The old tweets paint a happy situation then quiet for 2 years
Then July 26th BBC saying inquiry going on
Aug 1 fire
Now results of inquiry.
Since the unit is small , only 25 beds, it does make sense for it to be mixed sex, especially since staff are supposed to be awake monitoring it at all times.
STARTS
The BBC made its first broadcast 100 years ago yesterday. This was celebrated with due ceremony on the Today programme. It was all very jolly, although the opening news broadcast of the morning promoted Private Pike of Dad’s Army to the rank of captain, an error which must have had the late Arthur Lowe (Captain Mainwaring) turning in his grave.
I was honoured to appear as the one party pooper, pointing out that the BBC licence fee is a) an unfair privilege and b) obsolescent because of technology.
As one who has enjoyed so many BBC productions, I did feel a bit churlish.
I can vividly remember, aged 11, watching the very first opening credits of Dad’s Army with the swastika being repulsed from the English Channel by the Union flag and recognising that this one was going to be a winner. On our staircase at home stood (and still stands) a pike used in the Irish Rebellion of 1798, which had briefly done service in our village Home Guard in 1940. The programme completely understood the inherent comedy of the diverse nation it depicted as well as anyone since Shakespeare in Henry V. Yes, the BBC could do amazing things.
But I must not surrender to nostalgia, because in the BBC’s beginning is its end. Although it was established in 1922, its key date is 1926. It was then, under its general manager, John Reith, that it ceased to be the private-sector British Broadcasting Company and became the British Broadcasting Corporation with a royal charter – with Reith as its first director general. Ever since, it has been the poll tax-funded, privileged autocrat of our cultural life.
The life of Reith suggests that he was virtually mad, but also a genius (the two things being traditionally near-allied). “He seems to talk as if he were in charge of national well-being,” one contemporary critic remarked. He saw his mission as part-imperial, part-religious. He invented the Empire Service and persuaded King George V to start a Christmas message to the Empire which, in modern, post-imperial form, George V’s great-grandson, our new King, will deliver for the first time next month. In job interviews, Reith asked applicants whether they believed in the teachings of Jesus. In programming, he made sure that no one could have fun on Sundays.
Reith was bravely independent of government, but it seems never to have occurred to him to doubt for one second that he had an absolute right to force his idea of life, the universe and everything upon the British people. Many of his aims and prejudices were admirable. He disliked television, for example, much preferring radio. But he was innocent of the democratic belief that people should be free to choose.
This remains the BBC’s problem today. The teachings of Jesus have long ceased to hold sway in Broadcasting House, but the dominance of doctrine is the same. In news, in drama, in documentaries and even more in magazine programmes, such as Today, which include news, the orthodoxy is multiculturalism, diversity (which means ethnically diverse but politically uniform), victim culture and exposés of government for not spending enough money on things. In another echo of old-time religion, there is even a constant “The End is Nigh” theme, in the form of global warming.
One is all in favour of people being able to hold these opinions. One is less in favour of making the rest of us pay for them. In the 19th century, Parliament finally commuted the tithes, the taxes which lavished money on the Church of England. In the 21st, it should commute the licence fee and invite the BBC to finance its dogmas, temples and priesthood by other means.
Much is currently made of the BBC commitment to regions. It beats its breast about how it should do more things out of London. But in fact it is cutting back on valued local programming. I have recently received unsolicited complaints about the effects of its decision to drop broadcasting from Oxford and Cambridge. Was that made, perhaps, because the names associated with the highest levels of education might sound “elitist”?
The BBC decision was mysteriously justified by the need to “move decisively to a digital-first BBC to better deliver value for all audiences”. What this means in practice is that local people and institutions that have built up solid relationships with local journalists in or near either city have now lost them. If you are in Oxford, you must make contact with Southampton – almost a different universe. If you are in Cambridge, your Look East programme will now come – surely a power grab by Alan Partridge – out of Norwich.
I must not leave the subject of Lord Reith without pointing readers in the direction of a wonderful interview conducted with him in old age by Malcolm Muggeridge. An edit of it is currently circulating on Twitter.
Muggeridge asks Reith, a Scot, why he had insisted on a “BBC accent” that sounded English. Reith defends himself, citing the need for an “educated” way of speaking which ensures clarity. Muggeridge objects that this accent identified the BBC as being “the organ of the genteel and respectable elements in society”. Reith turns his great granite head round and stares at Mugg. “Anything wrong with that?” he asks, witheringly. In the age of the consonant-free Amol Rajan, one can only cheer.ENDS
“THE former Yorkshire cricketer Azeem Rafiq is today at the centre of explosive allegations concerning two incidents of indecent exposure.” from 2012
“These incidents were amongst the incidents alluded to in the 14 October letter when it referred, inter alia, to ‘endless episodes of Azeem’s bad behaviour, well-known to the club.’ ”
OK This seems to be the chain
Yorkshire Cricket Club produced a report about racism toward Rafiq
It seemed to be overly secretive
It seems the reason was the report was full of stuff damaging to Rafiq too.
Rafiq raised a fuss and basically took control, brought Lord Ahmad in, who then gave him a £200K payoff and sacked a lot of the backroom staff including an Asian physio.
The sacked white physio says that was unfair dismissal
and submitted answers to questions to the court.
Yorkshire Post has now obtained this document.
This one will run and run. Pakistan is a such a calm and well run country, a model of democracy, so it is hardly surprising that its people are so honest and trustworthy. Why not believe every word he says?
Not forgetting the fat-shaming, homophobia and anti-semitic tweets when he accused another cricketer of not paying for dinner because “he is a Jew”.
ITV now reporting that he’s leaving the UK (I predict the BBC will ignore the story as much as they can).
“… he is now having to pack up his home in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, and quit the country for his family’s protection […] “Twenty-one years ago, my dad picked us up and moved us because his business partner had been kidnapped and burnt. Twenty-one years on, deja vu and I’m having to pick my family up and leave for safety reasons. That breaks me.””
And in their usual manner they open up a HYS, expecting the usual tirade of anti-government posts. But just for a change the top rated posts are ‘electric fires don’t cause accidents, people using them inappropriately cause accidents’.
How nice for the BBC to get its comeuppance once in a while.

