Looks like the BBC will be in full mourning on Monday as across Europe the Far Left is being beaten by partys more interested in caring for their people than those imported from the Third World . And a comment too – about corrupt Green policies imposing unnecessary burdens on us all . Enjoy .

Far Right isn’t just two normal political words. It means something far more insidious. Racism, bigotry, division, hatred. I know what Far Right language sounds and feels like.
Far Left = fluffy and do no wrong
well, that actually makes sense?

Lord Frost: “BBC Verify is becoming a tool for elite control of discourse”
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/06/08/bbc-verify-becoming-a-tool-for-elite-control-of-discourse/
A ‘Lie’ is a lie but the BBC verifies the ‘Truth’ as malinformation, disinformation or misinformation.
Nigel Farage tells the ‘Truth’ but the BBC verifies the ‘Truth’ as malinformation, disinformation or misinformation.
Mark Steyn tells the ‘Truth’ but OFCOM verifies the ‘Truth’ as malinformation, disinformation or misinformation.
So tomorrow at 10.30am on Tuesday June 11th in Court Two, before Mrs Justice Farbey DBE, Mark Steyn visits the Royal Courts of Justice in London, to fight against Ofcom. Supported by a crowd including statistician Professor Norman Fenton and many others.
The official lie enforced by Ofcom is that the mRNA jab is 100 per cent “safe and effective” which is now scientifically and statistically indefensible, with hundreds of scientific papers providing Mark Steyn and many scientists and statisticians with an enormous amount of evidence to present before the judge.
Richard
Now presumably BBCOFCOM have the unlimited resources of the almighty State plus the lies of big pharma to destroy Mark Steyn –
Or do they try to put it off to do ‘a deal’ or force mr Steyn to incur more legal expenses …
Or do they cave in rather than have embarrassing evidence publicly aired ( although they’d try to get an injunction preventing proceedings being reported ?)
In any event I hope mr Steyn is recovering okay – but I’m sure BBCOFCOM wouid want him to be added to the ‘unexplained death ‘ statistics…
I wonder if mr Mosley is also now added to those statistics … he was I understand bigly enthusiastic about thr ‘vaccine / poison ‘….
They may as well spray “Don’t do business with Jews”, but as far as the BBC is concerned, they are peaceful protesters.
I think we can all see that the far left are the new antisemites.
I was listening to the news on Five Dead on Saturday night. The newsreader introduced a piece about the rise of the “far right” in Europe. But the academic they interviewed spoke of the “radical right”, not the same thing at all.
On Sunday Five Dead described Giorgia Meloni as “far right”, when she is a great mate of Ursula von der Leyen these days.
It seems the BBC has got a bee in its bonnet about the “far right”. No doubt Verify will be looking into this misinformation. Come on Marianna, you know you want to.
zero seats
Evening Tomo,
I’m not normally a grammar policeman, but when “Dan” refers to the “press core”, does he mean “press corps.”?
He probably also says “I would of thought” instead of “I would have thought”. “I would of thought” is utterly meaningless.
“Zero seats”, of course, means “wait and see”.
Rant over; calm down Mick.
yup – agree… but to try is better than not bothering 🙂
Thanks – let’s go for zero seats …
Net Zero seats as well!

Black footballers aren’t allowed to be associated with failure.
Another ridiculous race-baiting story which the BBC just can’t wait to get onto it’s Sports home page.
A few days ago England lost to Iceland, and some media outlets used a photo of the black England player Bukayo Saka in their match report. Predictably the woke, white-hating likes of Ian Wright and co have jumped on the bandwagon to criticize the photo, claiming that it associates black players with failure.
This is of course double-standards from the people complaining. If only white players are featured anywhere then they complain about a lack of diversity, and when one black player has his photo taken in a negative light it suddenly becomes racist. Effectively, what the likes of Ian Wright are saying is that black players shouldn’t be associated with defeat because this somehow sends the wrong message, Or some bollocks.
The article also harks back to the final of Euro 2020 which England lost to Italy, after 3 black players all missed in the penalty shootout. Now I don’t have a problem with players missing penalties, it can happen to anyone, but after that 2020 final there was a tiny percentage of comments on social media which were negative or racist towards the 3 players, and it was found that some of the comments actually originated from overseas. In other words the percentage of racist comments from UK-based users was tiny, but still gets blown way out of proportion, and of course gets a mention in this particular report.
Just another race-baiting article built on the most flimsy and biased arguments.

