    Belfield has just put a trailer for the 9pm court transcript show

    #1 Snowflake vine said trolls bother him yet he chose to follow anti-Belfield trolls with vile names
    #2 Team Vine had introduced a short video claiming to prove that AB wished Vine died of Covid
    ..AB demonstrated that Team Vine created it by editing together 4 separate long AB videos and had had background music added, not to make it seem to be the same video.

          There was a time when you could pretty much rely on an astute life aware judge to separate the reality from the bullshit. However this has now long gone and our judiciary are increasingly infected by the new wave of emotional dribblers who would rather judge on perceived social positioning rather than fact.

          It’s heading towards a bleak world where truth is lies and lies are truth as Orwell predicted right into the very fabric of our courts of justice.

          The danger is, as in Japan and Sri Lanka, Joe Public, observing stupid legal stitch ups, decides that the only way to right wrongs is to go out and just do it themselves by whatever means they have.

      Poor old Esther! She only liked Margaret Thatcher because the great Prime MInister at the time invited her to No 10 to kick off Childline, which was great for the BBC’s inflated egos at the time!

      Wonder what happened to that lot, or are all the Telford stories fake news?

      Robin Aitkin and Jenny Bond seemed to be from different planets – she came off worst of course, because she incredulously said that she never knew the lefty politics of the BBC, and had never been told what to say!

      Amazing…

    US Inflation rate (CP Lie) announcede at 9.1% the highest in 40 years, and the inevitable consequence of Socialism being allowed to run riot.

    Now the Fed will almost certainly raise interest rates by at least .75% or even a full 1% Whilst our own dithering incompetent governor of the BoE wonders if he should go to a quarter of one percent.

    The UK is currently at 1.25% The Eurozone at zero percent and the USA after the Feds rise most likely at 2.5% or even higher.

    This will push the cost of all commodity items traded in the Dollar even higher, making inflation even worse! Some very very hard times ahead with the fantasy landers in our current government.

    OOPs…..

    The BBC has broadcast a documentary about Mo Farrah and apparently it contains ‘demonstrable falsehoods’ that the BBC could quite easily have noticed…but didn’t.

    I haven’t seen the programme but I can quite believe that Simon Webb is right and Mo Farrah, and the BBC, are pulling the wool over our eyes…..and there’s lots more truths to be revealed.

    Perhaps Mo, or whatever he calls himself now, should have kept quiet…..or is he trying to reinvent himself now that the running career is basically over? Is the BBC grooming another Lenny Henry? I just might leave the country!

      BBC News
      BBC One, 4 June 2022, 10.30pm

      We reported that the acclaimed British sculptor Sir Antony Gormley is to become a German citizen. We said he was giving up his British passport because of the UK’s decision to leave the European Union and that he had described the move as embarrassing and had plans for new sculptures that would reflect his view.

      In fact Sir Antony Gormley is not giving up his British nationality and has asked us to make clear the circumstances behind his application for a German passport.

      Sir Antony holds dual nationality as a result of having a German mother and has decided to apply for a German passport, which he will hold alongside his British one.

      In a statement he says he remains a proud British citizen and is grateful for the extraordinary support he has received from so many people and institutions across the UK but he is also keen to retain his links with and continue to show his work in Europe.

      We apologise for the mistake.

    So the scandal here according to Biden and the BBC – is that she can’t have an abortion.

    Not that she was raped – aged 9 – by an illegal Guatemalan immigrant.

    Like I have said many times : the Left don’t care one bit about any victims unless their story can be twisted to suit a current agenda. They are the worst of hypocrites.

    Biden said “Imagine being that little girl!”. What a truly bizarre thing to say.

        I often wonder with all migrants and their offspring describing themselves as ‘British ‘whatever’, whether anyone who is white born in Britain and now lives in India/Pakistan, whether they refer to themselves as Pakistani British !

        Because its endemic with these communities to keep their heritage. So perhaps because I was conceived in Yorkshire and born in Kent, should I call myself a Yorkshire girl of Kent ?

