As an addedum to my post above, if you are not versed in bbc correct speak:
Everyone we do not like is far right, BUT
Ukranian far right nazis are never to be referred to as such, they are freedom fighters, end of, no further discussion.
Any Ukranian nazi prison guards in concentration camps in WW2 were only following orders OK ?
Now, lets find a Tommy Robinson story…and the bbc muzzies are demanding another far right Hindu story.
Jim Davidson and Dan Wootton discuss ageism at the BBC and wokeness in comedy
They also reveal how the BBC gets rid of its talent then bribes them to lie about it.

Had a BG boiler service. Turned up in an e-Van.
Got to chatting about their next visit as it is a nice gig touring the shires.
Seems productivity has plummeted as they have to plan around fast charging points.

BG ditched a fleet of EV service vehicles before they were even put out to field service – they were parked in a field in Surrey for months and slowly de- liveried and fed to dealers across the country – was the story I was told by a guy in the motor trade (main stealer)
I just got a new BG boiler, it can easily be converted to hydrogen, but the engineer said, “dont worry, by the time we go over to hydrogen this new boiler will be at the end of its life”, and heat pumps are a no go for old houses.

Kathy chooses to hurl poo and stir the leftist cesspit part of US politics from a safe distance with the enthusiastic assistance of the MSM.
The cast of characters on the US “progressive left” is a total shitshow – but the BBC won’t countenance any criticism of them or call out any unhinged antics – in fact they take every opportunity to embellish DNC narratives – NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE
Official Royal Statement
Following further evaluation this morning, The Queen’s doctors are concerned for Her Majesty’s health and have recommended she remain under medical supervision.
The Queen remains comfortable and at Balmoral.
It is beginning to look likely that Charlie will be taking his position, either as a regent or king. He will exercise power and support the green and mohamidan religions.
sorry G.W.F. just cant bring myself to upvote that depressing thought
@G.W.F. At which point I will flip from royalist to republican, as hopefully will many others.
Get woke go broke applies to royalty too.
Didn’t Charlie Boy once express the wish to be the Defender of All Faiths?
I think he’ll find that quickly gets whittled down to ONE, if the experience of every other muslim country in the world is anything to go by.
I would imagine that all the News Channels are gearing up now and checking to see that everyone has a black tie.
Britain’s history is full of great kings and queens, but that’s where they belong – as part of our history. The greatest tribute to Her Majesty would be that the monarchy ends with her, as the pinnacle she represents will never be matched. The antics of some of her children and grandchildren show that they are part of the problem, not the solution.
Beginning to wonder how long the forensic gaze of the BBC will be focused 24/7 on Balmoral. If Elizabeth battles on for lets say another 12 months will they still be rolling endless footage of the Balmoral Estate gates?
@Zephir you can easily check for when Beeboids tweeted the term “far right”
It’s no surprise that the people who object to the label “woke”
often use the term “far right” in a derogatory way to smear their political opponents
We spoke of the Beeboids endorsing Megha Mohan’s tweet against the labeL
Matthew Sweet has used the label Far Right 10 times
In a thread about people using the phrase “free speech is hate speech” Sweet labels RebelNews as Far right
Note how the Rebel video begins with Mark Steyn
So that suggests that Sweet is pursuing a long term vendetta against Steyn
Sweet says “I cannot find evidence that anyone on the political left has ever used “free speech is hate speech” as a slogan.
FFS that’s stupid.. the righties argument
Is “My free speech gets labelled by the left side as hate speech
so what they are saying is “my free speech is hate speech””
No one is doing the same against the lefties so of course they don’t complain about it.
Violent and hateful University Student placards and shirts say either “Hate Speech is Free Speech” or “Hate Speech is Free Speech”.
Posh upper-class Students have been taught by rich Communists that “Free Speech” is a right-wing idea thought up by the National Socialist German Workers Party. An example is that in Germany, Hitler was free to say what he liked. Today if Hitler spoke at Speakers Corner, plain clothes Police officers would turn violent, and then the uniformed Police officers would arrest the speaker for inciting violence. Hate Speech causes violent demonstrations against Free Speech by Students and Police officers. Only left-wing socialists and communists are allowed to use violent “Hate Speech” against their enemies in demonstrations. Right-wing people should be banned from speaking about Big Pharma and victims of the vaccine.
Listening to the energy statement and response – HMS Blackford was at flank speed telling us about the nasty conservatives .
So far it looks like we have a conservative prime minister – the first one in a very long time …. The noise about ‘not enough help ‘ is very loud but it was always going to be .
The detail will be important and hope the remedy will be put in place very soon …
Nothing to do with the BBC…
John Lewis have a new TV advert out
https://www.johnlewis.com/content/moments
It features a totally white, non disabled, not trans totally normal family!!! Everyone else in the video is pretty much an ethnic minority though.
Is this the start of the end of ‘go Woke, go broke’? Has John Lewis finally realised that their adverts need to appeal to the UKs majority population?
I wonder how long before the BBC also wake up to this.

