Dharshini David presented TWotWeee today and made quite a good job of it. At least she was better than the Noxious Naughtie. The BBC are overmanned though and could shed a few thousand jobs and cut the Licence Fee (a.k.a. TellyTax) substantially. I wonder who will be on TOADY tomorrow?
Well the weather has broken where I am with some rain. I don’t think the UK hit the 34 degrees the Met Office was forecasting at the beginning of the week although we nearly did at some some UK airport.
I am full of cold today……or is it? Do I just treat it as a summer cold rather than take a covid test? Hopefully it will have disappeared by tomorrow.
Summer cold Debs. Hot toddy, hot water bottle, warm jammies, on the other hand…… get well soon.
Thanks Brissels. I have needed the hot water bottle. Even though the weather has broken here things aren’t that cold. The hot toddy will have to wait until tomorrow.
Be careful tonight! Or just enjoy the weather!

This is the first in a series exploring the origins of common superstitions in the English speaking world, starting off with ‘bad luck comes in threes.’
Finding the origins of ‘bad luck comes in threes’ proved difficult and perplexing. Isn’t three supposed to be good luck?
https://folklorethursday.com/folklife/bad-luck-comes-threes/
It’s things that come in threes: e.g. I have just won the raffle, my cat had kittens and Uncle Bertie broke his ankle.

“In 2004, she noticed that the beach near her house in Alibaug, near Mumbai, was shrinking. She heard trucks at night that she suspected were carting the sand away, and decided to take action. She called the police, took her car and drove to where the road ended at the beach.
“Instead of rushing to the scene of the crime, the police warned [off] the illegal sand miners”, said Abdulali. As she waited in her car for the police to arrive, the men present at the mining site pulled her out and assaulted her. She survived the beatings, but needed to be hospitalised.
As she was beaten, one of the miners asked: “Do you know who I am?” He was the son of a local politician, also the owner of a construction company.

Sunak : the first PM installed due to the abuse of the power of the BBC.
It’s only now they are starting to turn on him ready for the election next year. They know full well the REAL British public do no think it’s right to have a globalist banker of Indian descent (and all the values which go with it) in charge of the country.
This alone is enough reason to dismantle the BBC.

Missed the top slot because I was watching the last ever ‘Rockford Files’ with a beer or two !. I have to say that the best time for anyone to live must have been the USA in the 70’s.
Just checked the BBC and to my astonishment saw this:
‘Russia hails unexpected G20 ‘milestone’ as Ukraine fumes’
Not just Ukraine : the BBC are ‘fuming’ too reading their report.
The bottom line is this : the war has been instigated by the USA since 2014. Hundreds of thousands of Ukranians have died in it’s name with the simple objective of bleeding Russia of the ‘flower of their youth’.
Despite what the BBC tell us, the rest of the world know exactly what is going on because the USA have f*cked them over as well. Hence this statement which goes against everything we have been told.
Now it’s becoming apparent that Ukraine cannot possibly win this war. And elections are coming up.
What will happen next is anybodies guess. But Zelensky has done the smart thing and moved all his corrupt money out of the country. He will ‘retire’ a very, very rich man thanks to the American tax payer.
He then pursued a career in comedy and created the production company Kvartal 95, which produced films, cartoons, and TV shows including the TV series Servant of the People, in which Zelenskyy played a fictional Ukrainian president.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volodymyr_Zelenskyy
Ah, but will Zelensky live long enough to enjoy his retirement.
“My 71 year old mother is a staunch Democrat who only watches mainstream news via cable tv. She is never informed about any of the consequences of failed policy. The TV scares her with reporting on crime, but never discusses the pros and cons of policy. To her, the Democrats are the party that takes care of everyone and has empathy. It boggles my mind how everything can be falling apart and there is no connection made between policy and results.”

