Evening all!
I thought I’d pop in to wish everyone a peaceful and escalation-free next few days.
If Trump and Vance want a change from politics, I reckon they have the makings of a mighty fine tag wrestling team.
I know it’s not the Hamas Broadcasting Symposium, but did anybody catch the new Bergerac? Paki chief constable, black senior officer, Bergerac, white but a drunk and not a very nice person allegedly. Bring back John Nettles, wooden but white.
I believe Jersey is a vibrant multicultural society these days, so that is to be expected. After all, who do you believe, TV or your lying eyes?
In re: the Hamas child documentary.
Theres a couple of words to describe the (in) actions of the BBC and people of other devious institutions like the civil service :
Culpable ignorance.
A sin according to the Catholic Church.

You’ve been on the tinctures again, last time I spoke like that I had to do a breath test and phone and computer confiscated for six months.
Not guilty BTW but if they like Felix the cat photos they would be happy.
Why do I get a feeling about Donald Trump and Starmer
I wish I understood what we saw at the White House today. I remember reading 3 years ago in an article from 2017 that there had been far more Western interference in Ukraine than we had ever known. We now know that there was no logical reason why Hunter Biden was on the Board of Barisma and knowing that colours our understanding of Ukraine under the previous administration. The problem is where to go for considered analysis of today’s events. We know that the BBC cannot be trusted. I will be watching, listening and thinking to some of the posts here and other sites with a dose of GB News. But knowing how much USAID on behalf of the Democrats went into the media I will need to be careful to whom I listen.
Was Trump being brutally honest and saying openly what Zelensky and his supporters needed to hear or was he a badly informed bully?
Authors opinions on what happened just seem to go along ‘party lines’ of which one they support..
Agree Deborah.
I’m very confused. If there were such large differences in the opinions both sides why have a public Q and A in which they would be exposed?
Surely both sides agreed the topics they were willing to discuss in public before the Q and A and those topics which were to be closed to questioners ‘ as details are still to be agreed’ .
Zelensky really doesn’t have many cards tp play without US backing and won’t get much extra from Europe to backfill the hole left if the US pulls out. He didn’t like the deal Trump was offering but it’s the only one on the table and nobody else has the clout to make a deal with Putin.
Journalists and politicians in Europe will exhort Ukraine to fight on even though there is no chance of a better peace settlement being wrung out of Putin.
Let’s hope that Starmer, Macron etal don’t get too belligerent.
You’re not much wrong Debs, there is / was a democratically elected president of Ukrain, now in exile,
He refused to join the EU, and, all of a sudden there was an “uprising” against him… go figure.
All those Ukrainains suddenly, overnight, beacame politically motivated.
Remember that Trump was impeached because of Ukraine. He asked Zelensky to investigate Hunter Biden’s role at Burisma. He never did. Then a Ukrainian-American army officer who was in on the phone call, reported Trump for some imagined crime, which ended up with Mad Nancy Pelosi impeaching him.
This impeachment, which failed of course, was the start of the Democratic Party’s lawfare against Trump, which has cost him hundreds of millions of dollars and great vexation. And it all started with Zelensky. Trump does not forget things like that. If Zelensky had helped him out and exposed Biden’s corruption in Ukraine, the Democrats would not have been able to steal the 2020 election, and Ukraine would never have been invaded.
Debs, Boris aggrandised himself at our expense in Ukraine, blowing £billions that we cannot afford, just to appear in ‘battledress’ for MSM photos!
a complicated road to a better destination ?
‘GB News defeats Ofcom in legal battle over Jacob Rees-Mogg show’
Remarkable how quickly the BBC has dropped the news that GB News defeats Ofcomm….especially considering the fact Ofcom had pronounced GB News guilty originally was such a big story for the BBC…and now the latest news has vanished after a few hours from the main pages.
No news is obviously good news for the BBC…and no GB News would be even better for them.
The amount of sheer hate and spite by the Left on social media is quite shocking. Facebook thrust a thread about Elon Musk at me the other day and it was full of the same spiteful-schoolboy type comments I saw on the BBC when the troll-farm was engaged and what filled the DT comments before Brexit.
The thing about their comments is that they don’t pick any specific thing, they just absolutely hate the person. It’s so typical of the Left and maxi did it all the time here : they go for the man, not the ball. The thread about Elon was full of people basically saying he should be ‘removed’ from the world.
What annoys me most about that is that the likes of the BBC NEVER go near that. Instead they focus on things they can use to attack the Right. But it’s all that hate these Leftist activists spread which has created this massive divide in society. They really would send us all to concentration camps if they had the power.
The most interesting thing though is when I go checking the facebook pages for some of them. They are ALWAYS the same : a long list of re-posting the usual anti-Right/Anti-Trump political memes which other activists have made – and they get a couple of ‘likes’ at best. But even though nobody likes what they post, they keep on doing it again and again.
The glasses, always the glasses, humans were not born wth the inability to see, what’s gone wrong ?
The difference between the right and left, glasses
The classic definition of a fascist was basically someone who supresses the opinions of other people.
As that became more and more applicable to the Left, I noticed it they changed it and reworded it to specifically apply to the ‘far-right’.
Same as the word ‘Islamphobia’. They made up the label because it is concise and nasty sounding – then simply changed the meaning of the words to be what suited them. They SHOULD say ‘anti-Islam’ but that didn’t sound strong enough for them.
