Unpleasantness at the BBC . Staff are threatening to strike over the merger of 1 BBC propaganda News channel with another .There’s a petition to save it. At the time of posting this it has 2700 signatures in 48 hours .( There is also a petition to save Channel 4 from being sold – there millions of signatures – actually 9300… with 5800 in 4 months on the parliament site .).Any dissent within the BBC must be welcomed and encouraged – it’s a long battle to kill it – but we will .

Some while ago, I had the distinct feeling that one, ‘Alexander Mercuris’ had pro-Russian Communist sympathies. Despite trying to conceal his leanings, for me, I could spot them a mile away. I’ve not watched his videos for years since.
What kind of man alleges this: https://www.stopfake.org/en/russian-media-columnist-alexander-mercouris-struck-off-over-claim-that-senior-law-lord-had-him-kidnapped/
Yesterday (August 16th) at 8.20, I heard a few minutes of the Today programme. They had on someone from Ofwat. Mishal was interviewing. She asked my why the fines for the water companies were so low, quoting £3 million when the CEO was paid £2 million. The chap answered that one company had been penalised so heavily (I wasn’t sure if it was a fine) that the company had to be taken over and the investors had lost all their money. Now I am not sure about the rights and wrongs of what he was saying, but what was obvious was that Mishal wasn’t listening. She kept asking questions about how lightly the water companies were being fined. The man from OfCom might as well not bothered to speak because Mishal certainly wasn’t listening. What a difference to GBNews where usually a discussion takes place and arguments are developed. Perhaps the difference is Nigel Farage when he has on someone he doesn’t agree with. But he lets them speak and he doesn’t interrupt, he is not looking to get a headline out of it. When they finish he just says something to the effect that they will have to agree to disagree but at least GBNews has heard their arguments. I bet he doesn’t get paid as much as Mishal or Nick.
There are only 2 options to properly manage that SNP rabble at the Perth, Scotland hustings.
And elsewhere where this bunch of malcontents traipse around Scottish towns and cities ( thankfully in decline)
1) Proper policing which would require the separation of Police Scotland from its management team a.k.a the SNP
0r ;
2) A legal requirement that such SNP related “protests” must be held with strictly only “scottish Gaelic spoken or indeed yelled.
“scum níl ann ach rud caca”
or words to that effect.

By your circle wagoneers ye shall know them.
Dear Marianna Spring (BBC wages paid under threat of prosecution),
As I’ve had to look at your BBC news and use other sources to determine that your news is not news but selective editorial opinion I’d like to request that I have a refund for the last 4 years plus get the BBC free from now on.
Please let me know how I can go about this as I am willing to create a full list of articles that I’ve had to investigate plus time taken for me to check your fact checker whilst realising that the BBC intentionally removes news rather than incorrectly report on it, uses images to sway opinion or misleads with the main titles hoping no one reads the full article.
‘Omission is the greatest form of lie.’

Wonder who funds “STOP funding HATE”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9704411/Founder-far-left-campaign-group-Stop-Funding-Hate-history-posting-offensive-tweets.html
The tax payer I expect! I get a lot of unsolicited mail from charities most of which I believe are aiding causes with which I strongly disagree with eg RNLI. So I’ve started returning the begging letters , without a stamp , with my views scrawled across them.
Always ask what the real name is
“Is Stop Funding Hate”, an org that discourages funding all hate ?
Nope it’s an ambush name,
it’s actually pretty hatey, it goes around attacking people who are speaking legally and honestly, but who are daring to challenge Marxist and leftist dogma.
That’s like the mafia coming round and saying “you don’t want to be doing business with org”
Where were such checkers when the Guardian’s Jim Waterson wrote an attack piece on the Steyn Show ?
which was jam packed with fundamental errors like saying Steyn broadcasts from Canada
when he has never done any episodes of his show from Canada at all
Those hypocrites never stopped trying to cancel GB NEWS even before it started, it just shows how scared they really are of freedom of speech.
I have watched a lot of GB NEWS and I believe they have tried to be fair and equal, but they are not scared of covering subjects others wont touch.
I would actually pay to support GB NEWS instead of the bBBC.
Kinda miss the BBC’s pet nutter.

