Hunter Biden: I’ve been the target of unrelenting ‘Trump attack machine’
Speaking from outside the Capitol on Wednesday, the US president’s son, Hunter Biden, denied his father’s involvement in his business dealings and refused to appear for a closed-door deposition in defiance of a subpoena from the House Oversight Committee.
After Biden’s remarks, the Committee’s Chairman, Republican James Comer, reiterated the significance of the investigation, referring to the “troubling evidence” found against him so far.
‘Malign states are using refugees as a weapon by ‘driving people to our shores to try and destabilise our societies’, PM warns’
Possibly the most significant headline I’ve read for months.
Guess what : the BBC have not reported it. Another ‘not helpful’ for the agenda.
Just like they didn’t report the uncovering of the Hamas terrorist plot to murder Jews in the EU yesterday.
It’s simply outrageous. What is wrong with these people ?. They are living in their own little ideological bubble and putting their fingers in their ears saying ‘I can’t hear you’ when they don’t like what’s happening in the real world.
Can their clear complicity actually mean that they WANT these immigrants to displace the white population ? (well, the Brexit voting majority part anyway). Or are are they just so immersed in groupthink they have no idea what they are doing ?.
Whatever : they must not be allowed to destroy our country while we are forced to pay them to do it.
…….driving people to our shores to try and destabilise our societies’, PM warns’
And that in a nutshell is why the Far Left support mass immigration.
Because destabilising society is the whole aim of the Far Left.
And any cause will do.