Apparently the population of the planet has hit 8? Billion? Or is it 9?
Anyway the BBC seems to think that’s good news . But how can that be ? Surely the green apostles want to cull the world population – maybe by a billion or two . The starting point is whitee in the west – encourage wimmin not to breed – replace them with the third world while they watch …
… personally I think mankind will cull itself one way or another – whether planned or not … I just hope when it comes it’s quick and we won’t have to suffer the BBC asking people how they feel about nuclear death …
……….and will it encourage more people to use bicycles
A two year old boy has died in a rented flat as a result of institutional racism, sorry mould on the walls of his bedroom. A quick peep at the article shows why the bbc are all over it. I rent my home, and if a bulb blows then I replace it; I don’t run off and moan at the landlord. Why does nobody ask the father “did you consider getting off your arse and applying some treatment to the walls yourself?” the answer would probably be “I did everything humanly possible, I complained to Rochdale council, and….er that’s it”. What sort of father would do precisely nothing except wait for the council to phone them back (Probably on their iphone 99)? I know exactly the sort, and I imagine I’m not alone.
“Rochdale Coroners’ Court heard his father had reported the mould several times to Rochdale Boroughwide Housing”
The mould had been reported, the coroner concludes, to the RBH housing association. Remedial works to treat and remove it “should have been undertaken.” This “lack of action” meant Awaab continued to be “exposed to harmful mould.”
People reply to SkyNews
“I lived in a mould infested council house as a child, but my mother took it upon herself to regularly clean the areas with bleach and ensure good ventilation.
It seems to of become the norm now to let it get as worse as possible to try get a better house.”
Mould happens cos the building ventilation and insulation is not up to scratch.
but can be controlled using bleach. humidifiers, sunlight, heating etc.
The ITV report says that health concerns about the mould had been logged but housing association workers were using the IT system wrongly so it never got dealt with.
Awaab’s mum Aisha Amin had limited English
Staff will now get an app on their phones to give them access to an interpreter which could help workers dealing with such tenants.
The party of the incumbent president usually does badly in the mid terms. Even Obama, who could speak and think, and even walk, got a “shellacking” in the mid terms.
The current incumbent is senile. He handed Afghanistan to the Taliban. He presides over 10% inflation and an open southern border.
So obviously, he has had the best mid term results for 20 years. Nothing suspicious about that at all. It’s just the case that it takes over a week to count the votes until they have enough for the Democrat to win. Now move along, there’s nothing to see here.
Rob – democracy won . I fear the BBC will be ‘over the moon ‘ burying President Trump if he decides not to run . And if he blames the election fraud 2020 2022 they’ll really enjoy themselves with ‘unfounded allegations ‘ written into judgemental new reports – no bias now – no bias at all…
I think the democrat in charge of counting has whispered that they’ve found enough postal votes to ensure that democracy wins – ie – an approved result …..
The feds will be down on dissenters stazi style …
Katty Kay’s recent piece (on the webpage BBC News US and Canada) on her meeting with “denier” Kari Lake (GOP candidate to be Arizona Governor):
“… … … …
Second, she refuses to concede any doubt at all in her own election denial. During our interview, I put it to her that there was no evidence the 2020 election had been stolen. I pointed out that the Arizona Republican party’s own recount had confirmed that Joe Biden had won the state. I reminded her that over 60 lawsuits claiming election fraud had been dismissed for lack of cause by judges around the US, including judges Trump himself had appointed.
It made no difference. She is far more disciplined and on message than Trump could ever be.
“We could sit here all day,” she said. “I can go over the evidence and the media still won’t believe it because they’re on a mission to discredit that.”
She said evidence has never been presented, at least not in public. If the Lake team has it, we haven’t seen it. She told me Arizona’s attorney general has sat on a mountain of evidence. He says he’s wrapped up his investigation and there’s no evidence of fraud. The back-and-forth of baseless claims is frustrating. This should be black and white, fact-based, especially, one would think, to a news journalist.
I went into my interview with Lake hoping to discover if she really believes what she says about the election being rigged, or if she just uses the conspiracy as a useful way to win votes. Honestly, I left none the wiser.
And maybe it doesn’t really matter. Lake is still casting doubt on the validity of elections, this time her own. And whether she believes it or not, millions of her supporters do. That’s where the damage to American democracy can be done.”
Well, Katty, there’s “2000 Mules” by Dinesh D’Souza for starters, dealing with the 2020 Presidential and other elections, and plenty of prima facie evidence that the BBC might at least look into. Why do the Democrats so often win close races where the counting is drawn out over many days and the result delayed?
Wiki reassures us that “In May 2022, D’Souza released 2000 Mules, a film that falsely alleges Democrat-aligned individuals were paid to illegally collect and deposit ballots into drop boxes in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin during the 2020 presidential election.”
Sarah Smith has added her bit under the heading “Kari Lake defeat: Did democracy win in US midterms?”
“… … …
So far none of the defeated candidates has cried foul and said they don’t believe these election results.
But Kari Lake has said on Twitter that “Arizonans know BS when they see it”. Will she try to challenge the legitimacy of her opponent’s victory? Or have the lies about stolen elections been defeated at the ballot box?
Donald Trump is due to give his “very big announcement” at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday evening.
We expect he will announce his third tilt at the White House. Will he continue to campaign on the basis of his election lies or will he have to find a new song to sing?”
“Lies” is a strong word for an impartial reporter to use: how does she know? The BBC has done very little digging into allegations of electoral malpractice and suspicious postal voting in this or the 2020 elections. A better phrase would be “allegedly stolen elections” or “unproven Republican suspicions of electoral fraud.”
But then the 100-year old BBC isn’t impartial so that would be expecting too much.
It might not be £600m full loss

