    The BBC are revelling in the ‘Trump-created’ finance meltdown and are providing ‘helpful’ advice as to what it might mean for we ordinary plebs.
    They mention pensions . And are keen to differentiate between defined benefit schemes ( which are rock solid and totally unaffected by the current situation) and defined contribution schemes (where the individual takes all the risk and has seen the value of his pension pot go down by 5-10% in the last week)..
    But strangely the BBC somehow managed to forget to mention that the defined benefit schemes are almost exclusively public sector pensions (subsidised by all taxpayers) whilst defined contribution schemes are almost exclusively private sector pensions.(largely unsubsidised by other taxpayers).
    A more telling example of BBC bias would be hard to find.
    Not to mention TTK.

    ‘Asian markets open higher despite Trump’s latest China tariffs threat’
    https://www.bbc.com/news/live/cp8vyy35g3mt

    ‘Despite’. One of the clear signs of the BBC getting desperate when an agenda topic doesn’t go the way they want it to. Particularly when they have set up one of their ‘live updates’ so they can stream every bad headline as it comes in.

    And look at the picture they use:
    97313ba0-140a-11f0-ba12-8d27eb561761.jpg

    They have now given up any pretence of being impartial about Trump. They have been given the green light by OFCOM’s silence as they have gradually ramped up their bias.

    The BBC are now a complete and utter farce. They are all activists driven by hate of the Right. And as the world has enough of them and starts leaning to the Right, they are getting much worse.

          Luton Sikh-Muslim protest: ‘Positive’ police meeting

          Published

          31 May 2012

          A “constructive” and “positive” meeting has been held between police and the Sikh and Muslim communities following a protest at a Luton police station.

          The groups held talks on Wednesday after hundreds of Sikhs gathered at Buxton Road on Tuesday night.

          The protest was over allegations a Muslim man had assaulted a Sikh woman.

          Police said officers were working with the two groups and wanted any concern about criminal activity to be reported.
          ‘Cultural sensitivities’

          Speaking after the meeting, Sikh representative Jaswinder Singh Nagra said: “I think it was very constructive.

          “We need to educate the police about our cultural sensitivities.”

          His thoughts were echoed by Qazi Abdul Aziz Chishti, president of the Sunni Mosque Council in Luton, who was also at the meeting.

          “We will work together not only on this issue, but on all issues,” he told the BBC.

          “We have formed a working group with the Sikh community.”

          Bedfordshire Police Ch Supt Mike Colbourne said: “We want the public to report any issues, fears or concerns that they have.”

    Prospect of recession? I wasn’t, but nothing like the bbc to talk us into one, and obviously blame President Trump if this happens. Nothing to do with the employer tax rises, imposed by this labour government!, and job losses

      Morning Andy,

      Off-topic, but this headline shows the latest bbc trend, namely starting with “chris mason”. Read the story, and you won’t find any mention of “chris mason”. Apparently, he’s the chap who penned the article, and who thinks that he is so important that his name should be the first thing you read.

      Coonsberg, derbyshire, and the cartoonish spring woman all do it. They really do believe that they are the most important part of the story.

      Any increase in my pension has now been swallowed up by a rise in power bills, (Millitwat’s manic fantasy), Insurance, (police do bugger all about burglary, car theft etc), and of course, the Poll Tax,which has gone up nearly 5%, to pay for fewer services and the huge increase in LA ‘workers’ pensions.

      All these increases have happened under Starmer’s pathetic attempts at being a Prime Minister. He’s never a leader, just a typical barrack-room lawyer, intent on feathering his own pomposity by strutting around the globe pretending he can save everyone – except British citizens…

    Only reason I read this was to find this:
    ‘Conservative Justice Amy Coney Barrett joined the court’s three liberal justices in dissenting with the majority ruling.’

    The BBC include the Democrat minority for the Supreme court every single time they don’t like the result – with the inference clearly being that they are biased. They never point out that all the Judges who are trying to sabotage Trump’s presidency are Democrats.

    This is how they lie.

      Never heard of much, except the usual suspects in The Kent Messenger and The Kent Courier, but their evidence has to be compared with all the rape gangs terrorising the Northern towns and cities, but presumably they don’t count in the awful Beeboid’s eyes, because they’re allowed to do it as part of their ‘religion’.

