Dementum on the march

 

 

One has to laugh doesn’t one?  The BBC rattle on about abuse on social media and it has to sack one of its own for wishing death upon Zac Goldsmith…

BBC Sack Zac Threat Presenter

The BBC has sacked a radio presenter who told Tory MP Zac Goldsmith that a death threat sent to an 80 year-old Brexit-supporting constituent “should have been addressed to you”.

Then again the BBC is not too eager to delve into who it is that is dishing out most of the abuse on social media to politicians even as May threatens new laws to curb such abuse telling us it is a threat to democracy.   Would have thought the real threat to democracy were the mobs of Corbyn supporters and hard-left activists who use violence, intimidation and mass disorder to disrupt not only lawful debates and discussions but also to attempt to close down businesses that they do not like…this is verging on terrorism and is a very real threat to democracy and social stability.

Whilst not looking too closely at the activities of Corbyn’s Momentum stormtroopers the BBC doesn’t bother itself with the Remoaner’s ‘Forlorn Hope’ of door kickers, Dementum, whose mission it is in life to say the most abusive things they can about Leave voters and Brexiteer politicians in the fading hope that the resultant headlines will somehow persuade everyone to come aboard their rapidly sinking ship.

Something of a mystery that May claims abuse is putting people off becoming politicians when it is high profile politicians who are more often than not just as guilty as anyone else….and indeed BBC journalists who aren’t shy with their thoughts about Leave voters being stupid, old, uneducated, racist little Englanders who have made Britain a nastier and more racist place….and of course not a few commentators and indeed politicians have expressed the wish for the old Leave voters to die quickly.

Impartial civil servants prove their impartiality with very uncivil comments about Brexiteers….calling them ’emotional nutcases’, ‘completely crazy snakeoil salesmen’, ‘rabid brexiteers’ and ‘Nazis’.  Yes, I’m sure every Treasury leak is pure accident and the documents absolutely fair and irreproachably impartial in their assessments on Brexit.

Then of course there are the actual politicians who deride Brexiteers as ‘swivel-eyed loons’, “elderly retired men” without mortgages or young children’,  wreckers, mentally ill, as well as the usual disparaging insults about being uneducated, stupid, bigoted, racist, not caring about children’s futures, old and wanting to recreate a mythical past where Britain was all white.

Then there’s Matthew Parris who is in a class of his own….he dishes out the usual insults as above and does so relentlessly and with abandon….but his favourite meme is that Leave voters shouldn’t be allowed to vote…they are just too stupid…but here’s his latest….Brexiteers are insane zealots…..hmmm…so zealous that they don’t actually believe in what they are doing…thus they are also liars…..yes, can’t quite work out the logic but here, you have a go…..

This is the same Parris who said this about voters in Clacton….

“Clacton is going nowhere. It’s voters are going nowhere, it’s rather sad, and there’s nothing more to say.”

“This is Britain on crutches. This is tracksuit and- trainers Britain, tattoo-parlour Britain, all-our-yesterdays Britain.

“I am not arguing we should be careless of the needs of struggling people and places such as Clacton.

“But I am arguing – if I am honest – we should be careless of their opinions.”

Pretty much sums up the attitude of the Remoaners whose contemptuous arrogance and disregard for the people of Britain is blatantly apparent in everything they say.  Good job we have the stalwart, honest and impeccably impartial BBC to hold them to account and to bring light and truth to the matter of Brexit.

 

 

Votes for Men

Why has everyone forgotten about male suffrage?

While the story of female suffrage is taught at school from a young age, few people today know the long and gruesome history of how men won the right to vote, says Neil Lyndon

There is a reason why our view of this history is as biased, one-sided and prejudiced as the account of the Eighth Route Army that was taught to Chinese children under Mao.

