UK based Muslim terrorism/criminology lecturer says terrorism surveillance is racist. The FBI no fly list has been leaked, showing 350,000 names with various spellings of:
– Mohamed
– Ali
– Mahmoud
“This report once more reveals the troubling reality of the FBI’s watchlist system, and the #Islamophobia that systemically dominates counter-#terrorism in the US and beyond which urgently needs dismantling.”
Troubling reality = yes
Islamophobia = no
Far Right Ones?
Or are those who MI5 and BBC Drama are struggling to monitor?
Let us all stop funding UK terrorism! It would seem Khalid Masood (Westminster Attack 22.03.2017 5 Innocents Killed) was on benefits which comes out of National Insurance payments by the workers of the UK. Thus, it would seem prior to these findings the workers in the UK were unknowingly funding terrorism. But now we know terrorists operate using welfare benefits it would seem we are knowingly paying terrorists.
Can I suggest that the Government please make sure NI payments by UK workers don’t go into the hands of terrorists by removing the terrorists in the first place. Can you also calculate how much we have/are funded terrorism via welfare benefits by simply getting all known terrorists (left,right,islamic) arrested to-date and those on the watch list and check welfare payments made to them or their immediate family (under various names possibly).
Another example is where imams preaching intolerance such as Anjem Choudary (preached hate 1999-2016) to his hundreds of worshippers (5 times a day, everyday), can all imams be checked if they are on welfare benefits, paid by UK workers, and these payments be stopped immediately. It is the community that needs to fund the imams if they want religious teachings, similar to how the Church of England was funded with donations in the past.
The father-of-four (Anjem Choudary preaching hate 1999-2016) takes home more than £25,000 a year in benefits and lives in a £320,000 house in Leytonstone
“…and don’t you worry. It’s coming to a place near you…we cannot have state subsidized preachers…give it up or give it to your deadliest enemy and pay for the rope that will choke you.“

Miriam Margolyes makes Vogue cover debut at 82
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-65908540
Vogue has sussed what gets desperation hit ratings.
BBC uses this for the same reason, via one degree of separation.
Maybe some AI involved … I saw some tweets yesterday (related to the Vogue piece) with a naked pouting Miriam – no sound or smell thankfully – bad enough tho.
Tomo – I hope you bleached your eyeballs afterwards!
The BBC like Gargoyles… can’t put my finger on whether it’s her (far) leftwing politics, rants about heterosexual white men, or loud and proud endorsement of her own lesbianity.
Just one more reason (among many), I’m not likely to start reading Vogue any day soon.

“Why Donald Trump Cannot Get a Top-Tier Lawyer”
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/19725/donald-trump-lawyer
I don’t think we have a branch of, “The 65 Project” here. Just think of Tommy Robinson and the BBC and mainstream media and it is obvious they fulfil that role.
Bit rich this coming from Chris Mason in his usual anti-Conservative rant…
“Remember, today isn’t about parties during Covid.
It is about the fundamental pillars upon which public life – and society at large – is constructed.
Conduct.
Behaviour.
Believability.
Integrity.”
If beebolics were’nt such cheats with the news and didn’t lie by omission, they’d get a few more taxpayers on their side, but as they have nothing to do with these four issues, it’s yet another nail in their coffin.
Hello Scroblene – I think the whole thing shows to gap between the views of the swamp ( and what it thinks is important ) and what the Great British Public think .
The problem ? A lot of people like nut nut – ‘a character ‘ – they know what he is like – and accept it .
The big disappointment was that he wasn’t a conservative – could do detail – and had poor support – ie the people who do the real work and keep on the straight and narrow ( impossible ?)
People wanted a human being – not a ‘career politician ‘ like Cameron – rishi – May – truss – and they accepted his imperfections .
What we have now is ‘moral high ground crap ‘ being spouted by the scum ginger girl and the like . Parliament is just a dump .
I think many people thought Boris was flawed, but upbeat, intelligent, and unusually among politicians, something of a ‘doer’. He likes to clown around, has a natural charisma, and a ‘common touch’, he’s massively self confident and an excellent public speaker (Peppa Pig excepting) – how much is real, and how much coaching/an act, who knows?
He was deeply unlucky with Covid (both in terms of timing and personally), and dropped the ball on Brexit – having battled nearly all the way to the touchline against the odds with it first.
Despite many attempts, they haven’t managed to dig up much dirt, other than he’s had a number of affairs (with adult women, mind), which suggests to me he probably has less to hide than many public figures.
There have been plenty of worse MPs, and worse PMs, he could have done better, he could have been so, so much worse – and, at least he wasn’t Corbyn!
Big
The coming ‘debate’ on Monday about the report promises to diminish politicians even further ( hopefully) .I’m guessing Harmon will be keeping quiet until then – although that will be tough for her.
But I suppose convention is to address the commons rather than the taxpayers …
Lindsey Hoyle will go full berkow
Excellent summary, Big!
Who wants another failure like Major or Cameron farting around with issues they are too stupid to understand!
I wonder if there was ever a Stupid Party, who would be in the cabinet when they struggled into power…
Oh Hell, what a nightmare I’ve just described…
Names on a whole ream of copy paper please!
Fed, “he wasn’t a conservative – could do detail – and had poor support”
I might agree on the first but Bojo could not do detail but even with good support of Dominic Cummings and Lee Cain and David Frost he still could not do detail enough to get a proper Brexit done and dusted!
Up2
Apologies – that was a typo – he couldn’t do detail – he blagged his way and got away with it via the buffoon / classics act . Such a shame – such a hard struggle to flush the bercow parliament into the sewer and then a huge majority wasted .
Anyone who must have tried to brief him must have torn their hair out because of his ADHD thingy ….
Covid is used as an excuse – he could have ring fenced other bits of his ‘aims ‘ to get on with stuff whilst the virus was kicking – especially after it became apparent that the losses would be in hundreds of thousands not millions …..
I’ve worked for similar types and had the ‘briefing job’ on complex and detailed subject matter . There is nothing worse than trying to explain complex stuff in a simplistic way knowing the attention span wasn’t there and stuff was going in one ear and out the other .
I’ve then sat in the background in a public forum watching my work be wasted … no wonder his staff didn’t hang around …
As I said before – I think the Monday commons show will be politicians at their worst ….

