Clockboy’s Sister Act

 

 

  • Orla Guerin retweeted President Obama

    Ahmed’s clock gets the reaction it should have got at school…..

 

 

A quick update on Clockboy’s story….his sister was suspended from the same school for allegedly saying she wanted to blow the school up….though she denies saying any such thing...from Breitbart:

The sister of the boy who brought a suspected hoax-bomb to his Texas high school said she was suspended from a school in a prior bomb scare. Her suspension occurred in 2009 while she was attending middle school in the same district.

Lesley Weaver, a spokeswoman for the district, said school officials can’t release any information about the 18-year-old sister’s episode because the Sudanese parents won’t sign the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, The school has already sent the form to the immigrant Sudanese parents, but they won’t sign it, she said.

The sister is named Eyman Mohamed.

“I wish we could…. provide more information to the media,” said Weaver, whose school district and local police force are now facing worldwide claims that they unfairly targeted the sister’s brother — 14-year-old Ahmed Mohamed — after he was detained Sept. 14 on the suspicion that he had brought a hoax bomb into the school.

The boy brought his device — a dismantled, 120-volt clock packed inside a school box — to show off to his teachers.

The sister claimed after the arrest that she had been suspended from a school for several days.  “I got suspended from school for three days from this stupid same district, from this girl saying I wanted to blow up the school, something I had nothing to do with,” she said, without providing evidence or proof.

 

 

And on a similar note…the fire at an Ahmadiya mosque in London…...The Telegraph tells us:

Two boys aged 14 and 16 have been arrested on suspicion of arson, both of whom remain in custody at a south London police station.  Police are not currently treating the attack as motivated by Islamophobia, a Scotland Yard spokesman said.  But the spokesman refused to rule out racism as a possible factor in the teenagers’ alleged actions.

A quote not reported by the BBC....but why’s it important?  Because this may well turn out to be Sunni Muslims attacking an Ahmadiya Mosque…Ahmadis not being considered ‘Muslim’ by Sunnis….can’t be ‘Islamophobia’ I suppose if Ahmadis are not Muslim.

There has been a spate of such attacks recently, all of them ignored by the BBC though widely reported elsewhere and commented on here.

And what to make of this……Far Left anarchists attack a small business in London because it represents a certain social demographic that the anarchists don’t think should be allowed to live in that part of London…they want to burn them out it seems….and chase them with pig heads…can you imagine the outrage and shouts of racism if this was a Far Right group attacking a Muslim shop in the same way?  What’s the difference?

Hipster-hating mob of 200 attacks trendy cafe that sells £4.50 bowls of cereal while staff and customers are trapped inside as East London ‘anti-gentrification’ protests turn violent

Cereal Killer Cafe attacked by mob as 'anti-gentrification' protests turns violent

 

The BBC gives the anarchists a nice write up and no doubt we will be having their ‘representatives’ being rigorously grilled by Sarah Montague who will tell us of that they are ‘polluting’ the public discourse with their hate crimes and ‘racist’ rhetoric and that they represent a deeply unpleasant and backward regression to the politics and violent prejudices of less enlightened times.  Oh no, that was the BBC’s take on the EDL and Christianity.

Will the Today programme be asking serious questions tomorrow about Labour’s new Leader and his cronies in light of this Far Left attack?

Labour’s hard-left shadow chancellor backed ‘insurrection’ and praised student rioters who ‘kicked the s***’ out of London

‘There’s three ways in which we change society. 

‘One is through the ballot box, the democratic process and into Parliament. The second is trade union action, industrial action. The third is basically insurrection, but we now call it direct action.

‘Don’t expect that change [to society] coming from Parliament…we have an elected dictatorship, so I think we have a democratic right to use whatever means to bring this government down. The real fight now is in our communities, it’s on the picket lines, it’s in the streets.’

In a speech in 2011 to a Right-to-Protest rally, he praised rioters who had ‘kicked the s***’ out of the Conservative Party’s headquarters at Millbank Tower in Westminster.

Unite Union’s leader, Len McCluskey (Who supports Corbyn….Blairism is dead and buried. Jeremy Corbyn is the future)…. is totally on board with this sort of behaviour and approach to ‘politics’ but in BBC interviews in the run up to the election he was never challenged on these well known views…..

When McCluskey gave the Ralph Miliband Lecture  he said some notable things and laid out his political philosophy…..he wanted to follow the vision of Ralph Miliband…..

So let me start on my subject, working-class politics in the contemporary world, with a quote from Ralph Miliband:

All concepts of politics, of whatever kind, are about conflict──how to contain it, or abolish it.”

So if we are on a march towards “one nation” and ultimately “one world”, it is a road that leads through struggle and conflict.