The reason is that the whole truth is extremely inconvenient. It conflicts with the dominant feminist narrative which portrays women as the victims of repressive men, from whom liberation and progress had to be wrested by militant uprising. The true history of votes for women, however, is not a story of sex war but of a continuous progress of electoral reform over a century from 1832-1928 in which women’s suffrage was only one element.

It is also true that, as a whole, that complete story does credit both to Britain and to men whose memory deserves our continuing honour, compassion and respect.

 

Listening to Emma Barnett and Co enthusiastically championing the Suffragettes and ‘votes for women’ remarkably there seemed to be no mention that millions of men didn’t have the vote either…..which kind of puts a spoke in the BBC narrative that not giving women the vote was a political ploy to keep them alone oppressed and in the kitchen.

The Representation of the People Act 1918 gave the vote to 8 million women and over 5 million men….5 million men whom the BBC seems to have pretty much forgotten today.

The whole BBC narrative is one of men suppressing women but ignores the fact that it had less to do with gender and more to do with economics, who worked, who had money and property and who, they thought, had a real stake in the country and thus should be allowed to vote….and keep them in power.

Barnett otherwise was on form as usual…just why we had Juliet Stevenson, lovey actor, on I’m not sure….Labour supporter, pro-immigration and pro-Remain.

There was also Tory Victoria Atkins who has fled Twitter due to the abuse she gets…which immediately made the BBC headlines.  Barnett though berated her for being in a Tory Party propped up by the DUP [called ‘backward and unpleasant’ by Muslim Mishal Husain for its Christian beliefs…LOL]…because that is ‘an issue’.  The DUP are, according to Barnett, ‘uncomfortable bedfellows’ due to their opposition to gay marriage and being anti-choice as Barnett put it….a cuddly bit of spin meaning anti-abortion.    Does she say the same thing about Muslim or Catholic MPs?  Does she berate the Pope who is equally against such issues.

Of course not…it is only ‘an issue’ because the DUP are ‘propping up’ the hated Tories and keeping Brexit on track.  The mass murdering IRA the BBC has no problem with….nor with Corbyn who was vocal in his support for them…and indeed them for him it seems now.

Labour’s Jess Phillips received a much warmer welcome with no difficult questions.  All a bit of a love in today.  Despite a programme dedicated to women’s issues and examining the abuse female politicians get Barnett didn’t raise any questions about Corbyn, Momentum and Phillips’ life under that regime despite headlines like this from last year….

Jess Phillips: ‘Labour under Corbyn feels like I’ve been locked out of my home’

When Jess Phillips said that the misogyny she received from left-wing men was the “absolute worst” they quickly proved her point. Last week the Labour MP’s Twitter feed flowed with “men telling me I didn’t understand sexism, that I deserved it, that I was fat, ugly, that I was probably on my period”.

 

 

 

Playing Muslim

Just another Muslim playing the victim and the Islamophobia card.

Sue at Is the BBC biased? noted that a Muslim had written a piece in the Guardian, where else BBC beside?, claiming that no-one had called the attack by Darren Osborne a ‘terror attack’His starting point was a Times report…

Why was the accused, Darren Osborne, described as a “jobless lone wolf”? Why was he not immediately branded a terrorist, as violent extremist Islamists are?

Well firstly the immediate thing to see on the Times report was this….

Jobless ‘lone wolf’ Darren Osborne held over attack on Finsbury Park mosque

Not sure how our Muslim agitator could have missed that unless he wanted to.  Nor could he miss the fact that just about everyone called the attack a ‘terror attack’….just google ‘Darren Osborne terrorist’ and you’ll find plenty of reports doing so from the time of the attack….

Police now treating London van incident outside mosque as a “terrorist incident”.

Our friend claims…

The Finsbury Park attack is a painful crystallisation of the recent atmosphere of Islamophobia, leaving no room for dispute regarding the immediacy or gravity of this scourge.

