Baby step medicalisation of our problems leaning toward State control of the economy, life, the universe and everything (as Douglas Adams might have put it) edition
On a morning when we find Sherelle Jacobs in the Telegraph posit: …the political class’s allergy to hard choices
We’ll come back that notion
But first, our formerly patriotic Times newspaper presents an odd piece of photojournalism on the frontpage this morning. Or should one say photo-propagandalism? I might use that word some more.
Safety steps. A Kyiv metro station provided shelter yesterday when Russian missiles fell on the Ukrainian capital after a night-time attack – runs theTimes caption.
Ukraine says it downed all missiles and drones in the previous two attacks. (BBC)
Clearly the pic of exclusively young student types looking concerned while busy perusing their cell phones and sat on the centre two escalators of an underground railway station – studiously avoiding the eye of the camera lens – all looking rather suspiciously posed – might appear directly targeted for the tastes of a British audience to evoke echoes of the London Blitz.
You know everything has to relate back to World War Two – we just can’t get over it: Teary Vicky McClure gets to grips with her grandad’s D-Day ‘hell’ (Daily Express); Family hero Ralph McClure, 97, and actress on Normandy beach see pages 10 & 11 (Mirror)
But what’s this… how come the outer two escalators of the four in this pic of a well-appointed well-lit Soviet era metro station are obviously in full working order and taking apparently carefree citizens both on the right-hand moving staircase down to the platform level and on the left-hand up to the apparent air raid danger of the streets?
I call foul. I say this bunch of uni students are a rent-a-mob, taken to sit on the metro steps by minders, told to look concerned – but not at the camera – and the whole thing is carefully posed by the propaganda ministry over there and packaged for our mainstream.
Channelling Dad’s Army: Who do you think you are kidding Mr Zelensky…
This comes after the setback of Turkish voters re-electing the chap the west didn’t want as president of the presently sanctions-rejecting, Russia-leaning Nato member Turkey. Many of these Erdogan voters being keen patriotic ex-pat migrants located in the actual geographic europe – rather than the europe of the BBC online news tab classification.
Meanwhile in the parallel universe that is Eurovision: Why is Turkey not in Eurovision? Turkey’s decision to leave the competition was citing dissatisfaction of the return of jury scoring to the voting system. The return of the jury vote towards the final rankings hurt Turkey whose success had really kicked off when the public vote was introduced in 1997… It was back in 1975 that Turkey first participated in the Eurovision Song Contest, and it was not without drama. Because of Turkey’s participation, Greece withdrew from the Contest which was said to be due to Turkey’s recent invasion of Cyprus… In 2013 and 2014, Turkey did not even televise the competition on its network, TRT… “As a public broadcaster, we also cannot broadcast live at 9 p.m. — when children are still awake — someone like the bearded Austrian who wore a skirt, do not believe in genders and says that he is both a man and a woman.” (Aussievision: Eurovision from Downunder)
Think of the children
Sunak to ban free vape samples for children (Telegraph)
Vaping: Government plans underage crackdown… There will also be a review into the rules around the sale of “nicotine-free” products to under-18s. Labour called the announcement a “baby step” and said urgent action is needed. (BBC) – meanwhile Labour would give under-18s the vote.
Our State planned and controlled economy or come back Jeremny Corbyn, all is forgiven
Since we’ve seen the Tories do Lockdown and now make their “baby step”(?) toward price controls – we do have to wonder how far near-complete State control of the economy will be pushed?
Labour to let councils buy land cheaply to tackle housing crisis (Guardian); Prices set below potential market rate (FT); Labour warned over pension intervention… unveiled plans to dictate how pension funds invest £50 billion (Telegraph)
We tend to smile at knee-jerk government activity in response to an excitable media and their three-day-wonders with gags about our Minister for Floods… here’s one for the teenagers hoping to get the vote but losing the vape: Memories of Brum MP… Denis Howell who changed the weather… more than 30 years ago when Small Heath MP Denis Howell was appointed Minister for Drought during the baking hot summer of 1976… As luck or design would have it, Mr Howell succeeded in getting the heavens to open within a few days of his appointment. And, as the heavy rainfall continued, he soon became known as the Minister for Floods. (Birmingham Live)
And then there’s that reflexive legislative instinct – typified by knee-jerk efforts to control the apparent scurge of our snarling canine pet leg-cockers: Dangerous Dogs Act was ‘knee-jerk’ and flawed, says Battersea Dogs Home, 25 years on… Last year, the home took in 91 pit bull terrier types, which it says proves breeding has not stopped, simply been forced underground. (Wandsworth Times)
The Mirror (slightly) rebrands that dog-eared term dangerous dogs for our abbreviated new decade where we’re keen on the medicalisation of problems: Danger Dogs Epidemic… this must stop… Mirror fight to overhaul law and save lives
Not being fond of dogs – why not reverse the burden of proof on whether dogs are a danger or not – those incidents such as the excellent shooting of 2 fidos last week by brave prod armed with mp15 carbines will become more commonplace-
Particularly since plod will have more time by giving up on going to ‘mental health events ‘- which so often in the past has led to some vibrant character becoming dead – with the bbc – relatives – ‘legal team ‘ all after £ justice £