        It never happens with western migrants here, but I do find it irritating when I hear it.

    Do we really believe the Tory leadership race matters?

    We’ll borrow a line from today’s Sun: Hot and can’t be bothered

    This story is of course: Union chiefs yesterday called for all workers to down tools at 30C

    As echoed by our BBC – in that quizzical interrogatory mode they sometimes employ: Heatwave: When is it too hot to work?

    Well, the likes of Rishi Sunak set the example that the State could well afford to gift us full pay, the fit and healthy, for months and years, as we stayed at home to avoid minor health risks.

    And of course a State subsidiary quago-like organ of uncertain accountability The Met Office is there both ready and willing to go off alarming: The Met Office has extended its extreme heat weather warning for England and Wales until Tuesday, which means there’s a risk of serious illness or death. (BBC)

    Warning over water consumption as Met Office forecasts ‘extreme heat’ (Telegraph) – my memory extends to the long hot summer of 1976 and the sort of jokes we had then about how Irish scientists had solved the water shortage – they were diluting it.

    The media catches the wave of increasing medicalisation of our lives: Health. Migraine: science shows it’s a disability, not a headache (left-leaning ‘i’ newspaper) – science shows, does it…? Well say no more.

    Meanwhile, science really ought to come up with a new definition for the word vaccine: Covid jab 66% less effective at stopping infection but still easing symptoms (‘i’) – just another drug then?

    The corporate giveaway advertising sheet the Metro claims on its masthead to be: The world’s most popular free newspaper – doesn’t that just mean they print more copies and it gets thrust into more peoples’ hands?

    Get your daily showbiz fiz – insists the Metro feature as we learn this morning about: Cruise Beckham. Time to Netflix and chill as David lands documentary show – did I say corporate giveaway advertising sheet?

    There’s a potential new career path beckening perhaps for our gobby former footie star getting heat in the Telegraph today: Michael Deacon. My advice to BBC: dump Gary Lineker

    To matters of serious import – the FT admits the left-led leader of the western world has major economic woes ahead: US inflation piles pressure on Fed for big rate increase – they do say that when America sneezes, the world catches a cold. – let’s rephrase that for our times .. when China sneezes, America panics over Covid, the world economy is locked down.

    The Telegraph notices the left-led US has committed major foreign policy blunders: Con Coughlin. Biden has messed up the Middle East.

    Add to that Putin has now conquered a big chunk of Ukraine and the west is for some reason committed to a new proxy forever-war and self-harming economic sanctions.

    Russia has occupied Ukraine and China eyes Taiwan – and there’s not a dang thing we can do about it…

    One recalls the classic James Dean movie Giant (1956 – coincidentally the year the US put the final nail in the coffin of their former ally thereafter client and junior partner Britain’s independent world influence – when it left us up the creek without a paddle over the Suez canal crisis) I digress. James Dean was in the character of Jet Rink and his memorable line as he strikes oil and taunts his rivals:

    It’s here, and there ain’t a dang thing you gonna do about it! My well came in big, so big, Bick and there’s more down there and there’s bigger wells. I’m rich, Bick. I’m a rich ‘un. I’m a rich boy. Me, I’m gonna have more money than you ever thought you could have – you and all the rest of you stinkin’ sons of… Benedicts!

    Fast forward two decades…

    One further recalls the agit-prop proto-rap funk-jazz of Gil Scott-Heron’s track “B” Movie of 1981 – complaining about Ronald Reagan but also giving this commentator – coincidentally a neophyte of an economics student at the time, a rather concise lesson in basic economics:

    What has happened is that in the last 20 years, America has changed from a producer to a consumer
    And all consumers know that when the producer names the tune, the consumer has got to dance
    That’s the way it is
    We used to be a producer – very inflexible at that, and now we are consumers and, finding it difficult to understand
    Natural resources and minerals will change your world
    The Arabs used to be in the 3rd World
    They have bought the 2nd World and put a firm down payment on the 1st one
    Controlling your resources will control your world
    This country has been surprised by the way the world looks now
    They don’t know if they want to be Matt Dillon or Bob Dylan
    They don’t know if they want to be diplomats or continue the same policy – of nuclear nightmare diplomacy

    Do you notice how the BBC loves child ‘modern slavery ‘? It’s almost as popular as disfiguring ethnic lady parts . On and on about a Somalian liar cum runner – they even had Betty butler – sloss – who calls herself a baroness – demonstrating that she Has No Idea About The Real World – on that Today programme singing the praises of the Somalian runner with a dodgy British passport …..

