BBC also? Nah, just close it down. Stick a fork in it, it’s done.
Just watched.
LOL.
Meanwhile the BBC DU’h is hiring hand of ham fist.
The new leader of the SNP gave a speech today. Listening to the words, the phrases, the pauses, the turns of phrase, it sounded just like wee Burnie was speaking, but in a lower voice.
Perhaps the real leader hasn’t changed at all. They just stay behind the scenes, writing speeches for the front man/ woman.
But as for the financial scandal engulfing these self-righteous, sanctimonious hypocrites, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch.
BBC front page headline news:
Ralph Yarl: Andrew Lester, accused of shooting black teen, is in custody
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65316073
‘Mr Lester, who is white, allegedly shot Ralph Yarl, 16, who is black, once in the head and once in the arm last Thursday night. The boy survived.’
Story from America. Mr Lester is 84. Not mentioned in the article. The boy survived.
Picture of white Mr Lester included.
Nowhere to be seen on the BBC front page. Have to check regions to find it:
Tottenham shooting: Two charged with murder of teenager
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-london-65299220
Straightforward deliberate murder. Victim is dead. Accused names are Tyrese Barnett and Leo Reid. No mention of their colour and no pictures.
Black Lives Matter BBC ?. Clearly not. You don’t care one bit if they die or not. You only care when you can blame a white man.
This situation and the anti-white racist discrimination driving it is getting out of control. And OFCOM are fully complicit.
So I checked a bit about the murders in Londonistan this year and found this picture:
https://www.murdermap.co.uk/victims/murders-london-2023-total-how-many/
Only 2 English sounding names in the whole list. The first one I checked – Shaun McEvoy – was murdered by a man called ‘Dedan Simmons’. Nobody shows me a picture of him either.
This entire racist, Leftist farce of trying to make us think the biggest problem is white people killing black people is going to destroy Western society. I strongly suspect the huge wedge the Democrats have driven through society with the racist BLM movement – aided by people such as the BBC – will be partly responsible for the fear this 84 year old man had when he pulled the trigger.
Just checking the front page again and at the BBC, the Fox News defamation case out-of-court settlement is top world news today !!.
So I did a search for ‘Fox News’ and ‘BBC’. I got SIX about this case and ZERO about the Capitol video stories and how all that extremely relevant footage was kept secret from Judges and Juries during the trials.
The entire BBC and OFCOM are an absolute disgrace. They have a mandate to be impartial when reporting the news and that is the justification for forcing people to pay for them. They are deviod of any actual ethics. They just fake them when it suits them.
JohnC
Take care, I understand that OfCon are after government permission to break into our emails .
The government do that already. They monitor EVERYTHING we do.
Mostly to catch people intending to visit Alans Snackbar – but we will never be told that. Instead the BBC infer (but don’t directly say because they know it is a blatant lie) that the far-right are the biggest threat.
BBC ,
Let`s go to the very beginning , a very good place to start .
You , BBC are infested by Gramscians .
You also adhere to the Saul Alinski method of traducing anyone not of your stripe .
So your so called comedies are not comedies , they are social engineering attacks on those who you think are Wrong Thinkers . You are bullies . Again I say you are bullies . The whole ethos of the BBC is bullying . Not even in a straightforward way , it`s a devious way . like a coward .
You BBC are bullies and cowards and any on this site can take you one and show you and the public for what you are .
If we had a public service broadcaster that was liberal/left
and a public service broardcaster that was right wing/ libertarian
then that might be fair .
But we have the BBC . So definitely not fair .
At time of writing, the BBC shows no interest as Chicago goes up in flames.
Below, a mob of black youths savagely attack a white woman.
Ahhh – the old ‘you can’t fight racism with more racism’ excuse to stop people pointing out violent black racist behaviour.
They said the same thing about why we should not mention it is black people carrying out the racist attacks on Asians.
Possibly the pinnacle of the warped Left hypocrisy and double standards. They are the most disgusting racists – but they are so far up their own backsides in their ‘group-think’, I honestly don’t think they even realise.
Kneel?
Twerk?
Build a mosque?
More youth clubs?
Lets go Brandon ! I feel sorry for the kids though, after all they didn’t get to vote for the crazed loon who is now the Mayor, but the victim here did and she must be very happy with what was almost certainly her choice of political leaderhip!
And, here we go again:

The BBC are pro anything that helps to destroy the UK and / or breakup/fragment society. The blacks having a propensity to intolerance and argumentative, threatening behaviour, are the most gullible. Admirably suiting the BBC’s endeavours.
A match made in heaven. Probably why the BBC condone importation of many more blacks.

