‘ Irish citizen who has lived in the country for 20 years.’
Compared to black girl in the Jungle vs. Nigel Farage.
“”You don’t like immigrants.” She says, ‘I’m one of them’ –
a nod to her birth in Belgium to Congolese parents before arriving in the UK in 2009.
So, is she a UK citizen or an Immigrant ?….
Unlike the knife Attacker who obviously to the BBC isn’t an immigrant……
BBC hands out 100 million letters for non-payment of the TV license!
I read in last thursdays newspaper: Daily Express. (Nov 22nd)
Also found here (with links to other news sources reporting same).. https://www.cordbusters.co.uk/tv-licence-fee-bbc-millions-letters/
It made me wonder….why are they so desperate?.… Surely IF they were so globally ‘SUCCESSFUL’ (as BBC always claim it’s the world most ‘trusted new network’, then why do they have to threaten everyone in the UK those with anyTV set to force pay for BBc channels.? And hopelessly chase those that NEVER will watch the BBC, or cannot pay – or too old, to pay for it?. Surely if the BBC is soooooh! damn good, many flush rich people would happily pay MORE for it here and globally -the demotic marxist and soft fluffy liberals. Why is it just the UK that is FORCED to pay for all of it? Cannot the DAVOS ‘globalists’ pay for it themselves perhaps? Are they rather short of money for hotel bills?
During COVID lock-down Tim Davie stated (during last BBC charter renewal): that the BBC as ‘vital to the nation as the NHS’. And we all know how badly the NHS is run and its almost total failure and vast expense. And during lockdown, many hospitals were actually closed. The BBC claims were totally for ‘lockdown’ (forever) probably co-inciding with ‘net zero’, climate change and joy-of-joys, how much better we would all be back in the EU as one big happy family with Islam sharing the spoils. A liberal dream.
So the BBC problems run deep. If they lose the cash cow charter they are finished.
The Spectator: “The news for Davie here is unremittingly grim. The number of people who pay the statutory licence fee dropped by 700,000 in 2021, 300,000 the following year and another 500,000 this year. Audience figures for Radio 4 fell by 1.2 million year on year, after a previous decline in September 2022, while BBC Scotland’s audience figures dropped by 38 per cent between 2020 and 2022.
As an example: BBC ‘Newsnight’, which in the first years had audiences approaching one million and now struggles by with a third of that. Similarly, ‘Question Time’ has seen its viewing figures almost halve since the pandemic…”
– Rod Liddle (The Spectator in July 2023)
Reality shows.
The efforts to make the BBC ‘relevant’ now rest on just two shows and ‘Gary’s’ twitter feed..
The BBC greatest hits. ‘Strictly Come dancing’ and ‘Dr Who’ (at Christmas) and the utterance of Gary Linekar, who they treasure, even the gaffs. Until he goes full ‘Carol Vorderman’ exemplify the problems the BBC have at BBC Faulty Towers, they will continually run out of money, no matter what they do.
Did I mention that the BBC have a £1.8 Billion pension fund shortage (2023)?
And that is why they need your money, to fill the treasure ship.
Money, money money.
The BBC has an annual income of £3.8 Billion from the TV license fee, but thanks to its ‘commercial arm’, BBC Worldwide this can be doubled on a good year. It can even buy and sell its own TV programs (on freeview using its Ad revenue). This is creative accounting at its finest. And yet they are still broke.
The TV tax is free of all UK corporate taxes!, The rest is ‘commercial’ hidden away ‘off shore’ for ‘investment’. The TV telly Tax pays for the free spending BBC. They spend every penny on themselves. What’s ‘left-over’ they make ‘in-house’ tripe programs (such as ‘homes under the hammer’) and usually copied from US based commercial ‘daytime’ TV dross is standard. UK National radio (they have and own dross radio stations a plenty). It gets worse each year. They demand more money to improve it. They won’t, of course!, why should they?
The BBC broadcast Charter is the basis of all the BBC’s problems. Greed, (amongst other factors any public such state run public monopoly has, but the BBC has a license for it) The BBC gets paid for global influence. Soros, Gates and even the the EU itself). So the BBC does not actually work for us in the UK i.e. the TV license payer. It pretends and fobs you off with Dr Who and Strictly Come Dancing.
‘As bad as the NHS’ is the best you can say about this corrupt corporate body.
I watched the great William Hartnell in colour, but the BBC hopes a Black Dr Who will bring back its lost audience. Not progress but regression as William Hartnell’s ancestors left Africa 100,000 years ago. So a 100,000 year degeneration is expected for the Doctor.
I loved watching that, Rich. I remember it first time around.
I thought it was interesting to note that the Daleks have reappeared on Dr Who zillions of times since but I don’t think the Thals have ever featured again.
Although the Daleks were clearly Nazis in their ideology, it was the peace-loving Thals who actually looked like the Aryan ideal. Perhaps a black Dr Who could revisit them and inform them that they are a hideously white society. He could explain to them the benefits of diversity and advise them to adopt a policy of mass immigration.
@Philip – The BBC is The Matrix. It sucks away your money, keeps viewers ‘entertained’, asleep and dreaming with mindless shows while pumping propaganda into their empty minds.
Mass murdering Malinformation from the BBC lead Trusted News Initiative says that Doctors from WHO say that Ivermectin is deadly and Covid vaccines are not responsible for turbo cancers in vaccinated children. Doctors not paid by Big Pharma say otherwise.
Ivermectin is one of the safest drugs we have and is used for treating Bilharzia (River Blindness). The drug has been used for over 25 years. Australian researchers early on identified repurposing this drug for treating covid.
Big Pharma would not want a cheap available drug to be authorised for treating covid because then they would not be given EUA for giving people their new mRNA poison which is ineffective and dangerous.
When Geert Wilders won the Dutch election the Today programme started their sneering against him immediately . Starting off with laughing how to pronounce his name .
Well now , would they do that to an African leader/ dictator?
Do they have fun with the leader of China’s name ?
It looks like Geert Wilders will be another President Trump to the BBC . We won’t hear much about his policies, but much more about his hair .
“‘Racism is racism but not when it comes to anti-Jewish racism’: BBC accused of ‘underlying bias’ after news staff were banned from attending anti-Semitism march
‘Ruling’ for those in news, current affairs, factual journalism and senior leaders.
The broadcaster’s stance has been compared to its position on Pride parades in 2020, when director general Tim Davie told staff they were free to attend.
Critics of the decision claim that many BBC staff have attended pro-Palestinian marches in recent weeks. One of the corporation’s biggest stars, Gary Lineker, backed pro-Palestinian protesters marching through London on Armistice Day.
One source told Mail Online: ‘On the one hand they are saying that they’re not impartial on racism and staff don’t need to be but for some reason that we do need to be impartial on anti-Semitism. We can only assume that where this racism is concerned, Jews don’t count.
‘Many people here have been to the pro-Palestine marches and are happy to talk about it at work. People here seem to think Zionists are evil. One colleague said I was OK because I wasn’t ‘a proper Zionist’. They don’t have a clue.”
Leo Pearlman, co-founder of the TV production company Fulwell 73, told The Times that the corporation’s approach showed a ‘worrying distortion of reality and underlying bias’.
He said: ‘Just when one thinks the BBC cannot find a new depth of incompetence to sink to in their reporting and handling of these tragic last six weeks, they seem to have decided to draw a clear distinction between anti-Semitism and every other -ism with this directive to their staff.’
Another source told the paper: ‘If the BBC believes that racism is racism and not acceptable in any shape or form then going on a rally against anti-Semitism shouldn’t be an issue.’
“‘It was a surprise’: Palestinian woman, arrested at 16 and jailed for eight years for border guard knife attack had ‘no idea’ she was about to be freed by Israel – as families celebrate release of other inmates”
Not a bad trick is it? Become slightly famous on screen, start to think about the power, then f*** it all up and retire on several thousand a month because they all close ranks at the head office and pretend it never happened.
Populist used to mean ideas that appealed to the broad mass of a countries population.
The BBC have simply re-engineered it to mean anyone who does not read The Guardian and is therefore an uncouth dolt and not to be considered as in any way worthy by the intelligentsia such as them.
The last time this mindset took hold by the intelligentsia it led to the French Revolution and many of those worthy talking heads parted company with their bodies thanks to populists!
BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – another one ‘bigs itself up’ …
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-67527900 I see the Times is now claiming to be ‘Newspaper of the Year’ along with the Mirror and the Guardian and the Telegraph. They cannot all be Newspaper of the year … or can they? Is the BBC ‘Broadcaster of the Year’? (Answer – see Philip_2’s excellent post above.)
“Lee Anderson accuses BBC of pumping out ‘anti-government’ propaganda
The deputy chair of the Conservative Party tore into Britain’s national broadcaster over its political bias.
He compared the BBC to TV stations in authoritarian countries such as North Korea which “pump out propaganda on a daily basis” that is always pro-government.
Mr Anderson added: “But we have a national broadcaster that’s anti-government.”
The outspoken Red Wall MP has had a number of run-ins over the BBC, recently clashing with one of the corporation’s radio presenters after he was accused of dishonesty. He went on to ask the journalist 10 times if she had ever told a lie.”
It’s a much bigger problem than Lee claims. The BBC aren’t anti-government, they are anti-anyone who does not agree with their own liberal/left globalist agenda.
They are the new Nazis. They are modern fascists by the original definition : they oppress anybody they don’t agree with. They have got rid of all right-wing ministers and the astute observer will note how they NEVER report anything about the right-wing unless it’s negative.
This is how wiki describes ‘1984’:
‘It centres on the consequences of totalitarianism, mass surveillance and repressive regimentation of people and behaviours within society.’
That’s exactly what they are trying to do to the white majority using BAME as their weapons. It’s why they don’t care one bit about any BAME murders if whitey didn’t do it.
I have to say that I’m finding the tone and ‘celebration style’ of the BBC reports deeply disturbing.
It’s only 13. There are over 200 still being held underground in tunnels and constantly in fear of their life. They were kidnapped for this exact reason : to be used as human bargaining chips. Where is the criticism of the terrorists ???.
And when all 50 or so are out, those 200 or so will still be human shields held in apalling conditions. Nothing much will have changed at all.
I’m not sure what the BBC agenda is here. They always have one where Muslim terrorists are concerned. I suspect it’s to make everybody think how nice they all are and how bad Israel are when they restart their campaign to wipe out Hamas.
This is how they end the article:
‘Hamas took more than 200 hostages during a cross-border attack on southern Israel on 7 October in which 1,200 people were killed.’
240 hostages BBC. Why not give the number ?. And I see ‘innocent civilians brutally slaughtered in cold blood by terrorists’ has now been reduced to ‘people’.
‘Human rights organisations say the number of Palestinians held without charge in Israeli jails has shot up since the 7 October attacks.’
Which human rights organisations BBC ?. The usual Muslim/far-left ones like HRW who only ever get involved when it suits them ?. And what does ‘shot up’ mean ?. Is that supposed to be serious journalism ?.
A ridiculous pair of statements which have been given like that by the BBC for one reason : to imply there is some kind of moral equivalence between what Hamas did and what Israel have done.
Can’t find a picture of this BBC drone – but his twitter profile says:
‘Send me story/fried chicken tips’ so he’s another kidult.
Going by the below statement, there must be a hell of a lot of racists of all colours, who regularly mention the word “black” for example, including her, as she seems obsessed with skin colour, whilst doing her level best to appear as white as possible :
“Meghan Markle told King Charles there are TWO ‘royal racists’ who spoke about her son Archie’s skin colour ”
Would Markle have much to say if people speculated how ginger the kids were going to be?
Every family speculates what appearance their babies will have, will it look like Dad, Mum etc, black is just one characteric, take offence if you wish to be a victim and make a point.
Some of our best friends are a mixed couple. It seems entirely normal to wonder what colour their children might be, I strongly suspect they would wonder too.
just as you would wonder if a forthcoming baby is a boy or a girl. Would that be sexist?
I can’t for the life of me work out why wondering about a baby’s colour would be racist.
It’s an interesting fact that babies are often quite different in colouration to their parents, and change as they mature – the infants of some black parents are pink at birth, and a lot of ‘white’ babies are actually purple, or dark tan, both of mine were deep red.
Eye colour at birth is fascinating as well, lots of newborns have blue eyes that later darken to brown. Hair colouring is interesting too, children often have blonder/lighter coloured hair (even some black babies), which darkens as they get older, and straight hair turns wavy, or vice versa.
One of my aunts, of Western Scottish ancestry, has incredibly frizzy (think ‘Afro’) hair, which was carrot red when she was younger. I’ve noticed it on quite a few Irish and Scots women. Some claim it’s evidence of ‘black’ ancestry – I doubt it, all things considered.
There are countless different ‘races’ of humanity, most have some degree of mixture, and there is variation within each of those, there are dozens of ‘black’ races alone – there is probably more difference between some of the ‘black’ African peoples than there is between some who claim to be ‘black’ and most Europeans, and many in the US (and the UK?) who claim to be ‘black’ aren’t really ‘black’ at all – Obama and Markle, for example!
My wife and I are of varied ancestry, neither classically ‘English’, although we were both born and brought up in this country and largely of British ancestry. My wife could pass as Scandanavian or German, me as Jewish, or Italian. We, and family and friends, talked a lot about what our kids would look like – in the end, one like her mother, but with father’s green eyes, and one like his father, but with mother’s grey eyes.
We seem to be moving towards a point in time where it is considered completely unacceptable to comment on ANY differences between people at all, and won’t that be boring?
Spot the difference: the BBC website refers to the man who intervened in the Irish stabbing as ‘born in Brazil’ but the attacker as ‘an Irish citizen, who has lived in the country for 20 years’.
Definitely no mention that he was ‘born in Algeria’.
Typical BBC bias of selective reporting of facts to suit their pro-immigration agenda.

