The unelected PM is saying that the increase in the BBC licence fee won’t be as high as BBC expects – another lie ? Or maybe a suggestion the BBC becomes self financing ? Don’t pay for it . Keep your money …

Children – Don’t go breaking their hearts.

You don’t solve mass murder with petitions.
Who he ?
Commie sympathiser.
The absolute vitriol and near panic coming out of the Democrats in the USA over the threat of another Trump presidency clearly shows how warped they are.
They have even tried to tempt and encourage an assassination attempt on Trump.
How the public in the USA cannot see how absolutely filthy the Dems are just baffles me!
They will however finally get what they deserve.
This afternoon I was having a far-right cup of tea while reading a paper about the UN & WEF. It made me recall a 1980’s song. It’s not really a great song but the lyrics came to mind as they fit a possible future being planned for us at a global level. I can imagine people trying to hide out from the global state in an attempt to retain a normal life.
The song is Silent Running (On Dangerous Ground)
by Mike And The Mechanics
The lyrics (without posting the chorus multiple times);
Take the children and yourself
And hide out in the cellar
By now the fighting will be close at hand
Don’t believe the church and state
And everything they tell you
Believe in me, I’m with the high command
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
Can you hear me running, can you hear me calling you?
There’s a gun and ammunition
Just inside the doorway
Use it only in emergency
Better you should pray to God
The Father and the Spirit
Will guide you and protect from up here
Swear allegiance to the flag
Whatever flag they offer
Never hint at what you really feel
Teach the children quietly
For some day sons and daughters
Will rise up and fight while we stood still
Can you hear me, can you hear me running?
While searching for the lyrics I stumbled across this related detail on Wiki.
Peaking at number 6 on 8 March 1986 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, and number 1 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock Tracks chart, where it stayed for five weeks. It reached No. 21 in the band’s native United Kingdom.
The song was banned by the BBC during the Gulf War due to its address of war, nationalism and religion, as well as a direct reference to weaponry in the line, “There’s a gun and ammunition just inside the doorway.”
So it’s the early 90’s and Beeby was already banning certain things. I think the Gulf War was an excuse. The idea of normal citizens defending themselves with arms must have been repugnant to them even then. Whoever they were. It can’t be the same people as now put perhaps the ideologies were already entrenched.

Yes, a brilliant piece of music, one of my favourites. He should have never split with Phil Collins.
The BBC Has Now Seen And Heard How Hamas Raped And Mutilated Women In 7 October Massacre / BBC
News Finally! After 60 days. And the BBC still uses words like “appears to say” when shown a video of a terrorist admitting they were told to rape women!

I said in the last blog how I was amazed that the BBC put this up (for a few hours) then I see today it’s all about the poor Palestinians and “nasty Israeli settlers” which is headlined and goes up at prime time, and no doubt will stay far longer. It’s so they can claim “balance”
Usual snivel serpent ploy that, Lynette! Deny everything, cover up until found out and everyone has moved on, then drop a memo in the bottom of the mail cage, written in pencil with the wrong date etc etc…

“Lee was planning to pop the question in February next year”, what ashame
And dont forget
“Katie and Quinlan will at least be reunited over Christmas – just are unsure what the future holds”
bbc get a life, bigger things to worry about
I’ve only one word for those that are “upset” and “devastated ” by the new migration rules ….. tough.
If couples want to be together then go live in the partners country, simples if you’re thst desperate you’ll live in a tent on the beach !
BRISSLES
I would rather it wasn’t a British beach though.
Nine people shown on that page, and all have beaming smiles. Obviously not the problem we are told that it is.
“Cam, 28, told the BBC how he is already looking for a new home in London where his American wife can come and join him after four years of long-distance relationship.”
!Four years of long-distance relationship!