    Apologies, because this has nothing to do with the BBC, it’s just something that’s been troubling me. Anyway…

    Yesterday, I ventured out for a little ramble with the dog. It’s a lovely walk through the Surrey countryside, but before I reach this area I have to traverse a footbridge across the M25.

    Usually we have this bridge to ourselves, but yesterday, walking towards us, were half a dozen surly looking sub-Saharan Africans and a swarthy Arab. Now, is this my built in bigotry, but I found this “mob” slightly alarming?

    What I mean is, this area is about as ethnically diverse as most of Blighty was in the 1950s…that’s one of the reasons I love it here. So this lot, mooching aimlessly about, 60ft above the M25 looked suspicious to me.

    I’m guessing that you’re thinking the same as me, but what could I do? Phone the police? I don’t think so. I’d be more likely to get nicked on some concocted hate crime charge. If there’s an authority that looks into “suspicious behaviour”, then I don’t know about it.

    So, they went on their way…probably to that well known convention of brain surgeons and nuclear physicists that’s held annually in the Reigate area…and we headed up the the north downs…Beautiful it was too…

    Was I being paranoid? Overly suspicious? Bigoted?

    What do you think?

      Jeff, you could have replicated my walk at the weekend.

      Little dog and I strolled around the fields along the riverbank. I would add my area is not diverse, but on the opposite side sat 2 possibly African men – one hooded.
      I carried on across the road and walked around the park. Coming towards me was another black man – no dog. This disconcerted me and I felt vulnerable. I did a mental check of anything sharp I had on me for defense. Nothing apart from dog lead but keys were a possibility.

      As we passed I said good morning and he replied, but it didn’t stop me from looking over my shoulder until I was a good way away.

      Yes I’m also wary of white chaps walking without a dog quite innocently but 3 big black blokes gave a bigger feeling of unease.

    ……………………………………………

    The butter mountain is a supply surplus of butter produced in the European Union because of government interventionism that began in the 1970s. The size of the surplus changed significantly over time and mostly disappeared by 2017, which led to shortages.[1] Other surpluses were described as beef mountains, milk lakes, wine lakes and grain mountains.

    Excesses existed because the agricultural policies were designed to stabilise prices for farmers and consumers and to ensure that there was enough produce at all times, but production varied from year to year, so in most years there was an excess. Excesses were often sold off cheaply either within the EU or to other markets.

    Londonistan.
    Population 8-10 million.
    Lots going on.
    So which story did the BBC headline on the lunchtime news?
    Why, the opening of an LGBTQ cinema, of course!!!!

    Quite how this squares with the positive BBC stories at all times about Islam is not obvious. Such as https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2025/04/05/bbc-accused-of-islamist-propaganda-muslim-revert-convert/
    Unless you accept the thesis that the strategic aim of the Far Left is to undermine society.
    Anything that achieves that is to be supported.

    Popular cultural messaging – as curated for us by the State

    A couple of instances.

    Firstly, have you noticed those don’t forget to register to vote adverts?

    The first three individuals we see are female but appear coded as lesbian.

    Geeky whacky hair-styled ethnic smiles in the student library at nose ringed, junk jewelry, male adolescent-type large logoed sloganed graphic t-shirt with short cropped hair, cut to middle-aged outlandishly framed Dame Edna Everage-style spectacles… her local posty at least is a later middle-aged white guy…

    Cut to the black woman lovingly tending her suburban front garden – Margo Leadbetter style – eliciting admiration over the fence from her female neighbour – there’s a familar sight you see nearly every day in Surbiton.

    And so it goes on… the next three characters we focus on are black. The basketball playing black youth of course prefers to hang with his white bros – of course he does.

    Gritty Cinéma-vérité 2025-style: Adolescence – white working class youth, from a stable two parent family, an unquestioning sponge absorbing online hate. Vilified, interrogated, pathologised and branded a murderous danger to society.

    Gritty Cinéma-vérité 1969-style: Kes – white working class youth, who has a difficult life, takes up an interest in falconry when he finds a kestrel. Comes from a dysfunctional working-class family and is a no-hoper at school, but discovers his own private means of fulfilment.

