UK’s Prince Charles received $3.2m from former Qatar PM: Report. The Sunday Times reports there was no suggestion that payments for the prince’s charity over a four-year period were illegal.26 Jun 2022

Didn’t they get the memo in March 2020, when the Government was by decree making it a criminal offence to leave one’s home without reasonable excuse, that human rights basically don’t matter when the chips are down?”

Something that the BBC will want to hide away. The case
of racism by Michael Vaughan the former Yorkshire and
England captain has been DISMISSED !!
BIG BROTHER at the BBC diversity dept and in fact all
of those at the BBC who support critical race theory
( anarchist Marxism) will be in a state of despair. That the
Yorkshire cricket board did not support the anti-Semite
who told the board that Vaughan was racist.
The prosecution failed even though the bar is lower that a court prosecution
the independent Cricket Discipline Commission (CDC) panel said
it was “not satisfied on the balance of probabilities that this form of words was said”
It’s all about one remark 14 years ago, which he says he never said
“too many of you lot” towards Asian teammates Azeem Rafiq, Adil Rashid, Rana Naved-ul-Hasan and Ajmal Shahzad before a 2009 T20 match against Nottinghamshire.
So what happens to those who made the false allegations ?
Or clearly the panel was biased and racist and just don’t like pakis …..
Methinks the BBC will have had a ‘long package ‘ to destroy anyone found guilty – instead they concentrate on kicking president trump …. A happy safe place for the BBC .
Please cancel your licence .
Fed, this weekend, if I recall correctly, marks the 18th Anniversary of my cancelling (not renewing) my TV Licence. At present rates I have saved, ie. not spent on paying Gary Lineker, £2862. At next year’s inflated rate of over £170 I have breached the 3k saving mark. : – )
5 people John Blain, Tim Bresnan, Andrew Gale, Matthew Hoggard and Richard Pyrah – had indicated prior to the hearing that they would not participate, with the charges against them heard in their absence.
A seventh individual, former Yorkshire player Gary Ballance, has also admitted using racist and/or discriminatory language.
(dunno why that’s so vague)
It all dates back to a club report in September 2021 about Yorkshire bowler Azeem Rafiq, that accepted Rafiq had been the victim of racial harassment and bullying
but that said no individuals would face disciplinary action
(probably cos Rafiq himself seemed to do similar stuff)
Rafiq said: “The issue has never been about individuals but the game as a whole […] Hopefully, the structures of the game can now be rebuilt and institutionalised racism ended for good. It’s time to reflect, learn and implement change.”
When Rafiq was caught having made anti-semitic statements, an apology was deemed enough and the BBC were doing damage limitation. No one called for the structures of the Pakistani diaspora to be rebuilt, it was simply ‘lessons have been learnt’.
OK there were other players found guilty
“The panel found claims of racist language proven against former players Tim Bresnan Matthew Hoggard and John Blain and former players-turned-coaches Andrew Gale and Richard Pyrah.”
What’s wrong of the word “race” in the phrase “net-zero race”?
This word is dishonest because a race is meant to indicate a competition in which some prize or benefit is won by whoever is fastest – and in which said prize or benefit goes in lesser degree or not at all to the other competitors.
In this case “the race to net-zero” is a race to lose benefits, a race in which the prize is being hobbled.
That is still true even if one accepts the necessity of being hobbled.
The choice of the US to hobble itself first by passing Biden’s “Inflation Reduction Act” (another example of dishonest language) hands a competitive advantage to the UK, so long as we do not do likewise.

Abba fans were asked not to wear Afro wigs over claims they are ‘culturally insensitive’. It led to a debate online about cultural appropriation. What counts as cultural appropriation and why? How can people appreciate things from other cultures without being accused of appropriating?”
The thinnest of the skin trumps the colour . How could a ‘mature ‘ country become infantilised so quickly ?

I wonder if Alastair Campbell’s team write Alice Roberts tweets ?
.. it’s obvious that Brexit is not the main driver of the current economic situation anyway
EU countries have similar issues in many ways
Checkout the responses to Alice. I’m afraid that after 6+ years, many who voted to Remain in the EU still have little understanding of why a majority voted Leave. Or maybe it’s just easier to cling to their lazy tropes?
The 4% figure is bogus. It is based on an extrapolation of economic trends which assumes the disruption to trade following Brexit will continue ad infinitum, which is clearly not the case. It is as reliable as one of Neil Ferguson’s computer models.
But Alice Roberts is a reliable lefty so her TV career is secure. That’s the main thing.
It’s amazing that insignificant little people like her just don’t realise that there is more to life than sitting in a plush office at a lefty uni, wringing her little hands, and wondering why normal hard-working people in the private sector get utterly pissed off with lazy flat-earth believers like her!

