BBC news channel going full on ‘crisis ‘ with the Raab – college green – probably the helicopter – doorstepping him ? Crap unknown ethnic journos interviewing other journos .
I hoped for some news but just a propaganda hit . Why the blue labour lot never react to this hostile stuff is beyond me. But I guess a conservative government would have dealt with it with force …
Sunak accused of delay over bullying probe into deputy PM
A report into alleged bullying by his deputy prime minister landed on Rishi Sunak’s desk yesterday morning. Dominic Raab faces eight formal complaints about his behaviour as a minister in various departments and No 10 had promised the swift publication of a lawyer’s report into the claims. But that failed to materialise, leaving the PM facing accusations of “dither and delay” from opponents. Former staff say it “extends the anxiety” for those who complained. Mr Raab denies bullying, saying he always “behaved professionally”. Mr Sunak must decide whether his deputy has broken ministerial rules and what action to take. For both men, it’s a moment of jeopardy, says our political editor Chris Mason. Read his analysis.

Percentage of blacks in the UK population…..4%
20 black MP’s out of 650…….3%
Proportion of Conservative black MP’s is lower than Labour but that is due to Conservative seats are generally in white suburban and rural areas whereas Labour seats tend to be in cities. So significant under representation is a myth.
Two of the above, Lammy and Abbot are a very poor advert for Black politicians.

Talking about myths, there is also the current news story of Russian ships looking for vulnerabilities in offshore energy installations. It’s a myth because these offshore wind farms are fully charted on publically available nautical charts, including cabling.

Turkey. Mein Kampf (Turkish: Kavgam) was widely available in Turkey selling up to 100,000 copies in just two months in 2005. Analysts and commentators believe the sales of the book to be related to a rise in nationalism and anti-U.S. sentiment.
Here is a quite alarming story which perhaps puts the mess the current mafia Democrat party has caused in the USA in a nutshell.
Things have become so bad between Israel and the USA that Israel has turned to China to broker a peace agreement with the Palestinians.
Let that sink in for a moment. For how many decades has America backed Israel to the hilt as their one almost extension of the USA mainland, a de facto US State for the Jews.
Now Bidens appalling mess so loved by the swivel eyed loons in the Media and British politics has abandoned Israel.
Not heard much about this in the media? Well I don’t suppose the BBC with its well known anti Israeli bias is going to alert anyone in Britain as to how bad the Biden (mal)administration is making US foreign affairs, but they are well aware of the situation because it’s been covered in the Grauniad.
It’s not just Israel and the Palestinians either, it’s Israel and Iran, and if China can pull off a peace agreement between those two as it did between Iran and Saudi, then it is going to make the USA look like a global irrelevance.
Yesterday Turkish Interior Minister Suleiman Soylu said America was hated by the whole world.
He has gained a lot of support for his courage and truthfulness because it pretty much sums up the disastrous mess Biden has caused with his Socialist presidency.
I could write an entire book on what is currently going wrong in America at the present time, however this is a page about the media in Britain and I can bet that none of these on going world affairs is being reported properly by the BBC.
“Things have become so bad between Israel and the USA that Israel has turned to China to broker a peace agreement with the Palestinians.” – China will pay both sides not to shoot each other.

