Trivia – but important to many . The BBC has decided to stop doing the football results on Saturday evenings – a ‘tradition ‘ going back to the 1950s . A ritual for many – but something too big for the schedule ‘according to BBC sport . For those of us looking for any way to diminish and destroy the Far Left Anti British BBC – it is good news . Keep up that self destruction please BBC….

Apologies, I noticed there was the ‘leave a comment’ and I couldn’t miss the opportunity.
I cannot remember when I last watched anything on the BBC bar some local news. However as my posts on the last thread indicate, seriously every time I switch on Radio 4, within 2 minutes I have a comment for here and I switch off or go to GBNews on the car radio.
Loire Valley: Intense European heatwave parches France’s ‘garden’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-62486386
Not our concern !
Why should we trouble ourselves with French problems ? They continue to dump illegals and Albanians on our shores and rob us of millions at the same time.
They are untrustworthy allies , we left the EU in 2016 and they do their best to punish us .
We need a government with ‘Bottle’ to stand up to them, which the Tories are definitely not .
Any Tory voters on this site that disagree with me ?
Over to you maxincony……………
Could be a vinatge year for the ‘beau jolly’, taffman. 😉
Just checking.
The head of propaganda with no worldly experience .
She is a joke !
Repeating this, but from the pre-print blurb of Spring’s new book:
— “Why do otherwise intelligent people believe that COVID vaccines contain microscopic computer chips? How did the idea that the US election was rigged become mainstream? Is Westminster being run by a shadowy collective of ‘deep-state’ operatives? […] In this gripping book, she takes the reader down the rabbit hole to explore why falsehoods spread and why so many are drawn into their net…”
1) A Swedish study has found that the mRNA in the Pfizer vaxx does indeed transcribe into DNA in cells (we were told that couldn’t happen)
2) 2000 Mules has shown evidence the US election was rigged
3) the PM specifically called out the deep state a few weeks ago

Who… would buy it?
Or is a bestseller guaranteed by a 20k purchase from W1A.
TM, “2) 2000 Mules has shown evidence the US election was rigged”
Not only that, Trump was hated by most of the meejah in the US (and here!); a new virus suddenly arises in China (no friend of Trump after his very successful far East diplomacy tour) and creates a world Pandemic that leads to Lockdowns and the needs for postal voting in the US Presidential Election a year later.
Oh, purely a concidence!
Yeagher, roigghh’! Brings out the Norfolk sceptic in me (and I’m not even from Norfolk) or as Brenda in Bristol might say: “Pull th’ oetherrh one, iss goh bells on, lurve.”
Do you think little Marianna understands how virologists isolate viruses and prove they cause disease? Do you think she has ever read a scientific paper in her life and understood what they are saying? She is a clown.
Online disinformation? She only need walk down the corridor to find the source of that!

