Here am I, send me to the top of this Thread. The MSM do not like Nigel Farage and the Reform Party that he leads. Same would be true of the BBC! The BBC are wasteful on staff salaries, notice periods. Defund the BBC!
Cancel your TellyTax Licence. I was wrong about Amol Rajan co-presenting the TOADY programme on BBC R4. Defund the BBC! Ironically the BBC are advertising the TellyTax Licence on BBC R4.
Here am I also, just passing the screen to get the next episode of ’24’ from the box of tricks in the lounge!
The virus has just reached the hotel, and I’m going to find out what happens in the next episode as we speak, but isn’t this symptomatic of the toxic marxism we have infecting us all right now?
Luckily, the programme-makers of ’24’ didn’t have their state broadcaster everywhere, mucking everything up, just the main, serious, and superbly acted cast, creating a great series!
More to come, when I’ve understood what’s happening next, but it’s a damned sight better than a little twonk chucking stupid texts around about lighting fags!
I don’t have a Grout account, Uppers, but I do have several books of their cryptic crosswords dotted around the house for continuous mental stimulation – do they count?
Hurrah – it is raining as I have started typing in spite of this morning’s forecast that if we were lucky there was one spot on Wednesday and one on Thursday. But it isn’t why I am here!
Watching GB News Free Speech Union tonight there was the usual Leftie . Black Lives Matter was mentioned and he immediately used the words ‘that nobody could argue that…..’ I think it was about the number of unarmed black men shot or killed in the US by policemen. As soon as I heard it I thought ‘well I could disagree’ as I have read that the numbers are not what are claimed by Left activists.
It is the same with climate change. I hear so frequently on tv (but not the BBC because I refuse to watch it) ‘You can’t argue that the climate is changing’ or words to that effect. I could argue that the climate is changing all the time but I am a great deal less certain that many (indoctrinated by the BBC) that man has anything to do with it. I could also argue that the climate is changing every second or millisecond but I don’t suppose me turning up the heating will change anything anyway.
And the same with Gaza. I hear the words..’everybody can agree that there has been a genocide in Gaza’.
It is happening too frequently to be coincidence. I don’t know whether this technique is being taught in universities or whether just been absorbed by people younger than me.
Something I’ve notice and I’m sure I’m not the only one…
The suicide of serial fantasist, Jason Arday, is being turned into another George Floyd/Stephen Lawrence tragic opera, with the likes of race hustlers Diane Abbott Weyman Bennet and Lord Woolley stoking the mob into a frenzy. As you’d expect, the BBC are milking this for all it’s worth.
There are going to be “vigils” and “demonstrations”…Hmmm, we know how these usually culminate. If you’re due to be anywhere near Trafalgar Square tomorrow evening you might want to do a detour.
We are told that the poor lad was “subjected to a vicious witch hunt”. Well, yes he did come in for some stick, but that was to be expected after many of his more ludicrous claims became known
In my opinion, if you want to point the finger, the real culprits are those simpering white women who promoted him far beyond his limited credentials and treated this Walter Mitty like an exotic pet. He was bound to be outed…
And as a contrast…Just over a month ago Ann Widdecombe was attacked in her own home and subjected to the most horrifying and despicable assault by a hammer wielding nutcase. As yet the motives of the murderer are unknown (ahem)…but please DON’T SPECULATE…
Ann had served our country for decades and was a still serving it as a member of Reform. She was formidable.
Ann has now been buried and as far as most of the media are concerned so has her murder.
But trust me, the BBC and their ilk will make sure that Jason Arday is going to run and run.
Whilst I agree with most of your post Jeff, just one tiny issue. Not all the simpering women who appointed Jason Arday were white. I am sure Sonita Alleyne would have been involved in his appointment and she isn’t white.
The film of his Head of Faculty welcoming him and saying he was ‘the best in the world’ was embarrasing even before the stories of his plaguerisn came out.
Jason Arday was a liar and fantasist who had been found out. Everything had been handed to him because of the colour of his skin. He wasn’t up to his job, and his CV was a tissue of lies. He had run out of road. There was no-one left to lie to, so he took the coward’s way out.
Andy Burnham announced on Friday that the government is pledging £65 million to help farmers with the drought. Apparently that works out at £620 per farmer. A politician with any business experience might have asked the right questions to realise that this isn’t going to help an awful lot but of course Andy Burnham has never worked in business. As I understand it, the money is to build new reservoirs. A new tractor costs somewhere around £100,000 each (except Clarkson’s Lamborghini) so the £620 will not go very far and what it won’t do is help farmers this season. Besides for farmers on chalk land for example, the only water available to fill a resrvoir they might build will have to come from rain….and there is drought because there isn’t any rain. Of course for farmers in flood plains, probably the last thing they will want is a reservoir. Mr Burnham needs to take advice from real farmers and not the lanyard classes what help they really need.
And apparently the £65 million isn’t new money but comes out of the existing DEFRA budget.
Ha just came here to post that video https://youtu.be/6wATROZwIxA
Katie from experience , as she compares her treatment to Arday’s
You put yourself forward as a public figure and you know what the MSM and lefty establishment are like : bullying and harassing
so take it on the chin
Yes of course Tommy, Trump, Farage, Lowe, Musk and Katie each get much more hate and harassment everyday than normal
She makes a very perceptive point – when she has under attack she had a number of defences – including the truth – but the PE teacher was living a lie and didn’t have the fibre to carry on …..
In a way it’s a bit unfortunate because now the far left DEI gang really can deify the fraudster – and they will close ranks to cover up their sins .
As I write I bet there is another DEI token being – er – groomed – prepared – to take over the role . The next one will have a ‘sanitised ‘CV with the lies removed …..
The frauds in prominent public positions using notional status to fortify their positions have multiplied over the last several decades – it’s really not something new but my perception is that it’s multiplied to the point where you can’t trust anything or anyone – and that’s not healthy at all?
The instant Cambridge announced that there would be an inquiry, Arday resigned. He knew he had no defence. His entire life was built on lies, and when those lies were called out, there was nothing left.
You are right. When I was at university, I knew several people who had to go into the local mental hospital because of nervous breakdowns and the like. And that was before “mental health” was a thing!
Shame a few of our lefty comedians[so-called] don’t have the balls to do this….
It’s a funny old world where if a man shows a picture of Moohammed he gets so many threats to his life from Muslims that he has to go into hiding….for years….and no-one on the Left says a thing…where’s the outrage…where’s the calls for investigations…where’s the calls of Islamic ‘racism’, where’s the talk of ‘lynchings’?
On the other hand….if you dare to ask questions about the authenticity of the Left’s latest poster boy and then he unfortunately kills himself all hell breaks loose with accusations of racism, witch hunts and lynchings….blood is on the critics’ hands….but of course it’s not….it’s on the hands of the very same Left that exploited Jason Arday and sacrificed him on their very own DEI altar.
Pug – funny – the words coming out of bill Maher s mouth could easily of those of Tommy Robinson …..he goes on a bit ( 9 minutes ) but it’s worth it …. America – save us …nice reference to England at the end …and the idea of the UK turning away ‘gay cruise ships ‘….? Ouch …
Turning on at 0600 to hear the propaganda agenda – it’s so good to turn the digital wireless off at 0602 … off to get some ‘news ‘…
I see the fraud PE teacher story has ‘gone ‘. Maybe it his DEI supporters play up at their demo today the fraud will get more attention …
Wanna bit of Monday depression. ? Watch the mark Felton YouTube report of the state of the Royal Navy ….
Apparently last month ‘operation paper tiger ‘ took place – sending the only working aircraft carrier to frighten the Russians in the arctic. There were no aircraft – and escorts had to be provided by the French ….. painful watch
Yup I watched that video. Shocking absolutely. From Bliar on. Bliar and his Conservative acolytes needs to be subject to the pristine Rack in the Tower of London.
I definitely need to see people pay for the disgraceful state this country is in. At least as a warning to successors who, no doubt the counter argument will go, will not happily join the political ranks for fear of reprisals when it all goes wrong. My argument then would be, develop a system like the Swiss (or is it Austria?) of obtaining the consent of the public by referendum for anything little above day-to-day admin. No postal votes.
The RN has rotted from the inside…. I recall a an officer I worked with who’d taken early retirement in the noughties – he was absolutely incensed that DEI had been imposed and was a major factor in RN personnel planning – operational crew that were “differently abled” and didn’t have English as a primary language being two topics that triggered him into vocabulary fail, spluttering near incoherence. He was eventually picked up by Australian / NZ navy with a generous joining package and a pension….
A decade+ later DEI has infected the Kiwi / Aussie Navies…?
You know I sometimes refer to the UK as ‘third world ‘ yes I sadly really mean it – if I was a politician TTK world accuse me of ‘talking down the country ‘ – that irritating term no doubt the imposter PM will be using ….
Anyway – third world UK – evidence ? Last week we were hit with at least 2 requests – 1 – use less electricity as the grid isn’t well – 2 – use less water …….
I still think getting a water meter saved me huge money as I don’t use much but have a big gaff ( note to intel file )
And for evidence I didn’t even cite border invasion – invader rapes – potholes – Dei academics – failing NHS – failing prisons – overpriced power – dependency on foreigners for defence and food and power …. And a submissive attitude to the EU – oh year killing unapproved politicians and submitting to Islam
Use less water – we live on an Island surrounded by water
Use less electricity – Ed Miliband to use only one kitchen not two.
Road potholes will be used to collect water.
Welcome 230 on a single boat.
Pay 650 MPS and 800 Lords to ignore above.
Fond memories of the small tankers the Saudi’s used to go round sucking up the rain water that would not drain off the roads after infrequent heavy rainstorms. Can we learn a thing or to from the muslims……………

