    All becomes clear. The mysterious lack of action by Government regarding illegal immigration, Asian rape gangs, large scale immigration, pro Palestine demonstrations, employment discrimination against whites, woke and LGBT+ nonsense. climate change nonsense. It’s all to create a divided society which can be controlled by Government and their agencies. Smarmer set in motion yesterday, the machinery of oppression, the direction of travel is clear.

      I feel very uncomfortable about these riots, they are producing every justification for the government to clamp down on anything even the merest smidge Right of centre. I watched a bit of film at Southport where someone seemed to trigger the trouble. It obviously wasn’t the EDL because apparently they haven’t existed for years. But could it be fifth columnists? At best just for Starmer to appear ‘strong’ at worst giving more reason for Labour to ban free speech.

        The all-time classic is when the Left say they are protecting democracy by stopping someone they don’t agree with being able to run in the election.

        No doubt the assasination attempt was to ‘protect democracy’ as well.

        How dumb do you have to be to believe that ?.

        As I mentionend the other day Deborah, I’m wondering if what’s going on here is an attempt to draw out people on the Right so they can be marked and dealt with later.

        They are playing with fire – but I suspect they think they can buy themselves a few years by taking out some of the ringleaders now.

      Flotsam, normally if there is a perceived threat to the UK, in this case from a summer of riots, the COBRA process is invoked. On this occasion it was a cosy chat in the cabinet room. The former is a process the latter is Surkeer informing police chiefs of his interpretation of the law in posh surroundings. It is good to know that despite the prisons being overcrowded the CPS/Courts will find extra resources to prosecute the rioters. I would point out that the CPS have missed a few in their time, not least Surjimmi.

    Amazing scenes on BBC news tonight.

    Following stories about a shortage of blood for transfusions, the BBC rightly featured a positive response by the Great British public.
    A large hospital facility was featured with rows of reclining chairs each with a blood donor. Excellent.

    But why amazing?
    Because there was not a single BAME person in all the coverage !!!!!

    How often does that happen on the BBC? Coverage of anything is usually awash with them.

    Of course what is shows is that the BAME ‘community’ is perhaps not quite as ‘community’ focussed as the BBC like to portray. And guess what? There was no comment about it at all. When the BBC agenda is not supported by events…….silence.

      This comment I saw on the DT sums it up perfectly:

      ‘They are still not listening. They still don’t get it. It’s not far right extremists who are taking to the streets to protest, it is ordinary British citizens who are fed up with poor government, poor policing and mass immigration. Fed up with two tier policing, and the general woke and anti white sentiments. How has our Britain, which our fathers and grandfathers fought and died to defend, been allowed to disappear and be patriated by third world immigrants. It is not right wing extremism, it is the sentiment of at least 50% of the British population.
      Why did they not crack down harder and quickly on the Palestinian protestors or Stop Oil protestors – who have been allowed to act in antagonistic, disruptive and non peaceful ways for months and months. Yet British people taking to the streets to complain are immediately arrested. Yes, it’s two tier policing. Yes, it’s discrimination again the indigenous British population.’

    “International concern over Middle East escalation after Hamas leader killing” | BBC News

    “Turkey and Pakistan announced a day of mourning on Friday in honour of Ismail Haniyeh, while Hamas has called for “roaring anger marches… from every mosque” to take place after Friday prayers to protest Haniyeh’s killing.”

    A day of mourning for BBC too I guess.

    A related side note- it’s a common practice in Islamic countries for Muslims to curse their enemies before leaving mosques. In Egypt, Christians try to avoid walking by mosques on Friday evenings because the Muslims often exit all wound up with rage from their cursing sessions.

    Just had this on in the background and it was very interesting.

    BREAKING NEWS: GOP Senators Eviscerate Secret Service, FBI Over Trump Assassination Attempt

    After grilling the Secret Service, the basic conclusion they are arriving at is that the whole assasination attempt was deliberately enabled by the politically appointed leaders of the Secret Service. They did it for Trump and they did it for Kennnedy (who has since been provided with protection). But of course they can’t say it directly. At least not yet.

    Of course they don’t go further to state the obvious – that these leaders must be following the policy directive of their peers. ie Obama.

    If this was in the BBC’s agenda crosshairs, they would make a huge story out of this. There are so many damning facts and the Secret Service are simply refusing to answer the most critical of questions because it would incriminate them directly for what they did.

    But it was against Trump. So they are absolutely silent. I am 100% certain that the BBC would be happy if the attempt had been successful. We would have had a few days mourning and fake outrage. Then it would be dropped completely.

