It seems the Director General of the BBC is consulting on future financing of the BBC . Consultation traditionally comprises a tick box disregard of unapproved comments or views – so our long war to end the Far Left Anti British BBC is a long long fight .

I can’t see any flag at the back of the England kit tonight.
Maybe somebody has playfully removed it (them)
its on the inside of the collar and its even worse

Kaiser.
I was looking where it was on the other kit which was on the outside at the back of the collar.
As you’ve shown, they’ve put it on the inside.
I had thought for a minute that they had cut the flag off.
Donald Trump media firm soars in stock market debut

Only read this to look for the BBC negativity and/or sneering. Sure enough:
4th paragraph all of it’s own as if it’s something of major importance:
‘Analysts say that is far more than the firm’s performance warrants.’
What analysts BBC ?. And what has it got to do with the story ?.
‘It says 8.9 million accounts have been created since the platform launched to the general public in 2022 as an alternative to mainstream sites such as Facebook, but it is not clear how many are active.’
‘It says’ phrased to cast doubt and again, the BBC negativity has nothing whatsoever to do with the story.
‘However, Prof Ohlrogge said the current share price is “far, far elevated above what anyone would consider its fundamental value”.’
Why would the BBC go actively chasing New York (= far left) ‘professors’ to get negative quotes ?.
The BBC’s bitter and unpleasant Natalie Sherman demonstrating why she got the job.
Amazing how the BBC will add their own commentry to the basic facts when it suits them. Absolutely pathetic.