Earlier the BBC ‘Today’ interviewed (I think it was) James Cleverley on some issue. The interview was rounded off by the last question to do with the dead black professor. What did Cleverley think? was the theme. Excellent reply placing the blame fairly and squarely with Cambridge lack of due diligence / common sense.
Now obvious that the hated BBC will milk the death for all its worth until they come across a person/entity to shoulder all the blame for the suicide.
I can confirm the site South of Crewe for HS2 is now in operation. Road signage and cones out.
Burnham was very keen on completing the HS2 link to Manchester and its obvious he has restarted the project without consultation, regardless of cost. Britain is being ruled by Autocracy and secrecy.
It’s always interesting to note what the BBC consider to be newsworthy…
Top of their newsfeed for the UK is; More than 200 people have attended an emotional vigil to remember Jason Arday. Well, Jason’s top of the list, there’s a surprise.
We’re told about a cat returning home after being missing for ten years. Actually, I am pleased about that, but it’s not really a major event.
And then there’s a rather snotty piece about Reform’s proposed benefits shake up, but…
There’s not a sentence or a syllable about the rape of an elderly man…in broad daylight…outside a church in Harringay…by an illegal Eritrean Migrant. Absolutely nothing…zilch…nowt.
This is such an unspeakably revolting and shocking crime that it should be top of every station’s news agenda. But no.
Mind you, looking on the bright side…the cat got home…
Eritrean Migrant assault case…
An un-named spokesperson for the BBC says:
As a responsible state broadcaster operating on a limited budget, we have to exercise discretion in how we spend the licence payer’s money. Operating dozens of unnecessary TV channels and radio stations is an expensive business, and in consequence we cannot report every story. Particularly when it’s already being carried by GB News, The Daily Telegraph, IBC, The Daily Star, AOL, The Daily Express, Press Reader, The Sun, and many other more reputable news outlets. So there.
The Home Office is advertising for ‘a long-term transformation programme in the delivery of asylum support and accommodation services.’
Basically bringing all the existing contracts together.
They call it a ‘transformative re-procurement’.
They are searching for suppliers who can do the following…
– Accommodation provision – ‘to meet the varied needs of asylum seekers’ and to support ‘community integration’.
– Accommodation management – to ensure a ‘safe, suitable, and responsive living environment for asylum seekers.’
– Transport – provide a 24/7/365 transportation service that is ‘timely’ with ‘professional drivers’.
– Sustenance – receive appropriate ‘cash’ and a ‘payment card’ is provided.
– Safety and Security – ensuring the ‘safety and security’ of the illegals.
– Audit and Assurance services – for inspections and reviews to identify areas ‘for improvement’.
– Service User Assistance – support ‘throughout their asylum journey’ ‘from initial application and arrival at accommodation to integration into the community’. Helping the illegals to ‘access’ local services.
– Wellbeing and Safeguarding – ‘specialist safeguarding staff’ ‘must’ be deployed.
The contract start date?
1st September 2029.
End date, 31st August 2036, with a ‘possible extension’ to 2039.
1 bullet. 1 sniper. 1 deflated dinghy.

Invade France to end the invasion from France and to fee the people of France from Macron.
….
I dreamt of a King on his steed on Kent beaches slashing dinghies with his sabre then swimming across the channel to the source of the invasion, the Jupiter King President Macron.
I awoke to a King swirling in a toilet like a discarded tampax, the the last words of the tampax King where “We have no borders, windfarms are a blot but bring me money. Inshallah.”
I dreamt of a Prime Minister who knew that a man had a penis, who looked forward to 650 debating for their constituents and who wanted to smash some gangs like his USA President.
I awoke to a man alerting me that I can not use a BBQ.
I dreamt of a Chancellor who knew how money worked, who wanted to reduced taxes and reduce the burden of Government.
I awoke to a man needs more money for defence whilst not stopping one boat.
Reform and Restore should respond to this by announcing a policy of ‘transformative remigration and deportation’ which will aim to remove all illegals, bogus asylum seekers, foreign criminals and economic parasites. Long before 2039.
All companies that participate in the “delivery of asylum support and accommodation services” should be excluded from future government and council projects and have any profits resulting from such contracts confiscated and used to compensate British victims of migrant crime. Their directors and senior executives should be subject to close scrutiny to identify any vested interests and criminal activities, and prosecuted accordingly.
Small boats data
This page shows figures for the last 7 days for migrants attempting to cross the English Channel in small boats without permission to enter the UK.
The main substantive change is the splitting out of Service User Assistance (and External Assurance) into separate procurement routes. This narrows the scope of the primary “transformative re-procurement” of accommodation and related wraparound services. Engagement timelines have also been extended, and the Home Office is running parallel market engagement for the carved-out elements.
Andy Burnham to arrest everyone who celebrated Pakistan Independence Day with fireworks? HA AHH AHA HAH HAH AH AHA HH A H! This is hilarious!

