Ah the Bank Holiday Weekend – the end of Summer – when foreign cultures are celebrated by the BBC with uncritical enthusiasm . The annual crime festival called ‘carnival ‘( no “the “) takes centre stage showing how enriched the robberies , rapes and stabbings make Britain. And the boats keep coming …

And as Santa Claus and bigfoot said when receiving their awards:
“I’d like to thank everyone who believed in me”
Catch-up link to last page in the previous thread
F2 mentioned the current madness, it only takes a quick perusal of the current “meeja” stories….
“Wales’s hated 20mph speed limit forces cycle race to be shortened and rerouted because support vehicles will not be able to keep up with the riders without going too fast”
“The new sexuality in town: The rise of the ‘abrosexual’ identity taking social media by storm.The sexual preference involves being attracted to different genders, depending on how you feel at any given time.
In other words, you may be attracted to men for a period of time — sometimes as long as several years — before switching to women, and then back again. ”
“‘Rolex ripper’ who broke his own elbow trying to steal a £50,000 Patek Phillipe watch walks free from court because of prison overcrowding”
“Transgender woman wins groundbreaking ‘what is a woman’ case after she was kicked off a female-only app”
“UK prison crisis explodes with justice system ‘crumbling’ and on brink of all-out anarchy
Magistrates have been ordered to delay jailing criminals in a bid to ease the pressure behind bars, with only 1,149 cells across the entire estate available.”
“Liberal Democrats make bizarre demand to give Taylor Swift huge British honour, In an official press release, the third party of British politics called for the US superstar to be granted Freedom of the City of London.”
Z
Instead of the Freedom of London how about the Freedom of Rotherham.
Z, there was an error on TWatO yesterday: cyclists are meant to observe speed limits. (There is a doubt in my mind over whether there may be an exemption for cyclists in a road race). A lad I know was pulled over by the Police for exceeding the speed limit down a 1 in 10 hill in North London.
Oh, how this must have stuck in the craw of the BBC:
“RFK Jr suspends campaign to ‘throw support’ behind Trump”
It’s big news so they had to cover the story, but of course they couldn’t resist this snide sting in the tail: ‘Democrats shrugged off his announcement. “Donald Trump isn’t earning an endorsement that’s going to help build support, he’s inheriting the baggage of a failed fringe candidate. Good riddance,” Democratic National Committee senior adviser Mary Beth Cahill said in a statement.’
In fact, it will give Trump added credibility, as the Kennedy name still carries weight in the US.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cwy5ekxlwzgo
Tomo – thanks it’s worth listening to his 48 minute speech – even at x2 . I’ve got little time for the Kennedy mafia – even as a RC . … but he is an unusually ‘honest politician ‘… no wonder CNN cut away from him…
Funny that he doesn’t name Obama as the malice behind the whole thing ..
Who needs a policy when you have trump to hate ( referring to Harris failing to talk to the media )
Unusual for Kennedy to talk about the censorship of the U.S. media …brave … but he is a Kennedy with everything that goes with that.
I really hope that Donald trump gives him a big job should be win in November .
Nice reference to nut nut at 21 30 …
This was done – I think – without an auto cue – so rare …
His lines at the end about us childhood health – 77% of teenagers are unfit to serve in the military – he obviously cares about his country and people – and will make a great cabinet member for a Trump government – but they will fall out within a year …
He sounds too clever to be a politician ….
One hell of a speech …
Fed,
Yahoo News
“In a rambling, conspiracy-riddled, 47-minute monologue, Kennedy, running as an independent, said he would suspend his efforts in swing states where his presence could tip the election to the Democrats and said he had reached an ill-defined agreement with Trump to work to end chronic, food-related disease.”
That transalted from Commie Newspeak, means it was a very sensible talk.
“Yahoo” used to mean complete, undiluted effin eejit – no reason to change that I reckon.
“The Real Anthony Fauci” is one helluva book.
The audiobook was good
@Ed_Miliband makes hundreds of Scunthorpe steelworkers redundant
British Steel is preparing to shut its blast furnaces in Scunthorpe by Christmas, putting 2,500 jobs at risk

steel imported from China is counted as zero impact on UK CO2 totals
Funnily enough I was talking to the owner of a shipyard this morning and his opinion of Chinese steel was laced with expletives.
How tiny is UK steel production compared to China ?
@ Vlad….
Meanwhile back at the ranch, business as usual
Same new old new labour….pack the institutions with yesmen. It’s part of the reason the Tories did so badly…they were never ruthless enough to get rid of the lefties and pack in their own people….just look how they talked the talk on the BBC but never walked the walk.
If adults want to attend Pride festivals that’s their business
But when taxpayers have paid money to a council department to FOSTER children
are they happy that some of that money is then used to send staff to Pride festivals ?
I was going to say “A pox on their Pride festivals” but….
Child theft or sperm theft?

