      Nothing about this on the BBC website: An Muslim man dressed up like a ‘panto’ Englishman to taunt his neighbours boasting of his ‘joy’ over 9/11 and the murder of British soldier Lee Rigby, a court has heard.   But as said before the BBC publishes a long tract deploring a Wikiedia entry, removed instantly, that mocked Muslims, and tells us how offended Muslims are and how … Continue reading →

    Polly Toynbee let the cat out of the bag…after years of insisting that immigration  makes us wealthier Toynbee reveals that the real position is that a bigger population merely makes the economy bigger whilst not actually benefiting anybody: “The whole economy has only got bigger because we’ve got more people.”   There might be a bigger economy but it’s not more productive and is shared out between more … Continue reading →

  Sam Bowman, research director at the Adam Smith Institute, says that “rent control is a stunningly bad idea that could devastate Britain’s cities and clobber renters.

Busy morning on the BBC. Every effort made to debunk claims by Sir Andrew Green’s MigrationWatch (with Evan Davies joining in the fun and games), then a strange thought for the day that seemed to claim teachers were like Christ, and of course a item on how Labour might win the Newark by-election.