Isaiah 5:20-21
Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.
Woe to those who are wise in their own eyes, and shrewd in their own sight
And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
So when the Jehovahs Witnesses come around ask them to explain verse, although I could quite easily see the far Left C of E changing the verse so as not to offend.
Thoughtful
A while ago some Jehovah s witnesses knocked on my door . ..being an RC I had a nice chat .. in the end they said they had to go … I got such a warm feeling that I had beaten them .. that I recall it – years later … I reported it in confession of course … I think my priest has suitably entertained….
102C still although I have eaten something this evening.
My local church was an ABC parish – how to enrage a passive C of E vicar, tell him that! It closed because of an influx of Muslim migrants
And the other C of E church has a woman vicar wth an ego problem together with her husband. I went to a funeral of a C of E friend of mine which she wanted held at the Catholic Church, but for me it was all very shallow a modern church with a small group of ‘musicians’ and because she wasn’t Catholic it had to be a more ‘simple’ service.
So being a high church sort I’m a bit stuck at the moment.
Thoughtful, if you were 102 oC you’d have boiled to death by now (literally!), I think you must mean 102 F? That’s about 39 oC, which is normal for a ‘temperature’ AKA a ‘fever’.
Yep brain fog has got me I’m afraid thanks for your wishes.
The Luton Captain is top story on the Daily Mail and the comments are really sad, watching them dance around saying what they mean because the censorship here is as bad as it was in Communist Russia.
Oh dear.
Strictly Come Dancing.
Bad news for the BBC.
The gay team comprising the professional dancer didn’t win.
The public voted for the girl with no dancing experience, who got the lowest vote from the judges.
Discussions are underway for a gay only competition next year to ensure the ‘correct’ result is achieved.
UK MP Layla Moran says her relatives are among hundreds of civilians trapped in a Catholic Church in Gaza City as Israeli forces operate nearby.
The Liberal Democrat says her family are “days away from dying” without access to water or food.
Her relatives and the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem say a mother and daughter were killed inside the Holy Family Church complex on Saturday by sniper fire.
Justin Rowlatt on FooC
“our co-work with the INDEPENDENT Centre for Climate Reporting”
..Hang on surely CCR is a Greenpeace front , not independent
https://coveringclimatenow.org/climate-beat-story/qa-exposing-obstruction-with-the-centre-for-climate-reportings-lawrence-carter/ “We set up in early 2022 …
In my previous role at Unearthed, Greenpeace’s investigative journalism project, I had a lot of what I wanted from a job.
I was quite lucky, because in seven years at Unearthed I’d built up a track record of stories
I also had a good sense of the philanthropic organizations that might be interested in funding us. Tom and I had just done that big story on Exxon
But although Greenpeace is international, Unearthed was still hosted by Greenpeace UK, so I didn’t have much geographic freedom. I felt there probably was a role for a new organization to invest in very long-lead, impact climate reporting, on a global scale.”
So two guys that had been working at Greenpeace fr 7 years
went off to do “more of the same” with same funders
Yet Rowlatt emphasises they are independent
“Independent” is so often another one of those AMBUSH words, used as a weapon, which doesn’t mean what we think it means.
Now, I’m just watching this film with Michael Caine. It’s about an old London geezer, Harry Brown. He’s a veteran and living on a shit estate in London. It’s a typical urban scene, full of gangs, crime, muggings etc, but here’s the mystery…
Nearly all the young scumbag villains seem to be white. I can’t make it out.
How is it I can watch a period piece, set in Georgian London, stove-pipe hats, fancy carriages, fluttering females in crinoline dresses, the full Jane Austen…and half the cast are bloody ethnics…
And yet, here we are, contemporary London, right shit-hole, gangs, drugs, muggings and murders
Jeff
You got me thinking.
In 2010 Rod Liddell wrote this.
The overwhelming majority of street crime, knife crime, gun crime, robbery and crimes of sexual violence in London is carried out by young men from the African-Caribbean community. Of course, in return, we have rap music, goat curry and a far more vibrant and diverse understanding of cultures which were once alien to us. For which, many thanks.
But………l In March 2010, the Press Complaints Commission upheld a complaint against Liddle, since “the magazine had not been able to demonstrate that the ‘overwhelming majority’ of crime in all of the stated categories had been carried out by members of the African-Caribbean community
Fast forward to February 2022 and the Mayor of London website no less, publishes this
Despite making up only 13% of London’s total population, black Londoners account for 45% of London’s knife murder victims, 61% of knife murder perpetrators and 53% of knife crime perpetrators.
Twelve years of woke, politically correct, head in the sand multiculturalism before the problem is admitted. How many died in the meantime?
The sentiment of Piers Morgan’s statements these days are that he never endorsed phone hacking
Yet in the 2003 video he seems very much to endorse it
2023: Piers Morgan, "I've never hacked a phone, or told anybody else to hack a phone. And nobody has produced any evidence that I did"
2003: Piers Morgan, "Journalists found out that if a celebrity doesn't change their pin code, you can access their voicemail.. Are you really… pic.twitter.com/CUxVikue0K
Ever notice how the reporting and investigation of phone hacking doesn’t mention the mobile network companies and a bevy of ex Metropolitan police officers turned “consultants” and PIs?
A 15½ minute discussion hosted by the Critical Drinker about remarks made by former Doctor Who Christopher Eccleston, when asked what it would take for him to return to the role. Eccleston basically replied that writer Russell T. Davies and a whole host of other BBC employees would have to be sacked first.
Most relevant to this site are the remarks made by the Critical Drinker – who is a novelist called Will Jordan – towards the end of the video, at about 13m 45s:
“. . . they believe they are still fighting a war within their own organisation, because I’ve spoken to people, like I’ve been at publishing events down in London and I’ve spoken to people who work at the BBC and they said to me with a straight face 100% serious, uh, oh the BBC is a deeply conservative organisation and we’re still fighting to try and fix that. And I, for about 10 seconds I didn’t know what to say and all I could say to them was like, look I can’t speak to the culture within that organisation, I don’t work there. All I can say is based on what you guys make, that really doesn’t seem to be the case, like that doesn’t line up with what I’ve seen from what they produce, um – but that’s the mindset that they have, they still see themselves as like an organisation that needs fixing and so it’s only going to get even more extreme as they go forward because they see this as an ongoing war within the BBC and then the wider British culture, that’s the scary thing.”
Here are the 10 countries with the highest rape rates:
1. South Africa
South Africa has the highest rape rate in the world of 132.4. Some 66,196 incidents in per 100,000 people. According to a survey conducted by the South African Medical Research Council, approximately one in four men surveyed admitted to committing rape, according to World Population Review data.
2. Botswana
Botswana is the second with a rate of rape – 92.90 and 1,865 incidents in per 100,000 people.
3. Lesotho
Lesotho has 82.70 rape rate and around 1,777 incidents in per 100,000 people.
4. Swaziland
Swaziland recorded 849 incidents in per 100,000 people with 77.50 rape rate .
5. Bermuda
Bermuda is the fifth country with 67.30 rate of rape and 43 incidents in per 100,000 people.
6. Sweden
Sweden has 63.50 rape rate and around 5,960 incidents in per 100,000 people, according to World Population Review data.
7. Suriname
Suriname recorded 223 incidents in per 100,000 people with 45.20 rate of rape.
8. Costa Rica
Costa Rica has 36.70 rape rate and around 1,685 incidents in per 100,000 people.
9. Nicaragua
Nicaragua recorded 1,829 incidents in per 100,000 people with 31.60 rate of rape.
10. Grenada
Grenada with 30.60 rate of rape, has 32 incidents in per 100,000 people.
Here are some others countries with high rate of rape:
Bangladesh
Bangladesh has 11,682 incidents per 100,000 people among the total population with 9.82 rape rate. According to the local human rights organization Ain-o-Salish Kendra (ASK), between January and September 2020, at least 975 rape cases were reported in Bangladesh, including 208 gang-rapes.
India
The number of rape incidents in India in per 100,000 citizens is 22,172 as of 2020 with 1.80 rape rate. According to the local human rights org, according to World Population Review data. India recorded an average of 87 rape cases daily in 2019.
Pakistan
The NGO Sahil reported 3,832 cases of child abuse in 2018 which is an 11 percent increase from 2017 (3,445 cases).
country by country comparisons are not really possible, cos they use different definitions of the tally.
It may well be true that Sweden has a huge tally of rapes by migrants
However it has a high tally rate by whites compared to other countries.
Some countries would count a years rape inside a marriage as just 1 , whereas Sweden counts every act.
Many countries don’t count rape inside marriage as rape at all.
No comment really needed to see the correlation here, oh maybe Sweden, so let’s have look there:
Rape conviction rates rise 75% in Sweden after change in the law
even the bbc
Sweden rape: Most convicted attackers foreign-born, says TV
“About 58% of men convicted in Sweden of rape and attempted rape over the past five years were born abroad, according to data from Swedish national TV.”
HI Zephir – “according to data from Swedish national TV.”
– wonder if the Swedish government has any data?
– do the kids born from rape get called Mohammed after their dad?
Stafford is particularly concerned that sometimes rapists are allowed to visit the children conceived via their crime. “Rapists should not have access to the child,” he said, adding: “This is an issue which is not party political. Let’s make material change to legislation.”
I see yet another, ultra fit Premiership footballer, Luton Town’s Tom Lockyer, has collapsed on the pitch. This is still incredibly shocking, even though it’s becoming so much more prevalent.
Talking heads are being scratched…hmm, what could be causing this? Let me see…I wonder…Oh, I know, it’s how hard they train. Bloody Hell, pull the other one.
No doubt these astonishingly fit young athletes do train hard, but…They’re also looked after like the finest porcelain. Their diets are regulated, nobody smokes and there are no horrendous tackles in the game these days. So, what’s causing this phenomenon? Could it possibly have anything to do with…sshhh…
My old dad used to work close to the Chelsea training ground and a number of the team were regulars at a greasy spoon he frequented. He often saw Alan Hudson, Peter Osgood and the notorious “Chopper” Harris, noshing away on bacon, bangers, baked beans, black pudding, and fried bread. Not the healthiest breakfast for young athletes, you’d have thought.
Back in the 70s, the diet was (supposedly) atrocious. Blokes puffed away on fags and drank gallons of beer, but they weren’t collapsing on the football pitch every week.
Yep, same with my Dad when he turned out for a Southern League club in the 50s, Mum would cook him breakfast before he left for the game on a Saturday.
It’s always interesting to watch the BBC lie without lying.
Today we have the main headline:
‘UK and Germany join together to support ‘sustainable’ ceasefire’
The key word trickery here is ‘sustainable’ in quotes.
What it actually means is a ceasefire which can hold because Hamas will not fight back. Which of course means the elimination of Hamas because they will ALWAYS try to kill Jews.
So it actually means the UK and Germany support the war for as long as it takes to remove Hamas. The exact opposite of what the BBC try to imply in the headline.
A story about the IDF being very bad and – if you believe the article – simply murdering innocent people. I read it just to see if the BBC inform us how Hamas are operating where there are civilians to use them as human shields.
Not a word.
And we get:
‘”It does feel like it’s making a mockery of keeping civilians safe,” Ms Moran adds.’