TWatO Watch #1 – Prof ‘Danny’ Blanchflower doesn’t know what he is talking about
No surprise there. He’s got the economy wrong before. On the other hand, he does know what he is doing because it is ‘a thing’ that the wealthy and highly paid do every time there is inflation in the UK economy: they talk up the risk of deflation. No surprise that a highly paid Radio presenter (Jonny ‘Disjointed’ Dymond has two jobs at the BBC) should invite on ‘Danny’ Blanchflower to raise the very shady spectre of deflation when everyone else is talking about inflation.
I’ve seen it before and if I live to 100 years of age I might see it again.
What the high paid and wealthy – who generally do really well out of inflation – do not consider, is that inflation always stays in an economy until you have deflation, or as I prefer to call it, negative inflation. Jonny was quick to point out at the start of his piece on the economy, the last time inflation was at 10% was in 1982. The BBC have been very keen to do that today on BBC RadioFlaw News because it was a Conservative Party government at the time led by the BBC hated Margaret Thatcher as Prime Minister.
That 10% inflation we had back in 1982 is still in the price of everything that we buy in the shops today. Every good still has 1982’s inflation in it. Every State Benefit still has 1982’s inflation in it. The BBC Licence Fee still has 1982’s inflation in it for those silly enough to pay it.
The only way you will get rid of inflation is not to limit it to 2% and place that as a requirement for the Bank of England’s MPC as Gordon Brown stupidly did in 1997. That resulted in approximately 40% inflation over 13 years of a Labour Government. That meant that our money lost half its purchasing power by 2010. Thanks, Gordon.
The only way to get rid of inflation is deflation.
I must admit as I listened I wondered what his record was like – I had a feeling the best thing to do was do the opposite of what he suggests. He was the clown who came up the the BRICS thing wasn’t he .
Maybe the R needs to come out of that as far as engagement Russia will be having with the civilised world for a while – apart from hydrocarbons , corruption and spies of course …
Not sure on that Fed, wasn’t it someone else who is a regular ‘contributor’ to BBC R4 who named BRICS? It’s in their Wiki as I was reading it a while back. Sad, yes, isn’t it? Being interested in reading about econmists! It is not in David Graham Blanchflower’s Wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Blanchflower
Jul 31, 2020 | 4 minute read … This prevalence of gay women in football has been the case for a long time, too. As the sport grows vastly in popularity, researchers are paying more attention to how a culture of tolerance and openness towards LGBT+ players has been cultivated. Generally, this is put down to engrained gender expectations and how sport functions in society. It is impossible to claim any one theory as fact; identities are multi-layered, culture is complex and sexualities are not binary.

Was media QUICK to report that an unvaccinated swimmer is being allowed into Australian to swim ?
“Just over six months after the deportation of Novak Djokovic rocked the Australian Open, the red carpet will be rolled out for famously unvaccinated US swimmer Michael Andrew.”
Reported the Australian Daily Telegraph
Someone tweeted the story at 10:30pm Monday night

BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – it is quite laughable what the BBC Picture Editor does at times
Home page, top line second from left, https://www.bbc.co.uk/ very blond woman looks in puzzlement at her shopping list and tries to unravel her own or her partner’s or housemate’s handwriting. She cannot be horrified at the cost of her shopping because she is very obviously still inside the store and is not at the checkout or even outside the store. Click on link and hey, ho, woman changes skin colour! Miraculous. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/business-62566828
People will make of that what they will and some will see it as inverted racism. On the other hand, the feminists will be outraged. Why cannot men go and do the shopping? Why is it left to the women? I would tend to agree with that latter view.

AFAIK Something similar was used against Patreon
when they let righty bloggers sign up

but then Patreon banned the righty on a whim, just as big tech tends to do.
So that became them interfering in the contract between the bloggers and their fans.