Ha ha ha!
And one’s an ad for a model bike!
And watching those financial wizards and gurus, Sopes and Strumpers, is enough to make Normal citizens just forget these nonentities, and start watching real news on decent channels!
All the more reason to ditch the TV tax, when they’ll have to actually compete with real journalism as well after the Beeboids have imploded!
BBC £159 per person – paid under threat of prosecution.
‘However, Prof Ohlrogge said the current share price is “far, far elevated above what anyone would consider its fundamental value”.’
It has been a dark wet evening in north London and I had to drive around the north circular in 3 lane traffic. Street lights used to light up the carriageway but they have all been replaced by eco-bulbs which leave the tarmac as dark as night. It was impossible to see the road markings indicating the road lanes and was an absolute danger, especially at Hanger Lane. If the BBC wanted to work out the hidden costs of net zero, a good start would be the price of street lights that no longer do what they are supposed to and whether it has caused an increase in accidents.
But this is of course against the BBC woke agenda and I don’t suppose any of the dollies whose photograph has been featured on this site would be interested.
Same on the motorways in 3rd world Britain
It must be far worse than when I used to do that trip Debs!
Nowadays, the ‘new’ approved headlights are a danger to just about everyone who has the misfortune to even glance in the direction of oncoming traffic!
Mind you, I only discivered the other day, that new car automatically dips when it sees headlights coming at me! I think I still yearn for that little button on the floor of my old Mini – you could change gear using it if you were slightly ‘disorientated’…
Scrobs, those automatic dippers are part of the problem in rural areas, as they dip later than a human would choose to do.
Scrobs I noticed that last night, first night time driving in quite a while.
I have a new company car which is petrol, but, everything possible is electric, including the handbrake, which I still don’t trust. You do not yank it, it’s a button…
If I am on a digital hill, maybe I will trust a digital handbrake, otherwise…
It took 2 days of watching youtube to learn how to operate the bloody car and its many features, including finding where the mileage readout was hidden and switching off the murderous “lane correction”.
this is a “safety feature” believe it or not and insisted on by the EU recently that all cars have this, now though, one can switch it off thank God. On earlier models one cannot.
If you change lanes without indicating, for example in an emergency, as one traumatised user posted online when a mattress fell off a lorry in front of them on the motorway at 70 mph, this wonderful safety feature decides that you have fallen asleep and drifted out of your lane and will briskly take over the steering and strongly steer you back into the mattress.
Bloody unbelievably dangerous. It even makes “mistakes” on single track country roads and steers one into the verge according to another traumatised user.
Yet, the one useful safety feature, a gate between reverse and first gear, is missing, and first and reverse gear are side by side…leaving one open to changing into reverse gear whilst driving forward, or when selecting first as I did in a queue but finding reverse gear and sending one into the car behind…..
And. like so many new cars, no “safety” feature such as a spare wheel and tyre, because we will never hit a pot hole and get a puncture, will we ?
Debs and Zeps, you’re right both times!
I’d forgotten whether I should check the lane alteration bit, so that’s on the list now!
I do like the parking assist though, as since I gave up my 36,000 miles a year habit, my parking skills have deteriorated to blunt stupidity…
As for the lights changing though, they seem to be pretty quick to me, but I was fiddling around for ages in the dark, wondering what was happening!
While waiting at some queue, I counted over seventy little lights of all descriptions in the front alone! Our old Fiat 500, c1965, had about three and four if you were lucky…
Well Scroblene – riding a motor bike these days is a bit of a death wish – however good I might be – there are serious attempts to kill me at least once a week – and as for the third world homicidal delivery drivers – their life expectancy must be as low as e bikers ..
Judging by the speeds that some bikers get up to in the 30mph section outside ‘The Turrets’, I’d suggest that a death wish is quite high on the minds of some riders!
I understand that your machine isn’t one of those, and therefore, like I would, you’d prefer that you weren’t going to be cut up, undertaken, obstructed etc., by drivers, but it’ll never improve I’m afraid!
After reading the above, I think I’ll hang on to my 17 year old Toyota Rav with its 104 thou mileage. Having to resort to YouTube tuition to get a car to function is a step too far for my ageing brain.
You’ll be fine with that, Brissles!
I swore I’d drive our Golf into the ground, until the MOT started to get more and more queasy each year, and even as recently as December, I was going to keep it forever, having done a spreadsheet about the size of a small rugby pitch!
Decided to change for the ‘final’ car as it’s higher to get in and out of for Senora O’B, (and me), and should see us out…
Your RAV already is high enough, so you have no need to worry!
And Zeps, I still haven’t finished readiing the manual for newcar, because something happens every day or so, and I have to dip into millions of pages to find the answer!
If the BBC ever did a motoring programme called, say – Top Gear, I’d be an avid watcher, but there’s no such programme like it used to be, and anyway, we never watch the BBC, it’s rubbish…
Deborah:
If you have to navigate the Hanger Lane gyratory, you have my sincere sympathy.
Oooooh noooooooooooo…!
Here’s where ‘The Castle’ pub used to be, and imortalised in a post from years ago…
http://scroblene-webley-bullock.blogspot.com/2012/04/guys-dolls-and-safe-deposit-boxes.html
Hanger Lane is just along the A40 going West, and now I’ve seen the sad demise of such a fabulous pub, I need to lie down in a darkened room and just remember the good old days…
Ofcom’s relentless persecution of GB News continues.
There’s a bit of me which hopes BBCOFCOM does cancel the GBnews licence – just like with RT. It helps to support the view held be me that this is not a ‘free’ country – it’s not democratic – those are just words constantly fired at us proles to make us think we are in a better place .
Ah ah – you might say – the very fact you can express such views disproves your belief – but I say – this site is here for the time being – and 77 brigade can pull the plug whenever it chooses – there is no appeal against being cancelled….
Closing GBnews will be sold as an uptick against ‘hate’ and ‘bias’ …. And I’m sure there will be closer clips to support that .
However – I guess that the most ‘opinionated ‘ presenters on GBNews are now gone – banished to the internet and residue is now the ‘approved’ and commercially acceptable – which was inevitable …
