Now that the initial shock of the victory of President Trump is subsiding – we can expect the Far Left Anti British BBC to go into full hostility to him – we’ve been here before .

Does someone have to have a terminal illness to qualify for medical assistance in dying?
No, a person does not need to have a terminal illness to qualify for medical assistance in dying.
Unlike assisted dying laws in some other jurisdictions, you do not need to have a fatal or terminal condition to be eligible for medical assistance in dying in Canada.

Starmer said he is absolutely committed to supporting our farmers. Personally I think he ought to just be committed.
BBC news
One of those stories – Steve Rosenberg reports on a doctor sent to prison for two years for posting online denouncing the Ukraine war …
But what ? No mention of sending people to prison in the UK for posting about foreigners – Muslims – killing little girls ?
Bit rich having a go at Russia when Britain is doing even worse … note to 77 brigade eh girls ?
Why has nobody (except Starmer) gone to COP? Could it be they knew the likely result of the US presidential elections (except Starmer who didn’t get the memo).
Good opportunity for starmer to take a few bungs unobserved …
Starmer had probably relied on the bBC’s predictions of the Presidential election.

Unlike the BBC of course who only shut it down when it’s Muslim terrorists, rape gangs or 14 year old black boys stabbing each other.
Whitey gets front page every time.
They ‘shut it down’ by either not reporting it or pushing straight into regions so nobody sees it.
Like this one:

This is 1000 times worse than a far-right 16 year old downloading a pdf file at home – but the BBC only use the word ‘terrorist’ in this article because it is included in the formal charges. They don’t use it anywhere else in their article. Whitey gets it in the headline.
Now, where is that smug family on Youtube with their pro Harris and anti Tory songs:

lol they were truly annoying. They overacted on a par with the double-deckers:
Memories !
“Vice President Kamala Harris’ failed presidential campaign spent more than $1 billion in three months, highlighted by several expenditures that have drawn intense criticism, including spending on celebrity influencers, radical activist groups and private jets.
FEC filings show the Harris campaign made two $500,000 payments to Oprah Winfrey’s production company, first reported by the Washington Examiner, on Oct. 15, a month after Winfrey appeared with Harris at a town hall event and weeks before Oprah was on stage with Harris at a Philadelphia rally before election day.
Conservatives on social media widely criticized the move, accusing Harris of buying the famous endorsement that ultimately did not yield a victory.
“Unconscionable,” GOP Rep. Greg Murphy posted on X. “Oprah, a billionaire, sells her soul for a measly $1M.”
But Oprah did it because she was a mother and cared?HA HA HA HAH AHAHAH H A!
Below is a long piece by Allison Pearson in the DT about oppressive policing on – of all days -mRemembrance Sunday – this country is lost
STARTS 9.40am: All my things were laid out ready for Remembrance Sunday. Black dress, black opaque tights, coat, a new poppy to go with the vintage enamel one that glints in my jewellery box awaiting its annual outing. I was still not dressed when Himself called up to say that there were police at the door for me. I did vaguely wonder what on earth they were doing here – something to do with our road being closed for the parade? But I went downstairs to greet them at the door and apologised to the two young constables standing outside for still being in my dressing gown. I wasn’t sorry for long.
PC S, the one on the left, who did all the talking, told me that they were here to inform me that I had been accused of a non-crime hate incident (NCHI). It was to do with something I had posted on X (formerly Twitter) a year ago. A YEAR ago? Yes. Stirring up racial hatred, apparently.
WHAT? I stood there in my slippered feet trying to take in what the police officer had said; our market town was filled with the sounds of preparation for the forthcoming parade – a distant drummer, the metallic clang of barriers going up. Life going on as normal, but this wasn’t normal; it was far from normal.
“What did this post I wrote that offended someone say?” I asked. The constable said he wasn’t allowed to tell me that.
“So what’s the name of the person who made the complaint against me?”
He wasn’t allowed to tell me that either, he said.
“You can’t give me my accuser’s name?”
“It’s not ‘the accuser’,” the PC said, looking down at his notes. “They’re called ‘the victim’.”
Ah, right. “OK, you’re here to accuse me of causing offence but I’m not allowed to know what it is. Nor can I be told whom I’m being accused by? How am I supposed to defend myself, then?”
The two policemen exchanged glances. Clearly, the Kafkaesque situation made no sense to them, either. I think, even by then, they dimly surmised they had picked on the wrong lady.
Shocked. I was definitely shocked. Astonished. That too. Upset. How could I not be? It’s never nice having the police at the door if you’re a law-abiding person, because police at the door can mean only one of two things: tragedy or trouble. But to have them here on the saddest, most solemn date in the calendar with this kind of malevolent nonsense. It was surreal. (I have hundreds of black and Asian followers on X/Twitter; none of them ever suggested I’d said something bad or hateful. Besides, who decides where you set the bar for what’s offensive?) This is supposed to be 2024, not 1984, yet the police officers seemed to be operating according to the George Orwell operational manual.
All those fluttering feelings and thoughts were elbowed aside by a surge of instinctive anger. A non-crime – what the hell?
“Today,” I began, trying to compose myself and aware of people on the other side of the street stopping to stare at the woman in a dressing gown addressing two coppers, “we are commemorating hundreds of thousands of British men, most of them roughly the age you two are now, who gave their lives so that we could live in a free country, not under the jackboot of tyranny. And you, YOU come here on this sacred day… You know, those soldiers, they could never have imagined that their country, our country, the country they died for, would ever become a place where the police would turn up at the door of a person who has done nothing wrong…”
I think that’s roughly what I said. It’s what I felt, anyway. And as I spoke, warming to my theme, which was freedom, I realised how truly appalling this was. How un-British in the most painful way, this unwarranted intrusion of the state into my private life, this humiliating public reprimand for some casual comment online that had done what, exactly? Hurt whom, exactly? Stirred up hatred how, exactly? It was bloody outrageous.
We are living through an epidemic of stabbings, burglaries and violent crime – not the non-crime variety – which is not being adequately investigated by the police, yet they had somehow found time to come to my house and intimidate me.
I really don’t know what post they were referring to, although I do know that a year ago, I was consumed with the aftermath of the Oct 7 attacks by Hamas and the anti-Semitic slogans being brandished and chanted at pro-Palestine marches.
