    Yet another case of Asians , mainly or exclusively Muslims, conducting industrial scale abuse of very young white girls. As with so many of the other cases the council seem to have known about it but did nothing. The BBC, true to the corrupt and disgusting standard of reporting that we are becoming used to, allowed a Muslim council official to claim that ‘statistically there are more cases of white on white abuse’, without any attempt to challenge this rubbish. Presumably hoping to make listeners think that the epidemic of abuse that we are witnessing in our midst is not down to Muslims.
    The BBC should be rooting this abuse out. They should be running investigations into the reasons why Muslim men abuse white girls apparently with the consent of council officials and police up and down the land. Instead the BBC acts as an apologist for Islam and the perpetrators and tries to leave the impression that the girls are at least in part complicit in their own abuse and that white men are just as likely to abuse girls as Muslims.
    Really people should ask themselves why should we pay a BBC Tax when the BBC has such an anti British bias and is quite happy to suppress the truth and tell outright lies in support of its multiculty goal.

      By 5.50 pm PM had got worse! We had a 5 minute piece from a Muslim woman given the platform to tell us all how Islam was a ROP and how upset she was by the PMs speech urging Muslims in the UK to do more to oppose radicals in their midst. It is clear that, at best ,the BBC is going to maintain its policy of moral relativism , at worst, the BBC is going to become even more pro Islam and anti Christian/white Brits.
      If the BBC wants to consult the people about Charter Renewal we should all make sure that their love of Islam and hatred of Britain and the British, is the key battle ground.

      This is the most shameful episode in the history of any nation. Cant think of any incident in history where the authorities knowingly allowed brutal gang rapes of tens of thousands of young White girls by immigrant gangs of Pakistani “heritage”.
      War crime of the worst sort, allowed by an authority on their own kith & kin young girls, in peacetime.

      No parallel anywhere, anytime. Period.

    I don’t know where to start with this one. It’s a one-sided stitch up throughout, so I’ll just mention the first major irritant: The presenter talks about GI’s hero, Martel, talking about how he “removed Muslims from France….violently”.

    What she fails to mention is that he was removing an invading army from France. FFS.

        The members of Generation Identitaire (GI) tried to respond to this BBC biased woman, who was fixated with their resistance to the Islamification of France and the rest of Europe. For her Islamophobia was a term with meaning and she equated it it with racism. But that is the BBC left – argument by caricaturing the other person. GI is arty farty in a peculiar French way, but resonates with respect for French/European traditions, such as respect for the family, history, and resistance to multiculturalism. A brief account of their origins and development is in this link, but I suggest checking out their FB pages. They also exhibit a sense of humour, as when they called upon a militant feminazi location handing out flowers and Valentine cards.

        There is no point in blaming Muslims for what is happening in the UK, be it rapes on an industrial scale, honour killings, the extension of shari’a by stealth, hatred preached in mosques, and the continuous threat of terrorism from within, leading to harsher security measures by the state on all of us.

        Muslims are doing what they are required to do as required by their religion. Islam makes it quite clear that that is the intent. Anjem Chaudary also has made that clear for decades. No, the fault lies with us. And if we didn’t know this would happen when the idiot and ignorant political elite allowed Muslims into the country, then that is our misfortune for continuously electing them.

            I’m certain of that only if they dont fall for the “victim strategy” that Muslims are expert in. We see this after every major terrorist act since 9/11. Before the bodies are cold, Muslims are claming that they are the victims, and they are deadly afraid of a “backlash” – which never seems to happen. And ocourse an hijab was tugged by some racist Islamophobe. Even the last is never substansiated.

            Bear in mind, that the BBC will be on the Muslim victimhood mongers, unless the government warns the BBC, that they wont tolerate that attitude.

        Terrorism is rife in the UK. Tens of thousands of young English girls have been brutally raped, and the BBC has hid that from the people.

        It is not safe for the British servicemen and women to walk the streets of Britain. Yes Britain, not Iraq.

        It is not safe for the British police to arrest people in Muslims areas, and this BBC girl cannot what Islam/Muslims are doing to Britain.

