        What he doesn’t mention is that the BBC charter was ‘negotiated’ by idler Cameron including the ethnic representation.
        The Britain needs to become more Islamic fool who has zero comprehension of British peoples lives betrayed us all to the left by agreeing to a new Royal Charter in exchange for BBC support during the referendum which the BBC would have done anyway if it thought it could get away with it !

        Watched the first prog of the new ‘Autumnwatch’ series last night and I see they have started sneaking a black female presenter in,doing an outside report on Red Squirrels.
        I may be wrong but I can’t remember seeing her before on the ‘watch’ series, just wait and see them edge her in, before long she will be a main presenter.
        Some would say my comments are racist, but I feel it is the BBC who are being really racist by moving the white man (Martin Hughes-Games) out because of his skin colour.

      Thank you for the instructions on how to follow up a complaint to the BBC. It is very important that further complaints are made if the answer is not satisfactory . It is very costly for the BBC to deal with further complaints , in time, resources and employing staff. There is therefore a real possibility that the BBC will change if enough people persevere and follow through to the top level of the BBC Complaints procedure.

        It may be that someone on this site has already posted this – if so my apologies. It may even be from a site of a Biased BBC poster. However this link came up on the Arsse website and provides an interesting catalogue of letters from the BBC to someone who hasn’t had a licence because they got rid of their television in 2006. This person has been plagued with intimidating letters since 2006 and each one is posted on the site. They’re like a dog with a bone if they don’t get your money to feed their huge bank accounts.It’s a form of harassment.

      Very peed off about this; if true it’s the last straw for me. Packham and Hughes-Games are experts in their field and show such knowledge and enthusiasm, whether you like them or not they are highly qualified and do a great job. They already have a couple of minority groups represented in the presentation of reports within the program.

    According to the towering intellect of David Aaronovitch, on Marr yesterday, all the ‘refugees’ want to go to Germany or Sweden anyway, so their sense of direction is obviously being adversely affected. Surely Fergal, Lyse or Orla could find someone to blame for that?

      I would certainly support the UK government hiring a ferry to take them to Gothenburg or Bremen provided there was no possibility of return. By the way all of those Jungle inhabitants that I have seen on the tele today look much older than children. The BBC have launched an urgent appeal for blankets so that these bearded , muscular children can be hidden from press cameras.

    I saw the Marr / Aaronovitch interview yesterday. It’s so easy for the very wealthy to claim the high moral ground when they live in a lovely (and I’m guessing homogeneous) liberal ivory towers.
    People like David, Lily and Benedict live as far away from the impact of unwarranted third world immigration as it’s possible to be in our overcrowded little island. They can judge and pass comment from a very safe distance.
    The sage informed us that countries like Sweden and Germany had really stepped up to the plate in offering succour to the world’s homeless and dispossessed. Of course he didn’t mention that Sweden, the homeland of beautiful blondes and liberal values, was now the rape capital of Europe. And surely to God he’s not so befuddled by Guardian and BBC propaganda that he hasn’t seen what’s been occurring in Germany.
    David mentioned that he had daughters. I’m not sure what ages they are…perhaps some of these “youngsters” that we’ve recently taken from the jungle might find themselves at their school.
    Somehow I doubt it…

      Aaronovitch has a strange political background and his current position is a confusing mish mash. His parents were old fashioned pro-Russian communists. He eventually rejected that but ended up as a left-liberal/progressive/Blairite. Blair’s gone, labour is sub-Marxist and unelectable so Aaronivitch has nowhere to go. He sticks to his Blair principles of leaning towards pro-immigration (remember the New Labour plot to rub the Right’s noses in diversity) so on Marr he made the usual silly claims that living in war zones makes children look old etc. However, he also realises that a pro-immigration stance won’t get labour elected. So, as I say, he’s got inconsistent views.
      Marr is broadly similar in outlook to Aaronovich, which I presume is why people like Aaronovitch and the irritating Helena Kennedy get invited on so often. Nominally they are there to review the papers but in fact Marr gives them disproportionate air time to spout their political views.
      I think the main difference between Marr and Aaronovich is that Marr was a rabid Maoist in his youth while Aaronovich inherited Stalinist views. I’m always suspicious of people who can adopt such craziness as young adults. By then they should have more common sense. I think that any subsequent political positions they adopt such as New Labour should be treated with equal suspicion in terms of their judgment.

