    The new rulers of Cambodia call 1975 “Year Zero”, the dawn of an age in which there will be no families, no sentiment, no expressions of love or grief, no medicines, no hospitals, no schools, no books, no learning, no holidays, no music, no song, no post, no money – only work and death.

          https://notalotofpeopleknowthat.wordpress.com/2025/01/13/bbc-try-to-wriggle-out-of-extreme-weather-claims/

          “What it boils down to is the BBC are just repeating the unsubstantiated claims of the ‘experts’ at WWA, without bothering to do due diligence, presumably because WWA are the experts after all, but also because the know-it-alls at BBC Verify are too thick to challenge the ‘science’ of extreme weather attribution being peddled by outfits like WWA – not that they would be inclined to do so anyway. As such, they are either wilfully or unwittingly, but either way, negligently repeating misinformation without doing due diligence, something which they accuse the ‘far right’ and ‘conspiracy theorists’ of doing all the time. But good luck with trying to get them to admit that is what they are doing.”

    Four councils back motion to classify ‘Asian grooming gangs’ as an Islamophobic term
    Oxford, Newcastle, Manchester, and Calderdale councils are expected to back a report claiming the phrase perpetuates harmful stereotypes
    https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/grooming-gang-asian-racist-islamaphobic-term-council-b1204211.html

    ‘Asian grooming gangs’ …. change to ‘‘Asian rape gangs’ so it is not Islamophobic!???!?!

    “However, the move has been criticised by others, including shadow home secretary Chris Philp – who pointed out that Oxford, Newcastle, Manchester and Calderdale are all areas where young white girls have been raped.”

    Lol…I see this was mentioned yesterday by Stewgreen on this site…..

    ‘Who is Ivor Caplin? Former Labour MP who criticised Elon Musk, now embroiled in child sex scandal’

    Curiously still no sign of it on the BBC website. What might have been said in a BBC editorial meeting? Maybe something like….’We shouldn’t report this as it will make critics of Musk seem like they have something to hide which is why they attack him so hard…it may give credence to Musk’s comments…we’ll cover it, briefly, only when it gets too big to ignore…and then we’ll downplay and discredit the story’.

    Just guessing.

    Attempted murder charge after nurse stabbed
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5yvrl0x8j9o

    … and finally – after the standard 48 hours delay for the story to die down a bit – we are told the name of the barabrian who stabbed the nurse in Manchester ….

    Drum roll please …

    Rumon Haque

    We aren’t told anything else of course because of racist discrimination and the need to ‘protect’ the murderers from people who might get angry.

    But google tells me the name ‘Haque’ is:
    ‘A common last name in Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh’

    Our country is in a desperate state now and needs to suppress any negative information about all the immigrants we have taken from 3rd world shitholes.

    And the longer they do it, the more of them arrive and the more the Leftist apologists such as the BBC need to do it. It became a self-sustaining, non-recoverable path towards catastrophe long ago. We are nearing the end-game and they have no idea what to do about it. So they have doubled-down and now we are being actively oppressed by a desperate far-Left government.

    Tim Stanley in the DT writing a column about paki rapist gangs . WARNINB – if you have high blood pressure don’t read it because the Stanley kid has Lost His Way and Moral Compass …
    STARTS Whenever there’s a story about Muslims breaking the law, a reader writes me an email with the sarcastic subject heading “nothing to do with Islam”. I’ve become a bête-noire for a certain type: “dhimmi Timmy” who publicly insists that Islam isn’t a problem either because I’m wet, ignorant or trying to keep in with the establishment (who exactly?! Sadiq Khan?). As the centre-Right embraces the language of civilisational conflict and deportations – catalysed by the grooming gang scandal – I find myself defending a small island of cosmopolitan conservatism.

    Why do I do it? Because I’m old-fashioned. I believe the state should leave religious citizens alone, even if they hate it, and though I’d limit immigration to the tens of tens, I take the view that once you’re here, you’re part of the family. I might loathe Shamima Begum, for example, but the notion that because her parents are Bangladeshi we can revoke her citizenship is deeply troubling. Blood and soil stuff. Not very British.

