That reporter O’Keefe had better not go into any road tunnels, or prison cells with faulty cctv surveillabce cameras, or swimming on Obama’s beach, or – how was Virginia Giuffre suicided again; were we ever told?
Basically, he’d better not leave his secret safe house for the next few years.
It’s no surprise at all that the man stabbed in the bank in Derby was called ‘Gurvinder Singh Johal’.
A family friend told the BBC that Mr Johal was “a smiler” and “a good friend”.
That tells me is that the BBC actually went out looking for people to say something good about him so they could use it to try and infer he was a good man and just another innocent victim.
However being targetted by two others in a bank tells me Mr Johal was less than white. In every sense.
No details of those arrested which of course means their names will be similar. For these cases, they often conveniently ‘forget’ right up until it comes out when they are named in publicly in court.
Maybe he was just paying his business earnings in and got robbed.
Kind of crazy to do it was actually “in in the bank” sure to have decent CCTV
Daily mail has photo of house the suspects lived at and were arrested there
“The property is owned by a married couple in their 60s who live nearby. Their son, Fez Iqbal, 31, said the property had been leased to Government contractor Serco for the last eight years or so.”
And once again the BBC print the most outrageous, irresponsible agenda-based rhetoric:
A stark accusation of ‘modern-day appeasement’
‘Though Biden’s repeated assertion that Russian tanks would be rolling through central Europe if America and its allies didn’t support Ukraine is impossible to prove, he views the threat posed by Putin as serious and worthy of the comparison.’
The key here is that the BBC KNOW it is complete nonsense because they have deliberately inserted one of their ‘lying through their teeth’ qualifiers. In this case it’s ‘impossible to prove’.
‘worthy of the comparison’ to justify a complete lie ?. What kind of reporting is this ?. Are they really his words BBC or did you put them in yourself ?.
I’ve read many accounts of this war from people who clearly know what they are talking about and not a single one thinks Russia will just continue and attack NATO in Europe. It’s absolutely ridiculous.
The real danger is that the EU build up their army and rhewtoric like the BBC are spouting against Russia to such a degree that Russia think the EU (with us tagging along) are going to attack them. They will not hesitate to strike first if they are sure war is coming.
So once again the BBC are scaremongering that Putin will invade Europe if the war in Ukraine is allowed to end. It’s absolute nonsense. There is only one possible outcome if the it carries on like this : a grinding war of attrition where Russia keep taking land until the Ukranian army collapses. Which is when the EU use the same argument as the BBC use here to send in troops. Then we are at WW3. And how many people think Ukraine is worth that ?.
It’s clear the real objective is to destroy Russias capability to wage war using Ukrainian lives to do it and remove them as any kind of threat for the next decade. They are making exactly the same mistake as Hitler did.
I look forward to the BBC interview ‘for balance’ with Trump where they allow him to spew whatever hate and rhetoric he wants to tell us about Biden without interruption. Then run multiple front page headlines promoting what he said.
It’s extremely one-sided propaganda and fails to mention so many relevant facts that disprove and counter just about everything Biden said…also note that the BBC reports kept telling us Biden refused to mention Trump’s name…oh but hang on…apparently he didn’t mention Harris’ name at all even when talking about his stepping down….as the Telegraph noted…
‘Does Joe Biden blame his vice-president for losing the 2024 election to Donald Trump? He certainly doesn’t take any responsibility himself. And when it comes to Kamala Harris, he can’t even bring himself to say her name.’
BBC not so keen to point that out for some reason.
After PMQs the BBC’s finest told us in no uncertain terms that gas prices were the cause of the huge UK energy costs as compared to other countries, pushing the government lie…and that this was merely a ‘culture war’ rather than an important and honest critique of the Mad Monk’s nut zero diktats….and you might note the less than open reporting about job losses due to massive green costs in this report…you’d never know from the title what it was really about….
‘The choppy waters between North Sea oil and green energy revolution’
You have to wonder how many emails there are flying between the BBC and the Mad Monk’s office discussing the best way to spin these lies to the public….we know it happens as they try to nudge us into believing their guff.
As Andrew Neil says….
‘Those interviewing E Miliband need to better briefed so they can call him out when he spouts nonsense.
He says fossil fuels are up 60% on the year. In fact oil and gas prices have been trending down and shown marked falls these past 12 months.
He says we are in the grip of petro-state dictators. We get most of our gas from Norway and the USA.
On the other hand he’s been in China pleading with them to take stakes in our solar and wind power + other green infrastructure. Not a petro-sate dictatorship. Just a dictatorship.’
Pug, the last paragraph in that Viking piece by Mister Fraser
It is also reviewing its commitment to the Viking carbon capture and storage scheme being planned for Humberside, blaming “repeated delays” by the UK government.
Participation was a price of doing business – when you’ve no business = no participation.
Miliband is a complete moron and his department is packed with hand picked morons.