“People who pride themselves on their ‘complexity’ and deride others for being “simplistic” should realize that the truth is often not very complicated. What gets complex is evading the truth.” – Thomas Sowell
A bit late but ,
The terrorist Khalife , making him the biggest manhunt this century, a traitor who wanted to help our enemies and kill maim and terrorise innocent people , was captured eventually.
Yet a police chief and the BBC referred to him as Daniel .
Yes , the naughty boy with the good sense of humour was caught out on his bicycle and led back to school sorry prison where the amused but slightly exacerbated masters will not let the prankster play truant or digress from the school uniform .
It’s nice to be informal and break the ice .
The bean tin and bits of wire terrorist.
We have many who are far, far worse living among us.
‘Look !!! – Elephant’
I wondered about all the panic over this run-away boy. Why would *they* be so upset?
Then I remembered the money they would be losing…
The pantomime trial with all the lawyers would cost north of £10M
Say £1M/year to keep him under the loving care of private companies like G4S or Serco
Then he would need to appeal his ‘uman rights every 10 minutes and that would be at £M a go for each circus appearance.
These individuals are a real threat. Not to the public but in the case they disappear to the criminals who run the so called justice system.
It’s a damn shame – it’s just a damn racket.
Sir Mo has now ended his running career by ending 4th in the Gt Northern Run. Is he now lined up as a presenter of a quiz show ?, clearly a shoo in as a pundit on athletics progs. No doubt his Agent is going through a choice of reality shows, panel games and chat shows.
One things for certain, the BBC ain’t gonna let him fade into obscurity – they may even throw Jay Blades under a bus to get him on Money for Nothing !!! (an apt title i would say ) yeah !
Turning Maui into Texas
“The melting point of aluminium is around 660°C, while wildfires burn at an average intensity of around 800°C”

If you make a campfire with wood and throw an empty coke can on it, it does melt
The bloke says “The only people that survived are the ones that drove around the roadblocks”
Do you believe that ?
AFAIK the fire zig zagged and left some buildings untouched
The withholding of information at Lahina and the apparent aggressiveness from some authorities hints that there was a major clusterf*ck on the part of some in the public sector and that a cover-up is being white-knuckled into place.
When small towns were overrun by wildfires in N California a few years ago it didn’t take long for an explanation to come out for the fatalities and iirc people were allowed back to their houses quite promptly.
The body language of the Maui officials in press events hints at big lies and a quite clear contempt for locals is unmistakable.

Fires have been going on in Canada, Tenerife, Hawaii and elsewhere for some while now. They are clearing those areas marked for rewilding as part of Agenda 2030. Only the ultra-elite will have access to them. Here in the UK and Europe they are using legislation to move people out of their homes in to tower blocks in the ‘smart’ gulags they are constructing. We are just at the start of the process but they want this done and dusted by 2030 although it looks as if they are accelerating the process. If people hadn’t complied with the fake plandemic this could never have happened. Now it’s too late.

