    Something for the fact checkers ?

    hmmm tumbleweed

    “Is Ngozi Fulani a cultural appropriator?

    “When senior palace aide Lady Susan Hussey repeatedly asked charity boss Ngozi Fulani where she was from, much of the media eagerly leapt to Fulani’s defence. Self-styled anti-racists decried Hussey’s ‘interrogation’ as an assault on Fulani’s ‘authentic African pride’.

    We now know that Ngozi Fulani changed her name from Marlene Headley. It turns out that she is not strictly of African origin, either. Despite claiming to be proud of her African heritage, and often appearing in public in traditional African dress, her family came to Britain from the Caribbean.

    Fulani’s name has also raised eyebrows among British Africans. While it is wholly reasonable that some Caribbean-origin people might want to change their English-, Scottish- or Irish-sounding surnames, which were often given to them by slaveowners, ‘Ngozi Fulani’ is a rather unlikely pairing. ‘Ngozi’ is a name common among the Igbo people, an ethnic group in Nigeria. ‘Fulani’, meanwhile, is the name of one of the largest ethnic groups in the Sahel and West Africa.

    As the Nigerian newspaper, the Nation, explains, one longstanding problem in Nigeria is the ‘zero-sum struggle for power’ between its Igbo and Fulani elites. In recent times, Nigeria’s agricultural ‘Middle Belt’ has been blighted by land disputes between mostly Muslim Fulani herders and predominantly Christian non-Fulani farmers, many of whom are from the Igbo tribe. The two groups, as one commentator puts it, ‘hate each other’. So it is no surprise that some Brits of African origin – particularly those of Nigerian heritage – are less than impressed by an adopted name which combines these ethnicities.”

      elsewhere I see the name Campbell is derived from combining two Gaelic words – Cam, meaning crooked and Beul meaning mouth.

    Be alert – your country needs lerts edition

    Alone among our national press titles it is left to the jokey blokey Daily Star Sunday to wish us all: Happy St George’s Day on their masthead Thought for the Day feature

    Admittedly The Mail on Sunday offers readers a Free King Charles III Coronation tea towl *£4.99 postage payable Online access. Mail account and Unique Number required. Terms apply – it’s almost as though they’re determined to track and trace us few… us patriotic washer uppers with a monarchist bent for commemorative collectibles.

    Speaking of track and trace… The Sunday Express gives us a welcome once a week break from their tediously loyalist to Sunak workaday iteration’s unity with the people of Ukraine and instead at the top of the page advises: Don’t panic! 3pm phone alarm not an emergency

    Don’t want us to panic? Don’t do it then!

    The Daily Star cracks the same gag that’s getting about as old as Clive Dunn’s character in Dad’s Army was supposed to have been: Don’t panic! Don’t panic! Mobile phone alert mahem at 3pm today

    If someone says keep calm and carry on I’m likely to scream louder than a phone emergency alert

    I’m now trying to recall any mention of this in any political party manifesto or indeed any prospective constituency MP that stood on the stump last time around and promised us State-mandated mobile phone emergency alerts?

    No, thought not.

    So where does this stuff come from?

    May I present Exhibit ‘B’ ladies and gentlemen of the Biased BBC jury: No passengers for young drivers… New drivers aged under 25 may be stopped from carrying young passengers as part of a “graduated driving licence” being considered by ministers (Sunday Times)

    Who what where when why ??? – as that old journalistic trope used to ask.

    The restriction has the approval of Support for Victims of Road Crashes, an advisory committee to the Department of Transport and will be considered at a meeting next month (Times) – there follows some intentionally scary justificatory stats supplied by: the charity Brake… – and news that: The change could be made by amending The Road traffic (New Drivers) Act. This already puts new drivers on probation – this news comes with a caution that: Ministers worry that the rule could be hard to enforce but Jo Shiner, the the UK’s most senior police officer responsible for roads supports it

    So there you have it. That’s how the country is run nowadays. It’s a legalistic managerial therapeutic State – employing the notion of safety and protection so as to work toward some rather shrouded and unspecified (suspiciously supranational) long-term goals. New laws are cooked up between an alliance of unelected qangos, campainging fake charities with dubious (largely tax-payer) funding, permanent civil servants and limp-wristed fearful politicians as the figure heads… ladies and gentlemen, may I introduce the prime limp-wristed manlet of a prime minister, Rishi Sunak… or if you will Sir Keir Starmer… basically, take your pick it makes hardly a whit of difference.