“We Can’t Vote Our Way Out of This Mess”
Richard The Fourth
Is it only us in the West and similar Nations such as Australia, NZ and Canada that are contaminated with all this barmy woke DIE rubbish.
Is the likes of Russia and the other ‘Baddie’ Countries free of this far left destruction of our way of living.
It’s funny because Russia is supposed to be a far left (communist) type of government yet this DIE crap doesn’t seem to be destroying them.
Why have our ‘left’ been completely taken in by this woke bollox yet the real lefties want nothing to do with it.
I think our ‘left’ are such a bunch of idiots they don’t know what they are doing.
How long would some of these pink haired men women who continuously whinge on about everything last in China.
These same daft lefties having unbelievable groups like ‘queers for Palestine’ who are unaware of what would happen to them in a ‘free’ Palestine.
It’s true the saying but I wish ‘the Gods’ would hurry up and complete their second part of the quote.
“Public and media reactions in China to contemporary Western debates over gender identity often view modern transgender concepts with complete incomprehension or skepticism, sometimes treating abstract self-ID notions as a bizarre cultural import, while domestic trans individuals face a strict, binary medical framework and heavy societal pressure.”
“Cambridge chancellor criticises ‘racist feeding frenzy’ around Jason Arday”
A bit like Henry Novak the state stoops to the lowest common denominator. Academics are not daft (they may have dropped their intellectualism) and they push at the easiest doors to open.
Whether it Arday, Novak, Pakistani rape gangs, HS2; I could go on; there is a fundamental intellectual vacuum in the UK. It seems to sit with the logic of the adherrents of Marxism; while the evidence says it does not work, it does because I say so.
As ever empty vessels make most noise and the bBC are the ever present megaphone for a failed ideology
A genuine black academic and intellectual, Thomas Sowell, described this comprehensively in his book ‘Conflict of Visions’ published in 1987. I’m not doing him justice here, but basically he categorised people as being ‘Constrained’ or ‘Unconstrained’ in how they view the World. In this context, the constraining factor is reality itself. The constrained thinkers accept that humans are fallible, that human nature is unchanging, that we must rely on experience and tradition and develop social structures that reflect reality (these are the right wingers if you like). The unconstrained thinkers are not restricted by reality, they are utopians, human nature is essentially good, we can make the world perfect and no price is too high to pay to achieve it. They are the liberals/leftists. Oh, and because they have perceived this, they as individuals are morally superior to everybody else and have the right to impose it.
Funnily enough, I don’t recall ever seeing Sowell on the BBC or even referenced. Wrong narrative, you see.
Maybe Khan's idea is that if Britain is completely destroyed, it can be bought for a song by his bankroller, Michael Bloomberg. https://t.co/9xakfmvoYp
We need a new government that will put Great Britain and its British people First !
Doesn’t the fact that there is a website under the title of ‘Biased BBC’ send a message to both the BBC and the government, that there is a problem ?
Scrap the TV Tax .
There is no evidence that Obama, his campaign, or his administration knowingly accepted illegal foreign money, colluded, or “rigged” the election. Court documents, DOJ statements, and contemporaneous reporting emphasize that the scheme was deliberately concealed from the campaign and candidate via straw donors and false reporting. Prosecutors described the campaign as having been “duped” or “deceived.” No charges were brought against Obama or campaign officials, and fact-checks (e.g., Snopes) rate claims of knowing acceptance of large foreign sums as mostly false for that reason.
Phew, close shave
The operation: Prosecutors proved Michel accepted more than $100 million from Malaysian financier Low Taek Jho in a covert influence scheme tied to influencing U.S. elections.
The laundering network: Michel used straw donors to secretly route foreign cash into Obama’s 2012 campaign, bypassing federal election laws designed to prevent foreign influence in American elections.
The verdict: A federal jury convicted him on 10 criminal counts, including conspiracy, money laundering, witness tampering, and acting as an unregistered agent of a foreign government.
Looks like the race industry is out in force today yapping ‘race ‘ race ‘ over the dead PE Teacher ….
Yet they refer to him as ‘the first black professor ‘ thus injecting race / racism into the mid from Them .
What would they want from an ‘inquiry ‘? To muzzle the remaining journalists from saying / doing anything with exposes not white crime – such as the fraud conducted by the dead PE teacher ….
I bet they don’t want an inquiry into the use of carter ruck to frighten off journalists or the wrongful use of plod and its wrongful attempt to threaten the press ….
The race industry used this character who was well out of his depth – presumably trained to say the right things in public but deep down knowing he was on academically capable
That demo in traf square could be quite ‘emotional ‘ – let’s hope so …
BBC back on the Islamic Hamas propaganda train- they got the Hamas ambassador in the studio – his name is Jeremy Bowen – usual stuff about Gaza / Hamas as victim – blame Israel – same old ritual …..pro Islam – anti west anti Israel
Great wailing from the toff white academia’s over the black professors demise.
“A Racist feeding frenzy” they howl.
If we have reached a point where it is only allowed to expose and denounce a serial liar if they are white I would call that reaction much more racist….

Elon Musk and X under attack for the last 12 hours since he announced that his social media platform X will implement a transparency feature to explicitly flag and display British government-mandated content removal or restriction requests to users. Musk stated that any state-compelled suppression will be clearly labelled, allowing users to identify government intervention versus independent platform moderation. Alex Jones calls on Elon Musk to investigate a 90% increase of censorship on X: https://www.alexjoneslive.com/2026/08/17/watch-alex-jones-calls-on-elon-musk-to-investigate-fix-x-algorithm-change-disrupting-live-broadcasts/
European Commissioner for Internal Markets and Digital Services, Thierry Breton, warned Musk in a letter explicitly invoking the Digital Services Act, referenced ongoing formal proceedings against X, and made clear that if content aired during an interview with President Trump violated EU standards on illegal content or disinformation, Musk and X would be held responsible. The threat was direct. Allow Trump to speak freely, and regulatory punishment would follow. Musks reply to Breton was “f*** your own face.”
Melanie Dawes warned Elon Musk not to allow free speech on X, saying that Ofcom “won’t hesitate to investigate” if Musk fails to censor content not authorised by the British Government. Musk said the British Government wants “any excuse for censorship” and that “illegal content” becomes whatever the political class decides it is.
CCDH founder, Morgan McSweeney, a British political operative whose Labour Together operatives were advising the Kamala Harris campaign during the 2024 election, co-ordinated with Senator Amy Klobuchar’s team, to try and “Kill Musk’s Twitter”. Musk replied on X with three words: “This is war.”
However, legal actions against the BBC and MI6 could mean that some British plots against President Trump will remain secret until after the Florida trials.

BBC News | Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook restricting a story about Joe Biden’s son during the 2020 election was based on FBI misinformation warnings.
The New York Post alleged leaked emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop showed the then vice-president was helping his son’s business dealings in Ukraine.
Facebook and Twitter restricted sharing of the article, before reversing course amid allegations of censorship.
Zuckerberg said that getting the decision wrong “sucks”.
I am sure we all saw the distressing story of the 60 year old man raped by “Eritrean” 🇪🇷 Bruke Desalagne, 33, in Harrow. In court he needed an interpreter, which German-Eritrean @deutscheritreer explains makes the crime even worse.
He writes: “Desalagne is an Ethiopian (Amharic) name, at his age nearly nobody flees Eritrea and if he would have fled as an adult, he wouldn’t need a translator in court, since English is mandatory in Eritrean schools. Pretending to be Eritrean helps in order not to get deported.”
Indeed AI told me that English taught from the age of 5/6 & in secondary school to university the lessons are taught in English.
A reporter asks Massachusetts mayor (who’s from Dominican Republic) for comment after he was arrested for allegedly stealing over a million dollars of covid relief money and his staff answered “he doesn’t speak English.”

