A leading BBC presenter thinks the reason the flagship ‘today ‘ programme has lost huge numbers of listeners is that they are ‘news deniers’ . It seems he has a fairly low opinion of listeners . Like so many in the BBC – he is right – the audience is wrong . far Left Group Think Rules … but the audience goes away …

I am so deeply touched that the UK will open its first chemical-kamikaze centre up in Scotland:
Years ago I asked a liebour liberal bed-wetter what the moral difference was between a wet-house (where people could drink in ‘safety’) and a gas-chamber. He replied that people were not forced to use a wet-house.
This is the NZ PM defence over a poisonous injection – “No one forced you to take it”.

Just been watching the next `Neil Oliver ‘( top of the cancellation target list ) . He talks about the 77 Brigade Tory MP Dinage who threatened a website on House of Commons paper .
Her husband is a brigadier – apparently – for a department which snoops on us – the British . Intel people reading this – what is your boss like ? Is he the worst 4 letter word in the language like his wife ?
Anyway – I was thinking about the way 2 pieces of repression were sold to us – 1 ULEz – because a kid with a cough died – 2 – online safety – because a kid who spent too much time on the internet topped herself .
Ok – tragic cases – I’m heartless right? Maybe – but perhaps the vermin using these cases to diminish thousands of life’s are more heartless than me ?
What freedom goes next in the name of community safety ?

I wonder if Dishi Rishi has the gumption to realise there could be a lot of hidden votes from the ‘silent majority’ if he really pushes back on all the left wing zealotry nonsense.
He’s started with the 2030 car ban and other nett zero dross. Today he’s agreed to open up a new North Sea oil/ gas area – an excellent idea imo. He needs to keep the momentum going. He’ll still likely lose the election but along the way the left will have to crawl out from under their stones to oppose him and thus be seen for what they are. The BBC will have nowhere to hide.

ONE LIFE IS ONE TOO MANY …
“Safe and Effective” Vaccines were banned if 80 lives were ruined.
“Safe and Effective” mRNA jabs are not banned if half a million lives are ruined.
Instead the state, the intelligence services and the media turn on the people.
The people watch Rumble. Caroline Dinenage sends a threatening government letter to Rumble. If it goes to Court then Caroline Dinenage will probably send a government letter warning the jurors to find Brand guilty or else the government will write to Banks to demonetise the Jurors.
The CIA betrayed pro-democracy Chinese people within the Communist Party to the Chinese Communist Party elite. The Chinese Communist Party eliminated them and their families. Epoch TV was set up by these people. Epoch TV is like Rumble. Caroline Dinenage and the pro-EU Five Eyes traitors are on the side of the CCP. Epoch TV is on our side.

Indeed. And the funny thing is….no-one in government or media is asking any questions about this. Why not? WHY NOT????
I believe incidentally that excess deaths in the aged population are relatively small – as many have already died during the early covid period.
The excess deaths do however go down through all the age groups to young adults.

I fear you might be right about Oliver being on an ever shortening list for the scaffold Fed… shame, I rather like him these days.
He does seem a little more careful about what he says than Loz Fox, but they must be sniffing around for (or carefully orchestrating?) their next ‘scandal’, and there aren’t too many left with their head above the parapet.
We all know what happened to Robespierre in the end though, so we can only hope those playing leading roles in this witch hunt will also, one day, face their just desserts.

Perhaps for those of us to have been awake in the pre woke days then the reduction in freedom to speak – offend – is more noticable – with self censorship killing a million thoughts and words
The internet really highlights the change .
The fact that a tory MP can think it is OK to ‘ deplatform ‘ someone because of a TV documentary is the latest warning signal – that the likes of this site has a rapidly reducing life expectancy.
And that freedoms will only continue to diminish as The State The woke makes what is approved less and less .

