During the footy half time I thought I’d look at the PM QT …but it seems there’s someone missing …. Nigel Farage …. All the excuses for not having him compete against the uni party are there .
But UK a democracy – no – that’s a lie – it’s a fix
Vote Reform …
I guess that the more the Beeboids try to ignore Nigel Farage, the more the voters will check out the better alternatives to the bullshit spewed by most of the normally astute, but actually stupid, MSM, and the BBC especially.
It’s not rocket science to understand that all the leftie bunch that the Uk is infested with, is shitting its collective pants about yet another ‘populist’ revolt, just as they panicked about Brexit!
Bring it on – and VOTE REFORM!
Tomorrow the junior mafia doctors go on strike again . I heard today that during an election the government won’t negotiate with unions – because the vote is coming .
The mafia union know this – so why are they striking – other than desiring to make patients suffer or die ?
I’ve decided not to be ill tonight, Fed!
After a bottle of red, nobody feels unwell, and the leisurely walk around the garden for half an hour, glass in hand, has revived my spirits more than somewhat!
I wish you a quiet and peaceful evening and night, and we can chat again tomorrow, that’s if I can get little/big dog to stop barking at every bloody mousefart we get aroud this time of year…
Rest easy Scroblene …
A blessing in disguise.

“But when doctors strike, the scientific research shows that patients stop dying.”

An email from Saint Nigel this evening inviting me to ‘the largest rally of my political career’ at the NEC Birmingham.
A limited choice of trains, so I thought I might drive there.
Booking parking in advance requires a choice of event, but the listing for June consists of: a finance expo, Netball Super League and a Care Managers Show – no Nige!
Perhaps the NEC want to play it down.
Surfing across the tv channels I alighted on Dave TV and an oldish Have I Got News for You.
There was a story about a rusty old pole in Exmouth ( don’t ask)
A contestant then joked in terms ‘Nigel Farage would be glad to remove a pole’. A pretty obvious line. But……
Uproarious laughter and applause from the audience.
Impartiality, BBC style.
E45 ads gone full on transitioning friendly, time to think about whether it’s for us blokes then…
You picks your audience and you takes your choice!
Crash and burn E45.

Cabinet minister admits three election bets
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/czkk0d19kgdo
ANOTHER BBC headline about the dirty Tories making bets. This one actually ‘admits’ it – so he must have done something wrong.
What corrupt scum they really are. I think I will vote Labour instead.
Perhaps I will bother to check the article – though I imagine most won’t. Oh dear – look what I find:
‘Scottish Secretary Alister Jack told the BBC that in April he placed a successful bet that the election date would fall between July and September – after losing two similar bets in March.’
Well, that doesn’t sound like he knew the date. It continues:
Mr Jack said in a statement: “I had no knowledge of the date of the election until the day it was called.
“I placed no bets in May and am not under investigation by the Gambling Commission.”
So he’s completely innocent then.
‘A spokesperson for the Gambling Commission said: “We are not confirming or denying the identity of any individuals involved in this investigation.”’
So you’re telling me he might be lying are you BBC ?.
‘His controversial decision in 2021 to block the Scottish government’s gender self-ID reforms was seen as a significant moment in the demise of Nicola Sturgeon’s period as Scotland’s First Minister.’
What on Earth has that got to do with it BBC ?.
‘In February 2024, he expressed “regret” after deleting all of his
WhatsApp messages from during the pandemic.’
Or that ?. These are blatant attempts to slur his character to try and make us not believe him!.
I am simply stunned at just how far the BBC are going to assasinate the Tories (and the dozens of small left-wing newssites who repeat it all) before this election. I though ‘Partygate’ was just ridiculous politicially motivated presecution but having got away with that, they are now off the scale.
Of course it’s all down to OFCOM. This situation where OFCOM won’t address any complaints about the BBC until they have been through the BBC complaints procedure first is simply not fit for purpose any more. It’s from a time when the BBC had some integrity and was not staffed by activists.
But the worst part by far is how non of the politicians are saying anything about it. Those who did got removed by the BBC.
It’s all now beyond outrageous. Can anybody stop these fascists now ?. Once Labour get in, it is going to get much worse.
Here in the Tunbridge Wells constituency, the Lib Dems are on a roll, as the incumbent MP, Greg Clark, is stepping down.
The Tories have almost given up, especially as their ‘new’ hopeful’ isn’t from around here, and nobody has ever heard of him! The leaflets are vague and uninspiring! Iain Dale might have been nominated, and if he was standing, I might even have voted for him, as he’s an OK sort of chap, who’s been through the processes before now, but a national rag dug up a comment he made years ago, about ‘not liking the place’, so that sunk his ambitions at a stroke!
Well, I don’t like the place either, but I don’t live in the town, and haven’t been there for several years, and even the last time I went with Senora O’Blene, we got food poisoning…
So the upshot is, the new name on the block, the Reform candidate, who is getting zilch publicity, will be getting my vote, as the Tories will certainly lose, so now is the time to start to set the cat among the pigeons, as Nigel Farage suggests!
So Beeboids, whatever and whoever you ignore, you do so at your peril, because more and more British citizens aren’t taking much notice of your biased left-wing opinions. Your ‘presenters’ are boorish and discourteous, and as more of your funding is slipping away each day, you’ll come seriously unstuck when working politicians like Nigel Farage sharpen their knives!
Just wondering if anyone has ‘dug up’ anything on Labour or the Lib Dems. Is anyone even bothering to look or do we think there are more important things than what somebody said 20 years ago before they gained much more life experience ?.
All of this is a consequence of the huge rise in Left-Wing activists fuelled by social media. Digging something up will get them lots of credit in their group-think bubbles and they can all virtue-signal about how good they are compare to the Tories.
Totally oblivious the fact that everything they do is actually driven by hate of course.
Seriously folks…. no apology for the repeat.

