Maybe somebody can help me At the next
general election will there be any party that
doesn’t accept that’s inevitable that the UK
will become part of a greater European caliphate .
And that we should accept it.
F*** whoever decided that England should not have
the cross of St George on their shirts, should be strung up !
St George is
the patron saint of ENGLAND. I am surprised that the BBC
has not told the FA . That they wont show the England
matches unless the players go down on their knees . And
their shirts have a Crescent on it. In the name of diversity !!
Hello MarkyMark
Its Nato as the bbc call it (always), instead of NATO
Not expanding! HA HA HA HAH !
Foscari.
I reckon they have tried this New Cross out to see the reaction.
If it’s more or less accepted here on Airstrip One they can then do what they originally wanted to do which will be a ‘rainbow coloured cross’
Anybody who then complains will be labelled the usual, bigot-far right and the rest.
What next, a rainbow coloured Union Jack?
Hmm.
If it is flown upside down does it mean ‘Hello, Sailor’?
Wirral Council (Merseyside) have banner the display of the St George cross flag in their schools.
Time to up the doom and gloom and evil Tories narrative at the BBC.

Hello Sluff
Sorry just saw your comment, i’d commented below also
Great minds…etc.
I always think duplication is much preferred over inertia.
“On World Down’s Syndrome Awareness Day, she, along with two other mothers, say Down’s syndrome is “an ability, not a disability”.”

OK then…let ’em drive the car home then or rewire a plug…or just cross the road on their own.
You ask for the the moon on a stick!
Great. So will they use their ‘ability’ to pay for all of the required care?
Or is that burden to be passed to the taxpayer. Shall we say £50k p.a in perpetuity?
PS I have enormous sympathy for parents when they are at absolutely their wits end. Just spare me this total woke b*****k*.
Daft lefty Mariella Frostrup lapping it up on Times now interviewing a Brit-Indian comedian who thinks we must deconstruct the systemic racism that is Britain…and yes brown people can be racist…er…to other brown people…not whites….he is naturally attacking the Tory race traitors.
He won’t be voting for Sunak and the other ‘coconuts’ of course.
Oh…no wonder…it was Nish Kumar…the breadroll man.
Ban laughing!
Crikey, Nish is still a thing?
So off in the caaahhh yesterday to recue one of the outlaws from an anychess hospital. Being a masochist I put radio 4 on to hear a report from sudan which went:
Sudan blah blah blah rape blah rape rape sudan blah more rape sudan sudan rape rape rape even more rape…
Call me old-fashioned, but, I think they were trying to imply that there was a bit of rape going on in Sudan (obviously by evil males). But what the bBC never thought about asking themselves is why would you want these people over here?
Atlas I can’t help but notice the BBC has ignored the Sudan conflicts for a long time. As compassion fatigue is beginning to set in re: Gaza are they putting this front and centre to keep migration issues fresh?
Displaced people in Sudan = 6.5 million
Ignore the BBC VeryIffy logo and look at the header picture here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68625344
Under what possible circumstances would this poor woman be pushing a pushchair *across* the walkway rather than along it? Why would she do that? And why would anybody think she would? Picture editor is an idiot.
Hello Lunchtime
The facts must be true as its by Head of statistics at BBC Verify lol
Selling drugs?
Maybe it is underpass 4 and 3/4?
There are reports that French troops have deployed to Ukraine via Bulgaria. The Bulgarian B News carried the reports together with photos of the soldiers being loaded onto a commercial articulated lorry. Numbers suggested 200 of the French Foreign Legion “unicorn” group.
“Russia has been accused of hiring vulnerable unemployed men from India and other South Asian countries as combatants to fight its war with Ukraine. Al Jazeera has already reported about hundreds recruited from Nepal, at least 12 of whom have died in the war.14 Mar 2024”
A down on his luck Punka Wallah or Untouchable would seem a dubious choice to drive a T-14.
Not that Britain would ever hire soldiers – strictly speaking mercenaries, as defined by Article 47 of Protocol I of the Geneva Convention – from a country such as Nepal. Nor would we do so for two centuries. Or use them in the First and Second Sikh Wars and Indian Rebellion of 1857 to fight for us against other Indians. No no no no no, that’s totally different.