Guest – another BBC free week for me – although I’m rewatching ‘the shock of the new ‘ on 4 which was from pre woke days …. Now it would be ‘ posh art with Cheryl ‘ ( or Mel) ( or someone dusky who does cooking shows ) …..
Anyway – the outgoing tickbox head of a declining retailer wants a ‘royal commission on retail ‘. Excellent idea – maybe she can get a tick box mate for the gig .
These are the findings – which will be published in 5 years time
1 councils are killing retail – using rates and traffic hostility
2 retailers enjoy ripping off punters too much
3 any pleasure in retail has been removed
4 decent people are treated badly – thieves get a free ride
5 go woke go broke
6 it will get a lot worse for conventional retail ( see www )
I’m a punter with little ‘retail ‘ experience – although I did work in a Halfords and supermarket as a Saturday job ( something I think doesn’t happen now ) …. 77 brigade intel update
I still have nightmares of sitting on the till and being presented with the first credit cards and trying to work the ‘swipe machine ‘ which made a triplicate imprint of the card … nightmares …
I think I heard on the propaganda news that Morocco is being choosy about from whom it is accepting ‘aid ‘( tax payers borrowed cash ) – the UK is ok because it’s an Islamic country …with king Mohammed the third now on the throne with an emir in charge of londonistan
The RAF will import a few more thousand Muslims as part of the ‘relief effort ‘ – don’t worry – it’s an ‘exception ‘ for ‘humanitarian purposes ‘.
Sad but entertaining video of the False Leader of The Free World rambling at a rare ‘press’ conference at the end of the G20 ( WEF) jolly in India ……
The Far Left Obama party has got the ‘press’ so controlled that no one challenges the rambling of a dementing old man as they know they’ll have the Obama Feds on them right away …
.. it looks like the meds are not working now
… I was recalling the ‘treatment ‘ Ronnie Reagan got as he occasionally mildly misspoke – see far left spitting image ….
… yet obama Biden – free ride …
Yep, it’s okay when it’s one of ours.
When I see Biden mumbling incoherently, stumbling over his words, and the floor, or making ridiculous faux pas, it makes me cringe with embarrassment for the poor old duffer, if he was Republican they would be tearing him to pieces for it.
I know it’s nothing really, but I can’t help noticing the man has either had a lot of plastic surgery on his hairline, or wears some kind of hairpiece. Look at videos/photos of him 20-30 years ago. Do you recall how the MSM went on and on and on about Trump’s hair, and how it “must be a wig” and he was “really bald” etc…. but, it’s different when it’s one of our own (cf. Huw Edwards).
If they’ve been heavily medicating Joe to get him through pressers etc.
How many vacations has he had again?
The drugs are going to stop working and Joe is going to have a terminal episode where he either keels over or simply stands there vacant with his jaw working away soundlessly in public.
Harsh – but I have zero sympathy.
Tomo – and on the other side of the isle is one Mitch McConnell – leader of the Republicans – standing in front of a microphone – at least x2 now – speaking and then freezing – as though the batteries ran out – the aides leading him away .
Nancy Pelosi – 84 – is selling re election – must need the cash ….
Personally I cannot believe Americans accept this situation – but then again – no revolution in another disfunctional jurisdiction either …. This one ….
Fed, and yet the GOP and Republicans when offered a middle-aged candidate refuse him instead of another ‘oldie’! Incredible.
Fedup2
aye… knew about the McConnell freezes…
My personal hope is that Pelosi has a god-almighty very public meltdown – my assessment is that if handled right she could be triggered. She’s bonkers and power crazed … finding the soft spot shouldn’t be too hard.
Ex-Foreign Office chief Lord McDonald told colleagues he voted to stay in the EU
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-66769661
The BBC think THAT is the headline.
Wrong BBC : THIS should be the headline:
‘Lord McDonald says there was a sense of “mourning” and staff in tears in the Foreign Office on the morning after the referendum result.’
Because it shows just how divorced from the people they are supposed to represent really are.
And it was exactly the same at the BBC. I remember listening to Aneka Rice and she reminded me of the tone they used when Dianna died.
I am 100% certain the vast majority (if not all) the BBC staff voted to remain. Nobody can doubt that. So how can any such group of people be expected to be politically neutral ?. It’s a complete farce. The BBC should be 50/50.
Now they are working to take us back in. The civil service feed the BBC with dirt on Brexiteers and the BBC run daily headlines until they are forced to resign. How many have they got rid of now ?. And how many remainers ?.
Shame on you OFCOM.
Exactly JohnC, well said, I logged in here to make the same comment.
If truly impartial, the BBC headline SHOULD be:
“Shocking admission by Ex-Foreign Office Chief about open opposition to Brexit at the FO following the referendum.”
In any non-Public Sector position, such overt sabotage of your employer would be a sackable offence.
A short tour around the nabobs at OFCOM show it to be full of apparatchiks fully aligned with the remainer mindset goons that have appointed them.
Lockstep, nobody breaking ranks.
Yup : a mix of ex-BBC, ex-civil servants and academics.
OFCOM are the root of the whole problem : not it’s solution.
On Toady. Not a scintilla of doubt as to where the BBC stands on the Spanish kiss ‘outrage’ as yet another bout of self-righteous indignation gets top billing.
The football man is resigning because he kissed a girl.
Just thinking of all the NHS managers who have not resigned after killing babies.
Or the police and government officials who have not resigned despite turning a blind eye while Muslim men systematically raped dozens of young white girls in our northern towns.
And then think about the wall to wall outrage coverage of these issues on the BBC. Think is all you can do. Because there wasn’t any.
The BBC’s dual standards are there for all to see. They have the morality of a cesspit.
I’m a little curious if he would have been forced to resign if he’d kissed a boy instead?
Luis missed an open goal there – he should’ve got the wig, falsies, lippy and high heels on – untouchable!
Sluff, he’s resigning because of the pressure he has received by the media. He still maintains he is innocent.
So he is another #metoo bloke found guilty by the kangaroo court of the Leftist MSM and has been basically ruined without any fair trial.
Mind you, it would be a brave court who would find him innocent now. The twitter mob would descend on them with the usual hate. No chance whatsoever of a fair trial. Same as the cops who killed Floyd.
John,