BBC tracks down smuggler behind Channel crossing which killed Sara, 7
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx77l5ej2yyo
What about the family who put their child in danger?????? Or just blame the people smuggler
… or what about the fact we are doing nothing whatsoever to discourage these crossings. On the contrary : we are sending ships across to pick them up and bring them here.
If our Navy took every dinghy they could catch back to France and then destroyed the boat, the crossings would stop immediately. These people are not fleeing for their lives.
I have yet to see a reasonable, sensible answer as to why we don’t.
1 sniper 1 bullet 1 deflated dinghy on French beach 184 migrants saved from drowning.
“Dover MP Natalie Elphicke told the Commons that the BBC’s “shocking report” contained the “breath-taking” disclosure of free French public bus services being used to ferry migrants from camps to Dunkirk beaches.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-63229010“
The ‘reasonable, sensible answer’ is that we no longer have a navy, at least not one that has working ships?
How can BBC do this now?

They had been in Sweden for over a decade and Sweden had denied them asylum.
That’s right. Even cuddly, big state, open-door, touchy-freely Sweden had refused them the right to live there.
So the solution- try to get to England!!!!!
Tells you all you need to know about our Border Farce and utterly useless Home Office.
The BBC are patting themselves on the back this morning for having apparently found the people smuggler on whose boat a 7 year old girl died. We can take as read the BBC narrative of all asylum seekers and cross channel rubberised ferry passengers being poor, vulnerable children and families – rather than the draft dodging young male African Muslims we know most of them to be.
No, here’s the point. If the BBC can trace the smugglers ……then why can’t the police, security services, armed forces, etc etc etc across Europe??????
The answer has to be because they don’t want to?
Is it an extraordinary EU wide policy to ‘punish’ the UK for voting for Brexit? Is it because the countries are awash with woke Leftoids who are soft on smuggler criminals? Is it a fear of being branded waycist for targeting such people? Is it plain uselessness? Cock up or conspiracy?
We need to be told. But no-one is asking.