Disgraceful , it should have never been considered .
Where next will the Tories put them, in 4 Star hotels or Rwanda ?
This Tory Government is a disgrace to the people of Great Britain.
Remember the time the EU fanatics , Gramscians and Thanatos dismissed this country as a “windy rainswept island off the coast of Europe ? I bet they`re not so sneering about our climate now .
Not BBC but Ch4 — “The Undeclared War” ticks more boxes than anything I’ve seen in a long time.
Saara’s won a government internship in cyber-intelligence. She’s young and serious and muslim. 12 mins in, and an employee’s already apologised for GCHQ being “hideously male, pale and stale.” Her white male colleagues are surly and disinterested in aiding her fast-track into cyber stardom. Her only office friend is the young, feisty american black woman — who’s already clashed with the white men for sticking to fuddy-duddy GCHQ protocol.
Saara’s boyfriend is a wet behind the ears teacher & climate change activist. We can tell he’s out of his depth with the smart, intense, troubled muslim woman. He won’t understand her internal conflicts — the friction between fulfilling traditional familial roles and showing up the stupid white men in GCHQ on a daily basis. We understand though, because we’re forced to.
She’s so smart and muslim she spots something in the code her colleagues missed, earning her a seat at a COBRA meeting, where she’s singled out for praise in front of the PM and gets a round of applause from all gathered. Not bad going for your first week (usual intern stuff like remembering where the loos are doesn’t seem to apply).
Saara eats only an apple for lunch because the canteen doesn’t cater for muslims. Mark Rylance plays a codebreaking boffin who brings her a meat-free sandwich. But we see him stumble when trying to articulate his halal gesture, because old white men are unnerved by ‘otherness’. If they’re not fumbling around with code like socially awkward farmhands, they’re bamboozled by cultural difference.
That’s mostly it. Oh yes, after a non-muslim beer one night Saara ends up in a kiss with american black female chum, who’s a lesbian.
I’m not sure I’ve got the will to see how it ends.
So she’s a “Mary Sue,” a term coined in Star Trek fandom in the 70s to describe a character who is to all intents and purposes flawless: The youngest girl ever to graduate from Star Fleet Academy (Star Trek fan fiction was nearly always written by females), excels at all subjects from anthropology to zoology, is universally admired, has one of the Trek “Big Three” (Kirk, Spock, McCoy) fall in love with her, usually dies saving the Enterprise at the end and is mourned by the whole crew.
Such characters are pretty commonplace these days, usually to demonstrate the superiority of a particular demographic. The only modification seems to be that they often exchange “admiration” for “victimhood.” Examples: Rey in Star Wars, Michael Burnham in Star Trek: Discovery (both girls). Male versions are known as Marty Stu or Gary Stu.
The first BBC programme I noticed where men were hopeless and had to be rescued by women was the Lord Lynley Investigates. Needless to say the aristocratic white male and stale Lord frequently got in a pickle, or was unable to solve the crime. His small, working class female sidekick Havers was there to rescue him and find the culprit. All we were short of was Havers being played by a short black trans. The message was being laid on with a trowel. From realising the message to stopping watching the series was short. I guess as the message becomes more blatant, it is why BBC viewing figures continue to drop.
It sounds like VIZ could do a really good spoof job on this TM.!
Didn’t they have Millie Tant and The Modern Parents, two parodies which frighteningly have become true.
Not as good as Postman Plod ( the miserable sod) in my opinion.
My favourite was Kappa Slapper, until the company stopped them using their name. And the Thieving Gypsy Bastards were good, until the PC mob stopped that too. Viz isn’t quite as edgy as they like to make out.
I suspect we’re all a mix of Sid the Sexist and Terry F**kwitt in the eyes of the media elite.
Saara in The Undeclared War needs to go back to drama school. Acting was beyond rubbish. If she was the best young and Muslim actress they could find then it doesn’t say much for the rest who auditioned for the role.
Terminal – same as you, watched 1& 2 but it was so contrived woke bull I gave up.
“Will an FBI ‘raid’ supercharge Trump?”
He is on the way back! Good for the USA and good for GB.
Taffy,
We know that there are many powerful Dems and RINOs who have participated in highly illegal anti Trump conspiracies over the past six years . If Trump becomes President in 2024 he will make 100% sure that he chooses American patriots who support his MAGA agenda to fill all key positions and then go after the illegal conspirators with everything that he has got. Many of the conspirators won’t escape jail a second time round.
So they have a very great deal to loose and it wouldn’t surprise me at all that if they can’t find a way to bar Trump from running, they resort to direct physical action against him.
But even if they can stop Trump , De Santis looks almost as good at this point. We don’t yet know if the swamp can force him to tone down his rhetoric and moderate his agenda , like have done with every other Republican except Trump. But so far so good.
November looks increasingly like a Red wave and if the Republicans take both Houses the investigations will start and the heat on the conspirators will increase . They will be forced to take action next year.
The Dems have researched the whole list of reasons why anyone in the US cannot legally run for president and are now desperately trying each one. They know that failure means carnage!
If Donald Trump is back in the WH, he will kill the boondongle Climate Change scam, designed to destroy the West and make us poor and hungry.
And if he is smart this time round, he will leave his daughter and son in law out – NY libs, and get some hard men – Gen Flyn, Steve Bannon, instead of firing them.
No, he won’t. He backed the lockdowns and the complete destruction of the US economy and heavily promoted the dangerous gene therapy. He is part of the system.
“EMPICS
Image caption,
The majority of newspapers lead with the worsening cost of living crisis. The Metro carries the stark warning issued by consumer expert Martin Lewis that the rapidly rising cost of energy will be “deadly” for some people struggling financially. The paper says Mr Lewis demanded the “zombie government” of Boris Johnson respond to the spiralling cost of living now, but it also notes the prime minister has confirmed he “will not intervene” before his successor is chosen in September.”
Not sure what an ’empic’ is, but no doubt a small beeboid will know…
Wow, our national broadcaster really does have its finger on the pulse, doesn’t it!
I’m pretty sure that £159.00 in the pockets of the population would be well appreciated during the ‘crisis’…