Standing there on the doorstep, I suddenly thought of my friend who earlier this year had reported domestic violence, coercive control and fraud by their partner to the same Essex police force that this pair before me belonged to. The lackadaisical response from a constable assigned to the case was that a) It was a first offence so the abusive person probably wouldn’t get charged so not worth bothering; b) The prisons were full so not worth bothering; and c) It was only my friend’s word against their partner.
I drafted an Exocet of a reply for my friend. It told the policeman concerned that he had a duty to investigate this serious crime and that there was abundant evidence from banks, credit card companies and family members. With some reluctance, the force eventually made an arrest after the constable whined in a letter to my friend about the excessive language I had used in the Exocet which I had targeted at his lazy rear end.
On Sunday morning, I suppose there was a certain grim satisfaction in knowing that, here I was, living proof that two-tier justice exists in the UK.
If I went to a supermarket and helped myself to £199 of groceries, the police would almost certainly do nothing. We know that for a fact. Retailers all over the country have been complaining for months about soaring incidents of theft. But the police prefer to go after middle-aged women like me. People who have said something someone on the internet didn’t like.
“Don’t you think you’re wasting police time?” I asked the two young coppers. The one with a beard on the right had shuffled sideways and was now some distance from the door after my stirring Remembrance Day peroration, perhaps hoping to stay away from the blast area should your columnist self-combust. A very real possibility given the provocation.
“If my Twitter post was a year ago, why has it taken 12 months for you to come here and accuse me? What have the police been doing all that time?”
Awkward silence. They were only doing their job, I knew that, and I almost felt sorry for them, but how sinister and odious that job has become. PC S asked for my phone number and email address in case they needed to call me in for an interview; I gave him my email only. What did those young officers feel as they left my home? Any tingle of shame for defiling Remembrance Sunday with authoritarian behaviour that would not have been out of place in the regime Britain gave her treasure and the flower of her youth to defeat? More likely, they went to Costa round the corner to grab a coffee and have a laugh at the crazy woman in the dressing gown who had ranted some stupid stuff about living in a free country: the unthinking commissars of wokery and censorship.
Look, I was lucky. I am reasonably well-informed, I have a wonderful platform here at The Telegraph and as a member of the Free Speech Union (FSU) I can get crucial advice about how to fight back against vexatious NCHIs solicited by grievancemongers who despise those of us who hold centre-Right views and who don’t agree that uncontrolled mass immigration has been an altogether unmitigated blessing. But a person who was more vulnerable and unsupported than I am would have been very scared by what I had just experienced. A visit from the police has a chilling effect on free speech, and that’s exactly what NCHIs are designed to do, I think. Not just to shut down “hate”, whatever that is, but to make thinking outside the new approved public morality a dangerous activity.
On Tuesday evening, Essex Police issued a statement to The Telegraph saying that they were investigating me under Section 17 of the Public Order Act 1986, relating to material allegedly “likely or intended to cause racial hatred”. In other words, my tweet was being treated as a criminal matter, rather than a non-crime hate incident, but that is not what I was told on Sunday.
Purely by chance, I was scheduled to interview Bernie Spofforth on Monday for this week’s Planet Normal podcast. After the Southport massacre, in which three little girls were stabbed to death at a Taylor Swift-themed dance class, Bernie, a successful Cheshire businesswoman, retweeted a post that misidentified the alleged attacker as an asylum seeker. (The police told her that using the phrase “asylum seeker” was “racist”. Bernie had added the caveat, “If this is true”.) Normally the most conscientious researcher, Bernie realised her mistake and deleted the retweet within an hour, but not fast enough to avoid being partly blamed for inciting the Southport riots. It was a preposterous insinuation, and cynics might suggest the authorities were grateful for a white, middle-class scapegoat (look how keen they are to throw up a smokescreen around a crime if there is any hint of Islamist involvement). Six police officers came to Bernie’s farmhouse in three vehicles, including a van for prisoners. Treated like a terrorist in front of her ashen husband and daughter, she was taken to the police station and held in a cell for 36 hours. Just for a social media post, please note; not for being in possession of a bioweapon.
Bernie’s harrowing ordeal was followed by an NFA (No Further Action) ruling, because police evidence came nowhere near reaching the necessary threshold. Nonetheless, an emotional Bernie told me that, formerly a brave campaigner for truth in public life, she had been “destroyed” by what the police had done to her and the resulting damage to her reputation and career. Although my own brush with the law on Remembrance Sunday was a mere midge bite compared with what Spofforth endured I found myself getting tearful as I talked to her. For crying out loud, what has our country become? Big Brother really is watching us.