Comrade Robinson chats with an approved £ Irish politician £ about ‘the troubles ‘ in Dublin . It’s the Far Right wot did it . The pair didn’t discuss making them wear a badge , stick them on trains and ‘ sent east’ but they might have well have – on the numbers – the Republic of Eire is even more over run with foreigners than the Uk … and if the Irish don’t like it – suck it up ….
There was no alternative view – and no doubt BBCOFCOM will investigate and impose penalties such as closing the bbc down …
Many media outlets are now informing us that he was an Algerian immigrant.
But the BBC – despite an extensive ‘live update’ feed – have not mentioned that at all. Considering it is the entire justification for the riots, one might think it was an important fact to include.
This is a whopping agenda-based lie by omission from the BBC – even by their standards.
On BBC news last night they did a voxpop of two people commenting on the Dublin disturbances.
Amazingly, both of them had ‘darker skin tones’ and no trace of an Irish accent.
What are the chances of that?
In reality, minimal to near-zero.
In BBCLand, very high indeed.
‘In the letter, the reporters accused BBC of showing a biased stance in favor of Israel.’
Take a minute until you stop laughing. Then be concerned that these BBC staff are writing the news everybody else reads.
Reading between the lines, I think what they are saying is that the BBC is not biased ENOUGH against Israel rather than actually in favour of them.
‘The letter also pointed out that the BBC did not provide significant information to its viewers about the history of Israel’s occupation and the suffering of Palestinians.’
That sounds an awful lot like they are justifying the terrorist attack.
Apparently 8 have backed this letter though none of them admit who they are.
You can be 100% sure Bowen is involved – I would lay odds he is the instigator. I wonder if this is why he has been hauled back to the UK and silenced.
As I looked around for what Bowen is doing now, I found this:
‘During his coverage in Lebanon in May 2000, when the Israel Defense Forces were pulling out, his colleague and friend were killed. Their car came under tank fire from the IDF and his “fixer” and driver were killed. He later described the incident as the pivotal moment of his life.’
I think that completely explains his extreme anti-semetism. But not why the BBC allowed him to go there as an ‘unbiased and impartial’ reporter.
Bowens driver was called ‘Abed Takkoush’. His camerman was called Malek Kenaan. So we know which side of the fence Bowen was on.
Apparently:
‘Mr. Bowen and his crew drove through the newly abandoned ”security zone” toward the Israeli border.’
So some men in a car heading towards Israeli positions during a hasty withdrawal stop and he gets out and starts setting up a camera on a tripod and seems surprised people in an Israel tank nearly a mile away thought they might be Hezbollah setting up an anti-tank missile.
No wonder Bowen was upset : that blood is on HIS hands. No way he should have been in that location. Bowen should have been charged with murder for telling his driver to go there.
Must revisit the actual situation, but although it was roundly approached by partisans from both extremes, I believe the gunner was absolved by an investigation. Like Panorama does.
When it comes to fog of war, I have no experience and can only imagine.
It seems scary, noisy, vision impaired all round. I have sat in a tank and peeped out. Not exactly the panoramic window at Berchestgarten.
So some of few things you can rely on is uniforms and locations to assist IFF.
JezBo and most media colleagues always appear to be with guys firing stuff, dressed in civvies and, as you say, one man’s Panasonic zoom cam is another RPG.
So hard to see why they might expect things to go other than awry on occasion.
It is entirely explicable that the experience sent him off his rocker.
Less so that he was kept on, there, and promoted to be impartial at all times, trust them, up to including his and his staffs’ various stunts to date.
The only way for Western journalists to access Gaza currently is through tours led by the Israeli military.
Or catch up with BBC ringers to get the ‘verified’ skinny?
Makes you wonder how all the journos who ended up dead in the blue tarps got there. Not Western? Part time journos? Who knows? Other than twitter. Apparently.
There was a video the other day of a tank shooting a car which had sped towards it then was trying to turn around.
At first you think Israel went too far as it didn’t appear to pose any threat and was trying to get away. But the more you think about it, the more likely is was that it had Hamas inside. And if it did, it would just try to find another way in. The BBC lied and told us it was on a road declared safe – but it wasn’t. It was a side road. And why would anybody trying to get away from the war down a busy road turn off down a side-street towards where the fighting is ?.
The crew – along with those which fired at Jeremy – have just a few seconds to decide before they might be the ones cooking off inside a tank. If a car follows you in a war zone, stops 1200 yards away and starts assembling some equipment then they were absolutely right to engage it. It was 100% Bowens fault his driver got killed.
I agree that the BBC should have retired him from any front-lines – let alone allow him to keep reporting against Israel like he has been. It seems likely he has been pulled out because he has gone Colonel Kurtz and seriously damaged the BBC’s reputation in the eyes of those who do not know what they are really like. His recent reports have been erratic – extreme empathy one minute then writing in the first person as if it’s all about him.
For the rest of us, he’s just one of many like him – but stands out because he’s clearly not quite normal (like Sopes).

