Good job Ww -Douglas Murray – on X reports that he won a major libel case against The Guardian today . Doesn’t say how much he got but let’s hope it bleeds them to death
It’s not exactly “major”
Kenan Malik’s online article was correct
but the problem is when he first prepared it he used some dodgy social media post that smeared Murray
And opened the article with that info
but later he realised the info was false
However the printed version had already gone to print
At the time the online article got a correction note about the print
Malick tweeted explaining this but was not apologetic
And now Murray has won in court Malick is still not apologetic
It is now becoming obvious to me that there can never be a Trump like government in Britain Even if the population voted for one. Just like the elites attempt to overturn Brexit. However the people voted it just would not be implemented Roumania is a perfect example. In Britain it is worse. The Islamists and their woke enablers have infiltrated every political party, the civil service and every quango. It seems that the last hope of Reform UK has gone the same way.
Another ridiculously lop-sided BBC article from the ultra-Left , anti-Semite Sarah Rainsford.
The summary is:
Right-wing candidate wins vote.
Vote gets overturned and re-run ordered.
Right wing candidate disqualified from running.
Exactly what they tried to do to Trump.
They key is buried deep in the article:
‘To European leaders and many in Romania it looked like Russia was trying to weaken Europe and undermine its liberal values.’
‘That is still the opinion of many Romanians who fear a man who admires Vladimir Putin and dislikes Nato.’
Not the majority though is it BBC ?. Typical BBC lies which infer something as being hte general truth.
They get ‘far-right’ in there 8 times. Every single right-wing party is ‘far-right’ now at the BBC and to the fascists Left.
The EU are the new Nazi fascists. And once again they have their sights on world domination. It sounds ridiculous – but it’s true. And the BBC are fully complicit. They should be outraged by this even but they are not. They have utterly failed their journalistic ethics. Again.
JohnC, I think you are right about the EU wanting global domination. They wanted to expand into the Middle East. Do I recall correctly that the EU had its eyes on Turkey becoming members?
I once wondered whether the ten horned ‘beast’ of the books of Daniel & Revelation in the Bible was the EU but of course the EU then exploded my Biblical ‘musings’ by expanding its membership to 27 and then 28 nations with the UK included.
But be very certain that what God foretells in the Bible will happen – eventually.
I’m sure we’re all excited for the sounding of the seven trumpets which will bring destruction upon the earth, including hail and fire mixed with blood, a blazing mountain thrown into the sea, and a star named Wormwood poisoning the waters.
First thread I see on Quora:
‘British people outraged that JD Vance accused the British government of suppressing free speech?’
First comment:
‘Well, he is free to say it, just as we are free to call him a lying, manipulative wanker. But the world would be a nicer place if we didn’t indulge in name-calling, and eyeliner boy shut the fuck up.’
Second comment:
‘Most brits dgaf what Vance thinks about us or what happens in our country, however, there are a bunch of knuckle dragging racists who will use any opportunity to pretend that “our culture” or “straight white men” are under attack or pretend that you “can’t say anything anymore without being locked up” his speech chimed well with them but, we dgaf what they think either because they’re imbeciles.’
Thats where you belong Kikuchiyo – though I am pretty certain you already have an account there.
I have never been totally sure that Reform was the answer.
However I watch as the MSM take Trump’s words out of context by very selectively decide the start and finish of a clip, attack Musk (and not what he finds), attack Melania, in spite of the Muller report clearing him still refer to Trump as linked to Russia, etc etc. But there has been a fine display from the MSM trying to bring Trump down or blacken his name after they recovered from the shock of him winning.
And similarly what I am not sure is whether the MSM saw an opportunity to bring down Reform, whether Reform did it to themselves, or whether there are people specifically involved in Reform with the sole purpose of bringing it down. Whatever went on I don’t think Nigel did brilliantly in how he has handled this episode.
What really bothers me about the MSM these days Deborah is how their reckless partisan left-wing bias affects the whole world. They completely misrepresent the truth for their own political ideology and they don’t care one bit what effect their lies (because deliberately misrepresenting the truth IS a lie, even if the detail is true) have on the whole of society.
