Quite unbelievable that Merkel has said she has no regrets about tying Germany to Russian gas supplies! Of course it’s never going to affect her personally so why should she care?
“I do not regret decisions at all, rather, I believe that it was right from the perspective of the time,’ she said, adding that cheap Russian gas had allowed Germany to push ahead with phasing out nuclear and coal.”
So she left her country with no alternatives and actively closed them down and she still thinks this was a good decision?
If it had carried on much longer Germany would have had zero generating capacity and the lights would be out already!

YOUR COMPLAINT:
President Trump’s 100 Days President Biden’s 0 Day
Dear Winston Smith in the Records Department of the Ministry of Truth,
You covered President Trump’s 100 Days and then produced a Beyond 100 Days to hold power to account.
Why have you not done the same for President Biden to hold power to account?
‘Omission is the greatest form of lie.’

Seems like a ‘content creator’ a significant % of W1A could love.
Seems to me that Only Fans is a kind of online prostitution.
If that man was a woman he could have dressed up in short shorts and vest and worked in Hooters Bar in central Singapore.
Singapore might pretend to be prim and proper but I bet there is quite a large escort industry there.
Plus every night many Singapore men cross into Malaysia to seek entertainment.
The BBC is being, at best, ‘coy’.
Read about this days ago via the fam. Bit more than you suggest, iirc he was getting his todger out to scare the horses online at Orchard Towers.
Making no gender presumptions, since the old loos ceased to be a Bugis Street platform for those of an ‘artistic’ bent, the ‘karaoke’ bars of Geylang used to do a nice line in throat warbling too.

Tony Blair and the case of the disappearing cabinet
Richard Norton-Taylor
Wed 30 May 2007 00.03 BST
The cabinet only took one decision during Tony Blair’s first eight months in office, the country’s top civil servant at the time has revealed. And that was to delegate the matter of the Millennium Dome to the prime minister.
In the course of an entertaining but damning critique of the way Mr Blair has run the country, the former cabinet secretary Lord Butler said the new Labour administration failed to take collective decisions from the start.

Diversity is their strength in New York too, apparently.
Well, not exactly. A diverse woman pickpockets the victim of a crash who is pinned under a truck, dying.
The diverse crowd cheer her on.
No doubt the BBC will report this sickening crime as soon as they can fly their crack team of reporters out to NY.

Wednesday’s BBC local news ended with PR as news for a new BBC Wales programme about the Hull rugby player Clive Sullivan
black presenter “few people in Wales know that price Sullivan was the first black rugby player”
.. that’s strange because everyone in Hull knows that
the advertorial it was about 3 minutes long
At least he got his own way!
There were a lot of black players in Wales before Pit Head Baths were brought into use in taffland’s coal mines.
Rarely do I switch off Nigel, but I have tonight. Bitcoins. Might well be the way forward for the future of our 6 month old babies, but not in my lifetime. I shall still use cheques til the day I die Lol !
Same here Brissles. Boring.
Tip. If you haven’t tried it I think you’ll like Boom radio.
It’s all stuff from our time, 60’s and thereabouts.
Decent and knowledgeable DJs
Each song that comes on is like a mini quiz where I try to remember who it was and the year it was out. It’s good for the brain.
It’s on dab radio. Just rescan and it will show up in your list of stations then add it to a preset.
I’ve been listening to Boom for nearly a year now and it’s great music with fewer adverts than most. Love it.
Try Sunshine Radio OnLine too. Few adverts, no news, no travel, no sport. Available on Alexa, etc. “Bring me Sunshine Radio Online”.
Yes, I discovered the bottom-of-the-garden-DJs-in-their-sheds BOOM radio at the beginning of the year. SOOOOOO GOOOOOD !
Seeing as the BBC loves the EU so much, I just wonder why they did not report this EU press conference:
The EU MEPs shown are absolute heroes. I never thought I would give the MEPs such praise but in this case it is IMHO well deserved. The MEPs are spitting tacks about the lack of answers by big pharma about their covid so called vaccines.
Sorry – BBC ru paul drag race uk is on …

Not much to choose between CNN/MSNBC and the BBC
– most Brits are unaware of how predictably skewed the trash emanating from the BBC, Sky and ITV is – but they are now so over-egging things that question marks are appearing in many more people’s minds when they see / hear the self evident craziness and often internally contradicted stuff that’s being pumped.

