I’ve listened to most of nut nuts’ testimony today . His main claim seems to be that either he didn’t know of the toxic incompetent culture of number 10 or thought it was good because it engendered good outcomes
I know it doesn’t really matter because it doesn’t change anything and will not make any difference for future problems – I bet next time there will not be enough PPE or body bags .
Nut nut referred to Hancock – I think he said he refused to remove him because he was a good communication ( liar ) and that it would look bad .
Theres a lesson here . When the likes of Hancock stand at a podium and tells us that a protective shield has been put round care homes you know it’s a lie . Same with terms like ‘world beating ‘ or ‘world leading ‘ = lies .
Back to nut nut . He admitted being asleep when covid came along – 5 cobras chaired by Hancock before nut nut got interested … too late …
I wonder what we did wrong to get such a succession of duff PMs ? Can there ever be a clever and wise one ? Or does the nature of the process to get up the greasy pole lead to defectives getting the job ?

Snopes claim it’s fake – though they don’t actually prove it. As usual they ramble on making you skip their explanation and just go to their ‘verdict’. One of their main pieces of evidence is from a BBC tweet!.
‘For instance, Shayan Sardarizadeh, a journalist at BBC Verify, called hamas.com a “fake Hamas website.”‘
For which google tells me (but Snopes doesn’t):
‘The surname Sardarzadeh is held by more people in Iran than any other country or territory.’

Labour controlled Birmingham City Council declared itself effectively bankrupt in September. A report into what went wrong includes the amazing comment that ‘the Council does not know exactly how many people it employs and where they fit into the organisation’. In other words, the Council is paying people who may not actually have a job or turn up for work.
Can anyone imagine a plc or private company getting itself into this state? And who are these ‘ghost workers’, who appointed them, and who is being paid to manage them?
There is a story here. No doubt the BBC will investigate.

Covid Inquiry
GBNews picked up on the use of fake statistics by Counsel Hugo Statistics, I commented on this earlier on. The unrelenting attack on Boris and the Tory Government continued. One of the ‘questions’ from Keith proceeded along these lines……………. Cummings suggested that Boris sack Hancock, so why didn’t he (Boris) sack him, why not? A clearly adversarial leading question, an attack on both Boris and the Government the answer to which is utterly irrelevant one way or another. It’s quite clear that the Chair , Rt Hon Baroness Heather Carol Hallett DBE, is quite happy for this nonsense to continue.
I’m somewhat surprised by Johnson. He seems a bit on the defensive and withdrawn, not his usual self. If I were Boris I’d tell Keith to F-Off.
The overtly political manner of this inquiry reminds me of the American legal processes against Trump.

