A concise, damning and accurate summary of the budget from the Mail…
‘In the most Left-wing Budget for decades, the Chancellor pushed taxes to their highest level in history and relaxed government borrowing rules to finance a massive spending spree. But in a blow to Ms Reeves, the Office for Budget Responsibility last night cut its forecast for economic growth in the later years of this decade, making a mockery of her ambition to be ‘the most pro-growth Chancellor in history’. And in a warning to millions of ‘working people’, the economic watchdog predicted that the Chancellor’s Budget measures would fuel inflation, push up mortgage rates and squeeze wages. In a bleak finding, the OBR said average real household disposable incomes would be around £300 lower per person as a result of the Budget. ‘
The BBC itself seems very positive about it pushing Labour’s narrative in justification of its massive tax grab and borrowing splurge…
‘This Budget will “wipe the slate clean on the fiscal fiction” of the previous government, sources suggest to me. ‘
Curiously not a whisper that Labour lied to us on an industrial scale during the election and essentially ‘stole’ the election on that lie that suggested we wouldn’t suffer any extra taxation and in fact would be hundreds of pounds better off.
Where is the ‘fact-checking’? There came none. Isabel Oakeshott asks…..
‘Will BBC Verify call Labour out for their lies? Don’t hold your breath’
‘n a blizzard of claim and counterclaim, thank goodness for brilliantly qualified, lavishly funded truth seekers. As voters try to make sense of a momentous Budget, where better to turn than BBC Verify, which employs some 60 specialist journalists to separate fact from fiction?
But on today’s historic Budget? At the time of writing, absolutely nada post-Budget.
It is hard to imagine more fertile territory for forensic examination than Rachel Reeves’s historic statement. After all, her plans have sweeping implications for every business and every household – in other words, everyone who pays for the BBC.
Her £40 billion tax heist was announced with all sorts of murky justifications – providing BBC Verify’s experts with plenty to get stuck into. That infamous “£22bn black hole in the public finances” would be an obvious place to start.
Until now, the Treasury was unable to say precisely how she had reached that figure, prompting accusations that the figure was plucked from thin air. Finally, the Chancellor has published what she called a “line by line breakdown.” With its ample resources, BBC Verify should be crawling all of it. Yet the nation awaits. ‘
The normal procedure is for the BBC, should they in actually do a ‘fact-check’, is to announce that there may be some questions about some statements but on the whole they are very minor and the broad sweep is generally accurate and thus ‘nothing to see here’….whilst of course presenting a very hostile portrayal of the otherside’s claims be they Tories or Brexiteers.

“Energy suppliers can hide their use of ‘dirty’ fuels behind an eco-friendly banner of ‘renewable’
First, the small segmentation of fuel types in the FMD (fossil fuel, nuclear and renewable) enables suppliers to hide the truth about their energy supply.
How?
Because the term ‘renewable’ in the context of the FMD does not necessarily mean non-polluting, sustainable or carbon neutral.
As well as clean sources such as wind, solar and hydro power, ‘renewable’ in the FMD constitutes energy from a range of ‘brown’ sources, too. These include biomass, landfill gas and sewage gas.
In fact, biomass creates just as much CO2 as burning coal. Plus, biomass pellets are usually shipped in from outside the UK – as far away as in North and South America.
When you consider the carbon footprint of biomass pellets, that ‘so called’ green energy starts to become an awful lot browner.
Energy suppliers can buy cheap renewable energy certificates to cover up their use of fossil fuels. But they do not need to declare this in the FMD
Second, energy suppliers can buy fossil fuel electricity from the wholesale market or generate it themselves, combine it with a renewable energy certificate – a Renewable Energy Guarantee of Origin (REGO) or an European Guarantee of Origin (GO) – and legally claim that fuel is 100% renewable.
This is called greenwashing.
How can this happen?
REGO and European GO certificates can be sold separately from the power.
In essence, a supplier could source all of its energy from fossil fuel sources, then buy the equivalent volume of REGOs and claim they only sell renewable energy.
Energy suppliers are required to declare the makeup of their energy in the FMD. But they are not required to provide detailed information about the source of their power and their use of REGOs and European GOs.”

