    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islam_in_the_United_Kingdom

    Islam is the second-largest religion in the United Kingdom, with results from the 2021 Census recording just under four million Muslims, or 6.0% of the total population in the United Kingdom.[7][8] London has the largest population and greatest proportion (15%) of Muslims in the country.[9][10][11] The vast majority of Muslims in the United Kingdom adhere to Sunni Islam,[12] while smaller numbers are associated with Shia Islam.

      Here are Gaza “journalist” Hind Khoudary’s deleted tweets justifying her handing over Palestinian peace activists to Hamas: x.com/HillelNeuer/st…
      Twisted: the @nytimes itself had exposed Khoudary’s collaboration with Hamas—yet now platforms her as a legitimate journalist.

      Meanwhile Toenails is fighting off Brand, Rigby and the FT in Slick’s colon.

        Seems the IDF missile attack on Islamic terrorists hiding in a refugee camp caused a fuel dump to explode hence killing more than expected innocents .

        I thought they didn’t have any fuel … ? And they’ve been starving for 6 months plus – according to Islamic Hamas UN types …

        Keep going IDF – if they won’t let you do Rafah from the ground – do it from the air …

    Today
    New girl interviewed 3 18 year olds – the first one was asked about national service – he immediately threw in the ‘mental health ‘crap – these lefties telling every one they’ve got a mental health problem is really hollowing out these poor kids .

    Listening to them it gave a case for not giving 16 year olds the vote – if these characters want politics delivered by colouring books then what of 16 year olds ? Will they want free porn in the voting booth ?

    If green card was going to announce the national service thing would it not have been better to do it on 6th June …?

        “British Laws”? Becoming progressively irrelevant. ‘International Laws’? Taking over slowly but surely. Our ‘trusted’ politicians have all been working surreptitiously toward creating a body of International laws for their masters and ensuring that their peoples comply with same. That’s why the police increasingly don’t enforce “British Laws”. No need as they will be replaced in due course.

        The only way the UK can improve its lot, is having a government of the real people. A government (and people) prepared to become a pariah in the World (like N Korea) and withdraw from all the ‘International Treaties’ they have clandestinely signed up to over the years. Since Bliar would be a good start.

        Aint gonna happen.

          . . . . .

          To Hell With the Archbishop of Canterbury {slate.com feb2008}

          In the midst of this dismal verbiage and euphemism, the plain statement—”There’s one law for everybody and that’s all there is to be said”—still stands out like a diamond in a dunghill.

          It stands out precisely because it is said simply, and because its essential grandeur is intelligible to everybody. Its principles ought to be just as intelligible and accessible to those who don’t yet speak English, in just the same way as the great Lord Mansfield once ruled that, wherever someone might have been born, and whatever he had been through, he could not be subject to slavery once he had set foot on English soil.

No. and the Toady interviewer did not, needless to say, ask for any clarification. The BBC, comfortable with the malleability of the ‘Slippy-slidey’ LibDems who suit their purposes.

        ….

        Today the BBC journalists Michael Keohan and Colin Campbell released a shocking report on the channel crossings. It showed people smugglers selling their wares brazenly in the migrant camps and many children living in unsafe and dangerous conditions, as well as—this is breathtaking—a free French public bus service that migrants can use to travel directly from the camps to the Dunkirk departure beaches. Will my right hon. Friend allow a statement on the issue of tackling the small boat crossings and the Government’s response in their work with France?

    Anti Farage bias as reported in the DT

    STARTS The BBC has apologised to Nigel Farage over an impartiality breach after accusing him of using “customary inflammatory language”.

    Geeta Guru-Murthy made the remark as the channel cut away from the honorary Reform UK president’s press conference about migration in Dover.

    In his speech, Mr Farage had defended his use of the term “invasion” to describe Channel crossings, saying a “trickle” of illegal migrants had become a “flood” and that a “large influx of young males” had “disastrous” effects in the Swedish city of Malmo.

    The former Ukip leader was talking about Donald Tusk, the Polish prime minister, referring to “aggressive young males that are coming into Poland” when the news channel cut away.

    Ms Guru-Murthy then said: “Nigel Farage with his customary inflammatory language there at a Reform UK press conference.

    “He declined to stand for a seat. But we will have more on what Farage is saying, if you want to follow it more, just follow the QR code.”

    Two hours later, Ms Guru-Murthy told viewers: “Now, an apology. Earlier today we heard live from Nigel Farage, speaking at that election event we just saw.

    “When we came away from his live speech, I used language to describe it which didn’t meet the BBC’s editorial standards on impartiality. I’d like to apologise to Mr Farage and viewers for this.”

    Ms Guru-Murthy is the older sister of Krishnan Guru-Murthy, the Channel 4 News presenter.

    In 2022, Mr Guru-Murthy was briefly taken off air after calling Tory MP Steve Baker a “c—” in an audio clip which was circulated after the exchange. She subsequently apologised for the comment.

    After calling for an apology from Ms Guru-Murthy in the wake of the remarks, Mr Farage told The Telegraph: “Victory.”

    Advocate for BBC licence fee abolition
    In March, the BBC apologised to Reform after calling it “far-Right” in a news report.