Phillip Schofield row: This Morning hosts defend show
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-65745586
bBC feels it needs to comment on ITV programmes, what has it got to do with them
Worry about your own rubbish output
I disagree – it must be important because the Mail isn’t reporting anything else . Will Holly ? And Phil ? Get it together again ?
Meanwhile the Guardian features their pin up called ‘Richard Coles’ – who apparently was a Church of England clergyperson and thus a professional queer .
The BBC apparently tried to force mr Coles to go to `Cardiff – ( lucky it wasn’t Newcastle (snigger ))an action which no real Islington type could ever imagine – thus Mr Coles lost his programme on bbc wireless .
He is taking his case to the European court of something to be decided by an anonymous Albanian €’judge’€…
Declaration – I have never heard mr Cole’s and hopefully never will .
Perhaps he can ‘connect ‘ the Schofield chap …?
‘…what has it got to do with them
Schofield was, at the time he joined, the BBCs youngest employee and much of his career took place there, starting with the children’s TV show, ‘Going Live!’. So, you might say they sort of groomed him for stardom. Several events in his life will endorse him to BBC-types, for instance the list of senior Conservatives who were allegedly paedos which he presented onscreen to David Cameron in 2012 (and which resulted in a £125,000 payout to Lord McAlpine in the subsequent libel case…). There was then the business of Schofield admitting he was homosexual (big deal, who cares) and had betrayed his wife and family (which is a big deal to many folk). Of course, making ‘brave and stunning’ announcements about what should be private matters is the very stuff which makes BBC managers go weak at the knees, especially when it fits their narrative.
A point well made – how certain events are forgotten …

I have noticed that there’s a lot of “distraction” stories in the news media of late . There are serious events that affect the people of this country that are not being covered. We are being kept in the dark.

Sometimes they have to turn the dimmer switch up – eg 606000 ( 750000?) new ‘arrivals in 2022 – of the 22 billion borrowed in April 2023 – second biggest lump since 1993-
– but then the dimmer switch is turned down … back to Holly and Phil and Suella and Harry and footy ….

Ends : “While leftist protesters like Letzte Generation could far more easily be classified as anti-democratic, they’re not opponents of the state at all, but rather its loosely affiliated agents.
Police and prosecutors could stop the blockades and the vandalism at any time, but they won’t.
Letzte Generation and its sister organisations are actors in an elaborate charade, intended to lend a populist democratic aura to climate protection policies, which flow not from the people but from unaccountable out-of-sight think-tanks, NGOs and bureaucratic institutions.”