I asked Toby Young, the founder and general secretary of the FSU, to explain NCHIs to me. The idea, Toby says, is if you nip hateful behaviour in the bud while it is still non-crime, the person won’t go on to commit an actual crime. The trouble is, there is not a shred of evidence that it does anything of the sort.
In January 2020, an ex-police officer called Harry Miller was shocked to be interviewed by a Humberside police constable after the force had received a complaint over tweets he had made in which he questioned whether transgender women were real women. It was recorded on a national database as a non-crime hate incident. “Even though I had committed no crime the constable said he needed to check my thinking,” recalled Miller, who said it made him frightened for his country’s future. Me too.
Harry Miller went on to win an important case in the Court of Appeal (Miller v The College of Policing) which concluded that the recording of an NCHI interferes with the right to freedom of expression. Additional safeguards were necessary. Such interference, the court said, is lawful only if it can be justified as seeking to achieve a legitimate aim – namely the prevention of crime or disorder or the protection of the rights of others – and if the recording is made in accordance with a common-sense approach.
I’m afraid that commodity has been in perilously short supply. The FSU found that a quarter of a million NCHIs have been recorded since 2014 in England and Wales alone – an average of more than 65 a day. So it seems I am in good – or bad – company as a non-criminal. Young points out that the FSU managed to get an NCHI removed from no less a person than a vice-chair of the Conservative Party last year. And even Amber Rudd, when she was home secretary, had an NCHI recorded against her after an Oxford professor complained about a speech she had made at – wait for it – the Tory party conference.
If a senior politician can get slapped with a non-crime hate notice for making the not entirely controversial or repugnant suggestion that British job applicants should be prioritised over foreign workers, you know we really are in bonkers Alice in Wonderland, sentence-before-the-verdict territory.
When Suella Braverman became the secretary of state, she saw, quite rightly, how NCHIs are in direct conflict with free speech, which she considers to be “a cornerstone of our democracy”. She wanted to get rid of them altogether but, not for the last time, Rishi Sunak was too timid to do the right and the Conservative thing. Instead, Braverman (assisted by the FSU lobbying in the Lords) introduced legislation that made the recording and retention of NCHIs subject to a statutory Code of Practice. That forced the College of Policing to issue new guidance telling officers to record an event as a non-crime hate incident only when the subject was motivated by “intentional hostility towards a person based on a particular characteristic (disability, race, transgender etc)”. In theory, the evidence bar was now set very high and would prevent police hanging on to personal data like mine, which might come up on a search and cause problems in the future. Forces were on notice to take decisions that were sensible and in the public interest. In practice, police continued to do what most people regard as a complete waste of time and the number of NCHIs actually increased.
I am told by a senior Home Office source that chief constables like NCHIs because they win them Brownie points from various pressure groups. “Good news, we recorded 15 NCHIs for Islamophobia this month!”
I’m afraid I don’t share their enthusiasm for those blunt instruments of censorship and social control. Was it really in the public interest to send two police officers to my house on Sunday morning? What proof did Essex Police have that I was “motivated by intentional hostility” in a tweet 12 months ago whose contents they refuse to disclose? What threat of actual crime or disorder do I pose to anyone with a protected characteristic – if any? How much common sense informed the police’s approach?
Most people would think this was stark staring mad, I reckon, yet it seems that Yvette Cooper, the new Home Secretary, may want to repeal Suella Braverman’s statutory instrument and unleash ever more spurious NCHIs, presumably to encourage the British people to keep their traps shut. That does not suggest a happy, confident country or a political class that believes it governs with popular support. As the writer Charles Bukowski observed, “Censorship is the tool of those who have the need to hide actualities from themselves and from others.”
Let’s hope Yvette Cooper changes her mind and police stop bothering people who have done nothing wrong and stick to the bad guys. “There is zero evidence that recording non-hate crimes reduces hate crimes,” insists Young, “It’s just a smokescreen. The real reason is to punish people who don’t comply with the gospel as promulgated by the church of woke.”
I didn’t go to the Remembrance service after all that, the vintage poppy brooch went back in its box. I felt this terrible sadness. (What about my civil liberties – do I have any?) I want to be proud of our country on that most solemn day, not ashamed and fearful of what we have become. Surely, if we know anything it’s that those who laid down their lives died for us to be free. Their astonishing sacrifice should be honoured, not traduced by stupid authoritarian measures like NCHIs. That really would be a crime.ENDS
Shocking and could possibly have a profound effect on her life.
And she is probably now somebody who won’t dream of helping the police in the future. It’ll be funny once they have alienated what used to be their core support, who’s going to help them? The criminals?

