Morning Scrobs,
I have a little “Italian Job” anecdote to share. A much loved-uncle of mine passed on a few years ago, and his son arranged possibly the finest ceremony I’ve attended. My uncle spent a lot of his working life as a bus driver, and as the curtains were closing, we were treated to Matt Munro singing “On days like these”. I’m sure you are aware that Matt Munro was formerly a bus driver too.
At this solemn time, the assembled were alone with their thoughts and memories. Except for me, I had a mental picture of Mr. Beckerman driving his Lamborghini Muria along the winding alpine roads which would not leave my head.
Halfway through for the ‘Holy member(s)’ – Durufle’s Requiem ‘In Paradisum’
And then, if they have time – (I will have plenty, of course) Duncan Browne’s ‘Salva Me’ sung by Isobel Buchanan _
And when everyone’s rushing to get out for the booze and Scotch eggs, I’ll want to hit them with ‘Dukes Travels’, – the final bits from ‘Duke’, by Genesis – my favourite band!
Trouble is, there’re a few words that Phil Collins sings at the end, and they aren’t apropriate for a burning ritual, so I’m going to ask Elder Daughter to edit them and fill in the gaps until ‘Dukes End’!
I am still very confused about these betting Tories. If for example, someone on this site had said something like, âRishi doesnât seem to be very busy after July 4thâ. I really donât think I would think, âI must dash off to the bookiesâ. (Ok, I realise it is probably all on line). But where to go from there? Did the gambling commissioner, as soon as the election was called, demand that all the book makers submit the names of who had put on the bets to see if he recognised them? I notice GBNews on the hour says the people accused areâ caught upâ in this scandal. I presume they cannot say they are guilty, but go as far as they dare. If GBNews goes that far, what does the BBC say? Did they treat Angela Raynor the same way, both about the NE curry and house selling.
At least I am not as naive as I was as a student. When in halls of residence the girl who had the room opposite told me her Dad was a bookmaker. I asked what sort of books, thinking novels or text books. A true story.
I also noticed on GBNews, when âChopperâ was interviewing Sir Keir his head was nearly falling off as he nodded agreement with Sir Keir. Questions also seemed to be of the sort, âyour energy plans are a wonderful idea, arenât they Keir? He really wasnât holding Sir Keir to account.
Pug – the nuance of Farage comment was steamrollered by comrade Robinson . Itâs the failure / refusal to see the world from the putin / Russian angle .
The msm will use the comment to beat reform Farage even if they know it is true âŠ
Imagine though – that putin thinks Ukraine will be joining NATO – with the direct threat to mother Russia that article 5 brings – so invade and take Ukrainian territory before accession to NATO happens
Fed, whichever way it is sized up, Farage was quite correct with his assertion. I would have preferred him to have used the adjective, “goaded” though.
As you quite rightly say, it will be a final few days of, ‘Get Farage’. Hopefully the thinking public will understand/recognise this.
Just before Russia went into Ukraine, I was surfing the net, as you do, and started to read an article written in 2017 about the Westâs interference there and how it was leading to war. Trouble was I was about to go out and thought I would go back to it on my returnâŠ.a d never did. But I took enough in to realise the West was not an innocent party. If in doubt, think of Hunter Biden on the Burisma (is my spelling correct, the Ukraine energy company) Board. That is only a tiny example. Like so many things happening in the world, the press hides the truth.
Until very recently we havenât been invaded . Russia in her lifetime has . One thing she learned is that space = defeat of the invader .
Russia is a paranoid country led by a paranoid leader .
If politicians canât see that they shouldnât be allowed to have power .
St Chopper must be chummy with all at GBN, as there is a lot of worshipping at his feet by the presenters, and the amount of airtime he gets compared to the previous encumbant of Political Editor, Darren McAffrey. He tends to say “GB News Viewers” a lot in his reports too.
I almost laughed at this desperate attempt to make another story about Bettygate from the BBC’s ‘political editor’ Chris Mason.
It says absolutely nothing. The entires story is:
‘To be clear, the people I was hearing from didnât know for certain an election was about to be called, but they were increasingly suspicious something was up.’
But it made another election-page headline to keep the story current didn’t it Chris ?.
And that BBC election page is more about slurring and criticising all the opposition than it is about the future of the country.
This situation with the BBC is now quite absurd. They know they can get away with anything as long as they don’t go past the red-lines they have found by pushing the limits in the past.
Thursday local ITV NewsPR had a Windrush story and web article
At the bottom on the article it quotes “David Lambert, director of Cultural Solutions UK”
so the article is PRasNews aimed at SHAPING our world
rather than reporting what actually happens.
I take it that Cultural Solutions UK is probably a one man band David Lambert who earns money from race grifting.
It’s about a a Jamaican guy who fought worked in the Lincolnshire RAF in WW2
( First drove a sanitation wagon*, but soon became a chauffeur for the Chief Armament Officer in the Dambusters.
* Does that mean he was taking the piss ?)
Lived back in Jamaica and came to UK some years after the war to live in Boston as an accountant.
“but returned and settled in Boston when the British Government invited people from the Caribbean to help fill post-war work shortages”
Simon Webb makes convincing arguments that that is a false narrative
That UK government never invited people in.
But that rather the Caribbean governments had problems with unemployment so made arrangements with UK corps to export workers to them .
And that Windrush itself was not a ship full of invited workers
But rather a ship that stopped en route in the Caribbean to pick up people classed as tourists, a few who then sought work when they arrived on the UK.
The title of this one infers Israel are just as much to blame as the UN.
However when you read the story, you discover the UN daren’t collect the aid because armed gangs are looting all the lorries. 75% of all aid is being stolen.
Quite how the UN (and Yolande) dare to blame Israel is beyond me. This is their job and their responsibility. They seem to think it’s up to Isarel to ‘have a plan to fill the power vacuum’ with the country they are at war with.
Meanwhile:
‘International airdrops have now largely stopped but the maritime corridor from Cyprus began to operate again on Thursday. There have been a series of difficulties with a floating pier set up by the US military at a cost of some $230m (ÂŁ182m), which Mr Petropoulos, from OCHA, describes as âa failureâ.’
This entire war has been hijacked by the Left as a huge virtue-signalling opportunity with absolutely no substance behind them. Mountains are made of molehills if they can be used against Israel while everything else is ignored.
The two big lessons from this whole farce are
a) Hamas and the people in Gaza don’t give a shit about anybody else. They don’t care one bit about the lives of their countrymen or their country. They are closer to animals than civilised humans.
b) The UN is utterly and completely unfit for purpose. It has become infested with left-wing ideologically driven employees instead of the right people for the job. Just like the BBC.
Melanie Phillipsâ article about there being no famine in Gaza dropped into my inbox yesterday. Here is an excerpt.
Instead, the liberal international establishment has repeatedly demanded that Israel immediately stop the war, thus inescapably surrendering to Hamas and forfeiting the military leverage required to free the remaining hostages.
Yet now, the famine claims have been debunked.
The Famine Review Committee (FRC) conducts investigations into world hunger on behalf of a partnership formed between governments, international organisations and NGOs.
In March, the committee reported that âfamine is now projected and imminentâ in northern Gaza and was expected to take hold before the end of May. Preventing such a famine, it stated, required âan immediate political decision for a ceasefire together with a significant and immediate increase in humanitarian and commercial access to the entire population of Gazaâ.
In April, the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), a food security monitoring initiative founded in 1985 by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), went even further by stating there was âreasonable evidenceâ that, since April, northern Gaza had been experiencing a famine and this would persist at least until the end of July.
But on June 4, the Famine Review Committee published a report in which it rejected the FEWS NET analysis as not âplausibleâ and said it could not endorse its famine projection.
The committee said there was a lack of reliable evidence about the number of trucks entering Gaza and the level of humanitarian assistance that was arriving and being distributed around its various areas.
âForensic investigation reveals Hind Rajab’s car was hit with 355 bullets and finds it “not plausible” that the Israeli tank couldn’t see children inside the carâ
A) Really?
B) Who do Hamas like sitting with?
C) Panorama to âinvestigateâ next?
“355 bullets. If youâre still supporting this, supporting the killing of kids in Gaza, youâre a sociopath. No other word for it.”
“Forensic investigation reveals Hind Rajab’s car was hit with 355 bullets and finds it “not plausible” that the Israeli tank couldn’t see children inside the car”

