      “Firefighters and police officers walk around in red high heels (6 photos)”
      https://www.sootoday.com/local-news/firefighters-and-police-officers-walk-around-in-red-high-heels-6-photos-645018

      The mostly-female audience began smiling and snapping pictures when it was time for the eight burly and fully-uniformed police officers and firefighters to walk across the meeting room floor wearing bright red high heels.

      ‘Are you man enough?’ was the motto they chanted afterwards.

      Join Islam – free flights for everyone and 72 virgins on virgin airlines.

      “In Islamic tradition, the Prophet Muhammad did not ride a “winged horse,” but rather a creature called Buraq during his Night Journey (Isra and Mi’raj) from Mecca to Jerusalem and then into the heavens. Buraq is described as a celestial steed, often depicted with wings, that is larger than a donkey but smaller than a mule. It is known for its incredible speed, with each stride covering the distance of its sight. ”

        Surely you are not insinuating the BBC is biased against white people?
        This photo could be factually representative for two reasons.
        1. It is well-established that white working class boys are among the poorest performers at school with the worst outcomes. Ergo they would not appear positively in A level results coverage
        2. Since many of the BBC’s favourite residential areas have almost no white residents left you can hardly expect them to appear in any photos.

        It’s a win-win for multiculturalism.

    The Brits will go to great lengths to cover up Muslim rape gangs… But cat calling is a step too far.

    Meanwhile, migrants brought into the UK are raping women in extremely disproportionate numbers. The Centre For Migration Control data estimates foreign migrants sexually assault women at a rate 224% higher than the British population.

    According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the Muslim rape gangs give England and Wales the second highest count of Rapes in the World at 1,173 per 10,000. Rape experts estimate that about one million white girls have been raped by Muslim gangs, and that Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists and Hindus are over ten times less likely to rape than Atheists, Muslims and Satanic Socialists. The experts estimate that about one in 25 white women have been raped at least once by a Muslim male.

    According to the charity Rape Crisis, only 15% of rape victims chose to report the crime to the police. In one month, 167 white women reported being raped by Muslim men in Bradford. So Rape Crisis estimate that 1,113 white women are raped by Muslim men in Bradford every month. However halting cat-calling by working-class white males in Bradford is considered a priority by its left-wing upper-class Chief Constable, who is now being investigated by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).

    The British establishment are going to great lengths to cover up Muslim rape gangs using non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) which are extremely common and widely used to silence rape victims everywhere from Asian businesses to hotels, and from County Councils to the Labour Party, NDAs cover up harassment, rape, sexual abuse and more, up and down the country. And it’s working class white girls unable to fight back, who suffer the most.

    However the British establishment are more concerned about possible rapes by Russian invaders, as well as patriotic white British males cat-calling posh female police officers, who have not yet been raped by Russians invaders: https://www.infowars.com/posts/female-uk-police-officers-wear-jogging-outfits-in-sting-operation-targeting-men-who-whistle-at-or-catcall-them

        Getting Sunka in pole position was the best they could do, because the entire Tory supporter population knew he wasn’t the right bloke to solve the problems, and it was therefore obvious that they’d just cut and run, knowing that Starmer would have to take the flak.

    Astonishingly dishonest ‘report’ from the BBC about the death of the car industry…..you’d have to look very very hard to find a hint of the true cause….but hang on…there is a cause this BBC ‘indepth’ report has uncovered….

    ‘Factory closures have had an impact, but other factors have been at play as well, including uncertainty over US trade policy, which has hit exports to a major market.

    Then there was the role of Brexit.’

    Blame it on Trump and…oh yeah…Brexit.

    How about massive energy cost rises due to green policies? How about car manufacturing falling off a cliff because of green policies that tell manufacturers not to produce cars?

    Here’s the honest truth from the Telegraph…

    ‘Petrol ban has plunged Europe’s car industry into crisis, says Mercedes boss’
    ‘A looming ban on the sale of new petrol and diesel cars has plunged Europe’s car industry into crisis, the boss of Mercedes-Benz has warned.

    Ola Kallenius has urged Brussels to urgently review the policy to avoid the sector’s collapse, as he said carmakers are facing their bleakest-ever outlook.’

    Oddly lacking any mention of that just a brief drive-by about energy…

    ‘Then, there are energy costs. British manufacturers currently pay some of the highest electricity prices in the world.’

    That’s it…move on…nothing to see here….oh there might be a rise in labour costs..but again move rapidly on without mentioning who is to blame for that rise.

    ‘Part of this is to do with labour costs. Although lower than in some other Western European countries, particularly Germany, they are around twice the level seen in Central European nations such as Poland, Slovakia and Hungary.’

    The BBC thinks it may have found the solution…green is not the problem..it is the solution….

