Midweek 10 August 2022

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….

    R$ jut had a show about rape
    Seemed to a lefty feminist saying it a problem of ALL MEN and a cultural PATRIACHY
    I search the tweets sent to Radio4
    They seem to be about the rapes R4 doesn’t mention

    A vanished news story: Amjad Ditta, the Yorkshire police officer charged with sexually abusing children aged 13 to 16 (seen here with Naz Shah MP).
    It’s nearly 3 years since he was charged.
    No court case ever took place.
    He was given unconditional bail and a full police salary.

    Jaroslav Mako has been found guilty at the High Court in Edinburgh of raping an 11 year old child.
    In Slovakia he had been jailed for 5 years for the sexual assault of another child, before coming to Scotland in 2020.
    He was jailed for 6 years & 8 months.

      So this Amjad Ditta was part of a big Pakistani child rape gang, in 2020 the case was posponed, what is going on, why is this case not sorted by now, someone in power should be kicking arses about this?

      BBC, known as a Harvest Moon south of the border because, in the good old bad old days to which the environmentalists and climate alarmists will have us back in shortly, if farmers were behind with harvesting for example because of rain ho-ho, they could catch up with their outstanding work on a dry day with a full ‘harvest moon’ enabling work after dusk.

    I see that the BBC require the city with the winning bid to host Eurovision to have ‘alignment with the BBC’s strategic priorities as a public service broadcaster’.

    Is that a little unwritten rule they have let slip out there?

    I suspect that’s one of the criteria they use to judge all potential partners, people and businesses before working with them. Very sinister.

    Yolande Knell said Israel claims that PIJ were responsible for the killing of “multiple children in Jabalia” and that “The BBC has not been able to independently verify this claim.” but we still don’t know why not.

    Was she being intimidated? She always seems genuinely sympathetic to Hamas, but maybe that’s par for the course if you want to stay alive. Or maybe the BBC simply doesn’t have an appetite for verifying anything said by Israel. The ambiguity in that cryptic sentence could mean anything.

    Keeping things vague suits the new form of journalism that matches the new form of democracy being touted by… the MSM.

    Trump is bang to rights, because ‘people close to the investigation’ have said so.

    Imperial have done a long thread about The London air pollution claimed death prog on BBC radio4
    Firstly is that graphic really representative of current London air ?
    I thought smog had gone
    Secondly did they pick black London presenter, cos it’s a black London issue ?

    In December 2020 Southwark Coroner’s Court found that air pollution “made a material contribution” to the death of Ella Kiss-Debrah. Ella died in February 2013 at the age of nine after over two years of severe asthma attacks and cardiac arrests that led to multiple hospital visits.

    Rosamund Kissi-Debrah, Ella’s mother, spent seven years after her daughter’s death trying to find the answers as to why her previously healthy child had suddenly become so gravely ill. An initial inquest found no connection to air pollution and at no point was air pollution mentioned as a potential factor in the time that Ella was ill.

    Eddie Nestor speaks to Rosamund and the key people involved in fighting for a second inquest and ultimately setting this hugely significant legal precedent.

    We also explore what comes next.
    How could the law be changed to reduce our exposure to invisible pollutants?
    What can government at all levels do to make the air we breathe less toxic?
    Is pressure from the public necessary to make drastic change happen?

    There are some people who, just by talking can turn you against them.

    Third in my list is far left nicola sturgeon, no explanation needed there.

    Second is the almost ever present on GBN news as guest, far left Nigel Nelson who was just on grinning ear to ear as he was saying that Trump is finished.

    First most irritating is that extreme far left Steve Valdez Symonds who talks to everyone in such a condescending manner as if talking to a naughty 4 year old.

    Why do these men always stab in the neck? Beheading?
    BBC News covers the story with a long interview with a man who was sitting in the 14th row. This man has strong beliefs in diversity and interfaithyness, and it was clear that he was trying to cool off any hostility or blame towards the moslems

      The stabber can’t have been a real Muslim because, as we all know, Islam is a religion of peace. Typical of the BBC to misdirect listeners.

