    Watched Laura Kuenssburg this morning, she really is a very bad interviewer.

    Gave the Gov Minister an easy ride.

    So we have Iran targeting British bases and people.
    Before the war commentators denying Iran could launch a missile over 1000 km – which has been proved wrong.

    Isreal saying they could strike London.

    What is our government doing to protect London – which is a much bigger target than the bases, they couldn’t miss.

    Can our government assure its people they are completely safe?

    At least ask the question.

      Missiles? Why not just send lots of men with screwdrivers?

      “An asylum seeker has been jailed for life for the murder of a woman who worked at the hotel at which he was staying. Deng Majek stabbed Rhiannon Whyte 23 times with a screwdriver in a frenzied 90-second attack in 2024 after following the 27-year-old to Bescot Stadium railway station in Walsall.30 Jan 2026”

    Look and you will find.

    BBC produces a long report on black ‘women’ being exploited….surely this applies equally, if not more, to white ‘women’ as well…AI generated ‘women’…but the BBC only concentrates on Blacks and thus can bang the drum about racism….supposed racism…

    ‘TikTok has banned 20 accounts after the BBC highlighted the use of AI-generated black female influencers to drive users to sites promoting sexually explicit content.

    Houda Fonone, a Moroccan model and content creator who advocates for more authentic representations of black women, says the trend is about “erasure”.

    “Silky hair, extremely thin bodies and impossibly flawless skin… it’s as if black beauty can only be accepted when ‘refined’.

    “I believe these accounts are racist because their existence perpetuates a long history of the exploitation of black people,” says Nulani, one of the researchers.

    “Their use of caricatures, race-play terminology and unrealistic depictions of black women prove they’re not concerned with our safety or wellbeing, but our ability to be capitalised as part of the online porn machine,” she adds.”‘

    Ironic and hilarious that a primped and preemed black model should complain about manufactured looks….as if her own look isn’t the end result of several makeup artists and hair and clothes stylists blinging her up to look like this…in a quite probably digitally manipulated, ‘improved’, photo….

    Just the usual BBC obsession with race which does nothong to foster good race relations but in fact does the exact opposite by claiming, yet again, falsely that Blacks are victims of white oppression.

      ” long history of the exploitation of black people”

      “Slave trading between African tribes was a complex, established practice often involving warfare and raiding, which intensified with foreign demand. Powerful kingdoms (e.g., Dahomey, Ashanti) and merchant elites traded captives—often war prisoners or enemies”

    I’ve never shared the anti Ukraine pro Russia stance of some esteemed contributors. But in the interests of impartiality so missing from the BBC, I offer the following story.

    A couple we know as friends agreed to take in a Ukrainian family at the start of the war. A mother and two small children. The mother was a waste of space, reluctant to play ball. The children got in to a local primary school and have done well. Unlike the mother, they now speak excellent English.

    After about a year the family was found social housing.
    The husband was called up and served in the army, defending his invaded country.

    Roll on three years. The husband no longer serves in the army and is unemployed. The mother and children refuse to go back to Ukraine as ‘they cannot afford to live there’. They do however visit the husband/ father from time to time.
    Why are they still allowed to be in this country? At taxpayers expense of course. What’s the betting the husband will end up unemployed here in the UK to claim his Yuman right to a family life.
    Soft touch Britain x 10.

    No potholes have been filled in where we live for months.

    BBC reporting moves to punish producers and retailers with windfall taxes on petrol and diesel.

    Strangely the BBC managed not to mention the 53p flat rate government tax per litre on fuel plus 20% VAT on the total price, including the flat rate tax ( thus a tax on a tax). As the price goes up, the VAT goes up.

    So fuel at say £1.59 a litre rakes in 80 p, in other words half, for the government. For doing absolutely nothing.

    Therefore the biggest ‘windfall’ is not the petrol stations or producers but………the Labour government. You won’t hear this on the BBC. Or from any left activists. Which are more or less the same.

    The Sunday Times are running an article about Vistry the house builder. I am pay walled but I can guess what it is about. Their 2025 Balance Sheet indicates that they are running on one month’s operational cash. That is a problem if interest rates change suddenly and they are relying on house sales to finance the shortfall. Plenty of scope for this one to come and haunt the useless bunch of amateurs that allegedly run the country. Will the bBC pick up on the importance to housing and the wider economy? I doubt it.

    If Iran does lob a missile at Londonistan – imagine the shame of the Navy having to tow one of those type45 ? Missile jobs up the Thames estuary …..HMS invader perhaps …. What crap …