4 years ago … under Jeremy Hunt …. “Russia’s RT and Sputnik barred from UK conference on media freedom
This article is more than 4 years old
Foreign Office says news outlets refused entry over ‘active role in spreading disinformation’”
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jul/09/russia-rt-sputnik-barred-conference-media-freedom
The international human rights lawyer Amal Clooney will attend in her capacity as Britain’s special envoy on media freedom. She will convene the first meeting of an independent panel of experts to look at how to strengthen national legislation to protect journalists.
The final guest list has yet to be published, but officials said the only countries not invited to the conference were North Korea, Syria and Venezuela.
Morning Fed, I imagine I’m passing on a hint which most on here will already be aware of, but in the interests of :-
A good friend of mine has assured me that it is possible to watch the RT livestream on “Odysee” (Similar to youtube). No signing in; no details need be given.
I may even try it myself one day. I hear that it’s worth watching in order to form a balanced opinion on matters Ukranian.
Mick – thank you – when RT was licenced I used to pop in from time to time to gauge the approved message from the owners . I also secretly admire ‘good’( skilful ) propaganda being fired at me ….
Unfortunately the UK monopoly broadcaster is so obvious that it is beyond propaganda and is now doctrine everywhere – all the time – with no challenge – ever – not even -in my opinion public ‘debates ‘like Question Time – which must be modelled on a Russian /nazi type model …
Strange that this character describes news readers as ‘neutral ‘ – they never are…
I urge everyone who can to watch a Triggernometry debate on ‘ Is immigration good for Britain’.
The two teams are Matt Goodwin and Konstantin Kisin arguing that it isn’t and Aaron Bastini and dear old Polly Toynbee arguing that it is. The debate is chaired by Katy Balls a Spectator regular , a commentator who in my opinion still thinks old style right v left politics. I hope she got an insight into how British politics is changing!
The audience was anti immigration at the start and more so by the end. I think Polly , who has lived in the Guardian BBC bubble for decades, thought she was at a far right rally and had probably never seen so many people gathered together who didn’t agree with her!
The case for immigration relied as usual on all sorts of nonsense like collapse of the NHS , other public services , the immense unquantifiable benefits for our culture , how much more expensive everything would be without low skilled low pay immigrants, how taxes would increase, how universities would collapse, how leaving the ECHR would turn us into a pariah state etc etc
In contrast the case against was highly factual and both Kisin and Goodwin demolished the other side with numbers. Goodwin bluntly told the audience that only by all those opposed to globalisation coming together could it be defeated.
Unfortunately for Polly her normal saviours in BBC debates , a friendly leftist chair or a specially selected audience , weren’t there to save her and she looked exactly what she is a foolish fossil.
Bastini thought he was at the hustings and spent most of his time attacking the Tories for all manner of things. He was astonished when KK told him that everyone in the hall agreed that the Tories were crap. Katy Balls seemed shocked, her little world was wobbling on its axis. The room erupted in applause. Bastini , like Katy and Polly, has not understood that politics in the UK , as elsewhere , is shifting . Left and right are no longer the correct descriptors , it’s the globalists v the nationalists.
The nationalists outnumber the globalists four to one and if they can unite , a big if , and if the democratic process holds, another big if as we see in the USA, they will win hands down. Unfortunately the globalists have all the levers of power and will use them ruthlessly to preserve their elite status. They know democracy is bad for them.
“dear old Polly Toynbee”
Old, yes… but dear?
Is she dead yet ?
Well I was surprised to see her . Not watching the BBC or reading the Guardian it’s a long time since I last came across her. But there she was and she spouted all the same stuff as she did years ago, learnt nothing , forgotten nothing ( allowing for dementia of course) .
She’s no Norwegian Blue, regrettably.
She’s a Tuscany Red.
And not of the drinkable kind either.
Brain dead.
I was being ironic.
Double – I remember that the argument put forward across the years – from the 60s onward – was that ‘this batch of immigrants ‘ is a ‘one off ‘ and nothing will change – and ‘everyone likes a curry ‘…
But then the implicit disapproval of aliens arriving suddenly turned into criticism of any dissent by labelling (us) as racists . I word I no longer care about – but is still used as a weapon – and legally enforced .
The show is now over – the future of white British is done – it’s dressed up as ‘diversity ‘ and ‘multi ethnicity ‘ but we’ve passed the point of control of illegal or legal invasion – and every day the effects are reported without this connection ….
Population at 100 million by 2030 ? Probably – but no one will really know ….( see Eire )
I agree we , the indigenous Brits , as a minimum face a country riven by factionalism with no sense of community . It is questionable if a liberal welfare society can exist in these circumstances. In my view if adversity hits , a prolonged economic depression , society will likely crumble.
However, if immigration continues at the present level and we keep being invaded by Islam the future will be much worse than I have outlined above. There will be a war and it will be many more rivers than the Tiber which flow with much blood.
So getting rid of this looney elite , the old politics, and replacing them with something like Reform or better , a politics which does what the voters want, will reduce the bloodshed and be better than continuing down the path post Blair.
For Blair read ‘the failure of Major’.
Back then, I had a friend in my firm who was a staunch socialist, but we always put ‘politics’ aside as we both wanted to earn a living, and anyway we got on well.
I can remember sitting with him having a beer, and bemoaning that utter stipidity of the Conservatives back then – they were in exactly the same state as they are now, a hopeless case, and we didn’t need the BBC, who were much better to listen to than they are now, to argue for a change, as most Conservatives were of the same opinion!
We all know that Starmer will get into Downing Steet at the end of the year – my 77th year in fact, and I’m resigned to the fact that GB Inc will never be the same from thereon, despite all the efforts of Reform, who I will support.
Hopefully, after a few years, I’ll be too doolally to worry about Fick Ange, Abbott, Strummer and co., totalling the economy and wrecking the aspirations of Normal Indigenous British Citizens.
But if any crazed, ugly Muslim comes around here belching his hatred, I’ll just smash his ugly face in with the home-made hardwood club I have just by the front door!
Feel better already…!
I did not realise we were at war ?

