 29 media figures.
So too are journalists from Sky TV, The Times, Guardian, Channel Four and ITV.
The British journalists included on the list are involved in deliberate dissemination of false and one-sided information about Russia and events in Ukraine and Donbas,” Russia’s foreign ministry said. “With their biased assessments they also contribute to fuelling Russophobia in British society.”
Hahaha the more I hear from Russia, the more I like them!

“Rwanda asylum plan: PM defends scheme as legal challenges fail”

Thousands of illegal asylum seekers, fugitive criminals, murderers , and rapists, are all queue jumpers and are blocking genuine honest refuges that have waited patiently to get here. Successive weak British Governments have let them down and let us down by putting the people of Great Britain in danger.
Theresa May The Secretary of State for the Home Department 12:37 pm, 20th April 2016
The first priority of government is the safety and security of its citizens, and the Government have always made the integrity of the UK border a priority. We will never compromise on keeping the people of this country safe from terrorism, criminality and illegal immigration.

Dear, dear me.
I no longer post, due to not partaking of the output from the scum BBC. How many here are still paying a licence fee?
Anyhow, I occasionally dip in to see what the enemy are up to, but today has taken the biscuit in terms of comments, infighting and downright crap being posted.
I’m surprised the moderator doesn’t delete the vast majority of the utter shite posted with hardly anything devoted to the aims of the site.
That is all.

Kyiv City Ballet gears up for York performance
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-york-north-yorkshire-61798231
“Dancers from a Ukrainian ballet company stranded outside the country fear they may never return home, the troupe’s director has said.
Kyiv City Ballet was in France when Russia invaded and has been unable to go back to the country since.
They are currently in York, where they are staying for free ahead of a one-off UK show at the city’s Theatre Royal.”
BBC as usual incapable of asking the obvious question: why can’t they go home?
Are they scared of being conscripted? If so state that, it’s supposed to be a news outlet.
“Hotels, businesses and travel companies worked together to feed, house and water the company for free.”
It’s a wonder there’s any hotel rooms left in Britain for normal guests..
From Twitter. The Rwanda fiasco will end like this. Buses stopped.
Note that the BBC include the word ‘controversial’ with every mention of the policy.

Local ITV news
Item PR for the CCS projects
The spokes person made magical claims
Now .. “5 out of 10 women are having difficulty in buying period products”
FFS don’t gaslight me. VAT was scrapped and the Pound Shop sells them
“This is evidence that The Cost of Living Crisis more affects women” .. BS
BBC types will be crying into their Chardonnay tonight and England win a Cricket match with nobody taking the knee except when sweeping the ball to the boundary.
Not sure how they are going to spin (pun unintended) this to make it about some preferred agenda.
monday’s bbc local news
– Dumb item about a woman who has a fear of needles and has finally had her first covid
–
Item : “It’s claimed that in Hull there aren’t enough hairdressers who are trained to cut black people’s hair,
people are having to travel as far as Leeds london even to get their hair cut”
.. Presenter “wow that’s hard to believe”
featured guy who said it should be mandatory to do the course where you learn to cut black people’s hair yeah
two and a half minute item
presenter “something I never even thought about why should I ?”
Item : “2 Ukrainian dancers have held their dance class in Louth “.
that’s the same story ITV carried yesterday
.. they never mentioned that one guy why seems to be Vietnamese.
Item : Ukrainian refugees a 17 year old has arrived after 10 week wait for a visa
“I have left my parents and 8-year old sister behind in the Ukraine”
“my parents stayed because they are doctors”
Item : retro Italian singing group in Withernsea.
The cost of living crisis of a nice long distance barnet surely needs its own editor?
Our family continues to use an Aldi buzz trimmer that over the years has likely rendered each cut in the pennies.