WHY NOT
“PM and Starmer clash over ‘what is a penis and who can own one’ in tetchy final TV debate”
Thinking about Scrobs above and his post about voting in Tunbridge Wells.
I can get dissatisfaction with the Tories. I can certainly get voting Reform. I can even get voters switching from Tory to Labour – trading the hope of a more competent government overseeing regulated capitalism against a manageable set of red meat socialist policies to keep the Far Left onside.
But when I look at the incoherent rambling ragbag of policies from the LibDems I can make no sense whatsoever of Tories voting LibDem. What are such Tories actually voting FOR as opposed to against? LibDems are not touchy-feely Tories. They undermined the coalition government for five years. They have sometimes tried to outdo Corbyn. They lost years ago the Liberal tradition of support for the individual rather than the collective.
I am completely mystified.
So am I really, Sluffers, as I used to think that hell would freeze over if the seat ever went to anyone but the Tories!
But some years ago, the Tory dominated council decided that they needed a ‘Peoples Palace’, with a theatre, lots of big offices chambers etc., and more. It was to be built on a favourite park in the town, which is very popular as a green haven for locals to enjoy an outside stroll or a picnic with the kids.
The cost was stated as £90,000,000, but easily expected to top £100,000,000 as all these civic (publically funded) developments do. The poll tax would be undoubtedly raised whether you wanted the place or not. The rationale on the cost/benefits of the place was banal and laughable!
Luckily, several independent anti-development groups formed, and with the help of the LibDems, the whole charade was chucked out and is now almost forgotten. The existing offices and theatre are now being done up as they should have been years ago!
So the Lib Dems are now in charge of the council, with a few independents still around – one of whom I certainly voted for. Local democracy does work in some cases!
But that’s as far as it goes with the Lib Dems. They certainly won’t get my vote, as nationally, they’re commercially naive, have no ideas on how to stop illegal immigration and are usually ineffective on real issues that affect the British Citizens, with their opposition to leaving the EU a prime example!
So John Gager of Reform, my vote is going to you in the post today – and the Senora’s will be as well!

BBC…IMPARTIAL AS EVER..I DON’T THINK
The news that an arrest had been made of a LABOUR PARTY member in the investigation of the Westminister ” honey trap blackmail” plot appeared on the BBC news page, very briefly last night and was gone this morning….how come, still a news item but not one that the BBC are comfortable with perhaps.
World class, impartial, ??
The Conservative betting scandal , is the story that won’t go away , because the BBC don’t want it to.
“Sir Keir Starmer has agreed with Sir Tony Blair that a woman has a vagina and a man has a penis. It marks a hardening of the Labour leader’s stance on biological sex, having previously said that “99.9% of women” do not have a penis.19 Jun 2024”

BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – maybe the BBC are suffering GE Derangement?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cl77y14r0j0o “How Sugababes paved the way for pop at Glastonbury” Er no, BBC and Mark Savage. You are displaying your amazing ignorance about the Glastonbury Festival. It started in 1970. It was always about ‘pop'(ular music.) Sugababes started in 1998 when according to your article, BBC, “they were barely at Secondary School.” The Sugababes have not paved the way for anything at Glastonbury, Glastonbury existed long before the Sugababes.
Have you been smoking ‘something’, Mark Savage, in order to get into the festival spirit?
BBC junk. Defund the BBC!

TOADY NON-Watch #1 – it has happened at last!
Nick Robinson could have had a scoop on his hands this morning. He interviewed Kevin Hollinrake MP, the Business Minister, but concentrated on ‘the-small-boats’. He should have asked Kevin about betting. The Daily Telegraph web-site informs me that Kevin Hollinrake is the only one of the betting Conservatives MPs or candidates who have placed a bet on the Conservatives to win the General Election.
At last!
I have a suspicion the Conservatives might be the largest Party in Westminster after the GE but maybe (I am hopeful) that they will be forced into a Coalition with the Reform Party. Will Rishi Sunak accept that? That is the big question. Faced with the inevitable resignation of a non-victorious Keir Starmer will Rishi accept a Coalition with Reform or fall on his own sword?
Rishi says he will celebrate 4th July in USA! with his family!
** taxes will not be paid
MM, has he actually said that? The public have a choice. Will it be 2010 all over again? Democracy inaction. The public have spoken.
Nope – but judging by the fact his wife has non dom for taxes and he wants more sunshine, but not India sunshine and his green card application – he’s just having fun at the moment.

Sorry America, we’re not leaving! Celebrities who had promised to leave for Canada and beyond decide to stay (so is it just a coincidence that Trump is planning tax cuts?)
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3927506/Celebrities-promised-leave-Canada-decide-stay-just-coincidence-Trump-planning-tax-cuts.html
Quite why so many celebrity would-be emigrants have declined to go is unclear, although financial circumstances may have provided a motivation
Rishi is also on record as stating that he will stop the boats. And other things as well.
FULLY COSTED.
“A 2019 review of the project, conducted by HS2’s chairman, Allan Cook, suggested that the final costs would be between £72.1 and £78.4bn (in 2015 prices) reflecting the “scale and complexity of the programme”, and admitting early estimates were “overly optimistic”.4”
https://www.instituteforgovernment.org.uk/explainer/hs2-costs
Optimism bias: the government was too optimistic about how cheaply and quickly it could build HS2. This was shown in HS2 Ltd. adding less than half the contingency that Crossrail kept during its early development stages.

