Start the Week 7th July 2025

It’s the 20th anniversary of organised multiple terrorist attacks on people in London . But will the BBC explain who did it and why ? Will there be a Muslim to come forward and explain which bit the their Koran justified slaughtering 52 people and injuring 800 as well as those still living with that day. RIP

    I start driving back @ 13.45 , put the wireless on ( or infotainment system) and hear some Brexit analysis on Radio 4 . It’s a while ago now so some paraphrasing is needed .

    First off is “ all logistics companies were against Brexit .

    Note the word logistics – not transport companies or hauliers .
    The old word use to be freight forwarders or agents .
    These were/ are the middlemen . These did their job , and earned well . The actual hauliers earned , well not so much .
    And these freight forwarders – logistics- didn’t care who they used — British or foreign hauliers, so long as they earned . And naturally they would use the cheapest haulier . And if the cheapest haulier came from a country who didn’t impose huge costs and taxes like Britain does , whose hauliers could use our roads for free ( you pay for his track costs ) while we pay to use theirs, then the business , drivers , other jobs and taxes go to that more enlightened government .

    Well I listened to the rest of the BBC half truths and realise again why it’s impossible to argue with a young committed EU remainer .It’s more four legs good two legs bad mantra than than the truth, the WHOLE truth and and nothing but the truth , an anathema to the BBC .

    Fedup2,

    Thank you once again for maintaining this site. It’s a constant reminder that we don’t hate the BBC as much as they deserve.

    On the court reports of grooming rapists we are often shown the whole gallery of the mug shots, the contents of which surprise no one.

    I’ve often wondered if one of our more technically inclined contributors would consider trying to get the same kind of picture of all the young lady “journalists” who provide so much fodder to this site. I know I’ve seen dozens of these pictures and I don’t believe I have ever seen any of them more than once. It’s probably too much to hope that the beeb has fired each one after their pitiful contributions so I assume that they are all still employed, if not gainfully, by the corporation.

    I think getting all of their lot together in one picture would be a great illustration of where all the license fees are wasted.

    Thanks to all the contributors who have provided me with so much information and entertainment these past several years.

    A video game on ‘gold diggers’ is fuelling a sexism debate in China
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0rvzw1jk2do

    ‘”He’s more obedient than a dog… If only more of these dumb ones come along,” boasts a woman in a new video game that has fuelled a debate on sexism in China.’

    Wow I thought : we finally get an article which reports on sexism against men. This being the BBC, I was highly suspicious.

    And of course it wasn’t. As usual they have twisted it for their own agenda. Here’s what the BBC choose to write:

    ‘Critics like her say the very term “gold digger” reeks of misogyny.’

    “It’s a label that’s used, all too often, on women,” Ms Xu says. “Sexist jokes and derogatory terms like these have found their way into our everyday language.”
    ‘”If you have a rich boyfriend, you are called a gold digger. If you try to make yourself look pretty, you are called a gold digger… Sometimes the label is used on you merely for accepting a drink from someone,” she adds.’

    When in the real world, that is EXACTLY what many of them are. I’ve seen it myself many times.

    In this bizzare world of BBC left-wing activists, men are always wrong, whites are always the racists and the Right are always the bigots.

    I sometimes wonder if they truly believe it because of the group-think bubble they have created or it’s much simpler than that : they are driven by hatred and jealousy. Two of the Left’s most prominent characteristics.

    I suspect the stupid ones (eg the BBC clones) fall into the first group, but the real activists (eg the BBC group who instruct the clones what to write) are definitely in the second.

    ‘Dr Ruth Shady, the archaeologist who led the recent research into Peñico and the excavation of Caral in the 1990s, said that the discovery was important for understanding what became of the Caral civilisation after it was decimated by climate change.

    Peñico is situated close to where Caral, recognised as the oldest known civilisation in the Americas, was established 5,000 years ago at around 3,000 BC in the Supe valley of Peru. ‘

    I imagine the BBC will soon be blaming climate change for floods in Texas….never mind they have been happening for ever.

