Giless – welcome to the site . The rule is that when you comment to refer to the BBC – unless you turn out to be a troll – in which case your account may be deleted . I’m getting fed up with dog poo trolls …
Ah, certainly not a troll. I’ve been enjoying reading the comments over the past few months and align with a lot of what’s been shared/discussed. Just amazed that I was first on a thread, as I understand it’s a highly competitive thread!!
Huw Edwards is biggest mover among BBC top earners!
DT July 23 that was. (see ***)
Today:
Only this morning I heard on TalkTV that he is still on on half £ million year on sick leave after spending £35,000 on ‘explicit’ pictures from a home web camera of a boy he knew. When the boy’s parents found out, they complained direct to the BBC. The BBC did nothing and fobbed them off. It was only when in desperation did they find The SUN found this was a story worth telling… and how the BBC denied it! Not as if it has not happened before, or for the BBC worth worrying about.
The rest is history, in your papers now – in all the newspapers and even (finally) on the BBC News. And the report below is sourced from The Guardian, who must realise now, that the BBC is beyond any redemption and corrupted by money, greed and full of dicks.
BBC apologises to family at centre of Huw Edwards scandal.
“The BBC has apologised to the parents of a young person who made a complaint about the suspended BBC presenter Huw Edwards, admitting it should have acted more quickly.
The corporation launched a review into its complaints procedure after the scandal in July last year.
I wonder if BBC nabobs have their own HMRC hotline?
HMRC lets wealthy use VIP helpline to avoid long waits
While millions wait an average of almost 23 minutes, high-profile taxpayers get through on a special number called “Public Department 1”https://t.co/sfv0pDd2we
So thats a big f**k you to the UK Taxpayers from HMRC
I actually think that’s a reasonable way to organise things. Calling it a “VIP line” is pejorative. The facts are that people with a lot of money have highly complex tax affairs requiring specialised input from HMRC. They also pay a lot more tax than normal people.
Many people think tax is straightforward. That’s far from true and the amount owed can often be a matter of opinion and whether the taxpayer is prepared to contest HMRC with the risks involved.
British media are not honourable truth tellers
They have no hesitation it editing clips
to omit bits which would spoil the narrative for a bit of PR trickery being pushed by their mates.
.. They are a school bully gang.
Almost every clip of Lee Anderson has the end bit cut off where he says Starmer is controlled by Islamists
“I don’t actually believe that the Islamists have got control of our country, but what I do believe is they’ve got control of Khan & they’ve got control of London, & they’ve got control of Starmer as well.”
Julia Hartley-Brewer says Lee Anderson's comments were also aimed at Keir Starmer and not just Sadiq Khan.
JHB had Paul Scully MP
on Tuesday
and she asked him ..”You do know that Anderson’s video said both Sadiq and Starmer are controlled by Islamists ?”
“No I’ve not heard the Starmer bit”
FFS he’s an MP and he’s commenting a media narrative version, rather than actual reality
This is an interesting article. The BBC are actually trying to ‘blackmail’ Biden into changing his stance on Palestine using all the dirty tricks we’ve seen them use here a hundred times against the government.
What stands out about this is that they have dropped any pretence of trying to be impartial. It’s 100% anti-Trump and 100% pro-Palestine. All mixed in to a pot of bubbling agenda.
Just look at the typical, random voter they manage to find for comment. Who – just like all the fake ‘victims’ in Gaza – manages to come out with a statement right-on the BBC’s current agenda not list:
‘”As far as Joe Biden’s age, I’d rather have someone in office that forgets a few things than a criminal,” she said, addressing one of the concerns that has been raised over Mr Biden’s candidacy.’
Lets see which rising star they have lying-BBC-style through his teeth for this one:
The more sinister thing about this is that the subtle shift in favour of their agenda is because they are starting to get worried that the Democrats might not win. When this happens at the BBC, I’ve noticed it is a subtle shift across their entire output – not just some activist idiot deciding to do it himself. Which means there is some form of very strict guidelines and control going on from the BBC political commissars. I often wonder if they have a meeting to decide it which is then filtered down through their many management layers or there is one head-honcho who dictates it. I would love to see how it’s done.