We watched “13 Lives” on Amazon Prime last night. It’s
the true story of the 12 boys and their football
coach who get caught deep down in a cave in Thailand
in terrible floods.
The director is Ron Howard who gave us such films as Apollo 13.and in my opinion it’s as dramatic and thrilling as Apollo 13 and other Howard films. However I doubt even in time it will
ever be shown on BBC TV. It isn’t “inclusive” enough
for the BBC.
I reiterate it’s a true story . So most of the cast are Thai. BUT
is that inclusive enough for the BBC? I doubt it. You see the
cave underwater divers who find the boys in the depths of
the caves are all “whities” from England. So it’s like the England’s
ladies football team again. The divers are NOT diverse, so far as
the BBC are concerned . If it was a BBC film I expect somebody with the default ethnicity for
the BBC,
would of been the chief diver. The stars we have are
Viggo Mortensen, Colin Farrel and Joel Edgerton playing
the lead roles as the divers. And worse still they don’t appear
to have mixed race marriages. This great film has to be a
no-no for the BBC for all time. I won’t give you any more
spoilers . But if you can, watch this great film.
I rarely watch any of the terrestrial channels. I do watch a lot of Spanish dramas on Netflix – the word diversity is generally not in their dictionary, unless African characters are needed for the story. Currently binge watching Unauthorised Living, like a page turner I can’t put down.

Thank you very much – I’ve got Amazon prime but more or less gave on their dumbed down woke kidult films … will watch …
By the way – if you have prime they are putting the price up soon I think so renew at the old price might be an idea …. Depending on resources / priorities of course …
Dump the TVL dds …
The price rise is September but the last date to fix at full year 2022 is 2359 14 August – according to the rev Martin Lewis on the excellent free website ….
Yes Apollo 13 movie is far more convincing than the original fake voyage isn’t it? If you think about what they are proposing for one minute you will realise how farcical it is. They claim the skin of the command module was millimeters thick and they wore little protective clothing while leaving Earth’s atmosphere. Really? Can you imagine flying in to a zero gravity environment with no atmosphere and surviving the solar and cosmic radiation that is bombarding you? Take a look at pictures of the lunar module sometime. There is no way anyone went into space stuck inside that thing. And where are those wonderful cameras that can withstand going from -180 degrees C to 180 degrees C in seconds but still work!

Anyone visiting our, “Worlds Most Trusted Broadcaster” World Service between 0256 and the end of the 0300 News broadcast would be forgiven for thinking of the BBC representing, the ‘Black Broadcasting Corporation’ only. Black, black, black and even more black. They are obsessed with blackness. Now with the expectation of that Marxist propaganda continuously filling the air waves to the extent of mania, I wonder how many foreigners now seeking important World News, simply turn off or, don’t turn on.

One wonders, for a brief fleeting moment, what it might be about the corporate freebie advertiser The Metro that so delights BBC press pickers this morning?
Then one reads the giveaway’s screamer headline: Wake up zombies! – perfect… this is: Consumer champ Martin Lewis – helpfully drumming home the Labour opposition talking point: Labour attacks ‘zombie government’ as Boris Johnson returns from holiday (Guardian online, Sunday)
I’ve seen a couple of their movies and the last thing you want to do with zombies is to wake them up.
BBC online press review choice for top spot errs away from the usual lefty press suspects – perhaps, perforce – because their headlines today go rather soft on the Tories: Truss softens on ‘handouts’ for cost of living (‘i’); Johnson: new PM ‘certain’ to bail out households over cost of living (Guardian); New powers to override City regulators win Truss’s backing (FT) – the full on out and proud Labour-supporting Daily Mirror goes with the Ryan Giggs trial – more of that later…
There is a certain logic – or so one supposes – in the corporate advertiser Metro’s editorial stance shifting blame for the rising cost of living away from the big corporates and onto government. It’s a toss up which is more to blame… Lockdowns, lack of sensible future energy planning policy, corporate profiteering, duff foreign policy… the big corporates happily collaborated with Lockdowns and despite alarmist campaigners’ accusations big oil is now very much in the tank for expensive so-called green energy – so long as it’s heavily subsidised. Put government and their crony corporations in a sack and I don’t know who I’d pull out first.
I’ve yet to meet an actaul fan of tennis star Serena Williams – one can however respect her ability in her chosen sport. The media seem to like her. She’s all over the newspaper frontpages this morning. Guardian – cover girl, Financial Times – cover girl, The Times – cover girl (all tennis action shots), Daily Telegraph – cover girl, in glamour pose dressed in long white frock.
‘Countdown has begun’ on Williams retirment (Guardian)
Don’t run away with the notion that this will be the last the media will have to tell us about their Serena: I’m evolving, not retiring (‘i’)
The last time the Daily Express dipped the Ukrainian flag at their masthead was when the Lionesses won the football and the cross of St George was raised in its stead – despite Emily Thornberry. Today they run down the blue and yellow and raise the old red white and blue Union flag for Liz – no, not our Liz the Second… this is Liz Truss in whom we’re supposed to trust: In Liz we trust – Leo McKinstry writes the Express leader comment: Liz Truss is the right choice for Britain – in a rather brash immodest splash the Express claims: In a dramatic announcement that could help seal her victory in the Tory leadership battle this paper today declares its support for her bid to become out next Prime Minister – her best attributes are apparently nothing to do with policy or conservatism but rather her: strong hand and; cool head – as I recall Rishi had both when he shovelled borrowed cash at every problem, as though he were Jeremy Corbyn’s chancellor.
Huge relief all round… Matt is back and on form in the Telegraph. He sketches two Eskimos chatting outside their igloo: “Apparently, the British have 27 different swear words for their energy bills”
Inflation, ladies and gentlemen, is an age old deliberate government policy designed to whittle away State-incurred debt by stealthily taxing the population by the back door.