Fat chance quintessentially Blairite edition
Cleverly signs new Rwanda treaty in bid to get asylum policy back on track – observes the Financial Times.
Frankly, Rishi Sunak’s illegal immigrant asylum policy, just like his overall legal immigration policy, is to get it out of the news and kick it back into the long grass, where hopefully (from his point of view) the voters will forget about it.
Fat chance
Obesity is always someone else’s fault – comments Madeline Grant rather pointedly in the Telegraph
By their fruits you shall know them – so warned Matthew (7:16)
Ten senior Tories prepared to resign if PM presses ahead with hardline plan… on Rwanda (Telegraph) – threatening to resign if the PM adopts a certain policy – surely that’s a sacking matter?
It’s a done deal… New Rwanda treaty signed – reports the giveaway freebie Metro
Our mate Matt, in-house jester for the Telegraph, sketches the annual ritual of dressing the family Christmas tree and has pater familias mutter resignedly: “Christmas tree lights are like flights to Rwanda. You know they’re not going to work”
At this point Britain has sent more ministers to Rwanda than we have illegal immigrants.
The free advertising sheet Metro knows the score – having announced the Rwanda deal as its headline it runs the sub-header: But will it pass the UK Supreme Court’s verdict?
And even it does pass the Blairite legacy creation that is the so-called supreme court: PM has ruled out withdrawing from the European convention (Times) – and about that Rishi Sunak policy (or is it a non-policy?) the formerly patriotic Times seems rather relaxed: Sunak’s middle way on Rwanda – ah the middle way… how quintessentially Blairite
Our BBC reflexively intuites the meaning and purpose of the side show which is the official covid inquiry: Boris Johnson faces two-day grilling at Covid inquiry (BBC)

Because the entire point of the covid inquiry thing is to roast Tories who happened to be in power at the time with the Keir Starmer policy formula – sooner, harder, longer… Lockdown-wise.

Whereas a few more ‘good women’ of Marina’s stamp would presumably have had us and our children pointlessly masked up and locked down sooner, more strictly and for perpetuity…?

Israeli settler violence brings destruction and fear to West Bank as war rages
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67617920
Oh no. Bowen is back and just look at this ridiculous piece by our old friend.
Bowen has no problem whatsoever about presenting what the Palestinians say as conclusive evidence. This is a 100% propaganda piece with as much totally irrelevant empathy crammed in to make sure you agree who the bad guys are and who are the victims.
I’m sure these people are not treated well by the other settlers. And I’m 100% certain there are reasons. None of which are addresses by this outrageously lopsided piece. It seems that – according to Jeremy – Palestinians are peaceful folk who just want to farm and the Israelies are evil, violent thugs.
Experience and evidence tends to disagree with you Jeremy.
I thought the BBC might be trying to get their act together after the huge amount of criticism they have received for their bias against Israel. But no – it’s the usual Lefty ‘f*ck you’ to everyone else.
Bowen is a complete liability. It speaks volumes about the BBC that he is allowed to keep churning out his extreme Left activism. They can never be reformed. The cancer of Leftism runs right through the organisation. Why should we be forced to fund these activists ?.
Bbc Top talent and ace reporter Nick Robinson doing a turn on the today programme , radio 4 this morning. I hope that the BBC have a medical team on standby, Nicks excitement about Boris giving evidence to “the enquiry” is almost overwhelming him , he is orgasmic at the thought of Boris getting a kicking, somebody needs to slip him a sedative.
If only the BBC had been in charge,headed by Nick ,or any number of his mates , who always know what should have been done.
Much joy – the English girl footy team has failed to get to the Olympics . – so much gloom at the BBC – which is so desperate to make girl footy comparable to the real one.

They must have trouble getting anyone to say anything about illegal immigration – so they turn to creatures like David Gauke – who was thrown out of parliament with the rest of the remainer traitors at the last election – a fact naturally overlooked by the BBC
We all know the whole ‘stop the boats ‘ crap is a charade – they – the swamp – has no desire to stop the 3rd world trash washing up every day and adding to the troubles coming to the UK in decades to come …
Hello Fedup2
I watched an interest video on youtube the other day, about the French ignoring the UNHCR and sending home an illegal terrorist.