“Will no one rid me of this troublesome priest?” is a quote attributed to King Henry II of England, referring to his frustration with Thomas Becket, the Archbishop of Canterbury.
Some weeks ago Mr AsI noted the only vaguely significant lone voice of dissent to be heard within our mainstream media in opposition to the nudge campaign for so-called assisted dying was that of Justin Welby. Afterall, it was part of his job description as Archbishop of Canterbury to speak up for the Christian concept of the sanctity of life (sort of).
Justin Welby, has called assisted dying “dangerous” and a “slippery slope”. He said that legalising assisted dying could lead to more people feeling pressured to end their lives medically. Of course he could have said it was just wrong. But the modern CofE doesn’t tend to want to sound too emphatic – too doctrinal. Too religious?
Mr AsI observed frontpage pictures of our Justin with his goofy expression and silly hat and concluded he was being set up as an Aunt Sally to be knocked down – not so much a man of the cloth as a weak argument straw man.
His objections to assisted dying legislation were mere nitpicking practicalities – easily overcome by the reassurances of our legalistic managerial state – so well versed as it is in its spin and cheese-paring.
Assisted dying bill dangerous, says Archbishop… suggested it would lead to a “slippery slope”… The head of the Church of England was speaking with the BBC ahead of the first reading in Parliament of a bill that would give terminally ill people in England and Wales the right to end their lives. (BBC, 16 October 24) – note the framing there – Welby’s speculations versus the granting of RIGHTS
Kim Leadbeater, the MP who introduced the bill on Wednesday, told the BBC she disagrees with the archbishop’s “slippery slope” argument, saying their proposal is for people who are terminally ill and suffering at the end of their life.. and there would be clear criteria set for access, as well as medical and judicial safeguards.. (BBC, 16 October 24) – so that’s alright then.
Our BBC goes on to claim opinion polls say up to 70% of people want assisted dying – well up to 70% want immigration controls but we don’t get that. Then our BBC moans about the fact bishops sit in the House of Lords and dare to vote on this ethical sort of stuff.
From my perspective it looked as though Welby was being deliberately put up to lose the public argument – but at least we’d had one, fair and square, right?
But then this morning we read: Archbishop resigns… My profound sense of shame (Daily Mirror) – the gynaeceum that is BBC news staff liked that frontpage to top their online press line-up.
To be replaced by…?
Now one could make some obvious diversity bet on a woman or someone of ethnic origin other than from the British Isles.
But Mr AsI will put this out there – it will be someone will render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar’s.
In other words: a phrase from the Bible that means people should pay taxes to the civil government and respect state authority – thank you AI Overview.
Whereas… for instance… Muslims who use their living area’s within their homes as a place of Worship, are exempt from paying Council Tax. This however does not apply to other religions. (UK Government and Parliament Petitions [This petition has been identified as misleading.] Apparently)
Do Muslims Pay Council Tax? The simplest answer to the question “Do Muslims Pay Council Tax?” is that: Of course, Muslims pay council tax in the UK – but mosques don’t. But this is not so simple, and the real answer is complicated and depends upon so many factors. It can also vary from council to council… Residences provided to religious leaders (e.g., Imams) may be subject to council tax. However, if the residence is part of the premises of a place of worship, it might be exempt. (My Tax Accountant)
“it might be exempt” – so clear!