I noticed this report about the recent Jurassic Coast cliff collapse in Dorset. Of course it reported as due to the hot weather and climate change.
https://uk.yahoo.com/news/dramatic-moment-cliff-collapses-onto-095545432.html
Anyway the last time it collapsed in April 2021 it was reported that the cause was the extreme rainfall and climate change.
Other reports say that the cliffs just collapse naturally…
They’re always collapsing – that’s why it’s such good fossil hunting territory, that’s why Mary Anning (the famous ‘lesbian scientist’ with her own statue in Lyme) was so successful at discovering fossils there, that’s why it’s known as the ‘Jurassic Coast’.
I’ve witnessed a cliff slide more dramatic than that whilst rockpooling in Lyme Bay, it’s a bit unsettling, but the locals laugh if you tell them it’s ‘worrying’, and say it’s a ‘daily occurrence, especially in the winter’. Trying to recall what the weather was like when I saw it happen, think it was autumn (best time for rockpools), and probably quite cool and overcast.

The octogenarian drunk is clearly confusing Taiwan with Red China, although it’s possible they merge into one and the same thing after her liquid breakfast. According to the Freedom House survey she references, where a higher number is better, Taiwan scores 94/100 (comparable to Britain, which scores 93/100), whereas Red China scores 9/100, placing it between Cuba (12/100) and Somalia (7/100).
This would seem to be one subject where she doesn’t have “insider knowledge”.

So here’s my take on the flood of illegal immigrants.
As an active sailor I understand maritime Law and practicalities of dealing with these boats. It’s illegal to leave people in distress at Sea in any event and anyway, whatever one’s views, I don’t think anyone normal could leave people to die. One idea can be dismissed immediately, could the boats be towed back to France? No. France wouldn’t allow it and more importantly the people in the boats will jump overboard meaning they will have to be picked up anyway. So what can be done? First, anyone without documents should be treated as illegal with no legal recourse, as we all know they throw away their phones and documents if intercepted. The idea of housing them in hotels has to stop. Dare I say it, secure concentration camps should be built in a remote location. The idea of using ships is a good one if they are then used to transport them elsewhere. We need to tackle France and the EU head on. Trade partners? Partners who stab us in the back, front and everywhere else.
Flotsam – yousofty – but I’m not normal … breed sharks …buy big wave machines …
…end that long tradition of Blighty being a mug …built a wall …
A wall of fire . . for “The invasion that never came.”
Under the SOLAS regulations you can legally leave these people in distress if you think saving them would imperil you .
So if they have guns or look threatening then they can be left alone .
First line of defence — dont have boats like the Border Farce or Royal Navy to the area .
I still think that breadknives and mobile phones funded by shredded inflatables bounties would be both fun and effective.
The context is that I’m talking about our rescue boats, not pleasure craft. Under the rules they have to save them. I have to say that although I’m extremely angry with this influx I would feel morally obliged to save people wherever they are from.
I had thought about designing a rubber boat gobbler. A boat with a two part opening and closing cage designed to scoop up boat and contents and secure them.
Flotsom – I hear Texas is bussing a lot of their border illegals to Washington and New York. Perhaps we should consider sending out illegals to Glasgow where the SNP and wee Sturgeon would no doubt welcome them with open arms😂
As long as it’s just Glasgow in Scotland.
How do the Welsh commies escape your wrath?
Send them to an uninhabited Scottish Island and let them act out The Lord of the Flies.
The are options in the South Atlantic that might be a better fit?
Ascension Island is still my preference.
Send them there with their lawyers.
Do a limited food drop once every 3 months.
Then forget the food drop.
I’d bus them to Westminster. Since it seems that our politicians want them, they can have them and fund them with THEIR OWN money.
Energy Crisis?
Lord Marshall head of the CEGB foresaw the problem in 1990.
I distinctly remember him saying that Nuclear power was intrinsic to British energy security.
When power generation was privatised, Nuclear was separated from conventional power, “investors” didn’t want it. Marshall was very unhappy about this and resigned. I remember Banks and so-called investors making a windfall from cheap shares.