The BBC – a former news broadcaster, now islamist propaganda outlet – can’t even bother to cover the story.
Because Jews and conservatives are kicking up a stink, the Islamic Broadcasting Corporation might eventually get round to it, though no doubt twisting and minimising the story.

Further to post above regarding so called “green energy”
” The dirty secret behind premium ‘green’ energy deals. Millions of households are being ‘duped’ into believing their electricity is clean, experts say.
Britain’s biggest energy suppliers are refusing to stop buying controversial certificates that allow them to sell tariffs as “100pc green” when they are not.
“Green” energy tariffs have typically come at a premium and have been up to £60 more expensive than a standard deal. About 9m households had “green” energy deals in 2021.
But industry experts say that households are being “duped” into thinking their electricity is clean because suppliers can buy certificates that allow them to market tariffs as sustainable.
Energy suppliers can buy certificates, known as Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin or “Regos”, from green energy generators – and still provide their own customers with power generated from fossil fuels.
Suppliers are facing increasing pressure to ditch the practice and it is understood that a regulatory review into greenwashing in the sector could be restarted later this year. Meanwhile, Britain’s major energy companies have spent nearly £2bn on the certificates over the past five years.
Archie Lasseter, the head of sustainability at Utilita, said: “The problem is industry wide. Almost all suppliers are offering tariffs purporting to be ‘100pc renewable’ or ‘zero-carbon’ electricity. “Households on these energy tariffs have been duped into thinking the energy they use is 100pc renewable when it’s not.
“It’s unbelievable that suppliers have been willing to do it for so long, but even worse, the regulator and the Government have simply watched on and done nothing.”
Last month Ovo Energy said it would stop buying Regos, because they allow suppliers to “greenwash” their environmental credentials without boosting the supply of renewable energy.
Telegraph Money approached all of the major energy suppliers, but not one would commit to stop the use of Regos.
Regulator Ofgem issues the certificates to energy generators, which can include wind and solar farms, who then sell them on to suppliers, without the green energy created.”

So, not renewable, as EON admit below, when fossil fuel prices rise, the “renewable energy” has to rise, funny that, unless of course the “renewable energy” is…wait for it, FOSSIL FUEL.
“Although E.ON Next electricity is backed by 100% renewable sources (through E.ON’s renewable generation assets, agreements with UK generators and the purchase of renewable electricity certificates), the electricity supplied to your home or business comes from the National Grid and Distribution Network Operators. The distribution network operator (DNO) is the company that owns and operates the power lines and infrastructure that connect National Grid network to your property. National Grid doesn’t connect directly to homes and businesses because its voltage is too high.”
Since renewables and nuclear will always run when they can, it is fossil fuels – and at present, gas, plus the cost of taxes on CO₂ pollution – that subsidise the rest of the energy production, albeit a small amount (under 40% in the UK and only about 20% across the EU). unfortunately the most expensive generator sets the price almost all the time and so the wholesale costs rise across the board.