Another article which deliberately omits a part of the story of extreme relevance concerning the mistreatment of a Jewish child in a childrens hospital and it’s pretty obvious who the perpetrator is, and why they did it, it’s also appears obvious that little will happen to the guilty party as the hospital is woke and stupified.

“As the Cost Of Living Crisis continues, the REALITY for MANY in the UK remains a choice between heating and eating.
Absolute BS this is a socialist PR script and Cost of Living Crisis a lefty PR term
The actual reality is almost everyone in UK eats well cos food is so cheap
Heating for poor is still relatively cheap due a network of government subsidies and grants
The actual CHOICE is to keep in expensive high rent urban areas and not to go to the family home, often cos parents/grandparents are in Africa.

TOADY Watch #1 – diction and enunciation, Sean, don’t catch bad habits from your BBC colleagues
Sorry this is late but busy day … again! Don’t know how I found the time to go to work, back in the day. Sean Farrington has not been at the BBC very long but already he has picked up some bad habits, probably from his colleagues. He introduced a contributor this morning as Sinneke Fawalaka; the South African woman’s name is actually Tinneke Frikkee. She is a fund manager at Waverton. Good diction and enunciation from her, knows her stuff, too: no ummhhing and erhing from Tinneke.
Poor old Amol Rajan had a very sore throat and raspy voice this morning, might be off sick tomorrow.
All day today, the main BBC story has been the feminist win that it was unfair to expect women to wait as long as men for their state pension,
The funny thing is the BBC have not opened a HYS on the matter on the webshite..
I wonder of what they are afraid? Hahahahaha.
Men and women should be uniting at why the pension age is being raised for anyone, especially with labour saving technology, instead it’s a divide and rule situation.
If people live to 90, instead of 60, then there are a lot more costs

I couldn’t care less what he did as a student, I’m more concerned with what he has, and hasn’t, done since then.
And those feminists at the bbc, silence on this one no doubt cos he is black innit:

The outfit became even more X-rated when her husband proceeded to pull her tights down in order to reveal the top of her bottom.”

BBC Headline:

LOTS of news, information and facts in that one which tells the reader why Israel are attacking Hospitals.
Another one from this BBC slimebag who has been accused of anti-semetic biased reporting in the past. But of course the BBC allow her to continue unchecked churning out propaganda like this.
Shame on you and your ‘journalistic ethics’ BBC.
Far-Left activist scumbags. All of them.
On Toady this morning, weirdly there was a feature about the high number of rubberised cross channel ferry arrivals yesterday.
Cue an ‘impartial’ voxpop in Dover. From which I gathered the following.
1. Dover is entirely populated by women, typically working in ‘the community’.
2. Everyone in Dover understands and supports all the migrants.
So there you have it. On the BBC so it must be true.
Dover MP Natalie Elphicke told the Commons that the BBC’s “shocking report” contained the “breath-taking” disclosure of free French public bus services being used to ferry migrants from camps to Dunkirk beaches.

Sluff ,

The BBC disgust me , problem is a lot of the sheep believe all the Propaganda.
Good God : look at this:
‘A museum tried reverse misogyny. Now a man is suing’
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-australia-68572280
Another incredible-morphing headline which changes to:
‘Mona: Australian art museum sued over women’s-only exhibit’
The article is utter drivel. They are not trying ‘reverse mysoginy’, they are bitter and nasty feminsts who are doing it 100% to spite men. It’s 100% misandry.
We’ve seen plenty of times how these extreme hypocrites react when the boot is on the other foot.
But of course what elese can you expect when you let people like this loose to write the news:
So remember everyone : according to the BBC and that clueless looking clone in the picture, there is no such thing as ‘misandry’ now. It’s ‘reverse misogyny’.
Absolutely ridiculous.
Google wiped out white history with AI in one single day!
Genocide will happen!
Users said the firm’s Gemini bot supplied images depicting a variety of genders and ethnicities even when doing so was historically inaccurate.