How the BBC reports on you depends on who you are and what values, beliefs and ideologies you hold. The news is shaped, filtered and distorted not reported.
The BBC is headlining with this….
‘Covid: Top Chinese scientist says don’t rule out lab leak’
Hmmm…the same BBC that has consistently worked to dismiss and discredit any claims that it was a lab leak.
Of course all is not as it seems….the headline does not represent the BBC view which is still that covid came from the animal market.
Turns out the ‘provocative’ headline was to draw people in and to excuse the BBC making a story out of it….it is basically an advert for its podcast…..
‘In an interview for the BBC Radio 4 podcast Fever: The Hunt for Covid’s Origin, Prof Gao says: “You can always suspect anything. That’s science. Don’t rule out anything.”‘
BBC News is hyping a non-story, Gao still says Covid came from the market and his statement that you can’t rule anything out is merely a throw away line to make it appear he is is genuinely open to other ideas when he, and the Chinese government, are anything but.
Should you be suckered into listening to the advertised podcast you’ll hear that 99% covid came from the market…they don’t have all the evidence but…..so keep an open mind lol.
What was more interesting was the admission that the covid lab-leak theory was disissed as a conspiracy theory because it supposely came from Trump…when of course it didn’t come from him…he just echoed what others moe knowledgeable were saying….and it was a very likely scenario…a lab in Wuhan playing with the covid virus…and there’s an outbreak in Wuhan….go figure.
So the BBC skewed its reporting because it didn’t like Trump….just as it spent four years howling about Trump and the dodgy dossier when it knew all along it was rubbish as admitted by the BBC’s Gabriel Gatehouse.
Why did, does, the BBC work so hard to dismiss the lab-leak theory so vehemently?
Why has the BBC spent so many years shouting down the lab-leak theory when it was prima facie the most obvious cause?
Can you trust the BBC?
Near all the BBC’s Covid antics have been quite simply putrid propaganda.
As said in my last comment…
‘How the BBC reports on you depends on who you are and what values, beliefs and ideologies you hold. The news is shaped, filtered and distorted not reported.’
If you’re Isabel Oakeshott, someone on the right of politics, sceptical about immigration and covid lockdowns, the BBC will target and trash you and anything you say.
When she revealed Matt Hancock’s WhatsApp messages and showed how decisions were made about the response to covid she was savagely attacked…the BBC et al launched highly personal attacks on her and almost completely ignored the messages and their contents….and yet these were messages from the man at the very centre of the government’s covid response and showed how and why he acted….they were crucial pieces of evidence about a major disaster for our nation…..possible made so much worse by the government response…and thus we need to know how and why it happened….and we need these ‘secret’ messages.
Turns out that Oakeshott isn’t the only one who thinks such messages are important…the official covid inquiry is now demanding government WhatsApp messages….threatening fines or even prison if there is a failure to hand them over.
‘The government has until 4pm to hand over Boris Johnson’s unredacted WhatsApp messages and diary entries to the Covid inquiry.
The inquiry says failing to release the unredacted material would be a criminal offence.’
Why might it be important?
‘The inquiry is due to begin public hearings in two weeks time, starting with sessions on the country’s preparedness for a pandemic.
It aims to identify lessons from the government’s handling of the pandemic, looking at issues including the use of lockdowns, the impact of Covid on children and healthcare workers and the protection of the clinically vulnerable. ‘
Naturally Labour and LibDems are agitating but so are families….
‘Campaign groups representing bereaved families have said it is “outrageous” that the Cabinet Office thinks it can dictate what material can be released.
Labour has also called for the unredacted material to be released so “those responsible can be held to account”. ‘
Hmmmm….odd how Labour etc also attacked Oakeshott previously but now WhatsApp messages are vital evidence….we must hold people to account…like Hancock the health secretary?
An interesting aside…..the BBC site reports…
‘The former head of the civil service, Lord Kerslake said the Cabinet Office’s position on Mr Johnson’s messages was “misguided”.
The former Labour adviser told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme: “There’s some cover-up going on here to save embarrassment of ministers. ‘
He did indeed say ‘cover-up’…..but he then reined back on that and said that was too harsh and not the right words….and yet the BBC still report it as a ‘cover-up’ without the qualification.
Echoes of what might have happened when David Kelly suggested that the Iraq dossier was ‘sexed up’…..quite likely he would instantly have reined back on that if challenged on it…a throw away line that was his own sexing up of his interview with the BBC…we all do it…an over-blown phrase to describe something in a more exciting way for effect that we don’t really mean…..but of course the BBC hyped it ike mad and ran with it claiming that the whole dossier was thus a lie……with enormous political effect…and maybe soldiers lives lost because the BBC falsely built the lie that the war was illegal rather than just unwise perhaps.
Pug ,
I think nut nut knows that the what’s app thingys will objectively evidence his cavalier attitude to the precautions his government inflicted on the rest of us .
I’m surprised some sort of ‘crown immunity ‘ thing hasn’t been invoked already to cover the goings on number 10 as well as for Cabinet ministers trying to deal with the Chinese virus – if they’d stuck some escape clause in all that draconian legislation there would have been no inquiry of news reports . Just . plain . dumb .
Invoking BBC WE DO SCIENCE WE DO.
Should be fun.

Here in New Zealand heart disease is at record levels, but politicians of all parties are repeating again and again that there are no excess deaths. As if repeating a lie will make it come true. However the official tally of OECD statistics shows that in 2023 New Zealand deaths are running at an astonishing 18.2 per cent above the long-term average – the second-highest rate among 31 OECD nations.

