      In case anyone’s not aware, the guy with the mic is an Ahmadi, which is a tiny sub-sect of Islam that is relatively peaceful and tolerant.

      So, naturally, mainstream muslims hate them and persecute them.

        The fact that people like us on the political right complain about them is precisely why Leftists such as the BBC defend Muslims.

        Never underestimate what shallow, self-serving, spiteful hypocrites the Left are. Muslims do many things the BBC and the Left despise when someone else does them – in particular their homophobia, their sexism and their intolerance – but these shameless scum are quite prepared to ignore all that just so they can be weaponised as ‘victims’.

        Not all of them of course : the rest are idiots who are too dumb to realise how dumb they are and need the security of the groupthink.

        I still remember the student Brexit protestor who – when asked what is the best thing the EU have given us – said ‘The NHS’.

        1985 …. Ahmadis suffer vicious persecution around the world. The main source of fuel for that persecution is in Pakistan, but what happens in Pakistan does not stay in Pakistan.

        I know that from my experience in the Yorkshire market town of Batley. In August 1985, when I was 11 years old, my parents organised an inter-faith meeting in the town hall. It was interrupted and disturbed when, according to West Yorkshire police,

        more than 1,000 extremists, led by Pakistani hate preachers funded by the Pakistani state, were bused in from around the country.

        The mob brutally attacked my English mother and my father, a dermatologist; my eldest brother and I; and a Welsh Ahmadi schoolteacher who was with us. My first cousin, a GP, was by chance driving through the market town that day. He saw the mob and saw his family and friends being attacked, so he stopped. He was recognised, pulled from his vehicle and savagely beaten up.

      As shocking as the video is the fact that the police didn’t arrest the attempted murderer on the spot, nor subsequently, despite the fact that there were multiple witnesses and recordings of the crime.
      Equally scandalous is the fact that the heroic preacher Hatun Tash has HERSELF been arrested on multiple occasions, but NEVER her muslim assailants.

        You guys are quick. I was just about to post the fact that the stabber of Hatun has not been brought to justice after all these years. DESPITE the fact that Londonistan and especially Speakers corner has the most CCTV anywhere in the world.

        Funny that.

        I have seen crazed muslim mobs attacking elderly Christian preachers at Speakers Corner with impunity.

        No other faith or group at Speakers Corner behaves as badly. Even the mad marxists are like choir boys in comparison.

    “Manchester Arena inquiry: MI5 ‘profoundly sorry’ for not stopping attack”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-manchester-64815723
    How on earth could the MI5 keep an eye on all the illegal invaders landing on our shores ?
    The supine government running us can make as many laws as they like but the invasion will only be stopped by Force .

    • JohnC says:

      In order to give some context to that story, any quality ‘journalist’ (as opposed to activist) would tell us how many potential Muslims terrorists are being monitored at any one time by MI5 and hence how difficult it is to know which one might break.

      Because the answer is 10’s of thousands. But the BBC far-left activists do not want us to know the truth so they lie by omission.

    • Ian Rushlow says:

      The authorities are not interested in stopping the invasion. As globalists, they do not believe in nation states. Nation states are largely defined by the people who live there – change the people, you change the country. That’s what migration is about, and if it provides cheap labour in the meantime, then so much the better. The death of (predominately) children in the outrage at the Manchester Arena is simply viewed as a form of collateral damage: regrettable, certainly, but in their eyes a price worth paying for a glorious, sunlit, carbon-free, multicultural utopia under the auspices of the WEF and a couple of dozen mega-corporations.

      I too get enraged at some scumbag judge blaming MI5 for not stopping the attack.

      It is these activist judges who have allowed these terrorists into the UK by not letting them be thrown out. There are constant appeals because of the ‘uman rights act.

      What about the ‘uman rights of the nail bombed children?

    A swamp story

    A senior civil servant is selected by the PM to inquire into covid regulation breaches in number 10 .

    The said Civil Servant delivers an ‘objective ‘ inquiry report . The previous and current PM take a slap on the hands for breaching rules they approved .

    The civil servant resigns from the civil service and becomes Red Labour PM in waiting chief of staff . Blue Labour gets upset .

    So from one moment the civil servant ‘is of the highest integrity ‘ and ‘politically neutral ‘ – to now where is has defiled the civil service and shown that it’s a lefty organisation serving red labour .

    Summary ‘who cares ‘? – she gets her peerage anyway – snout in the trough ….

    BBC One, 30 January 2023

    In a report about trade deals that the UK has struck since leaving Brexit we used a map of India which did not show Indian-administered Kashmir and the area separated by the line of control.

