539 000 people cancelled their TV licence in 2025 / 2026 … if their BBC is so great – why would all those people do that ? Or perhaps there is something very wrong with the BBC … Let’s make it a million less licences in 2026/7 …

Lol…even the BBC has noticed that the BBC is spinning the licence fee drop to demand change to the funding system…after having spent years insisting there was no other viable way to fund the BBC…
‘Set against the backdrop of the BBC’s ongoing negotiations with the government over a new royal charter, the document features words such as “challenges”, “financial pressures” and even “jeopardy”. They were repeated in a press conference with senior leaders ahead of its release.
With its current charter set to expire next year and sales of TV licences declining, the BBC needs to persuade the government that its role has never been more vital – and that it needs a new funding model to deliver it.
The optics around this are a strategic choice. I can’t remember an annual report where the difficulties for the BBC have been so front and centre. It was a message for the government and a new prime minister in waiting.’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1wywpyq9g8o
We know what they want…a national levy and streaming platforms like Netflix, Amazon and Youtube to be included.
This not only massively boosts the BBC’s funding but will be part of the move to control their output, especially political content, by government which wants to silence inconvenient truths that the freeflow of information facilitates.
Fellow travellers at The Independent (sic) lend their support with a headline of ‘Fears for BBC’s future as half a million
households stop paying licence fee’. Fears? Who fears this? Many people welcome it and eagerly look forward to the day that the BBC is scrapped or at least put behind a paywall for those who want to watch it (all four of them).
pug, you beat me to it – well done pug!
With the likes of netflix and Amazon being truly massive and global – could they pull

Just a fact….where Muslims start colonising bad things happen in those countries and not long before the Muslims are trying to annex their own little ‘Pakistans’ and then building on that to take over completely. Helps of course to have stupid and weak native leaders who not just refuse to stop it but actively work, collaborate, with the Muslim colonisers to allow the takeover.
The ‘Lancaster Plan’ isn’t satire…it’s happening.
Equally I have been trying to find a country where the religion of peace is in a minority AND lives in peace with their majority neighbours. Anyone know of such a country?
“The centuries-old Jewish community in Afghanistan has completely ceased to exist. Following the Taliban’s return to power and decades of ongoing conflict, the country’s last known Jewish resident, Zebulon Simentov, evacuated the country in September 2021. A hidden Jewish relative, Tova Moradi, also fled later that October, concluding an estimated 2,700-year history of the faith in the region” Google AI
Singapore.
A country where nation comes first and flags adorn all balconies on Aug 10.
That said, a few rumblings that seldom get too far, especially as Ghurkas are on security.
It used to be that those in NS did not get to access explosives.
How is Singapore doing these days?
Thinking out loud here. In light of the horrendous event in Devon, I’m wondering if the reason those in the entertainment world come out as lefties, is because its safer. Maybe, just maybe they do have a differing political opinion but, like sheep, and a lucrative career to think of, it’s expedient to stay schtum about their leanings – in the same way it was career suicide to come out as gay decades ago, today its your political affiliation.
The panic will really set in when a lefty is killed in response …,
Someone may have coverd this in the previous thread, sorry if it’s a repeat but I didn’t see anything there.
Terrorism police have been busy this week. Not only with Ann Widdecombe’s murder but this fake emergency.
A total of 12 people were arrested on 12 and 13 July at addresses in Suffolk, Stoke, Surrey, Ipswich, Essex and London. What for? Flying a drone over an an Islamic event held at Shrubland Hall, Suffolk over the weekend (9-12 July).
It looks like they flew a drone or drones to see what was happening. The “gathering” Is called ‘Ijtima’ and AI tells me …
The Saudi government directed mosque preachers to dedicate Friday sermons to warning the public against the group, labelling it “one of the gates of terrorism” and citing its “misguidance, deviation, and danger to society”.
So it’s possible that it could have been a 10,000 strong terrorist gathering but “Terror Police” arrested some people for using drones to investigate it. (Instead of investigating the Islamic gathering themselves?)
To top it off our Pakistani Muslim Home Secretary uses the “Far right” smear against the drone operators.
Yep…curious that speculating about Ann Widdecombe’s killer is an appalling mistake that would prejudice any trial but…a report from the same day which the BBC juxtaposed next to Widdecombe report…undoubtedly a deliberate ploy to say the real threat if the Far-Right…
‘Twelve people have been arrested over an alleged right-wing terror threat to an Islamic event at a country estate in Suffolk, police said.’
and the day after Jo Cox was killed….a very long and detailed take down of Thomas Mair…compare to Widdecombe’s alleged killer who had ‘communist literature’…but which the BBC forgets to mention…Breitbart though…
‘Police Found Far-Left Literature in Home of Widdecombe Killing Suspect’
Contrast the Widdecombe reporting with the lengthy Jo Cox report by the BBC…
‘Jo Cox death: What we know about the suspect’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36558386
What’s interesting is the number of times Mair’s mental health was mentioned….but has long long been forgotten as he’s just a Nazi extremist now….mentioned 6 times in one article….and now erased from the narrative…
‘There are reports that he had a history of mental health issues
In a statement issued on Friday evening, West Yorkshire Police said links to right-wing extremism and the suspect’s mental health were lines of inquiry
His brother Scott, 50, told reporters on Thursday that his brother had a “history of mental illness” but that “he has had help”.
Thomas Mair spoke to a local newspaper six years ago about how volunteering at a park in Birstall had helped him with his mental health issues.
Known to them as Tom, neighbours said they did not know him as someone who had long-term mental health issues, although he may have been treated for depression a long time ago.
Marjorie Wallace, from the mental health charity Sane, said living alone and feeling disconnected from society was “fertile soil for extreme ideas, beliefs and hatred”.’
I recall Tablighi Jamaat getting their Mecca ticket punched…
The Saudis are v.twitchy about international Islamic movements – especially prothletising outfits, Tablighi Jamaat has markaz centres in 200 countries.
The mad Mahdi Juhayman ai-Otaybi a central (*the* Mahdi) figure in the 1979 (“End of Days / Last Prophet) Siege of Mecca that ended up nearly obliterating the holiest place (Grand Mosque) very likely used Tablighi Jamaat to recruit nutters from a dozen+ counties to participate in the murderous craziness that resulted by many accounts north of 3000 dead and a 10 year reconstruction program.

