This thread covers the 15th of September – which I’m sure the BBC would like British People to Forget ,,, and if you don’t know what 15th September commemorates – the wokes have succeeded … lest we forget .

This cannot be true- can it? A Brummie acquaintance of mine with friends and family in that fine city has just told me that parts of Birmingham are in lockdown with our dinghy invaders being used to stop people moving about. Nothing about it on the BBC of course. Is he mad? Am I mad for listening to him? It sounds very far fetched to me but I don’t know what’s happening to this country any more.
Oh well … we all have to make room.
Plans to relocate the grave of a dog which was a mascot to the Dambusters have been refused by councillors.
The 617 Squadron’s mascot, a black Labrador, belonged to commanding officer Guy Gibson and died on the day of the raid on German dams in 1943.
The RAF applied for planning permission to move the grave from RAF Scampton as the site is to be used to house asylum seekers from August.
But councillors rejected the proposal at a meeting on Wednesday evening.
About 100 people attended a West Lindsey District Council extraordinary planning meeting at Lincolnshire Showground to discuss the application.

Not sure about the context you refer to. However, I referred to this possibility a month or two ago when I realised that the Government has this source of very impartial Malitia men (or as Farage describes: ‘young, fit, military age men’) on hand to step in to quell any rebellion.
3. Nationalities and demographics of arrivals
Overall, males represented 87% of small boat arrivals in January to September 2022. This proportion is similar to previous years.

Helicopter heat signal found escaped killer, police say
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-us-canada-66800082
What on Earth is going on with the BBC ?.
Now they are running a ‘live update’ on a story that police in the USA have caught someone who escaped !!!. We even get:
‘He was finally ‘subdued’ after being bitten by a dog – they did not say where he was bitten.’
‘The escapee liked to travel through creek beds, he liked other paths of least resistance such wood lines, power lines and gas lines, Bivens says.’
“That’s fairly normal, no-one wants to have to force their way through heavy underbrush.’
I am genuinely stunned. Why are the BBC using their funding to cover stories like this as if they are major world events which would be insignificant in THIS country, never mind over in the vastness of the USA.
Meanwhile someone else was stabbed and murdered in Croydon, the police are appealing for witnesses and the BBC haven’t even reported it. We know why of course.
https://news.met.police.uk/news/detectives-urge-witnesses-to-come-forward-as-murder-investigation-launched-in-croydon-472159
What complete cretin is in charge for what we see on the front page of the taxpayer funded BBC ?. He/She/It should be immediately sacked.
‘He was finally ‘subdued’ after being bitten by a dog – they did not say where he was bitten.’
Biden?
There was a very short editorial yesterday expressing the concern about the mental health of the false president of what used to be the USA – it was in the Londonistan Evening ULEZ Standard – of all places ….
What do you reckon that they’re putting out all these bizarre failings of Biden now, so that there might just be a way in the US constitution to get him to lie down somewhere, get Kamilla in the WH, but say they need a cabal of advisors to ‘continue’?
Cue Bamalam and even a Clinton or two – possible a Kennedy as well to appease the red-necks!
There must be some way these ‘democrats’ can ensure that Donald Trump doesn’t just waltz in next year, so if anyone has a superior knwledge of the US ‘constitution’, perhaps they could let us know how and when this would happen!
I smell a whole coven of rats here…
The silence of the BBC (and by arse-cheek extension, I presume The Guardian) for anything negative about Bidens mental health is the most extreme of politically-biased double standards and I really hope their silence comes back to bite them. The good thing about it now is that it is so clear to everyone, their refusal to report it really stands out.
Look what they wrote about Trump – and ALL of it is just rumour:
Trump’s mental health and why people are discussing it
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-42580762
‘It is a question that has dogged Donald Trump – fairly or otherwise – since he was elected president: is he mentally fit for office?’
‘The question has been raised again by the release of a new book by New York journalist Michael Wolff, which chronicles the first year of the Trump White House.’
‘But the president’s manner and speaking style have led to armchair diagnoses of a host of ailments, from Alzheimer’s to narcissistic personality disorder – a controversial practice that has divided the medical profession.’
Whereas with Biden there is lots of evidence of his decline and all they do is edit it out.
I suspect his mental state will be used by Obama as a way to take him out of the running next year so a more reliable puppet can be installed.
It seems like that John!
There’s stuff about him getting times and facts wrong about September 11th, and all sorts of Bamalam-style woffle coming out from their sort of ‘press’ secretary!
Naturally, all this is completely ignored by the Beebonics, who choose, obviously using CNN’s stuff, to get Romney’s views, which count for very little these days anyway!
‘– they did not say where he was bitten.’ Was it near the bollards?