WE ARE ALL EQUAL. COMRADES.
Four Members of Parliament expensed the taxpayer for a collective £720 to cover their own driving fines. The Independent yesterday reported that Energy Minister Amanda Solloway, Simon Hoare, Bim Afolami and SNP MP Dave Doogan all claimed tickets on expenses. Sollaway’s bill came to £80 while both Doogan and Folami expensed £160. Simon Hoare was the worst offender, with his four bills costing a total of £320…
Obviously, MPs shouldn’t be able to claim expenses for their speeding fines – as IPSA spelt out against Suella Braverman’s best wishes. In response to the story, IPSA admitted they had made a mistake, and said they would reiterate the rules to the MPs. Once again, the expenses watchdog is giving our elected officials a free ride…
UPDATE: A Tory source has been in touch to say Amanda Solloway and Bim Afolami’s fines were related to the congestion charge, rather than speeding.
https://order-order.com/
…………..
I know when I was on an all expenses paid company car, parking and driving fines were specifically excluded from any expenses claim. The reason…….unallowable business expense as a cost against tax…..HMRC.
I’m amazed that any MP would want to make such a claim due to the potential adverse publicity.
A February 2008 Freedom of Information Act request for the release of details of MPs’ expenses claims was allowed by an Information Tribunal but challenged by the House of Commons Authorities on the grounds that it was “unlawfully intrusive”.[2]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Kingdom_parliamentary_expenses_scandal
“‘on the grounds that it was “unlawfully intrusive”‘

HA HA HA HA!
They are little piggies.
Something very fishy about the Moscow drone attacks….
1. If they were fired from Ukraine, why would the Russian air defence system not detect and shoot these down during their hundreds of miles journey from Ukraine and only do it over Moscow?
2. The drones and payload were quite obviously very small, probably like the hand controlled hobby drones you see in parks so who was controlling them and from where?
3. If the drones were technically effective in travelling hundreds of miles, why were they equipped with totally ineffective payloads, why bother?
So either Ukraine has sleepers in Russia, or some lone wolf in Moscow with a grudge was implicated or Russia did it themselves to justify their own attacks on Ukraine.
I’m not really bothered what the true story is but I am bothered that the news media in the West don’t want to pose these blindingly obvious questions. They just want to be gung ho about brave, clever little Ukraine.
On the theme of ‘clever little Ukraine’ the Sicherheitsdeinst had much the same enthusiasm for the staff at Belzec, Treblinka, Sobibor, Chelmno and similar installations.
digg, I am surprised at the total lack of journalistic effort on the part of the BBC to investigate or even infiltrate the trafficking gangs sending hundreds of small boats across the English Channel. Same for the major prints.
Why?
I am not.
They have an agenda, and use pure propaganda to promote it.
Anything off narrative they try to censor or discredit.

Drone strikes in Moscow….the BBC reports the Russian version that this was a Ukrainian attack. Could be of course….a propaganda stunt that does little damage but brings a bit of fear to Muscovites.
Targeted at civilian buildings so you might question why the Ukrainians would do that….or you might be asking if this wasn’t just a Russian stunt deliberately hitting civilian targets in order to bring Russian civilians more onboard with the war and to excuse further actions against Ukraine…..as the BBC says….
‘Yet any attack on Russia’s capital makes Nato nervous about the risks of escalation…..if a drone or missile attack on Moscow did end up causing serious casualties this could propel the Ukraine war into dangerous new territory.’
Might be good if the BBC questioned the Russian line rather than parrot it.

Former German Chancellor Schröder nominated for Gazprom board
The former chancellor is already chairman of Nord Stream and a good friend of Vladimir Putin.