Dane-Geld
A.D. 980-1016
It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation
To call upon a neighbour and to say: —
“We invaded you last night–we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.”
And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you’ve only to pay ’em the Dane-geld
And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!
It is always a temptation for a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say: —
“Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”
And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.
It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray;
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say: —
“We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!”

Just trying to point out the suffering of all and not just Ukranian soldiers due to the USA, UK and EU proxy war against Russia. People should do some research into the cause of the conflict.
The USA, already pretty much a pile of garbage has lowered the bar even more with the obvious spurious political assassination attempt on both Trump and the Republican Party.
It looks very much like the US is under the control of a strange mix of mafia, IRA, Soros and Marxist cuckoos in the Dem machine.
The question is, will the population let this go by and suck it up or will it lead to what I can envisage as inevitable civil war?
There is not little doubt that the Dems are fixing everything they can, legally or otherwise to retain a grip on controlling the Country. And will undoubtedly make sure then next election is fixed. It’s straight out if the mafia playbook.
Over to you US citizens, it’s your future and the future of your children in the balance now!
This sort of devious power grabbing behaviour only worked for a while for Cromwell in this Country for instance.

None of the terrible things that have happened in the last three years – the destruction of life and livelihood, the assaults on freedom, the state bullying and coercion, the vaccine deaths and injuries – would have been possible if the media had done its job, engaged in a modicum of basic research, and spoken truth to power.
It’s 2 minutes since the last LGBTQ+ month,
yet last night ITV local NewsPR had a LGBTQ+ mental health item.

Perhaps it is in response to the Nashville mass shooter having LGBTQWERTY mental health issues? The one taken out by the police and who now has the personal pronouns of ‘Was’ and ‘Were’?

Earlier on the ITV page
this story was tranding
“Rhema Church London spent £95,000 of charity money on holidays and gym memberships, report finds”
they have *deleted it* .. dunno why
It seems 100% genuine 8 year story

Actually the church comes out of South Africa and the free spending pastor is a white South African, Pastor Martin Phelps
I still expect that the exploited congregation were largely black
Well the first BRICS non petro Dollar transaction has taken place and it was a transaction for LNG between France and a Chinese company using Qatari or Saudi Gas.
It’s probably the hottest news and yet the media is ignoring it in favour of trivia.
People on other forums are all over it though with some reporting their banks are limiting withdrawals and that they cannot buy treasuries.
Biden is talking about ‘punishing’ Saudi’ and also invading Mexico, ostensibly to sort out the migration cartels, but that’s been ignored by the mafia Democrats for years, more likely it’s a message that they better not go ahead and join BRICS as they intend.
The consequence of the world moving to Yuan or another reserve currency won’t be overnight, but the US will find it impossible to control inflation and unfortunately we being so closely tied to them will also suffer. Inflation is high now, but it’s not going to get any better, and we might end up like the Weimar republic with all the hyper inflation they suffered.
We have muppets in power, more interested with the number of rainbow unicorns dancing on the head of a pin, and while they have clowned around the grown ups in China and Russia have been quiety plotting our overthrow. The muppets will not know what to do and I fear they will reach out to the military as the only solution they think they have.
Thoughtful
I don’t think the army has the capacity to help the civil power if trouble came . And I think the civil power will too busy being educated by Louise Casey – to take on widespread summer disorder next time …..

Adverts tonight are running at 70 % black men married / in a realtionship with white women.
Despite the massive provable statistics on afro carribean men and their endemic misogyny, domestic violence and prevalence for creating multiple single families.
This demographic, statistical complete and utter lie is IMO a barefaced, brazen, hate crime against the indigenous population dedicated to convincing gullible white girls of the shit they want to peddle.
If you want to see an example of domestic bliss and harmony have a look at the annual Notting Hill carnival crimefest.
Piers Morgan interview with Stormy Daniels postponed
Piers Morgan had been due to interview former porn star Stormy Daniels tonight on his TalkTV show, but he has just tweeted that it’s been postponed “due to some security issues that have arisen”.
In case you need a reminder, Daniels is key to this case – she claims she had an adulterous affair with Donald Trump, and it is said she was paid $130,000 to keep quiet. The payment was legal, but Trump allegedly recorded it as a business expense. Falsifying business records is illegal in New York.