“Jamaica bans music and TV glorifying crime”

Met Police Chief Calls On YouTube To Take Down Drill Music To Curb Gang Crime
18 May 2018, 09:17 | Updated: 18 May 2018, 09:56
Jamaica’s broadcasting authority has banned content that “glorifies illegal activity” – such as drug and gun use.
The new rules cover TV and radio – including music – and list specific topics that are off-limits.
Scamming, drug abuse and the illegal use of firearms cannot be “promoted” – and swearing or “near-sounding” replacements are also banned.
….
When Jamaica gained independence in 1962, the murder rate was 3.9 per 100,000 inhabitants, one of the lowest in the world. In 2005, Jamaica had 1,674 murders, for a murder rate of 58 per 100,000 people, the highest murder rate in the world.
Sharing is caring.
For those still believing in the Blue Labour Tories I wonder how much support you will retain when you hear the Tories are planning to raise the retirement age yet again, this time to 69 years old, and as they have found this method of kicking the can down the road on paying a state pension, and no doubt they will keep on increasing the retirement age, just in the same way they have carried on increasing immigration.

Thoughtful – thank for that – I was musing about the coming election – if people are unable to vote for the blue brand – and could not vote for the red brand – with the greens and yellows basically loons – do they just stay at home and enable a massive win by kidult red brand types ?
An election won on a 30% turnout – with a massive red brand majority … Angee for PM …. Corbyn as chancellor – so no change ….
Increasing the pension age is a guaranteed way of losing a few more seats …
Safe, I feel to say that this is “not going to end well” for Ms Cheney and the present cabal of senior Democrats.

They now have less than a month to the mid terms,and I wonder how many of them will still be there after 10th November.
As an aside we now know from MBS in Saudi, Biden was so incredibly corrupt he asked (begged) that Saudi and OPEC kept up oil production until November 10th to assist his party at the midterms, after that they could do as they pleased!
Thoughtful
Joe couldn’t bully / threaten the Saudis…
– further humiliation down the line
Now fun ‘n games with Turkey + Russia and gas….
tomo
Why?
Russia just offered Turkey to become the alternate supply route for gas to Europe.
Erdogan will just leap at that.
The Saudis just told Biden to farkorrf when he asked for more oil – quite simply:
JB : can you increase production ?
MBS: Nope … byeee!
and somebody just blew up two Turkish pipelines in two days…
They fill the commitee with 7 Democrats and the 2 most anti-Trump Republicans.
This is banana republic stuff. It’s a clear political witch hunt and a complete farce. I expect to see this kind of corruption in Africa or some 3rd world Asian country. Not the USA.
It’s only useful purpose is to draw those out who are dishonest and hypocritical enough to endsorse it so we can see them clearly in plain sight.
The BBC and Guardian are two such entities.
I just watched Viva Frei elaborate what went on in a Connecticut courtroom with Alex Jones. It cannot by any measure be described honestly as a trial – whatever it was (vocabulary and thesaurus fail) it is extraordinary in the true sense of that word.
It is (imho) easily as bizarre as the trial of Pope Formosus (and that’s stretching bizarre) – jurisprudence be damned – a shameless attack, not even bending the law – just pulling stuff out of their arses and arbitrarily trampling a vast raft of proper process and denying the accused man any – and really, any opportunity to respond or challenge his accusers. Accusing Jones of doing things that he self evidently couldn’t have done and declaring him “guilty” without reference to the jury.
To call it a low point in American legal antics is about as close in everyday language as I can get to describe it.
It is something I feel – of a dry run for what some actors feel they can foist on Trump. The players are gauging public reaction … what can they get away with?
I am not a fan of Jones’ performative style and do not endorse all his analysis – travesty + perversion is what happened there.
– if it happens to AJ then it can (and likely will) happen to others.
This is dark stuff – scarcely believable and directly aimed imho at Donald Trump.
strange days
I used to wonder how people could be so stupid to fall for it.
But now I realise, they don’t. They agree with it. So they are quite prepared to forgoe any honesty and integrity to go along with it -because for the Left, ‘The ends justify the means’.
When this involves both the Government and the mainstream media (who are supposed to be their ‘check and balance’), it means that society has become absolutely rotten.
I think the USA is demonstrating where democracy and capitalism are inevitably bound to end up : corporatism and corruption. Maybe every civilised society will always and up this way due to human nature and is why all the great Empires died out.
It remains to be seen if the Democrats and their mates follow through.
Prominent dissenters and critics of the present US regime are being attacked via their financial arrangements as well as the courts – the blob is straining to exert control.
We don’t get to ignore the consequences of whats happening across the pond.
National Television Awards 2022: The best red carpet images