However one interesting thing is that even after many hours Garda/Police have not issued a denial.
“Sir Michael Ellis said the BBC’s impartiality had been brought into ‘disrepute’ over its coverage of Israel and Hamas.
Opening a Westminster Hall debate on the subject, he warned that the corporation’s reporting had ‘fuelled the appalling rise of anti-Semitism’ and ‘harmed diplomatic efforts to bring an end to the violence’.”
A BBC spokesman of course dismissed the assertion. It seems sadly unlikely that this blinkered, biased corporation will be seeing the light anytime soon …
https://x.com/JohnSimpsonNews/status/1762769229390991588?s=20
An opinion poll for More In Common finds people split almost 50-50 between thinking the BBC is pro-Israel or pro-Palestinian. Sir Michael Ellis, who was very briefly attorney-general in 2021, said yesterday ‘The BBC’s biased coverage… has steered (the public) in a more anti-Israel direction.’ ‘Biased’ nowadays seems increasingly to mean ‘you’re telling me things I don’t want to hear’.
He has his supporters. But then the BBC has many staff, pensioners and relatives.
One day Jesus decided to stroll down to the Pearly Gates. No sooner did he get there than St. Peter exclaimed, “Oh, I’m so glad you’re here, I need to go to the bathroom bad! Watch the Gates for me, will you?”
“But what am I supposed to do if someone comes?” Jesus asked.
“Have them fill out the intake sheet,” Peter said, pointing to his lectern. “I gotta run — ‘bye!”
“But —“ Jesus said, too late; Peter was out of earshot. Jesus was studying the intake sheet when he saw an old man tentatively approaching the Gates. “Welcome to Heaven, sir!” he said.
The old man stared. “Heaven — is it true? I’m in heaven?” he whispered. When Jesus nodded, the old man dropped to his knees and said, “Oh, how wonderful! Maybe now I can finally find my son!”
Jesus helped him to his feet and said, “I’ll be happy to let you in, but first I need to get some information from you so we know where to put you. Now, while you were on earth, what did you do for a living?”
“I was a carpenter,” the old man replied.
Jesus was struck by the coincidence, but made a note on the intake sheet and moved on to the next question. “About your family — you say you have, or had, a son, and you believe he’s here already, is that correct?”
“Well, I don’t know for sure,” the old man said. “We went our separate ways a long time ago, and I heard that he died. But he was a very good son, so I know that if he died, he’ll be here.”
Moved with pity for the old man, Jesus replied, “If he is here, we’ll certainly help you find him. Can you give us a description of him?” To which the old man replied, “Oh, he’ll be easy for you to recognize: he has nail holes in his hands and feet.”
Carpenter, good man, separated from family, nail holes — Jesus stared at the old man, dropped his pen and paper, thrust out his hands, and cried, “Papa!!!”
And the old man looked at him quizzically and said:
Not directly BBC – but a cut and paste by a former BBC journalist on twitter –
STARTS The UK is drifting, unhappy, losing faith in previously respected institutions (like the police), buffeted by extremists (often allowed to run amok), dismayed by decline, angry at the inability of the political class to do anything about it, despairing that the Westminster politico/media bubble pursues an agenda, issues and priorities (look at the obsession with Lee Anderson) which are not most people’s — and had enough of being lectured to by a disconnected, de haut en bas chattering class. Yet we have a Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition incapable of speaking up for the moderate majority, who still have pride in their country and are desperate for strong leadership and guidance through the current morass — plus some hope/sign things will get better — all within the bounds of traditional British tolerance and fair play. This vacuum is dangerous.ENDS . …
The author is Andrew Neil . The ‘vacuum ‘ he refers to has been discussed here a lot . I thought the serious disorder would come after red labour has screwed thing up even worse than blue labour …. But now I’m not sure the current system will last to the election …..
The BBC has been responsible for firing up its Hamas followers – biased reporting has consequences which are starting to be played out … millions to be spent shielding MPs .
The BBC explains that it’s ’because Of the war in Gaza ‘…. A Goebells style redrafting of the truth . It’s because of Muslims – now beyond control because of a frightened / complicit plod , political class and media . The majority will one day say enough – and no ‘intelligence community ‘ will be able to stop it .77 brigade to note ‘community tension’ …
I can think of only one politician remotely capable of channeling the views of the silent majority … he has flaws … he may no longer up for the fight … he presents ( still ?) on GBnews – ….. Farage … there’s no one else
.
If Neil is writing this then that in itself is significant. We all know that he is a slightly to the centre right globalist and very much against populist democracy. Hence his falling out at the start of GBN when he unsuccessfully tried to steer it into being a more mainstream channel and less populist.
Nonetheless he is very plugged in and widely respected by throughout the MSM So if he is putting pen to paper to warn the neo liberal global establishment that their time is nearly up he must be very worried.
I’m not a fan of revolutions as you often end up with an even worse regime in charge than the one you revolted against but if something drastic doesn’t change in the UK soon we will become an Islamic country.
Rochdale bi election Thursday – the openly anti semitic Muslim candidate will win . He is the one who is labelled ‘red labour’ but has been disowned because he wants Jews dead . That doesn’t matter – fixed postal votes are in …. It will help us by demonstrating the sort of creature that gets into parliament and the vermin who vote for him ….
Local Government wants more money . It’s no good at managing its ‘ funding – so it goes to central government for more money – which it gets – £600 million …. A Tory government wouid say – go away and sort your own funding out …. Cut unnecessary activities and stick to the basic stuff .
But no – councils are being encouraged to spend and spend without consequences . Why have local councils ? Maybe have central responsibility ? My council is an enemy – it’s a one party red state – just takes my money . It hates me . ….
… btw – huge uncontrolled population increases go unmentioned in this mess . But people know the truth .

Rowling leads backlash over trans cat killer standing trial as woman (Telegraph) – this confusing modern nomenclature that’s come to the fore since David Cameron, followed by a string of left-liberal PMs posing as conservatives took power – for a moment back there I thought a transvestite cat had been on a murder spree. Pussy power.
Funny isn’t it… it’s regarded as highly offensive to abbreviate the term Pakistani, whereas the shortening of transvestite to trans is now de rigueur.
Cat lovers look away now
The story to which the Telegraph refers is of course: Cat sadist caged for killing a stranger… sexual pleasure from putting a cat through a blender has been jailed for life for murdering a stranger she lured to his death on a night out (freebie Metro) – the poor innocent cat may possibly have been a ‘She‘ but the killer in this case was – despite our liberal media’s woke journalistic skew – in fact a ‘He‘: Blake, a trans-gender woman who at times adopted a cat persona, had denied murder but was found guilty at Oxford crown court – saucer of milk for the prisoner in the dock? Seems there are some limits to official and media respect for self-identification. Surely the defence missed a trick there by not entering a diminished responsibilty due to mental incapacity plea. It’s all the rage, or so I hear.
One thing is for sure, our BBC won’t be splashing with this case or marking its anniversary. I’m not sure if social media can be blamed in any way – a situation which often excites our national broadcaster leading to empassioned calls for more censorship and regulation, but: ….judge said Netflix documentary Don’t F*** With Cats played a role in both killings (giveaway Metro)

There is an OT Bible story similar to this regarding King David and Uriah the Hittite 2 Samuel 11
The chapter ends with how Davids actions displeased God.
In the following chapter God makes plain how he is going to punish David for what he has done.
These two chapters deserve revisiting and those involved called out for their gross sin and what God says amounts to mass murder to satisfy their own greed and sinfulness.
tomo, if I recall correctly it was a Labour Government nominee for an important EU post, Cathy Ashton, as the EU’s first High Representative of the Union for Foreign Affairs and Security policy who helped to start the war in Ukraine.

Most of her visits to Ukraine appear to be in the company of one Jewish heritage Demonrat – John Kerry adding further weight to the assertions of a cabal here at work.
TOADY Watch #1 – the lack of knowledge of BBC presenters is astounding!
Much huffing and puffing from the BBC over the £600 million of taxpayers money given to Local Authorities by central Government to help fund their essential services. It is not enough say the BBC and Local Authorities. The subject of Special Educational Needs (of children) was mentioned. I am surprised that the BBC presenters did not know that that funding requirement is met out of the education budget from the Department for Education via the Local Education Authorities controlled by the councils themselves.
You know you can trust the BBC … to pull the wool over your eyes.
Up2
A useful reminder of the opacity of school financing.
Academy trusts are supposed to operate as independent institutions free of council interference. But in fact the money goes from the DfE to the local council who then are supposed to give it on to the school. Why? Why introduce a non-performing, non-added value piece of bureaucracy? Schools are moving to a national funding formula so even more reason to cut out the dead wood.
To be fair to councils they do have residual responsibilities for children and many of these cost a lot of money and cannot necessarily be predicted. But when the government throws all its money down the drain of the NHS is there any wonder that every other public service is cash-strapped?
Sluff, it was said during Blair’s and Brown’s time in Government that – “Education, education, education” notwithstanding – the funding for schools was increased dramatically but the Dept. for Education spent half the money on itself and passed the rest to the LEAs. They then spent half the money received from central Government via the DfE on itself and divided the rest of the funds from taxpayers between the schools in its area of responsibility.
Amazing.
Is the situation any different now? I think we should be told.
…….but they have to fund all those equality, diversity, pride and trans initiatives somehow.
And retrofit lifts so all those disabled people can get upstairs in old schools.
Not to mention funding the Prevent strategy to ward off all that Far Right extremism…..
It’s a wonder there is any money left to teach ordinary kids ordinary things, like subjects.
Actually I’ll just mention this. Around 80% of a typical school budget goes on staff salaries. The money which has to be set aside for teachers future pensions is just under 24% of salary. Do the maths.
Hands up all those who knew that 19% of an entire school budget is for staff pensions? Almost as much as funding the entire school apart from staff costs. Maintenance, heating, lighting, water, repairs, school minibus, decorating, everything.
Just as I thought. Almost no-one.
It’s about that same percentage of your poll tax which goes to LA people too!
God knows how much cash that the useful and the gullible give to bogus charities is quantified and handed out to ‘staff’!
Charity begins ‘Chez Scrobs’ these days, as directly Sunak hands out the triple lock increase, and looks around for praise, the extra few meagre pounds gets hauled back via income tax, and gets handed out for the illegals’ housing, (see Alf Dobbs post in the previous string), and the disastrous net-zero green levy etc.!
Sluff and Scrobie, the public sector is fast becoming a millstone around the necks of the taxpayer. There was an implicit request relayed via the BBC, “We need more money from the Government”. The Government has no money. The BBC choose to forget that fact!
The latest BBC victim group is that those with autism stand less chance of landing jobs.
Now it’s not a great affliction to have, granted. But on the other hand, if you are an employer, will such a person help team dynamics? Or empathy with customers? Quite possibly not.
I mention this because in ‘Silent Witness’ on the BBC, ever eager to tick boxes, they have a mute character who communicates by sign language only. We get subtitles when she is ‘talking’. But get this. She also has a full time ‘interpreter’ who sits around reading a book and then whirs into life only when communication is necessary. OK so it’s a drama but the BBC bods have included this. Who pays for two people in order to employ one with a disability? Does money grow on trees? Is this a not so subtle way of engendering support for spending even more taxpayers money on next-to-nothing?
All too often ‘disability rights’ are also ‘fleece the taxpayer rights’. A little harsh perhaps but a necessary reposts to the one-way-street on the matter that appears to be the unchallenged default position of the blank cheque.
I have never watched “Silent Witness”. This is because I had some personal experience of pathologists and coroners, and would not have been able to reconcile what I knew about their indolence and lack of imagination with the fictional crime busters. But I must say it sounds as if the show has degenerated so far that it no longer has any connection to reality. Much like the rest of the BBC,

