    And the BBC continue to back the Labour Party.

    The BBC make things worse for us by removing the Market Data which was not as good as its predecessor. The predecessor had the silver and copper prices which are both important. The only thing that I think has improved on the BBC web-site is that it is now easier to reject the cookies that the BBC want to implant on your device.

    Here is the BBC’s excuse for removing the Market Data:
    The BBC has discontinued its market data feeds on both the website and red button (UK only) services. We have previously provided delayed updates on major stock prices, currencies, and commodities.

    This change is part of our broader initiative to make savings, streamline operations and improve other essential aspects of the BBC’s digital journalism.

    This forms part of the BBC’s strategy to deliver value for all of its audiences. We will continue to deliver comprehensive coverage of significant business and economic stories through our TV and radio broadcasts, as well as our news website and other digital platforms.

    Although we will no longer supply market data in this format, you can continue to access this information through various alternative sources. BBC News will continue to provide market data headlines on the News Channel and on BBC Radio 4.

    The BBC said they will remove Market Data at the end of November 2024. I don’t think you can trust or

      The currency exchange rates provided on the Red button were useful here in France. It mean’t I could see what my state pension would be when paid into my French bank. That won’t apply now. However by removing this service they will assist the Labour Party when they actually trash Sterling.Oh by the way I signed the petition. I’m still registered to vote in UK elections.

        NV, i did a search this morning for a reliable alternative to the BBC(!). The FT was suggested as an alternative so I clicked on that. I now have it bookmarked. You have to negotiate the dreaded cookies away. That is the only improvement I can think of on the BBC web-site. It is now easy to reject their cookies. Apart from that everything is worse about the BBC web-site, including the weather provided by Meteo.

      The BBC have realised that Market Data is going to reveal just how quickly the new bloke in No 10 will be creating havoc with the UK’s financial performance in the next few weeks and months with their left-wing based random punitive taxes and regulations.

      Any responsible public news outlet would want to put this information out there transparently in the interests of Joe Public. Instead the BBC are obviously prepared to try to hide it to protect their man in No 10. The weak excuse that they are simply diverting resources is typical BBC left-wing protectionism and fudging.

          On the subject of Marianna, I would love to see the posts and personal messages she writes using her ‘anonymous’ troll profiles on social media to illicit the responses she wants.

          Of course we will never find that out. I suspect she is the only one who knows the truth about that. Her boss will just get to see the posts she wants him to see.

          I notice many of maxis posts here were written in a specific style where they intentionally provoked and insulted but stayed within certain parameters as if he had a rule book he had to abide by. Occasionally though he must have been high on something and couldn’t help himself – which is when we got a look at his true character. And it wasn’t pleasant at all.

      What a load of bull. Pretty much every politician I’ve known gets into politics for one reason. Themselves.

      It’s power, influence and money they want. If anyone thinks they give a damn about anything else, they’re idiots.

    Two aspects the BBC like to tell us .

    Britain sends more people to jail than any other Western European country .

    To the BBC sending criminals to prison is a Bad Thing , exemplified by their notion that all things are good in the EU .

    Britain takes in less asylum seekers than [France ] .

    So we should take more because they do .

    Its not the other Western countries should do as we do and send more of their scum to jail , or they should not take in bogus asylum seekers that disrupt their countries .

    Oh no , to the BBC whatever an EU country does we should the same , or more of the same .

    What we know about Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire deal
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2d3gj9ewxo

    Here we have another excellent example of the BBC protecting the Leftist-infested UN:

    ‘The agreement largely tracks UN Security Council resolution 1701, which ended the 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah.
    Under resolution 1701, areas south of the Litani should be free of any armed personnel or weapons other than those of the Lebanese state and the UN peacekeeping force (Unifil).’
    ‘But both sides claimed violations of the resolution.’
    ‘Israel says Hezbollah was allowed to build extensive infrastructure in the area, while Lebanon says Israel’s violations included military flights over its territory.’

    Classic BBC : Israels violations ‘INCLUDE’ military flights. Inferring directly that there are many others but not mentioning any of them. And of course those flights are absolutely insignificant in comparison.

    The BBC are trying to say both sides were to blame equally for the failure of that resolution. No mention of the UN at all.
    Here’s what wiki says:

    ‘As of 2024, the resolution was not fully implemented. Hezbollah and other armed groups in southern Lebanon have not withdrawn at all; in particular, Hezbollah has since significantly increased their weapons capabilities, amassing approx. 120,000–200,000 munitions (short-range guided ballistic missiles, short- and intermediate-range unguided ballistic missiles, and short- and long-range unguided rockets), and has increased the deployment of its armed forces south of the Litani River, developing tunnels, weapon stashes, airstrips and military installations.’

    Not ‘Israel says’ BBC – implying nobody else does. It’s fact. And entirely justifies the military flights.

    And whose job was it to ensure the agreemenet was respected ? – The UN and the 10,000 soldiers they fund to keep there. But they have done absolutely nothing. They are utterly unfit for purpose. They have proved it time and time again in this conflict – yet nobody has been forced to resign.

    Yet to the BBC’s eternal shame, their credibility has never been called into question once. Because they too take the side of the Muslim terrorists over the Jews. They never criticise these left-wing activists because the long-term agenda is more important.

    The UN should be abolished. Like the BBC, it is now infested with left-wing activists sucking at the teat of public money.

    No author given for this one for some reason – but I doubt it’s either of their two biggest racist terrorist-supprters Fergal Keane or Jezza because their rhetoric is always 80% irrelevant empathy to sway your opinion.

      JohnC, the BBC are biased. The BBC are biased in favour of the Palestinians, the Gazans and Hamas. They also appear to be biased in favour of Fatah in the West Bank. There is a video featuring a Sky News Australia presenter and Douglas Murray on the previous Thread which if the video is correct ought to to result in Tim Davie’s resignation. Maybe someone, Stew?, can post a link?

      Does anyone ask why there’s so many special needs from a certain group? I bet not, because it’s their culture innit. That’s the problem with genetics it’ll show the truth eventually but in their old land the problems didn’t survive and were quickly buried. In the west the medical profession throws everything at them to keep them alive and the taxpayers pick up the bill again.

          I don’t approve of beating kids up of course, but the videos I saw didn’t look as terrible as the BBC them made out to be.

          Perhaps there are worse videos that they did not show? I doubt it though.

          Looks like a few parents are going for compo, after the CPS originally dropped charges (not that I trust the CPS nowadays anyway).

          I’d like to know what the BBC or the families of the cousin marriage offspringers suggest when a child or teenager is smashing the place up and won’t stop. Perhaps this child also lashes out at other kids and teachers too?

          Their solution seems to be, ‘Just let him smash the place up and then kick the shit out of the kid in the wheelchair. In fact, so what if he sets the building on fire and kills everyone? Just let him do what he wants!”

          Yes, don’t slap or kick the kid around, but restraint is sometimes needed with children like this (for the safety of others and themselves) and it won’t always look pretty with a spinning top of a child.

          But if you can get a few seconds of footage of a female honky teacher being a bit rough with a brown child…burn the witch!

          Kids like this cost a fortune. You’re talking 70k a month in some cases.

          Now, we should try our best to support children like this, but not for those who marry a close relative and have kids with them.

          If we keep paying out, it’ll just encourage the rest of the ‘communidie’ to do the same.

          Which happens, of course.

          Just don’t pay anything extra than child benefit for those who deliberately married their cousin and had kids with them.

          Stop encouraging this shit!

    There has been a development in the symptoms of that well known modern disease , Trump Derangement Syndrome , TDS .
    Some of those who suffer from it , particularly those who work in the US government deep state or in the Democratic Party have developed a new and very embarrassing symptom.

    This is Loose Bowel Syndrome, LBS , when the sufferer suddenly and uncontrollably evacuates their bowel . This new symptom has developed since Nov 6 th and is affecting increasing numbers of senior figures in US government agencies .
    The Dept of Justice , FBI and CIA are very badly affected with many panic meetings having to be held in lavatories as participants don’t know when the next evacuation may happen.

    President elect Trump has grimly suggested that the main cause of LBS is fear of justice and that the only treatment may be to take a powerful purgative.

        I think that Trump must put the US national interest first which, thankfully, will also be in the interest of every other democratic nation.

        The national interest of the United States will be best served by those anti democratic forces which have tried by abusing their power and use of illegal means , to remove a legitimately elected President or to limit his ability to act , being subject to the full legal process .
        Additionally all US government agencies must be purged of those who believe that it is their right to oppose the democratic will of the people. Examples must be made. Justice must be seen to be done.

        To ignore the subversion of democracy that has taken place over the last eight years for the sake of national unity would be a huge mistake . These people cannot be allowed to get away with their multiple anti democratic activities because if they are allowed to democracy everywhere will be undermined.
        The United States must set an example for the rest of the free world to follow. This isn’t about personal revenge , this is about fighting on behalf of ordinary people for the future of democracy.