The Express has: Our hero… Mourners line streets to say goodbye to Bonnie [Tyler]
Meanwhile, the left-leaning Graun and the Indy are “Holding Out for a Hero”
Tens of thousands gathered in London last night to pay tribute to Jason Arday… allegations of plagiarism, which he denied – the Guardian carries a front page feature photo of a crowd – some of them black and it was that minority contingent which the photographer managed to catch front and centre of the crowd.
Ditto the composition of the front page feature photo in the Independent – one also notes identical professionally produced and distributed placards, a crowd of white people, a few black people featured in the front row: Thousands attend Trafalgar Square vigil for Jason Arday… organised by Stand Up To Racism
Who would have guessed there was such grass roots interest in and such a significant spontaneous groundswell of support for this guy and his magnum opus: “An Exploration of Peer-Mentoring among Student Teachers’ [sic] to Inform Reflective Practice within the Context of Action Research”
And there we were under the mistaken impression that universities were storied seats of learning and academic excellence.
In fact what they have morphed into are corporate businesses with the same longing for open borders and corporate crony state subsidies as any other profit conscious globalist money grubbing corporation…
Brexit yields dividends for Europe’s best universities – this from what I like to call the left-leaning bottom left-hand corner column of the front page of what I like to call The Brussels Trumpet or the Mid-Belgian Courier… trading as the Financial Times
A surge in foreign students at Bocconi business school in Milan illustrates how Europe’s universities are profiting from a post-Brexit shift in higher education. EU applicants have been put off Britain since losing access to financial support and visa-free study (FT)
Your Mr AsI has previously shared his pre-Brexit anecdote of his kids coming home from school and announcing there were a new boy and a new girl just starting at their school. A Dutch boy and a Norwegian girl apparently. “Oh, how nice. What are their names?” The answers: “Ali” and “Fatima”
One tends to characterise the non-financial Times as the regime mouthpiece.
What does the regime want to tell us today?
First and most importantly foremost: Children left ‘fixated with violence’ by social media (Times) – it’s an imperative for the regime that ever stricter controls are placed on social media. Think of the children – otherwise people will talk.
Oh, and you remember that Welsh Choir Boy and what he did? Well, you might blame his genocidal Rwandan tribal background or his parents for hiding his psychotic mental tendencies – or even the authorities for not intervening or perhaps for allowing the family here in the first place.
Well, you’re wrong – unmediated social media was to blame: Report backs curbs to stop Southport-style attacks (Times)
One more word from the regime: Tweak to early release scheme could keep PC’s killers in prison (Times) – so that’s all just hunky dory.
Bomb Iran, maybe using tactical nukes; bomb Oman; why not bomb Greenland / Denmark? Why not indeed. Trumps only “Close friend” (self-declared) is North Korea & Russia. Tells you everything.
How are the dedicated MAGA supporters feeling now?
– Trump hates everyone and likes to be in the news.
+ Trump’s point about Nato not having spent enough on military has come true.
+ Closing the Mexico border was essential as per Ceuta.
+ Stopping China via tariffs importing drugs into the USA to destroy the USA and fund China is important. Remember he added tariffs to everyone. + Suing BBC over editing a clip to make it look like he wanted the insurrection.
+ Focusing on Greenland as a weak spot for China to step in, remember Nato sent more troops to scare off Trump (i.e. Trump gets to build up defence using words)
+ Invading Iran shows the USA has an army and will use it plus they have battle hardened troops
– Selling early access to his tweets is corruption.
– Giving his family, who seem incompetent, access to top positions should be looked into.
– Invading Iran, rather than slow and subtle replacing the leaders and allowing the people to replace their leaders, was not a good tactic, on the flip side it shows the USA has an army and will use it plus they have battle hardened troops.

The Burnham Broadcasting Corporation are all over a story this morning to give disabled people free 24/7 bus passes.
Whatever happened to equality?
Also since disabled people qualify or don’t qualify for benefits on their own terms already is this not a way to increase the benefits bill without anyone noticing? Just transfer the bill onto another department. Free bus passes. Fewer potholes filled in.
Our local station was upgraded due to the Elizabeth Line. They put in three new lifts for disability access. I’ve never seen any disabled person use them. One is for a platform where no trains ever stop. A.local school spent £60 k on a new lift to get disabled parents up to the first floor hall. There weren’t any. It was demolished about five years later when the whole school was rebuilt.
At one time every Chemistry department in every University had to be altered on the off chance of wheelchair using students.
The cost of retro-fitting for disability -equality purposes is absolutely ridiculous compared to their subsequent use. What a waste of money. There has to be a better and fairer way. For all of us.
War between Russia and Ukraine (pre-Trump). Remember Biden saying on International news that a small incursion would be ‘okayish’ but not an invasion of scale or words to that effect. Almost immediately followed by a Russian invasion.
Growing threat of China in Taiwan and many other strategic places, not dealt with by Biden, Obama and others (pre-Trump). The US know the importance of Greenland and Taiwan in terms of the technical war that is on-going.
The likely proliferation of nuclear devices by Iran, not dealt adequately with by Biden, Obama and others (pre-Trump). Should the west let them have nuclear devices?
North Korea, not dealt with by all US administrations, including Trump.
By the way the Obama administration supported the overthrow of Gaddafi resulting in the sub-Saharan African invasion of Europe. It is likely that Trump would not of let this happen by not supplying military (air cover) to the Libyan rebels.
It’s easy to leave all of this at the door of Trump and ignore how we ended up like this. Would have been better if previous administrations had grasped the nettles before the nettles grew too big. Would have been easier for Trump and his voters to have done very little.
Israel and the ME has been a major global problem for decades.
I know, let’s blame Trump for all of this, you know it makes sense, just ask BBC verify. Leave it all to future generations to deal with. Much easier. people have short memories.

‘We don’t know what will happen, what will be the reaction of the white and Christian Europeans faced with this influx of starving and ignorant Africans,’ Col Gaddafi said…
Now Blair has gutted all the institutions and filled them with morons – what is the plan now? Can someone ask him what the final plan was for the UK?

“Tony Blair’s son sets up defence business”
Former teacher and football agent seeks to tap into European rearmament boom amid Russia threat

A spokesman for Pyra added it was “founded to serve the security interests of the UK and its allies”.
Come on – dont be like that – let’s have a state funeral – eulogy by lenny – or idris – or Lammy for a laugh – full gun carriage – medals – the works – buried in frauds corner in Westminster abbey … I mean …really ? How much for the funeral ? Family getting a ‘taste ‘?
Huw owes the BBC tens of thousands of pounds, surely a shoo-in for the commentary.

Unrelated, I got banned from Reddit for calling the Eritrean a savage for raping an octogenarian man outside a church in Harrow. It’s hateful, don’t you know.
Public Sector gets richer – private sector gets poorer.
“Official figures show that public sector wage growth has risen sharply to around 5.5% to 6.1%, driven by recent pay settlements and NHS awards. Meanwhile, private sector wage growth has slowed to a six-year low of approximately 2.8% to 2.9% as labor market cooling takes effect.”
By all means have a vigil for Arday but do so because he was a victim of DEI and his executioners were those DEI advocates in academia who awarded him a PhD and made him a Professor , both of which were very far above his intellectual capacity and placed him in a vulnerable position.
Currently those guilty academics are trying to pass the blame onto those of us who don’t believe in DEI and to make Arday a martyr to the their cause.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see BLM style riots erupt with Arday playing the role of George Floyd .
The martyr cult predictably getting pushed by the BBC – one feature of their coverage being “bite sized finger food” video pieces that aren’t obviously linkable from their website – unless you know where to look (most people don’t)
“Dover MP Natalie Elphicke told the Commons that the BBC’s “shocking report” contained the “breath-taking” disclosure of free French public bus services being used to ferry migrants from camps to Dunkirk beaches.”