back in the day when I was familiar with The Anti Nazi League and Rock against Racism – a splinter group would always have a snappy TLA or properly oxymoronic branding. “anti fascists” – I don’t think so.
ITV there are choosing NOT to identify the perps – which logically would reasonable infer that once their provenance was known – any sympathy and consequent platforming of the message would evaporate ?
BBC going big on the Sudanese kid who died in Rochdale . The coroner a fully woke type .It happened 2 years ago. The housing situation has worst ended dramatically since then – with a lot of landlords selling up and the private rental market reducing in size .
The coroner as usual blames anyone but the parents – who it seems – and not good at Dee eeengllish . Maybe if they learnt the kid might still be alive – or not . Parents are responsible for their kids – with the state and agencies as a fall back . I hate the welfare state as much as the BBC .
My mum and dad worked hard to get away from welfare . And succeeded – but they suffered and watched the feckless living easy lives on giveme benefits and other peoples’ money . …
I assume this one will be swerved by labour if Rochdale is one there s – also – someone might mention Pakistani Muslim rape gangs in passing …
There are so many cover ups on the go in Brigadoon that you would scratch your head in astonishment that Krankie and her crew of incompetents are not being hunted down by the MSM and , in particular the white elephant £32 million waste bBC Scotland.
This is proof if we need it that the bBC is nothing more than a political machine of the Left.
Why, the Conservatives are maintaining bBC,s existence and status quo together with their failure to dedicate a “deportation unit”that is ruthless and effective suggests they are lost.
A resulting labour /SNP coalition will finish off the UK and herald an “emigration” event to dwarf what is happening on the South Coast.
1) Please issue a formal notice of intent that the L/F will end in 2023
2) Appoint a deportation Czar with clout to remove all invaders.

