We will have fireworks going off every night on Friday, Saturday, Sunday and probably Monday and definitely Tuesday this year as November 5th is a Tuesday.
And Diwali, a couple of years ago I genuinely thought a bomb had gone off that evening.
In my, ahem, multicultural branch of Tesco, all the signage is about their products for Diwali, which is on November 1.
Even the awful Americanism of Halloween doesn’t get a look in.
So expecr several days of very loud banging fireworks,
Sorry, I don’t want to keep bleating on about this, but just another thought about the Lucy Connolly prison sentence…
Here’s a youngish woman who has lost an infant son due, I’m told, to the incompetence of our beloved NHS. She’s a married woman with another child and no criminal record. What she Tweeted was spontaneous and quickly removed, instantly regretted and apologised for.
Now let’s look at that darling of the Beeb and serial paedo, Huw Edwards. What he was up to went on for years. He groomed a young lad and downloaded some of the vilest images of child abuse it’s possible to imagine. These apparently include images of penetration with kiddies under 7 years of age. Huw received a 6 month suspended sentence and has been placed on the sex offenders register. I think he’s also got to do a spot of community service. My heart bleeds…
Lucy Connolly, by way of mitigating circumstances, had lost an infant child. I can’t imagine anything worse…She has no previous criminal record. Until now she hasn’t put a foot wrong.
Huw Edwards’ mitigating excuses amounted to being pissed off because he failed to get into Oxford University.
It seems that any pretence of sanity by the courts has vanished to be replaced by a vindictive left-wing attack by the judiciary on anyone deemed non persona.
How anyone, anyone can be banged up for 30 months for bloody words they might have used on social media is disgusting and an affront to humanity.
Thus is a form of state puritan violence against anyone not approved of in full view and is a dire warning to how crazy society is becoming. It’s childish venom using positions of power to teach people who is the boss.
Yes…and the bloke who goaded a number of irate Muslims to go on the rampage by feeding them lies about “white men throwing acid into the faces of Muslim women”, hasn’t even been interviewed by the police.
I think this chap is Nick Lowles, head of the appalling Hope Not Hate, who, rather interestingly, is involved (along with The Guardian) in a Channel 4 documentary about “THE FAR RIGHT!”
It’s to be screened this Monday and will be an in depth look into antics of these notoriously dangerous subversives.

