Relationships outside of marriage
Any intimacy in public between men and women (including between teenagers) can lead to arrest.
Living together whilst unmarried is prohibited in Qatar, and sex outside of marriage, regardless of whether this is same sex couples or opposite sex couples, is illegal. This can lead to arrest and a potential court case where the judgement can include a fine, a custodial sentence and deportation once the sentence is complete. This is especially so where the behaviour has caused offence. See Local laws and customs page.

The largest property in their collection is Manor House, a 19th-century, heritage-listed two-story countryside mansion in the village of Kirby Sigston in north Yorkshire, which they purchased in July 2015 for $2.3 million. The couple is reportedly spending $450,000 to install a leisure center with a 40-foot swimming pool, a gym and an outdoor tennis court. In London, their main residence is at 16 Hesper Mews in upscale Kensington, a four-bedroom terraced house which they acquired for $7.1 million in 2010. Sunak also owns an apartment on Old Brompton Road in nearby south Kensington, which he bought for about $300,000 in September 2001. In California—where Sunak and Murthy met as students at Stanford’s Graduate School of Business—they reportedly own an oceanfront penthouse at 1705 Ocean Ave. in Santa Monica, valued at $7.5 million.

Since we are speaking about abortion costs in Qatar in this post, the cost may come to you in the form of legal punishment. Abortion in Qatar is illegal and punishable by law. Any woman and her helper(s) are liable for a legal punishment if they are found to be involved in illegal pregnancy termination.

There is a considerable Brexit Dividend to be had from Public Sector Procurement now that EU rules no longer need apply.
While working in the p sector after 30 years in the private sector I asked major suppliers what the EU procurement process was costing….not one of them flinched in admitting an absolute minimum
of 10 % was achievable in terms of cost reduction.
I haven’t seen a single example where a public sector body has
claimed a reduction or cost saving due to Brexit.
But will confess there may be some.
But there again the entire Public sector is about spending not saving.
Any cost reduction programme in this sector needs to be externally managed.
The fiefdoms that control them will erect barriers.
Imagine if they were given bonuses for saving money – starting with the NHS and MOD ….
The most useless Tory of all Foggy Moggy, supposed minister of Brexit opportunity appears to have done absolutely nothing in his time as minister, not one single thing positive has come out of it.

TWatO Watch #1 – word has obviously gone out among the LibbyLeftMob ….
… Suella Braverman was not sacked, she resigned because she realised she had broken the Ministerial Code. In the usual run of things, the BBC and the Labour Party and all other members of the LibbyLeftMob would praise that ‘as the honourable thing to do’. But no, not with a new Conservative PM heading the Government and leading the country. It is something with which to attack M/s Braverman and the PM.
The change of language from TOADY to TWatO and PMQs was interesting, though.
Same narrative as always: someone resigns, gets sacked – whatever – 5 minutes later they’re miraculously back.
We’re told it’s time to “move on”.

Thee bbc are trying to tiptoe around a statement made by James Cleverly advising lgbt-doh-ray-me football supporters to tone it down a little when in Qatar. This is a tough one as it features two “untouchable” groups, namely p4kis and p0ffs. They have decided to mention that the latter group are up in arms and, as you would suspect, play the “yooman rights” card. I have some advice for them. If you want to stick it where the sun don’t shine on the beach, in the pool, in the middle of the pitch during a match, then you go right ahead. You are old enough to make your own decisions and take responsibility for them. If you get into trouble you’ll have to be quick with your appeal and calls to the UK government though, (AKA playing the “Zagari-Ratcliffe” defence) as you’ll be swinging from a crane within a week.
ITV local newsPR is doing the same item the BBC did a few days ago

“That’s right I’ll be involved in the famous penguin count…”

AFAIK there is no great concern with Antarctica
most was getting colder.
but most activists rush on to talk about one peninsula
that’s different cos an underwater volcano has warmed some seawater etc.