Twato had the incident in their headlines and I expected an elaboration later in the programme. Nothing. Wonder why. I see the Met notice is timed, “1320”. Could it be that, “Our Worlds Most Trusted” saw the notice and photos and immediately pulled the more in depth item? Not only that, it was not whitee wot dun it so, in keeping with their active shielding of black criminals, it conveniently disappeared. Perhaps he was running back to Broadcasting House. Still got the knife in left hand.

I was in Cairo in the days after a 2017 Palm Sunday terrorist attack in Alexandria on Coptic Christians that had emptied Egypt of tourists. On my flight down to Aswan, I noticed that I was the only non-Chinese passenger. One informed me she was a hydroelectric engineer travelling to study the Aswan Dam with her colleagues. My Egyptian guide wryly informed me later in Egypt the Chinese are known as the ‘conquerors’ — he meant of all Africa.

Kenya elections 2022: Full results of presidential and parliamentary races

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

I see that Goldsmith is one of Truss’s team! I desperately hope that this doesn’t signal that she is going to have any truck with Net Zero and the eco loonies.
The three policy options she has which will differentiate her from Starmer and Johnston are :
A.ditching Net Zero
B. getting a grip of immigration, both legal and illegal , and reducing the numbers entering the country by a lot more than 50%, which I regard as the minimum to show serious intent.
C. Completing Brexit
I assume that both Labour and the Tories will have essentially similar policies on inflation and living costs.
Do those three things and she will win the next election easily and equally importantly I will vote Tory.
Of course doing , or attempting to do , any of those three things will incur the wrath of the liberals who are bringing the country to its knees. The civil service, the House of Lords, the MSM , charities , green nut jobs and all the usual bleaters will go bananas. Come to think of it she could promise to force subscription on the BBC as a fourth positive point of difference between Truss and Starmer.
Theresa May on immigration … from ‘hard’ line to ‘pink no line’ …
2012 … “Two and a half years ago, the coalition government was formed, and we made a clear promise to the British public. After thirteen years of uncontrolled mass immigration, this government would reduce and control immigration.” – Theresa May 2012
2015 … “Because when immigration is too high (no figure given), when the pace of change is too fast, it’s impossible to build a cohesive society.” – Theresa May 2015
2018 … “Over the years, overall, immigration has been good for the UK. It has brought people with different backgrounds, different outlooks here to the UK,” – Theresa May 2018
Easily confused.
Likely fewer staff in the luxury hotels.
Gary Linker opens up his home?
HA HA HA HA
I can sum all that up in one:
Liz is a remainer who turns her coat to be whatever she thinks people want her to be.
It has been engineered from the start to make her the next PM. That makes me very worried.
They did the same with Theresa May and – as I did with May – I am hoping she is transformed by the responsibility and turns out to be a strong, principled conservative who represents the people. But look how that turned out last time.
There is a bit of a difference between May and Truss in that May had everybody guessing as to how she would turn out. It is important to remember this. She played her cards very close to her chest. A bit of an enigma many thought at the time. I don’t recall her making any list of promises like Liz has done.
If Truss carries out just a quarter of her promises she still be a massive, welcome improvement on Cameron, May and St Boris the Martyr combined.
Maybe so – but I personally liked Boris a lot more when Cummins had his arm up his arse operating him like Sooty instead of nut nut …
I think the BBC would be working out their notice period by now.

How desperate do you have to be to think this is newsworthy? Let’s take Perth, for example.

Which means that a week’s worth of rain usually falls within a little more than two of its days.