        Perfectly understandable to be suspicious of the young adopting strange and rabid political views, EE, it’s when they continue to embrace them, as Corbyn, Macdonald, Toynbee, McLusky and others in positions of influence illustrate, that one really has to be concerned for their mental maturity. Owen Jones, of course, has yet to establish his true credentials but perhaps, like all the others, he simply enjoyed breaking his toys as a child?

Call me cynical, BUT, aid workers have largely been instrumental, in conjunction with HO officials, in ‘choosing’ which ‘children’ have won the lottery of a coach ride to the UK. Just saying.

    Not BBC but Sky News , Bolton suggests that unless Scotland, Wales and NI are given as equal say to England on Brexit then it will be Un Democratic! The English already are suffering a severe democratic deficit because we have no English parliament , if Bolton had his way then an English vote would be worth roughly , one tenth of a Scottish vote, one fifteenth of a Welsh vote and one twentieth of a NI vote. The English are being oppressed by the tyranny of the minorities that we share this island with. Add to that the priveliges that Asians and other non whites get and you can see why the English are slowly but surely losing their tolerant attitude. Ourleaders are stoking our slow burning anger, they should take heed of our growing unhappiness.

          I actually think the answer is not quite the one you may have in mind:
          First there simply aren’t any actual ‘unaccompanied minors’in Calais. Minors yes, but all accompanied by an adult.
          Secondly the alleged “relatives” in Britain are actually anyone from the village back home who the asylum seeker happens to know – probably a fifth cousin, since theyre all related , but distant enough that the alleged “uncle” doesn’t really give two hoots about them!

    My game of modified Russian roulette with BBC R4 is going well today (as it did over the weekend). What I do is occasionally switch on and see what’s on offer. So far, a quick foray this morning produced someone waffling about the ‘black experience’ of this that or the other (straight off again). I tried again about 15 minutes ago and heard two Scottish mental patients discussing Brexit and how Scotland was going to become heaven because all the banks are going to move there when it declares independence and remains in the EU.

    What this is proving is just how much far Left propaganda R4 broadcasts during a day. Almost every time I switch it on, someone is trying to sell me socialism. Try it for yourself if you can stand it.

    At least Mark Stone on Sky, reporting from the camp, did ADMIT that there are very very few ‘children’ of primary school age; and that the ‘children’ were teenagers. Perhaps calling them young adults would put a different spin on it. Most of the faces in the camp are from Africa anyway, and are all queuing up with their wheely suitcases and scanning their phones like they’re at the bloody airport !!! – hardly sodding vulnerable.

        This is so obviously a huge sub-Saharan African migration push masquerading as a Syrian refugee problem. Any proper reporting as opposed to propaganda would be wanting to discover the origin and ages of these “refugees”. It’s all so obviously a massive con, and the “refugee children” tag to hide mature men is such a blatant slap in the face of the public’s common sense as to rank as an insult.

      Given these ‘unprecedented for millions of years’ levels of CO2, you would think a journalist might be curious enough to ask a climate scientist why temperatures haven’t gone up for the last 20 years. However, this is the BBC so tricky questions that might contradict the party line must not be asked. Headmaster Harrabin would not be happy.

        More importantly, the BBC never asks the question: are the rises in CO2 a catastrophe? If so, how? CO2 is a trace atmospheric gas essential for life on Earth. How is a rise in CO2 harmful to the planet? Does the BBC have any evidence to show how it might be harmful? Does the BBC ever ask if a rise in CO2 might be at all beneficial – for instance, leading to a ‘greening’ of the planet in a more CO2-rich atmosphere?

        So many questions. The BBC asks none of them.