Yeah, I couldn’t be arsed to drill down to actual sources – but as a guide I do know about oil prices + the commmon enough bust between spot and retail – and have previously watched Centrica gruesomely manipulate gas prices in the past (SOP there).
Happy to execute messengers ‘pon occasion.
TOADY Watch #1 – did I really hear a Beeboid say that and not raise a furious shriek?
Think there was an early item on TOADY that mentioned Germany burning coal. Was I being ‘gaslighted’? There were certainly no howls of protest about the burning of fossil fuels.
I hate to say this, but it’s absolutely meaningless worse still downright misleading and it’s probably done by left wing agitators to attack private enterprise.
Cost per KWh in Dollars for easy comparison:
Germany $.341 per Kwh
UK $ .23 per KWh
Therefore the German electricity is 50% more expensive than the British.
What the chart actually shows it that energy in the UK has been incredibly cheap compared to the continent and the price rises have been forced on a highly competetive market are higher than the less competetive neighbours.
So while it’s true the UKs prices are rising faster, they started from a much much cheaper price !
Left wing agitation is undoubtedly a factor.
The intransigence and wilful foot dragging over fracking is completely and utterly inexcusable imho.
Without energy things will get ugly – and fast.
Why are “they” doing this? – and let’s be clear -this is deliberate.
tomo,
Why?
following the email instruction from the WEF.
Why vote? If to vote means that the party then in power, follows orders from out of this country, why bother. Examples? Just look at events over the past decades.
I’d hope that some small transparency and common sense might be applied – but I’m not hopeful.
I think it’s more about nut nuts wife nagging hubby on the green crap …
Thoughtful, you don’t mention that wages in Germany are 50% higher too.

Tomo – I’ve been wondering about how soon mass refusal to pay bills would kick in …. Particularly with the socialist councils expecting to get their money for the ‘social engineering ‘ projects …..
I think that once people start to miss payments on fuel bills it will spread to others like the ‘community charge ‘ – insurance – obviously – then more active criminality like shop lifting –
Good old ‘steaming ‘ – remember that one ?
Up against a lefty plod unwilling to enforce laws it doesn’t like or which might fire off the traditional riot by the coloured folk with the support of lefty politicians supporting ‘the community ‘…
And I recommend the ‘London bar ‘ for your front and back door …..
I am sort of hoping that Labour supporters will the ones refusing to pay power bills, then we can sit back and watch what happens.
Back in the 1980s (iirc) there was a “no pay” local taxes thing in northern Italy (Turin / Milan iirc) – people paid their taxes into an escrow system, transparently administered by “incorruptibles” and payments were made for an assortment of agreed things… putting a huge squeeze on the city councils.
– the Righty Christians couldn’t put their Wagner festival trips on the council and the Commies couldn’t expense Cuban beach holidays.
In short … it seemed to work applying pressure to reel in corrupt schemes and municipal self indulgence. The administrators used the interest to buy advert space to promote the scheme.
I remember it being branded as “alto reduzione” – it has been effectively memory holed.
I suggest care when speaking of withholding payments. Whoever the deep state appoint as next PM and government will very likely act tough and be selective in imposing punishment. Many people will be imprisoned or have their kids taken into care when the government get tough on non payments. But some non payers will be ignored. That is how it works.
Sounds very like the calls for the public to take direct action against the BBC. I do wish the dozey British public would wake up to the enormous damage that the BBC has done to the country,over the past three or four decades. As with so many crucial issues it’s no good waiting for the government, any government , to act , because they are all part of the liberal globalist establishment and will allow the BBC to lead the societal changes that they themselves desire.
We have to look after ourselves .Our democracy has been undermined by the establishment and we have been disenfranchised. We need to take direct action against the impositions of the liberal establishment . If we don’t want to be invaded , don’t want to forced to accept net zero, don’t want the BBC ramming its propaganda down our throats at our expense, we need to stand up to the establishment bullies.
tomo, that might be a very short-sighted solution, cutting off your own nose to spite your face. The Energy Co. that is getting a bit marginal, goes out of business, leaving hundreds in the dole queue to be supported by taxation and – possibly – also leaving HMG (a.k.a. the taxpayer) to pick up the bill for pensions from the failed company and the transfer of customers to the last man standing where your costs will then be increased.
e.g. Bulb
Again be careful. I wanted Boris gone, as far as I’m concerned he is as far Left as Wilson / Callaghan, and he has left the economy in a similar mess to what they did with no one now to clear up that mess and a Blue Labour party completely unable to put the blame where it really lies.
Many on the Left are ideologically opposed to a name, so if Karl Marx was an elected Tory they would automatically be opposed to him because of the party – not the policies.
Pug,
Just like the US, I foresee the public having to rise up – physically – to support their ‘Chosen One’ to face the communists and their conspiracies down and in the process, demonstrate which faction is boss. ‘Silent majority’ and all that. Without that show of strength, the Commies will continue to take bite size chunks out of ‘Democracy”. Now here as well.
Did the BBC bother to ask the opinion of the Florida governor or his Attorney General – *both* former Federal Prosecutors?
appears not… I wonder why?
I’m starting a rumour
The new UK PM will announce that the fracking ban will be lifted and a new pipeline from Newcastle to Hamburg will be built as a matter of urgency and it will be named “Nord Stream 3”

