      I put Starmer at the bottom of my respect pile the moment I saw him doing the juvenile down-with-the-kiddies taking the knee crap. In that instant I understood exactly what this man is and how hollow.

      Nothing he has done since has in the slightest changed my opinion of him.

    “I’m pleased to say i was able to vote for the Labour deputy leader so I’m delighted my choice won.
    I thought she would do the most damage to
    @Keir_Starmer

    I’m not even a Labour voter it’s just because I’m in a Union who wanted me to vote for Phillipson so I did the opposite and voted for
    Lucy Powell in the hope she will bring down Starmer.
    Starmer previously sacked Powell from the Cabinet she’s highly critical of him.
    Hopefully she will continue to snipe at his leadership and force a general election then we can kick all of these Labour Party muppets out of office forever.”

    Caerphilly, a Socialist stronghold were only one voter in 18 voted Labour. Out of an electorate of 66,895 only 3,713 or 5.55% voted Labour in the Caerphilly by-election. Labour were beaten by Plaid Cymru, a left-wing Welsh Nationalist Socialist Workers Party (Plaid Gweithwyr Sosialaidd Genedlaethol Cymru), who beat Reform UK into second place. Reform UK, a right-wing British Unionist Party, supported individual liberty, local & national democracy, freedom and free speech, but was tainted by association with the hated Conservative Party.

    The Starmerfuhrer is to get the Islamic run Home Office to introduce the Britkarte. The Britkarte, will be a compulsory ID Card to be used to transform our lives by stamping out Islamophobia within the Jewish community. The Starmerfuhrer says that the additional police assets would be deployed immediately to stamp out fear of Islam after the Starmerfuhrer recognised Palestine.

    The first country to issue compulsory ID cards was Nasty Germany, which introduced mandatory identity cards (the Kennkarte) via a decree on 22 July 1938. The exact decree is “Verordnung über Kennkarten” issued on 22 July 1938. Public announcements defining who would be required to carry IDs followed on 23 July 1938. The requirement for Jewish citizens to apply for their Kennkarte was set to be fulfilled by 31 December 1938. The goal was control, surveillance, and population tracking, especially to identify Jews and Kenneth.

      For a glimpse of the future, consider the (for the moment) bizarre circumstances of the recent Davis Cup First Round matches in Sweden. They had been scheduled long ago to be played in the Baltiska Hallen stadium in Malmö. Who knew which team the Swedes would draw? Could have been Chile, could have been Serbia. Alas, it was Israel.”

    We should all glorify Starmer’s plans to raise income tax!

    Millions of illegals will never have to pay the tax, millions of benefit cheats likewise, millions of the feckless will never pay anything!

    It’s a socialist paradise, as all the white-van men, their scaffolders’ wives, the small builders, the wasp-nest obliterators, the housebuilders, the small private companies being hounded by the Inland Revenue for paltry sums, will stump up the cash to pay for these wasters in society.

    Beeboids luxuriate in ivory towers of disbelief in any financial position other than the money tree they shelter under. They’re inviolable, paid three times more than local authority nonentities, more than senior members of ‘government’, (an unusual word which is misunderstood these days), and their orders are sent daily from a corrupt and failing parade of pompous useless idiots in Mohammed Street.

    “It is twenty years since the highly-acclaimed award-winning Australian journalist Jill Singer furiously denounced me on the ABC for suggesting that Malmö was a preview of Sweden’s future. I invited Jill and her telly crew to come and walk the walk with me, all expenses paid, and judge for herself. She declined, and has since died. But, on my crepuscular saunter in what is now Sweden’s “youngest” city (half the population under thirty-five: hmm, I wonder why that is), demography marches on. So how’s that going? Well…

    Birmingham is England’s second city, except for the tiny detail that it is no longer English: by 2021, 43.5 per cent of Brum’s under-eighteens were Muslim. I love the way befuddled Brit commentators still write about “the police” as if it’s Dixon of Dock Green and the Z-Cars boys showing up to arrest you for your Tweet. Who do you think staffs your constabulary? The old cliché used to be that you knew you were getting old when you noticed the policemen were younger than you. Now you know you’re getting old when you notice the policemen are more Muslim than you.

    Earlier today (Saturday) on the Daily Mail website the headline was that the police were closing in on the wrongly released prisoner. I didn’t believe it. My thoughts appeared to be confirmed this evening as GBNews showed a senior policeman giving a statement where he pleaded with the man to give himself up. I thin the policeman in question must have drawn the short straw. I understand that the Ethopian required translaters at his trial – so wherever he is, is he likely to be watching the tv in English? And even if he was watching the BBC news, would he think, ‘that nice policeman has asked me to give myself in – I must go to a clean(?) warm police station and hand myself in?’