The BBC are worried , very worried .
No one trusts them anymore . The ‘Biased Broadcasting Corporation’.
‘John Simpson did not capture Kabul himself; he was the BBC World Affairs Editor who, along with his camera crew, entered the city ahead of conquering Northern Alliance troops in November 2001. He famously—and controversially—quipped on-air that “the BBC has liberated Kabul,” sparking media hilarity before later expressing regret.’
BBC’s finest spinning for Argentina to take the Falklands….lol…Then again if they invade again we can send John Simpson to win the Falklands back…he is after all the man[with his camera crew] who captured Kabul…
‘England’s World Cup semi-final against Argentina could settle a decades-long dispute over the Falkland Islands, the BBC’s decorated world affairs editor has claimed.
John Simpson said the match on Wednesday was “important way beyond football” as the fixture reignited a bitter rivalry between the two countries.
“If Argentina wins tomorrow night, it’ll put real fire behind the demand for the Falklands. If England wins, that should put the lid on it – for now,” he wrote on social media.’
What a cretin Simpson is.
Nasty Yasmin gets riled.

Gotta love it…no wonder Sir Keir wants to take over Youtube…
Curious how the BBC is avoiding mentioning that Widdecombe’s alleged killer is a likely Far-Left extremist….not a peep about anything ‘left’ nor that he had communist literature in his possession…no speculation at all about motive…how different when it is a right-wing person….they shout from the rooftops that he is ‘Far-Right’. Studiously avoiding any speculation…
‘Police say Ann Widdecombe killed in ‘targeted attack’ as motive investigated’
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0ryr74zjzvo
The Telegraph reports…
‘Detectives are exploring several leads on the suspect’s motive, including whether Miss Widdecombe was the sole target or if the suspect had been scoping out other Reform politicians as part of an extreme Left-wing plot.’
Breitbart…
‘Police Found Far-Left Literature in Home of Widdecombe Killing Suspect’
Compare how the BBC immediately did a very deep dive on Thomas Mair the day after his arrest…even sourcing material from the US…
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-36558386
‘Meanwhile a US civil rights group, the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), claimed it had obtained records showing Mr Mair had links with the US neo-Nazi organisation National Alliance (NA) between 1999 and 2003.’
The BBC are desperately clinging onto the hope that this isn’t in fact a far-left ‘targeted and political’ attack but just a lone nutter who hated her appearance on Strictly.
The BBC bullshit boilerplate Trusted News Initiative seems to ooze from every pore of the organisation – SPLC are about as credible these days as Amnesty International (OK they’re a lot worse, maybe….)