Middle East: Why Did Hamas Win Palestinian Poll?
“All the time, Israel and the United States and Europe said that we do not need Hamas to win,” Kukali said. “So that means telling the Palestinian people to vote for Hamas, because people here are not happy with the Europeans or the Americans and they think [those countries] are helping Israel. So if the United States or Israel says âwe donât need Hamasâ then the people will vote for Hamas.”
A gotcha has to be some outrageous blasphemy, some unspeakable transgression, uttered, nonetheless, against one of those golden idol central tenets of the prevailing belief system. The heretic, now nakedly exposed by his own word, may perhaps ultimately recant, but he must remain condemned, anyway.
So it was with the celebrated female author of the Harry Potter novels.
Jay Kay was the funny hat-wearing singer and songwriter of acid jazz and funk band Jamiroquai
Meanwhile, feminist, boss-girl and former darling of the left, J K Rowling, drifts further rightward – culturally at least: J K Rowling: Labour has turned its back on women… Author says she would struggle to vote for Starmer and doesn’t trust his judgement (Times)
They do say a conservative is simply a liberal that hasn’t yet been mugged by reality – sometimes literally.
And then of course there’s Sir Keir & Cos tax plans to consider: Labour draws up wealth tax options… according to sources that have spoken to the Guardian… – so I think we can take this as being near gospel, so to speak: The proposals under consideration include increases in capital gains tax (CGT)… significant changes to inheritance tax (Guardian)
Rich foreigners turn away from UK… “Brexit happened and the Conservatives promised to make the UK like Singapore and instead they turned this place into Belarus” said a billionaire… (FT) – that’s a somewhat obscure reference for us poor parochial Brits to catch but I’m guessing there’s a good chance this chap who speaks anonymously via the pink paper likely hails from that same benighted former Soviet republic and knows a thing or two more than we do about the state of Belarus: …businessman who has lived in London for 15 years (FT) – and now suddenly there’s a looming socialist branded government over here that doesn’t even apologise for raising our taxes – sometimes a poor oligarch just can’t catch a break.
Still, in our globalised world there’s always pastures new: …is now moving his tax reasidency to Abu Dhabi. “Security is now a major issue and another contributing factor to the tax reasons for why people are wanting to leave” (FT) – not trusting New Labour New Blair Starmer to tackle crime and the causes of crime, I sense.
So the foreign entrepreneurs we invited in will now bugger off so as to pay their taxes elsewhere – leaving us with the all the squeegee merchants, Uber drivers and vape shop proprietors that came in with them and tend to enjoy the free schooling, free healthcare, free childcare, rent subsidies, tax credits, income support, etc etc – but we digress.
On 4 May 1982 The Sun newspaper reported British naval attacks on two Argentine vessels with the memorable GOTCHA! headline
gotcha: informal, exclamation
I have got you (used to express satisfaction at having captured or defeated someone or uncovered their faults).
noun
1. North American
An instance of catching someone out or exposing them to ridicule.
Farage criticised for saying West provoked Ukraine war. The Reform UK leader told the BBC that “of course” the war was President Vladimir Putin’s fault. But he added that the expansion of the EU and Nato gave him a “reason” to tell the Russian people “they’re coming for us again” (BBC)
Our BBC, despite the opening shouty gotcha headline, is rather measured in reporting the context of the Farage statement. Afterall they are in general election extra careful mode. The desperate Tories and virtue-signalling Labourites, however, act like mean prim bitchy schoolgirls chanting in the playground “Ummm, you said a bad word, I’m tellin’ on you!”
Conservative Home Secretary James Cleverly said Mr Farage was echoing Mr Putin’s “vile justification” for the war and Labour branded him “unfit” for any political office. (BBC)
I refer readers back to where we came in – the anatomy of the gotcha. The unspeakable transgression, uttered, against one of those golden idol central tenets of the prevailing belief system.
Putin and Russia are synonyms for evil – this you must acknowledge as though a catechism: used to instruct the young, to win converts, and to testify to the faith) (Thank you Britannica)
See how the term Russian is deployed today by the Guardian in their headline story almost as though it were an expletive like bastard, sodding or fucking…
300m NHS patient records stolen by Russian hackers (Guardian) – disgust extra emphasised when placed adjacent and in contsrast to the purity sanctity and holiness of our sainted NHS
On a lighter note the Gruan presents us with Glastonbury the cartoon – we like to look at cartoons
We can tell from the frontpage teaser what’s in with the Guardianistas music-wise and what they are signalling as decidedly out.
Set you want to see – in other words what the Gruan is promoting – that’s a rather dark-skinned young lady, drawn evidently dressed in her bra and pants, one fist raised and the other clutching the mic, presumably intoning some crowd-pleasing anthem – and if the lyric themes of the likes of our top songstresses Taylor Swift or Adele are anything to go by, slagging off her former boyfriends.
Set your friends want to see – in other words what the Gruan considers as naff – that’s a pale-skinned intense-looking young chap, oblivious of his surroundings, headphoned-up while creatively noodling and nurdling on his keyboard or record deck
I’m afraid rock music, just like sport for the Guardian, is only of interest when it becomes a dumbed-down matter of providing a vehicle for left-leaning ideological content and context.
The formerly serious Times is little better: The woman on Putin’s most wanted list – she good, him bad.
As for the mildly conservative Telegraph: ‘Normal’ boy, 15, jailed for life over stabbing… from a “loving family” who stabbed a fellow pupil… – well, not all that ‘normal’ then, eh?
Although naming the victim what the frontpage Telegraph column fails to spell out – although perhaps they do eventually get around to it on: Page 13 – well beyond my present remit is: Bardia Shojaeifard: Boy, 15, jailed for murder of Alfie Lewis in knife attack outside school in Leeds. West Yorkshire Police says Bardia Shojaeifard targeted Alfie Lewis “in a premeditated and planned attack using murderous violence”… Mr Justice Cotter removed reporting restrictions that prevented him from being identified on Friday… with a minimum of 13 years behind bars (Sky News)
Whereas: New anguish for Lawrences… Stephen’s killer’s freedom bid… applies for parole after serving just 14 years (protests the Mirror)
I think Farage made a mistake discussing putin – and knew it as he was saying it . There problem is that opponents have to be branded as âevilâ in order to carry out hostilities against them âŠ
The 2 easy examples are hitler and Stalin – the UK did deals with both of these but then decided they were monsters – which they were –
We are in the same position with putin – Farage âadmires â putin because putin got to the top and stayed there – not what he actually does .
I remember – being much younger – just accepting the USSR as evil – but then I got lectured on the Russian viewpoint – surrounded by enemies who want to destroy it – hence the need for buffer states ⊠in the same way that the UK is a buffer state for the US ⊠– a floating early warning system for missiles from the east âŠ
ONLY THE SECOND PART WILL BE REPORTED – Farage criticised for saying West provoked Ukraine war. The Reform UK leader told the BBC that âof courseâ the war was President Vladimir Putinâs fault. But he added that the expansion of the EU and Nato gave him a âreasonâ to tell the Russian people âtheyâre coming for us againâ (BBC)
TOADY Watch #1 – the BBC are terrified of Reform and Nigel Farage and those who do not hold the Hard Left wing views of the BBC
Nick Robinson somewhere in East Anglia, emitting CO2 in unnecessary travel out of BBC entitlement, tries and fails at twisting Nigel Farage’s words from an ‘interview’ Nick did with Nigel Farage recently (last night?). What Nick Robinson is ignorant of, apart from the BBC’s obsession with Global Warming and Climate Change, is that the proceedings of the EU ‘Parliament’ are filmed and what Nigel Farage said about the EU expanding ever eastwards is on video record. Did TOADY play a clip of NATO Secretary General, George Robertson, also saying – effectively – the same as Nigel Farage?
Nick Robinson appears to be also ignorant of the fact that Baroness Cathy Ashton, the well-known oil painting, as an EU Commissioner went to Maidan Square in Ukraine and elsewhere in Ukraine to try to tempt Ukraine into the EU fold. If I recall correctly that happened in 2014 just as Nigel Farage was standing up in the EU in Brussels making his warning.
Up2
I think – this time – the influence of the msm to poison reform /farage will be more limited than they think . With nut nut it was swamp games amongst politicians – but for this – itâs decent people who are Fedup with the blues and just canât do the reds âŠ
And know that only reform puts decent people first
Vote reform
BTW – viewing / listening figures for Robinson are not going to Be much – people are more interested in the crap England team
Would-be Brexit blocker Gina Miller getting just about zero acceptance for he propaganda in Epsom this morning. She and her little helpers have largest handfuls of pamphlets and getting cold-shouldered by passers-by.
Great!!
Fed, I agree. Even with my faulty, lapsing, memory remember Cathy Ashton going to Ukraine as an EU Commissioner for something or other, in order to dangle bundles of Euros in front of the Ukrainian Government.
Looks like the BBC is going to spend the weekend on the Farage Putin comment . No thought it given to the expansion of NATO -or how it is seen from outside the NATO bloc .
I think there was an expectation in the mindset of Russians that when the Warsaw pact ended the nato pact would go to – but of course – it didnât – which in their mind is going to signal hostility âŠ
Donât get me wrong – Russia is never going to be a âfriend â and putin may have got the taste for taking back territory âŠ
As for comments by the swamp – Wallace -George Robertson – only to be expected – together with what will now be âdemands â for âapologies â when none are due
And when Reform do well theyâll say the Russians did it âŠ
BBC interviewed ex blue labour Defence Secretary Ben Wallace who pointed out that NATO is a defensive organisation .
Maybe thatâs how we see it here in the West , but Russians donât see it that way , unfortunately but thatâs the way it is .
Especially as NATO bombed Serbia which Russia has seen as a friend ( which is why it went into the First World War ) .
NATO is a terrorist organization just like any other. It uses violence against civilians to further the political goals of the NWO. Serbia is a classic example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gladio
Remember all of those bombings of civilians in Western Europe during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s? Many people were too young but I was old enough to remember the dreadful Bologna train station bombing in 1980. Bologna was an Operation Gladio operation carried out with the blessing of the senior leadership of NATO.
It has also been carrying out similar operations in Ukraine. It’s quite clear this war between Russia and Ukraine has been orchestrated by both sides as it serves the interests of the criminals in the East just as it does those in the West. The goal is the total enslavement of the world’s populations under a digital CBDC social credit score system and if anyone thinks Russia is coming to save us, think again. Both sides want you dead, maimed, or enslaved. https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com/p/friendly-banker-declares-russia-world
Itâs the first anniversary of the death of black Caribbean poet Benjamin Zephaniah.
A sort of Pam Ayers with dreadlocks, so not exactly a Philip Larkin or Ted Hughes.
Yet this justified a prolonged main feature on Toady this morning and a cue for some race-baiting and Windrush angst and reminders about financial âcompensationâ âŠ..(which may be slow but a darn sight faster than for, say, sub-postmasters or infected blood recipients) .
So hardly a priority I suggest for around 90% of the population.
But for the BBC, an essential contribution to the agenda.
PS Dr Who appears to be both black and gay, perfectly representing around âŠ..errrâŠ..0.3% of the population!