Once ‘reporting’ had a filter, it’s when they need to prioritise slavish support or dumb blanking the rot sets in.
A lot of talking. A lot of valid points yet neither of them went anywhere near the elephant in the room.
That it is the black people who are causing all this trouble.
THIS is precisely what taking the knee to BLM and appeasing them all along the way leads to. They think they are untouchable and can do what they like.
How long will it be before I see anything in our media making that link ?.
Show the protestors the real video on a large screen. Give them 10 minutes to go home. Then go in with the tear gas.
A blue labour MP called Toby Elwood – dead posh – has resigned as chair of the commons defence committee after a video where he supported the taliban in afgee – Toby will – no doubt head to the lords when he is thrown out in a years ‘ time – but maybe he can get a job with the Chinese or Russians or other enemies …
As I watched PMQ’s today I pondered how President Biden would cope with similar questioning if the USA had a similar weekly event.
That coloured girl would tell everyone the session is over – they’d lead him out of the chamber on a lead – play some jazz music and ban all comment about his wetting himself again …. Maybe they’ll kill him soon … better to have an assassination than dying in his sleep – an excuse to lock up more dissenters for 22 years ,….
I accidentally had BBC news on again. The news item that pricked my ears up was about proof of identity being required to vote in next year’s election. A bad thing the BBC might as well have said, it will disadvantage the disabled, the elderly and ethnic minorities. Ethnic minorities? Why on earth would it cause problems for ethnic minorities?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-66788130
Sorry about replying to my own post. I got thinking about the people “disadvantaged” by being required to produce ID to vote.
The elderly: If unable to understand they need ID or suffering with dementia they surely can’t meaningfully vote.
Anyone else: As above
Ethnic minorities: ?
I would hazard a guess that many ethnics are not who they say they are anyway given the amount of fraudulent activities they indulge in. There are as many Mohammed Ali’s as John Smiths.
Hello Flotsam, sorry to hear that (that you had the bbc “news” on)

Breaking news from the Hill, another conspiracy theory made fact, seems like there are now far more conspiracy theories proven fact than remain unproven or false.
Nope. There is no virus. If the mainstream is telling you this, you know it isn’t true. They need to make you believe in Germ theory so you will be primed for the next one, which is coming soon. GoF is a myth. If they could produce killer pathogens don’t you think we would have seen them in action by now? And no, no one died from SARS-CoV-2, the biggest psyop in human history.