    Begum is undeniably an example of how evil ideas or backward cultures can create the impetus for human beings to do bad things, but those who claim Islam justifies murder or rape risk putting themselves on common intellectual ground with terrorists – and at odds with the millions of Muslims who abhor both. Where in the Koran does it order men to ply children with alcohol and drugs and sodomise them? I await the letters.

    If we are saying “Islam is behind this”, we also have the problem of France. There 51 men have been found guilty of raping an unconscious housewife: all ages and backgrounds. Unable to pin it on Muhammed, the defence latched on to their clients’ high sex drives and addiction to porn, as if they were victims of the opposite cultural context to that found in rural Pakistan.

    Discussing Rotherham on GB News, an ex-Labour MP told me that gang-rape was a potential consequence of Muslim sexual repression, much as Catholic celibacy fuelled paedophilia. Yet in France, we learn that rape is the fruit of libertarianism …

    The sordid truth is that it is a human problem, that sexual assault has occurred at all times in all places. Emphasising Islamic theology removes a little agency from the rapists – as if they had been brainwashed – and distracts from the fallen state of man, his moral vulnerability. Though I agree that Western civilisation is generally good, I cannot shake off its responsibility for the Holocaust – a culmination or deviation, I don’t know – or the fear that it might happen again, precisely because the influence of civilisational values is skin deep.

    The historian Christopher Browning, in his 1992 book Ordinary Men, documented the crimes of Reserve Police Battalion 101, which was invited – not compelled at gunpoint – to round up and kill Jews. Browning observed that a portion declined; a larger one reluctantly took part; a smaller group enjoyed it. These were not classic, indoctrinated Nazis. They were ordinary family men, few of whom immediately exhibited great anguish.

    Browning’s point is that during and after the war, they almost uniformly suppressed any stress: but at their trials, some broke down, and one committed suicide – because people found out what they’d done!

    Faith is about worship and submission, but also the exercise of a God-given conscience – an ongoing effort to figure out what one is supposed to do. In this sense, the Christians of 101 and the Muslim rapists not only broke religious commandments but were never living authentically religious lives. Desire and conformity filled the gap where the conscience should have flourished.

    A healthy civilisation acknowledges the capacity of man to be evil and designs society to mitigate it, through education, art, laws or shame, and the worrying thing is that Britain seems to be giving up on this. It has no moral programme, no animating spirit. Muslims very much do – and that is a reason to admire them. Muslim MPs spoke up against assisted suicide. Muslims have reacted with unity against the killing of Palestinians – while millions of Jesus-fans turn a blind eye to the murder of Christians in Nigeria.

    The UK trundles along with superficial values that psychopaths can exploit, even deploying the race card to deter scrutiny. How pathetic to cry at this late stage “we’ve been invaded!” when we’ve opened the gates, torn down the protections and hollowed out the spiritual core of the country to the point where sexual abuse was considered a fact of life in major cities, including by white officials we laughingly call “cultural Christians”.

    Reading about the Oxford case, I discovered that the gang used to rape girls at a fleapit hotel called the Nanford. Twenty years ago, that’s where I used to stay whenever I visited the university. I was shaken by the possibility that the other side of my bedroom wall, that was going on.

    Why did I lodge there? Because I was a poor student and it was cheap, and Oxford is a city of wealth and poverty so extreme that the meeting point between the two – ie, a safe, affordable hotel – has been priced out of the market. This is a metaphor for Britain. It is a country so divided, so lacking a healthy middle ground of cultural exchange, that we can live within inches of each other yet remain as strangers. Let’s not open that gulf further by ostracising good Muslims.ENDS

      …. and ask the moderates what they think…..

      “…BBC poll in 2015 found that 27% of British Muslims had quote ‘Some sympathy’ (27% or a third) for the people who went into the offices of Charlie Hebdo and killed the cartoonists, editors and journalists there. Channel 4 poll from last year (2015), found that only 1% of UK Muslims think that publications should have the right to publish the cartoons of Mohammed.”

