    Just signed the Petition to abolish the TV Licence Fee. I believe the BBC is corrupted by the vast amount that they receive from the LF. If they were warned the LF would be abolished at the next Licence Review, the BBC would have time to make economies ie. reduce the obscene salaries paid to Directors, Controllers and Presenters and put the money into a Trust. The trust could have investments which would pay an income to finance the future of the, now, fully independent BBC. If the luvvies who make a lot of money from the BBC wish to donate, they may give gifts to the Trust.

    After all, the BBC Radio used to have a LF all of its own. That was abolished without a problem but created the need for a much expanded BBC financed by an ever increasing TV Licence Fee. The TV Licence Fee is an anachronism and should be scrapped.

    @CliveMyrieBBC tweets
    GB News broadcasts half of all UK stories about Muslims, analysis shows 2,000 Likes vs 1,600 replies

    GBNews presenter @MartinDaubney
    Clive think this is a damning headline.
    In reality, @GBNEWS is doing the job the BBC & others are to chicken to tackle,
    esp on grooming gangs and jihadi terror threats.
    To tell uncomfortable truths.
    That’s why we exist!

    Too right .. it’s truly shameful that BBCnews gives hours of airtime to the non-illegal actions of GREG WALLACE
    but barely gives a minute to the astonishing establishment and Muslim community coverup of grooming gang crimes

    quoting the anti-GBnews report’s Foreword by Gavin Esler
    (my comments are in brackets)
    I had never seen it before, and it was a shock.
    I watched an hour of babble, switched off and called Prospect’s editor to refuse the assignment.
    Why would I watch weird commentators, amateurish presenters and mostly charisma-free politicians interviewing each other, agreeing with each other, and – as I noticed repeatedly – turning to one *constant theme*: the supposed dangers to the United Kingdom from Islam? (It’s not constant)
    It seemed obsessive nonsense, constantly suggesting
    Muslim citizens are somehow privileged in ways others are not.

    This is London, England, United Kingdom, run by mobs of terrorist supporting racist muslims, caught on video as well :

    “Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather is ‘attacked by mob’ while out shopping in London’s jewellery quarter – before being bundled into blacked-out 4×4 by guards.

    The source said Mayweather was out shopping when he was asked about whether he supported Israel.

    He then said he was ‘proud to support the Jews’, which provoked someone into taking a swing at him, the source added.

    ‘Floyd took a few hits during it, but his security was trying to push people back.

    ‘I couldn’t really see Floyd trying to throw any punches back. His guards were just trying to get distance between him and them.’

    Videos posted to X also claimed the boxer had caused anger over his comments about Israel.

    One person posted a video of the incident with the caption: ‘Floyd Mayweather chased out of Hatton Gardens in London. The public are angry over his comments and support for Israel.’

    The source close to Mayweather also told The Sun members of the crowd ‘used racial slurs’ towards him.”

      Its only racist terrorist supporting muslim mobs like YOU that are angry that Israel fights back, and fights back very effectively, to rescue it’s hostages and bring to justice those that killed and raped Israeli women and chidren.

      “Waiting for a statement from the Mayor saying how appalled he is and that visitors to London should never feel threatened.”

      “Hatton Garden isn’t the sort of area you would expect ‘mobs’ to hang out. I dread to think that they are there because the diamond stores & workshops are predominantly Jewish. That’s such a shame, those small family gem companies have been there for generations, since they had to escape the Russian pograms in the late 19th century.”

      “What is it that makes people,who have fled their own country because of discrimination against them, think it’s OK to live in our country,and then discriminate against others in this way? The Police brought this upon us by not acting decisively when they allowed hate filled marches to take place unchallenged.Unless it was the so called right wing, of course.”

      “Whatever your beliefs are on the Middle East – no one should ever feel That this behaviour is acceptable. This is all down to society allowing this type of agitator to believe they can pounce on anyone who disagrees with them or is a threat to their beliefs.