I recently read a book by Robin Aitken who worked as a reporter and executive at the BBC for 25 years.
His book is called The Noble Liar and in it he mentions the said Hope not Hate organisation.
No prizes for guessing the identity of The Noble Liar.
I highly recommend reading the book.
“Despite Western sanctions and economic pressures from the war in Ukraine, Rosatom has secured contracts globally, including deals with Turkey, China, and India.
The corporation now employs over 400,000 people and is responsible for Russia’s nuclear energy and infrastructure projects, as well as its powerful nuclear arsenal.
Likhachev’s presentation also touched on plans to increase Russia’s reliance on nuclear power, aiming for 25 percent of the country’s energy needs to come from nuclear sources by 2040.”
BBC in crisis and cut backs (again). The Corporation is facing a budget shortfall of £500 million this year. The deficit will be met by cutting posts – about 130 journalists will lose their jobs. The highest profile casualty, however, is HardTalk. And that will cause some consternation.
(quote)
BBC managers are in a hard place right now. Licence-fee revenue is steadily dropping, costs are rising, and audience tastes are changing. But what the BBC decides it can no longer afford tells you much about its priorities, which is why I find the axing of HardTalk…
…
But why cut a serious and valued programme like HARDtalk and spend your money on, for instance, a third-rate US import like the soap-opera Suits? And why go on paying inflated wages to presenters like Gary Lineker (annual salary £1.35 million) or the late, un-lamented Huw Edwards, while slashing the numbers of lowly paid hacks who actually do the work? This speaks to a strangely distorted vision of the Corporation’s priorities.
…
Axing some of the torrent of dross that pours out of the BBC in other directions would, one feels, cause not a moment’s dismay anywhere in the world. One man’s dross is another’s gold, I admit, but does the BBC really have to transmit Mrs Brown’s Boys?
(end quote)
Proof if any were required that the BBC is becoming irrelevant.
And about time, it been obvious to most of us for at least 30 odd years, and HardTalk has to go as it ‘does not fit the BBC prescribed dialogue that the rest of the world is right (being Left Wing) and the right of the world is wrong (being all right wing extremists). As we all are these days, who oppose the hard left we have inherited, by default.
Note: Only x150 BBC journalists will lose their ‘radio’ jobs, they still have x21,000 to go.
And Gary Linekar is still there as ‘Agent provocateur’, or dick as some call him.
Actually – the killing off of ‘hardtalk ‘ on financial grounds doesn’t make sense does it ? After all – it’s two heads talking in a room for an hour ? Not exactly the highest of budgets …. So maybe the bbc can’t get an approved supply of ‘unapproved interviewees ‘ and just has their own kind on to bore the bottom of those few who watch it ( not me )
Day of mourning for the BBC as their favourite Hamas ‘freedom fighter’ is killed.
And I expect a sh*tload more trouble on the streets this w/e as the islamofascist / leftist alliance parade their weekly support for terrorism while Khan’s Cops and Starmer’s Stasi’s look the other way.
BBC making hay over negative remarks about Kemi Badenoch spending time with her kids.
But readers may not have noticed another feminist issue which strangely has not made it to the BBC webshite.
The new education Secretary is one Bridget Philippson.
TTK has also appointed her as minister for equalities and wimmin.
Equalities. Wimmin. The two are mutually exclusive!!!!!
How so?
Because Bridget Philippson has seven people in her ministerial education team.
Six women. One man.
Has the BBC put somber music on radio 2 tonight – following the death of one of its head Islamic fighters ? Bowen et al will be sobbing somewhere along with meesh and countless other BBC Hamas supporters .
We can expect attacks by Islamic terrorists in the west and inside Israel again – let’s hope the funeral makes a good target for the IDF
Mrs V and I run a pub quiz here in Northern France. One of the competing teams are part American and part English Socialist (he’s ex shop stupid or something) any way the American woman, whose name has more vowels than consonants, and most of the consonants are z,w and x turns up with a badge that says Kamala Harris US President 2024. Needless to say treated with contempt and silence.
NV her IQ ain’t great then. A family of Americans I know are lovely people; and I hosted a quiz on one of their visits, it was staggering how little they knew geographically about the world outside the confines of the US. Hadn’t a clue about the capitals in Europe. And there was me thinking the yanks had a great educational system.
A good rumour on X that the body guard for the now dead Islamic Hamas terrorist was a UN employee ( and is hopefully dead too ) – unverified – one for the bbc …
There is an excellent picture of the dead Islamic Hamas terrorist leader circulated on X . Worth framing …. I wonder if he has been cremated and the dust thrown on a landfill yet … hope so …
Btw – there are some objecting to the publication of the picture – I think it is more than apt …
“#10 – Furious father confronts corrupt school board after a boy watched his 8-year-old daughter go to the bathroom.
This is epic.
Mr. Matthews told the Cabarrus County school board members to their faces, “Every single one of you are cowards.”
As the school board members smiled during his testimony, Mr. Matthews called them out as the hypocrites that they are.
He suggested that if they’re going to smile while his 8-year-old daughter complains about boys watching her go to the bathroom, then they should experience the same thing and see how they feel about that.
“Each of you ladies, I want you to invite your husbands. Let’s go to the bathroom. And I want them to watch me watch you use the bathroom. And let’s see if they get mad.”
The crowd erupted in applause after he single-handedly schooled the entire school board. This was a glorious moment. Kudos to this father.
Jesus Christ : just look at what Bowen has written as an epitaph for this terrorist scum:
‘His death is a serious blow for Hamas, the organisation he turned into a fighting force that inflicted the biggest defeat on the state of Israel in its history.’
It was not a ‘defeat’ Bowen you cretin. It was a terrorist massacre of civilians. You can’t defend against something like that. The only solution is to take out the terrorists before they can launch their attack.
Something Israel is now doing very well – despite the best efforts of the BBC abusing their immense power to try and infer Israel are the bad guys here and put pressure on them to stop.
And later he writes:
‘He was asked whether the death of Sinwar would affect Hamas.
“I hope not, God willing. Let me explain: Hamas is not just Sinwar… It’s the cause of a people.”‘
Try telling that to all those human shields they use who have been blown to pieces Bowen.
Why are the BBC giving a soapbox like that to officially designated terrorists ?.
Keep going IDF. You have my full support to do this dirty job you have been given.
BBC/Bowen: you are a complete disgrace to every decent ethic you are supposed to have as journalists.
Nowhere on the BBC of course. It might filter through once the shock of the headline passes and people lose interest.
More evidence that the UN are complicit in Hamas activities. Add it to all the evidence from the ‘peacekeepers’ in Lebanon who are also 100% complicit with Hezbollah.
THAT is the big news here. The UN are corrupt to the core. Why is nobody making a big deal about it ?. The only answer I can come up with is ‘because there is no alternative’.

If this turns out to be true Israel; should make the maximum out of it – and banish the UN from the ‘theatre ‘ because it is an enemy player ….. and screw the ‘ceasefire ‘ the woke west wants