We are taught to believe that democracy is the cornerstone of a modern civilised society; but our Lords and Masters want to define democracy, limiting us to an ‘X’ on a Ballot Paper every 5 years.

This is not my definition of democracy.

They tell us strike action, civil disobedience, direct action and protest are all somehow unpatriotic.

Our history tells us they are not.

Whatever the upshot of electoral politics, working-class politics must grow and develop, based on the socialist education Ralph Miliband called for.

In the midst of an unending economic crisis, with what Ralph would have called a discredited ruling class at the helm, it is past time for the working class to step forward with its own vision and alternative.

 

So McDonnell calls for ‘direct action’..’The third is basically insurrection, but we now call it direct action.‘ and McCluskey also thinks that ‘direct action’, or ‘insurrection’, is an acceptable form of politics….as in perhaps attacking the gentlemen who run a small business selling cereal?

Will the BBC be on their case?  I somehow doubt it. If Cameron suggested that ‘direct action’ on the streets be taken by ‘concerned citizens’ to stem the spread of fundamentalist Islam in Britain would he be met with silence by the BBC?

Let’s hear the BBC ask McCluskey if attacks on cereal bars run by the ‘gentry’ are part and parcel of his new vision and alternative to old Britain?  Does he want a ‘French Revolutionary’ type reshaping of Britain?…

That is indeed a new kind of politics. The age of the conviction politician willing to offer socialist alternatives to the status quo, and confident enough to say we don’t have to take our broken society as an immutable given, is breaking. It may not be the French revolution, but it is a blissful dawn to greet.

A blissful dawn where you can have your breakfast to the sound of breaking glass lit by the fires of  poltical anarchy on the march….bliss indeed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Crimewatch shows the Calais migrants do not sin unseen….. Giles Fraser

According to an editorial comment in the newspaper Westfalen-Blatt, police are refusing to go public about crimes involving refugees and migrants because they do not want to give legitimacy to critics of mass migration.

Police chief Bernd Flake countered that the silence was aimed at protecting the victim. “We will continue with this policy [of not informing the public] whenever crimes are committed in refugee facilities,” he said.

Police insist they have no proof that the rapes are taking place, although a police raid on the facility found that guards hired to provide security at the site were trafficking drugs and weapons and were turning a blind eye to the prostitution.

 

Giles Fraser reports from the ‘Jungle’ in Calais…….

The BBC’s Crimewatch programme came to us from the ‘Jungle’, Calais’ migrant camp where desperate migrants wait for the opportunity to slip into Britain and for the chance to get a better life for themselves.  The programme was an astonishing witness to the cultural diversity and vastly different attitudes towards women that Muslim migrants bring with them , while Labour’s criticism of it demonstrated the party’s ethical, moral and cultural illiteracy.

Walking through the middle of the migrant camp in Calais, the presenter Kirsty Young was clearly affected by what she saw: mostly Muslims, but a few Christians, fleeing all kinds of hell in their homelands.

“Its amazing that the first thing they want to do when they come here is to build a brothel” said Maya Konforti, a NGO worker from the camp. “They wanted a brothel before they wanted a home.”

And suddenly the Calais migrants are no longer some threatening illegal “swarm” but flesh and blood people – some churchgoers, yes, but first and foremost human and individual. Like you and me. With needs all too human…like you and me.

What was most subversive about Crimewatch was that it emphasised a common link that some of us share with them. And it is a link that transcends nationality and knows no border, there is no ‘relativity’….a criminal is a criminal, rape is rape, sexual abuse is sexual abuse, and Crimewatch shattered the myth and convenient hiding place of the liberal cheerleaders of ‘cultural relativity’ which says we must ignore the crimes of people from other countries because in their countries such acts would not be considered wrong, which of course absolves the progressives of the difficult task of actually having to respond to such crimes, to challenge such behaviour and to condemn it….thus causing ‘offence’ to the perpetrators.

But over the past few weeks Crimewatch has had a succession of Labour MPs and the Guardian editor frothing at the gills. “BBC labels desperate migrants ‘Crimigrants’” spluttered the Guardian. “This is how the BBC is spending YOUR cash bashing poor migrants” screamed the Mirror, doing its anti-BBC bit and raising the intriguing prospect of Crimewatch taking morality lessons from the former reader of Asian Babes as I’m assured the Mirror’s editor may have been.

It was an astonishing witness to the power and diversity of the criminal nature, and such a contrast to the perfect Sunday-best churchgoers singing in the BBC’s Song’s of Praise programme earlier. Nonetheless, it was a rather genteel-sounding social worker from Kent who put it simply, giving the liberal do-gooder’s perspective. Interviewed about why he had crossed the Channel to give advice and hand out condoms to some migrants – Young overdoing the “why aren’t you helping these desperate people more” line as a sop to the programme’s critics – he replied with dignity and simplicity: “That’s what the brothel is for…it’s a cathartic release, pent up sexual frustration creates a danger that the feelings will be expressed in other ways such as violence…and after all this is Muslim culture to see women as possessions to be used as men see fit….you’ve got to respect that..it’s in the Quran.”