The constant anti-Trump rhetoric has created an immense amount of hate among young activists. If you browse any of the big forums like Quora and Reddit, the hate is absolutely extreme. And anyone who does not buy into the group-think is attacked with such vitriole, I am certain they would be ‘removed from society’ if they had the power. This hate is fuelled by the constant criticism and negativity from the likes of the BBC.
Now the BBC have learned what they can do (deposing Boris and all the ministers who were actually conservatives was a left-wing coup orchestrated by the BBC in conjunction with the civil service. No other way to describe it), they have expanded it to everything right-wing.
If this was a spat within Labour, it would barely make the news. And I’m sure there are still more left-wing activists within Reform with bad intent. And whatever damning statements they make when they come from their cover will be front-page BBC news.
We should not underestimate just how nasty the Left are. I was reading this morning how they are trying to ruin a fish and chip business because it showed some support to reform.
The comment in the second one fully support ruining this man. These fascists don’t want democracy, they want a left-wing dictatorship where they can destroy those they hate. They are the real Nazis.
Marianna-pants-on-fire should create one of her troll accounts on Quora and imitate someone right wing and see how much hate she gets. That’s why her remit has been very deliberately limited to ‘misinformation’. They know the ‘hate’ which is destroying society is from the Left.
I agree with your comments except the labelling of Boris as a true Conservative. He may got us half out of the EU but he massively increased immigration , which was just about the worst thing that he could have done, and then he prevented a peace settlement in Ukraine in 2022 when the war was just a few weeks old.
I think that we should focus on whether politicians are Globalists or Nationalists. Boris was definitely a Globalist and I think he only used Brexit for personal advancement or perhaps as a Globalist plant to defuse the feelings of the population.
Farage is certainly a Nationalist but he seems to have reached the conclusion that the growth of Islam in our country is inevitable and therefore Reform must come to terms with it.
I find this conclusion very unpalatable and it is also based on the highly dangerous assumption that Muslims will tolerate a multi religious society. History tells us that whenever they have sufficient power Muslims always force conversion to Islam by the book or by the sword. I expect this to be the case in the UK in the second half of this century unless a very firm stand is made in the next decade.
Who has the courage to take the leadership role in this stand and how they can recruit enough support for it is the main issue. They will face far more opposition from the ruling elite than Le Pen or Wilders has done and of course the brainwashed sheep of the British public wont offer much support until it is too late.
Double, I tend to think of Boris as two different people : the Conservative ‘Boris-Cummins’ creature which brought us Brexit without giving in to a second referendum and is so utterly hated by the Left – and the post-Cummins, Nut-Nut monstrosity where Boris showed us what he really is when the hand up his arse isn’t in tune with the people.
The Left hated him so much for Brexit, only his complete political destruction would do – even though he transformed into a regular Lefty globalist for an easy life at home with the horse.
“If this was a spat within Labour, it would barely make the news.”
One of Reform’s 5 MPs calls the party a “protest party led by the Messiah”, he is referred to the police by his own party and stripped of the whip for allegedly making threats of physical violence against the party chairman, and you think its a non-story?
Ignore ‘The National’ – this is a 12-years olds’ socialist debating club. The arse licking SNP house rag, propped up by SNP MSP blanket subscriptions, despite readership in the single digit 1000’s.
The Mueller report found that Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.
The report contains no evidence that any Trump campaign official reported their contacts with Russia or WikiLeaks to U.S. law enforcement authorities, rather they welcomed it.
The report details multiple episodes in which there is evidence that the President obstructed justice.
It’s funny when you think someone is a genuine commentator and then you find out how wrong you were. For instance Isabel Oakshot. When you find out that she is Richard Tice girlfriend and she can act like this Then all that she says from now on will be questioned That’s if I would actually listen to anything she says in the future.

