BBC bill for this week – ‘thought for the day ‘ ‘pulled ‘ because the foreign speaker accused a senior British politician of xenophobia because he doesn’t want the country to be invaded every day .
Then there’s another ‘bake off ‘ contestant wanting to be pulled from the broadcast because the presenters have both been cancelled by the BBC .The editing out of the presenters was a media joke .
And the US State Department reports on the diminishing freedom of speech and thought in not so Grear Britain .
Well, I am here again!
Wondering if Scrobie will get here in time and wondering whether the BBC will ever get their ‘commeuppence’ which they truly deserve. Defund the BBC “You know it makes sense!”
BBC WEB-SITE Watch #1 – Incredible how the BBC portray life in the UK.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0ml42ww740o
I guess I should not be surprised after TWatO interviewed three girls on Thursday despite boys outdoing girls in the examination hall for the first time in ages. A BAME woman is shown ‘doing something’ with a hammer on the Business pages!
Watching ‘No way out’, from 1987…
Kevin Kostner and Gene Hackman!
Good film, great twist in the end, and some excellent scenes too!
Totally forgot it was Friday evening, but you remembered Uppers!
Pole position yet again is a deserved medal and tinctures will be -taken – well – later tomorrow!
PUTIN APOLOGISTS…
John Healy , who is in charge of Defence, you remember he’s ordered 12 submarines to be built but has no idea how much the cost will be….and said so.
Anyway, he has announced rather grandly that Reform shouldn’t have the ability to nominate any candidate to the House of Lords, saying “WE don’t want anymore Putin apologists”… So who are the others……he has failed to name them, perhaps it’s nothing sinister and merely another thing he doesn’t know.
I do think he should be pushed on the point.
Has there been the inevitable Trump kicking contest over his failure to achieve world peace ? I heard Gary o Donahue get into the gutter with the rest claiming it was all about the Nobel prize – I thought thr blind o Donahue was one of the few with a bit of integrity – but I was wrong …. Just another see word
How long have we been without an Archbishop of Canterbury? Has every Church of England senior clergy got skeletons in their cupboard? Is the Church searching for a black woman who might be suitable? Why isn’t the BBC asking questions?
Who can deny that everything the good Enoch said has come true…as he predicted our cities would be taken over by people who have no connection to, no loyalty to and no liking for us…..
Enoch Powell and George Orwell setting the scene for the next century!
Wouldn’t it have been a great discussion to show to a decent indigenous British audience, with some lumpen lefties ‘poo pooing’ them…
These lumpers are now in the ascendant – sadly.
Irony they’re so proud of Pakistan independence …buuuut….don’t actually want to live in a country that they think is so great.
Curiously they’re not so keen to fly the flag for Israel independence day.
Lol….two BBC people who seem, judging by their output, to hate Trump, are given the job of discussing the Trump/Putin meeting. Naturally it’s all snide conjecture and attempts to put down Trump….completely pointless mud-slinging exercise dressed up as analysis.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/c6205ezp6nlo
Then again it’s the same wherever you look on the BBC….plenty of talk over the day and yet they avoid mentioning the very uncomfortable question…why would Putin agree to any peace deal when he is winning and Ukraine will be completely under his control in a years time…given Putin cares nothing for the cost in Russian[or Ukrainian] dead or in monetary terms.
Zelensky says he won’t give up any land…but he’s losing more every day and he’s never going to be able to take back what’s lost…and Crimea? Forget that.
Ukraine’s best and only bet is to agree to peace now and draw up the new borders…otherwise they will lose the whole country. BBC et al outraged at this reality…but don’t remember any such outrage when Putin took Crimea.
BBC attacks Trump for possibly offering Putin trade deals or re-entry into world politics….but how else would he entice Putin in? More sanctions? Not working at all now are they? Sanction India and China for buying Russian oil? Lol…can’t see that being effective and will just piss off both countries…countries that themselves have significant clout. Oh…and how about all the gas that still flows into the EU from Russia…ahem?
Can’t have force winning and creating new borders? Crimea? How about so many European countries after each war? Oh and yeah…heard of East Prussia? Where’s that now? Not in Germany anymore…. It’s a part of Russia still embedded in Europe….captured in WW2 and still in their hands even after the collapse of communism.