I would ask readers to watch this 30 minute video on what is going on in Africa.
It mostly concerns France being unceremoniously being booted out of Africa by Russia, and more importantly how they are doing this.
Africa is an area of the globe completely overlooked by the news media so no one is really as clued up as they should be on this important region.
Which brings me to decolonialism. I have never heard anyone remark that the issue of colonialism is anything other than a fairly modern woke East Coast US university creation, however it has much more sinister origins.
The concept of de-colonialism was invented and used as a lever in Africa by Stalin as he sought influence in Africa which was largely under Western governance at the time.
The reality is the modern version of this is basic Stalinist Marxist doctrine dressed up as something new, and a Tory party so confused cowardly and useless that it has done absolutely nothing to counter it.
Thank God none of this shower were around in those post war years when the cold war was at its height:

The BBC wants to extend the number of originated Welsh language-hosted hours from 25 to 61.5 hours per week on BBC Radio Cymru 2. This means that BBC Radio Cymru 2 will become a UK Public Service in its own right.
Under the BBC Framework Agreement, the introduction of a new UK Public Service is a material change and therefore subject to a competition assessment by Ofcom.
Our provisional conclusions
We recognise that the BBC’s proposal has the potential to offer audiences across Wales better access to Welsh-language programming.
Earlier this month, the BBC published its Public Interest Test submission. We are satisfied that this provided potentially affected parties with a suitable opportunity to comment. We also consider that the nature of the market analysis undertaken by the BBC to determine the potential impact of the proposed change on fair and effective competition is appropriate and proportionate.
It is therefore our intention to undertake a shorter assessment of less than six months and we welcome comments on this approach by 11 October 2023 to BBCRadioCymru2.assessment@ofcom.org.uk.
Subject to responses received, including any concerns raised, we reserve the right to convert this into a full BBC Competition Assessment.

On GB News there was a piece regarding asylum applications, I think the host was JRM. The interviewee was someone with a good knowledge of how asylum applications were processed. He said that it was very difficult to provide the evidence to prove the application was justified. The evidence was examined critically by the Civil Servants who would often demand more and better evidence in order to approve the application. The process would often take six months at least.
So my question is that if our illegal immigrants/asylum seekers are disposing of all their identity documents, how can asylum applications possibly be processed or even commenced?

Mr WGAP has context about the Laurence Fox case
It is a bit weird to say ‘God that woman’s argument is terrible, and she’s repulsive who’d shag her ? I wouldn’t’
but her own tweets show that is the way she talks herself.
So the idea that she was greatly offended by Fox is gaslighting.
However it’s a classic case of a bully taunting you into bringing you down to their level.
If the rowdy pupil says she doesn’t care about the teacher’s friends suicide,
he shouldn’t get drawn into replying she’s someone no one would sleep with.
That’s hardly professional
So Fox’s banter was legal, but a poor example to viewers.
He was trying to say it’s great to have strong women , they deserve RESPECT, and are attractive for that.
but the way this woman carries on, she deserves no respect, she’s not attractive for that.
Hardly surprising GBnews are now bullying by taking offence

and she doesn’t then it’s not fair.
#2 He should’ve known that lefty hate groups would deliberately get the wrong end of the stick.

Of course, she wasn’t offended, and you’d have to be utterly clueless to believe she “literally felt sick” on hearing what Loz Fox said about her – it was playground stuff, and she seems to be the type to regularly resort to far, far worse (especially about men).
It was a stitch up, and Fox and Wooten stupidly fell for it. I’m not sure GBN have any choice over how they react, given the times we live in, the ongoing Brand thing, and Ofcom (+that Brown Troll) lurking in the background waiting for an excuse to nobble them.