        Why? Because for this girl, the only reality is what the BBC broadcasts. If the BBC did not broadcast that tens of thousands of young English girls were brutally raped by Muslims, then it did not happen, and anyone who says otherwise is an Islamophobe.

        Now that the BBC is admitting that there were some rapes, but by Asians, I’m certain this girl beleives that “Asians” were responsinbe for some of these rapes.

        This young girl has been thoroughly brainwashed by the BBC . To be pitied rather then pilloried.

      The exiled Chaldean Catholic archbishop of Mosul, Iraq, is warning westerners about welcoming an increasing number of Muslims into their countries, naively believing that they too believe in democratic principles.

      “Our sufferings today are the prelude of those you, Europeans and Western Christians, will also suffer in the near future,” said Archbishop Amel Shimoun Nona in an interview by Corriere della Sera. “I lost my diocese. The physical setting of my apostolate has been occupied by Islamic radicals who want us converted or dead. But my community is still alive.”

      The archbishop’s interview was reported by the blog Rorate Caeli.

      The archbishop warned: Please, try to understand us. Your liberal and democratic principles are worth nothing here. You must consider again our reality in the Middle East, because you are welcoming in your countries an ever growing number of Muslims. Also you are in danger. You must take strong and courageous decisions, even at the cost of contradicting your principles. You think all men are equal, but that is not true: Islam does not say that all men are equal. Your values are not their values. If you do not understand this soon enough, you will become the victims of the enemy you have welcomed in your home.

      We don’t seem to realize how close we came to sink in perpetual barbarity, just as the Islamic world is. We don’t seem to realise, that had it not been for the brave Christian soldiers at Vienna, Lepanto and Potiers, there would be no Western civilisation. Or for that matter, art, music, engineering and science, and all the rest that Western civilisation is, which has become the envy, and template for the rest of the world.

      Edward Gibbon noted five signs that presaged the collapse of the Roman Empire:

      1) Ostentatious displays of wealth.
      2) A preoccupation with sex.
      3) A huge gap between the rich and the poor.
      4) Freakishness in the arts and outlandish enthusiasms pretending to be creativity.
      5) A strong desire to live off the state.

      All these traits are exhibited in present day society.

    Asif Hussain, 33,
    Arshad Jani, 33,

    Taimoor Khan 28,
    Akbari Khan, 36,
    Jerome Joe, 35,
    Sajad Ali, 35
    Sohail Qamar, 41

    If I can find their names and ages so easily on the web carried by mainstream left wing media, why is the BBC so coy about telling us, and so concerned about covering up their identity?

    Seems like it was much the same in Rotherham.

      Why indeed.

      As I’ve said, the 1400 in Rotherham is merely the tip of the iceberg. The real figure is quite likely in the 30,000 mark, if not higher. Such is the scale of this war crime, that every suberfuge/tactic is going to be employed to bury it. No Chief constables are going to be investigated as they will immediately point the finger upwards.

      The EDL tried but they were demonised, and Tommy Robinson incarcerated without charge.

      I dont blame the establishment for doing what it is doing now to bury the crime. Such is the scale of the war crime, that it has the potential to destroy the UK.

    BBC news report on October introduction of carrier bag tax – Totally welcoming and uncritical with no opposing views presented. I can’t remember any other government policy announcement greeted so uncritically. Reasons for objecting include:

    – Forcing the reuse of carrier bags for raw meat could lead to food poisoning.

    – Modern carrier bags have negligible weight and environmental footprint.

    – The outer carrier bag is insignificant compared to the individual packaging of every product. Even a packet of biscuits uses more materials.

    – It’s just another unnecessary tax on the poor

    Trust the BBC to offer totally one-sided support to idiotic new green taxes.

      The BBC can be relied on to uncritically support any measure deemed to be ‘Green’. No doubt they would try to claim that ‘environmentalism’ isn’t political but, off course, it most certainly is when it is hijacked as a cloak to wrap around Marxist ideas in an attempt to make them more palatable.

      The carrier bag tax is a stupid, cynical, token measure. Just the sort of thing the BBC would normally be expected to be critical of.

      Quite. I have always said that carrier bags are an ideal way to sequester carbon and prevent it from entering the atmosphere. Provided they are not allowed to break down at all.