    We should have checked the map for accuracy before it was used and we are sorry for the mistake. The map artwork in question has been deleted so it can’t be used again.

    BBC One, 22 December 2022

    In a piece inspired by a group of students hoping to encourage more university applicants from diverse ethnic backgrounds we incorrectly stated that there was a huge gap between white applicants and those from any other ethnic background. We also showed a graph of the numbers of UCAS applicants from different backgrounds.

    A mistake occurred in representing numbers rather than percentages and in a misunderstanding of the statistics.

    Keep your filthy hands off my pussy (Daily Star this morning in the persona of Mrs Slocombe of Are You Being Served fame) edition

    Mrs Slocombe… one suddenly notices another saucy innuendo in that name that at the time went right over my head as an innocent TV-watching lad.

    Murder she wrote? Just to check in with our BBC online news top headline story this morning – we read: Alex Murdaugh verdict: Disgraced lawyer guilty of killing wife and son – we’ll leave our would-be Angela Lansburys over there at the Beeb with their transatlantic true crime whodunnit story – fascinating though that may be. Instead we’ll concentrate on the still breaking big political news story in the UK, from which perhaps they would seek to distract us?

    Our government’s still cherished but now rapidly unravelling misbegotten Lockdown policies…

    Forget the PPE, the official disinfectant efforts (white wash, anyone?): UK Covid-19 Inquiry… The UK Covid-19 Inquiry has been set up to examine the UK’s response to and impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, and learn lessons for the future – so says its website.

    We know, a priori, these protracted procrastinations will eventually inevitably culminate in conclusions along the lines of:

    ‘sooner, stricter, longer’ (TM Keir Starmer)

    – along with a fair dollop of institutional, structural… pandemical (?) racism

    Covid inquiry: Race should be at its core, say campaigners (BBC)

    And I’m guessing a recommedational prescription for more track and trace – very likely linked to this: Tony Blair and William Hague call for state-backed digital IDs… “In a world in which everything from vaccine status to aeroplane tickets and banking details are available on our personal devices, it is illogical that the same is not true of our individual public records,” the two wrote. (UKTN The home of UK tech)

    However, despite the inquiry, we’re learning far, far:

    ‘quicker, deeper, more intimately’

    ….about the government’s Lockdown shenanigans from Matt Hancock’s WhatsApp leaks. (Tech eh! What could possibly go wrong with putting all your personal info and secrets on your phone, Haig, Tone?)

    The Daily Mirror may not be the class swot but it plays teachers’ pet this morning, sucking up to Miss: Covid WhatsApp files… Teachers were absolute heroes during the pandemic. How dare clueless class clowns Hancock and Williamson ridicule them – one has difficulty coping with all these national heroes… nurses, paramedics, teachers… DVLA and Passport office staff next up for a doorstep pot bang?

    East Sussex school closures after snow and ice covers county during poor weather… it is likely that there will be treacherous, icy conditions on Monday morning that could be hazardous for pupils, parents and staff. So far, 25 schools have been fully or partially closed due to the weather (Sussex Live December 2022) – not a great deal of heroism on show there on a par with the likes of British heroes such as Ernest Shackleton or Scott of the Antarctic.

    The Lockdown files are the big news du jour, despite our BBC chosing headlines à la carte from obscure American crime reports.

    Matt Hancock ‘We’re going to have to get heavy with the police’ Leaked WhattsApp messages reveal that ministers gave officers ‘orders’ to strictly enforce Covid curbs on the public (Telegraph)

    The big supermarkets stayed open so they didn’t suffer much. Perhaps it’s no surprise then how corporate advertising sheet the Metro is wont to sympathise somewhat with Matt Hancock’s regret we had to see his secret texts.

    They wouldn’t really want you to see how the sausages are made. So it is with government – it’s a messy unpleasant business and there are some nasty-looking ingredients. Best draw a veil over it and keep mum: The great betrayal. Hancock fury over leak of ministers’ WhatsApp messages (Metro)

    The media dare not criticise Islam – this we know – but the Jews are a soft target for the formerly fearless Thunderer that was The Times: Unsafe schools where Jewish boys can barely read English – blimey, there’s a real danger they might grow up to be dressed in smark dark suits, keep the sabbath, go into the family business, marry early and have loads of kids.

    Whereas: Manchester bombing inquiry… 22 who should be alive (The Sun) – and just in case you put your faith (so to speak) in inquiries to name the root of the problem they were set up (not) to find… you’ll find they find some bureaucratic managerial system mistake to blame: M15 failed in massacre. Families hit out at spooks (Sun); More agony as M15 chief admits missed chances to stop attack that left 22 dead (Mirror)

    What did they tell us about companies’ potential flight to Europe post-Brext?