“Has there ever been a political betrayal of this magnitude in so short a space of time?
This Labour Government is breaking new ground. It has adopted mendacity as a way of doing business.
Yesterday’s Budget, with its £40 billion of tax increases, was the most shocking example so far. And yet Rachel Reeves had the brass neck in her speech to make much of her supposed honesty.
The first Labour lie is that it inherited a basket-case economy after 14 years of Tory incompetence. Of course, not everything was rosy. But as Tory leader Rishi Sunak argued in a barnstorming response to Ms Reeves, Labour inherited inflation at 2 per cent, extremely low unemployment and economic growth among the highest in the advanced G7 economies.
The second lie, even more egregious, is that the Budget honours Labour’s manifesto commitment not to increase taxes for ‘working people’, and specifically not to raise National Insurance.
It is incredible that the Chancellor should have insisted that her measures were entirely consistent with her party’s manifesto.
On May 28, in her first speech of the campaign, she promised that if Labour won the election, there would be ‘no additional tax rises’ beyond the comparatively limited ones already announced for private school fees, non-doms and energy companies.
Has there ever been a political betrayal of this magnitude in so short a space of time? The truth is that millions of working people are likely to find themselves worse off as result of Labour’s assault.
The lion’s share of the tax hike, about £25 billion, will come from National Insurance, the very tax that the party’s manifesto pledged not to touch. True, it will fall directly on employers, not employees, but because it is a tax on jobs it’s bound to affect working people.
Thousands of small businesses, which constitute the lifeblood of our economy, will struggle with this extra cost. In addition, they will have to fork out a much higher national living wage to staff. It is being raised by 6.7 per cent (more than three times the rate of inflation) to £12.21 an hour.”
It is of course no defence for it to pretend it didn’t know about the public finances during the campaign since bodies such as the Institute for Fiscal Studies openly discussed them.
Falsehoods are always hard to bear. They become intolerable when they drop easily from the mouths of Sir Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves, who wrapped themselves in the raiment of virtue and integrity when they so freely accused former PM Boris Johnson’s administration of lying.
Even before yesterday’s Budget Britain was more highly taxed than at any time outside war. Over the next few years this dismal and dishonest crew are going to break many more terrifying records.”

“Rachel Reeves’s claims of a £22billion ‘black hole’ in the public finances have not been backed up by Britain’s economic watchdog.
The Office for Budget Responsibility instead said only that the Treasury had failed to share information about £9.5billion of ‘net pressures’ on departments’ budgets.
While the watchdog says it would have reached a ‘materially different judgment’ on Tory spending plans had the information been available, the size of the ‘black hole’ is less than half that the Chancellor claimed.
Responding to the publication of the OBR review, Tory ex-chancellor Jeremy Hunt told the Mail: ‘They say no conclusive evidence their forecasts were inappropriate.
‘They say you cannot judge how the £9.5billion would have scored but even if they had counted it all we would still have broadly met our fiscal rules.'”

If the next MP murdered is a labour one – then it will be ‘far right terrorism ‘ but if it is a Tory – it won’t be terrorism – it will be a ‘lone actor’ ( see David Amess) .

SUBSTANTIAL – an attack is likely

Members of the public should always remain alert to the danger of terrorism and report any suspicious activity to the police on 999 or the anti-terrorist hotline: 0800 789 321. If your information does not relate to an imminent threat, you can also contact MI5.

Trump looks increasingly likely to win. It seems impossible that Harris can win by a large margin.
What happens if Trump does win.
Suppose he wins bigly .
The left will probably not contest the result via legal or governmental means but they will organise well coordinated ‘spontaneous’ rioting , looting, arson and violence designed to undermine his second term before it has even started. In its last few weeks the Biden WH will be clandestinely pouring fuel on the fires. The legacy media will be egging the rioters on. It will much worse than the BLM riots. No one will be held to account and Trump’s rhetoric will be blamed. But democracy might survive this challenge.
Suppose the result is close, or can be fixed to seem close.
Then all hell will break loose. The Biden administration will use any means to keep Trump out , the whole power of the state and MSM will be mobilised to put Harris in the WH.
Will the American public stand for this? If the Trump voters riot the jails will be filled overnight and martial law declared. Retribution will be swift and savage.The crackdown post Southport protests will be like a tea party in comparison.
Democracy will be seen by all to be dead , the Globalists will try to pretend all is well but we will all know that we live under tyranny.