You might wonder why Smarmer has announced that we will reduce carbon emissions by the remarkably exact, pinpoint figure of 81%? Why not 80%? Perhaps it might remind us of what would be left, 20%, the percentage of the electorate that voted for him.
How much more of this crap are we going to have forced on us?
Flotsam, you’re so negative!
Der Starmer has told us he wants to grow the economy.
Just think of the growth in wooly jumpers, blankets, hot water bottles, candles, and vegan food shops he will achieve.

On Toady this morning, Emma Barnett, clearing trying to become the female Jeremy Paxman, laid in to the Archbishop of York over the child abuse problems in the Church of England.

Indeed can we expect her to equally forcefully investigate safeguarding measures in certain other certain religious institutions?
No?

Another 37 billion!
I hope the rest of the World will thank us when we get the climate back to normal in 2050 by cutting our carbon emissions 81%
I also hope that if we reduce our emissions by 10% by outsourcing steel making (just an example amount as I don’t know the real numbers) that this 10% (plus transport costs and more) will somehow disappear because we don’t count it.

TOADY Watch #1 – the Wes Streeting interview
Wes Streeting sounded horribly like Tony Blair. The sound of Blair’s voice would give me the ‘heebie jeebies’ now after his period of ruining the UK from 1997 to 2007. Eeeeeeeek!
Starmer to say that he is 100% sure that he wil change his mind.
Saw on Substack a post about CNN’s likely firing hundreds of their ‘talent’, the name for the overpaid, Leftist Democrat promoting, lying disinformation purveyors because of plummeting viewing figures following their biased coverage of the US election and President Trump’s glorious victory, despite the ongoing steal.
It’s funny how quickly one forgets but the head of CNN is none other than one Mark Thompson who was once the head of the overpaid, Leftist (Labour) promoting, lying disinformation provider Al Beeb.
Perhaps Karma will similarly descend on Al Beeb.

In the first minute of this short clip, he uses the analogy of turning over a large rock in the forest, and all the creatures under the rock scuttle around: beetles, spiders, larvae, worms, eggs and other creatures scatter, hide, reform.
And already seismic shifts are happening in Ukraine, Russia, China, Iran, Qatar, Hamas, the rest of the Middle East, the EU, Wall Street, the Democrat party and of course in domestic US affairs.
All that, even before Orange Man steps into the White House.
Of course, things could go wrong; the Democ-rats might succeed in thwarting the great man or assassinating him. But it’s possible that Trump goes down in history as one of the greatest Presidents ever, who changed the world.
“This video examines how Donald Trump’s unexpected triumph in the presidential election has already shaken the world, sparking significant changes in politics and economics across the globe. We will discuss its impact on U.S. foreign policy, including key issues concerning Ukraine and the Middle East, changes in Europe, China’s stance, and political shifts in American domestic policy.”
Unexpected Triumph?
FFS …,.
these gits are sooo up themselves, it’s often just absurd
He means unexpected to much of the world. He himself has long been predicting it.
When America sneezes the whole world catches a cold.
The good ole U.S.A. just sneezed like an elephant!!!!
BBC reporting that Labour are to pressure NHS management to achieve greater efficiency..
At the same time reporting on a push for a vote on assisted dying otherwise known as “putting down” for the very ill…..
What could possibly go wrong?
About time that the evidence destroying scum NHS managers went to jail, in addition to P45s and pensionectomies!
I’ve said it before, but I’ll keep saying it….
As one of the primary aspects of their roles, the CEO (Chief Executive Officer), and the CFO (Chief Financial Officer) of each NHS Trust, are responsible for adhering to the Trust’s budget, which they themselves have been responsible for setting.
So how come, year after year, the same two people eventually wind up, way before the financial year end, demanding far more money because they have exceeded their budgeted annual expenditure (without at all providing any productivity gains from their over-expenditure). The same guys, the same NHS Trusts, and the same sheer inability to manage a vital part of their jobs – how is that possible without one or both being sacked for serial incompetence ?
In any other sector, this would not even be tolerated once before sanctions being applied, because it must be bloody obvious their budget has gone to r@t-sh1t within the first few months of the fiscal year – and they are incapable of dealing with the problem.
Our NHS – no – their NHS – full of losers, and incompetent ‘Peter Principle’ canditates (for those not familiar with this ‘principle’ it effectively postulates that certain people can be regularly promoted to their own level of incompetence. It applies much more to the public sector than the private sector.
digg
Assisted dying? Isn’t that exactly what every murderer does?
It would seem the adage “Get woke, go broke” applies in Church matters too, eh Welby?
Can anyone think of another large, bloated, moribund organisation – a national treasure, no less – that is very woke and deserves to go very broke?
vlad on the strength of that last advert I will never purchase in Boots again.
Good, but I wasn’t thinking of Boots. 🙂
vlad, hopefully Boots will be in administration shortly and irrelevant. My starter for 10 would be the National Tryst.
Trick question, I was thinking BBC.
Too well camouflaged vlad. The bBC goes deeper than woke. People have a choice they can either have the bBC or they can have democracy. ‘Woke’ are the shallow Gramscian supporting acts.
The M&S ad I’d just as bad , The products they sell are not for my ethnicity . Also they are hightist as the mens trousers only go up to 33inch inside leg.
If you haven’t seen it yet here is the boots xmas advert fat white man sleeps while all the ethnics and weirdos do all the work lol
That ugly actress is the racist who described the Royal balcony as ‘terribly white’.
Boycott, boycott, boycott. It’s the only language they understand. It’s the only way to hit back. It worked for Bud Light, it worked for Gillette, it worked for Nike and it can work for Boots.
vlad
Africa is terribly black and I’m pretty sure it is proud of the fact but I wouldn’t say that’s racist. People just feel more at ease among their own kind. It’s a fact.
wwfk
This Boots ad takes me back to 2021 with the Marks & Sparks advert which I found absolutly repugnant.
Remember the :-
This is not just any lingerie – this is M&S underwear inspired by George Floyd.
They are not happy to simply attempt to sell their products but have to push their own tacky racist agendas, with the assumtion that everyone agrees and thinks it’s great. The majority of adverts I see today have the same woke themes, constantly shoved down our throats and deliberatly created to promote their own political and woke beliefs.
And they call US racist!
….The thing is – I’m now desperatley running short on places to shop!
Did M&S mean their lingerie was for lowlife drug-dealing, women-beating, violent street thugs who resist arrest?
Doesn’t that sound like Christmas to you?
Only in Glasgow.