As you saw when the civil (dis)Service was tasked with bringing refugees from Iraq during the time of ISIS they didn’t manage to find a single Christian despite the widespread reports of dire persecution and they instead brough radical Islamists into the UK.
Thoughtful, there were also Jewish communities in Iraq (and Iran, as well) and there are some in Damascus in Syria. The Christian sister of a friend is in Damascus happily living alongside Jews and Arabs under what the BBC would describe as President Assad’s cruel rule.
Supposed is the operative word Flotsam. The guy is an unhinged lunatic with no qualifications to discuss this topic other than his personal opinions which are nonsense. I switched off the minute he came on before his ranting started. He cannot coherently argue anything. I do not know why GB news persist in bringing idiots like him, Butterworth, Nickell etc on as I am sure many others like me switch off.
They have to be seen to provide “balance”. Obviously the BBC does not have to do this, because it has a privileged position. GB News is getting reported by leftists to Ofcom on a daily basis. Ofcom is complicit, because it accepts these crackpot complaints, which means GB News has to devote management time to dealing with them. It’s all a fix by the Blob.

The BBC (Balestine Broadcasting Company – there is no letter ‘P’ in Arabic) reports that ‘Gazans (are) in survival mode with cold nights and food rations’. Undoubtedly, it is not a pleasant situation for civilians to be in. Meanwhile, according to the same BBC, the weather forecast for Gaza is as follows:
Wednesday: Sunny, with a high of 20C after a low of 11C overnight.
Thursday: Sunny, with a high of 22C with a low of 13C overnight.
Friday; Sunny, with a high of 23C and a low of 15C overnight.
One cannot help wondering whether there are homeless people and pensioners in this country who are also ‘in survival mode with cold nights and food rations’.
You can play a sort of sick game these days . ‘An elderly man attacked and killed in a sickening attack ‘ outside a tube station in east londonistan yesterday . One arrested . ‘An isolated incident ‘…. No names . Nothing else ….

Heard an interesting debate on GB News in which I thought Peter Tatchell made the point very well – and repeatedly – that we should be free to robustly criticise and challenge ideologies. That’s not to be conflated with attacking individuals for what they believe – which is wrong. Think I’ve paraphrased that correctly.
Wood is a renewable digg ! The whole thing about Drax is the total hypocrisy of using petrol chainsaws and machinery to deforest entire areas, to then use diesel trucks to get the wood to the sawmills where fossil fuels are used to reduce perfectly good timber to pellets. They then have to use fossil fuels to dry the pellets before loading it onto trains powered by diesel to take it thousands of miles to ports where it is loaded on ships (heavy oil powered) to bring it across the oceans to Liverpool where it is loaded onto diesel powered trains (which run close enough to me to see them every now & again) which takes them to Drax to be burned – one enormous train every day.
They then make the ridiculous claim that this is ‘renewable’ and sustainable when it is clearly an outrageous raping of the Earth to satisfy melons who are too stupid to realise they are being duped.
I just LOVE it when the Lefty cretins unwittingly expose their extreme double-standards in stories like this. And even better, the BBC have promoted it to world news showing they are equally as bad.
‘The event’s advertisement specified a white dress code, but also had a line saying “Face control: White” – which was largely interpreted to mean the event was open only to white people.’
‘Backlash against the event was swift, with many on social media calling it “disgusting” and “racist”.’
And how many competitions/groups/BBC ‘features’ are black only BBC ?. Google shows me many. Why aren’t THEY disgusting and racist ?.
This is why I detest the ethics of the Left so much : they have the ultimate double-standards. As we keep saying, it’s only wrong when people they don’t like do it. They are motivated by hate and spite. Nothing else.

