    News from the Patriarchy is simply an ironic titular marker for your Mr AsI’s lighthearted jibes at the patent feminisation of our media culture, and its relentless apparent need to both deny the power it wields and to spitefully continue to denigrate blokes.

    News from the Patriarchy

    What happened when I went on strike at home and left EVERYTHING to my husband… by Bryony Gordon (the ever-excitable Daily Mail)

    Our Bryony is pictured brandishing a protester’s placard sloganed “Get it yourself, darling!”

    This from a culture that urges don’t sow division and officially declares: Southport killer’s parents ‘should have stopped him’ Damning verdict of inquiry which also lays bare catastrophic failings by police, social services and mental health teams (Daily Mail) – in fact blaming just about every official body except immigration services – ‘cos that might just sow division.

    The all-caring ‘Mother’ of the left-liberal therapeutic state naturally cares for her own little girls (the boys, not so much) – but she cares equally for all the world’s waifs and strays – come one, come all.

    One likes to joke how the Guardian only displays a front page interest in sport when there’s an identity politics angle. This morning the Gruan suddenly shows curiosity in religion and theology: Pope says he will speak out against war after Trump criticism

    Our Bryony pictured on the cover of the Mail with her striker’s placard reminds us of the current ongoing junior medics strike action against the Labour government’s very own NHS.

    But what about the patients? Not to worry, our BBC reassures: Some hospital trusts tell BBC previous action has seen shorter waiting lists, faster decisions and calmer corridors (Hugh Pym, Health editor and Chloe Hayward, BBC, riding tandem on this particular gurney) – so our NHS is actually running more efficiently when the doctors are outside on the picket line?

    “War is peace, freedom is slavery, ignorance is strength” is the central paradox and slogan of the Party in George Orwell’s dystopian novel 1984 – thank you A.I. – but I vaguely recalled that from “O” level English Lit.

    I also seem to recall that the NHS was running at its super most efficient in the Lockdown era – gosh, nurses even had spare time for TikTok dance routines.

    Could it be that there’s some sort of demand side issue with the NHS? – Does it work best when patients don’t turn up at the hospitals – due either to being turned away and told to stay at home because there’s a pandemic or voluntarily putting off their visit because they know the quacks are on strike?

    Our BBC explains differently: Why hospitals can run more smoothly on strike days… “We sighed with relief – strikes act like a firebreak.” That was how one hospital boss recalled hearing news of a walkout by resident doctors in England last December… according to Dr Damian Roland of the University of Leicester. “The more doctors involved in a patient pathway, the longer everything takes” Dr Layla McCay, director of policy at the NHS Alliance, representing trusts, said: “We have heard, anecdotally, that the enhanced presence of consultant colleagues in A&E, with their additional experience, can mean quicker, less risk-averse decision-making, which is good for patients.

    So it is a supply side problem – too many cooks… as the old saying goes.

    Kinda puts the lie to those junior docs on the picket line with their placards that read: “Patients need Doctors, Doctors need jobs” (BBC report illustrated with a picket line pic – photo credit EPA) – and a right surly miserable lot they look. None of the enthusiasm of the youthful hopeful professional starting out on an ultimately very well remunerated vocational career – sounds to me like the juniors are a bit shoddy in their work as yet but demand the big pay cheques now – but at least they are a diverse representation. Front row of five: three asian, two white; two women, two blokes, one not sure.

    I think it was the left-leaning virtual online-only Indy front page where I first saw the construction “Trump’s War”

    The left-leaning junior poundshop (plus 10% pre- oil price hike inflation) Guardian that is the i paper goes with a new Trumpian coinage this morning…

    US starts blockading key strait… UK petrol duty hike may be delayed to counter ‘Trumpflation’ (i paper)

    There are those who claim the West is now so decadent that it frankly deserves to fall.

    Kate Lister in the i paper wonders: How ‘bi’ do you have to be to be bisexual?

    Today

    I get confused – i turn on the 0810 interview and hear a man being interviewed about a public inquiry . At first I thought it was the third world vermin in the Nottingham killings .

