The BBC will do all it can to distract from the upcoming legal action by President Trump . Plenty of attacks on Reform and Nigel Farage as well as every ‘leak ‘ of the budget .Then – of course – it will pretend that the country still ‘does ‘Christmas …

    Goal hanging pays off. Is this three in a row?

    The BBC is highly corrupt. Corrupt to its own rotten core. Over staffed, over here and let us make it over. Defund the BBC! Cancel your TV licence as I did over 20 years ago. April 2005 was the date when I had to renew.

    The BBC is biased as an article/letter/or e-mail made clear. I forget the name of the man who wrote it. The BBC is biased against President Trump, biased against Israel and biased against anything of a Conservative nature, such as Reform led by Nigel Farage. The BBC supports this corrupt Socialist Government.

    The BBC reneges on its commitment to make iPlayer available to those who want to watch ‘catch-up TV’. The BBC are a disgrace!

      TOADY Watch #1 – Passing on the ‘he says’ with some delight …

      Apparently a fellow high school pupil of Nigel Farage has ‘gone public’ with his comments about what Nigel said about Jews and Hitler. Needless to say, they were repeated with relish by Amol or Emma as part of the TOADY’s team first look at the papers. They are all over the MSM (print editions) today.

    There is in fact a viewable facebook post:

    Imagine one of the main arterial roads into London, in most places 2 lanes in either direction. For some years a large chunk of the Finchley Road has been 20mph. Recently the mayor (should he have capital letters? No, he doesn’t deserve it) decided he needs more bus lanes. He chose to make half the road in Finchley (it changes its name so many times) parking and a bus lane, meaning that as I drive north, I have to move across to the right ie what used to be the space for cars coming in the opposite direction, leaving one lane for the opposite cars. Turning left is a nightmare as I am not sure when I can move across the parking and bus lanes….and if there are pedestrians, the nightmare grows, as they must have priority according to the Highway Code. I wonder what the true chaos was or the real number of accidents because after 3 months and a large amount of money, the mayor and Barnet Council are putting the road back to how it was. I have never heard the mayor admit he was wrong before. We know he won’t answer a single question Susan Hall asks him. I hope the BBC takes it up. (Fat chance).

      Deborah – there is some Road Agency which is allowing councils to reduce the widths of roads so that cyclists cannot be overtaken . This one may be the final straw with more and more seriously injured in road rage attacks – a bit of Darwinianism in action …

      “Apparently, some twenty-five per cent of the Internet was inaccessible for much of the day – including (depending where you were) significant parts of the Steyn empire. Get used to it. A few years hence, “surfing the net” is going to be like switching on your kitchen light in Baghdad outside the Green Zone. This will be because China and other hostile powers will enjoy messing with us just to probe our strengths and weaknesses. But it will also be because the west’s own governments will appreciate the advantages of a more conditional Internet. Let us say that, oh, multiple schoolgirls get stabbed in Southport or Dublin. Or another couple of French schoolteachers are beheaded by their students. Or two German Christmas markets get mown down on the same day. Just in case some intemperate Lucy Connolly types are tempted to weigh in, would it not be in everyone’s interest for social media to be mysteriously afflicted by a Distributed Denial of Service?”

        This might be of interest to some of us. it was NOT an accident but a TEST to turn OFF the internet. The company affected was called ‘CLOUDFARE’ which just happens to serve a large portion of ‘Social Media Pages’. A long time ago it was impossible to ‘turn off’ the internet (as it was designed to survive a nuclear war), but we live in strange times post COVID and nothing is real.

        For example: I have just signed a PETITION on the Digital ID card roll out that they are forcing on us. We really are in George Orwell territory now, and why the BBC soon will be at the centre of spin.
        Petition reads:

        Stop the Digital ID — Protect Freedom and Privacy
        A new power grab is underway — and this time it’s digital.

        Your country’s government, backed by global institutions like the UN, the World Bank, and the Gates Foundation, is building a Digital ID that will decide who can work, travel, bank, or even speak: the Digital ID.

        Behind polished slogans like “digital transformation,” “innovation,” and “security” sits the groundwork for total control.

        We’re already seeing how this plays out.

        In the United Kingdom, the Prime Minister has signaled plans that make Digital ID the gateway to jobs, benefits, and public services.

        (a) In the European Union, eIDAS 2.0 will require a “European Digital Identity Wallet” by 2026 — tying IDs, tax data, health records, and payments into a government-controlled app.