And why is REAL racism against Jews call ‘anti-semetism’ ?. It’s racism in it’s purest form – yet they don’t use it. Instead they use the word willy-nilly against the Right for everything. Quite how you can be ‘racist’ against Islam I don’t know. And people are called it simply for criticising any BAME.
This is how the Left work. They are the most stupendous of double-standard hypocrites.
John,
You might like to take a look at this vid:
What a joke – particularly if you know a bit of history about how Hitler rose to chancellor and the circumstances of Germany / Europe at that time . These people shouid find something more useful to do .
Smug krauts like her shouid spend their time preparing for potential trouble caused by Putin as he attempts to push NATO back – or even better for him – destroying it …
The Nazi card is being used more an dmore by the Left to create a false equivalence between Hitler and the Right. First they started calling everybody ‘far-right’ and now they are equating them to the Nazis.
It’s absolute nonsense. What we on the Right stand for is nothing whatsoever like what Hitler stood for. The real equivalence is how the Left are dealing with the Right. They are trying very hard to make the Right like like ‘untermencsh’ or ‘a lower form of person’ to create the kind of hatred I see so often nowadays by the Left against any prominent Right-wing people. Opinion polls are so often wrong because people feel ashamed to admit they are Right-wing these days. But the vote shows the truth.
Nazi means ‘National Socialist’. Hard Left. Driven by ideological hatred. Just the same as they are today.
We didn’t really realise the agenda when the term *far right’ started to be used that there was probably a plan to gradually apply its meaning to anything the far left wanted it to mean.
I haven’t seen anyone described as ‘right wing’ on the BBC for a long time now. They are always far-Right.
Just as I haven’t seen anyone being called ‘left wing’ except for the odd foreign election. They have ‘normalised’ being left-wing and are trying to associate the right with extremism.
I’ve taken to constantly referring to them as far left and it infuriates them, you can almost see the steam coming out of their ears. When I get the far right thrown at me the response is “anyone right of Stalin is far right in your opinion “ then they go off sounding like a moped “but but but”. It’s the little things in life that make it worth while.
I now refer to anyone Left wing (such as the BBC) as ‘extreme Left’ MrsK.
It sounds better than ‘far-Left’ to me and it’s just playing them at their own game.
I’ve watched the ‘interaction ‘ between Zelenski and DJT and DT a couple of times now …. These were the mistakes
1 Zelenski shouid have worn a suit
2 he shouid have used an interpreter
3 he shouid have not been coked up
4 shouid have had a shave
5 shouid have thanked America for the support
6 shouid have made nice with DJT and his VP
7 not called the VP a bitch
8 not argued in front of the media
9 apologised
Zelenski is now coming to his mates in Europe – are they going to wrap their arms around him ? And are they going to treat him like a bad smell ?
The meeting is in London on Sunday – it could easily become the end of NATO . The EU will sneer about DTJ and JD but promise and give nothing ….
And if it goes the way I think – the US president won’t be impressed and the consequences could be big ….
Yesterday I said I expected Russia to go into full on attack – but maybe – now – he ll sit on his hands for a bit …
Today
As expected – BBC – trump wrong – Zelenski right . Big mistake – and will be compounded on Sunday when TTK and Macron and the European rabble strut their stuff – but have no actual power to follow up in real military support for Ukraine .
Putin must sniff a real victory taking the whole of Ukraine and de stabilising other NATO members on the border with mother Russia ….
It’s more interesting for the BBC … which is all that matters ..
The end result of this is to make Putin start to think he can win this war now. I could not believe how Zelensky kept trying to talk over Trump like a stubborn child.
After all the hot air, the EU and Zelensky will fold and come begging back to Trump. But the BBC won’t report much about it, it will just happen.
JohnC
And I noticed that the whole ‘interaction ‘ took place in front of the bust of Winston Churchill -who looked suitably grim ….
It was very obvious 3 years ago that the whole European rabble and NATO officials had thought that there would never have to be difficult decision making to be done. They were obviously there for the posturing, the ‘aren’t I important’, the dinners, the large salaries and the opportunities to feather their own nests. They are obviously incompetants who haven’t a clue what to do.
Debs, I think we should all spare a thought for all those kidults having to say what they’re told by the sixth floor in W1AA, and having to ‘work’ on a Sunday!
As you say, there’ll be plenty of strutting, pompous egotisitics milling around a subject they will never agree on, and the pics in the gardens of No10 will be awash with smarmy fake smiles! (If they’re not, the Beeboids will photoshop them in anyway, just to please TTK, and make him feel important)!
Hello Scroblene – I reckon Zelenski will wear a suit when he turns up for the euro bash ‘hosted ‘( ugh) by TTK – with growler serving the whisky ….
Fed I think he’ll go the full camouflage, trousers and top just to try and show he’s not intimidated by President Trump. That’ll make the whole bunch of them start dribbling in awe. No mention of more equipment and money that he’ll be demanding.
I have a feeling they’ll arrange a standing ovation for him as he enters for one single reason : to spite Trump.
Prearranged. Not spontaneous. A lie in other words.
The BBC are very quiet on the EU’s new goal to become the worlds biggest super-power. They have been waiting for an excuse for a long time.
Yes – maybe paddy power will do an accumulator – combat outfit yes / no – round of applause – yes / no .. how many bitchy remarks about DJT and JD … n=more than 3 …? You know the thing
…… I hope it goes really badly with TTK being shown for what he is – no friend of the current US – and – in fact – an enemy of the freedom it respresnts ..