Remember the BBC that demonised and vilified anyone who didn’t want a vaccination or thought that perhaps we should ask a few more questions before pumping ourselves full of this new drug produced on speed-dial…all mad, bad and dangerous conspiracy theorists apparently.
Of course the truth comes out…..as the BBC reports now [but doesn’t detail its own part in playing down the possible dangers]….
”Our daughter should not have died from Covid jab”
‘The parents of a young woman who died after being given an AstraZeneca Covid jab have accused the NHS of failing to pass on known safety warnings about the vaccine.
Marina Waldron, 21, visited hospital with excruciating headaches three times in the week before her fatal collapse from a brain haemorrhage in March 2021.
Max and Liz Waldron said that despite her deteriorating condition, A&E doctors had seemed unaware of the emerging side-effects associated with the jab and warnings that had been issued.
Another family whose son, Oli Akram Hoque, died from the same complications a few days after Marina, are also calling for lessons to be learned. ‘
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2g921rd2lo
The BBC have never to my knowledge quoted anything from RFK’s book…
But of course they have quoted from books slagging Trump down many times.
They even wrote a ‘summary’ article about all the best bits:
‘I read all those Trump tell-alls. Here’s what I learned’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-53970246
Along with links to all their articles on the books individually of course.
There is no doubt about the BBC’s bias. None. Which means every time anyone tries to deny it, I immediately consider them to be shameless left-wing liars. Which includes everyone at OFCOM.
Thom Poole
– as an aside – being a Thomas, I’ve always thought anybody styling themselves “Thom” is a pretentious wanker.
“Weekend Breaking News Editor @cnn . Previously @bbc”
Of course ghastly little creeps like Poole won’t do the same for say Biden or Obama.
I see that Kamala Harris has gone the full Sarkozy and has a fair sized troupe of actual thespians traipsing around after her for choreographed appearances – challenging work – doctor one day, Amazon delivery driver or renewables engineer the next.
I don’t know if Harris is actually 4’6″ and that the thesps have been selected by height a la Sarkozy.
”Our daughter should not have died from Covid jab”
‘The parents of a young woman who died after being given an AstraZeneca Covid jab have accused the NHS of failing to pass on known safety warnings about the vaccine.”
Can they also Sue the Spring thing for spreading misinformation ?
Now that would make my day…to see that overpaid, vain, self important, dishonest little kidult in court.
She was at the forefront of spreading this (mis)information and performing hatchet jobs, repeatedly slandering and libelling those who raised objections or hesitations regarding the vaccine, as widely documented on here, Youtube and elsewhere, including accusing them on a national platform of promoting conspiracies and violence.
Live by the sword, Spring…
I stood on a roundabout every Wednesday for two years with a big yellow sign saying:
“Healthy children don’t need a Covid-19 vaccine”.
Where were you you bBC bastards? You were pushing ‘safe and effective’ lies.
Why is the BBC pre-empting the Grenfell Tower Inquiry which is due to report soon? The BBC is broadcasting its own interpretation of events before the Inquiry does…why? It’s a trick it often uses. It wants its own version to gain traction before the official one does…after all the official version may not come to the ‘right’ conclusions which you can be pretty sure the BBC’s one will…today’s episode telling us how the Tories were to blame for Grenfell…all that regulation and fire-safety control binned?…
‘Under the Conservative-Lib Dem coalition government, this was a time of deregulation and cutting red tape. Did these attitudes to health and safety prevent action being taken?’
It’s of course rubbish…it was mostly massive dishonesty by the various companies involved mixed with ignorance of the officials regulating and buying the products….note also the wilful blindness as they played a clip of Cameron telling us of the bonfire of regulations and then told us that…er…actually such cladding practises had been used since 2005….but Cameron & Co are still to blame….and of course this was in a wealthy Tory borough and so a bit of class war is going on…get the Tories. If it had been a Labour borough there wouldn’t have been half the fuss.

pug, I seem to recall that we were still in the EU before the end of June 2016 and were bound by EU regulations on building standards and fire safety.
On BBC Londonistan.
A valid feature about keyless entry cars being stolen to order from people’s homes. .
Organised crime does this, and the stolen cars end up in chop shops (which for the uninitiated is when a car is broken down into parts which are then typically put in a container and sold abroad) or else the whole car is shipped out of the country in 24 hours. It’s why Albania is full of BMWs and Mercs.
It’s a pretty nasty crime, even worse when the criminals try and break into an occupied house in the middle of the night to get the car entry fob.
Anyway, miracle of miracles, the Police caught a gang that did this and four criminals were found guilty and sentenced to a total of 12 years. That works out at 3 years each.
I mention all this detail because in another BBC story, this time on the national news, a ‘Far Right rioter’ also got 3 years for kicking a police van. No jury trial.
Which is the worse crime? Under Two Tier Kier Jong Un’s rule, probably not the one most readers would think.
Mind how you go.
I’ll repeat the new 2024 Telegraph story about BBC pedo chauffeurs is wrongly claimed by the Telegraph to be new

