    After yesterday’s near continuous propaganda in the form of the uncritical airtime devoted to the Labour manifesto, you might have hoped for a break today.
    No chance. The election priority today is to advertise Corbyn’s cuddly pacifist defence policy.
    Further down the news we get Treezer taking on Labour in the North East- a tough sell, which gives the biased BBC the chance to show her in an unsuccessful light.
    It just never ends………..

      ROFL!. Cmon Mandy s boys, the Red Tories were behind it. The Tories couldn t wait to start the hatchet job, they thought they had a scoop, had to laugh at QT with that Tory Councillor.
      When it comes to Liar May, another fake event, fake crowd, fake promises, for a faker PM … What s new Sluff?
      On Corbyn
      Its simply a matter of more media coverage, because of the GE, and him getting out of the poisonous cesspool of Westminster, and that s despite the rabid smearing from the press gutter rags like, The Sun, The Torygraph, The Mail, The Express etc.
      Don t forget, like him or not, he has worked tirelessly to hold the Labour party together despite an almost totally biased media campaign to blacken his name and mendacious troublemaking from so called Labour MPs, (nothing but traitorous underhand Red Tories), within his own party.
      He is passionate about what he believes in and believe me would wipe the floor with Liar May in a genuine debate.
      Objectively the facts speak for themselves, Corbyn achieved those 2 leaderships because of the unhappiness felt by the grassroots Labour supporters in the street with the current crop of wildly disconnected, privately schooled, university educated Labour “so called” elite who have the brazen audacity to pretend to stand for ‘the working man’
      While feathering their own nests at the expense of the country… Self serving greed, unfortunately is not restricted to politicians of just one stripe, however but is a symptom of our deliberately manufactured grasping and venal society, being particularly prevalent among all politicians.
      Sheesh! just look at Liar May and the Tory front bench for the perfect example, devious, utterly incompetent, smearing fork tongues
      who will screw our nations people, and sell them down the river.

      There is an eye watering amount of influence, airtime and money in keeping Liar May in No 10, despite her putting party first over our nation, causing deliberate damaging delay over EU, disastrous over our national debt, barefaced lying over the election, a proven not to be trusted turncoat … and a withering failure in every bloody job she s held … a devious, spiteful, underhand, smearing politician of the lowest order.
      Get her in some debates, show her for what she is, the crone shouldn t be able to crawl out of it.

        Are you on the correct blog?
        Your comments look like the standard rant that those who favour the politics of The Guardian tend to indulge in.

        Also you sound a bit down? Are you ok?
        There wasn’t much content about Al beeb.

        Hang on in there . It will all be over on June 9.

    Oh dear, it looks like the virus which affected several NHS trust is likely to be used by the BBC and other unscrupulous media outlets to claim that the cause is the Tories underfunding the NHS when it is nothing of the sort.

    This is partly the fault of managers who have not upgraded security on software, because they wanted to spend the money elsewhere, also the fact that someone actually clicked on a link in an Email and allowed the virus into the system.
    On top of that is a myriad of equipment which runs all kinds of software versions, but still work.

    There is an issue with the capabilities of NHS IT staff who could and should have strengthened the security of the Email system – running a separate computer for this would have been advisable in any event – even Hilary could manage that one !
    Expect the BBC to be rubbing its hands at a chance to beat the Tories over funding cuts.

    Since then this might actually be the fault of one of Tony BLiar’s PFI partnerships, which means the NHS have to use Windows XP until the contract is over.

      Indeed, and they’re still running with the headline that this is a cyber attack, as if it was specifically targeted at the NHS rather than someone clicking a dodgy link. They probably want people to think it was those pesky Russians what did it.

        Heis and Thoughtful – These “Fancy Bears” really do seem to get around.

        I suppose it is just a matter of time before we get the BBC headline “Russians Hack Labour in order to stop May being elected!”

        And of course assuming Labour lose – maybe we will then have to suffer months of BBC speculation as to whether the result is legitimate and should the election be re-run because of Russian interference.

        And if that fails there is always the good ol “People didnt really know what they were voting for!”

      This story is being spun to make out that the NHS is underfunded. I doubt that’s the cause. It’s not clear that the NHS was targetted. Attacks like this are everyday. Once infected the answer is isolate and rebuild infected systems, restore from backup, patch if possible, block known malicious sites and emails. Even obsolete systems can be protected, even modern systems can be vulnerable.