‘I think the suspicion has to be this may well have been a form of diplomatic mugging’
International Editor Jeremy Bowen spoke to #BBCBreakfast after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky clashed with US President Donald Trump and Vice-President JD Vance in extraordinary exchanges in the Oval Office
The ‘suspicions’ of ‘thinkers’ like JezBo in national broadcasting outfits who can easily sway pea brained pols has brought us to this point. And why is the Head of The Gaza Propaganda Corps now distanced from their £400k drama docos?
No wonder the dead tree and dead air activists have been trying to suppress Musk, even as they still try and play their games on X.
It is clear now that their boy Zorro screwed the pooch by playing to his favourite gallery, in the room and beyond, and forgot he was trying to negotiate with actual national leaders with a people’s mandate and not sound bite minnows with a PPE degree in grifting.
And the gallery forgot that a global audience can access beyond their agenda edits and form views on our own.
I’ll leave a summary to but one of those who seem able to appreciate a fuller picture and take the time to do so with a grasp of history. And reality.
https://x.com/konstantinkisin/status/1895610683103781075?s=61
Or you can stick with what gets rushed out in the kindergarden edit suites featuring activists from oafs like JezBo or Nazi Hunters like Campbell, Glenda’s Boy or the QT tea lady Olga from Kviv.
Hitler did not have the AN602 when he risked the Blitztkrieg. Or the S-500 system. So things are a smidge more complicated.
But yes, the CIA maybe did off JFK and two attempts have been made on a guy not part of the complex that dropped Ukraine right in it a while ago.
But sure, give Clive of Kviv Hilton a 👍🏽 for his ‘insights’ via bbc edit suite too. 8 comments in 2 hrs.

