    Deeply disappointed – thought I’d get the latest gaffe on the world at one – instead 15 minutes of climate change crap propaganda . The BBC wants a constant climate – it must always be the same – day after day –

    And of course at the bottom of it all is more control and more taxes …. And the only country on the planet is Blighty –

    Keep burning that coal china …

    BTW – they even rolled out that idiot selwyn – gummer – now lord debens of green crap to tell all we are going to be poor and controlled – very Thatcherite was selwyn – I guess WEF bought him …off switch

    Just to add to the green crap thing – it sort of reminds me of medieval thing where everything was a sign from god – bit of Black Death – god – crops fail – god –

    Now that God has been ‘cancelled ’ he has been replaced by human caused climate change – every bit of weather is a ‘sign ‘ that the planet is angry with us ….

      Fed, the Bible has plenty to say on this subject. It is an outworking of Romans chapter 1 where inanimate, man made objects are worshipped instead of the God of Glory – think wind turbines, solar panels, etc. I wish I had kept the newspaper cutting but back in 1997 or 1998 or 1999 some real Cult Greenies – in reality pagans – were actually going to (land based) wind farms to worship.

      Meanwhile, Colossians 1 verse 17 is no longer believed by a retired Pastor friend of mine! Incredible.

        Yes I believe green crap and football has replaced religion for a lot of non Muslims – I remember Tony benn once commenting that the DIY shop ( not store ) has replaced the church as the place to go on Sundays .

        The devil has done a hell of a job pushing the false ‘religion/lifestyle of Islam as well as distracting from Christianity with green crap and various perversions …. But The Lord warned of false prophets and ‘difficulties ‘

        BTW – I read the book but I don’t do references … it’s not a criticism

    The BBC has smashed its own record for the number of times it uses the phrase ‘far right’ in an article. The new record – 22 – required the assistance of obscure European ‘academics’ and a whole phalanx of BBC interns, many of them equipped with personal pronouns. A BBC spokesperson said that encouraged by their success, they will now aim to beat Hamza Useless’ infamous ‘White, White, White’ record during the General Election campaign.

    Funny that the BBC – such a believer in democracy – wouid criminalise any one dissenting from the approved view – actually not funny and not a surprise in the current circumstances .
    I know the incoming ‘culture secretary ‘ wants to licence the internet so sites like this one will be threatened … we will need an ‘internet user licence ‘ …

    Re: Farage’s comments with Trevor Phillips today where he notes a “growing number of young people in this country who do not subscribe to British values – in fact, loathe much of what we stand for”.

    Someone called Ayesha Yousef Hazarika isn’t happy: “Nigel Farage has revealed his ‘true colours as a nasty, race-baiting character’, says Labour’s Baroness Hazarika, following his interview with Trevor Phillips. ‘I am a proud Indian, Scottish, British, Muslim. I just swore my allegiance to King and country on the Quran.'”

    That’s quite the multicultural broth she’s cooked up there. All completely normal now for the UK in 2024 and without any contradictions or potential conflicts of interest. Still, in the intersectionality stakes, Ayesha has a long way to go to match this:

      I remember during John majors’ time an order being given to stop the practice of multi language form – in order to encourage foreigners to use and learn English ( I exempt welch here ) .. that order – of course – was ignored by civil servants and council staff – many of whom don’t have the engleesh as their first language ….

      Philips’ closing line was
      “Phillips: I’m going to stop you there and I’m going to say two things. First of all, you’re right. I come from that stock.
      But let us remember that my stock, my ancestors for the best part of 7 or 800 years were Muslims until they were forcibly converted to Christians by slave owners. ”
      To portray tranatlantic slaves as generally Muslim sems wrong
      Even his claim that his own ancestors were Muslim 800 years ago seems could be flawed
      as tribes often converted much later than is made out .

          North african Muslims did bring Islam to some parts of the Sub sahara
          The establisment date of the Timbuktu Mosque is given as 1327 (been rebuilt since then)

          How come Mandinka converted to Islam ?
          wasn’t it holy wars ?

          “The Fulani people were early converts to Islam and became known for their jihads, or holy wars, which they pursued zealously.”
          “The urban Fulani are the most ardently Muslim. Pastoral Fulani are frequently lax and sometimes even nonpracticing.”

          Does Trevor Phillips ask what happens to urban Fulani and urban Mandinka try to convert to Christianity ?