      We should all be encouraged to use as many plastic carriers as possible, and ensure they are placed in landfill, as a way of recycling petrochemicals straight back into the ground.. In fact, they should be subsidised, not penalised.

      Sloppy thinking there, Greenies!

        Because it is axiomatic for the BBC that Islam is the only Religion of Peace. There is a contradiction if people who commit obscene acts of violence also claim to belong to an Islamic state. Either these people are deluded, or don’t understand Islam, or are Jewish/UKIP agents provocateurs trying to blacken Islam. It’s not the state part of the designation that is “so called” but the Islamic bit. The state can”t have anything to do with Islam by definition. As Christianity is not the ROP, there is no contradiction when Christians commit obscene acts of violence – they are not votaries of the ROP.

    I foolishly turned on Any Questions tonight but was pleasantly surprised to hear Frank Field explain why a discussion of “British values” was irrelevant before uncontrolled mass immigration, namely because Britain was a “hideously white”, more or less cohesive monoculture, acting British was essentially the result of being raised British. There seemed to be a fleeting grasp that this was the case. But, of course, some leftist twat only has to pipe up with “something must be wrong with Western Society”, the insight evaporates, and the the the panel’s multicultural blinkers are safely back in place. It may be true that silencing non violent extremists will now destroy our freedom of speech, but all that was preprogrammed with the mass colonisation of Britain by people who had no understanding of the British way of life and no desire to change their worldview to participate in it. Secular Turks have been writing for decades that Islam and Democracy are not compatible. If that is true for Turkey who but a bufoon would think it less true for Britain.

      I’m glad you switched on and made this posting ID. ‘The insight evaporates’ – you nailed the common BBC dumbing down phenomenon in three words. Well done. This is clear bias against allowing reasoned arguments to be completed and explored. A very common BBC bias type, indicative of the cultural prejudices, capabilities and capacities of its employees.

      It also gives me the opportunity to say what a reasonable, reasoning, intelligent and wise man I think Frank Field is, even if he does remain a Labour loyalist. He deserves more air time and a better platform to explain his take on EU membership, border and immigration controls, social cohesion/division and their influence on our ability to plan our public services. I hope Breitbart give him that platform. They are a political news outlet which appear to be interested in a positive future for our nation, and they would do well to provide Frank Field with a medium to express his perspectives, without the noise and interference that comes with the BBC.

    To cheer us all up I will tell you of a visit this week to one of my grandson’s primary school leaving service in his local church .
    A village somewhere in England. The church goes back to Saxon times .The village has an old English name.
    It is a fine place to live and bring up children. It is not multicultural or multiracial in any way at all. It is as it has been for generations..English through and through and we who are of that stock know exactly what that means.
    That is has survived is remarkable but there are far more places like this than our liberal elite would admit to and no doubt the BBC would rather they did not exist. After all they do not reflect the new England the cultural marxists dream of forcing into being.
    The faces of the children and the congregation could come from any time in the last thousand plus years.
    Simply put they are the people of old England and they are not to be trifled with much longer.
    The villlage is very popular and the funny thing is that incomers are exactly like the residents. I wonder why?
    The children are well behaved .Polite and hard working and have achieved much.
    It is not that sort of school you see on the news items so beloved by our BBC/liberal media. The average producer/reporter would run a mile from it.
    It is a little miracle that it still exists in 2015. The elite will destroy it and the village if it gets the chance and it is our task to stop them.
    In the cultural war for this old land we cannot afford to listen to their arguments or give them the satisfaction of allowing them to attack our culture on their terms.
    I do depise the BBC and this village is a main reason why. It exists despite the propaganda pumped into us and our children for over 50 years now.
    A real English trait is stubborness and never was it needed more .

      I live in a village like that, with a school like that next door. My two grown-up sons live in other villages nearby and my grandson goes to that kind of school. None of us are native to the area, but we have assimilated completely. My grandson plays soccer for the village team against similar kids from similar villages, my daughter-in-law rides at a local equestrian centre and our family business is thriving.

      It’s the kind of place the BBC hive-dwellers hate and detest.

