    From the BBC website today.

    “Abdelali Dallal is sentenced to eight years, but walks free today due to medical issues and will need to placed in a special jail, according to the judge.

    The 47-year-old is one of the few men who pleaded guilty, admitting he knew at the time that Gisèle Pelicot was given sleeping pills.”

    Oh so he’s one of the good ones then, BBC?

    and

    “Hassan Ouamou receives 12 years. The 30-year-old is currently on the run in Morocco. He has told investigators he has no intention of returning to France.”

    Funny how they suddenly don’t have a problem leaving Honkyland when they’re charged and sentenced for a crime.

    Although I will say this.

    All these lefty (white) middle class feminists out on the streets of France today are hypocrites. I fully expect our own purple-haired man haters to do the same shortly.

    They’re only out because the main perpetrator and the vast majority of his accomplices are white males.

    Had the main guy been black or brown, not one of these harridans would be out on the streets today.

    The thing is, they’d say I was a misogynist for calling them out for this.

    But the fact is this (and it is something you can use against them.)

    If you ask them, “Do you think that the men guilty of this awful crime should be executed?”

    They will say no. The death penalty is evil etc.

    You can then point out that they would not do more about ‘smashing toxic masculinity’ than you would, so they can just stfu about it

    “Mentality, Paris effect & Malta sun – inside Fury’s revenge bid”

    This weekends heavyweight boxing world title fight rematch Fury v Usyk .

    “Fury – who was saved by the bell in the ninth round – did not make excuses for his performance in the aftermath of the split-decision points loss.”

    Says some clueless BBC diversity hire stani, Kal Sajad.
    Fury even started making excuses right in the ring – along the lines that the judges favoured Ukraine.
    And he wasn’t saved by the bell in the 9th.
    He was saved by the referee.
    Fury was seemingly one punch away from being put to sleep. When the ref jumped in, deeming him considered already knocked down, but held up by the ropes.
    Gives him a count, then the usually time to prove he’s fit to continue, starts the fight, then the bell goes.

    Fury started to look like the middle aged fat bloke he almost is in that fight.

    I’d like him to win, but he’s not the fighter he was 4 years ago.

    I think he’ll be stopped inside 8 rounds.

    My tips are legendarily terrible, so you can now fully expect Fury to hit Usyk with an upper cut in the first 5 seconds and knock him into row 17.

    Rachel from Accounts has ‘shelved ‘ some sort of pension review which was meant to be a ‘priority ‘ . I reckon it’s in preparation for accelerating the increase in pension age once the waspi women thing is out of the way …

    There may be some legal action on waspi which some might hope the Marxists lose – putting more pressure on an ever struggling treasury ….
    The budget tax increases are nothing like what the Marxists need to get anywhere near their manifesto fantasy ……

    The BBC economics types must be in some difficulty avoiding this truth – although they are used to being economic with the truth …

    “Under the Pensions Act 2007 the State Pension age for men and women will increase from 67 to 68 between 2044 and 2046. The Pensions Act 2014 provides for a regular review of the State Pension age, at least once every five years.”

    No way are they going to take 20 odd years to get it up to 68.
    Someone has to keep working to support the immigrants.
    This WASPI thing stinks of government manufactured protest, to misdirect.

      Eddy – if I recall – each added year to the State pension saves the treasury £3 billion … so it must be on the ‘to do list ‘ for Rachel from accounts …

      … and it’s one of those where people shrug their shoulders – unlike the mad winter fuel thing which hits fast and directly …

      Mouths like Alan sugar – who moaned about getting the money should be ashamed …

    Posting to share and review the thread later.

    This is Jacqui Wakefield…

    She is a BBC “disinformation” reporter.
    Recently, she published an article, detailing how @StevenBartlett spreads “health misinformation”.
    In reality, she omitted a lot of key detail.
    This is how much of a shit show the BBC has become. Thread🧵

    Lovely smile, mind.

    A quick scan shows a lot of Graun, blue hair and booger snags. This is not optimal to approach open minded.

    Well, if the BIASED BBC won’t play it – to protect their pals in Labour – it behoves us to do so.

    I have a growing impression that Starmer, Streeting and Reeves all seem to come across with a bit of an AI generated aura.

    It couldn’t be could it?……….

    Or could it?………

    Switched by some foreign bad actor maybe?

    BBC front page news:
    Family’s £3,500 Lapland holiday dream shattered
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ckg3llqq41wo

    The holiday dream was shattered because it didn’t snow. That’s it.

    ‘A family who spent their life savings on a holiday to Lapland were left “stressed and disappointed” after the tour operator failed to cancel their trip due to a lack of snow.’

    Life savings on one holiday ?. Tut tut Federica, I think you just lied to try and spice up your pathetic article. Freerica also writes about LGBT so I suspect she is another quota-employee who has to be given something to do.

    Not on the BBC at all:
    Met Police overpower and arrest crazed knifeman who tried to murder two women
    https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/police-knife-attack-attempted-murder-women-b1200894.html

    ‘The attacker then told the women: “everyone in the room is going to die.”’
    ‘Eleto burst into the property in December 2023 and started stabbing the victim in her 30s before turning the knife onto the victim’s mother.’
    A man attempting to murder two women can make the big story of the day when it suits the BBC’s agenda. It will come as no surprise that this one didn’t when you see who did it:
