Flotsam, there was a cancer fear scare on the front of the Times newspaper today and you know what, I will be 88 when the year 2040 comes and as I’ve had a BCC (that’s not a typo for the BBC!) removed already, I’m extremely relaxed about living on borrowed time, Biblically speaking. 🙂
Just watching an episode of the Two Ronnies for a bit of nostalgia and it’s the first time I’ve laughed out loud at anything for ages.
This got my attention : from complete farce in 1980 to a logical extension of what the misandrists of todays Left consider to be natural progression. The scene as Ronnie C is serving the tea from 4:00 raised a few titters.
Simple . Every Guardian Mirror reader pays a tax to keep the Telegraph running , an oversight trust made up of contributors to this site keeps it on the straight and narrow .
And now to the Eritreans/ Ethiopians / tensions in communities.
I repeat that before the war aliens were forbidden from taking part in political activity .
This in an age with more common sense was to never let the scenes we have seen recently taking place .
In fact that didn’t actually stop aliens from politics, but it had to be in a more civilised way – basically by quiet persuasion, reaching an MP who could take up the cause .
Now I thought that those who advocate for representative democracy, rather than more direct and accountable democracy, like most of the remainers who hated the referendum, would welcome such a law .?
And a Happy New Year to the BBC. May 2024 bring accuracy to your news and impartiality to your reporting. May it also fill your hearts with patriotic pride and a respect for our traditions. May you be delivered from modish absurdities. And may Reithian principles once again underlie your ethos.
As I’ve just given myself a Knighthood, I thought it would be nice if I could be as generous to all you good people who make up my news intake every morning!
These OBEs are available to use in any supermarket, petrol station or off licence, and I hope they bring comfort and well-being on this dull January morning!

“New Year’s Day: Call for trains to run in Wales’ valleys

Unfortunately the people of Wales have always been a bit dim and easily led. They can see the destruction being wrought and yet are incapable of putting two and two together and placing blame where it really lies.

Puzzled as I was by the failure of the world renowned and much trusted BBC to report ,in any meaningful way ,on the community clashing with police officers in Camberwell, I sent my own “Verify”team to investigate.
Regular readers may recall my own version of the BBC Verify unit is the “Veriturd team” , anyway ,after a relatively short time “we were getting reports” and “some people are saying”that whatever happened in Camberwell has been misunderstood and blown up out of all proportion.
It seems that it may have started as a gathering to celebrate Kwanzaa…Yes Kwanzaa, but unfortunately Father Kwanzaa and his sleigh, which I’m pleased to say is ULEZ compliant, was delayed getting around the One -way system.
Perfectly understandably emotions combined with a degree of frustration overspilled into what some have claimed was mindless violence. It was obviously holiday excitement.
Father Kwanzaa brought gifts on his sleigh which may , or may not have included big heavy cudgels and lengths of scaffolding poles , that the delighted celebrants of Kwanzaa were waving to show just how pleased they were that the party had finally started.
I hope that clears up any misunderstanding and will sign off by wishing you all a very happy Kwanzaa ( for anybody who is so ignorant that they don’t know what Kwanzaa is , despite Kamala Harris’s tireless work to promote this festival ,may I suggest you Google it.)
Oh. and thanks once again to the Veriturd team for all their hard work.
Regarding windy and wavy weather mentioned above, I have been watching a fascinating documentary about the last of the tall ships, including film footage in 1928, of a voyage around Cape Horn.
(known at the time as the Grain Race from Australia to the UK)
Men 200 foot above deck on the yard arms furling sail with no safety harness in storms, including trapped there during a hurricane with the ship listing at 60 degrees.
Regularly losing fingernails and sometimes fingers, but still having to continue doing the job.
Quite a disturbing story in The Mail re a ship carrying nice eco-friendly, lovely green “lithium batteries” going up in smoke in the hold at sea off Alaska.
There is a reason why people post videos without dates and context
The thugs are black , the victim is Latino
I saw this video last week
The suspects had been arrested and charged.
victim : Florentino Hurtado 23/12/23 Florentino and his wife went to a meat market. While Florentino stayed in the car, his wife entered the market to buy a specific ingredient for making tamales
Florentino got out of the car and became disoriented, which his daughter Jessica said happens often
After brutally assaulting Florentino, Lockridge and Stephens, who appeared to be the car owners, stole his phone and fled the scene
The suspects, Trayvon Lockridge and Deroderic Stephens, are both charged with aggravated robbery over 65
Lockridge, who has no priors, bond was set at $50,000
Stephens has five pending cases in addition to his new charge. His bond hasn’t been sent