The BBC is reporting on the terrible floods in Spain, which have so far claimed 92 lives. It states: “Meteorologists believe the extreme weather is due, in part, to the Dana phenomenon – when a pool of cold air interacts with an area of low pressure to create an intensely unstable atmospheric environment.”. Being the BBC and unable to control itself, it continues: While studies suggest Dana events occur many times each year in the western Mediterranean, the intensity of such rainfall events appears to be increasing due to climate change. Naturally this assertion is not supported by any evidence or references to research. Instead, the BBC would like you to think: ‘It’s always warm and sunny and dry in Spain. Now there are floods, so it must be global warming’.
Well, not quite. Historically, floods throughout Spain are a regular occurence, and records dating back to the 13th Century are available. The worst recorded flood in the Murcia area was the Santa Teresa flood of October 1879, when the Segura river overflowed and killed more than 1,000 people. In January/February 1626, flooding in Seville and other cities killed 642 people. The document below cites 589 floods categorised as ‘catastrophic’ between the years 1203 to 1992. These floods are associated with the geography of the country, given its location between the Atlantic and the Meditterreanean, and many large river basins. There is undoubtedly an influence due to human activity, such as changes in irrigation techniques and the development of the south-east coast during the 20th Century, but imaginary ‘global boiling’ isn’t one of them.

Ian the BBC’s go-to source for extreme events is often https://www.worldweatherattribution.org/ who are a partner of Imperial College. However their own analysis of their modelling states:
“… we would like to check whether the extremes are caused by the same meteorological mechanisms as in reality. This can involve checking a large number of processes, making it difficult in practice […] Quantitative meteorological checks are still under development (Vautard et al. 2018). It is therefore still possible that the climate models we use generate the right extreme statistics for the wrong reasons.”
The MSM frequently feed us questionable modelling which they report as empirical ‘fact’. Ignorance, deceit, or both?

What a convenient excuse 2TK has for continuing to lie about the vermin who murdered the children at Southport: that any discussion of the case who jeopardise the trial.

And of course they don’t challenge that official statement.
In other words, “we didn’t know nuffink” while they were persecuting those who – it turns out – were telling the truth about the murderer’s islamist connection.
Like hell they didn’t know. In a matter of terrorism, potentially involving national security (Ricin; terrorist manuals) the PM and his inner circle would have been kept informed every step of the way.

Does that mean that every member of her family (or School or friends or whoever hung about with her) are due money from the taxpayers as well.
Whatever affected her must have also affected those around her. She didn’t live in her personal cloud of pollution.
Or is it a scam.

For anyone facing higher taxes, I suggest just knock some off when you do your return and say you identify as a working person.
Personally I’ve recently come out as tax-fluid. I’m sure this government will be sympathetic.

Yesterday, the government announced what it described as the biggest hike in NHS funding since 2010 – £22bn extra for the front line and another £3bn for equipment and buildings for the rest of this financial year and the following one. That’s against an overall health budget for this year of more than £190bn.

“Unimaginable” cost of Test & Trace failed to deliver central promise of averting another lockdown
10 March 2021
In May last year NHS Test and Trace (NHST&T) was set up with a budget of £22 billion. Since then it has been allocated £15 billion more: totalling £37 billion over two years.

A favourite of mine – saffron corduroy is the chair of NHS providers ( lol ) who is ‘happy ‘ to get the £22 billion of tax payers ‘ money – but it’s only a ‘small step ‘ …
Maybe the UK should just be renamed ‘NHSland’ where we are all subject by an authoritarian medical mafia filling the bank accounts with taxpayers ‘ money ….
I felt sick listening to saffron moaning about how it is still not enough …
A number of pundits suggesting more taxes being raised next year – another big increase – I bet it’s another £40 billion ….

Wouldn’t it be something if Elon Musk bought into GB News.
With the kind of top lawyers he could afford Ofcom might be put in their place instead of fining them £100,000 because they thought Sunak got easy questions from the public audience.
If that was worth a £100,000 fine then they could make a real fortune for every question time and their fully left wing audiences.
And that’s just a start.
The bbbc bias is off the scale on everything so we’re talking £billions.
There’s rich pickings with the other channels as well.
Of course, it won’t happen.
It’s like our ‘justice’ system where only right wingers are punished when they say or do something the lefties disagree with. Not when it’s the other way round though. Everybody knows that.