    That’s the Left for you.

    The press is still being allowed to report street disorder . The red government is presumably preparing more legislation to control the internet as it blames ‘social media ‘ as usual and is now talking about proscribing an organisation which no longer – apparently – exists .
    No doubt it will use legislation aimed at countering terrorism- against protesters – but only non approved protesters …. Muslim Hamas supporters and stop oil vermin can carry on .

    Two or maybe three tier policing is here . Fortunately the alien state is in a tricky position because it has a limited supply of plod , prisons and finally the army .
    Although for a red government to rely on these instruments of oppression make it look pretty bad so early into its stay in government .

    The consequences of allowing mass invasion on ordinary people is at last being seen . And I’d day the state has seen nothing yet .
    Somewhere from long ago there is a report in the home office saying that unless the invasion is stopped there will be civil disorder . I bet that document is being shredded …

    Long hot summer

    He reports that ‘police and Muslim youths ‘defended a mosque in Sunderland – so my quip about plod being the ‘religious police ‘ really is try ….

    The BBC really is full ‘state broadcaster ‘ mode – meesh on today even said the plod used water cannon – is this a first on the UK mainland .

    You can hear how excited meesh is – she has the hots for banning the ‘edl’ – after all – they don’t want England defended now do they ? They’ve imported millions without the consent of the people and are starting to feel the effect.

    Multicultural doesn’t work – the invaders are a direct threat – for instance Rwandans who kill kids

    It’s lucky that we live in a free country and people have a right to protest isn’t it ? Or maybe it’s only a free country for some .

    BTW – it’s sort of heart warming that all that lefty propaganda about how we are ‘all in it together ‘ turns out not to have worked ….

    Further – I bet the BBC will be turning of the Reform party – which do doubt they will want banned . I hope reform has gone on holiday …normally be now some one wouid be demanding parliament be recalled … but for some reason it hasn’t happened … maybe it’s because it’s only 2 days into their expenses paid holidays ….

    What do you picture when you hear the word “chief constable”? I picture a large man in uniform, a natural leader of men , whose very presence screams ‘authority’ and ‘respect’. What we now seem to have now, when they appear on the tv, are women who are more akin to the slightly unpleasant older woman who won’t give you a refund in the supermarket for the chicken that smells rotten when you got it home.

    Meanwhile the decision has obviously been made by the authorities to stoke up trouble. Headlines in the DM that cells have been cleared and solicitors booked. Did they do that for the pro-Hamas demonstrations? Don’t they know it is the two tier policing fuelling the fires? Do they only believe in free speech if it agrees with the Left’s agenda?

      Deborah,

      Good morning to other Surkeers, Far Right’s.

      Yes, 0700 R4 news – Its (Sunderland) become another “Yaxley-Lennon” Far Right event. Needless to say, Mark Easton their reporter describes the participants as “Far Right”. Mere name calling because that’s all they’ve got. A fact of life, as has been pointed out over the years, “There’s more of us than there is of them”. The Pixie says the “Rioters” will face the full force of the law. The Government is engaging more, “Prosecutors” to process the arrested. And when the police are exhausted an there are no more reserves, what then? Do the ‘Prosecutors’ step out to face the people. I’ll bet not.

      I recall it reported that British machine gunners in the Korean War had to flee their positions because they did not have enough spare barrels for the Bren (which had a habit of melting if over used). Rats in a barrel shooting North Koreans. And still the waves kept coming. Sacrificial determined numbers will not be defeated. Remember the Polish Lec Voenca anyone? The Pixie has (as they all do) forgets history.

      I reckon a number of things will happen quickly now. Rioting will take place anytime over a 24Hr period. Plod will not cope with that move. The riots will increase and when Plod disappears off the streets the muslims will produce the weapons they have no doubt been accumulating over the years. Then?………….
      Yup folks, it is as dire as that.

      So much for UN “International Treaties” which the public do not support.

    Huw Edwards

    From the Daily Mail – ‘poor huw’

    A former BBC chairwoman had thanked shamed star Huw Edwards for his service while knowing he had been arrested.

    Dame Elan Closs Stephens referred to the broadcaster’s former star anchor as ‘poor Huw’ on the Welsh radio programme Beti a’i Phobol.

    She admitted that she knew of Edwards’ arrest in her capacity as interim chair of the Corporation but denied being aware of new ‘terrible details’ after the journalist pleaded guilty to making indecent images of children.

    Dame Elan thanked Edwards ‘personally’ on the radio programme on July 2 for his ‘huge contribution’ and the ‘skills he has demonstrated’ that she said would help ‘others succeed’.