As is expcted from the far-left BBC, tha S and P chart on the report doesn’t show the dreadful times that those companies were seeing under the Democrats!
Half-way through 2020, the S and P showed that that even with the drop just recently, the US is still double what it was under Biden and his cronies.
I never believe a word the bbc choose to tell us and search the internet for more facts
I checked yesterday the S&P over the years and noticed that It was doing loads better. Can only imagine the likes of the bbc waiting for a moment when it deeps and they report it straight away and 5 minutes later it improves, but the bbc leave the report up for hours and the left lot believe it!
There are other facts, (not Beeboid fantasies) in the leader pages, and while tariffs are indeed causing some tumult, it is a general fact that the major economies aren’t concerned – especially Japan! Fortunes can be made on tumult…
Perhaps the far-left BBC should get up and start work earlier, then they might get something right!

UK doubles aid for Sudan and neighbouring countries facing the worst humanitarian crisis of the decade
English The UK has announced an aid package for Sudan and neighbouring countries.
The first 50 days of President Trump has been glorious. Much has been started but of course little has yet been completed .
The Globalists are regrouping , his opening salvos have caught them by surprise , they never expected such radical measures to be taken. I think that much of the ‘panic’ on the global money markets is a concerted effort by them to blunt Trump’s effectiveness and to weaken the US economy.
If they can do this then they might get the Dems back in control of the House after the mid terms in 2026 . This would seriously limit what Trump can achieve in his final two years and also damage Vance’s chances of succeeding him.
Trump needs to keep on hitting them hard and I think he must reveal all the illegal dirty tricks they used from 2016 onwards in order to discredit them in the eyes of the American public. He must be seen as the defender of American democracy against the anti democratic Democrats!
I think it might be more to do with tariffs, mass firings, and
market uncertainty due to Trump’s disruptive policies….or a conspiracy by the global markets to get the Democrats elected.
Maybe the global markets are aware that Democrat Presidents are always better for the economy than Republicans?
Canada anointing Carney to be PM and run in the next General Election is a shocking object lesson for Britain in how corrupt modern politics, MSM and the legal system is and how the left wing have taken over. Trudeau managed to prorogue Parliament to prevent being removed as Prime Minister and delay the General Election.
Prorogue Parliament, remember the last time when we heard about that process? It was when Boris Johnson attempted to prorogue Parliament and was prevented from doing so by the Supreme Court in a very controversial Judgement. Canada’s head of State is the Monarch of Great Britain, it was the King’s representative in Canada, the Governor General who gave permission for the prorogation and yet their Courts found it to be legal.
What we seem to be seeing is a complete undemocratic left wing and Establishment capture of the West.
The video which explains some of this, previously posted by Tomo is well worth a watch.
“..I think you (Mark Carney) have become politically involved (UK’s EU Referendum), in a way, you have quite clearly said you would not in a General Election…” – Jacob Rees-Mogg – {independent – may2016 @0:50} “I don’t think it’s worth a reply.” – Mark Carney’s response

Others, like Fletcher, felt such a move would give a licence to older men to prey on young girls. Into this permissive climate crept the PIE, a group that actively promoted sex between children and adults and that was allowed not only to affiliate to the NCCL (in return for paying a £15 subscription) but enjoyed considerable recognition and support for its right to speak out on such issues.

Trump ratchets up Canada trade war with 50% aluminium and steel tariffs – frets the Financial Times
Well, this sort of story is comfortably within the pink market-watching paper’s wheelhouse. A place this chap: Cargo ship’s captain arrested over North Sea crash – presumably was not.
However, leaving aside our own domestic economic woes – and they are severe: British firms more gloomy than Russians… Businesses are more pessimistic… than heavily sanctioned Russia… suggested the UK was headed towards stagflation with bosses planning to shed jobs faster than other major economies (Telegraph)
Nonetheless, it’s US trade policy that is – apparently – likewise the very top concern of our BBC’s online news headlines: EU retaliates after Trump tariffs on steel and aluminium take effect (BBC)
Next week’s headline: ‘Trump demands Britain take the extra ‘i’ out of aluminium?’ I jest of course.
Tariffs on aluminium – or is that aluminum? How will this impact the price of tinfoil for cooking the British Christmas dinner turkey? Let alone the entry cost of becoming a conspiracy theorist? I refer of course to the tinfoil hat. Remember folks, conspiracies do exist – otherwise Julius Caesar would still be alive in Rome rather than having ended up as a pin cushion for the senators in the forum. And remember this folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true.

I suppose the effect will be shown by the number of small companies ceasing to exist and unemployment going up .

The citizen wrote to pipa and in response she put in a harassment allegation against him – leading to 2 uniform plod serving a warning notice on him at his front door – which he recorded and put up on YouTube .
I was studying the subtext – I reckon they were desperate to get him to ‘react ‘ and arrest him on thr usual TTK public order game – but he dun well… go see it – thoughts with poor pipa ( one p) …. Frightening times …
..I was then led to the ‘black belt barrister ‘ talking about those letters the BBC good people who have dumped / don’t need – a TV licence – I’d be grateful with both YOUtubes are put up here ….