The Lib Dems have been left humiliated this morning after their latest attention-seeking press stunt completely flopped.
24 hours ago with great fanfare, the party launched a new campaign against Lee Anderson, encouraging MPs to sign a parliamentary motion decrying his “Islamophobic comments”.
The Early Day Motion called on the Commons to censure the Ashfield MP, accusing his attack on the Mayor of London of being “Islamophobic, damaging, divisive and risk bringing the House collectively into disrepute”.
It added a final demand that Mr Anderson should come to the House and apologise for his remarks.
In a press release, the Lib Dems called on Conservative MPs and the Government to back the motion, adding that they “must show that Islamophobia is not tolerated in Parliament”.
Unfortunately for the party, not only did Conservative MPs fail to back the motion and “rebuke Islamophobia” but so did most Lib Dem MPs.
24 hours after publishing the EDM, just four of the party’s 15 MPs had bothered to sign the petition.
In addition, five MPs from other parties including Plaid Cymru, Alliance and the SNP backed the petition, bringing the total to nine MPs.

Huw Edwards is biggest mover among BBC top earners!
DT July 23 that was. (see ***)
Today:
Only this morning I heard on TalkTV that he is still on on half £ million year on sick leave after spending £35,000 on ‘explicit’ pictures from a home web camera of a boy he knew. When the boy’s parents found out, they complained direct to the BBC. The BBC did nothing and fobbed them off. It was only when in desperation did they find The SUN found this was a story worth telling… and how the BBC denied it! Not as if it has not happened before, or for the BBC worth worrying about.
The rest is history, in your papers now – in all the newspapers and even (finally) on the BBC News. And the report below is sourced from The Guardian, who must realise now, that the BBC is beyond any redemption and corrupted by money, greed and full of dicks.
BBC apologises to family at centre of Huw Edwards scandal.
“The BBC has apologised to the parents of a young person who made a complaint about the suspended BBC presenter Huw Edwards, admitting it should have acted more quickly.
The corporation launched a review into its complaints procedure after the scandal in July last year.
Edwards has not made any public statement since he was named as the BBC presenter accused of a string of allegations, including paying a 17-year-old for sexually explicit photos for several years since 2020.”

I wonder if BBC nabobs have their own HMRC hotline?
18 likes
I actually think that’s a reasonable way to organise things. Calling it a “VIP line” is pejorative. The facts are that people with a lot of money have highly complex tax affairs requiring specialised input from HMRC. They also pay a lot more tax than normal people.
Many people think tax is straightforward. That’s far from true and the amount owed can often be a matter of opinion and whether the taxpayer is prepared to contest HMRC with the risks involved.

Michigan vote tests anger over Biden’s Israel policy
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68409546
This is an interesting article. The BBC are actually trying to ‘blackmail’ Biden into changing his stance on Palestine using all the dirty tricks we’ve seen them use here a hundred times against the government.
What stands out about this is that they have dropped any pretence of trying to be impartial. It’s 100% anti-Trump and 100% pro-Palestine. All mixed in to a pot of bubbling agenda.
Just look at the typical, random voter they manage to find for comment. Who – just like all the fake ‘victims’ in Gaza – manages to come out with a statement right-on the BBC’s current agenda not list:
‘”As far as Joe Biden’s age, I’d rather have someone in office that forgets a few things than a criminal,” she said, addressing one of the concerns that has been raised over Mr Biden’s candidacy.’
Lets see which rising star they have lying-BBC-style through his teeth for this one:
The more sinister thing about this is that the subtle shift in favour of their agenda is because they are starting to get worried that the Democrats might not win. When this happens at the BBC, I’ve noticed it is a subtle shift across their entire output – not just some activist idiot deciding to do it himself. Which means there is some form of very strict guidelines and control going on from the BBC political commissars. I often wonder if they have a meeting to decide it which is then filtered down through their many management layers or there is one head-honcho who dictates it. I would love to see how it’s done.