    Fears for City’s status after Arm and building giant opt to list in New York (FT)

    Returning to the wheels coming off Lockdown policy – cat owners look away now: Covid bombshell… Clowns plotted to kill our kitties… Bozo Johnson’s panicky government discussed killing ALL of Britian’s cats in the early days of Covid, a former health minister has admitted (Daily Star)

    Poor old Lary the Number 10 cat – he would have been first up against the wall.

    And we’ll end with the Star’s thought for the day: Can’t help thinking this Covid plan might have set the cat amongst the pigeons – pigeons soon to culled due to Bird Flu?

    First they came for your freedoms and I did not speak out… and then they came for my pussy and there was no one left to speak out (misquote from First They Came – by Pastor Martin Niemöller)

    And don’t blame us, say the bats

    On here we often get some posts which show a funny picture or a joke/spoof article which can make you laugh.

    When the wokie left come out with each of their ever more ridiculous ideas we just laugh it off or make jokes about it such as calling a pop band Themfred Them.
    We then get on with our lives.

    I think this is proving quite dangerous because the lefties will carry on with their ever dafter ideas while we’ve dismissed them as stupid. Their stupid ideas have a nasty habit of becoming mainstream because they are supported by the msm, police, most politicians, the judiciary and the rest of the left wing mob.

    We know the left have no sense of humour, look at any picture of their twisted faces snarling a reply at you and shouting over anything you try to say and see how totally unhappy and angry the are ALL of the time.
    To them all this rubbish is deadly serious.
    We laugh it off but they Bank it.
    Inch by inch they get a concession and keep it.

    It’s a bit like the Cavaliers and Roundheads/Puritans.
    What future do we want, a gloomy, misery filled, lefty hell or a bright, happy, joyous, free one as the likes of us on here would want.

    Look at any picture or listen to any lefty. There’s no good in them, only hate.
    Now look at the right (try Mark Steyn’s panel of Eva, Alex and Leilani for example) to see how happy we lot are.

    That’s our problem though, we can’t believe how dumb they are but they will not give up as they are stubborn.

If this were not the case, Member States could simply allow their national laws to take precedence over primary or secondary EU legislation, and the pursuit of EU policies would become unworkable.

      2018 … I suggest the following to help decide if presenters are worth the TV Tax paid under threat of prison …. maybe Carrie Gracie can produce one to justify her pay as well?

      New EU Directive BBC Programme Labels – for a new transparent and accountable and gender fair BBC

      “I, Jeremy Vine, cost the public £750K* per year which is the equivalent to 21.5 nurses on £35K, declare that I have no other incomes derived from my broadcasting at the BBC. I have declared all my expenses and registered all gifts on the BBC expenses website. I, Jeremy Vine on this 30 minutes of show, with production time of 2 hours at an hourly rate of £1153 cost you the public £2884*. This does not include the studio and team wages. All monies I make from my ‘BBC Brand’ go back into the BBC. I follow the BBC guidelines – not giving my opinion on subjects that I know little about on twitter, facebook. If I do give an opinion then they are 100% in agreement with the BBC and have been approved by the BBC at time of publishing. Please note that reading out this EU compliant notice just cost you, the public enforced to pay my wages under threat of prison, a total of £76*.”

      * hourly rate is rough calculation, without knowing Jeremy Vines full wage it will be hard to workout. Figures are for illustrative purposes only. They may go up or down depending gender or TV Tax, but are NOT linked to the talent market.

    BBC favourite Sadiq Khan may be diminutive in stature and non-existent when it comes to knife crime, but he’s big when it comes to implementing WEF directives on ‘no cars for the plebs’. The BBC reports that he has condemmed ‘protesters gathered to oppose the proposed ultra-low emission zone (ULEZ) expansion as far right, Covid deniers and Tories’. Remarkably, he failed to also condemn them as racists, transphobes and Putin’s lackeys. Perhaps his grip is slipping…

      Locally a bloke who was violent in a pub is claiming someone must have slipped him a Mickey.

      Interestingly all the usual types are out in force.

      Tricky one. Certainly the police are not covered in procedural glory now, but one has to hope there are tests for this kind of thing. But, ‘innocent until…’ and all that.

      But it will add cost and time. And hauling off in a pub after a sesh is a smidge different to conking out and finding yourself in the wrong taxi back seat.

