Child’s play

Smiles: The migrants arrived in London yesterday. They followed 14 who arrived on Monday

 

 

The BBC continues to be more an advocate for immigration than a reporter of fact as well as hiding uncomfortable truths.

It’s reporting of the conviction of 8 Asian men managed to miss out the vital revelation that they were violent racists [Funny how the BBC doesn’t want to report serious hate crimes by ethnic minorities…and yet crucifies Louis Smith for a prank]…..as the Mail reveals…

‘All white girls are good for is sex. They’re just sl*gs’: Eight members of ‘openly racist’ violent Asian sex gang raped and ‘sexually degraded’ three teena  ge girls in Rotherham 

Nothing new there of course…we’ve always known that the Muslim abusers were choosing white, non-Muslim girls to abuse because they saw them as white trash.  In a Trojan Horse school [denied by the BBC] they were teaching the pupils that white women were just prostitutes…and recently one Muslim faith school taught that gays should be killed and men should beat their wives….didn’t hear that from the ‘exciting talent’ that is Nihal yesterday as he discussed faith schools on 5Live.

The BBC has long been campaigning for children in the Calais Jungle to be brought to the UK…going sofar as to try to influence opinion by teaming up with a ‘celebrity’ in order to make an emotive, and dishonest, plea for migrants to come to the UK.

Questions are being raised about the obvious fact that many of these ‘children’ are not children at all…the government itself admits that 2/3rds are adults.

The BBC begs to differ and has decided not to publish the pictures of the men in question nor to admit that it is the government itself which has said they so many of these ‘children’ are adults.  The BBC rather than make a measured and reasoned investigation of the issues has gone on the attack and made a ‘sensationalist’ headline about dentists up in arms about a suggestion made by David Davies that migrants should have their teeth checked so as to judge their age.  The BBC of course packs the story with disclaimers and angry voices denying these are adults….when the evidence points to the fact most are as the Mail points out…as does Guido….

child-refugees

 

 

 

You just can’t trust the BBC on so many issues…..why should we pay for its lies?  It’s not the gold standard for journalism, it’s a political party pumping out propaganda…..perhaps we should have a referendum on whether to continue paying for this partisan drivel we get from them.

Robin Aitken suggests the BBC’s diversity drive is nothing of the sort based as it is on skin colour rather than diversity of opinion or political persuasion…

In BBC terms, “diversity” seems to be exclusively about ethnic origin. You do not get to hear articulated a socially conservative viewpoint by many (any?) BBC presenters. Black, white, male or female, British, Irish, African or Asian, all seem signed up to the same liberal dogmas about life, the universe and everything. So feminism is never challenged; atheism is celebrated; “human rights” trump all (unless it’s the right of the unborn) and so on and so forth.  What gets my goat is that the Corporation does precious little to ensure the whole spectrum of political opinion and worldview is represented.

The BBC corrals permitted opinions within a very tight boundary fence. Diversity is indeed what the Corporation should be seeking – but concentrating on skin colour is patronising tokenism. We need diverse thinking, not diversity for appearance’s sake.

      Chilling, because this is where we are now. Progressives don’t care. They know they are lying – so they just embrace the Big Lie and run with it. With 98% of our msm now engulfed by progressives they control the medium and therefore they control the message – be it government, media or culture. That last one is important, too, since both government and media are ‘downstream from culture’, although I’d argue that education is just as implicit in the dogmatic indoctrination process as any virtue-signalling Hollywood film or BBC drama or documentary series.

      So, now we know: 2+2=5. We know it’s not true, and so do they, but what choice do we have?

        Gramsci’s theory of cultural hegemony has now become reality. The progressives have achieved this by their ‘long march through the institutions’, particularly through the education system, all exactly as planned. As a result, right-leaning governments are becoming less and less, as the populace becomes more and more indoctrinated with leftist thinking.

    After blatantly ignoring the issue, this morning the BBC News website has been forced to address the migrant child farce, as it is front page news for several papers. However, true to form, the BBC have decided to push the victim angle by concentrating on the British Dental Association’s condemnation. The BBC has also made the decision to blur out the faces of these new arrivals in all reports because of “editorial reasons”. I’m guessing there won’t be a Have Your Say on the issue either.