        (b) In Canada, a federal Digital Identity program, built with major banks, is linking IDs to financial services — granting near-total visibility into how citizens spend, travel, and communicate.

        (c) In Mexico, a biometric CURP is already law, storing fingerprints, facial scans, and digital signatures in a centralized national database.

        (d) And across Latin America and Africa, the UN and World Bank’s “50-in-5” Digital ID plan aims to roll out these same systems in 50 countries by 2028—tracking every person from birth to death.

        Different countries. Same blueprint.”

        And of course, the usual bandits are involved. SOROS, GATES, UN and the net zero zealots and media outlets asked to help push the ‘climate emergency’ message. STARMER is a big fan of the WEF (which wants us to own nothing, rent all, eat Vegan and pay all money as Carbon Credits). This is all too REAL and worrying. Please sign: it will be ignored, but like the’ BBC’ at some point there will be a voter reckoning and a change of government. But then who knows whats next?. Pavement tax? TV License compulsory that you must watch BBC 15 hours per week to gain your Carbon Credits? No jobs. All on benefits or hired to work shifts for the state. The Big State.

      “But that’s off. Even though Lucy Connolly has served the sentence imposed by Birmingham Crown Court, I learn from the indispensable Conservative Woman website that the poor woman has since been placed under MAPPA – “Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements”. If you’re wondering what that means, well, let us go to the UK government’s own sodding website. The purpose of MAPPA is to “assess and manage the risks posed by sexual and violent offenders”.

      I was not hitherto aware that Mrs Connolly was a “sexual and violent offender”, but presumably Keir Starmer did not just pull that determination out of some Ukrainian rent-boy’s arse.”

    Two Ukrainians working for Russia behind rail sabotage, Polish PM says

    I trust Tusk about as far as I could throw him while he was carrying a large anvil – so I scanned this BBC report for any other proof of what he said and there is none. Instead Tusk is spouting rhetoric more like Zelensky.

    Amazing isn’t it. When Trump or anyone else says something the BBC don’t like, they always add ‘without providing evidence’. But when it does match the agenda, it is printed as if someone is relating facts.

    I wonder what’s going on with this sudden extreme propaganda which Sarah Rainsford was so much on board with her effort the other day on this story. Ukraine are struggling a lot now in the war and I get the distinct impression we are at the start of a coordinated campaign to justify the EU (and us) getting more involved in some way.

    And no doubt they will push the idiot Starmer to the front of the stage again to suggest the EU is our friend and our future.

      Beeboids have always been able to stamp all over weak PMs since Maggie left, and of course, gave Blair an easy ride, although Brown gave them (and the rest of us), a headache when he was clearly out of his depth as leader and the UK started to tank…

      Since then, they’ve taken little notice of any of the rules they should abide by, and the old-style ‘research, definition and proper presentation of unbiased facts’ ethic has gone out of the window, to be replaced with bland, boring edicts supplied directly from the sort of ‘leaders’ this country doesn’t have any more.

      When a real leader appears – in the form of President Trump, the beeboid instinct is now to hide away, popping out to poke insults at the man from a safe distance, then scuttle back into hiding, and squealing ‘whaaaaaaaaaah’, when they’re caught out in clear lies.

      Can anyone imagine decent bBC people like Robin Day doing this sort of thing?

    Predictions of the death of the BBC are greatly exaggerated. There will no political action against it by any of the established parties, whilst if it needs a subsidy to pay any fine it will certainly get one. Only two connected events can possibly lead to the demise of the BBC and both are in the hands of the British people.
    Firstly ,if the dozy Brits , I’m getting increasingly exasperated with my fellow country men and women, could wake up and cancel their DD for the Licence Fee. But it will need three or four million plus cancellations to bring down the BBC which is a remote possibility to say the least.
    Secondly, if we elect a Reform government who once in power will be able to defeat the BBC even if it is only by decriminalising non payment of the LF rather than direct abolition.

      Only a couple of months ago, a friend turned to me and said, ‘why don’t you believe anything on the BBC?’ She added that the same story was on Channel 4 and ITV. I decided in the spirit of friendship not to argue. But I was with her and a couple of friends two nights ango and was able to mention the BBC. I just said she could now see why I never believed the BBC. She had been ‘shocked’ at what was reported. I explained that after years of ‘misreporting’ events related to Israel, I wasn’t. The other two friends started to agree they were pleased the BBC were being sued by Trump. Set her off on TDS. She hasn’t learnt, never to believe anything she hears on the BBC about Trump.