The whole debate about Ukraine is smoke and mirrors with little truth being allowed in…..Russia has won and one of the main reasons is that all those expressing their outrage were too scared to stand up to Putin…they surrendered the Crimea and now Ukraine. Putin rattled the nuclear sabre and they all ducked for cover and watched from the sidelines. Put up or shut up…either tell Putin it’s war and put troops into Ukraine or accept defeat.
The only possible peace deal is one where Putin is forced to agree one….Nato is going to put troops in to maintain the peace and it’ll be war if Putin attacks anymore. The West must call his bluff.
pug, the BBC would be horrified if we said what motivated Vlad ‘the mad Aggressor’ Putin was Cathy Ashton’s visit, on behalf of the EU, to Ukraine in 2014 to dangle the prospect of EU membership and a lot of Euros in front of the then leaders of Ukraine.
BBC Radio 4 Midday -titled Antisocial
I could only get my time allowed to listen but
BBC put their verify fact checker team to tell us that migrants are only more likely per se to commit sexual crimes because they are younger males . !?
Well of course this means what we know . The illegal bogus immigrants are not women and children , but young fighting fit men .
Like the BBC Al Jazeera is a media partner of Hamas. I used to
comment about the BBC being the ” all but media partners of
Hamas.’ BUT one can now say that the BBC who parrot
everything they are told by Hamas as gospel. Show us
staged imaging of photos of hunger and despair in
collaboration with Hamas. Is very similar to Al Jazeera.
The difference between the BBC and Al Jazeera is that the
latter is a banned organization in many ARAB countries,
Including Egypt, Saudi Arabia, The Emirates . And even the
Palestinian Authority !
Al-Sharif the so called Al Jazeera employee who posed as a journalist
for Al Jazeera. His part time job being a Hamas cell leader
in charge of rocket launching. Was recently eliminated by the IDF. To the chagrin of the BBC.
I must be fair to the BBC . Jeremy Bowen and the rest of the
BBC crew who are allowed to report from Israel. Are not
involved in Hamas rocket launching. They may have said at the time. That
Israel had launched a missile that destroyed a Gaza hospital and
killed 500. When it was a Hamas rocket that destroyed the
hospital car park. BUT I reiterate Bowen and his crew had nothing to do with the launching.
Israel should declare the BBC as an enemy agent and be treated as such – expelled from the country … at the very least …
BBC can’t believe their luck, Trump/Putin talks going on so they have an excuse not to discuss the Rick Jones debacle. Off their website too. Fortunately Talk Radio still discussing it and Lucy Connelly coming out next week could keep it going. I wonder if that will get a mention and comparison?
Im sure Lucy Connolly has been lined up for all those bbc current affairs / propaganda shows like ‘today ‘ and ‘winning hour ‘ and news night and Laura k and and and …. Or in reality they’ll bury her release and her…
…. Mind you it would be in the interests of the Marxists to continue to use her as a warning that if a nice repentant lady can get the full treatment – so can you . Fight being arrested – never answer questions – plead not guilty – go for a jury trial – get contrived mental health reports … and you walk – unless it’s a coloured Islamic jury of course …
Alex Bellfield has given on his YouTube channel some of the tricks that prison authorities played on him to make his life more difficult and suggested some of the same things might be happening to Lucy Connolly. I’m sure it is the same for Tommy Robinson. I know I am naive but I do wonder why and who is issuing these orders.
Eventually found in bBC regions…
Giving evidence in his trial, Mr Jones said his comment did not refer to far-right protesters involved in the riots at the time, but to those who had reportedly left National Front stickers on a train with razor blades hidden behind them.
Before he made the comment, jurors were shown video where he said to crowds: “You’ve got women and children using these trains during the summer holidays.
“They don’t [care] who they hurt.”
He told the court he was “appalled” by political violence, adding: “I’ve always believed the best way to make people realise who you are and what you are is to do it peacefully.”
Not sure I’d describe slitting citizens’ throats as ‘peaceful’, but there again, some tribes in other parts of the world do this as a matter of course, and probably don’t think it is a bad thing!
I found a half-decent gardening knife in the saddle bag of my bike yesterday, it frightens me even to open it, let alone use it on anything without wearing an armour-plated pair of gloves and a crash helmet!
Given ‘events’, dear readers. ‘Events’… I was taken by a thread about BBC reporting I do recommend, but choose here a comment in reply as emblematic.