Do I detect a ‘pivot ‘ comrade Robinson was interviewing an apologist for Islamic Hamas . He said “ Hamas – a group which the world regards as a terrorist organisation ….” I dropped by mug of tea ( bone China ) and thought – wow – the BBC is now going to regard a terrorist gang as a terrorist gang …. Is that true ? Surely either it is or it isn’t ……
Also … Robinson almost got his hankie out when talking about 9 year old hostages being released by his favourite terrorist group – what does he care about Israelis ? He and his gang have been excusing Islamic Hamas both before and after the slaughter ….
I wonder if we are going to hear the bbc describe Islamic Hamas as terrorists.? …..
I’ve got a great idea for all those Islamic Hamas supporters polluting the streets today – why not have one of those scarfs – half Israeli flag – half Palestinian flag – like they have in those ‘luv in ‘ footy games like rangers – Celtic or spurs – arsenal ….. I’m sure it would work …
Toady again
Today is one long advert for something called ‘doctor who ‘ – some woke tickbox nonsense being vomited out again by the bbc – one of their many formats flogged to death long after it was any good …..
…. I think the latest iteration is that swivel eyed Scottish lefty bloke who will probably be Idris by Christmas Day …
Viewing figures will plummet (hopefully). It’s well recorded that Jay Blades is not a favourite of mine, but watching a few afternoon episodes of Repair Shop, and I just want to give him a slap.
Apart from his “allo” and “wots dat for” and
“is mum/dad still wiv us”, its his manner to get the repairers to come forward “Kirsten can you come ‘ere a minute” ., or “well done, dats wot I like to ‘ear’ “.. Praise indeed from a cr.p upcycler. I bet those skilled artisans grin through gritted teeth at their front man. But if dats wot de BBC wants …….
I agree. It is intolerable seeing this ignoramus acting as the “foreman” for such skilled artisans, as if he knows more than them. His only skill seems to be dripping paint down chair legs, but something about him appeals to BBC management. What on earth can it be?
Please please can the writer on this site who many months ago produced a photo of a wheelchair-bound black woman with a pride flag outside the Tardis please re-post.
Thank you in anticipation.
Sad news
The mail reports that someone called ‘huw Edwards ‘ is not to return to the BBC after allegedly paying a teenager for sexy pictures …. Poor Huw will suffer the fate of many other overpaid bbc drones – cast out to Classic FM ……
Well, the first thing I want to say is that Black Friday isn’t a British thing! I just wanted to clear the air with that before getting into this morning’s press review.
Our left-leaning media like to refer to what they term the cost of living crisis
The overtly Labour-supporting Daily Mirror, conspicuous by its absence from the BBC online press line-up this morning, is nevertheless available via its website – where it excels itself in Dickensian levels of heartstring-pulling sentimentality for the poor (all be they always with us): Single working parents and Brits living with disabilities terrified after Autumn Statement
Brits..? Presumably inserted lest you imagine recent immigrants are over represented in our benefits claimant numbers.
And just before Christmas…
T’was Christmas Day in the workhouse,
The snow was falling fast,
We don’t want your Christmas pud, Go stick it up your… give it to the Bible class
Talking of the cost of living… from the people who brought you: What next for the Glen Coe cottage tainted by Savile? The cottage has been repeatedly vandalised since the paedophile TV presenter died… The Dame Janet Smith review, published in 2016, identified 72 victims of Savile in connection with his work at the BBC, including eight who were raped. (BBC)
How’s about this then, guys an’ gals…?
‘£200 licence fee by end of the decade’ (Telegraph)
I know that still to be going on bashing the BBC over Savile is hitting them a bit below the belt – or the elasticated trackie bottoms
Matt in the Telegraph is our favourite newspaper cartoonist – the Guardianistas having a habit of having to bin theirs’ on a regular basis: The Guardian fires longtime cartoonist after allegations of antisemitic imagery… newspaper has fired longtime editorial cartoonist Steve Bell after refusing to run a caricature of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that critics said drew on antisemitic imagery. (AP); When is one antisemitic cartoon too many? That’s the question Guardian editors should be asking themselves after the newspaper was forced into a retraction this weekend over cartoonist Martin Rowson’s latest hideous attempt at satire… (Honest Reporting)
Matt gets somewhat edgy with his offering this morning going on a Black Friday riff, picturing the Home Office shop window offering the British public: “Black Friday Deals Migration was 607,000 Now Only 745,000”
Our new Home Secretary shrugs his shoulders and seems to say, despite Braverman, despite record hyper-immigration, that it’s going to be business as usual: Cleverly warned that leaving the [ECHR] convention would jeopardise “key co-operation” with international partners including France, Albania and Bulgaria (Telegraph)
Heaven forfend we offend the Bulgars
The accusation is of course that our un-elected PM Rishi Sunak is running the UK not as a nation but rather as what he himself terms an ‘economic zone’ and that he is fashioned more in the mould of a regional district manager than a national leader. His policies favour the wider international corporate group, not the local British branch and its native population.
Remember folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory, if it’s true.
From having to accept Black Friday is now a thing to scotching false rumours of a white Christmas
Will there be frost and snow this weekend? – our BBC run an entire debate article on this question.
You might have heard rumours that cold weather and snow are in the outlook. It is certainly true that temperatures are set to tumble by the end of the week (BBC) – despite global warming? Rumours of snow… that will have been on the frontpage of the jokey blokey Daily Star
Don’t you go trusting your lying shivers suggests our Beeb: None of what is heading our way is unusual for late November – but it will feel like a big change from what we have had so far this autumn. (BBC) – any chance the BBC will apply that sensible metric to summer’s warm weather?
One point though – are we really allowed to call the fake price-rise/drop day, ‘Black Friday’?
I only ask, because we have some sort of multi-coloured day for Mother’s Pride, a Red Letter Day for the times when the banks cock up your account, a Blue Day was a tune by The Shadows, a Green day is the special moment when Brighton celebrates being over-woke, and so on…
But ‘Black Friday’ must be verboten in the cubicles, because there are hopefully, lots of offended victims!
I believe “Black Friday” was originally when Zombie knives and sub machine guns were on special offer in Tower Hamlets.
As with all these things though, it has now been hijacked to include twenty percent off kitchen knives, skunk weed and crack cocaine in Hackney and Lewisham.
With a new buy one get one free offer of twenty minutes with a drug addled, toothless 25 year old crack addict in a back alley in Lambeth.
If ever there was an opportunity for a newish political party to make a huge statement that grabbed attention and would be turned into millions of votes within a year , this is that opportunity. Adoption of many of Wilders policies would be a short cut to winning a few million votes.
The Reform web site doesn’t have immigration control in its top four policy pledges . It’s about number six. The policy is for Net Zero immigration only allowing in those folks who will be able to contribute to our society. But why not say that actually a fall in population would be acceptable if insufficient qualified migrants came forward.
Also It’s doesnt state specifically how such a contribution will be measured. Perhaps you need to have a job paying over 50k or even 100k , ie brain surgeon, or fully qualified engineer, before you are allowed in. Nor is there any language test for family members etc , nor a statement regarding assimilation.The immigration policy needs to be vigorously tightened up on these points.
There doesn’t seem to be any policy on combatting Islamification . I’m sure banning any new mosques , any bin bag wearing in public , any bendy knee praying in the open , would be welcome as would being able to openly mock all religions . Banning any form of law other than what is on statute would certainly win votes.
Double – I think the problems that have been ‘baked ‘ into the UK public are so deep as to kill any party which might want to reflect the desires ( common sense ) of the majority – eg the lefty anti British education establishment – the huge number of welfare addicts – so many millions on permanent benefits – plus the over arching ‘sin ‘ of racism ready to be thrown at anyone trying to control the Islamic enemy . …..not forgetting – of course the Far Left media ….
Blighty its’ way to being a failed state ….. and certainly for the vast majority a far poorer one on all levels ….
Yes the decades of indoctrination is a major hurdle . Hopefully if there is a significant shift in the EU towards taking a very hardline on mass immigration and a strong push back against islamification even the sleepy Brits will awake from their slumber and start to follow suit.
The ‘liberal open borders ‘ fools in Brussels,the MSM etc will try to head off the anti Islamification surge in the EU but it is gathering great momentum and many hitherto liberal’ politicians are recognising it is necessary to change their positions or lose very heavily at election time. Will the liberals be able to resist such a widespread movement? We shall see over the next few years.
I love the irony of liberals defeated at the ballot box claiming that they will continue to defend democracy by opposing everything that the elected government proposes.
Of course they will try everything to hang on to power. Election fixes , forming unstable coalitions to keep ‘populists’ out, MSM smearing or using the law to close down parties that they fear , which has been threatened in Germany regarding the AfD. But electorates are now much wiser to such tricks and they are less likely to work.
But will they use the ultimate weapon , political assassinations? Time will tell, a lone gunman with mental issues kills a President and is then killed within 24 hours. We have seen that one before!