Sounds a heck of a lot like the Hokey-Cokey to me but hey-hoh
Anyway, here we go Khue B. Luu…
Here’s the story of what happened. At around midday on Wednesday, my [Khue B. Luu, BBC News Vietnamese, London] phone screen lit up. It was a message that read: “There are some people who crossed the border from France to England in a refrigerated van.” I didn’t know who the caller was, but believed he knew me from when I covered the Essex lorry deaths, as a lot of Vietnamese people approached me that time. (BBC)
All I knew at this point, from what the caller had told me, was that the vehicle was in France, but seemed to have turned around and was no longer going towards its original destination – the border to England. (BBC) – it’s worth pointing out here – if only for the information of our BBC News Vietnamese audience – the UK doesn’t have a border as such with France. There’s the Eurotunnel of course, but famously the British Isles are… an island off the north west coast of Europe. Continental Europe, by and large, has this Schengen arrangement wherein one simply walks or drives unquestioned and unimpeded across former national boundaries – excepting during Lockdowns – but crossing the border into the UK usually requires passing border checkpoints and/or a certain amount of getting your feet wet, so to speak. Unless that is you’ve booked ‘container class’ passage.
“It’s so cold, it [the cooler] keeps blowing,” a girl texted me from the truck, which was carrying bananas. She said the truck was sealed with an iron bar. (BBC)
Trustpilot is a Danish consumer business operating a review website founded in Denmark in 2007 which hosts reviews of businesses worldwide. Nearly 1 million new reviews are posted each month

One video showed a dark compartment, and stacked up to the roof were cardboard boxes containing fruit, leaving only a few dozen centimetres of space for them to sit on the floor. There was a cough, and a young female voice said in fluent English: “I can’t breathe.” The girl told me they got in the lorry at around 00:30 the night before. They had since spent more than 10 hours in there and started to feel uneasy when their location data on their phone showed that the truck had changed direction. (BBC)
Without much time to think, I contacted colleagues from BBC News and reporters living in France. At the same time, a reporter for the French newspaper Le Monde in London was also informed and he immediately alerted his colleague at the Paris editorial office that specialised in immigration. (BBC)
The girl was able to share her live GPS location with me, from which I saw the truck was on the E15 highway, near Drace, north of Dijon. Then, I asked a colleague in France to help contact the closest police station to the truck, and they were able to get in touch with them and send over the details we had. The girl was unable to make calls from inside the lorry. It’s not clear to me why not, but it may have been down to the type of Sim card she was using. (BBC)
When you travel outside your home country to another EU country, you don’t have to pay any additional charges to use your mobile phone. This is known as “roaming” or “roam like at home”. Your calls (to mobile and fixed phones), text messages (SMS) and data use (web browsing, music and video streaming etc.) (Your Europe, Roaming: Using a mobile phone in the EU. Your Europe is an EU site designed to help you do things in other European countries)
After talking for a while, I found out that before getting into the truck, three of the girl’s companions decided not to come with her. I’m not sure why they made that decision, but they did take a photo of the truck’s license plate number. The photo showed it had Irish licence plates, and on my phone I was able to see its location again. (BBC)
French police in the Rhone region told us they had determined the vehicle’s location and had intercepted it. (BBC)
I texted her, but I don’t think she read my messages – the police must have arrived and confiscated her phone. The four Vietnamese people say they got in the lorry with the promise of being taken safely to England. As for me, I felt relief knowing that they were now safe in France. They are safe, I told myself, that’s the most important thing. (BBC)
At about 17:00 local time (16:00 BST), French prosecutor Leatitia Francart in Villefrance sur Saone reported that the vehicle turned out to be from Lithuania and that the driver was under investigation. Ms Francart added that four young women were Vietnamese, one of them a minor, and the other two women were from Iraq. Why, after the tragedy of 39 deaths in Essex in 2019, are there still young girls from Vietnam getting into the back of a truck to cross the border? I can’t find any definitive answer. (BBC) – what an intriguing mystery…
We leave this drama for the Daily Mirror’s big new campaign. Forget Dangerous Dogs (that was last week’s news – and the government had to act) forget the Shoplifting Epidemic (that was yesterday’s news – and the government tended to ignore that one): Knife Crime Epidemic… EVERY PARENT’S NIGHTMARE… A 15-year-old girl killed on her way to school… This is a national emergency… Government must act now… But how many more of our children must die before this Tory Government tackles this crisis? (Mirror)
A boy aged 17, believed to be known to the victim, was arrested shortly after the girl died at 09:21. Neither the victim nor the suspect have been named. (BBC) – I believe they’ve banned or are in the process of banning zombie knives. But given the anonymity rules that will prevail concerning the identity, history and background of the suspect, how are we really to judge the context of the problem?
Visiting the scene Met Police commissioner Sir Mark Rowley called the murder “senseless” and said it was “impossible to comprehend.” (BBC)