Far Right attack on festival of diversity in Düsseldorf – at least 3 dead … how will that one pan out ?( lone Wolf – mental issues – no names if not ‘approved group ‘) …
Bit of sarcasm there by Fedup
The attacker is described as Arab-looking
But he could turn out to be a white imposter
Time will tell
This happened in Solingen just last month. It’s becoming quite a dangerous place just like the rest of Germany.
https://www1.wdr.de/nachrichten/rheinland/solingen-explosion-100.html
“The suspected perpetrator (of the bombing) in Solingen is a 17-year-old Dutchman.
The police suspect the Dutch mafia is behind these attacks and a dispute over a cannabis shipment worth more than a million euros. Such explosions have long been a common means of exerting pressure in the criminal sector, says the police.”
The Dutch mafia is coding for what they call the Mocro-Mafia, referred to in the headline but not mentioned anywhere in the text.
Definition of the Mocro-Mafia.
https://www1.wdr.de/nachrichten/mocro-mafia-hintergrund-100.html
A criminal gang of Moroccans with Dutch passports, some of whom may have been born in Holland.
I dare say they will report the murderer in Solingen as being a German, assuming he has dual or triple nationality.
If it’s true, the irony is delicious: at a “diversity festival” of all places, lol 🙂
Green – you confuse sarcasm and truth – or were you born yesterday ….. the usual media control practices in western victim countries – one of merckells boys?
But doing it at a ‘diversity festival ‘ has a certain something to it ….
The news coverage is like cop porn with heavily armed tough boys standing around with Hollywood guns doing nothing …..again …
I’m reading a medical page
“AFAB people”
what ?
“assigned female at birth”
.. They mean women and people who are women but pretend to be men
(pages using AFAB on NHS website)
Boris well he turned out to be a right liar
.. but Starmer he’s turned out to be a ….
I’m interested in media and why they suppress names
but in one of the cases I was waiting for a name to come out
The Sheffield school psycho stabber turned out to be a white guy with an uncommon Belgian surname. : Louis Melotte
We already knew he muttered about Jesus before using a glass shard to kill someone.
no one was seriously injured
One guy draws attention to his tweets about being a Christian and feeling guilty or being gay and that he follows some righty accounts
However that guy forgot to mention Melotte follows a lot mor straight porn accounts
..https://x.com/WayneHinchliffe/status/1821314677952872914
I think he is originally for Middle Earth.
Looks like Gollum.
@StewGreen
Regarding “AFAB”, the new madness continues:
On the opposite side, in Spain at least, you can apparently avoid being sentenced for “gender based violence” by claiming to be a woman now:
“Man handed 15-month jail sentence for assaulting his partner avoids prison by changing sex so that he cannot be punished for gender-based violence”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13774885/Man-handed-15-month-jail-sentence-assaulting-partner-avoids-prison-changing-sex-punished-gender-based-violence.html
More details on the “diversity” killings:
It looks like that word will become a new metaphor amongst the unapproved, as used on this forum for a while now :
‘Terror attack’ in Germany: Knifeman leaves several dead after stabbing random passersby in the neck at diversity festival – as armed police swarm streets and launch desperate hunt for killer and suggest he is still dangerous.
Three people died and four were left seriously injured after the knife attack, with armed police swarming the streets of Solingen.
Cops have launched a desperate manhunt for the killer who committed the ‘brutal and senseless’ strike at 9.45pm before fleeing – leaving a woman and two men from Solingen and nearby Dusseldorf dead.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13774951/Terror-Germany-Knifeman-dead-stabbing-random-passersby-neck-diversity-festival-armed-police-hunt-killer.html
Telegraph and Mail report police say it was terror related…BBC and Guardian don’t report that.
Curious priorities at the BBC as Jermaine Jenas gets to be the top story on the website….top story in the world apparently…..oh and yeah…if as he says this was consenting what texts did the women send him and were they sacked? Must be racism that got Jenas sacked…no?
Dear Daily Mail
The German police are armed – that is normal.
Try to keep up.
Interesting article and readers comments in the Telegraph about a policeman who tried to arrest a pickpocket in London and was set upon by the rest of the gang but no member of the public tried to help. A Met Police statement and the DT reporter both were surprised and appalled by the reluctance of the public to help.
The readers however took a very different view . I read the first 50 most liked comments and all of them took the view that this individual police officer was the unfortunate recipient of the bitter harvest of decades of liberalism which had totally undermined the values of our once mutually supportive society.
Fear of being knifed , lack of respect for the police , fear of the police, fear of being prosecuted if they ‘hurt’ the criminal, regarding the police as enemies and agents of a repressive state were all mentioned by readers as reasons why the public , well indigenous Brits , didn’t intervene or as reasons why they weren’t surprised at the publc’s unwillingness to help.
This is from the readership of a once right of centre newspaper. It seems increasingly clear to me that the political elite in this country have alienated and lost what was once the conservative , with a small c, segment of society that was most supportive of our institutions and way of government.
The elite may not yet realise it but this country is a tinder box with the majority increasingly at odds with the governing elite. It won’t take much to spark a show down.
Indeed.
I’d walk away too.
If you jumped in and punched the assailant to help the copper, would the police force then back you up in court, especially if the assailant lied when interviewed later on and ‘remembered’ that you’d called him some ‘racist’ words?
They’d probably kick your door in with a big smile on their faces, post it all over social media and let everyone know they’d do the same to all of you scum (white) citizens.
Yeah, so fuck em.
They made their bed, shat in it, got some elephants with dysentery to evacuate their bowels in it, got some drunk teenagers to projectile vomit in it, some cats to pee in it so now they get to lie in it.
This is what happens when you bite the hand that feeds you.
Some might say, (not me of course) they can now enjoy continue their bowing and scraping to the ‘communidies’ who barely contribute to their pay and hate and completely disrespect them for being so weak anyway!
And since when have cops threatened the entire citizenry like they are doing now?