This title is the “New York Times” bestseller – now in paperback. In “America Alone”, Mark Steyn uses his trademark wit, clarity of thought and flair for the apocalyptic, Mark Steyn to argue that America is the only hope against Islamic Terrorism. Steyn addresses the singular position in which America finds itself, surrounded by anti-Americanism on all sides. He gives us the brutal facts on these threats and why there is no choice but for America to fight for the cause of freedom – alone.
America Alone: The End of the World as We Know It
^^ Mark Steyn was hoping USA would fight the cause, but is now the cause of the cause to hate USA.
Steyn is absolutely catagorically 100% wrong ! America might have had a few bit players in Guantanamo but none of them were US citizens and they more or less tacitly went along with the 9/11 attacks. The Mafia Democrats are now allowing all manner of terrorists and secret intelligence agents from other countries across their open Southern border.
China on the other hand takes no cr** from the Muslims and builds large camps where they are taught to behave themselves in a civilised society.
If Muslims had been involved in a paedophile rape gang they would have been made useful as involuntary organ donors.
In America the victims like here would have told they were fauxbik or waycist or some such nonsense in order to divert the blame away from corrupt political elites.
Saudi Arabian representatives concern by the Western media lies about the treatment of the Uighurs visited the camps in China, and found that all the internees were jihadis, many of which had been fighting Jihad for ISIS and who had returned to China from Syria after Russia sorted them out.
The BBC is always careful to mislead over the Uighurs, never mentioning they are only a minority Islamic sect nor that the majority Muslims in China suffer no such internment. They attempt to protray China as inhumane and Islamofauxbik, but that is an outright disgusting lie.
We have a better chance of defeating Islamic terror with China running the world than we so with the mafia Democrats who would sell every White Westerner out in a heartbeat
Geo Political is getting interesting – China locks up Uighurs (Sunni Muslims) then goes to Saudi/Iran/Palestine/Yemen to broker peace deals – peace deals as in money pumped in to maintain routes of trade**
It’s finally happened. Buzzfeed News is shutting down. In an internal memo sent to employees this afternoon, Buzzfeed CEO Jonah Peretti confirmed the flailing news site has run out of road, with 15% of the broader Buzzfeed workforce laid off. Some journalists will be kept on at HuffPost – for now. Peretti adds that he “overinvested” in Buzzfeed News and didn’t “hold the company to higher standards for profitability“. Peretti could have figured this out sooner if he’d just read Guido for the last five years…
Peretti said:
“While layoffs are occurring across nearly every division, we’ve determined that the company can no longer continue to fund BuzzFeed News as a standalone organization.”

Why the Left’s Vision of Equity Is Flawed | Douglas Murray
“People demand that everyone must be treated equally , even if they are horribly bad at a job, being a person, rubbish at a role .. putting everyone on the same level, means no one will advance, infact, the standards are always lowered to cater for the less able and skilled.”
Poor old Douglas hasn’t seen the economic thermo nuclear bomb about to detonate in the West which will make all of these crazy ideas simply unworkable as people struggle in a nose diving standard of living to put bread on the table.
Those people who are still bleating about this rubbish are very likely to find themselves lynched – literally hung by the neck from a tree as being part of the group which led a country to the dire straits is is going to find itself in.
All of these crazy ideas will die as the Socialist mafia Democrats kill the country they are leading to anhilation.

Compare / contrast BBC reporting on US neighbourhood shootings this week:
16yr old boy shot —
“Protests erupted in Kansas City, Missouri, over the weekend after a homeowner shot a black teenager twice who rang their doorbell by mistake […] I do recognise the racial components of this case,” Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said. “I do recognise and understand the community’s concern and the community’s response to this particular incident.”
6 yr old girl & father shot —
“Police in North Carolina are searching for a man accused of shooting a 6-year-old girl and her father after their basketball rolled into the suspect’s yard […] Police have issued warrants for Mr Singletary’s arrest, said Gaston County Police Chief Stephen Zill in a statement on Wednesday. Chief Zill added that ‘this sort of violence will not stand.'”
Suspect in the 2nd case went into his house to get a gun (and is alleged to have previously assaulted his girlfriend with a sledgehammer). The shooter was black, the girl white and the BBC don’t include her photo. Some “community concerns” are more equal than others.

Complete with picture of explosion. Not the launch.
Classic BBC. The explosion is absolutely not the story here. The launch was a magnificent achievement and the rocket was intended to be completely lost. It was just that : a test flight to learn.
But of course the BBC hate Musk because he is right-wing. So they make sure everyone’s initial impression is that it failed and by using ‘Musk’s’ in the headline, Elon failed as well.
As usual you have to read the full article to get any idea of the truth.
I’m so sick of the BBC and their hate-based articles. As usual this one eventually tells the real story but they go out of their way to make you think otherwise.
And of course they don’t tell the full story out of any sense of journalistic ethics. They do it because if they can be proved to be so utterly biased from the actual information they give, they will get reformed and lose their compulsory funding.
That’s the only reason. They are Leftist activists playing a long-term political game. I despise their dirty ethics.

“Former World Snooker chairman Barry Hearn vows to help hundreds of fans sue Just Stop Oil protestor who disrupted a match at the Crucible by throwing orange powder on the table
Hearn plans to sue protester who disrupted World Snooker Championship”
Barry Hearn plans to pay for fans to sue the Just Stop Oil protester who disrupted the World Snooker Championship.
The first session of Monday’s match at the Crucible between Robert Milkins and Joe Perry was stopped after Edred Whittingham threw orange powder on the table.
Now former World Snooker chairman Hearn wants the 400 spectators who were ‘robbed’ of action to be compensated by taking the student to the small claims courts. ”
The development comes less than two weeks before a trial was set to begin.
A statement released by New Mexico special prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis said that “over the last few days… new facts were revealed” in the case, requiring further investigation.
How bad does this story stink ?.
Welcome to the USA where those who can afford big, nasty lawyers can bully their way out of charges.
‘Involuntary manslaughter is the killing of a human being without intent of doing so, either expressed or implied.’
He held the gun and pulled the trigger. How can he possibly not be guilty of manslaughter ?.
His lawyers have apparently claimed the gun’s trigger was modified to make a ‘misfire’ more likely. A misfire is when it DOESN’T shoot. And how did the FBI miss that when they confirmed it could not go off by accident ? (thus proving Baldwin to be a liar, but nobody mentions that).
And why would that cause the charges to be dropped ?. It should just be part of the evidence of the trial.
There should be an outcry about this – but he’s a darling of the MSM because he’s a Lefty activist who hatres Trump so they will keep quiet.
Involuntary manslaughter is for situations such as a motor accident resulting in death. A driver might have caused a death because of his bad driving. The driver never intended to injure or kill anyone but did cause a death and is to blame, hence involuntary manslaughter.
Baldwin’s case is totally different. He obviously never intended to kill or injure but are his actions blameworthy? The film set employed someone responsible for the guns, Baldwin had no reason to believe he was handling a gun that contained live ammunition. The Court seems to think so too.
Quite right Tomo : even blanks are very dangerous at close range.
I read earlier that Baldwin has the best legal team that money can buy and their first tactic is to bombard the prosecution with anything they – and the legions of junior researchers billing the hours – can come up with. To the point where it is basically bullying.
I disagree with you completely Flotsam. Baldwin took a real gun, pointed it at someone and pulled the trigger without knowing if it was loaded or not. There is no conceivable situation I can think of that excuses that from being manslaughter. Except in the lala land the USA has become. Anyone who has ever been involved with real firearms know that if someone hands you a gun, the first thing you ALWAYS do is check it is safe. There are no special rules for actors.
The court didn’t kick the charge out : the prosecution dropped it.
‘Prosecutors said on Thursday they will dismiss the involuntary manslaughter charges against Baldwin, but that the office would investigate further and that the charges could be refiled.’
What kind of nonsense is that ?. We all know they won’t. It stinks.

On a morning when we’re teased that the late historical novelist Hilary Mantel had been working on an ‘Austin mash-up‘ – no, that’s not the title for a tale about the demise of British Leyland – this was in fact to have been a book based on the plots of Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice in combination with those of her other novels. A sort of Hilary port-Mantel? Anyone?
Please yourselves… Pearls before swine… I say that, in the manner of some of those camp comic acts, the likes of Frankie Howerd or Lily Savage, who liked to bait their adoring audiences.
There’s a sort of convenient confluence of theme that might group these three news items into one portmanteau story:
Sunak accused of dithering over Raab bullying decision… allegations he bullied staff… Complaints into Raab’s behaviour from several civil servants were investigated… Colleagues of Raab, not involved in the inquiry, have said he could be “pretty belittling” and that he made a member of staff cry (BBC)
Ofsted promises changes after headteacher… took her own life while waiting for Ofsted to publish a report grading her school Inadequate. (BBC)
Blair-style NHS targets will return under Labour government Sir Keir Starmer says… “I’d like to begin see a difference straightaway,” he explained during a visit to York, a target seat in next month’s local elections. “But it will take time because reforming public services always does. (‘i’ newspaper)
To borrow a catchphase from disgraced Australian Rolf Harris… this coincidence of theme… can you see what it is yet?
Moving on… here’s a fascinating divergence in house-style we’ve noticed between our BBC and fellow travelling favourite newspaper the Guardian.
There’s some weird and wonderful and out of the (previously) ordinary crime cases that crop up these days – perhaps not all of them the preserve of recent arrivals over here in the UK.
Our BBC news web site don’t do a Crime tab – you may speculate on their reasoning there – but if they did it might be easier to find some of those here today, gone into the lost wasteland of regional news tomorrow, disappeared completely the next day reports.
Anyway this oddity looks to be homegrown: Man in court over castration broadcast website… Marius Gustavson, 45, from Tottenham, north London, is alleged to have performed extreme body modifications, including the removal of genitals. (BBC) – in those popular adverts when someone does something daft the tag line is “Should have gone to Specsavers” – how about this chap “Should have got a job at Tavistock clinic”
There’s mainly chaps involved in this bizarre case with what Al Murray the Pub Landlord might term “beautiful British names” – but who knows these days?
Where were we? Ah, odd crime cases and BBC/Guardian house-style divergence.
Cardiff: Mum accused of killing toddler through fasting… religious fasting during the Covid lockdown, a court has heard. Olabisi Abubakar, 42, was found “thin, malnourished and dehydrated” on a sofa bed alongside her son, Taiwo, in June 2020. (BBC) – clearly Lockdowns drove the population crazy – some more than others – but that’s a side issue. We note however the BBC declines to tell us anywhere in this report what denomination of religion was involved here.
‘That would be an ecumenical matter’ – to quote from Father Ted. In a bid to clean up Father Jack’s foul language ahead of a visit from the much feared Bishop Brennan, Father Ted desperately tries to equip the alcoholic priest with… go-to phrases (thank you Irish Indepenedent)
In contrast the Guardian seizes this opportunity with relish: ‘Deeply religious’ woman caused son to die through fasting, Cardiff court told… A devout Christian mother caused the death of her three-year-old son by making him join her in a religious fast (Guardian)
But there’s another layer to this woman’s behaviour which again the BBC has obfuscated: …at a time when she was fearful of Covid and worried about her immigration status, a jury has heard. Olabisi Abubakar, 42, an asylum seeker, is accused of the manslaughter of her son Taiwo (Guardian)
Am I really going to have to go to the Gruan of all places for those details the BBC is keen to sanitise?