Disaster after container ship collision – reports the freebie Metro
President Biden said it appeared to have been a “terrible accident” – insists the Times – Joe then went on to get changed into a nice clean diaper and have his favourite peanut butter and Jell-o sandwich for supper – I jest of course.
In our post-911 world it is of course of paramount importance that we trust our authorities to distinguish for us between unfortunate happenstance and malicious acts of deliberate terrorism: How we blew up Russia’s Kerch bridge, by Ukraine general who led operation… Despite no navy to speak of, Ukraine has chased Putin’s armada from the Black Sea and changed the face of war at sea forever (Telegraph going gung-ho); Ukraine intelligence agency says sea drones carried out Kerch Bridge attack (the latter headline dated August 2023 from our selectively peace-loving Guardian)
Having established that the Baltimore bridge destruction was nothing more than an accident our BBC nevertheless has free rein to promote fear: Fears of disruption to global supply chains after Baltimore bridge crash
There’s a pleasing little juxatapostion of clashing headline reports to bust our comfortable mainstream narratives to be found in this morning’s Financial Times: President Biden said the government would “pay for the entire cost” of reconstructing the bridge (FT) – what… no insurance?
The US faces a Lizz Truss-style market shock if the government ignores the ballooning federal debt… independent fiscal watchdog, has warned (FT)
Some might say the left-liberal globalist FT’s notion of a: Truss-style danger for US – as, meanwhile, the pink paper happily gives geriatic Biden a pass splashing unlimited federal dollars into the Patapsco River, was some form of veiled shot across soon to be reinstated president Donald Trump’s bows – just like the protection racketiers who might warn… nice premiership you have there… it would be a pity if it got all broken… by a finacial market coup…
Before we sail on by the Francis Scott Key Bridge story – to concentrate on matters UK – we should note the giveaway Metro leads our BBC’s online press line-up this morning and it is that corporate ad sheet that clues us into the reason this story barges its way into so many of our tv news headlines and onto so many newspaper frontpages: Search for survivors as crossing collapses ‘like Hollywood movie scene’ (Metro)