Not sure by whom, and certainly not the BBC, but given your tendency to post simply links from unheard of sources, has this headline been verified and/or put in context?
Why don’t you just open the links. You do know how to press a button on a keyboard. I assume the only sources you have heard of are from the mainstream media.
I’ve asked ‘Dickie ‘ before to give some context to putting up links – but it seems I’m being ignored …. Some might start ‘disappearing ‘ – without notice as sometimes I’m ’Fedup ‘ …
Hellfire, It’s just sunk in about Philip’s post earlier, where The Speccie states that since 2021, the hated Beeboid income tax has diminished by £238,500,000!
That’s an awful lot of Linker-price wages, not to collect each year! Perhaps they ought to look at the business model of a normal private company, and see what they do when 1,500,000 customers decide that the products aren’t doing at all well…
I know what I’d do for a start, but there again, I don’t live in the bubble of fabulous tax-payer’s money, moronic programmes, and ridiculous, unearned ‘sleb’ status for every little presenter and newsnight teaboy!
I guess they’re all hanging on until Labour get in next year, and they’ll be safe for another ten years! Starmer and Abbott will let them off the hook, just as they will with every other leftie local authority who overspent for the last decade!
Scroblene – I think there is about 21 million licence payers – being eroded at a million a year – quite a while to go – but I think it’s getting so bad that non payment will go up a lot ….
Even die-hard local friends and other citizens, who pay the tax from meagre pensions, tell me that they never watch the dross churned out by the Cubicaloids!
Labour will indeed save the BBC but it will do so by putting the BBC’s funding on a general taxation bill one way or another. It may get a block grant from the government, or it might be a charge on council tax or on Internet bills , but which ever way they choose to do it it will be unavoidable.
Consequently the BBC will just get more and more left wing, internationalist and anti British , pro immigrant until ,if we are very lucky , a right of centre government comes to power and privatises the foul corporation.
Scrobie, excellent post. I think the current D-G is a case of a misplaced, misrecruited individual and may resign soon to spend more time with his pension and accumulated fortune at the Tellytaxpayers expense. Hopefully some more people of the Jewish persuasion will be cancelling their TV Licence DDs after last week and today.
Yes, Davie’s pension will be up there with the rest of the useful idiots’ great fat lump of unearned money!
Just a thought, but as Linker claims he is a ‘private company’, does his Beeboid pension not apply? Surely he’s been given enough taxpayers’ money for his pretty mediocre stuff, and now his idiotic leftie tantrums allowed by Davie and Offcom?
Perhaps he can also claim to be Jewish, not just tinted, to raise the stakes a bit…
‘Officials said that more than 75 Iranian-made Shahed drones were fired at the capital, and 74 were shot down.’
Really ?. Do you think we were born yesterday BBC ?.
‘As ever, even if a missile or drone is intercepted, the falling debris can be lethal too.’
About as lethal as if they didn’t actually shoot it down eh BBC ?.
This is the first conflict I’ve ever heard about where all the damage is done by ‘falling debris’.
Who actually believes this rhetoric on a scale Geobbells would be proud of ?. The BBC are certainly happy to do their part and keep reporting it as if it is fact.
I thought Russia had run out of drones and missiles anyway. Where did these come from ?.

TOADY Watch #1 – in which Nick Robinson gives an impression of being .. er .. a complete toad.
Warts and all, what more could you want from the BBC and TOADY? Israeli hostages released by Hamas; Nick was at pains to point out that the terrorists helped the Israelis to the waiting bus. In exchange, the Israelis are releasing women and teens (cover for fighting age young men?) but then Nick compounded his toadyish BBC ‘love-in’ with Hamas by pointing out that not all the Palestinians released from Israeli jails were convicted of crimes. Many were innocent until proven guilty because they were on remand for crimes that a jury might not eventually convict them. I switched off in disgust at that point.
I wonder now if the D-G will have the guts to discipline or sack a presenter? Robinson deserves it for this alone.
Not sure what they are – Satan worshippers – maybe… (apply Hanlon’s razor) but by their deeds shall ye know them (Matthew 7:16) – the Democrat leadership and the crew behind Biden are thoroughly evil.

“Revealed: Suspect in Dublin stabbing was charged with knife possession in May this year… but never convicted
The chief suspect arrived in Ireland from Algeria more than two decades ago. He has been an Irish citizen for more than 10 years and was known to gardai.
The man, who is in his late 40s, has come to Garda attention several times in the past year. The latest incident involved possession of a knife, as well as criminal damage to a car in May.
He was taken to court on the charges but did not receive a conviction. The Mail understands he was not convicted due to a mental health report given to the court.
Z, add another well, three deep holes the BBC have gotten themselves into on that particular story. The BBC lied to us; he has been an Irish citizen for 20 years and they di not tell us he had been in trouble with the Garda. Nor did the BBC mention he was Algerian. Oh dear, shame its three deep holes in the BBC’s news reporting, I would have prefered three strikes and the D-G is sacked!
This is a dangerous mix of truth and untruth. He is correct in his history but not in his descriptions. Private money? Even back in the time of Christ when Jesus was asked should we pay taxes to Rome Jesus asks for a coin, and holds it up and asks whose head is on the coin, Caeser they answer, and the render unto Caeser.
Yes Inflation is government sanctioned theft, but it is created by squandering government printing money to satisfy their voters.
Bitcoin is backed by nothing at all. Coinage in the past did have intrinsic value as it was made from silver or gold and the countries who kept to a gold standard suffered very little inflation until the 1970s when Nixon took the world off it.