      The villages are becoming the boltholes of the English. We are finding cultural as well as physical refuge in the society of our own kind. The metropolitan centres beloved of the “liberal” elites who populate the media and political bubbles are becoming foreign wastelands as more and more English flee to the Shires and they are replaced with more and more incomers, who share neither our language, our culture or our values. The more this happens, the faster the trend will accelerate, as the cities become even more unbearable than they are now.

      Already, houses, for sale or for rent, are snapped up in a matter of days and always by native English. The gentle, very English, self-imposed apartheid will become even more pronounced as time goes by, until there will actually be two distinct and discrete countries. Ultimately, when the fighting starts (as start it must……no population in human history has EVER willingly and peacefully surrendered their homeland to an invader), it will be from the villages and the Shires that we will launch the raids and then the full-scale attacks that will eventually recover our country.

      What a wonderful future our generation will bequeath to our children and grandchildren.

          Quite correct DS – that is why it is so dangerous to devolve greater powers to the “Northern Powerhouse” (wtf?) cities as Osborne proposes. As the demographic of these places become increasingly Islamic in character which leads to more white flight: you will end up with similar situations as that which evolved in Tower Hamlets; but on a much, much bigger scale and with far, far larger council budgets.

    It’s the news the BBC misses that shows where they come from.

    After reading quite a few articles about a rather controversial remark that Mrs. Clinton made about “young black man in hoodies”, I went to the BBC site and there to my surprise was an article headlined “Hilary troubles”. Oh ho! says I, at last they are listening to their critics. Then I clicked on the article. It is all about Hilary’s email troubles.

    There is not a single word that I can find on the BBC site concerning this:

    “I mean if we’re honest, for a lot of well-meaning, open-minded white people, the sight of a young black man in a hoodie still evokes a twinge of fear,” Clinton said.

    http://thefederalist.com/2015/07/23/hillary-clinton-lets-be-honest-black-men-in-hoodies-are-scary/

    As many US commentators (of a certain persuasion) are saying, just imagine if it had been a Republican who said that? I can certainly imagine that if Donald Trump had said it, the story would be plastered all over the BBC from now until another Republican made another controversial remark.

    The BBC have been running the claim by Barnados that they told the council in 2008 that abuse might have been happening. I find any claim by Barnados extremely dubious given that their Head, Martin Narey ex civil service ‘diversity champion’ (read chief PC enforcement officer), refused to accept that there even was a problem with the rape of white girls by Pakistani Muslim gangs.

    We are fortunate that this is still a matter of record:

    “I certainly don’t think this is a Pakistani thing. My staff would say that there is an over-representation of people from minority ethnic groups – Afghans, people from Arabic nations – but it’s not just one nation.””

    A retired Police Chief Superintendent from Leeds who had also drunk the coolaid said

    “I’m not suggesting, and I do not think anybody is, that it is a problem within a community,”

    What this country so very badly needs is an independent unbiased broadcaster, to look back in the very recent history. To extract the comments made by the loons in charge of public services and charities, and to present those individuals with their own idiocy !

    Political Correctness is a monster which needs to be dragged out of the shadows into the glaring light of day for the people to see it for what it is.

    After the Heywood case, Jack Straw made certain comments about Pakistani Muslims grooming white children. Fascists within the Labour party attacked him for ‘stereotyping’ their favourite brown eyed boys.

    All these people need to be dragged in front of a camera and made to explain why they said the things they did.

      So of these questions they have asked so I’d be a bit careful if I were you.

      In question 4 you make the assumption that they are not attacking Muslim girls, yet this is known to not be the case.

      Question 2
      They do attack vulnerable Muslim girls, although this might not be the same gangs / people.

      Question 3
      The consequences of doing so are very limited because of culture / Islam.
      If a girl is no longer a virgin then she will be difficult for the family to sell / marry off, and if the attacker is a family member, and they often are because of the size of the extended families, then a prosecution would bring shame / dishonour on the family.
      So for those reasons it is rare for it to be reported to the Police.

      Question 5
      Yes it does with men raping girls as well as boys, unreported for the reasons above.