    Today…

    ‘The National Weather Service (NWS) said the area could see 2 to 5in (5cm to 12cm) of rain on Saturday.

    Up to 10in of rain was possible in some areas badly affected by Friday’s deluge.’

    But in 1936 they had 20 inches of rain end of June and 30 inches over 6 days in September….in 1921 they had 40 inches…and that was merely the fourth highest rainfall total recorded.

    But climate change, which the BBC tells us really kicked in 50 years ago, will be the cause of the recent floods in Texas…according to the BBC quoting scientists who ‘don’t have proof but we can be sure climate change has made things worse.’

    ‘Unusual floods occurred in Texas in 1936 in the Trinity, Brazos,
    Colorado, and Guadalupe River Basins. Heavy rainfall over a small area in
    south-central Texas June 28 to July 4 produced floods on the lower Guada-
    lupe River and several tributaries that were greater than had ever been
    known. Rains from September 14 to 30 produced floods in the Trinity, Bra-
    zos, and Colorado River Basins that exceeded all previous records on many
    streams, and floods in the Red, Guadalupe, and Nueces River Basins that
    were moderately high.’

    ‘In early September 1921, the remnants of a category 1 hurricane brought damaging floods to areas of Mexico and the U.S. state of Texas, particularly in the San Antonio region.
    Precipitation peaked over Central Texas, where the highest rainfall amount measured was 40 in (1,016 mm) near Thrall, Texas; this was the fourth-highest tropical cyclone-related rainfall total in Texas since record keeping began. ‘

      Yes, it might appear there’s more flooding these days, however:

      Flood events in the past would have gone unnoticed, there was no internet, 24 hour news and in many cases would have been treated as unremarkable.

      Population densities have increased and there is more development in areas prone to flooding, thus more impact.

      Properties in the past were more flood resilient ie more basic with fewer vulnerable materials and possessions. Once floods receded people would have swept out the mud and carried on with their lives.

      Electricity, modern technology and large scale vehicle usage means greater impact.

      South Korea had no industrial base – then made it so!

      “South Korea’s industrial base was built through a combination of strategic government planning, strong export-oriented policies, and a focus on specific industries like shipbuilding and electronics. The government played a crucial role in directing investments, fostering key industries, and providing incentives for growth. This, combined with a dedicated and skilled workforce, allowed South Korea to rapidly transform from a largely agrarian economy to a global industrial power. “

    Is the UK really any safer 20 years on from 7/7?
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c14e77je72mo

    Another simply astonishing article from the BBC. They simply cannot report on anything at all to do with Islamic terrorists without distorting the entire narrative for their own anti-Right political agenda.

    The vast majority of the terrorism this report is talking about is by Muslims. Yet the word ‘Muslim’ and ‘Islamic’ do not appear once in the main content. Here’s how they describe the Westminster Bridge horriffic murders:
    ‘The first of a number of attacks in 2017 was committed by a killer who drove into pedestrians on Westminster Bridge before stabbing to death a police officer at the gates of Parliament. ‘

    Then all these attacks by Muslimns are generalised until we get:
    ‘The rapidity of these attacks – and the regularity of them, disrupted or acted out, had an extraordinary consequence that further complicated the picture. Far-right extremists watched and learned and, seeking a form of “revenge”‘

    And the next example is:
    ‘In 2015, a 25-year-old member of National Action, a now banned extreme right-wing group, carried out a racist attack on a Sikh-heritage dentist in a supermarket. ‘
    Massive context missing here : it was in repsonse to the beheading of Lee Rigby by Muslims and he didn’t even kill him. Contrast that with all the actual savage murders by Muslims and it’s inclusion in this list is ridiculous.
    Then that example is quickly followed by the Jo Cox murder.