    As usual it’s as much as what Albeeb chooses to leave out as much as what they report. We haven’t really heard much about Corbyns past – quotes and votes – from Al beeb. If he is a pacifist let him say so . He was/is the leader of the “stop the war ” group .,it seems only fair to be told what he believes in to enable people to choose. But al beeb seems not to want to tell us for some reason . PS i remember comrade Corbyn back to the seventies . He is consistent with his anti British multicultural Marxist beliefs.

      The report from our blessed North East news about the visit was even more biased.
      The local reporter only interested if she was going to speak to “ordinary working class people ” and took delight in announcing that the speeches she made were only to select audiences of so called conservative activists. He did this on two occasions despite the fact one of them was on her immediate arrival to the North East at a secluded airfield.
      I am pretty sure I didn’t see to many tory members in the audience at J.C’s show in Chatham.

    Update
    Not albeeb yet but the blessed Guardian is quoting a writer called Ian Mcewan at an anti brexit love in today blaming Brexit on a million and a half nasty old men who will be dead by the time we leave the EU ( I paraphrase ) . This man is 69 years old. Much older than me . I voted out and am proud of that.

    Not really a BBC story but certainly contained a couple of the BBCs current favourite slebs. Topped by the ghastly Gina and the Fragrant Sir Bob. Gina acting like one of Boudicca’s wronged daughters and Sir Bob stumbling around like the Return of the Mummy with his rictus grin spouting bile and bitterness to all who would give this unsavoury bore the time of day.

    Just like the BBC the remain cause is certainly coalescing into a gruesome freak show with all of these concerned slebs and politicians using every trick in their poisonous little repertoires to preserve the globalist status quo that this bunch of self serving hypocrites and W#####s have spent decades building up.

    When I see this sort of shit and who supports them – It reminds me for sure, that in the long term we all made the right choice in the referendum. Both for our own futures and that of our kids.

            I remember back in the 1980s being despised by a girl at work because I said I thought the Live Aid single was shit and I would not be buying it. I then suggested she would be better off giving the money to a charity that at least knew what they were doing.

            She then said to me – But it is for the children………….!

            At which point I realised any more discussion was useless.

            And look at the way things are today for the sake of the “children” (especially the dead Aylen) We have let millions of military age males into Europe many of who think it is their right to sexually abuse any female they take a fancy to and act as if we owe them a living.

            But theres the rub – I said “we let in” actually we didnt let anyone in it was the Germans who did it under Merkels instruction. But now they expect the rest of Europe to take responsibility for her lack of responsibility.

            I think the expression is – you cant argue with shit! And it is as true today as it ever was.

    The BBC is not just biased in its reporting . In the Londonostan Programme we even see inverted racism. Awhile back they did a feature on gun crime in the capitol. They used a background picture of the back of white youths holding guns. This was obvious seeing their white hands.Today it was knife crime in schools. If you watch this programme you will know that nearly most of the time when they feature schools in London if you see more than three or four
    indigenous Caucasian kids they must of filmed in one of outer London suburbs, which happens very rarely.
    So what did we see tonight? The back of white kids going to school and a couple of white
    youths being stopped in the street.
    Maybe somebody can help me? Where does most of the gun crime and knife crime originate in
    London? So not only do we have a party political broadcast for the Labour Party every night now with Karl Mercer and the rest going on about the scheming Toreeesss in Harlow. But also this inverted racism. All that’s missing in the studio is a statue of Mark Duggan.

        To give a little context to the crime statistics in London:

        In 1950 there were 80 armed robberies in London (Metropolitan Police District) during the whole year. In 12 of these the weapon carried or used was a “sharp instrument”. That doesn’t mean that 12 people were stabbed to death while being robbed or even that 12 people were cut to some extent, but that in 12 robberies the victim or a witness said that the robber had a knife (or something similar).

        In the same year firearms were carried or used in 19 robberies, although by 1954 that figure had fallen to 4 cases in the year, while “sharp instruments” had risen to 15.

        Back then we had a very unenriched culture that somehow allowed us to have an unarmed police force.

        I don’t expect I will ever hear these statistics in a BBC programme.

    I don’t think al Beebus like Corbyn as leader of Liebour and they realize the election next month is irrevocably lost; they agree with what he stands for and promotes though but wish that it wasn’t him that was fronting the show.

    The scum at Broadcasting House want someone electable as Labour leader, someone who can obfuscate what Labour’s true intentions are and that is what Comrade Corbyn can’t do, he’s too transparent: remember his half hearted support for Remain in the referendum?