Sir Michael Ellis, who was for a short while Attorney General for England and Wales, has this to say about the BBC:
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13133131/bbc-anti-semitic-reporting-gaza-al-ahli-michael-ellis.html
“Sir Michael Ellis said the BBC’s impartiality had been brought into ‘disrepute’ over its coverage of Israel and Hamas.
Opening a Westminster Hall debate on the subject, he warned that the corporation’s reporting had ‘fuelled the appalling rise of anti-Semitism’ and ‘harmed diplomatic efforts to bring an end to the violence’.”
A BBC spokesman of course dismissed the assertion. It seems sadly unlikely that this blinkered, biased corporation will be seeing the light anytime soon …

An opinion poll for More In Common finds people split almost 50-50 between thinking the BBC is pro-Israel or pro-Palestinian. Sir Michael Ellis, who was very briefly attorney-general in 2021, said yesterday ‘The BBC’s biased coverage… has steered (the public) in a more anti-Israel direction.’ ‘Biased’ nowadays seems increasingly to mean ‘you’re telling me things I don’t want to hear’.

One day Jesus decided to stroll down to the Pearly Gates. No sooner did he get there than St. Peter exclaimed, “Oh, I’m so glad you’re here, I need to go to the bathroom bad! Watch the Gates for me, will you?”
“But what am I supposed to do if someone comes?” Jesus asked.
“Have them fill out the intake sheet,” Peter said, pointing to his lectern. “I gotta run — ‘bye!”
“But —“ Jesus said, too late; Peter was out of earshot. Jesus was studying the intake sheet when he saw an old man tentatively approaching the Gates. “Welcome to Heaven, sir!” he said.
The old man stared. “Heaven — is it true? I’m in heaven?” he whispered. When Jesus nodded, the old man dropped to his knees and said, “Oh, how wonderful! Maybe now I can finally find my son!”
Jesus helped him to his feet and said, “I’ll be happy to let you in, but first I need to get some information from you so we know where to put you. Now, while you were on earth, what did you do for a living?”
“I was a carpenter,” the old man replied.
Jesus was struck by the coincidence, but made a note on the intake sheet and moved on to the next question. “About your family — you say you have, or had, a son, and you believe he’s here already, is that correct?”
“Well, I don’t know for sure,” the old man said. “We went our separate ways a long time ago, and I heard that he died. But he was a very good son, so I know that if he died, he’ll be here.”
Moved with pity for the old man, Jesus replied, “If he is here, we’ll certainly help you find him. Can you give us a description of him?” To which the old man replied, “Oh, he’ll be easy for you to recognize: he has nail holes in his hands and feet.”
Carpenter, good man, separated from family, nail holes — Jesus stared at the old man, dropped his pen and paper, thrust out his hands, and cried, “Papa!!!”
And the old man looked at him quizzically and said:
“ Pinocchio ? “

Not directly BBC – but a cut and paste by a former BBC journalist on twitter –
STARTS The UK is drifting, unhappy, losing faith in previously respected institutions (like the police), buffeted by extremists (often allowed to run amok), dismayed by decline, angry at the inability of the political class to do anything about it, despairing that the Westminster politico/media bubble pursues an agenda, issues and priorities (look at the obsession with Lee Anderson) which are not most people’s — and had enough of being lectured to by a disconnected, de haut en bas chattering class. Yet we have a Prime Minister and Leader of the Opposition incapable of speaking up for the moderate majority, who still have pride in their country and are desperate for strong leadership and guidance through the current morass — plus some hope/sign things will get better — all within the bounds of traditional British tolerance and fair play. This vacuum is dangerous.ENDS . …
The author is Andrew Neil . The ‘vacuum ‘ he refers to has been discussed here a lot . I thought the serious disorder would come after red labour has screwed thing up even worse than blue labour …. But now I’m not sure the current system will last to the election …..
The BBC has been responsible for firing up its Hamas followers – biased reporting has consequences which are starting to be played out … millions to be spent shielding MPs .
The BBC explains that it’s ’because Of the war in Gaza ‘…. A Goebells style redrafting of the truth . It’s because of Muslims – now beyond control because of a frightened / complicit plod , political class and media . The majority will one day say enough – and no ‘intelligence community ‘ will be able to stop it .77 brigade to note ‘community tension’ …
I can think of only one politician remotely capable of channeling the views of the silent majority … he has flaws … he may no longer up for the fight … he presents ( still ?) on GBnews – ….. Farage … there’s no one else

If Neil is writing this then that in itself is significant. We all know that he is a slightly to the centre right globalist and very much against populist democracy. Hence his falling out at the start of GBN when he unsuccessfully tried to steer it into being a more mainstream channel and less populist.
Nonetheless he is very plugged in and widely respected by throughout the MSM So if he is putting pen to paper to warn the neo liberal global establishment that their time is nearly up he must be very worried.
I’m not a fan of revolutions as you often end up with an even worse regime in charge than the one you revolted against but if something drastic doesn’t change in the UK soon we will become an Islamic country.