Be afraid, this will affect us all :
“House Speaker Kevin McCarthy pledged on Monday to pass legislation to raise the nation’s debt ceiling — but on condition of capping future federal spending at 1% — as he lashed out at President Biden for refusing to engage in budget-cutting negotiations to prevent a debt crisis.
In a high-profile speech at the New York Stock Exchange, McCarthy, the Republican leader who is marking his 100th day as speaker, said the nation’s debt load is a “ticking time bomb” and Mr. Biden is “missing in action” as the deadline nears to raise the debt limit.
“Make no mistake: the longer President Biden waits to be sensible, to find an agreement, the more likely it becomes that this administration will bumble into the first default in our nation’s history,”
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/kevin-mccarthy-debt-ceiling-bill-spending-cuts-biden-new-york-stock-exchange-speech/
“Fiscal crisis nears as McCarthy takes debt ceiling plan to Wall Street

https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/21/well/live/double-masking-covid.html
And what has the biased bbc to say about it ?
hmm:
“What will the US do now? For most of us, the impact should be barely noticeable – at least in the first few months”
and, of course a let off for Biden:
“US debt has risen regardless of administration”
Then halfway down the page we find:
“Then, economic catastrophe
Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has estimated that special measures can buy time for the US until at least June, at which point the government will no longer be able to pay its bills.
That is the scenario many analysts see as a true economic catastrophe.
In the event, some say authorities would have to do as much as they can to avoid default. That would mean finding ways to make interest payments while other obligations go unpaid, such as defence contractor payments; Social Security cheques, received by retirees across the country; and salaries of government employees, including the military.
Even something as basic as weather forecasts could be affected, since so many rely on data from the government-funded National Weather Service.
A default could ruin the country’s trustworthiness, roiling global financial markets, where US debt is heavily traded and has traditionally been viewed as low risk. ”

No bbc its not about white shooting black, and p’ing people off with your “reporting”.
Its only about a person shooting a person! This isn’t racist, so stop your stupid “reporting”!!
So you steal a U.S. election – and then you deflect . You know the msm will not investigate or even question the legitimacy of the result .
You rubbish the cheated candidate
You declare a demonstration an ‘insurrection ‘
You hold huge investigations into the ‘insurrection ‘
You hold show trials of protesters .
You sentence protesters to huge prison sentences
You challenge the only media outfit questioning the result
You try to take the media outfit to a show trial
You use the DOJ ( fbi) as your attack dog
And you continue to deflect .

It’s a BBC led SOP.

Over 50K pounds – MPs on 89K
Yep,. not much really is it Marky, but then that’s why it’s officially a part time job and MPs are expected to work a second job and have an alternative income.
Maybe that is a better way of doing things, that if you don’t have an actual employment first you can’t stand to be elected as an MP that way we get rid of the professional politicians !

