    I hope the disgusting Palestine recognition farce bites him in the arse….. It should! In my eyes it has revealed his true nature as an international EU brownie points digger, we all know what the massive underground Germanic influence in the EU means for the Jewish state…

    No doubt he hopes for a nice high-up sinecure within the nasty European behemoth once he is banished from UK politics which now seems to be inevitable.

    Just checking what the BBC have to say about this assasination by a man living with his transgender partner who was radicalised by the MSM.

    ‘Charlie Kirk is being mourned by right-wing leaders and activists beyond the borders of the United States.’

    Was George Floyd – a career criminal drug dealer high on fentinal who was accidentally choked whilst resisting arrest only ‘mourned by left-wing leaders and activists’ BBC ?. The inference of course being that Charlie does not deserve being mourned by anyone else.

    And we get:
    ‘Maga hats and a sea of red, white and blue – this feels more like a political rally than a memorial’

    From the extreme-Left Sarah Smith. Along with:

    ‘Kirk’s murder has set off a furious debate about free speech in America. He was a passionate advocate of freedom of expression, yet there has been a backlash against those speaking out against Kirk and his views.
    The Trump administration is seeking a crackdown on what it calls the “radical left”, which in turn has prompted accusations of government overreach and claims Kirk’s death is being used as a pretext to intrude on civil liberties.
    Teachers and civil servants have been sacked for things they have said. And one famous TV talk show host – Jimmy Kimmel – was taken off air by his network over his comments about Kirk’s death.’
    Is this really the time to be sniping your own political rhetoric Sarah ?. You are vile and nasty piece of work. Shame on you.

    This entire article is absolutely devoid of any empathy, supporting narrative or sympathy for the assasination of this man who was the polar opposite of George Floyd. It is a sterile report of what is happening. And they are all writing in the same tone (except Sarah who is full-on hate) which means they have been instructed on how to report it. Of course they have – it’s the BBC.

    And I read that 58 democrats voted against having a moments silence of respect for his death. I guarantee you 100% they would have voted FOR that if it were George Floyd.

    Let us not forget they also very nearly did the same to Trump.

    The Left are now terrorists. Plain and simple. With the full support of the BBC. Just like Hamas. The enemy within.

      “A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. (Boris Johnson)

      But it cannot survive treason from within.(Theresa May)

      An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. (Anjem Choudary)

      But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself.(Keir Starmer)

      For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.”

      Marcus Tullius Cicero

      Almost immediately after I head of Charlie Kirk’s death I received a horrible Whattsap message from a friend who is a member of the Conservative Party. It apparently referenced Charlie’s views on gun law. Now I had heard of Charlie a couple of months ago and had appreciated his debating at Oxford and Cambridge. But I wonder about my friend’s message. I suggested she went beyond the BBC and looked on YouTube before she judged Charlie. I don’t know whether it was the BBC which had formed her opinion. If it was the BBC or other MSM it highlights to me the power the MSM still holds.

      The assassination of Charlie Kirk was exactly what they wanted for Trump too. The plan was for us to see him die on stage. For some strange reason CNN decided to cover the rally at Butler Pennsylvania live, when they had never done that before. I wonder who tipped them the wink?

      This is how the game works, your compassion gets weaponised, they put celebrities on TV, crack jokes, tug your heartstrings, make you feel guilty unless you hand over cash then that cash goes straight into the machinery of your replacement.

      They use your decency against you, they don’t care about the poor, they don’t care about the sick, they don’t care about the kids.

      They care about using you as a milk cow; your sympathy, your money, your silence to bankroll their destruction of your nation.”

    “Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s announcement today recognising a Palestinian state is a betrayal of the hostages, a reward for terrorism, a political attack on our greatest ally in the Mideast, and an undermining of the Bible.

    The title deeds of the Land of Israel are not held in Number 10, Downing Street. They are contained in the Holy Word of God. Starmer does not have the authority to carve up Land that God has ordained in an everlasting covenant for the nation of Israel.”

    My student loan doesn’t cover my bills, so I wear my work uniform to lectures
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cly68e6r621o

    So speaks a 2nd year from Northumbria University.
    Which I think used to be Newcastle Poly.

    Back in my day, before the ‘all shall have prizes’ mentality which re-named Polytechnics as Universities, the Polys tended to meet a local need for further education. You’d live at home, do night school, do sandwich courses with a year in industry. You didn’t feel entitled to three years partying and running up huge debts.
    I feel confident about this because I attended one. It wasn’t Oxbridge standard. It didn’t claim to be. It did a particular job, a different one from Oxbridge. But in these days of equality, such differentiation is not allowed, and the great con is the delusion that three years in Nowheresville University gaining a degree in haircare studies will somehow enhance your life chances.