Unfortunately the lawyer mafia look for any angle to take taxpayer cash – ‘legal £ team ‘ = cash – £justice £ = taxpayers ‘ cash ….
…. The system encourages them to play the system – in the same way that welfare parasites do ….
The bbc often make me want to lose my breakfast, but todays story really is a doozie ;-
“Couples devastated by migration visa rule changes”.
Take a look. there are pictures featuring nine folks, or 4.5 couples. All white. All the kind of people you would gladly have settling and living next door.
I’m concerned more about the thousands of african blacks, average iq about 65, who march up the beach at dover intent only on sponging off the british idiots, raping the same, and stealing anything they can.
Ditto anyone who wants to stick their arse in the air five times a day, regardless of pigmentation.
Read the bbc though, and you’ll get a Goebbels-style lecture on why immigration is so wonderful.
The bbc really have no shame, and unfortunately their propaganda convinces a lot of the people I talk to on a daily basis.
Yesterday, I had to pick up some things in a couple of villages a few miles from here, and found my journey taking me through some absolutely fantastic Susex and Kent scenery, which is totally unspoilt and a breath-taking pleasure to see! On occasions, I’ve ridden my bike on some of the lanes, and still cannot believe the beauty we have, here in Great Britain! It was a fabulous journey!
Sadly, the reverie faded when I found myself wondering what would happen if all this was allowed to degenerate through the invasion of foreign religions and cults, which are duty-bound to crucify all our British values and creeds.
The potholes made more noise, the kerbs became more filthy and the oncoming headlights became more dazzling when I had to conclude that the bloody politicians we’ve had to endure since Margaret Thatcher was kicked out of her position as the real guardian of this country, have allowed all this to happen. The problems started when Blair decided to make the UK a puppet of all the forces designed to break this country down, with unfettered immigration, socialist dogma, an illegal war and outright lies to normal citizens.
It’s only got considerably worse with Brown, (the worst PM this country has ever had, and ‘given’ the job after Blair ran away), Cameron and now Sunak. At least Boris got us out of the mire – temporarily – with Brexit, but when Starmer gets in next year, the job originally set out by Blair will be a continuing shoo-in for the next ten years.
Somehow, I know deep down that my countryside trip will endure forever, but it’ll take many more years before the folly and deceit of the global socialist elite is realised. If towns and cities keep on welcoming foreigners with nothing to bring Great Britain, except an expectation of our generosity, then that’s their problem. I still put my money on the countryside’s ability to alienate these parasites, and any beeboids who are watching these comments will eventually understand that their task as a leftie gob-piece will lose them more fees than you can shake a stick at!
(Sorry, getting a bit romantic – got a cold)…
You talk to the wrong type of people. Almost everybody I ever mention the BBC to want to see them drowned in the slurry they produce.
Actually, you are certainly not wrong there, Moggie…
My trouble is, that I avoid all towns and cities – especially Mare Khaaan’s London, like the plague now, so I’m a pure bumpkin, and won’t ever meet anyone from these places to ask them!
Scrobs, we can take comfort – for now, that BAMES and their ilk do not want to reside in our sleepy villages – not enough “business” know wot I mean ? And there’s no one around to stab after the sun has set.
Fast forward a few years when developers have built new estates- future ghettos, alongside our sleepy villages and then we can truly say that Britain is finished.
Absolutely Brissles, then add to that, the ‘quota’ of foreigners hoisted on local authorities, who then demand developers make about 10% of the development affordable/LA hsg etc., on their proposed developments, and that way we’ll all get them chucked into the villages whether they work or not!
I have seen this happening here already, not in great numbers, but the chaos of Tunbridge Wells council seems to apply everywhere in the surrounding villages!
Sevenoaks used to have the right idea, and told the government to ‘sod off’, and private house prices went through the roof, but now they’ve had legal challenges to their refusals, the prices are slowing down!
Sunak’s name should be remembered every time illegal immigration is mentioned in every article, column and here of course! He’s just failed to stop it!
Sunak will never care – he’s an American – this time next year he’ll have moved his family to California and probably won’t ever come back – although he might turn up for that thing on the 11th November he might know about ….
Of course he will bugger off Fed!
Richmond was once a Tory safe seat, but a good thrashing by Reform could change that – if they get their act together!
BRISSLES ,
I have family in Gloucestershire and visit occasionally , There’s houses being built in and around most of the Villages at an alarming rate , won’t be long until all green fields have disappeared between Tewkesbury and Bristol with only the motorways separating them …..are they being bought by people fleeing the Muslim towns ?
Charlie, yes, my small ish village has seen 6 housing estate spring up in recent years ( so why is there a housing shortage if this is replicated all over the country), and there has been a clear surge of Eastern European languages heard in our small Co-op by mother’s with kids in pushchairs.
BRISSLES ,
Yes I’ve heard various non British languages when in my local Co-op , Lidl and other Supermarkets near me ……probably talking about how annoyingly white the other customers are !
This once Great Britain , oh dear my Parents would be mortified……that Generation didn’t sacrifice and Die for this end result .