Does the BBC have TNI fact checker fact checkers?
Listening today to Talk Radio (on Wednesday morning Mile Grayham show) about the UK CDU unit which was set up during COVID to counter any such ‘disinformation’ (such as anti-vaxers) is still (suprisingly) with us still today!
As it was never closed down by our own government! Its still there, and by the BBC own admission (below) the BBC is still active with its own ‘disinformation’ unit.
Hence:
The BBC sent out a ‘press-release’ (puff piece).
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/08/06/marianna-spring-bbc-disinformation-correspondent/
The BBC has revealed that Marianna Spring applied to head up the BBC own’ disinformation’ unit which was parody to the official COVID Medical ‘advisors’ task force….
Officially all left wing medical establishment figures with links, not all medically qualified ‘influencers’ (Sociology, Psychology and immunology*) applied for big bucks. Very well paid advisors did earn a fortune (even if they were Marxists), as some claimed to be. They have to prove something that may or may not exist.
*sponsored by big Pharma as ‘ready’ for any pandemic (US big pharma) See Fauci, Sorus, Gates and deniability that ‘research’ for ‘gain of function’ outlawed in UK and US but paid for ‘research; in WuHan labs in China. Then on ‘outbreak’, was blamed on a local meat market selling ‘bat meat’. Fauci was behind the ‘outbreak’ delivered drip-by-drip to the media as a ‘global’ emergency and blamed all on China. Was it or was it not? We shall never know, but those affected in China have ‘recovered’, so China has said. Odd that. No US or UK vaccines was delivered to China..!
Talk Radio. Its own presenter Julie Hartley Brewer was also ‘black listed’ by the UK’s CDU unit as as a threat to the COVID consensus. Along with David Davis.
Not that the BBC was asking any questions. Nobody was allowed to ask any questions. The FULL facts (as the BBC like to claim – were hidden from us), from all of us. Did Boris know it was all *bollocks*?, but he had no choice to follow the US leads… hard to believe how Neil Fergusson was employed when all his previous incorrect predictions on record were false. Chief predictor of doom. Proven idiot. But usefull idiot. Employed to prove the impossible. Create a national ‘emergency’ brief.
Neil Fergusson. The usefull idiot.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. ranks as one of the top figures in America’s anti-vaxxing movement. He was also media ‘blanked’ by the BBC.
https://www.unz.com/runz/covid-deaths-and-vaxxing-deaths/
Back then, we were all left in the dark. Only social media could find out what was happening elsewhere. And its was co-ordinated. Even when the WHO World Health Organisation claimed it was NOT the fault of China at all. The US did not want to admit they had paid for the research.
David Davis pointed out that he was censored on you-tube for questioning the ‘origins’ of COVID. He has since been proved right. He claims that Neil Ferguson (the Government chief medical advisor) was never ‘right’ about anything, and has a history of ‘pandemic’ models that never worked – and since proved false (again).
David Davis appeared on GB News on the Counter Disinformation unit
https://www.daviddavismp.com/david-davis-mp-speaks-to-gb-news-about-the-counter-disinformation-unit-and-its-work/
David Davis opposed to use of ID cards to prove ‘vaccination’ (as this was an EU requirement) and it did not prove that the vaccinations worked. He still questions the requirement for children to be vaccinated when they were clearly unaffected. We now learn that the unnecessary Vaccinations ’caused’ complications (death) in healthy in children.