Why is it always the Left which stoops to disgusting abusive language? asks CAROLE MALONE
__________________________________
Just where does Gary Neville get off calling the Tories ” a cancer to the UK”? And why hasn’t the weasel Starmer suspended him from the Party for this kind of incendiary talk? Because at best it encourages and incites abuse against the Tories. And at worst it incites violence against them.
It’s precisely why at the recent Tory Party conference Lefty activists felt justified in screaming at, spitting at, harassing and intimidating Tory party delegates as they walked into conference. It was the most appalling display of yobbery which happened with police looking on. But, of course, vile abusive language is what we’ve come to expect from inside the Labour Party. Look at its appalling record on antisemitism. Look at members and MP’s who have been suspended, reprimanded or made to apologise for racist, sexist and antisemitic comments.
So he [rightly] wants this country to behave properly in regard to women. But he’s not so worried about what his paymasters in Qatar are doing to them.
Neville has vowed to shine a light on human rights issues while working in Qatar. What like when he was interviewing his pal, David Beckham, and failed to shine a light on the fact Golden Balls had signed a multi-million deal with Qatar where homosexuality is illegal and women have to ask permission to marry, travel or get an education?
That was a chance to shine a light on what’s happening there but he didn’t even mention it in the interview.
When asked why not he said: “I just wouldn’t ask him about human rights in Qatar.”
So what kind of principles are those then
If Starmer has any sense – and we know that isn’t necessarily a given – he should suspend Neville from the Party or at the very least tell him to button it.
But we know from experience – he won’t. And that kind of weasliness is exactly why there is still so much toxicity in Labour’s ranks.

A story telling us that the government (I.E. taxpayers) are forking out £7m a day for hotels for asylum seekers.
But strangely, considering their willingness with anything and everything about the Tory failings, the BBC cannot bring themselves to run a Have Your Say on the above story.
I wonder why not?,
Sluff, the £7m a day figure for hotels for so called asylum seekers is just the tip of the iceberg. Last year I submitted a FOI request for the total cost of dealing with these illegals to include Border Force operations in the Channel, payments to the RNLI, weekly pocket money, etc and the Home Office refused to deal with the request on the grounds that it was outside the cost limits specified in the legislation to gather the data. I appealed and received the same reply. Does this mean that the Home Office don’t know the true cost or are they just trying to hide the truth from the taxpayer?
BBC are full on climate change today. The BBC 1 weather forecast opens with the line, “you don’t have to look very far to see the signs of climate change” because it is warmer than average tomorrow.
Perhaps if they did look a bit further they may realise that one warm day is not in fact proof of climate change but that wouldn’t suit their narrative.
I’ve seen this Home Office video – “Enough – How We Can All Tackle Violence Against Women and Girls” – two or three times in the telly ad breaks today.
Of course, all the transgressors are white men. The black guy is a positive role model – in common with every other advert.

“How Domestic Violence Varies by Ethnicity
Overview
Even with low reporting, though, the number of women of color who are impacted by domestic violence is shockingly high. In fact, according to the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey, approximately four out of 10 non-Hispanic Black women, American Indian, or Alaskan Native women, and one in two multi-racial non-Hispanic women have been a victim of physical violence, rape, and/or stalking by a partner in their lifetime.
This rate is 30 to 50% higher than what is experienced by White non-Hispanic, Hispanic, and Asian women.”