NHS managers to be sacked in failing hospitals
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1kn092rvn3o
sacked for failing to follow manifesto?
Sacking NHS Managers is just a game of Wacamole. More nurses will go on Admin Courses to replace them – I saw it first hand.
Is that the sum total of their thinking?
Then it’s even worse than I thought.
It may be necessary here and there but it’s also insufficient,
simplistic, and pathetic.
It’s a great idea Brissles, well worth it but self defeating, they’ll just end up blocking A and E with head injuries.
Maybe just for a trial period with baseball bats ?

this one
The good Dr who was consulting for this bBC flagship immigration program is a lecturer in sociology at the Open University. She has such pearls of wisdom as this:
The book mentioned there was published in July this year and argues: “Borders must be abolished. Borders produce and are produced by carceral, racist, classist, sexist, and xenophobic regimes. Border Abolition Now demands transformative politics to dismantle these systems of oppression.” Naturally it’ll be on all BBC producers’ bookshelves by now…
She seems a bit hateful IMHO.
Education is racist..unless she puts up, shuts up, gives her job to a black immigrant person, and any spare rooms in her house, all surplus income, savings stocks and shares towards immigrants, and gives all future college places of her kids to black immigrant people.
Otherwise she’s a bloody hypocrite…oh, wait…
yep – technical problem!
Further to some posts above, from the Evening Standard:
“Why a Christmas advert has led to ‘boycott Boots’ trending online.
Right-wing critics are calling the company’s Christmas campaign a “woke monstrosity.
Last year Andoh appeared as a guest on ITV’s coverage of the King’s coronation and remarked on the contrast between the “rich diversity of the Abbey” for the service and the “terribly white balcony” at Buckingham Palace. The comment sparked over 8,000 complaints to Ofcom, who decided not to take action. ”

