        Gaxvil, “Michael Moore – is that gravy stained, waste of organs, bloater still alive?”. He is alive and well. You can find him starring as Jabba the Hut in Star Wars and Pizza the Hut in Spaceballs. They chose him as he didn’t need any make up.

    Finding myself at a loose end today, I tuned into The Archer’s on Radio 4. You know the soap, it’s a tale of ordinary folk living in the sticks in a fictitious village called Ambridge. The stories used to have a rural theme but the last few editors have introduced hard politically correct storylines; there is the gay chef and the gay farmer (makes Ted & Ralf look like Shakespeare); a female Indian Hindu solicitor called Usha Franks who is married to the vicar (she was once blinded by a BNP type thug who is now her friend); Elizabeth Pargetter, a widow, who is falling for the Pakistani maths teacher who is tutoring her son; Kate the errant daughter of a rich farmer who ran off to Africa, married an African and had a mixed race child called Nolly. She’s now returned but left her child behind. The latest addition to Ambridge, remember the village where they all live in the middle of the countryside is Anisha Jayakody, an equine vet who wants to become a partner in the local vets. I’ve heard on the grapevine that her halal method of putting her terminal patients to sleep suspended from the ceiling using only a sharp knife while whispering Alan’s Snackbar into their furry ears is a storyline that is certain to get people talking! BTW that’s all listeners can do. The producer stopped the HYS feature on the shows web page because the listeners where voicing their displeasure over the ridiculous politically correct storylines that they were having rammed down their ears.

    BBC Radio 4 All In The Mind – normally a production about mental health issues, what could possibly go wrong with bias there?

    Well today its a full blown Fascist fest with the suggestion that people who don’t follow the Fascist view of the world should be subject to involuntary psychiatric evaluation!
    Then they move onto Donald Trump and suggest that he is clearly insane and MUST be evaluated.

    Just where do these people get their insane ideas from and what right do they think they have to suggest such draconian totalitarian ideas over a public service network?

    Then its on to the ‘Media Show’ where New York times hack Dean Baquet is interviewed over his hatred for Donald Trump, and at the end it is revealed that the NY Times has declared for crooked Hilary !
    Then there’s the new press regulator and an aghast BBC that newspapers have failed to sign up to ‘impress’ which they regard as state control of the press.

    Then there’s the AT & T merger with Time Warner, and almost immediately they unbelievably go straight back to Donald Trump who has apparently said he will veto it !

    It’s almost like they are obsessed by the man and there’s some kind of directive to attack him every 10 minutes !

      Thoughtful, the idea that those who don’t share the same political views are in some way mentally ill is an old one. The Soviets used it a lot, and I suppose it goes back all the way to the catch-all ‘demonic possession’ which the ancient and medieval world liked to use as well. Like the Great Deceiver himself, the idea will come back again and again, cloaked in different guises.

    I watched the Daily Politics programme today and became intrigued by what Theresa May had to say about Brexit today in the House of Commons, I transcripted her exact words

    “..what we want to see is the best possible arrangement for trade with, and operation within the Single European Market for businesses for goods and services here in the United Kingdom.”

    The key word here is the word “within”.

    No we don’t Theresa, I want out of the Single European Market as you cannot be in it without the Free Movement of people.

    She’s a weak ditherer in my book. ‘Theresa the Appeaser rings true.’

    • Thoughtful says:

      I don’t agree.

      We want to have access to the single market – but May has made it abundantly clear that we cannot accept free movement so if as you say we cannot have that without free movement then we won’t be in. That’s doesn’t stop it being a goal though.

      Personally I believe that we will get nothing, because with God knows how many countries regions needing to ratify any agreement, and the vote of only one to destroy it the chances of getting anything decent is virtually zero.

      I believe the correct way to deal with negotiations is never to open them, but to declare some swingeing import tariffs against the EU forcing them into concessions which suit the UK and which the EU will force other countries to ratify.
      This is the only language the weak & incompetent EU understand – just look at the trade negotiations with Canada and compare it to the complete capitulation to Turkey for examples.

        Thoughtful, time will tell as they say.