Rowling leads backlash over trans cat killer standing trial as woman (Telegraph) – this confusing modern nomenclature that’s come to the fore since David Cameron, followed by a string of left-liberal PMs posing as conservatives took power – for a moment back there I thought a transvestite cat had been on a murder spree. Pussy power.
Funny isn’t it… it’s regarded as highly offensive to abbreviate the term Pakistani, whereas the shortening of transvestite to trans is now de rigueur.
Cat lovers look away now
The story to which the Telegraph refers is of course: Cat sadist caged for killing a stranger… sexual pleasure from putting a cat through a blender has been jailed for life for murdering a stranger she lured to his death on a night out (freebie Metro) – the poor innocent cat may possibly have been a ‘She‘ but the killer in this case was – despite our liberal media’s woke journalistic skew – in fact a ‘He‘: Blake, a trans-gender woman who at times adopted a cat persona, had denied murder but was found guilty at Oxford crown court – saucer of milk for the prisoner in the dock? Seems there are some limits to official and media respect for self-identification. Surely the defence missed a trick there by not entering a diminished responsibilty due to mental incapacity plea. It’s all the rage, or so I hear.
One thing is for sure, our BBC won’t be splashing with this case or marking its anniversary. I’m not sure if social media can be blamed in any way – a situation which often excites our national broadcaster leading to empassioned calls for more censorship and regulation, but: ….judge said Netflix documentary Don’t F*** With Cats played a role in both killings (giveaway Metro)

And will it be telling the entire story of how Demonrats under Obama, very many of the Jewish faith such as Victoria Nuland engineered the Maidan coup in order to provide enrichment to others of their cabal such as Larry Fink of Blackrock who has been buying up Ukrainian farmland cheap now the farmers have been killed in the military action their party engineered?
There is an OT Bible story similar to this regarding King David and Uriah the Hittite 2 Samuel 11
The chapter ends with how Davids actions displeased God.
In the following chapter God makes plain how he is going to punish David for what he has done.
These two chapters deserve revisiting and those involved called out for their gross sin and what God says amounts to mass murder to satisfy their own greed and sinfulness.

I’m sorry but Cathy Ashton was so incompetent she was more or less removed from office and became a laughing stock she was so bad.
Most of her visits to Ukraine appear to be in the company of one Jewish heritage Demonrat – John Kerry adding further weight to the assertions of a cabal here at work.

TOADY Watch #1 – the lack of knowledge of BBC presenters is astounding!
Much huffing and puffing from the BBC over the £600 million of taxpayers money given to Local Authorities by central Government to help fund their essential services. It is not enough say the BBC and Local Authorities. The subject of Special Educational Needs (of children) was mentioned. I am surprised that the BBC presenters did not know that that funding requirement is met out of the education budget from the Department for Education via the Local Education Authorities controlled by the councils themselves.
You know you can trust the BBC … to pull the wool over your eyes.

A useful reminder of the opacity of school financing.
Academy trusts are supposed to operate as independent institutions free of council interference. But in fact the money goes from the DfE to the local council who then are supposed to give it on to the school. Why? Why introduce a non-performing, non-added value piece of bureaucracy? Schools are moving to a national funding formula so even more reason to cut out the dead wood.
To be fair to councils they do have residual responsibilities for children and many of these cost a lot of money and cannot necessarily be predicted. But when the government throws all its money down the drain of the NHS is there any wonder that every other public service is cash-strapped?

Sluff, it was said during Blair’s and Brown’s time in Government that – “Education, education, education” notwithstanding – the funding for schools was increased dramatically but the Dept. for Education spent half the money on itself and passed the rest to the LEAs. They then spent half the money received from central Government via the DfE on itself and divided the rest of the funds from taxpayers between the schools in its area of responsibility.
Amazing.
Is the situation any different now? I think we should be told.

…….but they have to fund all those equality, diversity, pride and trans initiatives somehow.
And retrofit lifts so all those disabled people can get upstairs in old schools.
Not to mention funding the Prevent strategy to ward off all that Far Right extremism…..
It’s a wonder there is any money left to teach ordinary kids ordinary things, like subjects.
Actually I’ll just mention this. Around 80% of a typical school budget goes on staff salaries. The money which has to be set aside for teachers future pensions is just under 24% of salary. Do the maths.
Hands up all those who knew that 19% of an entire school budget is for staff pensions? Almost as much as funding the entire school apart from staff costs. Maintenance, heating, lighting, water, repairs, school minibus, decorating, everything.
Just as I thought. Almost no-one.

The latest BBC victim group is that those with autism stand less chance of landing jobs.
Now it’s not a great affliction to have, granted. But on the other hand, if you are an employer, will such a person help team dynamics? Or empathy with customers? Quite possibly not.
I mention this because in ‘Silent Witness’ on the BBC, ever eager to tick boxes, they have a mute character who communicates by sign language only. We get subtitles when she is ‘talking’. But get this. She also has a full time ‘interpreter’ who sits around reading a book and then whirs into life only when communication is necessary. OK so it’s a drama but the BBC bods have included this. Who pays for two people in order to employ one with a disability? Does money grow on trees? Is this a not so subtle way of engendering support for spending even more taxpayers money on next-to-nothing?
All too often ‘disability rights’ are also ‘fleece the taxpayer rights’. A little harsh perhaps but a necessary reposts to the one-way-street on the matter that appears to be the unchallenged default position of the blank cheque.