As soon as you learn of a stabbing in broad daylight with witnesses and no description whatsoever of the murderer on the BBC, you know the most likely sub-branch of the human species which did it and they are deliberately not telling you.
Sure enough, here is prime suspect number 1 fleeing the scene:
It makes me laugh when they are all righteous about free-speech after Rushdie was stabbed – yet carry on as usual with their racist censorship. Total hypocrites. The BBC and the Left HATE free speech. It lets people tell the truth. They want anything which does not fit the far-Left agenda oppressed.
Maybe he is a model for TV adverts.
I have to question the accuracy of your using the phrase ‘human species’.
A decoy for maxi.
He practises the BBC kind of free speech.
Gloves ?
They’ve finally updated the article to include the picture. They describe him as:
He is described as wearing grey shorts, a dark coloured T-shirt, a white baseball cap and white patterned builder style gloves.
mmmm … one important part of the description which would rule out half of all people wearing similar clothes seems to be missing.
Which is odd because I’ve seen murderers described as white many times on the BBC. Yet I can’t recall any telling us he was black – despite the latter case occuring much more frequently.
JohnC Its wrong to say “They’ve finally updated the article to include the picture”
the page had the photo on 3.5 hrs before you posted
We discussed above.
Well, they had finally updated it when I checked Stew.
I don’t check there every 5 mins : having a look at the BBC news page is more of an ordeal than something I do regularly.
They most certainly didn’t have it for my original post when others did.
Poor old bugger, he was 87, means he was born in 1935, I think?
That would mean he was a child during the war, wonder if he witnessed the Blitz? Wonder if he lived in London all his life?
What stories he must have had, what changes he must have seen… gone from a city of predominantly white, locally born and bred, to one of overwhelmingly foreign born immigrants with no connections or ties to the city. What did he make of that? Was he welcoming and friendly, or suspicious? Was he ever mugged?
He was vulnerable, pathetically so, and in the end, it cost him his life. Did he think the police would keep him safe, or people in the street come to his rescue if he was attacked? It doesn’t look like a particularly rough neighbourhood, perhaps he felt safe there, or wasn’t aware what an easy target he was?
My parents have turned 80 this year. Will they be as vulnerable as this guy in a few years? Will some piece of scum like this knife them too?
Luckily they don’t live in London, but how long before this is going on in every provincial city and town in this country?
I’ve got 35 years to go until I’m his age, what state will this country be in by then? I don’t think I want to be alive to see it.
IF they ever catch this guy… well, there’s no way he should ever be let loose on the streets again.
BBC hearing how this harmless old gentleman met his end is very emotional. One can only imagine what his family must be going through. Bad enough losing a family member at any age, but at this age, disabled and in his scooter, its easy to imagine it could have been one of our own. An eye for an eye springs to mind. Its bad enough that ‘old folk’ don’t venture out at night, but it seems we may have to be ‘tooled’ up ourselves for a trip to the Co-op during the day, just in case.
I had friends living in that part of London since 1947, but in the past 40 years white flight really took off. My friends passed on years ago, but few whites remain. Shocking.

Shouldnt let that racist on.
ITV local news
“Ooh look at all the flood damage in Market Rasen from rain last night”
It was obvious that it was Oxford St
the same road that flooded on Monday lunchtime
that I mentioned here.
One store they featured was Euronics.
I don’t know why they had stock at ground level still. when the street outside was only just flooded on Monday.
Today by the end ITV were saying it seemed the drains were blocked.
I reckon the drains haven’t been properly attended to, cos management have been sidetracked on climate change projects.
BBC just did the same report
but they had their Global Warming mad reporter on the scene
so he spouted dogmatic slogans “rained on ground that has been baked hard for weeks”
Then he had them play that TV experiment video
“see rain doesn’t dissipate on ground after a heatwave”
.. That experiment doesn’t replicate when I try it
i can demonstrate that water does go into the grass quite quickly.
And as it happens Market Rasen is only about 20 miles from here, so the ground and grass will be in the same condition.
The BBC reporter’s claim is also double false.
The land around that street land night was no longer “baked hard” anyway
.. it had had a good dose of rain 36 hours earlier,
that’s when the street had flooded, but only to the steps of the buildings, not inside like this morning.

Anyone watching Dewbs on GBNews?
Just had a discussion about lawlessness in Britain and they showed a video that would *never* be shown on the BBC – a group of youths descending on a shop, shoplifting, then running off en masse.
And the close ups seemed to show all the culprits were black.
Blacks running away from crimes seems to be a hot topic today actually…….
Mugging and steaming is back – will only get worse …
Plod won’t be anywhere near able to deal with 3 days of traditional Notting hill weekend mostly peaceful disorder ..
Just yesterday the BBC News channel had a fawning piece about the Taliban have reduced violence to zero in Afghanistan.
24 hours later they now report ‘Many casualties feared ‘ in Kabul mosque blast
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-62581102
You can always trust the BBC to back the losing horse.