    ‘”If you embrace the move to electric vehicles and become a leading light in attracting Chinese investment, then you can do what China did to us in the past, which is essentially use collaboration to rebuild your industry,” argues Andy Palmer, who now owns and invests in clean energy companies.

    This would, he adds, require significant government action, including negotiations with Beijing.’

    The question is, is it already too late?

    That last line giving away the BBC mindset.

    As said, a very very long ‘indepth’ look at the reasons the car industry is imploding…and yet it misses out the real reasons for that…green policies and Labour’s massive tax hikes on industry.

    This is disinformation designed to fool us and sway us into believing a huge lie.

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c23p028p200o

    Not as if the car industry isn’t important..but when ideology trumps reality, jobs and livestyles you’re heading for the green gulags of unemployment and misery….

    ‘”There is a critical mass of employment,” he explains. “Once you go below that, you see it all fall apart.

    “You don’t have the university courses, you don’t have people coming across from the aero industry, you don’t have the pipeline of skilled engineers that allow the luxury firms to exist, and so on.”

    And the knock-on effect of this could affect regions already facing challenges.

    “If we think about parts of the UK that have automotive plants, they’re often disadvantaged regions,” says David Bailey, professor of business economics at Birmingham Business School.

    “Losing these good quality jobs would have a big impact in terms of wages for workers and also a knock-on effect in terms of the multiplier on the local economy.”‘

      He said the average reduction in a bill would be “£25,000 for a school” and “£45,000 for a hospital”.

    MPs DEMAND Starmer PERSONALLY investigated over grooming gangs

    6 July 2025 “Chris Wild said grooming and criminal exploitation are rife in the capital, and it is being missed due to poor data-sharing and underfunded services.”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cq8zew2egjvo
    “It wasn’t just any children’s home, it was a children’s home run by paedophiles,” he said.

    26 August 2014 “Prof Jay said the first of these reports was “effectively suppressed” because senior officers did not believe the data. The other two were ignored, she said.”
    Some were doused in petrol and threatened with being set alight, while others were threatened with guns, made to watch “brutally violent rapes” and warned they would be next if they told anyone.

      Stephane Ebongue fled Cameroon because of the colour of his skin – his albinism made him a target for those who believe such people have special powers. Years later he returned home to confront a witchdoctor, and to question him about the practice of using human body parts in “magic” potions.

      https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-36131711

      “It is believed that parts of an albino, such as their heart, hair or fingernails, are important to make magical potions – for instance to fertilise the soil, to become invincible, to win political elections or a football match,” says Ebongue.

      “This is why albinos are killed and mutilated for the parts of their body.”

      According to a recent UN report, such body parts can fetch prices from $2,000 for a limb to $75,000 for a “complete set” – a whole body.

    “The story does have a genuine historical parallel in Soviet Russia. A pair of clowns, Bim and Bom, were amongst the earliest victims of Lenin’s secret police. In spring 1918 during one their performances the famous circus double act began satirising the Bolsheviks. Some angry Cheka officers in the audience decided to put a stop to this: they interrupted the show, chased after the clowns– opening fire as they did so (much to the amusement of the crowd who thought it was part of the act)– and arrested them.3 Comedy, it appears, was the first casualty of class war.”

    Just read an article in the Telegraph on the Kings speech commemorating VJ Day. The reader’s comments are excoriating, 95% are very much against King Charles and see him variously as a Globalist stooge, anti British, pro Islam, an insulated buffoon.
    If this is how the readership of the Telegraph feel about the King then he has certainly lost the support of the country as a whole. Nor do readers have much regard for William.
    The monarchy faces a crisis even though they don’t seem to realise it yet. They are still going Woke and islamophilic but the rest of the country is tracking in the opposite direction.

    Permission to recite a small story about my uncle . In the 1940s he was too young for the military so he joined the Home Guard – which he hated – and hated Dads Army too –

    When he was old enough – around 1943 – he was called up and joined the RTR . He went East . He never talked about his war – he was 18 – I think – when he joined up . In 1945 his RTR recce unit was in Burma .

    He was in the Naffee playing cards with his mates . An excited officer came is and announced ‘the wars over – the yanks have dropped a bomb – the japs have surrendered ‘ ….. and the card school carried on .

    After the war he was sent to India . When he came home he was very ill from those jungle illnesses . They affected him for his whole life . He is gone now – im glad he didn’t see what has been done to his country ….

        My Dad was a CPO on aircraft carriers throughout the German and Japanese war eras.

        At the close of hostilities with the Japanese his carrier fleet was sent to the Far East to bring back freed British Servicemen to bring them back home.