Would you believe it !. After months of murders and stabbing with the perpertrators usually ‘too young to be identified’ we suddenly get pictures of 3 murderers in just 2 days from the BBC !!!.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-65319833
And this time it’s another elderly gentleman who clearly has some kind of mental issues – but we don’t mention either of those things:
Here’s he is:
The only thing confusing me is that I’ve seen dozens of articles about murders on the BBC in recent years where all we see are their black victims who were really good boys and loved everybody – yet all the murderers (according to the BBC anyway) seem to be white ???.
In the words of Sir Keir Starmer: public sector reform will take longer because it always does edition
Unusually for our Starmer-curious Times newspaper of late, this morning it doesn’t go frontpage news with the Labour leader’s lastest asseverations.
By dint of which – we suspect – the Times takes up the laggard spot, bringing up the rear, consigned to act as rear gunner, in the BBC online press title line up. The wooden spoon And Finally position is habitually awarded by the BBC to the jokey blokey Daily Star. Yet today we see the former Thunderer bannished to the naughty chair.
Top spot on the prize podium goes to teacher’s new pet the left-leaning ‘i’ newspaper: NHS targets will return if Starmer becomes PM.
Starmer’s NHS pledge – is the BBC’s positive sounding spin picked from today’s newspaper headlines. However, their own news website Heath tab – where one would think one would read just about every utterance Starmer wanted to get off his chest, instead prioritises: End racial disparities in maternal deaths – MPs
Time now must be long over-due for a BBC dedicated Race news tab? There’s certainly a potential space for one available on the news website since their Coronavirus tab disappeared into the ether.
This so-called Pledge is of interest to potential putative NHS patients (or victims – depending how you look at it) only in as far as confirming for us – just as we always suspected – that Sir Keir sees himself as a Tony Blair re-tread.
Labour leader pledges to reintroduce Blair-style targets (‘i’)
We did enjoy Sir Keir’s lawerly rallying call to low expectations where our public sector blob is concerned: ‘There are things that can be done immediately and (some) change will take longer.. because reforming public services always does’ (‘i’) – this somewhat defeatist talk comes from the fomerly sooner-harder-longer chap – when he was in full-blown prosecution mode rather than having to mitigate his future responsibilty.
Let me think… a pro-EU PM Starmer could certainly award public sector payrises tout suite – but getting the buggers to work more efficiently is a job that has mañana written all over it.
Something tells me (it’s wisdom gained of experience) that our Sir Keir won’t be about to tackle NHS failings and the causes of NHS failings…
The NHS is broken, declares Starmer. One in five goes to A&E because they cannot get a GP appointment, claims Labour leader (Telegraph) – he’s not far wrong there.
And why can’t they get a GP appointment? Well, we like to throw the odd brickbats at our former family quacks but I’m guessing the queue for A&E services consisting as it does of tired, poor, huddled masses (to paraphase the Statue of Liberty poem) yearning for free-at-the-point-of-access no questions asked healthcare… might not be signed up with a GP… let me think… ‘cos they ain’t UK citizens?
In further health ‘not news’ – at least for those of us who don’t consume the mainstream media – and take it all in – as though we were wide-eyed naive jejune impressionable unquestioning lab rats: ‘The Covid-19 pandemic was, more likely than not, to be the result of a research-related incident’ China started developing Covid vaccines weeks before virus emerged, says report (Telegraph)
Think about this… the so-called Tory press are fretting today how a few spoilt brat (Allison Pearson’s term for them in the Telegraph) hobbyist eco protesters keep getting away with their stunts, despite the Tory government (Sun & Mail). Meanwhile the left-leaning titles agitate about dangerous criminals released to commit more crime (Metro) and about black kids killing one another with knives, not so much despite as because of the Tory government (Mirror)
This is the same goverment, mind you, that could stop half the economy and lock us in our homes for two years at the drop of a hat.
And yet Starmer basically admits even he can’t reform the NHS anytime soon.
Talking about the Fox News case on Toady this morning, a stooge American interviewee blurted out that the New York Times, Washington Post, CNN, and others are all staffed mainly by the Liberal Left !!!!!!!!!
He’ll be on the naughty step and not be invited back any time soon.
“The NHS is broken, declares Starmer. One in five goes to A&E because they cannot get a GP appointment, claims Labour leader (Telegraph) – he’s not far wrong there.”

Beijing: Twelve held after Beijing hospital fire kills 29
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-65320160
“Angry and concerned relatives rushed to the hospital hours later, only learning of the fire from local news reports” – I’m sure they would have rang you soonest, after collecting bodies and looking after existing patients, honestly bbc looking for a blame immediately
Twelve people have been detained by police for questioning after a hospital fire in Beijing killed at least 29, most of them patients.
The fire, among the deadliest in recent years, broke out in Changfeng Hospital at about 13:00 local time on Tuesday.
Angry and concerned relatives rushed to the hospital hours later, only learning of the fire from local news reports.
“Seven or eight hours have passed and I didn’t even receive a call,” one relative told China Youth Daily.