          Indeed, and now, with the heading of Matt McGrath’s article and its opening sentence, they have set a benchmark that may come back to haunt them and help destroy the CO2 = AGW Theory. If we see no significant warming over the next generation, and similarly after that, then it means the AGW Theory will have to look for a new cause while refunding loads of taxes to drivers and electricity users and so on.

          OK, so there’s some wishful thinking in that last bit of the sentence immediately above but the rest is true.

          In a way the BBC may have just done the AGW equivalent of constantly producing photographs of babies and very small children to headline articles about migrants. They have created a concrete expectation which now has to be delivered.

              Beltane, think you may not have fully grasped my point: the BBC and the CO2 will now have to deliver some significant warming, globally, on land and year round, from now on.

              You are right that the warming so far is so small as to possibly be insignificant, especially when considered over millennia, assuming it has been ‘measured correctly’. Even then it could be an outlier, an extreme. [ It may also be nothing to do with CO2 or not due solely to CO2, but only thinkers and scientists and sceptics and deniers and thinking sceptical scientist deniers, etc., etc., bother about things like that! 😉 ]

              Once something has been ‘declared’ by the BBC (just like photos of migrant children that are in reality very small children), it will have to be delivered or serious questions will be asked. Then come the consequences.

              If we who survive to 2035 and 2050 are not significantly warmer, wherever we are on the planet, whatever the time of year, by at the very least two degrees centigrade, then there will be trouble. Not least from increased numbers of old people (assuming we do not lose millions in a mini-Ice Age before then) who will be surviving because of the warming promised by the BBC or rather will be needing the heating turned up because the BBC and the World Meteorological Organisation has not delivered on its 2016 promise.

              Ignores the ‘ice cube effect’ of all those disintegrating polar ice caps but the Climate Experts have said the sea is hot, so it must be true.

        That’s a question I asked in 2007: This was the answer from the people who complained to the BBC about censorship.

        Over the first 80 years that Ice Cores are formed CO2 is absorbed by cold water, there has been 180 years of Atmospheric CO2 gas analysis by chemical methods (Beck, 2007). This means that from 1810 to 1930 we have both Ice core and direct measurements of CO2 in the Atmosphere. This shows that ice cores have CO2 levels about 40 percent lower than the original atmosphere (Jaworowski, 2007). This also shows that CO2 levels were 470ppm in 1828 and 290ppm in 1888.

        The Greatest Scientific Scandal of Our Time by Zbigniew Jaworowski, shows that Ice Core data underestimates CO2 levels of the past.

    First Calais child migrants arrive at ‘respite centre’ in Devon

    The first child migrants from Calais have arrived at a “respite centre”, a council has confirmed. Devon County Council says 23 children from the “Jungle” camp have arrived at the temporary centre near Great Torrington. The youngsters – who are all believed to be male and under the age of 18 – arrived by bus at about 03:00 BST. The migrants, originally from Afghanistan, Sudan and Syria, could stay in Devon for up to six weeks. It’s believed they will receive medical checks before they are reunited with family members or moved to other parts of the country. Conservative MP Geoffrey Cox said he hoped the community would “rally round” as up to 70 children are expected to be sent to the centre in total.
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-devon-37752313

    So it begins. Many more councils around the UK are preparing to accept these ‘vulnerable youngsters’. The BBC is breathless with joy.

    So far, no photos of these ‘children’. Perhaps they haven’t yet had time to shave off their beards.

        One question that has troubled me over the migrant ‘children’: if they are in receipt of Taxpayer help and Benefits, does a refusal to check their age become an accessory to Benefit Fraud and, hence, a Criminal Offence?

        The Winter Fuel Payment, for example, carries various highlighted warnings about Benefit Fraud and the various checks and penalties that will be applied if a fraud is thought and then found to have occurred with someone applying who is under age.

        Does not the same apply at the other end of the age range?

        Anyone here with good knowledge of DWP & Local Authority rules who can advise?

          The local authorities have a legal requirement to check the age of these so- called children. In effect, the useless Home Office has passed the buck by not doing the initial screening competently. It’s local authorities who must take decisions about foster care, placing in children’s homes, school placing, benefit entitlements etc. you simply can’t do that legally without accurately knowing someone’s age. I’d like to see people held to account at the Home Office for this appalling fiasco.