Schröder has been connected to Gazprom since he left office in 2005
“In 2016, Schröder switched to become manager of Nord Stream 2, an expansion of the original pipeline in which Gazprom is sole shareholder.”
I’ve never watched ‘This Morning’ with Schofield and Willoughby but you can’t get away from what’s been going on as it’s on everywhere.
Is it too simple to think that if you have all these woke media people going out of their way to hire all the odds and sods (lgbtqwertyetc) then you leave yourself open to more problems than just having an ordinary workforce.
These companies being so woke will attract more of the minorities as they prefer them to the majority. I would bet, for example, that itv/bbbc will have more lgbt etc than the percentage in the population just the same way as black people in adverts are more than the 3% of the population they make up. Same with all the programs and shows, more like 30% than 3%.
I know that this is not relevant for this website. Other than
the BBC had a feature about the Indian scammers set up
last night And you can see multiple examples of what these
scammers from INDIA are up to on Youtube.
I am very disturbed that many of the customer relations
offices that we phone are based in in Delhi, Mumbai, Calcutta etc.
Do we really know to whom we are talking to? These scammers
are operating right under the noses of the Indian authorities.
Whom seem to turn a blind eye. The major companies use
India because it is obviously cheaper. Are their offices next door to the scammers multiple offices?
” Before we talk to you we need to go through security.” We
are told. Perhaps we need to do the converse with the people
we are talking to in Delhi. But of course it’s just a coincidence
that later we get a phone call from a number we don’t recognize.
But I suppose this is really just a conspiracy theory . One of
Putin’s closest partners would not allow this kind of vile crime
to be perpetrated , untouched?
Foscari – thanks – as moderator I am less Stalinist in my approach to ‘content ‘ these days … unless I’m in a bad mood – then it’s gulag time 😜
Foscari,
I invested in a Call-Blocker device that acts as a telephonist (remember those ?) that is set by me to reject all calls from abroad (among others that are interrogated by the device) that get filtered out, with a polite outgoing message. Phone doesn’t even ring.
I also decided the times of day when I am ‘available’ for incoming calls (friends/family can always get through)
When I logged on to the admin site to see who’s been trying to annoy me there were 45 rejected calls from India, within an hour, all from the same exchange but different numbers.
It’s an industrial scale problem.
Any western human rights organisations investigating this or perhaps it’s all Russian propaganda. BBC Verify to verify?

…. Now now the met plod has responded by handcuffing , threatening with a taser – and putting a spit hood on the head of a 91 year old with dementia .._
… alternatively see the footage of a thug woman pulling the pony tail? Of a WPC whilst a male ‘colleague ‘ does nothing – painful to watch – painful to realise how poor plod is now ….
“Hannah Arendt, one of the greatest philosophers of the last 100 years, said that: ‘Once something can’t be said, you’re already in a tyranny.’ So, it is indisputable that we are all now living, in 2023, in a tyranny”
What was made apparent in a recent documentary was that there was a secret department at the British Foreign Office called the Independent Research Department that spread anti-communist propaganda to likes of the BBC’s West German service, which it funded. Letters to the programme were shared with the West German and British governments. But in 1974 – following improved relations between the West German and East Germany governments – the programme was scrapped. The BBC destroyed copies of the programme in its archives, but after the show recordings were found in the Stasis stores.

Just heard from Brissles – see post right at the beginning of this thread!
All OK!
Yaaaheeee!
That’s Very Good News
Good news about Brissles.
We ought to have a WW2-style ‘unaccounted for’ list; Lobster, Grant and a few others. Pounce is on TCW Defending Freedom from time to time.
I think Grant went off to live in West Africa or somewhere near, Uppers – it was mainly his characteristic posting that started my blood pressure about the awful leftie beebolid characters tainting my TV watching enjoyment! I don’t see anything live nowadays!
I miss his posts though, as I do Lobsters’, who sometimes crops up on Guido, but that familiar logo is sadly missed!
I’m glad Pounce is still in the case though, he’s a legend!
Blimey, this is all getting a bit personal isn’t it! We’ll be on ‘Good Morning’ soon…
Scrobie, Grant was married to a lass from West Africa but he came back for the warmer (in Scotland or was it to enjoy winter in Scotland?) part of the year for to visit and check on an Aged Parent. Maybe said Aged Parent is no more.
“Blimey, this is all getting a bit personal isn’t it! We’ll be on ‘Good Morning’ soon…”
Sorry I don’t do telly but if the money is right (half-way to Lineker level?) I could be persuaded that I don’t have a radio face.
Lucy Siegle seems pretty hatey

Other allegations are oppublished today but she published hers in Aug 2022
“he ‘groped’ me at the photocopier (zero marks for originality) at work when I was an admin assistant in my early 20s ”
Years later in 2018 she took her complaint to Guardian bosses, but wrote that she was fobbed off.