          “In other words, Islam isn’t just compatible with Western values; it started to espouse and establish them long before western democracies. Islamic and Western values are one and the same, and they have been for longer than you could possibly imagine.“

          “The Prophet Mohammed declared all men were free – no one being superior to another except by way of righteous conduct. He further took great steps to abolish slavery and liberate women across the Arab world whose status as chattel was widespread. This was long before similar battles were won in the West against unjust slavery and for the liberation of women.”

        Those poll results are completely bogus. Does anyone really believe that, when asked by British pollsters if they support the savage murders of journalists, muslims will reply honestly – knowing how that will sound to British ears? Of course not.

        If they were asked the same questions when back in Pakistan, the answers would be very different indeed.

      Stanley’s probably thinking of converting…he’s already gone through a few versions of Christianity.

      What he misses is that they targeted the girls because they weren’t Muslim…they were ‘white trash’…or Sikh or Hindu. If they’d targeted Muslim girls they’d have been strung up from lamp posts.

      And as for the Koran authorising such stuff…of course it does…it promises not just land and riches for Muslims who fight the good fight but women as well…sex slaves….just ask the Yazidis. Non-Muslim women can be taken as sex slaves.

      I stopped reading that article as soon as I saw ‘nothing to with Islam’. Tim instantly made a naive idiot of himself.

      It has everything to do with Islam. Those ‘good Muslim men’ feel absolutely justified in using these white girls for their own pleasure because they do not conform to Islamic rules for women – ie they wear makeup and show bare skin. It’s the worst kind of racist hate : they consider their ‘victims’ to be worthless.

      They key indicator which everyone like Tim is choosing to ignore is that these rape gangs are not warped individuals who know it’s wrong and do it in secret – they are large groups of men who all think Islam approves of it and know none of the others will grass them up to the infidels. That’s why it’s a national disgrace that it is swept under the carpet by people like Starmer.

    Asking AI (ChatGPT) about it’s future project …

    Question “The recent Postal Horizon scandal shows that projects can run for a long time and even mean people are jailed, die in jail, when corporations and politicians lie or hide information. It took a tv programme for this scandal to be revealed – why will this be different especially when AI might be used to cover the tracks?”

    The Post Office Horizon scandal is a sobering example of how long-running projects, when poorly managed and cloaked in secrecy, can lead to devastating consequences. The scandal underscores how systems designed to improve efficiency and accountability can instead become instruments of harm if misused or if failures are concealed. Your concerns about the potential for AI to be used to obscure rather than illuminate truth are valid, especially given AI’s capacity for automating decisions and generating persuasive but misleading narratives.

    Why Could AI Pose Similar Risks?
    Opacity of AI Systems:

    Many AI models, especially those based on machine learning, are considered “black boxes,” making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. This lack of transparency could be exploited to obscure errors or misconduct.
    AI for Narrative Control:

    AI could potentially be used to generate false records, manipulate public perception, or even suppress evidence, compounding the problem of accountability.
    Complexity Enables Denial:

    Just as the Post Office relied on the complexity of the Horizon system to dismiss complaints, AI systems could similarly be weaponized to deny blame, with corporations or governments deflecting responsibility onto “the algorithm.”
    Biases and Errors:

    AI systems can perpetuate biases and errors, disproportionately harming vulnerable groups, much like the Post Office scandal disproportionately affected sub-postmasters.

    reference: https://www.gov.uk/government/news/prime-minister-sets-out-blueprint-to-turbocharge-ai

    What You Can Do:
    Advocate for Transparency:
    Push for mandatory, publicly accessible audits of government AI projects.
    Demand AI Regulation:
    Support initiatives that require ethical frameworks and accountability in AI systems.
    Encourage Media Scrutiny:
    Highlight the role of investigative media in exposing potential misuse of AI.

    Criminal liability should extend to executives and politicians who knowingly mislead the public or suppress evidence.