    The threat of Musk donating tens of millions to Reform has the UK establishment in panic mode. GB News is suggesting that emergency legislation may be rushed through to prevent foreigners making donations to political parties.But what ever the establishment does I’m sure that Musk will find a way of donating if he really wants to.
    It’s the same with media and internet censorship. The establishment can censor and erect barriers but they wont be able to stop the message from getting through and the people from knowing the truth.
    I think that the US election has holed the Globalist boat below the waterline. The entire liberal Globalist edifice relied on the voters never knowing the truth and being fed a diet of propaganda and soporific distraction. It was thus possible for the Globalists to convince voters that they lived in democracies when in fact they had no political choice at all as all political parties were infact just different wings of the Globalist Uniparty.

    Trump and Musk have ‘blown the bloody doors off ‘ that and the change can come quickly as the voters are awakened from their decades long legacy media induced slumber and realise the truth.
    For the first time in years I am optimistic that we may be able to throw off the yoke of Liberal Globalism and be able to salvage something from our badly damaged country and way of life. We don’t just live in interesting times but in exciting and hopeful times.

          I have great hopes for when Labour really are trounced, starting at the May elections which are only eighteen weeks away, and at a time when Labour councils will be slaughtered, there’ll be a fabulous uprising for Reform, and even the Conservatives, although they don’t deserve a bonus so early on in their recent inept handling of UK Inc.!

    Women left in agony by ‘medical misogyny’ – shouts the ever excitable Daily Mail: MPs’ report condemns gynaecological care crisis – and says GPs are often to blame… Doctors often have a poor understanding of women’s health

    But by the way…

    The NHS workforce in England… Gender. A higher proportion of GPs were female compared to male by headcount. (58% compared to 42%) When looking at FTE GPs, this split is more even (53% and 47%) as female GPs work fewer hours on average.

    Middle-class women are hooked on fairy porn (Telegraph)

    In case you were wondering: The top audiobook of 2024 was a racy ‘romantasy’ novel about ‘sexy fairies’. How did this niche genre take over publishing? A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas, a retelling of Beauty and the Beast where Belle is a spunky, cool protagonist called Feyre, the Beast is the alluring and mysterious High Lord faerie, Tamlin, and unsexy side characters like Cogsworth and Mrs Potts are also darker and more interesting. The book is a frontrunner in the new ‘romantasy’ – romance and fantasy – trend that is capturing the attention of everyone from Margot Robbie and Dua Lipa down to, well, me. Or, as many of the book’s most ardent fans are calling it, ‘fairy porn’… romantasy – imagine what Lord of the Rings’ Aragorn and Arwen, in full velvet and gossamer, might get up to in a quiet moment in Rivendell… Sarah J. Maas has blasted a hole in traditional publishing. She posted her first novel (which eventually became Throne of Glass) at the age of 16 on a popular fan fiction site, where it quickly became one of the most popular stories on there. Like ACOTAR, it is a front-footed retelling of a fairytale, Cinderella, where Cinders is actually at the ball to assassinate Prince Charming (Cleo Watson, Telegraph)

          Fully Automated Luxury Communism promises a radically new left future for everyone.

          “The first decade of the twenty-first century marked the demise of the current world order. Despite widespread acknowledgement of these disruptive crises, the proposed response from the mainstream remains the same. Against the confines of this increasingly limited politics, a new paradigm has emerged. Fully Automated Luxury Communism claims that new technologies will liberate us from work, providing the opportunity to build a society beyond both capitalism and scarcity. Automation, rather than undermining an economy built on full employment, is instead the path to a world of liberty, luxury and happiness. For everyone. In his first book, radical political commentator Aaron Bastani conjures a new politics: a vision of a world of unimaginable hope, highlighting how we move to energy abundance, feed a world of nine billion, overcome work, transcend the limits of biology and build meaningful freedom for everyone. Rather than a final destination, such a society heralds the beginning of history. Fully Automated Luxury Communism promises a radically new left future for everyone.”

    “The 50 men accused in mass rape of Gisèle Pelicot”

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cr7vvj8gymyo

    ‘ France’s rape law defines rape as any sexual act committed by “violence, coercion, threat or surprise”; it has no reference to any need for consent.
    Therefore, they also argue they cannot be guilty of rape because they were unaware Gisèle Pelicot was not in a position to give her consent. ‘

    Does that make sense to anyone?

    “Among them are firefighters, lorry drivers, soldiers, security guards, a journalist and a DJ.”

