    England are in a World Cup Final for the first time since 1966!

    This kind of talk makes me laugh. It’s all part of the wider agenda to eradicate the idea that men and women are different.

    Yet the differences between the sexes are to me blatantly obvious when you watch football. It’s not just the skill level I’m talking about. It’s the female psyche that is expressed in greater indecisiveness, the reluctance to take control, the tendency to defer, the lack of spatial awareness, the inability to see killer passes, the incapacity to dig deep and fight back when apparently beaten.

    Think back to 1966. The drop in standards of broadcasting is also painfully evident. Instead of the dulcet tones of the dignified Kenneth Wolstenholme, we now get the unintelligible proletarian gibberish of raucous lesbian Fara Williams grating on the ears of the viewers.

      Hello Zelazek

      The bbc is keen as its cheap to “sponsor”

        This is far deeper than the cost of advertising. Around 10 years ago the BBC Trust was pushing the female football agenda. It was asking audience research loaded questions then announcing audiences wanted more female football on the tv. I could see the methodology but didn’t understand the agend. It all fits in with esg and the diversity and equality stuff. This March of the Left in the institutions has been going on a long time.

      I think it was Gabby Logan who said that on air today. Thing is, if they want to play that malarkey it isn’t even true.
      England won the FIFA U-20 World Cup in 2017.

    The Islamic Broadcasting Corporation are still refusing to show the photo of the father of murdered 10-year-old Sara Sharif – even though he seems to have disappeared since her killing, and may well be one of the 3 suspects the police are searching for.

    So, as a concerned citizen, here he is. Anyone who sees him should notify the police (assuming he hasn’t fled back to Pakistan).

    Once again, the BBC are shielding a potential child abuser and murderer. But then, they have form.

    Further to an above post…….
    The BBC report that all the authorities connected to the Malkinson case knew in 2009 that the conviction was dodgy and new DNA evidence was available.

    Did those authorities include the Crown Prosecution Service and the Director of Public Prosecutions.
    You’d assume they would, yes? After all, they prosecuted him in the first place.

    Intensely important to point out ad infinitum that the DPP in 2009 was……Keir Starmer !!!

    I’m sure we can rely on the investigative journalists at the BBC to point this out.

    However, there is one fly in the ointment. Have you seen the team? Um, how can I put this?

    Let’s just say there’s a noticeable lack of diversity.

      They tried inserting the diversity but she got sent off and banned for cynically standing on another player (in her studded boots) in a tantrum because she didn’t get a foul.

      Luckily knives aren’t allowed on the pitch.

      It’s interesting to note how they complain when BAME are under-represented in the womens team but not when Whites are under-represented in the mens teams.

      Which is direct confirmation of the double-standards and racism of the Left.

    Someone should tell ‘Michael Race, BBC business editor’ that positive inflation means prices are still going up, not coming down.

    Not quite sure how ‘flights and hotels’ actually keep all the other prices high either.

    Still – I’m quite certain Michael didn’t get his job because of how good he is at it. He got it because of his politics. Many of their articles are virtual nonsense these days.

      The new voice doing business on TOADY is Will something or other but there is also Felicity known as ‘Fliss’ – again I have heard the surname but cannot remember it. The BBC is over rewarded (by the TellyTax) and very overmanned and some or many of its Presenters, Editors and correspondents are overpaid, especially for what they do.

    Media tub-thumping for the dirty blonde pony tailled, the monstruous regimen and the Covid cohort edition

    Good morning dear readers and may one initially prevail upon those hereabouts to excuse Mr AsI as he blows: The First Blast of the Trumpet Against the Monstruous Regimen of Women – as John Knox, Scots religious radical and pamphleteer would have it way back in 1588 – for the reason that our entire press corps – almost to a man – are declaring as their top story: England roar into first world cup since 1966 (Daily Express) – that organ momentarily forgetting it has hitherto proudly flown the old blue and yellow from the masthead and has loyally been through thick and thin: United with the people of Ukraine – barring a rare high day and holiday.

    This must be a red letter day indeed marked by the running down of that blue and yellow flag – replaced by St Georgia’s (?) cross. John Knox’s trumpet perhaps contends with the bugle calling last post – metaphorically.

    Uncanny valley

    Why do all our Lionesses look so alike? Apart from that one black lass who stamped on the girl from the other team. Are the rest of them AI manufactured replicants?

    The invasion force of this team of two dozen over-excited dirty blonde pony tailled females – subs and all (where’s the diversity?) onto our newspaper frontpages leaves space for little in the way of other news – which tends to cramp Mr AsI’s style.