Mrs Justice Tipples has a decision to make . She presided over the prosecution of 2 12 year olds who slaughtered a 17 year old stranger in a park using a machete they regularly carried .
The decision is whether they should be named . Now I have the strongest of feelings about this – people need to know who are killers – and any kid should be accountable for what they did .
In this case – the death penalty might be the best way – take a life – have yours taken …. 12 years old or not ( brutal arnt I?)
Kids learn from kids so to stop kids thinking chopping people up and taking their innocent lives away is not a nice thing to do must involve ultimate sanctions to persuade them otherwise including the death penalty, and just fuck off you protectors of these vicious twats.

O-type blood donors needed after London cyber-attack
From the guardian – Dot Byrne – who used to a be a senior bbc manager – writes about the BBC being safe with the red party ( it was safe with the blue one too)
STARTS 5 July, if polling predictions are correct, the Tories will be out of power. Among the repercussions will be that the BBC and Channel 4 – two of our great creative organisations – will have to get creative and start solving some of their own problems. Bailing out broadcasters won’t be a Labour priority.
The BBC’s licence fee, more than 100 years old, might be a good place to start. It’s clearly unjust in some regards: you pay it even if you want to watch every channel but those operated by the BBC, and a single mother in Barnsley pays the same as the king. All those clever people in the BBC (and an awful lot of people work there – more than 21,000 at last count) need to come up with an innovative alternative.
I used to be head of news and current affairs at Channel 4, during a time when things were different. In 1998, when I started out as a commissioning editor, there were only five terrestrial TV channels, we had no streaming services to compete with, and there was not the plethora of websites and podcasts offering a brilliant range of radical views that we have now. But today we have an opportunity to redefine public service broadcasting, with the current market realities in mind. The BBC and Channel 4 were founded in two very different ages: the BBC’s original mission was to inform, educate and entertain – but now, when global streaming platforms with huge budgets dominate the TV space, we can get our entertainment in lots of different places. Similarly, Channel 4 was set up by the government in 1982 with a unique remit to stimulate the independent production sector, drive innovation, give voice to diverse communities and encourage debate. But are there many truly unique programmes being created under that remit 40-odd years on?
In today’s market, the BBC should stick to what it does best: news and current affairs, children’s programming, documentaries about the UK, religious and ethical programmes, local radio and other key genres that commercial broadcasters and streamers have no interest in. Channel 4’s model must also evolve. Most people don’t realise it makes none of its own programmes – proposed changes allowing it to start doing so, and giving it the right to keep some of the intellectual property in its programmes and to borrow money, are much welcomed.
We should also celebrate some of the other changes already being made. Among the doom-laden articles about Channel 4’s so-called demise, the fact that it will move most of its staff out of London was reported as if it was a negative. But this is terrific news. A few years ago, Channel 4 announced that Leeds would be its national headquarters – so many may be surprised they didn’t move those staff earlier. And this country desperately needs a major broadcaster that is genuinely based in the north. Granada Television was, in its day, the finest television company this country has had. It made Coronation Street and World in Action, and its success was very much tied to its being based in the north. Having worked there for more than a decade from 1982, I can say it was truly a time when some of the finest television was made by a northern company: think Jewel in the Crown, Brideshead Revisited and Disappearing World. This relocation is great news for the levelling up agenda, supported in theory by all politicians, but of which we see little in practice.
And who’s to say good public TV never means cuts? Channel 4’s cuts of 18% in staff appear shocking, but look more closely. They bring the figures for those employed back to 2021 levels. At the height of Channel 4’s creative success in the 1980s – admittedly, very different times – its headcount was several hundred lower than today. Meanwhile, the BBC does need to be more frugal. Four people with three cameras recently turned up to interview me for a few minutes for a BBC education programme. They told me it was necessary, but in a time when people make award-winning programmes on mobile phones, this public broadcaster must change with the times. TV licence fee revenues in 2023 were £3.7bn. That’s an awful lot of money that could be better spent on hospitals.
The aim should always be to save the programmes, not the institutions that make them. The BBC is a huge machine that, in in my view, is devoted to saving itself. This machine would have you believe that if you attack its financial model of balancing the popular and predictable with the special, you want to get rid of BBC News. No – we just need to be honest that a lot of what it does could, and indeed should, be done elsewhere.
I have supported the BBC and Channel 4 against the attacks of the Tory right for more than a decade. But now that those attackers are fading from political power, we supporters need to ask searching questions.
We need a moment of honesty. We need to know just which programmes are very special, and also which ones aren’t – and we might decide there is another way of making those that aren’t up to scratch.
Whatever the changes, public broadcasting is a public service. As Keir Starmer said of the NHS, neither the BBC nor Channel 4 is “a shrine to be worshipped at”. So let’s finally take the chance to submit our broadcasters to the forensic, searching questions we would of any other vital national service.

