    Yep you all got it, it’s HS2 you know, that construction company digging tunnels and moving earth night and day, and this is their primary picture in their recruitment page.

    All those wimmin (the ones not on maternity leave or long term sick for diabetes due to obesity, theres one there just waiting for it)

    I will bet my house not a single one of those in the picture have ever held a spade or worked after 5 PM or before 9 AM

    And people wonder where all that money goes.

    Not a digger in sight.
    Yet this is the primary picture of HS2 employees

    Are the BBC saying Spain was 40C ?

    Spanish Met Offfice
    say “data of 38.8ºC registered yesterday in Córdoba would not be the record temperature in Spain in a month of April, but it would be for MAINLAND Spain.”

    That was at the AIRPORT
    bit of midnight rain about , so it’s cooling
    The peak has passed

      She might just as well be the weather forecaster on the Fast show. Plaster “Scorchio” stickers everywhere and be in utter shock when a nimbo cumilos pops up.

    BBC Hull webstory
    same as last night’s TV
    “Oh look we have had all this migrants at a Ferriby Hotel for 6 months there hasn’t been any trouble”
    It looked like PRasNewsfor an un-named open immigration charity.

      And I can tell stories.

    We’ve done Psalm 116/118 wrt to ‘all men are liars’ but I would like to pay tribute to yesterday’s Thought for the Day by The Venerable Liz Adekunle. It is up on the BBC Toady Homepage and it was excellent. Well done, Liz. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p00szxv6

    Just got in, so well behind the ‘news’…

    Why can’t they just make Line-acher head of the bbbc then we can all get some peace, because he’s utterly useless at everything he says and does – just like every other gobby leftie, but still coining it from the tax-payer of course!

    Luckily, our pensions send zilch money to the beeboid tax now – thanks to exhortations from Fed and chums here, so just to see a little result from most of the normal citizens telling the Walkers iconic idiot to fuck off is quite enjoyable!

      – or the word wanglers of 77th Brigade

      I wonder why they do that so ineptly – why not go full Guardian and disappear it altogether?

    Bradford Clean Air Zone generates £4.5m in six months
    the bbc tweet has 9 likes
    and 22 replies saying it’s just created polluting rat runs through villages.
    whilst making little difference to city air
    So is just a tax.

      Of course it’s a tax, Stew!

      Programming traffic lights and allowing subsequent delays to make as much money as they can, is an art, much loved by pen-pushers in local authorities, councils and other blasted wasters of the poll tax!

      I blame Excel for all this…

    As the BBC sails along without a Chairman what difference will it make ? We suffer a lefty government with a lefty culture secretary suggesting the next chair will be a lefty – much more suitable for the BBC lefty group think

    Seems like the BBC , which is in charge of the Sudan evacuation operation – is not happy that ‘free rescue flights ‘ are to be stopped from 6pm Saturday .

    The BBC favours evacuating anyone who fancies a free flight to cypress – an instant appointment with a GP and unlimited handouts from the give away money agency ….

      They should save the fuel and drop them off in Hurghada

      – after all the Egyptians are on the Russian side – and that’d inconvenience them.