Here am I, send me to the top of this Thread. The MSM do not like Nigel Farage and the Reform Party that he leads. Same would be true of the BBC! The BBC are wasteful on staff salaries, notice periods. Defund the BBC!
Cancel your TellyTax Licence. I was wrong about Amol Rajan co-presenting the TOADY programme on BBC R4. Defund the BBC! Ironically the BBC are advertising the TellyTax Licence on BBC R4.
Uppers! Top Man!
Here am I also, just passing the screen to get the next episode of ’24’ from the box of tricks in the lounge!
The virus has just reached the hotel, and I’m going to find out what happens in the next episode as we speak, but isn’t this symptomatic of the toxic marxism we have infecting us all right now?
Luckily, the programme-makers of ’24’ didn’t have their state broadcaster everywhere, mucking everything up, just the main, serious, and superbly acted cast, creating a great series!
More to come, when I’ve understood what’s happening next, but it’s a damned sight better than a little twonk chucking stupid texts around about lighting fags!
Scrobie, I feel slightly mean depriving our Debs of a chance to have a go at three-in-a-row.
I have just read a slightly confused article by Tim Stanley in the Torygraph about the ‘right’ behind Corbyn and the Reform Party equivalent! If you have an account you can read it here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/08/17/the-british-right-is-now-as-bad-as-labour-under-corbyn/
Don’t worry Up2, I did 3 posts instead!
I don’t have a Grout account, Uppers, but I do have several books of their cryptic crosswords dotted around the house for continuous mental stimulation – do they count?
Hurrah – it is raining as I have started typing in spite of this morning’s forecast that if we were lucky there was one spot on Wednesday and one on Thursday. But it isn’t why I am here!
Watching GB News Free Speech Union tonight there was the usual Leftie . Black Lives Matter was mentioned and he immediately used the words ‘that nobody could argue that…..’ I think it was about the number of unarmed black men shot or killed in the US by policemen. As soon as I heard it I thought ‘well I could disagree’ as I have read that the numbers are not what are claimed by Left activists.
It is the same with climate change. I hear so frequently on tv (but not the BBC because I refuse to watch it) ‘You can’t argue that the climate is changing’ or words to that effect. I could argue that the climate is changing all the time but I am a great deal less certain that many (indoctrinated by the BBC) that man has anything to do with it. I could also argue that the climate is changing every second or millisecond but I don’t suppose me turning up the heating will change anything anyway.
And the same with Gaza. I hear the words..’everybody can agree that there has been a genocide in Gaza’.
It is happening too frequently to be coincidence. I don’t know whether this technique is being taught in universities or whether just been absorbed by people younger than me.
Something I’ve notice and I’m sure I’m not the only one…
The suicide of serial fantasist, Jason Arday, is being turned into another George Floyd/Stephen Lawrence tragic opera, with the likes of race hustlers Diane Abbott Weyman Bennet and Lord Woolley stoking the mob into a frenzy. As you’d expect, the BBC are milking this for all it’s worth.
There are going to be “vigils” and “demonstrations”…Hmmm, we know how these usually culminate. If you’re due to be anywhere near Trafalgar Square tomorrow evening you might want to do a detour.
We are told that the poor lad was “subjected to a vicious witch hunt”. Well, yes he did come in for some stick, but that was to be expected after many of his more ludicrous claims became known
In my opinion, if you want to point the finger, the real culprits are those simpering white women who promoted him far beyond his limited credentials and treated this Walter Mitty like an exotic pet. He was bound to be outed…
And as a contrast…Just over a month ago Ann Widdecombe was attacked in her own home and subjected to the most horrifying and despicable assault by a hammer wielding nutcase. As yet the motives of the murderer are unknown (ahem)…but please DON’T SPECULATE…
Ann had served our country for decades and was a still serving it as a member of Reform. She was formidable.
Ann has now been buried and as far as most of the media are concerned so has her murder.
But trust me, the BBC and their ilk will make sure that Jason Arday is going to run and run.
Though maybe not 600 miles in 6 days…
Whilst I agree with most of your post Jeff, just one tiny issue. Not all the simpering women who appointed Jason Arday were white. I am sure Sonita Alleyne would have been involved in his appointment and she isn’t white.
The film of his Head of Faculty welcoming him and saying he was ‘the best in the world’ was embarrasing even before the stories of his plaguerisn came out.
Jason Arday was a liar and fantasist who had been found out. Everything had been handed to him because of the colour of his skin. He wasn’t up to his job, and his CV was a tissue of lies. He had run out of road. There was no-one left to lie to, so he took the coward’s way out.
Andy Burnham announced on Friday that the government is pledging £65 million to help farmers with the drought. Apparently that works out at £620 per farmer. A politician with any business experience might have asked the right questions to realise that this isn’t going to help an awful lot but of course Andy Burnham has never worked in business. As I understand it, the money is to build new reservoirs. A new tractor costs somewhere around £100,000 each (except Clarkson’s Lamborghini) so the £620 will not go very far and what it won’t do is help farmers this season. Besides for farmers on chalk land for example, the only water available to fill a resrvoir they might build will have to come from rain….and there is drought because there isn’t any rain. Of course for farmers in flood plains, probably the last thing they will want is a reservoir. Mr Burnham needs to take advice from real farmers and not the lanyard classes what help they really need.
And apparently the £65 million isn’t new money but comes out of the existing DEFRA budget.
BBC misleading
Worth watching
Ha just came here to post that video https://youtu.be/6wATROZwIxA
Katie from experience , as she compares her treatment to Arday’s
You put yourself forward as a public figure and you know what the MSM and lefty establishment are like : bullying and harassing
so take it on the chin
Yes of course Tommy, Trump, Farage, Lowe, Musk and Katie each get much more hate and harassment everyday than normal
Further vigils for Arday are set to take place in both Cambridge and London on Monday evening.
Archived here for the usual reason…
She makes a very perceptive point – when she has under attack she had a number of defences – including the truth – but the PE teacher was living a lie and didn’t have the fibre to carry on …..
In a way it’s a bit unfortunate because now the far left DEI gang really can deify the fraudster – and they will close ranks to cover up their sins .
As I write I bet there is another DEI token being – er – groomed – prepared – to take over the role . The next one will have a ‘sanitised ‘CV with the lies removed …..
The frauds in prominent public positions using notional status to fortify their positions have multiplied over the last several decades – it’s really not something new but my perception is that it’s multiplied to the point where you can’t trust anything or anyone – and that’s not healthy at all?
The instant Cambridge announced that there would be an inquiry, Arday resigned. He knew he had no defence. His entire life was built on lies, and when those lies were called out, there was nothing left.
The easiest way out for Cambridge would’ve been to book Arday into resort rehab like The Priory.
It’s not like academic burnout and consequent nervous breakdown is a new thing at all…
Now though, the wagons have been circled and the defence continues…
You are right. When I was at university, I knew several people who had to go into the local mental hospital because of nervous breakdowns and the like. And that was before “mental health” was a thing!
Shame a few of our lefty comedians[so-called] don’t have the balls to do this….
It’s a funny old world where if a man shows a picture of Moohammed he gets so many threats to his life from Muslims that he has to go into hiding….for years….and no-one on the Left says a thing…where’s the outrage…where’s the calls for investigations…where’s the calls of Islamic ‘racism’, where’s the talk of ‘lynchings’?
On the other hand….if you dare to ask questions about the authenticity of the Left’s latest poster boy and then he unfortunately kills himself all hell breaks loose with accusations of racism, witch hunts and lynchings….blood is on the critics’ hands….but of course it’s not….it’s on the hands of the very same Left that exploited Jason Arday and sacrificed him on their very own DEI altar.
Pug – funny – the words coming out of bill Maher s mouth could easily of those of Tommy Robinson …..he goes on a bit ( 9 minutes ) but it’s worth it …. America – save us …nice reference to England at the end …and the idea of the UK turning away ‘gay cruise ships ‘….? Ouch …
It just gets worse and worse

Wanna bit of Monday depression. ? Watch the mark Felton YouTube report of the state of the Royal Navy ….