In fact the attack was a reaction to the rape and abuse of 1400 white girls by Muslim men and numerous terrorist attacks in this country.  It resulted purely from what Osborne himself saw and read about very real events that actually happened not the result of some fake, anti-Muslim stories created to stir up trouble.  The catalyst, as told by the police, was a truthful exposé of events in Rochdale by the BBC and then the bombing in Manchester and other attacks.  The real cause of this attack, the real scourge, are the various attacks carried out by Muslims which turned Osborne’s mind towards his own terror attack in revenge.

What this article is really about is making excuses for Muslim terrorists whom the author wants to explain away as ‘mentally ill’ claiming that calling someone a terrorist and someone else mentally ill is so unfair…

These discrepancies only fuel Islamophobia further, insidiously promoting division.

It’s the usual Islamist trick of claiming a false victimhood and telling us it creates anger and fuels radicalisation in the victimised Muslim community and of course attempting to blame everything in the mythical ‘Islamophobia’ in an effort to attack all critics of Islam and Muslim behaviour and to persuade the authorities to give Muslims a privileged and favoured status in society….the end game to blackmail them into allowing Muslims to live in an entirely parallel legal and cultural system based  upon Islamic values and laws….not to allow this would only make Muslims angry and marginalised and result in radicalisation and terrorism.

 

 

 

 

Start the Week Open Thread

 

‘One lesson well understood in both Stalin’s Russia and Nazi Germany was that propaganda is most effective when it is backed by terror’

Remarkable what a few bombings, throat cuttings and drive-over murders can do, by fortuitous mischance, for the Muslim community, which of course condemns utterly the terror attacks…but still, eh, why not reap the benefits as the red carpet is laid out with everyone bending over backwards not to ‘offend’ them and to make sure they have every opportunity to exploit the appeasement?  The terrorists are not Muslims, they pervert a great religion which is a religion of peace…and yet we are told that if Muslims are not appeased they will become radicalised and become terrorists…and yet…the terrorists are not Muslim?

Niall Fergusson in the Sunday Times….

We let Lenin rise, millions died.  Now it’s Islamism.

The West failed to stop communism and is repeating the awful blunder.

I fear that we shall wake with a start to discover that the Islamists have repeated the Bolshevik achievement, which was to acquire the resources and capability to threaten our existence.

Just another day on the BBC, just another programme about Muslims, just another day when we are supposed to learn how wonderful and ‘just like us’ Muslims are.  A sleight of hand, so to speak, because of course the problem is with Islamism the ideology and those who observe its strict and oppressive tenets rigorously and completely…..Islamism being totally at odds with Western, Christian, democratic, liberal society.

The programme brings us Mehreen Baig whom you may remember from ‘Muslims like us’, a programme that failed utterly in its intended purpose to act as a vehicle for pro-Muslim propaganda…instead it confirmed everything we ever thought about Islam and what goes on in the Muslim community.  Notable was that Baig fell under the spell of the infamous Islamist in the programme and was always making googly eyes at him….despite his fanaticism and her supposed liberal attitude.  What we saw was that ‘liberal’ Muslims were Muslim first and that it didn’t take much for them to start attacking Britain and British history.  We also saw that the liberal Muslims soon caved in to the radicals giving up any argument and retreating into silence.  The programme was a perfect microcosm of what happens in the real community as determined, intimidatory conservative Muslims enforce strict observance of the ideology upon everyone…non-Muslims as well it seems judging by the BBC’s appeasement….and of course the Trojan Horse plot.

Still, a bit of balance with ‘Fascists like us’  on the BBC next week….making the case that Fascists are misunderstood, marginalised and disenfranchised and really should be allowed to practice their ideology freely without condemnation or abuse.  No?

List the bias here…..

 

 

 

Cabbages and gangmasters

 

The BBC is up to its usual tricks as it disparages and patronizes British people whilst talking of the wonders of the hard working Slav…or is that slave?

