Marky Mark on the previous Thread posted salaries of the highest paid BBC presenters, excluding Claudia Winkleman for some reason. The BBC are over manned. An example from the continuing row over BBC’s Gaza Documentary and Master Chef. On Toady this a.m. Katie Razell, well known glottal stop perpetuator, was commenting on the row. Then Noor Ananji was doing the follow up. Why two when one would do?
If you are foolish enough to pay the TellyTax you are paying for Emma Barnett’s endless holiday and the Montacutie’s long weekends. Defund the BBC. You know it makes sense. We cannot trust the BBC any longer to be responsible with salaries or staffing levels or with propaganda for Hamas.
On a different note…. Seems very cold for a July evening here in the depths of the Midlands. Not exactly the kind of weather predicted by the one sided propaganda machine that is the BBC. But then we all know that and can see that them and the rest of the MSM’s days are pretty much numbered. The “youf” certainly aren’t buying into the narrative and the future news readers will not be choosing to watch what they already see as biased.
I have left it a while before posting my thoughts on what happened at Glastonbury. Pascal whatever he chose to call himself was perhaps no idiot. He must have known what he was doing was going to give him great publcity (or so he thought, I guess withdrawing his ability to visit the United States for his tour and losing his manager hadn’t been computed into his actions).
There are mumblings in the background that some at the BBC knew exactly what he was going to do or likely to do. There is no explanation yet why Pascal hasn’t been arrested and I would argue that those at the BBC allowing him to do so, should equally be arrested.
In a country of free speech, of course, neither Pascal or the BBC employees should be arrested. But in a country where Lucy Connolly was jailed for so long, we are not in a country of free speech.
What I found deeply disturbing was how quickly the Glasto audience took up the chant. Do I really believe at this moment in time, it would induce anyone in the crowd to kill an Israeli soldier (and bearing in mind most Israelis serve in the IDF, it means any Israeli? No, I don’t believe such a cold blooded murder is likely at the moment.
The real question is whether the UK 2025 is Germany 1933. How quickly the population of Germany in the 1930s, the population who loved Goethe and Beethoven, deepened their hate of Jews until mass murder was the only option.
What we saw with those middle class twerps shouting what they did, was how easily they could be manipulated. A very scary time, not just for Jews, but every decent person.
I might add that some at the BBC see their role to deepen the middle class far left hate of Jews. It isn’t just Jeremy Bowen and his ilk with their twisted reporting. I was listening to an ex-BBC producer or something on GBNews – this poor reporting is all the Israelis’ fault, apparently, because they will not allow BBC reporters into Gaza. It is a common cry. I suspect that the reporters are pleased not to go into a war zone but feel they can impress the BBC audience with their bravery when they are safely holed up in posh hotels in Jerusalem. If the BBC reporters actually did go into Gaza I suspect they wouldn’t like what they saw (as all the well fed children isn’t part of their agenda) and besides which their Hamas minders would ensure they got a twisted view of the situation there.
I really fear we are turning into that 1930s Germany.
Deborah – tricky drawing parallels – but there are ‘commonalities ‘ – I think the obvious one is the approved message which infiltrated all institutions – with the BBC leading the way – ….
So the pro Islam anti Israel is powerful now – and Britain – britainistan – is at a demographic tipping point with a rapidly dominating Islamic gang infiltrating all institutions just like the Far Left has done since post Thatcher ,…
I can’t see anything – or one – to push back . Can anyone ? A lot of British people are really cheesed off – and I wonder whether an event / series of events will trigger anger not seen in recent times –
A lot of people are predicting some sort of civil war as toleration is all used up – whatever 77 brigade and the psycho – war ‘community ‘ try to deal with … but im not so sure .
Within maybe 10 years Islam will dominate Britainistan – I think it’s too late to stop it …
Yes Fedup, I guess the UK is already lost. And yes, Mr D and I have had conversations about where to go. Yes, I fear that Islam will very soon dominate the UK. But what I saw at Glastonbury was how easy it will be to take the far left middle class with them.
Rachel speech – delusion – 2 weeks ago the € was 1.17 to the £ – today it is €1.12 – so her tears have cost people going on holiday to Europe £50 for every £1000 exchanged .
The pound is devaluing ….
The reeves message is that ‘Britain is open for business …. To leave ‘… as no one is listing on the stock market whilst the Marxists are in charge ….

Nothing about the Great Afghan Airlift rings true. I don't believe a "fat-fingered" (Daily Telegraph report) soldier "accidentally" posted details of 100,000 Afghans onto a social media site. I don't believe the sheer numbers involved either, which amount to 10 Afghan… pic.twitter.com/7xR9wuDdNg
"There was a sinister shift in ministers’ reasoning for keeping the public in the dark.. Ministers wanted an “agreed narrative” to explain away the arrivals of large numbers of Afghans – in other words, lie to the public"https://t.co/I4hN3zxs2A
I look ahead with foreboding and wonder how many Palestinians will be imported. They were building a ramp and there was a troop carrier ship loitering in the Mediterranean.
It is almost like there are hidden forces that are determined to have the 3rd world come and live in the UK. The unrest and destabilisation it then causes can be exploited to tell whitey how wicked and waycist he is.
Who on earth was that bloke sacked from some bBC food program for being waycist? I have no idea – haven’t had a telly for over 30 years.
Have readers spotted the latest utter ineptitude in the field of unfettered mass immigration?
In 2022 a civil servant leaked the names of 19000 Afghans who had helped the British Army. Many of them were thus put into jeopardy given the new Taliban government.
As a result around 1500 of them plus their families, say around 6000 all up, have been secretly brought in to the UK at a cost of £850 million.
Hang on. Do the Maths. That’s £140,000 EACH.
Has the civil servant in question been sacked?
Or have they been promoted?
You really can’t make up this level of staggering taxpayer-funded total incompetence.
What always annoys me about the Left when reporting about these people and ‘Windrush’ and all the others like it is that those people didn’t do it out of any sense of loyalty or desire to help us: 99% of them did it for the money and/or to get out of the shithole their own society created. They didn’t give a shit about us or our way of life.
It’s just more gross Left-wing hypocrisy and their desire to create ‘victims of the white man’ to use for virtue signalling.
A 114 year old man, the oldest marathon runner, has died. It is all over the BBC (and other) cnews. He was ‘from Ilford’.
Hang on. It is reported that after a lifetime of farming in India he came over to live in London.
He doesn’t speak English.
He died ‘back home’ in the Punjab.
I hugely admire his zest for life. But…….what the hell was he doing living in London? No doubt he enjoyed the free benefits of our International Health Service, especially at his age.
Is there no-one at all we won’t allow into what we used to call our country?
Two men have been sentenced to prison terms for felling the Sycamore Gap tree on Hadrian’s Wall.
Do you remember the days when people were sentenced directly after the jury verdict? It was the norm.
Now the norm is to bring everyone back to court days or even weeks later. More court time. More payouts for lawyers and the judiciary.
And yet the waiting time for jury trials is now so long post covid that our dear government is looking to abolish them.
There would seem to be a much simpler solution. But I suppose non jury trials for using hurty words and advocating centre- right policies on things like immigration and the uselessness of the NHS gives the left wing woke government the opportunity to indoctrinate and control through fear.
It was a tree and apparently an iconic one. In spite of living for part of my life in the north east, I had never heard of this tree until it was chopped down. Whilst I don’t like the idea of cutting down trees unnecessarily, I do think 4 years is a bit steep. I wonder if those hoodlums who broke a police officers’ nose are found guilty, and if so how long they will serve. It was a tree, for goodness sake.