There’s an ironic juxtaposition of sorts between individuals referenced in the Daily Express and the Daily Mirror frontpage top stories today.
Whereas the Mirror shrieks: TRAITORS… The Brits fighting for Putin – the Express focuses on: Chemical attacker given asylum despite failing Christianity test
Christianity test…? Is that like a driving test? When I slam my Bible shut I want you to quote firmly and steadily from First Thessalonicans in a safe and controlled manner.
We know some one who failed their emergency stop – but let’s not revert to the Baltimore bridge story.
The Daily Mail takes up the British news story: Judge doubted his account, he failed questions on Christianity and was convicted sex offender. But Afghan was STILL allowed to stay…
I’m reminded of those much quoted words of Donald Trump: “Our country is in serious trouble. We don’t have victories anymore. We used to have victories, but we don’t have them. When was the last time anybody saw us beating, let’s say, China in a trade deal?… The U.S. has become a dumping ground for everybody else’s problems… When Mexico sends its people, they’re not sending their best… They’re sending people that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing drugs. They’re bringing crime. They’re rapists… And some, I assume, are good people.” (Washington Post)

The good thing about the NHS is that you don’t have to worry about the costs of being ill. The bad thing is that you might die waiting for the “free” treatment.
Nothing is free in this cruel world. There is always a cost.
Have to say that the NHS hospital in Hastings, ‘The Conquest’, has been in charge of Senora O’Blene twice in the past month for several days, and we couldn’t have asked for better care anywhere!
They’ve been fabulous, especially as the consultants spend ages explaining issues and what they’re up to! I had to drag the Senora away from the Staff Nurse, as he was irresistable to her and incredibly helpful! All the nurses and auxiliaries were just perfect!
You’d never admit that Hastings was the most desirable town by the sea, but this hospital has just won our admiration, again, on all counts – especially as they’ve just rung up to ask how we’re, (she), are coping!
Come on Beeboids, forget your silly Verify and poking mullock at everyone who wants to make a crust, go out and praise a few decent NHS places, you can put it on expenses…
Scrobs, sorry to hear than the Senora hasn’t been well and I hope however lovely the hospital is, that she doesn’t need a return visit.
I think we all hope that when someone is very poorly, we get the best the NHS has to offer. The problems I hear of are the non urgent cases. A friend of mine and a retired senior consultant, once said to me, ‘show me anyone in any profession, who hasn’t made a mistake at work.’ We just don’t want the mistake to happen on us.
Scroblene – sorry to hear the health remains an issue – well done on having a decent hospital – my local one is consistently one of the worst in England …. I dread going to it …
Thank you Debs and Fed!
She’ll be OK as long as I can get to grips with the caring etc., and she’s over the worst thank goodness!
Luckily, she hasn’t spotted the bottle of red I have stashed away, but when she does, I’m sure recovery will surge in leaps and bounds!

Okay, some do start off with one but they dump everything overboard mid-Channel (other than their smartphones and cigarettes).

“Banksy: London tree mural covered in plastic and boards”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-68672630
“The mural was claimed by the street artist on his social media but just days later was strewn with white paint.”
“Islington council said the plastic and boards had been put up by the building’s owner, not the council.”
So what are the boards at the side for? Are they going to charge admission?
Come on Bansky, paint the boards

“Lost IRA film shows planting and detonation of bomb”
Lost? Yeah like it’s valuable heritage that’s been miraculously saved.
Looks like an intern created the flashy web page.
Apparently this film is being put out on bbc 4 on Wednesday night – with that ‘saint’ Martin mcgiunnes showing his true self . Burn in hell Martin …
Making and planting bombs to kill innocent people and children .
And because of third world arrivals Ireland isn’t Ireland any more – all that blood and pain for nothing ….
I’ve often thought why the IRA wouldn’t care about any red lines in pursuit of their objective of a united Ireland, yet have done nothing about the relentless flood of third world immigration?
BBC Technology: “Data centre power use ‘to surge six-fold in 10 years'”
National Grid boss says it’s “becoming ‘constrained’ and ‘bold action’ was needed to create a network able to cope with ‘dramatically’ growing demand […] Some studies have warned that the AI industry alone could consume as much energy as a country the size of the Netherlands by 2027.”
Meanwhile Bill Gates at another climate summit is telling people that the European grid will have to be three times bigger than it is today.
If we got rid of the BBC, Netflix, Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Amazon wouldn’t that make everything far more sustainable? Just an idea, because I care for the planet.

BBC Culture: “More living people than dead people were depicted on statues and sculptures in 2023, according to new data seen by BBC News.”
Seems a bit of a niche item, and an odd data project to work on. Is this really about current vs historical VIPs worthy of public tribute? No of course it’s not: “More than a third of all monuments unveiled last year are of black people. But overall, the people depicted in public sculpture remain ‘overwhelmingly white men’, the charity said.”
Relentless social engineering.

