    The putative one world government must be very confident that it has the power to complete its epoch defining project without the need to have the support of the majority of the people.
    Just look at the number of heavily disputed policies it intends to inflict on us .
    Net Zero and its multitude of sub projects to numerous to mention
    Forcing the likes of Poland and Hungary to take invaders or pay 17 k for each one they don’t take
    Having essentially open borders in the USA , EU and UK
    Digital currency and de banking people who have the ‘wrong views’ , ie the beginnings of a state social credit system just like China
    Draconian censorship of the internet and other measures against free speech such as the on line harms bill
    Imposing ridiculous rules about gender on everyone
    Lock downs, masks vaccinations

    I’m sure that there are plenty more examples.

    Few of these will get widespread public support but the politicians don’t seem to care. It’s as though they don’t need our votes!

      What makes me truly sick about reports like that is this:

      Use of child suicide bombers by Palestinian militant groups
      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Use_of_child_suicide_bombers_by_Palestinian_militant_groups

      When Israel kills civilians, they are collateral damage while they go after terrorists. The Palestinians kill civilians deliberately on the streets and try to murder as many as possible before they are martyred with a bullet. Yet the BBC refuse to call the terrorists because they think they can be considered to be ‘freedom fighters’.

      THESE are the people the BBC is supporting. How I wish we could send them to live with the terrorists and watch the results of their work. That might wake these complete idiots up.

      I was incensed by the obvious anti Israel venom this BBC creature spewed out so childishly throughout the interview with the ex Israeli president. He on the other hand gave a considered and believable account on what was happening. She came across as a childish ignorant BBC agitator and had obviously been primed by the factions within the foul BBC who there is no doubt hate Israel and support the terrorists trying to obliterate Israel.

      Why are there so many in the BBC with this anti Zionist fever?

      Maybe the legions of Muslims they are recruiting hand over fist !

      What the BBC ignore is the fact that a Muslim can lie to a non Muslim as this is accepted as legitimate and is even strongly encouraged within their faith if it advances and protects their situation.

    Just happened to catch BBC2 programme called “A grand tour of Scotland’s rivers”. Presenter comes across a wee Ukrainian church and the archivist of the church explains his and others connection to Ukraine. Turns out his and their forefathers were POWs who had fought for the Germans against the Soviets but had surrendered to the British rather than the Soviets and had been allowed to settle in Scotland – got on well with the locals working on farms etc. Of course the only info the BBC omitted to say was the type of regiment these Ukrainian ex POWs belonged to. Er, umm

      Of course the truth is that these nurses – and all of those on Windrush – came here for far more money and a far, far better standard of living than they could ever have had if they didn’t.

      They had zero interest in saving our health service or rebuilding our country. That was just what they had to do to get it.

      And of course the BBC + everybody else know it. But we now live in a strange world where truth is very low on the priority list. Ideology and group-think have taken over.

    Tunisians are as pissed off as most other countries with the surge of African migrants into their country causing mayhem.

    Unlike other countries they have come up with their own solution which is to deal with the migrants directly rather than wait for their government to do anything.

    A good lesson for the rest of Europe in my opinion.

    Professor Emily Shuckburgh – probably doesn’t need to worry about paying expensive green energy bills, as she has a fortune in the bank!

    Mark my words, the decrease we are experiencing in our energy bills from this month is only a temporary reduction, in the winter when we all spend more the bills will go through the roof again! Energy companies will make more profits and the Exchequer will be pleased with the extra VAT payments. Totally being ripped off again like last winter – lets blame the Russians, right!

    Not many people on Twitter seem to be buying the BBC’s report ‘Boy left unclothed after Burgess Hill sexual assault by two women’.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-sussex-66107716

    The ‘two women’ are described as 6ft 3in and 5ft 9in tall.

    Here are some of the tweets about it:

    – ‘Both women were between 18 and 20 years old, one being 6ft 3in (1.9m) tall’. A rare 6ft3 “woman”. Thankfully the BBC is here to protect us from misinformation.

    – Marianna Spring, you may wanna look into this…

    – The only time the BBC knows what a woman is, is when it’s highly likely or definitely likely to be male.

    The BBC may just be regurgitating a Sussex Police press release, but that doesn’t make it any better.