Lucy seems a shoo-in to tag with Justin Rowlatt as the Verified Watermelon Eds.
I used to snog a young lady of my age by the photocopier back in the sixties…
What’s a photocopier…?
Scrobie, I think you mean ‘Xerox machine’. I remember the pong of the toner and the paper once a copy had been made from time in my first full time job after leaving school.
There is a perfectly sensible answer to those results:
IQ tests are racist.
Psychology is racist.
Science is racist.
Education is racist.
Knowledge is racist.
Books are racist.
Pen and paper are racist.
Everything, everywhere, is racist.
Simples!
LOL. That is exactly what they said on theregister.com when I used it as an example of the validity of ethnicity in terms of statics. Some BLM-take-the-knee-loving white inverted-racist and I were arguing over the fact that Google AI’s identified black men as gorillas is/isn’t racist.
This ‘white guilt’ sad excuse for an Englishman said “how could the ethnicity of an individual be remotely relevant?” to which I replied look at the crime crimes. His response was to cite that blacks get worse treatment for parole, remaind and longer jail sentences, but could not answer why they still commit so many more crimes other than poverty.
I then said that comparative figures of whites in poverty still show a massive difference in crime rates between black and white.
He then went on to say that it was because of racism. LOL. Cause he couldn;t refute my argument. Then I posted the above Twitter link showing how blacks scores the lowest in IQ test and he said the IQ tests aren’t accurate. LOL. There were for many years considered to be the most accurate way to gauge general IQ, but once the tests started to show the reality of the differences between races, then NO, there are others social-babble aspects to consider.
The Register is an IT site and most are intelligent and many upvoted my posts. I think they are realising that the doublethink required to believe the nonsense being pushed by MSM in the face of contrary facts, is getting to much to swallow.
Sometimes I am so ashamed of white people.
White children ‘falling behind other groups at GCSE’

Home Office civil servants are threatening to strike over the government’s Rwanda deportation policy, with the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union claiming they are “going to have to consider” walkouts if members are “forced” to implement policies they consider unlawful.

consider unlawful.
consider unlawful.
Everything could be considered “unlawful.” – ha h aha ha

In The Road to Serfdom, published in 1944, FA Hayek argued that the “worst get on top” in collectivist societies. This is exactly what is happening in Britain: with a few laudable exceptions, today’s civil servants are less competent than their predecessors, but have more power and an inflated sense of their own importance. Buoyed by the Blairite legal revolution that Brexit has only partly undone, and encouraged by the intellectual weakness of the Conservative Government, their psychology has shifted dangerously.

Dulles is one of the key spooks in the globalist order, a Kissinger of the earlier twentieth century but with much more power and influence.
He was one of the early members of the CFR and was undoubtedly involved in the financing of the Nazis by Wall Street which the BBC and the rest fail to ever mention. Most people still buy into the story that the West was defending freedom in both World Wars. Nothing could be further from the truth. Both wars were instigated by the banksters on Wall Street and The City of London who laundered money through large US corporations like IBM, Ford, etc. that constituted the enormous war machine that was built up in the 1930s and 40s and delivered trillions in profit. It also helped to consolidate their power, the fruits of which we are seeing today. Don’t forget, founded in the eleventh century, the CoL is its own state within a state and wields enormous power and influence. Who provided the screen at the coronation of Clown Prince Charlie and who did the aforementioned Clown swear allegiance to in that secret ceremony no one was allowed to see or hear? There was lots of symbology there if you care to look and it is not Christian in origin. It is the worship of Mammon. You only have to look at the current ‘war’ in Ukraine to see how easy it is to manipulate a gullible public into supporting fascist regimes. The West was never on the side of the angels. What it did have and still has is the Tavistock Institute (aka BBC) and Hollywood and the best propaganda money could buy. I have to say though the propaganda at this stage is becoming nothing but more comical by the day.
Interesting stuff. WWII war started by Wall St and the City of London. Nothing to do with a certain A. Hitler. Or was he working for Goldman Sachs?
Please pay attention Tory Voters, he is coming to get you !…………

As is apparent from the evidence I have received and which is set out in my Report, some members of BBC staff were aware of Savile’s inappropriate sexual conduct in connection with his work for the BBC. I will summarise my findings on this topic shortly. Before that, I have to decide at what level of management awareness should properly be attributed to the BBC as an institution. There is no established legal test for determining this issue.

Most, but not all, of the more serious incidents of rape and attempted rape and some of the more serious sexual assaults I have described took place on Savile’s own premises and not at the BBC.
They were, however, connected with Savile’s work for the BBC.
Usually, Savile either met the victim at the BBC or else he groomed the victim by offering the opportunity to attend the BBC before taking the victim elsewhere, often to his home or camper-van. In addition to these incidents which occurred on his own premises, Savile would gratify himself sexually on BBC premises whenever the opportunity arose and I heard of incidents which took place in virtually every one of the BBC’s premises at which he worked. These included the BBC Theatre at Shepherd’s Bush (in connection with Jim’ll Fix It and Clunk Click), Television Centre (in particular in connection with Top of the Pops), Broadcasting House or Egton House (where he worked in connection with BBC Radio 1), Lime Grove Studios and various provincial studios, including Leeds, Manchester
and Glasgow.