The real vicousness and nastiness of the woke far left:
” Alexander Rogers wasn’t just ‘cancelled’ – he was bullied to death
The kind of “shadow justice” that has flourished, unchallenged, at our “shadow universities” has cost a bright, talented young man his life.
Every week we read about killers and rapists being released from jail. They’re allowed to pay for their crimes; they’re allowed, if not absolution, then at least the possibility of rehabilitation. What could “Zander”, the former junior common room treasurer, possibly have done that denied him any of that?
We don’t actually know, because he was also denied a formal hearing. No formal complaint was ever made so even now, almost a year on, the details are murky. There was a sexual encounter with another student (referred to only as “B”) six days before his death. The young woman subsequently expressed “discomfort” at what had taken place to several male friends. Alexander “appeared distraught” after finding this out. And although “B” didn’t intend to report the incident to the college authorities, her disclosures led to an increasing hostility towards Alexander and a social ostracisation from which he became convinced there was no way back.
At the weekend, in one of the first instances of its kind, the coroner took the laudable step of calling out the culture that had made this young man feel he didn’t deserve to live. He has since sent a prevention of future death report to the Department for Education, asking ministers “to reflect on the concerns that have arisen” and “take those concerns forward”.
Nicholas Graham wrote that “this culture, described as a form of ‘cancel culture’, involved the exclusion of students from social circles based on allegations of misconduct, often without due process or a fair hearing”.
Highlighting the findings of a serious incident review conducted by the mental health specialist Dominique Thompson, Graham warned against a university culture where people “rush to judgment without knowledge of all the facts” and then “shun those accused”. A culture Dr Thompson found “had become established and normalised” both at Oxford and within the education sector more widely.
I would take this a step further. Because there’s a plainer word that could and should be used to describe what happened to Alexander; the collective “shunning”, the “pile-on” Dr Thompson wrote about “where a group would form a negative view about another individual” and decide to freeze them out. It’s called bullying.
How, at a zero-tolerance time when children are given anti-bullying lessons from the moment they can talk and employees can brand their bosses bullies if they so much as ask for a document to be photocopied, has this particular form of bullying been allowed to thrive? Because it’s the “right” kind of bullying. Condoned by the establishment, no less. Because these bullies are “on the side of the angels”.
We see it not just with accusations of sexual impropriety but other hot button issues at universities. The smallest flicker and out come the industrial grade fire extinguishers. What has actually happened – whether you’re innocent or guilty – is almost irrelevant. Instantly, it becomes about the principle of the thing, about a bigger cause, a higher agenda – one they’ve read and argued about online. And principles, causes, they justify everything, don’t they?
Corpus Christi College has already accepted that “such a culture exists”, says the coroner. Indeed, it was aware of at least “two instances where complaints had been received through formal channels in circumstances with some similarities to Alexander’s case”. Now it, along with every other college and university, needs to crack down on a cancel culture that promotes bullying and the kind of “shadow justice” that has been allowed to flourish, unchallenged, at our “shadow universities”.

Guardian says it won’t publish on Musk’s X
The Guardian has announced it will no longer post on Elon Musk’s social media platform, X, formerly known as Twitter.
“This is something we have been considering for a while given the often disturbing content promoted or found on the platform, including far-right conspiracy theories and racism,” the London-based newspaper and website said.
Oww well, i’m sure Elon will sleep at night. Just some censoring from The Guardian
Ha !
Guardian no longer on Twitter / X?
Not for long I’m guessing….
Even though they regularly get hammered – they keep coming back …. No such thing as “peak Guardian”
To near universal derision.
Luckily the BBC picked sides. Again. With added one degree of separation classic subbing.

The Guardian stops posting on Elon Musk’s ‘toxic’ X
#ccbgb
Excellent news Andy – we know that Mr Musk keeps an eye on censorship in the UK – sending twitter users to prison for 2 years – the absence of free speech – im sure the likes of the visit to a journalist by the religious police on Remembrance Sunday about a 12 month old tweet won’t go un noticed either …
I hope the `trump administration offers political asylum to enemies of the Great Leader – the way things are going – non Muslim white Britons are going to need somewhere safe …
The great leader is to increase council tax by an average of £100 next year – God save the Great Leader …
And a 4 day week which Rayner has not objected to for South Cambridgeshire so the greedy lazy socialist marxist councils and all other public institutions will be demanding the same
They might as well, I doubt the civil service work more than 2 anyway,
That public sector WFH thing is still massive…. Boom time for garden offices and conservatory floggers.
Probably off-licences too.
Not such good news:

And in other news – the alleged killer who attacked strangers in a londonistan market 2 minutes after the 2 minutes silence on Sunday is named as
Musse Ali,66
This was not an Islamic terrorist attack or anything like it – ok ? Because in 2024 – up is down and white is not white …
MSN
“Ali, of no fixed address, spoke only to confirm his name and address via a Somalian interpreter, as he appeared at Croydon Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday to face charges of one count of murder, two counts of attempted murder and one of knife possession.
Scotland Yard said it was not a terrorist attack and urged the public not to speculate on any potential motive.”
Somalia ? terrorism ? isn’t that the national sport ? closely followed by endemic corruption.
What’s the saying again ? Go Woke Go ….