Abba fans were asked not to wear Afro wigs over claims they are ‘culturally insensitive’. It led to a debate online about cultural appropriation. What counts as cultural appropriation and why? How can people appreciate things from other cultures without being accused of appropriating?”
9 likes
Riposte So warnings are issued for people not to wear afro wigs to the Abba experience because it will be considered cultural appropriation.
By the same logic, can I assume that anyone attending who has naturally black or afro hair will not have had it straightened or lightened..?

Dane-Geld
A.D. 980-1016
It is always a temptation to an armed and agile nation
To call upon a neighbour and to say: —
“We invaded you last night–we are quite prepared to fight,
Unless you pay us cash to go away.”
And that is called asking for Dane-geld,
And the people who ask it explain
That you’ve only to pay ’em the Dane-geld
And then you’ll get rid of the Dane!
It is always a temptation for a rich and lazy nation,
To puff and look important and to say: —
“Though we know we should defeat you, we have not the time to meet you.
We will therefore pay you cash to go away.”
And that is called paying the Dane-geld;
But we’ve proved it again and again,
That if once you have paid him the Dane-geld
You never get rid of the Dane.
It is wrong to put temptation in the path of any nation,
For fear they should succumb and go astray;
So when you are requested to pay up or be molested,
You will find it better policy to say: —
“We never pay any-one Dane-geld,
No matter how trifling the cost;
For the end of that game is oppression and shame,
And the nation that pays it is lost!”

The USA, already pretty much a pile of garbage has lowered the bar even more with the obvious spurious political assassination attempt on both Trump and the Republican Party.
It looks very much like the US is under the control of a strange mix of mafia, IRA, Soros and Marxist cuckoos in the Dem machine.
The question is, will the population let this go by and suck it up or will it lead to what I can envisage as inevitable civil war?
There is not little doubt that the Dems are fixing everything they can, legally or otherwise to retain a grip on controlling the Country. And will undoubtedly make sure then next election is fixed. It’s straight out if the mafia playbook.
Over to you US citizens, it’s your future and the future of your children in the balance now!
This sort of devious power grabbing behaviour only worked for a while for Cromwell in this Country for instance.

You just know that had said teenager been found to be a Communist or a rabid Labour Party supporter the report would have either not seen the light of day or the poor soul would have been a psychological victim of capitalist exploitation.
To be sure journalists and reporters are entitled to have political views but those views should NEVER be discernible to their audience. These days you don’t need to wonder.

Well the first BRICS non petro Dollar transaction has taken place and it was a transaction for LNG between France and a Chinese company using Qatari or Saudi Gas.
It’s probably the hottest news and yet the media is ignoring it in favour of trivia.
People on other forums are all over it though with some reporting their banks are limiting withdrawals and that they cannot buy treasuries.
Biden is talking about ‘punishing’ Saudi’ and also invading Mexico, ostensibly to sort out the migration cartels, but that’s been ignored by the mafia Democrats for years, more likely it’s a message that they better not go ahead and join BRICS as they intend.
The consequence of the world moving to Yuan or another reserve currency won’t be overnight, but the US will find it impossible to control inflation and unfortunately we being so closely tied to them will also suffer. Inflation is high now, but it’s not going to get any better, and we might end up like the Weimar republic with all the hyper inflation they suffered.
We have muppets in power, more interested with the number of rainbow unicorns dancing on the head of a pin, and while they have clowned around the grown ups in China and Russia have been quiety plotting our overthrow. The muppets will not know what to do and I fear they will reach out to the military as the only solution they think they have.

Despite the massive provable statistics on afro carribean men and their endemic misogyny, domestic violence and prevalence for creating multiple single families.

Piers Morgan interview with Stormy Daniels postponed
Piers Morgan had been due to interview former porn star Stormy Daniels tonight on his TalkTV show, but he has just tweeted that it’s been postponed “due to some security issues that have arisen”.
In case you need a reminder, Daniels is key to this case – she claims she had an adulterous affair with Donald Trump, and it is said she was paid $130,000 to keep quiet. The payment was legal, but Trump allegedly recorded it as a business expense. Falsifying business records is illegal in New York.
Morgan didn’t give any further details, just adding: “Hope she’s OK”.