    As we all know, the BBC love the Glastonbury Festival. Just seen it on the news channel but they’re bemoaning the headliners for this year. Can you guess why?
    Because they’re all white males, of course.
    Arctic Monkeys, Guns ‘N’ Roses and Elton John.
    Lewis Vaughan Jones talks to a ‘music journalist’ called Nicola Davies (live from a laptop in North London) and she’s so-o-o disappointed by this. She ends all her sentences with an upswing like she spends her time watching Australian soaps rather than listening to music.
    The message, though – it might not be wrong to be a white man.
    But it is wrong-er.

    Then we got a clip of Labour MP Rachael Reeves defending the move.

    This is a pattern in their reports that the Tory side gets few words read out

    Surely the Sue Gray story must be the biggest political/public sector scandal in recent years. A total stitch up.

    One might also ask why Smarmer and Rayner got away with doing something similar with even less excuse than Johnston had.

    The only thing that puzzles me how the Tories didn’t realise that Sue Gray was a Smarmer plant. One might speculate that some Tories indeed did know but we’re happy to see Johnston done like a kipper

      Flotsam
      I,m with you – choosing a friend of Starmer to head the inquiry into cake gate does make one wonder . But I’m prejudiced and think the current regime has been incompetent since the start .

      And on the other side – this super dooper Gray must see that her integrity – independence – reputation – are trashed by signing up to the Labour Party within months of helping to bring down a PM .

      On WATO the issue was raised why the gray inquiry continued after plod did there thing . It was – apparently – outside her terms of reference – once plod came in – her job was over …. The continuation raises a question of partiality and maybe doing Labour dirty work .

      If the committee dealing with this appointment doesn’t demand a 2 y ear moratorium on her job – then why bother ….?

      I know it’s a game because there is little difference between red and blue labour – but it has a degree of importance …

    The despicable Oakeshott specimen is revealing just what an absolute piece of crap she is now. threatening Hancock with “Nuclear” revelations if he tries to retaliate.

    What a nasty personality this woman must have. Surely if she has information and respect she would simply bring it out, and not try to use it to blackmail Hancock into silence.

    I think Hancock, whatever you think of him now has pretty solid ground to sue the arse off this total charlatan. I hope he does!

    Maybe her response is because she realises she has put herself in a vulnerable situation legally and is desperately trying to take evasive action.

    I’d Sue her for everything she’s got if I were MH!

      digg, with respect, following your logic it seems you might have preferred those MPs’ expenses records to have remained a state secret and the leaker to have been jailed back in 2009. You’d have had a friend in Gordon Brown.

      We’re learning things the politicians really thought about Lockdown that would never come out in any official inquiry. And for which the Telegraph has had to pay a tiny fraction of the cost we’ll pay for the public inquiry.

      Perhaps there was a breach of contract. You may be correct, strictly, legally, speaking. Maybe the courts will agree with you and the snake Hancock and rule that his contract outweighs any public interest. He’ll have another nice pay day.

      Hancock is a repulsive and devious little worm who was happily knocking off another bloke’s wife while keeping the rest of us under house arrest.

      Isabel has done the country a fantastic service, exposing this creep’s manipulations. He forced English school children into masks, having been told they’re of no use, simply to keep up with Kim Jock Un in Scotland. He separated dying loved ones from each other. Instead of protecting those in care homes, he exposed them to the virus. He’s both cowardly and unbelievably incompetent.

        Everything it has done has not improved anything at all . It has done things I fundamentally disagree with eg queer ‘marriage ‘ – green crap – borrowing huge sums of money . – closing roads – woke crap …

    We all know he’s an eu fanatic and his latest thing is to get drivers in London within the ulez zone to drive on the right as they do in Europe.

    It will be phased in with public transport like busses and taxis to start driving on the right from 1 May.
    Next, private vehicles will move to the right from 1 June and finally Lorries and other large vehicles will start driving on the right from 1 July.

    Anybody who disagrees with this is a far right racist antivaxer climate denier Tory nazi.

    I have written to the BBC about their four times a day
    Londonistan Programme on the TV. I suggested that
    they might just on a very rare occasion have a feature
    on the minority 3 Million indigenous folk who live in the capitol.
    For those living outside London. At least 70-to 75% of the presenters
    and reporters are ethnic. And basically the format of the programme is to trash the Metropolitan police, trash the toreeeeees. The ” bosses” Tonight it was the Fire Brigade also.
    The subject of black street crime which is rampant in the capitol is a taboo subject. If it is mentioned .It is off course
    the fault of the police.
    BUT someone must of read my enquiry !! Because to day in
    London is apparently “Cockney ” day. OK it was a black lady
    reporter asking ethnic folk in the street if they knew what meant by
    the cockney slang was for ” apples and pears” and “bees and honey” To be honest it was quite amusing . The folk even if they could understand her English , didn’t know what she was talking about! But I suppose the thought was there.