Hypocrite’ Extinction Rebellion co-founder buys plastic-packaged fruit that’s been flown THOUSANDS of miles to her local Waitrose from around the world (before taking it all home in a diesel car)
A crowdfunding appeal by Extinction Rebellion is expected to hit £1m after £800,000 was raised in the first week.
The cash is to support its direct action in London with the group saying the cash will be used to fund living expenses of the rebels as they attempt to shut down major infrastructure.
Organisers say that the monthly living expenses amount to £400 for full-time rebels and £200 for part-time ones.
However it is thought the group will not apply for charity status or official funding.
The account below just about sums up the lazy, vacuous stance the beeboid elite make up at every turn!

‘Once people are BBC employees, they are bound by the BBC’s editorial rules of impartiality, but any opinions they’ve expressed before working for the BBC, in this case when they were at university, are completely irrelevant,’ said a spokesman.”
If I could be arsed, I’d uncover the mutitude of occasions when beeboids have turned up pre-beeb employment smeers, gaffes, infidelities, crimes etc., but I do in fact have a life…

This programme suggested that many reindeer populations are in steep decline because of climate change. It would have been more accurate to say that many reindeer populations are threatened by it.
There we have it : what they are all after. The BBC most of all. Awards.
That’s why all the stories are empathy-laden essays about civilians who have nowhere to live and charge their phones at generators so they can tell loved ones how much they love them.
You can be sure the BBC will award themselves a whole raft of them at some point.
These journalist scum don’t care one jot about the soldiers in a living hell at the front. Their easiest day is a hundred times worse then anything the civilians have to put up with.
Her story was initially corroborated by Amnesty International, a British-based global NGO, which published several independent reports about the supposed killings[3] and testimony from evacuees. Following the liberation of Kuwait, reporters were given access to the country. An ABC report found that “patients, including premature babies, did die, when many of Kuwait’s nurses and doctors … fled” but Iraqi troops “almost certainly had not stolen hospital incubators and left hundreds of Kuwaiti babies to die.”[4] Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the Bush administration of “opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement”.[5]