Did they used to put up billboards saying, ‘Dont commit any crimes you horrible lot, because we’ll come for you. You cannot hide.”
It’s nuts.
We pay your fucking wages and overblown pensions, you cheeky c…ts!
It’s like spending £200 in Sainsbury’s and on the way to your car being accosted by the store manager saying, “Don’t even think about nicking anything. I’ll have your arse. And you’d better put that trolley back. I’m watching you!”
It’s bonkers when you think about it
Yes best avoided – lessons learned from the disorders – don’t get caught – plod will attack you in your bed – lefty judges and lawyers will through you inside if you comment on the internet ….TTK will be in full flow next time … and resistance will be stronger ….
… have they charged the Manchester airport plod yet ? Or waiting for a quiet day without a stabbing murder … gonna be a long wait …
Social media posts congratulating Jermaine Jenas on winning “Ally Of The Year” at the Women’s Football Awards have been deleted by organisers (Telegraph)
Beside referencing the phrase ‘virtue signaling’… [a pejorative term for the act of showing oneself to have good character, such as by expressing opinions that are considered morally acceptable, often on social media. The term is often used to suggest that such expressions are insincere or grandstanding] – thank you Wiki.
‘Grandstanding’ – there’s a football-related pundit pun for the teenagers.
Further comment from Mr AsI would seem superfluous, suffice to say our BBC entertainment, news and sport departments sure can pick a wrong’un.
Upon receiving the award, Jenas said he had “always been a kind of strong advocate of women in sport”.
The footballer also referenced his three daughters and mother in his acceptance speech.
According to The Mirror, he said: “[I’m] really proud, actually.
“Y’know … personally I’ve always gone about things just who I am as a person. So to receive this kind of like ally award to the women’s game, as special as it feels, I’m just a bit like, ‘Well I’m just trying to be me.’”
He went on to say: “Y’know I’ve always supported the women’s game. I’ve got three daughters of my own.
“Y’know my mum raised me so I’ve always been a kind of strong advocate of women in sport in general. It’s nice, I have to say, to be kind of like acknowledged for just being I suppose yourself. I’m really appreciative of it, so thank you very much.” (Telegraph)
Such eloquent and heart-felt words must have been really appreciated by media advocates of the women’s game. No, don’t laugh.
However on Friday, posts on X and LinkedIn that publicised the former Tottenham and England player’s award appeared to have been deleted.
One post on X previously read: “METRO WOMEN’S FOOTBALL ALLY AWARD. The winner is… Jermaine Jenas.”
Meanwhile, another post on LinkedIn read: “The 2024 Metro.co.uk Women’s Football Ally Award… A huge congratulations to Jermaine Jenas.” However, on Friday, both social media posts appeared to have been deleted.
It seems his alacrity and unwavering support for women in “sport” and “games” is narrowly confined to sport of the one on one kind.
Those where the team kits and equipment are sourced from Ann Summers and back steet suppliers in Soho maybe ?
I reckon most of those male pundits only say such stuff to keep on the gravy train.
I bet if they turn on the box at home and the wimminz footy is on, they switch it off immediately. And I wonder how many mute the tv or try to synchronise male radio commentary if a screeching banshee is on ‘coms’ for a men’s game?
But they’ll just say how great it all is.
Selling their souls to the devil.
Have some pride in yourself, man! (Someone seemed to say, not me of course… vegetable rights and peace.)
AISI, “Y’know my mum raised me” – absent babyfather leads to problems in later life.
Cathy Newman and her ilk have absolutely no idea what is happening and what is coming…..despite the vast number of Islamist attacks perhaps evidencing the future….
I’m going to buy some Polish sausage today in tribute..
Pug,
…….until one of their own is murdered/hacked to death.
So, probably best not to jump to any conclusions here, but there’s been another mass stabbing in Germany. What is interesting is that the media haven’t automatically denied any links to terrorism…
The “random” attack happened in Solingen during a festival that was celebrating 650 years since it was founded and (rather ironically) “diversity”.
Three dead. Many more badly injured. The much lauded Mrs Merkel, the “feminist icon”, who unleased over a million, mainly third world Muslim men into her country, is now living a peaceful, rural life and has written her biography, “Freedom”.
Sometimes words aren’t necessary…
Jeff
I somehow suspect that if any cctv makes it to the public – or ‘facts ‘ there won’t be a way of not making it what it is ….
This is another of those things which make me suspicious about everything Fed:
I find it amazing that we don’t get to see a single picture or video clip of something when they don’t want us to. And not a single witness describes who did it.
It is clear that they have some way to lock it down. And it is so complete, it must include ALL media including social media. There must be a ‘standard procedure’ they have which informs everybody to suppress a story. Which in turn means they have the law behind them to do it.
This is our ‘free speech’ and it’s been like this for years. No doubt created to suppress dissent from the Right when the imported enrichment started murdering people in such disproportionate amounts compared to white people.
Let’s see how the real German people react.
Zephir – judging by the fact that it was a ‘diversity festival ‘( ugh) there will be even more candles and flowers than usual – and it means even more plod at sick rainbow events showing their TTK bias ….
And lets see how long after they do that they are labelled as ‘far-right’ bad guys.
JohnC
And the consequences of concealing and telling lies and omitting is that ordinary people get more suspicious about what they are being told …. ( which is a good thing )
Unfortunately large numbers of people are only interested in who a footy pundit was trying to screw ….
.. I popped into the ‘today ‘ programme to find that the ‘c’ team were on .. presumably the bbc royalty are all at their holiday dachas writing their books about why we should trust the bbc … Huw must have his ready for the Christmas market by now …
It is provisionally titled ‘Going Down’. Allegedly.
‘Huw’s sex hell ‘( as seen on channel 5) ‘sex hell with huw ‘,,,
As I was scrolling I misread that as ‘Huw Edwards sex doll’.
Can you think of a worse Christmas present than that?
Does it read the news if you pull a cord in his back ?
Asking for a friend
Germany has very strong privacy laws. So any video clips will be blurred.
The joke is that any peaceful UK person entering the EU from October will be retina and finger printed like a common criminal.