“Truths turn into dogmas the instant that they are disputed. Thus every man who utters a doubt defines a religion. And the scepticism of our time does not really destroy the beliefs, rather it creates them; gives them their limits and their plain and defiant shape. We who are Liberals once held Liberalism lightly as a truism. Now it has been disputed, and we hold it fiercely as a faith. We who believe in patriotism once thought patriotism to be reasonable, and thought little more about it. Now we know it to be unreasonable, and know it to be right. We who are Christians never knew the great philosophic common sense which inheres in that mystery until the anti-Christian writers pointed it out to us. The great march of mental destruction will go on. Everything will be denied. Everything will become a creed. It is a reasonable position to deny the stones in the street; it will be a religious dogma to assert them. It is a rational thesis that we are all in a dream; it will be a mystical sanity to say that we are all awake. Fires will be kindled to testify that two and two make four. Swords will be drawn to prove that leaves are green in summer. We shall be left defending, not only the incredible virtues and sanities of human life, but something more incredible still, this huge impossible universe which stares us in the face. We shall fight for visible prodigies as if they were invisible. We shall look on the impossible grass and the skies with a strange courage. We shall be of those who have seen and yet have believed.”

Official statistics released today, Thursday 6 October, show there were 155,841 hate crimes recorded by the police in England and Wales (2021-2022), a 24 per cent increase compared with the previous year.
The majority of hate crimes were racially motivated, accounting for over two-thirds of such offences (70%; 109,843 offences). Religious hate crimes increased by 37 per cent, sexual orientation hate crimes increased by 41%, disability hate crimes by 43%, and transgender identity hate crimes by 56%.

The MSM likes keep things short, snappy and… there’s a reason.
The MSM no longer reports. Context and facts are complications.
So short and snappy allows inaccuracy, gotcha, opinion and, crucially, working up the mob to gain traction. Maybe a nit of post action extra dissing and editing to keep things bubbling.
Mehdi Hasan was a BBC fave go-to cattle wrangler. As nasty a bit of work in a sharp suit as is possible to imagine.
The BBc liked him for that, the mob he worked up and the one degree of separation they afforded them whilst setting all the girls in the W1A cubicle gardens hearts’ aflutter. And the wimmin.
Then he went to America, mucked about with podcasts with about as much success as Sopes and BS, or Nish with cable humour.
So of course MSNBC picked him up. I suspect MSNBC is a BBC TNI partner.
https://www.racket.news/p/lee-fang-vs-mehdi-hasan-round-2/comments?
A Comment:
“I couldn’t help think as I read this that Matt couldn’t have done much damage to his reputation because the interview was MSNBC. They lie constantly. The only people that actually watch MSNBC are talking heads and paid activists. Hasan is more of a member of the so-called press than the actual press. No sane person would ever assume anyone working for MSNBC cared about, much less reported, actual facts……”
So, perfect TNI for BBC NA.
In the interest of balance, counter comments are worth reading to appreciate a spread of opinion. Any hostile remain, though are as expected.
I also suspect the BBC would not have Matt or Lee on any time soon.
This would be worth running by Springster, ECU, or OFCOM for comment, but they are all in the same sewer as Mehdi.
Who will eat them last.
Hey, they got Sopes, then Katty, then Nick, then Springster, then Saz, then Wen… oh.
Please check the data yourself (don’t rely on others or what I say), but seems to me that he (Mehdi Hasan) has painted the data in a better light to deflect the story.
The Numbers Don’t Lie: White Far-Right Terrorists Pose a Clear Danger to Us All

This story shows how to make data not seem as bad by grouping and looking for a story that fits your point of view. Please look at the data and decide yourself. I suggest you look at it and think of what trend you would determine, then read Mehdi Hasan interpretation.
106 vs 119 killings
During the September 11 attacks in 2001, 2,996 people were killed and more than 6,000 others wounded, which is missing from the graph.
Yet the numbers don’t lie — even if the Islamophobes do. “Since September 12, 2001,” noted a recent report prepared for Congress by the Government Accountability Office, “the number of fatalities caused by domestic violent extremists has ranged from 1 to 49 in a given year. … Fatalities resulting from attacks by far-right wing violent extremists have exceeded those caused by radical Islamist violent extremists in 10 of the 15 years, and were the same in 3 of the years since September 12, 2001.” Imagine that.