Will they be getting Lois Lerner out of retirement?
BiasedBBC carefully construct and using framing trickery in their NewsPR reports
12pm BBC Radio Humberside News
#1 It is outrageous that the BBC NewsPR have a rule that the word fracking must be preceded by the word “CONTROVERSIAL”
#2 * “not earthquake”, fears of tiny minor earth tremors
The newsreader then rushed into two other climate connected stories a if to hammer the message
– £11m is to be spent to reduce the risk of flooding, in South Holdernes, East Yorkshire .. funding from DEFRA *
– little biddy hedgehogs are at risk from dry weather
* the newsreader then reels off a list of villages and said they have all suffered flooding in the recent past
next “to the opposite issue where wildlife experts say that the prolonged dry is having a range of DAMAGING impacts on plants and animals in OUR area
this includes hedgehogs, dozens of which have been rescued recently have to be becoming dehydrated”
To paraphrase Bismark , one British hedgehog is worth a lot more than a hundred boat loads of Albanians, Ethiopians etc.
So in the 12pm newsPR the script cherrypicked a tiny part of Truss’s comment and amplified it but the 1pm newsPR rewrote that script
In the 1pm news the item was followed by an item about water companies and droughts
for some reason focusing on Thames Water’s hosepipe ban which i nothing to do with this region , and then rushing past Anglian Waters statement that they have plenty of water even though that IS the water company for half the region. The other half is from Yorkshire Water “where reservoirs have dropped below 50% !”
at 12pm Radio Lincolnshire mentioned something else
eg it mentioned that Truss would be suspending the green levy
I note that Radio4 brought on their pet economist to say “the green levy does not exist”
Wondering if the London polio scare is rooted in escaped Sabin bugs?
BBC BREAKING BAD BUG story
London children to be offered emergency Polio jabs
Another gift that some bastard from Africa has brought in with them. No-one mentions this though. The same as TB and monkeypox. Wait until the next Smallpox outbreak occurs, yep I know it has long been eradicated, but there’s always bioterrorism.
They are that dumb.
The Sabin attenuated Polio virus has been claimed as responsible for some outbreaks where it has apparently reverted to a more dangerous version…
That isn’t a good look for the vaccination industry …
– if you haven’t watched it – it’s an eye-opener.

If you really want to understand the Germ theory fraud you have to back in history to Pasteur and Koch. It has always been used as a political tool to control the masses and implement depopulation when required. This time around is no different. The polio virus does not exist. The only damage is caused by the toxins they inject into you. There’s plenty of evidence Polio was caused by DDT and other poisonous chemicals in the outbreak in the US in the 1950s. Elsewhere in Africa, it is caused by Gates and his henchmen when they kill and maim millions all for profits. This guy is a complete psychopath. The new ‘polio’ outbreak is another fraud driven by fraudulent PCR assays that of course detect nothing but fragments of genetic material that exist in every human. They have never isolated SARS-CoV2 and they never will because it does not exist. There are 1.5 million Euros to be had for anyone who can demonstrate it does.
Pandemics are the new normal — gov & biotech industry look to develop new vaccines in 100 days:
“…should be part-developed before the next pandemic starts, involving sustained innovation and collaboration between large and small companies, academic and medical researchers, regulators and global health bodies […] a shared ambition to compress the already amazing achievement of 326 days for a COVID-19 vaccine to 100 days.”