    The truth. At last! Its all bollocks!
    The tyranny of Justin Trudeau has finally been exposed – and by two Brits, no less
    A lawsuit has shown Canada’s travel vaccine mandate had little to do with science and everything to do with politics.
    …(edited)
    Trudeau always maintained his government’s Covid policies were based on the science and the latest evidence. Yet, his shifting rhetoric, before and after his election call, tells a different tale. Thanks to a civil lawsuit against the travel mandate by two British immigrants, we’ve now seen inside the guts of part of Trudeau’s Covid machinery, and it’s become abundantly clear that it has little if anything to do with science and everything to do with politics.
    ….
    The tale of Trudeau’s vaccine mandates has ramifications far outside Canada. The world over, governments have invoked draconian powers, heretofore only used in wartime, to control and regulate their people and curtain fundamental individual liberties, such as the right to gather or the right to mobility. Everywhere, people are told by their governments, much as Trudeau told Canadians, we’re so sorry, we hate to restrict your freedoms, but we’re just following the science and the evidence. We know, in the case of Canada’s travel mandate, that this is simply false. In the Canadian case, Trudeau’s ministers have made it clear that the suspended mandates could come back, as, indeed, could Covid-based restrictions the world over.

    Thanks to two British immigrants, we now know how the Covid policy sausage is made in Canada, and it isn’t pretty.

    Fully supported by the BBC at the time (ridiculing Canadian Truck Drivers as all Trumps supporters) and an example for the Canadian example to follow (against BORIS more bumbling hands off policy).

    Another liberal lefty stronghold was New Zealand that volunteered for the full WHO dosage – even arresting NZ aborigine’s for refusing a dose of vax. The liberal left are worse than Stalin when they think they have an advantage to rule the world. Now we know its all ‘political’ WHO scare mongering to ‘save-the-planet’.

    Another example of Agenda 21 climate change agenda in action. A long lost list of – ‘countdown’ examples to save-the-planet (which the BBC claim as lost opportunity for global socialism) can be see here: All of its bollocks.

    And what is worse is that Doctors were forced to accept the vaccine from Pfizer. It was never tested!

    How can this happen without MEDIA instance and dire prediction by the BBC ‘deaths with COVID’ etc.

    EXCLUSIVE TO DOCTORS FOR COVID ETHICS: A second Freedom of Information request seeking regulatory transparency has revealed that the UK medical regulator never inspected Pfizer’s COVID-19 clinical trial data, joining the Australian regulator in rubber-stamping Pfizer’s vaccine.

    The BBC report that Salman Rushdie has been stabbed in the neck.
    Yet despite there being many witnesses, one of whom is interviewed, plus some video and pictures, the BBC manage to tell us nothing about the characteristics of the perpetrator. And to be fair, most of the MSM seem equally reticent. One senses collusion.

    Anyone would think that there were some inconvenient truths to keep away from the public.

    BBC going on about no new reservoirs being built since 1976/1986 .

    Could it be because at that time the population of the country was actually DECLINING?
    So no new reservoirs were needed .

    And now that the likes of the BBC are admitting that the Southeast has had a huge influx ( of immigrants) ,

    Will they acknowledge that huge waves of immigration means the immigrants cannot pay their way because we need to increase the infrastructure of the country before they invade .

      The BBC love a good soak. They like to live well and they must consume lots of water for the Garden home(s) Swimming Pools, Jacuzzi(s) and hot tub sauna(s). Its thirsty work producing propaganda to save the planet.

      But I was wandering what The Romans did for water in the UK?, and the answer is in last weeks Spectator magazine in a good piece of history by Peter Jones, who outlines what the Romans did (unlike the current BBC overlords blaming the weather and (false) CO2 emissions.

      The Romans at the time grew Grapes up North in Yorkshire. It was hotter Summers then, not that BBC do history that much if it goes against EU/UN/IPCC doctrine and in built socialism quest.

      But we can thank the Romans for some very clever UK waterways! , which we have relied on ever since. We need a new UK national grid cZAR for water, that means canals and viaducts from North to South. Sod the BBC. The facts are the Romans had a czar to deliver water and build viaducts and it worked… Even the marshes were managed.

      We all need water. We need a water czar.. (read on) Get the Water Board to build it, I say.

    Just out of interest, how many readers use a hosepipe regularly for say 10-15 minutes a time, several days a week ?
    Personally a hose pipe ban will have little if any effect on my life. Mrs S waters the plants with a watering can, as per normal. I wash the car about three times a year. We clean the patio about once every two years, usually early Spring, not in August.

    Yet the BBC report imminent hosepipe bans as if a meteorite is about to hit the Earth and the end of the world is nigh.

    Another example of their doom-and-gloom seditious narrative to add to many others.

      We are up North, no hosepipe ban.