Thousands of BLM and Shia Muslims allowed to protest supported by our muslim mayor, but others ? nope, police with batons out for the rest of us.
” London Demonstrations
Why did the Metropolitan Police take vastly different approaches towards protestors in different demonstrations in London over the last few weeks?’
Answer
Date: Monday 26 October 2020
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Good morning. The right to peaceful protest is a vital part of an open and democratic society and I have always been clear about my support for peaceful and lawful protests.
The MPS has operational independence on how it polices protests and I have confidence in the Commissioner [of Police of the Metropolis] and her team. London has one of the most experienced police forces in the world at dealing with public events and disorder. I know that the Commissioner has worked very hard to make sure people are still able to peacefully and lawfully protest whilst remaining mindful of the potential impact this has on the spread of coronavirus. I want to take this opportunity to thank the police who have been working tirelessly throughout this pandemic under extremely difficult circumstances to prevent disorder and to keep us safe.
Managing protests has been particularly challenging during this period with the rules around gatherings changing repeatedly. Since 20 August [2020] national legislation changes have meant that gatherings of more than 30 people have been banned. Some gatherings are exempt from this but the organisers must carry out a risk assessment and make sure that all reasonable measures to limit the transmission of the virus are taken. The police plan for and respond to each protest based on the intelligence available and the specific situation they face, taking into account the latest rules. Each protest or demonstration is reviewed on its own merits. There is no one-size-fits-all response to public order.
Highly trained public order Commanders make up the gold, silver and bronze command structure for any public event. Prior to the event, the gold command sets the strategy for the policing style that will be used, based on the intelligence available to them. On the day, this structure is supported by the special operations room, otherwise known as the Lambeth Room. This is the central hub at which all pre-planned and spontaneous events are managed and co-ordinated. Fast-paced operational decisions are made by silver command on the ground, taking into account the impact their decisions will have across the capital. Their decisions are supported by bronze command, who usually have geographical responsibility of the area within which the event is taking place. Debriefs take place with the command teams and partners as standard to review where improvements can be made.
David Kurten AM: OK. Thank you, Mr Mayor, and good morning. You mentioned that there have been a lot of demonstrations over the last few months and there certainly have been. I have been at many of them. I was at the three different freedom rallies that took place in Trafalgar Square on 26 August, 19 September and 26 September [2020] and I spoke at one of them on 19 September.
I was quite shocked particularly by the behaviour of the Territorial Support Group (TSG) riot police on the 26 September because the demonstration was absolutely and completely peaceful, unlike some of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) demonstrations where police were attacked, a woman was thrown off a horse, flares were lit and the flag at the Cenotaph was burned. That happened at the BLM demonstrations. On 26 September columns of riot police waded into the crowds, batons drawn. People were injured. People’s faces were bloodied. A woman was pushed off her chair. That, to me, is unacceptable behaviour from that unit of the MPS. Who gave the order for that to happen?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, I just do not know about the facts. I am not sure if I can accept the premise and the facts as set out by the Assembly Member. I actually ‑‑
David Kurten AM: Would you accept that that is acceptable behaviour by that unit of the MPS?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, I gave quite a full answer explaining how operationally these things work with gold, silver and bronze and the experience of individual Commanders. If the Member has particular issues or a complaint to make about police conduct on that day, I suggest he takes them up with both the MPS and the IOPC, which is the appropriate thing to do rather than to use this forum. I am not abreast of the facts and I cannot determine ‑‑
David Kurten AM: What I can ask you about is your tweets because on 26 September you tweeted:
“This is unacceptable. I urge all protestors to leave now. Large gatherings are banned for a reason – you are putting the safety of our city at risk.”
That was you. On the BLM demonstration, you put out a statement saying, “I stand with you and I share your anger and your pain”. They are completely different messages you put out about the BLM one, at which actually there was a lot of violence. You seemed to support it but the other one, the entirely peaceful demonstration, the freedom rally, you said it is not acceptable. Why did you put out the different statements there?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, the Member is in danger of not telling the entire picture, which is that since 20 August, which is the after the BLM demonstrations that are being talked about, national legislation has changed, which has meant that gatherings of more than 30 people have been banned save for specific circumstances. He also omits to mention that on 26 September, nine police officers were injured at that demonstration. It is really important to tell the complete picture rather than cherry-picking some of it.
David Kurten AM: Sorry, Mr Mayor. Those nine police officers would not have been injured if they had not waded into the crowd.
You mentioned 20 August. Let us look at last week because last weekend there was a rally of 3,000 Shia Muslims gathered in Marble Arch for Ashura and marched up Edgware Road. Then, on Sunday, the next day, there was another gathering where, again, a large crowd of Shia Muslims gathered at Marble Arch for Arba’een and marched down Park Lane.
Are you saying, then, on the basis of what you have just said, that large gatherings should not be allowed? Why were those demonstrations allowed and why did you not say anything about those whereas you did say something about the 26 September freedom rally?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): I do not have those facts with me, Chair. I am happy to take them away and get a response sent to the Member offline.
David Kurten AM: Fine. You should be consistent, Mr Mayor, if you are putting out the message there. There is one thing that was very disturbing also about 26 September, which was later on in the day. A very well-respected German doctor, Dr Heiko Schöning, who is the Chair of the World Doctors Alliance, was arrested in Speakers Corner just for speaking the truth about coronavirus. I might not agree with you but certainly I would agree with what he says. Why was he arrested? He was held for 22 hours without charge by the police for speaking at Speakers Corner. Do you agree with that, Mr Mayor?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, we are in danger of becoming ridiculous with me being asked about individual cases. The MPS deals with more than 2,000 protests and demonstrations a year. In 2018 there were 2479 and in 2019 there were 2,491. Up to now [in 2020] we have had more than 1,500. If there are any particular cases for which the Member is concerned, rather than raising them at MQT, I am more than happy if he writes to me in advance or speaks to me or gives me notice. I will get the facts and I am happy to debate them.
David Kurten AM: Mr Mayor, it is not ridiculous at all because you are the Mayor of London and you are the Police and Crime Commissioner for London. These are all cases that have had high recognition and that a lot of people are concerned about, but I see that you are not able to give me any answers about that at the moment and so I will have to end my questioning here and hope that you can explain those incidents to me in a letter. Thank you.

BBC hands out 100 million letters for non-payment of the TV license!
I read in last thursdays newspaper: Daily Express. (Nov 22nd)
Also found here (with links to other news sources reporting same)..
https://www.cordbusters.co.uk/tv-licence-fee-bbc-millions-letters/
It made me wonder….why are they so desperate?.… Surely IF they were so globally ‘SUCCESSFUL’ (as BBC always claim it’s the world most ‘trusted new network’, then why do they have to threaten everyone in the UK those with anyTV set to force pay for BBc channels.? And hopelessly chase those that NEVER will watch the BBC, or cannot pay – or too old, to pay for it?. Surely if the BBC is soooooh! damn good, many flush rich people would happily pay MORE for it here and globally -the demotic marxist and soft fluffy liberals. Why is it just the UK that is FORCED to pay for all of it? Cannot the DAVOS ‘globalists’ pay for it themselves perhaps? Are they rather short of money for hotel bills?
During COVID lock-down Tim Davie stated (during last BBC charter renewal): that the BBC as ‘vital to the nation as the NHS’. And we all know how badly the NHS is run and its almost total failure and vast expense. And during lockdown, many hospitals were actually closed. The BBC claims were totally for ‘lockdown’ (forever) probably co-inciding with ‘net zero’, climate change and joy-of-joys, how much better we would all be back in the EU as one big happy family with Islam sharing the spoils. A liberal dream.
So the BBC problems run deep. If they lose the cash cow charter they are finished.
The Spectator:
“The news for Davie here is unremittingly grim. The number of people who pay the statutory licence fee dropped by 700,000 in 2021, 300,000 the following year and another 500,000 this year. Audience figures for Radio 4 fell by 1.2 million year on year, after a previous decline in September 2022, while BBC Scotland’s audience figures dropped by 38 per cent between 2020 and 2022.
As an example: BBC ‘Newsnight’, which in the first years had audiences approaching one million and now struggles by with a third of that. Similarly, ‘Question Time’ has seen its viewing figures almost halve since the pandemic…”

Reality shows.
The efforts to make the BBC ‘relevant’ now rest on just two shows and ‘Gary’s’ twitter feed..
The BBC greatest hits. ‘Strictly Come dancing’ and ‘Dr Who’ (at Christmas) and the utterance of Gary Linekar, who they treasure, even the gaffs. Until he goes full ‘Carol Vorderman’ exemplify the problems the BBC have at BBC Faulty Towers, they will continually run out of money, no matter what they do.
Did I mention that the BBC have a £1.8 Billion pension fund shortage (2023)?
And that is why they need your money, to fill the treasure ship.
BBC’s pension bill rises to £2 billion (2013)
“The BBC’s pensions bill has soared to £2 billion, leaving licence fee payers having to stump up to meet the increasing costs that include six-figure payouts to bosses.”

Money, money money.
The BBC has an annual income of £3.8 Billion from the TV license fee, but thanks to its ‘commercial arm’, BBC Worldwide this can be doubled on a good year. It can even buy and sell its own TV programs (on freeview using its Ad revenue). This is creative accounting at its finest. And yet they are still broke.
The TV tax is free of all UK corporate taxes!, The rest is ‘commercial’ hidden away ‘off shore’ for ‘investment’. The TV telly Tax pays for the free spending BBC. They spend every penny on themselves. What’s ‘left-over’ they make ‘in-house’ tripe programs (such as ‘homes under the hammer’) and usually copied from US based commercial ‘daytime’ TV dross is standard. UK National radio (they have and own dross radio stations a plenty). It gets worse each year. They demand more money to improve it. They won’t, of course!, why should they?
The BBC broadcast Charter is the basis of all the BBC’s problems. Greed, (amongst other factors any public such state run public monopoly has, but the BBC has a license for it) The BBC gets paid for global influence. Soros, Gates and even the the EU itself). So the BBC does not actually work for us in the UK i.e. the TV license payer. It pretends and fobs you off with Dr Who and Strictly Come Dancing.
‘As bad as the NHS’ is the best you can say about this corrupt corporate body.

I watched the great William Hartnell in colour, but the BBC hopes a Black Dr Who will bring back its lost audience. Not progress but regression as William Hartnell’s ancestors left Africa 100,000 years ago. So a 100,000 year degeneration is expected for the Doctor.

I loved watching that, Rich. I remember it first time around.
I thought it was interesting to note that the Daleks have reappeared on Dr Who zillions of times since but I don’t think the Thals have ever featured again.
Although the Daleks were clearly Nazis in their ideology, it was the peace-loving Thals who actually looked like the Aryan ideal. Perhaps a black Dr Who could revisit them and inform them that they are a hideously white society. He could explain to them the benefits of diversity and advise them to adopt a policy of mass immigration.