In this video the BBC stages a scenario engineered purely to show British workers in a bad light whilst telling us how vital and hard working foreign workers are.  What we get is a bunch of ‘soft’ office worker types, mostly women, who clearly don’t do manual labour and know they are there for a day and that their living, thus their lives, do not depend on them picking a great deal of cabbages.  They have never done this work before and clearly have no experience of the work, how to do it or what the tricks of the trade are, nor are they used to the conditions…extremely wet, cold and muddy here.

The BBC has set them up in a race against European migrant workers in what is obviously a completely unfair comparison…the EU workers are not only probably used to manual labour and bad working conditions at home but also, having done the job here, know the ropes and how to do it quickly and efficiently.  On top of that their pay and livelihood depends on them picking as much as possible unlike the Brits who are here for the day and have no need to work hard.  The EU workers have no choice, the Brits are playing at it for the cameras.

The BBC gets what it wants….the Brits saying it’s terribly hard work and they wouldn’t like to do it, and we really need the EU workers to come here.

The BBC takes no account that Brits receive generous benefits payments and have absolutely no incentive to live on a farm in portacabins far from home with a load of strangers, work in fields in all weather conditions earning the minimum wage….maybe more on a good day.  Even if they could earn more in the fields the calculation would be is it worth the hassle and discomfort?  The answer is obviously no.   The BBC answer….keep paying the benefits and import massive numbers of foreign workers instead.

The BBC also forgets conveniently that farmers have told it that they would start automating things much more if the supply of workers dropped off…thus increasing productivity…and proving that the importation of an endless supply cheap labour keeps wages low and keeps productivity low….in factories as well as in the fields.

When the Tories say they want to make work pay and to get people off benefits the BBC continually attacks them and indeed is aghast at the ‘tone’ of the conversation…and yet the BBC itself is quite happy to label British workers as feckless, workshy and lazy people when it wants to pump out pro-EU propaganda.

Trite nonsense from the BBC.   Shameless propagnda.

 

 

Copulism….’F**k the People’

 

We’ve all heard of ‘Populism’, the word used to describe, demean and malign, those ‘deplorables’ who dare to vote for anything that the highy educated, clever, articulate, rational and sensible beings that waft along the corridors of the BBC deem unacceptable and beyond the pale.

Populism is of course merely another word for democracy.  The BBC et al dismiss it as exploitative politicians with evil intent conning people to vote for them with simple, crowd-pleasing promises and solutions to complex problems.  Hmmm…wouldn’t that just about describe every election where the cry of ‘more money’ is the answer to everything…indeed the very same answer that you can hear the BBC itself promoting everyday, every hour, on the airwaves as it calls for ‘more money’ for the NHS or schools or housing or police or social services or for cancer treatment or mental health etc etc etc?

Populism is just democracy.  We know the BBC doesn’t really like democracy so I suppose it has to cover up that dislike by using another word to express its hatred for the People and their uneducated, feral desires.

There is another word of course that describes the likes of the BBC and its fellow travellers who like to lord it over the rest of us…‘Copulism’.

In essence it means ‘F**k the People’.  Might suggest that is precisely what is going on now with the attempts to betray those who voted for Brexit and even those who didn’t, for the confusion, uncertainty and instability being sown by the mutineers and saboteurs, the Copulists, and the prevention of a single, strong narrative and negotiating position undermines the British position and hands the EU the whip-hand…and should we get a very bad deal and May backpeddles on her ‘No deal’ alternative due to pressure from the Remainder Copulists then the EU will have us over a barrel and we will be forced to accept extremely disadvantageous terms that are worse than we now have….we certainly will lose the rebate and our voting powers will be restricted.  In other words if we try to remain it will be a disaster worse than whatever Remain paint Brexit as….not in anyone’s interests, Remain or Leave.