‘She adds that the family have considered trying to travel to Rafah in southern Gaza near the border with Egypt but say it is too dangerous while no ceasefire is in place.’
Two statements both using very specific wording to match with the BBC wording for their campaign during the ‘Live feed’ reporting.
I call them both fake and written by the BBC themselves.
There is no doubt the situation is terrible for those people. But the BBC should be placing most of the blame on Hamas deliberately operating close to them. It’s a huge lie by omission in their reporting.
Lets see what seasoned expert at the BBC wrote it:
8am BBC stations led with non news about Michelle Mone.
(R4 and Radio Humberside, but not R Lincolnshire)
Not news cos about 5 or 6 days ago Michelle Mone/Barrowman had admitted publicly what everyone on Twitter had known for 2 years, that her and her husband had benefited from large profits made by PPE Medpro
The news item was really PRasnews for the Laura Kuenessberg show where Mone and Barrowman have done a big interview.
One tiny thing was new. Whereas Twitter specualated the profit on £233m was £28m to “100m, Mone spoke of a £50m profit.
The NHS had a team of people who agreed to the price, so if it was too high , that is their fault, rather than the sellers.
Likewise you write contracts in such a way that you don’t have to pay for faulty goods.
It is the nature of business that a sellers can sometimes make a 90% profit margin, whilst at other times they take a huge loss when they are left with things they cannot sell.
News just in: In an utterly shocking latest development… we learm the NHS is in crisis this winter…
Sunak’s missed targets leave NHS facing winter crisis… Pledges on waiting lists and beds not met… Broken promises ‘utterly predictable’… The NHS is facing another catastrophic winter crisis… (Observer)
We note the left-leaning Observer’s single concession to any sense of seasonal festivity on its frontpage today is a tiny spring of holly perched on the big ‘O’ of the word Observer on its masthead. This ecumenical fig leaf hardly covers the shameful doom and gloom purveyed to the liberal reader for the princely price of £3.80 (£2.14 for subscribers)
In News Review Those we lost 2023 – is a maudlin body count recounting of celebrity obituaries teased on the frontpage of the Observer.
For a moment we imagine we glimpse some colour in sports news… Pictorial diversity, or rather a complete lack of any white chaps, is provided by a photograph of: Luton Town players leave the pitch after captain Tom Lockyer had a cardiac arrest… more of that later
To be fair to the Observer there’s hardly any likelihood of glad tidings coming out of the East this Christmas… and if there were any good news eminating from the Holy Land we can be sure the Observer would be busy putting an anti-Israel spin on it: Hostages shot by IDF waved white flag
The Mail on Sunday has an investigative scoop (yes, they’re an endangered species but they do still exist) that highlight’s Labour Party hypocrisy on the Rwanda migrant scheme: Sam Rushworth, who has been picked to stand in the target seat of Bishop Auckland, founded a travel firm called African Dreams, which describes Rwanda as a ‘safe and supporting environment’ where children as young as 13 can enjoy an adventure holiday
Speaking of which (sometimes these segueways simply write themselves): Teen Alex back home… Lad flies to UK from France six years after going missing (Sunday Mirror)
Reach plc stablemate the Sunday People is rather more precise about the lad’s whereabouts during the interim: Back home after six years… Teen Alex who escaped ‘hippy cult’ returns to UK
Our BBC online newspaper review likes this story, promoting the Reach plc popular tabloid paring to number one and number two spots in their press line-up. Or maybe it was the prominence awarded to puffing the BBC’s flagship light enteratinment show Stictly on their frontpages that first attracted the Beeb boys and girls?
Back to the Mail, sadly languishing mid-table in the BBC press pile, and the breaking news of the day: As we reveal Labour candidate sells children’s holidays to ‘unsafe’ Rwanda, PM delivers starkest warning yet…
Sadly there follows a blatant lie in the screamer headline quote from Rishi Sunak: Rishi: Illegal migrants will overwhelm UK
With illegal Channel crossings hardly amounting to 10% of the total massive number of legal immigrants happily being processed by the UK visa factory working overtime, Mr AsI fetches his blue pencil for a correction job: Illegal Legal migrants will overwhelm UK – and I don’t like the word overwhelm – it’s too reminiscent of lefty headlines about the NHS being overwhelmed
In an unofficial unscientific non-peer-reviewed health study out today… Mr AsI reports that whereas 8% to 10% of NHS ambulances on our roads used to be sounding their wailing sirens, the figure is now 50% to 60% of these vehicles now doing so. Mr AsI, emeritus milk monitor of Gravel Lane Primary School, 25 yards freestyle swimming certificate, suggests two possible hypotheses to explain this phonomenon:
Firstly, one might consider the extra demands on NHS services from our fast increasing population, or the greater congestion on our roads – but these causal factors imply there is a deleterious downside to our government’s hyper-immigration policy. So, in line with usual acedemic report practice, Mr AsI will look elsewhere for reasons that our ambulance drivers are increasingly trigger-happy with the blues and twos. Could it be something to do with climate change…?
1. Due to the general tardiness of response leading to the greater lateness of arrival of the average ambulance, the condition of patients is more serious, necessitating our angels on lime green four-wheeled steeds are in more of a rush.
2. The general self-esteem – dare one say self-importance – of NHS workers has rocketed since all that doorstep clapping and pot-banging back in Lockdown. I heart the NHS and all that. The dark thought sometimes crosses Mr AsI’s mind that oftentimes when the wailing siren sounds there is in fact no ailing passenger aboard – just a pair of NHS green shirts in a hurry to get to the doughnut shop.
Michelle Mone admits she stands to benefit from £60m PPE profit (BBC)
Why Covid is still flooring some people… Even before vaccines, some lucky people barely got sick or did not even develop symptoms. But scientists specialising in our immune system warn Covid is still causing stonking infections that may be worse than before and knock us out for weeks. So what is going on? (BBC)
And in totally, completely and utterly unconnected news: Tom Lockyer: Luton captain ‘stable’ after suffering cardiac arrest (BBC Sport); On pitch collapse Luton captain in stable condition (Telegraph)
And in biased BBC-related news we give kudos to Matt the in-house cartoonist at the Telegraph for his festive seasonal comic sketch of a little boy asking of Santa: “Do you decide who’s been naughty and who’s been nice, or is it Gary Lineker?”
Twitter influencer sentenced for trying to trick Clinton supporters into voting by text
Douglass Mackey, the social media influencer known as “Ricky Vaughn,” was sentenced Wednesday to seven months in prison for falsely assuring supporters of Hillary Clinton they could cast their vote in the 2016 presidential election through text messages or social media posts.
Douglass Mackey, known online as “Ricky Vaughn,” was sentenced to seven months.
@Zephir that ‘s old and misleading info. I mentioned those 2 cases about a month ago *
#1 The news article is obviously from the URL from 2017
Martin Shkreli was already OUT of jail 18 months ago
served four years of his seven-year sentence
The actual sentence was Securities Fraud (A kind of ponzi scheme ..he says no one lost out , cos profits did actually pay back investors)
The Hillary connection is that the judge revoked his pre-trial bail so he was in jail before his sentencing https://sfist.com/2022/05/19/pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-released-from-prison-now-smirking-in-halfway-house/
He is NOT in jail
Dec 4th “federal court has ordered a stay in Douglass Mackey’s prison sentence pending an appeal of his criminal conviction for making anti-Hillary Clinton tweets online.”
This appeal is still ongoing
I can’t quite remember , but it could be the sentencing results from plea bargaining where he plead guilty to somethng not expecting to be jailed.
@Tomo mentioned the Tucker episode on Nov 8th
* I followed up on Nov 11th with my comments on both cases
The First Amendment is done. Douglass Mackey is about to go to prison for mocking Hillary Clinton on the internet. Tucker Carlson talked to him right before his sentencing. Remember as you watch that this could be you.
It itself misses big context : although about 5000 people did text the number BEFORE the election
There is no evidence anyone of them were eleigible voters , who failed to then vote by proper means.
And remember the bbc is on to Tucker Carslon big time
” “People are sick of it. He doesn’t care that the BBC has more important things to deal with. Personal brands count for so much more now. He’s the Tucker Carlson of the UK. Both are making money out of the gullible.”
Carlson was famously divisive and outspoken from his position of influence at Fox News until his abrupt sacking in April of this year.
4 years later …. banging on the front door at 7am.
Earlier this year I met a lefty staff journalist from a big German newspaper, I don’t recall exactly what triggered him but I recognised the “Trump Derangement Syndrome” style reaction – wow! – at the mention of Tucker Carlson.
The left and the Greens absolutely hate – and I mean HATE people who challenge them repeatedly and effectively
Here is a photo of an alleged Hamas ‘operative’ with a captive Israeli liberal nutcase who was a Palestinian aid volunteer. It’s amazing how many of the people killed on October 7th were left wing liberals who drank the koolaid and believed Islam was the ‘religion of peace’.
But regardless of that take a look at the Hamas ‘fighter’ (insert preferred word) because he certainly doesn’t appear to me to be a Palestinian Arab at all, in fact I’d say he is clearly an African and that begs the question how he got there and where he came from.
Ever since the start of this I have believed something wasn’t right about it, and I strongly suspect Russian involvement. We know Russia has huge influence in Africa now. Was this some kind of attack involving outside foreign mercenaries?
I meanwhile – mail reports mysterious fire at a hotel in Galway the night before it was due to ‘house ‘ criminal invaders ….. I wonder if there will be ‘copycats’ here ….?
And then there was the shock news that a master of footy broadcasting – Ian ? Or is it Steve ? Wright – is to ‘step back ‘ from being a useless pundit on match of the day …. The nation is shocked …
The BBC mentioned this on the newspaper review page
“The Sunday Telegraph leads with the prime minister’s message about hostile states who will increasingly “drive people to our shores” to destabilise Western nations unless there is a crack down on illegal migration and revamp of asylum conventions.” https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-67740319
Then a tiny mention on the 60 migrants story
“On Saturday, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had talks in Rome with his Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni and Albania’s PM Edi Rama on how to reduce illegal migration to Europe.
At the start of this year, Mr Sunak made stopping small boat crossings in the English Channel one of the five key priorities of his government.”
I maintain that the prosecutions were politically motivated which you no doubt knew but still choose to criticise me.
As for your motivation, who knows, there are those on this site who repeatedly post the same pictures and messages over and over and over again, yet you choose to criticise me.
I am tempted to say f’ck off and die, but that would be rude, you obsessive, compulsive tosser
Above at 11:15 am, I gave full context to your stream of misleading posts
cos I had posted the same material a month ago when it was news and not outdated.
.. and had taken care to include the proper context then
Not clickbait hyperbole
@Zephir I really don’t understand your bitterness
I came across a post which had a lot of misleading points. Since I knew a lot about it, I corrected the record
You made the post, yet I made NO personal attack on you, rather I corrected the points one by one.
Then you turn up and instead of replying directly to my post, you made a new bitter post down the page personally attacking me
Then following up with a number of personal insult posts.
That to me looks like bullying.
I say that for the record, but know that some people react by saying “Boohoo you are calling me a bully … I’m a victim. I’m a victim”
‘Hostile states will ‘drive’ migrants to UK and destabilise the West, warns Sunak ‘