If there were a case of head in sand it’d be the BBC’s non reporting of stalled EV sales.
How about a package to support Wilko? Why are steelmakers and car manufacturers the recipient of such deals? A Wilko rescue would save jobs more evenly nationally, not just one valley in Wales or car plant in Dagenham or Oxford.
Wheels in wheels –
LONDON (Reuters) – Tata Steel’s UK pension scheme has separated from the company after regulators confirmed its pensions deal, the company said on Monday, paving the way for a merger of the European steel assets of India’s Tata Steel with those of Germany’s Thyssenkrupp.
“The (British Steel Pension Scheme) has now been separated from Tata Steel UK and a number of affiliated companies,” Tata Steel UK said in a statement.
The pension scheme has been a major stumbling block in a possible merger between the Indian steelmaker and Thyssenkrupp, because the German company was opposed to taking on 15 billion pounds ($19.82 billion) in UK pension liabilities.
The Pensions Regulator approved a deal last month to separate the Tata Steel UK pension scheme, but allowed 28 days for any objections.
https://www.reuters.com/article/britain-tata-steel-pensions-idINKCN1BM1F3
That’s a good point ND.
Not only the jobs, but Wilko’s sites are usually in the middle of desperate towns and cities, where voids are obvious on every High Street, so the councils, even rotten boroughs like Birmingham, at least get some rates paid!
The only Wilkos I know is, (was) in Maidstone, and it was situated in a pretty crappy early-eighties location, and fitted the bill perfectly! There were always customers from both sides of the tracks, and why not? They pay cash!
Retail on the street is really becoming a white elephant these days! Back in the early eighties, developers were scrambling everywhere to get the sheds up a.s.a.p. and kick out the old-fashioned ‘Are you being served’ hangouts, but that was then, and it ain’t any more!
(I hope I’m not preaching to the more knowledgeable here…)!
It is reported that this will “safeguard” 4000 jobs.
The only thing which will safeguard the jobs is if people buy the overpriced things. I could not afford one, and I don’t want one.
EV sales are sure to increase.
The Government eco-loonies in the forthcoming Labour government will pass a law whereby anyone buying a petrol or diesel car will get 10 years in jail.
But oh the joy when the ‘cheap to run’ electric car owners suddenly find themselves paying a fee per mile of road used.
You don’t think all those ULEZ cameras are just there for ULEZ, do you?
I’ve got to buy three new tyres for the car next month, Sluff!
If I had an electric car, would I get some sort of discount from this stupid government?
The MOT showed up two broken springs on the rear of the car, so can I get a discount from the government or the failed Kent County Council for all the potholes? And would the suspension be any cheaper if I had 4000 volts under the bonnet?
I do have an outside power-point though, (two actually) and a driveway for three cars, so maybe I’ll get some sort of discount from the Tunbridge Wells People’s Palace for some stupid reason – I’ll have to ask…
And I did the shopping this morning on my electric bike, so do I get a medal, like, maybe an OBE or perhaps a sort of Garter badge strap thing in blue nylon and a funny-looking badge on the end like ‘prince’ Andrew used to hang around his neck!
Nobody at the BBC was available for comment…
Ex-dancers describe body-shaming at top ballet schools
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66720433
Now the BBC feminists are demanding fat ballet dancers.
Complete with yet another totally dishonest, deliberately misleading picture:
‘Grace says she was told she needed to lose weight’
Of course the lie here is that the picture is probably AFTER she lost the weight.
Here’s what Grace had to say:
“The ballet world is a brutal place but telling people that you’re too fat… I don’t think that’s preparing you for anything.”
My God. Poor precious Grace.
Ahhh – I just discovered it’s by BBC Panorama. Possibly the most misleading ‘fact-checkers’ there are. They decide the result they want first then only show the evidence they can dig up to support it.
cue Lizzo and reinforced stages.
SUMO wrestlers add and lose weight all the time! BAN SUMO!
After posting about the Swiss tunnelling machine I realised that the Swiss were missing a trick.
Pumped storage works by pumping water uphill at night when all those German windmills are being sent crazy by poofs of wind. Then when Frau Schmitt wants to turn her kettle on at 8am the water runs back downhill and generates electricity with a turbine.
Why bother with water and all that trouble boring tunnels? Just use very heavy feminist ‘volunteers’ and send them up in a cable car overnight. Then when each kettle is turned on, one of the gravity challenged feminists can jump back on the cable car which runs in reverse to generate all the electricity you need. Dah Dah.

A ‘Hostile Act’ In The Heart Of Parliament – frets the Monday morning Mail
Intelligence Service Set To Haul In ‘China Spies’ – threatens the Telegraph as our BBC promotes two right-leaning titles to top spots in their online press line-up.

