Seems an “English” bloke up north originally from Iran gave the police a fast car chase which resulted in several police cars being smashed up and several officers seriously injured on the A1. The bloke had a track record of motoring offences and got behind the wheel again while out on bail awaiting trial even though warned not to.
Now I would have expected a custodial result while awaiting trial as he obviously couldn’t give a toss for the courts or police.
I see plenty of his type in the city centre near me when I venture in,
Always seem to have nice new looking BMW’s etc speeding up and down the roads, never seem to see them doing any work though, other than looking after their many many water melon and oranges shops usually 4 or 5 or more all next to each.
All legitimate I’m sure. I just didn’t realise how many people buy water melons at 1 o’clock in the morning.
I’m looking forward to the BBC exposure of increasing numbers of these shops !
The Free Speech Union is helping Renaud Camus, the French philosopher who came up with the ‘Great Replacement’ theory, fight the Home Office ban on him entering the UK
“Lord Young said: “If Mr Camus wants to be sure of being able to visit the United Kingdom, maybe he should come over in a dinghy in the middle of the night. That way, he’s guaranteed entry.”
By alienating those that traditionally support the monarchy, and embracing those that never will, King Charles is making a better case for the abolition of his role than the ardent republicans among his subjects.
Does anyone, like me notice the irony in the NASUWT banging on about influencers? The left leaning purple haired, trans promoting tw@s have been doing the influencing for the last 50 years in our schools. Now the kids are listening to someone else they don’t like it. How many teenagers have they influenced into taking the wrong option? God knows, but look where its got this country!

Trump team reveals lack of expertise – and patience – as it threatens to abandon Ukraine peace talks | Trump administration | The Guardian – The US envoy “appeared surprised on Fox News that Russia wanted much more” than just a ceasefire.” Umm.
Does that ‘Umm’ mean he is not an utter TDS shill?
When Peace was within reach in Ukraine, and prior to the needless deaths of hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian men, this person convinced Zelensky to scrap the peace plan and "fight on"