    They describe terrorist acts like the Manchester Arena bombing with no reference whatsoever to the people who did it. The only way we can get a clue is by their names. The ONLY group specifically identified are the far-right !. Yet this extremely relevant fact from our OWN GOVERNMENT is not included anywhere in this farcical article:
    ‘By far the biggest terrorist threat comes from Islamist terrorism. It accounts for 67% of attacks since 2018, and about three quarters of MI5’s caseload.’

    It’s by far the most extreme cover up of Muslim terrorists I have ever seen, even by the BBC’s own standards. According to this report, only the far-right are terrorists.

    The lies by omission are off the scale now. The BBC are in full-on activist mode these days and they know they can get away with anything they want to now fuhrer Starmer is in charge.

    Published
    6 July 2025
    A man has been charged with two counts of attempted kidnap after police were called to a splash pad in a popular park.

    Officers were called to the free attraction at popular Victoria Park in Canton, Cardiff, at about 12:00 BST on Thursday after a number of reports raising concerns about a man’s behaviour in the area.

    Some were concerned the man had been taking photographs or recording children at the park, but officers found he was not in possession of such devices after searching him.

    South Wales Police said Moynul Janu, 34, of no fixed abode, had also been charged with two public order offences and remanded in custody.

    Grade II listed Victoria Park, in the west of the city, was opened in 1897 and one of the first parks in the UK to receive a restoration grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund in 1995.

    The splash pad, which is free and popular with families, typically opens in late May or early June for the remainder of the summer months.

    One of those vintage Today programmes – the Hamas Propagandist Caroline Hawley doing an emotional Hamas supporting piece full of emotion… she didn’t mention and suffering caused by her Islamic terrorist group – eg hostages …
    A piece on the Marxists bringing in another ‘employment right ‘ . This time our Justin has a chat ( not an interview ) with some far left ( so many) woman who is bringing in ‘bereavement leave ‘ for everyone … you’ll get 2 weeks when your budgie dies …
    There was no mention of the effect on the nasty employer – of other workers having to take up the cost – or the cost itself . There was no contrary view At All …

    Just another reason for setting up / running a business …

    The public sector – of course – will love it – those affected by the further demise of the public sector doesn’t matter . But on the upside since so many are still ‘working from home ‘ ( nice ) will anyone notice ?

    Lastly the 7/7 ‘incidents ‘ …..BBC policy is clearly not to mention Islam or Muslim or holy war or even terrorism . So I’ve started to play a sick game where you leave out the key word in a story – or the cause of an ‘event ‘.

    For instance – the day before those mass murdering Islamic terrorist Attacks the UK celebrated being awarded a ‘sporting event ‘ – don’t call it ‘olympics ‘ …

    Apparently after these Islamic terrorist attacks we all ‘came together ‘ and it’s much safer now …. Yeah Right …

    Do they think we have a five-minute memory capacity – like some proverbial goldfish?

    Bereavement leave to be extended to miscarriages before 24 weeks. The government is set to amend the Employment Rights Bill to give parents the legal right to take time off work to grieve if they experience pregnancy loss at any stage. Parents who experience a miscarriage before 24 weeks of pregnancy will be entitled to bereavement leave under a planned law change. (BBC, 7th July)

    What was the title of that dystopian zombie movie – they just released another re-make… 24 weeks something…? Hmmm… 24 weeks, that’s almost jogged my memory about something. Was it 20-something Days Later…? These days, like the average Jane & Joe out there, I can’t seem to remember stuff that happened even 20-odd days ago. But 24 weeks is ringing a bell somehow. And that ‘new’ film was named something similar to that, near as damn it…

    MPs vote to decriminalise abortion for women in England and Wales. Women who terminate their pregnancy outside the rules, for example after 24 weeks, will no longer be at risk of being investigated by police. (BBC, 17th June)

    Nope, I’ve got it now… 28 Days Later then there was 28 Weeks Later, and now there’s 28 Years Later – some suggest the culture is stuck in doom loop and we just keep recycling old stuff over and over.

