Start the Week /St George’s Day 23April 2024

I thought I’d mention St George’s Day in this Thread because the way things are going it might be the last time it is ‘celebrated ‘ – the BBC will traditionally claim that St George was not British or didn’t exist and put their VERIFY Propaganda department on the case . So many traditions are no approved – together with British history and culture – Saint George is someone the BBC would gladly bin 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

    The Rwanda Bill and what they aren’t telling you:

    Clause 16 of the deal says: “Resettlement of vulnerable Refugees: 16.1. The Participants will make arrangements for the United Kingdom to resettle a portion of Rwanda’s most vulnerable refugees in the United Kingdom, recognising both Participants’ commitment towards providing better international protection for refugees.”

    There are apparantly over 100000 ‘vulnerable’ refugees in Rwanda so what has happened is that Rishi Washee and his Marxists has agreed to take far more ‘refugees’ than he is going to send and we are going to pay at both ends for the privelege.

    It’s difficult to imagine a worse possible deal than this and of course the Marxists in the Tory party don’t want you to know and the BBC almost certainly supports it!

    The ‘Most’ vulnerable require 24/7 medical care which the NHS will have to provide and no doubt we will be having to import medical staff to do that !

      The BBC used to advise its presenters to how to minimse their tax libaility by pretending they has ‘outside’ income. this was highlighted (ten years ago) under a parliamentary questions into (admitted) tax abuses at the BBC which questioned the vast number of ‘well known’ (I.e. Terry Wogan) and many others – all BBC employees having so many ‘freelance’ (or multiple Directorships on ‘non trading’ Limited compananes) set up in Luxembourg – or the Isle of Man).
      This is fact. The BBC admited this in parliament it happend when they reached a ‘certain point’. In parliament The BBC was forced to ‘not advise staff on UK tax affairs’.

      Yet we still have Gary Linekar and Chris Packham stating that are entirely ‘freelance’ for any UK tax when they only have one UK employer (BBC) and are (largely) unemployable outside the BBC.

      The BBC also have ‘several’ BBC production companies to offload any hidden salaries, so they just continue as they did before.. So they can still advise its ‘clients’ on how to avoid tax outside the UK.

    A small detail from Musk vs Australian censorship —

    They want the priest stabbing removed from social media not just in Oz but worldwide. I don’t know the legal side but this seems an extraordinary overreach. Their e-safety commissioner says sharing it “further perpetuates the violence” and it’s vital social media be “an instrument of solidarity and social cohesion.”

    But in January she was complaining about suppression of pro-Palestinian content on Meta/FB/Instagram: “Any suppression of voices online, regardless of background, nationality, or cultural or religious affiliation, concerns me greatly. The absence of diverse voices from the ‘online square’ potentially contributes, in my view, to the normalisation of hate speech on platforms.”

    Try and spot the internal logic in that. Our media won’t because they’re too stupid, too corrupt, or both.

    And a photo, why not.

    I was wondering if BBC Scotland will still endorse the SNP. Well they have gone quiet – (lights out comrades). But we can be sure, under Labour, the same ‘measures’ will be adopted across the UK (despite the CAS report stating that it clearly is child abuse in another form)’.

    (excerpt)
    MORE MADNESS IN SCOTLAND, by Madeleine Kearns. “The Telegraph reports that Scottish elementary schools are being asked to appoint children as ‘LGBT champions’ and ask children as young as four if they are gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender. The organization behind this, LGBT Youth Scotland, received … taxpayer money last year. I trained as a teacher in Scotland in 2015 and was required to sit through a presentation by a member of this organization. As I wrote previously: ‘Our LGBT Youth Scotland trainer also told us that we should avoid “outing” transgender children to their parents and, if the child so wished, exclude parents from the process entirely. This approach has the full backing of the Scottish government.’”’

    I think I may have mentioned once or twice (ahem) that I’m a member of Kew Gardens. I visited yesterday with my niece and her adorable young son…and a good time was had by all, but…

    Everywhere you wander you’re confronted by signs about “Catastrophic Climate Change”…what we should be growing to combat the inevitable Armageddon we’re about to face and other reminders of the deep peril we’re all in.

    You see, having listened to Sir David, Al Gore and Grizzly Greta for yonks, I thought we should all by now be toast…or at least heading that way…but we’re not…

    Polar bears are thriving, The Great Barrier Reef is in fine fettle and the planet is considerably greener than it was twenty years ago.

    Everything they have warned us about has failed to materialise. The planet was supposed to become more arid. Every few weeks we’re told that “This is the hottest day/month/year since records began, but it’s all hogwash. People must be able to see through it by now.

    Anyway, yesterday was nice. It didn’t rain…much…but it was bloody nippy for April. I was done up like Captain Oates and it was still taters.

    I’ve little doubt that in a couple of months the BBC will be showing us a graph depicting this April as the hottest since records began. Yes, of course it was.

    Oh…and a Happy St George’s Day! Keep warm.

    Brrr….