    ….and yet – modern slavery ? BBC love it – paki child rape gangs with 1000s of victims ? Don’t go there – Tommy Robinson ? Don’t go there ….was he right ? Yes . Is this acknowledged by anyone ? No .

      And although the programme ‘breaks ground ‘ about the plight and experience of victims and next of kin – the barking dogs made the thing sound like channel 5 daytime TV . Which was a shame …

      …at least – because it was prerecorded – it didn’t have the ‘technical issues ‘ that regularly affects all GBNews programmes .

    Until GB News, and in particular Mark Steyn , came along I don’t think that I had heard of WEF or Klaus Schwab. But judging by by Klaus’s claims on video he and his acolytes seem to rule the West.
    So much so that I would very much like the Tory leadership candidates to be investigated and forced to comment on their association with WEF. Any candidate who has an association should be ruled out.
    After all we didn’t fight hard to escape from the EU only to led by a paid up member of the WEF.
    I think that a full list of all leading politicians in a. Western countries with any link to the WEF would make interesting reading. I suspect that we would be shocked at the extent of the numbers who are members.

    The Head of the BBC’s Executive Complaints Unit (ECU) has made a ruling on the article and the headline has now been changed to ‘The lesbians who feel pressured to have sex and relationships with trans women’ in light of the finding.

    The ECU also ruled that the original article did not go far enough to make clear to readers a survey’s “lack of statistical validity.” The article has been amended to reflect this.

    You can find the ECU’s ruling here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/contact/ecu/newsonlineoctober2021

    …..

    Mo Farah is facing fresh allegations that he repeatedly denied receiving a controversial supplement via injection to United States Anti-Doping Agency (Usada) officials ahead of the 2014 London Marathon, only to then confirm minutes later that he did.

    Only the BBC would pay her to do such a woke job . It was a long 30 minutes . Poor – muddled – and didn’t tell me anything … it didn’t touch on the huge population increase – the huge number of foreigners – particularly those who don’t speak Dee eengleesh – the internet – mobile phones recording everything ….

    I see two more people have been arrested by Burnhams Gestapo over communications sent to the special one – Fick Ange.

    Odd because plenty of public figures receive hate mail, and some of which are very threatening indeed, and no arrests are ever made. In the case of people the state views as an enemy such as “whose real name is” even the issuing of Osman notices” has never ever resulted in a single arrest let alone a prosecution.

    But Fick Ange is the special one and Burham has ordered she must never ever be subjected to even a single email which calls into question her competence let alone is even mildly abusive.

    It will be interesting to see just how mild the latest batch of so called malicious communications really are.

          Do you really think Genghis Khan and his armies killed 10% of the world population (some 40 million people)?

          What about Timur? https://www.warhistoryonline.com/medieval/tamerlane-middle-east.html

          Honestly, it’s totally unbelievable, if they seriously killed that many people, there would have been large parts of Asia almost entirely depopulated for centuries after, even today. Although there was probably a kernel of truth in such accounts, clearly a lot of it was medieval propaganda.

          As a rule of thumb, when reading large medieval numbers (army sizes, casualties, massacres, plague victims, the population of cities etc…) you can take at least two zeroes off, if not three, or four. ‘Millions’ become far more plausible 10,000s in many cases. Otherwise, you have completely impossible figures that simply don’t add up with what we know about geographical, archaeological, and historical realities.