      I felt really bad when interviewing prospective employees where a degree was needed when their degrees was in subjects such as fashion. I remember one clearly, as part of the interview they were asked to write a short paragraph on an easy topic. The interviewee was incapable of starting sentences with a capital letter and every letter ‘I’ had a circle over it, something I probably hadn’t seen since I was 13. She wasn’t the preferred candidate. Several of them, when asked where they thought they’d be in 5 years’ time saw themselves in a position far beyond what their capabilities appeared to be. I was angry, not at them, but at the system. They all probably had enormous debts but were terribly proud of their degrees. But they had been sold a false g-d. I wondered where they would be 5 years later, and if they would have realised that the promise they were sold was well out of their reach.

        Back in my school-leaving days, I was able to join a well-known property institution on the strength of five ‘O’levels. Nowadays, you need loads of ‘A’ Levels, a degree in something or other, and be prepared to spend the rest of your working life chained to out-dated conditions of business, and fork out enormous sums for ‘indemnity’ etc.!

        There were several property associated institutions back then, like auctioneers, land surveyors etc, and the choice was pretty good, but now they’re all lumped in together.

        I remember working for a partner who had the letters, F.A.L.P.A. after his name. It was quite common in the fifties and sixties, because after WW2, there was a requirement to recruit more people into the property and surveying profession, and The Association of Landed Property Agents was formed to do just that. My boss would have been about fifty-five and a real gentleman!

        And back then, anyone who went to university was ‘bright’, while most people just got on with trying to carve a career!

        And to stay on topic, the BBC was a revered and well-followed institution, with figure-head presenters, well-designed and produced programmes, and the British way of life was enshrined in everything they did. In fact the Corporation back then was diametrically opposite to what they get up to now. Every British Citizen was too busy trying to earn enough money to keep the family together, and left wing politics in the BBC was only a twinkle in very few misguided eyes…

            I stay in regular touch with pals from secondary school in the 60s. And honestly? each one of us would have been a shoo in for uni by todays standards – in fact I would say as far as Professor level ! None of us are idiots and it was only by dint of lack of spaces at the local Grammar that we spent our years in the A stream at secondary. One went on to be a chemist, another a petrol chemical engineer (!)., and others in good careers – all by studying in further education. I think I’ve mentioned before on here that I did pass the 11+ but there wasn’t the spaces available in the higher schools.

            It’s always irked that some faceless body in a soulless office decided what future path my 11 year old self would take – by putting my exam paper in the pile destined for secondary school instead of the Grammar.

            Regardless, I’ve had an excellent working life in property – and later the NHS so I can’t grumble – there’s nothing to be gained from what might have been …….. but still …..

A close study of what big people were up to was always the most exciting occupation of youth, but nobody wants to grow up these days and who can blame them? Toys are us. … Time for a return to democracy, individuality, and family. I’ve said my piece. Thank you. {naturalchild.org – john gatto – jan1990}”

          I started a part time law degree at a polytechnic in London – it had pretty high standards – by year 3 it had become a university and the good lecturers were instantly demoralised as money took over -many left i retired . By year 4 it was unrecognisable – the ferals used to use razor blades to cut pages out of the all England law reports – so I knew the course was doomed ….
          The good lecturers knew kids were being put of the course unqualified to complete it – and they’d never have a career in the Law – all the fault of Blair I guess .

    Laughable delusions all around as Starmer and the BBC declare that Hamas will roll over, hand over their weapons and vanish into thin air….

    The BBC…

    ‘One thing is certain: if a Palestinian state does emerge, Hamas will not be running it.’

    Starmer…

    ‘Sir Keir insisted the decision “is not a reward for Hamas” because it means Hamas can have “no future, no role in government, no role in security”.’

    So the Palestinians get an officially sanctioned State…and that was all Hamas wants? It could have had that long ago but instead it continued its war against Israel’s very existence….and listening to Palestinian officials they too declare their wish for Israel not to exist….they’re all suddenly going to recognise Israel’s right to exist? Lol.

    A Palestinian state, whatever that will be, changes nothing unless there are cast-iron guarantees they will stop attacking Israel….and that all those countries that have now recognised a Palestinian state will act to defend Israel and sanction that Palestinian state which must now comply with international laws in regard to how nation states act.