    A cut and paste from ‘magistrates blog spot STARTS Far-right activist Tommy Robinson has been cleared failing to comply with a police dispersal direction.

    Robinson, real name Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon, 40, was accused of failing to comply with a direction issued under section 35 of the Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014.

    He has been cleared of the offence during a trial at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, 23rd April 2024.

    Having heard the prosecution’s case – which was, quite frankly, abysmal – District Judge Daniel Sternberg, presiding over the trial, concluded that there was no case to answer. In other words, taking the prosecution evidence at its highest, no properly-directed and reasonable tribunal of fact could find the offence proved to the required standard.

    The offence was said to have taken place on Sunday, 26th November 2023, when Robinson attended a protest march against anti-semitism in central London.

    He was accused of failing to comply with a section 35 direction when he refused to leave the area outside the Royal Courts of Justice on The Strand.

    By way of context, I should explain that a section 35 direction can only be issued where an officer of at least inspector rank has granted an authorisation under section 34 of the Act. Such an authorisation can only be granted for a maximum of 48 hours.

    It now transpires that the section 35 direction Robinson was arrested over was issued outside the time and locality to which the section 34 authorisation applied.

    Inspector Steve Parker-Phipps, who granted the section 34 authorisation, told the court that because his laptop was almost dead, he mistakenly timed and dated it as 10 am on 24th instead of 10 am on 26th November. That being the case, the authorisation had already lapsed by the time Robinson was arrested on the afternoon of 26th November.

    Alasdair Williamson KC, defending, put it to Inspector Parker-Phipps: “This document is not correct, is it? Can we have any confidence that a lawful order was in place?”

    The officer replied: “No.”

    With that it was game over. How could the prosecution possibly prove its case?

    It also turns out that even if the section 34 authorisation had been valid, the manner in which the officer made the section 35 direction was defective. This is because the officer making the direction failed to take into account Robinson’s claims of acting as a journalist at the protest – which, given his vast following, seems an entirely reasonable claim – and also gave insufficient time for Robinson to leave the area as directed.

    This is a complete and utter shambles. How many reviewing Met and CPS lawyers have overlooked the glaringly obvious flaws in this prosecution? Did they feel compelled to get it “over the line” due to the high profile nature of the defendant?

    A total waste of time, effort and public funds in prosecuting an offence that simply didn’t exist. I take personal offence that such a fundamentally flawed, poorly prepared case has been pushed in the direction of the court. It’s an insult. As if that’s not bad enough, Robinson will undoubtedly now receive tens of thousands in compensation as a result of his unlawful arrest and detention.

    This whole episode is absolutely cringeworthy.ENDS

    Inspector Parker – Phipps should go far ….

      And from near the end “As if that’s not bad enough, Robinson will undoubtedly now receive tens of thousands in compensation”

      Everything in the middle of that report was correct, but you get the feeling the author was annoyed that the police failed rather than be pleased that TR won.

      For the record, TR isn’t far right, he is a normal p1ssed off bloke like the rest of us. And as for compensation, well what’s wrong about that?

      Fed,

      A classic case, right now, of so much complex law laid that it is very difficult for the Police to reconcile themselves to working out what has to be done. It is all now too confusing. I recently remarked to the Home Office on a ‘Consultation’ that the Police do not really and honestly contribute to the Consultation exercise. They simply ‘nod in support’ knowing that they haven’t a chance in hell of enforcement. Then add the complexities and particularly dim coppers and ‘Hey Presto’ chaos.

      I posted here some while ago that if each Government Department busying themselves with unnecessary legislation were informed that if each piece of legislation laid that carries a criminal sanction enforced by the Police, the Police could employ x number of extra coppers engaged around the country to take the work on. But would that stop the likes of the Home Office from their zealotry in wanting to legislate for everything? Don’t know but when the Police numbers reach Stasi numbers per population i.e. with informants, virtually one-to-one, it can then be admitted we live in a Communist country.

      the STASI invented the idea of Zersetzung
      …literally… to decay (rather DECOMPOSITION)
      The state would target a dissident and make life impossible for them.
      Constant persecution by the police, refusal of utilities services, finance, employment, schooling. Families would be targeted and friends.
      Constant lawfare, constant harassment.
      The punishment us in the process and by doing this they crush and destroy the dissidents, bullying and intimidating others by example.
      Having seen what Robinson has had to face over the years from the police, media, CPS, home office and a score of other organizations,
      it is hard not to draw the conclusion that the British state has used Zersetzung on him.

    It was not part of their blood,
    It came to them very late
    With long arrears to make good,
    When the English began to hate.

    They were not easily moved,
    They were icy-willing to wait
    Till every count should be proved,
    Ere the English began to hate.

    Their voices were even and low,
    Their eyes were level and straight.
    There was neither sign nor show,
    When the English began to hate.

    It was not preached to the crowd,
    It was not taught by the State.
    No man spoke it aloud,
    When the English began to hate.

