      “When the migrants pass through the Strait of Gibraltar, the French president orders troops to the south and addresses the nation with his plan to repel them. However, in the middle of the address, he breaks down, demanding the troops simply follow their consciences instead. Most of the troops immediately desert their posts and join the civilians as they flee north, and the south is quickly overrun by the migrants. ”

      Last year I was staying in Ireland near where a hotel for migrants had been burned down. The proprietor of the place I was staying blamed it on racists. But he went on to say that the intention had been to have I think 6 migrants per room with say 20 rooms. It worked out there would have been 120 young men tightly packed in their rooms, with no jobs or purpose. Whatever their colour, race or ethnicity, 120 young bored men would have meant trouble.

      During WWii, Jewish men of all ages were interned on the Isle of Man. Many of the older men had been university lecturers and they set up facilities for study for the young ones. It gave the old men purpose and the young ones an education. Whilst I don’t think many of the newly arrived are professors, perhaps using volunteers to teach English, British culture etc might be a way forward.

      Just a small step from there for the nasty Left to start intimidating the workforce to make them leave. Then they get violent against some examples to convince the others.

      Hey presto : they are terrorists.

      Lets hope Trump then instructs the police to shoot to kill and rids us of some of this vermin.

    The BBC, like everyone else it seems, is enraptured by the new Netflix show Adolescence, in which a schoolboy is arrested for a fatal stabbing. As part of pushing The Agenda, it’s naturally a 13yr old white kid in the frame. See if you can guess who the good guys are from the trailer.

    No doubt this will do the required job of “starting conversations” about shutting down the internet or lockdowns for white boys or whatever our clueless media and politicians have in store.

        The party’s original purpose was to patrol African American neighborhoods to protect residents from acts of police brutality. The Panthers eventually developed into a Marxist revolutionary group that called for the arming of all African Americans, the exemption of African Americans from the draft and from all sanctions of so-called white America, the release of all African Americans from jail, and the payment of compensation to African Americans for centuries of exploitation by white Americans

    This below is why Trump did not invite Farage to his inauguration.

    Farage ‘All Members of Parliament will be allowed to save their career by defecting to Reform UK’.

    Reform UK is now leading in the Polls. This means lots of famous wet Tory Remainers and LibDems are saving their career in politics by joining Reform UK, as Farage kicks out the unpopular right-wing populists and vaccine injured anti-vaxers.

    As part of the reorganisation of Reform UK, the Chairman has imposed a woke vetting system of activists, to remove right-wing campaigners who worked tirelessly to make Reform UK popular. Those right-wing plebes who delivered leaflets are no longer needed as Nigel Farage is leading in the polls and will now win the election with the help of Tony Blair and the same Blairite MP’s now in Parliament, but defecting to Reform UK.

    The next unreformed Parliament will have the same Members of Parliament, but under the ‘Reform UK’ Brand, because the news is that Tony Blair and lots of Blairites are now attracted to Reform UK due to its shinny new image and popularity.

      Richard – I think many ‘followers ‘ of Farage glossed over the fact that he wasn’t invited to the inauguration – which seemed strange at the time since Farage had appeared at campaign rallys and been lauded by 47.

      Maybe 47 – POTUS – found out Farage has been bought by Islam and is no longer valid or loyal to anyone ….

    I’ve just seen the piece about the latest TV drama that has every left-wing luvvie in Blighty creaming their ill fitting pants; Adolescence…Christ it look awful…

    Naturally enough, the assailant is a scrawny thirteen year old white lad, the typical hit job for fictional baddies in TV land. He looks nothing like the real life nutters, such as Axel Rudakubana, but I think our masters are trying to forget about him.

    And this young white boy looks nothing like the legion of fat, fifty year old Pakistani paedo’s that seem to infest vast swathes of my country, who spend their leisure hours raping little white girls.

    So, in essence, it’s about as true to life as all the other highly praised, anti-white propaganda that poses as drama on our TVs these days.

    But, if you’re going to portray toxic masculinity on the telly, choose a white lad.

    This shit will probably win an award…

    The danger may be that interpretation of the papers – after what has already been released – may cloud things again – meaning we will have to suffer another 4 hour Oliver stone film …

    The BBC are just relentless. The actual truth of something comes a distant second to their fake compassion and empathy. These articles are basically cheap virtue-signalling on behalf of the author.

    ”It’s him, it’s him!’ – Mother spots son deported from US in mega-prison footage’
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cz032xjyyzyo

    ‘In a poor neighbourhood of the Venezuelan city of Maracay, the mother of 24-year-old Francisco José García Casique was waiting for him on Saturday.’

    ‘It had been 18 months since he had migrated to the US to begin a new life but he had told her that he was now being deported back to Caracas, Venezuela’s capital, for being in the US illegally.’