The BBC and the Remainders have chosen the economy as their battle ground despite Brexit having little to do with economics.  It plays a part but is not the main issue by far….it’s about sovereignty, control, immigration, infrastructure, culture and living in a place that you can call home where you are not a stranger in your own land.  Day in day out we hear the BBC pump out their own negative ‘impact assessments’ [who needs the governments?] of the supposed Brexit effect on the economy….job losses, downturn in production, businesses fleeing abroad, lack of investment, inflation #duetobrexit, a plague of cancer, aircraft dropping out of the skies, no more holidays abroad, food rotting at the docks, a starving nation, swarms of terrorists and criminals, an NHS collapsing due to no more Polish nurses, no country wanting to trade with us etc etc etc.  None of it true.

It seems that both for the BBC and Phillip Hammond it is a few fatcat businessmen who get to decide what Brexit means and the people who voted in the referendum get disregarded, not to mentioned abused and mocked, in their wake.

The BBC warns us that Brexit is a ‘populist’ spasm that people have been fooled into voting for by ‘fascist’ politicians like Farage who offer simple solutions but this quote from German journalist, Thore Hansen, demonstrates the devious double-think the BBC et al have to employ to believe their own nonsense…

‘If democracy bends so deeply to the economy that people think they no longer have any influence on institutions, and even see their interests as being betrayed, then the populists and fascists will have an easy ride.’

Interesting how he can get two contrasting thoughts and express them as the same thing…the people are betrayed by the elite and people who then come along and point this out and offer the people what they want, as in any democracy, this is ‘populism’ exploited by ‘Fascists’.

An elite oppressing and arrogantly ruling over the masses is bad but ‘populist’ solutions are also bad as anyone who promotes them is a fascist….this is just Hansen, as with the BBC, creating his own definitions to suit his own ideas and values about ‘populism’.  He equates Turkey’s Islamic dictatorship with Brexit and says ‘Donald Trump’s populist rhetoric…revives memories of the darkest times’.  So BBC.

Hansen berates the West for ‘a trend towards political apathy and passivity’.  What?  Brexit, Trump, Corbyn, AFD, Austria, Germany’s failed election?  In contrast the problem, the BBC tells us, is that there is too much political activity and people wanting to have their say and vote…voices the BBC doesn’t want you to hear….unless they are Corbynistas abusng JRM perhaps.

Hansen could as well be a BBC journo, closeted inside the bubble, looking out into the world but not understanding, not wanting to understand, and reporting events and issues in a way that just doesn’t reflect that reality.   Witness the BBC’s surprise that Trump could string together words and ideas in coherent sentences and wasn’t the foam flecked demented fascist that they protray him as as he spoke to Piers Morgan and gave a SOTU speech that was approved of by 75% of viewers.  If they’d been paying attention to his previous interviews and speeches they’d have known that but they didn’t…either from sheer ignorance or deliberate, wilful ignorance and a decision to paint him in an entirely negative way in their reports….as they do with Brexit of course.

Populism the problem?  No, it’s Copulism…the elite screwing the people.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Leave or Go

 

The BBC is only now allowing us to know that the real problem with the Brexit negotiations and the establishment of a single, strong, compelling and assertive policy for Brexit is the stay-behind Remainders in the Cabinet who do all they can to disrupt and sabotage the negotiations.  The BBC narrative had always been about ‘disruptive’ Leavers, Boris in particular, who was targeted viciously by the BBC for every comment he made.  Boris would write something in the newsapers about the direction he thought Brexit should take and this was a ‘stab in the back’, a ‘betrayal’, for May and the Government.  Remainers like Hammond and Rudd could do the same and be praised for their interventions…apparently bringing common sense and a dose of reality to the issues.  Never mind that they were actually trying to hijack Brexit and to water down, if not totally thwart it, by trying to soften the terms of Brexit to such an extent that it was Brexit in name only, BINO, or maybe more appropriately Beano.  The BBC barely mentioned these interventions and certainly didn’t protray them as betrayals and attempts to overturn Government policy, as they were, and as they did with Boris.  Just a week ago when Hammond insisted we were heading for a minimalist Brexit whilst May was away in Davos the BBC still refused to acknowledge that he was doing anything controversial or disruptive.