I was working all day yesterday
and then posted 6 times whilst Maxi was here.
Including pointing out that when Maxi shouted that a video was 2 years old & called Tomo a liar,
actually evidence seems show Maxi is incorrect and that video is from a couple of weeks ago.
Yes Maxi you are right that is the same video that some Muslim accounts posted recently as if it was new
That Facebook video post is dated 17 Sept 2021
and is labelled “Ashura Procession 2021 London”
“Proud BA-HIJAB Community Really appreciate the ladies who observed hijab and maintained the decorum of juloos e aza in the respect of sayeda Zainab sa.”
but it’s hardly reasonable to say Tomo was lying
If a 70K follower Muslim account had posted it as if it was new
Tomo had posted a tweet “London comes to another standstill as Muslims insist on chanting and making a spectacle of themselves in the road. This has been going on for 2 months.”
The tweet as you pointed out used a dramatic video of Muslims taking over the streets
Your reply by saying it was all lies cos it was a video from 2021 , was a GOTCHA an attempt at a debunk.
However I was able to show two recent videos of Muslims taking over London streets praying.
To me that demonstrates that the sentiment of the tweet and Tomo’s comment was NOT lies, but was actually justified.
Likewise you claimed a gotcha cos a news story said the 2022 COULD go on into 2023, and not would
Doh, sentiment counts
and when news stories use “could” in a title their sentiment is not that event stands a 5% or 10% chance but is rather more likely
eg when they say “Arctic could be ice free by 2014” they are saying they think it’s likely the Arctic WOULD be ice free by then.
Like ‘trust’, and ‘impartiality’, the BBC did not invent the words, but traded its brand on them until they made them meaningless or outright laughable.
Ditto the terms ‘holding power to account’ or ‘holding truth to power’.
They don’t. None of them do any more. They might get close on occasion, but inevitably, disgracefully, selectively.