I did not see a mother. Or was daddy formerly a woman?
Part 2 of David Dimly’s ‘Days that shook the BBC’, a brave breastbeater on BBC probity contained a couple of questionable features.
Divided into two sections, Iraq and Saville, the first provided ample and continuous evidence of Alistair Campbell’s utter contempt for truth and his arrogance when challenged on any aspect of his interpretations of it. This has to leave us wondering just how and why the BBC continue, repeatedly, to regard this lying thug as the go-to source of information and opinion and how the BBC reconcile this with DD’s theme.
On Saville – bearing in mind the program is supposedly an honest appraisal of the events surrounding the peroxide paedo’s exposure – not once despite frequent references to Newsnight and the burying of their lengthy research was the name Yentob mentioned. He appeared for a few frames in the audience at an Entwhistle press conference but that was it.
As an aside, Entwhistle’s brief tenure as Director General was revealed, perhaps accidentally, as that of the fall-guy – which tends to explain why someone with such a very common name could have been elected by the aloof elite on Floor 6.
Dimly’s 3-part work has simply shown that the BBC concept of honesty is continuously crafted to suit the circumstances, which is no honesty at all. But they don’t seem to appreciate the fact.
Not watched this yet but will do. I watched part 1 the other day and laughed when DD said “The BBC was seen as being a nest of left-wing vipers”. First bit of honest and accurate news I’ve seen on the BBC for years. And nothing changes.
Local radio presenter has just endorsed this tweet
“I don’t understand why Christmas lights are not solar powered”
He added “yes I don’t know why all buildings aren’t forced to have solar ”
Doh cos UK solar is rubbish
It only delivers in daylight and when it feels like it
So of course solar powered Christmas lights are rubbish cos you need it to be sunny to power them
Yet you only put them on at night.
Just have a read of this:
https://eandt.theiet.org/content/articles/2022/09/amazon-switched-off-its-solar-rooftops-after-fires-report-says/
Six separate instances of fires caused by solar panels atop Amazon fulfilment centres led the company to power down the technology, CNBC has revealed.
Amazon reportedly took all US solar rooftops offline last year after they caused at least six “critical fire or arc flash events” in warehouses between April 2020 and June 2021, affecting 12 per cent of such facilities.

Our amazing monarch may not be around much longer. The totally irreverent BBC have updates on her health next to a message about NHS waiting list. The headline page also shares the queens health updates with pieces on Trans issues.
I really do despise them they will treat her death as the end of colonialism and the monarchy. We will have a BME team commentating on events while sat with their feet on a union Jack as they did at the Platinum jubilee.
They totally despise our culture and society so lets hope more people than ever call them out for what they are, evil communist 5th columnists.

Lord of the Rings stars condemn racist backlash to new Amazon series cast
But don’t the rules of Cultural appropriation mean that Blacks should be banned from speaking European languages or wearing European dress.
Other way round. So-called European languages and European dress were actually invented by black people who were living here thousands of years, if not tens of thousands, or even hundreds or thousands of years, before White people evolved as a result of a genetic abnormality. It’s well known by Scientists ™ and Experts ™.

Ancient genomes indicate population replacement in Early Neolithic Britain: https://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/id/eprint/10073386/1/Brace_NEE19_PreProofs.pdf
As is found everywhere else, the inferior aboriginal population was probably massacred by the incoming superior and whiter Neolithic Farmers. Although we still are designed to get darker in summer by getting tanned.
So British Blacks should be dressed in Mesolithic Hunter Gatherer dress, but as these inferior people became extinct 6,300 years ago, clubbed to death by the superior early Neolithic Farmers. They should not appear in Tolkien’s Third Age which followed about 6,000 years ago. It was not until the present era that we see a return of these primitive peoples enriching our vibrant inner city areas with crime and civilisation collapse as the whiter Neolithic Farmers types leave town in what is called “White Flight”.
So the primitive Black population of Britain was below one percent between 4,278 BC and 1,962 AD. That’s 6,240 years with a 99% highly advanced population at its evolutionary peak.
We now enter the Netzerolithic Era were White Liberals happily get clubbed to death by inner-city Netzerolithic peoples looking for food.
The descendants the Ancient British are still here.