Yes I’m fine but I’m worried about your definition of facts
We are in an era when ‘facts’ depend very much on additional actors and ‘factors’.
A whole raft of utterly complicit commentariat citing a narrow tunnel version of law, irrespective of and cutely ignoring what can be done to shape an outcome before, during and when the wig pronounces at the end. Plus in jail, if the state is so minded.
Forgive me guest who but I followed thr link but don’t understand your point ….
Still reading responses to the Ricky jones case – I just wish there’d been more detailed commentary on the trial – including the complexion of the jury – the barristers – the prosecution accepted jones mental ‘condition ‘ which was a clear and clever fabrication . Was the prosecution chosen for being stupid like Lucy Connolly’ s brief …
But what goes around comes around ….
No forgiveness necessary if I failed to make myself clear.

This is how the BBC can make a true story seem false.
Last week:
@CharlotteCGill
reported that schools got children as young as 5 to make Valentine’s Day cards for asylum seekers.
This week: The BBC runs a piece making the whole idea sound like misinformation.
Though your latest post suggests you have grasped the many, varied and venal ways the establishment blob operates and secures its desired result.
The post in reply to Chris’ about the BBC manipulating stuff was trying to separate the poster’s notion of ‘facts’ from a different reality, down to getting into definitions of what is a ‘fact’.
From the responses of too many fine legal minds to the Jones case, this is a prevalent approach, either from over immersion in a deeply nasty swamp, or plain self interested venal greed. I cannot accuse many of being thick. Things are either black, or white, and if necessary black becomes white.
The BBC was but one, if significant arrow in the quiver of state manipulation tools to assist the jury to arrive at the decision they did.
All totally ignored as factors in trying to paint the unshakeable skill and probity of 12 good citizens and true arriving at a verdict that a guy saying ‘slit their throats’ with video of the speech in question plus added gesture, was in fact innocent of any crime of hate or incitement and arrived at that in short order with no chance of undue influence for failing to grasp the outcome required.
Here is a reply to yet another of our learned friends chipping to to tell one and all that if it looks like a duck, walks like and duck or quacks like a duck, if they can be part of a system to convince a jury it is in fact a pig, a pig is what it now is.

In the course of this exchange, their skill in argument goes from:
ViewFromTheNorth (JHKC) 🐝
“I didn’t mean it” is a bit reductive but yes, basically that is a defence.
To:
ViewFromTheNorth (JHKC) 🐝
What do you want explaining?
Which is classic evasion in the face of reasonable counter.
The KC here absolutely will not go near anything outside of the narrow track the legal system set out to the only result possible, ignoring all pertinent factors alongside.
Few are buying now.
I have never subscribed to the wholly arrogant notion of ‘respect for the court’, especially when dressing nicely and sucking lip insincerely can so easily see concessions when honesty and truth and sticking to guns is viewed with vengeful horror and distain.
The KC used this in support of his professional superior:
Rosa Dean is an exceptional Judge.
But what is really important is that the defendant was acquitted by a jury. A jury. 12 ordinary people.
That last is a ‘fact’ in question. The rest is pure, arrogant, blinkered opinion brooking no concession or openness to even think of other factors.

Quite long but absolutely sums up my own impression of the Israel/Gaza situation.
The BBC and Sky News get special mention as the biggest spreaders of lies.

I was gently ‘amused ‘ by the Marxist disinformation put out yesterday – one was that the inheritance tax on farms wouldn’t affect many ( so why bother ?) and then that not as many wealthy taxpayers are leaving the third world country as first thought – but there’s no evidence for this ….
… elsewhere – indulge me – I was thinking about how a new government coming in in 2029 will address the wrecking that the Marxists have done .
It will be a far bigger task than what President Trump faced when he was elected . The whole British state has been subverted since the end of Margaret thatcher . Everything is dirty – with a dependent infantile population proud of their benefits ….
Business as usual edition
There’s a palpable air of relief evident when one views the top story headlines on the BBC online news page – thank goodness the war isn’t over… particularly as any result of Trump’s efforts.
‘A long way for nothing?’ BBC correspondents on Alaska meeting (BBC)
So how about the football then?
‘When will it stop?’ – just to avoid any possible confusion this ain’t BBC correspondents on the Ukraine war, this is Charlotte Coates, BBC Sport journalist, on Bournemouth’s opening Premier League fixture away at Liverpool.
When will it stop? – that’s a strange way to kick off the season, luv.
I’m inevitably put in mind of satirical comic David Mitchell’s sketch Watch the Football! from That Mitchell and Webb Look as aired on the BBC – bearing in mind a certain degree of corporate sour grapes that commercial rivals, the likes of Sky, had nabbed the lion’s share of soccer broadcasting rights and in terms of a non-sporting bookish nerd’s lament at the sporting jocks and their utter obsession with football – our David, in the guise of some brash football commentator, “On Sky Sports Four” stalks the touchline of a stadium shouting his big build-up pitch for those many frankly and honestly unremarkable upcoming fixtures:
“Old scores will be settled at The Dell, scores like one-nil, and two -all, scores that have happened in previous years… then on Sunday live the battle for the north west at Shrewsbury we’ve Macclesfield in a match already being described as ‘on this Sunday’… Looking ahead to March every football team will be playing football several times in various combinations… catch all of the constantly happening football here… it’s all here and it’s all football, always! Constant dizzying year-long football! Every kick of it massively mattering to someone, presumably” Our David continues in what rock music fans might describe as a “wig out” finale in celebration of countless hours of upcoming soccer coverage.
But we digressed. Our Charlotte Coates, BBC Sport journalist, wasn’t asking the question: ‘When will it stop?’ as a lament at the never-ending-ness of soccer coverage. Nope…
‘When will it stop?’ – league opener halted as Semenyo reports racism – top BBC sports story, mind you.
Friday’s opening Premier League game between Liverpool and Bournemouth was stopped in the first half after Cherries forward Antoine Semenyo reported being racially abused by someone in the Anfield crowd. – a halt, if momentary, to football – perhaps just briefly answering David Mitchell’s evident agony at the inescapable inexorable march of football.
Mr AsI is prompted to ask: ‘When will it stop?’ Anti-racism on the BBC?
Well, as consolation to our David and those who would rather ‘look away now’ in terms of football… there’s always: Women’s Rugby World Cup… your free guide to England 2025 – the Guardian there, as so often is the case, fascinated by sport – so long as there’s some identity politics involved.
Your Mr AsI’s contention – pushed hereabouts like a Sky sports commentator pushes the football (some might say) is that Lockdowns demoralised the British workforce.