Meanwhile……
” Republican Sens. Chuck Grassley of Iowa and Ron Johnson of Wisconsin are sharing with the U.S. attorney leading the criminal investigation into Hunter Biden more than 200 pages of bank records related to his and the Biden family’s alleged “connections to the Chinese regime and persons connected to its military and intelligence elements”.
Fox News Digital independently reviewed the bank records Grassley and Johnson obtained throughout the course of their investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings. The more than 200 pages of records come from Cathay Bank, the oldest operating bank in the U.S. founded by Chinese Americans.
Grassley and Johnson obtained the records from a U.S. bank in the course of their investigation into Hunter Biden’s business dealings. The records reveal transactions between Hunter Biden-linked business entities and Chinese energy firm CEFC, which reportedly had ties to the Chinese Communist Party.
Some of those transactions were previously revealed in Grassley and Johnson’s 2020 reports, which they say showed that the Biden family’s “extensive links to foreign governments and questionable foreign nationals posed counterintelligence and extortion concerns.”
Grassley and Johnson have been sounding the alarm on these business transactions with Chinese-linked associates CEFC Chairman Ye Jiangming and Gongwen Dong, which “resulted in millions of dollars in questionable transactions.”
In a letter Grassley and Johnson wrote to U.S. Attorney for Delaware David Weiss, exclusively obtained by Fox News, the GOP senators notified him of the hundreds of pages of records, and slammed him and the Justice Department for ignoring their attempts to ensure that the criminal probe into Hunter Biden is “thorough and free from political interference.
federal investigators are weighing whether to charge Hunter Biden with various tax and foreign lobbying violations, false statements and more. ”

“One student, named as Adam, was a college student whose attendance had fallen to 18%, in part because he could not afford basic hygiene products, and whose grades were suffering as a result.
His support worker approached Hygiene Bank in the summer of 2020 and they were able to provide deodorant and shampoo. Adam’s attendance rose to 100%, and he is now attending university.”
Adam can barely afford the £46 monthly phone bill for his IPhone or £275 for third generation Airpods.

Study investigates hygiene poverty
The struggles many of us are facing due to the cost-of-living crisis have been well documented. People have been sharing their stories and others have been offering ways to try to help. There have been various warnings, and a new report has revealed more about what is known as hygiene poverty. “By the time you’re not switching on your heating or you’re going to a food bank for food essentials, you’ve stopped buying essential hygiene products weeks before,” says Ruth Brock, Hygiene Bank chief executive. The study found being unable to afford essential products like toothpaste, shampoo, soap and deodorant has left some people too ashamed to go to work. Read more here.

‘I fell pregnant on a banned contraceptive pill’
When Susan Wamaitha started feeling sick a year ago, she thought it was the side effects of a contraceptive pill she had started taking a few months earlier – but it turned out that she was eight weeks pregnant. The 32 year old is now a mother of three children. Unbeknown to her, the pill that she began using in June 2021 was banned in Kenya.
Its street name in Kenya is “Sofia” but it is manufactured in China and all the details about the product on the packaging are written in Chinese. A translation of the first line says it contains “Levonorgestrel Fast Tablets”. The sale of the pill was prohibited by Kenya’s authorities 10 years ago because of high levels of levonorgestrel – more than 40 times the recommended levels.

The BBC is advertising a short series next week reporting on potential voting problems in the coming US elections . Can you predict the narrative ?< yes it will be nasty Republican Trump supporters trying to fix votes . And that those lovely Democrats – always fair – are gonna be victims ….
…. Talking of victims – the Pennsylvania vote which tucker Carlson focused on – will be a test . Apparently the gimp democrat – who is so brain damaged by a stroke that he needs subtitles – ‘crashed ‘ in a live one hour debate a couple of days ago …
Bet he wins though ( I might sound unsympathetic but surely you need someone fully brained to represent voters not someone brain damaged – even if rich ( see Biden ))
There was a program yesterday about how people are reacting to the ‘cost of covid crisis ‘. This ranged from a lady who doesn’t boil her kettle beyond the ‘boil’ to a chap whose dining out every evening being cut to only a few times a week ….he also now doesn’t do his own ironing . He thinks paying a lady £25 a week to do it is ‘cheaper ‘….
Underlying narrative was ‘nasty blue labour ‘ – and it’s all their fault … but as we know – some of it is – but the whole political /medical class has responsibility ….
Today
Looks like the BBC is campaigning to have the illegals arriving on the south coast not getting nice treatment . Me ? I think they are lucky not to get thrown into the sea into the middle of the Channel – which might start to deter them from investing in the trip .