    Something of an irony that Starmer says he is closing down the terrorists in Gaza…by appeasing the fellow travellers in this country….but then governments of all colours in this country have been doing that since Rushdie….bomb goes off here, a head is chopped there and the politicians[and media] rush to assure us that Islam is a religion of peace…and to hand over cash and special privileges to the community to pay them off and of course blames the rest of us for the attacks and that we are the real problem…along with that ‘backlash’.

    Oh yeah….all the problems of creating a Palestinian state?….All because of Israel….

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c930dlxnee4o

    You can see the BBC mindset from this quote…

    ‘For the Palestinians themselves, their longed-for state consists of three parts: East Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip. All were conquered by Israel during the 1967 Six Day War.

    This makes it look like Israel was the aggressor and just marched its army into those areas…rather than the truth that several Muslim armies were mobilising to attack Israel, Israel thrashed them and occupied the areas noted as buffer zones against future attacks by the Muslims….including the Sinai.

      Estimates go as high as £2 TRILLION

      Now Palestine has officially been recognised as a state, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has demanded ‘reparations in accordance with international law’ based on the value of the land which was under British rule between 1917 and 1948.

      This whole thing has been such a disaster”

      …………..

      “A group of Palestinians led by the legendary 91-year-old philanthropist Munib Al Masri has just dropped a 400-page legal hammer on the British government. They’re calling it the “Britain Owes Palestine” campaign, and it’s about time someone dragged the UK kicking and screaming into the 21st century to face its role in manufacturing the Palestine-Israel nightmare culminating in the horrific genocide we are all watching unfold on our screens.”

      The ongoing suffering in Palestine can be directly traced to Britain’s violations of international law between 1917 and 1948.

    UK tells Israel not to retaliate as France prepares to join countries recognising Palestinian state
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cpw1qkyke4nt

    Hard-Left Yvette Cooper telling Israel what to do and the BBC giving it serious credit. How utterly ridiculous.

    The headline should be ‘UK ASKS Israel not to retaliate’ there BBC.

    And Israel reply ‘Get f*cked you terrorist supporters’.

    This is a ridiculous move by our government. Hamas don’t want a Palestinian state. They want the people of Israel dead and this will just help them do it.

    I thought ‘now that TTK has solved the Palestine situation’ we could relocate all the dinghy boys to Palestine.

    They’ve lost so many people, tens of thousands according to the bbbc, surely they would welcome some new blood, after all, the migrants are 99% Muslim so, being the religion of peace, integration would be no problem.

    I then found a flaw in this solution.
    The dinghy boys are almost all men but, according to the bbbc, every casualty in Palestine is either wimmin or children (plus anybody who happens to be in a hospital as the Israelis carpet bomb them continuously)
    It’s wimmin they need not the tens of thousands of brave lads fleeing for their lives from France so it’s a ‘no go’

        We have developed the high impact actions in this plan to be intersectional. This recognises that people have complex and multiple identities, and that multiple forms of inequality or disadvantage sometimes combine to create obstacles that cannot be addressed through the lens of a single characteristic in isolation[2].

        NHS People Plan 2020

        The most recent NHS diversity reports, like the NHS Workforce Race Equality Standard (WRES) 2024 data analysis report from June 2025, show that the percentage of Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) staff in the NHS has been steadily increasing, reaching 28.6% of the workforce in March 2024.

    REPARATIONS, NOW THATS A GOOD IDEA…..

    I couldn’t help but smile to hear the almost immediate response to our leaders idea of recognising Palestine as a state….Yes , of course …was ,we want your money for past errors, alleged or otherwise. Zillions and zillions of pounds,dollars, whatever..

    Surely it’s the “League of nations” and or the UN that the Palestinians should be after, the British only had the mandate because everybody else left the room.

    Anyway let’s not get bogged down with facts as that is rarely helpful…….Let’s move into the new electronic age and embrace funding differently. Governments never get this funding thing right. Surely what we need is a Palestine “go fund me” page and all those who feel strongly enough about it ,can put something towards this interesting cause.

    All those people, the “something,something, to the sea” marchers can contribute and feel great about themselves.

    If they did I would feel great too. I’m confident zillions would be raised overnight..

    In a report broadcast on BBC One’s 10pm bulletin, Smith said: “Mr Kirk built a huge and devoted following for his far-Right views and his eagerness to debate with opponents.”’

    Of course it’s just business as normal as straight after his death the BBC decided he was a ‘conservative with controversial messages’

    and an extremist ‘firebrand’ [to just call him a mere firebrand would not recognise how extreme he was] and polarising figure…

    ‘To call him a firebrand would be somewhat understating the case…Kirk’s evangelical Christian religion and family were front and centre in his politics, and he’s seen as both the future of conservative activism and a highly polarising figure.’’