Souvenir edition – trashing the multilateral system
This morning’s title is borrowed from the Daily Star (the souvenir edition bit), one of three flag-waving popular tabloids that go big on VE Day and catch the attention of the sorority that is BBC news staff for their top three picks in their online print press line-up.
It would be rude to quote Samuel Johnson “Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel” and – to be precise – only two of the three tabloids, Daily Express and Daily Star, actually brandish a Union Flag on their nostalgia provoking covers. The Daily Mirror instead commemorates VE Day with a self-referential nod to vintage Mirror cartoonist: Philip Zec’s celebrated plea for May 8, 1945 – a wounded allied soldier amid the ruins of Europe handing us the peace laurel wreath: “Here you are! Don’t lose it again!”
Beneath the thin veneer of these souvenirs there’s no such sentimental plea for peace redolent of WW2 in the editorial tone of the Guardian top headline – rather a statement of injury and righteous indignation on behalf of an islamic nation: Pakistan vows to strike back after Indian missile attacks kill dozens
This is of course a classic formulation of that ‘putting the cart before the horse’ genre – of the type: Israeli retaliation kills dozens, in response to deadly terror attack
Yesterday Reuters did a classic three-parter reading of the news from back to front: Pakistan vows retaliation after Indian strike over tourist deaths (By Asif Shahzad and Shivam Patel)
Meanwhile BBC coverage – as is the case with their Middle East reporting – appears almost designed to inflame the islamic ummah…
Pakistan says 31 people have been killed and 57 injured by air strikes in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir… Masood Azhar, chief of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), said his older sister and her husband, his nephew and his nephew’s wife, his niece and five children from his family were killed in a strike on a mosque in Bahawalpur, Pakistan… Islamabad called the strikes a “heinous act of aggression”. (BBC)
Mind you: JeM said it carried out a bomb attack in February 2019 that killed 40 paramilitary police in Indian-administered Kashmir. (BBC)
The liberal media message would seem to be that in the face of islamic terrorism, wherever in the world it is encountered, we ought always to turn the other cheek, bear no malice, make allowance, bury the hatchet, not look back in anger, kiss and make up, laugh it off, let bygones be bygones…
Next you’ll read how Britain is ultimately responsible for having partitioned India.
Meanwhile the globalist Financial Times finds a way to blame Donald Trump: After Trump’s trashing of the multilateral system, the India-Pakistan stand-off is an early test of whether the big powers can still manage to head off a calaminity (FT View)
Iranian ‘terror plot’ targeted Israeli embassy in London (Times) – This is a rather unusual development. State-sponsored terror rarely goes for a rival’s embassy given the number of far softer targets available. I can only think of one instance that was the Sadam Hussein-backed arab terror group’s attack on the London Iran embassy, way back in 1979. I hope this isn’t some form of false flag op on the path to goading Britain into joining an all out attack on Tehran. Just saying, that’s all.
The BBC and India Vs Pakistan. I don’t care a monkey’s about this war ( apart from the fact even more of them might come here and “claim asylum” ) but it was interesting to laugh at the BBC radio 4 news at one yesterday in the car. BBC supporting thier favorite religion as usual.
Question to Pakistani interviewee ( paraphrased ) ” please tell us how terrible it was when the Indians attacked you” ( repeated several times ). Question to Indian interviewee ” how can you justify attacking Pakistan when they are innocent” ( repeated several times ) .
By the time night fell, fights were breaking out. A young Hindu man driving a car was attacked, his head slashed, after a false rumour spread that he had tried to run people over. The chaos spilled over into local businesses. I spoke to someone who was having dinner at about 9pm in a dosa restaurant on Belgrave Road when a young man ran inside, barefoot, looking for shelter after he’d been attacked; a couple of other men who were bleeding tried to get in, too. Terrified, the restaurant owners brought down the shutters and turned off the lights.
The EU’s motto, “United in Diversity,” reflects the belief that the diverse cultures, traditions, and languages of Europe are a source of strength and unity. This phrase signifies the EU’s commitment to both peace and prosperity while celebrating the richness of the continent’s diversity. The EU actively promotes diversity and inclusion through initiatives like the EU Platform of Diversity Charters and by combating discrimination in all its forms.
Lubna, a Muslim YouTuber, had the temerity to produce videos commenting on the Pakistani community and Islam in general, in the UK and elsewhere. Her attitude was quite moderate, her intention more to heal differences while exposing what she called “a few bad apples” among her own people.
Well, guess what? The Religionists of Peace threatened her life and she’s been forced to take down most of her content and cease her current mode of output – though it sounds like she intends to continue in a different format.
It might be worth remembeing that the Prophet of Peace hmself theatened his critics with violence and death. Apart from slaughtering whole communities (in one instance Jews), he also had poets murdered for the crime of making fun of him and his religion of hate in their poems.
And it’s been blood and slaughter down the centuries ever since, at all times and in all places.
But hey, at least Starmer and the BBC love them.
Lubna your very brave trying to be a moderate Muslim in the
UK. The UK is a very dangerous place for moderate Muslims.
Jews as a last resort can go to Israel. You could go to the Emirates.
But whilst high profile institutions in the UK such as the BBC
and even our government cower to fundamentalist Islam
or even support it. I am afraid the days of moderate Muslims
in the UK are numbered,
PS. If anyone would like to show support for brave Lubna, one way is to view the vid on YouTube (just click the YouTube logo) and “Like” her vid there, or leave a comment. Encouragingly, she’s receiving huge numbers of likes and supportive comments.
People are waking up to what’s going on in our country.
Except at the BBC, of course.
… find this USA Army Muslim Chaplin,Khallid Shabazz on youtube …
“The Koran says don’t let the hatred of a people move you to deal with people unjustly. The Prophet Mohammed beheaded people who were extremely unjust to him. {youtube mar2015}”
– Army Lt. Col. Khallid Shabazz, March 2015
Two comments on the above vid.
1) Muslim apologists routinely lie about the ‘nice’ side of their religion and their false prophet, so one would have to check all his assertions. (It used to be much worse but in recent times anyone can fact-check their lies on the internet. See David Wood on that subject.)
2) It must always be remembered that there were, broadly speaking, 2 phases in Islam in the time of Mo.
First, the relatively peaceful phase in Mecca, when followers were few and Islam was weak.
Then, the Medina phase when Mo grew in power, in intransigence and in violence.
Furthermore, his later, violent, exhortations to subjugate the world by the sword override his earlier peaceful pronouncements by the principle of abrogation.
The Prophet Muhammad kept female captives, also referred to as slave girls or concubines, in his household during the time of the Prophet’s life, and it was not considered marriage in the same way as marriage to a free woman. These captive women were typically acquired through war or offered as gifts. While some interpretations consider this a form of concubinage, others argue that it was a way of integrating captives into the Muslim community and providing them with a level of care and protection.
The inquiry team found examples of “children who had been doused in petrol and threatened with being set alight, threatened with guns, made to witness brutally violent rapes and threatened they would be next if they told anyone”.
providing them with a level of care and protection.
“children who had been doused in petrol and threatened with being set alight,