    The problem with al Beebus is that they just can’t help themselves, its innate, even though Corbyn and Labour are total cr@p they still end up supporting them; like a dog returning to its vomit.

      These days I am pretty much diametrically opposed to pretty much everything Corbyn stands for. But at the end of the the day you have to give the barmy old Trot a bit of credit for at least being a bit loyal to his mates and most of his principles (even if they do include the useless Fatbot).

        Carter – Both frightening and sobering that they feel that it is necessary to get organised just to defend their existing rights from these Soros funded invaders.

        Of course the snowflakes will point and say “See its the Hitler Youth again” But it was crooked politicians, media and globalists with the support of the snowflakes that have created the conditions where this has happened.

        I suspect Macrons obsession with putting the border back to our coast probably serves a dual purpose,

        1 It relieves a bit of domestic pressure – and will give him some political smarty points (forgetting that it will encourage even more invaders into France) And who in France doesnt love a bit of Brit bashing?
        2 By also swamping the UK with refugees it furthers the globalist strategy of replacing the indigenous culture and race with the new “Soros approved” versions.

        Macron probably knows that with the amount of snowflakes we have in the UK it will be very difficult for soft Tories like Theresa to properly protect our borders and deport these scumbags back to the 3rd world shitholes that they originated from. As to do this properly they would probably need a fair bit of force from the security forces that would certainly result in some deaths.

        Depressingly – Lets hope things kick off enough in France for even our protected snowflake generation to realise exactly what we could soon have to be dealing with here.

        I dont wish ill on France but they had their choice and voted for the globalist Macron. You pays your money and you takes your choice!

        Lets hope there is enough of a scrap of decency left in Theresa so that she does what we voted for and not what the establishment wants. Sometimes as Prime Minister you have to take hard decisions to protect your country – lets hope she has enough balls to do just that when the situation arises. One thing is for sure “Call me Dave” didnt!

            Nigel was stitched up in Thanet in the 2015 GE. I know a Labour voting resident in that constituency; she reported (proudly) that there was a huge organisation of tactical voting for “Anyone But Farage”.
            The investigation into irregularities in the count and expenses is still ongoing.
            I agree that UKIP is needed to keep Mrs May honest. However the UK’s FPTP system emasculates minor parties and UKIP’s 12% of the national vote realised no seats. Even with 15% I doubt UKIP would have had more than 2 or 3 MPs.
            The French presidential election is more akin to a referendum, especially the 2-horse run-off, where every vote counts. We need something similar.

              That’s very true RM. I too know several in Thanet who were lifelong Labour voters but voted for Nigel, and they confirmed that everyone ‘they knew’ were also voting UKIP, so were staggered that he lost out.

              The Thanet coastal resorts since their heyday of ‘summer visitors’ have been blighted since the late 60’s by cheap package holidays abroad, the decline of the area being aided by the benefit claimants – B & B’s were offered all year round finance from Councils eager to house the homeless, and then the nail in the coffin with Easter European migrants slipping in from Dover, also being housed in now run-down hotels and claiming their own ‘turf’ as no-go areas.

              Little wonder so many who were born in the area voted UKIP; so clearly huge discrepancies in the voting results.

            There is much truth in what you say Goat.

            Personally in the last few elections I have always voted UKIP.

            However the point that I was trying to make is that France before the election was pretty much drinking in the “last chance saloon” with regard to saving their culture.

            They also had a very professional and organised opposition in the form of The Front Nationale.

            After Bataclan and Nice I dont know how much more of a nudge they needed to vote for Le Pen and yet they still voted in Baby Soros.

            I agree that had UKIP done well in the last election we would have been in a stronger position and not going through all this current crap. But remember, none of us had seen the full extent of what the jihadis are capable of once they were in Europe.

            In addition the UKIP opposition has hardly itself been acting in a professional fashion with all the constant infighting. Why do you think Farage is no longer leading it? He left because there was too much opposition to his leadership style. People like to vote for a party that seems united and I am afraid that that UKIP have hardly been this.

            As for criticising the french for voting the way they did
            Because they had a perfectly good opposition in situ and because of what the Jihadis have done in France – I feel entirely justified in criticising them for missing what was probably their last chance to save their culture by voting for Le Pen.

            And I also feel totally justified criticising those in the UK who also voted Labour/liberal or Tory (where the tory candidate was pro remain)

            It is coming down to the bare bones now. As to whether our culture will survive or not. And if I think criticising those in another country (hypocritical as it may seem) will help to open the eyes of those in this country who still see the world through multy culty spectacles – Then surely it is justified.