“‘Racism is racism but not when it comes to anti-Jewish racism’: BBC accused of ‘underlying bias’ after news staff were banned from attending anti-Semitism march
‘Ruling’ for those in news, current affairs, factual journalism and senior leaders.
The broadcaster’s stance has been compared to its position on Pride parades in 2020, when director general Tim Davie told staff they were free to attend.
Critics of the decision claim that many BBC staff have attended pro-Palestinian marches in recent weeks. One of the corporation’s biggest stars, Gary Lineker, backed pro-Palestinian protesters marching through London on Armistice Day.
One source told Mail Online: ‘On the one hand they are saying that they’re not impartial on racism and staff don’t need to be but for some reason that we do need to be impartial on anti-Semitism. We can only assume that where this racism is concerned, Jews don’t count.
‘Many people here have been to the pro-Palestine marches and are happy to talk about it at work. People here seem to think Zionists are evil. One colleague said I was OK because I wasn’t ‘a proper Zionist’. They don’t have a clue.”

Leo Pearlman, co-founder of the TV production company Fulwell 73, told The Times that the corporation’s approach showed a ‘worrying distortion of reality and underlying bias’.
He said: ‘Just when one thinks the BBC cannot find a new depth of incompetence to sink to in their reporting and handling of these tragic last six weeks, they seem to have decided to draw a clear distinction between anti-Semitism and every other -ism with this directive to their staff.’
Another source told the paper: ‘If the BBC believes that racism is racism and not acceptable in any shape or form then going on a rally against anti-Semitism shouldn’t be an issue.’

Populist used to mean ideas that appealed to the broad mass of a countries population.
The BBC have simply re-engineered it to mean anyone who does not read The Guardian and is therefore an uncouth dolt and not to be considered as in any way worthy by the intelligentsia such as them.
The last time this mindset took hold by the intelligentsia it led to the French Revolution and many of those worthy talking heads parted company with their bodies thanks to populists!

The deputy chair of the Conservative Party tore into Britain’s national broadcaster over its political bias.
He compared the BBC to TV stations in authoritarian countries such as North Korea which “pump out propaganda on a daily basis” that is always pro-government.
Mr Anderson added: “But we have a national broadcaster that’s anti-government.”
The outspoken Red Wall MP has had a number of run-ins over the BBC, recently clashing with one of the corporation’s radio presenters after he was accused of dishonesty. He went on to ask the journalist 10 times if she had ever told a lie.”

It’s a much bigger problem than Lee claims. The BBC aren’t anti-government, they are anti-anyone who does not agree with their own liberal/left globalist agenda.
They are the new Nazis. They are modern fascists by the original definition : they oppress anybody they don’t agree with. They have got rid of all right-wing ministers and the astute observer will note how they NEVER report anything about the right-wing unless it’s negative.
This is how wiki describes ‘1984’:
‘It centres on the consequences of totalitarianism, mass surveillance and repressive regimentation of people and behaviours within society.’
That’s exactly what they are trying to do to the white majority using BAME as their weapons. It’s why they don’t care one bit about any BAME murders if whitey didn’t do it.

Israel-Gaza: Families’ relief as hostages released
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67524090
I have to say that I’m finding the tone and ‘celebration style’ of the BBC reports deeply disturbing.
It’s only 13. There are over 200 still being held underground in tunnels and constantly in fear of their life. They were kidnapped for this exact reason : to be used as human bargaining chips. Where is the criticism of the terrorists ???.
And when all 50 or so are out, those 200 or so will still be human shields held in apalling conditions. Nothing much will have changed at all.
I’m not sure what the BBC agenda is here. They always have one where Muslim terrorists are concerned. I suspect it’s to make everybody think how nice they all are and how bad Israel are when they restart their campaign to wipe out Hamas.
This is how they end the article:
‘Hamas took more than 200 hostages during a cross-border attack on southern Israel on 7 October in which 1,200 people were killed.’
240 hostages BBC. Why not give the number ?. And I see ‘innocent civilians brutally slaughtered in cold blood by terrorists’ has now been reduced to ‘people’.
‘Human rights organisations say the number of Palestinians held without charge in Israeli jails has shot up since the 7 October attacks.’
Which human rights organisations BBC ?. The usual Muslim/far-left ones like HRW who only ever get involved when it suits them ?. And what does ‘shot up’ mean ?. Is that supposed to be serious journalism ?.
A ridiculous pair of statements which have been given like that by the BBC for one reason : to imply there is some kind of moral equivalence between what Hamas did and what Israel have done.

Going by the below statement, there must be a hell of a lot of racists of all colours, who regularly mention the word “black” for example, including her, as she seems obsessed with skin colour, whilst doing her level best to appear as white as possible :
“Meghan Markle told King Charles there are TWO ‘royal racists’ who spoke about her son Archie’s skin colour ”

Would Markle have much to say if people speculated how ginger the kids were going to be?
Every family speculates what appearance their babies will have, will it look like Dad, Mum etc, black is just one characteric, take offence if you wish to be a victim and make a point.

Talk about invented victimhood.
Some of our best friends are a mixed couple. It seems entirely normal to wonder what colour their children might be, I strongly suspect they would wonder too.
just as you would wonder if a forthcoming baby is a boy or a girl. Would that be sexist?
I can’t for the life of me work out why wondering about a baby’s colour would be racist.

It’s an interesting fact that babies are often quite different in colouration to their parents, and change as they mature – the infants of some black parents are pink at birth, and a lot of ‘white’ babies are actually purple, or dark tan, both of mine were deep red.
Eye colour at birth is fascinating as well, lots of newborns have blue eyes that later darken to brown. Hair colouring is interesting too, children often have blonder/lighter coloured hair (even some black babies), which darkens as they get older, and straight hair turns wavy, or vice versa.
One of my aunts, of Western Scottish ancestry, has incredibly frizzy (think ‘Afro’) hair, which was carrot red when she was younger. I’ve noticed it on quite a few Irish and Scots women. Some claim it’s evidence of ‘black’ ancestry – I doubt it, all things considered.
There are countless different ‘races’ of humanity, most have some degree of mixture, and there is variation within each of those, there are dozens of ‘black’ races alone – there is probably more difference between some of the ‘black’ African peoples than there is between some who claim to be ‘black’ and most Europeans, and many in the US (and the UK?) who claim to be ‘black’ aren’t really ‘black’ at all – Obama and Markle, for example!
My wife and I are of varied ancestry, neither classically ‘English’, although we were both born and brought up in this country and largely of British ancestry. My wife could pass as Scandanavian or German, me as Jewish, or Italian. We, and family and friends, talked a lot about what our kids would look like – in the end, one like her mother, but with father’s green eyes, and one like his father, but with mother’s grey eyes.
We seem to be moving towards a point in time where it is considered completely unacceptable to comment on ANY differences between people at all, and won’t that be boring?

BBC reporters criticize broadcaster over its pro-Israel bias, coverage of Palestine
https://www.aa.com.tr/en/europe/bbc-reporters-criticize-broadcaster-over-its-pro-israel-bias-coverage-of-palestine/3063212#:~:text=In%20the%20letter%2C%20the%20reporters,in%20the%20Israel%2DPalestine%20issue.
‘In the letter, the reporters accused BBC of showing a biased stance in favor of Israel.’
Take a minute until you stop laughing. Then be concerned that these BBC staff are writing the news everybody else reads.
Reading between the lines, I think what they are saying is that the BBC is not biased ENOUGH against Israel rather than actually in favour of them.
‘The letter also pointed out that the BBC did not provide significant information to its viewers about the history of Israel’s occupation and the suffering of Palestinians.’
That sounds an awful lot like they are justifying the terrorist attack.
Apparently 8 have backed this letter though none of them admit who they are.
You can be 100% sure Bowen is involved – I would lay odds he is the instigator. I wonder if this is why he has been hauled back to the UK and silenced.
As I looked around for what Bowen is doing now, I found this:
‘During his coverage in Lebanon in May 2000, when the Israel Defense Forces were pulling out, his colleague and friend were killed. Their car came under tank fire from the IDF and his “fixer” and driver were killed. He later described the incident as the pivotal moment of his life.’
I think that completely explains his extreme anti-semetism. But not why the BBC allowed him to go there as an ‘unbiased and impartial’ reporter.

The Lebanon story perked my interest:
Bowens driver was called ‘Abed Takkoush’. His camerman was called Malek Kenaan. So we know which side of the fence Bowen was on.
Apparently:
‘Mr. Bowen and his crew drove through the newly abandoned ”security zone” toward the Israeli border.’
So some men in a car heading towards Israeli positions during a hasty withdrawal stop and he gets out and starts setting up a camera on a tripod and seems surprised people in an Israel tank nearly a mile away thought they might be Hezbollah setting up an anti-tank missile.
No wonder Bowen was upset : that blood is on HIS hands. No way he should have been in that location. Bowen should have been charged with murder for telling his driver to go there.