    But it takes the unemployed man to come up with the best defence:

    “Redouane A, an unemployed man aged 40, argued that if he had set out to rape Gisèle he would not have allowed her husband to take videos.”

    Begs the question why would any of them let themselves be openly filmed in any circumstances.

    An 18 year old Brit has been sentenced to 1 year in jail in Dubai for having sex with a 17 year old girl while on holiday.

    Now personally I think it’s a bit harsh. But on the other hand he was in Dubai and should you not respect the laws and culture of a country you are visiting? I would say yes.

    So why are the UK authorities so unwilling to require asylum seekers and immigrants to the UK to do exactly the same?.

    Well the self styled “muslim council of britain” used to have an open website, it is now hidden to non members.

    Why ? you may well ask, well when it was open you can see what they are up to:

    They were, for example, running workshops teaching people how to complain en mass with any media stories they didn’t like and how to word their complaints etc etc.

    That’s only ONE example, God only knows what they are all up to behind closed doors now.

    And that is very likely why the media are wary, hundreds and thousands of them complaining via emails about things they don’t like to see, no doubt instructed to tell each and every one of them and all members of their families and mosques to do the same.

      Immigration on the scale we’ve seen has been deliberate.

      It seems to have been allowed to continue to push up demand for housing and decrease supply.

      Landlords (and politicians – many of whom are ‘sponsored’ by construction companies or are landlords themselves) get rich. Do you think they want demand to go down? Really?

      So now, if a young lad or lass wants to live in London on one wage (because loads of women seem to want to sh#g about until they’re 35 nowadays – glad I’m not a young man in today’s world) they can.
      Really, I don’t know what the fuss is all about.

      What’s wrong with living with 20 other people, mostly of immigrant stock? You get your own ‘room’ slightly bigger than your single bed and get to give 70% of your earnings to the landlord after working 60 hours and travelling to work on overpriced and overcrowded trains – if they’re not on strike, of course,!

      Youngsters are just too fussy nowadays.

      Although most young people I meet seem to gasp in horror if you tell them that mass immigration and greedy politicians have created this housing crisis. And that the only way they’ll ever get affordable housing is to do mass deportations.

      If they refuse to see this or call me the bad guy for pointing this out, then I have no sympathy, sorry.

    It seems to be the annual ‘BBC Misandry Day’ today.

    ‘Medical misogyny leaves women in pain for years, say MPs’
    If asked whether any males are left in pain for years for any treatments by the NHS, the BBC might reply : ‘F*ck knows. We don’t care about that.’

    ”The club should be equal’ – what’s going on with Man Utd Women?’
    What’s going on BBC is that they are NOT equal. Otherwise there would not be separate teams.

    ‘Women cops forging ties for life with the sex trafficking victims they rescue’
    What a nonsense, ambiguous headline.

    But this is the best one:
    ‘My childhood sweetheart took £42k from me’
    And of course it is a man defrauding a woman.
    It’s a ridiculously long article full of the kind of lop-sided tripe we might expect from Panorama and written by a BBC clone ‘Amy Johnstone’ who on better days writes about K-Pop.
    So I looked down the article to see whether – in the interests of not looking like some misandrist activist ranting – they give us some real world statistics about how often women rip men off as opposed to what happened in this cherry-picked example.
    And of course it’s not there. because the truth is far too inconvenient for the misandry and empathy packed into this one.

    Another black racist:

    “Outgoing Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y., posted a lengthy screed directed at “White people” Tuesday in the wake of Daniel Penny’s acquittal in the death of Jordan Neely.

    On May 1, 2023, Penny confronted Neely, a 30-year-old homeless man with schizophrenia who had an active arrest warrant at the time and a history of violence, as he was shouting death threats on the subway. With the assistance of other passengers, Penny restrained Neely with a chokehold, but Neely later died.

    Outraged that a jury found Penny not guilty of criminally negligent homicide, Bowman took to X in his final days in office to write a thread that began, “Dear White People.”

    “I don’t know why I feel the need to keep talking to you,” the “Squad” member continued. “I don’t know why part of me still has hope for you and for us. Some of you are too far gone. But maybe enough of you aren’t and will join us in fighting to end white supremacy.”