seems a fair question
I’d like to know what would happen if the driver of one of those tyre vandalised trucks had gone on the road without realising, lost control and wiped out a family in a small car on a motorway.,.
Would that get plod interested in dealing with these outright criminals.
Perhaps not in the same league as the teacher who they helped get jailed for refusing to call a boy a girl but maybe worthy of getting them to leave the police station?
Tampering with vehicles can get a custodial sentence iirc.
Cut the brake lines etc.
Even the Tweets could be actionable?
edit: a few years back there was a local feud and some van brakes were tampered with – the perp iirc got 6 months.
Criminal damage that has to be paid for.
Jail with hard labour !
Adding to my last post, drilling a hole in a truck tyre is a very dangerous thing to do. Truck tyres are inflated to much higher pressures than car tyres and the sudden escape of high pressure air could theoretically cause the whole tyre to rip open and explode and possibly catch fire. The consequences to the driller or anyone in the vicinity could have been life changing as they were blasted by high velocity shards of rubber.
Vacuous idiots!
What I find shocking is how weak men are these days. The woman in that video handles a drill very well but the men put no effort into it.
Same for the lots trying to smash the petrol pumps with a hammer. None of them can get any weight behind the hammers and have to hit 20 times before they can break a 2mm thick plastic window.

Difficult times for our amazing monarch. Whilst on here we strive to put everyone who cares for our culture and our heritage to the fore is now not the time to show a bit of reverence and reign in the trivial comments?
Not being draconian but perhaps we can all take this moment to show our respect and solidarity for someone who stands at the forefront of Britishness.
Halifax – i think you are asking a bit much. Such events affect people in different ways .
Premature announcements have already shamefully been made by Guido as well as some fool in BBC world service.,
As i write a racist woman is being given airtime on the 5pm radio news with meeshall just letting her talk and talk snd talk and talk – professor anna whitelock – just awful .
WOW ! Huw Edwards already wearing a black tie !!!! Bit premature Huw !
Brissles im a long time reader of your posts, perhaps that one is a tad distasteful.
I don’t see how Halifax, its generally accepted that newsreaders wear black when someone in the Family have died. Our Queen as we understand is still very much with us, until we hear otherwise, so yes, I do feel him wearing black is a tad premature !
Biased BBC Weather Watch
It has been droughting on and off all day here, and we have had at least 35 minutes of very firm rain the like of which we have not seen here for some time, possibly all year so far.
I’m in Gosport, Hampshire and here we have had quite a few inches of torrential rain in the past 24 hours. I took the chance of a break in the rain to get my rotavator onto my allotment as the ground has been baked hard up until now.
I managed most of the plot before I rode over what looked like a damp patch only for my rotavator to dig itself 18 inches down into a sea of wet mud!
It is a vintage Howard and very, very heavy so getting it out of the hole was quite a challenge involving ropes round trees with pulleys!
Last week when using it it was bouncing and skipping over the ground as if it was concrete.
What a change in just a few days, must be Global Damping!

The “Heroin Addict” who writes for the Guardian manages to do a whole article in the Guardian comparing Truss to her predecessor without using Boris’s name once, simply refering to him repeatedly as “the Convict”.
The “Heroin Addict” obviously thinks this a great wheeze as he constantly labours the point as I have seen him do before.
This reveals such a juvenile streak in The “Heroin Addict” that his ramblings just have to be dismissed as sour grapes.

digg,
Thanks for telling us who. As someone unfamiliar with The Guardian, I would’ve assumed you meant Will Self, another heroin user who has written for it.
I suppose I should add “former user” for the sake of this site, since we have to take people at their word.