I apologise in advance for becoming a bit of a one trick pony, but I keep noticing the astonishing amount of BAME characters appearing in increasingly unlikely scenarios. So…
ITV have been showing a three-part series, The Hunt for Raoul Moat. You remember, the repulsive psychopath who shot his ex and her boyfriend and then shot a PC in the face blinding him and leading, about 18 months later, to the poor chap’s suicide. The whole episode became something of a pathetic pantomime when the half-witted alcoholic, ex footballer, Paul Gascoigne, arrived on the scene wanting to chat to Moat and take him fishing… xxxxing idiot…
What I hadn’t been aware of was that one of the leading detectives in the hunt for Moat had been a young Asian woman. Gosh, she was good; really compassionate with the family of the murdered man, intelligent, honest and upright. She seemed almost too good to be true… I did a little digging.
It transpires that this detective, this paragon of virtue…didn’t actually exist. They had made her up. Well, blow me down…
They cover themselves during the opening credits by acknowledging that some situations and characters have been invented for “dramatic effect”.
I remember another real life detective series of a couple of years ago, Manhunt; all about the hunt for the elusive “Nightstalker”, a housebreaking sex offender, who terrorised the elderly in the south London area for a couple of decades. He was a real pervert, singling out vulnerable older people to burgle and rape.
In this series half the detective team appeared to be female and /or BAME…This time though they made a mistake and a day after the series finished there was a documentary about the real Manhunt and they interviewed all those police officers involved. You know, suddenly all those female and BAME detectives became white men.
The only real BAME character in this whole horror show was the Nightstalker himself.
Strange…

“If you tell Google that you would like to see images of ‘Black men’ the images that come up are all portrait photos of black men. Indeed, it takes more than a dozen rows of images before anybody who isn’t black comes up in the images. By contrast a search for ‘White men’ first throws up an image of David Beckham – who is white – but then the second is of a black model. From there every line of five images has either one or two black men in the line-up. Many of the images of white men are of people convicted of crimes with taglines such as ‘Beware of the average white man’ and ‘White men are bad’.”
― Douglas Murray, The Madness of Crowds: Gender, Race and Identity

Story on the bbc front page now. “I was born from rape but it won’t define me”. All credit to the girl and well done for making a good life from an unimaginably bad start.
But what is the point of the story, and why front page? All I can conclude is that this is intended to point out that the mass rape and abuse of young white girls by men of a “predominately filthy savage background” can have a nice fluffy outcome and can we be nice to the invaders now please?
Propaganda, and people will fall for it.
Turkey’s ‘marry your rapist’ law has taken women’s rights right back to the 1950s
To say this is alarming is an understatement. With the president conveying this message, it will only be a matter of time before society buys into the idea that women’s rights don’t matter

I’ve always been appalled at the fact my Turkish father’s aunt was forced to marry the man who raped her when she was a teenager. I try to console myself with the fact this was a Turkish village in the 1950s and that a lot has changed since then, but with a “marry-your-rapist” bill set to be introduced in Turkey in a matter of days, I’m having difficulty.
Long but probs worth it (Title of my sex tape for all Brooklyn 99 fans).

Ofcom is today seeking views on whether to remove some or all of the stricter advertising rules that apply to commercially-funded public service broadcasters.
All UK broadcasters are subject to restrictions on the quantity and scheduling of advertising on their channels. But under rules introduced over 30 years ago, the public service broadcasting (PSB) channels – ITV, STV, Channel 4, S4C and Channel 5 – are subject to tighter advertising restrictions than non-PSB commercial channels, such as ITV2, 5USA and Pick.
Following a call for evidence last year – and having considered the potential impact on audiences and the wider market – we have provisionally concluded that stricter advertising restrictions on PSB channels are no longer justified or proportionate.
So today, we are consulting on two options:
To bring PSB advertising rules fully into line with those for non-PSB channels.
To bring PSB advertising rules into line with those for non-PSB channels, while retaining safeguards that limit the number of internal breaks allowed in programmes. This is our preferred option.
Under both options, all PSB and non-PSB channels would be subject to the same limit of showing no more than an average of 12 minutes of television advertising and teleshopping spots per hour – of which no more than nine minutes may be television advertising.
In each case, existing restrictions on the frequency of advertising in films, news and children’s programmes would be kept in place.
Under the second option, the PSB channels would remain subject to stricter rules on the number of internal breaks permitted in programmes. This would mean, for example, that a half-hour programme on a PSB channel would still only be allowed one advertising break, while a half-hour programme on a non-PSB channel would continue to be allowed two breaks.
Subject to responses to our consultation, we may also consider maintaining the status quo.
Why are we considering these changes?
There have been significant changes in how television is distributed and watched since these rules were first introduced three decades ago.
There is already a vast choice of alternatives to linear broadcast television, including subscription video on-demand services and free advertising-supported television channels which are increasingly drawing audiences’ attention.
It is our current view that providing PSB channels with the same freedom in advertising minutage and scheduling as other commercial channels would not significantly affect the range of services available to viewers, or materially affect audiences’ perceptions of their quality.
We also consider that our other regulatory tools – such as setting licence obligations – are an effective means of maintaining the high levels of quality that audiences expect from PSB services. 😂
Allowing the PSB channels slightly greater flexibility in the scheduling of advertising may also strengthen their commercial position as they continue to manage their transition to digital-led organisations, and afford them greater opportunity to monetise their content.
What do viewers think?
Most people we spoke to through our deliberative research and in our omnibus survey had limited awareness of the current differences in the amount, and the frequency of advertising shown on PSB channels versus other commercial channels.
Similarly, viewers had not necessarily noticed an increase in advertising minutes on PSB channels following the period of National Mourning, when they were allowed the same advertising limits as non-PSB channels so they could recoup lost minutage.
Audiences said they were more likely to tolerate additional advertising if they could be assured that the additional revenue generated would be invested in content. Similarly, viewers were more accepting of the potential changes when they recognised that it might not be as disruptive to their viewing experience as they had initially feared.
However, our findings indicate that an increase in the frequency of advertising breaks on the PSB channels may be more of a concern. This is why our preferred option for consultation is to retain limits on the frequency of in-programme ad breaks.