This seems to sum up what many here feel:
“PETER HITCHENS: The BBC hoses us down with Left-wing propaganda. So if it wants to keep the licence fee, here’s what it MUST do:
Nobody gets fined for refusing to buy the Guardian newspaper, and a good thing too.
The Guardian is an estimable product, but plenty of us do not agree with its opinions or with its priorities. So we can choose not to buy it, or to buy something else.
Why then are we threatened with being dragged to court if we do not pay for the BBC, which is more or less the exact broadcast equivalent of the Guardian? And now the BBC wants us to pay even more to be hosed down with its incessant propaganda and unacknowledged bias.
There is a simple solution to the BBC’s demand for another increase in its licence fee. If it won’t even try to be impartial – and it is not trying very hard at the moment – freeze the fee which will then quickly dwindle thanks to inflation.
Some may say that it is wrong for one part of the media to seek restrictions on another part of the Fourth Estate. But this is to miss the point.
Newspapers make no claim of impartiality. Each day newspapers publish leading articles in which they express clear opinions on the major issues of the day, openly taking sides for all to see.
They tend to attract writers who broadly agree with their positions. And they tend to attract readers who do the same, though Conservative newspapers have a significant number of non-Tory readers, who like the product in spite of disagreeing with its politics.
The BBC is pretty much the exact opposite of a Fleet Street newspaper. Its money is forced from its users on pain of prison. It has opinions, but it pretends not to. And it recruits almost entirely from a section of society which agrees with these opinions.
Do not take my word for it. All this is in the open, if you look. Mark Thompson (then the BBC Director General) said in a 2010 interview with the New Statesman that the BBC had suffered a ‘massive bias to the Left’ (though he absurdly stated this had only been in the past). Roger Mosey, an unusually frank and honest former BBC executive, wrote soon afterwards in The Times that he broadly agreed with Mr Thompson.
Of course, the bias was not only in the past. It is constant and has been increasingly so since the fanatical social liberal Sir Hugh Carleton Greene took over as Director General of the Corporation in the 1960s.
This bias is not so much party political as general. BBC newsreaders do not suddenly cry out ‘Vote Labour!’ mid-bulletin. But BBC staff in general just find it very difficult to give a sympathetic hearing to the huge part of the population which holds socially and morally conservative views.
Here’s an example. I’d been having a number of impromptu conversations with Mr Thompson around the time he was in charge, as we often shared the same train. He had no answer when I said the BBC lacked presenters who would be prepared to give a really hard time to Clive Stafford Smith, the noted campaigner against the death penalty.
Although millions of British people support this penalty, the BBC does not contain a single significant man or woman who shares that view. On the contrary, they are all horrified by it. And it is easy to work out from that litmus test most of the other things they all hate, and what they all like.
If the confessions of Messrs Thompson and Mosey are not enough for you, bear in mind the public remarks of two former BBC star presenters. Andrew Marr described the Corporation at one of its own seminars as ‘a publicly funded urban organisation with an abnormally large proportion of younger people, of people in ethnic minorities and almost certainly of gay people, compared with the population at large’. All this, he said, ‘creates an innate liberal bias inside the BBC’.
John Humphrys wrote around the same time in the Radio Times: ‘The BBC has tended over the years to be broadly liberal as opposed to broadly conservative for all sorts of perfectly understandable reasons… The sort of people we’ve recruited – the best and brightest – tended to come from universities and backgrounds where they’re more likely to hold broadly liberal views than conservative.’
Perhaps the most hilarious such admission came from Roger Harrabin, for years the BBC’s main reporter on global warming: ‘I’ve never considered myself a climate-change sceptic.’ Nor did anyone else. The BBC’s complete abandonment of any sort of balance on this issue is one of its gravest failings.
Much more of this sort of thing can be found in the book Can We Trust The BBC?, a trenchant insider study of the Corporation from Robin Aitken, for many years a BBC staffer.
Left-wingers feebly counter all this by pointing to nominal Tories, such as Lord Patten, who have held prominent posts in the Corporation.
But the key word here is ‘nominal’. BBC Tories are almost invariably of the liberal, metrosexual, Remainer wing of the Tory party, token figures chosen precisely because the organisation knows that it is far easier to make such gestures than to embark on proper reform.
There are, and thank heaven for it, still a few BBC staff genuinely committed to impartiality. But my own direct experiences (vetoed by a high Corporation official as a panellist on BBC Radio 4’s Moral Maze, increasingly excluded from all kinds of programmes where I was once welcome) suggest that the BBC’s mind is growing narrower with age.
So here is what we do: A new body, let us call it the BBC Tribunal, is established. Nobody who has worked for the BBC should be permitted to work for it.
Its Charter is to include, at all times, representatives of the major political, social and moral currents in the country. Some of its members should be appointed (perhaps by a Parliamentary Committee to avoid direct government involvement), others directly elected by licence-fee payers in a poll from which political parties are banned.
It will establish a new Complaints Board, whose email and postal address will be broadcast at the end of every possibly contentious programme. This board will publish a weekly report of the numbers of complaints received for each programme.
All complaints will be seen and responded to by staff of the BBC Tribunal, within a month (under the current system, most complaints never get beyond the computers of Capita plc, which handles them for the BBC, though I suspect most members of the public have no idea this is the case).
If the complainant is not satisfied with the response, the complaint will be passed up to officials of the Tribunal, who will have powers to publicly rebuke the BBC for significant breaches of impartiality.
The impartiality rule should explicitly cover drama, often used as a propaganda vehicle, for example in favour of illegal drug abuse and abortion on demand by the BBC.
The Corporation should also for the first time become properly subject to Freedom of Information inquiries, losing much of the raft of protections and exemptions which currently make it almost impossible to question it about anything it prefers to keep quiet about.
And it should now publish the long-suppressed Balen Report, written in 2004 by former senior broadcast journalist Malcolm Balen, into its alleged bias over the issue of Israel. It has spent a small fortune of licence-fee money on legal actions to keep it secret.
It is simply not entitled to be a public body and to behave like this. Disgorging this document at last, especially now, would be an excellent symbol of a new era.
But if not, then even those of us who value the BBC (as I do) and want it to survive will find it hard to defend its costly empire any more.