    This highly contagious disease turns its victims into rage-filled, zombie-like individuals, leading to the collapse of society. The series follows the struggles of survivors as they navigate this dangerous new world, battling both the infected and the challenges of rebuilding civilization – nope, I’m not referring to liberalism and the damage it has done to British culture, that’s just AI summarising the themes in this zombie movie series.

    Meanwhile, speaking of post-apocalyptic hell-scapes, the Guardian brings us news of those bedraggled starving genocide survivors of Gaza: In the half-ruined town, as across the entire territory, few took their eyes off their phones… [or] a TV… – this in anticipation of news of a Donald Trump-brokered ceasefire – perhaps they’re watching BBC iPlayer (without a licence) – where no doubt they’ll be told The Donald never did anything right.

    Only cautious optimism is being expressed by weary Palestinians living in dire conditions… “When it comes to life’s necessities, we have zero.” The UN says that with no fuel having entered in over four months, stockpiles are now virtually gone, threatening vital medical care, water supplies and telecommunications. (Yolande Knell, Middle East correspondent, BBC) – but, but, ‘few took their eyes off their phones…’ ?

    Speaking of failing infrastructure – sometimes these segueways write themselves…

    UK was 10 years from turning off the taps: Labour vows to avert new water crisis (i paper) – what is it about this Labour cabinet and their constant talk of 10-year plans for this, that, and the other?

    We’ve all heard those old adages about selling snow to the Eskimos and sand to the Arabs – but as I look out of my window on 7th July and see grey rain clouds – now the English have a dearth of water, really? Some people must have been drinking an awful lot of it.

        Not a joke…..the left are doing just that….the great replacement…get rid of the ungrateful whiteys and import a load of very grateful new people/voters…which conveniently also ties in with the narrative of hating Britain, its history and its people and culture that the marxists and islamists want to propagate and use to destroy Britain and the West.

        From the Telegraph…

        ‘Britain will be unrecognisable by the end of this century. Unless things change, and change fast, the population of the UK will be permanently transformed by mass immigration. White Britons will become a minority by the year 2063. The foreign-born and their immediate descendants will become a majority by 2079. And nearly one in four people in the UK will be following Islam by the year 2100; this figure would rise to around one in three among under-40s.
        Why does this matter, some will ask? Who cares if the ethnic make-up of the country is undergoing such an extraordinary transformation? It matters, I think, for three reasons.

        For a start, this issue goes to the heart of our democracy: we didn’t vote for this. We have a political system and a ruling class that is no longer responsive to an electorate that has, for much of the last thirty years, been consistent in asking for less immigration and slower demographic change.

        Mass immigration also matters, secondly, for a more profound reason: it changes how we talk and think about things like Britishness and Englishness. With the foreign-born and their descendants now forecast to become a majority on these islands by the year 2079, the country will now be reshaped around a population that has a much “thinner” sense of national identity.

        With no real sense of ancestry, most people will be unable to trace their lineage on these islands back more than one generation or two; they will have no deep roots in our national culture, collective memory, shared history, identity, and way of life.
        What will this do to the social contract and the unity of the nation-state? How, really, can you unify a people who will have no real sense of a shared history or cultural inheritance?
        Which brings me to the most obvious reason why I think all this matters: culture.

        These challenges will be compounded by the fact that the foreign-born now often hail not from Europe but radically different, if not incompatible cultures, from Pakistan and Afghanistan to Iraq.

        The more babies who are born in the UK to mothers and fathers from such backgrounds, the more likely it is that the norms, traditions, religions, and ways of life from these nations will be transplanted to England and Wales.

        This cultural transformation is already underway. Look, for example, at the areas that are already leading these changes: do we want the United Kingdom to look like Luton, Slough, or Watford? Do these seem like dynamic, prosperous, well-integrated and united places to you?

        The outlook of immigrants, in other words, is shaped by where they are from and, in turn, shapes the country that they settle in. Immigrants are not just blank slates. They bring their values with them, and these can be resistant to change.