    The future is an experiment that began yesterday edition

    One of those oft-repeated conspiracy theories dear to the hearts of the tinfoil hat brigade is represented by a slogan picked up from the World Economic Forum and warns of the masses impending surfdom: You’ll own nothing and be happy is a phrase originated by Danish Politician Ida Auken in a 2016 essay for the World Economic Forum. (thank you Wiki)

    Pure stuff and nonsense of course…

    Meanwhile, over there at the globalist Financial Times: Japan Airlines gives tourists chance to travel light by renting holiday clothes… pack underwear and toothbrush but rent all your clothes on arrival and ditch the environmentally unfriendly suitcase… Under a year-long experient that began yesterday… the scheme is designed for travellers hoping to make a “sustainable choice”

    Remember folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory, if it’s true

    Welcome To 2030: I Own Nothing, Have No Privacy And Life Has Never Been Better… Welcome to my city – or should I say, “our city.” I don’t own anything. I don’t own a car. I don’t own a house. I don’t own any appliances or any clothes… (Ida Auken, ‘Young Global Leader’, Forbes) – We won’t own any clothes, luv…? Even the Japanese will allow tourists to keep their own tighty-whities.

    Note the bit about her city being not ‘mine’ but instead it is termed ‘ours’.

    One takes that as code for hyper-immigration removing all notion of native identity and culture formerly belonging to places.

    Born and bred Londoners don’t claim to have ‘owned’ their former city – but they can certainly now recognise it’s not theirs anymore – it is a open to the globe ‘economic zone’ – as our Rishi would put it. Supposedly ‘built by migrants’ as that other sub-continent manlet – Little Man Khan would pretend. I thought it was the Romans who first built London – but what did they ever do for us?

    Our Mickey Mouse Immigration policy

    Lords must not defy will of the people – pleads the Rishi loyalist Daily Express – playing distraction for the former Goldman Sachs office boy so he can blame the likes of the Archbishop of Wokery for his own failure to act decisively

    Micky Mouse vs immigration minister – that’ll be Micky Mouse vs Goofy in the left-leaning comic book which is the ‘i’ newspaper

    The U.K.’s Immigration Minister Ordered the Removal of Cartoon Murals at an Asylum Center to Avoid ‘an Impression of Welcoming’… When U.K. immigration minister Robert Jenrick visited an asylum centre in Kent, he allegedly took issue with the cheerful murals of cartoons characters in the reception area and ordered their removal. Jenrick wanted it to be clear that this was a “law enforcement environment” and “not a welcome centre”… Thus far, the centre’s staff has refused to acquiesce to Jenrick’s “cruel” demand. (Art Net News – edited for American spelling of the word centre – presumably tired of the stale pale old masters their artsy journos now apparently serving new masters)

    Just think about the symbolism here. Micky Mouse – the very image of the American global cultural empire – forever and without question – welcoming with a goofy smile and open arms – the third world – to Britain

    And why should public employees do as the British public would want them to do – or as limp-wristed elected ministers pretend they would want them to do?

    As those automated warnings now order us at the railway station escalators “Hold the hand rail and face the direction of travel”

    How about the cops hire Banksy to decorate all our police stations to make them more welcoming? Mind you, he can be a bit too edgy, a tad spicy, not really suitable for kids. I know – the police can paint their own murals of Peppa Pig.

    Starmer speaking to BBC as Pincher ‘groping’ report due
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-politics-66115262

    Just look at this : the next evolution of the BBC ‘Live update’ reporting. Why on Earth does such a topic warrant ‘live updates’ ??. They should simply write a summary after he finished. This latest trick allows them to write a new headline for everything he says.

    Starmer couldn’t get better PR than this even if he paid for it. It’s out and out activism.

    They even mention the Tory ‘groping’ report in the headline when it has absolutely nothing to do with the article. It’s a blatant trick to associate ‘Labour Good, Tory Bad’ in the mind of the reader.

    Look at this latest update : it’s got nothing whatsoever to do with ‘Starmer talking to the BBC’. It’s 100% propaganda:

    ‘What are Labour’s five ‘missions’ for the country?
    Labour’s five “missions” are a set of promises that the party will centre their campaign around at the next general election.

    Here’s a recap of what they are:

    Securing the “highest sustained growth” in the G7 group of rich nations, by the end of Labour’s first term
    Making Britain a “clean energy superpower”, removing fossil fuels from all of Britain’s electricity generation by 2030
    Improving the NHS
    Reforming the justice system
    Raising education standards’

    Not that long ago, the BBC would not dare run such a biased promotional piece as this. But after everything they have got away with since Brexit, they are confident nobody will question it now.

    Sacking OFCOM is not enough. They should be jailed for the damage they are allowing the BBC to do to this country.

    The BBC party might attract a few like minds such as Harmon – for her support of Paedophiles – Corbyn for his support of terrorists – Chinese barry for his support of the PRC …. The list is – of course – is endless .