6 out of 10 of the first photos are of black people thus again proving the UK population is mostly black.
I bet Ricky Gervais hates being there.
Admittedly, ‘over 50’ is a broad spread.
“A genuine sketch from the BBC that will never be repeated ever again…”

The dirty tricks campaign by the desperate Democrats just before the mid-term elections is in full swing:
January 6 panel votes to issue subpoena for Trump testimony
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-63251303
This must the most partisan political farce in history. It’s just so over-the-top, it’s ridiculous.
Now we have the Democrats at their dirty best. Trump supoenaed and a new, very heavily edited video of Pelosi which is so convenient, I think it might just be fake.
In it she says ‘The said that somebody has been shot, it’s just horrendous’. Then the shooting is not mentioned again. And she states quite specifically that the whole thing has been instigated by the President of the United States. Twice. How could she be so sure to make such statements at that time ?.
As usual, it’s fully endorsed by the ‘unbiased’ BBC who hate Trump with a passion.
Lets hope for the sake of the USA these scumbags are routed next month.
JohnC
Judging by the way the democrats now own the Department of Justice they’ll charge president trump with some sort of `treason offence after their corrupt raid on his home .
This will be done in the week leading to the November elections – with live coverage of the FBI arresting and handcuffing the president on nationwide peak time TV . .
The first court appearance – in Democrat infested New York will take place a day or two before the elections with a grandstanding prosecutor and Democrat Judge .
The banana Republic lives …..
… same as how the announcement for the first COVID vaccine was held until AFTER the last election.
What bothers me the most of all is how obvious it is yet the mainstream media do not go anywhere near it. They are an absolute disgrace. It’s African tinpot 3rd world dictatorship stuff.
As per the Viva Frei piece linked above – “banana republic” hardly covers what’s going on with the partisan abuse of the US legal system.
The antics of the judge and prosecution lawyers in the AJ trial(s) is just beyond anything I’ve seen in banana republics and I repeat… it’s a dry run to test public reaction to their intended tactics.
That public reaction will be measured and analysed by CNN, MSNBC et al – what could possibly go wrong?

BBC enjoying the long self destruction journey of what was formerly the Conservative Party. The outgoing chancellor is on the journey back to the UK from the US early – hiding isn’t an option .
Quite rightly pressure is on truss – fueled of course – by the BBC . The long term aim being to get an approved regime to start to take us back into the EU – if we ever left .
Farage – last night – suggested rejoining the single market will be the first stage – with Starmer as PM he can claim his pledge not to rejoin the EU will be maintained although in reality we ll be on the way to it again .
And that’s where the UK ends – the SNP get their independence vote – maybe one in Northern Ireland too and ‘great ‘ Britain is no more – although ‘some’( me ) think Britain stopped being “great ‘ long ago …. When the third world washed up ….

The documentary will examine child protection . That’s when I laughed …. will paki Muslim Paedo racist rape gangs get their mention ? Or will the BBC conspiracy to ‘not harm race relations’ be maintained ?
I bet I know the answer …
Tories plot Sunak and Mordaunt leadership (Times); Starmer’s purge. Labour Left complains that leader is tightening the screw (‘i’)
If there’s one thing both these unnamed Tory MPs and Sir Keir Starmer are in full agreement about (in fact there’s more, but this will be the main one…) then it’s a secret, yet sincerely heartfelt wish they could completely do away with their respective party memberships.
Modern managerial politics is no place for ideas, ideology or philosophy. Least of all conservative ones. Just as corporations take ever more notice of Karen in the HR department, so MPs prefer the approval and easy ride from the likes of Nick Robinson to an argument and a rough ride.