    But it turned out to be the inquiry about the Welsh choir boy and his third world slaughter … the man being interviewed sounded powerful – knowledgable – promising this that and the other – he sounded good – he sounded like the chair of the inquiry – but it turned out that he is just the lawyer for the families – no power – zip …

    The first part of this – the Southport child murders – is apparently 800 pages – I might look at it – but I know I’d be wasting my time .

    The pattern – the causes – we know – importing the third world vermin- and throwing money at them with no return apart from hate . – there – that summaries 800 pages of expensive waffle ..

    Next inquiry please – next third world vermin attacks …

    Robertson has it in for Rachel Reeves, who he points out used “a mere 40 words on defence in over an hour” in her Budget speech and in the Spring Statement “she used none.” In addition he accuses “non-military experts in the Treasury” of “vandalism”…

    He adds: “We cannot defend Britain with an ever-expanding welfare budget.” Something that has been blindingly obvious to some of us for something approaching decades now – while main domestic plank of Starmer’s government has been increasing spending on benefits…

    The Ministry of Defence is now advertising for a “Senior Policy Adviser” on “Climate Change and Environment.” To join the swelling ranks of the existing Climate Change team…

    At the same time as the Ministry is cancelling plans to fund military equipment and considering cutting training for the Army, it’s found £43,080 per year (more than their “Nuclear Threat Reduction Manager” is paid) along with a £12,480 annual contribution to the Civil Service’s gold-plated pension scheme to pay for someone to “lead on assurance activities and the review of the effectiveness of climate change policy across Defence.” In exchange for “providing coherence across Defence on environmental matters” the new adviser is offered “flexible working options” and “a culture encouraging inclusion and diversity”…

    We shall fight watch them come ashore on the beaches, we shall give them assistance fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight let them pick our fruit in the fields and wash our cars in the streets, we shall fight hide in the hills; we shall never surrender, and if, which I do not for a moment believe, this island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded helping Iranians by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the removal of all that is British rescue and the liberation of the old.

    Below are the 5 keys findings of the first bit of the Southport inquiry –

    Absence of risk ownership: No agency or multi-agency structure accepted responsibility for assessing and managing the grave risk posed by the perpetrator.

    Critical failures in information sharing: Essential information was repeatedly lost, diluted or poorly managed across agencies.

    Misunderstanding of autism: AR’s conduct was wrongly attributed to his autism spectrum disorder, leading to inaction and a failure to address dangerous behaviours.

    Lack of oversight of online activity: AR’s online behaviour, which provided the clearest indications of his violent preoccupations, was never meaningfully examined.

    Significant parental failures: AR’s parents did not provide boundaries, permitted knives and weapons to be delivered to the home, and failed to report crucial information in the days leading up to the attack.

    … looks like another excuse to censor the internet … I find it repulsive that the inquiry refers to the vermin as AR and not his real name … JohnC jones the Welsh choir boy …

      I realise this is not directly bbc – but I’ve been looking at chapter 1 of Southport – this is the view of the inquiry chair

      Agencies repeatedly passing the risk to others and closing/downgrading their
      own involvement is not effective – or responsible – risk management. If, as a
      society, we are to avoid repetition of what happened in AR’s case, this culture
      has to end. This is the single most important conclusion of Phase 1 of this
      report. This failure lies at the heart of why AR was able to mount the attack,
      despite so many warning signs of his capacity for fatal violence.END

      The inquiry doesn’t acknowledge what has been done to Britain – an invasion by 10 million aliens of all types across a very short time – which leads to attacks by third world vermin and state agencies trying to control an increasingly workload in deteriorating times … we must be due another slaughter soon … it won’t be 4 torched ambulances…

        As long as the UK does not get called racist – it was worth the deaths?!
        If it saves just one person crying over racism (rather than save one life).

        …………….

        A 2024 review by the United Nations Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (CERD) has raised serious concerns regarding systemic racism in the UK, urging the government to take immediate action to address racial disparities in policing, housing, and healthcare. The findings follow an increase in hate crimes, particularly following riots in 2024, and emphasize that people of African descent and other ethnic minorities continue to face structural discrimination.

        Prevent Strategy: The UN Committee called for the suspension of the ‘Prevent’ counter-terrorism scheme, stating it creates an “atmosphere of suspicion” towards Muslim communities and has a negative impact on their rights.