And that lazy, laissez-faire attitude is so obviously wrong. “Well done CrimeWatch,” tweeted the Home Secretary as she applauded the BBC’s rigour in exposing criminality and abuse in the camp.  In conservative terms, this programme was entirely uncontroversial stuff, challenging the liberal narrative.

Passports are really not that significant in Christian terms. Christians are connected to each other by the waters of baptism and not by some accident of nationality. Thus, in Christ there is no east nor west.  However, Christianity demands of people a moral and ethical approach to life with repsect for other people at its heart.  Whilst the Church looks on benignly at the prospect of open borders it holds its own believers to a much higher standard….if you wish to enter into Heaven you must be of good character and have behaved in an appropriate manner throughout your life….otherwise the Gates to Heaven will be firmly shut in your face.  Just because you are a migrant and a Muslim you cannot act as you like and think it will be accepted of you.  God is merciful and forgivng but even though theologically the core of Christianity is probably Galatians 3.28: “There is no longer Jew or Greek or Muslim … for you are all one in Christ.” if you fuck with God he will crush you and bar Heaven’s Gate to you.

Not a Christian?  You’re not coming in, you’re not welcome in Heaven.  Muslim ‘migrants’ to Heaven?  Bugger off!  It’s the Christian way.  Open borders, no east nor west, my backside.

 

Whilst bringing us cheerful, happy-clappy, sympathy inducing programmes such as Songs of Praise from migrant camps why is the BBC ignoring what is really going on in the camps and refugee centres?

Rape and child abuse ‘are rife in German refugee camps’: Unsegregated conditions blamed as women are ‘seen as fair game’ in overcrowded migrant centres

 

Germany in a state of SIEGE: Merkel was cheered when she opened the floodgates to migrants. Now, with gangs of men roaming the streets and young German women being told to cover up, the mood’s changing

 

Germany: Migrants’ Rape Epidemic

On August 18, a coalition of four social work organizations and women’s rights groups sent a two-page letter to the leaders of the political parties in the regional parliament in Hesse, a state in west-central Germany, warning them of the worsening situation for women and children in the refugee shelters. The letter said:

“The ever-increasing influx of refugees has complicated the situation for women and girls at the receiving center in Giessen (HEAE) and its subsidiaries.

“The practice of providing accommodations in large tents, the lack of gender-separate sanitary facilities, premises that cannot be locked, the lack of safe havens for women and girls — to name just a few spatial factors — increases the vulnerability of women and children within the HEAE. This situation plays into the hands of those men who assign women a subordinate role and treat women traveling alone as ‘wild game’.

“The consequences are numerous rapes and sexual assaults. We are also receiving an increasing number of reports of forced prostitution. It must be stressed: these are not isolated cases.

“Women report that they, as well as children, have been raped or subjected to sexual assault. As a result, many women sleep in their street clothes. Women regularly report that they do not use the toilet at night because of the danger of rape and robbery on the way to the sanitary facilities. Even during daylight, passing through the camp is a frightful situation for many women.

“The feeling to have arrived here — in safety — and to be able to move without fear, is a gift for many women…. We therefore ask you…to join our call for the immediate establishment of protected premises (locked apartments or houses) for women and children who are travelling alone….

“These facilities must be equipped so that men do not have access to the premises of the women, with the exception of emergency workers and security personnel. In addition bedrooms, lounges, kitchens and sanitary facilities must be interconnected so that they form a self-contained unit — and thus can only be reached via lockable and monitored access to the house or the apartment.”

 

Approximately 80% of the refugees/migrants at one shelter are male, according to Bavarian Broadcasting (Bayerischer Rundfunk), which reports that the price for sex with female asylum seekers is ten euros. A social worker described the facility this way: “We are the biggest brothel in Munich.”

Not just migrant women but many German women are victims of ‘Mother Merkel’s’ migrant miracle.

Parents are being warned to look after their daughters. Police in the Bavarian town of Mering, where a 16-year-old-girl was raped on September 11, have issued a warning to parents not to allow their children to go outside unaccompanied. They have also advised women not to walk to or from the train station alone because of its proximity to a refugee shelter.

In the Bavarian town of Pocking, administrators of the Wilhelm-Diess-Gymnasium have warned parents not to let their daughters wear revealing clothing in order to avoid “misunderstandings” with the 200 Muslim refugees housed in emergency accommodations in a building next to the school. The letter said:

“The Syrian citizens are mainly Muslim and speak Arabic. The refugees have their own culture. Because our school is directly next to where they are staying, modest clothing should be worn in order to avoid disagreements. Revealing tops or blouses, short shorts or miniskirts could lead to misunderstandings.”