Just flicking through some BBC channels to try and find the snooker scores.
Tried BBC1 first, and it’s Dr Who. It took just 10 seconds to see why it has become such an embarrassment. Black/gay timelord with BAME companion in some diner in presumably the USA. The Doctor says something about racial segregation and how, because they’re both black, they’d probably get arrested just for being there.
Come back Tom Baker all is forgiven. Off switch after 10 seconds. Jesus wept.
BBC not coping very well with peace breaking out in Ukraine with Putin’s sudden Easter only special ceasefire announcement.
Best they’ve come up with do far is quoting the known liar:
“Zelensky says Russian attacks continuing after Putin announces ‘Easter truce’ ”
And some meaningless – “Air raid sirens sound in Kyiv despite Easter truce agreement -”
While visiting a Muslim community center in London, Princess Kate is forced to wear an Islamic veil and has her handshake rejected by the community leader.
British society is being dragged back 1,000 years.
Well, why William and Kate are waisting time meeting members of this disrespectful backwood death cult mystifies me.
And why is she wearing a head scarf. Does she realise what fate will become of her when they take over her ,Kings Country.
Caught a bit of Times Radio down at James May’s pub where they interviewed him…including about his ownership of a Tesla car…..just why would he have one when Musk is doing all this ‘doge’ stuff? Er….all that ‘doge’ stuff? You mean rooting out corruption, theft and waste on a massive scale? He really is the most awful person isn’t he?
Times hates Trump even more than the BBC does…or makes it more viscerally obvious…and so Musk must also get it just for his association with Trump. The media really is the most corrupt, broken and dangerous bunch of charlattans and guttersnipes….their hypocrisy literally knows no bounds…they who eagerly pumped out Putin’s propaganda about Trump [that dodgy dossier] whilst ironically claiming Trump was Putin’s puppet when it was they themselves doing Putin’s dirty work. They are scum.
R4’s Newsquiz…usual tosh but also Athena Kugblenu who hoped that the West would crumble…all that democracy, human rights, enlightenment, successful capitalist economies that vastly improved life for the peoples…it was all to much for her….and she wasn’t joking…much like that other black who said, in all seriousness and on a BBC programme, we should ‘kill Whitey’. Where does the BBC get them from?
You know they hate the West and White people. As someone once said…when they get the whip hand…..all those white BBC comedians won’t be laughing along then.
‘This is the contention that a liberal elite is deliberately ‘replacing’ white, indigenous Europeans with non-white, mostly Muslim migrants. He writes of a ‘genocide by substitution’ of white Europeans, organised by a ‘genocidal bloc’ of political parties and interests. He accuses migrants from the Middle East and North Africa of staging a ‘colonial and genocidal occupation’ of the West. ‘
Trouble is Spiked thinks the great replacement is a dangerous lie….
‘To suggest Camus merely ‘criticises mass immigration’, or is simply ‘alarmed by immigration’, as some UK outlets have euphemistically suggested, is to severely undersell just how inflammatory, hysterical and obnoxious his arguments are.
he is best known internationally for popularising the phrase ‘the great replacement’ in hard-right and far-right circles. This is the contention that a liberal elite is deliberately ‘replacing’ white, indigenous Europeans with non-white, mostly Muslim migrants. He writes of a ‘genocide by substitution’ of white Europeans, organised by a ‘genocidal bloc’ of political parties and interests. He accuses migrants from the Middle East and North Africa of staging a ‘colonial and genocidal occupation’ of the West.
Many Britons are indeed worried about mass and illegal migration, but are surely observant enough to recognise that they are not actually victims of a ‘genocide’ or living under a kind of reverse ‘colonisation’. ‘
Really? He clearly hasn’t seen the joy that the BBC et al express when they report the new demographics that show white people being outnumbered in their own countries and not least the efforts to irradicate ‘whiteness’ and to destroy white history, culture and society.
The Great Replacement is real and very dangerous….and they really don’t want you to know it’s happening and the BBC will gaslight you about it…
‘…. the Great Replacement Theory. It’s a racist far-right conspiracy theory that falsely states there’s a secret plan to replace white people through increased immigration and other means.
Many far-right terrorists have referenced this theory as the driving force behind their murderous actions – but where does this idea originate from, and how seriously should we be taking its proliferation here in the UK? ‘
‘Trans rights activists defaced a statue of Millicent Fawcett during a protest against the Supreme Court’s ruling on the definition of a woman.
The Parliament Square statue of the suffragist, a prominent campaigner for women’s rights in the 19th century, was daubed with graffiti reading “f– rights” on Saturday.’
Just remember that the BBC was fully on-board the trans bandwagon providing not just propaganda on its behalf but actually helping to lure vulnerable youngsters down that dangerous pathway…grooming them and recruiting them for the trans lobby.
It still is fully onboard of course….it won’t be long before it cranks up the full-on attacks on the law and any who want it enforced.
With Ireland now getting lots of new scientists and doctors arriving I got to wonder.
Do they have the grooming gangs in Ireland ?
If they start doing to young Irish girls what they’ve been doing to our little girls I can’t imagine the Irish being so meek as we are and just accepting everything the way it’s been covered up here.
I imagine the groomers will get a taste of Irish ‘justice’ if they try it over there.
Does it happen in other Countries such as Germany, Italy or Denmark for example. If so, how do they react?
Do they just lie down as we’ve done or do they mete out some kind of retribution.
Haven`t heard much from the BBC about trans people and their `rights` in other countries especially EU ones .
Usually it`s about Britain lagging behind what they deem as progressive countries in their favourite subjects . Oh dear , are other nations more conservative than the BBC likes ?
‘More than 80 people have attended a protest against a legal ruling that biology defines whether or not a person is a woman’.
80!!!!! FFS.
Yes, when it’s to do with Trans, the Trans-obsessed BBC headline an activity on a par with the hourly rate of customers at our local chip shop at lunchtime. An event which, though of comparable public interest, and a good deal greater public enjoyment, does not make it onto the BBC webshite.
What a bunch of total cretins form the BBC editorial team.
The BBC has a reputation for huge bias when it comes to protests
eg for TR protest and CovidPolicy protests they try to make out the numbers are a tenth of what they really are ..a crowd of thousands will be referred to as “hundreds”
And they will make out that they caused large amounts of violence.
Then for counter protesters the BBC reporting is completely the other way , hiding genuine violence etc.
However on Friday local BBC was different
Big Opening item :”Protest at Scunthorpe steel plant”
I was expecting hundreds of pre-printed placards run by the unions.
However
# 1 The protest showed only 6 women
(THat seems a staged shot that removed the children that are shown on the ladies own Facebook)
#2 She does seem a genuine long term protester , as her husband works on the blast furnaces
#3 She is not a lefty, but is calling for nationalisation
#4 The item shown. First the leader speaking followed by another older woman
Eh up, you see from the screen captions they have the same surname
From Facebook it seems they are daughter and mother
The BBC chose not to mention that
So the BBC gave big coverage to a protest to a protest by ONE family and their 4 friends and children.
Perhaps reporting of other protests is suppressed under election purdah rules,
ie don’t report a protest by a union affiliated to the Labour Party .
When you add up the cost of extra green measures already started cos the government had always forced them on the plant my guess taxpayers will pay £6bn upfront
That’s CCS scheme, hydrogen fuel pipeline scheme .. , 2 new electric arc furnaces
and decommissioning of blast furnaces etc.
Plus the taxpayer will fork out for the high green energy prices and carbon taxes the government mandates.
If you are interested in the AI talking out of both sides of its mouth
see here
I asked “@Grok is this a source of information about 4 bombings in Sweden on Friday ?”
It replied “No MSM reported this”,
Usual Sunday non-headlines in the awful Beeboid website about some ‘anti-Trump’ protests in the US…
I’ll save everyone here the bother of even clicking on a link, as it’s a worthless flip-flop of nutters and idiots’ opinions, scribbled by childish stammerers of Sith Floor Agenda, and you can even smell the spittle dribbling from the puckered little face…
Of course the ageing (aching) Graun has the ‘story’, so does the AP and other peculiar US stuff, but funnily enough, the normal-reading Sunday Rags like The Mail and The Express don’t seem in the least bit bothered!
I can only assume that the twonks who listen to and believe the BBC just cannot read, or understand actual facts, and just turn on their 7 ft TV screens each morning thinking they’re going to learn something!
They really are desperate in W1AA now, that must be a sign of a further few thousand non-payers reaching to cancel the direct debit to pay for things like Mad Clown Disease!
(Note to self – check The Sunday Sport website for proper news)…
This tells you all you need to know about these far left philistines:
“Rachel Reeves was accused of being ‘ashamed to embrace British history and tradition’ after the full list of artworks she has removed from No 11 was obtained by The Mail on Sunday.
Portraits of Sir Isaac Newton and former prime ministers including William Pitt and Henry Pelham have been replaced by baffling abstract paintings depicting ‘Covid anxiety’ and social distancing.
The Chancellor has removed 31 works of art either featuring men or by male artists in order to celebrate the ‘amazing women who have gone before us’.
This newspaper revealed last week that Sir Keir Starmer had removed 69 artworks from No 10 – including portraits of Elizabeth I, and William Shakespeare.
He also removed a portrait of Margaret Thatcher from his Downing Street study, claiming that he does not like ‘images and pictures of people staring down at me’.
Ms Reeves has followed suit by ‘deinstalling’ the portrait of former chancellor and prime minister Benjamin Disraeli, as well as King James I and II.
And while Sir Keir swapped his historic paintings for contemporary works including a depiction of a reggae festival and others inspired by Nigerian and Ghanaian culture, the Chancellor opted for art commemorating the Covid lockdowns.”
These antics with removing paintings are just like a bunch or air-head teenagers, sticking up posters of every new boy band on their bedroom walls to show their mates how ‘cool’ they are!
The immaturity of the supposed government people we have to endure is a close parallel to children’s aspirations to be ‘stars’, or ‘promising footballers’ – even ‘chess players’, when it’s a racing certainty, they never, ever will be!
It really is a pathetic situation, but mind you, the loopy Biden moved a lot his stuff out including Winston Churchill’s bust, but he was probably unaware of why or who he was…
Awake early, Mrs S and I mused over the imminent Toady on Sunday and wondered, on Easter Day, how they would showcase the usual positive cuddly pro Muslim stories.
We didn’t need to wait long.
The very first story was how a Mosque in Birmingham is helping with litter picking during the bin strike.
The very next story was about how a theatre workshop for refugees and asylum seekers had encouraged the faith of one of their number. No prizes for working out which faith.
In other observations….
The word ‘Easter’ appeared only once, and after over half an hour and only in this context. ‘Because it’s Easter we had to talk to our contact at the Roman Catholic Church ……in Gaza!!!’
If you need more how about this? There was a feature on the 30 th anniversary of the comedy ‘Father Ted’. They interviewed a lady from the production team. She enthused about how wonderful and brilliant were the scripts. What was not mentioned was that one of those wonderful and brilliant scriptwriters was Graham Linehan. He has been ostracised from the profession and denied work because of his belief in biological sex, about which he has written and latterly spoken. The Trans lobby (so cool, so progressive, so happening)had it in for him and the media profession spinelessly fell into line. His marriage fell apart. He is relocating to America.