“ He never said that. Why, when you had some moral high ground did you have to throw it away by lying and making up false allegations?
Here is what he said and I have attached the receipts that prove his case.
“Ava said women should be *able* to weaponise false rape allegations in order to keep men afraid of *actually* committing sexual assault.” This was because, when Isabel Oakeshott raised that concern about a young boy’s “life being ruined” with a false accusation, you said, “I like that terror. I like that. I think men should be frightened.””

“These people need to be kept off the air”
Former PM Gordon Brown responds to the suspension of two GB News presenters and says ‘you can’t allow people to appear on air and talk about women in that way’.

GB News makes front page headlines. But only because the BBC can attack them. Same as Trump : only bad things make their reports.
And just look at that woman in ANOTHER very heavily edited video by the BBC so there is no context at all. Just the bits they want you to hear.
I agree with Lawrence : that woman is vile.
Of course they don’t report things like Farage winning ‘Best News Presenter’ TRIC award. In fact it’s quite the opposite : they showed what truly spiteful people they are:

BBC Boo As Nigel Farage Wins TV Award?
‘James Whale said is was the BBC who were booing, if true its pretty embarrassing.’
And never forget how TRIC tried to cheat that vote by not allowing some votes for Nigel. I tried it myself : it would not take my vote until I changed my nomination away from Nigel then it went through first time. The Left are dirty b@st@rds and after everything I have seen, I have no doubt they cheated to get Biden in.
But of course the BBC can do whatever they like as they have the power to set the news narrative and OFCOM are just as biased to the Left. Which is absolutely wrong.

The BBC have clearly put this story out on the TNI because it’s everywhere. The polar opposite of all the other stabbings which are brushed straight under the carpet.

Simon Webb on his “History Debunked” Youtube channel
talks about this. He asks why when 5% of the UK
population are black . Why do we see at least 40%
representation in every day life . In adverts etc etc.
However I will go much further .
Why do we see nearly 100% representation
on the BBC internet news pages . When it comes to the
cost of living crisis.IE Mortgage repayments, Utility bills, prices
in the supermarkets etc. Even today on antibiotics.
Yes we know that the BBC use Getty’s imaging. Where at
least 80% of their models used for these imaging features
are black. BUT as Simon Webb says ” Will somebody explain
the reason for it, to me?”
What I personally find disgusting is that BBC is inferring to us thar
ONLY black folk are suffering from the cost of living crisis. To
be honest I find this bordering on racism.

It’s a form of ethnic cleansing. The use of imagery to portray the sort of people you want, and those you do not want, is a technique widely used by authoritarian states. In Nazi Germany, Aryans (‘wanted’) were portrayed as tall, blonde, athletic, heroic, whereas Jews (‘unwanted’) were portrayed as small, unhealthy, dark, sinister. The propaganda used by the government and media here is arguably more subtle and restrained (for now), but the purpose is identical. The imagery is not meant to be descriptive of British society, but prescriptive, e.g. the overuse of mixed race families in advertising, specifically the cliched black male/white woman/mixed children model. The use of fantasy imagery in an historical context e.g. nonsense such as black Romans, cavemen and Regency-period aristocrats, is specifically intended to undermine the history and culture of the country. It can be argued that these methods fall within section B, and possiby sections C and D, of the UN’s 1948 Definition of Genocide.