        What, then, happens to the UK if more and more people are born to families that are not shaped by the remarkable cultural inheritance of these islands but are instead shaped by the cultures of Pakistan, Nigeria, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Albania, or Iraq? These are nations that have deep ethnic and religious divisions, low trust in institutions, and often fundamentally different ideas about justice and religion.

        As I say, these are critical questions; yet very few people in the corridors of power appear willing to explore them. As things stand, many of our leaders would rather cross their fingers and hope that this radical experiment with mass uncontrolled immigration works out.’

        “This is Liz Kenworthy.

        She is a former police officer for the Met.

        20 years ago, she was on the tube train the cowardly 7/7 Islamist bombers targeted in London.

        She was off-duty. But after the explosion tore through the carriages ahead, she pushed forward to where the bomb detonated.

        What she saw was utter carnage—blown off limbs, cries for help, smoke, blood, metal everywhere.

        She next grabbed shirts, belts, anything she could, to make tourniquets to stem the victims’ bleeding.

        Without her help, some would have no doubt lost their lives, as 52 people did.

        One of those she helped was Martine Wright, who lost both legs in the blast and later became a sitting volleyball player for Great Britain and campaigner for fair compensation for 7/7 victims—after Blair’s government offered the families of those murdered a measly £8,000.

        Unlike some, Liz never softened her view of the terrorists responsible.

        In a recent interview, she said:

        “They’re beneath contempt. They’re evil people. I don’t care what their cause is.

        They’ve wasted their own lives. They’ve caused a lot of hurt and misery, and what have they achieved? Absolutely nothing.

        You want to blow yourself up. You really want to end up as a carcass in the bottom of a train? You’re not a hero.

        You’re just a dead lump of meat with me stepping on you. Me in my shoes, stepping on you. That’s how I feel about that.”

        Hard to find any other words than true hero.”

      The problem is that people believe Bowen and his lot. Friends tell me that they no longer support Israel because of such stories on the BBC. I fear what they think of not just Israelis but all Jews when they believe stories like this.

      Why do they think decent westernised young men and women are shooting children in the head? The answer of course is that they don’t. Accuse your enemies of what you do yourselves.

    It’s remarkable that in a report concerning 7/7 and radicalisation there is only one brief mention of ‘Islam’ and that’s buried a long way down the page….despite 75% of the threats being Islamic…and the Far-Right threats being a consequence, a backlash to, of that Islamic threat…no Islamic threat no Far-Right threat….so really 100% of the threat is Islam.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c14e77je72mo

    The BBC et al are pushing the idea, as usual, that it is the omnipresent, omnipotent and ominous social media that is the cause….

    ‘The case of the Southport murderer Axel Rudakubana – who had been repeatedly flagged to Prevent – is at the heart of a debate about internet-fuelled violence.’

    Charleyboy tells us ti was one of those senseless tragedies…

    ‘He condemned the “senseless acts of evil” that saw bombs detonated on the capital’s public transport system, killing 52 people and injuring more than 700.’

    Hmmmm…no…Islam is at the heart of the debate…how the children are raised, their approach to the world and non-Muslims, Mosques, Muslim schools and support centres and what’s said around the dinner table about ‘Whitey’. There is no respect for Whitey nor the West.
    This was no ‘senseless act of evil’…they had a rationale and motivation based upon their religious beliefs…time this was recognised….Blair is even now telling us that the threat will exist as long as the ideology exists…what ideology exactly? Please expand….Islamism or Islam? What’s the difference? There is none is there?

    And Rudakubana? Not a Muslim at the time so was it social media that drove him to his killing spree…or was it the likes of the BBC, schools, institutions and blacktivists who fed him a toxic narrative about black people being eternal victims of Whitey? Resist and rebel says the BBC….’whiteness’ must be eliminated….’kill whitey’.