They’ve had enough, Part 2.
(scratching head) So BBC has taken the Side of Pakistan. Colour me surprised. Not.
That reporter O’Keefe had better not go into any road tunnels, or prison cells with faulty cctv surveillabce cameras, or swimming on Obama’s beach, or – how was Virginia Giuffre suicided again; were we ever told?
Basically, he’d better not leave his secret safe house for the next few years.
It’s no surprise at all that the man stabbed in the bank in Derby was called ‘Gurvinder Singh Johal’.
A family friend told the BBC that Mr Johal was “a smiler” and “a good friend”.
That tells me is that the BBC actually went out looking for people to say something good about him so they could use it to try and infer he was a good man and just another innocent victim.

Five takeaways from Biden’s BBC interview
https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c39j91ljmyeo
And once again the BBC print the most outrageous, irresponsible agenda-based rhetoric:
A stark accusation of ‘modern-day appeasement’
‘Though Biden’s repeated assertion that Russian tanks would be rolling through central Europe if America and its allies didn’t support Ukraine is impossible to prove, he views the threat posed by Putin as serious and worthy of the comparison.’
The key here is that the BBC KNOW it is complete nonsense because they have deliberately inserted one of their ‘lying through their teeth’ qualifiers. In this case it’s ‘impossible to prove’.
‘worthy of the comparison’ to justify a complete lie ?. What kind of reporting is this ?. Are they really his words BBC or did you put them in yourself ?.
I’ve read many accounts of this war from people who clearly know what they are talking about and not a single one thinks Russia will just continue and attack NATO in Europe. It’s absolutely ridiculous.
The real danger is that the EU build up their army and rhewtoric like the BBC are spouting against Russia to such a degree that Russia think the EU (with us tagging along) are going to attack them. They will not hesitate to strike first if they are sure war is coming.