    Goodbye possums (Telegraph); Goodnight possums! (Times); King leads tributes to superstar ‘Dame Edna’ (the achingly toe-curlingly loyalist Express)

    Frankly, Mr AsI was much more of a Sir Les Patterson fan. But you either knew or might have guessed that. It’s funny (strange) how we’ve lost a brace of female impersonators recently. Of course nowadays chaps tend to play the female impersonation straight, as it were.

      Sorry. These two ‘doctors’ OPTED to place themselves/their cash/their careers ahead of the well-being of those to whom they owed a duty of care. No amount of ‘we were told this … we were told that … we were scared’ cuts it in my book. They chose to be a mouthpiece for government and did not:
      1. Make the care of their patients their first concern.
      2. Provide a good standard of practice and care:
      3. Contribute to and comply with systems to protect patients.
      4. Show respect for their patients.

      Everything these two ‘doctors’ needed to know was in plain sight from the start:
      Extract from written evidence, Joanna K Jones
      24 Apr 2020
      (COV0064) https://committees.parliament.uk
      ”The quarantine was said to be for only 3 weeks, then it was lengthened by another 3 weeks. Now I am seeing reports of it lasting until 2021 or 2022 or ‘until a vaccine is available’. In fact, the Coronavirus Act allows for quarantine of up to 2 years (unknown to most of the public). This is dishonest of the government and doesn’t address the question of:
      1. What if the vaccine doesn’t work or is dangerous and cannot be used?
      2. What about the people who would refuse an experimental vaccine?”
      And again:
      ‘My medical appointments are all cancelled. My surgeon has cancelled my appointment ‘indefinitely’ despite the fact that I can’t walk and no one knows why, but this isn’t considered an emergency enough, while money is poured into covid hospitals that are empty.’

    Emergency alert could be sound that saves your life , says deputy PM
    https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-65360576

    ‘The new system will be used in cases of flooding, wildfires or terror attacks.’

    But mainly terror attacks.

    Then we get the most bizarre attempt to shoehorn in some misandrist agenda I’ve seen for a long time:

    ‘Ellie Butt, from the domestic abuse charity Refuge, is urging women who feel at risk to disable the alert.She said: “One in four women will experience domestic abuse in her lifetime … so it’s safe to assume that there are a significant number of people that need to know that their safety might be at risk from these alerts, and they can opt out and turn them off.”‘

    No explanation at all.

    The whole article has got ‘amateur idiot’ written all over it and seems to be written by someone a bit stupid for other people who are also a bit stupid. Here’s the culprit:

    GWF recently mentioned Pat Condell, who used to be on You Tube regularly. I haven’t seen or heard anything about him in ages, so I had a shufty at his Twitter page. He says this about today’s alert.

    “The only emergency we’ve got is a globalist fifth column masquerading as a conservative government. Seven years after the Brexit vote we still have wide open borders to the scum of the earth. You are the problem, mate. You can shove your emergency alert up your arse.”

    I admire your optimism . Blue Labour was elected with an 80 seat majority . OK – quite a few of them could easily be in the red Labour Party .

    But there has been no attempt to be Conservative -they just raised taxes and threw borrowed money at welfare and the NHS like a real Labour Party .

    If they think they’ll be in power after the next election they must be so out of touch as not to deserve their MP salary . Conservatives just won’t bother voting for them .

    They have allowed Far Left organisations such as the BBC to do and say whatever they want – and suffer constant attacks at all levels .

    If the next parliament doesn’t deliver a hung parliament – and gives Red Labour a working majority – I hope to see the inevitable disappointment that Labour is unable to deliver for its friends destabilise Blighty – and maybe producing a party of the Right which has more ability than Reform and which might ‘take back control’ .