Well, it was always expected, but now the gloves are off and the dirty fighting begins. There’s a pact between the loathsome BBC and those pretend Pitbulls at the Daily Mail, over the Russia issue. They were going to find something…It was only a matter of time.
I find the Mail these days particularly pointless. It has a quite feeble comments page where it pleads to its readers to vote Conservative. It sounds desperate.
“Of course, we share the frustration of so many who voted Tory in 2019 and understand why they might want to punish the party.” They waffle on about letting Labour loose on our borders and giving us higher taxes”…that a vote for Reform is a vote for Labour. We’ve heard it all before.
We’ve had the highest tax hikes since 1948 and immigration that is so off the scale even the great Enoch wouldn’t believe it. Illegal immigration is actually now much higher than legal immigration was before 1997. The Tories have adopted every green issue going, refuse to even look at the BBC licence fee and they’ve messed up Brexit. Actually, they haven’t simply messed up; they’ve betrayed us.
We don’t have a Conservative Party in anything but name. These are socialists in the slow lane. They’re taking us to the same undesirable destination, but they’re cruising along in the middle lane, hoping no one will notice…
You can only use the old trick of, “Labour will be even worse” so many times.
The establishment media have been looking for a chink in Reform’s armour and now they think they’ve found it, I don’t think we will the last of it until the election is over. Hopefully Farage will survive this, but he needs to think carefully as the msm are willing to twist every little thing he says. The DT is using the same tactics too.
I think they have been waiting for Nige to say something really stupid but this campaign he has been very careful, so they will continue to portray him as someone working for Russia and not attempt to explain what he actually said. The “Farage is literally Hitler” tactic didn’t work so now it will be “Farage is literally Putin”. It’s not quite as good, but it will work to some extent and with only a couple of weeks to go it will be a case of ‘any smear will do’.
Yasser
I bet there are quite a few damaging red / blue stories about – including a minister betting on the election date – but the msm will do all it can to suppress them in order to keep the attack on Reform Farage going ,,,,,
They must be desperate for another dolt reform candidate to have stupid comments from years back which the blue corrupt âvetting company â chose not to âvet ââŠ.
Farage? Not the sort of man who would glibly dodge a direct question by using bullshit so he cannot destroy his image of making honest assertions. If he did? Well, he’d be branded, “Same as all the others”. The flip side of the media coin.
I have no problem with Nigel Farage saying a few truths which the MSM avoid. The Beeboids probably don’t inderstand his tactics but if one watches the way he takes the flak, listens, waits until the shrieks and wails have died down, he then easily manages to move on to the next facts, again, avoided by the MSM, and takes the stage yet again!
Any publicity, good or bad, works well!
He’s far, far cleverer than the bog standard prospective MP, of any hue! The crap I’ve had from the political parties in Tunbridge Wells is derisory, with a foreign face on the ‘conservatives’ sort of leaflet, bringing in a nobody from nowhere for some reason, means that the Limp Demons will surely get in, but at least they shelved the tories’ utter waste of time and money on the ‘people’s palace’ they wanted in an unpoilt park, so they have some gardening experience!
I haven’t seen a leaflet for Reform, but will vote for them anyway!
Sometime that show is just high comedy entertainment – unintentional of course .

BBC News – coloured folk as victims – bought to the UK from their third world s holes to fill jobs left empty ( by the sacrifice of white men fighting and dying beating the nazis – the bbc left this bit out )
No one says – if the UK was so bad why didnât you go back – in fact why not go back now âŠ.. single ticker canât be too expensive âŠ
The Government of the day went so far as to pay for the construction of prison(s) in Jamaica so they could ship back the criminals to serve their time out in their ‘homelands’.
Just for once, let us try this argument with an open mind, employing arithmetic and geography and going easy on the adjectives. Two great land powers face each other. One of these powers, Russia, has given up control over 700,000 square miles of valuable territory. The other, the European Union, has gained control over 400,000 of those square miles. Which of these powers is expanding? There remain 300,000 neutral square miles between the two, mostly in Ukraine. From Moscowâs point of view, this is already a grievous, irretrievable loss. As Zbigniew Brzezinski, one of the canniest of the old Cold Warriors, wrote back in 1997, âUkraine⊠is a geopolitical pivot because its very existence as an independent country helps to transform Russia. Without Ukraine, Russia ceases to be a Eurasian empire.â This diminished Russia feels the spread of the EU and its armed wing, Nato, like a blow on an unhealed bruise. In February 2007, for instance, Vladimir Putin asked sulkily, âAgainst whom is this expansion intended?â I have never heard a clear answer to that question. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/it-s-nato-that-s-empire-building-not-putin/

EU enlargement
Enlargement policy applies to countries currently aspiring to join the EU and potential candidates. The prospect of membership is a powerful stimulus for democratic and economic reforms in countries that want to become EU members.
EU enlargement
Who can join?
Any European country can apply for membership if it respects the EU’s democratic values and is committed to promoting them.
A country can only join if it meets all the membership criteria.
Current candidate countries are:
Albania
Bosnia and Herzegovina