Miliband is a complete moron and his department is packed with hand picked morons.
A weak manager always picks people who are even worse than himself otherwise they will show him up and might even take his job away from him.
I’ve seen it a hundred times when I worked for BAE SYSTEMS. If it starts at the top, it’s almost impossible to rectify.
I am absolutely certain it is much, much worse in the BBC where they don’t actually have to ‘deliver’ anything at all.
The Daily Mail is heading resolutely into DAGAF territory across the editorial output.
Had to look that one up, Tomo!
Blimey, I must be getting old – I think I gave up after learning SNAFU and FUBAR…

By the time night fell, fights were breaking out. A young Hindu man driving a car was attacked, his head slashed, after a false rumour spread that he had tried to run people over. The chaos spilled over into local businesses. I spoke to someone who was having dinner at about 9pm in a dosa restaurant on Belgrave Road when a young man ran inside, barefoot, looking for shelter after he’d been attacked; a couple of other men who were bleeding tried to get in, too. Terrified, the restaurant owners brought down the shutters and turned off the lights.
The EU’s motto, “United in Diversity,” reflects the belief that the diverse cultures, traditions, and languages of Europe are a source of strength and unity. This phrase signifies the EU’s commitment to both peace and prosperity while celebrating the richness of the continent’s diversity. The EU actively promotes diversity and inclusion through initiatives like the EU Platform of Diversity Charters and by combating discrimination in all its forms.

Lubna, a Muslim YouTuber, had the temerity to produce videos commenting on the Pakistani community and Islam in general, in the UK and elsewhere. Her attitude was quite moderate, her intention more to heal differences while exposing what she called “a few bad apples” among her own people.
Well, guess what? The Religionists of Peace threatened her life and she’s been forced to take down most of her content and cease her current mode of output – though it sounds like she intends to continue in a different format.
It might be worth remembeing that the Prophet of Peace hmself theatened his critics with violence and death. Apart from slaughtering whole communities (in one instance Jews), he also had poets murdered for the crime of making fun of him and his religion of hate in their poems.
And it’s been blood and slaughter down the centuries ever since, at all times and in all places.
But hey, at least Starmer and the BBC love them.
Lubna your very brave trying to be a moderate Muslim in the
UK. The UK is a very dangerous place for moderate Muslims.
Jews as a last resort can go to Israel. You could go to the Emirates.
But whilst high profile institutions in the UK such as the BBC
and even our government cower to fundamentalist Islam
or even support it. I am afraid the days of moderate Muslims
in the UK are numbered,
PS. If anyone would like to show support for brave Lubna, one way is to view the vid on YouTube (just click the YouTube logo) and “Like” her vid there, or leave a comment. Encouragingly, she’s receiving huge numbers of likes and supportive comments.
People are waking up to what’s going on in our country.
Except at the BBC, of course.
… find this USA Army Muslim Chaplin,Khallid Shabazz on youtube …
“The Koran says don’t let the hatred of a people move you to deal with people unjustly. The Prophet Mohammed beheaded people who were extremely unjust to him. {youtube mar2015}”

Two comments on the above vid.
1) Muslim apologists routinely lie about the ‘nice’ side of their religion and their false prophet, so one would have to check all his assertions. (It used to be much worse but in recent times anyone can fact-check their lies on the internet. See David Wood on that subject.)
2) It must always be remembered that there were, broadly speaking, 2 phases in Islam in the time of Mo.
First, the relatively peaceful phase in Mecca, when followers were few and Islam was weak.
Then, the Medina phase when Mo grew in power, in intransigence and in violence.
Furthermore, his later, violent, exhortations to subjugate the world by the sword override his earlier peaceful pronouncements by the principle of abrogation.
Phase 3) Use tolerance to create more intolerance.

Our country has paid a high price these past 60 years, just so we can taste a plate of Chicken Tikka and a couple of onion bhajis.
Muslim parents will kill their own children if their opinion the honour of their family is at risk. Please don’t think us non Muslims have any chance.
The Prophet Muhammad kept female captives, also referred to as slave girls or concubines, in his household during the time of the Prophet’s life, and it was not considered marriage in the same way as marriage to a free woman. These captive women were typically acquired through war or offered as gifts. While some interpretations consider this a form of concubinage, others argue that it was a way of integrating captives into the Muslim community and providing them with a level of care and protection.

Call a spade a spade. They were sex slaves, ‘enjoyed’ by Mo and his army of perverts. Then as now.