    Outpouring of love, compassion and empathy in this Taylor Swift-themed and nothing to do with terror edition

    What is the main reason most men don’t like Taylor Swift’s music/Taylor herself. (Reddit discussion)

    Answers: Obviously I know blatant sexism is probably the answer as to why men not being able to relate to some of her songs subject matter.

    Taylor’s music heavily calls men out on the ways they act towards girls in relationships

    she was unapologetically a teen girl and (most) men immediately dismiss anything teen girls like bc misogyny… She’s an extremely successful and talented woman that likes glitter and cats and fairytales — many men just can’t fathom that.

    We are now sadly well aware of officially instigated efforts to cover-up violent incidents (often terrorism inspired) when perpetrated by immigrants here in the UK. Whether the protective smoke screen happens to be those familiar claims of mental issues, under-18 so-called child legal anonymity, or media descriptions of the perpetrator as – for instance – a presbyterian local man… the plotting is sinister but often cack-handedly obvious.

    The more sinister and subtle ‘community cohesion’ strategy is the official manipulation of the terror incident victims’ families.

    When the post hoc clean-up campaign response goes awry things can get very messy:

    Police chief faces watchdog probe over Nottingham attack cover-up claims… A Chief Constable is to be investigated by the police watchdog over claims that she covered up failings linked to the Nottingham stabbings… Kate Meynell will face an Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC) probe after she allegedly tried to stop journalists revealing knifeman Valdo Calocane had been reported twice to cops for stalking before killing Barnaby Webber, Grace O’Malley-Kumar and Ian Coates in 2023… Ms Meynell called a private press briefing to reveal the two incidents – but then made reporters sign Non-Disclosure Agreements forbidding them from publishing what she said… the relatives said of the coming probe: “It is no less than she deserves.” In a joint statement, they said: “We believe she chose to hold a non-reportable media briefing to withhold information and shackle the press from reporting further gross actions of her force.” (Daily Mirror)

    BBC doesn’t have consent for documentary on Nottingham killings, say victims’ families. Victim’s mother said the families were not asked to contribute to the documentary (Independent)

    Nottingham attacks: Sons upset at not being told of vigil… sons of a school caretaker killed in attacks in Nottingham have said they are upset they were not told of and invited to a huge public vigil held two days after his death… The families were invited to the vigil by Nottingham City Council through their family liaison officers… but the sons of Mr Coates were not assigned an officer as they were initially not classed as next of kin… the council said the vigil was organised to support the outpouring of “love, compassion and empathy” following the killings. (BBC)

    The regime does at least seem to have learned from past mistakes in handling the potential fall out from these incidents.

    They say keep you friends close and your enemies closer. Well, our authorities are now keeping the victims extremely close.

    Kate Middleton Invites Families from Taylor Swift-Themed Dance Class Attack to Her Carol Service (People.com) – The Princess of Wales giving – and indeed given – the common touch there as the mere Ms Middleton.

    Kate Middleton’s words of comfort for families of Southport stabbing victims: Princess hugs relatives and says ‘thank you’ to 999 workers as she and William reunite for first public engagement since Christmas concert (Daily Mail) – One begins to suspect this Kate Middleton business is an official order from William Windsor to the media as part of his Royal with a small ‘r’ PR initiative.

    One hears Taylor Swift has some hit records titled: I knew you were trouble; Cruel Summer; Bad blood and; Shake it off

    And so to this morning’s press and the regime clean-up campaign begins: Dance class teacher Leanne Lucas has spoken for the first time of the horric knife attack that left three little girls dead (giveaway freebie Metro)

    And you can bet your bottom dollar she won’t be telling any tales out of dance class. She won’t be criticising any authorities and certainly not any government immigration policies.

    Can we change the subject to something less terrorisng please?

    The 28-year-old – injured protecting children at the Taylor Swift-themed event in Southport – spoke at a vigil for women and girls who have lost their lives to male violence (giveaway freebie Metro)

    So this is the tack the authorities are going to take. It was a MAN wot done it.

    Good, crush the bastards, there are those who were merely present at the Jan 6 incident still in jail for years now, some for three years without trial, there are those over here in jail for shouting in the street, they wanted to jail Trump on 92 charges when he stood for president, they had co ordinated committees looking for anything to charge him with.

    They have deliberately allowed around 10 MILLION illegal immigrants into the country without checking who they are or their criminal history, then shipped them around the country under cover of darkness.

    They have deliberately reduced cities like San Fransisco into drug ridden crime infested hell holes with thousands of homeless on the streets, by stopping police acting.