        In a report about African Penguins and why their numbers are in decline we said conservationists say their natural habitats are being hit by rising tides caused by climate change. While studies show climate change is having an impact on penguin numbers, it is because of rising sea temperatures affecting fish stocks, rather than rising sea levels. Other factors include commercial fishing practices, which are making it more difficult for African Penguins to find enough to eat and survive. We apologise for the error.

    Release of Epstein files awaits Trump’s signoff after clearing Congress
    https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdxr1r34ev9o

    I find it hilarious and pathetic in equal measures how the BBC have suddenly become so interested in Epstein after the Democrats have tried to use him against Trump.

    The BBC are like spiteful children. You cannot trust a single thing they do to be for the ‘right reason’ any more. Things simply cannot continue like this.

    One thing has become clear : Trump knew Epstein but ditched him as soon as he knew what he was and then they were enemies. Lets see how often Trumps name STILL comes up in the reports from the BBC – even though others (like Clinton) are far, far more guilty.

    I was reading that Epstein donated far more to the Democrats than the Republicans. I searched it on Google and found:

    Democratic Recipients: Received over $147,000 in donations.
    Republican Recipients: Received over $18,000 in donations.

    With Chuck Shamer no less apparently getting the most.

    Something the BBC have decided I don’t need to know despite it being extremely relevant.

      But the BBC and the rest of the likeminded Legacy Media will exaggerate the slightest hint that Trump was involved, even record showing that he was in the same city , New York, at the same time as Epstein will be enough for them to condemn him and try to convince voters that he ought to suffer cancellation like Andrew Windsor . No doubt it will form the basis of yet another impeachment should the Dems win the mid terms.
      Mind you the Legacy Media might have to tread a bit more carefully now that Trump has demonstrated that they can’t get away with blatant lying unscathed.

    Apologies, because this has nothing to do with the BBC, it’s just a rather startling “inter-cultural” experience we had about 6 weeks ago…

    My old mate Derek lives on a pretty gruesome estate in “vibrant” south east London. For the sake of brevity I won’t go into all the details, but Delboy has been housebound for nearly 2 years. This particular Saturday afternoon I was visiting with my little dog Huey.

    Anyway, to gain access to Derek’s flat you have to go through a sort of sectioned off compound. There are iron bars and a steel door. It’s not exactly welcoming and always makes me feel like I’m entering a prison.

    So, the gate buzzed, I pushed it open and Huey trotted in ahead of me, tail wagging…just as a tall Arab bloke was about to walk out. Now, Huey is similar in size to a corgi and looks (if you can imagine such a thing) about as ferocious as a canine koala bear. Frightening he is not. But…

    Old Abdul was absolutely terrified. I’ve never seen anyone quite so frightened of a dog. He was screaming, gesticulating, waving his arms about. It was a bloody pantomime. At one point he ran backwards so fast that he tripped and fell, hitting his head on the paving stones. This is a bloke I would never turn my back on.

    I attempted to calm with him with some well chosen Anglo-Saxon phrases, such as, “Calm down old chap” and “Get a grip”, but it didn’t seem to do much good.

    This was such a startling, alien attitude, but one that is becoming ever more frequent in “enriched” areas. For the life of me I can’t think what possible benefit this man (or many others) will ever be to our country. This bloke is clearly deranged, possibly dangerous… and living and wandering freely among us.

    I didn’t stay long at Derek’s, I was glad to be heading back home.

    And so was Huey…

      Sensibly I kept ours on lead anywhere but the park, and they were trained to only play fetch or walk to heel.

      Nonetheless, even in the shires I would anticipate pajama’d multi generational groups getting over excited. Which is seldom a good way to behave with animals unless butchering a sheep on a blue tarp.

    Where is liberal Bonnie Blue who had a bus for barely legal kids and was not arrested for prostitution?

    “In the UK, prostitution itself (the private sale and purchase of sexual services) is legal, but many related activities are not. It is illegal to solicit for clients in a public place, to control or “pimp” a sex worker for gain, and to run a brothel.”