Montenegro
North Macedonia
Serbia
TĂŒrkiye Ukraine
I think Putin’s strategy has always been to Lord over the old USSR states despite their new-found democratic principles. For this, ‘His’ property needs a distinct border between ‘His’ states and the evil west. He pops in to those states from time to time to remind them who is ‘Boss’. Georgia et al. any one? Problem for Putin as the ‘representative’ of Russia i.e. the thug / bully of the East, that game has run its course. Hitherto, no western entity has really stepped up to the plate to teach him a lesson and control his ‘control’ inclinations.
Until now.
It had to happen. Putin overreached. Overstepped the mark and he’s now paying the penalty for it and that will be for decades ahead.
Today “Farage man bad ! He’s a Putin stooge ”
is the lead story every hour on every single one of the UK’s multitude of DIVERSE media networks including GBnews
The âpee tapeâ claim, explained
The absurd-sounding, still-unverified tale of Trump and Russian prostitutes is back again. Hereâs where it came from.
by Andrew Prokop
Apr 23, 2018, 8:17 PM GMT+1
But while promoting his book, Comey told ABC News that he thought there was at least a possibility that it really took place. âI honestly never thought these words would come out of my mouth, but I donât know whether the current President of the United States was with prostitutes peeing on each other in Moscow in 2013,â he said. âItâs possible, but I donât know.â
Hi, I’m Bob Boeing, founder of Boeing.
You know, flying can be
a stressful experience
for people of all ages.
Here at Boeing
we know, you feel safest
when you’re flying on a plane
made by a company
that, above all else, prioritizes
diversity.
Sorry, Steve.
Welcome aboard,
Black Woman Steve.
I don’t have to use this right?
You do know I’m just an actor?
Classic Black Woman, Steve.
As you’re flying through the air
at 30,000ft in a pressurized metal
tube being propelled
by highly explosive jet fuel,
you can rest easy
knowing that you’re in a Boeing.
And at Boeing,
we have stringent standards
making sure to hire our airplane
technicians based on the single
most important factor.
What they like to do in the bedroom.
Now we institute regular
surprise certification checks
to make sure everyone is qualified.
Show of hands. Who’s gay?
I am, I am.
I’m a methodist.
Close enough.
We know when you board an airplane.
Your first question is, who’s the pilot?
Well, there’s no need to worry
your pretty little head about that
when you’re on a Boeing.
Our new oppression detection
technology scans the pilots
to make sure they’re part
of a marginalized group, like women,
Pacific Islanders, or even the blind.
(Humming) Access granted.
Straight male detected.
Whoa!
Looks like this white man
is blasting off again.
So next time
a door falls off one of our planes,
you can take pride in knowing
it was slapped on there by a minority
or a gay.
Or maybe both.
And when your plane is coming in hot
and the landing gear fails to deploy.
Just remember, all
our technicians have had extensive
DEI training and most of them are LGBTQ. Only a bigot would
have a problem with that.
You’re not a bigot, are you?
I didn’t think so.
So remember, if it’s not a Boeing,
I ain’t going.

“We found evidence that Saudi border guards have used explosive weapons and shot people at close range.

South western KSA has been “injun country” for decades – while i was there quite a lot in the 1980s there was sporadic ambushes of travellers + tribal disputes spicing up the banditry.
It didn’t help that many Saudis regarded “Yemmies” as sub human vermin…. I somehow doubt that’s actually changed much.

âYouâre happy to censor for the repressive authoritarian Chinese regime like for instance with Google.cn,â said Hawley (R-Missouri). âHappy to censor away any mention of Tiananmen Square, happy to help the Chinese government maintain control of all information within the country, happy to help them control the information flow to their own citizens. You’re happy to do all of that. Wouldn’t you call that censorship with an ideological agenda?â

Hard to believe when it has such amazing scenes as this. I kid you not, this is a promotional picture from the Radio Times. Probably the best bit in the whole episode.
What makes me laugh is how they desperately try to leech previous succesful series by rehashing anything they can and also give jobs to all their old friends who can’t get work any more. That’s Anita Dobson. On the Left in case you have been radicalised by the BBC and are now colourblind.
Can’t wait for the viewing figures. Will it be a new recordbreaker ?.

TOADY Watch #2 – more misandry and paganism from the BBC
Suranne Jones (actress, brought up a Roman Catholic) has made a programme about witches. JustRemainIn Webb was the interviewer. “So witches were mostly women, then?” asked Justin. Suranne: “No, some were men.”
Previously Suranne had said James VI of Scotland (James 1, King of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales) was afraid of witches but as something of a theologian he investigated witches and their spells. James 1 of England is of course known for the Authorised King James version of the Bible, so as someone inclined to Christianity or as a devout believer, it is highly unlikely he would be afraid of witches.
Perhaps Suranne has a thing about King James 1 because the Gunpowder Plot occurred during his reign?

How were the issues chosen? We (BBC LEFT LEANING GROUP THINK) have selected EDITED/REMOVED/ETC issues highlighted in polling company Ipsos Mori’s Issues Index, a monthly survey that measures the things the public believe to be the most important facing the country.
And even by the BBC’s standards, here we have and example of the most extreme of racist double standards.
Hamas attack the IDF from their bases in UN refugee centres, UN schools, UN hospitals and anywhere else. 100% using them as human shields because when they get killed, they can be photographed by racists working for Getty so the BBC can use them and added to their ‘death total’ which the BBC tell us in every article.
‘The individual was eventually transferred to the Red Crescent for treatment.’
There’s your key line BBC. He didn’t have his head cut off in cold blood. He was taken to hospital. And there’s no way the IDF would put a savage like that inside a jeep with them.
They even blurred out the terrorists face to protect him from something. No idea what.
An absolutely sickening story from the BBC trying to infer they were using him as a human shield while they hide the fact Hamas do it all the time. Shame on you, you racists.

The BBC thought that Reform UK was a little protest party , a Far Right fringe . Then Nigel stepped up , they overtook the Tories in the polls and then wallopâŠ.story after story , investigation after investigation into any tiny misdemeanour of any candidate.
They are rattled, you could see the anti Reform party rhetoric ramping up as soon as they finally realised that yet again , just like in 2016 and Brexit , the BBC are on the wrong side . They have now gone full on attack mode
Yet still , Reform Uk Facebook numbers surging , Nigel Farage Facebook numbers nearing 1.2 million followers and same with his new Tik Tok . Any posts get thousands of likes and the comments get hundreds.
Like he says , SOMETHING IS HAPPENING. Those of us who arenât blinkered with hate like the BBC can see it , this is 2016 part 2 . Yet the BBC , again , completely missing the mood of the nation, it really is quite a skill they have.

