    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.

    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.”‘

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c070e283k8vo

    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….

    52ea5f20-23aa-11f1-934f-036468834728.png.webp

    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.

    The Naked Week…..’It was a bit like Nazism…talking of which…Nigel Farage…’

    and of course….’Tory MPs…they’re all sex pests…..’

    Naturally Trump is a free-fire zone for the BBC ‘comics’ but then again he is on BBC News as well….whilst they give plenty of cover to Starmer whom they describe as having been ‘cautious’ in the way he stood back and watched Iran bombard us and our allies and not least basically launch a war against the world by closing the Hormuz Strait…but never mind…it’s nothing to do with us. Of course there’s absolutely no suggestion that Starmer is in fact a coward appeasing Muslim voters here and is running government foreign and domestic policy to suit them.

    The BBC is also keen to tell us Israel bombed an Iranian gas field and thus Iran merely retaliated….completely ignoring the fact that Iran has been bombing various oil and gas facilities across the region for a long time….the BBC blaming Israel and covering for Iran.

    Funny how Farage is called a Nazi for protesting about Nazis taking over our streets…

    1997 … “A few months ago, Batul Ebrahami, 18, was a high school student in Tehran. The daughter of a shopkeeper, she was relatively well off but enormously frustrated with the dictates of the Islamic fundamentalists who rule Iran. “Women were not allowed to do anything productive,” she complains.

    After two arrests by Iran’s ubiquitous secret police for openly complaining about the mullahs, Ebrahami fled, but not to Europe or the U.S. Today she resides in a dusty camp in Iraq, a soldier in one of the most unusual and little known military forces in the world. The National Liberation Army (N.L.A.) of Iran is 30,000 strong, fully armored and ready at any moment to do battle. Some 35% of its soldiers are women, as are 70% of its officers. The troops wear no insignia of rank, live communally and receive no pay. They have taken a vow to remain celibate until Iran is freed. And all express near fanatical loyalty to the woman they hope to install as the next President of Iran: Maryam Rajavi.”

    When the moment is right, say leaders of the National Council of Resistance of Iran (N.C.R.), the rebels’ civilian arm, the N.L.A. will roll across the border in support of a general uprising against the fundamentalist Iranian government.

According to colleagues she lacked even basic knowledge of anatomy.

    She was struck off the register and Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust said it was reviewing its recruitment procedures.

      Why holiday in a socialist country – when you can live there!

      We can overcome this impasse! Let’s Move Forward! “Enough for the Many, Enough for the Few”.

      It seems to me that Labour have lost (democratically@40%) but act as though they have won and the Conservatives have won (democratically@42.4%) but are waiting to lose, rather than take power and getting on with it.

      So I suggest rather than this continuing this tiring political, we take this problem further a field. Venezuela is praised by some Labour Members as a socialist dream, along with Cuba, South Africa and China. So we do a ‘wealth transfer’ of people.

      All members of Labour Party with families (483,000 Labour Members March2017) can transfer to one of the countries that signs up for this great experiment. In response, people from the socialist countries who no longer want the socialist dream, because they are living it, can come to the UK – trying to keep it one for one as close as possible – same skill would be great but this won’t be completely possible.

      We run this for 10 years and see where we get to. Socialist get to build their socialist dream in a socialist country, possibly with sunnier weather. The people who have had enough of the socialist dream can come to the UK to work hard and improve the UK.

    And what is this moral panic about the ‘manosphere’? It seems everything a man does is now toxic and misogynist….comb your hair or keep fit or have some plastic surgery…toxic masculinity.

    No irony that the BBC’s very toxic Woman’s Hour was on it…..no irony that the woman they wheeled in to tell us about all the abuse women get was…a trans woman…ie a man.

    If you’re, like most of us, unaware of this dangerous new anti-woman conspiracy the UN has a helpful guide to the Manosphere…

    ‘Online violence is real violence. The manosphere – an umbrella term for communities that promote harmful definitions of masculinity – serves as its nursery.’

    https://www.unwomen.org/en/articles/glossary/glossary-the-manosphere

    Most of it seems either entirely normal behaviour…exercising to look good or making jokey comments about women or claiming men are now oppressed [Woman’s Hour’s favourite line…male, pale and stale…kind of suggests they are under attack…especially whiteys]. Looking at the guide it seems a lot is in fact negative about other men who don’t match up to the perfect male stereotype as seen by some men…and women of course. Many of these expectations are in fact put upon men by women….but that’s not toxic apparently.

    Just the usual anti-male nonsense from the Left that sees men and masculinity, especially if it’s White, as a problem.

    Lawyers say that the Trump speech splice first appeared in BBC News coverage aired on the evening of January 6, 2021, and clips from it were circulated online soon after. Despite later criticism from independent media analysts who pointed out the deceptive editing, the BBC did not issue a clear, public correction acknowledging how their broadcast distorted the sequence and tone of the speech. The BBC’s ‘fake news’ was used as evidence against January 6 protesters including Enrique Tarrio. However, this means that Williamson could blame the BBC News team for using AI to create the malicious edit. Williamson has not commented.

    The U.S. Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor (DRL) report that the BBC’s use of artificial intelligence enters the ethical category of synthetic media manipulation, which must be disclosed to viewers under Ofcom and BBC editorial guidelines. The BBC’s Editorial Guidelines (Section 6 & 18) require clear labelling of any “digitally altered or reconstructed material that may mislead audiences.” BBC News and Williamson have not publicly explain their editing process of the Trump segment. Williamson may have used the BBC News segment. This would explain the lack of any flash between edited segments. BBC staff told Trumps lawyers that they blame the BBC News team. The US Embassy in London report that the mainstream media in Britain has not named Laurence Williamson or anyone in the BBC News team as the editor of the Trump speech: https://www.laurencewilliamson.co.uk/Credits_1.htm