    Some irony that the BBC highlight a victim of the 7/7 attack with this headline…

    ‘I looked into the eyes of a man who blew himself up on the Tube. I still see him everywhere’

    About time they concentrated on the victims because in the immediate aftermath of the attacks the BBC were more concerned about the bombers asking ‘What drove these young British men to do this?’ The BBC deciding that the blame for the attacks actually lay with British society and the way we treat Muslims….this was backed up when, on the first anniversary of the attack at a memorial service at Kings Cross, the BBC recruited a Muslim man to walk through the crowds wearing a black backpack….thus scaring the hell out of people…buuut….that was their prejudice and racism….this is what Muslims have to suffer…Britain is a terrible place for Muslims…says the BBC.
    Some might think that BBC stunt was incredibley crass if not cruel and wicked especially on the anniversary as the remembrance was about to happen. The BBC has its priorities though…..If it could have blamed the young girls murdered by Rudakubana I’m sure they would have been tempted….Rudakubana being the true victim.

    With the 7/7 atrocities back in the news today I tried to think of ANY Far Right bombings we’ve had and couldn’t.
    In fact, I can’t recall any Far Right terrorism at all.

    They try to blame the Jo Cox killing on the Far Right yet if I remember it correctly it really was a case of some mental bloke and nothing to do with the Far Right no matter how much they tried to label him Far Right.

    Can any of you think of any Far Right bombings, beheadings, grooming gangs, stabbing rampages, killing sprees and the like which we’ve become all to used to now and all by the same lot, either in groups (packs of lone wolves) or single fanatics like Welsh choirboys or ‘Yorkshire’ ‘men’.
    It’s always only one group yet the bbbc (and most of the msm) cannot bring themselves to mention them.

    Is a typical Far Right terrorism offence dropping a smoky bacon crisp packet within a mile of certain people or is it a hurty tweet and are these counted the same as killing and injuring hundreds of innocent people in bombings where 1 bombing is equivalent to 1 hurty tweet.

    I honestly can’t think of any threat by the Far Right.

      The BBC so desperate to get the words far-right and terrorist into the same article, they keep labelling the murder of Jo Cox as their example when it was a lone man with mental issues. That doesn’t even qualify as ‘terror related’ for Muslims where they only count it as terrorism if it has a link to a major group.

      The only other one I can remember is the guy who drove his van at a queue of people at a bus stop. Even then, the one person who died already had medical issues. And they actually praised an immam for stopping the Muslim mob from murdering him on the street. The mob were quickly forgotten.

      But what I did discover a while back is what a centre for Islamic terrorists Finsbury Park Mosque used to be.

      https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finsbury_Park_Mosque

      I suspect it’s reputation had something to do with this idiot and his spur-of-the-moment decision – but we didn’t see any of that in the news.

    Did laugh minutes later when the Nagger was talking to the BBC tennis correspondent sweating his nadgers off at court-side….she boasted about being fine…in her air-conditioned studio. Living the dream just not the ideology.

    Four legs good…two legs bad.

    ‘As the pigs gain control, they twist the meaning of the slogan. When they start walking on two legs, they alter the chant to “Four legs good, two legs better!”. This highlights how the pigs exploit language to justify their actions and maintain their power.

    The slogan encapsulates key themes in Animal Farm, including the dangers of unchecked power, the abuse of language for political purposes, and the ease with which revolutionary ideals can be corrupted.’

      Chemsex refers to using specific drugs — often crystal methamphetamine (meth), mephedrone, and GHB/GBL — to enhance or prolong sexual activity, usually with multiple partners.

      It can involve long sessions, often lasting hours or days, and is most associated with gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM).

    He mentioned Liz Green quite a lot
    he was found NOT GUILTY of stalking her

    buried in the old BBC report
    Belfield was found not guilty of stalking Rozina Breen, Liz Green, Helen Thomas and Stephanie Hirst.
    Ms Breen had been his boss at BBC Radio Leeds, Ms Green had been a fellow radio presenter, Ms Thomas had been Ms Breen’s boss, and Ms Hirst joined BBC Radio Leeds as a presenter after Belfield left.