George Peppard, in the role of Colonel John “Hannibal” Smith, in the TV show The A-Team, liked to say “There’s a plan in everything, kid, and I love it when a plan comes together.”
And so it is this weekend that we read the headline: Reform candidates’ offensive remarks seen by BBC – what a busy little bee our Laura Kuenssberg, Presenter of Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, has been: …a wide range of offensive remarks online about women in the past, the BBC can reveal – which serving to further chum the waters lands quickly in the wake of: Farage defends Ukraine war remarks after backlash… In an earlier BBC Panorama interview (BBC) – a fine example of the ‘backlash in response to’ strand of keepy uppy journalism – ie keeping the story going for a bit longer.
Meanwhile the Guardian on Sunday which is the Observer tops the BBC press review line-up today (natch) and provides the gynaeceum which is BBC News staff the material for a not quite the anti-Labour jibe what you thought it was at first glance headline to introduce their online beauty parade of the nation’s frontpages…
‘Infected with Putin virus’ and Starmer growth plan ‘doomed’ (BBC)
In long form that apparent Sir Keir diss headline turns out to be a petition, nay a plea, on behalf of our temporarily hibernating deeply ingrained Remainerdom, to the man who – under a slightly different brief (Comrade Jeremy Corbyn v The Crown, Britain, Regina and all who sail in Her) – fronted up Labour’s second Brexit referendum policy. One oughtn’t to call him Sir Flip-Flop – ace lawyer that he is he’s more of your Taxi For Hire (TM coined by former Labour minister Stephen Byers who described himself as being like a âcab for hireâ in the 2010 lobbying scandal)
Starmer’s growth plan ‘doomed’ without access to EU markets… Rejoin the customs union – top economists… 56% of voters say Brexit bad for economy (Observer) – top econimists, yet? Not just yer run of the mill economists – what a clever construction – assuming we’re not all suddenly bathing in a jacuzzi of wealth – like cartoon character Scrooge McDuck – five minutes after Starmer enters number 10 Downing Street to the tune of D:Ream’s Things Can Only Get Better stuck on repeat on Steve Bray’s beatbox – as the clouds part and the sun shines down on the warmest, hottest, most glorious post-election morning eva since records began (TM the Met Office) then we’ve got the excuses in early – it’s jus’ cos we’re not in the EU
There’s some more revealing going on – revealing… that tends to be when journos want to tell you half the story
Constipation nation we ain’t
20,000: the major sewage leaks total in past decade… the Observer can reveal – gosh, I wonder why that might be? Could it have anything to do with the ‘sheer weight of traffic’ as they tend to say in explanation of the congestion on our roads? There are those who claim, despite the census, there may be anything up to 90 million people availing themselves of our Great British toilet facilities, courtesy the one goverment department that’s been pulling it’s weight productivity-wise these days – the passport and visa issuing office.

I cannot bear to listen to it myself but I’m told that yesterday a most amusing event occurred on the BBC s flagship “Any answers”, the phone in follow up to that very tired, boring, stale “Any Questions” ( It lost its audience when it lost its impartiality).
The event was ..wait for it ….a lack of callers, even the noisy cranks that usually enjoy a moment in the spotlight have given up with this BBC nonsense.
How embarassing…I suspect those in the know within the worlds favourite broadcaster put it down to just bad luck and/or a stupid audience.
Friend – interesting incident and one that chimes with my current thinking .
What the msm doesnt get is that maybe 99% of the population has other things to do when it comes to politics .
They see a brand – uniparty or reform and plonk for one or the other.
Internet spats on x or the bbc dont count for much other than those in the swamp looking for gotchas / scalps for their own careers – see Robinson / meesh .

Morning Scrobs,
I have a little “Italian Job” anecdote to share. A much loved-uncle of mine passed on a few years ago, and his son arranged possibly the finest ceremony I’ve attended. My uncle spent a lot of his working life as a bus driver, and as the curtains were closing, we were treated to Matt Munro singing “On days like these”. I’m sure you are aware that Matt Munro was formerly a bus driver too.
At this solemn time, the assembled were alone with their thoughts and memories. Except for me, I had a mental picture of Mr. Beckerman driving his Lamborghini Muria along the winding alpine roads which would not leave my head.
Anyway, things to do; “Get yer skates on Mick”.

I am still very confused about these betting Tories. If for example, someone on this site had said something like, âRishi doesnât seem to be very busy after July 4thâ. I really donât think I would think, âI must dash off to the bookiesâ. (Ok, I realise it is probably all on line). But where to go from there? Did the gambling commissioner, as soon as the election was called, demand that all the book makers submit the names of who had put on the bets to see if he recognised them? I notice GBNews on the hour says the people accused areâ caught upâ in this scandal. I presume they cannot say they are guilty, but go as far as they dare. If GBNews goes that far, what does the BBC say? Did they treat Angela Raynor the same way, both about the NE curry and house selling.
At least I am not as naive as I was as a student. When in halls of residence the girl who had the room opposite told me her Dad was a bookmaker. I asked what sort of books, thinking novels or text books. A true story.
I also noticed on GBNews, when âChopperâ was interviewing Sir Keir his head was nearly falling off as he nodded agreement with Sir Keir. Questions also seemed to be of the sort, âyour energy plans are a wonderful idea, arenât they Keir? He really wasnât holding Sir Keir to account.

Just before Russia went into Ukraine, I was surfing the net, as you do, and started to read an article written in 2017 about the Westâs interference there and how it was leading to war. Trouble was I was about to go out and thought I would go back to it on my returnâŠ.a d never did. But I took enough in to realise the West was not an innocent party. If in doubt, think of Hunter Biden on the Burisma (is my spelling correct, the Ukraine energy company) Board. That is only a tiny example.

Election betting claims put focus on who knew what and when
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c066lmkr33po
I almost laughed at this desperate attempt to make another story about Bettygate from the BBC’s ‘political editor’ Chris Mason.
It says absolutely nothing. The entires story is:
‘To be clear, the people I was hearing from didnât know for certain an election was about to be called, but they were increasingly suspicious something was up.’
But it made another election-page headline to keep the story current didn’t it Chris ?.
And that BBC election page is more about slurring and criticising all the opposition than it is about the future of the country.
This situation with the BBC is now quite absurd. They know they can get away with anything as long as they don’t go past the red-lines they have found by pushing the limits in the past.

Thursday local ITV NewsPR had a Windrush story and web article
At the bottom on the article it quotes “David Lambert, director of Cultural Solutions UK”
so the article is PRasNews aimed at SHAPING our world
rather than reporting what actually happens.
I take it that Cultural Solutions UK is probably a one man band David Lambert who earns money from race grifting.
It’s about a a Jamaican guy who
foughtworked in the Lincolnshire RAF in WW2( First drove a sanitation wagon*, but soon became a chauffeur for the Chief Armament Officer in the Dambusters.
* Does that mean he was taking the piss ?)
Lived back in Jamaica and came to UK some years after the war to live in Boston as an accountant.
“but returned and settled in Boston when the British Government invited people from the Caribbean to help fill post-war work shortages”
Simon Webb makes convincing arguments that that is a false narrative
That UK government never invited people in.
But that rather the Caribbean governments had problems with unemployment so made arrangements with UK corps to export workers to them .
And that Windrush itself was not a ship full of invited workers
But rather a ship that stopped en route in the Caribbean to pick up people classed as tourists, a few who then sought work when they arrived on the UK.
This is the second time this story has been done
Cos they basically did the exact story in February when it was his 100th birthday
But now they shoehorn the magic word “Windrush” in

‘Inside Gaza aid depot: Food waits as Israel and UN trade blame’
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cv22ymmp46ro
Another article from the racist anti-semite Yolande Knell who has been called out for many times but the BBC are quite happy to allow to continue her reporting because it fits right in with their own racism.
https://camera-uk.org/2014/11/15/bbcs-knell-misrepresents-netanyahu-statement-side-steps-pa-incitement/
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2020/06/truly-shameful-bbc-israeli-propaganda/comment-page-1/
https://camera-uk.org/2023/05/02/bbcs-knell-amplifies-palestinian-authority-tantrum/
The title of this one infers Israel are just as much to blame as the UN.
However when you read the story, you discover the UN daren’t collect the aid because armed gangs are looting all the lorries. 75% of all aid is being stolen.
Quite how the UN (and Yolande) dare to blame Israel is beyond me. This is their job and their responsibility. They seem to think it’s up to Isarel to ‘have a plan to fill the power vacuum’ with the country they are at war with.
Meanwhile:
‘International airdrops have now largely stopped but the maritime corridor from Cyprus began to operate again on Thursday. There have been a series of difficulties with a floating pier set up by the US military at a cost of some $230m (ÂŁ182m), which Mr Petropoulos, from OCHA, describes as âa failureâ.’
This entire war has been hijacked by the Left as a huge virtue-signalling opportunity with absolutely no substance behind them. Mountains are made of molehills if they can be used against Israel while everything else is ignored.
The two big lessons from this whole farce are
a) Hamas and the people in Gaza don’t give a shit about anybody else. They don’t care one bit about the lives of their countrymen or their country. They are closer to animals than civilised humans.
b) The UN is utterly and completely unfit for purpose. It has become infested with left-wing ideologically driven employees instead of the right people for the job. Just like the BBC.