        You evoke some interesting thoughts. You said you didn’t agree but then upon reading your response I agreed with much of what you wrote! There are a couple of points though I’d like the oppotunity of taking up.
        Firstly,
        “but May has made it abundantly clear that we cannot accept free movement”
        Which is true, however I rarely believe politicians when they make binary statements. They always fall back on the Keynes statement of ‘when the facts change I change my mind.’

        Theresa May was, I believe, a ditherer as a Home Secretary and I have no reason currently to suggest she has changed.
        I would suggest that the EU will make the running in the forthcoming negotiations and that our government will be at an instant disadvantage in their attempts to try and appease the Remainers, many of whom constitute over 70% of the current Parliamentarians. I hope they don’t as the referendum result should be viewed as binary.

        This, dare I say it, could mean concessions on free movement or provide some financial disbursement to certain regions of the EU. I sincerely hope this does not happen but I fear the worst and would very much like to be proven wrong.

        Remember Theresa May was a Remainer herself. Of her cabinet does she swing with Hammond or Fox/Davis? I fear it’s the fellow pro ‘Remainer’ Hammond.

        ‘I believe the correct way to deal with negotiations is never to open them, but to declare some swingeing import tariffs against the EU forcing them into concessions which suit the UK and which the EU will force other countries to ratify.’
        I fear the above statement might irritate the EU a bit. In fact quite a bit. I like your positive approach though Thoughtful.

        I would like to see John Redwood negotiating on our behalf opposite the odious Guy Verhofstadt. I don’t think he will take any prisoners and is a dyed in the wool Leaver.

        The free trade agreement with Canada has to be agreed by all EU members (though I agree the Walloonian veto came as a surprise). However, I believe that the Article 50 negotiations will be decided by a qualified majority vote, so the views of obscure Belgian regional parliaments will not matter. Germany rules the EU, and we have a very large trade defecit with Germany. I think the outlines of a deal are pretty obvious.

    BBC News Channel sports report this evening returns to that long-time BBC canard ‘the openly gay Premiership footballer’

    The quest goes on – perhaps the BBC should put Autumn Watch on the look out.

    How about a BBC-sponsered pink tented ‘hide’ at each soccer ground. BBC reporters equiped with ‘bi-noculars’ keeping watch when a tackle goes in that looks a little extra-friendly.

    Of course BBC news credits their sport and leftist campaigning obssessed radio arm 5 Live with this new stepping up in their long-running mild goose chase…

    BBC 5 Live have surveyed fans, apparently. Goodness knows what to make of the BBC statistics on this non-issue.

    The bBC its so called impartial news reporting and Bombing civilians in Syria:
    Syria conflict: Schoolchildren killed in Idlib air raids
    More than 20 people, many of them children, have been killed in air strikes on a rebel-held village in north-western Syria, activists say.
    A school complex was reportedly among several locations targeted in the village of Haas, in Idlib province. It was not immediately clear if the raids were carried out by Syrian government or Russian warplanes.vState media quoted a military source as saying several “terrorists” had been killed when their positions were hit. The incident comes as the government and its ally Russia said they would continue a moratorium on the aerial bombardment of besieged, rebel-held eastern districts of the city of Aleppo.

    So a school in Syria gets hit, over 20 children are murdered and the bBC reports the story without emotion or much fanfare. Which is exactly as how it should be reporting the news. which is strange as when the US,UK or Israel hit a school,hospital mosque the bBC goes hell for leather in which to scream out that this incident was/is a human rights crime. However the bBC then does what is does best in deflecting the reader away from story that the US led coalition may have killed hundreds inside Syria. (Of course to the bBC, ISIS terrorists can only be deemed as civilians)
    Meanwhile, Amnesty International said thousands appeared to have been killed in 11 air strikes in Syria by the US-led coalition.

    what makes this story a joke is that the bBC have to go back 2 years , to Sept 2014, in which to make that claim.
    1,000 civilians could have been killed by coalition forces since the air campaign in Syria began in September 2014.

    Now here’s a salient fact that the do-gooders above don’t mention. The US led coalition have used only precision guided munitions (PGM) in conjunction with targeting pods. what this means is they have been using a scalpel in which to take out Islamic terrorists.