Seeing how the youth in Europe are voting I think the Tool might be getting ready for another U turn regarding giving the vote to children.
On that very topic, earlier today I joined a safeguarding/ child abuse training session. Don’t ask.
One of the key threads was the relative immaturity, vulnerability, and impressionability of people 16 years and under and hence the need for vigilance and much else. Especially true in schools.
There was a momentary penny dropping silence in the room. I swear it had dawned on some attendees that Labour want to give these very same impressionable, immature, vulnerable people the vote!!!!!!!!
They cannot of course drive a car or drink in a pub. But apparently they should be able to vote.
The marriage age was recently raised to 18 to protect under 18s cos they are vulnerable to being forced into things !
Today, Australia’s two most aggressive Covid-era premiers, Daniel Andrews (Victoria) and Mark McGowan (Western Australia), were awarded the nation’s top honour, the Companion of the Order of Australia (AC).
In the 2024 King’s Birthday Honours roll, only six Australians received the award, which signifies “eminent achievement and merit of the highest degree in service to Australia or to humanity at large”.
Andrews received the award for “eminent service to the people and parliament of Victoria, to public health, to policy and regulatory reform, and to infrastructure development”.
McGowan received the same award for “eminent service to the people and Parliament of Western Australia, to public health and education, and to international trade relations”.

Watching bargain hunt which is mildly watchable as it tours old towns in the South of England with all their heritage of old England aura and architecture. However the adverts cut in and smash the magic as it seems we are now suddenly transported to Uganda….

Mr P often watches repeats of older programs like Last of The Summer Wine. The adverts come on with things like rappers shaking their bling & fat bums in the screen. What audience are they trying to appeal to?
Of late I’ve binged The West Wing (obsessed with Josh Lynham), and now The Good Wife. Every ad during the breaks features blacks only, or black husbands or black voice overs, and definitely mixed race kids. My friend above quoted Uganda, yep, right there.

Then Curtiss died in 1930, taking with him any hope of completing it. Of 100 Islamic-style buildings that were projected, only 70 were built. These days only 50 or so remain, in varying degrees of conservation or decay, said Vazquez.
Twenty buildings here feature on the national registry of historic buildings, including town hall, which boasts towering minarets, six domes and ample gardens. It was the centerpiece of Curtiss’s grand plan.
Now it is being restored. – Bars and churches – Indeed, the oasis that Curtiss foresaw dried up, and Opa-locka slid into decline. The nadir came toward the end of the 20th century as crime spread and the city earned a reputation for violence. The image has stuck, even today. Forty percent of its 16,000 residents — 65 percent of them black and 30 percent Latino — live under the poverty line. “Here, all there is are bars and churches.

.. I heard an interview tonight with a defeated lefty Belgiun who said people had stopped feeling uncomfortable voting for nationalist parties because they were more fed up with third world imports destroying their towns cities countries …
That was the obvious Tomney should have put to him.
If going lefty centre works, why has it turned out to be a disaster for the lefty-centre parties TODAY in the EU elections ?
Will Elwood talk to his chums in 77th about Reform?
Ellwood is one of the worst creatures out there. He was heavily involved in Russiagate, working with the FBI and the CIA on UK soil to keep Operation Hurricane going. What are the chances this pos turns out to be a hero?

If you believe this is real you need your head examined. It’s a classic false flag. The fact he is demonising Reform should also make you think twice.
Don’t forget Farage was all for Tony Blair being put in charge of operation ‘inject the entire country with an experimental stab’. I would trust Farage as far as I can throw him. You’re not going to vote yourself out of this mess.
The only thing that redeems him is that when PC Keith Palmer was attacked Tobias attempted to save him not knowing if another attacker was around unlike like the weasley Sir Craig Mackey who locked his car doors and made no attempt to help.