Have we done the Fake Far Right Mob spotted at Liverpool mosque
with big signs saying filming in progress ?
British stand put out a video this morning
On Twitter I spot a genuine TV sound guy saying this
“I was the Sound Recordist for that gig, it’s okay, it’s a peaceful event, NOT FAR RIGHT IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM, the mosque wouldn’t allow it, wakey wakey,
We are reacting a compassionate scene where the riot was quelled with food and compassion, great story to tell! Safety” https://x.com/JamesHarvey2503/status/1899167911136415954
The initial video tweet says
Weird things going on outside the (Islamic) Abdullah Quilliam Society in Liverpool, England.
A sign reads “filming in progress,” while a gang of men wearing union jacks and holding baseball bats, are standing calmly outside the gate – with big cameras being set-up. People are also holding fake looking bricks.
Are they filming some PROPAGANDA piece on the imaginary “far right.”?
British Stand points out that genuine mosque protesters are not usually masked or carrying weapons
and that it is spin to omit that large gangs of stick and knife wielding Muslims roamed some streets after Southport eg in Bham .. probably some masked

Christopher Hope on GB News to a woman Labour MP, ‘Starmer has had a good couple of weeks on the world stage, don’t you think?’ Talk about feeding her the line.

He said he wasn’t afraid to put ‘boots on ground’ in Ukraine. When he realised that the other European leaders weren’t offering the same, he hastily added (well a day or two later) that he would promise British troops if other leaders offered theirs. Overall not a brilliant week for Starmer. It is only the Left wing press saying he had a good couple of weeks and the general population’s short memories.
This was after Lloyd Russel Moyles talking about the genocide on the West Bank and Gaza and Christopher Hope not correcting him.

I’ll never understand how Beeboids can stoop so low, just to try and score a few measly points for their failing readership! Perhaps by now, I should be accepting it…
There’s something about the way some BBC peeps absolutely fawn over gangstas – I saw a Brazilian crew of workers go all indignant over a BBC R4 piece on some PoS favella rap artist that was on a workshop radio – they couldn’t believe their ears and related a string of killings, assaults and areas turned very dangerous indeed that that the artistste being lauded on, iirc – Woman’s Hour had perpetrated – edgy!

We’ve heard a lot lately about tariffs – now we’re suddenly told about ‘counter-tariffs’ and indeed ‘reciprical tariffs’
Meanwhile, Wanker Of The Week award goes to the reigning British all-comers (in door & out door) champion: The EU instantly unveiled £22billion counter-tariffs. Canada – America’s biggest trading partner – also announced a 25% reciprical tariff on $16billion of goods exported there from the US.

It followed an incident with her driver’s licence that was found to be invalid, sources claimed. (Daily Express) – rather unladylike language, I think you’ll agree.

Good job Ww -Douglas Murray – on X reports that he won a major libel case against The Guardian today . Doesn’t say how much he got but let’s hope it bleeds them to death
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world/new-york-post-columnist-douglas-murray-wins-libel-suit-against-the-observer/ar-AA1AIiGF
Plenty more where Gates funds from
It’s not exactly “major”
Kenan Malik’s online article was correct
but the problem is when he first prepared it he used some dodgy social media post that smeared Murray
And opened the article with that info
but later he realised the info was false
However the printed version had already gone to print
At the time the online article got a correction note about the print
Malick tweeted explaining this but was not apologetic
And now Murray has won in court Malick is still not apologetic
It is now becoming obvious to me that there can never be a Trump like government in Britain Even if the population voted for one. Just like the elites attempt to overturn Brexit. However the people voted it just would not be implemented Roumania is a perfect example. In Britain it is worse. The Islamists and their woke enablers have infiltrated every political party, the civil service and every quango. It seems that the last hope of Reform UK has gone the same way.
Not just the UK : they now have the power to rig every election of EU member states.
Final ruling bars far-right Georgescu from Romanian vote
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj679nk6endo
Another ridiculously lop-sided BBC article from the ultra-Left , anti-Semite Sarah Rainsford.
The summary is:
Right-wing candidate wins vote.
Vote gets overturned and re-run ordered.
Right wing candidate disqualified from running.
Exactly what they tried to do to Trump.
They key is buried deep in the article:
‘To European leaders and many in Romania it looked like Russia was trying to weaken Europe and undermine its liberal values.’
‘That is still the opinion of many Romanians who fear a man who admires Vladimir Putin and dislikes Nato.’
Not the majority though is it BBC ?. Typical BBC lies which infer something as being hte general truth.
They get ‘far-right’ in there 8 times. Every single right-wing party is ‘far-right’ now at the BBC and to the fascists Left.
The EU are the new Nazi fascists. And once again they have their sights on world domination. It sounds ridiculous – but it’s true. And the BBC are fully complicit. They should be outraged by this even but they are not. They have utterly failed their journalistic ethics. Again.
JohnC, I think you are right about the EU wanting global domination. They wanted to expand into the Middle East. Do I recall correctly that the EU had its eyes on Turkey becoming members?
I once wondered whether the ten horned ‘beast’ of the books of Daniel & Revelation in the Bible was the EU but of course the EU then exploded my Biblical ‘musings’ by expanding its membership to 27 and then 28 nations with the UK included.
But be very certain that what God foretells in the Bible will happen – eventually.
I’m sure we’re all excited for the sounding of the seven trumpets which will bring destruction upon the earth, including hail and fire mixed with blood, a blazing mountain thrown into the sea, and a star named Wormwood poisoning the waters.