    In contrast the Russians and Syrians have used very few PGMs and aircraft fitted with Targeting Pods. They have resorted to using the good old fashioned dumb bomb (As unchanged from WW2) in great quantities in which to wipe entire regions off the map. (Which is exactly what they are doing in Aleppo) Here is a video of one such bomb dump over Syria.

    when it comes to the crunch, I think we will find that Russia and Syria have a lot more inncent blood on their hands than the US led coalition, but hey why change a habit of a lifetime in attacking the West and defending Russia and Islam.

    Funny enough the picture used in the above video clip is of an IDF F15 and not a Russian jet.

          The good thing about the Russians, compared to us and the Americans, they have no qualms about killing Muslims. I certainly don’t think (for example) they would operate in a war zone against them, under the same rules of engagement that the Allies did in Afghanistan.

          The Russians know what they are dealing with: two wars in Chechnya and atrocities like Beslan, will mean they’ll prosecute the war to a conclusion that they believe satisfactory.

          They don’t want ISIS or Al-Quaeda controlling a country, which is then only one country away from their southern borderlands. The U.S. on the other hand is protected on either side by an anti-tank trench thousands of miles wide, yet somehow feels the need to interfere; though ineffectually.

    Reality vs BBC Metropolitan elites naivety + The bomber in the burqa
    Was raised within 20 mins on Radio 4 this morning
    At 9:45 Alan Bennett alerted us to the naivety of the Metropolitan elites mouthing off with romantic certainty about things they know nothing of
    and then 1 minute later : he did it himself.
    + Yet 20 minutes earlier Libby Purviss had exhibited the same metropolitan luvvie naiviety getting a shock to her certain belief that : No one should be suspicious about anyone in a burqa, that’s very wrong and very bad.. Only to be told about a time a bomber in a burqa was intercepted on his way to bomb a bus of kids.

    That Alan Bennett piece 1:02 talking about Auden having a romantic and WRONG view of northern villages, cos “everything about Auden is urban.”
    ie making the very good point that you can’t understand something until you experience it.
    – Then next minute he’s talking about British sailors being seized and paraded by the Iranian govt.

    Much the same, though milder treatment that the Americans mete out to those who happen to be in the wrong place in Afghanistan who are hooded and taken not just to Tehran but half way around the world where they still are ..and waiting for trial. No one makes this comparison of course, though the innocence of those captured is in most cases approximately the same; but one are decent honourable British sailors with wives and children waiting them at home ..the others are BROWN MEN in robes who can’t expect any better” (to 2m48s)

    WTF that is just a naive assertion that he gives no evidence for.
    We do know that many tens of thousands of guys were arrested in Afghanistan after a lot of deadly terrorist attacks and that it the vast vast majority did not end up in Guantanamo Bay. (775 did)
    – I have met 2 people arrested in Afghanistan “We were astounded , we got handed over to the Americans, and it was not how we expected ..the American’s were just so polite and by the book…Months later we got a parcel to our home they’d developed and printed all our photos and sent them for free.”

      BBC metropolitan elites #2 : If you listen to Midweek from a few minutes earlier at around 9:30am you can hear Libby Purviss saying something being shocked as the real world hits her.

      24:46 “We all fear the danger of demonising decent Muslim’s”
      the undercover MI5 officer is telling his story about trailing an Islamic terrorist in London who enters the Mosque as a man and comes out dressed in a full burqa. And then mentions they intercepted him on his way to bomb a bus of kids.
      25:48 LP says “As a human being one just gets so angry on behalf of all the poor Muslim women who do no harm, and now come under suspicion…”

      She doesn’t seem to realise us evil non-luvvies have a right to raise concerns about : that 1 in a million chance that one time a bomber will use a burqa.
      She puts her guilt and Virtue Signalling above actual practicalities.

        The thing is Libby, I am forced to go through security at airports and be subjected to personal searches of myself and my belongings, even though I am never going to cause harm to another person on an plane or in an airport. Why are you not concerned that we are all put under suspicion in this way, but you are that people that wear Islamic uniform might be?

          Since they lie all the time and swear what does she mean ?
          I’m guessing that after liberalising themselves of the old taboos they created new taboos and that being controversial means being in anyway challenging to a pet minority cause.

        Why should the BBC listen to us when we agree on hardly anything?

        You ask about the issue of a confined space, but they clearly didn’t do it in a confined space so why even raise it? Unless of course it’s just so you can take issue with it?