    I presume that it wasn’t the police to blame for his release, but asking him to hand himself in just made the police look ridiculous (I would be pleased to be proved wrong on thtis).

    This case of the “wrongly released” illegal immigrant sex offender goes from bad to the bloody ridiculous…

    It now appears that not only did these gimps wrongly release Hadush Kebatu, but when he attempted to return to prison (several times) they refused him entry and sent him to the nearest railway station. I mean, FFS!

    It is believed that Kebatu is now “somewhere in London”. Oh great, no problem finding him…piece of cake…A black criminal at large on the streets of London.

    ‘I am not done’ – Kamala Harris tells BBC she may run for president again
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2n7k2veywo

    The most apalling of complimentary promotional pieces from the vile Keunssberg. Like all Lefties, that woman has no shame whatsoever about what she does. She has no moral compass. She is a full-on left-wing activist.

    Lets see what the BBC write about Trump here. But – as usual – it’s just what someone else said so they print it. No right to reply or anything like that needed.’Speaking to Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, Harris also turned her fire on her former rival, branding Trump a “tyrant”, and said warnings she made about him on the campaign trail had been proved right.’

    ‘Harris also said she believed predictions she made about Donald Trump behaving as a fascist and running an authoritarian government had come true.’

    “There are many… that have capitulated since day one, who are bending the knee at the foot of a tyrant, I believe for many reasons, including they want to be next to power, because they want to perhaps have a merger approved or avoid an investigation.”
    A simply outrageous thing to print. Did she provide any evidence BBC ?.

    ‘As the Democratic party searches for answers about Republican Donald Trump’s decisive victory one year ago, much of the blame has been directed at former President Joe Biden for not standing down sooner.’

    Just look at this:

    ‘ I pressed Harris several times on whether she ought to have urged Biden to make way for her sooner.

    How much did she really know about his health? And a question that may haunt her – whether she would be president now, not Donald Trump, if Biden had withdrawn earlier?

    The answer is plainly, unknowable – the great “if” that could have changed the fate of America.’

    No mention of course how the MSM – BBC most definitely included – kept Biden in the race because they totally and shamelessly ignored his very clear health condition. Now the BBC suggest she would have won if he stepped down earlier. Just unbelievable.

    This complete and utter bullshit interview only serves to prove one thing : the extreme bias of Kuenssberg and the BBC.

    Here she is interviewing Harris:

    Another one from Charlie Kirk.

    I searched for this on google and the efforts of the Left to discredit it are hilarious. Those people start with the conclusion they want then make up arguments to support it. Exactly like Panorama.

    ‘DEI is good, actually, because by making the effort to look in places you might not normally look, you’re likely to find highly-qualified candidates that you might have missed otherwise.’
    I would say very UNLIKELY. But the real problem with it is when you employ them anyway based on skin colour.

    We’ve seen what happens when you force DEI into recruitment by the absolutely dire output from the BBC since they started it. The flagship ‘Dr Who’ being the most glaringly obvious example.

      London’s “night czar” Amy Lamé is to stand down from her role after eight years.

      Lamé, who will quit at the end of the month, said she felt it was the right time to move on, adding that it had been “a real privilege to serve Londoners”.

      The role was created by London Mayor Sadiq Khan following his election in 2016. He and Lamé – whose salary rose to £132,846 this year – have faced questions about her record in boosting London’s nightlife.

    Disgraced Oxford Union president ‘clinging on’ to power

    I was just reading about this utter farce which is a direct consequence of woke mentality when I came across a BBC article with the words ‘influential right wing activist’. When someone is labelled like that, it instantly creates a mental impression of bias, thus discrediting them.

    So I searched google for ‘influential right wing activist BBC’. I got lots of hits and a multitude of people in various BBC articles.

    Then I searched for ‘influential left wing activist BBC’. Just two. And they were right-wing : Lawrence Fox and Charlie Kirk.

    Another of the BBC’s dirty tricks. It’s clear they have been instructed NOT to refer to Lefties as ‘activists’ – but to do so freely for anyone on the Right.

    The extreme BBC bias is real for anyone who actually looks for it. Those who are happy with the bias ignore it because they too are shameless hypocrites.

        Some Lefties really believe the BBC is biased to the Right.

        Some time ago I realised why : they are convinced that THEIR leftist view is what ‘normal’ people should think. So if your opinion is not as far Left as theirs, they think you are biased to the Right.

        I’ve seen them say the BBC is right-wing biased because they actually report things about Farage when the Left think he should not be given ANY coverage.