The NHS Test and Trace app did not cost £37 billion
https://fullfact.org/online/37-billion-test-and-trace-app-scam/
This is the total budget for the entire NHS Test and Trace programme in its first two years. In the 2020-21 financial year, the app cost around £35 million.
………………
In a damning report published today the Public Accounts Committee says “NHST&T has not achieved its main objective to help break chains of COVID-19 transmission and enable people to return towards a more normal way of life” despite being handed an “eye watering” budget of £37 billion over two years – and not managing to spend £8.7 billion of the first year’s allocation. Instead, since the end of October 2020 “the country has had two more national lockdowns and case numbers have risen dramatically”.

Justin Rowlatt’s missus doing a Panorama ‘Investigation’ with kindly old Dale Vince in his tribal hut?
The Rowlatt’s the BBC Eco Activist family : him, wife, sister.
The Times : https://archive.is/w1xUT
The BBC’s climate editor has been labelled a “campaigner” by colleagues after he was found in breach of editorial rules for the second time in less than six months.
Justin Rowlatt, the BBC’s first climate editor, was spoken to by executives after he reported misleading claims about extreme weather in a Panorama documentary last November.
The unit concluded last December that he gave an “inaccurate” impression of wind farm subsidies
Rowlatt, 55, has family members involved in climate-change activism. Cordelia Rowlatt, his sister, was fined for participating in an Insulate Britain protest on the M25 last year.
Bee Rowlatt, his wife, an author and former BBC journalist (20 years) , has been present at Extinction Rebellion protests, including one in 2018 in which Oxford Circus was blocked on Black Friday.
“Best thing about #blackfriday is Extinction Rebellion bringing Oxford St to a halt,” she tweeted next to a picture of protesters holding a banner reading “Rebel for life

Ukraine war: The challenges of training F-16 pilots
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-65897919
bbc condemns when Iran or China supply any type of weapons to Russia, but applauds when the West gives arms
Its all about the west bringing down Russia, and very little if anything in support of Ukraine
I’ve read that F16’s are only really valuable when they are used as part of the USA’s larger air-defence network and it’s unlikely Ukraine will ever get them.
But the BBC’s defence reporter seems to have missed that vital point.

Tranies and “pride”
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/are-you-proud-of-what-we-have-become/
IMHO they made themselves completely ridiculous by choosing the word ‘pride’.
I doubt anyone is actually ‘proud’ to be gay or transsexual. Just as I am not ‘proud’ to be heterosexual. It’s just agenda-based hypocrisy which seems to be norm these days.
Those who make a big song and dance about it (literally) seem to think it’s something to be proud about, and to shove down everyone s’ throats.
Meanwhile, plenty of gay people just quietly getting on with life, no big deal really (so long as they keep it to themselves – no one wants to know about my heterosexuality either), no idea about the ‘T’ etc… lot, don’t think I’ve ever met any (what percentage of the population are they again?), but have this possibly inaccurate notion that they’d make sure I knew within two seconds of meeting… like vegans.