He was arrested in March alongside a second man, in his 30s… both have been released on bail (Telegraph) – not flight risks, then?
Mr AsI finds it somewhat amusing that Chinese spy services decided against their trademark female honey trap modus operandi when it came time to get up close to our Westminster MPs
China ‘honey trap’ plot could span thousands of operatives… It is the stuff of a James Bond blockbuster: a young, attractive woman lures a rising political star into a romantic web, all the while collecting critical information to trickle back to her handler or big bosses back home. (New York Post, December 2020)
China Girl
Sung by David Bowie 1983 lyrics by Iggy Pop

Just like some sacred cow
Visions of swastikas in my head…
And when I get excited
My little China girl, she says
“Oh, baby, just you shut your mouth”
While once in a blue moon the BBC goes gungho with the so-called Tory press it does still throw the Labour-supporting and perpetually campaigning (on something or other) Daily Mirror a bone: Newspaper headlines: ‘Hostile act in Parliament’ and dog ‘terror on streets’ (BBC)
Apparently this isn’t a biodegradeable mess on our streets the good people can scoop up into their little (environment destroying?) plastic bags, while the baddies among us just walk on by and couldn’t care less: New dog attack chaos… Terror on our streets Finally Home Secretary agrees with Mirror… we need action on danger breeds (Mirror)
Dangerous Dogs Act 1991… has been described as a piece of rushed legislation which was an overreaction to a transient public mood. The Act is sometimes cited as an unfavourable example of such legislation, and in January 2007, the act was included in public responses to a BBC Radio 4 poll of unpopular UK legislation (Thank you Wiki)
Could we interupt this news review here to hold a moment’s sympathy for our poor put-upon civil servants…
Lord McDonald [Former Foreign Office chief] says there was a sense of “mourning” and staff in tears in the Foreign Office on the morning after the referendum result. (BBC)
Fascinating, isn’t it, that this establishment anti-Brexit confession comes out and proud now: Ex-Foreign Office chief Lord McDonald told colleagues he voted to stay in the EU… he told ministers and colleagues he voted to stay in the EU in the wake of Brexit… the admission in a BBC documentary series, State of Chaos… Asked why he took this unprecedented step… says: “I felt they would assume that in any case. So I decided to embrace it.” (BBC)
After that moment’s silence, a brief pause for respectful reflection on behalf our ill-used and disappointed public sector functionaries and top mandarins… (reference to Chinese influence intended) As they come to terms with their Remainer natures… Cue the music…

Thunderstorms set to batter Britain as Met Office issues yellow weather warning… Then (sic) yellow weather warning has forecast potential flash flooding and disruption for drivers as well as the chance of lightning strikes, hail and strong winds. (Daily Express)

Ukraine offensive could have only 30 days left – US Army chief (BBC)

Maaate….! (TM Mayor Khan) At least the BBC can claim the scalp of that Spanish soccer boss the patriarchal sexist baldie: Luis Rubiales resigns as president of Spanish FA over Jenni Hermoso kiss
I’m vaguely reminded of that Fawlty Towers episode climax where Manuel helps Basil punish Bernard Cribbins, the supposed hotel inspector, with a big custard pie farewell, then impromptu plants an enthusiastic smacker on the top of the diminiative Spanish waiter’s bonce. Grounds for a sexual harassment claim? Or the stuff of slapstick comedy?
The left-leaning ‘i’ does its bit for socialism: Corbyn loyalist’s plea to Starmer… Labour leader urged to let his predecessor return from exile – what next… Biden administration to stop hounding Trump? Rishi Sunak to welcome back Boris? Gabon’s military junta to pardon Ali Bongo? That’s not how politics works these days.
My take on the promotion of Corbynite voices – as we noted in the FT of all places – is a 4D chess move by the Blairite faction and their media allies, so as to convince voters Starmer isn’t allied with the lefty nutters any more.
The ‘i’ does its bit for the family:
31 and undecided about kids… My generation has been left paralysed by the parenthood question (‘i’)
I nearly died during child birth… Tanya Gold on what women aren’t told the truth about labour (‘i’) – not what they’re not told about the Labour Party, obviously.
The bbc have been gleefully “exposing” the sham elections taking place in the Donbass. What is most worrying though, is the comments which they allow to be printed in reply – “Russians up to their old tricks, etc.” Do the majority of the uk populace still think that Russia are the bad guys and only biden can save the world?
I will say one thing which zalenski has achieved. He has completely eliminated corruption and rigging in the upcoming ukranian elections. The bbc won’t mention that he managed this amazing feat by simply cancelling the elections.
He may have merely postponed them until his next new house is built, of course. The one in Egypt looks nice. Our money well spent there.
Had the misfortune to catch a segment of BBC Breakfast earlier.
They were jabbing a 80 odd yr old woman in Oldham for about the 100th time for Covid. It was a Covid Booster BBC Propaganda piece.
How do you feel about getting this booster asked the BBC robot
The 80 odd yr old woman , clearly a BBC viewer / listener and unable to find any other outlet for news, told us in no uncertain terms
” I’m happy to have it….. its all the people who don’t have the jab that cause all the problems for others , isn’t it”
Well NO. If you don’t know that by now you are beyond help. The BBC fella who looked as weak as a can of piss just shrugged it off.
Proper BBC Covid jab advert piece. Sickening.