It tis, it tis, Poland is in the EU you are completely right.
I just have a soft spot for the Poles after reading the book ‘First to Fight’

‘I will snip at all governments when they’re doing things that I don’t think are right’
Martin Lewis, money saving expert, says that whilst he’s apolitical, he’s concerned about winter fuel changes #newsnight
I wonder how the ‘diverse machete wars’ (‘carnival’)will be reported on this weekend?
They’re lucky I’m not the mayor. I’d ban it and replace it with olde English faires with maypole dancing, apple dunking n sheet.
By invite only. Conditions for admission are you must be oh look a squirrel.
Lazy – the carnival will be ‘mostly peaceful ‘ and the gangs will all live in peace … I notice that the usual pre carnival raids on diverse killers haven’t surfaced this year – the new model army of plod too busy going after Facebook warriors – more likely not to resist … still get the front door and handcuff treatment though …
Fed up
The rozzers are loving all this because it improves their arrest/conviction rate without hard work or putting themselves in danger.
Instead of hunting down and throwing machete wielding cyclists in Black Mariah’s (walk around London or Birmingham for a few minutes and you’ll probably see a few machete warriors) or chasing burglars, they get to sit behind a desk and trawl through people’s social media comments.
So brave.
Not exactly Starsky and Hutch.
Bonuses through the roof?
And they wonder why nobody believes in the police. The blacks (for the most part) never have, but at least lots of honkies always backed them.
Not anymore, Dibble, me old China.
Lazy – confession. – a couple of months ago I saw a plod chasing an ethnic … I joined in and helped capture him – the ethnic – not the plod … he had done a burglary … the ethnic -not the plod …
I’d think twice now about doing that now – having seen what they’ve become so quickly under TTK ….
As for this bank holiday weekend .. plenty of overtime all around – maybe they’ll finally be pictures of uniformed plod having sex in the street with one of the enrichers …
Those enrichers need to get cracking – things to do, records to break. They’ll need to injure more than 70 police officers just to match last year’s fun; and the total of stabbings could make double figures with a small increase.
I wish they did that (invitations) at a village cricket match I walked past a while ago. Held next to the village green which has it’s own maypole.
There was a small crowd in attendance, and a muslim wonders in, puts down a prayer mat and starts his performance in front of everyone.
Twat.
Like a dog marking its territory …
Yes, apart from that, a lovely village, and they even have Spitfires and other historic aircraft flying over on occasions as Old Warden and the Shuttleworth collection is very near.
Beautiful. Makes me well up a bit.
Ickwell, well worth a visit; the whole area is little villages and lovely, ancient pubs, woodland and cottages.
My favourite pub just up the road in Northill, to sit outside on a summers day or evening, meet you there for a pint one day maybe…
I’ll have to hurry up then.
I dread (no pun intended) to think what it’ll be in ten years time.
Looks a bit like our church – which is now closed.
I wonder how many Mosques have closed in the last 5 years. And how many new ones have been built.
Z, I have been to Old Warden for a flying display. It was a bit too windy for the Collection’s Bristol Boxkite which only has a top speed of 30mph and the commentator pointed out that the wind was gusting at times over 40mph and so the pilot of the Bristol Boxkite would occasionally find he was flying backwards. A wee bit dodgy.
Yes, they have lovely summer evening displays, but some of the planes are ancient and rather fragile
Hang said floor covering on the pavilion door handle… fatal.
Deliberate act of (perceived) supremacy and humiliation.
He knew full well what he was doing.
A see you next Thursday. Should be a deportable offence, deliberate provocation of the native population.
What a cheeky c….t!