Still calling them ‘grooming gangs’.
I dont pay the bBC licence tax, stopped a few years ago, got a ‘reminder’ letter from them asking if I still dont need a tv licence.
They say I need a licence if I watch live tv on Sky, Virgin Media or BT.
Also if I watch live tv through Amazon, ITV Hub, All4 and Youtube.
None of those are anything to do with the BBC, so why should I pay them?
Anyway the dont have my name or email address, so I will probably write to them to say, “no I dont need a licence”.
My son hasnt had a licence for a lot longer than me and has had no bother, so they arent even consistent.
I’ve just been watching yesterday’s edition of Brazier on GB News . The segment about the FBI raid on Trump’s home was interesting. Brazier had Delingpole and an American on separate interviews. Both told him it was a highly politicised action by the Democrats and their clients in the FBI. Both said it was yet another example of the Deep State/ swamp at work. Brazier wasn’t convinced that the deep state exists in the US and certain that it doesn’t exist over here.
On many issues I agree with the line that Brazier takes and respect the courage he shows on tackling issues the MSM will not. But on this he has his head buried deep in the sand. The last six years has demonstrated conclusively that the deep state has been subverting democracy in the US . The list of examples is well known to everyone on this site and needs no repetition.
Over here in the UK what else but deep state resistance has threatened Brexit since even before Trump was even elected? How else do you explain the refusal of the civil service to implement government policies it doesn’t agree with. How else do you explain why ‘thought crimes’ are at the top of the police agenda. How else do you explain the cover ups and looking the other way over the mass rape of thousands of young girls. Why can’t we deport invaders who arrive illegally. Once again there are many well known examples of our democracy being undermined by unelected members of a cabal , an establishment, which imposes its will on us and ignores our democratic decisions?
I’m afraid Mr Brazier if you can’t see that it’s because you don’t want to see it
Double – I’m still troubled by delingpole on that programme saying things are so ‘deep’ that there is a need to live an ‘alternative life ‘.
I don’t get this – maybe I misheard . I prefer the approach being taken by the likes of Lawrence fox actively challenging on behalf people like me .
Acceptance of things as they are is not a way forward . We sort of owe it to a ‘freer ‘ past and hopefully a ‘freer ‘ future …
Part of the trouble is the continuous urge to ban and criminalise – to disapprove – or in other places – ignore .
I fear restriction on the internet . Social media is now an unaccountable authoritarian thing / monster which certain types ( me ) can live without .
If this site died would I be affected ? No – nothing stays the same and there is a need to accept change ….
I like the brazier show though – and the figures are growing too ..
Delingpole has had a rough two years and has in part thrown in the towel. That’s how cancel culture affects folks , the never ending slog wearies them . They have a thousand enemies and very few friends.
Delingpole has been suffering with his Lyme Disease causing brain fog and depression.
He blocked me 2 years ago
Seemed to me that someone e radical reactionary was running his Twitter account.
I seem to remember that some years back Delingpole was in favour of recreational drug use. I just wonder if he is in a bad psychological way because of that. He seemed to think it was great fun.
I wasn’t convinced at the time and my anti-drug views have strengthened not softened as I have aged.
Yasser – I get a vibe of characters – and it sounds like me view of this one is similar to the one found guilty of harrassment last week who stew ran a commentary here last week ….
Interesting commentary/conversation on the FBI raid re Trump:

‘Brazier wasn’t convinced that the deep state exists in the US and certain that it doesn’t exist over here.’
Part of the problem is that the term ‘deep state’ implies something conspiratorial and mysterious and that tends to discredit any conversation, whereas we are really just talking about the standard, ordinary state or Establishment. In other words, the ongoing components which make up Great Britain Ltd or USA Inc, of which the current government is just one, transient aspect. For instance, the military, the security services, the civil service, the treasury, the propaganda arm and so on. These components provide the continuity of a country.
By way of illustration, think of a school. A new head may be appointed and the teachers may change. But the overall institution of the school, its purpose, the classrooms, the playing fields, the library and so on remain intact. They may remain unchanged for years, only altering slightly and on generational timescales. In this example, the head and the teachers represent the government, the school represents the state.
Ian,
The civil service, judiciary, charity bosses, 95% of the MSM , police , universities , have , as you say, always been a major part of the Establishment .
But what has changed in recent decades is that they have become politicised to the left and only to the left. Additionally they have become activists for their politics and use the power invested in them by the state to pursue their own agenda not that set by the democratically elected politicians unless the politics of the elected government coincides with theirs.
That is what I mean when I refer to them by the following labels, deep state, blob, or swamp.
Wonder how much the arsonists are getting paid?🤔
Listening to GB News a few minutes ago. Though we have not planned for future energy (no gas storage, dependent on Russia and others who may need the gas themselves, no fracking, lack of our own gas production development in N Sea, too late in the day to get Nuclear to help, sun don’t shine and the wind don’t blow much of the year…………….. etc). There is no one to answer why we planned (unplanned) to be in this mess. Make Merkel, Blair, Brown, Cameron, Clegg, May, Johnson explain how they have all f……d up. No chance.
We will have the same silence to explain the mess when the questions come “why did you allow so many people to over-populate your country with no thought about decaying infrastructure, lack of resources and public services, lack of proper jobs, economic failure (depression possibly), many undesirables who do not see UK as a friend but as an enemy to be exploited”.
The Mouse,
Simples, the elite want us to reach the same levels as the Third World and they are achieving that quite well, don’t you think?
G,
That is the end goal of the likes of the WEF except they would say that they want to the Third World to reach the same level of wealth as us. Of course that means massive continued wealth transfer from the First World to the Third World coupled with moving hundreds of millions of them into the West. We must become much poorer so they can become richer.
By the time the populations of the West realise what is going on it will probably be too late to stop it.
There was never any serious discussion in Britain of any form of population policy before Blair launched his mass migration project. It was not on the political agenda and nobody would take it seriously yet the country was filling up and social cohesion was being threatened back in the sixties.