        Same with Gaza : I’ve seen them claim the BBC are biased towards Israel because they don’t condemn Israel and report their attacks as much as they think they should.

        They are utterly brainwashed by their ideology and group-think. They have lost all sense of logic and reason.

          The Vision of the Anointed (1995) is a book by economist and political columnist Thomas Sowell which brands people and organizations that he calls “the anointed” as “promoters of a worldview concocted out of fantasy impervious to any real-world considerations”.[1] Sowell asserts that these thinkers, writers, and activists continue to be revered even in the face of evidence disproving their positions.

          Sowell argues that American thought is dominated by a “prevailing vision” which seals itself off from any empirical evidence that is inconsistent with that vision.

      A perfect example of BBC bias on this mornings news. Interviewing an Ex Conservative Legal chap.

      The Conservative was trying to shine a spotlight on the shambolic situation of the migrant sex offender “accidentally” released from prison.

      BBC chappie did his best to turn the tables by referring to prisoners escaping during the Tory government.

      There is a massive difference between a prisoner managing to escape and a prisoner literally being shown the way out by prison staff.

      Nevertheless the BBC interviewer clearly went straight into Labour defence mode. It is so obvious where the alliance of most BBC staff lies, there is no way I can accept them as unbiased.

        I put ‘Left wing activist BBC’ in and the top two results are about right-wing activists.

        Look at the wording they use for this one:
        ‘Proud Boys and antifa: When a right-wing activist met a left-wing anti-fascist’
        https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-47332054

        ‘Since the election of Donald Trump, extreme right-wing groups and left-wing activists have battled on American streets.’

        I’ve seen the videos of Antifa and they are nasty b@stards. There’s a reason Trump considers them terrorists. But I suppose that is normal for a left-wing activist so they don’t need the term ‘extreme’. The extreme ones assasinate people.

        This is how the BBC portray them both:

        ‘Luis, nervous and on edge, enters wearing sunglasses and a hat. Rob is wide-eyed and, it seems, intent on at least a verbal confrontation.’

        Can you guess who is ‘extreme-right’ ?.

        Lets continue:
        ‘Luis, who is in his mid-40s, is talkative and polite.’

        This is what they write about Rob:
        ‘He’s a big guy – tall, stocky and clearly someone you would not want to challenge in a fight. He’s 46, but looks older.’
        “One of the tenets is we’re never supposed to hit first,” he tells me. “Some guys like to fight. Some guys don’t.”
        ‘Rob is in the first category: “I get very violent in fights. I’m one of the more violent because I don’t like to fight for very long, and I want to get it done.’

        Of course Rob is the nasty extreme-Right activist and Luis is the gentle left-wing activist.

        Shame they couldn’t find the Antifa guy who spat in the ICE man’s face. Or maybe they did but he didn’t fit the profile the BBC wanted so they kept looking. Luis could also easily be faked to fit the part : The BBC have no scruples about doing that.

    I’ve noticed many times that when I use google AI to research anything about politics, I very often get a patronising ‘Left wing lecture’ paragraph at the end to guide me in ‘the right way of thinking’ which is nothing to do with what I asked whatsoever.

    Someone has programmed it to do that.

    The other bizarre thing is how it sometimes gives me the wrong answer. Then – when confronted – it says ‘Oh yes, I was wrong. Here is the right answer’. As a software engineer who understands computers, that is a very disconcerting thing to see.

      “Yes I was wrong” (but I know the correct answer) is definitely concerning as a query reply from an expert system (using the old terminology) – I’ve found the errors delivered with vehemence bordering on a presumption of omniscience from general purpose inference engines most off-putting – particularly when the wrong answer is plainly a consequence of human interference – which is why I left ChatGPT behind ages ago for systems that deliver more focused, honest inference with plain elaborated reasoning.

      Whenever he plays stupid, it’s because he’s trying to trick the questioner into mentioning the words Pakistani or Muslim, so Khan can then accuse them of being racist, homophobic etc.

          It was clear that Sunka saw all this coming, and hastily called an election to escape the problems, but TTK, even after fourteen years, still didn’t have a clue, and he has just made everything much, much worse.

          It was exasperating to see one of the posts here recently, counting the numbers and names of leftie millionaires – that sticks in my craw, and even on a pension which is a bit more than what some poor souls are getting, Thieves is certainly going to take more of that from everyone, and spend it on illegals via councils’ contributions.

          The notion that Plaid won Caerphilly, well over Reform is being spouted as the latter’s peaking, but just wait until May, when there’ll be hardly a Labour seat anywhere, and the 30% turnout for many more citizens will be more than doubled to rid the UK of these really unpleasant, nasty party relabourites.

    Now how’d you like the sound of having all yer Digital ID details on yer phone?