The BBC have decided to hike their licence fee by just over £10, meaning British people will have to pay £169 a year, according to The Sun. The bosses at the broadcaster wanted to raise the figure by £15, which, as the TaxPayer’s Alliance tells Guido, would have handed over a whopping £365,596,950 more based on the March 2023 figure of the number of TV licences.

Covid Inquiry.
I thought Johnson’s apology was a mistake and unnecessary. He probably thought it diplomatic to apologise, a Politician’s point of view, PR. Theoretically the Inquiry is supposed to be a fact finding exercise, that it isn’t is not Johnson’s fault and he shouldn’t have apologised until the report is published. He shouldn’t play along with this nonsense Inquiry before the facts are established…..if they ever are.
Many people will think Johnson is responsible for Covid deaths, I don’t think so myself. The people who blame him won’t be swayed by his apology and it didn’t add factual evidence to the hearings.

I presume it’s just some stupid joke with the cameraman
Why would anyone read anymore into it ?

Stew, yes some joshing around in the studio.
I don’t think that there’s actually a cameraman these days in news studios.
Almost all broadcasting has an element of pretense and is staged in a way that we’ve all been conditioned to accept…
Catching the practitioners off air / camera goes some way to disrupting the spell.
Many, though not all media peeps are quite different to their on air personas which in many cases are absurd contrivances – and that suits the BBC as they get to mold what they want viewers / listeners to see / hear.

Yup, a simple silly mistake, but I can imagine my boss’s reaction had I done that at any time to all my customers and clients, and they’d suddenly turned and spotted it.
That could have well resulted in an order or a contract lost, and I’d have lost the commission, and also probably been written down on it.
Beeboids are just allowed, because they are, after all, celebrities, they command huge respect, and are untouchable!
Not in my book they ain’t.

In grateful thanks for each rubber boat landed on French shores the UK government should donate £100,000 to this new religious movement.

Posobiec makes a big claim ‘wow in 2019 David Attenborough said something very like you Tommy’
..Actually Google doesn’t show Attenborough saying the words Posobiec claimed
“There is a David Attenborough quote
..There is one thing to say about I respect other cultures
and I think they are interesting and want to learn about them
but it’s very different , when you find out that they are the ones coming in charge of your country. Telling you how you are going to live in your own town
And they do not hold to the same customs, the same rights, that you and your country believe in.
Now suddenly your own country has become completely
.. that was David Attenborough in 2019”
Nope doubt he said that