For attention of all on here :
“Tommy Robinson has been found in contempt of court for publishing a documentary film, and he has been sent to the UK’s most notorious prison, HMP Belmarsh.
That’s been dubbed the UK’s “Guantanamo Bay”, where many terrorists and murderers are serving their time.
But the new prison governor has decided to make Tommy’s life hell — and to possibly put him in a position where he’ll be killed by jihadist prison gangs.
Click here to see the latest details that Tommy described in a phone call:
PLEASE HELP: They’re trying to kill Tommy Robinson in prison
At Tommy’s request, we’ve hired a UK law firm specializing in prison law to take action to compel the prison to protect Tommy. If you can help us crowdfund the cost of these lawyers, please do by clicking here or going to http://www.SaveTommy.com.
Tommy has been in Belmarsh before, but the previous prison governor put Tommy in a special unit called the “contingency suites” where no other prisoners had access to him. It was the same prison within a prison where Julian Assange was held. It’s psychologically damaging to be in solitary confinement for so long, but at least Tommy was allowed visitors and he knew he wouldn’t be attacked.
But the new prison warden, a diversity hire named Jenny Louis, gave Tommy two choices: be thrown into the general population of the prison (where he would be killed by jihadist gangs) or be locked up in a tiny cell “down the block” for 23½ hours a day.
But being put “down the block” is a punishment, usually reserved for violent prisoners who engage in misconduct while in prison. It’s not a permanent holding cell meant for long-term use. According to a recent government inspection of Belmarsh, the average length of time a prisoner has been punished “down the block” is 18 days. Tommy was sentenced to 18 months. No-one could survive that, but that’s what this woke prison governor was threatening to do. She also threatened to punish Tommy in other ways, including severely limiting the number of visitors he’s allowed to receive.
This is morally unacceptable. And it’s illegal, too. Tommy wasn’t convicted of a crime — contempt of court is a civil offence. As a civil prisoner, he has many more rights. A politically angry prison governor can’t just punish him because she dislikes him.
She’s done this before, by the way. When Julian Assange was in prison there, she tried to stop him from even getting married. And she banned Reporters Without Borders from even visiting Assange to see if he was OK.
She’s used to bullying prisoners. It’s only been a couple of days and she is adding extra punishments to Tommy’s sentence. Well, not if we have anything to say about it.
We’ve got to fight back. Even the judge who sentenced Tommy to prison said how dangerous a prison setting is for Tommy.
Before Tommy went to prison, he asked me to look after legal matters like this, and now that he sees what it’s like on the inside, he has approved the plan to hire specialist prison lawyers to challenge this out-of-control governor. I’m pleased to say the new law firm has already made contact with Tommy and is going to battle for him. I’ve promised to crowdfund the cost, so that Tommy’s family doesn’t have to bear this burden.
Please help us protect Tommy in prison — it might even save his life. Visit http://www.SaveTommy.com to help me pay for his prison lawyers.
Thank you.
Yours truly,

P.S. Sentencing someone like Tommy Robinson to prison in the UK is tantamount to a death penalty — the prisons are dominated by Muslim gangs. But the alternative, putting him in solitary confinement, is a form of torture, too.
P.P.S. We absolutely have to push back against this out-of-control prison warden. This new prison law firm specializes in fights like this. Please click here or visit http://www.SaveTommy.com to help me cover their fees.
P.P.P.S. I’ve applied to the prison to visit Tommy to see with my own eyes how he’s being treated. So far, the prison isn’t accepting visitors for him AT ALL. I’ll keep you posted.”

I don’t like Tommy Robinson – but I do admire his courage and drive . To think that the British State has treated him like a cat A criminal – when he should be treated as a ‘civil law ‘ inmate – is …. Soviet …. Brutal … and points to where this country is ( I was going to say ‘our country ‘ but that would be a lie ) ….
The prison governor clearly wants him dead – one way or another …. And it will be good for her career – which is all that matters …

Green members of the European Parliament working on the protection of the EU’s budgets have claimed in a new report that the misuse of European agricultural funds is widespread and a major concern in Central and Eastern Europe.
The report that looks at five countries — Bulgaria, Czechia, Hungary, Slovakia and Romania — and reveals that EU funds tend to end up in the hands local oligarchs connected to political elites or big conglomerates, rather than helping medium and small-sized farms as intended.