Seems that the function of water companies is to pump raw sewage into rivers . I have an idea – why not just let water companies provide clean water and not charge for treating raw sewage – it’s all going= into rivers anyway – water bills could be halfed by not charging for raw sewage treatment …
Blue labour government – fix the problem ? No chance …
Anglian Water: owned by consortium which includes Canada Pension Plan Investment Board and two Australian investment companies.
Northumbrian Water: ultimately owned by CK Infrastructure Holdings of Hong Kong.
Thames Water: owners include Infinity Investments (Abu Dhabi), China Investment Corporation, Queensland Investment Corporation, and British Columbia Investment Management Corporation.
Wessex Water: owned by YTL Corporation (Malaysia)
Affinity Water: Morgan Stanley (USA) is one owner
Sutton and East Surrey Water: owned by Sumitomo Corporation (Japan)
As with energy, trains, ports, the profits go to overseas speculators and shareholders and the British people pay for it and suffer. All key infrastructure needs to be British owned.
And people love “wild” swimming !! Hope they all keep a stock of antibiotics handy ! In my day it was just swimming in the river without the fancy description. Growing up at the seaside very few locals would swim in the sea – we were too used to “floaters” passing by !

The RNLI won’t be getting a penny from me and I’m a sailor. I think there’s quite a few thinking the same since they became an illegal immigrant taxi service. It might explain the surge in the RNLI begging bowl advertising.
While we’re on giving money to charities, don’t whatever you do leave money as a percentage of your estate to charities in your will. They will give the Executors hell to get every last penny. If you must line their pockets, give them a fixed amount.
£0 sounds good, with some exceptions.
I click on their adverts ,
clicks cost THEM money
I didn’t know about the percentage issue, Flotsam, what are the issues please?
We want to support a local charity which does some pretty good work, but if, as you say, our executors have to go through hoops needlessly, then I’ll have another look at our wills!
For the record, The Red Cross are deluging YouTube with their ads! The RNLI can forget any donations too!
With a percentage of the Estate Charities can get ultra aggressive with family/Executors to maximise their share.
I’ve heard this too. It was the RSPB who were aggressively doing the chasing once they knew there was a substantial windfall up for grabs. I’ll still leave an amount to my chosen animal charity, but it certainly won’t be a percentage.
I’m leaving them some nuts and an old fat ball
Thanks Flotsam.

One more step in the muslim conquest of Britain and Christianity: The Pakistani muslim flag flying over Westminster Abbey. Enough to bring a tear to Jihadis everywhere.
And that, my friends, is why our country is finished.
That is why Brits are abandoning the C of E in their droves; a religion that believes in nothing, stands for nothing, can do nothing but apologise and abase itself under the ‘leadership’ of the supine, obsequious, obscene Archbishop of Cunterbury.
Islam, on the other hand, believes (violently) in itself and offers a virile, vibrant ideal to youngsters, which is why so many disaffected Brits are converting. Purpose and meaning and direction in this life, not to mention an endless supply of doe-eyed, pert-breasted virgins and endless decadence in the next.
Gonna be a bloodbath some day …
A one sided massacre. And we all know who the victims will be.
The invaders won’t even need to fight. Demographics, immigration, birth rates and the indifference of the native population will hand them victory on a plate.
Don’t forget that the police will arrest anybody who even thinks of defending themselves.

Unfortunately it would seem the rotten school at WIndsor has been indoctrinating its alumni with the evils of Marxism for quite some time.

As these daft diversity, pc, woke etc departments keep on growing (such as in the nhs) we can expect them to become more and more extreme.
They’ve got all the low hanging fruit such as the Dambuster dog and are working their way through other stories to find a reason to ban them. Markymark has a couple of examples above. Mary Poppins is another.
They have to find these ‘examples’ of racism or whatever to justify their existence otherwise there’s nothing for them to do.
Then they need more staff to root out these offending articles who must look for even more micro grievances.
These types must be the only ones in the nhs that are increasing their output. It’s a sort of loop where they find something, they need more to investigate so they hire more and then they find more perceived offending which needs more people to go through more stuff to find ever more hate (in their minds)
They HAVE to find offence everywhere as a reason for their existence.