        “atmosphere of suspicion”

        Two girls died at the scene, six injured children and two adults were taken to hospital in a critical condition, and a third girl died the following day.

          Think it was Muslims themselves that created an ‘atmosphere of suspicion’….and this in fact had a positive impact on their rights as the Establishment bent over backwards to appease them. Terror was used to leverage advantage. Even the lefty Mirror noticed and called it out[to no avail]….

          ‘As Dr Syed Aziz Pasha says: “If you give us religious rights we will be in a better position to convince young people that they are being treated equally along with other citizens.”

          This sounds perilously close to blackmail.

          Ditto the group of prominent Muslims who penned an open letter suggesting Muslim youths are alienated by Britain’s foreign policy, so it should be changed.

          Why exactly? To placate a handful of home-grown terrorists and terrorist sympathisers?

          In other words the rest of us can only be safe if THEY get a foreign policy that suits them. The Mafia would call this extortion. Give us what we want and we’ll do our best to stop the baddies blowing you up. ‘

          LOl…they must be so happy now to have a Prime Minister in place who is their puppet and shapes foreign policy[ie do nothing to help fight radical islamists] to suit them.

          A Prime Minister unwilling to defend this country and indeed seems more intent on surrendering so much of its territory to other nations than standing up for our own interests, values, culture and beliefs.

          ‘The UK’s security is “in peril” and Sir Keir Starmer’s government has shown “corrosive complacency” towards defence, a former Nato secretary general has said.

          Lord George Robertson, the former Labour defence secretary who wrote the government’s Strategic Defence Review (SDR), will accuse “non-military experts in the Treasury” of “vandalism”, in a speech to be delivered later on Tuesday.’

    Last bit on Southport – the killer refused all questions in custody – but got caught on video saying this –

    “I’m so glad those kids are dead. It makes me happy. I don’t care.
    I’m feeling neutral. It’s a good thing those children are dead.
    Literally such a good thing those kids are dead, six years old.
    I’m so glad the children are dead. So glad. Yeah I’m so happy.
    Six years old. It’s a good thing they are dead, yeah.

    One might hope someone gets to him in prison …

    BTW – sometimes we ask what does UK do well ?

    Well public inquiry reports are very good – very detailed – but largely a complete waste of time effort and public money …

    You’ve got to admire the Muslims.

    I don’t know how they do it but they are steadily taking over so many Countries and without firing a shot.
    They have somehow convinced the ruling classes that Islam is the future, that it’s a religion of peace and everybody lives happily ever after.

    Anybody going against this is vilified by the msm and the politicians who bend over backwards for their new masters.

    They have somehow convinced women that it’s a good thing to be covered head to toe, to be second class people and that they are there to serve men.
    They’ve convinced the lgbtetc. lot that all will be well and don’t mention blocks of flats roofs or swinging from cranes..

    Maybe we deserve being taken over, we are weak and they are strong.
    It’s nearly happened before back in the olden days but the men we had then put up a fight. Now we are piss weak and are welcoming them in.
    In ww2 how would the population have felt if the politicians and msm had welcomed the Germans in just as they are welcoming in our future masters.

    2029 may be a date bigger than 1066 or 1215.

    Is the BBC driving this?

    ‘Misconduct inquiry over fatal schoolgirl crash’
    ‘Eleven Metropolitan Police officers are being investigated by the police watchdog for their handling of the initial inquiry into a crash in Wimbledon that killed two schoolgirls three years ago, the BBC has been told.

    Nuria Sajjad and Selena Lau, both eight, died after a Land Rover driven by Claire Freemantle crashed into an end-of-term tea party on the lawn of The Study Preparatory School in July 2023.

    Freemantle was not charged as the Crown Prosecution Service said she had suffered an undiagnosed epileptic seizure – but the girls’ families always maintained the investigation was flawed.’

    Did the driver suffer an epileptic fit? If so…case closed surely?

    Why is ‘race’ a factor in such an open and shut case?

    Read the very long BBC report and there’s absolutely nothing of substance…it’s all ‘feels’ and ‘cruel, unfair, inhumane’ and the police are so White….justice must be done, the truth must come out.