    It was not suddenly bred,
    It will not swiftly abate,
    Through the chill years ahead,
    When Time shall count from the date
    That the English began to hate.

    Five people including a child have died ” = five young men including a young man who we think was 14 but could have been 32. When we say they died they could have been thrown overboard for refusing to pay the full fare to the smugglers.

    We all expected that the St George’s Day march in London would be much more heavily policed than the weekly anti semitic marches are. However, I am very surprised that the police have been so openly , so brazenly, displaying their two tier policing regime . It is clear to me that they don’t care about how things look on TV or You Tube to ordinary Brits . They don’t care if events today prove for all to see that Stella Braverman was right when she accused the Met of double standards.
    This can only mean one thing, the police now believe that they no longer need the consent of the British people to police us. They can do whatever they like to us and we have no way of pushing back. We now live a police state run by Muslims, hyperglobalists and leftists. The law , which has been frequently used against TR can now be used against any of us for any reason which suits them.

    Quentin Letts on Dewbs and Co has just said he believes the Rwanda plan will work and that we’re looking at other African Countries, as are other European Countries, to roll out this plan to send asylum seekers to them as well.

    How long before enterprising Countries start sending multitudes of their young men up to the Channel where they either get accepted here or sent back and the receiving Countries will rake in £billions as well as sending (swapping) their citizens to us with all sorts of illnesses and health problems.
    Clearing out all their unwanted and problematic people and getting fabulous sums for doing it.

      That’ll make a hell of an impact on the ridiculous ‘comic relief’ too!

      Dim British people will give loads of money to the countries, (most of whom spend it on arms to knock out the neighbouring tribes anyway), and they can then pay for charter jets with the Bono-Geldofgeld, to chuck thousands more of their unwanted natives at us via France via the RNLI, to get our people to pay for them to be flown to Rwanda after a nice holiday in a hotel costing millions a day!

      That makes ‘sense’ – to our stupid government?

      They really can F-R-O at the next election!

    As others have mentioned one would never know there were St George’s Day Parades being held today because the BBC have kept completely silent on them. The BBC promote LGBTQ+ parades, they promote pro-Palestine marches, they promote BLM marches, they promote Stop Oil marches, they promote St Patricks Day parades etc etc but not St George’s Day Parade.

    So the BBC’s first story regarding St George’s Day is the following (England News Section & London News Subsection) headline: “Arrests at St George’s Day event in London

    Article: “.…. disorder breaks out at Whitehall event. Six arrested … suspicion of animal cruelty … assault … being drunk and disorderly … large police presence … disorder … the group violently forcing their way through … officers intervened to restore the cordon … a number of people had been seen in the area wearing masks … Section 60AA order in force “giving officers the power to require the removal of face coverings” … Attendees included far-right activist Tommy Robinson (real name Stephen Yaxley Lennon) .

    Does anybody know if the Tommy Robinson trial verdict
    was mentioned on BBC national news?
    Of course on the Londonistan programme you wouldn’t
    see it being featured in a million years. Day after day after
    day after day after day after day . They report on the failings
    of the Met. BUT when Tommy Robinson is “sorted out”
    and set up. It took a courageous judge to bring them down
    to earth with their absurd charges against Robinson.. The
    anarchist Marxist editors on the London Programme
    will willing do the bidding of what they are told by
    BIG BROTHER from the diversity department, And not report
    on the case.

      St George’s day marchers get kettled by the police, charged by horses supported by the TSG riot squad. Marchers were generally stationary at the time.

      Just Stop Oil get offered refreshments from the police while they stop people from carrying out their daily life.

      Palestinian marchers are freely allowed to shout the death cull From the River to the Sea.

      BLM allowed to desecrate statues and memorials for the dead while the police just look on. Nothing to see here.

      Now someone tell me that we don’t have two tier policing.

      Why didn’t the St George marchers march outside the BBC as the BBC, judging by their website, had never heard of St George’s day?

      It’s going to explode soon if the pathetic inactive government aren’t careful. Tories really have been weak and spineless. The true English, silent majority have had enough.

        The true patriots were out on the streets being attacked by the TSG in summer 2020 onwards. The vast majority of the people sat on their ar*** and did nothing to stop the tyranny. In fact on many occasions I had to face abuse from those who had gone along with the madness. Serious abuse from mentally unstable idiots. It isn’t pleasant. Had people simply refused to shut down their shops, ‘socially distance etc. none of what is happening now would be possible. The majority of those out celebrating St. George’s day were a no-show in 2020 and thereafter. True patriotism is defined by real action, not show.

          If shops were not closed down promptly before daily prayers in the Mid East (KSA), it was likely the religious police would enter the property and smash things up. Just saying.

    The BBC’s new worldwide ad campaign has just dropped. ( and I’m in the same sentence as these legends!!)
    “Featured throughout the campaign are some of the BBC’s renowned journalists, including Jeremy Bowen, Orla Guerin, Maryam Moshiri, Clive Myrie, and Amol Rajan.” 👏🏽