    BBC bumchum The Guardian reported on the arrivals on Monday but see how they chose a close-up image of one particular adult who may appear borderline to some, instead of one of the many obviously in their twenties and thirties. No comments allowed on that particular article either, of course.

    The second topic on The Jeremy Vine Show on BBC Radio 2 yesterday was an obvious UKIP bashing exercise as Steven Woolfe quitting the party prompted the question “After Brexit, is there really any point to UKIP?” However, and much to my delight, the top comments on the accompanying Facebook page showed more and more people are becoming aware of BBC bias, with many even asking why the BBC were not reporting on the migrant children.

    Another clear indication of growing mistrust are the top comments on the Have Your Say for this report yesterday about the 1% rise in UK inflation, calling out the scaremongering bias and the fact that inflation was higher while we were in the EU.

    And one comment in particular (No.74 by Rational48) stood out for me:

    Funny how the HYS disappeared on political and economic issues for a while and then reappears with a much higher % of Remaniac likes in the early stages…..

    Seemed to get back to its previous pro Brexit ratios as time passed yesterday, but then the relevant articles dropped back through the pages.

    Sadly I do not trust BBC editorial impartiality at all….

    The BBC must hate not being able to manipulate the comments on Facebook as easily. In fact, as I write this, the report on the migrant children is nowhere to be seen on the BBC News Facebook page. Lashings of veiled denunciation towards Donald Trump though.

      Excellent comment! I have just read the BBC’s online website report on this issue. It is the most disingenuous, biased load of tripe I have read for some years – and bearing in mind that this is the BBC I’m talking about, that is certainly saying something!

      It, too, majors on the codswallop from the BDA (I wonder how many BDA members the SJW who made that decision at the BDA actually consulted?) and writhes and twists like a snake in a forked stick to avoid the issue, which is just how old are these so-called ‘children’?

      The pictures in the newspapers do not lie. The BBC’s report does.

          Afghanistan is now officially Christian frei. There were no Jews in Afghanistan anyway.

          So how can a devout Muslim gain entry to paradise, if there are no Infidels to slay.

          Clearly its Britain duty to give Muslims from Afghanistan, the opportunity to gain entry to the Islamic paradise.

          Good news though (or not, depending on your POV) for the remaining Sikhs and Hindus in Afghanistan. But there are only a very limited number of Hindus and Sikhs still in Afghanistan, so the route to the Islamic paradise has to be from the UK.

        Great comment.

        I notice that the much vaunted “Comments are free” of the Guardian, have been enabled.

        The Daily Mail is far better

        “Migrant ‘children’ arriving in Britain from Calais to critics claiming they look ‘old enough to be adults’ may appear older ‘because war has toughened them up’, the Home Office claims.”

        Brexit or not, immigration of a religion that is doctrinally compelled to destroy Jews and Christianity, is allowed in to the country. What fools are leaders are. As for the AB of Canterbury, whose job is to defend the Protestant faith, is the one of the worst of the fools. Even after the beheading of a French priest in his own church, he does not get it. What can you do with such people. In saner times, it would be difficult to employ them. Now they are in positions of power.

        It seems it is true that “those whom the gods wish to destroy they first make mad”.

        Our politicians have long since crossed the boundaries of sanity.

        Commentators though are not fooled.

      A petition to hold a referendum on the BBC, should attract quite a lot of support.

    It’s interesting to compare the amount of coverage given to the Ched Evans matter with the Rotherham rapists. Not just the BBC but generally the amounts are completely disproportionate.

       75 likes

    • NCBBC says:

      The Rotherham rapists are just a tip of the iceberg. The real figure uis likely to be upward of 30,000. Assuming just ten Pakistani men in a gang to one girl, some 300,000 Pakistani Muslims were involved in the brutal serial gang rapes of young girls.

      This is not a crime but a war crime. Not just by Muslims, who are in fact invaders and colonisers, but by those who knew, and yet allowed it to happen.

      And yet, such is nature of the treason, that there is no precedent for punishment of such a crime, as there is no parallel in history, anywhere or anytime.

      No wonder several judges appointed on extremely high salaries, have quit. Obviously they felt they couldn’t meet the terms of the contract.