The Home Office has barred Renaud Camus, a controversial French philosopher, from entering the UK.
They claim that his presence is “not conducive to the public good”.
But is that a consistent standard? Let’s look at some of the people that they’ve allowed to come to the UK
Maybe the Home Office has fewer Francophiles than those with closer ties elsewhere?
Britain is bad enough, but there is a really nasty authoritarian streak in Australia. How exactly are owners meant to stop cats “roaming”? Cats go where they like.
Clicked on the front page of Al Beeb’s news page, nothing but absolutely nothing about Easter.
Whether you have any truck with Christianity or not, you would expect some reference to the UK’s largest religion and Easter day.
Guess what, Google is exactly the same.
That trans sums them – and the more extreme Lefties – up perfectly.
A nasty b@st@rd full of spite with a dirty mouth.
I wonder if the recent ruling means that we no longer have to use the ridiculous pronouns : now a man is legally a man whatever he wears, it’s only right he is referred to as ‘he’ though I’m sure the BBC will still do it in one of their typical agenda ‘f*ck you’ tantrums with their bottom lips stuck out.
Ukraine have regularly targetted civilian areas from the very start of this war. The BBC were even proud of it and informed us (via their weasel words) it was a legitimate thing to do to turn the people against Putin. The words ‘war crimes’ were nowhere to be seen.
My favourite extreme-double standard of these hypocrites though is still when they printed that it was a good thing to give Ukraine cluster bombs as it would shorten the war and thus save lives.
Labour ministers are secretly plotting to defy the landmark court ruling that men who change gender are not legally women, leaked WhatsApp messages obtained by The Mail on Sunday have revealed.
The Government claimed to welcome the Supreme Court judgment – but the exchanges reveal the private fury on Sir Keir Starmer’s frontbench, with ministers planning to hold a meeting this week to ‘decide a way forwards’ and ‘organise’.
In the messages, sent on Thursday evening, Culture Minister Sir Chris Bryant joined an attack on Baroness Falkner, chairwoman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), who earlier that day had said that the ruling – that a woman is defined by biological sex – clearly meant trans women could not use single-sex female facilities or compete in women’s sports.
Daily Mail on it, but it’ll be lost in the noise of Meghan etcetera…
‘In the first six hours of the “Easter truce” – as ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin – Zelensky said there had been 387 shellings and 19 assaults by Russian forces, and drones used 290 times. There are no reports of casualties.’
Did he provide any evidence BBC ?. Because if Trump makes any bold claims, you always tell us if he didn’t.
But anyway, aside from giving the ridiculous statements from Zelensky full credibility and never questioning his absurd claims, it seems the BBC offerr this picture as evidence of the attack:
The we are told:
‘Putin ordered his forces to “stop all military activity” in Ukraine from 18:00 Moscow time (16:00 BST) on Saturday until midnight on Sunday. Kyiv said it would also adhere.’
So once again we are being shown fake-news pictures (ie straight lies) to back up the propaganda.
How can I take anything at all the BBC tell me seriously when I discover lies and double-standards like this ?. I can only prove these because so much information is on the internet. Just imagine the lies they tell when they are confident nobody can know the real truth ?.
Talk TV discussion about shopping centres
Exasperated caller asks why the establishment tolerates immigrant misbehaviour like pervy street gangs and money laundering shops.
The biggest success that Islam has had in the West is to cement the one word islamaphobia into everyday speech and in particular in the left wing press.
It is more effective in squashing any opposition than any other weapon they might have used….mainly because our legal system has embraced it totally in the most stupid way imaginable.
This really is paying for the rope that will hang you.