Hello, I aint seen you trolling on this site for a long time ?
Where have you been?
As usual you add nothing to the debate except the usual immature 12-year old spiteful rubbish.
You belong on Quora with the other idiots who think they are clever.
Huh?! Aren’t you excited about that? I’m just quoting what God has promised.
First thread I see on Quora:
‘British people outraged that JD Vance accused the British government of suppressing free speech?’
First comment:
‘Well, he is free to say it, just as we are free to call him a lying, manipulative wanker. But the world would be a nicer place if we didn’t indulge in name-calling, and eyeliner boy shut the fuck up.’
Second comment:
‘Most brits dgaf what Vance thinks about us or what happens in our country, however, there are a bunch of knuckle dragging racists who will use any opportunity to pretend that “our culture” or “straight white men” are under attack or pretend that you “can’t say anything anymore without being locked up” his speech chimed well with them but, we dgaf what they think either because they’re imbeciles.’
Thats where you belong Kikuchiyo – though I am pretty certain you already have an account there.

Haven’t you learned anything during your absence?
I have never been totally sure that Reform was the answer.
However I watch as the MSM take Trump’s words out of context by very selectively decide the start and finish of a clip, attack Musk (and not what he finds), attack Melania, in spite of the Muller report clearing him still refer to Trump as linked to Russia, etc etc. But there has been a fine display from the MSM trying to bring Trump down or blacken his name after they recovered from the shock of him winning.
And similarly what I am not sure is whether the MSM saw an opportunity to bring down Reform, whether Reform did it to themselves, or whether there are people specifically involved in Reform with the sole purpose of bringing it down. Whatever went on I don’t think Nigel did brilliantly in how he has handled this episode.
What really bothers me about the MSM these days Deborah is how their reckless partisan left-wing bias affects the whole world. They completely misrepresent the truth for their own political ideology and they don’t care one bit what effect their lies (because deliberately misrepresenting the truth IS a lie, even if the detail is true) have on the whole of society.
The constant anti-Trump rhetoric has created an immense amount of hate among young activists. If you browse any of the big forums like Quora and Reddit, the hate is absolutely extreme. And anyone who does not buy into the group-think is attacked with such vitriole, I am certain they would be ‘removed from society’ if they had the power. This hate is fuelled by the constant criticism and negativity from the likes of the BBC.
Now the BBC have learned what they can do (deposing Boris and all the ministers who were actually conservatives was a left-wing coup orchestrated by the BBC in conjunction with the civil service. No other way to describe it), they have expanded it to everything right-wing.
If this was a spat within Labour, it would barely make the news. And I’m sure there are still more left-wing activists within Reform with bad intent. And whatever damning statements they make when they come from their cover will be front-page BBC news.
We should not underestimate just how nasty the Left are. I was reading this morning how they are trying to ruin a fish and chip business because it showed some support to reform.