    • NCBBC says:

      The systematic brutal gang rapes of young non-Muslim girls by Pakistani Muslims had been going on for decades. In all cases the police and political authorities knowingly ignored the cries of the victims. The news only broke when the EDL started to protest about the gang rapes. The authorities and media response was to besmirch the EDL as right wing racist Nazis, arrest Tommy Robinnson, and “kettle” EDL demonstrations.

      And as the news was now out, they admitted that they had kept quiet about the gang rapes because they didn’t want to be perceived as “racists”. This doesn’t wash on any ground.

      1. What sort of people are these media and authority types. who willingly and knowingly, ignored the cries and tears of young girls over decades.

      2. And the claim that they didn’t want to be perceived as “racist” is a cowardly reason to give, that is, trying to hide their cowardice, and disgusting politically expedient behaviour, behind what they believe will be perceived as the good cause of “non-racism”.

      The punishment for such a war crime, which amounts to an act war by Pakistani Muslims against the UK, should be banishment of the entire community.

      As for the political elite who allowed it to happen, I cant think of any punishment that suits such monstrous treason.

      This is a huge war crime, committed by Pakistani Muslims in complicity with the authorities. And that is why it is being brushed under the carpet.

      So the hounding of Tommy Robinson continues, while rapists, and their enablers, get away.

    Listening to Iain Dale on LBC on the drive home (imposed on me due to the idiots in charge of the RMT) – I have been listening to his arguments over the last two weeks on why we should allow all the children in Calais to come to the UK.

    Worryingly any attempt by listeners to explain their concerns with his views have been met with contempt, anger and spin. What is now noticeable is his lack of interest in these people now that so many of them are not the 5 year old boys / girls he was banging on about.

    Iain Dale is normally a reasonably fair presenter, however, on Refugees, Donald Trump and the EU he is as bad as the worst BBC presenters. Only on the EU do I agree with him (he voted out). I can only guess that Iain Dale is a regular contributor to the BBC and needs to toe the company line, otherwise his views on the Refugees and Donald Trump are borderline ridiculous.

    The British Dental
    Association is clearly part of the elite that desperately wanted a Remain vote . It’s backed up the BBCs desperate attempts to dismiss concerns about tne Calsis ‘ children’ being nothing of the sort . By lunchtime the BDA is telling us in interviews that the dental assessment involves radiation and cannot be carried out on the ‘children’.
    Has anyone ever had a tooth x rayed ? Was that high risk or morally unacceptable ?
    How about just looking for well developed wisdom teeth as a guide ?

    The arguments I’ve just heard on Jeremy Vine, and elsewhere, are irrelevant.

    “These are adult men, just look at them”. Says one. “But they’ve had such a hard time. Poor things. You’d look older than your years if you’d been what they’ve been through”. Says another.

    Just irrelevant.

    We were told that there are 608 unaccompanied children in the Calais jungle. We have agreed to take about 140. Given the odds, there shouldn’t be ANY children accepted that look remotely adolescent, never mind adult.

    It is clear that we are being taken for fools, and it is disappointing to note that I am funding an organisation that is trying to fool me.

        It makes a kind of sense.

        After all the propaganda about “child refugees” in the Jungle, you might have thought that at least the first batch would be actual children. Of course, the subsequent batches, which would not be reported, could be adults, but at least they could play the game and pretend they were sending children over. But no. It’s in your face. It’s like an act of aggression: “here are your children, who are obviously fully grown men, what are you going to do about it?”.

        The left wing establishment lies to our face, treats us with complete contempt, and dares us to do something about it? Why? Because they can.

    Those at the BBC must have known this would be the response, but because it doesn’t fit in with their warped ideals they surely ignored the issue in the hope it would disappear quickly and quietly.