Jailing Lucy Connolly for 31 months, Judge Melbourne Inman said, "It is a strength of our society that it is both diverse and inclusive." So even judges are resorting to trotting out this political (and subjective) statement. It's like a nervous tic. https://t.co/nOMD8MgkQW
I was expecting meesh to sound sad and bitter about the death of one of her pin up boys … but instead she was on grief leave getting a bit of counselling for her loss . They’ll be doing special ‘prayers ‘ down at the mosque today … who is the next on the target list …?
The bbc doesn’t – of course – refer to this monster as a Muslim terrorist even though he is a Muslim terrorist ….
How do you explain this ? The false president – Biden – is in Germany meeting his puppets – Schulz macron starmer to say ‘goodbye ‘. Yet Biden is suffering from dementia and is unfit to be president . So presumably the real discussion will be with Obama as usual . Biden has always been nothing more than a glove puppet – but not in the BBC script ..
“Unprincipled Leftie lawyers, Keir and Kamala are joined at the hip – and the prospect of Starmala running the Free World is truly terrifying.
A complete and utter lawyer, a former prosecutor turned politician, vacuous and unprincipled, incapable of giving a straight answer and anxious to cover up a far-Left past.
Sounds familiar?
Yes, I could be describing our Prime Minister, Keir Starmer. But the same applies to Kamala Harris, the woman who may be the next President of the United States.
The parallels don’t end there. Both are soft on illegal immigration, reluctant to take responsibility for anything and eager to blame their opponents for their own shortcomings.
In Starmer Land, everything from the small boats crisis to the imaginary ‘black hole’ in the nation’s finances is the fault of the wicked Tories. Even the debilitating effects of the Covid lockdown, which Starmer enthusiastically supported and complained that it didn’t last long enough, are laid at the door of the previous Government.
And to be fair, he has a point. The Conservatives were in power for 14 years.
Kamala Harris has no such excuse. She’s been Joe Biden’s Vice-President for the past three-and-a-half years and up until now boasted that she was in the room when every key decision was made.
Last week she maintained there was nothing she would have done differently had she been in charge. Yet she still manages to blame all the nation’s current problems on Donald Trump.
Eight million illegal immigrants crossing the Southern border since the Biden administration came into office?
Trump.
Soaring inflation?
Trump.
The rising price of gas and electricity?
Trump.
Just as Starmer opposed every Tory attempt to tackle illegal immigration and ripped up the admittedly flawed Rwanda scheme on his first day as PM, so Harris is more than culpable over America’s mounting migration crisis.
She was appointed ‘border tsar’ by Biden, tasked with tackling the flood of foreign nationals entering the US via Mexico, although she now flatly denies it.
She halted construction of Trump’s border wall. She scrapped the former President’s insistence that all asylum applicants remain in Mexico until their cases can be heard.
Harris introduced a ‘catch and release’ system which freed migrants to disappear, pending a court hearing several years in the future, which most have no intention of attending.
Some have gone on to commit crimes including rape and murder.”

Rushdie alluf – is apparently the bbc Gaza correspondent – but for some reason he is based in turkey – our Justin had a chat with him . He says he’s been trying to get hold of Hamas personal but no one is answering the phone – maybe they are frightened they’ll blow up .
Anyway Rushdie – who sounds like a Hamas spokesman – reckons that the new leader will be the brother of the dead Hamas leader – Mohammed – there’s a surprise … be good if Israel can get him …
“Under Biden/Harris, support for Israel has not been unequivocal. Only this week the administration warned that arms supplies might be halted unless Israel increases humanitarian aid to Gaza.
Britain, too, under Labour has stopped exporting some weapons parts to Israel, citing ‘international law’. Harris and Starmer are both sticklers for ‘following the law’ when it suits them.
Starmer has sent Foreign Secretary David Lammy to Beijing to suck up to the Chinese, who already pose a serious threat to our national security. As part of his ‘reset’ of relations with the EU, he is also facing a demand to commit British troops to a European defence force, which would undermine Nato.
If Harris wins in November, the two closest transatlantic allies will be run by the most Left-wing leaders in recent memory, joined ideologically at the hip – a kind of Thatcher/Reagan axis in reverse.
While half of America and most of Europe recoils at the thought of a second, unpredictable Trump term, at least there were no new wars on his watch, as the West’s enemies in Moscow, Tehran and Beijing were worried about how he would react to aggression.
He’s almost certainly right to claim that Putin wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine, nor Iran started a war on Israel.
On the other hand, the prospect of these two complete and utter lawyers – let’s call them Starmala – running the Free World and charged with keeping us safe is truly terrifying.”
Is there a typo? I think the correct name is Brown Willie.
And a sequel should be called “Brown Willie in Heels-Up Harris”. Or “Brown’s Willy up Harris” for short. The jokes just write themselves.
Vulgar? You bet, as befits the subject.
tomo, the location is very close to Porton Down. It gives me a bit of confidence that the services are thinking laterally. It gives me no confidence if they injected the patient from the wrong bottle.
Last night GB held ( ‘hosted ‘Ugh ) a debate between the 2 candidates to lead the dead blue party . But specky asked another specky why the BBC wasn’t holding a debate .
It seems the BBC wanted to selection the question time special rather than limit it to blue party members . One of the candidates – the dark one – refused .
So the bbc won’t be bussing in the usual chippy Marxists – queers – Muslims and other trash used for QT . No loss . Bite Reform

