Now if someone impaled Anna Soubrery with a javelin because she`s a hypocrite , would Emily Maitless
1: think that all murders were abhorrent ?
2: think that Soubery deserved it because she was once a Conservative minister ( says a lot about the Tories ) ?
3: think it`s wrong because Foghorn Soubrey is part of the establishment ?
I reckon it`s 3 because Emily Maitless is also a two faced haradan who doesn`t even have the decency to show her other face which at least wouldn`t frighten the children .

Do we actually know if Maitlis, Sopel and Marr were kicked out of the Beebolic Swamp or did they jump when they realised that their ‘positions’ were untenable?
LBC is quite good with some presenters, (the above not included of course – well shove Lammy in there as well for good measure), but also has some appalling stuff which needs to be switched off as soon as the yapping starts! Rarely do phone-ins instigate more than a moronic display of ignorance, especially at night for some reason, and when Steve Allen had the early slot, he never had to resort to listening to incoherent gibbering from a tiresome bloke in Croydon or similar! Clive Bull nearly always finishes his set with a call from a bloke in Newport, who seems to read a prepared script which is usually boring and a bit daft!
The last time I listened to R5Live, I thought Dotun Adebayo was reasonable in his delivery, even though he had to cope with similar thick callers, but that was years ago…

Interesting that soubry still has an audience . She fought the democratic vote of a referendum – of all rare things – together with her ‘friends ‘ and when the election came she was thrown out of public office together with a great many of the remainer traitor vermin like her .
Yet she is still referred to? Why .
I checked the election result – Tory 26 k labour 21 k – soubry – 4k …. Wiped out – I bet those 4000 had connection £ to her …. The other 42000 were repelled by her and her mouth .

Former cool Britannia prime minister, mentor and would-be puppet master to Keir Starmer and obsessive digital ID proponent, Tony Blair, makes the frontpage of the Times this morning: Big backer Sir Tony Blair’s policy institute is being bankrolled by Larry Ellison, whose software group Oracle was a supplier of technology to his government
This brings to mind a clutch of assorted old headline reports
Keir Starmer taking advice from Blair and Brown as Labour gears up for government… Mr Starmer told the Times: “I’ve been talking to Tony Blair and Gordon Brown for some time now.. I’m conscious that we’ve been out of power for 12 years. That means I don’t have people around the shadow cabinet table who’ve got huge experience in government. So, I’m determined that we need to be ready to hit the ground running.” (Mirror)
As previously noted hereabouts the Labour-curious Times has been Sir Keir’s go to platform of late
Tony Blair gave Keir Starmer his blessing – and he needs it…With mad eyes, white hair and alarming teeth, Blair at 70 looks as if he has been raised from his tomb (Telegraph)
Sir Keir Starmer’s plans for ‘Lord Tony’ and second coming of the Blairites… in yet another U-turn, last week abandoned plans to close down the House of Lords in his first term and instead announced he will create up to 100 new peers… If he wins the General Election, the list may well include Labour’s last two prime ministers, Gordon Brown and Tony Blair. (Daily Mail)
Tony Blair is preparing to rule Britain again – and Starmer might just let him. The ex-PM may be only too happy to fill Labour’s vacuum of ideas. But what is his agenda really? (Telegraph)
Will Tony Blair ever give up on ID cards? (Spectator)
Digital IDs for all under latest proposals from former PM Sir Tony Blair (giveaway Metro)
Tony Blair and William Hague call for everyone to have digital ID cards… The former Labour and Conservative leaders have put their political differences aside to push for the roll-out of digital ID. (Sky News)
And do we perhaps envisage any problems with that notion of the central State computerising all our personal details?
Two data breaches that just defy belief… Details of more than 40 MILLION voters exposed in cyber attack on electoral roll… Security fears as name of EVERY Northern Ireland police officer is published in error (Daily Mail)
Any advance on 40 million on our electoral roll?
Elections chief admits: We were hacked… Cyber raid on 50m voters… allowing them access personal details… system was penetrated for more than a year… The Electoral Commission… still does not know who the ‘hostile actors’ are… (freebie Metro)
Any concern out there that these days, despite computerisation, (or perhaps because of?) the size of the electorate appears with a margin of error of 10 million? But we digress.
Cyber attack on voters’ register likely to be among biggest UK data breaches… “We do not know who is responsible for the attack” (FT)
Let’s think… who are the bad guys these days? Who can pin this one on?
China ‘will use electric cars to spy on Britain’… Imports from Beijing would help with net zero targets, but ministers fear technology could be used to harvest information on drivers (Telegraph) – could be the Chinese?
Someone tried to hack the Chinese electoral register – but they soon realised they were deeply in the Wongs
Meanwhile in the gung ho for Ukraine Times of London we enjoy one of those unhappy juxtapositions – right beside the frontpage pic of Sir Tony and his tech firm mogul mate out for what appears to be a trip once round the bay of somewhere exotic – in what looks like a pedalo – we have this headline: GCHQ fears Russians hacked electoral roll
The regime speaks via their designated mouthpieces: Sir David Omand, a former director of GCHQ… told BBC Radio 4’s PM programme “Russians…” (Times)
And for good measure: ...said he suspected that the Russians were behind the attack because of their recent interference in democratic elections in the UK, United States, France and Germany. (Times) – Really, Sir David? Evidence please?
The great nothing-burger.. Attorney General William Barr’s summary of the Mueller report — that special counsel Robert Mueller found no collusion between the Trump campaign and Russian operatives to undermine the 2016 election… As expected by anyone with an objective pulse, the Mueller investigation, after more than a year of intrigue, turned out to be a huge nothing-burger. From the beginning it was an old, tired, red-scare tactic (The Hill)
And finally…. speaking of nothing burgers…