    However I cannot see a Right wing party in the foreseeable future because of the far left control now in charge …. See Raab Patel Cummings … and nut nut …

    Here is something the MSM appear very reluctant to cover, the climate change scandal of the Australian Met Office using digital thermometers which read 0.7C hotter than the mercury ones they previous used, knowing about it and not adjusting the figures accordingly to insinuate there is a global warming issue which isn’t actually there.

    https://dailysceptic.org/2023/04/17/climate-change-scandal-in-australia-heating-up/

    Further significant doubts have been cast on the accuracy of global surface temperature results following the discovery that electronic thermometers in Australia have read up to 0.7°C higher than traditional mercury glass units. The Australian dataset is a major component of global compilations since it provides an important guide to one of the largest land masses in the southern hemisphere. After many years of trying, local freedom of information requests from scientists have forced the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) to release comparative information from the two measuring devices around Brisbane airport. It shows that automatic readings are higher 41% of the time, compared with 32% when the temperatures were the same.

      Temperatures around airports and conurbations are always going to be higher than rural temperatures (ie real ambient) due to the built environment.

      As an example, this winter, Met Office readings for Manchester were many degrees higher than we experienced in fairly near rural Cheshire. We get frosts when Manchester is at 6-8 degrees.

        Two villages? But both locations have neighbouring airports!!!

      ‘Yes.’

      And he did see them, for a fleeting instant, before the scenery of his mind changed. He saw five fingers, and there was no deformity. Then everything was normal again, and the old fear, the hatred, and the bewilderment came crowding back again. But there had been a moment — he did not know how long, thirty seconds, perhaps — of luminous certainty, when each new suggestion of O’Brien’s had filled up a patch of emptiness and become absolute truth, and when two and two could have been three as easily as five, if that were what was needed.

        He does rather inspire a negative reaction.

        Which must be why the BBc have him high on their main guest list too.

    The Proclaimers have been removed from an official King’s coronation playlist after they were criticised for their anti-royal views.

    Craig and Charlie Reid’s hit I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles) was featured alongside prominent UK artists.

    Last year they agreed with a republican demonstrator who shouted during the proclamation of King Charles.

    The BBC understands the song was removed by the UK government following complaints.

    The Proclaimers’ management have been approached for comment.

    Why was Jeremy Corbyn removed? A report by the Equality and Human Rights Commission published in October 2020 found that under Mr Corbyn’s leadership, the Labour Party breached the Equality Act when it failed to effectively address antisemitism within it.28 Mar 2023

    …..

    Diane Abbott has had the Labour whip withdrawn for comments she made in a letter to the Observer. The former Shadow Home Secretary had since apologised for the letter, in which she implied Jewish people couldn’t experience racism.

    ….
    The Labour Party is not overrun by antisemitism {THE SHAMI CHAKRABARTI INQUIRY 30jun2016}, Islamophobia or other forms of racism.

    Further, it is the party that initiated every single United Kingdom race equality law.

    On every panel discussion I’ve seen about the Civil Snowflakes and their bias it’s all the lefties saying it’s not biased and all those on the right saying it is.
    Surely that shows where the bias is.

    Unsure if this will show, but fingers crossed.

    Interesting on various levels, as the comments indicate.

    That said, the key is who goes after who, or not, and why.

    Then you get in BBC territory.

    Mulling over the massive movement to batter the population into submission over such things a global warming I have a hypothesis.

    It is all driven by the universities.

    For many years the encouragement and development of brains in universities was based on advancement of the human race in terms of better solutions to the challenges such as transport, energy, agriculture, health, etc,

    Universities have changed and now the golden target is finding problems! they are churning out people who see their motive to be inventing and addressing problems instead of pushing forward and advancing human endeavour.

    Hence the tsunami of new climate and behavioural scientists etc. ready to take up roles in this new and totally meaningless dark religion.

    Basically they have given up on finding new stuff and are chasing their holy grail of screaming to fix stuff that doesn’t really need fixing using blackmail and threat to force it upon us.

    It’s a soft option and will do humanity enormous harm in due course.