A. Piece by Peter Hitchens in the daily mail today on changes to the bbc …..
STARTS
Nobody gets fined for refusing to buy the Guardian newspaper, and a good thing too.
The Guardian is an estimable product, but plenty of us do not agree with its opinions or with its priorities. So we can choose not to buy it, or to buy something else.
Why then are we threatened with being dragged to court if we do not pay for the BBC, which is more or less the exact broadcast equivalent of the Guardian? And now the BBC wants us to pay even more to be hosed down with its incessant propaganda and unacknowledged bias.
There is a simple solution to the BBC’s demand for another increase in its licence fee. If it won’t even try to be impartial – and it is not trying very hard at the moment – freeze the fee which will then quickly dwindle thanks to inflation.
Some may say that it is wrong for one part of the media to seek restrictions on another part of the Fourth Estate. But this is to miss the point.
Newspapers make no claim of impartiality. Each day newspapers publish leading articles in which they express clear opinions on the major issues of the day, openly taking sides for all to see.
They tend to attract writers who broadly agree with their positions. And they tend to attract readers who do the same, though Conservative newspapers have a significant number of non-Tory readers, who like the product in spite of disagreeing with its politics.
The BBC is pretty much the exact opposite of a Fleet Street newspaper. Its money is forced from its users on pain of prison. It has opinions, but it pretends not to. And it recruits almost entirely from a section of society which agrees with these opinions.
Do not take my word for it. All this is in the open, if you look. Mark Thompson (then the BBC Director General) said in a 2010 interview with the New Statesman that the BBC had suffered a ‘massive bias to the Left’ (though he absurdly stated this had only been in the past). Roger Mosey, an unusually frank and honest former BBC executive, wrote soon afterwards in The Times that he broadly agreed with Mr Thompson.
Of course, the bias was not only in the past. It is constant and has been increasingly so since the fanatical social liberal Sir Hugh Carleton Greene took over as Director General of the Corporation in the 1960s.
This bias is not so much party political as general. BBC newsreaders do not suddenly cry out ‘Vote Labour!’ mid-bulletin. But BBC staff in general just find it very difficult to give a sympathetic hearing to the huge part of the population which holds socially and morally conservative views.
Here’s an example. I’d been having a number of impromptu conversations with Mr Thompson around the time he was in charge, as we often shared the same train. He had no answer when I said the BBC lacked presenters who would be prepared to give a really hard time to Clive Stafford Smith, the noted campaigner against the death penalty.
Although millions of British people support this penalty, the BBC does not contain a single significant man or woman who shares that view. On the contrary, they are all horrified by it. And it is easy to work out from that litmus test most of the other things they all hate, and what they all like.
If the confessions of Messrs Thompson and Mosey are not enough for you, bear in mind the public remarks of two former BBC star presenters. Andrew Marr described the Corporation at one of its own seminars as ‘a publicly funded urban organisation with an abnormally large proportion of younger people, of people in ethnic minorities and almost certainly of gay people, compared with the population at large’. All this, he said, ‘creates an innate liberal bias inside the BBC’.
John Humphrys wrote around the same time in the Radio Times: ‘The BBC has tended over the years to be broadly liberal as opposed to broadly conservative for all sorts of perfectly understandable reasons… The sort of people we’ve recruited – the best and brightest – tended to come from universities and backgrounds where they’re more likely to hold broadly liberal views than conservative.’
Perhaps the most hilarious such admission came from Roger Harrabin, for years the BBC’s main reporter on global warming: ‘I’ve never considered myself a climate-change sceptic.’ Nor did anyone else. The BBC’s complete abandonment of any sort of balance on this issue is one of its gravest failings.
Much more of this sort of thing can be found in the book Can We Trust The BBC?, a trenchant insider study of the Corporation from Robin Aitken, for many years a BBC staffer.
Left-wingers feebly counter all this by pointing to nominal Tories, such as Lord Patten, who have held prominent posts in the Corporation.
But the key word here is ‘nominal’. BBC Tories are almost invariably of the liberal, metrosexual, Remainer wing of the Tory party, token figures chosen precisely because the organisation knows that it is far easier to make such gestures than to embark on proper reform.
There are, and thank heaven for it, still a few BBC staff genuinely committed to impartiality. But my own direct experiences (vetoed by a high Corporation official as a panellist on BBC Radio 4’s Moral Maze, increasingly excluded from all kinds of programmes where I was once welcome) suggest that the BBC’s mind is growing narrower with age.
So here is what we do: A new body, let us call it the BBC Tribunal, is established. Nobody who has worked for the BBC should be permitted to work for it.
Its Charter is to include, at all times, representatives of the major political, social and moral currents in the country. Some of its members should be appointed (perhaps by a Parliamentary Committee to avoid direct government involvement), others directly elected by licence-fee payers in a poll from which political parties are banned.
It will establish a new Complaints Board, whose email and postal address will be broadcast at the end of every possibly contentious programme. This board will publish a weekly report of the numbers of complaints received for each programme.
All complaints will be seen and responded to by staff of the BBC Tribunal, within a month (under the current system, most complaints never get beyond the computers of Capita plc, which handles them for the BBC, though I suspect most members of the public have no idea this is the case).
If the complainant is not satisfied with the response, the complaint will be passed up to officials of the Tribunal, who will have powers to publicly rebuke the BBC for significant breaches of impartiality.
The impartiality rule should explicitly cover drama, often used as a propaganda vehicle, for example in favour of illegal drug abuse and abortion on demand by the BBC.
The Corporation should also for the first time become properly subject to Freedom of Information inquiries, losing much of the raft of protections and exemptions which currently make it almost impossible to question it about anything it prefers to keep quiet about.
And it should now publish the long-suppressed Balen Report, written in 2004 by former senior broadcast journalist Malcolm Balen, into its alleged bias over the issue of Israel. It has spent a small fortune of licence-fee money on legal actions to keep it secret.
It is simply not entitled to be a public body and to behave like this. Disgorging this document at last, especially now, would be an excellent symbol of a new era.
But if not, then even those of us who value the BBC (as I do) and want it to survive will find it hard to defend its costly empire any more.ENDS