Nothing to do with anything but I’ve got a question which has been stuck in my head for a few hours so can anybody answer it.
There’s an LP cover with the Holbein anamorphic painting called The Ambassadors (below) where there is a skull visible when viewed sideways.
I think it may be a group along the lines of Fairport Convention or Sandy Denny.
I believe Greenday may have used it but it’s the earlier LP, probably from the ‘70’s that’s got me trying to remember what it is.
Anybody remember the LP?
The original album cover for White Light/White Heat is a faint image of a tattoo of a skull.
it was Warhol’s idea to use a black-on-black picture of the tattoo
On the physical version of the album, this can only be seen when viewing the cover from a certain angle
This may or may not be the answer, but Steeleye Span’s album “All Around My Hat” featured an album cover described by Wikipedia –
“The album cover and back was designed by John O’Connor, a friend of the band’s guitarist Tim Hart, using an anamorphic projection that distorted the facial features of the band members but which looks correct when viewed from the side through special pinholes in the lyric sheet.”
NS
Thanks for the reply.
It’s not that cover.
It’s possible the Ambassadors painting was in the album cover but not the whole cover or maybe just the anamorphic skull part.
Zephir.
Thanks but it was neither of those.
I’m thinking folk rock types of music.
Steeleye Span, Fotheringay or similar.
I remember a mate of mine had the LP bought from the Naafi when I was in the Army in Hildesheim during the early 70’s.
I couldn’t see the skull (the anamorphic part) but I was looking L to R where I think R to L shows it better.
‘Cancer gave me the courage to admit I’m transgender’ shrieks an article on the BBC webshite. How long did they have to dig to dredge this one up? In what possible way is it of interest to anybody? The BBC, world leaders in wasting the telly tax.
The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom may be headed for a major scandal, as rumors intensify about explosive CCTV footage allegedly showing Keir Starmer and Lord Alli in compromising positions inside a private office.
What’s the point? To my mind it simply confirms what many people already thought was happening. I’d have more respect for him if he owned up and took the quincyquonces. He won’t though. It’ll be somebody else’s fault.
I’d have not much more respect for him if he’d fessed up years ago – like a lot of his ilk – he wants his cake etc… and hypocrite runs through him like “Blackpool” in a stick of seaside rock candy.
Zephir – it’s a bulging can of worms – once the lid’s off it’d ripple though the establishment big time – shame there aren’t wascals like Clarissa Dixon Wright around to stir things….
We know gossip is a staple of social interaction in some circles…. loose lips sink….
On the day of London Pride, it's worth noting that after the election there will probably be 100 openly gay MPs in new House of Commons, more than 15%. Indeed, if Labour gets a huge majority, it could reach 130, or 20%. But the rise in numbers isn't just among Labour…
Lord Alli to get his excuses in early …. “That is very nice. Ehsan Abdulaziz: Saudi millionaire who said he ‘accidentally tripped and penetrated’ teenage girl cleared of rape

Walking in the footsteps of Jeff on this beautiful sunny morning … going for a countryside walk with little dog, I returned to settle down with a coffee to watch a black and white film from 1959.
I couldn’t believe to see a trigger warning about language and attitudes of the time etc before it started. I mean, there was no effing and blinding, no blatant nudity, certainly no thuggery, violence or scenes of shooting up drugs. So God knows why a Warning was issued. The film? “I’m Alright Jack” with a stellar cast of the best of English actors – the fabulous Ian Carmichael / Peter Sellars / Terry Thomas (an absolute shower) – who could take offence at them ?.
It’s a great film of a gentler time but enjoyable showing management and the upper and working classes competing. Even the wokery lot might enjoy it.
“Revealed: The trick Irish traveller families used at six bars in the same town… before suing them for thousands.
A group of Irish travellers went on an alternative pub crawl – going to six different bars in the same area of suburban London, arguing with bar staff in each and then suing them all for thousands of pounds as victims of racism.
The incident is the most apparently cynical yet in the growing scandal of ‘manufactured’ legal cases for prejudice which has been described as ‘the biggest threat to the hospitality industry since Covid’.
A Daily Mail investigation revealed a tidal wave of recent legal claims have been filed by groups of Travellers who allege they have been refused service by a pub, bar, or restaurant on the grounds of racism.
At least 200 pubs have now been sued by a handful of Traveller families, with one group, the Mongans, featuring 122 times.
Its most prolific claimant, Brian Mongan, was behind 44 claims while members of the McDonagh family featured 25 times, we revealed.”
And this is actual, real genocide, will we see people on the streets protesting ?
“Fears remain this Easter that Christians in Nigeria are being ‘wiped out’ by Muslim extremists.
Islamist militants have reportedly killed thousands of Christians in Nigeria.
The killing and persecution of Christians by Islamist militants intent on creating a muslim caliphate in this West African country is continuing apparently unchecked despite the population being 46% Christian.
“Nigeria’s Christians are being wiped out; we need to call it what it is — genocide,” Jeff King, president of International Christian Concern (ICC), a persecution watchdog, told Fox News Digital.
“Let’s start with the horrible attacks on April 2-3, 2025, in (Nigeria’s) Plateau State’s Bokkos County. Over 60 Christians (were) slaughtered, and 383 homes torched” King said. “Families were burned alive, and kids were left homeless. It’s gut-wrenching. The worst thing is that there’s nothing truly “special” about this attack. This has gone on for 20 years and has only expanded.”