    I say again crush the bastards, into jail for years without remission they have no mercy within themselves for anyone disagreeing with them, or insight into their racism, sexism and far left fascism.

    Make sure they never achieve any kind of employment in office ever, ever again.

    There may be about 40 million planet killing vehicles on Britain’s roads…plus around 1 million electric saviours. Soooo…how’s it gonna work then? How are all these vehicles going to be replaced and what are the consequences?

    Still many reasons not to buy electric….a major one is the time for recharging…even a rapid charge is too long…and very expensive…in one test it worked out more expensive to rapid recharge an EV than use a diesel. And then Reeves will want to start slapping some sort of tax on EV use as revenue from fuel tax dries up.

    And how will they transition out of petrol/diesel use? As people drift to EVs fuel will get more and more expensive and trucks, which will be the last to go electric, will cost vastly more to fill up and transport your goods…inflation will soar, and on top of that the poorest[and not so poor] will be driven off the roads as they can’t afford either fossil fuels or the electric bill. The whole infrastructure supplying fuel [and servicing your car] will collapse or be exhorbitantly expensive, jobs will go in the millions but some will be created digging up the roads and installing all the cabling and recharging infrastructure…not a problem though as no-one will be using the roads as they have no cars.

    Never mind…I have the greatest faith in Ed Miliband…or at least in the BBC to cover up for him and to tell us everything is going splendidly and will be a wonderful brave new world….in those 15 minute neighbourhood gulags where you won’t need a car and you never leave.

      That’s what socialists want.
      They don’t want individuals living their own lives exercising their own requirements using their own cars.
      They want collectivised transport by which they can control us.
      All the climate change guff is just a convenient means to an end.

      Am I making this up? Well just think how they are collectivising the raising of children by ‘safeguarding’ them increasingly from their parents. In other words the state is a better parent than the parents. Occasionally this is true, as with baby Peter or the awful woman keeping her child in a bed drawer. But away from the hot spot cases, drip by drip, un-noticed, the state muscles in and guess what, taxes have to rise to pay for the ever expanding social services budgets.

    This is what happens with DEI hires:

    “Female fire worker sues for harassment claiming her male boss is a ‘sexual predator’ after he said his wife had a Mulberry handbag just like hers.

    He asked her if she would later be going to Mulberry shop – where bags can cost more than £1,500 – and said he had spent a ‘considerable amount of money’ on handbags for his wife.

    Ms Amber included Mr McCarthy’s comments in a series of tribunal claims she made against Bradford-based West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service.

    However, the tribunal found that while his Mulberry remarks were ‘unwise’ and a ‘clumsy attempt’ to gain Ms Amber’s confidence, this did not amount to sexual harassment.

    Ms Amber lost her claims for race discrimination, disability discrimination, sexual harassment and unfair dismissal, though did successfully sue for victimisation.

    The tribunal, held in Leeds, heard that Ms Amber started working as an information governance assistant at the fire and rescue service in 2016.

    In March 2022 she went on sick leave for work-related stress which lasted until she resigned in January last year.”

    Im still looking out how the media dealt with the US election . Two days before the election James Plc Naughtie did a piece where he didn’t predict the outcome – but he did predict the result would be close and that there would be days weeks months of arguments about results ….

    … so jimmy boy – someone who has so much experience – so much time at the BBC – can get it so obviously wrong .

    But – of course – if you fail to accept the theft in 2020 – and swallow liberal group think – you might believe that a dolt like Harris could win …. But don’t look for the election theft … eh jimmy boy ….

    BBC Verify wrong as as they backed the government narrative? Surely not!

    From Guido…

    ‘New figures have been produced by the Central Association of Agricultural Valuers on the Budget’s Farm Tax. Surprise surprise, the Treasury underestimated the number of farms affected by five times…

    The CAAV says that BBC Verify and the Treasury are wrong and 2,500 farms will be affected every year: “What they got wrong is, they didn’t know what to ask and HMRC couldn’t answer them even if they had.” They say HMT has missed out a substantial number of farmers who only claim BPR – farmers who own the land but not the farmhouse, for example, along with tenanted businesses. As everyone has been saying for some time now…’

    “The government has now incorporated counter terrorism policing into the Defence and Security Media Advisory Committee notice system. A D-Notice instructs news outlets not to print details which are considered sensitive for national security reasons.

    The system’s extension was “unanimously agreed” and effectively restricts newspapers or broadcasters from providing details to the public on matters of counter terror policing deemed sensitive by the government. An eyebrow-raising choice – D-Notices are usually for things like protecting the identity of intelligence officials or very specific ongoing military operations…”