A local politician quoted by Die Welt newspaper said:

“When Muslim teenage boys go to open air swimming pools, they are overwhelmed when they see girls in bikinis. These boys, who come from a culture where for women it is frowned upon to show naked skin, will follow girls and bother them without their realizing it. Naturally, this generates fear.”

The increase in sex crimes in Germany is being fueled by the preponderance of Muslim males among the mix of refugees/migrants entering the country.

 

Just a few of the rapes that have been reported:

On August 28, a 22-year-old Eritrean asylum seeker was sentenced to one year and eight months in prison for attempting to rape a 30-year-old Iraqi-Kurdish woman at a refugee shelter in the Bavarian town of Höchstädt. The reduced sentence was thanks to the efforts of the defense attorney, who persuaded the judge that the defendant’s situation at the shelter was hopeless: “For a year now he sits around and thinks about — about nothingness.”

On August 26, a 34-year-old asylum seeker attempted to rape a 34-year-old woman in the laundry room of a refugee facility in Stralsund, a city near the Baltic Sea.

On August 6, police revealed that a 13-year-old Muslim girl was raped by another asylum seeker at a refugee facility in Detmold, a city in west-central Germany. The girl and her mother reportedly fled their homeland to escape a culture of sexual violence; as it turns out, the man who raped the girl is from their country.

Although the rape took place in June, police kept silent about it for nearly three months, until local media published a story about the crime. According to an editorial comment in the newspaper Westfalen-Blatt, police are refusing to go public about crimes involving refugees and migrants because they do not want to give legitimacy to critics of mass migration.

Police chief Bernd Flake countered that the silence was aimed at protecting the victim. “We will continue with this policy [of not informing the public] whenever crimes are committed in refugee facilities,” he said.

Over the weekend of June 12-14, a 15-year-old girl housed at a refugee shelter in Habenhausen, a district in the northern city of Bremen, was repeatedly raped by two other asylum seekers. The facility has been has been described as a “house of horrors” due to the spiraling violence perpetrated by rival gangs of youth from Africa and Kosovo. A total of 247 asylum seekers are staying at the shelter, which has a capacity for 180 and a cafeteria with seating for 53.

Meanwhile, the raping of German women by asylum seekers is becoming commonplace. Following are a few select cases just from 2015:

On September 11, a 16-year-old girl was raped by an unidentified “dark-skinned man speaking broken German” close to a refugee shelter in the Bavarian town of Mering. The attack occurred while the girl was walking home from the train station.

On August 13, police arrested two Iraqi asylum seekers, aged 23 and 19, for raping an 18-year-old German woman behind a schoolyard in Hamm, a city in North Rhine-Westphalia.

On July 26, a 14-year-old boy was sexually assaulted inside the bathroom of a regional train in Heilbronn, a city in southwestern Germany. Police are looking for a “dark skinned” man between the ages of 30 and 40 who has an “Arab appearance.” Also on July 26, a 21-year-old Tunisian asylum seeker raped a 20-year-old woman in the Dornwaldsiedlung district of Karlsruhe. Police kept the crime secret until August 14, when a local paper went public with the story.

On June 9, two Somali asylum seekers, aged 20 and 18, were sentenced to seven-and-a-half years in prison for raping a 21-year-old German woman in Bad Kreuznach, a town in Rhineland-Palatinate, on December 13, 2014.

On June 5, a 30-year-old Somali asylum seeker called “Ali S” was sentenced to four years and nine months in prison for attempting to rape a 20-year-old woman in Munich. Ali had previously served a seven-year sentence for rape, and had been out of prison for only five months before he attacked again. In an effort to protect the identity of Ali S, a Munich newspaper referred to him by the more politically correct “Joseph T.”

On May 22, a 30-year-old Moroccan man was sentenced to four years and nine months in prison for attempting to rape a 55-year-old woman in Dresden. On May 20, a 25-year-old Senegalese asylum seeker was arrested after he attempted to rape a 21-year-old German woman at the Stachus, a large square in central Munich.

On April 16, a 21-year-old asylum seeker from Iraq was sentenced to three years and ten months in prison for raping a 17-year-old girl at festival in the Bavarian town of Straubing in August 2014. On April 7, a 29-year-old asylum seeker was arrested for the attempted rape of a 14-year-old girl in the town of Alzenau.

On March 17, two Afghan asylum seekers aged 19 and 20 were sentenced to five years in prison for the “particularly abhorrent” rape of a 21-year-old German woman in Kirchheim, a town near Stuttgart, on August 17, 2014.