In order to house these genuine refugees he needs to have his house’s electrical wiring checked up to the highest standards. He needs fire and smoke detectors. He needs a fire escape plan.

In a mission named Operation Turus, the RAF (UK Airforce) conducted air reconnaissance over northern Nigeria for several months, following the kidnapping of 276 girls from the town of Chibok in April 2014 (by Islamist militant group Boko Haram). “The girls were located in the first few weeks of the RAF mission,” a source involved in Operation Turus told the Observer. “We offered to rescue them, but the Nigerian government declined.”

The Vision of the Anointed (1995) is a book by economist and political columnist Thomas Sowell which brands the anointed as promoters of a worldview concocted out of fantasy impervious to any real-world considerations.[1] Sowell asserts that these thinkers, writers, and activists continue to be revered even in the face of evidence disproving their positions.
Sowell argues that American thought is dominated by a “prevailing vision” which seals itself off from any empirical evidence that is inconsistent with that vision.

Looks like the BBC are preparing the ground for a win against the true president trump whatever he announces – if he runs he will be declared ‘deluded ‘ – if he doesn’t it will show that his claims about election theft were always false .
He is being ridiculed for saying the coming US presidential election is the most important ever – but the U.S. is heading to be the sort of one party state the UK has become – the difference being that the UK population was bought off with welfare dependency …
…..whereas the independence found in the American culture is being eroded by socialism …
I shall post this very long video of one of the cities most succesful traders and his campaign on inequality. Might seem odd until you realise when he is talking about taxing the rich he isn’t meaning high earners, he is meaning wealth, and that wealth is predominantly foreign owned assets in the UK by ultra rich individuals who are using those assets to bleed the ordinary people of this country dry.
As he says they now own more or less everything, and you’re next in line as companies like Blackrock begin to buy housing making it unaffordable for the next generation.
Maybe I was a bit dim, when I thought the maxim you will own nothing you will be happy was a form of Communism and the government owned all the assets, but the reality is that the really wealthy own everything and are looking to hoover up that what they don’t already have in a return to a kind of fuedalism.
The guy is clearly very very bright, uses some choice language, but he isn’t a socialist by any means, he has the same Capitalist beliefs I have you work hard, keep your nose clean and in return you can buy a home settle down and enjoy a nice life.
Anyway have a watch and if you can’t sit through the entire interview try the last few minutes but he certainly has a point and it’s worth watching to listen to media faults, academic faults professional faults and the reasons why they happen.

