    Oh my word. Look at me. No.1 again. I’m like a BBC narcissist.

    Only joking – here’s my point:

    ‘I hate Trump, she likes him – we both think he staged assassination attempts’
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cvglm0rjy2go

    Sorry for being repetitive, but this is being pushed as the #3 headline in the world today.

    What kind of utterly irresponsible nonsense is this ?. The BBC are totally abusing their power to spread misinformation in the worst kind I can imagine : via a publically funded state broadcaster who has a mandate to be impartial.

    There is no chance whatsoever that they were staged. None at all. A bullet grazed his ear FFS while he was moving about on-stage. A staged attempt would never take such a risk. It is absolutely disgraceful for the BBC to run a headline like this.

    This article should have the BBC up in front of MP’s. We all know Marianna is a bare-faced liar for her own interests, but someone else has approved this article to get the priority it has.

    They have gone to far with this one. If there are no repercussions, we can safely assume the rest of the ‘establishment’ and OFCOM are complicit.

      And for desert : the other thing which has been bugging me

      These recent revelations about Sue Gray would have the partygate report under the spotlight in any true democracy and ‘free press’.

      The fact nobody has made the connection tells me everything I need to know. The enemy is within.

        How little is being said in the press to remind people that it was Sue Grey who brought Boris down. Where stands the truth re Boris and cakes and photos of parties in the No10 garden. It was leaked that they were taken from Rishi’s office. Did Sue Grey have access to Rishi’s office or was it her leaking the story to cause problems between Boris and Rishi.

        I have to add when Boris became PM, I had hope but his views on rewilding greatly disappointed me.

        I think we have to rethink what we knew of Boris’ reign it may all have been true, it might ll be false. But what we see of Sue Grey, I think questions should be asked. BBC Verify where are you?

    Rayner defends using donor’s New York flat for holiday
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ce8vmv1mpggo

    Look what a ridiculousy easy ride the vile Kuenessberg gives her over this. Rayner is as thick as shit but is allowed to talk complete nonsense without question. They have very obviously discussed the questions she would be asked in advance.

    Her argument seems to be that because he had given her money before, some more didn’t need to be declared.

    The astute observer will note the lack of constant interrupts by an aggressive Kuenessberg accompanied by a sharpness to her voice. It reminds me of the last one I saw like this which was with Corbyn.

    The BBC’s activism must be stopped before we can bring the country back to real-world common sense. And that can only be done by making them earn their viewers via voluntary subscription.

    They are actively destroying the fabric of our country. They are a cancer.

    Labour Party Conference

    I’ve been in Liverpool today, not for the Conference of course! I’ve had a good view of the Arena and the area around Conference, there are literally hundreds of Police in attendance to guard the Great Leader and his gang. I would estimate there are between 300 and 500 officers actually on duty plus dozens of riot vans, motorcycles and cars. It seems a poor use of valuable Police resources.
    I had a good view of the Conference when Corbyn was their leader, there was far less Police presence.
    It’s come to something when our Government has to have such a degree of protection from its citizens.

        “Upon achieving power, Ceaușescu eased press censorship and condemned the Warsaw Pact invasion of Czechoslovakia in his speech of 21 August 1968, which resulted in a surge in popularity. However, this period of stability was brief, as his government soon became totalitarian and came to be considered the most repressive in the Eastern Bloc. His secret police, the Securitate, was responsible for mass surveillance as well as severe repression and human rights abuses within the country, and controlled the media and press. Ceaușescu’s attempts to implement policies that would lead to a significant growth of the population led to a growing number of illegal abortions and increased the number of orphans in state institutions. Economic mismanagement due to failed oil ventures during the 1970s led to very significant foreign debts for Romania.”

      I do not understand why the far-left scum are having this level of police protection. I lived in a city from 1981 where I only once saw police patrolling the street.

      Fast forward to just before the election and there was a climate change conference in the same city attended by the election candidates.

      Just because the girly far-left-scum labour candidate was afraid of his own shadow there was massive police presence – on foot, driving by, and everybody searched and patted down just to go into a church for gods sake.