I’ve seen the movie Lawrence of Arabia – all three hours of it – and my take would be that it’s not so much the homosexuality that seems to upset the arabs – it’s more the constantly banging on about it.
The Telegraph looks to foreign affairs: UK rebukes Macron for ruling out Russia nuclear strike… ‘We don’t want to talk about it publicly because one of the principles of deterrence is you don’t reveal your hand’

Hello Fedup2
Remember when Syria was falling apart daily and the bBC news constant reporting.. that was again mentioned the other day on the beeb
Thought by now the way the bBC used to report constantly that the regime would have fallen, but guess just over sensualised reports
All the tory, “Men in suits”, the ‘old school’ are now hiding in the shadows leaving the ‘boy scouts’ they spawned to deal with the problems. They know that Truss is ‘all Trussed up’ and will carry the can of massively failed policies of ‘money printing’ over the past decades. National Debt? Roughly 2.5£ Trillion and rising like a back passage thermometer. World markets, hitherto believing that UK Governing was in ‘safe hands’ now recognise the absolute fragility of printing money. As always, eventually pigeons come home to roost.
The UK has run out of road, that’s the undermining problem people don’t like to discuss because it is indicative of the gross mismanagement of UK Governments to date.

Maybe the nail in the coffin will be the next interest rate announcement – ( November 3 ?) which seems to be predicted ( again ) to be 0.75% or maybe even 1.0% …. Still too little – too late …
If the blue Labour Party had been a bit ‘canny ‘ it might have avoided direct responsibility for rising mortgages …
But by its own conduct it is now tied to all those sob stories of people unable to get ‘on the housing ladder ‘… maybe MIRAS will make a come back ….?

Absolutely Fed,
All Trussed Up’s Rock & a Hardplace. Combat inflation? dramatically raise interest rates thus bankrupting many property owners and killing those living on massive credit. Bills eventually have to be paid. Time is now. The penalty for artificially suppressing interest rates over the recent decade and more. If not, at least to appease the international investors, how else can ATU demonstrate fiscal prowess (not!)? Erdogan and his 3 reductions in interest rates to act differently to combat inflation?
How well did that work? Currently 83% and still rising and the funny part is,
“….Erdogan promises more interest rate cuts”.

Turns out the BBC NorthAmerica Demwitcast ‘what they meant to say’ with Saz and Lurch runs to several episodes.
I don’t know about that story that’s a reaction to a US Democrat politician using close-captioning to understand what an interviewer was saying.
Thus prompting speculation that he’s having brain difficulties.
but do see that someone quoted what Theodore Dalrymple the British psychiatrist said about Soviet propaganda
“The purpose of propaganda is not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to HUMILIATE;
and therefore, the less it corresponds to reality the better.
When people are forced to remain silent
when they are being told the most obvious lies,
or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves,
they lose once and for all their sense of probity.
To assent to obvious lies is in some small way to become evil oneself.
One’s standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed.
A society of emasculated liars is easy to control.”
Edited quote.
About a fifth scrolling down the BBC News website a new pop up box appeared by a new button saying “Change your nation. We are bringing you stories from England”.

Our local BBC news prog’s tweets make it look like they have a woke activist in their Twitter team.
However such agenda pushing tweets mostly gather almost no reaction, usually 1 or zero Likes etc.
This last week they’ve done 3 tweets promoting Black History Month artwork

They also did a video tweet promoting the black hairdressing salon in Grimsby that won an award from a black judge for doing black hairstyles.

The pond is shallow ….
Nadhim Zahawi: Already a good day for Zahawi, whose tenure as interim Chancellor over the summer has outlasted that of Kwasi Kwarteng’s. Recent Treasury experience is a plus, albeit under a different permanent secretary.
Simon Clarke: A key and prominent supporter of Liz. Chief Secretary to the Treasury under Rishi, though with some major disagreements with the former Chancellor reported during his time there. A very likely candidate.
Sajid Javid: Again, previous experience though even during his short time at the Treasury he didn’t show much promise of breaking free of Treasury orthodoxy. Steven Swinford reports it’s not going to be him.
Jeremy Hunt: The centrist, ‘party unity’ candidate that may placate backbench opponents. Would be an admission that the Truss economic programme is DOA. Currently out of the country.
Rishi Sunak: Stranger things have happened over the past 40 days.
Chris Philp: The current chief secretary to the treasury, a role with a decent track record of stepping in to replace unexpectedly departing chancellors. Would need some lessons on tweeting about the value of the pound.
Steve Barclay: Widely reported to have been Rishi’s choice for Chancellor had he won the leadership contest.
Alan Mak: Treasury minister from July to September. The best candidate to reverse Liz’s fortunes and lead Britain into a new golden age of economic growth.