Escort girls, the women’s game and total inebriation edition
On a morning when the gynaeceum that is BBC news staff shake up their online print press line-up by inexplicably promoting the habitual ‘and finally’ candidate, the jokey blokey Daily Star, to mid-table respectability – I say ‘calm down dears’
Top clubs in women’s football want to allow fans to drink beer while watching matches. Under present rules no alcohol can be consumed in view of the pitch (Times) – frankly, this commentator would need to be tanked up in order to endure the laughable tedium of the women’s game.
Our female-orientated media fires right back (under the pretentious heading Society) in the junior Guardian that is the ‘i’: Tracy Emin is right, men do hit the skids after 40
Or, sometimes, even earlier than that: The One Direction star, 31, fell from a hotel balcolny in Argentina after a suspected booze and drugs binge (Mirror)
“Don’t Cry for Me Argentina” is a song recorded by Julie Covington for the 1976 concept album Evita, later included in the 1978 musical of the same name. The song was written and composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice (Thank you Wiki) – I do like to include a little something for the teenagers.
Our perpetually heart-on-the-sleeve Mirror – home to foodbank nurse reports and Middle East ceasefire pleas (plus the odd Sorry.. we were hoaxed) – neatly sums up for us the plethora of tear-jerking tabloid reports: Outpouring of grief for tormented One Direction star as final hours probed
And before Mr Fedup does his from the high bench 1959 era Old Bailey judge act “One Direction?”
A popular beat combo, M’lud.
Great sympathy to family and friends of course – but as the red tops and our BBC do those touching obsequies our modern media terms ‘tributes’: ‘I was a Directioner – here’s what Liam Payne and the band meant to me’ (BBC) – under the pretentious header Culture mind you – it is left to the Daily Mail to fill in the grubby details…
Record label dumped Liam before fatal drugs binge… had been so inebriated he did not even try to protect himself… Photos emerged today of his trashed hotel room littered with drugs… a smashed TV, white powder and tin foil… allegedly enjoyed the company of two escort girls the previous night (Mail)
I don’t know about the white powder but one does enjoy donning a tin foil hat on occasion. Remember folks it’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true. Your very own Inspector Poirot then considers the smashed TV and complete inebriation and concludes… women’s football!
But seriously, talk about going out with a bang not a whimper. Not quite what Esther Rantzen has in mind for us.
Speaking of escort girls… sometimes these segueways require a little helping along…
Our mate Matt in the Telegraph sketches a pair of motorcycle cops: “A police escort for the Prime Minister? Have you cleared this with Taylor Swift’s mother?”
To politics and taking it international: Labour sends 100 party staff to help Democrats win US election (Telegraph) – foreign interference anyone? Kamala is going to need more than that 20% turn out for Labour that Starmer’s campaign machine achieved.
A little bird tells me (in fact it was the right-leaning Lotus Eaters show on YouTube) that the US corporate media were running desperate”defense” for their Kamala yesterday after her car crash interview with Fox News – the approved descriptor in every news outlet headline across the board was “Testy”
Our BBC playing the role of taxpayer-funded local adjuct to the Democrat-leaning US corporate media refines the word of the day for our local consumption to “combative”
Four takeaways from Harris’s combative first Fox interview (BBC)
Just an observation from the UK but 60% of undergraduates are female and females live 4 or 5 years longer. Is that sexism or a function of the differences between male and female?
What was fascinating in that discussion was the theme of ‘societal norms’ v intellectualism. For the sake of western society intellectualism needs to succeed. If it does not then the values of western society will be lost very quickly.

Mr Justice Harman probably set the gold standard for magisterial aloofness in 1990, when he appeared to have no idea who Paul Gascoigne was.
Gazza, then at the height of his post Italia ’90 fame, was suing Penguin Books for publishing an “unauthorised biography”.
The footballer’s lawyer Michael Silverleaf began his submission by saying: “Mr Gascoigne is a very well-known footballer.”
“Rugby or Association?” asked the judge, with impeccable comic timing.
Later, during evidence, Justice Harman again interrupted: “Isn’t there an operetta called La Gazza Ladra?”
“I could not say, my lord,” replied Mr Silverleaf.
When Judge Harman asked, “Do you think Mr Gascoigne is more famous now than the Duke of Wellington was in 1815?”, Mr Silverleaf replied: “I have to say I think it possible.”
In 1999, Judge Francis Appleby stopped a Teletubby theft case and asked: “What is that?”
A year earlier, Mr Justice Popplewell interrupted proceedings in a High Court libel trial to ask, ”What is Linford Christie’s lunchbox?”
The athlete himself – who had used the term in an attack on media speculation that he was a drugs cheat – had to explain, “They are making a reference to my genitals, your honour.”
How are you doing ‘smashing the gangs’. Hope it’s all going well. I noticed another boat sunk last night, so far a body of a baby recovered. Still with you, Lame-y, Supa-Cooper on the job we have nothing to worry about.

Did you and the Mrs each wear your free new clothes.
By the way, I noticed that the media are saying that you will be putting up National Insurances and some other taxes which is obviously a lie as you categorically answered many more than 10 times that it would not happen.