What is the energy price cap and how high could bills go?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-58090533
“A typical household’s energy bill will rise to £2,500 a year from 1 October (from £1,971)
…
However, most households aren’t actually typical. Many factors like the number of people in a house, the type of property and how much they use their heating all make a difference.”
So why keep confusingly talking about it then.
Petrol prices aren’t referenced to what a typical car users annual bill is.
Why subsidise people’s energy bills anyway?
They’re already getting £400.
The more they spend on utilities. the less they have to spend on other things, cutting infation!
Monitoring twitter and seeing that the ECB has hiked rates by 0.75% suggests an out of control EU inflation rate …
… I’d rather write about that than some of the awful comments about HM The Queen … what happens to some people when they sit in front of a keyboard ?

– we’re f’d aren’t we?
Well, yes.
On a local shire media forum page they shared Liz’s cap wheeze, and the comments are… feisty.
As an aside our supplier informed us that they were jacking up our DD to cover shenanigans they estimate at several thousand by the same time next year.
Seems they are trying to stock up on our money for no one else paying at Christmas.
I have told them that is not a favoured option.
Maybe not in those terms.
Just got this from our ‘new’ supplier…

Green energy and tree planting
From 1 October, 100% renewable electricity will only be available to customers with a smart meter¹. Getting a free smart meter is the simplest way you can help to create a greener energy system.
We’re also changing how we go about planting trees – from planting one tree a year for every customer, to planting 1 million trees every year. Our goal remains the same – to create greener spaces across the UK with the support of our partners at The Woodland Trust and The Conservation Volunteers.
***
Well, that is just lovely. I will not be getting a smart meter, unless the Gov pulls a bbc and forces it on me. And even then…
Meanwhile, about trying to scare folk into handing over scarce savings in advance to cover your estimates, based on idiot projections and decisions…
That also sounds too BBC unique to swallow.
BBC News channel appears to be running with a 2 minute delay. Usually it is around 10 seconds. Anyone know why such a long delay?
Probably to cut out the cheering and whooping from the commie lizards in the junior reporter room next door!
I reckon they need to be sure before they make any official announcement .
Getting it wrong ends careers
In case Harry emerges from a Heinkel 111 with an Alsatian?
The BBC are absolutely loving the current situation with the Queen.
It’s a golden opportunity to pour out their fake empathy and they will go into overdrive when HM finally exits after a very good innings.
I’m not sure I will be able to stand it.
Then the process starts to gradually undermine, discredit and finally remove the Monarchy. Their success with Boris will give them confidence to go just a little bit further – and Charles will be another easy target.
It’s virtually free content to them and they are able to then sell their coverage to news networks the world over.
Odd how they can be so anti capitalism, and then so eager to indulge in it when it benefits them isn’t it?
Yes just checked the bbc news special, 4 members of Royal Family just arrived at Aberdeen airport off to Balmoral, Harry and Nutmeg were not part of the group.
If those 2 could quickly sign another Netflix contract to film the unfolding events they would be there like a shot.
I am sure all of our deepest concerns lie with Her Majesty who has served this country faultlessly throughout her long reign.
Unfortunately a sentiment not shared by the anti Tory scum left, already being reported that a few have posted Twitter posts about Liz Truss “poisoning” the Queen and other tasteless posts.
“Joe Politics account sparks outrage after posting distasteful tweet about Liz Truss and the Queen before being forced to delete it”
“‘They should be ashamed’: Jedward are told to ‘grow up’ as they are slammed for ‘insensitive’ tweets about the Queen’s health as they mock Liz Truss’ visit to Balmoral”
I fully expect the shallow and nasty far-Left woke brigade to celebrate when the news finally breaks.
One more reason to eschew Hollywood and hope for its rapid demise:

Reply to Marianna from a Sky News correspondent.
What hope for journalism when it increasingly sounds like a teenager’s afternoon out?
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.

So David Aaronovitch also has this hierarchy thing, so now he’s found out the guy is strongly anti-Jewish he’s done a Jewih Chronicle article

It must be based on the work of earlier journos
yet he doesn’t acknowledge anyone
Jonathan Kay @jonkay @Quillette editor
seems to have it all on Aug 12 th
in a long thread https://twitter.com/jonkay/status/1558209639698890754
Then 25th Aug article https://quillette.com/2022/08/25/the-increasingly-blurry-line-between-anti-racism-and-racism/
Kay later added “One of Marouf’s speakers was this guy, who helps dole out the Libs’ $595m media fund (He’s a journo professor, naturally)”
Seem the course ran and some journos attended it, but didn’t notice anything wrong
Their names seem secret.