Today
Suddenly the BBC is interested in old British people . The 0810 feature was about the excellent idea of cutting energy support for pensioners – labour might manage to freeze a few thousand pensioners to death this winter – more inheritance tax and frees up more houses for the third world imports ..
Year on year this will add to public finances so that more money can be sent to Ukraine or the third world – a triumph for Rachel ….
Usually – a story like stabbings in Germany or the Kennedy story wouid have the BBC in full flow …
But instead the follow up story was leeees dooosettt wasting her time talking about a diverse inclusive ‘proms’ – ugh ….
You could tell that leeees would much rather be bad mouthing Israel or British dissenters … painful and funny …
“Diverse inclusive proms”…
Why does the film “Carrie” spring to mind ?
Thinks……………. Country broke; £2.7 Trillion in debt (and rising);

population already screwed to the deck and more screwing to take place shortly. As always the Government will find ‘unusual’ & innovative ways to fleece the public. But hey, we don’t know what assets they have tucked away…… If we did…………..we could fleece more.
Pensioners lose Winter Payments and/or for those on Pension Credit they gain same automatically. Suggestion is, all those losing the WFP apply for Pension Credit and in the process, disclose to the lovely and trusted Government what assets they own. Savings etc, Building Society Accts etc. What did the Bad Wolf say…..I’ll huff and puff until…..
Be very careful.

‘Mpox made my throat so painful I couldn’t sleep’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly3xzdq909o
Having dropped the official name of ‘monkeypox’ which was dreadfully bad for the agenda, the BBC can now get down to their favourite activity of full-on empathy for ‘black victims’.
It’s a shame they have to go to Burundi to do it when there is so much suffering here in the UK – but we just have the wrong kind of victims here.
Well done Mercy:

We keep seeing examples of bbc ‘errors’ where they eventually put up a correction of sorts in small print hidden somewhere near the back pages.
Whether these ‘errors’ are to do with Israel, a ‘man’, Tories, Reform, incorrect nhs data and so on I think all of them are ‘errors’ which follow the bbbc’s lefty bias and do damage to the right wing which is done and dusted by the time any correction comes out somewhere.
It would be very interesting (but not surprising at all) to have a list of these ‘errors’ which help the left as opposed to the ‘errors’ (if any) which help the right.
I am sure there would be a huge list of ‘errors’ which help the left and damage the right but there would be probably no ‘errors’ which help the right and damage the left.
Such a list would demonstrably show the bbbc bias for what it is.
Has such a list ever been published anywhere.
Why doesn’t someone on the Right do this list, someone who could put it on tv or in a daily newspaper.
From my post above (read 80 bbc muslim lies)
Ex-BBC chief: Network’s Arabic service rife with anti-Israel bias, support for terror.
Danny Cohen says some reporters speak in same voice as Hamas or have celebrated Oct. 7 massacre, broadcaster has made 80 corrections since the war began.

Remember that in the novel “1984”, the Ingsoc media used the formula “Big Brother misquoted” when something happened that clearly contradicted a recent official statement. So BB was never actually wrong.

Many interesting comments below the above, such as:
“When I finally gave TR a chance and actually listened to him I was shocked! I couldn’t believe how much the media and establishment had painted a completely different picture. That man is a force for good no doubt. There is no racism at all…and the burning desire for a working class lad to shout about the problems against establishment forces is quite frankly heroic and humane in the extreme.”
Interesting that Douglas Murray sees that his ability to ‘speak out ‘ is soon to be limited ….
.. and the word ‘tinderbox’ is being used more and more in reference to the UK – the Elon Musk prediction of ‘civil war ‘ may be nearer than many people think .
If disorder spreads again I reckon the TTK will be very quick to pull the plug on X and others to try to prevent the spread ….
.. and perhaps the msm will be targeted too …

Farage is bringing Reform UKs conference to Birmingham in September.
Nigel Farage, Lee Anderson, Richard Tice and Reform MPs have given confidence to far right thugs on our streets by whipping up Islamophobia, racism and anti-migrant rhetoric. Reform attracted the worst racist and even Nazi candidates in the general election. At fascist Tommy Robinson’s London demonstration, the vast majority of the 15,000 strong crowd put their hand up when asked if they voted Reform.
Reform are a far right threat in parliament. Join us in protesting their conference on Friday 20 September #RefugeesWelcome S
So much for democracy eh, socialist workers party ?
Note the ready made placards in the first shot…all the same as well, and the anti jewish sentiments.