    At the time she added that the saga involving the former News At Ten presenter was ‘a sad story’ and suggested that the Sun ‘had wanted to make the most of the occasion’ in exposing a scandal involving such a high profile star and public figure.

    She said: ‘It was obvious that the Sun newspaper was going to make the most of the occasion because poor Huw was so well-known.’

    Insisting that the new revelations had come as a shock to her, Dame Elan said she was ‘horrified by it all’, but refused to be drawn into whether she stood by her previous comments in a statement to Newyddion S4C, the BBC reported.

    BBC director general Tim Davie said on Thursday that he was aware Edwards had been detained and of the nature of the charges against the presenter last November, but insisted he didn’t know the specifics of the case.

    He added that police had requested that information about the case was kept confidential amid the ongoing investigation.

    The findings of an internal investigation within the BBC into Edwards’ conduct have yet to be disclosed.

    Edwards, who was revealed this week to have been charged in June, admitted to keeping 41 indecent and illegal images of children on his phone, of which seven were the most serious category.

    Despite being taken off air in June 2023, the former BBC veteran continued to be paid his £439,000-a-year salary in the months that followed.

    This week, Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy called on Edwards to return the £200,000 he is thought to have received since bosses found out about the allegations against him.

    One of the nation’s most recognisable television figures, Edwards was face of many high profile national events including election coverage, the King’s Coronation last year and most notably announced the death of Queen Elizabeth II in September 2022.

    Married with five children, Edwards allegedly liked to swap messages with younger men and has been accused of ‘hiding in plain sight’ at the corporation.

    MailOnline has contacted BBC for comment. END

    some are asking that the sex offender gives his final salary back to the tax payer . But it’s probably been spent on ‘Young friends ‘- right Huw …. ? You can trust the bbc …

    The recent Spiked podcast when Brendan O’Neil interviews Toby Young of the Free Speech Union is a brilliant summary of where we are as a country and why we got in this mess. I urge you to watch it.
    More riots , more claims by the authorities that they are the work of the mythical far right , more threats from the authorities to punish participants harshly. Soon the authorities will start to punish those not involved but who seem to them likely to have been sympathetic to the reason why there are protests.
    This government is the most repressive ever as they try to force their multiculty policy down our throats. The ruling elite have known for years that they are sitting on a volcano of their own creation. They know that sooner or later the indigenous population will start to take direct action to oppose mass migration. They fear that we are close to that eruption, hence the heavy handed repression.
    But why are still stoking the fire by continuing mass migration at record levels? They must be confident that they can handle the situation. Perhaps they really do believe their own propaganda , that mass immigration is of great benefit and integration is going well with just a few minor blemishes. Or perhaps they have a whole raft of repressive measures ready . I bet conditions in their re education camps aren’t as good as those for the illegal migrants?

    It’s a bit like the fuel protests of 2000 .

    Tony Blair thought there was a right wing plot about it .

    It’s funny how Labour antagonise the working class then think they are led by the right .

    Perhaps if Labour would go back to its roots and stood up for the workers instead of listening to university lecturers and the like it would be a more honest party and be the ordinary people’s choice .

      Labour gave up on the working class in 1968, when the dockers marched for Enoch Powell. They decided to import a new set of voters from the third world. The project has been a huge success. For them.

    Meet the new boss, same as the old boss… only worse edition

    The formerly Rishi lackey loyalist Daily Express this morning tugs a forelock for the new master, Two-Tier Sir Keir

    Britain cannot let rioting thugs win (Express)

    What would constitute a win in present circumstances we wonder… some form of curb on mass immigration? We can’t be having that.

    The gynaeceum that is BBC news staff liked the Express for their top pick of all today’s national headlines in their online press line-up.

    The phraseology employed there to describe frustrated lower class English people presently taking to the streets has a certain appropriate metropolitan globalist elite ring to it, don’t you think: ‘Rioting thugs’ and affordable homes ‘stand empty’ – echoes the BBC’s header for their national press headlines round-up.

    While we’re bandying about all those quote marks – you can read more about supposedly ‘affordable homes’ later.

    Meanwhile, in further surprising alinement between BBC instincts, outlook and thinking and those at the Express, that title gushes: Glorious Gold Rush… Team GB in dreamland after THREE more Olympic victories

    Do you want to tell them or should I?

    Frankly, being nowadays only moderately interested in sport, and with a vestige of lingering interest in GB-branded national achievement (despite Gareth Southgate) one couldn’t in all honesty really give a monkey’s flying hoot over: Bryony Page won gold in trampolining yesterday, the first Olympic title for Team GB in the sport. She hopes to join Cirque du Soleil (Times)

    Good luck to her and all that. She makes a modestly attractive frontpage feature pic for the Times but it ain’t exactly Bobby Moore picking up the Jules Rimet Trophy or Roger Bannister breaking the four minute mile in grainy black and white.

    Olympic Gold Rush – enthuses the Guardian :Team GB win gold in team showjumping, trampolining and rowing

    Posh sports, anyone?

    Bus burning, cop car over-turning and brick throwing. Police 100-yard reverse dash, chief constable show-ponying, and rowing back on anonymity rules. Now we’d win a clutch of medals were those sports to be introduced into the modern Olympics.

    Riot police on standby as far right plans wave of protests across UK – frets the left-leaning i weekend – under the somewhat sinister deep state inspired heading: Policy

    Let’s just pause to consider for a moment, who’s better at planning stuff – a few skin-headed ‘far-right’ street ‘rioting thugs’ with bogies hanging out of their noses – or our ruling elite globalist regime?

    I know the Tories (remember them?) seemed somewhat incompetent and self-defeating in their actions – but perhaps that was simply part of the plan.

    Remember folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory, if it’s true.

    Gaius Julius Caesar didn’t want to believe in conspiracies – and just look what happened to him. Sometimes these segueways write themselves…

    Stabbing suspect was star for BBC Children in Need… A video unearthed by the Mail shows Axel Rudakubana, then aged 11 and dressed as Doctor Who, urging the nation to get involved with fundraising… in front of Tardis (Daily Mail)

    I say this is unfortunate coincidence. Given the vast number of black individuals desperately sought out to be portrayed in mainstream media and advertsing it was almsot inevitable the Southport murder suspect would have had some photo call somewhere along the line. I’m almost surprised there isn’t a pic of him on a DFS Sofa or getting a mortgage from the Halifax. Getty Images will no doubt be an absolute treasure trove of archive pictures of this individual.

    Badenoch: We need a better plan for integration (Telegraph) – I don’t know about Badenoch – I’d vote for Baden-Powell.

    Tell us about these ‘affordable homes’

    Thousands of ‘affordable’ homes stand empty despite housing crisis – prostests the left-leaning i weekend

    Nice incidence of the over-used journalistic ‘despite’ there. Mr AsI would contend that it’s getting about as old and trite as pics of Olympic medal winners biting their medals.

    New homes built under Britain’s ‘affordable housing’ rules remain empty because housing associations do not have the funds to buy them… (i weekend) – well, they ain’t bloody affordable then, are they?

    Entire developments are also delayed as potential buyers pull out due to budget squeeze… – the left-leaning i weekend would appear to dearly wish to buck the market. Meanwhile in the real world just naming a thing ‘affordable’ quite obviously doesn’t get it manufactured and sold for next to nothing.

    Jean-Luc Picard, of the revamped post-Kirk Star Ship Enterprise, may have enjoyed the catchphrase “Make it so” but I’m afraid leftist wishful thinking economics is a sci-fi fantasy. Expect to hear more such tosh as ‘affordable’ this and ‘affordable’ that from our keen on growth continuity-Hunt chancellor Rachel Reeves.

    US jobs alarm drives global sell-off… Japan, UK and Europe slide (FT); Global stock markets dive after US shock (Telegraph); Traders are betting the Federal Reserve will be forced to respond to a weakening economy with rapid rate cuts (FT)

    “Tora Tora Tora” was the Japanese code expression for the signal to begin the attack on Pearl Harbour.

    “Borrow borrow borrow” seems as though it will be the order for western governments, including ours.

    Dozens of children killed in Bangladesh protests – Unicef
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c16j6w1dxl1o

    Was reading this to see who hilled these people and immediately noticed how the BBC were telling me all about how many deaths there were but curiously vague about who killed them.

    It sparked enough interest to keep me reading and what do you know ? – look what I saw near the end:

    ‘On Thursday, it banned the country’s main Islamist party – Jamaat-e-Islami and its student wing, Islami Chhatra Shibir – which it claimed was behind some of the violence.’
    ‘”We have evidence that they have participated in the killings and in the destruction of government and private properties,” Anisul Huq, Bagladesh’s law minister, told the BBC.’

    Like a bad smell, the religion of peace turns up again and people die. And the BBC are very, very careful not to say who is supposed to have killed who. Which ALWAYS means they are protecting the Muslims using their lies by inference and lies by omission.