There have indeed been significant changes, yet the BBC remains doggedly force funded by the Govt.

Emotive piece on housing shortage on the home page:
“More than two million children in England are living in overcrowded accommodation with little or no personal space, while some 300,000 share beds with family members, new analysis suggests. The biggest cause of overcrowding, says the NHF, is a chronic shortage of social housing.”
Going by the article, the problem seems to solely affect young mums with daughters. First up is Joanna Szablewska, with daughter Deni. “As well as being a keen pianist, Deni is on a scheme for talented singers run by the Royal Opera House.”
Ah but of course she is. BBC sampling methods revealed in all their glory.
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-65312086
Apparently, a recent survey found that 50% of the daughters of young mums living in overcrowded accommodation were keen pianists and on schemes for talented singers run by the Royal Opera House. Amongst mixed-race daughters, this figure rises to 128%. The survey also found that more than 75% of said daughters also had aspirations to become architects, with a further 66% wanting to become teachers so that Kids Can Be Taught By People Who Look Like Me ™.

A sneering arrogant, GuardianBubbleworld BBC reporter is exactly what we expected
Not the BBC, but a Guardian hit piece on Suella Braverman last week, where she’s described as “cruel and unusual”:
“Her comments that the members of sexual grooming gangs are ‘almost all British-Pakistani, who hold cultural attitudes completely incompatible with British values’ were deliberately loose and consciously inflammatory, and were not based on the facts […] Ms Braverman’s recklessness is not careless. It is a strategy. She doesn’t do nuance, accuracy or thoughtfulness.”
It’s been a long time since The Guardian knew what accuracy was. They decided to not bother reporting the further sentencing last week of child rapists Abdul Rehman, Mohammed Kammer, Nahman Mohammed, Wiqas Mahmud and Mohammed Imran Ibrar. Their last report on the Huddersfield grooming was over three years ago.
That’s the sort of nuance and thoughtfulness the Guardian do.

cos if you don’t you are sending the message that crime is OK, and thus causing more crime in society.
Of course consider your own safety
eg against a big thug you whip and your phone and video him and the car he gets into etc,

…………………………..
According to the report, children as young as 11 were “raped by multiple perpetrators, abducted, trafficked to other cities in England, beaten and intimidated”. Taxi drivers were a “common thread”, picking up children for sex from schools and care homes.
…..
In Rusholme, Rotherham, Peterborough, Oxford, Rochdale, Bristol, Telford, Newcastle, Aylesbury, Huddersfield, and Keighley, the children who should be most protected by the state were hung out to dry by servants of that state. The authorities ignored, covered up, and swept under the carpet hundreds, if not thousands, of horrifying crimes.