    Of course the police are being thrown under the bus for no apparent reason and officers being smeared as racists for no apparent reason. The decision was made by the CPS not to prosecute and it was done based on the medical evidence…ie crash caused by epileptic seizure.

    There is ‘nothing to see here’ but of course the BBC likes nothing better than to whip up racial conflict especially if the police can be blamed/smeared.

    ‘Police in Greece have been recruiting migrants to violently push other migrants back across its land border with Turkey, according to wide-ranging evidence uncovered by the BBC.’

    ‘Violently push’? Isn’t ‘pushing’ inherently violent? So shouldn’t that just be ‘pushing’….or did the BBC decide that wasn’t emotive enough?

    Suddenly the BBC is very concerned about the Law…

    ‘Pushbacks – forcing migrants and asylum seekers back across borders without due process – are generally considered illegal under international law. ‘

    Hmmmm….but if the colonisers are entering the country illegally is there a ‘due process’ needed other than to shove them back across the border?

    The BBC’s ‘due process’ is to allow them into the country, pay billions to look after them, get them a lawyer and spend years appealing their case and eventually they get to stay.

    The vile state broadcaster reports on the jailing of some enterprising burglars who used the Rightmove website to target wealthy homes. The BBC states that three of the men are from the West Midlands, with a fourth from Sheffield. That’s presumably the West Midlands of Albania and the previously unknown Albanian city of Sheffield (is it near Tirana or closer to the historic city of Shkodër?). The BBC article does generously state that the gang were ‘originally from Albania’, but somehow mysteriously transformed into Walsallians, Brummies and a Yorkshireman by some magical process. Mind you, on a trip to the Far East I once became a Chinaman, Japanese, a Korean and a Filipino all in the space of two weeks, but resuming my original identity again on touching down at Heathrow.

    “In the UK, the government and grid operators have paid significant amounts to wind farm operators to turn off turbines during periods of high wind—a process known as curtailment—when the network cannot manage the excess electricity being generated.
    Here are the key details regarding these payments as of early 2026:
    Total Annual Costs: In 2025, the cost to consumers for switching off wind turbines reached approximately £1 billion to £1.5 billion.”

    Future Costs: Some estimates suggest that if not addressed, these costs could rise to as high as £8 billion a year by 2030.

      Just a recent example from the last week that I was looking at and taking just two wind farms Moray East and Moray West clocking up curtailment of 2000MW.

      So the poor old elec consumer has to be screwed for:
      1) The wind curtailment
      2) The gas fired power station to compensate
      3) No benefit of a 0 £/MWh charge
      4) Paying our interconnectors to take power from us

      If you were to drive a load of electric Chelsea tractors up to Lossiemouth to take on this unwanted wind power you would need 100,000 cars assuming a 20kW domestric charge rate. There wont be so many fast chargers in that area.

      P.S Hope I got my maffs right.

      https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c9wqgjn7x89o
      31 March 2026
      The death of an 11-year-old Iranian boy reportedly in an air strike while manning a security checkpoint alongside his father in Tehran has thrown focus on a new initiative to recruit children into the security services.

      Holly Dagres said it shows “how deeply unpopular they are with their own population that it is struggling to recruit adults to staff security checkpoints and is resorting to using children in support roles during wartime”.

    Any passengers on South eastern trains will be relieved to know that drivers are very probably going to accept a three year pay deal.
    So no industrial action. It’s £10,000 over three years.

      “Train drivers in the UK earn an average salary of approximately £60,000–£76,000 per year, making it one of the higher-paid skilled roles. Starting salaries for trainees often range from £24,000 to £36,000, rising to over £60,000 once qualified and fully experienced. Pay varies by operator, with London-based andhigh-speed route drivers often earning more.”

      ……..
      Work to introduce driverless trains on the London Underground network “shouldn’t be progressed any further”, the mayor of London has said.

      In a response to a written question, external from Reform UK’s London Assembly member Alex Wilson, Sadiq Khan said it would cost billions of pounds on each line.

      In 2020, then prime minister Boris Johnson said driverless trains should be a condition of any future funding for Transport for London.

    For that reason, it will be completed within three years, supported by a £65 million budget.