So prime brexiteer Raab resigns and hey ho up pops ..Gina Miller.
Pretty much proving in fact that Rabb has simply been bushwhacked and railroaded by a coven of remainer civil serpents.
I just hope Sunak understands this and takes steps to get these lefty moles out of the civil service before they wrest more control from the elected government.
“The UK government defines it as “behaviour that makes someone feel intimidated or offended”.”
So a catch all open to abuse.
“What does the law say?
There is no legal definition of bullying, and human resources professional body the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) says there is no single piece of legislation that covers it.”
Someone just got host by their own petard.
“Vishala Sri-Pathma contributed to this article.”
Not immediately clear as to who this is. There is a cubicle gardener of that name whose tweeting history suggests a certain… ‘slant’. Maybe has a bunch of Civil Service contacts?
“The UK government defines it as “behaviour that makes someone feel intimidated or offended”.”
……………..
Anna Soubry says that Islamophobia has no legal definition so cannot be applied to anyone … read this ….
“We have worked together on this, and I am sure he will agree when I (Anna Soubry) say that the time has now come for a proper legal definition of Islamophobia. Does the Minister agree?” – Anna Soubry
“There are many definitions of Islamophobia, but most people tend to adhere to the one used by the Runnymede Trust. We do not accept the need for a definitive definition, but we know that Islamophobia is clearly recognised and that we have very effective monitoring of race-hate crimes.” – Victoria Atkins
Doubt if Sunak will do anything. He belongs to a party which is in thrall to the globalists as are the other political parties. They all depend on the BBC and Civil Service to further the “cause” and line their own pockets. Apart from a handful of politicians, they couldn’t give a stuff about the people of this country.
We plebs are way down the line for attention while that lot are careering the eye-watering money, the expenses, the gongs after just a couple of failed years, the disgraceful pensions and all the trappings of ‘high office’, while they actually do very little except get in the way of private business which pays their huge wage bill.

Sunak accused of delay over bullying probe into deputy PM
A report into alleged bullying by his deputy prime minister landed on Rishi Sunak’s desk yesterday morning. Dominic Raab faces eight formal complaints about his behaviour as a minister in various departments and No 10 had promised the swift publication of a lawyer’s report into the claims. But that failed to materialise, leaving the PM facing accusations of “dither and delay” from opponents. Former staff say it “extends the anxiety” for those who complained. Mr Raab denies bullying, saying he always “behaved professionally”. Mr Sunak must decide whether his deputy has broken ministerial rules and what action to take. For both men, it’s a moment of jeopardy, says our political editor Chris Mason. Read his analysis.

20 black MP’s out of 650…….3%
Proportion of Conservative black MP’s is lower than Labour but that is due to Conservative seats are generally in white suburban and rural areas whereas Labour seats tend to be in cities. So significant under representation is a myth.
Two of the above, Lammy and Abbot are a very poor advert for Black politicians.

Here is a quite alarming story which perhaps puts the mess the current mafia Democrat party has caused in the USA in a nutshell.
Things have become so bad between Israel and the USA that Israel has turned to China to broker a peace agreement with the Palestinians.
Let that sink in for a moment. For how many decades has America backed Israel to the hilt as their one almost extension of the USA mainland, a de facto US State for the Jews.
Now Bidens appalling mess so loved by the swivel eyed loons in the Media and British politics has abandoned Israel.
Not heard much about this in the media? Well I don’t suppose the BBC with its well known anti Israeli bias is going to alert anyone in Britain as to how bad the Biden (mal)administration is making US foreign affairs, but they are well aware of the situation because it’s been covered in the Grauniad.
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/apr/18/china-ready-to-broker-israel-palestine-peace-talks-says-foreign-minister
It’s also so well known there are websites about the state of affairs within the USA
https://www.heyalma.com/israel-guide/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-american-progressive-left-and-israel/
It’s not just Israel and the Palestinians either, it’s Israel and Iran, and if China can pull off a peace agreement between those two as it did between Iran and Saudi, then it is going to make the USA look like a global irrelevance.
Yesterday Turkish Interior Minister Suleiman Soylu said America was hated by the whole world.
He has gained a lot of support for his courage and truthfulness because it pretty much sums up the disastrous mess Biden has caused with his Socialist presidency.

This title is the “New York Times” bestseller – now in paperback. In “America Alone”, Mark Steyn uses his trademark wit, clarity of thought and flair for the apocalyptic, Mark Steyn to argue that America is the only hope against Islamic Terrorism. Steyn addresses the singular position in which America finds itself, surrounded by anti-Americanism on all sides. He gives us the brutal facts on these threats and why there is no choice but for America to fight for the cause of freedom – alone.