      When the labour girlies contact the police for help they should be told the same thing as a young man who has just been viciously attacked by a group of thugs:

    Not BBC – but dead conservatives – this time it is one William (bill ) ( billy ) Cash – who stood down at the election after having had his snout in the trough for a hundred years as an MP
    Mr cash writed a column in the Telegraph saying his pal John ERM Major was right to condemn Nigel Farage for ruining brexit .

    The delusion really is something . He thinks fararge delivered a labour government – and we Brexiters – reformers – are also responsible …

    You can guess the comments – namely how out of touch people like Cash are – and that the false tories
    failed the test causing the rise of reform – a truly blue party …

    It’s such a shame the blues won’t just all go away and die …
    BTW – I wonder if the sunak family have gone to California yet ? Actually who cares …

    • Doublethinker says:

      Fed, readers comments were turned off after only a few hundred had been posted. 99% of the comments were laughing at Cash and saying that he was delusional if he thought that the Tories didn’t get what they deserved , that they were finished as a political force and that the future lay with Reform.
      Similarly Jenrick has in recent had two columns closed for comments very early and most of the comments that did get posted all repeated that the Tories are finished and Reform is the way ahead.
      There is no doubt that the Tories have lost a key constituency represented by Telegraph readers and there is no way that they are going to get it back.
      Full steam ahead for Reform. But they must not compromise , they must not bow to establishment pressure . The more hate they get from the MSM the better they are doing and the more votes they will get.

          Fed,
          I have thought for some time that the One Nation type of Tory, be they MPs or MSMers, simply don’t understand that their allegiance to Davos rather than to the British people, has finally been rumbled by the electorate.
          Their delusion is that they think if they can undermine Reform by whatever means then when Labour inevitably fail voters will turn to them. They don’t realise how deep the anger is about their betrayal of the British people over immigration, Brexit, Net Zero, the culture war etc etc.
          Provided Reform stick to the four key topics listed above and produce a credible economic plan they will be the centre right party of choice and the Tories will be a fringe party.
          It is a certainty that after the next election Reform will either be the government or the opposition.

    The BBC don’t emphasise that Andrew Tate is Black…as black as Harris or Markle….wonder why he ain’t black?……Just who is Andrew Tate? asks the BBC…answer….

    ‘He is named after his father, an American who worked for the US Air Force in Britain, and who was also a chess master. His mother and father met in the UK before moving to America where Tate was raised until his parents divorced.’

    As with the ‘racist’ Jane Goody the black father is somehow scrubbed from history.

    US Election polls suggest a tight race with Halfwit Harris ahead at present.
    But look at Rasmussen and their analysis of other companies polling data and many inconsistencies are revealed. Admittedly the analysis is too complicated in parts for me to understand fully but the Rasmussen head of polling suggests that some polls are being manipulated to put Harris ahead and that the truth is that on National Polls Trump has a lead of 1 to 3 points, which give him a large win.
    This is backed up by the admittedly Conservative commentator Bill O Reilly who also reckons the polls are being fiddled and that Trump is ahead. Both commentators think Trump is much better placed than he was in 2016 or 2020.
    But as Fed keeps on telling us the Globalist’s who run the West can’t allow Trump to win , it would be curtains for them. But they only have a few options.

    Put in another fix and claim that the polls were correct all along. But it will need to be something much more sophisticated and convincing than last time if there isn’t going to be mass unrest .

    Get another lone gunman who can’t be linked to them to be successful at the third time of asking. But all the indications are that if they did this Vance would win by a land slide.

    The summer may be over but things are hotting up!

      Double – if I was Obama I’d fix the polls so that when Harris steals the election it wouldn’t be a ‘surprise ‘ – dodgy postal votes – dodgy counters and their systems – dodgy heads of states all add to the fix .

      With the msn repeating its’ 2020 look the other way and federal democrat agencies ready to rubber stamp the win and find another political trial for President Trump – unless they kill him first ….. which I think is most likely – I wonder if he has a food taster ….?

      All of the above accords with the mad conspiracy theory line – but as the stupid say ‘it is what it is ‘ ‘from the get go ‘ … I’m off to do some dog whistle pork barrel populist gaslighting …

      • Doublethinker says:

        I am sure that the poll fiddling that we are seeing is prep work for a fix if they think that they can get away with it. But there will be much greater scrutiny by Trump supporters at all the counts this time so it is going to be much more difficult . Plus the public are going to be much less likely to accept a fix and much more ready to believe evidence of fixing that is presented to them than they were in 2020.
        All in all a fix in 2024 is going to be a lot more difficult to pull off than it was in 2020.