Must revisit the actual situation, but although it was roundly approached by partisans from both extremes, I believe the gunner was absolved by an investigation. Like Panorama does.
When it comes to fog of war, I have no experience and can only imagine.

There was a video the other day of a tank shooting a car which had sped towards it then was trying to turn around.
At first you think Israel went too far as it didn’t appear to pose any threat and was trying to get away. But the more you think about it, the more likely is was that it had Hamas inside. And if it did, it would just try to find another way in. The BBC lied and told us it was on a road declared safe – but it wasn’t. It was a side road. And why would anybody trying to get away from the war down a busy road turn off down a side-street towards where the fighting is ?.
The crew – along with those which fired at Jeremy – have just a few seconds to decide before they might be the ones cooking off inside a tank. If a car follows you in a war zone, stops 1200 yards away and starts assembling some equipment then they were absolutely right to engage it. It was 100% Bowens fault his driver got killed.
I agree that the BBC should have retired him from any front-lines – let alone allow him to keep reporting against Israel like he has been. It seems likely he has been pulled out because he has gone Colonel Kurtz and seriously damaged the BBC’s reputation in the eyes of those who do not know what they are really like. His recent reports have been erratic – extreme empathy one minute then writing in the first person as if it’s all about him.
For the rest of us, he’s just one of many like him – but stands out because he’s clearly not quite normal (like Sopes).

Do I detect a ‘pivot ‘ comrade Robinson was interviewing an apologist for Islamic Hamas . He said “ Hamas – a group which the world regards as a terrorist organisation ….” I dropped by mug of tea ( bone China ) and thought – wow – the BBC is now going to regard a terrorist gang as a terrorist gang …. Is that true ? Surely either it is or it isn’t ……
Also … Robinson almost got his hankie out when talking about 9 year old hostages being released by his favourite terrorist group – what does he care about Israelis ? He and his gang have been excusing Islamic Hamas both before and after the slaughter ….
I wonder if we are going to hear the bbc describe Islamic Hamas as terrorists.? …..
I’ve got a great idea for all those Islamic Hamas supporters polluting the streets today – why not have one of those scarfs – half Israeli flag – half Palestinian flag – like they have in those ‘luv in ‘ footy games like rangers – Celtic or spurs – arsenal ….. I’m sure it would work …

Rishi’s immigration policy hangs by the Bulgars
Well, the first thing I want to say is that Black Friday isn’t a British thing! I just wanted to clear the air with that before getting into this morning’s press review.
Our left-leaning media like to refer to what they term the cost of living crisis
The overtly Labour-supporting Daily Mirror, conspicuous by its absence from the BBC online press line-up this morning, is nevertheless available via its website – where it excels itself in Dickensian levels of heartstring-pulling sentimentality for the poor (all be they always with us): Single working parents and Brits living with disabilities terrified after Autumn Statement
Brits..? Presumably inserted lest you imagine recent immigrants are over represented in our benefits claimant numbers.
And just before Christmas…
T’was Christmas Day in the workhouse,
The snow was falling fast,
We don’t want your Christmas pud,
Go stick it up your…give it to the Bible classTalking of the cost of living… from the people who brought you: What next for the Glen Coe cottage tainted by Savile? The cottage has been repeatedly vandalised since the paedophile TV presenter died… The Dame Janet Smith review, published in 2016, identified 72 victims of Savile in connection with his work at the BBC, including eight who were raped. (BBC)
How’s about this then, guys an’ gals…?
‘£200 licence fee by end of the decade’ (Telegraph)
I know that still to be going on bashing the BBC over Savile is hitting them a bit below the belt – or the elasticated trackie bottoms
Matt in the Telegraph is our favourite newspaper cartoonist – the Guardianistas having a habit of having to bin theirs’ on a regular basis: The Guardian fires longtime cartoonist after allegations of antisemitic imagery… newspaper has fired longtime editorial cartoonist Steve Bell after refusing to run a caricature of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that critics said drew on antisemitic imagery. (AP); When is one antisemitic cartoon too many? That’s the question Guardian editors should be asking themselves after the newspaper was forced into a retraction this weekend over cartoonist Martin Rowson’s latest hideous attempt at satire… (Honest Reporting)
Matt gets somewhat edgy with his offering this morning going on a Black Friday riff, picturing the Home Office shop window offering the British public: “Black Friday Deals Migration was 607,000 Now Only 745,000”
Our new Home Secretary shrugs his shoulders and seems to say, despite Braverman, despite record hyper-immigration, that it’s going to be business as usual: Cleverly warned that leaving the [ECHR] convention would jeopardise “key co-operation” with international partners including France, Albania and Bulgaria (Telegraph)
Heaven forfend we offend the Bulgars
The accusation is of course that our un-elected PM Rishi Sunak is running the UK not as a nation but rather as what he himself terms an ‘economic zone’ and that he is fashioned more in the mould of a regional district manager than a national leader. His policies favour the wider international corporate group, not the local British branch and its native population.
Remember folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory, if it’s true.
From having to accept Black Friday is now a thing to scotching false rumours of a white Christmas
Will there be frost and snow this weekend? – our BBC run an entire debate article on this question.
You might have heard rumours that cold weather and snow are in the outlook. It is certainly true that temperatures are set to tumble by the end of the week (BBC) – despite global warming? Rumours of snow… that will have been on the frontpage of the jokey blokey Daily Star
Don’t you go trusting your lying shivers suggests our Beeb: None of what is heading our way is unusual for late November – but it will feel like a big change from what we have had so far this autumn. (BBC) – any chance the BBC will apply that sensible metric to summer’s warm weather?
As always, do draw your own conclusions.

Nice one as usual, AsIseeit!
One point though – are we really allowed to call the fake price-rise/drop day, ‘Black Friday’?
I only ask, because we have some sort of multi-coloured day for Mother’s Pride, a Red Letter Day for the times when the banks cock up your account, a Blue Day was a tune by The Shadows, a Green day is the special moment when Brighton celebrates being over-woke, and so on…
But ‘Black Friday’ must be verboten in the cubicles, because there are hopefully, lots of offended victims!

If ever there was an opportunity for a newish political party to make a huge statement that grabbed attention and would be turned into millions of votes within a year , this is that opportunity. Adoption of many of Wilders policies would be a short cut to winning a few million votes.
The Reform web site doesn’t have immigration control in its top four policy pledges . It’s about number six. The policy is for Net Zero immigration only allowing in those folks who will be able to contribute to our society. But why not say that actually a fall in population would be acceptable if insufficient qualified migrants came forward.
Also It’s doesnt state specifically how such a contribution will be measured. Perhaps you need to have a job paying over 50k or even 100k , ie brain surgeon, or fully qualified engineer, before you are allowed in. Nor is there any language test for family members etc , nor a statement regarding assimilation.The immigration policy needs to be vigorously tightened up on these points.
There doesn’t seem to be any policy on combatting Islamification . I’m sure banning any new mosques , any bin bag wearing in public , any bendy knee praying in the open , would be welcome as would being able to openly mock all religions . Banning any form of law other than what is on statute would certainly win votes.

Yes the decades of indoctrination is a major hurdle . Hopefully if there is a significant shift in the EU towards taking a very hardline on mass immigration and a strong push back against islamification even the sleepy Brits will awake from their slumber and start to follow suit.
The ‘liberal open borders ‘ fools in Brussels,the MSM etc will try to head off the anti Islamification surge in the EU but it is gathering great momentum and many hitherto liberal’ politicians are recognising it is necessary to change their positions or lose very heavily at election time. Will the liberals be able to resist such a widespread movement? We shall see over the next few years.
I love the irony of liberals defeated at the ballot box claiming that they will continue to defend democracy by opposing everything that the elected government proposes.
Of course they will try everything to hang on to power. Election fixes , forming unstable coalitions to keep ‘populists’ out, MSM smearing or using the law to close down parties that they fear , which has been threatened in Germany regarding the AfD. But electorates are now much wiser to such tricks and they are less likely to work.
But will they use the ultimate weapon , political assassinations? Time will tell, a lone gunman with mental issues kills a President and is then killed within 24 hours. We have seen that one before!

Ukraine war: Kyiv hit by biggest drone attack since war began

‘Officials said that more than 75 Iranian-made Shahed drones were fired at the capital, and 74 were shot down.’
Really ?. Do you think we were born yesterday BBC ?.
‘As ever, even if a missile or drone is intercepted, the falling debris can be lethal too.’
About as lethal as if they didn’t actually shoot it down eh BBC ?.
This is the first conflict I’ve ever heard about where all the damage is done by ‘falling debris’.
Who actually believes this rhetoric on a scale Geobbells would be proud of ?. The BBC are certainly happy to do their part and keep reporting it as if it is fact.
I thought Russia had run out of drones and missiles anyway. Where did these come from ?.