Steyn is absolutely catagorically 100% wrong ! America might have had a few bit players in Guantanamo but none of them were US citizens and they more or less tacitly went along with the 9/11 attacks. The Mafia Democrats are now allowing all manner of terrorists and secret intelligence agents from other countries across their open Southern border.
China on the other hand takes no cr** from the Muslims and builds large camps where they are taught to behave themselves in a civilised society.
If Muslims had been involved in a paedophile rape gang they would have been made useful as involuntary organ donors.
In America the victims like here would have told they were fauxbik or waycist or some such nonsense in order to divert the blame away from corrupt political elites.
Saudi Arabian representatives concern by the Western media lies about the treatment of the Uighurs visited the camps in China, and found that all the internees were jihadis, many of which had been fighting Jihad for ISIS and who had returned to China from Syria after Russia sorted them out.
The BBC is always careful to mislead over the Uighurs, never mentioning they are only a minority Islamic sect nor that the majority Muslims in China suffer no such internment. They attempt to protray China as inhumane and Islamofauxbik, but that is an outright disgusting lie.
We have a better chance of defeating Islamic terror with China running the world than we so with the mafia Democrats who would sell every White Westerner out in a heartbeat

Compare / contrast BBC reporting on US neighbourhood shootings this week:
16yr old boy shot —
“Protests erupted in Kansas City, Missouri, over the weekend after a homeowner shot a black teenager twice who rang their doorbell by mistake […] I do recognise the racial components of this case,” Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said. “I do recognise and understand the community’s concern and the community’s response to this particular incident.”
6 yr old girl & father shot —
“Police in North Carolina are searching for a man accused of shooting a 6-year-old girl and her father after their basketball rolled into the suspect’s yard […] Police have issued warrants for Mr Singletary’s arrest, said Gaston County Police Chief Stephen Zill in a statement on Wednesday. Chief Zill added that ‘this sort of violence will not stand.'”
Suspect in the 2nd case went into his house to get a gun (and is alleged to have previously assaulted his girlfriend with a sledgehammer). The shooter was black, the girl white and the BBC don’t include her photo. Some “community concerns” are more equal than others.

‘Musk’s SpaceX big rocket explodes on test flight’

Complete with picture of explosion. Not the launch.
Classic BBC. The explosion is absolutely not the story here. The launch was a magnificent achievement and the rocket was intended to be completely lost. It was just that : a test flight to learn.
But of course the BBC hate Musk because he is right-wing. So they make sure everyone’s initial impression is that it failed and by using ‘Musk’s’ in the headline, Elon failed as well.
As usual you have to read the full article to get any idea of the truth.
I’m so sick of the BBC and their hate-based articles. As usual this one eventually tells the real story but they go out of their way to make you think otherwise.
And of course they don’t tell the full story out of any sense of journalistic ethics. They do it because if they can be proved to be so utterly biased from the actual information they give, they will get reformed and lose their compulsory funding.
That’s the only reason. They are Leftist activists playing a long-term political game. I despise their dirty ethics.

Alec Baldwin: Manslaughter charges dropped over shooting
https://www.bbc.com/news/entertainment-arts-65343821
The development comes less than two weeks before a trial was set to begin.
A statement released by New Mexico special prosecutors Kari Morrissey and Jason Lewis said that “over the last few days… new facts were revealed” in the case, requiring further investigation.
How bad does this story stink ?.
Welcome to the USA where those who can afford big, nasty lawyers can bully their way out of charges.
‘Involuntary manslaughter is the killing of a human being without intent of doing so, either expressed or implied.’
He held the gun and pulled the trigger. How can he possibly not be guilty of manslaughter ?.
His lawyers have apparently claimed the gun’s trigger was modified to make a ‘misfire’ more likely. A misfire is when it DOESN’T shoot. And how did the FBI miss that when they confirmed it could not go off by accident ? (thus proving Baldwin to be a liar, but nobody mentions that).
And why would that cause the charges to be dropped ?. It should just be part of the evidence of the trial.
There should be an outcry about this – but he’s a darling of the MSM because he’s a Lefty activist who hatres Trump so they will keep quiet.

Involuntary manslaughter is for situations such as a motor accident resulting in death. A driver might have caused a death because of his bad driving. The driver never intended to injure or kill anyone but did cause a death and is to blame, hence involuntary manslaughter.
Baldwin’s case is totally different. He obviously never intended to kill or injure but are his actions blameworthy? The film set employed someone responsible for the guns, Baldwin had no reason to believe he was handling a gun that contained live ammunition. The Court seems to think so too.
6 likes
Baldwin is familiar with firearms on film sets.
Firing blanks *at* people should be limited to the actual scene. Even blanks have risk.
Imho involuntary homicide is a slam dunk – the punishment is an entirely separate part of the process.
I wonder how much his legal team are trousering?
11 likes
Quite right Tomo : even blanks are very dangerous at close range.
I read earlier that Baldwin has the best legal team that money can buy and their first tactic is to bombard the prosecution with anything they – and the legions of junior researchers billing the hours – can come up with. To the point where it is basically bullying.
I disagree with you completely Flotsam. Baldwin took a real gun, pointed it at someone and pulled the trigger without knowing if it was loaded or not. There is no conceivable situation I can think of that excuses that from being manslaughter. Except in the lala land the USA has become. Anyone who has ever been involved with real firearms know that if someone hands you a gun, the first thing you ALWAYS do is check it is safe. There are no special rules for actors.
The court didn’t kick the charge out : the prosecution dropped it.
‘Prosecutors said on Thursday they will dismiss the involuntary manslaughter charges against Baldwin, but that the office would investigate further and that the charges could be refiled.’
What kind of nonsense is that ?. We all know they won’t. It stinks.