          Then there are the unanswered questions, like why would you want to kill so many people? To inspire terror? You can do that by killing far less, and the rest could be made to labour for you. Then, how do you physically kill so many people? Recall this is before machine guns, poison gas, etc… every one of those people would have to be killed with a sword, or a knife, or a bow, and you know… you can only feed so many soldiers, and arms get tired after a while. Also, how do you stop the others running away, while you’re killing their friends and family, stopping for a teabreak, to have a nap etc…?

          It’s a bit like the numbers of people involved in ‘large crowds’ and ‘huge protests’, which even modern ‘experts’ can’t agree on, often differing by as much as a factor of 10, or more. You can pretty much claim whatever you want… a large crowd of people can be ‘hundreds’, ‘thousands’, ‘tens of thousands’… to those there, in the middle of them, it’s hard to tell, and some aren’t above twisting the truth to suit their own ends… are they?

          What I find amusing is that modern ‘experts’ take such clearly inflated numbers and ‘propagandized’ historical accounts as factual history and then expect to be taken seriously.

          Accounts about the Atlantic slave trade being a case in point.

    Just watched the Panorama film on the SAS ‘Death Squads’….that’s an hour I’ll never get back.

    What a waste of time….circumstantial evidence, assumptions, supposition, speculation treated as fact and irrelevant commentators and unproven ‘witness’ accounts…including from likely Taliban members and families looking for a big payout….however we are told there is ‘overwhelming evidence that these murders occurred.’

    The BBC started out stating it all as fact…

    ’Tonight…the SAS death squads that arrived in the night…we reveal secret killings by British special forces…and the cover up by the men in charge.’

    So pretty clear…this is reporting murders by British SF that actually happened.
    It is, an Aussie says, ‘Clearly an orchestrated campaign of murder.’

    Most of the film is of Aussie SAS and most of the voices are Aussie…the BBC asserts this is OK because the Brits worked with the Aussies and ’We’ve been told the British did what the Australians did.’ Though of course actual evidence of that seems thin on the ground. It’s a bit like the BBC stating that US cops murder black people[they don’t] and thus British police must do the same.

    Their British sources refused to be identified and weren’t actually anywhere near the frontline….in fact it seems they were back in the Hereford HQ from the sounds of things.

    Ah…but…the BBC does have actual witnesses…People here say…’….Afghan family members of those killed…not renowned as reliable witnesses…and probably out for a big payout….and many look distinctly Talibanish….odd how the BBC will believe those who might be expected to be spinning a tale but not our own soldiers.

    Apparently those who died had their hands tied and were unarmed…said the ‘witnesses’….but they weren’t actually in the room when they were shot….purely their own story.

    The BBC’s proof that the SAS account is dodgy…..any prisoner shouldn’t have been able to reach a weapon and grenades aren’t a weapon the Taliban use…..really?

    OIP.YNERDNhGlpnLg0ffe-bb4gHaEp?pid=ImgDet&rs=1

    Also, apparently, if you’re ‘searched and detained’ you’d have no chance to grab a weapon…but what if they’re brought over to facilitate the house search? One….it’s cultural…Brits are not allowed to touch some personal items in houses…two they may expect boobytraps…hence get the owner to open things up.

    Also children were mauled by military search dogs…says Afghan doctor….but were they? If British dogs had done that the kids would have almost certainly been taken to Brit military medical centre and not left…two…plenty of big dogs in Afghan roaming around that kids terrorise….any chance one bit back? The BBC just asserts it was a military dog with no proof at all.

    More ‘proof’…bullet holes in wall at low level…hmm…could have been put there by anyone in the last ten years…and they were pretty big holes especially if from 5.56 rounds. Maybe the Taliban were a bit over-enthusiastic with the pick…or used 7.62 AKs.

    The BBC claims the SAS planted weapons to justify killings….but on the other hand when there were 8 killed and only 4 weapons found this also was evidence of ‘murder’….though circumstances might explain…a night raid, in the dark, in enclosed spaces and entering a room where 8 males were resident…and who no doubt would have leapt up at the first sound of entry by the team. You tell me how you would deal with that if some were armed and maybe shooting or looking as if they are about to…in a dark room.