        Assassination could well spark retaliation ,something Harris might be worried about, but would certainly also give Vance a lot more votes . The Globalist junta is in a fix , pun intended.

    Win-win situation and good Times ahead edition

    Let’s stand back for a moment and compare and contrast our BBC’s attitude revealed here in the tone of its headlines concerning these two alternate zones of foreign conflict…

    Zelensky to present ‘victory plan’ to Biden, Harris and Trump

    Israel and Hezbollah urged to step back as UN warns of ‘catastrophe’

    Two-tier BBC? One wonders if it happened that five or six million recently arrived Ruskies were living in northern English towns (with snow still on their boots) and if Russian ‘communities’ were so ingrained (not integrated, you’ll undertstand) in our country that even the Mayor of London happened to be a Russian orthodox mate of Putin – whether that might skew our foreign policy choices somewhat differently? That and our lap dog status vis-à-vis the US State Department.

    Ukraine missile request under discussion – Lammy… David Lammy told the BBC it was important that countries supporting Ukraine had “a shared strategy to win”. (BBC)

    UK suspends some arms exports to Israel… Foreign Secretary David Lammy said the UK would be suspending 30 out of 350 arms export licences to Israel, affecting equipment such as parts for fighter jets, helicopters and drones (BBC)

    The gynaeceum that is BBC news staff admire the regime-central Times newspaper for their top pick in their online press line-up this morning. Gosh, how we’ve come an awful long way since the days when BBC journos muttered under their breath how they saw their job as contering the influence of ‘The Tory Press’.

    Good times ahead if we seize them, says Reeves… Chancellor will strike optimistic note in speech – good Times indeed. A sure way to get a good response to your speech is of course to pre-release it to a sympathetic news editor. While Tories of the David Cameron and Theresa May ilk would give their eye teeth for a sympathetic write-up from the BBC or the Guardian the Starmer adminstration enjoys an easy nod of approval from the formerly patriotic, formerly serious, former Thunderer.

    A nod is as good as a wink as Cate Blanchett, your frontpage-full colour pin-up, leers knowingly from the cover of the Times – as though that organ were symbolically knowingly breaking the fourth wall with its formerly conservative audience: Glittering Prize… Cate Blanchett was handed a lifetime achievement award…

    Did anyone vote for a Voice for Cate Blanchett to parliament? Hollywood has a message no-voting neanderthals – evolve deplorables! (Spectator Australia, July 2023)

    Cate Blanchett’s Cannes dress causes political stir… designed by Haider Ackermann, which first appeared as a simple black dress… But when Blanchett hit the carpet, she lifted her hem exposing the green lining and a pale pink back to the dress. Seen against the film festival’s red carpet, many fans believe this was a gesture showing solidarity with Palestine… The Australian actress has been open about her stance on the ceasefire… She is well known for her activism (A convenient debut hereabouts for Shift ‘We’ve got fashion covered’)

    In further pushing of the latest regime narratives: Al Fayed ‘extreme sex trafficking’ claim (Times)

    Heaven forfend the Times lends a banner frontpage headline to this apparently less newsworthy egregious example of ‘extreme sex trafficking’: Judge orders Rotherham rape gang survivor to REMOVE demand for deportations in court statement (GB News); England: Outrage as Judge Blocks ‘Grooming Gang’ Victim From Calling for Rapists’ Deportation… Seven men from predominantly Pakistani backgrounds in Rotherham were convicted of offences committed between April 2003 and April 2008… the unnamed woman read out her ‘victim impact statement,’ legal paperwork intended not as evidence but to assist the judge in sentencing. GB News, the sole UK national broadcaster to cover the trial, saw an unredacted version of the document which had a key section removed from her closing remarks—under official duress. (The European Conservative)

    The Times… Regime Central, you claim, Mr AsI…?

    Peter Jay the former Times economics editor who became ambassador to Washington died at home yesterday at the age of 87 (Times)

    Andrew Neil is back on Times Radio 1pm today (Times)

    Murder probe after teenage boy stabbed to death

    Apparently he said ‘I’m 15, I’m 15, don’t let me die’ as he died. A snippet the BBC would normally jump on for maximum empathy.