* note that LGBT stands at 1.5% in the UK, but the BBC want 8% – so over representation.

Do you notice just how poor the quality of ‘politicians ‘ is ?
Two big cases – cake gate – where nut nut thought appointing a friend of starmer to ‘investigate ‘……
Now there is the Raab – where a barrister was appointed to inquire into the conduct of a senior minister …..
How did the blue labour fools expect either report to pan out – Raab can never be exonerated – it will just be there – and the green card PM adds to the damage by delaying the inevitable firing of Raab and subsequent industrial tribunals against Raab for the coming years – all through the election .
They are not worth voting for ….apart from the hope they won’t put up taxes more than they have done …

On a morning when we’re teased that the late historical novelist Hilary Mantel had been working on an ‘Austin mash-up‘ – no, that’s not the title for a tale about the demise of British Leyland – this was in fact to have been a book based on the plots of Jane Austin’s Pride and Prejudice in combination with those of her other novels. A sort of Hilary port-Mantel? Anyone?
Please yourselves… Pearls before swine… I say that, in the manner of some of those camp comic acts, the likes of Frankie Howerd or Lily Savage, who liked to bait their adoring audiences.
There’s a sort of convenient confluence of theme that might group these three news items into one portmanteau story:
Sunak accused of dithering over Raab bullying decision… allegations he bullied staff… Complaints into Raab’s behaviour from several civil servants were investigated… Colleagues of Raab, not involved in the inquiry, have said he could be “pretty belittling” and that he made a member of staff cry (BBC)
Ofsted promises changes after headteacher… took her own life while waiting for Ofsted to publish a report grading her school Inadequate. (BBC)
Blair-style NHS targets will return under Labour government Sir Keir Starmer says… “I’d like to begin see a difference straightaway,” he explained during a visit to York, a target seat in next month’s local elections. “But it will take time because reforming public services always does. (‘i’ newspaper)
To borrow a catchphase from disgraced Australian Rolf Harris… this coincidence of theme… can you see what it is yet?
Moving on… here’s a fascinating divergence in house-style we’ve noticed between our BBC and fellow travelling favourite newspaper the Guardian.
There’s some weird and wonderful and out of the (previously) ordinary crime cases that crop up these days – perhaps not all of them the preserve of recent arrivals over here in the UK.
Our BBC news web site don’t do a Crime tab – you may speculate on their reasoning there – but if they did it might be easier to find some of those here today, gone into the lost wasteland of regional news tomorrow, disappeared completely the next day reports.
Anyway this oddity looks to be homegrown: Man in court over castration broadcast website… Marius Gustavson, 45, from Tottenham, north London, is alleged to have performed extreme body modifications, including the removal of genitals. (BBC) – in those popular adverts when someone does something daft the tag line is “Should have gone to Specsavers” – how about this chap “Should have got a job at Tavistock clinic”
There’s mainly chaps involved in this bizarre case with what Al Murray the Pub Landlord might term “beautiful British names” – but who knows these days?
Where were we? Ah, odd crime cases and BBC/Guardian house-style divergence.
Cardiff: Mum accused of killing toddler through fasting… religious fasting during the Covid lockdown, a court has heard. Olabisi Abubakar, 42, was found “thin, malnourished and dehydrated” on a sofa bed alongside her son, Taiwo, in June 2020. (BBC) – clearly Lockdowns drove the population crazy – some more than others – but that’s a side issue. We note however the BBC declines to tell us anywhere in this report what denomination of religion was involved here.
‘That would be an ecumenical matter’ – to quote from Father Ted. In a bid to clean up Father Jack’s foul language ahead of a visit from the much feared Bishop Brennan, Father Ted desperately tries to equip the alcoholic priest with… go-to phrases (thank you Irish Indepenedent)
In contrast the Guardian seizes this opportunity with relish: ‘Deeply religious’ woman caused son to die through fasting, Cardiff court told… A devout Christian mother caused the death of her three-year-old son by making him join her in a religious fast (Guardian)
But there’s another layer to this woman’s behaviour which again the BBC has obfuscated: …at a time when she was fearful of Covid and worried about her immigration status, a jury has heard. Olabisi Abubakar, 42, an asylum seeker, is accused of the manslaughter of her son Taiwo (Guardian)
Am I really going to have to go to the Gruan of all places for those details the BBC is keen to sanitise?