As I’ve said here before … no PM is going to abolish an institution he might want to be a member of one day . As for Tony Blair becoming a peer – I think he’d need to shred his finances again before public interest checks – and the last thing a Pm barrister would want is another PM barrister as a competitor . Gordon brown obviously – is worthless .
My expectation of a huge red labour majority – 200 – might get moderated to a hung parliament at best .
The electorate wants to give blue labour a kicking and will old its’ nose at the monsters it will be replacing them with – one set of vermin for another ….
On the upside we might see less of those sour faced hate filled SNP types – replaced by red labour hate filled comrades …
Apart from raising taxes even more to throw at the feckless I can’t think what difference red labour will make from the current brand – although 5 years of blaming blue labour is gonna get boring real quick ….
…. As for data on the whole electorate being lifted from the electoral commission – is it any wonder ? Those muppets can’t even see fraudulent postal votes …. Anyone gonna get sacked ? No . Lessons learned ? No .

With apologies to Deborah and others, this is not meant to be anti Semitic nor an attack on Jewish people as a group, yet there appears to be in America a cabal of corrupt Jewish people intent on enriching themselves and pushing an evil political agenda without regard to the consequences providing they enrich themselves in the process.
Without a doubt, and with demonstrable evidence the Ukraine war is being aged in order to enrich this cabal.

Taffman,
“Stop the boats” No, no, no, that cannot happen during the course of enlisting, what will be the Government’s declared militia in due course of “Fighting Age Young Men” which will be called upon when and/or if the public revolt. It aint gonna be the police which, as we know don’t respond to crime even now. Naturally, that’s to the exception of serious crime, such as the range of Hate Crimes. Our military servicemen? The imports by rubber boat are, right now roughly equal to the army numerically.
The malitia could be engaged when their family join them and wish to take over houses selected but occupied / owned by “Whitee”. I’m sure Rich Sunak will find many uses for them to ‘physically’ quell the indigenous Brits.

But yet again, everyone has forgotten to mention the future pension liability. With wages always come pension liabilities.
Let us remember that civil servants, along with other public sector workers, get TOTAL inflation protection. So retired civil servants will be enjoying a pension increase of around 10% this year. And that is hard-wired into all future pensions for evermore. All paid for by current and future taxpayers.
No wonder simple services like maintenance of parks, gardens, and roads don’t happen. After pensions and the NHS, there is nothing left for anything else.

Post script.
How weird.
This morning (Thurs), the Times front page are going with the fact that public sector pensions are higher than Defence, Home Office, and Police.
Meanwhile the Telegraph front page are going with the fact that the number of civil servants on SIX figure annual pensions has trebled in the last few years, fuelled by a 10% pension pay rise this year alone.
Do we get more readers than we think?
Has the penny finally dropped?

And, with luck by living in a very insular, inbred and self-protected bubble they have emboldened each other with each added tripe dollop to the extent that at last the public with much better to do is noticing, fed up, and motivated to react.
Look at the US Footy Hairdos, Gillette, Budweiser, Disney Harry’s, etc on ‘ishoos’… people are voting with wallets.