Wonder how many innocent people his AK47 drilled holes in before he became a pen pusher BBC poster boy?
A military bunch wade into another country called Ukraine causing loads of deaths and they are the devils spawn and hated by the BBC.
A Para-Military group wade into a country called Afghanistan causing loads of deaths and they are fawned over by the BBC.
One group is Muslim brown people and the other is not.
Guess which?
Maybe his job was popping holes in mud walls at low level before a BBC ‘investigative team’ of wimmin arrive?
Mind-boggling ridiculousness in our armed forces to the point of becoming dangerous to the security of this Country.
The RAF are rejecting applications from young white men to fill their quota of diversity.
Young white men have been at the forefront of stepping forward to face danger to protect this Country since time immemorial.
What the hell does the RAF think it’s purpose is? A social Service?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-62582156
This will only make Russia and China much more confident and belligerent.
Who the hell is behind this farce, the UN or Soros maybe?
It won’t be long before doctors are instructed to euthanise white, male babies at birth at this rate.
Must be time for the SNP to have uniform brown shirts to suit their anti English totalitarianism …
Let’s play a sick game about the Greenford murder –
Let’s assume that the third world knife boy isn’t ‘local ‘ but recently got off a dinghy at Dover or didn’t go through any system .
Apparently a BBC type spotted ‘ spoke to him Wednesday after noon then he ran off .. this may be false news ….
RIP…
Fed Up-Maybe the BBC were interviewing him

In days gone by, they may have been worried that msm media reaction would be negative.

The BBC would not play the Seekers single ‘Another You’ unless it was already a hit. This work to make it a hit was done by the pirate radio stations.

Londonistan killings and killers do reflect the excellent multiculturalism which blesses the capital , so yo might recall a stabbing killing off Oxford street Tuesday . A 58 year old Asian has been charged with the murder of another Asian age 60 .
In this case Asian means Korean- not the usual paki criminals …who are – of course – Asian …

From the DT – the fall of paid TV?
Almost 600,000 British households cancelled their Amazon Prime subscriptions ahead of a price rise as the cost of living crisis hits streaming companies.
The number of UK Prime customers fell by 590,000 in the second quarter of 2022 according to Ofcom, the industry watchdog, a drop of 5pc. Amazon announced an increase in its fee by £1 a month to £8.99 in July.
Meanwhile Netflix endured a 1pc fall in subscribers, down by 210,000 year on year to 17.1m during the second quarter, as viewers tightened their belts to counter soaring inflation.
Disney bucked the trend by adding 1.8m subscribers to 6.6m – an increase of 38pc – as the Star Wars producer became the world’s biggest streaming service, although its rate of growth slowed from previous months.
Overall, Ofcom’s Media Nations report found the number of households subscribing to at least one streaming service had fallen by 350,000 to 19.2m
Despite the drop, the media watchdog said that some of those subscribers may return when the economic horizons brighten.
The regulator said: “Cancellations do not necessarily represent customers that have been lost for good.
“Ofcom’s survey of subscribers who cancelled earlier this year found that almost three quarters of customers said they thought they would resubscribe – reflecting the flexibility that allows customers to pick up and drop subscriptions depending on changes in programmes, needs or circumstances.”
The data calls into question how resilient streaming services are to economic downturns despite some analysts claiming they have become a necessity households cannot do without.
Sky was among entertainment companies to have proven recession resistant in the past because it had few commercial competitors in the UK.
However, it is now showing signs of strain as the streaming revolution hands customers the choice to downgrade to a cheaper provider such as Netflix.
Sky reported earlier this year that customer numbers had fallen by 255,000 to 2.7m for the three months to June, as it grappled with “macro economic challenges across Europe”.
Ofcom found that the number of subscribers to NOW, Sky’s streaming service, had dropped by 220,000 to 2.1m for the second quarter.
Disney has been among the outliers in the global streaming slowdown, as viewers lapped up the Star Wars series Obi Wan Kenobi and the Predator reboot Prey.
The world’s biggest entertainment company added 14.4m customers to its streaming service Disney+ in the quarter ending on July 2, taking total worldwide sign-ups to 221m.
It is now just ahead of rival Netflix, which has been losing customers and reported 220.7m total global subscribers.
The pressure to hold onto subscribers amid intensifying competition and tougher economic conditions has prompted Disney, Netflix and Amazon Prime to introduce advertising-funded options that make watching shows cheaper or free for viewers.
Meanwhile, Ofcom said the ongoing shift towards streaming meant the number of younger viewers watching broadcast TV had fallen by two thirds over the past ten years.ENDS