I had turned the footy off at 8 minutes – when the Liverpool victims started clapping about a dead Portuguese mercenary footy player … kiss the £ badge £ …. Glad I missed the nasty word incident and all the race propaganda which must have coloured the rest of the game …
Half the players were coloured apparently – so enough for an ID parade ….

“Immigration is not what caused the collapse of the Soviet Union.
Immigration is not what impoverished Venezuela.
Immigration is not what brought starvation to North Korea.
Governments did all of that TO THEIR OWN PEOPLE, while their people were busy fighting the wrong enemy – each other.
And immigration is not what’s caused your quality of life to fall here in Australia either.
Immigration is the scapegoat. Government is the problem.
Immigration did not drive up our power bills, that was government with Net Zero.
Immigration did not destroy our manufacturing, that was government with red and green tape and power prices.
Immigration did not cause inflation, that was government with massive money printing.
Immigration did not destroy our productivity, that was government with red and green tape and the invention of vast amounts of useless government jobs.
Immigration did not lock you down for a nasty flu, that was government who were ‘keeping you safe’.
Immigration did not pass laws to silence and censor you or make you register to use social media, that was government.
Immigration didn’t take your job either, that’s on you.
But you know what? You’re right, immigration did make housing more expensive… AFTER the government had already doubled construction costs with taxes and red tape and made land release slow and expensive and imposed minimum standards that make it impossible to build cheap accommodation anymore…
… so yeah, you’re right. Immigration did add to ONE of the problems that Government had already created.
So if you ‘win’ this fight against immigration, guess what? Houses will get a bit cheaper, temporarily.
And everything else will just keep getting worse.
Because it’s not the immigrants who are doing this, it’s our own government.
Many Australians are gearing up to fight the wrong enemy.
If these ‘white culture’ idiots stop immigration but DON’T stop our government from destroying us all then all they’ll do is turn Australia into the worlds largest white ghetto, with collapse and poverty and even hunger in our future if we don’t FIX GOVERNMENT.
‘Fixing immigration’ isn’t a ‘step in the right direction’, it’s a road to nowhere and we have no time to waste.
Venezuela fell into genuine hunger in only 10 years after electing Hugo Chavez, who ‘helped’ them in similar ways to how our government is ‘helping’ us now.
Let’s focus on coming together to fix the ACTUAL problem.”
‘Fixing immigration’ isn’t a ‘step in the right direction’, it’s a road to nowhere and we have no time to waste. WHY NOT DO IT ALL?
Illegal Immigration did not rape your kids.
Illegal Immigration did not take over your hotels.
Illegal Immigration did not hang around your kids school yard.
Illegal Immigration, unlimited will be a joy to behold. Think of all those Turkish barbers.
The Ministry of Gaslighting would assure us that jury selection in The UK is completely fair and without bias.
That picture is unfair – I think that’s the old Bailey – the jones trial was at Snaresbrook – the highest acquittal rate in the country …
Upon hearing the innocent verdict, all the strictly impartial jurors chanted ‘Allahu Akbar’ and ‘From the River to the Sea’, and ‘Death to UK, the Great Satan’.
Tricky one for the BbC – a Liverpool ‘supporter ‘ in a wheel chair shouted at some ‘racial abuse ‘ to a coloured player as he took a throw in ….
So who to ‘approve ‘ ? The Liverpool victim overcome by grief over the dead Portuguese player ? Or the coloured footy player .
Presumably the wheelchair boy will use the ‘Ricky jones defence ‘ and didn’t really mean he wanted to cut all those throats …..
If Liverpool fc is ‘fined ‘ they too will play the victim card as usual …
From the DT – another victory for ‘verify ‘
The BBC has admitted that it broadcast inaccurate figures about Lucy Letby in a Panorama film looking into the case.
Letby’s barrister has vowed to complain to Ofcom over the “misleading” statistics, which claimed that breathing tubes were dislodged 40 times more than normal when Letby worked as a trainee on the neonatal unit Liverpool Women’s Hospital.
“Panorama – Lucy Letby: Who to believe” aired last week looking at new evidence that has come to light since the former nurse was convicted of murdering seven babies and attempting to murder seven more at the Countess of Chester Hospital.
The programme said that while the usual rate of breathing tube dislodgement was less than 1 per cent, on Letby’s shifts it was 40 per cent.
But statisticians said they had mixed up the data meaning that they were 10 times off. The BBC has now accepted that some of its figures were inaccurate and has re-recorded sections of the programme.
Experts from the universities of Warwick and Edinburgh have contacted the BBC to complain and Mark McDonald, Ms Letby’s barrister, said he would take the matter to Ofcom.
“Quite simply they got their maths wrong, and the problem is that there are parents of babies who were at Liverpool Women’s Hospital that will watch that programme and be misled and find it very distressing,” Mr McDonald said.
“I complained to the BBC before the programme because they got it wrong on so many levels and they don’t seem to care so I will escalate it to Ofcom.”
The Panorama data was based on figures showing there had been 20 tube dislodgements during “ventilated shifts”when Letby was on duty, a ventilated shift referring to a single intubated baby over a 12-hour period.
BBC presenters said that meant a tube was dislodged in 40 per cent of Ms Letby’s 50 shifts at the unit.
ME There’s more but I couldn’t be bothered to cut and paste
Government advisers
This debate didn’t get too much traction but it should have…
Just over a week ago, independent researcher Ben Pile debated one Dr Paul Dorfman on the climate and energy.
They discussed all sorts of things: energy prices, wind farms, the “climate crisis”…
Almost remarkably, every time Pile made a point, Dorfman dodged and even started resorting to insults.
But it was Dorfman’s comments at the end that really stood out. He said:
“We are in a climate crisis, and we don’t necessarily need people who suggest otherwise”.
It marked an astonishing moment, with a supposed professor suggesting that debate—what he should cherish as an academic—isn’t just helpful but damaging.
And it’s something we’re increasingly seeing with pro-climate academics.
In 2020, three senior climate academics published a paper on the Carbon Brief website that genuinely called for climate sceptics to be subject to “punishments”.
Such punishments for “misinformation”, as they put it, included “fines or imprisonment”.
In other words, they suggested imprisoning their opponents.
We needn’t forget that state-subsidised “green” energy tycoon Dale Vince has also called for climate scepticism to be criminalised.
The closer you look at the pro-climate lobby, the more you find these beliefs. They have an overt fascist problem.
It might be obvious to say but if you’re advocating jail time for people who suppose your arguments then your arguments can’t be very good to begin with.
For context, Dorfman is also heavily linked to the government, having worked as secretary to a Government Scientific Advisory Committee and an adviser for Ministry of Defence (MoD).
I think Green crap monsters like that would burn deniers at the stake if they could – like going back 5 hundred years – out current time re Muslims …frightening …
The Right believe we have a two tier justice system with the Courts and Judges all favouring the Left.
The Left say it is impartial and are happy with it.
The Right say the bbc is biased to the left. The left say the BBC is impartial and are happy with it.
The Right say the police are favouring all the woke left wing BLM types. The left are happy with the police.
The Right are saying the schools and universities are all full of left wing teachers who are brainwashing our children and students. The left are happy with the education system.
So many other examples but basically the Right are continuously losing out and the Left are getting all the decisions.
Can anyone see a pattern here.
Also, my take on the Lucy / Jones cases.
I think both should never have been charged. It’s supposed to be a free Country. TTK has told us, “we have free speech”
I see UK state goons are trying to extend Ofcom’s take on free speech to the USA
Search ofcom leaders hard drives for porn BBC- Huw Edwards has some examples.
EG – Ricky Jones ? Committed the crime of incitement – words and gestures to a crowd in a public place . Arrest and charge shouid have been immediate – whatever the colour ….