Marianna Spring had revealed in Daily Telegraph (below) last week about her involvement in the BBC ‘disinformation unit’ and the set up of BBC ‘Verify’ unit’ was extended. She claims she was involved in ‘take downs’ of misinformation that could have been ‘dangerous’ thinking by the public on COVID.
She was caught as having ‘lied on her CV’ to the BBC
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/09/08/marianna-spring-bbc-journalist-disinformation-lied-on-cv/
Frankly it makes no difference at the BBC, They all lie to be there.
But the damage has already been done.
From former articles in Times, Mail and Telegraph is was clear that the BBC has corprate style ‘close links’ to Google, Twitter and Facebook, she (Marianna Spring) could ‘take down’ anyone once she was so asked. She claims she was on first name terms with ‘Nick Clegg’ (she stated) at Facebook, as she headed the new BBC key ‘misinformation unit’ . She is a skilled player of expectations. She does not ask questions.
Elon Musk has now ‘dismantled’ Twitter, and sacked, those who dominated the Left media empire of socialists arbitrarily on anyone who disagreed with the ‘consensus’ of the unqualified. The BBC had a big corporate accounts on Twitter. The BNNC encouraged all it ‘journo’ staff to ‘engage’ on Twitter as they could then distance itself from any claims or liability claims of being ‘false’. Again, such vapid ‘news and opinion’ would normally get you sacked, but at the BBC you get actively promoted. Its Russia in miniature.
Clap for the NHS!
At the time during COVID I had my suspicions when we were all asked to clap for the NHS, when it was clear to me that that LBC told us ‘on air’ that they had to comply with ’emergency measures’ a week earlier (and this included all radio/TV/Press) restrictions on what could be discussed. This meant that ‘Scientists and Doctors opposed to the COVID vaccinations, were soon banned on-air. This site could easily have been closed down, if they thought it was important enough.
So that made ‘social media’ the next target. Google ‘down-graded’ web searches that placed COVID ‘official’ links – at top of all UK searches. The BBC claims Facebook was more than willing, (thanks to Nick Clegg), and we already know that Twitter was censoring any opposing views (on its own Twitter staff who claim censorship was totally normal and legal in the US).
And we now know know the CIA were employed to cover up any lab leak.
https://www.bignewsnetwork.com/news/273964523/cia-tried-to-cover-up-findings-that-covid-lab-leak-was-likely-reveals-whistleblower
After all ‘gain of function’ drug testing is still illegal as its s biological weapon, that could be used by a rogue state. Remember IRAQ claim by Tony Blair of a bio-weapon and the death of Dr Kelly when he knew the truth. Yet now the US was paying a lab in China to make one. Blair and Bush were in partnership to ‘save the world’ back then. We know there was no bio-weapon, it was a fabrication. FAUCI was making a bio-weapon in China privately… (make your own mind up**)

Here in the UK we grow mushrooms. In the dark.
David Davis, I have a lot of time for. He is an MP that speaks out on injustice of our grossed out parliamentary systems that play to the gallery whilst ignoring the facts and on the top of the pile of misinformation are the usual suspects behind the ‘sanitised’ news the BBC claims is its own brand of popular ‘news and opinion’.
We know that to be false. However the TV license is use to ‘prove’ popularity as outside the UK they do not know that people go to prison for refusing to pay for it.
Even if only watch Strictly Come dancing. Nobody in the world pays a TV license. but here in the UK, we do. And the BBC claim its voluntary.
Davis is often invited on all the major broadcasters as the voice of reason, and gets attacked on the BBC when he appears. As we know the BBC ‘orchestrates’ protest via is’ fringe groups in t same way the PROMS was yesterday packed out with EU flags on the last day of the proms. The BBC deny involvement, and yet they do not deny that they were involved in promoting the ‘flag display’ that would feature on BBC TV as ‘news and opinion’.
The BBC I have on record was bing investigated by OFCOM for fabrication ‘popular news content to rank itself ‘up there’ on google news feeds. It still claims it is the voice of the nation and we are all happy to pay for the distinctive TV and radio programmes it provides by way of a license. It claims the hated TV license is cheap and is good value for money (comparing itself to Netflix) but nowhere else. The BBC had been accused of impartiality as well as abusing its global power and influence. That’s a fact. Not that we entirely trust the BBC to distinguish truth from fiction.***