If an oik in a C&A hoodie and jeans like a TVL officer demands I turn out my pockets they might be disappointed.
Do it to a local chevalier walking their pit bull after closing time and they might get more than that.

Crowdfunder has raised huge amount within a week
A crowdfunding appeal by Extinction Rebellion is expected to hit £1m after £800,000 was raised in the first week.
The cash is to support its direct action in London with the group saying the cash will be used to fund living expenses of the rebels as they attempt to shut down major infrastructure.
Organisers say that the monthly living expenses amount to £400 for full-time rebels and £200 for part-time ones.
However it is thought the group will not apply for charity status or official funding.

The little chap the Beeb have on their books is one of the new leftie kids to take the place of grown-ups they’re kicking out…
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11995987/BBC-accused-obvious-bias-emerges-new-political-fact-checker-Labour-activist.html
The account below just about sums up the lazy, vacuous stance the beeboid elite make up at every turn!
“BBC sources stressed that the vast majority of Bentley’s social media posts pre-dated his employment at the broadcaster and insisted that they employ people of all kinds of backgrounds.
‘Once people are BBC employees, they are bound by the BBC’s editorial rules of impartiality, but any opinions they’ve expressed before working for the BBC, in this case when they were at university, are completely irrelevant,’ said a spokesman.”
If I could be arsed, I’d uncover the mutitude of occasions when beeboids have turned up pre-beeb employment smeers, gaffes, infidelities, crimes etc., but I do in fact have a life…

There we have it : what they are all after. The BBC most of all. Awards.
That’s why all the stories are empathy-laden essays about civilians who have nowhere to live and charge their phones at generators so they can tell loved ones how much they love them.
You can be sure the BBC will award themselves a whole raft of them at some point.
These journalist scum don’t care one jot about the soldiers in a living hell at the front. Their easiest day is a hundred times worse then anything the civilians have to put up with.
Awards.

Her story was initially corroborated by Amnesty International, a British-based global NGO, which published several independent reports about the supposed killings[3] and testimony from evacuees. Following the liberation of Kuwait, reporters were given access to the country. An ABC report found that “patients, including premature babies, did die, when many of Kuwait’s nurses and doctors … fled” but Iraqi troops “almost certainly had not stolen hospital incubators and left hundreds of Kuwaiti babies to die.”[4] Amnesty International USA reacted by issuing a correction, with executive director John Healey subsequently accusing the Bush administration of “opportunistic manipulation of the international human rights movement”.[5]

Pretty much proving in fact that Rabb has simply been bushwhacked and railroaded by a coven of remainer civil serpents.

I actually read that.
“The UK government defines it as “behaviour that makes someone feel intimidated or offended”.”
So a catch all open to abuse.
“What does the law say?
There is no legal definition of bullying, and human resources professional body the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD) says there is no single piece of legislation that covers it.”
Someone just got host by their own petard.
“Vishala Sri-Pathma contributed to this article.”
Not immediately clear as to who this is. There is a cubicle gardener of that name whose tweeting history suggests a certain… ‘slant’. Maybe has a bunch of Civil Service contacts?

“We have worked together on this, and I am sure he will agree when I (Anna Soubry) say that the time has now come for a proper legal definition of Islamophobia. Does the Minister agree?” – Anna Soubry
“There are many definitions of Islamophobia, but most people tend to adhere to the one used by the Runnymede Trust. We do not accept the need for a definitive definition, but we know that Islamophobia is clearly recognised and that we have very effective monitoring of race-hate crimes.” – Victoria Atkins

Doubt if Sunak will do anything. He belongs to a party which is in thrall to the globalists as are the other political parties. They all depend on the BBC and Civil Service to further the “cause” and line their own pockets. Apart from a handful of politicians, they couldn’t give a stuff about the people of this country.