BIRMINGHAM, England — Outside the Maasha’Allah internet cafe, Mohammed Hussain raised his voice over the recorded Quranic verses blaring from the abaya shop two doors down. He was furious that Britain’s latest terrorist attacker had amplified his city’s stigma.
“Why do all the jihadis come to Birmingham?” he half-shouted, prompting a passing group of teenage girls in bright-colored head scarves to frown, then giggle.
Exaggeration or not, many people are asking that question. Khalid Masood, 52, the Briton responsible for the deadly attack outside Parliament last week, remains a puzzle to investigators working on how, why and when he was radicalized.

“The Labour leader of Birmingham City Council that recently instructed workers to pull down St George and Union Jack flags…
His name John Cotton, a man who previously served as the council’s Cabinet Member for Social Justice, Community Safety and Equalities.
He took over in May 2023 after a damning report exposed the “dysfunctional” state of the Birmingham Labour group.
In an unprecedented move, Labour’s national leadership imposed Cotton as council leader rather than allowing local councillors to elect their own.
Almost comically in the response to the flag-raising, the council said:
“People who attach unauthorised items to lampposts could be putting their lives and those of motorists and pedestrians at risk.”
They also claimed:
“Lampposts are engineered for their specific purpose, and adding extra weight or stress from flags and attachments can cause them to weaken over time, potentially leading to collapse.”
It follows heavy criticism of the Labour leadership’s handling of the bin strike scandal, which left some 21,000 tonnes of rubbish uncollected and piling up on the streets, prompting reports of rats “as big as cats”.
By April 2025, the strike had led to an estimated 2.8 million uncollected wheelie bins across the city.

“Bring sick and injured children to UK from Gaza immediately, MPs say”
sick? Define sick? Sleeping with children sick?
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gmk2yj5e9o
A cross-party group of MPs has written to the government urging them to bring sick and injured children from Gaza to the UK “without delay” for treatment.
In a letter to senior ministers, 96 MPs stressed children are at risk of imminent death and any barriers to their evacuation should be lifted.
They warn the healthcare system in the Gaza Strip has been “decimated” and have requested a timeline of evacuations, as well as adequate funding.