        The point of it is that people are completely switched on to the fact that Muslims are terrorists, and are quite capable of random acts of murderous violence. It’s not just one or two, it’s loads of people who are all prepared to believe that the Muslim has a viable bomb.

          You didn’t explain the reason for posting – it’s caption reads ‘funny videos – try not to laugh’. I am simply saying that throwing a rucksack at someone, IMHO is frightening and distressing, not funny, in the same way as someone shouting ‘bomb’ in an airport or similar. I don’t think many of the terrorists in recent attacks on the West were dressed in Arab garb like this either – correct me if I’m wrong.

    As many have noted before, if the BBC has to mention the ethnicity of mis-behaving members of our taxi-driving community it falls back on the description ‘Asian’ rather than getting to the point, thereby libelling the Chinese, for example.

    Over in Paris ‘Asians’, according to the BBC, are being beaten up. Fortunately it isn’t a case of ‘Islamophobia’ as these ‘Asians’ are Chinese!

    Read the article and one can only conclude that it is those damn ‘French’ French that are causing all the trouble.

    Read The Telegraph and we find:

          Russia has only to wave a stick at the EU and it will fold over anything- it has no real military capability. Hopefully Trump will be elected and take US money and men back home. The external borders of the EU will collapse. The left wing hold over Eu policy will also collapse.
          So now we should put in our leaving note asap. That will concentrate minds and make May either reveal her ( I suspect ) true colours or get on with it.

    Morning after the night before

    This morning our BBC sofa bods confidently describe Bake Off as ‘the biggest thing on tv’ – well, with the demise of Top Gear that was the number one show and now that cake fest is bereft of presenters and lost to Channel 4 – that should be ‘formerly the biggest’

    Rumours are going around that a production team went to the BBC with the idea for a show titled ‘The Great British Piss Up in a Brewery’ – unfortunately BBC bosses rejected the idea saying ‘We don’t think we could manage that’

    And as for that bloody migrant camp…

    Let’s just remind ourselves of some of the somewhat under-reported words of Philippe Mignonet, deputy mayor of Calais:

    “The ease with which illegal immigrants can work on the black market in Britain, coupled with the fact that migrants’ family members can more easily join them, means that Britain is a magnet for illegal immigrants”

    Mr Mignonet claimed 15,000 migrants were entering Britain illegally through France every year, up to 40 migrants were getting through to the UK every night despite the efforts of the UK and French border agencies to stop them.

    He called for Britain to stop ‘provoking’ France with its soft immigration policies.

    He said the decision to raze the camp was the kind of hard-line policy that Britain should adopt as it prepared to leave the EU, rather than attracting newcomers with generous benefits.

    “The UK Government says it does not want any more migrants but never expels migrants who get there”

    And the latest absurd figure to be enthusiastically embraced by the Beeb is that ‘world wildlife’ has reduced by 58% since the 1970s. In common with climate change it would seem that the more extreme, unsubstantiated and ludicrous the statistic, the more publicity and breast-beating it attracts.
    I suppose, to be fair, if vastly reduced numbers of mosquitos, lice, bugs, flies and fleas are included due to improved human hygiene, ‘wildlife’ numbers are very probably down but to use the term in the accepted sense to claim as a fact that over half the world’s fauna has been lost is simply sensationalist nonsense – hence automatic coverage via the BBC, and very probable promotion during tonight’s ‘Autumnwatch’.

    Not strictly bBBC except that they would not be slow to perpetrate the following deceit.
    A letter in the Telegraph from Dr. S Field.
    He notes that the Global Gender Equality Index ignores cases where women outperform. Thus more women going to university than men doesn’t count towards the inequality result. But more men than women going to university does.
    The extra life expectancy of women does not count, nor does earlier pension ages for women or cases of compulsory military service only for men.
    Can you imagine the biased BBC mentioning any of this the next time it sounds off on the gender gap ?

      Yesterday the BBC was telling us that women ‘typically’ earn 9% less than men, whatever that means, as the ‘typical’ women doing the same job as a man surely gets paid the same?

      The TUC, as usual, is totally bonkers:

      TUC general secretary Frances O’Grady said: “The full-time gender pay gap is closing at a snail’s pace. At this rate, it will take decades for women to get paid the same as men.