“The blunder was broadcast live on iPlayer at 8pm, and soon after, the official BBCQT account rushed to clean up the mess, scrubbing the part where Bruce tried to justify Labour’s expected tax rise. In a post on X, they sheepishly admitted:”

Bruce wrongly claimed that their manifesto didn’t use the phrase “working people” in reference to national insurance.
The BBC gets a dishonourable mention on the Jihad Watch site:
“Eight In Ten Americans Support Israel Over Hamas”
“Despite the best efforts of The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR, the BBC (…) to poison our minds against Israel as it is engaged in a seven-front war for its very survival, it turns out that the American public has not been swayed. The latest Harvard-Harris poll reveals that more than 8 out of 10 Americans support Israel over Hamas, and want it to achieve its stated war aim in Gaza — to destroy Hamas as a military force.”
Putin sending 100 of his staff to help Trump campaign and win…..I imagine the BBC would be all over that and headlining it as ‘electoral interference’.
However when Labour planned to send 100 staff to help Harris?
Nothing.
I’d have thought that chucking a load of ‘council-trained’ red apparatchiks over the pond to continue a mass-gibber-cackle with O’Bamalam’s ridiculous new glove-puppet Kremola, will be a godsend for the President Elect, Donald Trump!
All they need now is for Lurchy, Slopes, Kattymandu, and the awful Mitless to continue their boring and ineffective wibble-fest as well, and the farce will be even funnier than a Brian Rix Whitehall production!
A plug for the show “People Fixing the World” with host Myra Anubi, in which she talked about barbershops in Kenya tackling men’s mental health problems by playing nice music. The sort of childish transnational ‘solution’ to problems that the BBC so love. From my bit of London a proliferation of barbershops on the streets and young black media types overseeing men’s thinking has been happening for a while now with very mixed results. Might as well top myself now.

Even the entirely democratic call for boycotts, divestment and sanctions is smeared as antisemitism.
Why should Israel have negotiated with Hamas on Oct. 8? Because they have blocked the path for peace in favour of land grabs, apartheid, and occupation. Israel shares responsibility for October 7th – when you make peaceful change impossible, violence is inevitable.”

“This was not about self defence.. It was about using the horrific events of October 7th as an excuse to ethnically cleanse parts of Gaza.. To destroy the Palestinian population in Gaza.. And redraw the regional map so Israel comes out on top”
Fiona Bruce, “What would Israel defending itself look like if it hadn’t gone too far?”
Ash Sarkar, “The only way forward is a negotiated settlement.. There were ceasefire and hostage release on the table as far back as October last year”
“Part of the reason why Netanyahu kept rejecting it is because he thought he could push his path further.. He has endangered Israelis.. The hostages in Gaza”

Ash Sarkar, “Yes”
Fiona Bruce, “The day after the attack?”

Every time we hear the amount a pensioner gets it’s the new pension they always use which only a minority get and even then, only a few of them get the full new pension.
It would make far more sense if they told us the sums using the old pension which the vast majority get and can relate to.
They can then put a small note at the very end of the article saying how those on the new pension would be affected just as they currently do for all those on the old pension.
Of course, they will not do this. They want to fool people into thinking the pension is far more than it really is.
By the way. Liam Payne. Never heard of him.

Here’s a youngish woman who has lost an infant son due, I’m told, to the incompetence of our beloved NHS. She’s a married woman with another child and no criminal record. What she Tweeted was spontaneous and quickly removed, instantly regretted and apologised for.
Now let’s look at that darling of the Beeb and serial paedo, Huw Edwards. What he was up to went on for years. He groomed a young lad and downloaded some of the vilest images of child abuse it’s possible to imagine. These apparently include images of penetration with kiddies under 7 years of age. Huw received a 6 month suspended sentence and has been placed on the sex offenders register. I think he’s also got to do a spot of community service. My heart bleeds…
Lucy Connolly, by way of mitigating circumstances, had lost an infant child. I can’t imagine anything worse…She has no previous criminal record. Until now she hasn’t put a foot wrong.
Huw Edwards’ mitigating excuses amounted to being pissed off because he failed to get into Oxford University.
One of them goes to prison, the other goes home.
Guess which…

The case against the Conservative councillors wife jailed for “racial” social posts is just bloody staggering to me.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cp3wkzgpjxvo
It seems that any pretence of sanity by the courts has vanished to be replaced by a vindictive left-wing attack by the judiciary on anyone deemed non persona.
How anyone, anyone can be banged up for 30 months for bloody words they might have used on social media is disgusting and an affront to humanity.
Thus is a form of state puritan violence against anyone not approved of in full view and is a dire warning to how crazy society is becoming. It’s childish venom using positions of power to teach people who is the boss.
It WILL end in tears!

I think this chap is Nick Lowles, head of the appalling Hope Not Hate, who, rather interestingly, is involved (along with The Guardian) in a Channel 4 documentary about “THE FAR RIGHT!”

I recently read a book by Robin Aitken who worked as a reporter and executive at the BBC for 25 years.
His book is called The Noble Liar and in it he mentions the said Hope not Hate organisation.
No prizes for guessing the identity of The Noble Liar.