ISLAMIC EGYPT?
Egypt’s healthcare system is a mix of public and private providers, with the public sector largely funded by the government and offering basic care. The private sector is extensive, offering higher quality care but at a cost. The government is working towards universal healthcare coverage, with a focus on improving public facilities and implementing a Universal Health Insurance (UHI) system.

ISLAMIC QATAR CAN HELP?
Qatar’s healthcare system is a mix of public and private services, with a strong emphasis on high-quality care. Qatari citizens have access to a national health insurance scheme, while expatriates are generally covered by their employers or must purchase their own insurance. The system is known for its advanced medical equipment, highly qualified staff, and a countrywide network of hospitals and healthcare centers.
Just thinking of the Ricky jones case – the Marxist system did a highly effective job of getting him off – the prep time – a year to rehearse – the choice of judge – far left activist – the choice of court – highest acquittal rate in the country – high profile defence KC – loads of medical evidence – an inferior prosecuting counsel – a fixed jury ( fixed by ethnic catchment area ) …..
….all adding up to a definite acquittal ….. but looking to the less perceptive as a ‘fair trial ‘ ….. I feel for Lucy Connolly watching that farce .
I really hope she has a fight in her and not been broken by prison – but I fear she will have been . 5 days to go unless they kill her before release… and yes I believe they would ‘off’ her …
The Ricky Jones verdict is going to have significant ramifications in the UK.
Any civil society is based on trust and this verdict drives a coach and horses through the word.
Jones may have won but 67m people less one have lost.
Non – they assume that people forget – but in modern language – they – like much of the msm – is failing to read the room – it’s like clockwork being wound up and up ….day after day of sex assaults and the rest – with invaders thinking they are fire proof ( careful with the language ) ….
Just following along the above post – sometime in the past year the was a conspiracy to pervert the course of justice set up – probably in the ministry of justice – there’d have been meetings and ‘understandings ‘ with no notes no records no emails – no phone calls …. It would have those who set the court – the trial date – the judge – perhaps in consultation with the defence Chambers …
Those involved would have been personally known to each other …
I’ve never been party to a conspiracy theory before – and have generally gone more for ‘cockup ‘ than ‘conspiracy ‘ – but what I’ve laid out about – smells …
One might hope that a good journo would look at this to find the names and build the story – as far as is possible .
How about a National day of protest against the Starmer Stasi court system to celebrate her release?
I think that’s the TR day @ 12 September ?
13th Sept actually
You can tell by googling and getting pages and pages of antifa PR about their almost free buses to London
HUGE amount of nasty rhetoric
#1 Falsely labelling people as fascist is fascistic
#2:If you are marching TO STOP someone else marching that’s fascistic
March against fascism on Saturday 13 September – stop Tommy Robinson
Fascist Tommy Robinson AKA Stephen Yaxley Lennon has been released from prison.
He is calling for “the UK’s biggest free speech festival” on 13 September in London.
The reality is Robinson wants to bring his far right thug supporters onto the streets to spread racist division and Islamophobia.
We have halted his attempts to build a fascist street movement in Britain again and again – but the context is even more dangerous now.
Reform UK’s rise is staggering.
The local elections saw Reform replacing the Tories and vying for Labour strongholds. Farage is setting the agenda on immigration – and Starmer adopting the same rhetoric – is giving confidence to the fascists.
But the far right can be stopped. Last summer, mass antiracist resistance halted the far right riots.
We marched in our tens of thousands to oppose Tommy Robinson in October and February.
But on Saturday 13 September we have to do it again. Join us.
Three ‘Unsafe’ Songs banned by the Government, under the orders of Dame Melanie Dawes of OFCOM.
(1) Keir Starmer is a “Prick in Whitehall”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIhRaI9dzzw
(2) Keir Starmer sings “Back in the EUSSR”: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OB6-nLT-_iLZMWIu8VcrQhjMJ_YH8kM1/view?usp=sharing
(3) Keir Starmer sings “Angie”: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OwIFLJRoCqF5N3p58RszkObBFm6J0Ksf/view?usp=sharing
Em I saw the Sceptic article yesterday
And I checked
The 3 banned songs are not banned
They have since June sat on the new Youtube account of the creator.
Seems he got false complaints about his original channel, so remedied that by removing the 3 videos and reuploaded them to his new channel
https://www.facebook.com/reel/1365144101539826
I cannot speak for any aspect of the video but it looks like the UK and it looks like unacceptable behaviour. I will not be anticipating any arrests and any prosecution would be a waste of time.
Top BBC headline:
UK MP’s pressure Egypt to take in sick and injured children from Gaza.
Only joking. This is the real one:
Bring sick and injured children to UK from Gaza immediately, MPs say
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gmk2yj5e9o
And it gets worse:
‘The letter also calls for children and their families to have the option of claiming asylum, or resettling, in the UK once treatment is completed.’
WHY NOT DEMAND THEY GO TO ANOTHER MUSLIM COUNTRY WHERE THEY WILL FIT IN ?.
Of course the BBC do not tell us WHICH MP’s are demanding this. But then of course they don’t need to. 90% will be non-white or far-Left.
I’m sick to the back teeth of these idiots in government. We are now suffering the inevitable consequences of the mass-immigration scandal.
“WHY NOT DEMAND THEY GO TO ANOTHER MUSLIM COUNTRY WHERE THEY WILL FIT IN ?”
That’s probably why TTK / Pixie think the UK is suitable place. Ha, ha.

