Start the Week 7 October 2024

101 hostages are still thought to be alive one year on . May they keep strong . How will the Islamic far left BBC mark the anniversary? Roll out the continuous anti Israel anti IDF unverified Islamic terrorist claims ? Probably . The BBC still refuses to refer to Islamic terrorist gangs such as Hamas as ‘terrorist ‘-even though the Law describes them as such. The clearest indication of there the BBC support lies .

    “Hamas fires rockets into Israel on first anniversary of terrorist atrocity, prompting IDF to issue evacuation orders to Gazans and warn of ‘extreme’ response.

    Israeli President Isaac Herzog began the day with a minute of silence at 6:29am – the moment the attack started – at the site of the Nova music festival near Re’im where heavily armed Hamas fighters killed at least 370 people.

    Minutes later the service was marred by air raid sirens as Hamas declared it launched projectiles at the ‘enemy gatherings’ just a few kilometres from the border with Gaza, as well as at Tel Aviv.”

    Regardless of the merits or importance of this case, the following is interesting:

    “Rebekah Vardy wants to halve the £1.8million legal bill she faces in her ‘Wagatha Christie’ libel battle with Coleen Rooney, the High Court has been told.

    She is demanding a 50 per cent cut in the settlement as it was alleged that Coleen was charging for a lawyer’s stay at a five-star Nobu Hotel.

    In written submissions for a hearing beginning today, Jamie Carpenter KC, representing Rebekah, said that this included costs for a lawyer staying ‘at the Nobu Hotel, incurring substantial dinner and drinks charges as well as mini bar charges’. Reports today suggested that among the costs were £2,000 for her solicitor’s stay at London’s five-star Nobu Hotel and a £225 food and minibar tab.

    Mr Carpenter said: ‘The costs dispute has been rendered particularly intractable by the sheer magnitude of the costs claimed by Mrs Rooney, in absolute terms and when compared to her agreed costs budget, the number of errors in the bill and the extraordinary nature of some of the costs claimed.

    ‘The bill, drawn at 100 per cent of the costs claimed totals £1,833,906.89.’
    Mr Carpenter said the bill was ‘drawn without sufficient care’ and had ‘a ‘kitchen sink’ approach’, and included ‘over £120,000 of costs to which Coleen had no entitlement’. He also said that Coleen’s barrister David Sherborne, ‘charged total fees over the course of the proceedings of £497,850’.”

    France solve youth unemployment …..

    “Marseille’s public prosecutor stated that the situation in the city of some 860,000 has reached “a whole other level”, expressing his concern that drug-trafficking gangs were recruiting boys at an increasingly young age.

    A spate of murders — one involving a 15-year-old burned alive and another committed by a 14-year-old hitman-for-hire — has caused an uproar over the drug war plaguing France’s second-biggest city.”

    Drug war in Marseille: Deaths involving teen hitmen spark public outrage in France

    ……….. In Wales you can only vote at 16. In France you can join a gang at 14! ……..

    France’s drug trafficking market currently rakes in €3 billion a year. A drug dealing spot can generate anywhere between €25 and €90,000 in a single day, while five to 10 drug dealing points are dismantled daily in Marseille alone.

    “Exclusive: BP abandons goal to cut oil output, resets strategy.

    LONDON, Oct 7 (Reuters)

    BP has abandoned a target to cut oil and gas output by 2030 as CEO Murray Auchincloss scales back the firm’s energy transition strategy to regain investor confidence, three sources with knowledge of the matter said.

    When unveiled in 2020, BP’s strategy was the sector’s most ambitious with a pledge to cut output by 40% while rapidly growing renewables by 2030. BP scaled back the target in February last year to a 25% reduction, which would leave it producing 2 million barrels per day at the end of the decade, as investors focused on near-term returns rather than the energy transition.

    The London-listed company is now targeting several new investments in the Middle East and the Gulf of Mexico to boost its oil and gas output, the sources said.

    Auchincloss took the helm in January but has struggled to stem the drop in BP’s share price, which has underperformed its rivals so far this year as investors question the company’s ability to generate profits under its current strategy.”

    American presidents have an aura of power. It’s not from the individual, but all the secret service, staff and fussing around. I felt that around Clinton, Bush and Obama… but funnily enough not with Donald Trump.

      Bet he had a wee sniff when HMRC noticed the £65k he had ‘overlooked’.

      Maybe the aura is from the individual, and the first three needed the accessories to exude it?

        I don’t know but she looks pretty miffed in the left picture, they must have woken her up for the pic, she’s still in her dressing gown.

        Not a happy bunch are they ?

        Apparently, they had to photoshop the left pic to hide the presidents shirt showing below his waistcoat.

        Next, he will get some trousers that fit and are not too long.