Warts and all, what more could you want from the BBC and TOADY? Israeli hostages released by Hamas; Nick was at pains to point out that the terrorists helped the Israelis to the waiting bus. In exchange, the Israelis are releasing women and teens (cover for fighting age young men?) but then Nick compounded his toadyish BBC ‘love-in’ with Hamas by pointing out that not all the Palestinians released from Israeli jails were convicted of crimes. Many were innocent until proven guilty because they were on remand for crimes that a jury might not eventually convict them. I switched off in disgust at that point.
I wonder now if the D-G will have the guts to discipline or sack a presenter? Robinson deserves it for this alone.

“Revealed: Suspect in Dublin stabbing was charged with knife possession in May this year… but never convicted
The chief suspect arrived in Ireland from Algeria more than two decades ago. He has been an Irish citizen for more than 10 years and was known to gardai.
The man, who is in his late 40s, has come to Garda attention several times in the past year. The latest incident involved possession of a knife, as well as criminal damage to a car in May.
He was taken to court on the charges but did not receive a conviction. The Mail understands he was not convicted due to a mental health report given to the court.

Z, add another well, three deep holes the BBC have gotten themselves into on that particular story. The BBC lied to us; he has been an Irish citizen for 20 years and they di not tell us he had been in trouble with the Garda. Nor did the BBC mention he was Algerian. Oh dear, shame its three deep holes in the BBC’s news reporting, I would have prefered three strikes and the D-G is sacked!

This is a dangerous mix of truth and untruth. He is correct in his history but not in his descriptions. Private money? Even back in the time of Christ when Jesus was asked should we pay taxes to Rome Jesus asks for a coin, and holds it up and asks whose head is on the coin, Caeser they answer, and the render unto Caeser.
Yes Inflation is government sanctioned theft, but it is created by squandering government printing money to satisfy their voters.
Bitcoin is backed by nothing at all. Coinage in the past did have intrinsic value as it was made from silver or gold and the countries who kept to a gold standard suffered very little inflation until the 1970s when Nixon took the world off it.

From 2020:
Thousands of BLM and Shia Muslims allowed to protest supported by our muslim mayor, but others ? nope, police with batons out for the rest of us.
” London Demonstrations
Why did the Metropolitan Police take vastly different approaches towards protestors in different demonstrations in London over the last few weeks?’
Answer
Date: Monday 26 October 2020
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Good morning. The right to peaceful protest is a vital part of an open and democratic society and I have always been clear about my support for peaceful and lawful protests.
The MPS has operational independence on how it polices protests and I have confidence in the Commissioner [of Police of the Metropolis] and her team. London has one of the most experienced police forces in the world at dealing with public events and disorder. I know that the Commissioner has worked very hard to make sure people are still able to peacefully and lawfully protest whilst remaining mindful of the potential impact this has on the spread of coronavirus. I want to take this opportunity to thank the police who have been working tirelessly throughout this pandemic under extremely difficult circumstances to prevent disorder and to keep us safe.
Managing protests has been particularly challenging during this period with the rules around gatherings changing repeatedly. Since 20 August [2020] national legislation changes have meant that gatherings of more than 30 people have been banned. Some gatherings are exempt from this but the organisers must carry out a risk assessment and make sure that all reasonable measures to limit the transmission of the virus are taken. The police plan for and respond to each protest based on the intelligence available and the specific situation they face, taking into account the latest rules. Each protest or demonstration is reviewed on its own merits. There is no one-size-fits-all response to public order.
Highly trained public order Commanders make up the gold, silver and bronze command structure for any public event. Prior to the event, the gold command sets the strategy for the policing style that will be used, based on the intelligence available to them. On the day, this structure is supported by the special operations room, otherwise known as the Lambeth Room. This is the central hub at which all pre-planned and spontaneous events are managed and co-ordinated. Fast-paced operational decisions are made by silver command on the ground, taking into account the impact their decisions will have across the capital. Their decisions are supported by bronze command, who usually have geographical responsibility of the area within which the event is taking place. Debriefs take place with the command teams and partners as standard to review where improvements can be made.
David Kurten AM: OK. Thank you, Mr Mayor, and good morning. You mentioned that there have been a lot of demonstrations over the last few months and there certainly have been. I have been at many of them. I was at the three different freedom rallies that took place in Trafalgar Square on 26 August, 19 September and 26 September [2020] and I spoke at one of them on 19 September.
I was quite shocked particularly by the behaviour of the Territorial Support Group (TSG) riot police on the 26 September because the demonstration was absolutely and completely peaceful, unlike some of the Black Lives Matter (BLM) demonstrations where police were attacked, a woman was thrown off a horse, flares were lit and the flag at the Cenotaph was burned. That happened at the BLM demonstrations. On 26 September columns of riot police waded into the crowds, batons drawn. People were injured. People’s faces were bloodied. A woman was pushed off her chair. That, to me, is unacceptable behaviour from that unit of the MPS. Who gave the order for that to happen?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, I just do not know about the facts. I am not sure if I can accept the premise and the facts as set out by the Assembly Member. I actually ‑‑
David Kurten AM: Would you accept that that is acceptable behaviour by that unit of the MPS?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, I gave quite a full answer explaining how operationally these things work with gold, silver and bronze and the experience of individual Commanders. If the Member has particular issues or a complaint to make about police conduct on that day, I suggest he takes them up with both the MPS and the IOPC, which is the appropriate thing to do rather than to use this forum. I am not abreast of the facts and I cannot determine ‑‑
David Kurten AM: What I can ask you about is your tweets because on 26 September you tweeted:
“This is unacceptable. I urge all protestors to leave now. Large gatherings are banned for a reason – you are putting the safety of our city at risk.”
That was you. On the BLM demonstration, you put out a statement saying, “I stand with you and I share your anger and your pain”. They are completely different messages you put out about the BLM one, at which actually there was a lot of violence. You seemed to support it but the other one, the entirely peaceful demonstration, the freedom rally, you said it is not acceptable. Why did you put out the different statements there?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, the Member is in danger of not telling the entire picture, which is that since 20 August, which is the after the BLM demonstrations that are being talked about, national legislation has changed, which has meant that gatherings of more than 30 people have been banned save for specific circumstances. He also omits to mention that on 26 September, nine police officers were injured at that demonstration. It is really important to tell the complete picture rather than cherry-picking some of it.
David Kurten AM: Sorry, Mr Mayor. Those nine police officers would not have been injured if they had not waded into the crowd.
You mentioned 20 August. Let us look at last week because last weekend there was a rally of 3,000 Shia Muslims gathered in Marble Arch for Ashura and marched up Edgware Road. Then, on Sunday, the next day, there was another gathering where, again, a large crowd of Shia Muslims gathered at Marble Arch for Arba’een and marched down Park Lane.
Are you saying, then, on the basis of what you have just said, that large gatherings should not be allowed? Why were those demonstrations allowed and why did you not say anything about those whereas you did say something about the 26 September freedom rally?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): I do not have those facts with me, Chair. I am happy to take them away and get a response sent to the Member offline.
David Kurten AM: Fine. You should be consistent, Mr Mayor, if you are putting out the message there. There is one thing that was very disturbing also about 26 September, which was later on in the day. A very well-respected German doctor, Dr Heiko Schöning, who is the Chair of the World Doctors Alliance, was arrested in Speakers Corner just for speaking the truth about coronavirus. I might not agree with you but certainly I would agree with what he says. Why was he arrested? He was held for 22 hours without charge by the police for speaking at Speakers Corner. Do you agree with that, Mr Mayor?
Sadiq Khan (Mayor of London): Chair, we are in danger of becoming ridiculous with me being asked about individual cases. The MPS deals with more than 2,000 protests and demonstrations a year. In 2018 there were 2479 and in 2019 there were 2,491. Up to now [in 2020] we have had more than 1,500. If there are any particular cases for which the Member is concerned, rather than raising them at MQT, I am more than happy if he writes to me in advance or speaks to me or gives me notice. I will get the facts and I am happy to debate them.
David Kurten AM: Mr Mayor, it is not ridiculous at all because you are the Mayor of London and you are the Police and Crime Commissioner for London. These are all cases that have had high recognition and that a lot of people are concerned about, but I see that you are not able to give me any answers about that at the moment and so I will have to end my questioning here and hope that you can explain those incidents to me in a letter. Thank you.

Whistleblower at Drax “sustainable” woodchip supplier… (going bust…)
BBC nowhere in sight….. “Green” lies from Drax rarely get challenged. There’s been claims before.
Hydrogen is the answer !! (if you’ve copped a wedge from taxpayers…. and spent a large slab of it with PR companies.) When hydrogen ain’t the answer the announcement takes some finding. That Humberside Hydrogen boondoggle comes to mind…