            According to a report in the Telegraph at the weekend a number of local authorities offered their social services expertise three months ago to go and verify the ages of the Calais ‘children’, as apparently they have tried and tested methods for doing so.

            They never got a reply.

            Sadly you are very wrong. Foster carers have complained for years about mature adults being placed with them as children.

            A few years back the BBC had on of these migrants teaching us how to cook Iraqi food on Radio Fours Food Programme. He was remarkably skillful considering he had left Iran over two years earlier at allegedly just fifteen! He was living with a British foster family, so not as though he’d been catering for himself for the previous two years either.

        I echo your remarks about the “jungle”. I have long expected some sanctimonious type to appear and lecture us about this word, and I find it delightful that the Beeb reporters trot it out, apparently unaware of what it suggests about the inhabitants of the… J word.

    Just watched BBC hand-wringing about migrant “children” working in the clothing industry in Turkey. After years of beeb brain-washing my first instinct is to check the legal age in Turkey. 13 years for part-time and 15 for full-time if not classed as dangerous or heavy lifting work. So presumably not illegal if they’re over 13 and part time. My son did a paper round at that age. He got up at 6 am and learned to get up and earn money. No BBC journo hand -wringing over that. Nobody they managed to film looked under 13. But then the MSM think anyone under 35 is a child, if that’s what they’re told – 6 o’clock shadow included….

    Just looking at the coverage of the Calais jungle.
    The evidence from their own coverage is staring the biased BBC in tha face and they STILL are in denial.
    First of all, even the bBBC are calling them migrants rather than asylum seekers or refugees.
    Secondly, almost every one of the featured migrants is male, between 20 and 30 years old, and very black. That is not coloured (using the helpful and normal South African usage). So not Asian or even Syrian but from black Africa, hence the number of Somalis, Eritrains, Nigerians etc.
    In other words, What we have are thousands of chancers relying on a load of gullible do-gooders and Far Left anti-West extremists and a government trapped in the headlights of Political Correctness to get a meal ticket paid for by hard pressed UK tax payers..

        There have been concerns about immigration for centuries, but the government of the day usually responded with a mixture of controlling the inward flow, and making efforts to assimilate those already here. For example in the early 18th century Parliament passed the Fifty New Churches Act which was intended to encourage Hugenot immigrants to become Anglicans. It didn’t really work, but the point is can you imagine any contemporary British government entertaining such ideas?

    Here’s a follow-on from my earlier observations about the climate change issues the BBC never wants to ask about…

    The world is getting greener. Why does no one want to know?
    As carbon dioxide levels have risen, the planet’s green vegetation has increased by 14 per cent.

    Global greening is the name given to a gradual, but large, increase in green vegetation on the planet over the past three decades. The climate change lobby is keen to ensure that if you hear about it at all, you hear that it is a minor thing, dwarfed by the dangers of global warming. Actually, it could be the other way round: greening is a bigger effect than warming.

    It is a story in which I have been both vilified and vindicated. Four years ago, I came across an online video of a lecture given by Ranga Myneni of Boston University in which he presented an ingenious analysis of data from satellites. This proved that much of the vegetated area of the planet was getting greener, and only a little bit was getting browner. In fact, overall in 30 years, the green vegetation on planet Earth had increased by a rather extraordinary 14 per cent. He said this was occurring in all vegetation types — from tropical rainforests to arctic tundra.

    Full story: http://www.spectator.co.uk/2016/10/the-world-is-getting-greener-why-does-no-one-want-to-know/

      Don’t worry, OW, the BBC have got this covered.

      On the lunchtime news Horrorbin informed us in one of his funereal-voiced pieces that pollution i.e. ‘greenhouse gases’ in the atmosphere has reached an all-time high. Yes, apparently CO2 (see what they did there?) has risen dramatically since 1950 (implication: so, therefore, must have temperatures) from a ‘normal’ 280 parts per million to 400. However, there is no such thing as a ‘normal’ level of CO2 as the graph within this piece shows:

      https://wattsupwiththat.com/2013/06/04/dr-vincent-gray-on-historical-carbon-dioxide-levels/

      It will be seen that there is no correlation whatsoever between carbon dioxide concentration and the temperature at the earth’s surface.