On February 11, a 28-year-old asylum seeker from Eritrea was sentenced to four years in prison for raping a 25-year-old German woman in Stralsund, along the Baltic Sea, in October 2014.

On February 1, a 27-year-old asylum seeker from Somalia was arrested after attempting to rape women in the Bavarian town of Reisbach.

On January 16, a 24-year-old Moroccan immigrant raped a 29-year-old woman in Dresden.

Dozens of other cases of rape and attempted rape — cases in which police are specifically looking for foreign perpetrators (German police often refer to them as Südländer, or “southerners”) — remain unresolved. Following is a partial list just for August 2015:

On August 23, a “dark skinned” man attempted to rape a 35-year-old woman in Dortmund. On August 17, three male “southerners” attempted to rape a 42-year-old woman in Ansbach. On August 16, a male “southerner” raped a woman in Hanau.

On August 12, a male “southerner” attempted to rape a 17-year-old woman in Hannover. Also on August 12, a male “southerner” exposed himself to a 31-year-old woman in Kassel. Police say a similar incident occurred in the same area on August 11.

On August 10, five men of “Turkish origin” attempted to rape a girl in Mönchengladbach. Also on August 10, a male “southerner” raped a 15-year-old girl in Rinteln. On August 8, a male “southerner” attempted to rape a 20-year-old woman in Siegen.

On August 3, a “North African” raped a seven-year-old girl in broad daylight in a park in Chemnitz, a city in eastern Germany. On August 1, a male “southerner” attempted to rape a 27-year-old woman in downtown Stuttgart.

Muslim accosts injured Para in hospital

A paratrooper wounded in Afghanistan was threatened by a Muslim visitor to the British hospital where he is recovering.

Seriously wounded soldiers have complained that they are worried about their safety after being left on wards that are open to the public at Selly Oak Hospital, Birmingham.

On one occasion a member of the Parachute Regiment, still dressed in his combat uniform after being evacuated from Afghanistan, was accosted by a Muslim over the British involvement in the country.

“You have been killing my Muslim brothers in Afghanistan,” the man said during a tirade.

Because the soldier was badly injured and could not defend himself, he was very worried for his safety, sources told The Daily Telegraph.

 

The BBC has been reporting that an RAF sergeant was moved from a hospital ward in case his presence upset  ‘other patients’…or rather might ’cause offence’ to them.  There is one very relevant quote missing from the BBC’s reports….even the Guardian uses the quote…..the Sergeant was moved because “they didn’t want to upset people” and because the hospital has “lots of different cultures coming in”. 

Of course when they say ‘different cultures’ they mean only one…Muslim.  Let’s examine the issue….the RAF sergeant has been to Iraq and Afghanistan to help improve the lives of people in those countries, to free them from the oppression and tyranny they have lived under for so long whilst the sort of people who attack forces personnel in hospital are the same who travelled, or supported those who did, to Iraq and Afghanistan to fight British and American troops and  spent most of their time murdering as many Afghans and Iraqis as they could…whilst blaming it on Western foreign policy….the BBC of course backed which side?  No need to guess.

I would suggest the person of a ‘different culture’ be moved (given a one way ticket to meet his ‘brothers in Iraq or Afghanistan’ possibly?) and not the good Sergeant or other service personnel in a similar situation.

The way the British Sergeant was treated in hospital was no different in effect to how the BBC has treated the British forces for years…trying to ignore their efforts to bring peace and stability to those countries, and to demean and malign them whilst all the time peddling a false narrative about Iraq, and British history in the Middle East, a narrative that has long served to fill the ranks of the Jihadis….the BBC has very serious questions to answer about its part in promoting terrorism…even now that narrative is sending people to ISIS.  Strangely the BBC, which repeatedly tells us that Islam is the ‘religion of peace’, that made a programme that insisted Al Qaeda didn’t exist, another that suggested we need to negotiate with the Taliban, and which tried to cover up the facts about ‘Muslim demographics’ in Europe is more than happy to call Buddhism a violent religion, to suggest we have ‘Buddhist terrorism’ and a Buddhist ‘Osama Bin Laden’….Why is the BBC so ready to attack Buddhists (when not attacking Hindus) ….the Buddhists are in a fight with Muslim insurgents in Myanmar/Burma…guess who the bad guys are in the BBC reports.

It seems the BBC hasn’t changed and doesn’t want you to know the real reason the Sergeant was moved….especially as we are in the midst of a ‘migration crisis’ in which millions of like-minded people of ‘different cultures’ are on the march towards Europe…bringing those ‘different cultures’ with them.

The future is so bright, so cosmopolitan and diverse…oh yes...enjoy your kebab.