All worth considering. But I’d advise not doing a Davey by jerking a knee to get on BBC Politics Today but maybe not Tomorrow.
Guest – I heard the Bowen theory – which doesn’t play because the US wants that mining contract …. There is a question as to why that exchange was allowed to continue – knowing that Zelenski was ‘jet lagged ‘ – aka white powder addiction …. But DTJ and Vance don’t take prisoners – so when Zelenski kicked off he deserved the exit door …
It’s something of a red letter day today – Yaki dah, to all our lovable Welsh choir boys hereabouts, by the way – but I was thinking more of the red top tabloid The Sun winning top spot in the gynaeceum that is BBC news staff’s online print press line-up this morning.
What sort of heroic tabloid headline might attract our BBC, we wonder?
Ukraine hero ambushed… The Fight House… Tense… Trump scolds Zelensky (The Sun)
Now they do say “The first rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club. The second rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club!”
Our British BBC clutches its pearls and reaches for the smelling salts before it faints clean away – on behalf of… Ukraine, apparently: What it was like in the room during Oval Office shouting match (Myroslava Petsa and Daniel Wittenberg, BBC Ukrainian, in the Oval Office)
The day began with the same cordial routine the White House reserves for visiting foreign dignitaries… So far, so diplomatic… what erupted was unprecedented to say the least. The genial tone devolved into acrimony and chaos. Voices were raised, eyes rolled, aspersions cast – and all in front of the world’s TV cameras. (BBC)
A very undiplomatic scene. This sort of stuff is supposed to be confined behind closed doors.
However, say what you like about The Donald but he is about the most open to the press of any president that’s ever been. I heard of a stat yesterday that Trump had already answered over 1,300 questions from reporters since taking office, whereas Biden answered just 300-odd questions during his entire presidency.
And as we’ve learned, our own stuffed-shirt of a PM, Sir Keir Starmer, gets rather shirty with interviewers when they ask questions he doesn’t seem to like asked – and as for our celebrated Mastermind foreign secretary – and I’ve started this comparison – so I’m going to finish… Lammy famously made more passes than one of Georgie Best’s dollybird girlfriends received when she watched a match from the terraces.
Trump and Zelensky may disagree but the British Sun and the Labour-supporting Mirror are in heroic accord: Ukraine hero is forced home without a deal (Mirror)
He ain’t a hero – he’s a zero. A jumped-up TV actor, a (spent) US State Department asset, who’s been fronting up the Biden crime family money coin-op laundromat.
By the way: “Third rule of Fight Club: someone yells “stop!”, goes limp, taps out, the fight is over.”
‘My son was 18 and went to Ukraine as cannon fodder’ James Wilton was just 18 years old when he volunteered to fight for Ukraine months after finishing college. It was a decision he made with conviction and passion – but it was one which led to his death. The teenager from Huddersfield was killed in a drone attack in the village of Terny on the eastern front. (BBC)
A US president keen for PEACE…? We can’t be having that.
Our regime-central mouthpiece Times has at last to admit the realpolitik when it quotes The Donald’s Zelensky put down: “He feels our involvement gives him a big advantage in negotiations. I don’t want advantage. I want PEACE”
Politician determined to deliver what he promised his voters? – we can’t be having that.
Shouting match in Oval Office: Trump tries to humiliate Zelensky live on TV – complains the junior poundshop Guardian that is i news
To misquote John Lennon “All we are saying is give WAR a chance”
European leaders rally behind Zelenskyy after stunning Trump clash – protests the bona fide Guardian
Other exotic spellings of the name Zelensky are available – although apparently any alternative foreign policy other than endless costly proxy war is not.
European Union chiefs Ursula von der Leyen and Antonio Costa assured Zelenskyy that he was “never alone”. “Be strong, be brave, be fearless,” wrote the European commission and council presidents (Guardian)
In other (local) news: Salford Bigfoot terror (Daily star)
No, that isn’t: Manchester Police officers paid a house call to a 54-year-old grandmother, Helen Jones, simply for daring to criticise Labour councillors on Facebook. (Darren Grimes, Facebook)
This is in fact: Girl ‘saw Bigfoot’ after skipping school in Salford – he has a ‘great jawline but scary’…”Maybe naughtiest thing I’d taken, was maybe a cigarette?” (Daily Star) – best run home to your mum if he invites you back to his kebab shop, luv.
Starmy loves nice beavers! – claims the Star
The most working class leader of the Labour party for a generation, he is well ahead in the polls, but still a mystery to many. – hinted the Gruan way back in February 2024.
One thing the white house popcorn show achieved was to divert attention to the Marxist annaleesa doody show – she must have planned to pop up and tour the studios saying about how important it is to throw taxpayers cash at DEI in bongo bongo land
But with the imminent end of NATO and increasing war on the Eastern Front – who wants to hear from some self harming nobody ?
Cuts to national parks and forests met with backlash as summer nears (BBC)
Oh dear, that’s going to a crimp in the effort to decolonise and multiculturalise our racist British countryside.
The Trump administration’s steep cuts to staff at national parks, forests and wildlife habitats have triggered a growing backlash (Max Matza, BBC News, Reporting from Seattle, Washington)
Oh, so this is news from America – from a reporter based in the uber-Democrat city of Seattle.
Washington State 2024 general election results: U.S. Sen. Maria Cantwell won reelection over Republican challenger Dr. Raul Garcia. Attorney General Bob Ferguson was elected as Washington’s next governor, a result that extended the gubernatorial winning streak for Democrats to four decades (The Seattle Times)
…worries what the cuts will mean for the future of public safety and how people experience US parks and forests, especially ahead of the busy spring and summer months when millions travel to visit. (BBC)
Parks and Recreation is an American political satire mockumentary television sitcom… Leslie Knope, a mid-level bureaucrat, wishes to help a local nurse, Ann, convert a disused construction site into a community park but deals with red-tapism and self-centred neighbours… The absurd antics of an Indiana town’s public officials as they pursue sundry projects… The writers researched local California politics for the series and consulted with urban planners and elected officials (Thank you Wiki, IMDb etc)
“Here we have Victoria Nuland in 2016, openly testifying before Congress about just how deep the US was in running Ukraine’s government after the 2014 coup.
She laid it all out: US advisors embedded in 12 Ukrainian ministries, American-trained police in 18 cities, the US Treasury shutting down 60 Ukrainian banks while shielding depositors’ assets, and a cool $266 million spent on training Ukrainian soldiers.
“Unprovoked”