I note the pre-Wokism historical days when we could take no implication from the simple act of males holding hands………….
The mad *socialists* always seem to have professionally printed posters and they are all the same. Nothing changes.
I wonder who funds them each time? Remember Germany was in the depths of recession at the time.
Edit: Zeph You got there before me with exactly the same thought.
I have said before and posted on here, one of the Socialist Worker (sic) rag regular contributors has a print company.
I suggest a counter protest countering them counter protesting (we’ll sort of).
Only the regime enthusiasts counter protest.
About time ‘the far right’ did the same.
How about everyone dressing up as ‘pointing soyjacks’ (look it up) and protesting that they are protesting about the other lot protesting (at the next ‘far right’ protest)?
They honestly think they’re freedom fighters (libtards).
They’re brain dead idiots (or satanic leftists) who are nothing but government policy cheerleaders.
Fools.
The biggest embarrassment of my entire life is having to share oxygen with them…in fact, having them part of the sane universe brings utter shame upon me.
Don’t worry – the starmer new model army will escort all those ‘Londoners ‘ in their coaches from Islington to Birmingham – although that’s a bit ‘north ‘ for many …
.. besides TTK will ban the Reform conference in the name of community cohesion …. Wouldn’t it be great if president trump sent a video message – ? The far left bbc would have a stroke….
Best thing that could happen is Trumpy winning and offering British patriotic types asylum due to them being genuinely oppressed.
It would be wonderful if everyone left the leftists to be alone with only the diversity they love to run and pay for everything.
Not that I’d like to leave the UK, but I’m not keen on living in TTK’s Communist Britain.

Weekend fact :
Did you know, Norwich is further north than Birmingham ?
Zephir – that’s more relevant than what gaslighting or doxing means …. Being one who has spent a fair amount of time in Norwich I was aware – and if you gave me the choice of places to be – can you guess which I’d choose …?
Not for the first time, last night the BBC did a story about inflation/ cost of living crisis/energy prices/ having no spare cash and the voxpop they chose was……a grossly obese woman with a load of kids and no husband anywhere.
Are we missing something? Perhaps the BBC still occasionally do satire and black humour after all…..
Yes, I looked at the bins as they were out on Wednesday, our benefits family up the road, piles of brown takeaway bags in the paper bin, tons of them.
All delivered as well, as are all their supermarket deliveries, they can’t even be bothered to drive their new free motability SUV.
Insidious.
The conspiracy minded may see a pattern emerging, first Mr Farage and now:
“Fury as NatWest debanks one of Britain’s biggest Holocaust memorial charities with no explanation.
Yad Vashem UK – an education charity based in London – was told last month that ‘following a recent review’, the bank had decided ‘to cease’ all relations with the organisation.
The group was told it had less than four months to find a new bank before the account was closed. It comes little more than a year after NatWest’s then-chief executive, Dame Alison Rose, was forced to resign after private bank Coutts closed Nigel Farage’s account in a ‘debanking’ scandal.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13774655/Fury-NatWest-debanks-one-Britains-biggest-Holocaust-memorials-no-explanation.html
For those that don’t know Yad Vashem is a museum/memorial in Israel to those who died in the holocaust and a memorial to the righteous who were non Jews who helped them.
But I know other non-Jewish charities in the UK, terrified of trying to open a deposit account earning anything more than a minimal iota of interest but fear that the banks will debank them BECAUSE thet are a charity.
I am not really what one might call a sports buff, but I impressed myself this morning:
“TEAMSHEET: Test yourself in Mail Sport’s football memory game… Man City shocked Man United to win 6-1 at Old Trafford in 2011, but can YOU remember the visiting team from their emphatic victory?”
Yes, it’s Manchester City FC.
Well done me.
ED MILLIPEDE….HOW LONG CAN WE SUFFER FROM HIM…?
I thought it might be helpful to remind myself of some of the things ED Millipede “climate zealot “said on coming into office all that time ago…( yes it’s about six weeks).
There was the guff…what an honour .blah blah. What a privelage blah ..etc.etc. brilliant civil servants ..blah..blah.. then the aspiration..
1 ) Mission to boost energy independence..cut bills…..BUT at the same time no new licenses for oil and gas in our own Seas. Oh, and new price cap = £149 increase average annual bill
2 )Standing up for consumers by reforming our energy systems….NO Details of what that meant…BUT .Rreevenomics…. cut and control winter fuel allowance.
3 ) Creating “good”jobs in Britain’s industrial heartlands……except anything involving steel ..it’s so old fashioned anyway, who on earth has stuff made from metal? Voluntary redundancy ..you know it makes sense..all those workers did’nt really want those nasty dirty jobs anyway.
4 ) Leading on International climate action…. Managed to find 11.5 £ Billion to borrow and then give away to third world. So he’s doing very,very well there.
All since his appointment on 8th July….but his last utterance was his assurance that he is fighting for “us”.
That’s alright then.
Modern economics. I’m not an expert by any stretch, but somebody who knows much more about these things than I, summarised it thus:
1. Holy crap we can’t afford to pay for all this. Too many taking out of the pot. We can’t afford to borrow more. So let’s…
2. Print money! And keep printing it!
3. But inflation keeps going up by doing this. People are in a cost of living crisis. £9 for a jar of coffee. Essential workers like junior doctors and train drivers are going on strike again because of their money not going as far. The train drivers only own 3 properties instead of the 4 they expected by now. Ermm…so…let’s…oh I know. Borrow money.
5. But now infation is running off again..
Rinse and repeat.
The only answer to this is too unpalatable for most. The can will be kicked down the road until the bubble bursts and we see Zimbabwe 2005 levels of inflation.
Too many people. Too many not paying in. Too many paying for others who should not even be here.