      “We need a labour market that works better for women. This means helping mums get back into well-paid jobs after they have kids, and encouraging dads to take on more caring responsibilities.”

      So we have to reduce the pay for dad by making him work fewer hours and pull mum away from their children and shoehorn her into a ‘well-paid’ job, even though she has been out of touch with the world of work for a year or so. Her childless sisters must love the idea of seeing someone less experienced being fast-tracked into a good job!

      Anyone who has been out of work for a while or who seeks to return to a past specialism will have been told, “I’m sorry your skills are out of date, we’re looking for someone with current experience”, yet this won’t apply to the new mums?

      Equality madness! No barriers, yes, but numerical equality, no, that is plain stupid and smacks of centralised planning, not freedom.

        The men in the club said that they come to the club to escape from the wife, and to drink, talk and read in peace.
        I heard that today there are almost three times more women only organisations than men only organisations, and the men only organisations are all under siege to let in women members, but there is almost no pressure on women only organisations to let in Men.
        I suppose the reason is that you can only allow segregation if left-wing people think you are inferior.

    More good news as reported in the Telegraph and the exact opposite of what Nissan said when helping to orchestrate Project Fear:

    “Nissan to build new model in Britain despite Brexit
    Stepping away from the GDP reaction for a moment, Reuters are reporting that Nissan is planning to build its new Qashqai model at Britain’s biggest car plant in Sunderland. Here’s the full report:

    Japanese carmaker Nissan will build its new Qashqai model at Britain’s biggest car plant, a company source told Reuters on Thursday, in a major boost to Prime Minister Theresa May just months after voters backed Brexit.”

    Apart from the resignation of Carney, who foisted an unnecessary interest rate cut on us this summer just because he forecast a recession, can we also have an apology from all the big corporations like Nissan, Goldman Sachs, JP Morgan etc who lined up behind Cameron-Osborne to insult the intelligence of the British people?

      I am very pleased about the news on Sunderland. But the point is that Nissan are not sentimentalists. Sunderland is one of their major car plants, it is the most productive they have, and it has a very well motivated workforce. You simply cannot replicate that elsewhere in a couple of years.

      That is why the Sunderland plant will survive. It is a successful business which is well managed and has an excellent workforce. The French should try it sometime.

        It was always b@ll@cks that Nissan were going to relocate their plant out of the U.K.

        Their plant in Sunderland was subsidized to high heaven by the British government, they didn’t pay business rates for 5 years. Did anybody really think that the Germans, French or the government of any other country would have offered them that now?
        Also look at how many Nissan and other Japanese brands you see driving around in the U.K. then compare that with the number you see in France; Germany; Italy etc. The U.K. must be one of the biggest markets for Japanese cars in Europe (if not the biggest) Nissan weren’t going to walk away from that, for Brexit or anything else.

        If they had left, they would then have the cost of building another plant somewhere within the EU and could then find their products (potentially) hit with tariffs, if there is no trade agreement between us and the EU, when they want to export back into one of their biggest markets: Great Britain.

        I caught a bit of ‘FooC’ this morning on Radio 4.

        What particularly annoyed me, as well as the Black-racist piece about Harlem, was another item from Germany. The theory put forward was that differences in use of language would lead to Anglo-German misunderstandings, both in general and the particular case of Brexit negotiations. It was all rather tendentious.

        The correspondent trotted out the old stereotype of the over-polite English person who says no, when offered a plate of biscuits, but means yes and expects the plate will come round again. It was claimed that the Germans would take a no as a no and not beat about the bush, expecting guests to say what they meant. I have seldom experienced this ‘false no’ and it is something I associate with an era long gone if the practice ever existed outside of certain ‘refined’ circles.

        The thrust of the piece was that English-speakers don’t say what they mean. Well, maybe that’s just politeness and custom at times. Meanwhile, there were no stereotypes about Germans, e.g. their unquestioning attitude to authority (I’m thinking Merkel and not Hitler) and their use of ‘Herr Doktor this’ and ‘Frau Doktor that’ for people who are no better educated than I am (a mere B.A. Hons from a red brick university).

        Fooc Off, BBC!

          To be fair to them there will be occasions during the negotiations when we might use the word “Please”; but we don’t mean it anymore.

            We’re not the only race that doesn’t say what it means. Just look at the refugees saying they are 14 years old.