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cewgj1p79j4o
Makes one wonder how this would have panned out justicewise if he had been born up north rather than Iran does it not?
Maybe TTK might explain for us?
I wonder what part they cut off in Iran for that kind of offence ?
I see plenty of his type in the city centre near me when I venture in,
Always seem to have nice new looking BMW’s etc speeding up and down the roads, never seem to see them doing any work though, other than looking after their many many water melon and oranges shops usually 4 or 5 or more all next to each.
All legitimate I’m sure. I just didn’t realise how many people buy water melons at 1 o’clock in the morning.
I’m looking forward to the BBC exposure of increasing numbers of these shops !
Pete,
It’s much the same in Lutonistan.
Usual mob again, what was I saying about purple hair a couple of days ago ?

do seem to like expressing their total individualalty by all having the same colour rather agressive purple looking hair.

BBC not coping very well with peace breaking out in Ukraine with Putin’s sudden Easter only special ceasefire announcement.
Best they’ve come up with do far is quoting the known liar:
“Zelensky says Russian attacks continuing after Putin announces ‘Easter truce’ ”
And some meaningless – “Air raid sirens sound in Kyiv despite Easter truce agreement -”

Yeah….but it’s Andrew Tate who is the problem…oh yeah…he’s a Muslim too….maybe there’s a common theme in this misogyny…Islam?
Well, why William and Kate are waisting time meeting members of this disrespectful backwood death cult mystifies me.
And why is she wearing a head scarf. Does she realise what fate will become of her when they take over her ,Kings Country.
Slavery, probably, another one of their hobbies.
And why are they visiting a mosque on Easter weekend? If it was yesterday. This behaviour just adds fuel to conspiracy theories.
Hope William gets to choose a 6 year old bride as one of his many wifes! Inshallah! Peace Be Upon Him/They/Zhey
Caught a bit of Times Radio down at James May’s pub where they interviewed him…including about his ownership of a Tesla car…..just why would he have one when Musk is doing all this ‘doge’ stuff? Er….all that ‘doge’ stuff? You mean rooting out corruption, theft and waste on a massive scale? He really is the most awful person isn’t he?
Times hates Trump even more than the BBC does…or makes it more viscerally obvious…and so Musk must also get it just for his association with Trump. The media really is the most corrupt, broken and dangerous bunch of charlattans and guttersnipes….their hypocrisy literally knows no bounds…they who eagerly pumped out Putin’s propaganda about Trump [that dodgy dossier] whilst ironically claiming Trump was Putin’s puppet when it was they themselves doing Putin’s dirty work. They are scum.
R4’s Newsquiz…usual tosh but also Athena Kugblenu who hoped that the West would crumble…all that democracy, human rights, enlightenment, successful capitalist economies that vastly improved life for the peoples…it was all to much for her….and she wasn’t joking…much like that other black who said, in all seriousness and on a BBC programme, we should ‘kill Whitey’. Where does the BBC get them from?
You know they hate the West and White people. As someone once said…when they get the whip hand…..all those white BBC comedians won’t be laughing along then.

Spiked on Camus…
‘This is the contention that a liberal elite is deliberately ‘replacing’ white, indigenous Europeans with non-white, mostly Muslim migrants. He writes of a ‘genocide by substitution’ of white Europeans, organised by a ‘genocidal bloc’ of political parties and interests. He accuses migrants from the Middle East and North Africa of staging a ‘colonial and genocidal occupation’ of the West. ‘
https://www.spiked-online.com/2025/04/19/dont-turn-renaud-camus-into-a-martyr/
Trouble is Spiked thinks the great replacement is a dangerous lie….
‘To suggest Camus merely ‘criticises mass immigration’, or is simply ‘alarmed by immigration’, as some UK outlets have euphemistically suggested, is to severely undersell just how inflammatory, hysterical and obnoxious his arguments are.
he is best known internationally for popularising the phrase ‘the great replacement’ in hard-right and far-right circles. This is the contention that a liberal elite is deliberately ‘replacing’ white, indigenous Europeans with non-white, mostly Muslim migrants. He writes of a ‘genocide by substitution’ of white Europeans, organised by a ‘genocidal bloc’ of political parties and interests. He accuses migrants from the Middle East and North Africa of staging a ‘colonial and genocidal occupation’ of the West.
Many Britons are indeed worried about mass and illegal migration, but are surely observant enough to recognise that they are not actually victims of a ‘genocide’ or living under a kind of reverse ‘colonisation’. ‘
Really? He clearly hasn’t seen the joy that the BBC et al express when they report the new demographics that show white people being outnumbered in their own countries and not least the efforts to irradicate ‘whiteness’ and to destroy white history, culture and society.
The Great Replacement is real and very dangerous….and they really don’t want you to know it’s happening and the BBC will gaslight you about it…
‘…. the Great Replacement Theory. It’s a racist far-right conspiracy theory that falsely states there’s a secret plan to replace white people through increased immigration and other means.
Many far-right terrorists have referenced this theory as the driving force behind their murderous actions – but where does this idea originate from, and how seriously should we be taking its proliferation here in the UK? ‘

Says it all really….
‘Trans rights activists defaced a statue of Millicent Fawcett during a protest against the Supreme Court’s ruling on the definition of a woman.
The Parliament Square statue of the suffragist, a prominent campaigner for women’s rights in the 19th century, was daubed with graffiti reading “f– rights” on Saturday.’
Just remember that the BBC was fully on-board the trans bandwagon providing not just propaganda on its behalf but actually helping to lure vulnerable youngsters down that dangerous pathway…grooming them and recruiting them for the trans lobby.
It still is fully onboard of course….it won’t be long before it cranks up the full-on attacks on the law and any who want it enforced.
With Ireland now getting lots of new scientists and doctors arriving I got to wonder.
Do they have the grooming gangs in Ireland ?
If they start doing to young Irish girls what they’ve been doing to our little girls I can’t imagine the Irish being so meek as we are and just accepting everything the way it’s been covered up here.
I imagine the groomers will get a taste of Irish ‘justice’ if they try it over there.
Does it happen in other Countries such as Germany, Italy or Denmark for example. If so, how do they react?
Do they just lie down as we’ve done or do they mete out some kind of retribution.
Every so often the BBC makes you realise how unique it is.