But I must not surrender to nostalgia, because in the BBC’s beginning is its end. Although it was established in 1922, its key date is 1926. It was then, under its general manager, John Reith, that it ceased to be the private-sector British Broadcasting Company and became the British Broadcasting Corporation with a royal charter – with Reith as its first director general. Ever since, it has been the poll tax-funded, privileged autocrat of our cultural life.
The life of Reith suggests that he was virtually mad, but also a genius (the two things being traditionally near-allied). “He seems to talk as if he were in charge of national well-being,” one contemporary critic remarked. He saw his mission as part-imperial, part-religious. He invented the Empire Service and persuaded King George V to start a Christmas message to the Empire which, in modern, post-imperial form, George V’s great-grandson, our new King, will deliver for the first time next month. In job interviews, Reith asked applicants whether they believed in the teachings of Jesus. In programming, he made sure that no one could have fun on Sundays.
Reith was bravely independent of government, but it seems never to have occurred to him to doubt for one second that he had an absolute right to force his idea of life, the universe and everything upon the British people. Many of his aims and prejudices were admirable. He disliked television, for example, much preferring radio. But he was innocent of the democratic belief that people should be free to choose.
This remains the BBC’s problem today. The teachings of Jesus have long ceased to hold sway in Broadcasting House, but the dominance of doctrine is the same. In news, in drama, in documentaries and even more in magazine programmes, such as Today, which include news, the orthodoxy is multiculturalism, diversity (which means ethnically diverse but politically uniform), victim culture and exposés of government for not spending enough money on things. In another echo of old-time religion, there is even a constant “The End is Nigh” theme, in the form of global warming.
One is all in favour of people being able to hold these opinions. One is less in favour of making the rest of us pay for them. In the 19th century, Parliament finally commuted the tithes, the taxes which lavished money on the Church of England. In the 21st, it should commute the licence fee and invite the BBC to finance its dogmas, temples and priesthood by other means.
Much is currently made of the BBC commitment to regions. It beats its breast about how it should do more things out of London. But in fact it is cutting back on valued local programming. I have recently received unsolicited complaints about the effects of its decision to drop broadcasting from Oxford and Cambridge. Was that made, perhaps, because the names associated with the highest levels of education might sound “elitist”?
The BBC decision was mysteriously justified by the need to “move decisively to a digital-first BBC to better deliver value for all audiences”. What this means in practice is that local people and institutions that have built up solid relationships with local journalists in or near either city have now lost them. If you are in Oxford, you must make contact with Southampton – almost a different universe. If you are in Cambridge, your Look East programme will now come – surely a power grab by Alan Partridge – out of Norwich.
I must not leave the subject of Lord Reith without pointing readers in the direction of a wonderful interview conducted with him in old age by Malcolm Muggeridge. An edit of it is currently circulating on Twitter.
Muggeridge asks Reith, a Scot, why he had insisted on a “BBC accent” that sounded English. Reith defends himself, citing the need for an “educated” way of speaking which ensures clarity. Muggeridge objects that this accent identified the BBC as being “the organ of the genteel and respectable elements in society”. Reith turns his great granite head round and stares at Mugg. “Anything wrong with that?” he asks, witheringly. In the age of the consonant-free Amol Rajan, one can only cheer.ENDS