How long will the Labour government, along with their BBC allies, go on promoting the cause of Islam and, simultaneously, LGBT culture, before somebody mentions that these two agenda may be just a tad incompatible?
The time is fast approaching when the LGBT collective might realise, too late, that contrary to what MSM have led them to believe, it isn’t Christians they have to worry about.
hmmmm…. is it ignorant hypocrisy, or irony …? decisions, decisions – probably both, imho.
Yes…highly suspicious….BBC quick to plaster this story right up there next to Widdecombe’s murder report….have to think it was a very welcome turn of events for the BBC et al who want to make you think the Far-Right are a serious threat and that Muslims are the victims…and of course provided a counter to the Widdecombe story…which you will note the BBC has studiously refrained from mentioning any extremist Far-Left element.
Curious how the Home Secretary can freely claim this was a Far-Right attack and that many lives were saved….does that not prejudice any trial? I mean…they’ve spent days insisting Farage prejudiced the trial of Ann Widdecombe’s killer by suggesting he thought the murder may have been premeditated.
BBC squirrel antics – weapons of mass distraction – weird Islamic conclave in the countryside.
What the BBC FAIL TO REPORT:
Saudi Arabia banned event organising movement Tablighi Jamaat around 2021, labeling it a “gateway to terrorism” or “aberrant,”
“As per an article in The Week, Saudi religious leaders have for long viewed the TJ as “deviants”. Part of the reason for the ban was that the TJ does not see eye to eye with the kingdom’s own established revivalist movement, popularly referred to as Wahhabism. Saudi Arabia, however, is not the only country to ban the TJ. In 2013, Kazakhstan had banned the movement and designated it as extremist. The movement is also prohibited in other Central Asian countries such as Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Russia.”
https://www.efsas.org/commentaries/saudi-arabia-decision-to-ban-the-tablighi-jamaat-and-south-asia/
Nevertheless, with the passage of time, the TJ expanded and acquired a global footprint. It today claims to have over 400 million followers spread across 150 countries. In South Asia, Pakistan alone has more than 20 million. Ironically, it was Saudi money, among other factors, that fuelled TJ’s growth and expansion. The movement, however, has come under closer scrutiny in recent years. The move towards “pure” Islam has been linked by some to fundamentalism, and this has attracted the attention of law-enforcement agencies in several countries.
“pure” Islam

I’m oddly reminded of that classic episode of Dad’s Army, the one where Captain Mainwaring is embarrassed by the fact that his Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard platoon has been ordered to wear their medals for a big church parade – and he, unfortunately, has none.
Starmer becomes first UK PM to receive top French honour… the Legion d’honneur (Paulin Kola, BBC); Sir Keir Starmer is congratulated by Emmanuel Marcon… (Telegraph front page feature photo – one suspects the Torygraph is somewhat prendre le urine)
Oh, and there’s that one where Captain Mainwaring gets embarrassed having receiving some smacking great kisses on the cheeks from an effusively Gallic visiting Free French general.
I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Starmer will go down in history, just like an Angela Merkel or a Jacinda Ardern, as one of those world leaders who’s tenure degraded their own nation leading to remarkable unpopularity at home, but meanwhile gained plenty of foreign international appreciation.
From Two-Tier to: Two years of hurt… Sir Keir in Three Lions shirt… (giveaway Metro) – to my mind not only the headline of the day – but it rhymes.
The supermarket freebie adsheet Metro prepares our couch-based TV audience for their big football match (‘Need anything from Tesco? Classic Margherita stonebaked £3.30 £2 club card price’ – front page prime ad spot) and in stark contrast to the appreciative views of the internationalist elite, the giveaway more closely catches the mood of the home nation concerning our decisively ousted Billy No Mates but somehow still lingering PM…
Don’t jinxt it, Keir! PM plans to fly out for World Cup final if the Three Lions win tonight… but let’s face it, he’s not had too much luck lately!
Putting the Woke away? No, course not.
Andy Serkis defends lack of diversity in Lord of the Rings cast… Gollum in Lord of the Rings… Throughout his career, 62-year-old Serkis has been a campaigner for equality. In 2018, he said that being one of the few white actors in Black Panther gave him a new understanding of what it feels like to be the ethnic minority on a film set. However, the previous Lord of the Rings films, made before colour-blind casting became common, had almost entirely white line-ups, and so far, his film looks like being the same. Every major cast member announcement to date has been white… (Colin Paterson, Entertainment correspondent, BBC)
Cue Humza Yousaf: “Frodo Baggins… Whight! Gollum… Wight! Halvard… Whight! Gandalf… Whight!
The question is, why? (Colin Paterson, BBC)
Serkis nods his head before answering and it is clear this is a subject he has given a lot of thought: “Tolkien himself was influenced a lot by Norse mythology, there’s a lot of that feeling. The Shire feels very, very much like a very, a very white, you know…” He tails off and pauses before continuing, with greater certainty: “They’re not very concerned about what goes on beyond the borders of The Shire, but they know they don’t want people coming in.” (BBC) – careful now, Andy!
Trouble is, you start to mix woke with corporate capitalism – and it’s not so much Bob’s yer uncle – more a case of check your packet of rice and Ben’s no longer yer uncle.