    Take a day off

    Coronaphobic and keen working from home fans over there at the ‘i’ newspaper seize on any excuse for a day off work: …star team …with convincing victory against co-hosts – as calls grow for Bank Holiday

    It must be time for a rethink of the term Bank Holiday – with those institutions fast disappearing from our high streets and all banking becoming 24/7 virtual.

    Speaking of holidays, I’m afraid it is likely to be a staycation for most of us as the killjoy Guardian comes out against mass tourism: Wish you weren’t here! How tourists are ruining the greatest destinations

    Too cool for school

    A-level pupils demand appeals over downgrades… Students face lower A-level grades… after exam boards were asked to ‘correct’ the number of higher marks awarded by teachers during the Covid pandemic (‘i’) – teacher needs to do his job and ‘correct’ that line: higher marks awarded by teachers during the Covid pandemic Lockdown

    Come back to school, Keegan begs absent pupils on results day… Education Secretary… Gillian Keegan… “I wouldn’t actually describe it as truancy. I think what’s happened with attendance is a lot of young people have lost their confidence” (Telegraph) – yeah, that’s right Gillian luv, that State-sponsored pandemic media blitz project fear will have tended to work best on and done more long-term damage to the young – even though they were practically immune from any serious harm

    This year’s children… the first Covid cohort to experience pre-pandemic grading – will they never learn? And this shoddy piece of work is from the Telegraph which should know better: the first Covid Lockdown cohort to experience pre-pandemic pre-Lockdown grading

    And finally, in the category of news revelations one likes to term – well, you could have knocked me down with a feather

    Clapham stabbing: New images released of homophobic attack suspect… [photo credit Met Police Handout not Getty Images] Det Ch Insp Jivan Saivb asked if members of the public recognised the man’s clothes and mask (BBC) – but not of course the fact that the supect is black

    And as anarcho-rockers Chumbawamba in their one hit wonder Tubthumping announced back in 1997: I get knocked down, but I get up again

    But here comes the BBC completely out of the blue wielding yet another shock revelatory plot twist to a crime news story (not)

        That’s right. There isnt one.
        Because entrepreneurs and inventors get rich first, creating inequality, they don’t take risks and invent to be the same, just as ordinary mortals rarely apply for a promotion in order to earn the same money.

        The ‘fairness’ arises when the successful get a guilt complex or when the ruling class get jealous. The result is usually big state, high tax. Rather like the UK just now. And what a success that has been.

    Home page: University intake this year looking especially vibrant in the way that the BBC so wishes life in the UK to be.

    ‘Testing Times’ they are indeed, although mostly for those of us not worried about exam results.

    bbc is worrying about a big nose

    Bradley Cooper: Leonard Bernstein’s family defend actor over Maestro nose row
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-66526446

    Any news to report? Maybe a panorama could be broadcasted about the nose.

    Pathetic what the bbc has become

    Interesting piece in the telegraph today advising those under 50 to consider dumping the UK for better countries. Taking a family to permanently settle else must be a real challenge .

    But the writer points out the vast failures of the UK to look after itself and the consequences – which I personally think we are really only starting to taste -meaning the sort of disorder / terrorism / tribalism we’ve suffered in thr last decade or two is nothing compared to what useless blue labour regimes have stoked up .

    My view as the Uk becoming a failing state continues …..

      You are right about this. In the past this has been called ‘White Flight’ but more accurately it is probably people who do not wish to live amongst ‘urban junkies’. Shop closures will quickly follow as in San Francisco. The elected representatives like the little khant will say ‘So What’. Travelling is not a problem for them in their convoy of bullet proof ‘Range Rovers’. The die hards will exit the cities to live in guarded ‘Gated Communities’ well away from the nearest township, as they do in South Africa.

      It’s a damn shame

    Doubleplusgood for the department of social engineering: ‘How is sign language adapting to climate change?’

    “For deaf children, teachers and scientists, talking about things like “greenhouse gases” or “carbon footprint” used to mean spelling out long, complex scientific terms, letter by letter. Now they are among 200 environmental science terms that have their own new official signs in British Sign Language (BSL) […] experts behind the update hope the new vocabulary will make it possible for deaf people to fully participate in discussions about climate change, whether it’s in the science lab or classroom.”

    Not BBC.

    I heard today that the UK birth rate is down to its lowest level since 2002.
    I also heard that one third of all babies born had a mother who originated in India!!
    Two issues.
    1. Why are they here at all?
    2. The ticking demographic time mob. White people will be in a minority in this country within a small number of generations. But I doubt we will ever benefit from positive discrimination and special minority protections.

      Stuff, back in the 70s I knew a National Front member. He said back then ,” that unless something is done we’ll be living amidst a coffee coloured population in 50 years time ” Well, despite the outrage the organisation caused at the time, he was far from wrong – just looking at the TV ads confirms his prediction.