Yes, the relentless pecking and condemnation has already started. Doesn’t help to put jelly-livered MP’s up for interview by our Marxist State Broadcaster. Those who lack any ability to practice repartee, that in the same vein as the interviewers efforts to demolish.
I was musing earlier on the skills and thought processes the BBC employ in their well crafted propaganda, ‘News Broadcasts’. A re-phrase here, just a touch-up there to change the emphasis. They are the Worlds Masters at manipulating propaganda. The WEF/China/Soros are no doubt so pleased.

One of many campaigns brought to you by the bBC
So glad I dont pay the tele tax for this rubbish to be promoted often
BBC applying the same method to undermine Rashid soonik and braverperson by the ‘breach of ministerial code’ swamp thing …
They are running this for the second day running – pure swamp stuff .
I’d rather hear about how the UK gas supply is holding up ?
( no one cares at the moment because it’s a bit mild ) but there is always the ‘tradition ‘ that we land up paying for good weather ….
Back to the swamp ….will it be –
1 gay Tory touching up some chap
2 Tory takes bung
3 Tory says nasty racist thing about rashid
4 failure to declare income
5 one of rashids’ relatives does bad thing
Same old same old
You should watch the above video, because the allegations contained in that are far more serious, but I don’t expect the BBC to be airing them.
Europe including Germany state that their gas storage capacity is now full and they are prepared for the Winter, but the big question not being asked is where that gas came from?
We know that it didn’t come from Qatar, or Norway, nor the USA or any of the other European countries reaching capacity and passing it on to Germany.
And then there are the mysterious billions which have appeared in the Turkish state banks and yes you guessed it. Like an old drug addict the German loons have gone back to their old dealer Russia and been supplied with their gas via Turkey, allowing in the process another malefactor to gain leverage over them and by extension the EU.
Not that you will see any of this in the British or European media. It will all be quiety ignored, and you won’t even hear about the dangers the Russo Turkish alliance poses, nor the stupidity of the German Political elite and the credulous easily led people of Germany.
Thoughtful
I bet India has plenty of discounted Russian gas available for export – business is business – need is need …

BBC today program reported as having lost 500 000 listeners in a year other programs heading in the same direction too.
Comments… could not get funnier.
On a less hilarious note, this is classic bbc.
Idiot #prasnews picked up by cubicle garden diversity droid and then copy pasted as ‘news’.