        However these prisoners were in such a pitiful condition that the order was given to sail about with them for weeks without bringing them back to the UK straight away to allow time to feed them up as many were walking skeletons in shocking condition This done to avoid creating massive rage by the public against the Japanese.

      MM, Your boat numbers. You never provide an explanation of what they are. I assume 8th August was a good day because no boats arived carrying no illegal immigrants at all. Was that due to the weather? I assume the following day, 435 illegal immigrants arrived in a total of seven boats BUT THAT DOES NOT EXPLAIN THE FINAL ZERO. What is that for?

    BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – In Jeremy Bowen’s dreams …..

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c3r441zyw27o
    Jeremy Bowen would like to see the back of Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. JezBo would like the Israeli Government to fall, and he no doubt hopes his article will bring that about. However this is a telling paragraph in the article: “The silent demonstrations to stop the killing are getting bigger – some are held outside airbases, where they try to catch the eye of pilots arriving for bombing raids into Gaza – but the demonstrators still hold a minority view.

    JezBo you have undone what the BBC no doubt approves with that paragraph and the photo of apparently ‘starving and emaciated’ Palestinians holding heavy metal bowls for free food. In a move to present his impartiality, no doubt to impress the BBC bosses, Jeremy Bowen does include a statement from Bibi Netanyahu: “In a news conference conducted in English for the international media on 10 August, Netanyahu condemned reports of starvation in Gaza. He wanted “to puncture the lies… the only ones that are being starved in Gaza are our hostages”.

    He has, for many years, equated criticism of Israel with antisemitism. Accounts of hunger, and IDF soldiers killing Palestinians struggling to find food that have been believed and condemned by Israel’s allies, including Britain, France and Germany, should he said be viewed in the context of the long history of the persecution of Jews in Europe.

    “We were said to be spreading vermin to Christian society, we were said to be poisoning the wells, we were said to slaughter Christian children for their blood.

    “And as these lies spread around the globe, they were followed by horrific, horrific massacres, pogroms, displacements, finally culminating the worst massacre of them all – the Holocaust.

    “Today the Jewish state is being maligned in a similar way.”

    We will let Bibi have the last word.

It stands out precisely because it is said simply, and because its essential grandeur is intelligible to everybody. Its principles ought to be just as intelligible and accessible to those who don’t yet speak English, in just the same way as the great Lord Mansfield once ruled that, wherever someone might have been born, and whatever he had been through, he could not be subject to slavery once he had set foot on English soil.”

    Well, blow me down, Ricky Jones, the infamous Labour councillor who called for “far right” protesters throats to be cut, has been found NOT GUILTY…Honestly!

    And this wasn’t some lefty judge that let him off, this was a trial in front of a jury. It truly beggars belief.

    This ugly lump stood in front of a jeering mob and screamed about “Nazis” and “far right” and called for their “throats to be cut” while running his finger across his throat and called them “all disgusting Nazi fascists.” He continued, “We need to get rid of them all.”

    Just think about this, Lucy Connolly was arrested within days, brought before the beak and imprisoned. This git has had over a year of freedom before he even reached a court.

    Imagine if a certain Tommy Robinson was caught on film making similar remarks about his political opponents. Blimey, his sorry arse wouldn’t touch the ground. It would be Belmarsh and pronto.

      “Tell Media Billionaires: Don’t Cave to Trump”

      “To the leaders of the most powerful media companies in the United States:
      We call on you to reject bullying, manipulation and harassment by the Trump administration. Do not compromise your independence to curry favor with an abusive and corrupt regime. The U.S. Constitution has your back, and so do we.

      The First Amendment protects the media’s right to be free of government interference in editorial decisions. This freedom is essential to a functioning and healthy democracy. But press freedom is of little value when media companies put profits before people, capitulate to political pressures and fail to act as the people’s watchdogs.

      Since Donald Trump took office in January 2025, far too many media owners have caved to pressure from the Trump administration in the misguided belief that toeing the White House line will win them regulatory favors, official approval of business mergers or other benefits. Fearing retribution, other media owners have settled meritless lawsuits from the president and his allies.

      We urge you to stand with us in defense of an independent media system that holds people in power accountable.”

    Considering what is going on in the war and the glaring hypocrisy and double standards over the reporting of it all, are we really supposed to think this is the issue on everybodies mind:

    ‘Matt in Cheltenham asks: “There’s an international arrest warrant out for Putin – why won’t he be arrested once he lands on American soil?”‘

    This article by Lurch basically says ‘All Democrat Presidents did the right thing. The nasty Republicans will not agree to it.’

    It’s pathetic : Lurch avoids completely the other ridiculous decisions of this court – such as the arrest warrant for the Israeli PM – as they show the ICC as the corrupt, Muslim and general thrid-world infested farce it really is.