Trans people will feel anxious over gender ruling – Swinney
If, not in a good way.
Haven`t heard much from the BBC about trans people and their `rights` in other countries especially EU ones .
Usually it`s about Britain lagging behind what they deem as progressive countries in their favourite subjects . Oh dear , are other nations more conservative than the BBC likes ?
It’s ‘Scraping the bottom of the barrel’ award time.
BBC webshite -the trans ruling continues.
On the FRONT PAGE. Unbelievable.
‘Protest rally over Supreme Court gender ruling’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/clyw1kl036do
‘More than 80 people have attended a protest against a legal ruling that biology defines whether or not a person is a woman’.
80!!!!! FFS.
Yes, when it’s to do with Trans, the Trans-obsessed BBC headline an activity on a par with the hourly rate of customers at our local chip shop at lunchtime. An event which, though of comparable public interest, and a good deal greater public enjoyment, does not make it onto the BBC webshite.
What a bunch of total cretins form the BBC editorial team.
The BBC has a reputation for huge bias when it comes to protests
eg for TR protest and CovidPolicy protests they try to make out the numbers are a tenth of what they really are ..a crowd of thousands will be referred to as “hundreds”
And they will make out that they caused large amounts of violence.
Then for counter protesters the BBC reporting is completely the other way , hiding genuine violence etc.
However on Friday local BBC was different
Big Opening item :”Protest at Scunthorpe steel plant”
I was expecting hundreds of pre-printed placards run by the unions.
However
# 1 The protest showed only 6 women
(THat seems a staged shot that removed the children that are shown on the ladies own Facebook)
#2 She does seem a genuine long term protester , as her husband works on the blast furnaces
#3 She is not a lefty, but is calling for nationalisation
#4 The item shown. First the leader speaking followed by another older woman
Eh up, you see from the screen captions they have the same surname
From Facebook it seems they are daughter and mother
The BBC chose not to mention that
So the BBC gave big coverage to a protest to a protest by ONE family and their 4 friends and children.
Perhaps reporting of other protests is suppressed under election purdah rules,
ie don’t report a protest by a union affiliated to the Labour Party .
When you add up the cost of extra green measures already started cos the government had always forced them on the plant my guess taxpayers will pay £6bn upfront
That’s CCS scheme, hydrogen fuel pipeline scheme .. , 2 new electric arc furnaces
and decommissioning of blast furnaces etc.
Plus the taxpayer will fork out for the high green energy prices and carbon taxes the government mandates.

Usual Sunday non-headlines in the awful Beeboid website about some ‘anti-Trump’ protests in the US…
I’ll save everyone here the bother of even clicking on a link, as it’s a worthless flip-flop of nutters and idiots’ opinions, scribbled by childish stammerers of Sith Floor Agenda, and you can even smell the spittle dribbling from the puckered little face…
Of course the ageing (aching) Graun has the ‘story’, so does the AP and other peculiar US stuff, but funnily enough, the normal-reading Sunday Rags like The Mail and The Express don’t seem in the least bit bothered!
I can only assume that the twonks who listen to and believe the BBC just cannot read, or understand actual facts, and just turn on their 7 ft TV screens each morning thinking they’re going to learn something!
They really are desperate in W1AA now, that must be a sign of a further few thousand non-payers reaching to cancel the direct debit to pay for things like Mad Clown Disease!
(Note to self – check The Sunday Sport website for proper news)…
Never mind, something different for Easter, from your neck of the woods..
Bbc tennis with two non tennis players, what qualifies them ? I think we all know.
This tells you all you need to know about these far left philistines:
“Rachel Reeves was accused of being ‘ashamed to embrace British history and tradition’ after the full list of artworks she has removed from No 11 was obtained by The Mail on Sunday.
Portraits of Sir Isaac Newton and former prime ministers including William Pitt and Henry Pelham have been replaced by baffling abstract paintings depicting ‘Covid anxiety’ and social distancing.
The Chancellor has removed 31 works of art either featuring men or by male artists in order to celebrate the ‘amazing women who have gone before us’.
This newspaper revealed last week that Sir Keir Starmer had removed 69 artworks from No 10 – including portraits of Elizabeth I, and William Shakespeare.
He also removed a portrait of Margaret Thatcher from his Downing Street study, claiming that he does not like ‘images and pictures of people staring down at me’.
Ms Reeves has followed suit by ‘deinstalling’ the portrait of former chancellor and prime minister Benjamin Disraeli, as well as King James I and II.
And while Sir Keir swapped his historic paintings for contemporary works including a depiction of a reggae festival and others inspired by Nigerian and Ghanaian culture, the Chancellor opted for art commemorating the Covid lockdowns.”
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14628819/31-works-axed-Rachel-Reeves-art-vandals-ashamed-British.html
“Celebrating amazing women”
I’m truly amazed
Ooooh nooo…
Not yet another railway-sidings banksey…?
These antics with removing paintings are just like a bunch or air-head teenagers, sticking up posters of every new boy band on their bedroom walls to show their mates how ‘cool’ they are!
The immaturity of the supposed government people we have to endure is a close parallel to children’s aspirations to be ‘stars’, or ‘promising footballers’ – even ‘chess players’, when it’s a racing certainty, they never, ever will be!
It really is a pathetic situation, but mind you, the loopy Biden moved a lot his stuff out including Winston Churchill’s bust, but he was probably unaware of why or who he was…
I think the “artist” forgot, or more likely never knew, that mixing red and black often results in a muddy brown.
If they wanted red, they should have left some space for the red to show…or used a different opaque medium.
I think her bush needs a trim.
How not to end up with a mess:
Awake early, Mrs S and I mused over the imminent Toady on Sunday and wondered, on Easter Day, how they would showcase the usual positive cuddly pro Muslim stories.
We didn’t need to wait long.
The very first story was how a Mosque in Birmingham is helping with litter picking during the bin strike.
The very next story was about how a theatre workshop for refugees and asylum seekers had encouraged the faith of one of their number. No prizes for working out which faith.
In other observations….
The word ‘Easter’ appeared only once, and after over half an hour and only in this context. ‘Because it’s Easter we had to talk to our contact at the Roman Catholic Church ……in Gaza!!!’
If you need more how about this? There was a feature on the 30 th anniversary of the comedy ‘Father Ted’. They interviewed a lady from the production team. She enthused about how wonderful and brilliant were the scripts. What was not mentioned was that one of those wonderful and brilliant scriptwriters was Graham Linehan. He has been ostracised from the profession and denied work because of his belief in biological sex, about which he has written and latterly spoken. The Trans lobby (so cool, so progressive, so happening)had it in for him and the media profession spinelessly fell into line. His marriage fell apart. He is relocating to America.
The BBC. Totally beyond parody.
They are self parodying. Again. And again.