    This country is f******* finished. We’re letting adult migrants blatantly lie their foul way into our country and the BBC/Sky scumbag media/left-wing social justice warriors are whole-heartedly supporting this vile pantomime. Forget Brexit, we cannot even stop lying toe-rags from getting into our country, in fact we’re giving them a lift, knowing full well that these ‘children’ are in fact fully grown men; no wonder they all have that leering smirk on their boat races. Does anyone really think that our worm-ridden parasitical politicians will do ANYTHING to remotely bring back sovereignty to our nation? I bloody well don’t! The political establishment will do everything they can to continue unfettered immigration. My bloody grandfather fought in the war and worked all his sodding life only to die in a grubby old folks home which he paid for out of his meagre savings (which my father was hoping he’d get some of which as inheritance). And for bloody what? So our treacherous politicians can let in these leering migrants with full access to our country’s produce. You couldn’t make it up!

    I have no problem with helping homeless children/infants who are in distress but seeing these photos is an utter insult and offence to our goodwill. Some of these ‘children’ look about thirty years old for f**** sakes. We are being openly swindled by the Left!

    And the pathetic response/reporting from the BBC is hardly a surprise. This despicable organisation serves no other purpose than to propagandise for Labour and the far-Left. It is disgusting that an organisation which is kept afloat by extorting money out of the working populace does its best to undermine our national pride and traditions; they should be openly questioning why we have a bunch of lying migrants cheating their way into our country, but are more interested in the sefl-righteous multiculturalism that is eating away at our culture. I’m sure that Lilly Allen will be most pleased with the pathetic BBC’s reporting of this fiasco. Meanwhile, those who are forced to pay for the BBC shite are left without a voice!

      Wholeheartedly agree. It is the biggest middle finger up from the establishment, to persuade (!) the electorate to approve of bringing in child migrants (who clearly are intent on getting to the UK only by fair our foul means), and then to disrespect them by bringing in these men masquerading as children. There are no shortage of apologists – on Jeremy Whine – ex social worker saying that they treated anyone as children up to age 21. What an idiot.
      I would also like to know how they prove who is their relative. If they have no documentation, for age ID, then obviously don’t for relatives. And so social workers will use ‘their judgement’. Ha!

        Looblyloo, it also sends a clear signal that the UK will accept unquestioningly any migrant under the age of 25 or so, or even older if he can pass for under 25.

        It is an incentive for anyone to come to France, destroy (or simply hide for later use, eg by posting to a contact in Britain) their identity papers and claim asylum in Britain.

        I suspect some ‘open borders’ Britons will collude in this. It could be done on an industrial scale eventually – like those hotels in Brighton where adulterous liasons were staged and witnessed to obtain divorce.

      No such thing as a country which is “finished”.

      There are, however, problems which are becoming worse. This just means that the solutions, when people wake up, will be uglier.

      I suppose a nuclear power could finish us. However, our current enemies are a pathetic lot, all things considered. They couldn’t even confront Lee Rigby face to face.

      If they were capable of posing an existential threat, they’d be united, and wouldn’t have had screwed up their own countries and run.

        A.C. They don’t pose an existential threat – yet, though when the British become a minority in the U.K. the lives of our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren won’t really have much going for them.

        Demography is destiny, but the Progressive filth who want to turn our nation into a diversity riddled midden refuse to see it and think that it is acceptable to allow vast numbers of immigrant parasites to come here from the Third World.

        I would think by that stage (2050 onwards) a military coup shall be the only solution, as we wouldn’t have the numbers anymore by then to change anything electorally; the armed forces alone would have the firepower and the numbers to take the country back.

            Agreed D.S. France (IMHO) has not been a truly stable country since the Revolution, there was an attempted coup there relatively recently (in historical terms) with the failed attempt to topple De Gaulle and there is a latent radicalism to the French which we, in the main, don’t possess. The Left are very strong there though, which is an additional problem to surmount.

              Al Shubtill, yes the left are strong in France but I believe in many ways they are different to the liberal/left softies we have in the UK. Eg for many years conscription was supported by leftist elements in France because they believed it upheld the violent ideals of the Revolution. I also believe that a lot of the support for Le Pen comes from old-school national protectionists leftists, a bit like support for UKIP by disgruntled Labour voters in the UK. So I guess the soft-left (ie, those in favour of multi-culti) may be much weaker in France.

            For all practical purposes, the Fifth republic is dead. Slain by the Religion of Peace. How apt.

            France is in a state of war. All its armed forces are deployed. Not in Algeria or Mali, but France. The reserves have been called up. President Hollande has asked for volunteers. Its just that the MSM is keeping mum about it.