Yup I watched that video. Shocking absolutely. From Bliar on. Bliar and his Conservative acolytes needs to be subject to the pristine Rack in the Tower of London.
I definitely need to see people pay for the disgraceful state this country is in. At least as a warning to successors who, no doubt the counter argument will go, will not happily join the political ranks for fear of reprisals when it all goes wrong. My argument then would be, develop a system like the Swiss (or is it Austria?) of obtaining the consent of the public by referendum for anything little above day-to-day admin. No postal votes.
The RN has rotted from the inside…. I recall a an officer I worked with who’d taken early retirement in the noughties – he was absolutely incensed that DEI had been imposed and was a major factor in RN personnel planning – operational crew that were “differently abled” and didn’t have English as a primary language being two topics that triggered him into vocabulary fail, spluttering near incoherence. He was eventually picked up by Australian / NZ navy with a generous joining package and a pension….
A decade+ later DEI has infected the Kiwi / Aussie Navies…?

You know I sometimes refer to the UK as ‘third world ‘ yes I sadly really mean it – if I was a politician TTK world accuse me of ‘talking down the country ‘ – that irritating term no doubt the imposter PM will be using ….
Anyway – third world UK – evidence ? Last week we were hit with at least 2 requests – 1 – use less electricity as the grid isn’t well – 2 – use less water …….
I still think getting a water meter saved me huge money as I don’t use much but have a big gaff ( note to intel file )
And for evidence I didn’t even cite border invasion – invader rapes – potholes – Dei academics – failing NHS – failing prisons – overpriced power – dependency on foreigners for defence and food and power …. And a submissive attitude to the EU – oh year killing unapproved politicians and submitting to Islam
Use less water – we live on an Island surrounded by water
Use less electricity – Ed Miliband to use only one kitchen not two.

Earlier the BBC ‘Today’ interviewed (I think it was) James Cleverley on some issue. The interview was rounded off by the last question to do with the dead black professor. What did Cleverley think? was the theme. Excellent reply placing the blame fairly and squarely with Cambridge lack of due diligence / common sense.
Now obvious that the hated BBC will milk the death for all its worth until they come across a person/entity to shoulder all the blame for the suicide.

Currently, Toenails has attracted 11 interested in U.K. politics in… 14hrs.
I can confirm the site South of Crewe for HS2 is now in operation. Road signage and cones out.
Burnham was very keen on completing the HS2 link to Manchester and its obvious he has restarted the project without consultation, regardless of cost. Britain is being ruled by Autocracy and secrecy.
It’s always interesting to note what the BBC consider to be newsworthy…
Top of their newsfeed for the UK is; More than 200 people have attended an emotional vigil to remember Jason Arday. Well, Jason’s top of the list, there’s a surprise.
We’re told about a cat returning home after being missing for ten years. Actually, I am pleased about that, but it’s not really a major event.
And then there’s a rather snotty piece about Reform’s proposed benefits shake up, but…
There’s not a sentence or a syllable about the rape of an elderly man…in broad daylight…outside a church in Harringay…by an illegal Eritrean Migrant. Absolutely nothing…zilch…nowt.
This is such an unspeakably revolting and shocking crime that it should be top of every station’s news agenda. But no.
Mind you, looking on the bright side…the cat got home…
Eritrean Migrant assault case…
An un-named spokesperson for the BBC says:
As a responsible state broadcaster operating on a limited budget, we have to exercise discretion in how we spend the licence payer’s money. Operating dozens of unnecessary TV channels and radio stations is an expensive business, and in consequence we cannot report every story. Particularly when it’s already being carried by GB News, The Daily Telegraph, IBC, The Daily Star, AOL, The Daily Express, Press Reader, The Sun, and many other more reputable news outlets. So there.
Next time, If you know what’s good for you and the country, vote for Reform.
The present lot in government should be put in that comic ‘Dustbin’.
2039. Think about that.
– and… don’t take my word for it:

I dreamt of a King on his steed on Kent beaches slashing dinghies with his sabre then swimming across the channel to the source of the invasion, the Jupiter King President Macron.
I awoke to a King swirling in a toilet like a discarded tampax, the the last words of the tampax King where “We have no borders, windfarms are a blot but bring me money. Inshallah.”
I dreamt of a Prime Minister who knew that a man had a penis, who looked forward to 650 debating for their constituents and who wanted to smash some gangs like his USA President.
I awoke to a man alerting me that I can not use a BBQ.
I dreamt of a Chancellor who knew how money worked, who wanted to reduced taxes and reduce the burden of Government.
I awoke to a man needs more money for defence whilst not stopping one boat.
Reform and Restore should respond to this by announcing a policy of ‘transformative remigration and deportation’ which will aim to remove all illegals, bogus asylum seekers, foreign criminals and economic parasites. Long before 2039.
All companies that participate in the “delivery of asylum support and accommodation services” should be excluded from future government and council projects and have any profits resulting from such contracts confiscated and used to compensate British victims of migrant crime. Their directors and senior executives should be subject to close scrutiny to identify any vested interests and criminal activities, and prosecuted accordingly.

That migrant charter support tender notice has been amended :
Archive of the new one: HERE
The Home Office has changed the tender detail…
The main substantive change is the splitting out of Service User Assistance (and External Assurance) into separate procurement routes. This narrows the scope of the primary “transformative re-procurement” of accommodation and related wraparound services. Engagement timelines have also been extended, and the Home Office is running parallel market engagement for the carved-out elements.
You can track the latest state on the main procurement page:

“We Can’t Vote Our Way Out of This Mess”
Richard The Fourth
Is it only us in the West and similar Nations such as Australia, NZ and Canada that are contaminated with all this barmy woke DIE rubbish.
Is the likes of Russia and the other ‘Baddie’ Countries free of this far left destruction of our way of living.
It’s funny because Russia is supposed to be a far left (communist) type of government yet this DIE crap doesn’t seem to be destroying them.
Why have our ‘left’ been completely taken in by this woke bollox yet the real lefties want nothing to do with it.
I think our ‘left’ are such a bunch of idiots they don’t know what they are doing.
How long would some of these pink haired men women who continuously whinge on about everything last in China.
These same daft lefties having unbelievable groups like ‘queers for Palestine’ who are unaware of what would happen to them in a ‘free’ Palestine.
It’s true the saying but I wish ‘the Gods’ would hurry up and complete their second part of the quote.
“who are unaware of what would happen to them in a ‘free’ Palestine.” We appear to have plenty of money, let’s send them all there to find out.
“Public and media reactions in China to contemporary Western debates over gender identity often view modern transgender concepts with complete incomprehension or skepticism, sometimes treating abstract self-ID notions as a bizarre cultural import, while domestic trans individuals face a strict, binary medical framework and heavy societal pressure.”
I will take the bBC headline at face value:
“Cambridge chancellor criticises ‘racist feeding frenzy’ around Jason Arday”
A bit like Henry Novak the state stoops to the lowest common denominator. Academics are not daft (they may have dropped their intellectualism) and they push at the easiest doors to open.
Whether it Arday, Novak, Pakistani rape gangs, HS2; I could go on; there is a fundamental intellectual vacuum in the UK. It seems to sit with the logic of the adherrents of Marxism; while the evidence says it does not work, it does because I say so.
As ever empty vessels make most noise and the bBC are the ever present megaphone for a failed ideology
A genuine black academic and intellectual, Thomas Sowell, described this comprehensively in his book ‘Conflict of Visions’ published in 1987. I’m not doing him justice here, but basically he categorised people as being ‘Constrained’ or ‘Unconstrained’ in how they view the World. In this context, the constraining factor is reality itself. The constrained thinkers accept that humans are fallible, that human nature is unchanging, that we must rely on experience and tradition and develop social structures that reflect reality (these are the right wingers if you like). The unconstrained thinkers are not restricted by reality, they are utopians, human nature is essentially good, we can make the world perfect and no price is too high to pay to achieve it. They are the liberals/leftists. Oh, and because they have perceived this, they as individuals are morally superior to everybody else and have the right to impose it.
Funnily enough, I don’t recall ever seeing Sowell on the BBC or even referenced. Wrong narrative, you see.
We need a new government that will put Great Britain and its British people First !
Doesn’t the fact that there is a website under the title of ‘Biased BBC’ send a message to both the BBC and the government, that there is a problem ?
Scrap the TV Tax .
There is no evidence that Obama, his campaign, or his administration knowingly accepted illegal foreign money, colluded, or “rigged” the election. Court documents, DOJ statements, and contemporaneous reporting emphasize that the scheme was deliberately concealed from the campaign and candidate via straw donors and false reporting. Prosecutors described the campaign as having been “duped” or “deceived.” No charges were brought against Obama or campaign officials, and fact-checks (e.g., Snopes) rate claims of knowing acceptance of large foreign sums as mostly false for that reason.
Phew, close shave
Looks like the race industry is out in force today yapping ‘race ‘ race ‘ over the dead PE Teacher ….
Yet they refer to him as ‘the first black professor ‘ thus injecting race / racism into the mid from Them .
What would they want from an ‘inquiry ‘? To muzzle the remaining journalists from saying / doing anything with exposes not white crime – such as the fraud conducted by the dead PE teacher ….
I bet they don’t want an inquiry into the use of carter ruck to frighten off journalists or the wrongful use of plod and its wrongful attempt to threaten the press ….
The race industry used this character who was well out of his depth – presumably trained to say the right things in public but deep down knowing he was on academically capable
That demo in traf square could be quite ‘emotional ‘ – let’s hope so …
World at one
BBC back on the Islamic Hamas propaganda train- they got the Hamas ambassador in the studio – his name is Jeremy Bowen – usual stuff about Gaza / Hamas as victim – blame Israel – same old ritual …..pro Islam – anti west anti Israel
Great wailing from the toff white academia’s over the black professors demise.
“A Racist feeding frenzy” they howl.
If we have reached a point where it is only allowed to expose and denounce a serial liar if they are white I would call that reaction much more racist….
Another…
Remember to laugh with diversity ….

Baron Smiff of Finchley
If I put the words here that are my opinion of that creature – the police helicopter would be overhead in ca. 6 mins.
Who he ?
taff
He’s the Labour ex MP who thought that proclaiming that he had a STD (HIV) was some kind of extra qualification for high office and a poet of near Vogon achievement.
The Getty image used in the BBC piece looks like a green screen composite.
Ha, looks like a Vogon !
Does he work for the BBC ?
Taff
media wise – he was sometime secretary of state for culture, media and sport under Blair and a decade as chairman of Advertising Standards Authority.
Did I say quango queen?
I tracked him (and his inane self serving woke twaddle) through his quite awful tenure as Environment Agency chair – absolutely not a fan.
A political winnet with an absurdly high opinion of himself. I couldn’t possibly comment on malicious rumors that his staff nickname is Jabba.

Elon Musk and X under attack for the last 12 hours since he announced that his social media platform X will implement a transparency feature to explicitly flag and display British government-mandated content removal or restriction requests to users. Musk stated that any state-compelled suppression will be clearly labelled, allowing users to identify government intervention versus independent platform moderation. Alex Jones calls on Elon Musk to investigate a 90% increase of censorship on X: https://www.alexjoneslive.com/2026/08/17/watch-alex-jones-calls-on-elon-musk-to-investigate-fix-x-algorithm-change-disrupting-live-broadcasts/
European Commissioner for Internal Markets and Digital Services, Thierry Breton, warned Musk in a letter explicitly invoking the Digital Services Act, referenced ongoing formal proceedings against X, and made clear that if content aired during an interview with President Trump violated EU standards on illegal content or disinformation, Musk and X would be held responsible. The threat was direct. Allow Trump to speak freely, and regulatory punishment would follow. Musks reply to Breton was “f*** your own face.”
Melanie Dawes warned Elon Musk not to allow free speech on X, saying that Ofcom “won’t hesitate to investigate” if Musk fails to censor content not authorised by the British Government. Musk said the British Government wants “any excuse for censorship” and that “illegal content” becomes whatever the political class decides it is.
CCDH founder, Morgan McSweeney, a British political operative whose Labour Together operatives were advising the Kamala Harris campaign during the 2024 election, co-ordinated with Senator Amy Klobuchar’s team, to try and “Kill Musk’s Twitter”. Musk replied on X with three words: “This is war.”
However, legal actions against the BBC and MI6 could mean that some British plots against President Trump will remain secret until after the Florida trials.

BBC News | Mark Zuckerberg says Facebook restricting a story about Joe Biden’s son during the 2020 election was based on FBI misinformation warnings.
The New York Post alleged leaked emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop showed the then vice-president was helping his son’s business dealings in Ukraine.
Facebook and Twitter restricted sharing of the article, before reversing course amid allegations of censorship.
Zuckerberg said that getting the decision wrong “sucks”.

I am sure we all saw the distressing story of the 60 year old man raped by “Eritrean” 🇪🇷 Bruke Desalagne, 33, in Harrow. In court he needed an interpreter, which German-Eritrean @deutscheritreer explains makes the crime even worse.
He writes: “Desalagne is an Ethiopian (Amharic) name, at his age nearly nobody flees Eritrea and if he would have fled as an adult, he wouldn’t need a translator in court, since English is mandatory in Eritrean schools. Pretending to be Eritrean helps in order not to get deported.”
Indeed AI told me that English taught from the age of 5/6 & in secondary school to university the lessons are taught in English.
He is an Ethiopian 🇪🇹 liar too.”