      During the latter part of the Carboniferous, the Permian and the first half of the Triassic period, 250-320 million years ago, carbon dioxide concentration was half what it is today but the temperature was 10ºC higher than today.

      In fact millions of years ago levels reached 2240 ppm without the earth coming to an end.

      Also, the 30 years after WW2 saw a marked cooling trend – so much so, in fact, scientists were warning us about another ice age unless we mended our evil industrial ways and then…..well, a 180-degree turn occurred, as we know.

      Anyway, it’s official: CO2 is a ‘pollutant’ because the BBC says so, in their habitual, sly, sleight-of-mouth way.

      He briefly mentioned the greening benefits of the extra CO2 but quickly trashed the idea as the ‘experts’ believe this could be negated by an increased incidence of droughts. So that’s hard evidence vs the usual ‘could’ (i.e. failed climate modelling), then.

      We then had some environmental bird telling us we had 24 hours to save the planet (or some such), peddling the usual fantasy of how man can tweak the Earth’s thermostat by lowering the amount of CO2 he puts out.

      And the BBC are peddling this nonsense as science.

      Pity poor old Reith, forever whirling in his grave.

    The desperate children of the Calais Jungle

    Another day in the “Jungle”, another tear-gassing for the children of Calais. As a convoy is diverted too close to the migrant camp, shouts go up, gangs of young men and boys charge through the underpass which forms the entrance to the camp, desperate to board the trucks. French police are quick to respond, and soon CS canisters are exploding among the migrants, forcing them back into the camp. Among them is Mohammed, 16. His lungs and eyes are full of the choking gas. He has no-one here to look after him, and he desperately wants to get to Britain.

      Sorry, but the British have embraced Fascism and taken it to its bosom!
      The problem is that children have never been taught since WWII what Fascism is, and as a result have failed to recognise it when it appeared again.

      I blame this on the Labour party who never really have been able to accept that Fascism is simply another iteration of Socialism.

      Of course the ideology of Fascism has many aspects, but one of the main ones is the creation of scapegoats to blame every one of lifes troubles on, this they have done again. Just take a look at Feminism which seeks to blame ALL of womens trouble on white men – not all men of course, and as we have seen even rape is OK providing the man is an effnik.
      Racism is the preserve of white only as is every single on of their isms and phobias, they are all the tools of the closet Fascist who have been able to impose this oppression simply because our grandparents didn’t want to talk about it !

    “First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has warned Theresa May she is not “bluffing” over her promise to hold an independence referendum if Scotland’s vote against Brexit is “not respected”.” ………….
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-37747995
    Call her Bluff I say, because there was always going to be another call for ‘independence’, Brexit or no Brexit .
    Once we are out of the EU, I cannot see Scotland going anywhere fast.
    Many Scottish people voted to stay part of the UK and many Scottish people voted for Brexit .

      It seems the London media have decided the barely comprehensible utterings of some North of the border fruit loop and questionable descent into PC farce of the NI legal system are top of the hour priorities for the rest of the county.

      They really are not. Can’t wait to see how Facebook is reacting where the editors can’t filter.

      Wasn’t it just after Brexit that Sturgeon went rushing off to Belgium to try to ingratiate herself with the autocratic swine who run the EU? The swine snubbed her, declaring that, as part of the UK, Scotland had to abide by the decision to leave.

        The whole shebang appears to be the embodiment of bristling, sour resentment.

        I would hate to be her other half. He must get quite nervous at home – it must be like being followed around by a brooding black cloud, ready to disgorge its ire and cold bile on any pleasant moment no matter how fleeting.

      Some Scots said that they were going to vote ‘Remain’ in the EU precisely because they didn’t want the SNP to use Brexit as an excuse to cause more trouble to our union.

      It’s the same idea as voting for someone whose politics you don’t like when your man hasn’t got a chance of beating the front-runner who you like even less.