Sir Lenny Henry says his ITV series is one of ‘many black dramas’ getting axed
https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/celebrity-news/sir-lenny-henry-says-itv-32986279
Watched the IMDB trailer for it. The first words were from 2 black women on a boat:
First woman: ‘3 weeks now and we’ll be in England’
Second woman: ‘What if England don’t like me’
So more ‘poor black victims of white supremecy racists’ then from Lenny.
The IMDB ratings are almost ALL 10/10. And only 16 reviews even though it was out last year.
Give up and retire Lenny. You have no talent. You never did. You made a career out of being black and now you are calling everyone who gave you what you have racists.
But of course it’s only being cancelled because it’s about black people right ?.
Look in the mirror if you want to see one more black racist with a chip on his shoulder.
No doubt he’ll get an interview with the BBC to discuss it.
This was mentioned on Twitter as well.
The blindingly obvious thing to take from this is the “many black dramas” quote. If they only make up around 1 in 12 of the UK population then “many black dramas” sort of implies there are way more black dramas in the first place than there should be statistically. And if many *are* being axed then it will still leave quite a few existing. Plus of course there’s no mention of how many predominantly white dramas are also being axed.
The other elephant in the room is the fact that surely some/all are being axed simply because they’re rubbish? Certainly if Lenny Henry’s acting and comedy levels are used as a yardstick then its a surprise if there are any black dramas left at all.
Couldn’t agree more, Henry is two-faced in my opinion.
How Gaza hostage raid ended with Israel striking crowded streets
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cv22xvp90nlo
Just like the BBC to paint the IDF as the villains for rescuing hostages from the terrorists in Gaza. No criticism anywhere about Hamas having a base in the midst of civilians in a UN refugee camp. Nor any question about how they can do that without the UN’s knowledge.
They make out it was just a slaughter by the IDF. Then, later in the article, we get phrases like :
‘By now the IDF says their forces were coming under heavy fire from Palestinian fighters.’
And it’s in the response to this that the civilians got killed. WHose fault is that BBC ?. Should the IDF have not returned fire and let themselves get shot in order to save some Palestinians who almost certainly hate them and support what those terrorists do ?.
Then it degenerates into the usual dirty empathy trickery to pull you onto the side of the Palestinian.
Well done IDF. A dirty job, but somebody has to do it.
This report is from ‘Jon Donnison’ : another BBC reporter criticised for directly blaming Israel for that hospital attack which turned out to be Hamas themselves who did it. Just before the story disappeared.
The BBC rejected that complaint because ‘though he suggested a strong probability of Israeli involvement, he was not offering a definitive judgement’. Just as they rejected all the others.
https://pressgazette.co.uk/the-wire/newspaper-corrections-media-mistakes-errors-legal/complaints-about-bbc-coverage-of-israel-hamas-war-are-not-upheld/
What a complete farce it is that the BBC can judge complaints of bias themselves. And how guilty reporters are left to keep doing the same job.

UN Security Council backs US Israel-Gaza ceasefire plan
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cw448x7lxggo
‘The United Nations Security Council has voted to support a US-proposed Israel-Gaza ceasefire plan.’
‘The resolution states that Israel has accepted the ceasefire proposal, and urges Hamas to agree to it too.’
Why on earth would they say that ‘Israel has accepted it’ in a resolution ?.
Then we get:
‘Monday’s resolution comes 10 days after President Biden said the Israelis had agreed to the plan. But Mr Netanyahu has not yet endorsed the US proposal.’
Israel say that any plan which does not include the complete destruction of Hamas is a non-starter. So is their ‘complete destruction’ in this plan ?.
This all stinks of Biden trying to throw Israel under a bus just like he did Afghanistan purely for his own political gain.
Every time I read a story like this, my respect for the UN drops another notch. They are ridiculous. Maybe gullible people fall for this kind of language in many of the shithole member states, but the blatant corruption of the whole organisation is a complete embarassment.
The guy in charge of UNRWA should have been fired as soon as Hamas started fighting from UN refugee camps, schools and hospitals. The fact he is still in that job tells me everything I need to know. It’s infested by the Left. Burn the whole lot down and start again.

Not really about bias – but today is another opportunity to ensure the blues are destroyed on 4th July. This time it is the blue manifesto .
Yawn – no one will read it -the political journo class will waste time and words on it – with no outcome ….
But I think the important thing is that Reform – with Farage – is now a more recognisable entity as opposed to a ‘name’ – and the BBC has been unable to demonise Reform so far …
Today
The BBC has a miserable welfare correspondent called Michael Buchanan – today Buchanan did one of those easy reports about the failing NHS .
Not much by way of explanation that there is no incentive to improve because the government will always be blamed – but the real reason is uncontrolled population growth – caused by the blues – and the impact of the ordinary British – who are just victims now …