    The corporation made the claim in an item about the Liberal Democrats’ spring conference, in which it referred to Reform surging ahead of Sir Ed Davey’s party in the opinion polls.

    The corporation said at the time: “This sentence was subsequently removed from the article as it fell short of our usual editorial standards.

    “While the original wording was based on news agency copy, we take full responsibility and apologise for the error.”

    Mr Farage has long advocated for the abolition of the BBC licence fee and his battles with the corporation predate the Brexit referendum.

    In 2015, he wrote to bosses at the national broadcaster accusing them of “dishonesty” for using the word “Europe” instead of “European Union” in their reporting of the EU referendum.

    Mr Farage announced last week he would not stand as a candidate for Reform at the July 4 election, arguing he would be more effective if able to travel across the country campaigning at the same time as party leader Richard Tice.

    The BBC was contacted for comment.ENDS

    Just glanced at GBnews
    A Tory MP is live from the marketplace of a village which will be in his new constituency (boundary changes)
    As it happens I was in a remote part of that area on Saturday and bumped into him.
    It was clear he was out and about doing photo opportunities.
    I told him not to bother with me cos I don’t live in that area, but I mentioned I knew of his Men’s Right’s work
    At which point he went into a speech saying leaving men behind is greatly affecting women negatively cos they are impacted by the jailing and suicides of men
    .. good point
    He made a point of using the key phrase “Right now working class white males are the most left behind”
    On that cue I mentioned that an example of that Ava Evans sneering at men’s suicide causing Laurence Fox to sneer back, causing the cancellation of him, but no consequences from her
    .. The MP sidestepped that question
    choosing to mention his Men’s rights bill was supposed to be in parliament in 10 days thus had been cancelled by the election.
    I didn’t push him ..on the clear point the Tories have had years to do that stuff instead of leaving it to the last moment.

    .. As he continued he did seem like a Reform candidate ..seemed sincere.

    Then today on TV his trust was anti-Socialism .. that Starmer and Labour want to put the brakes on capitalism and thus harm the UK
    Again he sounded reasonable

    Farage received an apology from the BiasedBBC
    He quoted the Polish PM
    and Geeta Guru Murthy played the clip
    and added “Nigel Farage with his customary inflammatory language”

    The GBnews segment https://youtu.be/lAqyzyG_dvE

    BBC’s Geeta Guru-Murthy apologise for on air comments

    “Now an apology.
    Earlier today we heard live from Nigel Farage, speaking at that election event we just saw.
    When we came away from his live speech, I used language to describe it which didn’t meet the BBC’s editorial standards on impartiality.
    I’d like to apologise to Mr Farage and viewers for this.

    @RobinMorritt’s conspiracy theory
    They know perfectly well what they are doing.
    Deep dive:
    BBC presenter Geeta Guru-Murthy is the elder sister of Channel 4 presenter Krishnan Guru-Murthy.
    Ravi Guru-Murthy is another brother, CEO of Nesta.
    Jimmy Wales of Wikipedia is a Trustee of Nesta.
    Nesta acquired the Behavioural Insights Team (Nudge Unit) set up by the government to psychologically manipulate public opinion during the Covid scare.
    These people use their position to control elections by manipulating public opinion using methods researched in our most prestigious universities.

    Fact check: he’s OK but it was established way before Covid
    BIT was established by the UK government in 2010. In 2014 it became an independent social purpose company, part owned by the Cabinet Office and innovation charity Nesta, and since 2021 has been entirely owned by Nesta

    The apology/correction was necessary
    and it’s good it was made.
    But, as is nearly always the case in such incidents, the original infraction speaks volumes about where they’re really coming from.

    2019 “Labour ‘NOT party for the people’ Britons FURIOUS at Corbyn’s pension tax raid
    BRITONS have taken aim at Jeremy Corbyn after Andrew Neil skewered him in a live TV interview that saw the BBC’s veteran broadcaster tear apart the Labour leader’s plot to financially cripple pensioners from low incomes.
    By CARLY READ
    11:42, Fri, Nov 29, 2019 | UPDATED: 12:40, Fri, Nov 29, 2019″

    “Voters swarmed social media to mock the Labour leader after Mr Neil found their tax proposals could cripple those on a state pension who are earning £14,000 a year. One asked on Facebook whether Diane Abbott had something to do with the mess … “

    The FT and Economist used to be serious, credible publications.

    What Gary Lineker’s success says about Britain https://www.economist.com/britain/2024/05/25/footballer-broadcaster-podcast-mogul-the-career-of-gary-lineker?

    What it says is that having the backing of the most corrupt vast broadcaster means you can do what you want, get paid a fortune for it, to get exposure globally no matter how thick and twisted you are.

    Ah, that applies to the entire establishment now, so ok.

      here’s the start
      “Mr. Deepstate” as I’d like to call him – is the former head of the Dutch Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD)
      as well as the former national coordinator of the counter-terrorism unit (NCTV) which is known to focus on combatting “anti-government extremism”.

      As if that isn’t bad enough, he was also:
      – behind the Dutch covid regime
      – involved in the Trump-Russia hoax
      – behind the cover-up of flight MH17 reports
      – spying on Dutch citizens here on @X with fake accounts operated by the government