Maybe its a test as to how dumb the voter / taxpayer is …
Blighty is in a mess because dumb assumptions have held sway for decades .
The globalists have assumed if there is a shortage here they can import it from somewhere else .
Just stupid , but there is no sign that they are learning any lessons . There is no urgency – just collective sleeping
Btw
I heard that inflation is peaking …. From the record store as ‘ inflation is transitory ‘
2024 at the earliest in my view- 2027 if he does a fuel furlough …
BBC News has a stairy eyed woman offering advice on how to save water, but she keeps inserting the words, ‘global warming is real’. Wait until we get heavy rain this Winter, it will be ‘climate change is real’.
G.W.F., wait until we get cold heavy rain (a.k.a. snow) this winter and it will be climate change is real. No-one will be listening however, they will be more concerned with staying warm and well-nourished.
BTW, snow is good. It doesn’t run off hard, parched, earth and snow melt helps restore the water table. That fact will not stop the BBC producing more scary stories via their non-weather forecasts: “Aaagh, its snowing thousands will die!” Yes, mostly old people who tend to die in winter whatever the weather.
ITV local NewsPR
“We’ve shopped around to find the lowest reservoir we can find, and brought our cameras down to scare you”
“Yorkshire water say their reservoirs have fallen to below 50%
.. and that’s 20% below the summer normal.”
That means the summer normal is 61% capacity and its fallen by 20% of that which is 12% of capacity
.. to 49%
I’m on the train from Chester to Halifax. I’m passing miles after miles of freshly mowed hay, same as driving along the M62. It looks golden yellow and my mate Phil the farmer has had 2 cuts. This will save them 10s of thousands on feed through the winter. So the brilliant weather up north red hot for a couple of weeks then rain is producing amazing yields.
Obviously the South East based BBC can’t see the benefits and neither I suggest do they want to.
So natural hay next winter none of that synthetic muck they would have to produce if we had wet summers.
And whilst I’m at I think we all know that this winter will be the coldest in a long long time…….it just has to be.
Can’t wait for the bbc ‘truthiness’ editorialising from Katty, Saz & Lurch.
Just like Wendy and Springster.
I wonder what the BBC weather charts are going to look like if we have a cold winter. Dark ink blue with big white Mr freeze lightning streaks and big ice chunks covering Scotland? Any temperatures over zero miraculously dark blue? Seems like climate change also changes map colours.
As a side note, I misspelt map and the only spellchecker offering was Mao.
Owami Davies: New CCTV footage released by police
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-62495983
This girl had been missing for more than a month and the BBC didn’t care until the story suddenly became hot-news a week ago after 3 men were arrested.
And who will remember some random black woman walking through Londonistan over a month ago ?. Why wait until now to release it ?.
I can’t help thinking the BBC know those men are white.
If they aren’t, the story will quickly disappear. We’ve seen it many times by now.
On GB News Nigel is asking the question “Does Liz Truss look like a prime minister?”
The answer, as far as I’m concerned, is yes she does.
Unfortunately, it’s Theresa May…
Jeff
Depends what the image of a PM is – is it a president ?CEO ?
Chair of a committee….?
Watching the GBNews thing I think she looks less wooden now – but as I’ve said here before – a PM needs to do detail – nut nut never did – as trade sec and foreign sec I thought she was pretty good on the Brief and wasn’t beaten by the sneery socialists . But I’ve got a £2.50 bet on her at 8/1…