BBC in crisis and cut backs (again). The Corporation is facing a budget shortfall of £500 million this year. The deficit will be met by cutting posts – about 130 journalists will lose their jobs. The highest profile casualty, however, is HardTalk. And that will cause some consternation.
(quote)
BBC managers are in a hard place right now. Licence-fee revenue is steadily dropping, costs are rising, and audience tastes are changing. But what the BBC decides it can no longer afford tells you much about its priorities, which is why I find the axing of HardTalk…
…
But why cut a serious and valued programme like HARDtalk and spend your money on, for instance, a third-rate US import like the soap-opera Suits? And why go on paying inflated wages to presenters like Gary Lineker (annual salary £1.35 million) or the late, un-lamented Huw Edwards, while slashing the numbers of lowly paid hacks who actually do the work? This speaks to a strangely distorted vision of the Corporation’s priorities.
…
Axing some of the torrent of dross that pours out of the BBC in other directions would, one feels, cause not a moment’s dismay anywhere in the world. One man’s dross is another’s gold, I admit, but does the BBC really have to transmit Mrs Brown’s Boys?
(end quote)
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/0/bbc-cuts-hard-talk/
Proof if any were required that the BBC is becoming irrelevant.
And about time, it been obvious to most of us for at least 30 odd years, and HardTalk has to go as it ‘does not fit the BBC prescribed dialogue that the rest of the world is right (being Left Wing) and the right of the world is wrong (being all right wing extremists). As we all are these days, who oppose the hard left we have inherited, by default.
Note: Only x150 BBC journalists will lose their ‘radio’ jobs, they still have x21,000 to go.
And Gary Linekar is still there as ‘Agent provocateur’, or dick as some call him.

“#10 – Furious father confronts corrupt school board after a boy watched his 8-year-old daughter go to the bathroom.
This is epic.
Mr. Matthews told the Cabarrus County school board members to their faces, “Every single one of you are cowards.”
As the school board members smiled during his testimony, Mr. Matthews called them out as the hypocrites that they are.
He suggested that if they’re going to smile while his 8-year-old daughter complains about boys watching her go to the bathroom, then they should experience the same thing and see how they feel about that.
“Each of you ladies, I want you to invite your husbands. Let’s go to the bathroom. And I want them to watch me watch you use the bathroom. And let’s see if they get mad.”
The crowd erupted in applause after he single-handedly schooled the entire school board. This was a glorious moment. Kudos to this father.

Bowen: Sinwar’s death is serious blow to Hamas, but not the end of the war
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cm24q3204y3o
Jesus Christ : just look at what Bowen has written as an epitaph for this terrorist scum:
‘His death is a serious blow for Hamas, the organisation he turned into a fighting force that inflicted the biggest defeat on the state of Israel in its history.’
It was not a ‘defeat’ Bowen you cretin. It was a terrorist massacre of civilians. You can’t defend against something like that. The only solution is to take out the terrorists before they can launch their attack.
Something Israel is now doing very well – despite the best efforts of the BBC abusing their immense power to try and infer Israel are the bad guys here and put pressure on them to stop.
And later he writes:
‘He was asked whether the death of Sinwar would affect Hamas.
“I hope not, God willing. Let me explain: Hamas is not just Sinwar… It’s the cause of a people.”‘
Try telling that to all those human shields they use who have been blown to pieces Bowen.
Why are the BBC giving a soapbox like that to officially designated terrorists ?.
Keep going IDF. You have my full support to do this dirty job you have been given.
BBC/Bowen: you are a complete disgrace to every decent ethic you are supposed to have as journalists.

Nowhere on the BBC of course. It might filter through once the shock of the headline passes and people lose interest.
More evidence that the UN are complicit in Hamas activities. Add it to all the evidence from the ‘peacekeepers’ in Lebanon who are also 100% complicit with Hezbollah.
THAT is the big news here. The UN are corrupt to the core. Why is nobody making a big deal about it ?. The only answer I can come up with is ‘because there is no alternative’.
Which is not good enough IMHO.

Anyone else see the parallels here ?
“Unprincipled Leftie lawyers, Keir and Kamala are joined at the hip – and the prospect of Starmala running the Free World is truly terrifying.
A complete and utter lawyer, a former prosecutor turned politician, vacuous and unprincipled, incapable of giving a straight answer and anxious to cover up a far-Left past.
Sounds familiar?
Yes, I could be describing our Prime Minister, Keir Starmer. But the same applies to Kamala Harris, the woman who may be the next President of the United States.
The parallels don’t end there. Both are soft on illegal immigration, reluctant to take responsibility for anything and eager to blame their opponents for their own shortcomings.
In Starmer Land, everything from the small boats crisis to the imaginary ‘black hole’ in the nation’s finances is the fault of the wicked Tories. Even the debilitating effects of the Covid lockdown, which Starmer enthusiastically supported and complained that it didn’t last long enough, are laid at the door of the previous Government.
And to be fair, he has a point. The Conservatives were in power for 14 years.
Kamala Harris has no such excuse. She’s been Joe Biden’s Vice-President for the past three-and-a-half years and up until now boasted that she was in the room when every key decision was made.
Last week she maintained there was nothing she would have done differently had she been in charge. Yet she still manages to blame all the nation’s current problems on Donald Trump.
Eight million illegal immigrants crossing the Southern border since the Biden administration came into office?
Trump.
Soaring inflation?
Trump.
The rising price of gas and electricity?
Trump.
Just as Starmer opposed every Tory attempt to tackle illegal immigration and ripped up the admittedly flawed Rwanda scheme on his first day as PM, so Harris is more than culpable over America’s mounting migration crisis.
She was appointed ‘border tsar’ by Biden, tasked with tackling the flood of foreign nationals entering the US via Mexico, although she now flatly denies it.
She halted construction of Trump’s border wall. She scrapped the former President’s insistence that all asylum applicants remain in Mexico until their cases can be heard.
Harris introduced a ‘catch and release’ system which freed migrants to disappear, pending a court hearing several years in the future, which most have no intention of attending.
Some have gone on to commit crimes including rape and murder.”