    But it seems this murder has gone straight to regions. To make room for stories about the BBC’s high-agenda topics such as SAS ‘war crimes’ and a 14 year old boy up in court for simply attending an anti-immigration protest. It seems they want parents to shop their kids to the police if they are right-wing. Got a distinct ring of Nazi Germany about it.

    Which of course means the dead boy is black and whoever stabbed him is also black. The BBC don’t care about those. They can’t be used against whitey.

    Why ‘Comrade Kamala’ memes are spreading among Latino exiles
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cn8jg11ynj7o

    And another article by the BBC to protect Harris and attack Trump. It seems only Trump supporters post disinformation and lies.

    Nothing new there, but here we have another whopping lie by omission:

    ‘Elon Musk, who has endorsed Trump, posted a faked image of Kamala Harris in a red uniform emblazoned with the communist hammer and sickle, captioned “Kamala vows to be a communist dictator on day one. Can you believe she wears that outfit!?”’

    The image was:
    GWfMikTWUAAeiv0?format=jpg&name=small

    I thought Musk doesn’t normally do blatant things like that and my suspicions hightened when it was an embedded picture : I could not click it to see the post and check the context.

    And sure enough, it was a sarcastic respone to a tweet by Harris:
    GWapMLAXUAIdhL-?format=jpg&name=small

    This is basically another blatant lie by the BBC. I’ve spotted a few just in the last few days.

      To be absolutely honest, Trump actually did say he would be a dictator on day one if he was elected president…….

      He went on to say that he would only be a dictator on the first day of his second term, and he specified that it would only be for two issues.

      “I want to close the border and I want to drill, drill, drill,” Trump said. “Other than that, I am not a dictator.”

      The Kamala Cabal created a very dishonest impression with that selective, and out of context, clip of just a few words that Trump said, so they can hardly call out Trump’s Troops for sending out a meme which is no more dishonest when depicting Harris as a communist/dictator.

        I saw, in the media, a clip of the young man who heckled Reeves this morning being ‘escorted’ out of the hall. It was described in this particular media outlet as the community thug grabbing the protestor by the neck. However, during at least two points of the removal, the young man was literally being gripped by the throat. Couldn’t possibly have ben an attempt to shut down any sort of vocal comments, could it ?

    Did anyone see the Beeb’s Breakfast TV report on the banning of ‘Zombie knives’ this morning? We’re introduced to Faron Paul who runs his own knife amnesty company (naturally, he’s black – which will please D&I teams immensely) – we see him taking large knives from white hands (on camera), so as to add balance to the narrative that knife crime is almost exclusively a black youth problem.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0kjvnd1728o

    Faron has himself been stabbed 18 times, so some credit must go to him for actually doing something about the problem. The piece highlights that if you have a bigger knife than the Yoof aggressor squaring up to you, then you’ll be safe, fam.

    Also, the amnesty bins near police stations are not big enough to take the huge blades, so what ya gonna do?

    How are these huge machetes and blades getting into the country in the first place? Many of the purchases have been online, and without safety checks – must be easy to present fake ID I guess.

    There has to be a proper deterrent, and that must mean stop and search has to be more effective. There should be custodial sentences for possession of a knife, no exceptions.

    But the liberal betwetters and do-gooders will cry racism if we dare to suggest there might be a direct correlation in the percentage rise of serious knife crime since 2019, and the percentage rise in illegal immigration over the same period.

      DL, I remember the scene in Crocodile Dundee when Croc is threatened with a knife. The exchange goes something like this: Croc “Call that a knife?” Croc “This is a knife” pulling out a larger blade. Then if I remember correctly, Crocodile Dundee pulls out a gun and shoots his would-be assailant.

      That is replicated in the first Indiana Jones film where Indy is threatened by someone again with a knife but Indy has his bullwhip handy and cracking it pulls the knife out of the would-be assailant’s hand.

      My interwebby is very slow at present. I leave it to someone else on here to search for and put up the relevant movie clips.

        2 months ago I had a hospital referral take place that had already taken a few months to filter through.

        GP just advised by text he has the results, but is not qualified to interpret. So I asked the receptionist via the phone filter if I was then?