I realise I’ve been a bit slow, but after I read an article about Trump, I realised why the Democrat judges are giving such massive and totally unprecedented fines. They are trying to cripple his presidential campaign by taking away all the funding. In accordance with Bidens pledge.
Funny : I thought someone as independent and unbiased as the BBC might have pointed that out to me before now.
Formerly known as age concern and other tired old red and white banners edition
There’s a cautionary old saying about your mouth not writing cheques your body can’t cash. Something to consider more carefully perhaps as one advances in age.
Which women might get state pension compensation? – asks our BBC, leading a mainstream populist outcry – I thought we didn’t approve of populism?
£35billion WASPI sting… New government crisis over payouts for 2.6m women failed over pensions (freebie corporate adsheet Metro – and what’s not to like for this title’s mainstay – those big supermarket chains and sunshine holiday retailers – what have they got to lose from millions of elderly lady shoppers suddenly receiving a nice big windfall?)
Our former Goldman Sachs office boy Rishi Sunak – currently temping as our PM between more lucrative permanent assignments – has never been particularly slow to splash our cash and to borrow yet more on the British national credit card.
Lockdown furlough payments – just swipe that card here, Sir. Ukraine war ammunition – that’ll do nicely.
And so it is that even our Number 10 lackey loyalist Daily Express feels emboldened to join the popular chorus: Pay Up! Millions of women are owed pension payouts
Report says most victims of botched State pension age hike should only get up to £2,950 – but ministers won’t even commit to that (Daily Mail)
The Labour party may be laughing their all the way to an even broker Treasury later this year: Women’s pension victory, now… Pay them what they are owed… Millions born in 50s are due compo but fears Tories will short-change them (Labour-supporting Daily Mirror)
At this rate our Rachel Reeves: ‘Britain should be embarrassed’ it has never had a female chacellor, says Rachel Reeves as she eyes up role (Independent) – may just find herself to be a sad Old Mother Hubbard
Old Mother Hubbard
Went to the cupboard
To give the poor doggie a bone
But when she got there
The cupboard was bare
So the poor little doggie had none
Waspi women demand help from Labour… ombudsman says millions of women should now receive up to £10 billion compensation (left-leaning ‘i’ newspaper) – and this is precisely what you get when you have rule by lawyers and unaccountable managerial bodies that do not directly ever have to face the voters. They can virtue-signal to their hearts content and write the big cheques they can rely on others to cash.
1990 – in the Barber case (17 May 1990), the European Court ruled that occupational pensions were deferred pay and, as such, schemes were required to treat men and women equally. As a result, schemes “equalised” their retirement ages, often at age 65, and adjusted their benefits accordingly (Sackers – a somewhat unfortunately named pensions specialist law firm) – well, that’s a taste of the rule by lawyers as opposed to the rule of law as decided by parliament – diktats handed down by a foreign unaccountable court at that.
Hey just a minute… Mr AsI had believed for years that his State pension would come at the age of 65. He planned for his retirement on that basis.
However: State Pension age is gradually increasing for men and women, and will gradually rise to 67 for those born on or after April 1960. (Age UK – formerly and better known as Age Concern)
Has he got a case?
The inequality bit in Waspi – The Women Against State Pension Inequality – always irked Mr AsI, since women were indeed being equalised in terms of their pensions – only it was from 60 to equality with men at 65 – that was the bit of equality they didn’t like. And there perhaps is a lesson for us all in terms of support for the cause for endless equality.
How about – Male Equality Rights Demanded – Merd…?
Do you like the sound of it – just imagine me taking that emblazoned on a big banner to the European Court in Strasbourg?
And imagine our press getting on board with my campaign
I can see it now: Merd Men hit by state pension age change say £30,000 compensation not enough (Telegraph)
Thousands of Merd Men hit by pension age rise must be compensated now, landmark report says (Independent)
I could have my protest photo call beside the statue of Bobby Moore outside Wembley – of course that closeby St George’s flag would have to be replaced by my new brown and beige Merd campaign logo – but I’m sure the FA, Gareth Southgate and their diversity united team lads wouldn’t mind ditching that tired old red and white banner: The FA and Nike were blasted last night for changing the traditional St George’s flag on England football tops (The Sun)
In the Spring a young man’s fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love (Locksley Hall by Alfred, Lord Tennyson) Sadly Mr AsI finds this morning his thoughts inevitably turned to retirement…
Ah, Last of the Summer Wine… Foggy Dewhurst… Cleggy… and… and… Compo!
Women hit by state pension age change throw down gauntlet to Keir Starmer – and say they expect Labour to pay compensation (‘i’)
And to think raising the female retirement age – rather than lowering the male retirement age so to achieve equality, was done as an intended money saving strategy by our masters of the public purse. The best laid plans of mice and governments, eh?
I’m beginning to think the best way out of this mess we find ourselves in is to bring on the crash sooner – have the welfare state collapse under its own weight of unfulfillable promises. With no more benefits available one senses some intractable problems such as our hyper-immigration may be abated.