The comment in the second one fully support ruining this man. These fascists don’t want democracy, they want a left-wing dictatorship where they can destroy those they hate. They are the real Nazis.
Marianna-pants-on-fire should create one of her troll accounts on Quora and imitate someone right wing and see how much hate she gets. That’s why her remit has been very deliberately limited to ‘misinformation’. They know the ‘hate’ which is destroying society is from the Left.
I agree with your comments except the labelling of Boris as a true Conservative. He may got us half out of the EU but he massively increased immigration , which was just about the worst thing that he could have done, and then he prevented a peace settlement in Ukraine in 2022 when the war was just a few weeks old.
I think that we should focus on whether politicians are Globalists or Nationalists. Boris was definitely a Globalist and I think he only used Brexit for personal advancement or perhaps as a Globalist plant to defuse the feelings of the population.
Farage is certainly a Nationalist but he seems to have reached the conclusion that the growth of Islam in our country is inevitable and therefore Reform must come to terms with it.
I find this conclusion very unpalatable and it is also based on the highly dangerous assumption that Muslims will tolerate a multi religious society. History tells us that whenever they have sufficient power Muslims always force conversion to Islam by the book or by the sword. I expect this to be the case in the UK in the second half of this century unless a very firm stand is made in the next decade.
Who has the courage to take the leadership role in this stand and how they can recruit enough support for it is the main issue. They will face far more opposition from the ruling elite than Le Pen or Wilders has done and of course the brainwashed sheep of the British public wont offer much support until it is too late.
Double, I tend to think of Boris as two different people : the Conservative ‘Boris-Cummins’ creature which brought us Brexit without giving in to a second referendum and is so utterly hated by the Left – and the post-Cummins, Nut-Nut monstrosity where Boris showed us what he really is when the hand up his arse isn’t in tune with the people.
The Left hated him so much for Brexit, only his complete political destruction would do – even though he transformed into a regular Lefty globalist for an easy life at home with the horse.
“If this was a spat within Labour, it would barely make the news.”
One of Reform’s 5 MPs calls the party a “protest party led by the Messiah”, he is referred to the police by his own party and stripped of the whip for allegedly making threats of physical violence against the party chairman, and you think its a non-story?
Do you think your view might be a tad partisan?
Ignore ‘The National’ – this is a 12-years olds’ socialist debating club. The arse licking SNP house rag, propped up by SNP MSP blanket subscriptions, despite readership in the single digit 1000’s.
The Mueller report found that Trump associates repeatedly lied to investigators about their contacts with Russians, and President Trump refused to answer questions about his efforts to impede federal proceedings and influence the testimony of witnesses.
The report contains no evidence that any Trump campaign official reported their contacts with Russia or WikiLeaks to U.S. law enforcement authorities, rather they welcomed it.
The report details multiple episodes in which there is evidence that the President obstructed justice.
The Mueller report did not ‘clear’ him.
I wonder if this is the reason Farage and his moslom paymaster want to get rid of Lowe. If it is then Farage is just yet another wannabe elite

Hello Scroblene
I never believe a word the bbc choose to tell us and search the internet for more facts
I checked yesterday the S&P over the years and noticed that It was doing loads better. Can only imagine the likes of the bbc waiting for a moment when it deeps and they report it straight away and 5 minutes later it improves, but the bbc leave the report up for hours and the left lot believe it!
Good points Andy!
There are other facts, (not Beeboid fantasies) in the leader pages, and while tariffs are indeed causing some tumult, it is a general fact that the major economies aren’t concerned – especially Japan! Fortunes can be made on tumult…
Perhaps the far-left BBC should get up and start work earlier, then they might get something right!

The first 50 days of President Trump has been glorious. Much has been started but of course little has yet been completed .
The Globalists are regrouping , his opening salvos have caught them by surprise , they never expected such radical measures to be taken. I think that much of the ‘panic’ on the global money markets is a concerted effort by them to blunt Trump’s effectiveness and to weaken the US economy.
If they can do this then they might get the Dems back in control of the House after the mid terms in 2026 . This would seriously limit what Trump can achieve in his final two years and also damage Vance’s chances of succeeding him.
Trump needs to keep on hitting them hard and I think he must reveal all the illegal dirty tricks they used from 2016 onwards in order to discredit them in the eyes of the American public. He must be seen as the defender of American democracy against the anti democratic Democrats!
I think it might be more to do with tariffs, mass firings, and
market uncertainty due to Trump’s disruptive policies….or a conspiracy by the global markets to get the Democrats elected.
Maybe the global markets are aware that Democrat Presidents are always better for the economy than Republicans?
Canada anointing Carney to be PM and run in the next General Election is a shocking object lesson for Britain in how corrupt modern politics, MSM and the legal system is and how the left wing have taken over. Trudeau managed to prorogue Parliament to prevent being removed as Prime Minister and delay the General Election.
Prorogue Parliament, remember the last time when we heard about that process? It was when Boris Johnson attempted to prorogue Parliament and was prevented from doing so by the Supreme Court in a very controversial Judgement. Canada’s head of State is the Monarch of Great Britain, it was the King’s representative in Canada, the Governor General who gave permission for the prorogation and yet their Courts found it to be legal.
What we seem to be seeing is a complete undemocratic left wing and Establishment capture of the West.
The video which explains some of this, previously posted by Tomo is well worth a watch.

Others, like Fletcher, felt such a move would give a licence to older men to prey on young girls. Into this permissive climate crept the PIE, a group that actively promoted sex between children and adults and that was allowed not only to affiliate to the NCCL (in return for paying a £15 subscription) but enjoyed considerable recognition and support for its right to speak out on such issues.