        Probably a poor start. Anyhoo, she said I needed to call the hospital direct, and if that was a bust start the whole process again. It was a bust. No one picked up.

        Currently still alive, but…

    Strange this sin’t a bigger story on the BBC…

    ‘Nurses in England say 5.5% pay rise not enough’

    It’s on the home page but not prominent..in fact first look I missed it completely…and oddly not on the UK page….despite it being a significant story given that, one, it was deliberately announced by the union just as Reeves was boasting about the splurging of money paying off the unions, and two, that those cosy little deals have now led to another union demanding similar payments….who’d have thought that would happen?

    It’s hugely significant politically as Labour’s largesse has opned the door for more excessive demands that will be hard to refuse given Labour’s claims that strikes afre more expensive than settling high demands….thus unions ramp up demands.

    Just not significant for the BBC to notice….are they downplaying this huge cockup?

    The MP’s other bright panel proposals include:

    Imposing state regulation on newspapers to ensure they aren’t “marking their own homework.“
    “Safeguard the independence of the BBC by removing the threat of charter renewal.” So the state broadcaster avoids any and all unaccountably on a permanent basis…
    Impose Leveson 2. With measures that go even further than Section 40…
    Subsidise “independent journalism” with a tax on “evil tech giants.“
    Another tax on “the wealthy owners of these companies so they can’t throw their weight around and torpedo effective progressive policy measures.“
    Bell stops short of suggesting the foundation of a state-run newspaper. Doubtless her proposals’ happy destruction of the free press would necessitate one…

    If they are correct and not useless, why don’t they fight back saying there is NO £20B. black hole.

    Where does the £22bn claim come from?
    The £21.9bn figure was in an audit published by the Treasury at the end of July, external – just a few weeks after Labour came to power.

    The document looked at areas of public spending which are set to go over budget this year, including:

    Public sector pay rises

    Overspending on certain projects, such as supporting the asylum system

    Unforeseen costs, such as inflation being higher than expected

    Military assistance to Ukraine

    To put the figure into context, in the Spring Budget, external it was expected that total public spending this year would be £1,226bn. The £22bn is a small proportion of that.

    But Gemma Tetlow from the Institute for Government think tank told BBC More or Less: “looking back at history and the amount that the government tends to overspend its budgets in previous years, £22bn would be quite a large number”.

    To cover some of the shortfall, Chancellor Rachel Reeves made several announcements:

    Ending winter fuel payments for those not receiving pension credit

    Cancelling infrastructure projects, such as the road tunnel near Stonehenge

    Scrapping previous government measures, such as the planned cap on social care charges from October 2025.

    go over budget this year

    * public sector pay rises
    * supporting the asylum system
    * inflation being higher than expected
    * military assistance to Ukraine

    None of above touched to reduce spending! HA HA HAH A H

    ………………………

    The scandal that erupted in the United Kingdom in May 2009 concerning MPs’ abuse of
    expenses allowances constitutes an ideal setting to study accountability channels in some detail and to
    identify some of the causal links at play. First, the scandal involves a well-defined set of political
    actors, namely the members of parliament who were in office in May 2009, who all faced the same
    rules and constraints regarding their expenses. Second, the scandal erupted within a very short time
    frame for all MPs involved and focused on the same issue for all MPs, namely abusing the allowance
    system. These two features make scandal involvement comparable across MPs and provide a marked
    identification advantage compared to either cross-country studies or studies that, even within a
    country, compare scandals which occurred in different periods, concerning different sorts of political
    actors and different types of wrongdoing. Moreover, the scandal was salient in public debate for
    several months and it was followed by an election only one year after it began.

Bad contracts with flat fees were signed by Bessie Smith, Nina Simone, Chuck Berry and many others, which ended up losing them tens of millions of dollars. ‘

    This is a rehash of Alvin Hall’s dive into Black music a few years back….trouble is that much of the exploitation and the hate was from other blacks and black companies. Hall told us that Rap was the authentic sound of Black people in American cities…and then went on to claim that this form of music was exploitation because…soooo many white people bought it…and made the musicians mega rich…but apparently that’s bad….this is not how black lives should be portrayed…despite, lol, it being authentically ‘black’.