I could feel people sleeping around me. I realized what I thought were people sleeping around me were actually dead bodies. I woke up and I was alone.

On strikes’ 40th anniversary, campaign says £4.2bn taken from scheme under deal that gives government 50% of surplus funds
https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/mar/06/ex-miners-left-to-die-in-abject-poverty-as-pensions-raided-campaigners
The National Mineworkers Pension Campaign said the former prime minister Boris Johnson “lied through his back teeth” when he promised in 2019 to end an arrangement that has seen the government take 50% of the Mineworkers’ Pension Scheme surplus funds in exchange for a commitment that the pot’s value would not drop.
The scheme had more than 300,000 members when it was set up and now has 115,000, as each year about 7,000 former miners and their spouses die.
“The government control our scheme. We control nothing. So we’re, in effect, voiceless.”

“Three brothers who abused girls as young as six in a 14-year campaign of rape and sexual assault face decades in prison.
Shaha Amran Miah, 48, Shaha Alman Miah, 47, and Shaha Joman Miah, 38, were convicted after a lengthy trial at Preston Crown Court.
The abuse happened in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, and Leeds, West Yorkshire, between 1996 and 2010.”
The girls abused by Amran Miah and Joman Miah were as young as six or seven when the abuse began, the court heard.
The middle brother, Alman Miah, faced three sexual offence charges against one girl.
Joman Miah started a relationship with a girl of 14 and groomed her by giving her gifts, alcohol and cigarettes.
Around the same time, Alman Miah started a relationship with a 15-year-old girl, who was raped by Amran Miah.

Failed Gateshead asylum seeker who threatened to burn down flat while paramedics were inside given 4 months suspended prison sentence
Ali Raswli was annoyed with the Home Officer when he tried to light a duvet inside his home, while medical staff were trying to help him
A failed asylum seeker took his frustration out on paramedics who were trying to help him when he threatened to burn down his flat and tried to set fire to a duvet.
An ambulance crew had attended Ali Raswli’s Gateshead home following concern he may self-harm but were met by him acting aggressively. A court heard that 27-year-old, who had recently been refused asylum in the UK and was going through the appeals process at the time, then took his frustration at the Home Office out on the two medics.
Kurdish Raswli threatened to set the flat on fire then tried but failed to light a duvet, which was on the living room floor. Prosecutors said Raswli then lit pieces of paper, which thankfully didn’t take, and dropped them on the floor.
His behaviour prompted the paramedics to fear for their safety and leave the premises and Raswli was arrested after the police were called. However, his behaviour didn’t stop there and just three weeks later, on August 19 this year, he made similar threats.
Paul Coulson, prosecuting at Newcastle Magistrates’ Court, said Raswli was speaking on the phone to a welfare support officer, who was also trying to help him, when he claimed he’d doused himself and his home, on Maxwell Street, in Saltwell, in kerosene. Mr Coulson added: “When police attended, the defendant was outside his address.
“He was standing with his left hand behind his back and was challenged to show his hands, which he didn’t do, so he was detained by police with the use of a Taser. The police noted that, when they entered the defendant’s property, there was no smell of fuel or accelerant. The defendant was also wearing dry clothing.”
The court heard that Raswli had also been arrested earlier in the month after he claimed to be lying across railway tracks waiting for a train to hit him. He was located near the tracks and detained.
Raswli pleaded guilty to two counts of threatening to damage property endangering life, one of trespass on a railway and one of failing to surrender to custody when he appeared in the dock earlier this month. The case was adjourned until this week for sentence.
Heather Bolton, defending, said: “The offending all relates to problems with his status in this country and also the torture of his family at home. This appears to have massively impacted his mental health.”
Giving him a four-month prison sentence, suspended for 12 months, District Judge Paul Currer said: “These offences have occurred when you have become frustrated by the lack of progress with you application for asylum in this country. You were unhappy your application had been refused and you were having to go through the appeal process.
“It may well be that you find the process frustrating and annoying, but that does not provide you with an excuse to behave in a criminal manner and make criminal threats. Your offending is made more serious because the people you were threatening were people who were trying to help you.”