I have never watched “Silent Witness”. This is because I had some personal experience of pathologists and coroners, and would not have been able to reconcile what I knew about their indolence and lack of imagination with the fictional crime busters. But I must say it sounds as if the show has degenerated so far that it no longer has any connection to reality. Much like the rest of the BBC,

They have to be seen to provide “balance”. Obviously the BBC does not have to do this, because it has a privileged position. GB News is getting reported by leftists to Ofcom on a daily basis. Ofcom is complicit, because it accepts these crackpot complaints, which means GB News has to devote management time to dealing with them. It’s all a fix by the Blob.

The BBC (Balestine Broadcasting Company – there is no letter ‘P’ in Arabic) reports that ‘Gazans (are) in survival mode with cold nights and food rations’. Undoubtedly, it is not a pleasant situation for civilians to be in. Meanwhile, according to the same BBC, the weather forecast for Gaza is as follows:
Wednesday: Sunny, with a high of 20C after a low of 11C overnight.
Thursday: Sunny, with a high of 22C with a low of 13C overnight.
Friday; Sunny, with a high of 23C and a low of 15C overnight.
One cannot help wondering whether there are homeless people and pensioners in this country who are also ‘in survival mode with cold nights and food rations’.

Heard an interesting debate on GB News in which I thought Peter Tatchell made the point very well – and repeatedly – that we should be free to robustly criticise and challenge ideologies. That’s not to be conflated with attacking individuals for what they believe – which is wrong. Think I’ve paraphrased that correctly.

Drax power station still burning wood!

UK avoids power cuts this long cold winter by using electricity from Drax power station to offset poor renewables power generation.
14 likes
Wood is a renewable digg ! The whole thing about Drax is the total hypocrisy of using petrol chainsaws and machinery to deforest entire areas, to then use diesel trucks to get the wood to the sawmills where fossil fuels are used to reduce perfectly good timber to pellets. They then have to use fossil fuels to dry the pellets before loading it onto trains powered by diesel to take it thousands of miles to ports where it is loaded on ships (heavy oil powered) to bring it across the oceans to Liverpool where it is loaded onto diesel powered trains (which run close enough to me to see them every now & again) which takes them to Drax to be burned – one enormous train every day.
They then make the ridiculous claim that this is ‘renewable’ and sustainable when it is clearly an outrageous raping of the Earth to satisfy melons who are too stupid to realise they are being duped.

I just LOVE it when the Lefty cretins unwittingly expose their extreme double-standards in stories like this. And even better, the BBC have promoted it to world news showing they are equally as bad.
‘The event’s advertisement specified a white dress code, but also had a line saying “Face control: White” – which was largely interpreted to mean the event was open only to white people.’
‘Backlash against the event was swift, with many on social media calling it “disgusting” and “racist”.’
And how many competitions/groups/BBC ‘features’ are black only BBC ?. Google shows me many. Why aren’t THEY disgusting and racist ?.
This is why I detest the ethics of the Left so much : they have the ultimate double-standards. As we keep saying, it’s only wrong when people they don’t like do it. They are motivated by hate and spite. Nothing else.

The Lib Dems have been left humiliated this morning after their latest attention-seeking press stunt completely flopped.
24 hours ago with great fanfare, the party launched a new campaign against Lee Anderson, encouraging MPs to sign a parliamentary motion decrying his “Islamophobic comments”.
The Early Day Motion called on the Commons to censure the Ashfield MP, accusing his attack on the Mayor of London of being “Islamophobic, damaging, divisive and risk bringing the House collectively into disrepute”.
It added a final demand that Mr Anderson should come to the House and apologise for his remarks.
In a press release, the Lib Dems called on Conservative MPs and the Government to back the motion, adding that they “must show that Islamophobia is not tolerated in Parliament”.
Unfortunately for the party, not only did Conservative MPs fail to back the motion and “rebuke Islamophobia” but so did most Lib Dem MPs.
24 hours after publishing the EDM, just four of the party’s 15 MPs had bothered to sign the petition.
In addition, five MPs from other parties including Plaid Cymru, Alliance and the SNP backed the petition, bringing the total to nine MPs.

—————
Offence motivated by hatred
320.1001 (1) Everyone who commits an offence under this Act or any other Act of Parliament, if the commission of the offence is motivated by hatred based on race, national or ethnic origin, language, colour, religion, sex, age, mental or physical disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity or expression, is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for life.

Where hatred = “the emotion that involves detestation or vilification and that is stronger than disdain or dislike”.