The BBC seem to think that Alan Turing defeated the nasty Nazis single handed – a monumental misrepresentation and I’m fed up hearing it. It’s shallow, agenda led propaganda that’s insulting at best.
– but hey, that’s how the BBC rolls.
“Hidden behind five rings of barbed wire…”

Tomo – yes there’s a real fixation on Turing – not so much on the likes of Tommy Flowers – who – if I recall was from the GPO and even used his own money to build kit ….
All Tommy Flowers did was develop the world’s first programmable computer.
But he was straight and had two children.
So of no interest to the current BBC.
If only he had been BAME, like Isaac Newton.
Flowers was brilliant and shoddily treated.
The Hut 6 Story by Gordon Welchman is readable and enlightening.
Welchman was poached by the Yanks postwar and the establishment parasites really didn’t like that and really didn’t like his book.
John Tiltman, Bill Tutte and several others deserve to be as well known as the Turing that gets wheeled out as the biggest thing at Bletchley Park.
I live quite near to where Tommy Flowers lived in Mill Hill
in the North West London suburbs. Tommy lived in the
same same house off of Lawrence Street NW7 for
many years.
A friend of mine lived a couple of doors away from him.
A few years ago I recommended that a blue plaque
be put up on the wall of the house where he lived.
It’s funny because where I lived as a kid
in Courthouse Road N12 lived opposite me.
draughtsman Harry Beck who designed the iconic London
Underground map in 1933 . He has a blue plaque on his
house. Harry got £5 for his design !
Tommy Flowers the Post Office engineer who built
Colossus for Alan Turing . Who actually believed
that Flowers could not achieve this.
Flowers is with Turing probably one of two individuals
responsible for shortening the Second World Wat by
two years And saving hundreds of thousands if not millions
of lives.
There is no plaque for Tommy. He is remembered by the
Post Office and at Bletchley. Oh yes there is a Tommy Flowers
Mews in the Millbrook Park housing estate in Mill Hill.
And just as an appendage . Tommy had to use his OWN
money to build the first electronic computer !! I expect
that less than 1% of the population of the UK has even ever
heard of Tommy Flowers.
Just been reading that and was amazed at what a complete technical idiot their ‘security correspondent’ is.
‘In some areas we have to wear anti-static clothing, while in others we are shown a bewildering variety of machines. They include ones that make electronic circuit boards, laser cutters and 3D printers (labelled Darth Vader, Luke and Leia in a tribute to Star Wars).’
There is absolutely nothing ‘special’ about any of that. It is all commonplace in the smallest of businesses who male anything electronic.
It made me think about how BBC reporters are no longer required to have any skill, experience or knowledge about the things they write about. The only ‘qualification’ they need to have is the right politicial attitude and can put the correct message into their articles.
It’s because the BBC aren’t interested in accurate reports any more. Their entire objective is simply to pull people over to their political view. I notice many of their reports I check these days read like excited 6th former left-wing activists wrote them.
And the reason the BBC are obsessed with Turing is that he was gay !.
“There is absolutely nothing ‘special’ about any of that. It is all commonplace in the smallest of businesses who male anything electronic.”
Absolutely, much to the missus’ annoyance I have quite a lot of that in my hobby workshop at home! They should try taking a walk around the labs and workshops where I work… it would literally blow their tiny little minds… no, on second thoughts, please don’t.
“It made me think about how BBC reporters are no longer required to have any skill, experience or knowledge about the things they write about. The only ‘qualification’ they need to have is the right politicial attitude and can put the correct message into their articles.”
Again, spot on, however you forget all the other elements required to build enough points to obtain a ‘green card’ to work at the BBC these days, namely: gender, sexuality, skin tone, religion, age, preference for female attire… blue hair?
Talking about blue hair… in the local news:

“Is the Rwanda policy a vote winner? One High Street has its say”
First off, interesting choice of ‘random’ interviewees there, second off, I’m not sure the average inhabitant of Royal Wootton Bassett would be too happy to be told they now live in Swindon!
JohnC
Gordon starts out bewildered and it doesn’t get any better.
Engineers are menials as far as the BBC is concerned – where dim bulbs with Net Zero comprehension of matters to hand presume to opine (in a prescribed fashion) on engineering and other technical matters as if their shallow, ignorant opinion is the authoritative one.
“Battle of Britain: The schoolgirl who helped design the Spitfire”
BBC
Girls ended the war!
‘Hazel Hill helped her father do the calculations that meant Spitfires could be built with eight guns instead of four.’
So surely that BBC article should have been about her father ?.
That article starts with another BBC narcissist telling us how ‘her grandmother helped win the Battle of Britain’.
What makes me laugh about those pathetic BBC agenda pieces is how they are a whole heap of inferrence and very selective, out of context quotes with the subject of the piece mentioned in the middle of it all as if it all were in some way down to them.
Of course we get no information of what she ACTUALLY did. Which means it was trivial computational stuff to save her dad working it out. From what I can work out, she basically worked out the weight of guns + ammunition for various other aircraft.
So she did indeed help. But she was not critical in any way whatsoever. She just saved her dad a bit of time.
What is so wrong about it is that the BBC are simply not interested in the REAL heroes because they are white males. Who the BBC hate because they are all racist and sexist.
Africa started the first fire so started civilisation and climate change!
World demands Africa pays reparations!
If Alan Turing had been straight you’d never have heard of him.
And he couldn’t play chess!
Paah!
On BBC London last night, a feature about high rent levels for housing.
Interviewed was an erudite young man who revealed that he and his ‘boyfriend’ were struggling.
Amazing isn’t it. The BBC decide to interview someone who happens to be gay, tells us he is, and it survives the editing process.
Some might think this is part of a BBC agenda-driven narrative to positively discriminate on behalf of 3% of the population. But I’m sure it was just an innocent oversight.
Not BBC
Boris is at the covid enquiry today.
I went on to the covid website to see when it all starts.
Then I scrolled down to the bottom of the page.
Here’s the point.
The Covid website is available in 11 different languages !!!!!
Only 4 of them use the normal English alphabet. The rest are in Arabic, Chinese and the like. FFS.
That is the depths in the gutter to which the public sector establishment wallow in their own parallel universe of political correctness and ‘equality’.
I wonder how many on the cross channel rubber ferries have had covid and want to contribute? Quite a lot if there is money to be had……….from the taxpayer of course.
11am Uk time – I shall watch in a country far far away …. And they don’t sell popcorn …
Count the ‘sorrys’
Some lefty cretin has – according to the bbc – won something called the ‘turner prize ‘… I shall not be looking at his stuff – which quite literally going to be ‘crap ‘ but maybe next year a series of used dinghy’s may achieve greatness …
Seems that they might be another war in the offing ( what another one?©️this one is Venezuela versus Guyana …. I fear it’s one of those ‘where ?’ Jobs – I hope they don’t get confused and go for Ghana by mistake – up goes the oil price …
Do our government ministers actually watch the BBC TV and its news ?
“COP28: Is the world about to promise to ditch fossil fuels?”
NO! Simples.
Prenews is not news, it’s speculation
and BBC uses that to attack its POLITICAL opponents
They get their framing trickery in first.
BBC R Humberside “Boris will say something today ..so we’ll use that as an excuse to play that clip of someone saying Boris stopped studying science at 15”
BBC R Lincolnshire “Boris will say something today ..so we’ll use that as an excuse to play a clip of someone from Alternate Sage criticising Boris”
Boris Johnson currently being cross examined at the Covid inquiry by Barrister Hugo Keith KC. Keith’s attitude to Johnson and his line of ‘questioning’ (I use the word advisably) is extremely adversarial, Keith is, without doubt, out to get Johnson. Keiths ‘questions’ are attacking statements not questions at all. Full of lines like “the UK had the worst statistics in Europe” etc, unproven and unproveable.
The Inquiry is supposed to be just that, an inquiry not a grandstanding exercise.
Hugo Keith KC, Kentucky Chicken Lawyer tries to fry Johnson
I the Inquiry Chairman is obviously in on this, she remains silent while Keith does his thing.
Flotsam
I do find the whole thing very strange . It’s a game . Nut nut has all the information in his head ( incredible ) but he plays a game with the KC about what he is going to disclose and the way he goes about it ….
Do such inquiries achieve anything ? – particularly in the context that there is no ‘long term ‘ planning – and government is basically a roulette wheel of politicians with permanent secretaries fireproof and career driven . … a culture which follows throughout the civil service …
A heads up to a bit of media disinformation going on. The media loves to bash the Human Rights Act and perhaps with good reason, but as we have seen with France, the problem is not with the Human Rights Act as the media claims, but with the way it is drafted into UK law as superior to all UK laws meaning that the state has to follow it.
We cannot leave the Human Rights Act no matter what the media tells you. Although countries can do what ever they please the consequences of us doing so would destroy our economy so entirely the country would be unlivable. If even Russia can be a member it should tell you that something is not wrong with the HRA something is wrong with Britain itself.
And now onto the main disinformation. That the UK has been stopped from sending bogus asylum seekers to Rwanda because of the HRA – it hasn’t.
The decision by the Supreme court concerned refoulment which is a part of the Asylum treaty in which signatory countries agree not to return bogus asylum seekers to countries where their lives might be in danger. It can be argued the Supreme court took a contrary and unusual view in preferring an activist report over the foreign office one, but it is the final arbiter.
If we are going to leave anything it should not be the HRA, but the asylum treaty which is now being widely abused and provably so. This is a matter for the United Nations and not the EU or associated bodies.
So don’t believe the media when it talks about the Human Rights Act, they are promoting fake news here to distract from how awful the Rwanda plan really is.
To be honest I’m glad it’s been stopped in its tracks, because the deal is that not only do we pay to send them to Rwanda, we pay them to take them, and for every one we send there we have to give one Rwandan citizenship in return.
It’s a terrible deal for Britain only a Marxist Tory could have negotiated!
Thoughtful – I wish I could put money on it never ever happening ….. by the time the next version gets to court ( and struck down ) red labour will have killed it …
My alarm bell is ringing… Runnymede and Nuffield? Nuffield have their hands deep in bioethics and the vaccine passport cookie jar via the Ada Lovelace Institute.