    Sounds lovely : poor kid does good. What kind of new life might that be I wonder.

    You have to read quite a bit down the article to find that out:
    ‘The Trump administration says all of the deportees are members of the Tren de Aragua gang, which has found itself in the White House’s crosshairs. The powerful multi-national crime group, which Trump recently declared a foreign terrorist organisation, has been accused of sex trafficking, drug smuggling and murders both at home and in major US cities.’

    So a new life as a drug dealer then. Shame on you BBC for hiding the true nature of this scumbag.

    But wait:
    4ba33ad0-03e8-11f0-9b5f-37cf9b0724ba.jpg.webp
    ‘Myrelis Casique López insists her son is innocent and not a gang member’

    Oh – so he isn’t a drug dealer. I wonder how he ended up in that group then BBC ?.

    Note the picture of his poor mother and her denial are up at the top. The specifics of what he really is are lower down.

    After the brief paragraph of the truth, they devote the rest of the article by laying down thick empathy on top of his and other mother saying their sons are innocent:

    ‘”He’s a good, noble young man. There’s a mistake,” she said.’

    Here’s a still from a video the BBC have selected:

    efd9af70-04e8-11f0-97d3-37df2b293ed1.jpg.webp

    Is that sorry-looking ‘victim’ supposed to convince us he is innocent BBC ?. I wonder what his expression looked like when he was dealing his drugs and someone upset him.

    The BBC are quite prepared to portray drug dealers and murderers as innocent victims now, just as they are for Muslim terrorists. All for the sole purpose of trying to blame Trump. They have no ethics and no shame whatsoever. They are the lowest form of scum.

    How about an article on why Trump is doing this and the victims of these drug dealers BBC ?. Amazing how you don’t care about those when it doesn’t suit you.

        Quite true moggie.

        They are such shallow, self-centred creatures, they cannot relate to what other people are thinking about them. They realise this and over compensate by trying to write completely over the top empathy for anyone they consider to be a ‘victim’ to convince themselves (and others) they are the very best kind of people. Same as why they virtue-signal to such an extraordinary extent. That’s all there is : they don’t feel shame or embarassment at all as far as I can tell.

        It’s all fake. As we see by their attitude to anyone not on the agenda – such as 15 year old black boys stabbing other 15 year old black boys. They don’t actually give a shit unless it has something in it for them (eg to be used against the white Right).

    TOADY Watch #1 – You know it makes sense to stop paying TellyTax

    You are paying, effectively, if you pay the TV Licence Fee, for Sarah Smith – BBC’s North America Editor – to be idle or go on holiday somewhere maybe visiting family back in the UK, flights included! Maybe Sarah takes her family somewhere nice and warm in the US, again flights included?

    TOADY thus had to resort to Merlyn Thomas for a report from Washington on President Trump’s latest plan to take over the energy and nuclear plants in Ukraine, I guess in an attempt to stop Russia attacking them. That, I would have thought, must include US military in providing air cover and maybe military on the ground, too. That would be a significant escalation in the eyes of President Putin.

    The gynaeceum that is BBC news staff pick their mack daddy that is the Guardian for their top choice in the BBC online press line-up this morning. (Look up both terms – one in Collins Dictionary, or the Oxford English, the other in the Urban iteration)

    Biggest cuts since austerity era as Reeves tries to plug budget deficit (Guardian) – Well, that remains to be seen.

    Ah, that old Austerity Era. It plays the negative role in leftist mythology roughly analogous to an English patriot’s fond reference back to the Camelot of King Arthur’s Britain. They’d like to believe it existed but the tangible historical evidence just isn’t there. After a decade-and-a-half of Tory Cutz misrule – how come the country is bust? Boracic lint, skint – as the Cockneys would say.

    Since we’ve already opened the (virtual) pages of the Urban Dictionary I assume we’re sufficiently forewarned as to the meaning of the Guardian feature: ‘It’s pure stoke!’

    To association football fans – and I do not refer to heavily subsidised and freebie ticket recipient dedicated followers of the BBC & Guardian prioritised women’s version of the game – the term ‘stoked’ brings to mind the discomforts of the proverbial cold damp Wednesday evening away match in the Potteries.

    Distinctly a stuff non-Guardianista. In fact the Gruan is talking about the county home to bourgeois second homes and the home of legendary King Arthur-associated Tintagel: Cornwall’s long love affair with surfing (dude!)

    stoke
    1. the exhiliration/happiness a person finds in something
    2. the confidence gained in skating or surfing
    “Man, I really lost my stoke, I can’t even ollie anymore!”
    (Urban Dictionary) – Ollie of course does not refer in any way to Laurel and Hardy – it’s a skateboard manoeuver but let’s not get too far sidetracked.