      Sturgeon can’t hold an independence referendum because she doesn’t have that delegation from Westminster. Neither does she have delegation for foreign policy and any visits abroad should be paid for from her own pocket.

      Importantly, the BBC have edited out the question, no, statement by their reporter who said, ‘Teresa May thinks you’re bluffing about a second referendum’. She says it with such certainty – not it seems that…or Mrs May might be…

      What Sturgeon wants is for the Scots to feel aggrieved – to be insulted, it’s only that way that Sturgeon can hope to win a vote. Here the anti-British Broadcasting Corporation oblige with a made up assertion by one of their reporters – in this case, Scotland Editor, Sarah Smith.

      Sturgeon’s response to the unbroadcast question makes it all seem so contrived.

    Not on the BBC:

    Despite the rain and floods, that makes a record eleven years since a major (Category 3-5) hurricane last made landfall in the United States (Wilma in October 2005). The previous record major hurricane hiatus was nine years, 1860-1869, according to NOAA’s Hurricane Research Division.

    Only a charlatan would suggest that this record lull is due to rising atmospheric carbon dioxide levels. But plenty of alarmist charlatans claim that any violent or “unseasonal” storms are due to “too much” CO2.

    Since recordkeeping began in 1851, the US has been hit by 63 Category 3 hurricanes, 21 Cat 4 storms and three Category 5s (1935, 1969 and 1995). Of 51 hurricanes that struck in October, 15 were Category 3-4. Other significant gaps in major hurricane strikes on US coasts occurred in 1882-86, 1910-15 and 1921-26.

    The worst periods were 1893-1900 (8 Category 3-5 ‘canes), 1915-21 (8 Cat 3-4), 1926-35 (8 Cat 3-5), 1944-50 (8 Cat 3-4), 1959-69 (7 Cat 3-5), and 2004-05 (7 Category 3-4 hurricanes in just two years).

    There is no pattern or trend in this record, and certainly no link to carbon dioxide levels.

    Or this

    A new study by the Institute for Competition Economics concludes that Germany’s “green energy transition” will cost €520 billion ($572 billion) by 2025 – just to switch from gas and coal to renewable electricity generation. These costs will keep accumulating long after 2025, and do not cover “decarbonizing” the country’s transportation, heating and agriculture sectors, the study points out.

    This €520-billion bill amounts to a €25,000 ($27,500) surcharge for every German family – and 70% of it will come due over the next nine years. That bill is nearly equal to the average German family’s total net worth: €27,000. It is a massive regressive tax that will disproportionately impact low-income families, which already spend a far higher portion of their annual incomes on energy, and rarely have air conditioning

      If this comes to pass, what with the costs of looking after the “migrants”, Germany will be bust. And with us gone, who will pay the EU’s bills? It looks as if the whole house of cards might fall.

      As well as welcoming the islamic colonizers to Germany, Merkel also panicked after Fukushima and ordered the end of Germany’s nuclear power industry, even though the risks of a tsunami hitting Germany are low (apart from a tsunami of migrants of course).

      I think she will go down in history as the most disastrous Cerman Chancellor since you-know-who. Worse, in some respects. After all, Germany did eventually recover after Hitler. I’m not so sure there will be a Germany at all in 50 years, certainly not one we would recognise as German.

    The BBC has serious competition among lefty US ‘journalists’ – who appear unashamed of laundering the news to favour Clinton over Trump.

    And so I was astounded to hear even a timid question put to Clinton re Wikileaks and her ‘pay to play’ activity by one of the aforementioned media people. Crooked Hillary slid away from the question with practised ease, after which the media personage proved how desperate she was to hold the great lady’s attention by asking her about her favourite Miley Cyrus* song.

    You can’t make this stuff up. It’s from 5 minutes in:

    *Who is Miley Cyrus, you might well ask. She’s a ‘singer’ who tries to disguise her lack of ability to sing by being obscene on stage. She’s also the daughter of the dude who sang the hit, ‘My achy, breaky heart’, which demonstrates whence her lack of talent stems.