Trump ratchets up Canada trade war with 50% aluminium and steel tariffs – frets the Financial Times
Well, this sort of story is comfortably within the pink market-watching paper’s wheelhouse. A place this chap: Cargo ship’s captain arrested over North Sea crash – presumably was not.
However, leaving aside our own domestic economic woes – and they are severe: British firms more gloomy than Russians… Businesses are more pessimistic… than heavily sanctioned Russia… suggested the UK was headed towards stagflation with bosses planning to shed jobs faster than other major economies (Telegraph)
Nonetheless, it’s US trade policy that is – apparently – likewise the very top concern of our BBC’s online news headlines: EU retaliates after Trump tariffs on steel and aluminium take effect (BBC)
Next week’s headline: ‘Trump demands Britain take the extra ‘i’ out of aluminium?’ I jest of course.
Tariffs on aluminium – or is that aluminum? How will this impact the price of tinfoil for cooking the British Christmas dinner turkey? Let alone the entry cost of becoming a conspiracy theorist? I refer of course to the tinfoil hat. Remember folks, conspiracies do exist – otherwise Julius Caesar would still be alive in Rome rather than having ended up as a pin cushion for the senators in the forum. And remember this folks, it’s not a conspiracy theory if it’s true.

UK to lead Europe’s new mega-army in Ukraine with France, Turkey and Canada… Parliament will have a vote on deploying British troops to Ukraine, Keir Starmer says (Daily Express, March 2025)

Quangos to be axed… Sir Keir Starmer told ministers to “take responsibility” and stop “outsourcing” decisions to regulators as he prepares to scrap quangos and cut red tape – trumpets the Times, wistfully.
However: Classic PR guff is a mere sideshow diverting from… blunders – scoffs Kevin Garside in the left-leaning i news – but ths is of course the sports correspondent and it is a diss not on Keir Starmer but instead on Manchester United’s boss Jim Ratcliffe – he of the Man United creeping islamisation – rather than Sir Keir and King Charles and whatever they’re up to?
Manchester United has opened a prayer room at Old Trafford, to allow Muslim fans and others to enjoy matchdays along with their religious obligations. (Let spread a welcome carpet – prayer mat indeed – for the debut hereabouts for The New Arab, London-based pan-Arab news outlet owned by Qatari company Fadaat Media… “relatively independent” in the context of the Arab world… “Sometimes the newspaper might be sensitive about what not to say, because you are not there to provoke the people that finance you.” – thank you Wiki – there’s a lesson for us all)
As for religious obligations at the football… as a long suffering Spurs fan one professes agnosticism at best and am sorely tempted to go atheist.
And finally, for those among us who somewhat regret the passing of the saucy Carry On-style medical comedy, brimming with innuendo, sexually inept yet horny junior doctors, nurses in smartly starched uniforms and battle axe starched matrons… we may be pleased to hear our health secretary Wes Streeting’s office is doing its best to bring back some of that – relatively – innocent fun (allegedly).

The citizen wrote to pipa and in response she put in a harassment allegation against him – leading to 2 uniform plod serving a warning notice on him at his front door – which he recorded and put up on YouTube .
I was studying the subtext – I reckon they were desperate to get him to ‘react ‘ and arrest him on thr usual TTK public order game – but he dun well… go see it – thoughts with poor pipa ( one p) …. Frightening times …
..I was then led to the ‘black belt barrister ‘ talking about those letters the BBC good people who have dumped / don’t need – a TV licence – I’d be grateful with both YOUtubes are put up here ….

Have we done the Fake Far Right Mob spotted at Liverpool mosque
with big signs saying filming in progress ?
British stand put out a video this morning
On Twitter I spot a genuine TV sound guy saying this
“I was the Sound Recordist for that gig, it’s okay, it’s a peaceful event, NOT FAR RIGHT IN ANYWAY SHAPE OR FORM, the mosque wouldn’t allow it, wakey wakey,
We are reacting a compassionate scene where the riot was quelled with food and compassion, great story to tell! Safety”
https://x.com/JamesHarvey2503/status/1899167911136415954
The initial video tweet says
Weird things going on outside the (Islamic) Abdullah Quilliam Society in Liverpool, England.
A sign reads “filming in progress,” while a gang of men wearing union jacks and holding baseball bats, are standing calmly outside the gate – with big cameras being set-up. People are also holding fake looking bricks.
Are they filming some PROPAGANDA piece on the imaginary “far right.”?
British Stand points out that genuine mosque protesters are not usually masked or carrying weapons
and that it is spin to omit that large gangs of stick and knife wielding Muslims roamed some streets after Southport eg in Bham .. probably some masked