Hunter Biden: I’ve been the target of unrelenting ‘Trump attack machine’
Speaking from outside the Capitol on Wednesday, the US president’s son, Hunter Biden, denied his father’s involvement in his business dealings and refused to appear for a closed-door deposition in defiance of a subpoena from the House Oversight Committee.
After Biden’s remarks, the Committee’s Chairman, Republican James Comer, reiterated the significance of the investigation, referring to the “troubling evidence” found against him so far.

‘Illegal migrants will overwhelm Britain without global reforms, warns Sunak’
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2023/12/16/rishi-sunak-giorgia-meloni-illegal-migrants-britain-reforms/
‘Malign states are using refugees as a weapon by ‘driving people to our shores to try and destabilise our societies’, PM warns’
Possibly the most significant headline I’ve read for months.
Guess what : the BBC have not reported it. Another ‘not helpful’ for the agenda.
Just like they didn’t report the uncovering of the Hamas terrorist plot to murder Jews in the EU yesterday.
It’s simply outrageous. What is wrong with these people ?. They are living in their own little ideological bubble and putting their fingers in their ears saying ‘I can’t hear you’ when they don’t like what’s happening in the real world.
Can their clear complicity actually mean that they WANT these immigrants to displace the white population ? (well, the Brexit voting majority part anyway). Or are are they just so immersed in groupthink they have no idea what they are doing ?.
Whatever : they must not be allowed to destroy our country while we are forced to pay them to do it.