Melanie Phillipsâ article about there being no famine in Gaza dropped into my inbox yesterday. Here is an excerpt.
Instead, the liberal international establishment has repeatedly demanded that Israel immediately stop the war, thus inescapably surrendering to Hamas and forfeiting the military leverage required to free the remaining hostages.
Yet now, the famine claims have been debunked.
The Famine Review Committee (FRC) conducts investigations into world hunger on behalf of a partnership formed between governments, international organisations and NGOs.
In March, the committee reported that âfamine is now projected and imminentâ in northern Gaza and was expected to take hold before the end of May. Preventing such a famine, it stated, required âan immediate political decision for a ceasefire together with a significant and immediate increase in humanitarian and commercial access to the entire population of Gazaâ.
In April, the Famine Early Warning Systems Network (FEWS NET), a food security monitoring initiative founded in 1985 by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), went even further by stating there was âreasonable evidenceâ that, since April, northern Gaza had been experiencing a famine and this would persist at least until the end of July.
But on June 4, the Famine Review Committee published a report in which it rejected the FEWS NET analysis as not âplausibleâ and said it could not endorse its famine projection.
The committee said there was a lack of reliable evidence about the number of trucks entering Gaza and the level of humanitarian assistance that was arriving and being distributed around its various areas.

I’m amazed people in tanks can see anything at all. I wonder if the ‘investigators’ have ever been in one.
And of course if Israel don’t let Hamas know they will be taken out regardless then every Hamas car is going to have a child taped to the roof.
‘Middle East Eye’ are about as unbiased and honest as those government officials in Gaza. I regularly end up there when chasing outrgaeous claims.

Middle East: Why Did Hamas Win Palestinian Poll?
“All the time, Israel and the United States and Europe said that we do not need Hamas to win,” Kukali said. “So that means telling the Palestinian people to vote for Hamas, because people here are not happy with the Europeans or the Americans and they think [those countries] are helping Israel. So if the United States or Israel says âwe donât need Hamasâ then the people will vote for Hamas.”

Anatomy of a gotcha
A gotcha has to be some outrageous blasphemy, some unspeakable transgression, uttered, nonetheless, against one of those golden idol central tenets of the prevailing belief system. The heretic, now nakedly exposed by his own word, may perhaps ultimately recant, but he must remain condemned, anyway.
So it was with the celebrated female author of the Harry Potter novels.
Jay Kay was the funny hat-wearing singer and songwriter of acid jazz and funk band Jamiroquai
Meanwhile, feminist, boss-girl and former darling of the left, J K Rowling, drifts further rightward – culturally at least: J K Rowling: Labour has turned its back on women… Author says she would struggle to vote for Starmer and doesn’t trust his judgement (Times)
They do say a conservative is simply a liberal that hasn’t yet been mugged by reality – sometimes literally.
And then of course there’s Sir Keir & Cos tax plans to consider: Labour draws up wealth tax options… according to sources that have spoken to the Guardian… – so I think we can take this as being near gospel, so to speak: The proposals under consideration include increases in capital gains tax (CGT)… significant changes to inheritance tax (Guardian)
Rich foreigners turn away from UK… “Brexit happened and the Conservatives promised to make the UK like Singapore and instead they turned this place into Belarus” said a billionaire… (FT) – that’s a somewhat obscure reference for us poor parochial Brits to catch but I’m guessing there’s a good chance this chap who speaks anonymously via the pink paper likely hails from that same benighted former Soviet republic and knows a thing or two more than we do about the state of Belarus: …businessman who has lived in London for 15 years (FT) – and now suddenly there’s a looming socialist branded government over here that doesn’t even apologise for raising our taxes – sometimes a poor oligarch just can’t catch a break.
Still, in our globalised world there’s always pastures new: …is now moving his tax reasidency to Abu Dhabi. “Security is now a major issue and another contributing factor to the tax reasons for why people are wanting to leave” (FT) – not trusting New Labour New Blair Starmer to tackle crime and the causes of crime, I sense.
So the foreign entrepreneurs we invited in will now bugger off so as to pay their taxes elsewhere – leaving us with the all the squeegee merchants, Uber drivers and vape shop proprietors that came in with them and tend to enjoy the free schooling, free healthcare, free childcare, rent subsidies, tax credits, income support, etc etc – but we digress.
On 4 May 1982 The Sun newspaper reported British naval attacks on two Argentine vessels with the memorable GOTCHA! headline
gotcha: informal, exclamation
I have got you (used to express satisfaction at having captured or defeated someone or uncovered their faults).
noun
1. North American
An instance of catching someone out or exposing them to ridicule.
Farage criticised for saying West provoked Ukraine war. The Reform UK leader told the BBC that “of course” the war was President Vladimir Putin’s fault. But he added that the expansion of the EU and Nato gave him a “reason” to tell the Russian people “they’re coming for us again” (BBC)
Our BBC, despite the opening shouty gotcha headline, is rather measured in reporting the context of the Farage statement. Afterall they are in general election extra careful mode. The desperate Tories and virtue-signalling Labourites, however, act like mean prim bitchy schoolgirls chanting in the playground “Ummm, you said a bad word, I’m tellin’ on you!”
Conservative Home Secretary James Cleverly said Mr Farage was echoing Mr Putin’s “vile justification” for the war and Labour branded him “unfit” for any political office. (BBC)
I refer readers back to where we came in – the anatomy of the gotcha. The unspeakable transgression, uttered, against one of those golden idol central tenets of the prevailing belief system.
Putin and Russia are synonyms for evil – this you must acknowledge as though a catechism: used to instruct the young, to win converts, and to testify to the faith) (Thank you Britannica)
See how the term Russian is deployed today by the Guardian in their headline story almost as though it were an expletive like bastard, sodding or fucking…
300m NHS patient records stolen by Russian hackers (Guardian) – disgust extra emphasised when placed adjacent and in contsrast to the purity sanctity and holiness of our sainted NHS
On a lighter note the Gruan presents us with Glastonbury the cartoon – we like to look at cartoons
We can tell from the frontpage teaser what’s in with the Guardianistas music-wise and what they are signalling as decidedly out.
Set you want to see – in other words what the Gruan is promoting – that’s a rather dark-skinned young lady, drawn evidently dressed in her bra and pants, one fist raised and the other clutching the mic, presumably intoning some crowd-pleasing anthem – and if the lyric themes of the likes of our top songstresses Taylor Swift or Adele are anything to go by, slagging off her former boyfriends.
Set your friends want to see – in other words what the Gruan considers as naff – that’s a pale-skinned intense-looking young chap, oblivious of his surroundings, headphoned-up while creatively noodling and nurdling on his keyboard or record deck
I’m afraid rock music, just like sport for the Guardian, is only of interest when it becomes a dumbed-down matter of providing a vehicle for left-leaning ideological content and context.
The formerly serious Times is little better: The woman on Putin’s most wanted list – she good, him bad.
As for the mildly conservative Telegraph: ‘Normal’ boy, 15, jailed for life over stabbing… from a “loving family” who stabbed a fellow pupil… – well, not all that ‘normal’ then, eh?
Although naming the victim what the frontpage Telegraph column fails to spell out – although perhaps they do eventually get around to it on: Page 13 – well beyond my present remit is: Bardia Shojaeifard: Boy, 15, jailed for murder of Alfie Lewis in knife attack outside school in Leeds. West Yorkshire Police says Bardia Shojaeifard targeted Alfie Lewis “in a premeditated and planned attack using murderous violence”… Mr Justice Cotter removed reporting restrictions that prevented him from being identified on Friday… with a minimum of 13 years behind bars (Sky News)
Whereas: New anguish for Lawrences… Stephen’s killer’s freedom bid… applies for parole after serving just 14 years (protests the Mirror)

I think Farage made a mistake discussing putin – and knew it as he was saying it . There problem is that opponents have to be branded as âevilâ in order to carry out hostilities against them âŠ
The 2 easy examples are hitler and Stalin – the UK did deals with both of these but then decided they were monsters – which they were –
We are in the same position with putin – Farage âadmires â putin because putin got to the top and stayed there – not what he actually does .
I remember – being much younger – just accepting the USSR as evil – but then I got lectured on the Russian viewpoint – surrounded by enemies who want to destroy it – hence the need for buffer states ⊠in the same way that the UK is a buffer state for the US ⊠– a floating early warning system for missiles from the east âŠ