            This cannot go on forever. Either the military will take charge, or or it will force Hollande to do so.

            Once that happens, I see the dissolution of the EU. The doors will be closed, and the walls will go up.

            But Britain will still be “open”, as for all practical purpose, its not in the EU.

      These little Movietone or Pathe snippets now strike me as being terribly poignant. They show a London only fifty or sixty years ago, populated by ordinary, decent, white British people, who are all smartly dressed, and clearly part of a coherent society. If you filmed something like that today it would more like a scene from “Zulu”.

      The sort of calm, orderly white British society we see in these films has been utterly wiped out in London, in just a few short years. I wonder how long the rest of the country has got?

      I wish he’d had the guts to tell them all to piss off, but I suppose I can’t blame him for caving in. He’s got a life to lead, and it’s easier being a dhimmi that standing up to the PC establishment.

      A good point well made, gb123.

      I could’ve done without the hypocrite to the left of the photo, though. I hope that Marie Jana Korbelová gave the cheeky scamp a hefty clout to the back of his head after it was taken. Trying to embarrass her by suggesting that he wanted to go home, indeed!

      I saw Madeleine Albright being interviewed on American TV a few years ago. Born in Prague to Catholic converts from Judaism, she was grudgingly grateful to the UK for granting wartime asylum to her diplomat father and his family. She then whinged that they hadn’t been allowed to stay after the war (she was about eight on VE Day). For the generosity of the US, where they eventually settled, she was forever grateful.

      She curiously failed to mention, however, a few salient post-war details. That the family had been given a swanky pad in one of the posher parts of Prague on their return (they were hardly destitute); that her father had been posted to Belgrade as the Czechoslovakian ambassador (dunno for sure, of course, but I gather that’s a slightly better job than sweeping the streets); and that his family had been obliged to seek asylum for a second time in 1948 when the Communist Party took over in Yugoslavia (so nothing to do with us after all, then).

      Mind you, her right hand does look like she’s making a move to throttle him. So praps she’s not a hypocrital, anglophobe Democrat after all.

      The last Labour government advocated the same migrant dental checks that have caused so much outrage among the Twitterati today. Back in 2007 the then immigration minister Liam Byrne said that dental checks had to be considered to prevent abuse of the system:

      “If it is true that a dental x-ray is able to establish within a more precise range an individuals’ age than any other form of determination then I think we have really got to look very hard at that evidence. We cannot have adults in the children’s system. Adults in the children’s system, I believe, pose a serious threat to our obligation to protect children effectively.”

    Human rights? Bullshit. An offer (asylum) is being made. The price is proof of eligibility for refugee status. Cough up legitimate documentation demonstrating country of origin and age. If you can’t do that then, leaving aside the lack of verification for refugee vs economic migrant status based on country of origin (Pakistan? Nigeria? Fcuk right off), you have the option to submit yourself to a biological test, a dental x-ray, which carries with it a health risk so negligible that thousands of Brits subject themselves to it every day. Nobody is herding migrants into irradiation chambers. And you might want to start with the ones that are actually children and not clearly way past the borderline. Except that the stats show that (i) the Calais jungle is populated by 95% non-Syrians and (ii) primarily male adults. And not law abiding ones at that as evidenced by their inclination to use violence to achieve illegal entry to Britain.

    What will happen now is that the media will not be granted access to the images of migrants successfully breaching our borders but we will be assured that they are indeed Syrian children. We’ll be sold a story on human rights and sensitivity. Job done – Labour, luvvies and the rest of intelligentsia completely unqualified to express a valid opinion on how ordinary people should react to this backdoor invasion will ratchet up their rhetoric about us uncaring racists not doing enough.

    Things we now know:

    Nobody will ever, upon ever, criticise the French or the EU for the utter clusterf*ck that is the Calais Jungle. It is, and always will be, Britain’s fault, and any violent attacks on British citizens or their vehicles in or around Calais is never the fault of the assailant.

    Absolutely anybody from the ME, Africa etc with no money, no papers, no health or criminal checks – in fact anything – can freely travel across the whole of our continent unabated, then lie about their age and be shipped into Britain before being placed in a secondary school with 11yr old children and given any Benefits and Housing they may require.