I went to a funeral of a C of E friend of mine which she wanted held at the Catholic Church, but for me it was all very shallow a modern church with a small group of ‘musicians’ and because she wasn’t Catholic it had to be a more ‘simple’ service.
So being a high church sort I’m a bit stuck at the moment.

In my previous role at Unearthed, Greenpeace’s investigative journalism project, I had a lot of what I wanted from a job.
I was quite lucky, because in seven years at Unearthed I’d built up a track record of stories
I also had a good sense of the philanthropic organizations that might be interested in funding us. Tom and I had just done that big story on Exxon
But although Greenpeace is international, Unearthed was still hosted by Greenpeace UK, so I didn’t have much geographic freedom. I felt there probably was a role for a new organization to invest in very long-lead, impact climate reporting, on a global scale.”
So two guys that had been working at Greenpeace fr 7 years
went off to do “more of the same” with same funders
Yet Rowlatt emphasises they are independent
“Independent” is so often another one of those AMBUSH words, used as a weapon, which doesn’t mean what we think it means.

Now, I’m just watching this film with Michael Caine. It’s about an old London geezer, Harry Brown. He’s a veteran and living on a shit estate in London. It’s a typical urban scene, full of gangs, crime, muggings etc, but here’s the mystery…
Nearly all the young scumbag villains seem to be white. I can’t make it out.
How is it I can watch a period piece, set in Georgian London, stove-pipe hats, fancy carriages, fluttering females in crinoline dresses, the full Jane Austen…and half the cast are bloody ethnics…
And yet, here we are, contemporary London, right shit-hole, gangs, drugs, muggings and murders
And suddenly everyone’s white…

You got me thinking.
In 2010 Rod Liddell wrote this.
The overwhelming majority of street crime, knife crime, gun crime, robbery and crimes of sexual violence in London is carried out by young men from the African-Caribbean community. Of course, in return, we have rap music, goat curry and a far more vibrant and diverse understanding of cultures which were once alien to us. For which, many thanks.
But………l In March 2010, the Press Complaints Commission upheld a complaint against Liddle, since “the magazine had not been able to demonstrate that the ‘overwhelming majority’ of crime in all of the stated categories had been carried out by members of the African-Caribbean community
Fast forward to February 2022 and the Mayor of London website no less, publishes this
Despite making up only 13% of London’s total population, black Londoners account for 45% of London’s knife murder victims, 61% of knife murder perpetrators and 53% of knife crime perpetrators.
Twelve years of woke, politically correct, head in the sand multiculturalism before the problem is admitted. How many died in the meantime?

A 15½ minute discussion hosted by the Critical Drinker about remarks made by former Doctor Who Christopher Eccleston, when asked what it would take for him to return to the role. Eccleston basically replied that writer Russell T. Davies and a whole host of other BBC employees would have to be sacked first.
Most relevant to this site are the remarks made by the Critical Drinker – who is a novelist called Will Jordan – towards the end of the video, at about 13m 45s:
“. . . they believe they are still fighting a war within their own organisation, because I’ve spoken to people, like I’ve been at publishing events down in London and I’ve spoken to people who work at the BBC and they said to me with a straight face 100% serious, uh, oh the BBC is a deeply conservative organisation and we’re still fighting to try and fix that. And I, for about 10 seconds I didn’t know what to say and all I could say to them was like, look I can’t speak to the culture within that organisation, I don’t work there. All I can say is based on what you guys make, that really doesn’t seem to be the case, like that doesn’t line up with what I’ve seen from what they produce, um – but that’s the mindset that they have, they still see themselves as like an organisation that needs fixing and so it’s only going to get even more extreme as they go forward because they see this as an ongoing war within the BBC and then the wider British culture, that’s the scary thing.”

country by country comparisons are not really possible, cos they use different definitions of the tally.
It may well be true that Sweden has a huge tally of rapes by migrants
However it has a high tally rate by whites compared to other countries.
Some countries would count a years rape inside a marriage as just 1 , whereas Sweden counts every act.
Many countries don’t count rape inside marriage as rape at all.

I see yet another, ultra fit Premiership footballer, Luton Town’s Tom Lockyer, has collapsed on the pitch. This is still incredibly shocking, even though it’s becoming so much more prevalent.
Talking heads are being scratched…hmm, what could be causing this? Let me see…I wonder…Oh, I know, it’s how hard they train. Bloody Hell, pull the other one.
No doubt these astonishingly fit young athletes do train hard, but…They’re also looked after like the finest porcelain. Their diets are regulated, nobody smokes and there are no horrendous tackles in the game these days. So, what’s causing this phenomenon? Could it possibly have anything to do with…sshhh…
My old dad used to work close to the Chelsea training ground and a number of the team were regulars at a greasy spoon he frequented. He often saw Alan Hudson, Peter Osgood and the notorious “Chopper” Harris, noshing away on bacon, bangers, baked beans, black pudding, and fried bread. Not the healthiest breakfast for young athletes, you’d have thought.
Back in the 70s, the diet was (supposedly) atrocious. Blokes puffed away on fags and drank gallons of beer, but they weren’t collapsing on the football pitch every week.
Unless they’d run into Norman Hunter…