A few days ago, our esteemed fact-checker and moralist extraordinaire criticised the Budweiser boycott, saying:
“Bud Light has one crazy PR woman
boycotting them harms thousands of innocent workers
Same as BDS boycott against Israel harms normal innocent people too.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.”
Firstly, a single ‘crazy PR woman’ does not launch a major advertising campaign without the knowledge and backing of the company. She would have been hired precisely because of her woke ‘progressive’ views.
Then, our fact-checker doesn’t seem to understand that we are in a fight-to-the-death culture war, and all’s fair in love and war.
If the boycott is successful, a few employees may lose their jobs but, by the same token, new jobs will open up in rival beer companies. Indeed, some new companies have already launched to fill the gap, such as Ultra Right Beer (don’t you love capitalism?).
The Culture Wars have moved into the boardrooms, PR, HR and marketing departments of corporate America (and UK).
The rage against Bud is a magnificent popular uprising by the voiceless against the all-powerful, ubiquitous woke Left that has infiltrated all our institutions.
In the clip below, the repulsive Whoopi-Cushion-Goldberg (sounds like a fart and looks like where farts emerge from) attacks the boycott. A conservative commentator then reacts perfectly to the grotesque lardbucket.
For those in a hurry, Whoopi’s rant starts at 2’15” and the brilliant response comes at 2’50”. (Basically, YOU LEFTIES started this boycott culture, YOU politicised everything, now suddenly YOU don’t want companies to be political?!?)
Just cos lefties do Cancel Culture
.. It doesn’t mean that righties should start copying them
It’s important point that businesses should be FREE to make their own legal choices, even if they are wrong
Instead of constantly looking over their shoulder in fear of MOBS intenet on INTIMIDATION

@GreenStew – So just let the Left win the culture war?
This is about much more than just beer, or the Trans movement.
This is a popular revolt, this is the people shouting “We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take this anymore!”
Elections change nothing, the media are all on the other side, boycotts are one of the very few weapons the Right side has at its disposal. All our institutions, including so-called conservative parties, are in obsequious, terrified thraldom to the woke Left.
Consumer power is one way of fighting back.
I, for one, will never consume any Anheuser-Busch (now to be known as Tranheuser) products again.
You know they AB-Inbev make hundreds of beers
eg Boddingtons Bitter
are you boycotting them all ?
Their recent shareprice peaked at €61 it’s now €60
It was at €90 4 years ago
Bud Light is about 4th world selling beers
cos Chinese beers sell more
I’ll start with Bud Light. Maybe switch to Lancashire Craft Beers not to hurt Lancashire. There ARE alternatives; time to get creative.
We have to fight with the weapons we have, even if they’re imperfect.
Oh, and AB-Inbev’s not even American, it’s Belgian.
Next you’ll be telling us not to boycott the BBC in case employees get axed. GOOD!!! Then they can get useful jobs, for example working in a craft brewery.
Budweiser is owned by AB-Inbev a global corp quoted in many countries
eg NYSE and Belgium
I don’t think it belongs to one country
In New York the price is down $1 off this years peak

Animal Rising (formerly known as Animal Rebellion) is a British animal activist movement with the stated aim of compelling government action towards animal rights and a plant-based food system.[1] Their justification for the introduction of such a system is the impact of animal agriculture on climate change, species extinction and ecosystem breakdown. It has around 100 organisers and was founded in London in June 2019 by 12 people, including Daniel Kidby, Dora Hargitai, and Alex Lockwood of the University of Sunderland.[2][3]
Animal Rebellion make two demands of the UK Government:[8]
The UK Government supports farmers and fishing communities to move away from animal farming and fishing as part of an urgent and immediate transition to a plant-based food system
The UK Government commits to rewild the freed-up land and ocean as part of a broader programme of wildlife restoration and carbon drawdown

….great that there are people being as proactive as you guys are. I too once betted on horses, I too once ate animal body parts, hen periods, and consumed bovine baby food, but once I was given the information about what all that entailed those days were over. Animal agriculture is a cancer of this planet, and it needs to end, all animal abuse needs to end, let’s end it.
You are heroes, not just for animals, but for basic decency & compassion. For too long people have simply turned a blind eye to the unspeakable exploitation of animals, the extreme cruelty and abuse. Your actions have put this in the mainstream media, where it belongs.
….Well done for drawing attention to the cruelty involved in horse racing. Just listened to Jeremy Vine can’t believe the trainer of the horse that died on Saturday was blaming the protesters.. unbelievable. The horses are treated as commodities for human entertainment and to make money.