Readers might recall how a few days ago I advised to stock up on petrol and diesel against rocketting price increases and potential shortages come the Winter.
Yesterday Reuters (or rooters as Americans pronounce it) released some news which sent the price even higher as crude now looks likely to reach $100 a barrel very soon.
Most of us are aware of the rank corruption which infests American politics and which extends to this side of the channel, undoubtedly made worse by the Clinton Presidency when it really seems to have accelerated to new levels.
The Biden administration is now so entirely corrupt it appears to have lost the moral compass of knowing the difference between right and wrong.
Prior to the mid term elections Biden order the SPR to be drained in order to lower the price of ‘gas’ at the pumps to give him and his party an advantage which the terminally stupid American people would not see through – and it worked – alongside an equally corrupt Mitch McConnel of the Republican party misallocating party funds for his own advantage rather than his party.
Biden promised to refil the SPR when oil fell below $70 a barrel, and Saudi was prepared to sell this oil on contract, but like all good Socialist a promise is never even worth the vibrations in the air it causes, and he failed to refil the SPR.
So now comes the news (not reported on the BBC) that the Oklahoma Cushing storage facility is pretty much storing fumes, and that following Bidens profligacy the US will not be able to ever fully refill the SPR leading the USA into energy insecurity.
For us however that has meant even greater uncertainty with a completey useless government who are incapable of doing anything constructive or positive, seeking crazy Green alternatives which don’t work and neglecting the stuff which does.
And so the people of these islands might well have a cold and bleak Winter to look forward to. The US has its own problems with diesel shortages, and although it might have been a source of diesel for Europe this Winter, now we know that it will be forced to look out for its own people, and with a corrupt administration in place they aren’t going to make election prospects worse by sending much needed fuel over to Europe.
My advice is, if you can buy a couple of 20L Jerry cans brim the car and then cycle the fuel, refilling the tanks instead of the car, it will save you money at least in the short term, and if the worst does occur you will at least have a buffer.
An alternative form of heating for the home might also be worth looking at, opening an old chimney and installing a log burner or even a coal fire. No one can know the future, but we do know that energy insecurity could cause the gas to go off and the lights to go out.

Thoughtful
I completely agree with your advice – I’m only on a scooter but it will be wise NOW to fill up because 1 . The price of oil is hitting $100 up from $70 and is likely to stay high for a number of factors including the value of the £ …..
A shortage at refineries will induce winter panic buying – so beat the queues now …..
As for Biden – Obama – they’ve got the vote so fixed it won’t matter what the dumb yanks have to pay for their ‘gas’….

Millions wrongly labelled with penicillin allergy, pharmacists warn

Who is this poor black woman about to swallow a penicillin capsule and possibly have an allergic reaction you may ask ?.
It’s from Getty (as usual):

And she is black getty. You missed that out.
Getty pictures used by the BBC are basically ALL fake and are simply racist/sexist agenda lies. Perfect for the BBC.
But as we are always told when we point out these Leftist propaganda photos are fake : ‘They capture the sentiment’.
But of course that means the sentiment the BBC want us to have. Not the real world.

Of course their reporting on this omits to mention the massively greater number of cases where police body cameras are used and have been vital evidence in securing convictions against lots of thoroughly nasty individuals.
It would be interesting to know exactly why they hate the Police so much they put huge resources into gathering anything they can to use as ammunition.
It’s almost like their new junior reporters join the BBC with a built-in mission to target the police.

TOADY Watch #1 – ooops, major fiscal clanger by the one who wishes to be the next First Lord of the Treasury
Keir Starmer (take that knighthood away!) is now on tape, held by the BBC – copies available?, saying that private schools, ie ‘Public Schools’, “do not have to pass on the VAT to the parents.” Ahem! Keir!!! If you make ‘Public Schools’ liable to VAT they will have to register for VAT.
Then, when the Public School invoices the parents the bill must have a VAT registration number and must contain a date which is the tax point. The parent then has to pay the fees plus the VAT … or the child will be removed from education or the school will have to jam up the UK Court system even further and take action against the parent.
What was really interesting was that none of the BBC presenters knew the basics of the UK tax system to correct Keir Starmer’s blunder
– or –
the BBC are so Labour Party centric in their thinking and support that they did not wish to correct der Great Leader on air. All hail Starmer!