          And not even a comment about her ethnic origins from Al or the very small c consrvative Shulagh. You would think they would at least want to know where Als potential future partner trained, wouldn’t you? If not in Britain then a well respected university. The BBCs refusal to countenance even that reveals much about their attitude and their willingness to subsume realistic scripting to the political agenda.

    The bbc have become obsessed with mental health of late. Looking at their brexit commentary I would suggest their reporters are all suffering from anhedonia.

    The Jungle – All those years has anyone protested the French? Has anyone protested our lax immigration rules and bountiful hand-out system? Has anyone protested the people and governments of the primitive cultures and corrupt governments of the immigrants countries?
    Well, no, not much but we can blame the ordinary working people of Britain and make them feel really, really bad?

    OK World Media Zombies are you ready to regurgitate WWF’s PR sheet on world species decline ?
    “Yes” says BBC : World wildlife ‘falls by 58% in 40 years’
    even Russian propaganda channel Sputnic can do better than that
    “Population of Vertebrate Animals Fell 58%”
    got that thick BBC ? VERTEBRATE not all animals

    Even then the data has been cherry picked and manipulated/tortured
    Hint It’s the same old “Living Planet assessment” report they’ve been releasing for years .. that was bogus the first time
    Last time they said 50%
    World wildlife populations halved in 40 years – report” – BBC News 30 Sep 2014

    * BUT * BBC More or less explained WWF’s magic maths last time !! (download the podcast very good) Oct 2014

    another older one BBC More or less explained (direct link to audio)

    There is also a handy BBC page webpage on the count of species NOT actually going extinct 2012

    I never donate or support corrupt NGOs like WWF

      I see earlier at 12:32pm @Up2Stuff hinted to the big flaws
      ie that BBC WWF species decline piece actually doubly debunks it’s own headline
      “World wildlife ‘falls by 58% in 40 years'”
      cos buried in the text is

      This analysis looked at 3,700 different species of birds, fish, mammals, amphibians and reptiles – about 6% of the total number of vertebrate species in the world.”

      #1 it’s only vertebrates
      #2 They didn’t include 94% of vertebrates species in the survey..just 6%

      A bit harsh Pounce! I can’t see why you don’t want these middle aged men who have relentlessly broken every single law in Europe to get to one of the safest countries on earth… Where they then show complete disregard and intolerance to the laws of that country, use violence and intimidation to those in position of authority (the police) and then lie about their age to the detriment of those in genuine need like Syrian Christians and Yazidis……… 🙂

        @to
        I have a laugh with people by telling that my boyfriend has left me in which to go to Syria. Then when their faces express shock, I come out with..
        “He wants to be a suicide bummer”
        (I actually said that to the mother-in-law and she simply replied..”Yes dear”. My better half went ballistic)

        But I’ve now changed that for:
        “I am a child asylum seeker”
        Where the former got a laugh, the anger expressed at this huge liberal scam soon become evident. I am sick to death at been classed as a f-ing racist for telling the truth. I am sick to death of been classed as intolerant and I am sick to death of excuses for every Islamic sanction terrorist act carried out in the west.

        And the liberal answer is:
        We have to change our ways

          It’s being called a racist by Gary Lineker for questioning “age” that makes my blood boil. I’m pretty certain no-one mentioned race when questioning the age of these fraudsters. Are there any lawyers on this site who could advise whether calling us all racists is in fact a hate crime?

      In reality the BBC/liberal media etc are terrified of the unswayables./deplorables.
      Even Michael Moore has got it and realised that Trump is a genuine rebel and nearer to an old fashioned socialist/conservative than any normal Republican/ Democrat.
      They are loyal to Trump because he speaks directly to them and seems to connect. The globalists have all but bought the US to it’s knees and they know it. So does Trump and this is his appeal.
      Trump, Farage, Orban, Marine le Pen and the others they are the real people who now count. Forget the Brussels apparatchniks and May and Trudeau and Clinton and Merkel. They will still have their successes but they are finished.
      Liberalism and it’s vile adherents and enablers were defying reality. It had to end and end it will.
      One real danger. In it’s last moments liberalism will try to divert us with an exterior threat. That looks like Russia. So beware .
      I would not put anything past them as they know they are finished. Even a nuclear war is possible so insane are these people.