Really smart work getting at the truth in #Gaza by @SkyNews digital forensic team led by @howardcj and includ
@Chesh and @OliveLineham Worth watching
Or, is it?
Guessing a ‘digital forensic team’ is Sky’s version of Springster’s cubicle cubs?
Digital forensics = we looked on Google maps
Geolocated = we looked on Google maps
We examined claims = we looked on Google maps
Unverified = Google maps wasn’t loading
Sources confirmed = it was on the Guardian or NYT
Russian disinformation = it wasn’t on the Guardian or NYT
Case in point: “BBC Verify has analysed the moment of the collision between the Dali container ship and the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore”
Analysed = we drew a dotted line
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68667813
The dotted line ends at the bridge pier, I wonder how they worked that out.
6pm news – it seems a boat has knocked down a bridge . I wondered whereabouts in the UK it was . But then they said that 6 dead workers had been filling in potholes . Then I realised it wasn’t the UK at all – it was a foreign country in another continent 5000 miles away – the UK never fills in potholes ….5 minutes on that lead story ,,,
I’m sure that if the bbc put out the video of a coloured hand holding a big knife as he tries to kill a victim on a train – the hand will be white ….
Naturally – no description of the suspect … which always means coloured …
Meanwhile Trevelle Rowland, 33 has been charged with the murder of Fergany Mvuezolo in newhamistan on Sunday ….mr Rolland was arrested at Heathrow on Sunday afternoon – I wonder if he’d bought a single ticket …
A couple of things…This country used to be called England and it was Christian…
Somebody, either the useless FA or Nike thought it would be a clever idea to disrespect the England flag and give it the “rainbow makeover”. The commentariat have told us that this was done “To bring people together.” Blimey, if that was genuinely the case (which I doubt) then it has failed spectacularly.
Meanwhile, I believe in celebration of Ramadan, the appalling Archbishop of Woke, Justin Welby, has made toe curling speeches praising Islam and Westminster Abbey is flying the flag of Pakistan. What in the name of God are they thinking? This constant kowtowing to an aggressive, invasive culture is embarrassing.
It’s Easter this weekend, the most poignant time in the Christian calendar. Do you think someone should remind Welby. He hasn’t said much about Easter…perhaps it slipped his mind…
This weekend, I wonder how many mosques will be celebrating the resurrection of Jesus, giving out Easter eggs, hot cross buns and singing hymns. Hmm…
I’m guessing none…

Here is a chart the BBC will most definitely not be publishing.
It shows the Violent Crime Conviction Rate in Denmark by Country of Origin.
The first thing that jumps out is that the red chart bars represent countries of the Middle East and North Africa, i.e. muslim.
Orange is other African countries.
The dark blue are mostly European / Western.
Notice a pattern?
https://inquisitivebird.substack.com/p/the-effects-of-immigration-in-denmark
I happen to know that Denmark was silly enough to take several Palestinian refugees, and very many committed serious crimes.
I can’t see a catagory for Palestine, so I wonder it they have classified them as Israeli ?
Since you ask: “According to data from the Danish Ministry of Immigration and Integration, Denmark received 321 Palestinian refugees in 1992. By 2019, 64% had been convicted of a crime, and 34% of their children also received a conviction.”
Yep, 64% and 34% of their kids.
https://voz.us/the-shocking-revelation-about-palestinians-and-crime-in-denmark-the-vast-majority-have-been-convicted-of-crimes/?lang=en
Correction: red bars represent Middle East, North Africa, Pakistan and Turkey (MENAPT).
Just hearing the Panama canal is opertaing at a much reduced
We all know about the Suez canal and the Red Sea, and now we have the port of Baltimore affected by the destruction of the bridge.
What I’m sure most people don’t know is that adds up to 30% of global shipping being disrupted.
Even then it probably doesn’t means much, but if the only alternative is to sail down to the tip of South America or Africa, and then back up again, it’s a huge distance and takes a lot more time.
It doesn’t just mean goods are going to be delayed, it means they will cost more, containers will cost more to hire, and insurance is going to cost more per trip.
And on the futures markets Cocoa has exploded in price. At the start of the year it was around £4000 a ton, now it’s close to $10 000 a huge uptick, so you can reckon on chocolate products rising in price 2 to 3 times.
Palestinian crisis actors exposed.
… not to mention the completely fake quotes by the BBC which just happen to be demanding the UN do something which is also todays agenda item. And they demand it in perfect English using all the correct keywords.
Gaza is perfect for the BBC because they don’t have to prove anything their journalists (who are also from Gaza and most likely support Hamas) say. Nobody is going to go in to check it.