    Room clearance is highly dangerous and for a journalist to sit there and spout off in complete safety and comfort with little experience of the real thing and the dangers involved is uniquely dumb and clearly ill-informed nonsense….knowing nonsense…he talks as if the ‘raids’ were low intensity, low threat efforts…walk in, round a few people up, all very compliant, and have a quick rummage through the rooms and then a few handshakes and Praise be to Allahs’ and it’s all over….apart from the murders.
    The BBC completely fails to portray the reality of a raid and the dangers involved….because they want to make you think the SAS were acting in cold blood and clinically executed people out of hand.

    The family said the people were killed lying down…hence those huge ‘bullet’ holes low down in the wall….hmmm…the SAS entered by blowing the gate off the compound wall….and the ‘victims’ were still peacefully asleep on the floor in their room?
    And who were these men packed into the rooms…..the BBC showed photos….lol….a rogue’s gallery you can guarantee were Taliban. Indeed the old man admitted they may have been and definitely a couple were…but he had no idea at the time!

    The BBC kept referring to memos about suggestions that such killings were happening….but this was suggestion and inference….it was ‘implied’ we were told….those at the top of the SAS were worried, we are told, about these ‘executions…..but there were inquiries and no substantial evidence was found.

    And that’s about it apart from one Royal Marine Colonel whom the BBC got to say the right thing…if it’s all true it’s terrible and we need an inquiry…but he has no evidence and he was only wheeled in to give some weight and credence to the BBC’s pretty thin story and their own final demand…we must have an inquiry…a big one!

      Before BBC THREE and Ru Paul ….

      Bacha bāzī (Persian: بچه بازی, lit. “boy play”;[1] from بچه bacheh, “boy”, and بازی bazi “play, game”) is a slang term in some parts of Afghanistan and Pakistan[2][3] for a custom in Afghanistan involving child sexual abuse by older men of young adolescent males or boys, called dancing boys, often involving sexual slavery and child prostitution.[4] In the 21st century, bacha bazi is practiced in various parts of Afghanistan and Northwestern Pakistan.[5][6][3] Force and coercion are common, and security officials state they are unable to end such practices and that many of the men involved in bacha bazi are powerful and well-armed warlords.[7][8][9]

      During the Afghan Civil War (1996–2001), bacha bazi carried the death penalty under Taliban law.[10] Under the post-Taliban government, the practice of dancing boys was illegal under Afghan law, but the laws were seldom enforced against powerful offenders, and police had reportedly been complicit in related crimes.[11][12] Despite international concern and its illegality, the practice continued under the post-Taliban government.[13][14]

      A controversy arose after allegations surfaced that U.S. government forces in Afghanistan after the invasion of the country deliberately ignored bacha bazi.[15] The U.S. military responded by claiming the abuse was largely the responsibility of the “local Afghan government”.[16]

      Pug:

      Thanks for watching that, so I didn’t have to.

      I can’t see why anyone would think the SAS would conduct night raids just to kill random Afghans. They know the value of “hearts and minds” in counter-insurgency warfare. Atrocities are counter productive. The SAS are professional soldiers, they know this.

      A moment’s thought should tell you that seeking to capture Taliban suspects in the middle of the night is not like trying to arrest a person in Britain. It was a war zone, they had been told the people they needed to capture, but any sort of resistance would be met with immediate ultimate force. No tasers, no “you have the right to remain silent…”.

      It would not surprise if, sadly, some innocent people were caught up in this and killed. Maybe. But the idea that the SAS go out at night, risk their lives, and kill Afghans for fun is ridiculous.

      What the BBC has achieved is to undermine the reputation of the British army, and ensure that if in the future a British soldier is captured by islamic terrorists, he will be murdered by them. For the BBC, that’s a job well done.

        Legal definition of genocide
        ————————————-
        Genocide is defined in Article 2 of the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide (1948) as “any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part1

        ; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; [and]

        forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.”