I have to resort to the Guardian to reveal the extent of the BBC’s global reach..
https://www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2022/apr/14/netflix-jimmy-savile-a-british-horror-story-documentary
The BBC has decided to remake its own version (omitting a few more details) and correcting the evidence to give itself the all clear. Its BBC ‘entrainment’, now.
https://www.radiotimes.com/tv/drama/steve-coogan-jimmy-savile-bbc-correct-newsupdate/
The BBC is in such a state, its only claim to fame is propaganda and cover up.
Defund the BBC, will be strongly resisted by Labour when next in office.
And don’t be suprised if another COVID is found. Next time they won’t make the same mistake as vaccine choice. No ID, no job. No license No TV. No Car. No (NHS) health expectation either.
We know how keen Labour were on lockdowns. We cannot afford another.
Marianna Spring is a prolific tweeter yet hasn’t tweeted since 10am on the 5th of Sept
.. I suspect she been deleting tweets as well
Had to cancel herself.
I think some one who describes themselves on a job application as a “brilliant journalist” deserves all the stick she gets. Such arrogance from someone with so little experience.
Spring has come across as a bit of a precious item since she first appeared – the seeming absence of humility in any form surely a warning sign to observers?
Want a laugh?
“We are thrilled to announce that Full Fact’s new CEO is Chris Morris. Chris was previously with the BBC, where he was the face and voice of Reality Check, the fact checking service run by the broadcaster.”
VP of AmeriCheck Mike Wendling?
There is a rather concerning phenomena that happens with people enthusiastically tweeting about receiving the juice. Some time later their twitter feed just stops.
In one or two cases I know about this is because the individual has ‘died suddenly’.
Unfortunately no one will research this to see if it is a thing and also our Marianne will keep on going because authorities will keep on the coverup as long as people like her are not adversely affected.
It’s Britain’s very own George Floyd moment!
It looks like the race wars have began?
I expect the Left will pass on this because there is absolutely clear video evidence SHE is the criminal here. But if it was in any way ambiguous (like Floyd), they would be all over it.
Having said that, there is also a good chance they will simply ignore what she did and flood the news with the bits which suit them. The BBC did this already by not showing the video – and now we know why.
Let’s face it – if plod hadn’t announced a policy over the threshold for taking any action regarding shoplifting the rapid increase in brazen theft might not have grown to the epidemic level .
Woke plod is a danger to the decent public – 77 brigade ‘ site monitor to submit comment to the file . I move further up the list …?
I’m sure we are all on some low-level ‘possible troublemaker’ lists along with thousands of other people on the right.
Their chief concern is stopping any social unrest. They can’t do anything about the antagonisers (BAME forcing their culture on us and the Globalist Left forcing their ideology on us) – so they focus on stopping any reaction to it by suppressing the Right. Hence the huge over-reaction to the likes of Tommy Robinson.
I wonder just to what extent the powers are they have against people like us who did nothing wrong, but they consider ‘enemies of the Leftist state’.

bbc “reporting” – how can this be happening to these sweet and innocent people
Maybe just let them all go and no deterrent!
I have personally seen three incidents where officials have clearly stepped over the bounds of reasonable behaviour – Home Office officials tried to deport my aunt, and at different times, two other people known to me on the flimsiest, most arbitrary grounds imaginable. All the cases were resolved in favour of the individuals but only after several months of challenging what I saw as officious bullying. The over-officiousness of individual officials in all three cases was off the scale – but resolved when matters were escalated to more senior, experienced staff.
The Home Office has been a mess for decades – we have to weed out the wrong ‘uns and that is clearly a task that is beyond our present public sector – there will always be some level of dysfunction – hiding it and covering up is not an acceptable fix.
Activist goons like Emma Haddad shouldn’t be in there in the first place….
The Home Office needs to be wound up. What does it do that is any good?
Ha – I just posted the same andy 🙂
It’s not the story that’s so wrong here : it’s the outrageous mis-representation the BBC make of what a decent person he was. But once I saw ‘panorama’ at the end, all became clear. They are not interested in truth whatsoever. They are always just trying to confirm the conclusion they already decided.
Hello JohnC
Hope all is well
Option 1:
Frank Ospina begged to be sent home – but died in UK detention
Option 2:

The second is more factual and objective than the first – but which version do you think the BBC chose to put on the front page ?.
Perhaps we should send all prisoners home if they ask – just in case they too are mentally unstable.
It will come as no surprise that this is pushing another ‘panorama’ agenda topic.