The Home Office has barred Renaud Camus, a controversial French philosopher, from entering the UK.
They claim that his presence is “not conducive to the public good”.
But is that a consistent standard? Let’s look at some of the people that they’ve allowed to come to the UK
Maybe the Home Office has fewer Francophiles than those with closer ties elsewhere?
I wonder if Australian councils have discovered bus gates yet?
Didn’t know they had elephants in Aus.
Britain is bad enough, but there is a really nasty authoritarian streak in Australia. How exactly are owners meant to stop cats “roaming”? Cats go where they like.
Clicked on the front page of Al Beeb’s news page, nothing but absolutely nothing about Easter.
Whether you have any truck with Christianity or not, you would expect some reference to the UK’s largest religion and Easter day.
Guess what, Google is exactly the same.

In a real World, even the “Far Left” Labour Party should notice mental health issues and dismiss millipede before he utters one more lie…………….

A nasty b@st@rd full of spite with a dirty mouth.
I wonder if the recent ruling means that we no longer have to use the ridiculous pronouns : now a man is legally a man whatever he wears, it’s only right he is referred to as ‘he’ though I’m sure the BBC will still do it in one of their typical agenda ‘f*ck you’ tantrums with their bottom lips stuck out.
Not a woman and miles from a lady:
““Mum…! Dad’s been on the beer and in your wardrobe again”

If you want evidence of connivance by the state – there it is in plain view.
This has been going on openly for some years – and nothing is done.
Maybe that is the 60 million investment from China Rachel Reeves spoke of?
That Easter ceasefire
Ukraine have regularly targetted civilian areas from the very start of this war. The BBC were even proud of it and informed us (via their weasel words) it was a legitimate thing to do to turn the people against Putin. The words ‘war crimes’ were nowhere to be seen.
My favourite extreme-double standard of these hypocrites though is still when they printed that it was a good thing to give Ukraine cluster bombs as it would shorten the war and thus save lives.
How did that one go BBC ?.
Be careful using a Twitter inbox for your news.
https://www.forbes.com/sites/davidaxe/2022/04/28/the-russians-got-caught-faking-a-tb-2-drone-shoot-down/
Indeed – but hardly just a Twitter / X issue – Ukraine media is very tightly controlled – connived even….
I wonder if the BBC *still* have a supervisory assistance team in country?
John Sweeney doesn’t count.
“Underpants” Bryant eh?
Labour ministers are secretly plotting to defy the landmark court ruling that men who change gender are not legally women, leaked WhatsApp messages obtained by The Mail on Sunday have revealed.
The Government claimed to welcome the Supreme Court judgment – but the exchanges reveal the private fury on Sir Keir Starmer’s frontbench, with ministers planning to hold a meeting this week to ‘decide a way forwards’ and ‘organise’.
In the messages, sent on Thursday evening, Culture Minister Sir Chris Bryant joined an attack on Baroness Falkner, chairwoman of the Equality and Human Rights Commission (EHRC), who earlier that day had said that the ruling – that a woman is defined by biological sex – clearly meant trans women could not use single-sex female facilities or compete in women’s sports.
Daily Mail on it, but it’ll be lost in the noise of Meghan etcetera…
Attacks continue despite Putin’s ‘Easter truce’ pledge, Zelensky says
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c787v5gxny7o
‘In the first six hours of the “Easter truce” – as ordered by Russian President Vladimir Putin – Zelensky said there had been 387 shellings and 19 assaults by Russian forces, and drones used 290 times. There are no reports of casualties.’
Did he provide any evidence BBC ?. Because if Trump makes any bold claims, you always tell us if he didn’t.
But anyway, aside from giving the ridiculous statements from Zelensky full credibility and never questioning his absurd claims, it seems the BBC offerr this picture as evidence of the attack:
The we are told:
‘Putin ordered his forces to “stop all military activity” in Ukraine from 18:00 Moscow time (16:00 BST) on Saturday until midnight on Sunday. Kyiv said it would also adhere.’
But I found a picture from that same place in a story on Friday:
https://times.kharkiv.ua/2025/04/18/vrantsi-vorog-udariv-raketami-po-pidpriyemstvu-v-osnov-yanskomu-rajoni-harkova-foto/
So once again we are being shown fake-news pictures (ie straight lies) to back up the propaganda.
How can I take anything at all the BBC tell me seriously when I discover lies and double-standards like this ?. I can only prove these because so much information is on the internet. Just imagine the lies they tell when they are confident nobody can know the real truth ?.
It must be asked:
Why would the far left fight to keep these people in the US ? (or the UK)
I only hope that every American knows this information.

