Start the week 13 February 2023

Apparently there is dismay at the BBC about the appointment of the Chairman . The Chairman was , apparently , involved in financial dealings with Prime Minister Boris Johnson prior to appointment . There is no suggestion of corruption of course – and no rules were broken . But politicians make the rules …anything undermining the Far Left BBC is good for us eh?

      Bandwagon jumping idiot. Nowhere Starmer of course, but still the wrong side of the line.

      The next election is going to have the lowest turnout in decades and Labour will win by a smaller-than-expected majority if the Tories don’t sort themselves out.

      And the Leftists media will fake surprise at The Reform party doing better than anticipated. But they have no chance because they will not get any positive coverage in the run-up.

      99 balloons was an anti-war song, no doubt celebrated by the same group of people who are now demanding we send lots more weapons to Ukraine.

      Let’s all sing ‘It’s all gone quiet over there’. Can you hear us ‘Stop The War’ ?.

      This is only the beginning. Only the wealthy will be able to afford and run EV’s with charging points in their detached houses with double garages in leafy lanes.

      Ordinary Joe will be simply pushed out of private car ownership and will hence pick up most of the cost and live a severely limited life,

      I’d wouldn’t bother with the BBC’s take
      I’d go straight to the Indian Minister
      Union Minister Anurag Thakur
      Income Tax Dept conducts surveys from time to time where irregularities are found,
      & when survey is completed, they give information.
      When this survey of IT will be completed, we’ll give you all that information in detail:

      video and story

      officials said the survey was being carried out to investigate issues related to international taxation and transfer pricing of BBC subsidiary companies, and alleged that the BBC had been served with notices in the past but was “defiant and non-compliant” and had significantly diverted its profits.

      … Accusing the Congress of supporting anti-India narratives, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said, ” BBC is the most corrupt organisation in the world. BBC propaganda matches with Congress agenda”.

    Black education activists in the US want all white children to be taught to be ashamed and anxious over the activities of their white forefathers which impacted on black people.

    Here’s another idea, why not at the same time teach all black children in the US to be ashamed and anxious over the almost complete lack of human progress in their forefathers lands by their forefathers, a situation which is indirectly responsible for their situation today?

      … and teach them to be ashamed at the vastly disproportionate crime and murder carried out by black people.

      And when they say it’s because of white racism, point them to South Africa or any other sh1thole in that region and tell them it gets 10 times worse when black people govern themselves.

      Admitting a problem is the first step.

      All children should be taught that without the white race the rest of them would still be living in mud huts and throwing spears to get their dinner. It’s true…

      There were no cities or civilisations in darkest Africa before the arrival of the white man. Native Africans hadn’t progressed for tens of thousands of years. They were mainly nomadic tribes who, if hungry enough, could indulge in cannibalism. How quaint…

      Australia was no better. The Aboriginals, for whom I have a lot of sympathy, had built nothing on the land. They would eat things that even the pottiest green zealot would turn their nose up at. Now it’s a modern thriving, industrialised first world nation with skyscrapers, lush cities and cuisine from all over the world. It’s little short of a miracle. Left to the Aboriginal people they would still be hunting with boomerangs and foraging for underground centipedes. Yummy!

      The inventive genius of white people is phenomenal. That big silver bird that soars across the skies wouldn’t exist if it wasn’t for white genius. Do you think a man would ever have set foot on the Moon? Don’t be silly.

      The automobile, television, nearly all modern medicine, virtually all literature, art and music are the product of the white race.

      Without white people the modern world doesn’t exist. Simples.

      Teach them that…

    BBC reports that candle lit vigils are planned for boy turned girl Brianna Ghey, whose murder cannot be condoned in any circumstance.

    This may confuse the statisticians. Because according to the ONS, twice as many men as women are killed by strangers in percentage terms. But the murder rate for men is two and a half times that of women. So a murder by a stranger affects ( i.e. kills) FIVE times more men than women.

    A fact not mentioned by the BBC.
    And no vigils for them either.

    Proof? Am I a ‘Far Right’ extremist making this stuff up?
    You judge.

      Quite right Sluff.

      I have absolutely nothing against vigils and demands for action against those who commit these murders.

      It’s the gross, shameful hypocrisy and double standards of the activists behind them which I detest. The life of a normal, heterosexual white male is worthless to them. They only care about their agenda. Not the person who got killed.

      I’m tired of Candle lit vigils, especially nationwide one, and here in this schoolboy park death case. there’s zero details about what exactly happened.
      Kind of bigoted to jump to conclusion that Brian was innocent, solely based on his transvestism.
      How do we know he wasn’t running about with a knife threatening people, and ended up getting stabbed himself.

    BBC India like their mothership in this country have been engaging in a left-wing style attack on what is a fairly right-wing Indian Government and the Government appear to be hitting back, fairly or otherwise.

    Of course no fears of that happening here, our BBC UK would never indulge in a sustained attack on the current Conservative government would they?

    Further to Angela Rayner’s comments on profligate spending.
    Every Labour Government has run the country out of money. Labour local Authorities are always profligate.

    If Rayner is talking about the Civil Service, fair enough, the Tories have let it run but Labour have always had poor financial control.

    If Rayner is talking about MP and Ministers expenses, Labour Politicians have always filled their boots. Look at Tony Bliar, he shredded his expenses claims so there must have been a lot to hide

    Come to think of it, the Bliar expenses story doesn’t make sense. Why would he be in possession of the only copy of his expenses claims? Surely those claims would have to be submitted to the Civil Service oppo for processing so they would have a copy? I suspect collusion.