Looks like a lot of whitees there ….bet it’s the whole BBC News room
The term ‘useful idiots’ comes to mind.
But how I wish the centre-right could mobilise as quickly and effectively as the Far Left.
Perhaps we’re all too busy making a living.
If you don’t turn up you are racist?
Personally i almost look forward to the time when the islamist/ , Russia,:or China, or basically anybody who has a proper army takes over so they can deal with these pathetic Lefties and bbc properly preferably not the backward lot .
Quiet news day
BBC reporting on attempts to censor ‘meta ‘ in the US …. Anything which may harm free speech is a BBC dream – the ultimate target being X ….
No reduction in unemployment – 4.9% – a meaningless number due to the fiddling …
It’s a morning of public tributes, apparently.
The Express has: Our hero… Mourners line streets to say goodbye to Bonnie [Tyler]
Meanwhile, the left-leaning Graun and the Indy are “Holding Out for a Hero”
Tens of thousands gathered in London last night to pay tribute to Jason Arday… allegations of plagiarism, which he denied – the Guardian carries a front page feature photo of a crowd – some of them black and it was that minority contingent which the photographer managed to catch front and centre of the crowd.
Ditto the composition of the front page feature photo in the Independent – one also notes identical professionally produced and distributed placards, a crowd of white people, a few black people featured in the front row: Thousands attend Trafalgar Square vigil for Jason Arday… organised by Stand Up To Racism
Who would have guessed there was such grass roots interest in and such a significant spontaneous groundswell of support for this guy and his magnum opus: “An Exploration of Peer-Mentoring among Student Teachers’ [sic] to Inform Reflective Practice within the Context of Action Research”
And there we were under the mistaken impression that universities were storied seats of learning and academic excellence.
In fact what they have morphed into are corporate businesses with the same longing for open borders and corporate crony state subsidies as any other profit conscious globalist money grubbing corporation…
Brexit yields dividends for Europe’s best universities – this from what I like to call the left-leaning bottom left-hand corner column of the front page of what I like to call The Brussels Trumpet or the Mid-Belgian Courier… trading as the Financial Times
A surge in foreign students at Bocconi business school in Milan illustrates how Europe’s universities are profiting from a post-Brexit shift in higher education. EU applicants have been put off Britain since losing access to financial support and visa-free study (FT)
Your Mr AsI has previously shared his pre-Brexit anecdote of his kids coming home from school and announcing there were a new boy and a new girl just starting at their school. A Dutch boy and a Norwegian girl apparently. “Oh, how nice. What are their names?” The answers: “Ali” and “Fatima”
One tends to characterise the non-financial Times as the regime mouthpiece.
What does the regime want to tell us today?
First and most importantly foremost: Children left ‘fixated with violence’ by social media (Times) – it’s an imperative for the regime that ever stricter controls are placed on social media. Think of the children – otherwise people will talk.
Oh, and you remember that Welsh Choir Boy and what he did? Well, you might blame his genocidal Rwandan tribal background or his parents for hiding his psychotic mental tendencies – or even the authorities for not intervening or perhaps for allowing the family here in the first place.
Well, you’re wrong – unmediated social media was to blame: Report backs curbs to stop Southport-style attacks (Times)
One more word from the regime: Tweak to early release scheme could keep PC’s killers in prison (Times) – so that’s all just hunky dory.

China promotes education drive to make boys more ‘manly’
Published

Bomb Iran, maybe using tactical nukes; bomb Oman; why not bomb Greenland / Denmark? Why not indeed. Trumps only “Close friend” (self-declared) is North Korea & Russia. Tells you everything.
How are the dedicated MAGA supporters feeling now?
– Trump hates everyone and likes to be in the news.
+ Trump’s point about Nato not having spent enough on military has come true.
+ Closing the Mexico border was essential as per Ceuta.
+ Stopping China via tariffs importing drugs into the USA to destroy the USA and fund China is important. Remember he added tariffs to everyone.
+ Suing BBC over editing a clip to make it look like he wanted the insurrection.
+ Focusing on Greenland as a weak spot for China to step in, remember Nato sent more troops to scare off Trump (i.e. Trump gets to build up defence using words)
+ Invading Iran shows the USA has an army and will use it plus they have battle hardened troops
– Selling early access to his tweets is corruption.
– Giving his family, who seem incompetent, access to top positions should be looked into.
– Invading Iran, rather than slow and subtle replacing the leaders and allowing the people to replace their leaders, was not a good tactic, on the flip side it shows the USA has an army and will use it plus they have battle hardened troops. Unlike the UK’s “This Is Belonging 2018 – TV – Keeping my Faith – This is Belonging – Army Jobs|UK Army Advert”

Benjamin Netanyahu describes UK as ‘first Islamic republic to get a nuclear weapon’

Did Sadiq take his usual troupe of “aides” with him to Mecca in May of this year?
There is no published evidence either way….
Was that Eid message recorded by Al Jazeera or supplied to them by Khan’s team?
The Burnham Broadcasting Corporation are all over a story this morning to give disabled people free 24/7 bus passes.
Whatever happened to equality?
Also since disabled people qualify or don’t qualify for benefits on their own terms already is this not a way to increase the benefits bill without anyone noticing? Just transfer the bill onto another department. Free bus passes. Fewer potholes filled in.
Our local station was upgraded due to the Elizabeth Line. They put in three new lifts for disability access. I’ve never seen any disabled person use them. One is for a platform where no trains ever stop. A.local school spent £60 k on a new lift to get disabled parents up to the first floor hall. There weren’t any. It was demolished about five years later when the whole school was rebuilt.
At one time every Chemistry department in every University had to be altered on the off chance of wheelchair using students.
The cost of retro-fitting for disability -equality purposes is absolutely ridiculous compared to their subsequent use. What a waste of money. There has to be a better and fairer way. For all of us.
Concrete the country side to make the beauty accessible to everyone! HA HA AHH AHA AHAH HAH AH !
Well G,
I’m not a Trump supporter but here we are.
War between Russia and Ukraine (pre-Trump). Remember Biden saying on International news that a small incursion would be ‘okayish’ but not an invasion of scale or words to that effect. Almost immediately followed by a Russian invasion.
Growing threat of China in Taiwan and many other strategic places, not dealt with by Biden, Obama and others (pre-Trump). The US know the importance of Greenland and Taiwan in terms of the technical war that is on-going.
The likely proliferation of nuclear devices by Iran, not dealt adequately with by Biden, Obama and others (pre-Trump). Should the west let them have nuclear devices?
North Korea, not dealt with by all US administrations, including Trump.
By the way the Obama administration supported the overthrow of Gaddafi resulting in the sub-Saharan African invasion of Europe. It is likely that Trump would not of let this happen by not supplying military (air cover) to the Libyan rebels.
It’s easy to leave all of this at the door of Trump and ignore how we ended up like this. Would have been better if previous administrations had grasped the nettles before the nettles grew too big. Would have been easier for Trump and his voters to have done very little.
Israel and the ME has been a major global problem for decades.
I know, let’s blame Trump for all of this, you know it makes sense, just ask BBC verify. Leave it all to future generations to deal with. Much easier. people have short memories.

Gaddafi wants EU cash (£4bn) to stop African migrants {bbc.co.uk aug2010}
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-11139345
“Libyan leader Col Muammar Gaddafi says the EU should pay Libya at least 5bn euros (£4bn; $6.3bn) a year to stop illegal African immigration and avoid a ‘black Europe’.
‘We don’t know what will happen, what will be the reaction of the white and Christian Europeans faced with this influx of starving and ignorant Africans,’ Col Gaddafi said…
He told them that Islam should become the religion of Europe and gave them free copies of the Koran, after he had lectured them for an hour on the freedoms enjoyed by women in Libya.”

Unrelated, I got banned from Reddit for calling the Eritrean a savage for raping an octogenarian man outside a church in Harrow. It’s hateful, don’t you know.
Public Sector gets richer – private sector gets poorer.
“Official figures show that public sector wage growth has risen sharply to around 5.5% to 6.1%, driven by recent pay settlements and NHS awards. Meanwhile, private sector wage growth has slowed to a six-year low of approximately 2.8% to 2.9% as labor market cooling takes effect.”
By all means have a vigil for Arday but do so because he was a victim of DEI and his executioners were those DEI advocates in academia who awarded him a PhD and made him a Professor , both of which were very far above his intellectual capacity and placed him in a vulnerable position.
Currently those guilty academics are trying to pass the blame onto those of us who don’t believe in DEI and to make Arday a martyr to the their cause.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see BLM style riots erupt with Arday playing the role of George Floyd .