Remember Government policy was…

Theresa May’s first government was committed to a hard Brexit, meaning one that prioritised sovereignty at the expense of close economic ties. She said that she would exclude the European Court of Justice (ECJ) from post-Brexit Britain; she implied that she wanted the number of EU immigrants to fall significantly; and she argued for Britain to leave both the customs union and the single market.

How much of that exists now in reality as the siren voices for single market membership by the backdoor, remaining in the Custom’s Union, staying under the ECJ and allowing the flood of immigrants to continue by other means gain the ascendancy?

Only now as loud noises about May’s leadership are being heard does the BBC start to give us any inkling that Hammond and fellow travellers are the ‘opposition’ and are deliberately seeking to soften Brexit.  The BBC obviously thinks May is on her way out at any moment and is positioning Hammond as the leader-in-waiting who will come to the Remainers’ rescue.  Charles Grant notes May is Brexit’s best hope…and hence why the BBC wants to encourage the narrative that she is wounded beyond recovery and everyone is out to get her….and she must go…a narrative they have pushed for over a year…

May persists in saying that nothing needs to change. Many eurosceptic Conservative MPs are backing her as their best hope of achieving the hard Brexit they desire.

Guido tells us that the FT ran a story about secret attempts to keep us in the EU’s clutches…

“Theresa May’s Brexit advisers” are “secretly considering” keeping us in a customs union with the EU has got members of the European Research Group of Tory MPs kicking off.

The BBC ignores that corroborating evidence that backs the thrust of JRM’s claims and it is now trying to damp down JRM’s rather unsurprising and credible accusations that Hammond is leading a campaign to undermine Brexit and that the Treasury is concocting misleading assessments that are entirely, and overly, negative about Brexit.  Look at this BBC report, it is designed purely to trash JRM’s claims and to back Hammond and Charles Grant, Grant being a man who has let slip the truth about Hammond and the Treasury.

In the Commons on Thursday, Mr Rees-Mogg asked Brexit minister Steve Baker to confirm whether he had heard that officials were deliberately trying to influence policy in favour of staying in the EU customs union.

He attributed the remarks to Charles Grant, the head of the Centre for European Reform.

On Friday, Mr Baker apologised to MPs for saying Mr Rees-Mogg’s account of the remarks was “essentially correct”.

Mr Grant had denied making them and an audio recording emerged where he did not say what was attributed to him.

Trouble is the recording did essentially back the thrust of JRM’s claims and Grant’s own words in several articles made clear that he did think the Treasury and ‘officials’ were seeking to water down Brexit and shape it in their interests.  The BBC makes no attempt to examine what he said and no attempt to assess whether the reality matches JRM’s claims…to do so would of course undermine the BBC’s narrative about an entirely blameless and neutral Hammond and Civil Service.

Grant admits in the recording two things…that Remain MPs will stymie Brexit by trying to keep us in the Custom’s Union and that the Treasury is working along those lines…

It is not certain we’ll leave the Customs Union for two reasons.

“Firstly I’m not sure there’s a majority in Parliament for that. The Labour Party is now in favour of staying in a customs union with the EU, you just need a fairly small number of Tory rebels and we stay in the Customs Union.

“Secondly, the Treasury is determined to stay in the Customs Union. In private, Treasury officials say that we know we’re going to stay in it during the transition and hope that when we’re in the transition, people will understand that the economic costs of leaving are rather high.

Not sure how the BBC can claim Grant does not say that.

Note he also says…

And there is [sic] unpublished papers sitting in the Treasury that certain people are trying to get hold of under FOI requests showing that the economic costs of leaving the Single Market and Customs Union are greater than the benefits of doing trade deals with any other country in the world.”

No coincidence we get the leaked Treasury documents a few days ago that made doom-laden claims about the economy under Brexit…based upon an assessment of what the economy would look like in 15 years…LOL.  They can’t get it right for months never mind years.