    I lost thousands of photos when my phone crashed. Now I print them out for my daughter. As Stephen Buffardi was transferring photos to his new phone, the progress bar reached halfway – then it crashed. Thousands of pictures with friends and family, including early dates with his now wife, were lost forever. (BBC)

    ‘I watched my stolen phone head to London, Dubai and China.’ Fenella Rawling had her mobile stolen in Cambridge… It happens in a heartbeat… “It’s always on an electric bike because they can get away so quickly. They’re usually all dressed in black with balaclavas and hoods on.”…The whirr of a bike, the brush of a sleeve, and in seconds your whole digital life can be compromised. The pattern of shock and disbelief happens hundreds of times a day on British streets. The impact of phone theft is often more than financial. (BBC)

    I’ve a simple question for HM Prison Service re: A migrant sex offender mistakenly released from an Essex prison was last seen in east London on Friday evening… picked up on CCTV at a library in Dalston Square around two hours earlier wearing a prison-issue grey tracksuit and carrying a white bag with pictures of avocados on it. (BBC)

    Avocados, eh! I guess that’s pretty distinctive. Easy to spot. Then why the heck aren’t convicts wearing prison issue grey track suits… with flippin’ arrows on them? So we know they’re convicts.

    In a week when: King and Pope make history by praying side by side (BBC)

    Whereas: Lord Dannatt: Troubles cases put old soldiers under huge pressure; there must be an alternative. He told BBC Radio 4… that continuing to litigate events “puts very old soldiers under huge pressure”. (Forces News)

    However, the Star on Sunday can reveal: Exclusive: Shocking increase in UK troops accused of flashing… flashers or peeping Toms has soared by 300% in the past year

    The Star gets to publish the best headline of the day: Privates on parade

    Meanwhile the very gungho Express (formerly but apparently no longer ‘United with the people of Ukraine’ – despite: Tusk: Kyiv to fight on for years (Times) – but we digress… The Sunday Express reflects on long past glories: The greatest SAS mission told at last – I hope all the lads in the regiment kept their strides pulled up at all times.

    I’m inevitably put in mind of that classic scene from the comic movie Carry On Up the Khyber with the Scots soldiers lifting up their kilts so as to frighten the native tribesmen.

    Come to think of it… It was filmed in Snowdonia and Pinewood studios back in 1968 – they could shoot it almost anywhere in Britain these days and it would look pretty much like the Khyber Pass and have all the local colour of that war-torn region between Pakistan and Afghanistan: 90% of councils to house migrants by end of year… Unemployed male migrants will be living “at taxpayers’ expense in communities across the country”… as ministers ramp up efforts to close migrant hotels… Home Office needs to find “dispersal accommodation” for more than 66,000 (Sunday Express)

    They may all be in tracksuits, all black or sometimes grey – but the escaped sex offenders among them will tend to be the ones with the avocados pictured on their bags.

    I read that Sarah Pochin has apologised for stating the obvious.
    She mentioned that black and Asians made up 75% of our adverts.
    (Blacks make up 3% of the population)

    We all see that every white woman has a black husband.
    The only white men on are when they need someone to appear stupid.

    She should not have apologised.

    When I see such adverts it puts me off whatever product is being advertised. It seems they are focussed on DEI rather than how good the product is and I actively avoid this product.
    It would be interesting to know if other people feel that way.

    I’m the same with tv programmes.
    When I see the cast and it’s a United Nations name list I assume the actors are there for box ticking and not for quality.
    It’s also true that you can guess who the goodies are (all the DEI lot) and who the baddie is (the white male) so it’s pointless watching.
    I watch more and more older stuff such as Minder, Twin Peaks and The Sweeney. Being old I can enjoy them again every 10 years or so.

    By the way, we all know the lefties corrupt language using words like ‘progressive’ instead of something like ‘divisive’
    Here’s a suggestion for them, instead of ‘grooming gangs’ which they use for child rape gangs, why not use ‘Love in’ or ‘International friendship activities’

      Yeah, I think you got the decades wrong, Mr Streeting. Try the 1930s and 1940s instead: the Nazis were trailblazers in using racism and racial stereotypes in advertising to depict the sorts of people they wanted and did not want in their society. You and your cohorts might be coming at it from a slightly different angle, but the methods and intent are exactly the same and can lead to similar consequences.

      When it became more obvious that more black people were being used in adverts, the explanation was that black people didn’t identify with white only people in an advert, so the adverts didn’t ‘work’ for them. Using that argument the Chinese people or people from the Indian subcontinent must be disenfranchised and left in the blissful knowledge that their decisions to buy anything is removed from advertising.