TOADY Watch #1 – the BBC are terrified of Reform and Nigel Farage and those who do not hold the Hard Left wing views of the BBC
Nick Robinson somewhere in East Anglia, emitting CO2 in unnecessary travel out of BBC entitlement, tries and fails at twisting Nigel Farage’s words from an ‘interview’ Nick did with Nigel Farage recently (last night?). What Nick Robinson is ignorant of, apart from the BBC’s obsession with Global Warming and Climate Change, is that the proceedings of the EU ‘Parliament’ are filmed and what Nigel Farage said about the EU expanding ever eastwards is on video record. Did TOADY play a clip of NATO Secretary General, George Robertson, also saying – effectively – the same as Nigel Farage?
Nick Robinson appears to be also ignorant of the fact that Baroness Cathy Ashton, the well-known oil painting, as an EU Commissioner went to Maidan Square in Ukraine and elsewhere in Ukraine to try to tempt Ukraine into the EU fold. If I recall correctly that happened in 2014 just as Nigel Farage was standing up in the EU in Brussels making his warning.
Oooops! BBC 0 – 5 Nigel Farage. RESULT!

Looks like the BBC is going to spend the weekend on the Farage Putin comment . No thought it given to the expansion of NATO -or how it is seen from outside the NATO bloc .
I think there was an expectation in the mindset of Russians that when the Warsaw pact ended the nato pact would go to – but of course – it didnât – which in their mind is going to signal hostility âŠ
Donât get me wrong – Russia is never going to be a âfriend â and putin may have got the taste for taking back territory âŠ
As for comments by the swamp – Wallace -George Robertson – only to be expected – together with what will now be âdemands â for âapologies â when none are due
And when Reform do well theyâll say the Russians did it âŠ

NATO is a terrorist organization just like any other. It uses violence against civilians to further the political goals of the NWO. Serbia is a classic example. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Gladio
Remember all of those bombings of civilians in Western Europe during the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s? Many people were too young but I was old enough to remember the dreadful Bologna train station bombing in 1980. Bologna was an Operation Gladio operation carried out with the blessing of the senior leadership of NATO.
It has also been carrying out similar operations in Ukraine. It’s quite clear this war between Russia and Ukraine has been orchestrated by both sides as it serves the interests of the criminals in the East just as it does those in the West. The goal is the total enslavement of the world’s populations under a digital CBDC social credit score system and if anyone thinks Russia is coming to save us, think again. Both sides want you dead, maimed, or enslaved.

Well, it was always expected, but now the gloves are off and the dirty fighting begins. There’s a pact between the loathsome BBC and those pretend Pitbulls at the Daily Mail, over the Russia issue. They were going to find something…It was only a matter of time.
I find the Mail these days particularly pointless. It has a quite feeble comments page where it pleads to its readers to vote Conservative. It sounds desperate.
“Of course, we share the frustration of so many who voted Tory in 2019 and understand why they might want to punish the party.” They waffle on about letting Labour loose on our borders and giving us higher taxes”…that a vote for Reform is a vote for Labour. We’ve heard it all before.
We’ve had the highest tax hikes since 1948 and immigration that is so off the scale even the great Enoch wouldn’t believe it. Illegal immigration is actually now much higher than legal immigration was before 1997. The Tories have adopted every green issue going, refuse to even look at the BBC licence fee and they’ve messed up Brexit. Actually, they haven’t simply messed up; they’ve betrayed us.
We don’t have a Conservative Party in anything but name. These are socialists in the slow lane. They’re taking us to the same undesirable destination, but they’re cruising along in the middle lane, hoping no one will notice…
You can only use the old trick of, “Labour will be even worse” so many times.

The establishment media have been looking for a chink in Reform’s armour and now they think they’ve found it, I don’t think we will the last of it until the election is over. Hopefully Farage will survive this, but he needs to think carefully as the msm are willing to twist every little thing he says. The DT is using the same tactics too.
I think they have been waiting for Nige to say something really stupid but this campaign he has been very careful, so they will continue to portray him as someone working for Russia and not attempt to explain what he actually said. The “Farage is literally Hitler” tactic didn’t work so now it will be “Farage is literally Putin”. It’s not quite as good, but it will work to some extent and with only a couple of weeks to go it will be a case of ‘any smear will do’.

I have no problem with Nigel Farage saying a few truths which the MSM avoid. The Beeboids probably don’t inderstand his tactics but if one watches the way he takes the flak, listens, waits until the shrieks and wails have died down, he then easily manages to move on to the next facts, again, avoided by the MSM, and takes the stage yet again!
Any publicity, good or bad, works well!
He’s far, far cleverer than the bog standard prospective MP, of any hue! The crap I’ve had from the political parties in Tunbridge Wells is derisory, with a foreign face on the ‘conservatives’ sort of leaflet, bringing in a nobody from nowhere for some reason, means that the Limp Demons will surely get in, but at least they shelved the tories’ utter waste of time and money on the ‘people’s palace’ they wanted in an unpoilt park, so they have some gardening experience!
I haven’t seen a leaflet for Reform, but will vote for them anyway!

….
If Russia joins NATO we can end the war!
….
Just for once, let us try this argument with an open mind, employing arithmetic and geography and going easy on the adjectives. Two great land powers face each other. One of these powers, Russia, has given up control over 700,000 square miles of valuable territory. The other, the European Union, has gained control over 400,000 of those square miles. Which of these powers is expanding? There remain 300,000 neutral square miles between the two, mostly in Ukraine. From Moscowâs point of view, this is already a grievous, irretrievable loss. As Zbigniew Brzezinski, one of the canniest of the old Cold Warriors, wrote back in 1997, âUkraine⊠is a geopolitical pivot because its very existence as an independent country helps to transform Russia. Without Ukraine, Russia ceases to be a Eurasian empire.â This diminished Russia feels the spread of the EU and its armed wing, Nato, like a blow on an unhealed bruise. In February 2007, for instance, Vladimir Putin asked sulkily, âAgainst whom is this expansion intended?â I have never heard a clear answer to that question.

I think Putin’s strategy has always been to Lord over the old USSR states despite their new-found democratic principles. For this, ‘His’ property needs a distinct border between ‘His’ states and the evil west. He pops in to those states from time to time to remind them who is ‘Boss’. Georgia et al. any one? Problem for Putin as the ‘representative’ of Russia i.e. the thug / bully of the East, that game has run its course. Hitherto, no western entity has really stepped up to the plate to teach him a lesson and control his ‘control’ inclinations.
Until now.
It had to happen. Putin overreached. Overstepped the mark and he’s now paying the penalty for it and that will be for decades ahead.

Hi, I’m Bob Boeing, founder of Boeing.
You know, flying can be
a stressful experience
for people of all ages.
Here at Boeing
we know, you feel safest
when you’re flying on a plane
made by a company
that, above all else, prioritizes
diversity.
Sorry, Steve.
Welcome aboard,
Black Woman Steve.
I don’t have to use this right?
You do know I’m just an actor?
Classic Black Woman, Steve.
As you’re flying through the air
at 30,000ft in a pressurized metal
tube being propelled
by highly explosive jet fuel,
you can rest easy
knowing that you’re in a Boeing.
And at Boeing,
we have stringent standards
making sure to hire our airplane
technicians based on the single
most important factor.
What they like to do in the bedroom.
Now we institute regular
surprise certification checks
to make sure everyone is qualified.
Show of hands. Who’s gay?
I am, I am.
I’m a methodist.
Close enough.
We know when you board an airplane.
Your first question is, who’s the pilot?
Well, there’s no need to worry
your pretty little head about that
when you’re on a Boeing.
Our new oppression detection
technology scans the pilots
to make sure they’re part
of a marginalized group, like women,
Pacific Islanders, or even the blind.
(Humming) Access granted.
Straight male detected.
Whoa!
Looks like this white man
is blasting off again.
So next time
a door falls off one of our planes,
you can take pride in knowing
it was slapped on there by a minority
or a gay.
Or maybe both.
And when your plane is coming in hot
and the landing gear fails to deploy.
Just remember, all
our technicians have had extensive
DEI training and most of them are LGBTQ.
Only a bigot would
have a problem with that.
You’re not a bigot, are you?
I didn’t think so.
So remember, if it’s not a Boeing,
I ain’t going.