Nothing to do with anything but I’ve got a question which has been stuck in my head for a few hours so can anybody answer it.
There’s an LP cover with the Holbein anamorphic painting called The Ambassadors (below) where there is a skull visible when viewed sideways.
I think it may be a group along the lines of Fairport Convention or Sandy Denny.
I believe Greenday may have used it but it’s the earlier LP, probably from the ‘70’s that’s got me trying to remember what it is.
Anybody remember the LP?
Here’s the painting’
[url=https://postimg.cc/sBBfK8Fh]
[/url]
The original album cover for White Light/White Heat is a faint image of a tattoo of a skull.
it was Warhol’s idea to use a black-on-black picture of the tattoo
On the physical version of the album, this can only be seen when viewing the cover from a certain angle
This may or may not be the answer, but Steeleye Span’s album “All Around My Hat” featured an album cover described by Wikipedia –
“The album cover and back was designed by John O’Connor, a friend of the band’s guitarist Tim Hart, using an anamorphic projection that distorted the facial features of the band members but which looks correct when viewed from the side through special pinholes in the lyric sheet.”
NS
Thanks for the reply.
It’s not that cover.
It’s possible the Ambassadors painting was in the album cover but not the whole cover or maybe just the anamorphic skull part.
Might also be a band called Tinderbox
Zephir.
Thanks but it was neither of those.
I’m thinking folk rock types of music.
Steeleye Span, Fotheringay or similar.
I remember a mate of mine had the LP bought from the Naafi when I was in the Army in Hildesheim during the early 70’s.
I couldn’t see the skull (the anamorphic part) but I was looking L to R where I think R to L shows it better.
‘Cancer gave me the courage to admit I’m transgender’ shrieks an article on the BBC webshite. How long did they have to dig to dredge this one up? In what possible way is it of interest to anybody? The BBC, world leaders in wasting the telly tax.

Walking in the footsteps of Jeff on this beautiful sunny morning … going for a countryside walk with little dog, I returned to settle down with a coffee to watch a black and white film from 1959.
I couldn’t believe to see a trigger warning about language and attitudes of the time etc before it started. I mean, there was no effing and blinding, no blatant nudity, certainly no thuggery, violence or scenes of shooting up drugs. So God knows why a Warning was issued. The film? “I’m Alright Jack” with a stellar cast of the best of English actors – the fabulous Ian Carmichael / Peter Sellars / Terry Thomas (an absolute shower) – who could take offence at them ?.
It’s a great film of a gentler time but enjoyable showing management and the upper and working classes competing. Even the wokery lot might enjoy it.
Can you imagine what a pile of shit it would be if they remade it now?
Fcking Blair:
“Revealed: The trick Irish traveller families used at six bars in the same town… before suing them for thousands.
A group of Irish travellers went on an alternative pub crawl – going to six different bars in the same area of suburban London, arguing with bar staff in each and then suing them all for thousands of pounds as victims of racism.
The incident is the most apparently cynical yet in the growing scandal of ‘manufactured’ legal cases for prejudice which has been described as ‘the biggest threat to the hospitality industry since Covid’.
A Daily Mail investigation revealed a tidal wave of recent legal claims have been filed by groups of Travellers who allege they have been refused service by a pub, bar, or restaurant on the grounds of racism.
At least 200 pubs have now been sued by a handful of Traveller families, with one group, the Mongans, featuring 122 times.
Its most prolific claimant, Brian Mongan, was behind 44 claims while members of the McDonagh family featured 25 times, we revealed.”

Here’s a sort-of Easter reflection from the Trump White House – mercifully free of Islam unlike our own pathetic king.
Complete with funky intro song.
And this is actual, real genocide, will we see people on the streets protesting ?
“Fears remain this Easter that Christians in Nigeria are being ‘wiped out’ by Muslim extremists.
Islamist militants have reportedly killed thousands of Christians in Nigeria.
The killing and persecution of Christians by Islamist militants intent on creating a muslim caliphate in this West African country is continuing apparently unchecked despite the population being 46% Christian.
“Nigeria’s Christians are being wiped out; we need to call it what it is — genocide,” Jeff King, president of International Christian Concern (ICC), a persecution watchdog, told Fox News Digital.
“Let’s start with the horrible attacks on April 2-3, 2025, in (Nigeria’s) Plateau State’s Bokkos County. Over 60 Christians (were) slaughtered, and 383 homes torched” King said. “Families were burned alive, and kids were left homeless. It’s gut-wrenching. The worst thing is that there’s nothing truly “special” about this attack. This has gone on for 20 years and has only expanded.”