In July last year the Guardian told us the Treasury was forcing the issue towards a Brexit designed to please and enrich the Fatcats of Business…

Growing Treasury influence [is] helping force ministers to choose between prioritising economic interests or sovereignty…Internally, the influence of Treasury mandarins is said to be the decisive factor in sweeping away the pretence of a “cake and eat it” option.

Grant in the same article is quoted saying…

“The coalition of forces pushing for a softer Brexit is considerable,” Grant said. “The Treasury, long an advocate of retaining close economic ties to the EU, is newly emboldened.”

Pretty clear…the Treasury is looking for a Brexit that completely ignores the referendum result and the ‘Will of the People’.

Here he is in his own article…

Britain prepares for a softer Brexit

Just a handful of pro-EU Conservative MPs could defeat the government, if they joined forces with the opposition, most of which wants a softer Brexit.

The coalition of forces pushing for a softer Brexit is considerable. Business lobbies note that they have more access to senior figures in the government than they did before the election, and they are exploiting that opportunity to push for a rethink. The Treasury, long an advocate of retaining close economic ties to the EU, is newly emboldened. Before the election, Chancellor Philip Hammond was expecting the sack, but the weakness of the prime minister means that he is now unsackable, and he is making a strong case for a business-friendly Brexit.

Access to EU labour is probably the number one concern of businesses in the UK; the Treasury, representing their views, may well win much of the argument.

Indeed here’s the Guardian admitting Hammond is lobbying for Big Business…hilariously telling us ‘The people want a sensible Brexit’…as if he is concerned at all what ‘the people’ think…..

Chancellor welcomes business leaders’ call for indefinite delay to leaving single market as Liam Fox appears to challenge his stance

Note this though, and contrast it with the rhetoric today about the single market and custom’s union…

He said he did not believe it would be “legally or politically possible” to remain in the single market or customs union after Brexit – as that would limit the UK’s ability to control immigration or make trade deals.

How times change…Hammond is now trying to steer us into accepting both by whatever devious means he can invent to keep us in them, Brexit by name only.

It is astounding that both the BBC and Labour are onboard for this hijacking of Brexit by Big Business.  They have campaigned relentlessly against Big Business and Capitalism and yet put all that aside when it comes to the EU and staying in.  Suddenly the interests of Big Business come first, the people, the environment and the anti-commercialism, anti-Capitalism ‘Occupy’ narrative, get shelved as they clearly now think staying in the EU is the greater good and that everything else can be sacrificed for that.

 

Weekened Open Thread

 

A salacious and very dodgy dossier on Trump produced by a man who was ‘desperate’ to stop him being elected and paid for by the Democrats was pretty much accepted as ‘fact’ by the BBC that had to be unproved rather than proved.  A massive and extremely damaging exposure of US intelligence material by Snowden , who was quite likely a Russian spy and not a whistle-blower, was championed by the BBC as a necessary leak that revealed the extent of US surveillance of communications rather than the treacherous and dangerous betrayal that it really was especially considering we already knew that the US could ‘hoover up’ just about every communication by phone or on the internet at will…so Snowden’s ‘revelation’ was nothing new there but damagingly also revealed US intelligence techniques and exposed its agents to likely capture and possible death.  Contrast how the BBC treated the leaked emails from the Democrats and Clinton, the BBC, not at all interested in their content, instead preferred to concentrate on who leaked them and to try and link the leak to the Russians and by association Trump.  The BBC did all it could to dismiss the emails as irrelevant and to undermine their importance.  A similar tactic is being employed with the ‘memo’ that is said to show the FBI’s actions were politicised and in concert with the Democrats.  The BBC is doing all it can to discredit the memo and adopts an entirely negative and critical tone towards it giving more space and credibility to the Democrat/FBI voices that try to cast doubt upon it than on examining the truth.