The Smith-Mundt Modernization Act: From Propaganda to Censorship to Tyranny
by Laurie Calhoun | May 18, 2022

Spectacle and theater have come to dominate the political arena today, even more so than ever before. Politicians are now celebrity oligarchs, who use tax revenues to promote their pet projects, and to enhance their personal investment portfolios, while pretending in scrupulously orchestrated performances to care about the populace from whom all of the money they squander is siphoned.
The provision by the federal government of Peloton bicycle memberships to the house of representatives and their staff, all on the taxpayers’ dime, will begin on May 18, 2022. Meanwhile, more than 550K Americans are currently homeless.
It is also true, however, that in 2013 President Barack Obama signed into law the Smith-Mundt Modernization Act (H.R. 5736), making it legal for government-produced media—such as was broadcast overseas by Voice of America, Radio Free Europe, and other outlets throughout the Cold War—to be directed toward U.S. citizens themselves.
It’s bad enough that the dire Comic Relief is heading our way again. What makes it infinitely worse is that our Alexa device is choosing to promote it by showing a hideous gurning Jo Brand, BBC heroine and battery acid devotee, every five seconds.She is sporting a red nose, I don’t think it’s her own but I am not inclined to look any closer. I’m now reluctant to go into the kitchen in case she’s there again.

Hull : fairly prompt action by police and establishment against 2 pervy fairground workers
Two seedy Hull Fair workers have been locked up
– after they targeted and sexually abused two vulnerable and “impressionable” teenage girls who turned up as the fair set up looking for jobs
After days of grooming at 4am on November 4 last year, police went to a flat in Hull. They were investigating after a report that two girls, aged 15 and 14, were missing.
Both men were dealing drugs and the ringleader, who worked on waltzers at the fair, raped one of the girls as well as inciting her to engage in other sexual activity.
His young accomplice, who also worked at the fair, joined in the depraved sexual abuse at a flat in Hull.

Christopher Hope on GB News to a woman Labour MP, ‘Starmer has had a good couple of weeks on the world stage, don’t you think?’ Talk about feeding her the line.
What I saw was a puffed up little Napoleon, chest out, coming out with ridiculous suggestions, a coalition of the willing? What does that mean? He said he wasn’t afraid to put ‘boots on ground’ in Ukraine. When he realised that the other European leaders weren’t offering the same, he hastily added (well a day or two later) that he would promise British troops if other leaders offered theirs. Overall not a brilliant week for Starmer. It is only the Left wing press saying he had a good couple of weeks and the general population’s short memories.
This was after Lloyd Russel Moyles talking about the genocide on the West Bank and Gaza and Christopher Hope not correcting him.
GB News lefty Christopher Hope looks like an old Harry Potter.
I find this report utterly distasteful, and a disgraceful attempt to accuse President Trump for ‘causing the cartels some difficulties’ in supplying fentanyl and other filthy stuff to Americans.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cy5ng663d1wo
That foul drug was around ages before Donald Trump became President. Biden did very little to calm the trade, but the bloke at the BBC with a name straight out of Bertie Wooster tittle-tattle, tries to make out that it is The Donald’s fault, and manages to denigrate the tariff word to the hilt!
I sincerely hope that the US Homeland Security bang on Bertie’s mate’s door to demand all the files, information etc., and when he cowers in the corner, administer a few slaps for good measure!
I’ll never understand how Beeboids can stoop so low, just to try and score a few measly points for their failing readership! Perhaps by now, I should be accepting it…

We’ve heard a lot lately about tariffs – now we’re suddenly told about ‘counter-tariffs’ and indeed ‘reciprical tariffs’
Meanwhile, Wanker Of The Week award goes to the reigning British all-comers (in door & out door) champion: The EU instantly unveiled £22billion counter-tariffs. Canada – America’s biggest trading partner – also announced a 25% reciprical tariff on $16billion of goods exported there from the US. In the Commons, Lib Dem leader, Sir Ed Davey urged the PM to follow suit and be ‘more robust with Pres Trump’ (giveaway freebie Metro)

Sir Ed Davey’s party under pressure after ‘astonishing’ series of outbursts… Rachel Gilmour left onlookers shocked after calling junior staff obscene words in an outburst witnessed by others… a source said she called a security guard at the front gate a “c***” and an “obnoxious t***” before reportedly speculating “I bet he votes f****** Tory”. It followed an incident with her driver’s licence that was found to be invalid, sources claimed. (Daily Express) – rather unladylike language, I think you’ll agree.