This should be raised by all supposed impartial media with all supposed historically learned politicians and then discussed calmly and rationally to a conclusion based on facts.
But it won’t be. Because the answer is self evident.
Except to our media and politicians, who have overseen faith in authority evaporate in a generation.

Performing against Israel gets a lot more likes than performing against meat. These false idiots just move their faux anger to another cause in the spotlight to keep up with the flow and stay in the news.
How do you handle a situation where you are faced with a foe who refuse to fight fair, refuse to honour any human rights, simply stick to a primitive ideology based on hate, are happy to dole out filthy punishment including shooting defenceless women in their vaginas? Yes I’m talking about you despicable toads, Hamas.
I think the end of the despicable reign of the vicious, ultra nasty Japanese in WW2 provides the answer.
You just smash them out of existence.
What is needed is a coordinated exercise by all western nations to go into Gaza and drag these rats out of their holes and eliminate them.
Otherwise this crazy situation will go on for years with untold casualties.
Come on western leaders, do your job…. Rid the World of these tiresome drain rat trash.
If they refuse to act like humans then they lose the right to be considered as such.
This dude deserves a comic book superhero based on him. He should be called ‘Union Jack’ and his frying pan should have a cool name like ‘Mjolnir’ (Thor’s hammer).

I don’t recognise the video still when the embed rendered here with the shouty “TERRIFYING” banner – but what.ever…
The Department of State and the Department of Justice are announcing a reward offer increase of up to $50 million under the Narcotics Rewards Program (NRP) for information leading to the arrest and/or conviction of Nicolás Maduro for violating U.S. narcotics laws.
For over a decade, Maduro has been a leader of Cartel de los Soles, which is responsible for trafficking drugs into the United States. On July 25, 2025, the U.S. Department of the Treasury designated Cartel de Los Soles as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT).

Not BBC but
In Re the bogus asylum fellow who wandered into someone else`s house – and can`t be done ( so they say ) because its a civil offence of trespassing .
So this fellow has more rights than the Firearms Officer of the local constabulary trying to make an appointment to see where your shotguns are secured .
Just listening to Times Radio….a zealously anti-Trump station…..and by extension also anti-J.D Vance.
Vance famously told us we are heading for civilisational suicide…Times sneered at this and suggested that his views and values of Western civilisation and christianity are ‘so old fashioned’. Yeah need to get rid of them and er, replace them…perhaps a ‘Great Replacement’.
Always remarkable how these media types are so naive and have no understanding of the real consequences of what they are promoting…it is very definitely a case of careful what you wish for….and of course once in it will be too late to do anything…there’ll be no reversal.
Even the Guardian way back in 2009 admitted the truth…
‘Europe’s risky experiment’
‘In a week in which the European election results have shown the potency of the anti-immigrant vote in many countries, including Britain, Christopher Caldwell’s contention that immigration has not only changed Europe but revolutionised it has a topical plausibility. Immigration, he says, and above all Muslim immigration, has planted in the heart of a weak and confused civilisation communities, rapidly growing in number, that have already changed Europe to suit their needs and beliefs. And the chances are, he insists, that in the future we will bend to their will rather than that they will bend to ours.
Once Muslim majorities emerge in certain towns and areas, Muslims will demand the right to live not only differently, but also separately, and Europe will lose control, Caldwell believes, of significant chunks of its territory. ‘
Hmmmm…and roll on 2025 when Birmingham becomes a mini-Pakistan and the English flag is banned….perhaps the Israelis have the right solution…just bulldoze whole cities out of existence.
Ignorant, stupid, lying politcians who facilitate Islamisation are the true problem but it is a media that promotes their message and tries to silence and demonise the critics and those, like Vance, who stand up for our own values and beliefs and oppose the colonisation of the West, who are also a major problem as they collaborate with those seeking deliberately to destroy the West and its civilisation.