Weymouth migrant hotel murder
Are they really saying staff did it ?
“at 11.07pm on Saturday, December 30, relating to an incident where ‘a man required medical assistance’ at the Hotel Central in Maiden Street.”
“As part of this investigation five *local men* – two 19-year-olds and men aged 21, 31 and 34 – have been arrested on suspicion of murder.”
It’s normally difficult for locals to get into an immigrant hotel.
Maybe he was assaulted in the street and ran into thehotl or something
Even I was shocked at the Haaretz report that Nettenyahu’s approval rating in Israel has dropped to just 4% !
Now I know Haaretz is the equivalent of the Daily Mirror but that is a ridiculous low figure and it shows the disatisfaction within Israel at the way Nettenyahu is conducting his hawkish policies.
The citizens of Israel deserve more. State of Israel can do more. We r better than that. 2024 will look completely different. The one who broke us up, the one who brought disaster upon us, willnot remain. The extremists & Netanyahu will go home. Let's start over, says exPM Lapid https://t.co/dLTaOSwDiV

I was at a huge indoor Christmas concert .. the tables moved

Tsunami ? BBC :”So far the highest recorded wave has been just over a metre” (threat downgraded)
A clear case for a charge of political discrimination by a publicly funded outfit. It should be taken to court for damages by all the denied companies in a class action.
For me it was “the infamous Dambusters’ raid” comment in the news on the anniversary, repeated in a later news bulletin.
So what was the mindset of the editor? Definitely anti-British, anti-history, anti-tradition. And nobody said anything between the two broadcasts? Also, obviously, no senior management watches news broadcasts, or if they did, didn’t think to say anything.
That, to me, demonstrates, without a shadow of doubt, the anti-British stance of the BBC. Long may it rot in hell.
There is a rumour doing the rounds that a US judge has ordered the release of names of visitors to Epstein’s Island. I don’t believe it, but if the list is released will the BBC report it?
Oh dearie me, everyone knows this is no longer how it works.
As with hospital bombings, blue thunder police raids and looking at people at funny way, they have been #accusedof so it is now up to them to prove they were not there.
“Nearly 200 names that had previously been redacted from a long-settled sex trafficking suit against Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell will soon be made public, a judge has ruled.”
So this cannot be the official list and could potentially be highly libellous.
Just as there are Holocaust deniers, there are October 7 deniers, or at least ‘minimisers’ and apologists. Sadly, a few appear on the BBC, and a few even post on this site.
“Hamas didn’t attack civilians, they say, and they didn’t abuse women” etc.
In this vid, David Wood goes into some detail about what Hamas terrorists did to Israeli women, based on a report by the NYT – a leftist publication and no friend of Israel.
The vid is long, slow and grim. Basically, imagine the very worst things that can be done to women, then multiply by 2… or 10.
One takeaway line: ‘The brutality against women was a combination of two ferocious forces, “the hatred for Jews and the hatred for women”.’
Mmm, I wonder what demonic religion could inspire such demonic hatred?
He gives a few handy tips for decoding police or BBC reports: If muslims or other potected minorities are involved in crime, listen out for the code words: ‘communities’; ‘police are appealing for calm’; ‘people are asked not to speculate’.
He is correct. The BBC does not care what its audiences want. The only sensible response is to stop watching their crap. I gave up on Dr Who when they turned him into a woke woman. I will never watch it again, and I feel great about that. My time matters to me, why waste it being patronised by woke brain dead rubbish?
Can’t believe it is almost 20 years ago (March 2024 ) that Malcolm Balen justified Radio 4 Today’s programme for paying for Jenny Tonge Liberal MP to visit Israel . She had said that “if she was a Palestinian she would also kill Israeli’s “. ( The BBC refused to publish his report into it’s Middle East reporting ).
The Tardis lands in Africa. Dr Who is mortally wounded by Tarzan. Dr Who further degenerates into an Australopithecine type humanoid. BBC diversity officer is happy to announce the employment of a member of an extinct human species as a BBC employee.
Media report this as a Newark rape.
“Five teenagers are now in custody following a serious sexual assault on a girl, 16.
The incident took place in an alleyway off St Mary’s Memorial Gardens, Newark, at around 7.45pm on 28 Dec.
Boys, aged 14 x2, 15 and 16 x2.”
And remember Sunak is only there because of the BBC/civil service campaigns to get rid of anyone remotely conservative.
Amazing how he lost a democratic leadership race but they still managed to get him in unopposed.
How many democratically elected Brexit supporting ministers have been forced to resign because of BBC pressure now ?.
If the BBC far-left activism is not stopped, I fear there is only one option left. Let Starmer and Labour burn it all down and hope the people wake up to what these modern Nazis really are.
Nice to see others waking up to the reality the Tories are indeed Marxist, alas the sheeple are as usual asleep believing the soma the media pumps into their credulous minds.
Although they’ve both been disgraced by the BBC, I think the UK would be a much better place now if we still had Boris as the affable PM with Cummin’s arm up his backside working him from behind the scenes.
The licence fee would be on it’s way out for a start. And that is key because the UK cannot recover from this unless the BBC activists (and the civil servants feeding them) are sorted out.
What a shame Boris was too weak and chose Nut-Nut for an easy life and ‘guaranteed happy endings’.
“…The licence fee would be on its way out for a start…”
Oh please, have a word with yourself John. You just can’t believe that. The Tories have been promising / threatening to end the licence fee since I was a lad. Quite a while ago..It ain’t going to happen. They’re all talk.
They produce an endless stream of useless windbag incumbents of number 10…each one seemingly even more inept and cowardly than the last. Actually, it’s quite a talent.
Then, in a few months someone will pipe up and say, “Well, at least he/she was better than…” NO!