      Question 6
      For those few who are reported it depends on where they are and who they are.
      A member of a powerful warlord family in the North of Pakistan is unlikely to have anything happen. A low status family in the South would probably be lynched by a mob.

      There has been a program about paedophilia in Pakistan.

            It might be said that these questions are perhaps better not asked!

            The assertion by those on the left that ‘paedophilia is deeply woven into the fabric of our society’ is I believe an attempt to make the UK appear just as bad as Pakistan is, and to give a foothold to those who wish to say that we are no different to them, and that Islam is not the cause.

            The fact that a Pakistani Judge can regard paedophilia as preferable to Christianity illustrates how acceptable and normal paedophilia is in Pakistani culture and how intolerant they are of other faiths.

            It might well be said that they are indeed victims, but not in the way the BBC sees them. In the Fascist oppressors heads Pakistanis and their culture are perfection personified, anyone who dared to challenge their culture was declare a ‘racist’ and all debate closed down. Now we see the results of that idiocy.

            I remember two Jags Prescott telling us about getting the best from other cultures, and yet his party did nothing to extract that, while eliminating the bad. All the Fascists left us with is the worst from each culture because of their insanity.

    For the benefit of any BBC journos sniffing around this site, ‘migrant activity’ is where somebody arrives in the UK through the correct channels bearing their passport and requests temporary permission to visit or has made official arrangements to live/work in the UK. All other methods of entry to the UK are illegal. It really isn’t that difficult to grasp. Most people can work out that trying to sneak through a tunnel probably comes under the definition of illegal.

    One assumes members of this board have already submitted their opinions on the BBC Trusty consultation.

    My comments sent this morning are below:

    https://consultations.external.bbc.co.uk/bbc/tomorrows-bbc

    “The BBC – its programmes and services
    1. Thinking about the range of services and programmes paid for by the licence fee, in your opinion, do you think that:

    e. The BBC provides far too much

    2. Please briefly tell us why you have said this

    Licence Fee is good value compared to commercial peers, like Virgin, Sky if one wishes such output, quantity and quality produced, however the BBC Licence Tax is not something I want and is a regressive tax.

    I say this with a belief that all taxes should only be for universal actual requirements, rather than leisure extras or luxuries which cannot easily be found on free-view, online or commercial media markets, for those that want such services, thus relieving tax payers who cannot afford, or do not wish, such BBC services.

    This regressive tax results in the largest number of non-compliant individuals being dragged through our courts, much more than any other crime , (nearly 200,00 per annun). This certainly cannot be right particularly when the tax is so inefficiently used (see below).

    I do believe there is a place for our Public Broadcaster, producing factual news and information for our citizens and informing the world about us and our land and culture.

    This provision should be in accord with the Licence remit, i.e. without fear or favour and totally politically unbiased, (which I find it is not balanced). The BBC has a noticeable centre left ethos bias with so much of its news and current affairs output.
    This bias does not match the majority of the Nations inhabitants who have have democratically voted in Governments 70% of the time which are right of centre, for over 100 years now.

    Therefore the BBC are not representing the politcal balance of the Nation: Proof of this unbalance can be found with the online sites dedicated to highlighting this bias, (I can only find sites dedicated to ‘left’ bias, listing many thousands of individual actual examples, which provide tons of evidence):

    MIDWEEK OPEN THREAD

    http://biasedbbc.proboards.com/

    http://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.co.uk/

    http://bbcinstitutionalbias.blogspot.co.uk/

    http://order-order.com/ – (almost ever page of this top of the UK political blogs has comments referring to the BBC ‘left’ bias, with literally many thousands of comments listing such).

    I personally come up against this whenever I watch BBC News or current affairs. Only this morning I was watching sky and saw a headline “Faith School Bans Pupils From Meeting ‘Outsiders’.

    http://news.sky.com/story/1524949/faith-school-bans-pupils-from-meeting-outsiders

    Wow, I thought this must be big news about our wonderful tolerant, charitable, kind, inclusive British way of life being undermined. I wondered what our National Broadcaster who one would have thought would defend our British way of life was saying about such an important Public Service newsworthy item. I cannot find even a mention on the BBC, (that is not meeting the BBC remit):
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education

    A vastly reduced BBC output would of course result in very little requirement for tax funding thus relieving regressive taxes.