The remarks include disparaging comments about the murdered MP Jo Cox, former Prime Minister Theresa May, and a black reality TV contestant.
The comments were posted between 2011 and 2023.
Reform UK and the candidates involved have all been approached for comment.
Earlier this week, the party said it planned to sue a company it hired to vet potential MPs.”

âYouâre happy to censor for the repressive authoritarian Chinese regime like for instance with Google.cn,â said Hawley (R-Missouri). âHappy to censor away any mention of Tiananmen Square, happy to help the Chinese government maintain control of all information within the country, happy to help them control the information flow to their own citizens. You’re happy to do all of that. Wouldn’t you call that censorship with an ideological agenda?â

pug, I was yelling at the radio over Starmer’s words re ‘Bet gate’ “What about Diane Abbott? Starmer didn’t just re-admit her to membership he let her stand for re-election. So much for his advice to Rishi to “boot them out of the Party”.
I have a suspicion that the Conservatives may not do as badly as polling is suggesting for 4 July.

It seems weird to me that the Black Broadcasting Corporation is not banging on about the Hindujah family and their prison sentences for slavery, better than 4 years for one of them. I then remembered that Gaylord Mandelson got them British passports in the last Labour administration. Makes sense now.
I’ve sent off my postal vote, go Reform.

Doctor Who episode 8 review: After all the hype and hoopla, this finale is a big let-down
https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/reviews/doctor-who-episode-8-review-recap-ncuti-gatwa-b2567017.html
Hard to believe when it has such amazing scenes as this. I kid you not, this is a promotional picture from the Radio Times. Probably the best bit in the whole episode.
What makes me laugh is how they desperately try to leech previous succesful series by rehashing anything they can and also give jobs to all their old friends who can’t get work any more. That’s Anita Dobson. On the Left in case you have been radicalised by the BBC and are now colourblind.
Can’t wait for the viewing figures. Will it be a new recordbreaker ?.
Never in the history of showbusiness has something so utterly rubbish continued to be so massively hyped. It started when they made the Doctor a woman. I saw busses and huge billboards promoting it and it still bombed. I bet the BBC keep that budget secret. Someone should ask them how much they spend pushing it.

TOADY Watch #2 – more misandry and paganism from the BBC
Suranne Jones (actress, brought up a Roman Catholic) has made a programme about witches. JustRemainIn Webb was the interviewer. “So witches were mostly women, then?” asked Justin. Suranne: “No, some were men.”
Previously Suranne had said James VI of Scotland (James 1, King of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales) was afraid of witches but as something of a theologian he investigated witches and their spells. James 1 of England is of course known for the Authorised King James version of the Bible, so as someone inclined to Christianity or as a devout believer, it is highly unlikely he would be afraid of witches.
Perhaps Suranne has a thing about King James 1 because the Gunpowder Plot occurred during his reign?

Israeli army strapped wounded Palestinian to jeep
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cjqq5n8911do
And even by the BBC’s standards, here we have and example of the most extreme of racist double standards.
Hamas attack the IDF from their bases in UN refugee centres, UN schools, UN hospitals and anywhere else. 100% using them as human shields because when they get killed, they can be photographed by racists working for Getty so the BBC can use them and added to their ‘death total’ which the BBC tell us in every article.
‘The individual was eventually transferred to the Red Crescent for treatment.’
There’s your key line BBC. He didn’t have his head cut off in cold blood. He was taken to hospital. And there’s no way the IDF would put a savage like that inside a jeep with them.
They even blurred out the terrorists face to protect him from something. No idea what.
An absolutely sickening story from the BBC trying to infer they were using him as a human shield while they hide the fact Hamas do it all the time. Shame on you, you racists.

The BBC thought that Reform UK was a little protest party , a Far Right fringe . Then Nigel stepped up , they overtook the Tories in the polls and then wallopâŠ.story after story , investigation after investigation into any tiny misdemeanour of any candidate.
They are rattled, you could see the anti Reform party rhetoric ramping up as soon as they finally realised that yet again , just like in 2016 and Brexit , the BBC are on the wrong side . They have now gone full on attack mode
Yet still , Reform Uk Facebook numbers surging , Nigel Farage Facebook numbers nearing 1.2 million followers and same with his new Tik Tok . Any posts get thousands of likes and the comments get hundreds.
Like he says , SOMETHING IS HAPPENING. Those of us who arenât blinkered with hate like the BBC can see it , this is 2016 part 2 . Yet the BBC , again , completely missing the mood of the nation, it really is quite a skill they have.

George Peppard, in the role of Colonel John “Hannibal” Smith, in the TV show The A-Team, liked to say “There’s a plan in everything, kid, and I love it when a plan comes together.”
And so it is this weekend that we read the headline: Reform candidates’ offensive remarks seen by BBC – what a busy little bee our Laura Kuenssberg, Presenter of Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, has been: …a wide range of offensive remarks online about women in the past, the BBC can reveal – which serving to further chum the waters lands quickly in the wake of: Farage defends Ukraine war remarks after backlash… In an earlier BBC Panorama interview (BBC) – a fine example of the ‘backlash in response to’ strand of keepy uppy journalism – ie keeping the story going for a bit longer.
Meanwhile the Guardian on Sunday which is the Observer tops the BBC press review line-up today (natch) and provides the gynaeceum which is BBC News staff the material for a not quite the anti-Labour jibe what you thought it was at first glance headline to introduce their online beauty parade of the nation’s frontpages…
‘Infected with Putin virus’ and Starmer growth plan ‘doomed’ (BBC)
In long form that apparent Sir Keir diss headline turns out to be a petition, nay a plea, on behalf of our temporarily hibernating deeply ingrained Remainerdom, to the man who – under a slightly different brief (Comrade Jeremy Corbyn v The Crown, Britain, Regina and all who sail in Her) – fronted up Labour’s second Brexit referendum policy. One oughtn’t to call him Sir Flip-Flop – ace lawyer that he is he’s more of your Taxi For Hire (TM coined by former Labour minister Stephen Byers who described himself as being like a âcab for hireâ in the 2010 lobbying scandal)
Starmer’s growth plan ‘doomed’ without access to EU markets… Rejoin the customs union – top economists… 56% of voters say Brexit bad for economy (Observer) – top econimists, yet? Not just yer run of the mill economists – what a clever construction – assuming we’re not all suddenly bathing in a jacuzzi of wealth – like cartoon character Scrooge McDuck – five minutes after Starmer enters number 10 Downing Street to the tune of D:Ream’s Things Can Only Get Better stuck on repeat on Steve Bray’s beatbox – as the clouds part and the sun shines down on the warmest, hottest, most glorious post-election morning eva since records began (TM the Met Office) then we’ve got the excuses in early – it’s jus’ cos we’re not in the EU
There’s some more revealing going on – revealing… that tends to be when journos want to tell you half the story
Constipation nation we ain’t
20,000: the major sewage leaks total in past decade… the Observer can reveal – gosh, I wonder why that might be? Could it have anything to do with the ‘sheer weight of traffic’ as they tend to say in explanation of the congestion on our roads? There are those who claim, despite the census, there may be anything up to 90 million people availing themselves of our Great British toilet facilities, courtesy the one goverment department that’s been pulling it’s weight productivity-wise these days – the passport and visa issuing office.

I cannot bear to listen to it myself but I’m told that yesterday a most amusing event occurred on the BBC s flagship “Any answers”, the phone in follow up to that very tired, boring, stale “Any Questions” ( It lost its audience when it lost its impartiality).
The event was ..wait for it ….a lack of callers, even the noisy cranks that usually enjoy a moment in the spotlight have given up with this BBC nonsense.
How embarassing…I suspect those in the know within the worlds favourite broadcaster put it down to just bad luck and/or a stupid audience.

What the msm doesnt get is that maybe 99% of the population has other things to do when it comes to politics .
They see a brand – uniparty or reform and plonk for one or the other.