On a morning when: ‘UK’s youngest knife murderers’ …two young boys just 12 years old (Daily Express); 12-year-old boys guilty of machete murder (Guardian); …murdering a 19-year-old… in a park in Wolverhampton… A judge will consider whether to indentify the boys after a jury unaninmously found them guilty (Telegraph)
One ponders for a moment precisely what factors: Mrs Justice Amanda Tipples, who presided over the murder trial… (Telegraph) – will take into consideration before reaching her decision as to whether to publicly name and shame the pair, as they say?
…she will hear representations from the press on whether to name the killers at a later hearing (Telegraph)
It is not necessarily a black and white issue…
One can but be reminded of the furore over: England riots: ‘The whites have become black’ says David Starkey… told BBC’s Newsnight… He also hit out at what he called the ”destructive, nihilistic gangster culture” which he said ”has become the fashion”. (BBC, August 2011)

Meanwhile, our state broadcast organ, the BBC, issues a report with about the most explicit justificatory argumentation yet seen by this reviewer for all those familiar media portrayals of ethnics in a positive light (and the explicit embargo on the negative) – running the gamut of afro-caribbean typical rocket scientists, architects and brain surgeons in Getty Images, stunt casting of black Romans and the like throughout the annals of ancient, medieval and early modern British history, to our much-mocked miscegenatory couples promoting the soft furnishings in DFS sofa adverts.
Media criticised for use of Saka image in England defeat (BBC) – apparently.
Some media outlets have been criticised for the “divisive” choice of using a photograph of Bukayo Saka to illustrate England’s defeat to Iceland. (BBC) – and there you have it, ladies and gents. That’s the directive. Positive winning portrayal only for black people.
To be fair, that’s why Gareth put the black lads up for the penalty shoot out – to have black winners – sadly, it all went south.
Says who?
Kick It Out chief executive Tony Burnett said the media needs to “remember its responsibilities”… “The words and pictures travel a long way, hitting harder than you might realise.” (BBC)
Ian Wright who said that “those deciding who goes on the back pages know what they’re doing”. The Star and the Sun were highlighted for using a Saka image on their back pages, while the Telegraph used 22-year-old Saka to illustrate a player ratings post on X. (BBC)
Delroy Corinaldi, executive director of Black Footballers Partnership, called the use of Saka imagery “divisive” and added: “We’ve been here before: the UK media has not learnt from its past behaviours.”(BBC)
Football journalist Darren Lewis, who is assistant editor of the Daily Mirror and president of the Sports Journalists’ Association, also criticised the use of Saka’s image in the wake of the defeat… “It is a reminder that we need to think about everything put into the public domain.”(BBC)
Saka, Rashford and Sancho were racially abused on social media in the wake of all three missing penalties in England’s 3-2 shootout loss to Italy in the Euro 2020 final. (BBC)
So there you have it. Our media has been put on warning.
Just think our old mate George Orwell and his Animal Farm: “Four legs good, two legs bad.” This phrase, which occurs in Chapter III, constitutes Snowball’s condensation of the Seven Commandments of Animalism… The phrase instances one of the novel’s many moments of propagandizing, which Orwell portrays as one example of how the elite class abuses language to control the lower classes… By the end of the novel, as the propagandistic needs of the leadership change, the pigs alter the chant to the similar-sounding but completely antithetical “Four legs good, two legs better.” (Thank you Spark Notes)
Gosh, this is sounding much too much like being back at school…
Teachers urge Labour to rethink VAT raid… amid fears it could lead to bigger class sizes in state schools (Telegraph); Voters support private school tax rise – but don’t think it will save any money (‘i’)
There’s your average voter for you – they naively support every tax rise so long as they assume they personally won’t have to pay it – they will merrily support every new government gimme they think will benefit them – and yet paradoxically they are now sophisticated enough to recognise the gig is almost up for our ever-expanding government and our ever-rising taxes.
Asiseeit – perhaps sport has been late to the party that coloured folk can only be ‘good ‘ and whitee can only be ‘bad’ – as seen – I understand – in modern cop shows ….
It seems inevitable that footy commentators will alter their output so that white players play badly but the coloured ones always play well … a new bias to spot …
At least in footy the practice at throwing Bananas at coloured players has ended – as much because the cost of bananas or lack of fruit in the diet .
I was taken to my first football match at 5 by my grandfather ( Sheffield Wednesday) I’m now 66 and I haven’t watched a game since they took the knee. It’s on for my husband to watch and I go and do other things, I know when it’s started and they kneel because I can hear the swearing. I just feel that the way things are going it’s going to develop into full on war between whites and blacks.
Your Grandad probably saw my dad play for the Wednesdays at the end of the War !