    .. Prior to all this Belfield had received a compensation payment from the BBC for physical injuries sustained when that producer (Breen I think) had set him up by suggesting to rugby players they should be physical with Belfield in a rugby demonstration

    I was reminded today with a link to the extent the last government and this one of a ‘post- War’ program designed to ‘end all world wars’. Churchill refused to sign up. The EU based CCE has morphed in the central bureaucracy of the Brussels EU but behind it all, the real levers of power wss ‘The Club of Rome’ who are behind the FIRST Global Climate Change (procedure and claims) now a EU racket… and the BBC being not really as independent’ as it lies to think it is (or tries to imply), is just following orders. The threat is that if it does NOT follow the ‘consensus’ (EU diktat) or it will have its central (UK state or EU) central funding taken away, (that would be the UK TV license). This is the BBC dilemma! – and why it cannot ever change direction, why it claims to CHECK FACTS (but not its own), verify ‘other’ opinions (balanced with its own extreme consensus), Make absurd claims ‘climate change’ is real – (even when its cooler than average as is today). Even the Met Office follows the same pattern of ‘hot predictions’, and post reasons why is ‘hotter’ somewhere else on the planet (Its called ‘Thermal Dynamics’ so they lost that argument but then made claims its ‘hotter’ somewhere else, even if its colder here). That we are all heated by the Sun is never mentioned.

    Anyway. the BBC is not the only entity that has its own FACT checkers, and we know which way the BBC swings. It cannot ever hope to be independent, it has to follow the path, wherever it leads. As the BBC is untrusted, it can never really have an ‘opt-in’ or ‘opt-out’ UK subscription model. It does do this for Biden’s mob in the USA using iPlayer discounted to $56/ year but only because the BBC is effectively ‘subsidised’ by us in the UK under threat of fines or imprisonment. The BBC states to the USA that it does not ‘do TV Adverts’ – here in the UK, BUT BUT BUT. the BBC is one long, a very LONG Advert in each and every program it ‘Airs’ and ‘produces’ all channel (over a hundred) and on all its UK Radio stations, including the (Foreign office funded) WORLD SERVICES. No BBC ‘Dr Who’ will be produces unless it has one Queer Character who ‘saves the world. The fact is implicit that the planet is in constant CRISIS -, (Climate), non stop war (Ukraine), that we need less people (population control Abortion and Euthanasia) and less food (no meat or dairy), and Travel restrictions (Rationing of all fuel and power). All of this, not surprisingly is the clear aim of the Club of Rome. Its a Global mafia, but only the very few get chosen to push the Agenda, and the BBC does not need a lot of pushing, its and ‘enabler’ of propaganda with Adult Quiz Show and children’s content designed for ‘anxiety’ concerns on planet, food, travel and even a right to exist (identity). This has been a huge success so much so that almost all parents now think their children need Special State Funding for children who suffer from a mysterious illness of Anxiety and Special needs ‘issues’ or claiming to be ‘a goldfish, or a dog, something they are definately not (realism is missing). This is who we are fighting, a blob that seeks our destruction… The US has Trump and here in the UK we have Farage. But after Starmer term in office, we may not have a country, just an EU state (like Ireland) forced to comply with whatever daft ‘EU’ emission states we are at war with.

    I heard of them back in the 1980’s. But dismissed them as global nutters that did not have any power. That is until now. They have all the power they need. They have global money, A War, A climate crisis and back door Eugenics (rejected back in the 1920’s but led directly to the outbreak of the Second World War as it was adopted by Hitler as the ‘final solution’ and the rest is history.

    She was placed in protective custody in a police ‘safe house’ after an attempt to set fire to her home in the immediate aftermath of the bombings.[36][16][18][19][30] At the inquest into the bombings, it was disclosed that Lewthwaite had associated with Mohammad Sidique Khan, the ringleader of the London bombers, before the attacks.[37]

    In September 2005, Lewthwaite was widely criticised for selling her story, in which she portrayed herself as a victim and her husband as a “relatively recent [convert]” who had been “tricked into his actions by extremists”, to tabloid newspaper The Sun for £30,000.