        Trevor Phillips evidence to Parliament Tuesday 21 May 2019
        (His parents emigrated from British Guiana in 1950 they sent him there while they moved to New York)

        : I was born in London, but I was raised in Guyana,
        My neighbours and schoolmates were practising Muslims. I celebrated Eid and the Prophet’s birthday, as public holidays with the same stature as Christmas and Easter.

        One of my sisters is a Muslim convert, so the position of Muslims has always been close to my heart.
        in 1997, I commissioned a report that introduced the term Islamophobia to the UK.

        The Mandinka and Fulani slaves that were brought to British Guyana in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries would have been Muslims.
        Almost certainly the only reason that my own family is not Muslim today is because we were slaves.
        I imagine we only became Christian because the Gladstones whipped the Islamic faith out of us”

        TP had to apologise once
        He was giving a speech
        ashortly after they all tosted the Queen, he decided to make a joke about the Queen Mother’s colostomy bag

      Archbishop of Canterbury: “Hatred of Muslims is blasphemy”
      18/03/2019

      . . . . .

      Archbishop of Canterbury says Islamic rules are incompatible with Britain’s laws which have Christian values
      Justin Welby said Sharia law should never become part of the UK legal system
      His predecessor Lord Williams had said Sharia law could be incorporated
      Welby said British law had ‘values and assumptions’ rooted in Christian traditions

    .@DominicFrisby’s new video
    “How The News Lies – a true story”
    DF says ‘I told the Channel4 guy, I don’t get Brexit heckles as I avoid doing Brexit jokes
    as I don’t want to divide the room
    I spent 5 minutes telling him that
    but he kept pushing me saying what-if , to get the line he wanted
    Then made a clip of that, leaving off my MAIN point
    The result was a load of hatey sneery replies from Remainers’

    Frisby then references another case of media distortion
    In 1990 in Sardinia he a bilingual saw the Italian police screw up
    by directing lines of England fans & Dutch fans right into each other
    so police panicked & let off loads of tear gas
    Media pics “English hooligans cause trouble”
    .. the fans hadn’t done anything, it was the police

    I’m not sure if green card not turning up to the Southampton v Leeds playoff game counts as a ‘gaffe’ or not – the Southampton manager is a loon called Russell Martin who is a card carrying member of the Green Party and won’t talk to rushi a saints supporter ( sort of ) even when he was the PM –

    I won’t give you the result …

    Mrs Voter was watching something on the Blackest Broadcasting Corporation in the world, and ended up watching Ride London, about biking round London, pro’s, semi pro’s and ordinary people on bikes. Claire Balding was I/C of the mike Chris Broadman was commenting and there was a blonde bimbo who could have been Claire’s bike, but I’m not sure.

    Apparently Mr Boardman is doing a bike ride leading up to the Olympics, it’s called Pedal to Paris and the intention is to bring climate change to everyone’s attention.

    They then went to a bit about the race itself, some black reporter just happened to find an asian feller to talk to.

    I thought he was going to knick her phone and leggit!

        Starmer works as a thug for the Trilateral Commission.
        https://www.trilateral.org/people/sir-keir-starmer/
        His job is to turn the UK into the next China and at this rate, it isn’t going to take that long. The Trilateral Commission was set up by David Rockefeller in 1973 as one of the fronts for the globalists to engineer the NWO.
        Jeffrey Epstein was a also member so you know what kind of person you have to be admitted to the club. Are you surprised Starmer let Charlie’s best mate Jimmy Savile skate?
        It was David Rockefeller who famously wrote
        “We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine, and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years……It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supernational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.”

    Nigel Farage called out for ‘blanket accusation’ as he says ‘growing number’ of Muslims ‘loathe’ British values
    The honorary president of Reform UK also said the Conservatives and Labour were to blame for an increase in immigration, not Brexit – after Sky’s Trevor Phillips challenged him for his “offensive” remarks about Muslims.

    . . . .. .

    So much contradiction between data … who to believe?

    ….As one survey revealed (no reference given), 83% of Muslims said they were proud to be British, compared to 79% of Britons overall. {by Baroness Warsi – jan2013 }
    https://www.gov.uk/government/speeches/tell-mama-measuring-anti-muslim-attacks-speech

    Proud to be British – but what is British? Is being British having freedom to draw cartoons …

    “ Channel 4 poll from last year (2015), found that only 1% of UK Muslims think that publications should have the right to publish the cartoons of Mohammed.” {by Douglas Murray}