    Think the BBC guidelines need updating…how much longer can they keep calling Israelis far-right genocidal war criminals and Hamas harmless gunmen or fighters?

    They also need to define ‘far-right’ as I think we need to know exactly what qualifies you for this mark of distinction so easily cast upon you by the BBC.

      Government ministers, newspaper columnists, ordinary people – they’re all asking why the BBC doesn’t say the Hamas gunmen who carried out appalling atrocities in southern Israel are terrorists.

      The answer goes right back to the BBC’s founding principles.

      But this doesn’t mean that we should start saying that the organisation whose supporters have carried them out is a terrorist organisation, because that would mean we were abandoning our duty to stay objective.

      We don’t take sides. We don’t use loaded words like “evil” or “cowardly”. We don’t talk about “terrorists”.

    Can’t have the English defending their own lands and being proud of being English can we?

    This comment in the introduction reveals the intent behind the programme….as always to undermine the idea of ‘England’ and ‘Englishness’….it’s all a myth…and told by the wrong people…we at the BBC will invent a whole new history for you.

    ‘In a portal to the past, she takes us inside the words and moments these poems capture, with new perspectives on how England has dreamed itself into existence – and who gets to tell its story. ‘

    More thoughts on comrade Sarah smith – from the DT – Charlie Kirk was ‘far right ‘ … she said –

    STARTS The BBC’s North America editor is facing criticism for describing Charlie Kirk as “far-Right”.

    Sarah Smith was reporting from Kirk’s memorial service in Arizona on Sunday, where Donald Trump addressed more than 60,000 people mourning the conservative influencer.

    In a report broadcast on BBC One’s 10pm bulletin, Smith said: “Mr Kirk built a huge and devoted following for his far-Right views and his eagerness to debate with opponents.”

    Liz Truss, the former prime minister, responded on social media: “The BBC and Sarah Smith are utterly disgraceful. She should have her White House press pass rescinded. And come 2029 the whole organisation should be defunded.”

    Ms Truss highlighted the comments to Karoline Leavitt, the White House press secretary.

    The BBC’s online coverage of the memorial service did not use the term “far-Right”, instead referring to Kirk as a “conservative activist” with a “Right-wing Christian world-view”.

    In her report on Kirk’s assassination, Smith said: “His killing has set off a furious argument about freedom of speech in America. The same people who have come to celebrate Kirk’s commitment to freedom of expression are threatening to crack down on Left-wing groups and activists.”

    ‘Shallow understanding’

    Referring to Mr Trump’s assertion that the memorial would be “a time of healing”, the editor added: “There was no healing when late-night TV host Jimmy Kimmel was sacked over comments made about Mr Kirk.”

    ABC, the American broadcasting company, took Mr Kimmel’s late-night talk show off the air after he accused the “Maga gang” of trying to score political points from Kirk’s murder.

    Ms Truss was one of many social media users to condemn Smith’s choice of language. Dr Adrian Hilton, an academic at the University of Buckinghamshire, said: “Kirk’s views would be shared by millions. It’s such a shallow understanding of the political Right.”

    Smith, the daughter of John Smith, the late Labour Party leader, was appointed to the North America post in 2021.

    She was previously the BBC’s Scotland editor, and she said she felt relieved to leave the UK after enduring years of misogynistic “bile and hatred” while covering Scottish politics.

    The BBC declined to say that Smith was in the wrong, but suggested that they did not condone her choice of language.

    A spokesperson said: “As you’ll see from our reporting, our standard description of Charlie Kirk is that of ‘Right-wing activist’.”

    At Sunday’s memorial service, Mr Trump hailed Kirk as “a giant of his generation”.

    Kirk was “heinously murdered by a radicalised, cold-blooded monster for speaking the truth that was in his heart,” the president said. “He was assassinated because he lived bravely, he lived boldly and he argued brilliantly.”

    Kirk was shot on Sept 10 while he was speaking at Utah Valley University.

    He was the co-founder of Turning Point USA, and was credited with helping to secure Mr Trump’s election victory by galvanising the youth vote.

    His podcasts and public appearances were provocative and he was stridently opposed to abortion – saying that if his 10-year-old daughter were to become pregnant through rape, he would not allow a termination – and gun control. He made a number of inflammatory statements about race but insisted that he was not racist. ENDS – defund the BBC – banish it from the US.

    As usual when a pattern emerges the BBC always show their motives.

    The can see that Starmer and his shambles of a government are losing support at a staggering rate. They also realise that Reform are likely to benefit from this.

    So the BBC answer us to try to elevate Ed and his party in a desperate attempt to divert people away from Reform.