    The world has changed since the last Licence Review.

    Nowadays we have a substantial choice of entertainment, information, educational, leisure and sport programmes which can be found on a plethora of commercial or free-view media.

    There is no need any longer for our taxes to provide this enormous extra BBC Leisure output that can easily stifle the commercial markets through the BBC historical dominance. For example there are 8,000 BBC reporters, more than the combined total of ‘Fleet Street’ reporters.

    Additionally the BBC have wasted so much of the licence fee with failed IT programmes, Lonely Planet purchase:

    I also do not agree with the scandalous ginormous BBC management 6 figure salaries and pay-offs, nor do I agree that a tax funded organisation should run schemes for high paid staff/stars/presenters whose main income is the BBC but go self employed to avoid paying tax.

    There are numerous other issues I have with the BBC that make me wish for the BBC to no longer be funded by my taxes:

    I believe our National broadcaster should represent our minorities, but not at the expense of the majority of the nation, its culture and heritage. I find it absolutely incomprehensible, for example, why the BBC appoints a Muslim Head of Religion:

    when we have two millennium Christian heritage and culture.

    I also find the BBC has been a breeding ground for the Savlle and other paedophile scandals with their employers and that the BBC receives massive amounts of money from the EU and does not fairly report affairs concerning our membership. Immigration issues are not covered fully or honestly.

    BBC lunchtime news, and excited teenager and sometime BBC correspondent Alistair Leithhead is drooling over Obama again.
    “A bit of Swahili to endear him to his audience, as if that was even necessary” and “after recent terror attacks, Kenya’s image needs a boost, and it doesn’t get better than this”.
    He then goes on to faithfully report the Obama nonsense about how brilliantly Africa is doing, studiously ignoring the little local difficulty around the Med, with all those (non) Africans queuing to leave that fantastic continent.
    I never thought anyone would outdo Fatty Mardell, but Leithhead takes the gold in Obama sycophancy.

      Don’t worry. The BBC have ‘drug cheat’ rumours smeared all over Froome, along with the usual ‘Why doesn’t Britain like Froome?’ angles. The magnificent human achievement of Chris Froome over the past three weeks (I follow the Tour) is hard to over-state. The BBC’s understanding of the sport is questionable, and the contempt for Froome as a human being and a honorable man, is tangible. Bradley Wiggins (rightly) was applauded and congratulated for his epic achievements. Then he was knighted. The same should be applause and congratulations should be afforded to Sir Chris Froome (now two time Tour de France winner) – but the BBC don’t like him, so I guess the idea is that we mustn’t either.

      Forgive me, but for the BBC’s coverage of Chris Froome’s magnificent athletic prowess, grit, bravery, stamina and heart –

      Fuck the BBC!

        Didn’t the BBC go to great lengths recently to state that just because a certain athlete had missed a drugs test and his coach had been accused of doping there was no suggestion of any wrongdoing on the part of that certain athlete.

    BBC 24 News. 12.30pm today.

    The usual Gavin Esler political discussion slot.

    He discussed matters of the day with an arab woman and two men in tie-less suits. (The sign of edgy rebels). He of course had a tie-less suit. A French woman of left-leanings attended.

    The final discussion was on American gun laws. All deplored with rolling eyes the gun laws and blamed the National Rifle Association for it’s corrupt influence. No counter-view given of course. BBC safe ground.

    The arab woman was concerned that white gunmen who shoot members of the public are called insane but that never applies to arab gunmen. Could it be because the arab gunmen are terrorists?

    She of course was not challenged.

    Of interest re Esler’s left politics:-

    “In 2007 a BBC publication investigating into impartiality in the organisation criticised an unnamed BBC news presenter for writing an article in the Daily Mirror newspaper entitled “Why the World Needs Hillary”, stating they had been “unwise” for doing so. The article appeared to endorse Hillary Clinton to be the next US President and it soon emerged that the newsreader in question was Esler. The BBC report noted that the article “could make it hard for that presenter to conduct American political interviews”

    I just checked out the BBC News Homepage. 16.30Hrs 25/7/15.