It’s always interesting to watch the BBC lie without lying.
Today we have the main headline:
‘UK and Germany join together to support ‘sustainable’ ceasefire’
The key word trickery here is ‘sustainable’ in quotes.
What it actually means is a ceasefire which can hold because Hamas will not fight back. Which of course means the elimination of Hamas because they will ALWAYS try to kill Jews.
So it actually means the UK and Germany support the war for as long as it takes to remove Hamas. The exact opposite of what the BBC try to imply in the headline.
And here:
UK MP Layla Moran’s family among hundreds trapped in Gaza church
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-67736723
A story about the IDF being very bad and – if you believe the article – simply murdering innocent people. I read it just to see if the BBC inform us how Hamas are operating where there are civilians to use them as human shields.
Not a word.
And we get:
‘”It does feel like it’s making a mockery of keeping civilians safe,” Ms Moran adds.’
‘She adds that the family have considered trying to travel to Rafah in southern Gaza near the border with Egypt but say it is too dangerous while no ceasefire is in place.’
Two statements both using very specific wording to match with the BBC wording for their campaign during the ‘Live feed’ reporting.
I call them both fake and written by the BBC themselves.
There is no doubt the situation is terrible for those people. But the BBC should be placing most of the blame on Hamas deliberately operating close to them. It’s a huge lie by omission in their reporting.

8am BBC stations led with non news about Michelle Mone.
(R4 and Radio Humberside, but not R Lincolnshire)
Not news cos about 5 or 6 days ago Michelle Mone/Barrowman had admitted publicly what everyone on Twitter had known for 2 years, that her and her husband had benefited from large profits made by PPE Medpro
The news item was really PRasnews for the Laura Kuenessberg show where Mone and Barrowman have done a big interview.
One tiny thing was new. Whereas Twitter specualated the profit on £233m was £28m to “100m, Mone spoke of a £50m profit.
The NHS had a team of people who agreed to the price, so if it was too high , that is their fault, rather than the sellers.
Likewise you write contracts in such a way that you don’t have to pay for faulty goods.
It is the nature of business that a sellers can sometimes make a 90% profit margin, whilst at other times they take a huge loss when they are left with things they cannot sell.

Sunak’s missed targets leave NHS facing winter crisis… Pledges on waiting lists and beds not met… Broken promises ‘utterly predictable’… The NHS is facing another catastrophic winter crisis… (Observer)
We note the left-leaning Observer’s single concession to any sense of seasonal festivity on its frontpage today is a tiny spring of holly perched on the big ‘O’ of the word Observer on its masthead. This ecumenical fig leaf hardly covers the shameful doom and gloom purveyed to the liberal reader for the princely price of £3.80 (£2.14 for subscribers)
In News Review Those we lost 2023 – is a maudlin body count recounting of celebrity obituaries teased on the frontpage of the Observer.
For a moment we imagine we glimpse some colour in sports news… Pictorial diversity, or rather a complete lack of any white chaps, is provided by a photograph of: Luton Town players leave the pitch after captain Tom Lockyer had a cardiac arrest… more of that later
To be fair to the Observer there’s hardly any likelihood of glad tidings coming out of the East this Christmas… and if there were any good news eminating from the Holy Land we can be sure the Observer would be busy putting an anti-Israel spin on it: Hostages shot by IDF waved white flag
The Mail on Sunday has an investigative scoop (yes, they’re an endangered species but they do still exist) that highlight’s Labour Party hypocrisy on the Rwanda migrant scheme: Sam Rushworth, who has been picked to stand in the target seat of Bishop Auckland, founded a travel firm called African Dreams, which describes Rwanda as a ‘safe and supporting environment’ where children as young as 13 can enjoy an adventure holiday
Speaking of which (sometimes these segueways simply write themselves): Teen Alex back home… Lad flies to UK from France six years after going missing (Sunday Mirror)
Reach plc stablemate the Sunday People is rather more precise about the lad’s whereabouts during the interim: Back home after six years… Teen Alex who escaped ‘hippy cult’ returns to UK
Our BBC online newspaper review likes this story, promoting the Reach plc popular tabloid paring to number one and number two spots in their press line-up. Or maybe it was the prominence awarded to puffing the BBC’s flagship light enteratinment show Stictly on their frontpages that first attracted the Beeb boys and girls?
Back to the Mail, sadly languishing mid-table in the BBC press pile, and the breaking news of the day: As we reveal Labour candidate sells children’s holidays to ‘unsafe’ Rwanda, PM delivers starkest warning yet…
Sadly there follows a blatant lie in the screamer headline quote from Rishi Sunak: Rishi: Illegal migrants will overwhelm UK
With illegal Channel crossings hardly amounting to 10% of the total massive number of legal immigrants happily being processed by the UK visa factory working overtime, Mr AsI fetches his blue pencil for a correction job:
IllegalLegal migrants will overwhelm UK – and I don’t like the word overwhelm – it’s too reminiscent of lefty headlines about the NHS being overwhelmedIn an unofficial unscientific non-peer-reviewed health study out today… Mr AsI reports that whereas 8% to 10% of NHS ambulances on our roads used to be sounding their wailing sirens, the figure is now 50% to 60% of these vehicles now doing so. Mr AsI, emeritus milk monitor of Gravel Lane Primary School, 25 yards freestyle swimming certificate, suggests two possible hypotheses to explain this phonomenon:
Firstly, one might consider the extra demands on NHS services from our fast increasing population, or the greater congestion on our roads – but these causal factors imply there is a deleterious downside to our government’s hyper-immigration policy. So, in line with usual acedemic report practice, Mr AsI will look elsewhere for reasons that our ambulance drivers are increasingly trigger-happy with the blues and twos. Could it be something to do with climate change…?
1. Due to the general tardiness of response leading to the greater lateness of arrival of the average ambulance, the condition of patients is more serious, necessitating our angels on lime green four-wheeled steeds are in more of a rush.
2. The general self-esteem – dare one say self-importance – of NHS workers has rocketed since all that doorstep clapping and pot-banging back in Lockdown. I heart the NHS and all that. The dark thought sometimes crosses Mr AsI’s mind that oftentimes when the wailing siren sounds there is in fact no ailing passenger aboard – just a pair of NHS green shirts in a hurry to get to the doughnut shop.