Mind the credibility gap

 

Jonathan Dimbleby summoned up an alarming vision of Western Civilisation under threat as the dark shadow of a Tory government looms across the land intent on turning back the clock, if not to the ravages and poverty of the 1930’s then at least to 1984, a Western Civilisation under threat from the commercial Vandals and the predations of Rupert Murdoch and his cronies in Westminster, under threat from the People, the People, once patronised and denied a voice, now, thanks to the internet, able to find not only their voice but all the information that the Media for so long jealously guarded to ensure its own dominance.  Dimbleby does not like the People having a voice. Dimbleby told us that the BBC was all that stood between the end of Western Civilisation and those barbarians that want a free for all, a free world, a free press, free speech.  Dimbleby doesn’t seem to want any of that, not the bloggers, not the commercial rivals, not even the politicans were to be allowed a voice…he wanted the BBC to be the ‘one voice’ that spoke ‘truth’ to power and the People…countering the lies of government, Murdoch and the People.  The problem is that his highly misleading claims, his lies, his abuse of his position as a BBC Grandee, his extremely biased attacks on the ‘enemies of the BBC’ in the commercial sector and in government, all undermine his claim that the BBC and those who run it are trustworthy enough to be granted the supremely privileged position as that ‘one voice’ that alone could be trusted as the credible authority with the integrity to produce totally impartial, balanced and fair news and programming.  There is a credibility gap all too obvious when you hear the likes of Dimbleby making grand statements proclaiming the BBC’s worthy intentions and then look at the methods he employs to slate his enemies and  promote the BBC.

That credibility gap is all too evident elswhere, none so much as in the BBC’s reporting into the various child abuse scandals.

What is the BBC’s main concern?  Is it to investigate fully any child abuse claims, to explore the issues, to help bring to justice those who perpetrate such crimes?  Seemingly not.  The BBC’s main concern seems to be looking after the BBC’s reputation and scoring political points against its ‘enemies’.

We all know about the BBC’s slur against Lord McAlpine.…was the BBC all too eager to brand him a criminal because of this high ranking position in the Tory party and his close links to Thatcher….‘ a leading Conservative politician from the Thatcher years.”?  Were they desperate enough to try and smear Thatcher by association on the flimsiest of evidence?

Then there was Savile and the BBC’s attempt to sweep that under the carpet in a damage limitation exercise.  The journalists who exposed the BBC’s role in that farce have all been forced out…..and maybe we know why as BBC bigwig, Alan Yentob, is claimed to have called them ‘traitors to the BBC’.   I’m guessing this suggests he would prefer to hide the truth than allow the BBC’s reputation to be sullied by an exposé of that truth.

Now the Independent reports that Panorama is finally to broadcast its film about allegations of a VIP paedophile ring, originally scheduled for April.  It will now be screened on October 6th, during the Tory Party conference.  Go figure.  Even though the film apparently debunks the VIP paedophile ring claims, or at least those about murder, it is odd timing to broadcast it, the BBC undoubtedly knowing that the film will dominate the Media scrum and overshadow the Tory conference and at the same time have the Tory politicians cornered with every journalist undoubtedly only interested in one subject…definitely not how well the economy may be doing!  A cunning BBC plan?  Just maybe.

The Independent says:

Reports suggested that BBC executives were at loggerheads over the film, which is expected to cast doubt over allegations made by a witness known as “Nick”.  Executives within BBC News were said to be concerned that the programme would be seen as an “attack on the victims” and might discredit its own reports into the alleged abuse.

In other words it’s all about the BBC’s reputation….how the ‘victims’ would react towards the BBC and any subsequent bad publicity coming the BBC’s way.  And what of that curious statement that it ‘might discredit its own reports into the alleged abuse.‘  What are they suggesting, that the BBC’s reports on the VIP paedophile ring may have been less than balanced and trustworthy….seeing as they targeted mostly Tories?

Is the BBC more concerned about managing its reputation than getting to the truth, is it using the sex abuse claims to target the Tories, is there a huge credibility gap between the values the BBC proclaims and how it actually operates in the real world?

 

The Voice

 

If you hoped he’d seek truth and spread a little enlightenment you’d be disappointed, if you believed in his integrity you’d be disillusioned, if you thought he’d bring balance and the judgement of Solomon using wisdom gleaned through decades of mingling with Kings and commoners you’d be disabused of that soon enough.

It is an unfortunate fact that Jonathan Dimbleby is as corrupt, as deceitful, as stupid, as intolerant, as prejudiced, as the rest of us may, or may not, be.

He talks grandly and urgently of freedom of speech, of troubling times, of voices silenced, of living in the darkest of times, he talks of intimidation and bullying, of the threat to British values, of witch-hunts and hate speech.  But it’s all a front, a fraud.  His moral grandstanding, his pious babbling is all a lie.  All this talk of values, of liberty, of freedom of speech is merely a vehicle to deliver his real message, one of course close to his heart and wallet, about the ‘threat’ to the BBC due its charter renewal and the dark forces that seek to detroy it.  This isn’t about freedom of speech and liberty and British values, it’s a tawdry exercise in propping up the BBC’s privileged, entrenched and powerfully dominant position in the media world.