The numbers of older folk who are masked up in supermarkets is creeping up – I find them quite curious and have been doing my own “judging a book by its cover” thing – a glance at their shopping baskets, their car choices and their attire has me thinking that when they’re in the house / car they have the radio or TV turned on all the time.
Not seen a solitary masked driver yet this year – still time.
When questioning a friend who had declared that they were going for their (5th?) booster this winter – ‘Ach, I’ve had them all so far, so might as well. They wouldn’t offer you something you didn’t need’
This is a 50+ university educated person in NHS management strata, who has worked there all their life.

Seen quite a few on YouTube, they were on bikes snatching phones from unsuspecting pedestrians.

23RD FEBRUARY 1982: THE DAY GREENLAND LEFT THE EUROPEAN UNION

Birmingham City Council went bankrupt, lefties shout “Tory Cuts”

Jameel Malik, the owner of taxi firm Green Destinations Ltd,
Green Destinations Ltd has charged approximately £17million to run more than 450 home-to-school transport (H2ST) routes a year.
But if their pricing mirrored that of nationally recognised competitors such as HATS, analysis suggests this cost could be closer to £6million – an £11million difference
Obviously a taxi driver has to be there twice
: to and from school,
So multiple journeys: to the kid’s home, to the school, to next job
then to the school, to the kids home, to his next job
and maybe have a wheelchair vehicle
but a £65/mile charge does seem huge
Just tried that £65 a mile line out on a colleague – what’s the provenance of the claim?
The spluttering was fun
Cheaper to hire an articulated lorry .

Vote Labour – vote for a free cervix on the NHS.
MM,
“Sir Keir is married to Lady Victoria Starmer, with whom he has a teenage son, Toby, and a daughter whose name has never been made public, such is the premium the Starmers place on their privacy, very understandably.
Lady Starmer was formerly Victoria Alexander, the daughter of a Polish-Jewish father and a mother who converted to that faith. She was raised in Gospel Oak, north London.”
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/lady-victoria-starmer-keir-wife-labour-b2177047.html
How can he go home and look the Lady Starmer in the eyes and ditto the unnamed daughter after having made such a crass statement. I wonder what excuse he gave Victoria although she is an ex solicitor and well exposed to lying people.
She is not Lady Victoria Starmer, just Lady Starmer.
Banania,
I’m so grateful for your additional information correcting my quote from the Independent. If people like you didn’t exist, we would be tripping over everything in life whilst looking over our shoulders. Thank you. Incidentally, correcting minor information and being pedantic, is now considered a mental health issue for which the NHS offers treatment if it is a problem.
By the way, I trust you have written to the Independent and corrected them?
TOADY Watch #1 – is that not a bit unpatriotic and hypocritical, BBC?
Apparently someone has commented (complained?) about the large number of EU flags being waved on the ‘last night of the Proms’, a series of concerts in organised in conjunction with the BBC and broadcast on BBC Radio Three, as well as some concerts being televised on the BBC especially the last night. The BBC have said it is alright for a pro-Remain Group to hand out the EU flags.
Now, I seem to recall, BBC, that some years ago you sought to change the Last Night of the Proms to exclude the singing of ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ & ‘Rule Britannia’ and the traditional waving of Union flags as being too ‘jingoistic’. How is allowing EU flags to be given out and waved ‘not jingoistic’ and the singing of Land of Hope and Glory & Rule Britannia and waving the Union flag too ‘jingoistic’?