And remember the bbc is on to Tucker Carslon big time
” “People are sick of it. He doesn’t care that the BBC has more important things to deal with. Personal brands count for so much more now. He’s the Tucker Carlson of the UK. Both are making money out of the gullible.”
Carlson was famously divisive and outspoken from his position of influence at Fox News until his abrupt sacking in April of this year.

As far as I can see, Tucker Carlson asks questions and listens to the answers
Divisive and outspoken ?

4 years later …. banging on the front door at 7am.
Earlier this year I met a lefty staff journalist from a big German newspaper, I don’t recall exactly what triggered him but I recognised the “Trump Derangement Syndrome” style reaction – wow! – at the mention of Tucker Carlson.
The left and the Greens absolutely hate – and I mean HATE people who challenge them repeatedly and effectively

Here is a photo of an alleged Hamas ‘operative’ with a captive Israeli liberal nutcase who was a Palestinian aid volunteer. It’s amazing how many of the people killed on October 7th were left wing liberals who drank the koolaid and believed Islam was the ‘religion of peace’.
But regardless of that take a look at the Hamas ‘fighter’ (insert preferred word) because he certainly doesn’t appear to me to be a Palestinian Arab at all, in fact I’d say he is clearly an African and that begs the question how he got there and where he came from.
Ever since the start of this I have believed something wasn’t right about it, and I strongly suspect Russian involvement. We know Russia has huge influence in Africa now. Was this some kind of attack involving outside foreign mercenaries?
Here’s the photo see what you think:

The BBC mentioned this on the newspaper review page
“The Sunday Telegraph leads with the prime minister’s message about hostile states who will increasingly “drive people to our shores” to destabilise Western nations unless there is a crack down on illegal migration and revamp of asylum conventions.”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/blogs-the-papers-67740319
Then a tiny mention on the 60 migrants story
“On Saturday, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had talks in Rome with his Italian counterpart Giorgia Meloni and Albania’s PM Edi Rama on how to reduce illegal migration to Europe.
At the start of this year, Mr Sunak made stopping small boat crossings in the English Channel one of the five key priorities of his government.”

“I can’t quite remember”
maybe you should before you attempt to criticise.
I maintain that the prosecutions were politically motivated which you no doubt knew but still choose to criticise me.
As for your motivation, who knows, there are those on this site who repeatedly post the same pictures and messages over and over and over again, yet you choose to criticise me.
I am tempted to say f’ck off and die, but that would be rude, you obsessive, compulsive tosser

@Zephir I really don’t understand your bitterness
I came across a post which had a lot of misleading points. Since I knew a lot about it, I corrected the record
You made the post, yet I made NO personal attack on you, rather I corrected the points one by one.
Then you turn up and instead of replying directly to my post, you made a new bitter post down the page personally attacking me
Then following up with a number of personal insult posts.
That to me looks like bullying.
I say that for the record, but know that some people react by saying “Boohoo you are calling me a bully … I’m a victim. I’m a victim”

I was working all day yesterday

Including pointing out that when Maxi shouted that a video was 2 years old & called Tomo a liar,
actually evidence seems show Maxi is incorrect and that video is from a couple of weeks ago.

Yes Maxi you are right that is the same video that some Muslim accounts posted recently as if it was new
That Facebook video post is dated 17 Sept 2021
and is labelled “Ashura Procession 2021 London”
“Proud BA-HIJAB Community Really appreciate the ladies who observed hijab and maintained the decorum of juloos e aza in the respect of sayeda Zainab sa.”
but it’s hardly reasonable to say Tomo was lying
If a 70K follower Muslim account had posted it as if it was new
The Met Police tweeted Dec 3 that it was from 2021

StewGreen,

@Maxi I quote your post “tomo, Lies upon lies”
Tomo had posted a tweet “London comes to another standstill as Muslims insist on chanting and making a spectacle of themselves in the road. This has been going on for 2 months.”
The tweet as you pointed out used a dramatic video of Muslims taking over the streets
Your reply by saying it was all lies cos it was a video from 2021 , was a GOTCHA an attempt at a debunk.
However I was able to show two recent videos of Muslims taking over London streets praying.
To me that demonstrates that the sentiment of the tweet and Tomo’s comment was NOT lies, but was actually justified.
Likewise you claimed a gotcha cos a news story said the 2022 COULD go on into 2023, and not would
Doh, sentiment counts
and when news stories use “could” in a title their sentiment is not that event stands a 5% or 10% chance but is rather more likely
eg when they say “Arctic could be ice free by 2014” they are saying they think it’s likely the Arctic WOULD be ice free by then.

Like ‘trust’, and ‘impartiality’, the BBC did not invent the words, but traded its brand on them until they made them meaningless or outright laughable.
Ditto the terms ‘holding power to account’ or ‘holding truth to power’.
They don’t. None of them do any more. They might get close on occasion, but inevitably, disgracefully, selectively.