You should have voted for UKIP, The Brexit and or The Reform Party .
The present Tories are Liberal woke, rejoiners in disguise.
We are in a mess now partly because of the way the Tories got us partly in/out six years ago!
Next ? they will try to nudge us back in to the EU

I fear that the noose has tightened around us. The Globalists, the EU, and others who are anti-nationalist have had a good day.
We needed a radical change but Truss and the ‘conservative’ liberals (fearful for their seats) capitulated at the first hurdle. Prepare for a long lingering decline of the UK, back on the road we have been on for such a long time of low productivity, low skills, open boarders, and more socialist policies ‘enjoyed’ by the many but not for the few.
The best I can hope for is a complete collapse of Tory support resulting in a Labour government accelerating our socio-economic decline, and a backlash by the electorate who will see no other option than to eventually vote for real pro-UK right-wing parties.
The main worry is that more migrants, youths (lower voting age brought in), and media (BBC in the main), will be pulling in the socialist direction to keep labour afloat no matter what.
I hope I am very wrong.
Sorry mouse but this is just not true. Truss made a monumental error when she agreed an unlimited subsidy on domestic users energy costs, then she exacerbated that with tax cuts making the situation simply untenable.
If she hadn’t been forced to back down the UK economy, currency and its banking would have collapsed. That’s not conservative, that is reckless insanity
On top of that her reckless plan included bringing in another 200000 migrants per anum to prop up the insanity of a ponsi scheme which was simply ridiculous.
She would have been better to offer a subsidy for the first quota of gas and then added a tax onto the full cost of extra units to pay for the subsidy allowing people some heat whilst those who wanted more were able to do so in a market with limited supply.
Margaret Thatcher put in the ground work of cutting costs and government spending before tax cuts. Truss didn’t want to do the hard work and thought it was easy peasy. Now she knows different.
T, you are so gullible! It was obvious that Boris Johnson was ‘set up’ and the BBC appear to have been dwelling on the possible removal of Liz Truss as well. Only Kuenssberg is absent from the equation this time. Phil Hammond, during his contribution to TWatO, let slip a reference to something like “our friends in nearby nations” or “our friends in adjacent countries”.
Pretty obvious what it is all about.
“On top of that her reckless plan included bringing in another 200000 migrants per anum to prop up the insanity of a ponsi scheme which was simply ridiculous”
and yet thats the one bit that doesnt appear to have had a u-turn
Thoughtful,
I value your argument though I will agree to differ. Truss did not need to capitulate in the way she did. It would have been so much wiser to have rowed back a little on tax cuts (just enough to achieve some appeasement), kept Kwarteng and doubled up on the argument of correctly moving towards lowering taxation (particularly on new investment, tech and high tech, highly paid job creating companies). If we continue to flood the country with the third world we will become the third world. We are going to hit some tough years and we will at best just prolong the decline unless we as a country are prepared to make the tough decisions now. A low skill, low tech economy for the size of a country such as the UK is not a viable future. The markets will abandon us when the time comes.
Anyone else heard about the attack on the Turkish pipeline which happened yesterday? There appears to be precious little on UK media about it:
https://www.middleeasteye.net/fr/news/second-oil-pipeline-blown-east-turkey-two-days-744208490
This isn’t just one pipeline, it’s the second one in two days!
Then there is this:
https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/russia-says-several-arrested-foiled-attack-turkstream-pipeline-interfax-2022-10-13/
Which is apparantly the work of the PKK Kurdish guerillas.
More disruption to global oil supplies, but very little reported, and who was it who put them up to carrying out these attacks at this particular time because as far as I can tell they haven’t attacked these pipelines before now.
I see Alpha bien pensent thought leader “Sir” Simon Jenkins of The Guardian has opined about the Alex Jones trials.
Seems the putrid git thinks the same methods used to nail AJ should be used on :
Seems likely that some BBC web monkeys and maybe a Zurcher or several will jump on the bandwagon over the weekend.
– oh, and Jenkins also hints I think that it would be OK to use the same tactics to attack Twump.
“Basket of deplorables” is a phrase from a 2016 presidential election campaign speech delivered by Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton on September 9, 2016, at a campaign fundraising event, which she used to describe half of the supporters of her opponent, Republican nominee Donald Trump, saying “They’re racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamophobic”.[1] The next day, she expressed regret for “saying half”, while insisting that Trump had deplorably amplified “hateful views and voices”.
MM, became a badge of honour that did: ‘Deplorable’. 🙂