Confession time. I’m listening to all TWATO’s offerings today because I think I missed a point in the headline summary at 1300.
It seems that trees are starting to grow at a higher level in the Monroes’ in Scotland. I tuned out at that stage because it was likely to become: “Unprecedented rise in temperatures” etc. However, half-tuned in, I just half registered another point. I’m sure the announcer said, or in effect, that Rowan trees are ‘returning’ to these altitudes.
“Returning”?………….
Update: they obviously ran out of time with a the lying Boris stuff so no mention of, “Returning”.
Think there’s just less sheep and deers up there eating everything in sight or something like that.

The Nottingham killer – named as -Valdo Calocane- doesn’t look like a candidate for the ‘mental issues ‘ card the bbc like to play to disappears unapproved stories …..time for another vigil …

“known to MI5 because he turned up to the agency’s London headquarters in August last year. and tried to get in.
He was told to move on and his name was taken down when he arrived at Thames House”
If true. that seems mental.

According to official UK bilateral aid statistics, the UK spent £68.4 million on aid to China in 2019, up from £44.7 million in 2015. Table 1 presents the breakdown of this aid by department or fund over the period from 2015 to 2019.
This kind of rhetoric by Biden gives credance to claims that they rigged the last election and is about as far away from ‘democracy’ as you can possibly get.
It’s ignoring things like this which show the BBC for what they actually are.

“Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi says the EU should pay Libya at least 5bn euros (£4bn; $6.3bn) a year to stop illegal African immigration and avoid a ‘black Europe’.
…
‘We don’t know what will happen, what will be the reaction of the white and Christian Europeans faced with this influx of starving and ignorant Africans,’ Col Gaddafi said…
…
He told them that Islam should become the religion of Europe and gave them free copies of the Koran, after he had lectured them for an hour on the freedoms enjoyed by women in Libya.”

THE SEVEN PRINCIPLES OF PUBLIC LIFE
SELFLESSNESS
Holders of public office should act solely in terms of the public interest. They should not do so in
order to gain financial or other material benefits for themselves, their family, or their friends.
INTEGRITY
Holders of public office should not place themselves under any financial or other obligation to
outside individuals or organisations that might seek to influence them in the performance of their
official duties.
OBJECTIVITY
In carrying out public business, including making public appointments, awarding contracts, or
recommending individuals for rewards and benefits, holders of public office should make choices
on merit.
ACCOUNTABILITY
Holders of public office are accountable for their decisions and actions to the public and must
submit themselves to whatever scrutiny is appropriate to their office.
OPENNESS
Holders of public office should be as open as possible about all the decisions and actions that they
take. They should give reasons for their decisions and restrict information only when the wider public
interest clearly demands.
HONESTY
Holders of public office have a duty to declare any private interests relating to their public duties and
to take steps to resolve any conflicts arising in a way that protects the public interest.
LEADERSHIP
Holders of public office should promote and support these principles by leadership and example.

item : a 5 min long ADVERT for thie first ever Scunthorpe LGBTQ+ Pride.
If you and 4 friends had an event to promote, the BBC might allow you a few seconds.
Here BBC staff have spent a lot of time crafting the piece
masses of archive footage with brainwashing background music.
The Boris Partygate inquiry debacle demonstrates that the left have taken a lesson from the Dems in the US.
They have realised that they can now “take-out” people they don’t like simply by getting the legal vultures onside who tend to be lefty sympathisers anyway.
This is simply a new and totally undemocratic pseudo-legalise-political weapon, devised in the US to crucify Trump and now picked up by the unscrupulous power hungry mongers on the left in the UK.
It is a trend that can only eventually lead to uproar on both sides of the pond. Reminiscent as it is of the criminal politicking for gain that swept through the corrupt in Italy and Spain in the past. Not to mention Germany in the 1930’s.
The absolute joke that is BBC Verify has descended into the World of crazy….
They publish a report on the BBC-claimed dire situation for the public in North Korea as fed to them by their own “sleepers” planted in the country and decide to use false names and cartoon images to “protect their sources”.
Apart from the obvious fact that there is no way anyone can verify these “sleepers” exist the only outcome that I can envisage coming from North Korea is a harder lock down and a hunt for any infiltrators spreading these stories to the West. This of course may easily lead to innocent citizens in NK being punished.
And all thanks to the BBC’s virtue signalling childish attempts to claim to be professional truth hunters.
You could end up with blood on your hands BBC!
North Korea sends “state-sponsored slaves” to Europe – rights group
By Emma Batha, Thomson Reuters Foundation

LONDON, July 6 (Thomson Reuters Foundation) – North Korea has sent hundreds of workers to labour as “state-sponsored slaves” in EU nations as Pyongyang seeks to circumvent international sanctions aimed at starving it of money over its nuclear weapons programme, rights campaigners said on Wednesday.