How Britain fell “Don’t worry ’bout it” edition
Last week our press were apparently concerned what the wider world thought of us: ‘Something resembling hell’: how does the rest of the world view the UK? (Guardian) – ah, but I cheated with that headline… it wasn’t one from last week, instead it was dated August 2019 and the Gruan article goes on: Three years after the referendum, and hovering on the brink of a no-deal Brexit, international journalists share their thoughts – and of course it wasn’t so much the no deal but the referendum itself, or rather the outcome, that really irked.
“Are they talking about us?” was that old Fleet Street man’s mantra when reviewing the foreign press.
Yesterday, as amusing, casually racist, memes kept popping up on my mobile including Larry the Downing Street cat wearing a turban and the windows of Number 10 lit up and rocking within to the sound of what should perhaps bring a smile to our Italian friends who might term it a bangra-bangra party…
The memes weren’t entirely kidding. Our own formerly patriotic Times presents frontpage a large pic of: Rishi Sunak at No 10 for a Diwali celebration
That’s one in the eye for our traditional Guy Fawkes. Another of our peculiar ancient national customs now no more than a rare damp squib. Gone out with not so much a bang as a whimper. On that seasonal theme the Guardian gloats: How Britain fell for Halloween – oh, how Britain fell…
I’m guessing the French now see us as a nation of corner shop keepers? Of course our european neighbours are not really out to curry favour with us.
Small boats bring 10,000 Albanian men to UK (Times) – thank you Schengen.
Regarding Rishi as a bit of a Mr Spock from Star Trek lookalike one can’t help but recall Doctor Leonard McCoy’s choice line: “It’s worse than that, he’s dead Jim”
Whether or not our old notion of Britain shows any life signs at all these days is moot. The Daily Mail certainly reckons it’s worse than does the Times: New report reveals 38,000 migrants crossed the Channel this year – 12,000 from Albania alone ++ £7m-a-day bill to house arrivals in hotels
Looking at those numbers and being a bit of a WW1 history buff one recalls how Britain wrangled with Germany over the release of our respective civilian internees. The Kaiser held a few British tourists who lingered too long in the summer of 1914, whilst we netted thousands of merchant sailors, restaurant waiters, German brass bandsmen, etc. The Germans offered a full exchange of civilian prisoners but Britain did the maths and calculated our enemies would gain enough manpower for a full army division, whilst we would hardly net enough men for a battalion. Makes you think, no?
Rent your home to migrants… Homeowners are being offered lucrative deals to house illegal migrants (The Sun)
Which tends to remind us of our lovable (literally in some celebrated tabloid cases) Ukrainian refugees (mostly women of nubile age if the red tops are to be believed) and brings us to a surprising and extraordinary veritable surfeit of white faces on the frontpage of the Daily Mirror: United front: Ukrainian heroes at the Mirror’s Pride of Britain awards last night
The Labour-supporting Mirror is in self-celebratory mood: Mirror wins newspaper of the year
Daily Mirror wins 3 gongs at Press Awards including Scoop of Year for Cummings exposé… – sorry, tricked you again, that was July 2021
Let’s bring this up to date and just slightly rephrase that former headline: Daily Mirror crowned Daily Newspaper of the Year after hat-trick of top press awards…
Judges praised our coverage of the ‘Partygate’ scandal, our ground-breaking series on disability in the UK which was edited and written exclusively by people with disabilities, and our cost-of-living coverage – including work to expose soaring executive pay
Talking of a surprising and extarordinary veritable surfeit of white faces… snapped at the London Press Club we see a pic of the Mirror staff line up: Daily Mirror’s Michael Rye, Paul Cockerton, Alison Phillips, Clare Fitzsimons, Tom Carlin, Pippa Crerar, Jason Beattie and Andy Whitaker – tribunes of the horny-handed workers and celebrants of diversity.
That award seems to have the Mirror’s name on it…
Named after former Mirror Group chairman Hugh Cudlipp, the prize celebrates the country’s best investigative and campaigning journalism.
Partygate resulted in Johnson becoming the first serving Prime Minister to be issued with a police fine and played a pivotal role in his subsequent departure from office.
But wasn’t Rishi also there at that celebrated Lockdown party?
What controversies has Rishi Sunak been involved in? New PM not immune to scrapes with notoriety during time in government (Independent)
Rishi Sunak’s partygate fine is personally wounding for a chancellor who finds himself in a funk (Sky News) – this report explains the quandary of his not being able to resign as chancellor because his US Green Card had expired and so he couldn’t bugger off to the States to continue his lucrative corporate financial career instead.
“Don’t worry ’bout it” – was something of an Italian gangster catchphrase in many of those Martin Scorsese movies…
Rishi Sunak ‘unlikely to appear’ before Commons partygate inquiry… PM may avoid scrutiny, despite saying he is willing to co-operate with panel investigating Boris Johnson’s conduct (Telegraph)
A February 2008 Freedom of Information Act request for the release of details of MPs’ expenses claims was allowed by an Information Tribunal but challenged by the House of Commons Authorities on the grounds that it was “unlawfully intrusive”.

Tiresome really isn’t it ? The mirror will spend the next year digging into rashid and wife and then bang on with the BBC / guardian to bring down The First Coloured South Asian Millionaire ex Goldman Sacks PM ….