The fuel shortage hits Islington
>> a new BBC daytime reality show about wood scavenging in the capital?
https://www.dailysabah.com/business/transportation/erdogan-echoes-putins-gripes-wants-russian-grain-to-be-exported-too
This is significant news, not so much for what the content is but because Erdogan is echoing Putin publicly giving a show that he and Turkey are aligning with Russia and the BRICS.
This is a further chipping away of the US hegemony which is the grand strategy. America had better start getting used to not being the world superpower and throwing its weight around in an irresponsible manner because when Bidens Presidency is over – even if he is removed from office the USA will be massively weaker than when he came to office, irreparably so.
Yalda Hadim- who ? Apparently she describes herself as ‘Anchor and Correspondent. Host of BBC World News. Impact with Yalda Hakim’. Still never heard of her ? An Australian born in Kabul. She recently tweeted…
“I tweeted that there had been an announcement about the death of the Queen. This was incorrect, there has been no announcement, and so I have deleted the tweet. I apologise.”
Obviously she won’t be sacked, disciplined or smacked on the wrist.
The bbc seems rammed with those whose renown, or even familiarity, in their own bubble heads is likely well out of sync with their market rate.
Where is International Blasphemy Day? BBC Omission
Dear BBC £3.5bn News Service paid under threat of prosecution by the Many, Not the Few,
I searched for “international blasphemy day” on the bbc.co.uk website and your site only returned ….

“International Blasphemy Rights Day, educates individuals and groups about blasphemy laws and defends freedom of expression, especially the open criticism of religion which is criminalized in many countries. Blasphemy Day was introduced as a worldwide celebration by the Center for Inquiry in 2009.”
1989 … Satanic Verses causes Iran to create fatwa for death of Salman Rushdie.
. . . 4 years later and they mention it . . .
1993 … Satanic Verses mentioned by United Nations.
. . . .10 Years of the UN doing nothing . . .
1999 … Iran say they will not hunt for the head of Salman Rushdie.
{meforum jun1999}
. . . 27 years later and the UN have been laughed at . . .
2016 … Fatwa on Salman Rushdie renewed by Iran.
{independent feb2016}
. . . 29 years after Satanic Verses.. maybe the UN could have more serious words with Iran . . . .
2018 …. Iran release state emojis that show ‘death to America’ and ‘death to Israel’.

“The omission is the most powerful form of lie, and it is the duty of the historian to ensure that those lies do not creep into the history books.” – George Orwell
BBC Nick Robinson Twitter 07nov2017 …‘”If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear”. I’m proud those words now adorn BBC HQ’
. . . .
Can the BBC £3.5bn News Service explain why this important day has been omitted from history when other international days are reported on? Was it too difficult to report on?

In fact cos of the Rushdie attack BBC radio4 are in the middle of repeating their 2019 series Fatwa
today they talked about assassination attempt on the Norwegian publisher
bullets missed his vital organs
Meanwhile Iran had said they wouldn’t send army out for Rushdie.
The UK was trying to negotiate to give the Iranians a way of backing out
but had to be quit cos of effective hostages in Iran.
It just occurred to me that Ursula VdL (flatten the energy curve speech) has a good track record of flattening things – she flattened the entire German armed forces as Merkel’s Minister of Defence.
6pm ITV we are not allowed to have normal news
we get death speculation porn instead.
Bubbleworld media look to turn everything into a media special .
Personally I show an interest in people when they are alive
and don’t bother with funerals etc
BBC local news has been scheduled for 7pm.
There does seem to be a sick aspect of the MSM to be the first to give out bad news .
I feel fortunate not to have a TV at the moment showing outside broadcasts from the gates of various place …
… in other news the permanent secretary to the Treasury has been fired ( peerage pending ) maybe it will concentrate the minds of other obstructive remainer types …
Sadly, our Queen has passed away .
A great loss to Great Britain and the free world. She held the nation together in good times and bad .
God Save the king !
The BBC have put a poster up but otherwise it has broken down, saying ”The content does not appear to be working”
God Bless The Queen.
God save The King.
The Queen is dead , but I cannot bring myself to say Long live the King. A sad day . We knew it was close but it is still a shock.
One tiny crumb of comfort for me at least is that she won’t see the endgame of what her country is becoming. It would have been terrible for her to see where the nation that sacrificed so much to beat the murderous Nazi regime ended up.
You might think she will have seen how far we have fallen in recent years , but we have a way to go yet before we become the war torn shit hole that seems unavoidable. She has at least been spared that.