          “I suspect Macrons obsession with putting the border back to our coast probably serves a dual purpose”

          Having ‘borders’ in another country is not uncommon. It is used when the gateway to the other country is via a transport link. So for instance flying between Montreal, Canada, and New York, USA one can clear US Immigration controls in Montreal. That benefits the link provider, airline or ferry operator, as they then don’t run the risk of having to return passengers rejected at the other end of the journey. It also benefits the traveller as they can get through the formalities in the normally wasted time before getting on the plane or ferry.

          It is win-win for everyone, even the ‘host’ country. In the case of France-UK moving the UK ‘border’ back to the UK might allow the French to export their unhappy campers but they would then be rejected and shipped back, much to the annoyance of the ferry operator. The result of that would be that the ferry operators would be even more careful about who got on their boats, so effectively moving the UK ‘border’ back to France!

          The so-called threat is just for French local consumption and Brit-bashing by ‘our’ BBC. It won’t happen, it suits everyone too well.

          I’m all for helping refugees who are escaping persecution and allowing them into the country. I also think Cameron got it right when he concentrated on assisting war refugees in countries closer to their home so they can return once the war is over. These are two completely different types of refugee but both must be treated with compassion but in completely different ways.

          However, if the French decide to send us all their invaders, we must stop everybody getting off the boats until they are verified as genuine (including our own nationals). It will cause chaos but the boats will have to take the invaders back to France. The boat companies will eventually stop them getting onto the boats in the first place. Airlines must be obligated to stop all immigrants with no genuine refugee status from disembarking at British airports, or face crippling fines. They should then be banned from flying into this country if they get caught twice. All would-be immigrants here illegally should be sent back from whence they came. It’s hard but it must be done to slow down the ultimate evisceration of our culture. Why the left support their cultures but want to destroy ours is incomprehensible.

            The problem is, there is a huge criminal industry in fake documentation. Immigration officers are the experts in spotting the fakes, we can’t expect airline, shipping and Eurotunnel/Eurostar employees to know the difference.

            One article I read about Syria said that when ISIS captured a town, they would steal all the blank passports and identity documents from the local government offices. German police also intercepted a delivery from Bulgaria of thousands of fake Syrian passports.

            The British are also stymied by the convention on refugees – they are not allowed to send them back to a country where they would not be safe, and they cannot send them back when they have no documentation if the ‘refugee’ refuses to tell them which country they came from originally. I’ve read reports that migrants are advised – probably by snowflake volunteers – to get rid of their identity documents for this reason.

    BBC sends another half-a-billion to France…
    The BBC has no shame when it comes to promoting its own programmes on its TV channels, radio stations and website. But it prefers to de-emphasise or not mention its business activities and inner workings. For instance, it is reported – not by itself, of course – that it has signed a £560 million IT contract with French-based company, Atos (see http://www.theregister.co.uk/2017/05/12/beeb_hands_deal_hands_560m_it_deal_to_atos_again/).
    Readers with a keen memory will recall the involvement of Atos in the Work Capability Assessment programme for the Department for Work and Pensions. According to Wikipedia: “In August 2015, statistics from the Department of Work and Pensions revealed that 2,380 people had died between 2011 – 2014 soon after being found fit for work through disability benefit assessments. In 2014, “the DWP negotiated an early exit from the existing WCA contract with the private firm, Atos, after raising concerns about the quality of its work”.
    Also noteworthy is this: “It was disclosed in November 2013 through the National Audit Office that Atos had paid no corporation tax at all in the UK in 2012.The total value of contracts that had been awarded to Atos by June 2013 was approximately £1.6bn”. Odd. The BBC normally takes such a high moral position on large corporations that do not pay sufficient corporation tax e.g. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-34504474 and http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-39456662 and http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-20560359. And I wonder if they’ve told Comrade Corbyn, as Labour are hoping to use this money for education? see http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/uk-politics-39880134/can-corporation-tax-cover-education-pledge

    I am sure the BBC recognise that the Conservatives will win the General Election (fingers crossed) by a considerable margin. Their mission is clearly to reduce the size of the majority by as much as they can. All I see on the news is uncritical coverage of Labour’s campaign. They don’t necessarily endorse Corbyn but neither do they analyse his policies, particularly in regard to costs. Andrew Neil, as usual, is a standout exception.

    There is continual reference to the dangers of TM being handed a landslide majority (160, perhaps) as this would be giving her too much power and too little accountability, especially with the Brexit negotiations. Can anyone remember them showing so much concern over Blair’s 179 majority in 1997? Fortunately TB didn’t abuse his position at all, did he?