Dimbleby knows the BBC is under threat because…

News Corp and its ilk have a vested financial interest in reducing the BBC’s scope and influence in the hope that the edifice will tumble, leaving a gaping hole in the market for them to fill. They and their cronies in Westminster care not a jot for balance or fairness, but are doing their best to shape the outcome of the negotiations over the renewal of the BBC’s charter – effectively its licence to broadcast.

Oh yes, the old enemy…Murdoch and those ‘cronies in Westminster’…by that he means the ruling Tory government, just elected with a decent majority (against all the predictions of the BBC so-called political experts!) whilst of course Dimbleby has never been elected to his position from whence on high he lectures us all…..a Dimbleby dynasty, handed down from father to son(s)…so much for democracy and all that.

Dimbleby suggests that the power of the BBC is a good thing, a vital thing, when social media is an unregulated and yet powerfully influential player in politics and society now…

In this climate, public service broadcasting is arguably more important than ever but, ironically, under greater threat than ever.

The BBC has become the most influential public service broadcaster in the world. It sets a benchmark for all broadcasters – public and commercial. That is why you should be very worried about what is happening to it.

Now all that’s a bit odd really when you consider what the BBC gets up to…as just today Allison Pearson reports ….My Leftie hell on Radio 4’s Any Questions

She tells us that…

I soon realised with a sinking heart, however, that the audience in the school hall was outrageously biased.

How could it be, when almost all of Cambridgeshire and, indeed, East Anglia, is true blue that the Any Questions audience appeared to be composed mainly of Corbyn fans?

I do blame the BBC, which has to take some responsibility for broadcasting a current affairs programme which gives such an erroneous snapshot of the national mood.

After the recording, the show’s excellent host, Jonathan Dimbleby, sighed heavily and told me it was a constant problem.

He and the whole AQ team found it immensely frustrating that Tories simply did not show up on the night to add their voices. The producer said it would cost £5,000 a week to pay someone to assemble a politically balanced audience.

The BBC needs to take action so that its current affairs output better reflects the views of all of the people who pay its licence fee.

Oh the irony…a BBC programme run by Dimbleby that has an audience packed out with hard-left activists and Dimbleby has the cheek to say that the BBC is an essential bulwark against such manipulation of the media sphere by very vocal and aggressive groups.  The fact is the BBC is the default goto organisation for anyone with a grievance against British society…be they Irish or Islamic terrorists or embittered left wingers who hate the nasty party or black race-baiters….you want a platform to air your grievance, however unjustified?, the BBC’s the place to go.

All the more ironic as Dimbleby says this..

In institutions across the western world, the “hecklers’’’ veto is growing in frequency and volume.

Remember this is a BBC that essentially banned Lord Lawson from the airwaves because he didn’t submit to the intimidation and bullying of the climate alarmist ‘consensus’, the BBC supinely crumbling after being bombarded with complaints from foam-flecked climate ‘hecklers’… a BBC that allowed itself to fall under the spell of climate activist Roger Harrabin and his mate Dr Joe Smith who effectively silenced climate change sceptics and drove them off the BBC airwaves.  So much for freedom of speech and respecting the right to be heard.

Dimbleby goes on to build on his claims about the threat to the BBC…

Today its enemies are more powerful than ever. Some are ideological, some are commercial. The former are to be found at their most ferocious on the backbenches of the House of Commons. Then there are the enemies in the media, who are not so much driven by ideology as profit. Principal among these is News UK, owned by News Corp, which is owned by Rupert Murdoch.

He goes on to whinge that the culture secretary has dared to raise the question of BBC reform…

The culture secretary, John Whittingdale, produced a green paper (open to public comment) that made his agenda pretty clear. It asserted that today, “the BBC is just one voice among many” before going on to ask if the corporation has “become too big, and if so, should it be more focused?” This is what a lawyer might describe as a leading, and a loaded, question.

Dimbleby finishes on this note…as ‘western civilisation is imperilled’...

In this dysfunctional world, the BBC, like other public service broadcasters across Europe, has a vital role. It is a unique forum. It would be a tragedy if any government, wittingly or unwittingly, were so to tamper with the BBC as to turn it into merely “one voice among many”.

Oh, by the way, when he talks of ‘western civilisation being imperilled’ he doesn’t mean by millions of Muslim migrants, terrorism and the looney left but by the Tory government and its alleged attacks on the rule of law,  freedom and democracy. 