Perpetually campaigning (while there’s still a Tory government) Labour-supporting red top the Daily Mirror (no doubt reflecting Labour party-sponsored research findings that the public are fretting a lot about crime) holds fast to its ‘Year of the shoplifter‘ bold promise of yesterday to publish ‘pix & CCTV‘ of our lawless wild west high streets – and true to Mr AsI’s sure bet prediction of yesterday – despite events elsewhere – it’s obviously male whitee in the frame: After threatening hard-working staff thief walks out with 3 cases of stolen lager – three cases, no less, and in broad daylight – no doubt off to watch men playing football and get himself even more pixelated than he appears in the Mirror.

Lying Boris Johnson was the tool that scupperedd potential peace talks: The War Could Have Ended Months Ago — But the West Didn’t Want It To… When we think of the scale of suffering the war in Ukraine has been causing worldwide, it is hard to believe that Kyiv all but finalised a peace agreement with Moscow as early as April… ‘According to Ukrainska Pravda sources close to Zelenskyy, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom Boris Johnson, who appeared in the capital almost without warning, brought two simple messages. The first is that Putin is a war criminal, he should be pressured, not negotiated with… Johnson’s position was that the collective West… now felt that Putin was not really as powerful as they had previously imagined, and that here was a chance to “press him.” (Hungarian Conservative)
Warmongering Johnson pops up again this morning in the gung ho for Ukraine Daily Express: Boris: Britain must ‘ramp up’ military aid to Ukraine – likewise in the left-leaning otherwise peace-loving ‘i’ newspaper: Johnson tells Sunak and Biden: You’re feeble on Ukraine – Mr AsI feels constrained to make one of his edits: Sunak and Biden: You’re feeble

The Times has at last shifted from their previous editorial position of the Labour-curious paper to learning to love Starmer
Starmer vows to smash people-smuggling gangs… Traffickers would be treated like terrorists… in an interview with the Times… (yet again) – so basically the cross-Channel people smuggling business would be nationalised under Labour: …accepting quotas of migrants from the EU, would be for future negotiation with Brussels – and obviously as future PM Starmer manoeuvres to get us back into the EU there’s going to be some hard pills served up by Brussels for us to swallow.
Dear reader, I didn’t marry him – perish the thought

It also looks like it is still going!
What is interesting is that where I have got to, amid a bunch of competing back storylines, it is pretty clear the CIA is up to its neck in a a lot of nefarious off books stuff, with the FBI a fair bit behind. Plus senators, etc.
One key actor does not get a mention at all best I can see, and that is David Strathairn, Director of the CIA black ops unit, working with a shadowy bunch not unlike the WEF and Soros. Who also appear not to get a mention.

Dickie – anyone who saw the Tom thing as anything other than the exploitation of human charity needs a head clean .
Let’s face it – the charity industry – with a few exceptions – is there to exploit people using sentiment – the bbc take this to the extreme with its ‘ branded ‘ days – summed up by the relegation that ‘celebrities ‘ like terry wogan got paid £55000 to run a charity gig each year asking poorer people for their cash ….
I’m not saying – don’t give to charity – I’m just saying be discerning ….
£30 million raised to buy biscuits for nurses. Do they really need more biscuits?
“The media hysteria, the government reaction, was not only a disastrous policy but a con. Instead of the media doing their job and examining some of the more outlandish claims made by the government, they not only went along with it, but they were enthusiastic government mouthpieces. A key plank of the Covid fear propaganda campaign was the ludicrous beatification of Captain Tom Moore, may he rest in peace, please give me strength.
I must admit that even I was too scared to call out the bullsh*t that Captain Tom, aged 99, ‘walks’ in his garden a lot. The only one with balls enough to do that was James Delingpole, published by equally ballsy Kathy.
James explained at the time (February 2021): ‘The reason for the cult of Captain Tom is that we are being played by a very cynical and devious political and media Establishment. Captain Tom has become a government propaganda tool. He is our equivalent of Alexey Stakhanov, the Russian miner celebrated as a Hero of the Soviet Union because he dug out such stupendous quantities of coal.’”