This is the 2nd month in a row that this has happened.
They’re all ‘dodgy’ again and its mostly all to do with the manipulations of the Gold “market” and in particular the ETF’s.
Just in case anyone is interested but doesn’t know where to look, here’s a summary of what’s going on in Africa. Millions of people are being displaced but you will note the BBC don’t tell us much about any of it. In fact the only report I can remember is because a load of women got raped at a prison when the ‘rebels’ let the men out. And even then, they gave no details about the men who did the raping- it was another ‘victims only’ empathy fest.
It’s all the evidence I need of just what unpleasant, extreme hypocrites the BBC are. They are not interested in this because there are no white people to call ‘racist oppressors’. They don’t give a shit how many Africans are dying of hunger or living in apalling conditions because they can’t blame white people for it. Just as they don’t care how many of them murder each other in Londonistan.
Meanwhile people are afraid to go out on the streets because of a surge in moped muggings.
https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/regents-park-bike-muggings-crime-met-police-royal-parks-b1213978.html
The BBC don’t care about that either. The video shows why – though you already know the reason.
Every time I check, I find multiple articles I never saw on the front page of the BBC because it doesn’t match their agenda.
Thank goodness two of those soldiers have their muzzles on – they could catch a cold.
‘They don’t give a shit how many Africans are dying of hunger or living in appalling conditions because they can’t blame white people for it’
It’s also because they want to conceal what a boiling marsh of corruption, poverty and violence Africa is.
People might start to think that colonialism wasn’t so bad after all.
““Russian and Ukrainian negotiators appeared to have tentatively agreed on the outlines of a negotiated interim settlement,” wrote Fiona Hill and Angela Stent. “Russia would withdraw to its position on February 23, when it controlled part of the Donbas region and all of Crimea, and in exchange, Ukraine would promise not to seek NATO membership and instead receive security guarantees from a number of countries.”
The news highlights the impact of former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s efforts to stop negotiations, as journalist Branko Marcetic noted on Twitter. The decision to scuttle the deal coincided with Johnson’s April visit to Kyiv, during which he reportedly urged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to break off talks with Russia for two key reasons: Putin cannot be negotiated with, and the West isn’t ready for the war to end.”