As already commented on, the data breach of the electoral register and the NI Police come as no surprise to me The fact is that all Government data is available at a price to anyone that wants to pay for it. How do private investigators provide their services? There are moles in all places willing to provide.
My objection to the electoral register is that the Credit reference agencies have full access to the register. I believe that’s in return for the Government being able to use Credit reference data.

One of the ways to define bias at the BBC is to see who they refer to as independent and impartial.
On Toady this morning we had one of their favourites, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research. Their spokesman basically spent the ‘interview’ blaming Brexit for everything.
The NIESR has had a left wing, big state, high tax, anti-Tory position for as long as I can remember. Ideal go-to organisation then for BBC ‘impartial’ assessments.

Only problem with that, BBC, is that normally the single black person they dot the news with are killers with a knife.

My grandparents lived in Lancashire and most of the males at the time were self employed coal miners paid by the shift and their livelihoods and thus the very founding and existence of the Co-op was built on coal mining.

With a special link provided by the the UK Government for special names such as Muhammad, Mohammed and Mohammad (other names not so special)
We do not have a definitive answer for why the variations of the name Muhammad have generally risen up the rankings over time, but there are some possible explanations.
1. The increasing size of the Muslim community in England and Wales
2. The dominance of the name in the Muslim community combined with increased diversity in names for baby boys
3. The possible increased dominance of the name in the Muslim community
4. The possible effect of popular sporting figures with the names Muhammad and Mohamed
The term such as ‘increased dominance‘ is odd, when in maths you could use the term ‘increased occurrence’ instead.
dominance – power and influence over others
occurrence – the fact or frequency of something happening
Words do have meanings and some are more emotive than others.

Alcatraz closed several decades ago. These fine fellows look young, and have been there around a day.

Then there is Vile, using ‘quotes’ to maximum effect.
‘Calling out’ is code for ‘this guy is my hero and is saying what I’d like to’.
These propagandists were handed a platform by the BBC and abuse it daily.

They all do it to each other, but the BBc gets extra flouncy if done to them.
Oooo… ‘alleged’. Unlike say… many a BBC staffer’s antics.
And ‘claims’ (ditto). By renowned toxicity experts… MPs.

Yesterday BBC local TV/radio and ITV quickly reported ..no names
“Three men charged after woman is raped in Hull bogus taxi”
The charging happened well be before the news so they had time.
The ITV web report does name them
Safi Bakhtullah, 18
Habibullah Ahmadazai, 18,
Kaihan Safi, 25,
If two are name Safi that suggests to me they’re brothers
It’s an Arabic name
but is also used as a surname by the Safi tribal group from Afghanistan
FFS the BBC web report is so short, it leaves off the names too
The public know their game .. https://twitter.com/jonah25493223/status/1688900443156463617

“Hull University warns Pakistani students not to take part in any protest against the visiting Pakistani judges including Judge Humayun Dilawar or face serious consequences”
Strange A judge sentences Imran Khan then a few days later turns up at Hull University
The Imran Khan mob turn up to protest
There’s loads of fakenews with these types of protests .
Yesterday BBC and ITV chose not to report
.. It can be said reporting protests is not actual news
cos it is just free PR for agitators
but media pick and choose which one to report

Commentators on these ‘migrants’ always keep reminding us that we don’t know who they are and there could be some that are not genuine migrants in with them.
That gives the impression that they are just about all migrants fleeing for their lives and it’s possible a ‘bad ‘un’ will be in with them.
I would say there are probably less than 5% of these channel crossers who could be classed as genuine asylum seekers, probably even just 1%, and the rest are people wanting a better life in the UK.
I don’t believe for a second that they are mostly genuine asylum seekers as all the media’s are telling us.
The thing is, our ‘civil servants’ will grant just about all of them ‘asylum’ and any who are not granted asylum just keep on appealing and eventually get let in (or an amnesty comes along and thousands are simply nodded through)

Anyone who loves the BBC is left-wing, and anyone who hates the BBC is right-wing. This is why the BBC wants to lock up right-wing people who refuse to pay the licence fee. Its also why OFCOM insists GB News should be more like the BBC by sacking those that are right-wing. Pro-EU MP’s want Britain to be more like Communist China, by punishing those who stand up for right-wing causes such as democracy, individual freedom and free speech. Left-wing punishments supported by the BBC include Lockdown restrictions, Banking restrictions, Shopping restrictions, Fossil Fuel bans, arrests, bans, restrictions and death by compulsory jabs: https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/the-bbc-hopelessly-locked-in-its-bias-bubble