    According to the accusations on Twitter of a certain high profile BBC football presenter, anybody that checks somebody’s age is now a racist (doormen, bus drivers, bar staff, newsagents…). As is, according to the increasingly dangerous Left, anybody who ever bats an eyelid about the future immigration policy of their sovereign nation.

    The vast majority of our media is willfully involved in a strong, cohesive pro-EU, pro-Islam, pro-open borders, anti-white narrative set to undermine anything or anybody that disagrees with it. You’re either with them or against them, simple as that, and their version of societal change cannot and will not be stopped.

    In the very recent past if I’d have read these points anywhere I’d have dismissed them as the rantings of a conspiracy theorist. However, when you see it with your own eyes you have two options – believe it or stick your fingers in your ears. And by God are we seeing it.

    “Unaccompanied children as young as eight, as well as orphans and vulnerable young girls, have been left stranded in the Jungle because the Home Office and the French authorities have yet to clear their applications for entry to the UK.”

    “A Home Office spokesman said: “We work closely with the French authorities and their partner agencies to ensure all those who come to the UK from the camps in Calais are eligible.”

    ..as I pointed out earlier the Ofcom Content board which is 80% BBC connected is also 80% London connected (as is typical BBC management and talent)
    …in a country where 70% of the population are not from the London region.
    It doesn’t do a great job on :
    DIVERSITY of Social Class either they’ve got 3 Toff Radio stations for a start R3,R4,4x

    According to one charity worker on LBC earlier 40% of “children” in Calais have an STD! He implied this was due to their being raped. Since they are all “boys” presumably this would be homosexual rape!

    Rather surprisingly the News at Ten yesterday raised the issue of the ‘big for their age’ children. Some of our favourite 35 year old teenagers were shown…and they even had David Davies MP speaking out against it.

    However, balance was restored by an item with Katya Adler interviewing a Berliner who wasn’t happy about the arrival of over a million migrants. Rather than simply ask why, Mrs Adler ‘challenged him’ about it. Says it all really.

      Sounds like James O’Brian, he is always boasting of ‘challenging’ callers, very often by the unfair tactic of asking for statistics or a precise source, which callers are unlikely to have to hand when they ring in, and unlike him they do not have resarcher minions on hand to dig out back up material.

      Shame hes so one sided and never fails to leave those who agree with his bigoted views unchallenged.

      I have finally worked out the age question.
      They are really Martians and they are correct about their age.
      Martian year is approx. 687 Earth days. Earth years approx.365 Earth days. Child refugee 14 Martian years = around 26-27 Earth Years. Sorted.

    Here`s an Islamic take on the question of judging age….

    https://islamqa.info/en/197392

    No need for “traumatic” dental tests it seems.

    And, from the same source,

    “If a female menstruates, even if she is ten years old, then she has reached puberty.”

    Perhaps this explains the gender imbalance among the “child refugees” that has been much commented on.

      The gender imbalance is easily explained by the fact that the “children” are just like the other economic migrants, forerunners sent by their families chosen for their strength and fitness to cope with the journey and their ability to speak English , thus gain an anchorage in Britain to pull thee rest of the family over. I suspect most “missing” parents will be found. once the liars get permanent leave to remain.

        On Mr Redwood’s blog somebody has made the good point that this ‘children’ scandal sends a clear message to developing countries to send minors to Calais.

        In poor non-western countries families are large and children are treated as an economic resource, just as they once were in the west. A cash in hand black market wage for a young man in the UK, sent back to a third world country, can support quite a large family. If he manages to get a legitimate job with benefits, an entire village could be supported, plus a bridgehead can be established for further migration.

        It is therefore well worth it to send out a young man to Europe in the hope that he can get in to the UK on the ‘child’ ticket.

        The SJWs inviting migration however would probably call this ‘cynical’ but having lived in India for a while I just see it as enlightened self-interest by people doing their best to get by in a harsh world.

          Absolutely. I don’t blame canny third worlders for acting immorally in their own and their family’s interests. I do blame our elite for acting against ours though, particularly when they conceal their agenda under a cloak of altruism.