“Since the office’s establishment on 5 December 1991, there have been six presidents of Ukraine. Leonid Kravchuk was the inaugural president, serving three years from 1991 until his resignation in 1994. Leonid Kuchma was the only president to have served two consecutive terms in office. Viktor Yushchenko, Petro Poroshenko, and Viktor Yanukovych served one term, with the latter being replaced by acting president Oleksandr Turchynov, who then also served as Chairman of the Ukrainian Parliament, on 21 February 2014.[4] Oleksandr Turchynov was the only acting president in Ukraine’s modern history. The powers of an acting president are severely limited. On 18 June 2015, Yanukovych was officially deprived of the title of president of Ukraine.[5] The Government of Ukraine utilizes a semi-presidential system in which the roles of the head of state and head of government are separate, thus the president of Ukraine is not the nation’s head of government.[6] The prime minister serves as the head of government,[7] a role currently filled by Denys Shmyhal who took office in March 2020.
The current president is Volodymyr Zelenskyy, who took the oath of office on 20 May 2019. Due to martial law, elections in the country have been suspended.[8]

Democracy – will of the people.
Even bigger than that, in my humble view. The obsequious Trump has joined the club now alongside Putin and Beijing etc. He has shown his credentials/qualifications. When fully ensconced Trump with that gang of dictators, they will set about carving up the smaller countries. Ukraine with be the start, given to Putin. Next will be Taiwan. So, all those countries who have military protection agreements with the US better watch out:
Philippines, Indonesia, Singapore and, dare I speculate a little further? – South Korea.
There will be only one collective bloc standing in the dictators’ way: Europe. The only bloc not yet totally taken over by Marxism/Communism.
Orban, the communist plant in the EU has made a start on the end of the EU in favour of Putin. Hear his views on the Trump/Vance assassination of Zelensky. Not only that:

A desperate extreme-Lefty is a very dangerous creature. They will sacrice anything at all to fulfill their ideological goal. I worry what TTK and his abysmal government might try to force through – despite public opinion – if they know they will not get back in.

It’s the soft power, the civil servce that Trump is decaring war on
The irony is that our civil service and the BBC are outdated institutions with their ‘power’ and ways of working rooted in the colonialist days of the past. The same as our armed forces. They exist as an ‘elite ruling class’ governing the plebs underneath.
The thing thing the extreme-Left BBC profess to despise so much is the entire basis of their existence. Their hypocrisy is without limits. They could switch 180 degrees in a heartbeat if it suited them.
Week in Westminster
It’s so tired – it digs up that Dane Kathleen Ashton of Brussels to Yap about stuff she has no clue – and then there’s an ex sunak whip who has written his book … yawn …
.. and according to him the Conservative Party is ‘turning around ‘ and starting to ‘recover ‘ – im sure that was the word he used – no challenge – no one laughed .
That programme is so much of the swamp as to remind ordinary victim ( taxpayers ) how the swamp is a completely undemocratic place ….
The resignation of a minister barely got a mention – nor – hopefully a labour civil war …
“The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) uncovers overpricing and unfair practices in a 114 million euros EU-funded project for power generators to Ukraine, urging Poland’s Government Agency for Strategic Reserves (RARS) to return millions.”

Ukrainian authorities have arrested the chief psychiatrist of the Armed Forces on allegations of illegal enrichment, accusing him of amassing over $1 million in assets since the start of the war with Russia. The doctor was a member of a commission responsible for determining whether men were fit for military service.
The suspect’s name has not been disclosed, but previously, Oleh Druz had been identified as the Armed Forces’ chief psychiatrist.
During a search of his home, officials discovered $152,000 and €34,000 in cash.

Fed, I was down in the town here in Northern France whilst Mrs N was at the Pharmacy, alongside said pharmacy is the town library. Loudly trumpeting to the world via big poster, Fougerolles-du-Plessis resistance, 1944-1945. I sat there in the car thinking, yes, you only started resisting after the people you hate so much landed north of here and started the push back after having been fighting for 4 years. As a friend of mine says ” cheese eating surrender monkeys”
Northern- I think someone said the French would never forgive us for helping rescue them ..
No good deed ever goes unpunished.
A chap Called David Collier on X points out that the Hamas kid used by the BBC was the same one C4 news used 18? Months earlier to deliver the Hamas propaganda as a ‘victim ‘ when in fact it was the Islamic terrorists exploiting far left western media … it’s a long evidenced thread ..