Formby was obviously far more inteligent , popular, attractive and had a far greater grasp of politics than poor sad ed. Although I laugh out loud when I see ed on the television ,he isn’t as funny as George.

The party’s biggest get so far seems to be Tony Robinson arguably best known as Baldrick in Blackadder. He publicly backed Labour for years but tells us he withdrew his services in recent years because he disagreed with Jeremy Corbyn’s leadership of the party. Now he has returned as the voice-over in Labour’s recent party political broadcasts.

Rod Stewart left the UK and made his home in Los Angeles in 1975 to avoid the 83% tax on top earners that existed in Britain at the time. Toto Wolff was accused of being a tax exile by Red Bull Racing team principal Christian Horner. Wolff, who is originally from Austria, now resides in Monaco.

It looks like the strategy for the final week of election campaigning is to not mention Reform at all .
For instance – the world at one today spent the first 21 minutes on ‘immigration ‘ – without mentioning Reform at all – all cosy with the reds and blues and uncontrollable numbers arriving and staying …..
I really hope someone is doing a ‘reform ‘ count – how many times this rapidly growing party gets a mention ….

Missed an interview with Azeem Rafiq on R5 earlier; he has a new book out: “It’s Not Banter, It’s Racism: What Cricket’s Dirty Secret Reveals about Our Society”.
“… the never before-told truth behind the racism accusations that shocked a nation […] With heartbreaking honesty, Azeem reveals why he will always use his voice in a society that would prefer him to be voiceless.”
Voiceless? Inquiries leading to resignations, hearings at the DCMS, a book deal, interviews on the BBC. (There’s another dirty secret affecting society Rafiq knows of and partakes in, but we don’t talk about that.)
“I must rush out and buy the book from that self-serving race baiter”.

Reminds me when I worked in the NHS and introduced to my new boss – an Indian Psychiatric Consultant. Chatting away he said he was a film buff, so I started prattling on about Humphrey Gocart, Brad Pitt, Fred Astaire. Of course he looked at me in bewilderment, he only knew about Indian musicals ……duh !

I believe that Sir Keir Starmer KC, the former DPP, said last night that Sunak had been “convicted” and “paid his fine”.
Such a distinguished lawyer might have been expected to know that Sunak paid a Fixed Penalty Notice, not a fine, which can only be imposed by a court. Payment of an FPN is not a conviction and does not lead to a criminal record. That is why few people go to court and risk a conviction, when paying a £50 FPN makes it all go away.
Sir Keir seems strangely ignorant of the law. Perhaps that is why Sir Jimmy Savile got away with it when Sir Keir was DPP. Or perhaps Sirs stick together.
Starmer’s legal trophy cabinet is mostly full of stale air?
Next he’ll be telling us that he’s forgotten he was (was? is?) some form of Trotskyist. Certainly the BBC will ‘forget’ to tell us that, although if they find a Reform or Conservative candidate who as much as read a National Front leaflet 40 years ago then they’ll be all over that.

Climate Tax
Sustainable Aviation Fuel is a farce and a scam
As well as the ‘Shy’ vote that Reform will be getting but is not featuring in the polls there’s another factor where Reform will increase their votes.
I believe that Reform voters are very much motivated to go out and vote on the 4th (whatever the weather is like)
Labour voters may think as it’s already won I’m not too bothered about going to vote.
The other Labour voters, the Blue part, may be thinking it’s lost anyway so why bother.
Reform voters would probably crawl over broken glass to get their vote in and that must be worth several percentage points.
To add up these votes with the shy votes and then together with the (in my opinion) probable underscoring by the polls so far, we can add on a big percentage to the Reform votes whilst the Labour (red and white) percentages would probably be lower.
I think the difference would raise the (around) 16-19% Reform vote to the mid twenties.
EG
I reckon a lot of Reform postal votes are already on their way in …