This is a piece about looting so apologies if it is slightly off-topic.
Many posters on here are rightfully outraged at the little khant looting ULEZ charge, and understand this to be outright theft, or put another way highway robbery. Much as I hate this little lawyer scumbag the real villain is the DVLA who give out your address via your car number plate to these looters who will then come and break down your door and steal goods from your house.
These looting operations are now being racked up so that for example stopping outside an airport, or parking in the wrong spot in a dark car park, or entering the wrong digit of the number plate into a payment system, or dropping your daughter outside a train station. All of these things now result in penalty notices. These are completely illegal under the Bill of Rights. There is no victim in these fines (aka charges).
Looters will loot – that is what they do. But the real villain is the DVLA who do not operate data protection. They are guilty of data-rape – a hanging offence IMHO. Rant over.

Father Kwanzaa brought gifts on his sleigh which may , or may not have included big heavy cudgels and lengths of scaffolding poles , that the delighted celebrants of Kwanzaa were waving to show just how pleased they were that the party had finally started.
I hope that clears up any misunderstanding and will sign off by wishing you all a very happy Kwanzaa ( for anybody who is so ignorant that they don’t know what Kwanzaa is , despite Kamala Harris’s tireless work to promote this festival ,may I suggest you Google it.)
Oh. and thanks once again to the Veriturd team for all their hard work.

Regarding windy and wavy weather mentioned above, I have been watching a fascinating documentary about the last of the tall ships, including film footage in 1928, of a voyage around Cape Horn.
(known at the time as the Grain Race from Australia to the UK)
Men 200 foot above deck on the yard arms furling sail with no safety harness in storms, including trapped there during a hurricane with the ship listing at 60 degrees.
Regularly losing fingernails and sometimes fingers, but still having to continue doing the job.

Quite a disturbing story in The Mail re a ship carrying nice eco-friendly, lovely green “lithium batteries” going up in smoke in the hold at sea off Alaska.

No sign of this on the BBC or Guardian news sites….
Can’t think why?

Weird that the quantity of batteries isn’t mentioned – is it a ship-full or a few pallets in a general cargo?
Details of battery incidents portraying the tech in a negative light are it seems continually suppressed at the moment – especially by those two.

There is a reason why people post videos without dates and context
The thugs are black , the victim is Latino
I saw this video last week
The suspects had been arrested and charged.
victim : Florentino Hurtado 23/12/23
Florentino and his wife went to a meat market. While Florentino stayed in the car, his wife entered the market to buy a specific ingredient for making tamales
Florentino got out of the car and became disoriented, which his daughter Jessica said happens often
After brutally assaulting Florentino, Lockridge and Stephens, who appeared to be the car owners, stole his phone and fled the scene
The suspects, Trayvon Lockridge and Deroderic Stephens, are both charged with aggravated robbery over 65
Lockridge, who has no priors, bond was set at $50,000
Stephens has five pending cases in addition to his new charge. His bond hasn’t been sent

Weymouth migrant hotel murder
Are they really saying staff did it ?
“at 11.07pm on Saturday, December 30, relating to an incident where ‘a man required medical assistance’ at the Hotel Central in Maiden Street.”
“As part of this investigation five *local men* – two 19-year-olds and men aged 21, 31 and 34 – have been arrested on suspicion of murder.”
It’s normally difficult for locals to get into an immigrant hotel.
Maybe he was assaulted in the street and ran into thehotl or something

Even I was shocked at the Haaretz report that Nettenyahu’s approval rating in Israel has dropped to just 4% !
Now I know Haaretz is the equivalent of the Daily Mirror but that is a ridiculous low figure and it shows the disatisfaction within Israel at the way Nettenyahu is conducting his hawkish policies.