Emerging from the Boris waves edition
Bozo bakes in Greece – he may be an ancient classicist but if ever there were an ideal candidate for ozempic – rather than the olympic ideal – then it’s former PM Boris Johnson, rather cruelly pictured frontpage of the Daily Star Sunday, flabby fat belly out, wet dog-look hair: …relaxed on the beach, munching a packet of crisps and indulging in some cocktails. – as the Mirror reports on his family holiday: Boris Johnson emerges from the sea after cooling down with a swim on holiday in Greece
Makes a rather jarring change from all those starlets in their skimpy beach cozzies accidentaly bumping into the paparazzi snappers
Johnson fared better on this holiday than some of his previous jaunts. In 2000, Johnson nearly drowned on a break in Scotland. He was almost swept out to sea on a dinghy whilst in the Highlands. – Oh the irony. Watch out for those waves, eh Boris!
Setting sail in an inflatable kayak from Argos, [Disambiguation: Argos: The high street catalogue store acquired by Sainsbury’s in 2016, not the Geek city in the Peloponnese] he found himself in grave danger… “rolling black gulfs of ocean were waiting to wash me down.” Johnson was able to paddle halfway back where he was met by his protection officers who had stripped off and swum out to sea. (Mirror)
You ought to have kept a keen watch out for those Boris waves, eh Boris?
In happier news…
Carrie Johnson looked stunning in a red swimming costume… paradise island of Euboea – also known as Evia.
The mildly conservative Telegraph has previously reported: Why you should follow Boris Johnson to this underrated Greek island. Few Britons have heard of Evia – which makes it all the more remarkable that the former PM is a regular (Telegraph, September 2024)
How come this sudden renewed interest in the has-been Johnson?
Now earning his money as a newspaper columnist and public speaker (Mirror)
Presumably, he faxed this one in this weekend: Ukraine special… The most vomit inducing summit in diplomatic history… Boris Johnson’s verdict… Europe powerlessly looks on as Ukraine’s President summoned to White House – frets the ever-excitable Mail on Sunday – channelling the gung-ho, you and who’s army, Boris.
He’s got form for this repeat outbreak of Putin derangement Russophobia – although the Guardian equivocates: Did Boris Johnson really sabotage peace talks between Russia and Ukraine? The reality is more complicated… These negotiations – held predominantly in Istanbul – have become a focus for critics of the war in the US, who often argue that the west, and particularly then British prime minister, Boris Johnson, sabotaged these negotiations and prevented a successful ceasefire
Dominic Cummings, when recently questioned as how come the now toothless demilitarised Britain – of all nations – went so hardline anti-Russia, explained how at the outbreak of the present war Johnson was beset by polical problems at home and welcomed the distraction of all the foreign bang-bang headlines.
Remind you of any other failing British PMs?
PM ‘ready’ to put troops on ground in Ukraine to protect peace… Sir Keir Starmer has said he is “ready and willing” (BBC)

Hard Times, 1854
Kinnock: Time to scrap the two child cap… He calls for levy on top 1% to lift 600,000 kids out of poverty… Charles Dickens ‘would be furious’ at hardship now faced (Mirror)
Whereas the victorian novelist would presumably not bat an eyelid at mobile phones, the internet, votes for 16-year-olds, trans, gay marriage, mobility scooters…
The exclamation: The Way We Live Now by Anthony Trollope, 1875, seems more appropriate

In other conflict zones: Katie at war with her exes (Mirror)
The front cover of the Guardian on Sunday Observer is a bit like a visit to Tate Modern – you don’t quite understand or believe it’s really art but to some extent have to admire the sheer brass neck – because everyone else seems to accept it…
This morning we have the now familiar notion of a frontpage designed in a manner rock music fans would regard as a concept album than a greatest hits.
The fragrant-looking young lassie Zoe Rogers, in bookish specs, is pictured in a pastural soft focus scene clutching what appears to be a bouquet of wild flowers she has plucked from a meadow and set in an improvised vase – that is in fact a coke can.
So much for: Health Secretary Wes Streeting and Environment Secretary Steve Reed… outline plans to make Britain healthier… slash hospital waiting times… If overweight Brits drank one less fizzy drink a day, it could reduce the obesity epidemic by enough to save the NHS £5 billion a year. (Mirror)
And here comes what YouTube movie critic The Critical Drinker would term “The Message!!”

Russia complicating end to war, Zelensky says as Trump pursues peace deal
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cev28rvzlv1t
The BBC tell us FIVE times that Russia are refusing a ceasefire.
They DON’T tell us anywhere that it’s because Ukraine (and the EU) are insisting that it is ‘unconditional’. And once it starts they will rearm, reinforce and prepare for war again. Putin has given this reason many times but it seems the BBC don’t want us to know that bit.
Bottom line is that the EU want Ukraine and an extremely weak Russia which could possibly be made to collapse and the next government more open to joining the fourth Reich. And they are using Ukranian blood to get it. The actual cause of this war – Ukraine joining NATO – is never even mentioned now.
I’ll be surprised if they don’t try to sabotage these talks like all the others – but it’s much more difficult for them now they don’t have American expertise to do it.
Not reading the BBC take on the Ukraine conflict is better than blood pressure medication.
JohnC, actually, after the fall of the USSR Russia applied to join both the EU and NATO but were turned down. The Military-Industrial Complex (MIC), from whom billionaires and politicians make a lot of money, needed a bogeyman to maintain their profits.
The French voting to leave the EU has to be in there!