OT: Just noticed this which is an addendum at the bottom of many Grauniad articles. This is a short sentence, from a piece in which they are asking for praise and contributions; it says ‘ Unlike many others, the Guardian has no shareholders and no billionaire owner.’.
It is owned by an billion pound offshore trust fund. Economical with the truth, probably penned by Carole Codswallop.
Interesting to note the toned-down approach to 9/11 this year. Even the doddering old fool is in Alaska, and has no plans for any commemoration.
IS this because many people are now finally switching on that it was an inside job to give the pretext for war?
Do not offend anyone – it was just an event.

The amazing thing is there seems to be a collective acceptance of this . The press have just abandoned any form of accountability with Obama / Biden . Their employers are obviously aware that Obama is about to get his 4th term so will not even remotely challenge what is going on .
We can assume that when red labour takes over here – they’ll get the same sort of treatment – with all being blamed on the now extinct ‘conservative ‘ party with the remnants being a series of warring right wing parties ranging from Reform the the brexit party – amongst others ….
I saw an interview with the White House doctor who said that when Trump was President, they were clamouring for him non-stop for mental tests on Trump to report.
He said that when Biden was elected, the requests instantly stopped.
I remember that because I was absolutely shocked at what it told me about the media. There is no check-and-balance any more. They are now partisan activist groups. That’s why they are getting away scot free with this political persecution of Trump.

The bbc are going to start ramping up their covid scare-fest soon (If not already). My idea is for the nhs to send out a questionnaire to a random few to see what the likely takeup for this round is likely to be. I imagine, like the usa, they will have ordered enough for everyone in the country to have a jab. What’s the likely takeup going to be? 40%? 50%? Who’s going to fall for this scam this time around? Do a survey, order quantities based on the results. Save the nhs a fortune.
Covid has demonstrated the power of the ‘nudge’
Policies on everything from public health to climate change would benefit from using behavioural science
https://www.ft.com/content/199cb349-a65a-4892-a915-1b00c4d484e4
Behavioural scientists are best known for their “nudges”, whether it is automatically enrolling people in pensions or sending tax reminder letters informing us that most people pay their taxes on time. Ever since the creation of the UK government’s Behavioural Insights Team (BIT), the so-called nudge unit, in 2010, this narrow characterisation has obscured the breadth and depth of what real world behavioural science can deliver. But across the world, the experience of tackling Covid has shown what, properly applied, behavioural insights can do.
Alongside the vaccine rollout, we have largely controlled the virus with restrictions on behaviour, though not always the right ones.
restrictions on behaviour, though not always the right ones.
restrictions on behaviour, though not always the right ones.
not always the right ones.

The Plandemic has demonstrated the power of Brainwashing. Policies on everything from public health to climate change benefit from using behavioural science. Behavioural scientists are best known for their “Brainwashing”, whether it is to get Tory voters to support socialist policies or to get useless eaters to destroy their own health with an mRNA jab.
Ever since the creation of the UK government’s Brainwashing Indoctrination Team (BIT), the government has used it to gaslight the public on many issues. Brainwashing helps to reduce voters ability to think critically or independently of the government, to allow the introduction of new loony left-wing thoughts and ideas into their minds, as well as to change their attitudes towards Russia, the EU and sexual perverts. Manipulating the beliefs and sense of self of an individual. Brainwashing (also known as mind control) can use persuasion and school education to make children pressure adults to support government policies on Net Zero and other issues.
The government’s Brainwashing Indoctrination Team (BIT) was set up by Pro-EU Tories to replace the “Will of the People” with the “Will of the EU” and since the new King, the “Will of the World Demonic Forum”

A DEGREE OF INFLUENCE: The funding of strategically important subjects in UK universities
http://www.christopherdavidson.net/files/Foreign_funding.pdf#page=21
“What is noticeable from the research undertaken in this report is the disparity
in the levels of funding from the countries studied. There are huge amounts
of cash currently being donated by Arab and Islamic sources (University of Cambridge / £1.2m / UAE / Appointment of a full-time lecturer specialising in Islam / 1996), and this has undoubtedly
led to a degree of influence in the oversight of UK universities. China,
however, while donating only a relatively small amount of cash, has managed
to gain a disproportionate amount of influence in UK higher education via its
Confucius Institutes.
What is also clear is that, in terms of money donated, the
likes of Japan and Russia do not appear to have the desire to influence higher
education in the same way as China or certain countries in the Muslim world.”