    ‘Budget Leaks Unacceptable’ Says Chancellor Who Leaked Most of Budget
    https://order-order.com/2025/11/19/budget-leaks-unacceptable-says-chancellor-who-leaked-most-of-budget/

    This is the Chancellor who has presided over almost every possible tax rise being flown as a kite, gave a speech warning Income Tax would rise, panicked after it was leaked that it would not rise, briefed the entirety of the OBR’s forecasts, and let it be known that Income Tax thresholds would not be reduced but would be frozen. That’s barely the half of the briefings that have come out of Reeves’s Treasury…

        Priti Patel: Windrush Lessons Learned Review
        Volume 678: debated on Tuesday 21 July 2020

        “we will create an inclusive workforce in the Home Office. The Home Office must reflect the diverse communities that it serves at every single level. There are simply not enough black, Asian or minority ethnic staff working at the top in senior roles, and there are far too many times when I am the only non-white face in the room. Action must happen now, so I am introducing more diverse shortlists for senior jobs, specialist mentoring and sponsorship programmes to help develop a wider pool of talent and drive cultural change. While it is reassuring that the Home Office is on track to meet its aim of 12% black, Asian and minority ethnic representation in senior roles by 2025, my ambition is to go further, because the Department cannot truly reflect the communities it serves unless it represents the people within them.”

          Lucy. It reminds me a bit of Gordon Brown who ‘wanted to change the World’ and everybody in it (including former Labour voters) that opposed him were called a ‘racists’. But he was clever enough to create 20,OOO government QUANGO’s for pretty much the entire Civil Service (Tony Blair purges all the Conservatives in government posts). Only when The Conservatives (re-elected) closed most of them down and changed the CHARITY LAW to prohibit ‘Political charities’ from being ‘secretly funded’ by the taxpayer! Now Labour are back in power the number of taxpayer ‘political charities’ will grow like weeds. As they are not accountable (to the public), they cannot have their funding cut or be voted out of office. Starmer have created another twenty QUANGOS’ while in office. This is how Marxists work. Creating crisis which they create and then solving it by offering rights (to those that should not have any) and taking away your rights (as you protest).

        To suggest that all Scots hate the English is a fallacy born of ignorance. The reality is that some Scots (usually those with Irish Republican roots) not only hate* the English but also those Scots, the majority of the population, who do NOT hate the English.

        As for not supporting England’s sporting teams, that’s largely just a reaction to being subjected to the often unwarranted triumphalism of the English media when it comes to England’s national teams.

        *hate is probably too strong a word. Dislike is probably more accurate.

        Edit: We should put aside petty differences and rivalries. We can more effectively tackle our real foes if we stand together – and that goes not only for the four parts of the UK but for the Irish Republic too.

      During the plenary session in Strasbourg, with only a few dozen of the 751 MEPs present, an visibly angry Juncker told the chamber: “There are only a few members in the plenary to control the commission. You are ridiculous”.

    BBC Struggles to Produce Story on ‘Council Workers Abused for Taking Down St. George’s Cross and Union Flags’
    ——————————

    BBC journalists are moving on to pastures identical after its Head of News and Director-General were forced to resign over accusations of the corporation’s left-wing bias. They’re now working on a nationwide story to whinge about people flying Union Jacks…

    BBC Breakfast and BBC News at One hacks have fired off a mass email to every regional outpost today asking colleagues to find material on council workers being ‘abused’ for taking down flags in their area. Should make for gripping TV…

      I am still completely bewildered as to why WE have stuck our neck out so much further than everyone else against Russia. If anyone, it’s the EU countries problem, not ours.

      Our own PM went to Ukraine to sabotage a peace deal. Boris told them not to sign as ‘The West is not ready for peace yet.’. I still wonder how come Boris commanded so much authority in Ukraine – something smells very bad and it’s all the evidence I need that Zelensky is just a puppet. Another extremely important topic the BBC ignore.

      Now we will suffer the consequences for many years to come. For nothing. Russia is a country you deal with as firmly as you can – but poking it like we have is madness.

      This ‘real time’ story of a Russian spy ship loitering outside our waters is absolutely absurd. They will have many and so will we. It’s WW2 level propaganda for idiots.

      This is coming straight off the back of the rail sabotage in Poland. I’m now wondering if that was a false-flag and we are being fed rhetoric for something the EU are planning to sabotage the latest peace deal Trump is trying to arrange. Getting Ukraine for themselves is crucial for their expansion plans and ambition to be the worlds No1 superpower.