Who is going to read the Covid report ? Anyone ? Will anyone act on recommendations – and be accountable to carry them through ? No
To me the inquiry is the usual after event ritual to shut down those affected and give cover to senior staff … collective failure nonsense …
These inquiries seem to be the only thing their state it good at any more – at a price of time and 200 million taxpayers ‘ cash …
Gary Lineker has been referring to the Falkland Islands as the Malvinas. What a dick, a gross insult to the armed services who reclaimed the Islands from the Argentine invasion. Some died and were injured in that action, also an insult to the Islanders as well.
https://www.express.co.uk/news/uk/2229156/gary-lineker-doubles-down-falklands
Lineker’s doing it deliberately for baiting purposes – probably being PR counselled by his chum Mad Al Camp-bell.
In the context of our weak military situation and Argentinian noises regarding the Falkland’s, Lineker’s stupid comments are very significant. From the Argentine point of view, one of England’s greatest assholes, sorry, footballer is saying the Falklands belong to Argentina.
Could you imagine what would happen if Messi said the Malvinas are the Falklands?
Maybe Gary can buy them back with his wealth and get Philip Schofield to do a documentary on it?

The likes of wet barwell destroyed the Tory party- a bbc favourite to provide the ‘balance ‘ fiction
Absolutely nothing in the Beeboid open pages regarding Ann Widdecombe.
The assumption has to be that they’re avoiding the issue and the truth, and of course, denying the sheep who pay the TV tax, their left-wing bias.
Scrob – yes – I detect a calm before the storm … I predict plod will charge said suspect after the footy match Wednesday night using the PICU playbook ….
… a lefty on twitter claimed a ‘family member ‘ of Ann Widdecombe claimed they wanted no ‘hate’ … but then someone more clever went through the very few member of the family – none had said that – again – the PICU 77 brigade playbook deployed to anaesthetise the public …

It was Conservative MP Neil Parish who resigned in April 2022 after admitting to watching pornography on his phone twice in the House of Commons chamber. He described his actions as a “moment of madness”
“9 July 2026
Updated 13 July 2026
Andy Burnham has effectively been confirmed as the next Labour leader after securing nominations from the majority of the party’s MPs.
The MP for Makerfield has been backed by 349 MPs – making it mathematically impossible for a rival to run against him.
It means he will become prime minister on 20 July, just a few weeks after he returned to Parliament in a by-election.”
WE CANNOT VOTE OUR WAY OUT OF THIS SOCIALIST DICATORSHIP – Andy needs 10 years minimum to sort it all out!
“become prime minister on 20 July”
yes, the pressure must be kept up this time – there must be answers, it isn’t going to work to dilute it with footy or contrived squirrel antics…
Three days in and still no name.
Must be a lot of Facebook, bluesky, X and email to tidy away.
… and tidying away there surely will be.
ahem..
If you are looking for a bit of 🏴jingoism – look at the crewkerne falklands mini film … priceless …

The media Marxists have now set the scene for further attacks on Reform MPs and officials … what the likes of TTK and ed Davey and the rest of the rubbish say – has increased hostility to the level of killing .
It is inevitable that there will be more – if the arrested suspect has links to Islam / greens / Marxists – he ll get a state sponsored easy time with Hermer friends falling over themselves to defend him – TTK judge – TTK jury … TTK CPS …
betcha …
The Forever War ….
“While Europe’s leaders boast about collapsing the Russian war economy, the bloc’s gas purchasers handed it nearly £5bn in six months.
Bill Browder argues that if Europe wants to end the Ukraine war, this is the revenue it needs to target ”

I’d take some convincing that the Ukraine war is even about Ukraine…
The Broadcasting House FUD machine at it again
Starve the beast
Stop flying to watch football plebs and celebrities… HA HAA HA!
The gross annual salary of United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres is $227,253. In addition to this base salary, which has remained unchanged since 1997, he receives standard UN benefits such as a post adjustment, health care, and pension contributions.