“THE former Yorkshire cricketer Azeem Rafiq is today at the centre of explosive allegations concerning two incidents of indecent exposure.” from 2012
“These incidents were amongst the incidents alluded to in the 14 October letter when it referred, inter alia, to ‘endless episodes of Azeem’s bad behaviour, well-known to the club.’ ”
OK This seems to be the chain
Yorkshire Cricket Club produced a report about racism toward Rafiq
It seemed to be overly secretive
It seems the reason was the report was full of stuff damaging to Rafiq too.
Rafiq raised a fuss and basically took control, brought Lord Ahmad in, who then gave him a £200K payoff and sacked a lot of the backroom staff including an Asian physio.
The sacked white physio says that was unfair dismissal
and submitted answers to questions to the court.

Anyway the BBC seems to think that’s good news . But how can that be ? Surely the green apostles want to cull the world population – maybe by a billion or two . The starting point is whitee in the west – encourage wimmin not to breed – replace them with the third world while they watch …

A two year old boy has died in a rented flat as a result of institutional racism, sorry mould on the walls of his bedroom. A quick peep at the article shows why the bbc are all over it. I rent my home, and if a bulb blows then I replace it; I don’t run off and moan at the landlord. Why does nobody ask the father “did you consider getting off your arse and applying some treatment to the walls yourself?” the answer would probably be “I did everything humanly possible, I complained to Rochdale council, and….er that’s it”. What sort of father would do precisely nothing except wait for the council to phone them back (Probably on their iphone 99)? I know exactly the sort, and I imagine I’m not alone.

Mould happens cos the building ventilation and insulation is not up to scratch.
but can be controlled using bleach. humidifiers, sunlight, heating etc.
The ITV report says that health concerns about the mould had been logged but housing association workers were using the IT system wrongly so it never got dealt with.

The party of the incumbent president usually does badly in the mid terms. Even Obama, who could speak and think, and even walk, got a “shellacking” in the mid terms.
The current incumbent is senile. He handed Afghanistan to the Taliban. He presides over 10% inflation and an open southern border.
So obviously, he has had the best mid term results for 20 years. Nothing suspicious about that at all. It’s just the case that it takes over a week to count the votes until they have enough for the Democrat to win. Now move along, there’s nothing to see here.

Katty Kay’s recent piece (on the webpage BBC News US and Canada) on her meeting with “denier” Kari Lake (GOP candidate to be Arizona Governor):
“… … … …
Second, she refuses to concede any doubt at all in her own election denial. During our interview, I put it to her that there was no evidence the 2020 election had been stolen. I pointed out that the Arizona Republican party’s own recount had confirmed that Joe Biden had won the state. I reminded her that over 60 lawsuits claiming election fraud had been dismissed for lack of cause by judges around the US, including judges Trump himself had appointed.
It made no difference. She is far more disciplined and on message than Trump could ever be.
“We could sit here all day,” she said. “I can go over the evidence and the media still won’t believe it because they’re on a mission to discredit that.”
She said evidence has never been presented, at least not in public. If the Lake team has it, we haven’t seen it. She told me Arizona’s attorney general has sat on a mountain of evidence. He says he’s wrapped up his investigation and there’s no evidence of fraud. The back-and-forth of baseless claims is frustrating. This should be black and white, fact-based, especially, one would think, to a news journalist.
I went into my interview with Lake hoping to discover if she really believes what she says about the election being rigged, or if she just uses the conspiracy as a useful way to win votes. Honestly, I left none the wiser.
And maybe it doesn’t really matter. Lake is still casting doubt on the validity of elections, this time her own. And whether she believes it or not, millions of her supporters do. That’s where the damage to American democracy can be done.”
Well, Katty, there’s “2000 Mules” by Dinesh D’Souza for starters, dealing with the 2020 Presidential and other elections, and plenty of prima facie evidence that the BBC might at least look into. Why do the Democrats so often win close races where the counting is drawn out over many days and the result delayed?
Wiki reassures us that “In May 2022, D’Souza released 2000 Mules, a film that falsely alleges Democrat-aligned individuals were paid to illegally collect and deposit ballots into drop boxes in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin during the 2020 presidential election.”