The Covid enquiry is having a break.
So the BBC spend almost the whole time ‘interviewing’ a bunch of argumentative, grievous female sentimentalists.
Two of them got covid in March 2020. What EXACTLY could Boris have done to prevent those individual illnesses? Nothing. So why are they whingeing and why are they given so much air time? And the evidence so far, provided via the questioning by the lead counsel, haven’t even touched on that particular time yet.
So what we have are people who regard Boris as guilty before trial and have no other contribution to make. Aided and abetted by the BBC.
I am not a fan of Boris, who fluffed most of his opportunities, but get the guy for proven misdemeanours not pre-determined prejudice.
The Covid enquiry is having a break. = Champagne and treats at £300 a head! HA HA HA HA HA HA
I see the story about the pregnant woman getting stabbed has been suddenly dropped by the BBC.
It’s another fishy one : no description whatsoever of the woman stabbed and the 28 year old arrested ‘cannot be named for legal reasons’.
Welcome to 1984. We only get to know what we are allowed to know.
I suspect that if you quizzed the BBC/Far-Left/Globalists about their fascism and attempts for mental-conditioning of the public and compared it to a dystopian novel, they would say it’s not the same because their ends really do justify the means. As Hitler thought. And Pol-Pot. And Stalin.
Reach have no reason to complain. Our local paper used to actually be local, with local news, local reporters and local adverts. Now it’s clearly written by ‘journalists’, none of whom appear to have ever even visited the area, at typewriters in a locked room, generating Reach’s own clickbait agenda.

So it’s official. In the back of the new Rwanda treaty, under “Other Agreements”, is this:
“The Parties shall make arrangements for the United Kingdom to resettle a portion of Rwanda’s most vulnerable refugees in the United Kingdom, recognising both Parties’ commitment towards providing better international protection for refugees“
Note that there are no specified numbers.

Feeling slightly stunned by the coverage given to the pregnant woman stabbed (but still alive, no more details available despite witnesses) I discover this buried in the ‘London’ region page:
Sutton: Murder investigation begins after teenager stabbed
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67632512
Another very short, basic facts only report. A complete contrast to the woman who got a ‘live feed’ (which was abruptly dropped).
And I also discover this from yesterday:
Bermondsey: Man killed family of four in brutal attack – trial
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67613287
Where this man is on trial for murdering his girlfriend and her family (all black) while high on drugs and alcohol:
From what I can find, the BBC didn’t even originally report it until he was in court. And once again a short, basic facts only article.
Bermondsey: Joshua Jacques in court over four family members found dead
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-61223288
It all goes to prove what a complete racist farce the BBC and BLM really are. They don’t care one bit how many black people get murdered if they can’t blame someone white for it.
Diversity is our strength. Immigrants built Britain.

As I’ve said the ‘bar’ for killings seems to be getting higher – unless a killing meets the tickbox approval of the BBC ….