      Mrs May will gain her majority, although it may not quite be the landslide that some people are expecting. However, Comrade Corbyn is clearly toast. Proven to be unelectable, the Labour Party may split, much as it did in the early 1980s, when the Social Democratic Party (SDP) was formed. Do not be surprised if the new party is modelled along the lines of the French En Marche!, with Anthony Blair as his leading light (he’s been testing the waters, allegedly). It will portray itself as centrist and moderate, but will be fanatically pro-EU. Some Conservatives will join it – the ones who leave puddles behind as they walk. The BBC will push it to the hilt.

        Think you could be right about a split and the creation of a British style En Marche!

        But Blair is toxic now as far as the electorate are concerned. Any Party that incorporated him – as an active member or merely a background figurehead – could kiss goodbye to most of the traditional Labour votes. Although some Tories might join, again I am not certain that they would attract a lot of voters away from the Conservative Party in the end.

        It would cement a quantity of power in the hands of Corbyn or a later equiavlent, too. It would also probably drive more Labour people to the LibDems just as Tim Farron appears to be rolling away from total ‘Cleggism’.

      Bob, I can. Guess where it came from? Not much from the BBC, although I recall there were a few passing, very quick, references to it before they got back to hitting the champagne.

      It came from inside the Labour Party.

      The Labour Party AND the BBC love to describe the Conservatives as the divided Party. The Conservatives themselves always admit to being a ‘broad church’, of a variety of beliefs and opinions but always out for the best for the whole United Kingdom. If you love and want diversity in life, you could do no better than choose the Conservative Party. Or the Liberals, but don’t let’s go there now.

      Labour to me, in reality, is the truly divided Party. I see three areas of power within it and they are fairly clearly and concretely defined: the traditional Socialist group that contain the varieties of all on the Left, the ‘champagne socialists’ who are out for no-one but themselves, for power, their interest group and ‘the cause’ (the cause often best defined as attacking anything the Tories do) as long as it doesn’t disadvantage them and, finally, those who are totally subservient to their Trade Union masters under a sham of democracy.

      Labour MPs and Party members may fit in one or more groups and even flit between them. As an example of that, I would hold up Hilary Benn or Dianne Abbott or any of ‘Blair’s babes’.

      There are some very genuine, even outstanding, MPs in the Labour Party who look out – above all else – for representing the interests of their constituents.

      But I do recall those on the ‘harder’ reaches of the Left expressed concern, after Blair’s big wins, about the size of the Labour majority. Why? The champagne socialists were in charge and with a large Parliamentary majority, a dissenting group, whether genuine or not, have very little power. They need the size of the dog reduced so the tail can wag it.

      UKIP too has had more publicity that it ever had before the 2017 council elections – could it be that the BBC is aiming to split the ‘right of centre’ vote.

      And if the Today programme once more before the election heads its News headlines with ‘Labour will…..’ (usually spend far more money that it thinks it will cost) I will throw the radio out of the window.

    So the BBC wants to tell us that Muslim men are unfairly labelled . Well if I were a member of a mass religious cult that was responsible for the majority of the worlds terrorism . encouraged first cousin marriages , covered its women in back cloth , executed gays, couldn’t produce a single example of a democracy, explained why large swathes of the world are economic failures, refused to integrate even when living in the West etc etc then I’d expect to be labelled too.

I’m sure that over 90% of those attendees will have been given their tickets for free in order to make women’s football appear far more popular than it really is. It’s yet more propaganda.

It’s Brexit, of course!! This seems to ignore the fact that our drab and tuneless entries have failed to harvest much more than the odd point from our European neighbours for the best part of the last twenty years, back in the days, presumably, when we were a much-loved and respected member of the EC.

      Before we joined the EU, we won or came second in the Eurovision Song Contest, in ten out of fifteen entries: 66%
      After joining the EU we won or came second in ten out of 44 entries, the last one being in 1998: 23%
      A massive 43% deterioration in performance due to EU membership.

      And comparing our performance in the 20th Century with our performance in the 21st Century is even worse.
      In the 20th Century we only failed to get into the top 10 on three occasions, the worst being 13th in 1987. But in the 21st Century we only succeeded in beating that 13th position on three occasions. In fact we have been lower than 13th position on 15 occasions this Century.

      So Britain going higher than 13th position will mark a successful “Brexit Bounce vote” from those young people in Europe who have hope for a future of freedom and democracy for Europe, especially from those nations who are already free from the EU.