I wonder how the 9/11 attacks would be reported in the modern era by the BBC?
‘Modes of transport in apparent collisions with buildings in New York City.’
‘Police urge people not to speculate on various vehicular incidents today in the USA. After pre indicent video confessions were posted on the internet just hours after the transport incidents, it is thought a group of men from a country somewhere on Earth may be responsible. Sir Keir Starmer today reminded the people of the SPRB (Socialist People’s Republic of Britain) that discussing or even thinking about these incidents is a serious criminal act (random brain wave reads will be conducted). Comrades found thinking too much about this will receive an immediate life sentence.’

A doctor who was facing charges over child abuse images in England carried out unsupervised consultations with under-18s while working at a Scottish hospital, a tribunal has revealed.
Dr Carey Girling was banned from treating child patients without a chaperone present while he was being investigated by police.
He broke these restrictions on more than one occasion in March 2022 while working at Belford Hospital in Fort William. The following year, he was convicted of making indecent photographs of children
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3vxzyr0nd6o
NHS Highland said Dr Girling had clear instruction from the General Medical Council (GMC) – which maintains the official register of medical practitioners – that he had to have chaperones for any patient under 18.

BBC Arabic is to be renamed BBC HAMAS
From the DT START The BBC has been accused of whitewashing Hamas after describing suicide bomb attacks which killed dozens of civilians in Israel as “military operations”.
The corporation’s Arabic channel last month reported that Mohammed Deif, the Hamas military leader, had launched a string of “military operations” against Israel which culminated on Oct 7.
Camera, which stands for the committee for accuracy in Middle East reporting and analysis, claims that BBC Arabic’s reporting suggested that the attacks were aimed at soldiers instead of civilians – and that this had the effect of whitewashing Hamas.
It pointed out that the total death toll in the attacks which Deif had planned was 93, with 80 of the victims civilians, aged 13 to 83. Only 13 of those killed were soldiers and other security personnel.
In a story about Deif’s assassination by Israeli forces, BBC Arabic said: “For approximately 30 years, [Deif] took part in several military operations against Israel, starting from kidnapping soldiers and rocket attacks, passing through military operations and culminating in the October 7th, 2023 attack.”
Camera, which lobbies for a fair media representation of Israel, said: “Downplaying Palestinian groups’ responsibility for targeting innocent civilians as mere ‘accusations’, which only Israel and the US supposedly aim at them, has been a BBC Arabic habit for years.
“Even when the Palestinian groups themselves boast about similar murders, BBC Arabic reporters would often use their own voice to falsely describe them as ‘military operations’ carried out against ‘soldiers’ or ‘gunmen’.”
As a military leader for Hamas, Deif was responsible for killing at least 70 civilians, the majority of them in a series of suicide bombings in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv in the 1990s.
Several more were killed in Israeli settlements in the Gaza Strip during the 2000s.
When BBC Arabic reported that Deif had been killed in an Israeli strike on a refugee camp in southern Gaza on July 14, it ran a package illustrated by images of the bus bomb attacks and others organised by the Hamas leader.
However, the accompanying caption and text stated: “Deif planned a series of military operations against Israel which caused the kidnapping and killing of dozens of soldiers in the 1990s”.
The BBC defended its coverage of Deif’s death. A spokesman told The Telegraph: “BBC News Arabic has made clear throughout our coverage that Muhammad Deif was listed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist by the US and the EU.
“We quoted the Israeli military describing Deif as a terrorist and that they hold him responsible for the murder of Israelis, and we referenced the serious accusations he faced around the 1996 attacks.
“Our audiences were in no doubt about Deif’s actions and the fact that he had been called a terrorist, including by Israel.”ENDS
Keep going IDF – stick BBC HAMAS on the target list …