some good replies
PMQs
I’m listening to the final TTK PMQs . Absolutely revolting from the uni party – and the vile bought speaker -the hatred for Reform and Ann Widdecombe there for all to hear – covered up by ritual meaningless noise .
Shameful attacks of Nigel Farage – as usual – and we wonder why there are attacks on him and his Party .
As for anything about the reality – the invasion – the uncontrolled spending – zip …. I listen out of habit – but know – like that parliament – it’s not on my side – and treats me like a mug to be taxed and controlled …
Ed Davey pretended he had any regard for Ann Widdecombe who he must be glad is dead – the usual unrequited abuse of Nigel Farage – Davey tried a joke which failed . Not unusual …
Listening to this nonsense – you can hear that the political class is lost …
,,for some reason Richard tice asked a dumb question about footy – he might have mentioned a murdered colleague …
At the end a loon called Carolyn Harris – asked a planted question – aided and abetted by comrade speaker – telling TTK how great he was – so great that they dumped the rubbish …. The delusion lasted until the end ,,,
50 minutes of meaningless crap – they even gave him a round of applause – vomit inducing .
Parliament finishes until 1 September – good riddance …
Bodybags will be hoping to accomplish a PR driven reputational reset before September…
– ain’t gonna happen

BSL – House of Commons
Wednesday 15 July 2026 Meeting started at 11.33am
TOADY Watch – Amol Rajan still presenting?
Did he not resign from the BBC? His voice grates on my ears! I wish he would go from the BBC R4. In other news it would appear that we Licence Fee refuseniks are winning! According to the Mogginator apparently 540,000 TellyTax payers did not renew their TV licences last year. Hooray! Defund the BBC.
When the Mahdi arrives
I wonder what he thinks about Drag Queens?
“China Uighurs: Xinjiang ban on long beards and veils”
Published | 1 April 2017
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-china-39460538
The Chinese government blames the violence on Islamist militants and separatists.
But rights groups say the unrest is more a reaction to repressive policies, and argue that the new measures may end up pushing some Uighurs into extremism.
“Uighurs fear that their traditional culture will be eroded
”
………..
“Bradford is a highly diverse city where over 100 languages are spoken, though English is overwhelmingly the most common. Approximately 84-85% of Bradford residents speak English as their main or only language. However, there are localized communities, such as in inner-city wards like Manningham, where a significant portion of residents have limited English skills.”
Cultural Enrichment eh?
After the ludicrous PMQs came an urgent question – that the uk has come very close to electricity blackouts – particularly on 23 June .
The agency is called National Energy System Operator – which I think we will be hearing about more …..
“electricity blackouts” to be called “climate saving movements” by Ed Miliband!
The only movements I wish on Milibrain are involuntary bowel ones when the pitchfork equipped mob with burning fossil fuelled torches turn up.

I’ve had cause to look closely at NESO as I’ve said on here before – the corporate culture is DEI infused and slavishly follows Green Blob PR mantras – wading around their web site shows that they do have some engineers but actually, it’s quite a dispiriting experience since it seems very unlikely that strategic, mission critical decisions are being made in a rational fashion. The delusion is strong at NESO.
When the trips clunk out and the fridge / deep freeze go totally silent and the EV charger doesn’t work and the solar panels also don’t work (<10% seems likely if grid fails)
Here is where you will find some really well informed sanity: https://x.com/I_D_A_U_
Tomo – as a punter – is like being an outsider having ‘feeling ‘ that something bad was happening but not knowing what – why – how – ….
For something far more important than 50 minutes of mutual masterbation PMQs – it was …extraordinary …
Perhaps a blackout at 8pm on Wednesday night might get noticed …

A 48 hour black start will focus minds. They have a plan (I read one version about 3 years ago) – but it *can’t be tested* …. I well remember the power cuts in 1972/73 and 74 – what is less well known is the difficulty the CEGB had at the time with the grid’s sensitivity to large, synchronized load changes under constrained conditions like TV programs starting / ending.
If the grid fails – I’d guess “something bad was happening but not knowing what – why – how – ….” will be the predominating reaction in the NESO executive suite.
The chaos will be epic – I know for a fact that most NHS hospitals prioritise expensive murals of African village women and rainbow flags over testing their generators regularly.

“Five local inquiries, which cannot compel the production of evidence, just will not do. Fifty towns were affected, not five. Bradford, where some of the worst abuse occurred, is refusing to co-operate with any inquiry at all. There has never been an inquiry in Bradford, because the council is refusing to participate.”

Three asylum seekers convicted of ‘extreme’ rape of woman on Brighton beach jailed for total of 78 years
https://www.gbnews.com/news/migrant-crisis-jailed-brighton-beach
‘extreme’ – 650 Mps to condemn this language that causes hate.
This horror strays into ‘little bit pregnant’ territory.
Sick pun unintended.
I wish the media would stop calling them asylum seekers. You do escape a brutal country and then attack a women in the country you wish to be safe in. These are invaders, illegal immigrants, the scum the country they came from don’t want.