It goes without saying that the BBC can not be listened to but all the other channels are at it as well: Talk radio, LBC, Times Radio.
On and on and on and on. Like a herd of effing sheep.
It just astonishes me that they have suddenly discovered that a politician lies. Well no sh1t sherlock.
How about banging on about Springster lying and trying to fit up an honest man trying to get the truth out (i.,e. The Light newspaper).
“Nationwide latest lender to raise mortgage rates again”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-65921085
As mortgage rates rise and the subsequent house possessions take place, will the present government fill the vacant houses with illegal boat people ? The cost of hotels is now becoming prohibitive and an embarrassment to the ‘government’.
The corrupt landlords that buy up the repossessions, will be singing “When the boat comes in ” when the government rent them using British taxpayers money .
Roll on Reform UK !
Taffman – I think unless rates go up to nearer -say 8% – repossessions are going to be less than last time because of 35 year -40 year mortgages ….. where everyone plays the system … the banks get their remortgage ‘fees ‘ – people will think they can pay off their 35 year mortgage earlier than their 70th birthday ….
The ECB raised .25% today and looking at another 0.25% in July – suggesting the UK raises by 0.25% next week when it really should be much much more – …
Oooh er:

Letters in The Telegraph to the editor… today.
Letters: A progressive consensus at the BBC is at odds with its aim to be impartial
(Re: Nick Robinson on BBC impartiality claim).
I worked for five years in a relatively senior position at the BBC and observed that it was necessary to keep a copy of The Guardian on show at all times as proof of my acceptability to the corporation’s ethos.
The BBC and its friends provide all the partisan propaganda necessary for ensuring that they can broadcast the output they wish thanks to the income raised by the public that funds them.
(JA)
So true and yet, the BBC Nick Robinson (et al) seek to claim that they are under threat for their famous BBC brand of ‘impartiality’, unique they say! Except its an identikit CNN and New York Times premix localised with Socialist dogma flavored for the UK market. This they call ‘impartiality’. That and/or surrender to the EU, so the UK should no longer exist as a nation. This the BBC, claim is ‘value-for-money’ at just 69p per day. Even though we turned off a long time ago when we realised what they are doing. They are still at it, the liberal masters of the MSM media, all 8% of them (who call themselves liberals) are a danger to the wider public who do not share the doom and apocalypse the BBC presents daily as the only news in the world. Its worse than perverse – it has an agenda. Its only purpose is to pervert.
BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – now that is an interesting adjacency ….
…. was it deliberate BBC? On the Business Page, https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business we have an item about New Zealand slipping into recession because of high interest rates. Immediately to its right and alongside it has our Chancellor saying “UK has no alternative to interest rate rises”.
BBC royalty.
Raking in the audience too.
Some actual reporting from the east….
“The Taliban’s Successful Opium Ban is Bad for Afghans and the World”
https://www.usip.org/publications/2023/06/talibans-successful-opium-ban-bad-afghans-and-world
“The Taliban have done it again: implementing a nearly complete ban against cultivation of opium poppy — Afghanistan’s most important agricultural product — repeating their similarly successful 2000-2001 prohibition on the crop. But the temptation to view the current ban in an overly positive light — as an important global counter-narcotics victory — must be avoided”
United States Institute of Peace…🤡
I’m certainly no Taliban fan but you’ve got to give them credit now and again.
‘Terror based law enforcement’
Always more effective than the threat of 20 hours community service they would get here.
Bit late.
But must mention that on TWATO they covered the Boat sinking off Greece without mentioning that it was full of illegal migrants. It could have been a cruise liner!
Only at the end was there a passing inference of the type of cargo carried, mainly young men!
Typical BBC playing down the asylum seeker flood.
But wait.
Later we hear It may have been carrying huge numbers of children down in the hold.
Manna from heaven for the sentimentalist leftists.
Better let them all in.
After all, one child is one too many.
Harry and Meghan: Spotify ends podcast deal with couple
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65924584
An extremely friendly article by the BBC (as expected) which doesn’t go anywhere near the reasons for Meghans popularity ratings. They spend more words telling us how great it was than why it failed.
‘It follows Spotify’s announcement last week that it was cutting 200 jobs in its podcast division after a period of heavy investment in the medium, saying it was embarking on a “strategic realignment”.’
Meaning of course that Spotify have just learned what ‘Go woke, go broke’ actually means.