Been watching nut nut at the covid circus / white wash . I can’t think of anything he said which puts him in better stead – Definately over promoted – but sold so well to the voters playing the Buffoon … I was going to write ‘fool’ but he is too deceitful to be a fool ….
It was all Carrie’s fault! 350K for a speech?
My God, I just found the video for that ‘Black People Who Steal Rolex Watches’ article we saw yesterday.

Absolutely atrocious. First that total narcissist has herself in the video more than the black villains !.
And second it’s absolutely clear that all the interviews with the ‘criminals’ are totally fake. They are supposed to be a secret meet in a car – but just look at the perfect, careful lighting and how relaxed and confident the BBC narcissist is.
Exactly what I would expect from the BBC. Expect to see her soon on Panorama.
Marky – part of the problem is that there is no meaningful comparison with what other countries did – on timing – on restrictions – instead it’s just tunnel vision about the incompetence of nut nut and his number 10 set up .
I’ve worked at a fairly high level – the boss is extremely exposed if they don’t have good advisers – able to filter the options up to the boss rather than a scatter gun approach . I don’t know if Cummings was that man – but it seems his character wasn’t / couldn’t be tuned to the environment in which he was meant to work and achieve …..
In the end history will judge nut nut – and perhaps that will hurt him in the way he deserves

Hackney shooting: Victim named locally as Lianne Gordon
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-67637793
A Londonistan murder of someone black made the front page !!.
But of course the victim is female. And nobody has been arrested yet.
Watch the story disappear without trace very quickly after someone is arrested. Unless they are white of course, but there’s only a very, very small chance of that.

I love the way @thetimes attacks the BBC’s funding and programming from a lofty height without troubling to mention that The Times’s boss, Rupert Murdoch, has a huge political and commercial interest in doing the BBC down.
Thereby opening the floodgates of what the BBC gets up to in a #CCBGB orgy.
Surely by now the W1A black ops team are being briefed to cut his connection as every post digs a deeper hole.
With apologies to those from Newcastle and Sunderland:
I’ve just watched a coloured lady speaking for 11 minutes – it was suella braverman delivering her exiting speech in parliament telling blue labour that they face oblivion unless they urgently deal with the boats – ie derogating – withdrawing from any law or treating being used to block deportation .
I am going to tell you where the extra money will go to
when there is an increase in our TV tax.
I will be spent on sending a plethora of pundits
and commentators to cover women’s football matches
between the likes of Turkmenistan playing the Democratic
Republic of the Congo at the Olympics in France ! The
BBC is utterly obsessed with women’s football.
Great for women and girls to play football . Which at the
highest level is comparable to an under 15 years old
boys match. Played in the fields behind my garden.
And yes I can enjoy on a occasion watching a ladies match .
BUT BBC you need to be told that next to nobody will be
interested in watching Turkmenistan on our TV screens
when the Olympics. can you get this through your WOKE
heads !!!!!!

So Charles and Camilla might have wondered what shade their grandchildren might turn out.
Big deal, so would every grandparent have wondered about the appearance of their grandchildren, especially of mixed race.
But I can’t help feeling a tiny bit of schadenfreude that the uber woke globalist tree-hugger and defender-of-all-faiths should be subjected to insinuations of racism.
Just goes to show, you can never be pure enough for the woke mob.
So don’t even try. And never, ever apologise.
Perhaps he was wondering if Renault Megan would want to get the kid onto the advert circuit – they’d make a mint from the supermarkets!
Just see the badge, ‘Lidl Advert by Royal Order’…!
That goes for ALL activists vlad.
Whatever you do to appease them, it will never be enough. Their argument will just change.
And if they weren’t activists for this, they would be activists for that. They would protest about anything because their only desire is to confront people they do not agree with.
Their arguments are complete hypocrisy. They can argue in any direction for any subject when it suits them. They have the most stupendous double-standards. They just pick the one which suits them today. Their actual words are worthless.
They are – in general – shallow, spiteful, jealous, attention-seeking people who just love to hate. Like that fat woman who just got the boot from ‘Celebrity’.
That’s my opinion based on years of observation of them anyway :-).

This is what happens when the politics of activism meets the theatre of media absurdity.
Boris is a tool, but this whole expensive farrago was never about finding out valuable insights and all about scalp hunting for the tv hyenas
Huggy Bear has screwed the pooch for the team royally and ruined his reputation.
Except in media bubble world.
