‘The assumption that many extremists had mental health problems was wrong. Instead terrorists recruiters ‘vet out’ those with such conditions. “Only 2% of members of terrorist organisations suffer from mental health problems compared with an average of up to 30% of members of the public.” MI5 As terrorists roam Europe, and the world, the Sunday Times two weeks ago titled its editorial ‘Living with the murderous enemy within’ … Continue reading
A Brazilian illegal immigrant who came to this country and got a job at Byron Burgers using false documents and a forged National Insurance card complains on the Today programme (0840) that Byron Burgers used and abused him. Not sure why the BBC felt the need to give him a platform to air his nonsense…it was he who abused Byron Burgers taking a job using deception putting them … Continue reading
The Today programme had an astonishingly dishonest report from Manchester this morning (0819) ostensibly looking at the effect of Brexit upon the city….the city that is wonderfully cosmopolitan and so European the BBC announces as it headed for a pavement cafe table full of foreigners to ask if they had noticed a difference in how they were now treated.

It appears the MET have unforeseen powers of psychiatric evaluation, and the BBC instantly grabbed and ran with the “mental illness” distraction. Then, it turns it the killer was “a Norwegian of Somali origin” … namely a Somalian who had gotten … Continue reading
Just to say that I have zero tolerance of trolls who come to this site for the specific purpose of disrupting it. I will block you and the site will be disinfected. Can I ask readers to email me if you see someone who is repeatedly engaging in such trolling tactics?
The media have an important role to play creating this future; they are not just disinterested bystanders. Whether they like it or not, journalists are not just reporting a financial crisis, they are performing it. The BBC’s new favourite goto expert voice, IHS Markit, the people who bring us the PMI figures that the BBC insisted showed we were definitely heading for recession, has released some figures … Continue reading