    She’s also a Clinton supporter and has just gone on a Clinton-supporting jaunt, so I suppose there was some justification for the question put to Clinton.

    To redress the balance and cheer yourself up( it is very doubtful if the MSM here will report it ) watch Viktor Orban’s speech on Gates of Vienna.
    Superb speech on the anniversary of the 56 uprising. Not words to treat lightly. No comfort there for the BBC snowflakes. An unashamed defence of our European free peoples and serving notice that the Hungarians and the Poles will not allow Brussels to morph into a Soviet style tyranny. And if it does then Hungary will do what needs to be done to stay a free nation .
    Would that we had a politician of Orban’s stature here. In Hungary a free man can start to breathe again.
    Then if you can bear to listen and watch May and Clegg and Sturgeon and the rest of them and weep for this country that such nobodies dare to try to dictate to one of the oldest and most free peoples in the world.
    Orban has no time for cowards who will not stand up for freedom. He is right. Unless we are free we have nothing. By this creed the Hungarians live and so should we.

      Agreed Dave no Orban here yet (except maybe Farage) – unfortunately in the world of the snowflake freedom is taken as given. I suppose this is because mummy and daddy have always been their to make it better.

      These shallow, straw men and women have absolutely no concept of the sacrifices that others have made in the past so they can sit on their complacent rear ends and throw it all away.

      Freedom is easily lost but hard fought to regain.

      It never ceases to amaze me that supposedly intelligent people do not appreciate this.

      I suppose at the end of the day it is all about “heart” and not intelligence. Maybe

      Dave s, I wouldn’t put May in the same category as Sturgeon and Clegg. She was quick and decisive in appointing the Brexit team and has set a date for article 50. And even though she has caught the virus of political correctness she shows more old-fashioned guts than most if not all Tories and is unapologetic about using nukes to defend the UK.

      She’s no Thatcher, but she’s probably the best of a bad bunch.

      I just watched his speech. I agree with his comments about unfettered immigration and the leftie conspiracy against the People. But his commitments to the EU and EU army were very disappointing. He said that the peoples of Hungary and Poland are the most pro-EU. That was also disappointing as I had hoped that those two countries would be our main allies in our struggle against the EU.

    Just tried to watch/listen to the newsmedia……..Long article on Sky News about the dangers of ‘heading’ the ball in football and it’s likely cause of brain danage (it may well be the case) but the human interest story as usual is just a cover, really it is just an excuse to attack anything traditionally English…. bbbc and it is back to the ‘children’ and how unfortunate they are etc etc.

    So all of it is either mea culpa, self flagellation stuff or slow but sure undermining of traditional values and practices of iold England.

    I heard Boy George on Radio 2 earlier, plugging his latest project.

    If a white male football pundit foolishly says a racist word off air (no crime committed), then he will never appear on the BBC again. If a white male DJ foolishly touches a woman’s breasts (three-month prison sentence), then he will never appear on the BBC again, not even archive footage. But if a gay man imprisons, traumatises and violently tortures a white male (fifteen-month prison sentence), that’s no problem for the BBC at all.

    The double standards are quite blatant.

      The Threat of a Judicial review of the BBC‘s censorship policy for climate science, scientists and scientific debate, has now reached the appeal to the BBC Trust stage. The BBC Trust will probably ask Brian Hoskins and Bob Ward to produce an extensive whitewash, excluding the “Best Scientific experts” excuse, as the BBC Trust wont be abolished until 31st March 2019 when some secret contracts terminate. Nobody in Mensa seems to be involved with this complaint, so I don’t know much else other than some of the names of BBC staff who would be brought to the courts.

    Communist party complains about the Sun and Mail for daring to question the age of gimmiegrants !

    According to Ipso’s code of practice pictures of children under the age of 16 should not be used unless adult consent has been given.

    Bartley argued that the coverage did not qualify as an “exceptional public interest” that would allow the newspapers to override the Ipso code.

    “They should not have printed them without knowing first that they were certainly over 16. This isn’t simply a case of potential rule-breaking, it’s also about press ethics.”

    Appalling attempt to silence freedom of speech on a very important issue.