    Number two in BBC press affections this morning is the i paper (‘Impartial News + Intelligent Debate’ – boasts the masthead motto – remind you of anything? BBC?)

    In fact the i paper exhibits an editorial line that’s very much youth-oriented and left-leaning; that promotes anti-family feminism, hypochondria and celebrity – but takes care only to challenge the Labour government from the left and naturally the one acceptable xenophobia for this internationalist title is Russian.

    EU ready to strike new defence pact with Britain to Putin at bay (i paper)

    Your Mr AsI is of course the connoisseur – some might say disparagingly the geeky stamp collector type – who enjoys nothing more than a clashing juxtaposed brace of headlines that put the lie to the prevailing narrative.

    He reaches down to the mid-table also-rans in the BBC online press parade and discovers a column in the pink pages of the Financial Times headed: EU locks UK, US and Turkey arms makers from €150bn spending slurge… excluded… unless their governments sign security pact with Brussels. (FT)

    Our friends sur le continent, eh? Remind me about all that fuss over Donald Trump bullying other nations with his tariffs.

    OK, that’s my juxtapositional work done for the day. Almost. But just to prove a point re the above…

    MILLIPEDE STRIKES AGAIN……

    With his new , no doubt expensive advert for heat pumps, Ed MILLIPEDE has done it again. A return to the days of cold , draughty , difficult to heat and keep warm homes. ( Muncaster castle…only Ed could have come up with that!) Let’s face it heatumps should come with a health warning, the years of expensive disappointment for anyone who gets one, will create another generation of mental health strugglers.

    Net zero…that could catch on, if only it was a reference to the activity in Eds brain

      https://inews.co.uk/news/heat-pumps-noisy-inefficient-claims-fact-checked-3538497

      Claim: Heat pumps are too noisy
      Verdict: Unclear

      Claim: Heat pumps use too much power
      Verdict: False

      Claim: Heat pumps are not effective
      Verdict: False

      “Proponents of heat pumps say they do not lead to cold homes often and when this does happen, it is due to the installer failing to build in adequate compensations like larger radiators.”

    Today my team received this remarkable message from a @BBC producer at @bbcworldservice.
    They don’t want to interview someone knowledgeable, nor someone relevant, just someone who fits the predetermined narrative.
    There is nothing balanced or impartial about this.

    So, entirely BBC.

    Starmer gets steadily more laughable. Apparently he has sent Putin a warning to respect the UK’s Nuclear capabilities.

    https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/2029713/keir-starmer-issues-warning-vladimir

    Someone with a brain needs to tell him that the UK would be far easier to obliterate in a nuclear onslaught than the huge areas of Russia. Basically these islands could be pretty much all be gone in 20 minutes before vast swathes of Russia were even touched.

    Bloody unbelievable and bloody dangerous posturing and conceit to brag his self-regarded global standing if you ask me!

      “Vladimir Putin “appreciates” Britain’s nuclear capabilities and understands they are “credible”, Keir Starmer has declared. The Prime Minister, who will hold talks with military chiefs on Thursday about deploying peacekeepers to Ukraine, said the nuclear deterrent has been “incredibly effective…for decades”.

      He said the Kremlin respects the UK’s nuclear arsenal because “we’ve got our own independent deterrent and we’re committed to NATO”. Sir Keir said: “What is obviously important is they appreciate that it is what it is which is a credible capability. And that it most certainly is.”

    Irishman talks about the deterioration of his homeland at the White House so naturally the BBC step in with their usual mix of deceit and stupidity — “Irish police reject McGregor’s ‘Dublin is dangerous’ claim”.

    Gardaí said they don’t “comment on ‘uninformed’ third party remarks. But a spokesperson said: “It is, however, a statement of fact that according to the Global Peace Index, Ireland is ranked second only to Iceland.”

    Great, except McGregor specified the city of Dublin — not Ireland. And last year Dublin ranked ninth on an index of Europe’s most dangerous cities at night. Switch categories and hope the public won’t notice… just the sort of misuse of stats the BBC will run with.

    Apparently, David Lammy has gotten up on his hind legs to mouth off on the subject of Israel and Gaza. He thinks that no aid going in to Gaza is dreadful and is a ‘crime against humanity’. David Lammy should realise 1. that any aid taken in to Gaza is done under UNRWA and the UN’s body has been complicit with Hamas, and 2. that Hamas steal much of the aid and then sell it to Palestinians for a profit which they then reinvest in new weapons with which to attack Israel. ‘Gullibles travels’ should be a label hung round Lammy’s neck permanently. The Montacutie then interviews – or lets a UN female – witter on at some length.