The Crown Estate, whose revenue helps determine an annual dividend paid to the royal family, reported a 41% jump in profit to a record £442.6 million ($559 million), largely because of income from fresh leases for six offshore wind farms, according to a statement.28 Jun 2023
Last night, those who will live next door to the wind farms in Wales and Lincolnshire accused the Royal Family of hypocrisy, after the Prince of Wales described them as a ‘horrendous blot on the landscape’ while his father called them ‘useless’ and ‘a disgrace’.20 Apr 2012
The BBC et al deny any link but previously when the guilty party was the military….
‘Did sonar cause unexplained whale deaths?’.
‘Why sonar may harm whales and dolphins’
The Guardian….
‘US Navy banned from using sonar that harms dolphins and walruses’
Same approach to 5G claims….BBC says it is dangerous conspiracy theory to say 5G can harm your health…but this is the same BBC that once promoted the dangerous conspiracy theory that mobile phones were dangerous….
‘Mobiles ‘may cause brain cancer”
The BBC hid away a report on an arson attack on a Jewish home in London by someone shouting anti-Semitic insults…not on front page, nor UK page but on London page.
Similarly can’t find anything on this…
‘An NHS Trust is investigating accusations that pro-Palestine nurses denied correct care to a nine-year-old Jewish boy.’
Now we don’t know what the result of any investigation will be but the BBC’s silence is interesting and telling. Pro-Palestinian nurses, a Jewish boy…..why would the BBC not bother with this when we know if it had been pro-Israel nurses and a Muslim boy it would be headline news? Then again pro-Israel nurses with badges to that effect would have been sacked or beaten up by now….and again not reported by the BBC I expect….or, like the bus incident, it would have been the Jews’ fault….so provocative those badges.
Shhhhh … “Khadijah Mellah: Hijab-wearing jockey wins on Haverland and makes history at Goodwood”

1 migrant in. 1 MP out & 1 Lord out. Repeat.