    At the end of the starmer interview – there was no bbc droid to ‘decode ‘ ‘reinterpret ‘ what was just said – usually the opportunity the bbc uses to plunge the knife into some blue labour imbicile stupid enough to go on the BBC

    TOADY Watch #2 – an opportunity to mention that Brexit has failed and the EU is wonderful

    I am told that the UK is about to join the EU’s Horizon project which the EU have gracefully allowed after the UK did not go all scientific and ‘nuclear’ invoking article 16 of the Withdrawal Agreement and effectively welshed on the people of Northern Ireland. Apparently, if Rishi Sunak our PM doesn’t sign the access agreement to Horizon there will be a lot of UK scientists who are upset with HMG. Apparently we will get lots of money from the EU for scientific research in the UK.

    I am left wondering what the quid pro quo will be? We have to contribute £billions to the EU that we do not have – or – the EU get ‘copyright’ and ‘royalties’ on any discoveries that UK scientists come up with? I am guessing that it is the latter. Of course, the BBC did not mention the downsides of this piece of news; they never do where the EU is concerned.

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/australasia/vegans-steak-restaurant-protest-animal-rights-rare-steakhouse-sydney-australia-a8183831.html

    Tactic one is to turn up and enter the restaurant and make life uncomfortable with the other tiers by shouting about how disgusting meat is.

    Tactic two id to leave a mass of negative reviews online.

    Laws need to be put in place to crush this activity.

    Restaurant owners should be allowed to sue protestors who enter their premises trying to upset the other diner. The other diners should be able to sue for the disruption to their evening.

    Review companies should be forced to collect personal data from anyone leaving a review, names, verifies email addresses and home address etc. and any false review subject to legal action by the restaurant.

    Mister Claret

    Last night on BBC News their Anjana Gadgil said “Israeli forces are happy to kill children” while interviewing former Israeli PN Naftali Bennett.

    When he asked her how she would define an armed 17 year old shooting at her family, she said that the UN had defined militants as children.

    Since the segment aired, Gadgil appears to have deleted her social media profiles, while the BBC itself has apologised – describing her language as ‘inappropriate’ and ‘not phrased well’.

    https://www.dailymail{DOT}co{DOT}uk/news/article-12269925/BBC-apologises-news-anchor-says-Israeli-forces-happy-kill-children-interview.html

    Deleting stuff and muttering insincere wibble like that is very BBC, and something the BBC would not allow a child accused of racism by another’s parent.

    “We’ve stuffed ourselves with the good things we’ve created, yet still yearn for meaning. The recent riots are a sign of our despair.”

    No doubt Abe means well, and is American, and seems likely Jewish, but the use of ‘we’ in the wrong hands, such as those of the BBC, is a great distraction tool.

    Most French have done nothing to warrant this. Their political clowns (admittedly elected in, if via rapidly skewed democratic processes) have created it all. Same here.

    And these riots are not primarily to do with capitalist democratic yearning, but autocratic Islamic takeover. Though globalist shovelling of young useless males from other alien cultures into festering ghettos does not help.

      They think the are defending Muslims by quickly ruling Islamic Terrorism out. What it actually says is that they do this kind of thing so often, we have point out it wasn’t them this time.

      The amusing thing is that the only time they use the word ‘terror’ is when it wasn’t a terrorist. They refuse to use that word if it was.

          Quite Andy.

          And of course when it IS terrorism but they want to keep it quiet until the story dies down a bit, we get:

          ‘Not thought to be terror-related’. Which means the guy who did it is probably a Muslim – but he wasn’t carrying written instructions from ISIS HQ when he did.

      An ‘out-of-control-vehicle’? Is it ‘out-of-control’ because the driver is from the religion of peace like in Tel Aviv, or is it because of a ‘sudden-medical-emergency’ as caused by the vaxxxxxx?

      I guess one thing we know is that we will be told neither the religion of the driver nor if the driver had been vaxxxxxed.

    Stumbled across the BBC’s ‘Racism’ page.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/topics/cmj34zmwx21t

    And – entirely as expected – not a single instance of anyone being racist at white people.

    Why is that ?. Is it that non-white people are not racist ? – or that the BBC most definitely are ?.

    I found my last point while looking at this story from GB news:

    Labour councillors in sectarian chanting and leafleting scandal in Walsall
    https://www.gbnews.com/news/walsall-news-labour-councillors-sectarian-chanting-leafleting-latest

    This is promoting hatred at the highest level. They are calling the Muslim minority sect ‘apostates’ which in Muslim-speak basically means they deserve to die.

    And of course BBC have not covered it at all.

    The BBC do quote one of the men in an article : when a court found that an article shared by a mayor was not racist, Labour leader Aftab Nawaz told the Local Democracy Reporting Service he was stunned by the decision. “We are shocked,” he said. “The decision is a huge slap in the face.

    This is exactly why the BBC disgust me so much. They are liars and hypocrites of the worst possible kind. They do it behind a mask of moral superiority. They are evil and dangerous.

    Threads could cause real problems for Twitter

    Well, yes, Jim, it is worse than that.

    Knowing the power of celebrity, Mr Zuckerberg has also utilised celebs on Instagram and managed to get some of them on Threads

    Likely the same who flounced to Master Bates because… ‘Obama’.

    But the really issue is Every. Single. Media. Clown. doing free PR for Zux, because… ‘Obama’, meany all employed by the BBC and its TNI partners, Jim, in America.

    An whether you can convince those who by now know what you are up to and how you operate.

    Some may recall how easily Zux can be instructed and swayed by the Blob on such gems as Covid jabbery, and how he was propped up by the MSM, Jim.

    And how you guys and the MSM targeted Musk on anything as a pack.

    Think a few posters on BBBC are grumpy about stuff they don’t see on Twitter?

    I sure as heck ain’t adding Zux censorship centre to Parler, etc in my S&M bin so you he can get back to ruling the narrative.

      The obsessed BBC Stephen Lawrence campaign to get the original detectives prosecuted:

      ‘The Crown Prosecution Service made its decision after considering a file of evidence for nearly three years.’

      Oh dear – it seems like there are a few things about the case the BBC did not tell us. Will they have a top-level meeting to ask why they spent so many resources on it when it was clearly all-agenda ?.

      Of course not. They don’t have to pay for it. The public do. They can do whatever they like and still get the money.

    Heels Up might be able to swing 50% of the voting population not identifying as other than heterosexual or choosy, but she will need to hit the trail early.

    But one suspects the full on campaign behind getting Threads to crush Twitter might be significant and maybe not a coincidence.

    Zux seems to be the kind of billionaire social media guy the state can work with.

    Skype has been bugging me to add Bing AI chat so I decided to test it out.

    I asked
    ‘Whats a good thing to eat with pork scratchings’

    First it insisted on telling me what pork scratching are – which I didn’t ask.

    Then it suggested sardines and spinach.

    Finally it patronised me with ‘Just be mindful of their high salt content and moderate your intake.’ which I didn’t ask either.

    So my brief foray to AI chat taught me it is exactly what I thought it was. Nothing like what the BBC tell me it is.

    Trans charity Mermaids loses challenge against LGB Alliance
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-65340857

    ‘Mermaids was set up in 1995 to support children and young people questioning their gender identity. It said the LGB Alliance sought to “destroy” its reputation and sources of funding.’

    Oh dear. Gay and Trans charities squabbling. One might be led to think these people are a bit nasty when they aren’t in the spotlight.

    I notice the author – LGBT correspondent Lauren Moss – was once ‘attacked with cup of hot chocolate’ according to the BBC – but they said Farage was only ‘hit by milkshake’, almost like he got in it’s way.

    The choice of words is entirely deliberate in both cases.

    Charging points for electric cars, as you will see not many are taking advantage, not surprising given the £80 fee for using it, however, in the background under the Blue High Lift, you can see the diesel generator being used to provide power for these recharging points

      Electric charging is going to be one of the biggest scams in the future because car drivers who are almost out of range will pay whatever it costs to be recharged.

      People with petrol cars will usually have more than 100 miles of range left when they refuel so can pass by if the price is very expensive.

    Fighting to free the women and children enslaved by IS
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-66108078

    Here’s an article full of horror and abuse beyond anything even the most extreme lefty activist can imagine.

    Hidden behind a tame and bland headline.

    Actually I’m amazed they even reported it at all. They don’t report about ISIS because they are actually ultra-strict Muslim’s and only different from many of those here by a question of degree. If there was no clash of agendas (ie if it were whites doing it to Muslims) it would be the outrage of the century. Instead all of these activist hypocrites are silent.

    In fact, they only use the word Muslim once – and that’s because it is in a quote from someone else.

      Yes John, exactly.

      I can’t believe the likes of the BBC going on about ‘forgiving’ Shahmima Begum and other ex-ISIS members, and ‘repatriating’ them, when it’s pretty obvious to any sane person that what they were part of was sheer evil. There must be tens of thousands of people who actually deserve our sympathy and support, because of what ISIS did, whom you rarely hear anything about.

      What has happened to the Yazidis and other minority groups (Syrian Christians, Assyrians, Druze, Copts, Armenians etc…) in the Middle East, not just because of ISIS, but over the last century, or more, because of Islam (and to a lesser extent, Jewish ‘extremists’ in Israel – who came about as a reaction to Islamic extremism, when you look into it) is appalling, and often overlooked,(like the grooming and rape of young girls in this country) apparently, just so as not to upset Muslims.

      Why do their ‘feelings’ come before basic humanity?!

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity_in_the_Middle_East
      Over a century of widespread persecution and massacre, and it’s very rare you hear anything about any of them.

      I’m an atheist, so it’s not about religion for me, it’s about being ‘fair’ and protecting the weak and the vulnerable (and the peaceful) from being victimised and persecuted.