    Just got into Pompey via Brittany Ferries, cheaper than a rubber boat. Anyway, went into Southsea to do a bit of shopping (via Wethspoons, £1.99 a pint, get it while it’s going) went into Saltrock shop, talked the the rainbow haired, bemettalled face beauty. Said it was a shame that Sainsburys caffs were closing and laying off so many workers. She blamed the orange faced baboon in the White House. Are these people for real or is it just the BBC watchers?

    Two examples of the BBC mindset that informs their approach to broadcasting…

    Yesterday we were told that truth is now merely ‘what we feel to be true’….and that is dangerous….and apparetnly a right-wing trope.

    Er…hang on….it’s a left-wing trope that the BBC has pushed assiduously….you know…the ‘their own truth’ ala the likes of Meghan Markle. But they were right about one thing…it is dangerous.

    And today Woman’s Hour heroically resisted trying to glorify Jiang Qing [and almost succeeded]…one of the architects of the mass murder of millions of Chinese and the targeted persecution of over 100 million in the Red Terror. She may have killed millions but…she was a victim of the patriarchy and before she turned into a homicidal maniac was an aspiring actress and feminist….hurrah!
    And that victim of the patriarchy? She was a serial adultress and her relationship with Mao gave her enormous power…which she used….to no good effect.
    There was lots of empathy for her from the programme….somehow can’t imagine the same level of empathy or excuse making for Hitler….or even Nigel Farage, Trump or Musk….or JK Rowling.

    How long before the ‘settled science’ of climate chnage is also questioned?….

    ‘Is everything we know about the universe wrong?’

    ‘For the last week or so, the world of physics has had just one conversation.

    Have we found a new way of understanding the universe? And if so, what does this mean for our understanding of how we all came to exist – and even our fate?

    These big questions were prompted by new data from the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument team at the Kitt Peak National Observatory in Arizona. To explain what was found, whether it’s right and just how excited we should be, we’re joined by astrophysics professor Catherine Heymans and cosmologist Andrew Pontzen. ‘

    Today ex-Tory MP and now Reform candidate Andrea Jenkyns
    … Now here’s a lit of gotcha questions , you can only answer Yes/No

    Now sum up in one sentence why you should be Lincolnshire Mayor
    AJ “em ah..”
    No sorry we are out of time ”
    AJ” Hey this is wrong you didn’t treat the other candidates like this !”
    … “You got the same amount of tie as they did byee”
    =======================

    AJ tweeted “I have been told on very good authority the BBC has been phoning around some of the candidates today, trying to stir things and get comments about me and Reform.
    I have also just done a very biased interview with BBC Look North. They gave the Conservative candidate last week an easy ride, and the presenters’ biased views clearly showed in this interview.
    I have stood in many elections for council and as an MP, but I have never known such underhand tactics from opposition. “

    Ukraine captures two Chinese nationals fighting for Russia
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cx2vg1x7g32o

    ‘In a statement on social media platform X, Zelensky said the soldiers were captured in Ukraine’s eastern Donetsk region with identification documents, including bank cards which had “personal data” on them.’
    ‘Ukraine’s forces fought six Chinese soldiers and took two of them prisoner, he said.’

    The corrupt little gnome is outraged that Chinese are fighting for Russia. Almost certainly mercenaries.

    Meanwhile Ukraine has had 20,000 foreigners fighting for it in it’s ‘International Legion’
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Legion_(Ukraine)

    ‘The Ukrainian president called for a response “from the United States, Europe, and all those around the world who want peace”.’
    That would just be Trump then.

    This ridiculous man keeps making these stupid statements and the BBC keep reporting them as if he is some kind of war guru. He’s a f*cking comedian off the TV.

    Mind you, I doubt the BBC clone has any idea at all what is really going on. I doubt she could even check the oil in her car.

    ‘Royal Mail launches mythical creatures stamp collection’
    ‘JD Vance’s cousin criticises him for ‘belittling’ Zelensky’
    ‘My daughter is 45 but second homes in Cornwall have forced her to live with me’
    etc etc.

    I’ve noticed how the BBC put these clueless clones on ANY story now – no matter what the gravity. Which in turn makes me even more certain that they are all actually dictated by a small central political-agenda team. The clones are basically secretaries doing as they are told.
    With Marianna-pants-on-fire being the most obvious of the lot.

    The question I have is who are these few people who can wield such a mighty organisation as the BBC to spread their own political agenda ?. We should know EXACTLY who these people are. We can only know they even exist by inferring it as I have done.