The various inquiries to which Tony Blair gave evidence had access to all communications … I cannot recall anyone making the kind of criticism of him by staff, advisors and colleagues that so many made of Johnson. The idea that this is par for the course is sociopathic bilge
Psychopathic bilge clearly catnip to them.

Republican candidates largely duck Trump attacks in final debate
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-67645131
‘For almost two hours, Nikki Haley, Ron DeSantis and Vivek Ramaswamy fended off moderators’ invitations to attack him.’
The BBC don’t mention the moderator was Elizabeth Vargas who has famously clashed with Trump in the past.
But this bit they chose to report almost made me laugh out loud at the extreme double-standards:
‘Only ex-New Jersey Governor Chris Christie addressed Mr Trump directly, saying he would use another term in office to persecute political rivals.’
That would be ‘vocal Trump critic Chris Christie’ then BBC. But specifically bringing up ‘political persecution’ BY Trump while absolutely ignoring the ridiculous, extreme persecution OF Trump by the Left is as clear a sign of BBC bias as you will ever see.
I can almost smell their hate and spite in articles like this. It’s very clear Trump is the peoples choice and there is a good chance he will be President again.

“The presidents of
@Harvard
,
@MIT
, and
@Penn
were all asked the following question under oath at today’s congressional hearing on antisemitism:
Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate [your university’s] code of conduct or rules regarding bullying or harassment?
The answers they gave reflect the profound moral bankruptcy of Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth.
Representative
@EliseStefanik
was so shocked with the answers that she asked each of them the same question over and over again, and they gave the same answers over and over again.
In short, they said:
It ‘depends on the context’ and ‘whether the speech turns into conduct,’ that is, actually killing Jews.
This could be the most extraordinary testimony ever elicited in the Congress, certainly on the topic of genocide, which to remind us all is:
“the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group”
The presidents’ answers reflect the profound educational, moral and ethical failures that pervade certain of our elite educational institutions due in large part to their failed leadership.
Don’t take my word for it.
You must watch the following three minutes. By the end, you will be where I am.
They must all resign in disgrace.
If a CEO of one of our companies gave a similar answer, he or she would be toast within the hour.
Why has antisemitism exploded on campus and around the world?
Because of leaders like Presidents Gay, Magill and Kornbluth who believe genocide depends on the context.
To think that these are the leaders of Ivy League institutions that are charged with the responsibility to educate our best and brightest.
On the bright side, our congressional leaders deserve accolades for showing tremendous leadership and moral clarity in their statements, by the questions they asked, and the respectfulness with which they conducted the hearing.
It was a masterclass of how our government and democracy should operate.
If you have time, please watch the entire hearing. Throughout the hearing, the three behaved like hostile witnesses, exhibiting a profound disdain for the Congress with their smiles and smirks, and their outright refusal to answer basic questions with a yes or no answer.”

Very strange that that the UK is able to fly a surveillance plane over Gaza looking for hostages, but is completely unable to place the same plane over the coast of France looking for rubber boats.
The rubber boats contain future nail-bombers, rapists, kidnappers, and murderers of UK citizens – so some might think stopping these boats might be an urgent priority.

It will be a filthy place to live.
Betweenwhiles, we see the Chinese leader with that permanent smug unmoved expression on his mush. You can almost see it written, ‘All my own work’. Not even giving his partners in crime, the WEF, any accolade. The WEF? Useful idiots.
All socialists are infant communists waiting for the opportunity to break into the, ‘Big League’ and they are all now ecstatic in recognising the benefits of emulating the Chinese Communist Party system.