A quiz.
What was the BBC low point of 2023?
For me it was “the infamous Dambusters’ raid” comment in the news on the anniversary, repeated in a later news bulletin.
So what was the mindset of the editor? Definitely anti-British, anti-history, anti-tradition. And nobody said anything between the two broadcasts? Also, obviously, no senior management watches news broadcasts, or if they did, didn’t think to say anything.
That, to me, demonstrates, without a shadow of doubt, the anti-British stance of the BBC. Long may it rot in hell.

The reason I ask about the vercity is this:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12916353/jeffrey-epstein-secret-friend-list-names.html
Fortuotously appeared this evening.
“Nearly 200 names that had previously been redacted from a long-settled sex trafficking suit against Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell will soon be made public, a judge has ruled.”
So this cannot be the official list and could potentially be highly libellous.

Just as there are Holocaust deniers, there are October 7 deniers, or at least ‘minimisers’ and apologists. Sadly, a few appear on the BBC, and a few even post on this site.
“Hamas didn’t attack civilians, they say, and they didn’t abuse women” etc.
In this vid, David Wood goes into some detail about what Hamas terrorists did to Israeli women, based on a report by the NYT – a leftist publication and no friend of Israel.
The vid is long, slow and grim. Basically, imagine the very worst things that can be done to women, then multiply by 2… or 10.
One takeaway line: ‘The brutality against women was a combination of two ferocious forces, “the hatred for Jews and the hatred for women”.’
Mmm, I wonder what demonic religion could inspire such demonic hatred?

He is correct. The BBC does not care what its audiences want. The only sensible response is to stop watching their crap. I gave up on Dr Who when they turned him into a woke woman. I will never watch it again, and I feel great about that. My time matters to me, why waste it being patronised by woke brain dead rubbish?

Can’t believe it is almost 20 years ago (March 2024 ) that Malcolm Balen justified Radio 4 Today’s programme for paying for Jenny Tonge Liberal MP to visit Israel . She had said that “if she was a Palestinian she would also kill Israeli’s “. ( The BBC refused to publish his report into it’s Middle East reporting ).

And remember Sunak is only there because of the BBC/civil service campaigns to get rid of anyone remotely conservative.
Amazing how he lost a democratic leadership race but they still managed to get him in unopposed.
How many democratically elected Brexit supporting ministers have been forced to resign because of BBC pressure now ?.
If the BBC far-left activism is not stopped, I fear there is only one option left. Let Starmer and Labour burn it all down and hope the people wake up to what these modern Nazis really are.

Although they’ve both been disgraced by the BBC, I think the UK would be a much better place now if we still had Boris as the affable PM with Cummin’s arm up his backside working him from behind the scenes.
The licence fee would be on it’s way out for a start. And that is key because the UK cannot recover from this unless the BBC activists (and the civil servants feeding them) are sorted out.
What a shame Boris was too weak and chose Nut-Nut for an easy life and ‘guaranteed happy endings’.

Oh please, have a word with yourself John. You just can’t believe that. The Tories have been promising / threatening to end the licence fee since I was a lad. Quite a while ago..It ain’t going to happen. They’re all talk.
They produce an endless stream of useless windbag incumbents of number 10…each one seemingly even more inept and cowardly than the last. Actually, it’s quite a talent.
Then, in a few months someone will pipe up and say, “Well, at least he/she was better than…” NO!

This is a piece about looting so apologies if it is slightly off-topic.
Many posters on here are rightfully outraged at the little khant looting ULEZ charge, and understand this to be outright theft, or put another way highway robbery. Much as I hate this little lawyer scumbag the real villain is the DVLA who give out your address via your car number plate to these looters who will then come and break down your door and steal goods from your house.
These looting operations are now being racked up so that for example stopping outside an airport, or parking in the wrong spot in a dark car park, or entering the wrong digit of the number plate into a payment system, or dropping your daughter outside a train station. All of these things now result in penalty notices. These are completely illegal under the Bill of Rights. There is no victim in these fines (aka charges).
Looters will loot – that is what they do. But the real villain is the DVLA who do not operate data protection. They are guilty of data-rape – a hanging offence IMHO. Rant over.