No planes. And make sure they have to buy the dinghy they’re forced to paddle away from the UK. At an inflated price. (See what I did there?)
You blew it up out of all proportion.
Today continues as the Labour Party house magazine….a torrent of pro-Labour stories this morning.
Domestic violence…we heard that prosecutions had fallen….‘to a level far below that of when Sir Keir Starmer had been in charge of the prosecution service’.
They wheeled in Emily Thornberry for a comfortable chat….asked why the Tories were failing so badly…lol…..She said there was a mismatch between police and prosecution service….the police were putting forward cases with gaps in the evidence, there was insufficient evidence to get a successful prosecution. Justin Webb rolled on regardless ignoring the obvious problem with that.
Such as….Isn’t that the crux of the matter, especially as Labour plans to give the police the power to prosecute cases? If the police are failing now how can they do the job themselves when Starmer comes to power?
Webb also asked her about the Waspi women and if Labour would cough up the billions they are claiming…Thornberry just blamed the Tories and Webb let her dodge the question.
Then we had the waste incinerator….apparently Labour and er, civil servants, are concerned about a conflict of interest given that Steve Barclay is MP for the area and environment minister whose signature is required to sign this off.
Hmmm…big story or not…given that he has nothing to do with the decision…..
‘Officials have raised concerns about the environment secretary’s role in a proposed waste incinerator in his constituency, the BBC can reveal.
Steve Barclay will not have any say over the planned project in his Cambridgeshire seat, which he opposes.’
Why is it a big BBC story when Barclay has been recused from the process already?
Just seems like chucking shit into the air about Tories in the hope some sticks regardless of merit. Almost a complete non-story given a very high profile by the BBC.
And we roll on and on….to Angela Rayner whose dodgy housing benefits were totally ignored by the BBC for long time until last night when Newsnight, known and respected for its integrity, balance and impartiality, gave her the chance to explan it all away….it’s all smears…I owe nothing she says.
lol…
‘Ms Rayner bought the former council house in Vicarage Road, Stockport for £79,000 in January 2007.
In September 2010 she married Mark Rayner, who owned a separate house nearby in Lowndes Lane.
She has described her Vicarage Road home as her “principal house” but said she did spend time at her husband’s home.’
That’ll be right….just popped in now and again to see my new husband….oh…and yes, my kids were registered as living at his house…did I forget to say that?
She claims she was unaware of tax laws…but her solicitor and the estate agent would have given her a heads up about possible liabilities.
We get the shouts of denial, the sob story and the ‘they’ve got it in for me’….but then way down the report we get….
‘The tax expert Dan Neidle has estimated that Ms Rayner could be liable for a Capital Gains Tax bill of £1,500. ‘
A casual observer might agree given the facts. Why does the BBC give her protestations so much credence and credibility?
Then some usual BBC rubbish…
Student loans…the BBC always suggests that the introduction of these has meant applications to be a student have dropped off and that students are terrified of the debt.
One..no, student numbers soared when student loans were introduced. Two…the ‘debt’ is not that frightening as they don’t have to pay it off if they don’t have the money basically….which is why student numbers soared. The expert actually had to explain that students don’t see this as normal debt…and it’s not. You may never pay a penny if your income is below a quite high level.
Then cancer rates…BBC….dreadful treatment…worst in the world blah blah blah…..expert…actually treating more than ever and a vast increase after the pandemic…3 million in one year…and huge investment in scanners and equipment to speed this up.
The BBC is always looking for scandal and if it can’t find one it will invent one.
Must be an election coming.

You can’t keep a good man down…..scary thing is big brother is waiting in the wings to take over Labour when the time is right. Surely, surely there’s someone out there who’s capable of representing the real person in the street and not the pampered and entitled PPE graduates who run things now.
Maybe one day the Labour Party will go back to representing the working man or woman once again….and the Tories to their real values rather than second guessing what the BBC and the Arch-Bishop of Canterbury would like all the time.
Speaking of which…scary and ludcicrous…but all too real….

LOL…the Guardian’s Simon Jenkins has always been a Putin fanboy….many years ago he was shilling for him and suggesting the fine fellow would step down and not keep on in power. How’d that go?
Simon is once again putting pen to paper to subtly big up his man by telling us how foolish we are in the West.
One comment caught my eye and I’m laughing still…
‘I sometimes think what fun it would be to spend a month as the London correspondent for a totalitarian state newspaper. The evidence of relentless failures by the British government would fuel my daily contrasts with the order and stability back home. I would ponder when these bickering politicians and their corrupt donors would fade to nothing. I would report on the excluded populists – the Johnsons, Andersons, Farages and Galloways – waiting in the wings to pounce, while Rishi Sunak twists and turns frantically to avoid an election.’
He could just get a job with the BBC…..kind of gives you a good idea of where the BBC’s reporting is coming from if you can quite reasonably compare it to that of a news provider from a totalitarian state intent on digging out the worst dirt on your cultural and political opponents.