I’m not convinced Ukraine is near to collapse though; I’m guessing they’re stocked up for a good while,
Maybe if USA stops providing satalite data, Srarlink etc might happen
Never mind, NASA can be fun, I spent a year at the European space agency and the poor girl next to me spent all day testing sellotape it’s the only adhesive they allow.
That was her job, every day, stick a bit of sellotape to a wall, them set a timer and see how long it takes to fall off.
That’s what she did, every day.
She was a little depressed, I have no idea why,
Did she get promoted to test out pencils to use in space ? Not the special bik ©️pen ….?
They wre asking for any suggestions for new adhesives.
I suggested cornflakes and ceriel bowls after 10 minutes.
That’st where it all went wrong
Why didn’t they just stick to glue?
Here’s a headline in the Indy worthy of the BBC by it’s bias and irrelevance:
“Just 1 voter backed AfD in Germany’s smallest town”
Yes, they actually combed through Germany to find a tiny village that didn’t support the AfD.
There’s desperation for you!
But, unlike the BBC, at least we’re not forced to pay for it.

Amazingly zelenskis ‘ plane made it safely across the Atlantic without having a mystery engine failure over the deepest part of the ocean .
He’s now off to 10 Mohammed Street to cry on the shoulder of TTK – who had a golden opportunity to get into the DJT good book ….
Pretty quiet now about the real estate property portfolio that Vladmir and chums have built up overseas …
Vlad is still relying on his client press.
You do not send a media created, media boosted and media addicted money grasping lightweight to ask a democratically elected leader with a popular mandate to look after his country, to forget the other stuff and gimme.
Then, the next day, Ukraine sends their boy.
Can you blame her?

I needed a chuckle
Tomo – with respect 😵💫 next time you put up a ‘horror ‘ picture could you put up a warning ….. ? I wonder if her ‘staff ‘ tell her…?
I remember her being interviewed by Brillo when she was ‘shadow chancellor ‘( really ?) and got cut to pieces – awful to watch … unless you are of the Deep Right … like me …
Gives some context to Labour’s pool of ministerial talent?
I see Fick Ange got caught necking some of TTK’s prize Scotch at Downing Street.
Maybe she claims from Lord Ali and keeps the dosh?
Move over Medusa.
Perhaps it would have went better if Zelenskyy had invited Trump for a state visit to Ukraine (live on tv as is usual now)
Are they putting forward themselves to fight the war in Russia?
………….
Someday soon, you might wake up to the call to prayer from a muezzin. Europeans already are. And liberals will still tell you that “diversity is our strength”–while Talibanic enforcers cruise Greenwich Village burning books and barber shops, the Supreme Court decides sharia law doesn’t violate the “separation of church and state,” and the Hollywood Left decides to give up on gay rights in favor of the much safer charms of polygamy.
If you think this can’t happen, you haven’t been paying attention, as the hilarious, provocative, and brilliant Mark Steyn–the most popular conservative columnist in the English-speaking world–shows to devastating effect. The future, as Steyn shows, belongs to the fecund and the confident. And the Islamists are both, while the West is looking ever more like the ruins of a civilization.
But America can survive, prosper, and defend its freedom only if it continues to believe in itself, in the sturdier virtues of self-reliance (not government), in the centrality of family, and in the conviction that our country really is the world’s last best hope. Mark Steyn’s America Alone is laugh-out-loud funny–but it will also change the way you look at the world.

BBC is threatening to vist us on The 12th March “To the legal occupier”
“As there’s no record of a TV Licence at your address, you should expect a visit from an Enforcement Officer.”

“George Soros is one of the most successful and influential investors in history. He is also known for his philanthropic and political activities, as well as his controversial views on various issues. But perhaps his most famous achievement was his role in the 1992 currency crisis that forced the British government to withdraw from the European exchange rate mechanism (ERM) and devalue its currency, the pound sterling.
This event, which occurred on Sept. 16, 1992, is known as Black Wednesday, and it earned Soros the nickname of “the man who broke the Bank of England.””