All very telling about how the BBC sees the world and what highly partisan messages it wants to brainwash its audience into believing.

Anymore BBC bias…list it all here…

 

Must be a full moon

The completely barking, lying and two-faced Anna Soubry was given plenty of airtime by the BBC to blame legitimate newsaper reports of her behaviour for alleged death threats…..

Ex-Tory minister Anna Soubry says her office has received 13 death threats since a newspaper front page named her as one of 15 “Brexit mutineers”.

The pro-EU Remain supporter said the police took the threats seriously and had passed two cases to prosecutors.

She said she had been “really quite frightened” and blamed the threats on Wednesday’s Daily Telegraph front page.

The paper’s editor defended what he called “the legitimate actions and language of a free press”.

Ms Soubry had previously described the headline as a “blatant piece of bullying”.

She added: “If the Telegraph had not printed that headline those death threats would not have come through – that is a fact.”

However….

The article also pointed out that Ms Soubry had described her inclusion in the front page as a “badge of honour”.

 

Today we have BBC radio silence as Soubry launches her own assault on Brexiteers calling them mentally unstable.  She doesn’t like being called a ‘mutineer’, which she is as she tries to overturn Brexit in defiance of government policy and British democracy, but was happy yesterday to call Brexiteers ‘wreckers’…and of course she wasn’t shy about abusing Leave voters whom she labelled racists, stupid, uneducated and bigoted.

The Mail reports her latest outburst:

Fury as Remainer Anna Soubry says Brexiteers have mental health issues

Anna Soubry last night provoked fury after she suggested that Brexit-supporting Tory MPs have mental health issues.

The diehard Remainer launched a scathing attack on her ‘hard Brexiteer’ colleagues, saying they would ‘destroy’ the party and the Prime Minister to get the deal with Brussels they want.

The former minister claimed that 35 of her fellow Tories had been ‘banging on about Europe’ for decades in a way that was ‘not particularly good for their mental health’.

She said: ‘This madness has to stop. Now if we were in the middle of the summer I might say that it was an over-exposure to a hot sun that seems to have caused a collective outbreak in the Government of a form of madness.

‘Their inability to grasp Brexit and do the right thing frankly is now at a point where, as I say, it has got to stop.’

Last night a Brexit-supporting Tory MP said: ‘Anna Soubry is regarded by the parliamentary party, to a man and woman, as completely barking, so it is rich that she would say that.’

 

Soubry played the victim card and the BBC gave her a shoulder to cry on,  now when she uses exactly the same type of language and tone that she complained about the BBC is silent.

 

 

 

 

Tommy Knockers

Tommy Robinson was on Newsnight apparently giving them both barrels.  I haven’t seen it yet but in the meantime here’s his reaction on Twitter to being blamed for the Finsbury Park terror attack:

 

https://twitter.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/959124908134535170

https://twitter.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/959140221597159424

 

https://twitter.com/TRobinsonNewEra/status/958837013754601473

 

Just watched the Newsnight inquisition….shameless and dangerous attempt to blame the terror attack on Robinson.

Wark quotes part of a tweet without the context and makes it appear Robinson wants a ‘day of rage’ after Manchester.  Robinson nails her for her lie and she tries to dodge replying by changing the subject.

She claims she is not blaming Robinson for the attack but goes on…‘All I am saying’….that the tweets are hate speech and are responsible for the attack…she then makes an astounding accusation ‘You encouraged him to take action [ie terror]..this is about the rise of right-wing [not Far-Right?] terror…your comments were a contributory factor‘.

Might suggest Wark could well find herself in court for that massive and dangerous lie…already Robinson has received many death threats and a family in a house he previously occupied is under police protection….due to the lies of the media.

Robinson finishes by pointing out that it was the BBC drama about Rochdale that actually ‘radicalised’ Osborne and he suggests Wark should get in the producer of that programme and ask him if he is responsible for the terror attack.  Good point.  Good luck with that.