Interesting though that Dimbleby believes that the BBC should be the single most important media voice in Britain and not merely a ‘voice among many’.

Fascinating that, arrogant, imperial, just a touch fascist maybe.  The BBC über alles.  No wonder the BBC seems so in awe of Frau Merkel and her migrant miracle message.

I would imagine, well no, facts prove, that the BBC itself is one of the major threats to western civilisation, a civilisation that it seems to hate and seeks to undermine and malign at every opportunity.  Dimbleby and his dishonest and self-serving tract illustrate perfectly the conceit, arrogance and delusions peddled by the BBC as it seeks to protect itself from scrutiny and accountability.

You have to ask how it is that a major BBC figure, one so very senior within its ranks, is allowed to pen such prejudiced and biased comments that attack not only commercial rivals who have to earn their pay and not have it handed to them on a plate, and also attack the government itself.  If that does not breach just about every code on bias and impartiality I’m not sure what would.

 

 

 

Move on, nothing to see here

 

As perfect example of the BBC mindset as you’ll find anywhere surfaced today on 5 Live Daily today(11:15 ish).  Discussing migration a UKIP representative, an MEP, said that a major problem was that freedom of movement within the EU meant that as 100s of thousands of EU citizens came to the UK there was less and less room for refugees and asylum seekers who may be in genuine need.

The BBC’s Clare McDonnell dismissed his statement by saying it was an argument put forward by the Right-Wing and presumably in her mind, therefore not worthy of any consideration.

Firstly it’s not an ‘argument’, it’s not philosophy or an abstract notion….it’s the truth.  Vast numbers of EU immigrants means there are fewer resources to deal with refugees and far less will in the country to accept them here.

Secondly it’s not a ‘right wing’ attitude…it’s one that is the prevailing view in the country….77% of people want less immigration…because….we’re full up.

McDonnell then gave us another insight into the BBC’s mindset as she declared that ‘We’ll move on from migration and talk about housing now’.

Her attitude, that the housing shortage has nothing to do with immigration, is typical of how the BBC approaches this subject, sweeping under the carpet the uncomfortable truth that if you have 330,000 people a year swarming into the UK, or is it over 550,000 last year now?, it should be apparent to anyone that they need to live somewhere and therefore a housing crisis is the likely outcome of importing so many people.

But no, the BBC wants to separate the issues because it supports uncontrolled immigration regardless of the consequences.

The BBC, power without responsibility.  Perhaps the Charter Review panel should start taking a good look at the BBC’s politics as well as its size, scope and structure.

 

And as we’re on the subjects of the EU, migration and the ‘Right wing’ let’s ask if Germany is going to be the cause of yet another war in Europe..this time, ironically, as it tries to use the EU itself, an organisation supposed to force peace upon us all, to bully and intimidate its neighbours into doing what Germany wants…Germany has unilaterally decided to take in a million migrants, mostly Muslim, but found it couldn’t cope and now is demanding we all do as she tells us…or else.

The Express reports a gloomy future as predicted by various people...

“Our borders are in danger. Our way of life where we respect the law is in danger.

“The whole of Hungary and Europe is in danger.

“The migrants are blitzing us.”

 “We’re on the march to war. History is repeating itself.

“It’s a repeat of the 1930s. The crash of 1929, the Great Depression, currency wars, trade wars, world war.

“We’ve got the panic of ’08, the Great Recession, currency wars, trade wars and now we’re seeing the refugees of war sweeping on the shores of Europe.”

He said another big terror attack on society will see an emotional outpouring across the Western world that will then transform into a catastrophic thirst for revenge.

Mr Celente said: “They are leading us to the next great war. All it is going to take is a terror attack and people will be tying yellow ribbons around everything that doesn’t move, waving American flags and we’re off to what Einstein called the whole war scenario.”

“This is chilling. People should be scared to death.”

Now you could just write that off as so much hyperbole and over-excited doom-mongering but it is a scenario that could all too readily come true and is one that should definitely be discussed in relation to the flood of immigrants storming Europe…not just now, or tomorrow or for a few weeks but everyday, every week, every month possibly for years to come an endless tide of humanity seeking ‘a better life’….but what baggage do they bring with them?

The BBC was quite prepared to loudly and repeatedly warn us of an apparent Far Right rise in Europe, ironically whilst at the same time refusing to acknowledge, and in fact doing everything it could to downplay, the very real and growing threat of Muslim radicalism inside Europe. Why is it so reluctant to ‘warn’ us of the threat to our culture, values, beliefs, societies, politics, welfare structures, schools and health services that is posed by the migration of millions of people who have beliefs, values and cultures that are directly opposed to ours?

If you’re a UKIP MEP your views are unwelcome on the BBC but if you’re an Islamic terrorist you must have your reasons, here’s a platform on the BBC to justify your violence.