“Under Biden/Harris, support for Israel has not been unequivocal. Only this week the administration warned that arms supplies might be halted unless Israel increases humanitarian aid to Gaza.
Britain, too, under Labour has stopped exporting some weapons parts to Israel, citing ‘international law’. Harris and Starmer are both sticklers for ‘following the law’ when it suits them.
Starmer has sent Foreign Secretary David Lammy to Beijing to suck up to the Chinese, who already pose a serious threat to our national security. As part of his ‘reset’ of relations with the EU, he is also facing a demand to commit British troops to a European defence force, which would undermine Nato.
If Harris wins in November, the two closest transatlantic allies will be run by the most Left-wing leaders in recent memory, joined ideologically at the hip – a kind of Thatcher/Reagan axis in reverse.
While half of America and most of Europe recoils at the thought of a second, unpredictable Trump term, at least there were no new wars on his watch, as the West’s enemies in Moscow, Tehran and Beijing were worried about how he would react to aggression.
He’s almost certainly right to claim that Putin wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine, nor Iran started a war on Israel.
On the other hand, the prospect of these two complete and utter lawyers – let’s call them Starmala – running the Free World and charged with keeping us safe is truly terrifying.”

Escort girls, the women’s game and total inebriation edition
On a morning when the gynaeceum that is BBC news staff shake up their online print press line-up by inexplicably promoting the habitual ‘and finally’ candidate, the jokey blokey Daily Star, to mid-table respectability – I say ‘calm down dears’
Top clubs in women’s football want to allow fans to drink beer while watching matches. Under present rules no alcohol can be consumed in view of the pitch (Times) – frankly, this commentator would need to be tanked up in order to endure the laughable tedium of the women’s game.
Our female-orientated media fires right back (under the pretentious heading Society) in the junior Guardian that is the ‘i’: Tracy Emin is right, men do hit the skids after 40
Or, sometimes, even earlier than that: The One Direction star, 31, fell from a hotel balcolny in Argentina after a suspected booze and drugs binge (Mirror)
“Don’t Cry for Me Argentina” is a song recorded by Julie Covington for the 1976 concept album Evita, later included in the 1978 musical of the same name. The song was written and composed by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice (Thank you Wiki) – I do like to include a little something for the teenagers.
Our perpetually heart-on-the-sleeve Mirror – home to foodbank nurse reports and Middle East ceasefire pleas (plus the odd Sorry.. we were hoaxed) – neatly sums up for us the plethora of tear-jerking tabloid reports: Outpouring of grief for tormented One Direction star as final hours probed
And before Mr Fedup does his from the high bench 1959 era Old Bailey judge act “One Direction?”
A popular beat combo, M’lud.
Great sympathy to family and friends of course – but as the red tops and our BBC do those touching obsequies our modern media terms ‘tributes’: ‘I was a Directioner – here’s what Liam Payne and the band meant to me’ (BBC) – under the pretentious header Culture mind you – it is left to the Daily Mail to fill in the grubby details…
Record label dumped Liam before fatal drugs binge… had been so inebriated he did not even try to protect himself… Photos emerged today of his trashed hotel room littered with drugs… a smashed TV, white powder and tin foil… allegedly enjoyed the company of two escort girls the previous night (Mail)
I don’t know about the white powder but one does enjoy donning a tin foil hat on occasion. Remember folks it’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true. Your very own Inspector Poirot then considers the smashed TV and complete inebriation and concludes… women’s football!
But seriously, talk about going out with a bang not a whimper. Not quite what Esther Rantzen has in mind for us.
Speaking of escort girls… sometimes these segueways require a little helping along…
Our mate Matt in the Telegraph sketches a pair of motorcycle cops: “A police escort for the Prime Minister? Have you cleared this with Taylor Swift’s mother?”
To politics and taking it international: Labour sends 100 party staff to help Democrats win US election (Telegraph) – foreign interference anyone? Kamala is going to need more than that 20% turn out for Labour that Starmer’s campaign machine achieved.
A little bird tells me (in fact it was the right-leaning Lotus Eaters show on YouTube) that the US corporate media were running desperate”defense” for their Kamala yesterday after her car crash interview with Fox News – the approved descriptor in every news outlet headline across the board was “Testy”
Our BBC playing the role of taxpayer-funded local adjuct to the Democrat-leaning US corporate media refines the word of the day for our local consumption to “combative”

Mr Justice Harman probably set the gold standard for magisterial aloofness in 1990, when he appeared to have no idea who Paul Gascoigne was.
Gazza, then at the height of his post Italia ’90 fame, was suing Penguin Books for publishing an “unauthorised biography”.
The footballer’s lawyer Michael Silverleaf began his submission by saying: “Mr Gascoigne is a very well-known footballer.”
“Rugby or Association?” asked the judge, with impeccable comic timing.
Later, during evidence, Justice Harman again interrupted: “Isn’t there an operetta called La Gazza Ladra?”
“I could not say, my lord,” replied Mr Silverleaf.
When Judge Harman asked, “Do you think Mr Gascoigne is more famous now than the Duke of Wellington was in 1815?”, Mr Silverleaf replied: “I have to say I think it possible.”