    The news that men of a certain religion have been convicted of particular crimes including the rape of children,

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-33662503

    this time in Aylesbury, has slipped down the page rankings, whilst the main headline news is that a foreign non-european president is visiting a non-european country. ? . Is this ‘news’ for us brits?

    I am also surprised that the news viewing public are not reading the case of these men, who despite warnings from 2008, had continued to perpetrate their despicable crimes, apparently with the full knowledge of local state institutions. Well,the BBC’s News Homepage’s ‘most read’ list doesn’t include this news item in the top ten most read.

    Then again, ‘Man threw MacDonalds food at girl.’ ranking No 3 on the most read list, clearly is of great import.

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-33615397

    Does the BBC not wish to inform the public about the mass sexual abuse of children? Has the article about more depraved criminality of muslim men in England and Wales not been read, or are the BBC ‘fiddling’ with hit statistics to reduce the dissemination of the news that yet again, Muslim men have been found to be organising over long periods of time, the mass rape/ gang rape of young English children whilst employees of our state institutions looked the other way and took their salaries?

    Yasser Arafat did let us know that the Muslims main weapon is the womb. Evidently, (that is, on the basis of accruing evidence from cases in the English courts) the wombs of prepubescent English girls is the latest slant on this weapon and our public servants are too happy to facilitate and assist.

    The institutions are broken, failing, devoid of a ‘can-do’ attitude, mired in apathy, overstaffed and weighed down by a morass of human incompetence and treachery.

    Whilst we may be experiencing record low temperatures for June and July, the temperature of the blood of Englishmen is rising further. There is a reckoning coming. I hope its a civil one. I fear it may not be.

    Yet another anti British drama on BBC Radio 4

    Writing the Century – Letters from a Young Indian Revolutionary
    15 Minute Drama

    Set in 1930’s Calcutta ‘Letters from a Young Indian Revolutionary’ is the true story of Tanika Gupta’s great uncle Dinesh Gupta and his resistance to British Colonial rule based on the letters he wrote while imprisoned in Alipore Jail and his brother Pritish Gupta’s journals.

    From the excerpt broadcast it was the typical how horrid the British were / are.

      The BBC use of drama in the form of documentary style dramas that appear to be the truth to incite hatred- in this case -anti white racism – is quite frightening. This is difficult to complain about . The BBC do not accept the idea that they are promoting incitement to hatred but it needs to be pointed out to them that they should have nothing to do with this. I gave them evidence that the day after a particularly nasty programme against Jews in Israel someone I know who was working as a summer play leader was punched and kicked by the children after she mentioned she was a Jew.

    Following submitted today to BBC Trust consultation.

    https://consultations.external.bbc.co.uk/bbc/tomorrows-bbc

    “The BBC – its programmes and services
    1. Thinking about the range of services and programmes paid for by the licence fee, in your opinion, do you think that:

    e. The BBC provides far too much

    2. Please briefly tell us why you have said this

    Licence Fee is good value compared to commercial peers, like Virgin, Sky if one wishes such output, quantity and quality produced, however the BBC Licence Tax is not something I want and is a regressive tax.

    I say this with a belief that all taxes should only be for universal actual requirements, rather than leisure extras or luxuries which cannot easily be found on free-view, online or commercial media markets, for those that want such services, thus relieving tax payers who cannot afford, or do not wish, such BBC services.

    This regressive tax results in the largest number of non-compliant individuals being dragged through our courts, much more than any other crime , (nearly 200,00 per annun). This certainly cannot be right particularly when the tax is so inefficiently used (see below).

    I do believe there is a place for our Public Broadcaster, producing factual news and information for our citizens and informing the world about us and our land and culture.

    This provision should be in accord with the Licence remit, i.e. without fear or favour and totally politically unbiased, (which I find it is not balanced). The BBC has a noticeable centre left ethos bias with so much of its news and current affairs output.
    This bias does not match the majority of the Nations inhabitants who have have democratically voted in Governments 70% of the time which are right of centre, for over 100 years now.