    First time poster here after lurking for a while.

    The BBC’s stance on the kerfuffles (if the BBC can use biased language so can I) in various towns and cities after the slaughter of little white girls, is a disgrace.

    The BBC couldn’t ‘verify’ my ringpiece.

    It seems anyone upset at these murders by another non white on white kids is ‘far right’

    It seems our police force put on full riot gear for ‘kerfuffling’ whites but get on their knees for non whites, or even cave in to their demands when they riot over children being taken into care.

    There is a two tier policing system in this country. And while I used to say that most coppers don’t go along with this and I’ll always support them… sorry. That is over for me now. If they had any dignity and fairness about them they would quit.

    I couldn’t look myself in the mirror after kneeling for ‘kerfuffling’ BLM blacks (and upper/middle class ‘communist’ white twits) and then start crushing concerned white skulls for less.

    Do I agree with the rioting? No, it’s counter productive for whites because we are now clearly second class citizens. It will make things worse for us.

    But I understand it. We are being constantly gaslit and abused. We are having our kids killed and what do our ‘leaders’ do?

    They put out some very strong statements about the protesters feeling ‘the full force of the law’ and talk about restricting what freedom is left (not much now). The opposite with BLM, muslims and Roma gypsies, of course. They need to always consult ‘community leaders’ and not wear riot gear. What a joke.

    After Southport? Not a word about protecting nurseries, schools or kids clubs from their murderous policies if you didn’t notice, just strong angry words from Starmer and his anti white attack dog, Cooper.

    They (and other MPs and our joke of a media) just don’t want to admit they were wrong flooding this country with those incompatible with us.

    Instead of rioting a better plan would be a mass strike by whites (and any non whites who support us).

    And I agree with those that say it’s about time whites had their own ‘community leaders’ too.

    And perhaps stop all immigration from countries (ethnic origins are important , sorry it’s bloody obvious to me now) with high murder/rape stats. Like most of the MENA region, for example.

    And it’s time to look at remigration too.

    I do think that the government don’t realise how wrong they are by doubling down on being anti white after this attack though.

    People really have had enough.

    Anyway rant over vegetable rights and peace etc.

    The Far Left BBC are going full-on anti ‘Far Right’. On Toady this morning it was absolutely blatant.
    I love the hypocrisy about the ‘full force of the law’ which was totally absent when Left wing causes were concerned, from pro Hamas demos to Just Stop Oil
    I also love the accusations of Far Right racism, conveniently forgetting the huge election votes, some successful, in favour of candidates supporting fellow Muslims in a territory thousands of miles away.

    The BBC name checked HopeNotHate as an ‘anti racist’ organisation- I would call them a pro mass immigration organisation myself.

    But once again the centre right are stupid. By stoking up violence (totally unacceptable if somewhat understandable) they just play straight into the hands of the Far Left. So much so that the idea mentioned above of fifth columnists at work is entirely plausible.

    ‘Still alive’ – graduate Asmaa’s texts to BBC from the ruins of Gaza
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c728vj21qepo

    Complete and utter 100% empathy non-news article by the BBC whose sole purpose is to push the narrative that everyone in Gaza is an innocent victim.

    This very lengthy article is not news in any way whatsoever and represents a new record for how low the BBC will stoop to shape the narrative.

    They are not the victims here ‘Paul Adams’ of the BBC. Israel is. Why aren’t you writing about what the hostages are going through ?. It will be a hundred times worse than ‘Asmaa’s’ experience.

    Of course Asmaa write her perfect English in exactly the right style to fit in with the overall sickly style Paul is using. What are the chances of that ?.

    Zero. Paul has written them himself based loosely on what she has told him. Paul is another shameless BBC liar.

    Here he is.

    I see BBC ‘Verify’ were noting how ‘the far right’ perpetuate myths about ‘elites’ covering up and being complicit in child abuse.

    Well, didn’t various high ranking officials cover up or refuse to act against grooming gangs for fear of being called a name? Not a myth at all then.

    And it’s a bit rich the BBC getting all preachy on this topic anyway.

    Huw know what I mean? Jingle Jangle.

    By the way, it seems (after reading their articles) that BBC Verify is a few spotty lefty students and ‘peaceful’ types.

        96,000 votes now. Rereading the article it refers to an “exclusive Telegraph reader poll” . It could be historic and unassociated with the specific poll in the article. I cannot recall the number who complete the Telegraph polls – not sure if 96,000 is normal. In my view it would be unethical to re-open an old poll.