5 In Gibeon the LORD appeared to Solomon in a dream by night: and God said, Ask what I shall give thee. 6 And Solomon said, Thou hast shewed unto thy servant David my father great mercy, according as he walked before thee in truth, and in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart with thee; and thou hast kept for him this great kindness, that thou hast given him a son to sit on his throne, as it is this day. 7 And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in. 8 And thy servant is in the midst of thy people which thou hast chosen, a great people, that cannot be numbered nor counted for multitude. 9 Give therefore thy servant an understanding heart to judge thy people, that I may discern between good and bad: for who is able to judge this thy so great a people? 10 And the speech pleased the Lord, that Solomon had asked this thing.

TOADY Watch #1 – the Sucker who won the race to lead Labour may just have lost Labour the next Election
I awake to news that the leader of losing Labour is off to Brussels for a cosy chat with Ussella that I think will end in tears of joy for Ange as she gets a tilt at the top job after the next General Election. I wonder what Tony Blair thinks of this bit of Starmer strategy?
The ‘rejoin by stealth ‘ strategy is going well – the science thing last week – no doubt associate membership of europol next – – would it make any difference to the channel invasion if we were full members ? Uk would remain the sewer ..
Europol?

Neither interpol or europol are up to much – glorified post offices forwarding stuff from one law outfit to another …
The EU is more than happy dumping the third world on `English beaches – without severe prevention it will never stop and only get worse .

I’ve taken some time out to explore the implications for me, of the, “Energy Security” Bill. I’ll try to communicate my findings as I see it. Others may disagree.
There’s not a central document that appears, a draft of the whole document. That’s strange so I’m working off the ‘Research Briefings’ as a guide to what’s coming.
First up. A name change from ‘Energy Security’ to simply “Energy”. That’s the first sign of what’s to come, although they could have laughingly called it the Energy Insecurity Bill. That’s more accurate.
For the domestic energy user, so far as I’ve got, the important factor is, ‘Smart Meters’.
Click to access CBP-9787.pdf
I direct anyone interested to, Page 27 to start with, ‘Energy Smart Appliances’ then, in conjunction with P 27, P29/30. Here you’ll find that the Government are anticipating failure to supply regularly i.e. ‘securely’ the ‘New’ green energy forms. The secret weapon being, the Smart Meter. More on this another time. Using your Smart Meter the Government agency appointed will have the power to turn down or switch off completely, your energy supply. Emolliently described as Energy “flexibility” meaning off when there is no wind and no Sun. Get used to “Flexibility” in the energy context. Throw the light switch on arrival home one dark cold night – Nothing. That’s ‘Flexibility’ to come. Bit like the other word, Green Evangelists use, that of, “Sustainability”.
For the many who don’t have a Smart Meter there will be a criminal law sanction to force occupiers to have one. More of that when I get into it. Numbers involved to 2022:
Click to access Q4_2022_Smart_Meters_Statistics_Report.pdf
I haven’t got to the criminal penalties yet and will not proceed to report here if there’s no interest.
So far though, its beginning to look as if the horror stories are probably true.
I think the first stage will be tariffs according to time of day – or cheaper at the weekends and overnight . But let’s face it – energy is not going to get any cheaper ….
… it will be a great advantage to those who refuse or won’t pay …
The real pain at the moment is Thames water sending demand after demand to have a water meter …
G, do ‘the authorities’ switch off your supply via the smart meter?
Or do they switch of your supply via the sender units?
If the former, what is there to stop you taking the batteries out of the display unit?
Up2
I’ve not come across anything that indicates (or not) the process of switching off yet but, having had a Smart Meter fitted some years ago, it meant a change of the actual meters elect/gas. My supplier for both has the ability to read my consumption the day before I do so, it’s a good check for me every month. That, as I see it, is the only benefit.
However, see this info:
“However, it is technically true. Smart meters allow energy suppliers to disconnect you or change the meter to a prepayment one remotely. Traditional meters mean suppliers usually have to apply to the courts for a permit to enter someone’s home to disconnect them or change them to a prepayment meter.”