So Tories did an event
#1 Lefty Rentamob turned up and hurled abuse
#2 BBCnews narrative “OMG this is terrible someone hurled abused at a BBC holyman”
Full context the existence of anti-Tory hatemobs is a reality
Their aim is to intimidate, and it works some people stay away.
Their primary focus is Tories
#3 BBC staffers CAN put up with it
.. It just reflects badly on the lefties
However when normal grannies stay away due to the intimidation, then that shows the shouting is a form of violence cos it stops us going out our daily business.
BBC video
The intimidation against regular public
Steve Remainiac Bray tweeted this to his 178K followers and the Tory woman
“You chose to take your 15 year old daughter,
did you expect a hearty welcome???
It’s not just SNP that think and say this!
It is the majority of the UK!
That seems nasty and bullying
GBnews just put on another clip
That to me instantly looks like Socialist Workers Party and the Hatey Not Hopey front group,
cos they come equipped with the normal preprinted signs on sticks

The James Cook piece above just about shows what happens when the BBC becomes just an uncritical cheer leader for the SNP . There we have a demented SNP fascist telling a Scot’s man to go back to England .
The tribal – primitive – hatred for England really is troubling and the step toward terrorism can’t be too far away , when it happens the BBC will be shocked and wonder how it happened and of course who to blame .. it will be the English of course …
Now is that an officer who is female and recruits, or one who only recruits females, who are senior?
They tweeted that story almost 24 hours after Sky broke it ( on Tuesday 16 August 20:57)
and the BBC’s own story admits that the Sky story is the source.
So some female non entity non executive director resigns from OffGem, and the medja are all over it because of the leaked reason she gave for her resignation.
“A director at energy regulator Ofgem has resigned, accusing it of favouring businesses over consumers with a rule change that will add as much as £400 to the average UK household energy bill.”
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2022/aug/17/ofgem-director-christine-farnish-quits-over-energy-price-cap
Of course it being in the Grauniad and about the evil Towies putting business first the BBC are all over it but and this is the big question who is this Christine Farnish?
I thought I’d do some digging and find out, and yet there’s next to nothing about her and her background. She appears to be a civil servant, the type who is always around like a bad smell, and has no actual expertise or experience in anything.
She was on the board of “Consumer Futures” which dates back to 2008 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consumer_Futures
So if you hear about this do not take it at face value, this is a Whitehall perma plant without insight or knowledge of the industry she puports to regulate.

I have noticed that even the BBC weather temperature maps are fiddled and biased.
Tonight for instance they showed the max temp tomorrow of 25 for our area in scorching red. With more northern areas getting temperatures around 16 to 18 shown in orange to pale yellow to light green.
The next forecast ten minutes later illustrated the nighttime temperature for our area of around 16 degrees and you guessed it 16 became the new scorching red.
This is trying to say whatever the public think, the BBC want them to be climate scared.
I have been watching this sleight of hand by the BBC weather folk for a few days and if you keep an eye on it you will see the skullduggery they are up to.
It’s not so subtle climate alarmism. We just can’t trust the beggars.
I think I am going to photo the main weather screen temperature chart for a few days to find out just how much they are manipulating the maps, moving the goalposts and thus their viewers perceptions.
I don’t care how convinced they are that they need to lead Joe public by the nose on climate change, lying tactics like this, once spotted undermine everything they try to do.