Sarah Smith has added her bit under the heading “Kari Lake defeat: Did democracy win in US midterms?”
“… … …
So far none of the defeated candidates has cried foul and said they don’t believe these election results.
But Kari Lake has said on Twitter that “Arizonans know BS when they see it”. Will she try to challenge the legitimacy of her opponent’s victory? Or have the lies about stolen elections been defeated at the ballot box?
Donald Trump is due to give his “very big announcement” at Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday evening.
We expect he will announce his third tilt at the White House. Will he continue to campaign on the basis of his election lies or will he have to find a new song to sing?”
“Lies” is a strong word for an impartial reporter to use: how does she know? The BBC has done very little digging into allegations of electoral malpractice and suspicious postal voting in this or the 2020 elections. A better phrase would be “allegedly stolen elections” or “unproven Republican suspicions of electoral fraud.”
But then the 100-year old BBC isn’t impartial so that would be expecting too much.

The Vision of the Anointed (1995) is a book by economist and political columnist Thomas Sowell which brands the anointed as promoters of a worldview concocted out of fantasy impervious to any real-world considerations.[1] Sowell asserts that these thinkers, writers, and activists continue to be revered even in the face of evidence disproving their positions.
Sowell argues that American thought is dominated by a “prevailing vision” which seals itself off from any empirical evidence that is inconsistent with that vision.

Matt Hancock ‘getting paid £400,000 for doing I’m A Celeb’

WHAT a day for Matt Hancock.
First there’s the picture of him appearing to share a kiss with departmental adviser Gina Coladangelo.
Then it emerges he’s left up an Instagram story encouraging more “brilliant women” to “get involved” in his team.
Now an interview from September 2020 of him discussing relationships during the Covid-19 pandemic has re-emerged, and makes awkward viewing.
Hancock, who is said to have met Coladangelo at university, has been married to his wife Martha for 15 years and they have three children together.

You can see why voters were so keen on the Democrats in the mid terms. Who doesn’t want more of this?

Looks like the BBC are preparing the ground for a win against the true president trump whatever he announces – if he runs he will be declared ‘deluded ‘ – if he doesn’t it will show that his claims about election theft were always false .
He is being ridiculed for saying the coming US presidential election is the most important ever – but the U.S. is heading to be the sort of one party state the UK has become – the difference being that the UK population was bought off with welfare dependency …
…..whereas the independence found in the American culture is being eroded by socialism …

I shall post this very long video of one of the cities most succesful traders and his campaign on inequality. Might seem odd until you realise when he is talking about taxing the rich he isn’t meaning high earners, he is meaning wealth, and that wealth is predominantly foreign owned assets in the UK by ultra rich individuals who are using those assets to bleed the ordinary people of this country dry.
As he says they now own more or less everything, and you’re next in line as companies like Blackrock begin to buy housing making it unaffordable for the next generation.
Maybe I was a bit dim, when I thought the maxim you will own nothing you will be happy was a form of Communism and the government owned all the assets, but the reality is that the really wealthy own everything and are looking to hoover up that what they don’t already have in a return to a kind of fuedalism.
The guy is clearly very very bright, uses some choice language, but he isn’t a socialist by any means, he has the same Capitalist beliefs I have you work hard, keep your nose clean and in return you can buy a home settle down and enjoy a nice life.
Anyway have a watch and if you can’t sit through the entire interview try the last few minutes but he certainly has a point and it’s worth watching to listen to media faults, academic faults professional faults and the reasons why they happen.