I’m sure the BBC has $20 million of other peoples’ money to dosh out to the American actress . Maybe a ‘crowdfunding ‘ thing to prevent her suffering hardship … the long slide in finances …..
….. but I’m still bugged …. The Nottingham murders . X3 in a day …… lots of vigils …. Black arm bands …..
But the bugging ? On the same day in londonistan there were x3 murders using knives …. Just an ordinary day – no vigils – no speeches by families – vicarious grief for people never met . Just saying really ….
….. the third worlder must be due to be charged late Friday / Saturday when no one is looking ….
AI to stop water pollution before it happens
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-65913940
No ambiguity there. AI is going to save the planet.
‘It’s hoped the pilot project in Devon will help improve water quality at the seaside resort of Combe Martin, making it a better place for swimming.’
Oh. Not quite so certain then.
‘Computer systems company CGI is running the artificial intelligence project with mapping experts Ordnance Survey.’
Here we go : due to the extreme hype from the likes of the BBC whose ‘science correspondents’ who simply quote what other people (with finanacial interests) tell them, we are witnessing the next ‘funding grab’ bubble. This time for ‘AI’.
The Environment Agency is the preeminent public body tasked with “minding the water” in England.
It is an NDPB. Few seem to appreciate what that really means. Non Departmental Government Body means that while they spend nearly £2 billion pounds, there is little effective control over what they spend it on and near zero oversight or indeed control over their antics.
The EA operates thousands of water sensors across the country but integration into a system that can be used to provide meaningful oversight on the state of water to the public is resisted – they actually volunteer that they can’t find competent staff.
The primary purpose of the EA is to continue and extend the bureaucracy.
When their poisonous managers indulge in some corruption they don’t fess up – they mislead and cover up – using their lack of direct oversight / control from DEFRA to “give the finger” to other parts of government seeking to control them.
Not a lot to like about the EA
BBC collecting pictures of graves in Ukraine claiming 25000 Russian soldiers have been killed . No mention of Ukrainian graves . I remember a thing about the Russians having mobile crematoria at the beginning of the war .
25 000 dead ? Not a lot for Russia …. A lot for Ukraine ….
All heroes according to the Daily Mail.

Today watch
Unusually – and a ‘first ‘ I must complement mr rajan on the demolishing job he did on Eddie Davey – the ‘leader ?’ Of the liberals who wants a money tree to subsidise people who too out very cheap mortgages and who can’t now afford them as rates return to normal .
Mr Rajan put out 4 reasons why his idea is crap – namely it will cost 4 billion to subsidise fools who over reached on their borrowing …. Instead of – say – paying carers more or fighting inflation .
By the time rajan got through the 4 idiot reasons poor old Eddie Davy had to pivot to yap about nut nut … what a light weight …
But surely it wasn’t the bbc job to act as opposition ?
Today again
The bbc wants to canonise the Islington champagne socialist called Glenda Jackson . I’ve listened to her ‘thatcher speech ‘ .as far as I’m concerned – no loss .
I listened to some eulogising on R4 while driving last night – Glenda sounded quite sane right up to the moment Fatcha was mentioned – then the bitchy acid started to flow.
There are some people on the notional left who when confronted by the essential truth that there is no magical money tree simply loose it and resort to wallowing in hatey invective against the people simply stating reality. That shallowness is their undoing.
Yes, I heard some of that political rabbit on LBC earlier today!
People may have forgotten that when she was starting out on trying to be an MP, her meetings were PR disasters, and in one broadcast/presentation to her ‘public’, she finished up resorting to telling feeble Essex girl jokes, much to the despair of her minders and embarrassment of the dwindling audience!
Margaret Thatcher did so much for this country; there would always be the negative nay-sayers who were the eqivalent of today’s elite, but the word meant nothing back then – likewise the people who specialised in such poor rhetoric.

Then it’s time to bypass the Home Office and “Stop the boats” . Have any been stopped yet ? Who is running this country ? We are now in a state of emergency, before long all the four star hotels will be full.
2012 … “Two and a half years ago, the coalition government was formed, and we made a clear promise to the British public. After thirteen years of uncontrolled mass immigration, this government would reduce and control immigration.” – Theresa May 2012
2015 … “Because when immigration is too high (no figure given), when the pace of change is too fast, it’s impossible to build a cohesive society.” – Theresa May 2015