“Rogue Russian pilot tried to shoot down RAF aircraft in 2022”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-66798508
“By Jonathan Beale
Defence correspondent
A Russian pilot tried to shoot down an RAF surveillance plane after believing he had permission to fire, the BBC has learned.”
That qualifies the pilot as rogue?
.. and no mention what the spy plane was doing there. Which of course was aiding the Ukranians.
I’m surprised the Russians haven’t shot one down already. Now we are sending them out with fighter escorts.
Perfect opportunity the trigger an escalation by either side and blame the other.
What I wondered about that incident is the absence of a map….
iirc a Royal Navy boat nipped through some RUS territorial waters just by Crimea ?

“Wokery and Government overreach are the great issues of the early 2020s. Lucy Letby isn’t of the same order. Nevertheless, this young woman, of previously blameless character, has been imprisoned for the rest of her life on circumstantial evidence. With rare exceptions, the media have relished turning her into a ghoul. They are ably assisted by the Cheshire Constabulary who, post-trial, drip-feed corroborative detail to add verisimilitude, as in Gilbert and Sullivan’s ‘The Criminal Cried’. They tell the media that Letby kept an “encrypted diary”, with “L.O.” having some sinister meaning. In fact, Letby has a cursive script and it’s L.D. not ‘L.O.’, being nurses’ common shorthand for ‘Long Day’, or a 12-hour shift. They’ve auctioned the film rights for their investigation, with ITV placing the winning bid. I’d advise ITV to check carefully for spin.”

Apparently Vine was knocked off his bike by a van, I’m very upset…………………………….
the van didn’t drive over his head.
The latest Highway Code guidance which many cyclists took to be God given rights result in some of them not cycling carefully and defensively. They now expect motorists to accept frankly ignorant obstruction. Vine seems to be one of those entitled idiots. I’ve cycled more or less all my life and driven for 45 years so I know what I’m talking about.
The video is very entertaining – some say . Vines self entitlement might have become his epitaph at coroners ‘ court if the incident had gone badly …
Vile gets suitable slagged off in the comments.
He’s a grade-A pr1ck. Which is why he fits in so well at the BBC.
Earlier I commented on this, regarding van drivers eyesight, having seen this I would ask why is Mr Vine trying to enter a road that is clearly marked no entry? Is it now the rig of the day for every cyclist to wear a camera on their helmets? I would bet that an awful lot of footage gets wiped when they see what absolute morons they are!
> why is Mr Vine trying to enter a road that is clearly marked no entry?
Below the no entry sign there is a blue cycle symbol and also the lane ahead is marked with a cycle symbol on the cycle lane.
I would agree that this is awful signage and traditionally all the exceptions to no entry are placed directly underneath a no entry sign.
This brings me to a paper I read from Cambridge (USA) where they were claiming that separate lanes for cycles actually increases the crashes that cycles have because drivers get more confused where they should drive and only watch their lane and not all the other lanes that they need to watch. I am starting to sympathise with this view. Our Jeremy needs to be segregated by 5 ploughed fields and only then will he be safe. Maybe he needs his own hyperloop tunnel.
honestly he has to be the unluckiest cycllist in the world with the number of situations he manages to “find” himself in
with that kind of luck I would be taking a hint and buying a car myself.
A defensive cyclist would have simply quickly swerved wide to the right around the van (the road was clear) then got out of the way as the drivers only option was to reverse back.
But no : Vile goes right into his blind spot and stops.
Vile is like all Lefties : no common sense for the real world. The further Left they are, the less they have. They live in a theory-world of their own. He will be at his limit fixing a puncture on his bike (if he can even do that).