Chris Packham receives £35k from government settlement over Tories’ net zero delay
Just those nasty evil ‘Tory’s’ who were not taking the CO2 as dangerous gas and climate change ‘UN inspired – Aplocolypse’ as seriously as those that work at the BBC. (As we all know, BBC are self proclaimed ‘EXPERTS’ in middle-east Israel conflicts, China appeasement syndrome, Russian ‘moles’ Spy’s found in working deep in the BBC vaults, (Kim Philby, as depicted on a Soviet Union stamp. The Cambridge Five was a ring of spies in the United Kingdom that passed information to the Soviet Union during the Second World War and the Cold War and was active from the 1930s until at least the early 1950s), and main BBC Directors stil happily declaring they are ‘Trotskyists’ and not common ‘Marxists’ , when challenged. Nobody asks if this is proper for State media.
Anyway, We know Packham has been ‘groomed’ since youth to be an Eco-Warrior for the BBC. He does not disappoint, and is a lot cheaper to run than Gary Lineker, if he fails, they have others.
Packham wins!
…’The naturalist and BBC presenter took legal action against the previous Tory government last year, arguing it acted unlawfully by delaying some policies aimed at helping the UK reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050.
On Tuesday, Leigh Day, the law firm, said that Packham had reached “a legal settlement” with the Labour Government that “the previous government had acted unlawfully” by axing or watering down climate policies’.
And his legal fees are paid by…
It is understood Mr Packham’s legal costs will be paid up to a maximum of £35,000 in line with the Aarhus Convention, an environmental agreement under the auspices of the United Nations.
And no doubt all whilst working at the BBC. The BBC would deny they had any involvement, but its clear they would have been involved somehow by sponsoring and paying for Packham to take the legal (expensive) option and claim the Conservatives were not worshiping the ‘great god Gaia’ – hard enough as he wished.
Packham looses!
‘Earlier this month, Mr Packham was forced to pay £200,000 to a pensioner and country sportsman he was accused of pursuing “vindictively” through the courts.
In 2023, he was awarded £90,000 in damages after the High Court upheld his defamation claims against two contributors to Country Squire, an online magazine that wrongly accused him of misleading people into donating to a tiger rescue charity.
But his case against Paul Read, a 70-year-old grandfather who was the proofreader for some of the magazine articles, was thrown out by the High Court judge.
It meant that Mr Packham, 63, became liable for the pensioner’s legal costs, and Mr Read has now claimed his damages have been dwarfed by that bill.
It is understood the Springwatch presenter had to pay £196,008, more than double the £90,000 he was awarded as damages.’
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/10/30/chris-packham-receives-35k-government-tories-net-zero-delay/
So all in all, he WON as its a new ‘Labour government now in charge racking up the Net Zero bills and following the word of Chris Packham. Ed Miliband even thinks he is a Saint and a natural philosopher on the ancient world of edible bull-shit that the BBC provides courtesy of the TV license fee. (as vital to the nation as the NHS – says Tim Davie during COVID).
He appears on BBC TV, in case you had any doubt. Somewhere and everywhere describing how toxic the basic building blocks of life are toxic (Chalk cliffs Lime is largely made of CO2, Farm and Wildlife that refuses to wear ‘Nappies (such as Cows) and how dangerous ‘Compost heaps’ are, and how they should be ‘taxed and regulated’ by the next Labour government. Except Vegans. This will save the planet (for Marxism) and will be run by highly media skilled BBC Trotskyists, helped by media ‘Gaia Bishops’ (such as himself). Invincible leaders of the known universe, able to change the weather at will.
God forbid. But we live in strange times.