    Tommy Robinson’s real crime of course is to be drawing attention to one of the the biggest scandals in our history, which al beebistan and much of the msm are desperate to cover up, namely the staggering, shocking, revolting, obscene scale of muslim paedophile rape gangs across the land, involving hundreds and thousands of victims and perpetrators.

    I repeat, pakistani, muslim, paedophile, rape gangs, NOT ‘Asian’ ‘sex gangs’ as the duplicitous, mendacious, evil beebistan would like to call them on those rare occasions when they are forced to report them, usually invisibly tucked away in ‘Regions’.

    I note they’re not reporting Robinson’s arrest, all part of the same cover-up.

    P.S. If I were Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Indian or any other civilised Asian, I’d be highly offended at the racial slur in ‘Asian Sex Gangs’ by the vile, racist al-bibeera. Could they be prosecuted for racism? Wouldn’t that be delicioius?

              The Saudi cables … dated January and February 2013, were translated separately by the Australian and UN Watch. One read:
              “The delegation is honoured to send to the ministry the enclosed memorandum, which the delegation has received from the permanent mission of the United Kingdom asking it for the support and backing of the candidacy of their country to the membership of the human rights council (HRC) for the period 2014-2016, in the elections that will take place in 2013 in the city of New York.

              “The ministry might find it an opportunity to exchange support with the United Kingdom, where the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia would support the candidacy of the United Kingdom to the membership of the council for the period 2014-2015 in exchange for the support of the United Kingdom to the candidacy of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.”

        I dont know about Competitive Compassion” I think “Competitive Stupidity” is more accurate.

        As for why they do it and why they are so out of touch – I think most of these tossers once they get a boot up onto the political ladder are all dead keen to get on in politics so they only ever really mix with other politicians who can help their careers.

        It then becomes a bit like the emperors clothes. In order to get on they have to abandon what little common sense they may once have had and have to embrace the groupthink instead. If as a result of this our culture is destroyed – so be it.

        I will never forget one of the 2015 general election debates where I think migration had figured quite prominently. At the end the Green’s Natalie Bennett, Plaid Cymru’s Leanne Wood and Nicola Sturgeon of the SNP all had a little group hug – with Millband looking on like a stuffed Pr##k.
        Obviously they were all united in their naive belief that there should be absolutely no limits whatsoever to migration. The only person who came out with any dignity was Nigel Farage who is used to being the outsider and saying the truth rather than conforming to the social pressure.

        It is interesting that the predictions of the most vilified man in mainstream politics has been right almost every time on the question of migration. Yet still they hate him.

    For 2 hrs.30 minutes I was amongst an audience that were 98% white, a cast that was 99.5% white (a couple of mixed race girls), and all was well with the world, I thought I was in a time zone of 40 years ago. In fact I was in a theatre watching 42nd Street (a super sensational and highly recommended Mother of all musicals – if you love tap dancing).

    Then it was back to reality, into the melting pot which our capital now is. Strangely the only white indigenous were those pouring out of the matinees. Apart from us ‘oldies’ emerging into the daylight, no-one in London appeared to be over 50 !

But in case you think the prommers racist, they used to adore Jesseye Norman and really didn’t care what colour she was. But the Bollywood Prom, David Bowie Prom or Dr Who proms are gimmicks and the socialist elite who run the BBC would not be seen dead attending these proms.

I’ve come close to putting pen to paper several times over the years but never quite got around to it, usually as one of you had made the point before me, however this time myself, LadyLasslo & LittleLasslo are united on our intent. The license fee is being withheld! Why I hear you ask, not because of a massive bias-bit on the scale of things we cover on this site, but the steady accumulation of bias-bits over the years culminating in the Master Chef final last Friday. Not an obvious setup by the corporation, the winner was a good cook & seemed a nice woman, BUT not the best on the show. The sheer inevitability as it slowly unfolded reaching its predefined conclusion, left me thinking why? To prove in a timely pre-election fashion that multi-culti is best, to create Nadia2 or simply to tick as many boxes as possible on their PC bingo cards.
    Anyway, I shall trawl the archive and dig out the info on removing myself from their financial clutches.

I’m waiting to see the BBC’s choice, they being the official opposition to ‘this Tory Government’, but they can’t reveal their hand until after 8 June. I’m going for Yvette Balls or Chukka Umuna, but you can’t rule out Owen Jones or Ginna Miller!

          Also Maxi do you think the perpetrators should be described as “asian” or “Pakistani muslims”?