    Therefore the BBC are not representing the politcal balance of the Nation: Proof of this unbalance can be found with the online sites dedicated to highlighting this bias, (I can only find sites dedicated to ‘left’ bias, listing many thousands of individual actual examples, which provide tons of evidence):

    biasedbbc.
    biasedbbc.proboards
    isthebbcbiased.blogspot
    bbcinstitutionalbias.blogspot

    Guido Fawkes (almost ever page of this top of the UK political blogs has comments referring to the BBC ‘left’ bias, with literally many thousands of comments listing such).

    I personally come up against this whenever I watch BBC News or current affairs. Only this morning I was watching sky and saw a headline “Faith School Bans Pupils From Meeting ‘Outsiders’.

    Wow, I thought this must be big news about our wonderful tolerant, charitable, kind, inclusive British way of life being undermined. I wondered what our National Broadcaster who one would have thought would defend our British way of life was saying about such an important Public Service newsworthy item. I cannot find even a mention on the BBC, (that is not meeting the BBC remit):
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education

    A vastly reduced BBC output would of course result in very little requirement for tax funding thus relieving regressive taxes.

    The world has changed since the last Licence Review.

    Nowadays we have a substantial choice of entertainment, information, educational, leisure and sport programmes which can be found on a plethora of commercial or free-view media.

    There is no need any longer for our taxes to provide this enormous extra BBC Leisure output that can easily stifle the commercial markets through the BBC historical dominance. For example there are 8,000 BBC reporters, more than the combined total of ‘Fleet Street’ reporters.

    Additionally the BBC have wasted so much of the licence fee with failed IT programmes, Lonely Planet purchase:
    and many other items like the move to Salford.
    I also do not agree with the scandalous ginormous BBC management 6 figure salaries and pay-offs, nor do I agree that a tax funded organisation should run schemes for high paid staff/stars/presenters whose main income is the BBC but go self employed to avoid paying tax.

    There are numerous other issues I have with the BBC that make me wish for the BBC to no longer be funded by my taxes:

    I believe our National broadcaster should represent our minorities, but not at the expense of the majority of the nation, its culture and heritage. I find it absolutely incomprehensible, for example, why the BBC appoints a M.u.s.lim Head of Religion:
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/8047537.stm
    when we have two millennium Christian heritage and culture.

    I also find the BBC has been a breeding ground for the Savlle and other p***do scandals with their employers and that the BBC receives massive amounts of money from the EU and does not fairly report affairs concerning our membership. Immigration issues are not covered fully or honestly.

    As a former teacher and lecturer I find it abhorrent how these Islamic faith schools are enforcing religious separation in British communities on a alarming scale and with seeming impunity; yet the utterly useless Ofsted and its PC minions turn a blind eye! I find it unacceptable that any faith school should enforce such intolerant methods.

    Doesn’t this type of segregationist and extremist ‘education’ fly in the face of the Left’s call for a tolerant, multi-faith and multicultural society based on collective principles of integration? It seems that following the credos of tolerance and diversity only applies to white, English Christians!

      Think you could be right there, taffman. The US also felt like that and were ahead of the EU in that respect. IIRC, they insisted on the UK cutting its favourable Commonwealth trade links after WW2. Germany lost its colonies in the war, Belgium became increasingly disgraced by their activities and the French were facing resistance from their north African colonies. Not hard to imagine the jealousy.

Faced with diminishing listening figures, no doubt the result of hours of sympathetic broadcasting aimed solely at the transsexual Marxist illegal immigrant community this morning they’ve gone over to pre-recorded programming.

    At ten we had a heart-warning repeat of the everyday tale of an Afghan illegal and his struggles to be given free everything by the British taxpayer, while the nasty British taxpayer was nasty to him at every turn. The presenter, an American, struggled to make himself heard against the swirling strings of the Our Tune music.

    The lad ran away from home as “his way of fighting the Taliban.” Now, years later, he found himself helping British soldiers prepare to deploy to Afghanistan and fight the fight he and his fellow Afghans were unwilling to take up.

    At eleven the home of live news and sport is running a documentary about W.G. Grace. First with the news indeed.

    It costs £80 million quid a year to run this network. Close it. Labour and the SNP will just have to buy airtime like the other political parties.