By the way, I noticed that the media are saying that you will be putting up National Insurances and some other taxes which is obviously a lie as you categorically answered many more than 10 times that it would not happen.
Hope you enjoy the football on Saturday.

Incidentally, who’s paying for their little outing to America?
Us?

I’d have thought that chucking a load of ‘council-trained’ red apparatchiks over the pond to continue a mass-gibber-cackle with O’Bamalam’s ridiculous new glove-puppet Kremola, will be a godsend for the President Elect, Donald Trump!
All they need now is for Lurchy, Slopes, Kattymandu, and the awful Mitless to continue their boring and ineffective wibble-fest as well, and the farce will be even funnier than a Brian Rix Whitehall production!

All to play for now. Maybe the BBC can send Huw with the Labour team?

R5 just now —
A plug for the show “People Fixing the World” with host Myra Anubi, in which she talked about barbershops in Kenya tackling men’s mental health problems by playing nice music. The sort of childish transnational ‘solution’ to problems that the BBC so love. From my bit of London a proliferation of barbershops on the streets and young black media types overseeing men’s thinking has been happening for a while now with very mixed results. Might as well top myself now.

Asking for a fix in one of my local barbershops brings a different outcome, judging by all the blacked out Mercedes on the street.

From Oz —
“Evidence [shows] levels of synthetic DNA contamination [is] up to 145 times higher [than] the TGA’s own safety limits […] Independent studies now in Canada, Germany and the US have all confirmed similar levels of contamination.”
BBC still stick to the line that altered DNA from the injections is a conspiracy theory:

That is a really good video thanks for posting. I watched in horror as the Aus politicians did a stasi crackdown on their own population. Let us hope that this local council meeting is the beginning of the pushback. I hope the UK gov takes note.
I am still trying to find out the Ct cycle Threshold my local Lighthouse lab used for their PCR tests. Getting on for 2 years and still no answer.
Maybe the 77 brigade could help since they love spying on UK citizens?

“The PLO gave up armed struggle. What did they get for it? More Palestinian land being stolen by illegal settlements. ”
So funny
All of a sudden, muzzies are against illegal immigration…but only when it’s Jewish people

“I didn’t get to finish my point about The Great March of Return, so I will here.
In 2018, when Palestinians peacefully marched to the border fence in Gaza, they were gunned down. More than 200 people died.
The PLO gave up armed struggle. What did they get for it? More Palestinian land being stolen by illegal settlements.
Even the entirely democratic call for boycotts, divestment and sanctions is smeared as antisemitism.
Why should Israel have negotiated with Hamas on Oct. 8? Because they have blocked the path for peace in favour of land grabs, apartheid, and occupation. Israel shares responsibility for October 7th – when you make peaceful change impossible, violence is inevitable.”

“40,000 people are dead.. At least 16,000 children.. A UN report says Israel could be guilty of the crime of extermination.. Israel is facing accusations of genocide at the ICJ.. The ICC found Israel is holding apartheid in the West Bank”
“This was not about self defence.. It was about using the horrific events of October 7th as an excuse to ethnically cleanse parts of Gaza.. To destroy the Palestinian population in Gaza.. And redraw the regional map so Israel comes out on top”
Fiona Bruce, “What would Israel defending itself look like if it hadn’t gone too far?”
Ash Sarkar, “The only way forward is a negotiated settlement.. There were ceasefire and hostage release on the table as far back as October last year”
“Part of the reason why Netanyahu kept rejecting it is because he thought he could push his path further.. He has endangered Israelis.. The hostages in Gaza”
Fiona Bruce, “What should Israel have done on the 8th of October?”
Ash Sarkar, “They should have negotiated to get the hostages back”
Fiona Bruce, “What, negotiate with Hamas?”
Ash Sarkar, “Yes”
Fiona Bruce, “The day after the attack?”
Ash Sarkar, “Yes, and I’ll tell you why… I can hear you laughing in the background.. Nothing that the Palestinians have done has advanced their cause.. The peaceful Great March of Return a few years ago, Israeli forces opened fire and killed 200 people”
Fiona Bruce, “I hear what you’re saying, we’ve talked about the war, but this is not a question that has been answered”
It’s a shame Ash Sarkar was cut off and couldn’t continue to explain her point fully

Every time we hear the amount a pensioner gets it’s the new pension they always use which only a minority get and even then, only a few of them get the full new pension.
It would make far more sense if they told us the sums using the old pension which the vast majority get and can relate to.
They can then put a small note at the very end of the article saying how those on the new pension would be affected just as they currently do for all those on the old pension.
Of course, they will not do this. They want to fool people into thinking the pension is far more than it really is.
By the way. Liam Payne. Never heard of him.
