    5pm news on R4 Lady Nugee being interviewed about the manifesto. Another popcorn car crash job.

    Credit where it’s due. No bias in this interview. Lady Nugee was, I believe , a barrister in real life before becoming a politician . Lawyers are paid to learn their brief and then defend it or prove it.

    The interview became more like mastermind where the specialty subject was Labour Manifesto . She more or less said ” pass” to so many questions I lost count .

    I am no labour supporter but do expect any politician to give a decent account – even lies when taking part in the democratic process . Apols for my naivety .

    I can only think that labour MPs are so busy positioning for post Corbyn that they arnt even learning their manifesto .

      Update ( not directly albeeb )
      Lady Nugee – looking fairly fedup went on to do what I suppose she thought would be a nice warm interview on c4 news. However the lady journo started to ask questions involving numbers and costings and Nugee tried to talk about conservatives .
      Think the collective morale failure of HM opposition is becoming a bit too public with 3 weeks to go.

    “For the many, not the few!”

    So the old white British men, ‘normal’ people with a ‘sex’, non-Muslims, Brexiteers etc. etc. should vote Labour?

    Have a chuckle ………..

    The seven dwarfs always left to go to work in the mine early each morning.
    As always, Snow White stayed home doing her domestic chores.
    As lunchtime approached, she would prepare their lunch and carry it to the mine.

    One day as she arrived at the mine with the lunch,

    she saw that there had been a terrible cave-in.

    Tearfully, and fearing the worst, Snow White began calling out, hoping against hope that the dwarfs had somehow survived.

    ‘Hello…Hello !’ she shouted. ‘Can anyone hear me? Hello !’
    For a long while, there was no answer. Losing hope, Snow White again shouted, ‘Hello! Is anyone down there?’

    Just as she was about to give up all hope, she heard a faint voice from deep within the mine,

    “VOTE FOR CORBYN ”

    Snow White fell to her knees and prayed,

    ‘Oh, thank you, God!

    …At least Dopey is still alive !’

    Biased BBC launch the Labour Party manifesto on the 6pm news live from ……errrr……….Bradford.
    Featuring one of thise walls with clocks in different time zones.
    New York? Paris? Tokyo?
    Nope. Try India, Pakistan, and Bangla Desh.
    Followed by interviews with errr, shall we say non-white people wearing things on their heads.
    Enough said.

    Later they interview a guy from the Institute for Public Policy Research. Without mentioning that it is not independent but a left wing think tank.

    But maybe, just maybe, people will see this propaganda for what it is. Multi culti left wing total bollocks.
    And all from our impartial state broadcaster.

As the Ministry of Truth, they helped create the environment where the social workers could not say what they were seeing, the heresy of heresies being common sense.

                    Trump ‘asked FBI to drop inquiry’

                    Donald Trump’s problems over alleged links between his ex-national security adviser, Michael Flynn, and Russia have got worse. US media report that the president asked former FBI director James Comey to end an inquiry into the subject.

                    Mr Comey is the man Mr Trump sacked last week. “I hope you can let this go,” Mr Trump reportedly told him after a White House meeting in February, the day after Mr Flynn resigned. But the White House denies the report.

                    So, how bad is this for Mr Trump? Senior fellow Republican John McCain has reportedly said this is now a scandal of “Watergate size and scale”. But, says BBC Washington reporter Anthony Zurcher, Mr McCain is something of a “wild card” in the party.

      Robert really needs to dial down the virtue signalling emotional outpourings and just call them for what they are – illegal economic migrants.

      Please god don’t let us get like the USA where undocumented (aka illegal) becomes some kind of Robin Hood-esqe badge of hardworking, slip through the cracks, nobility.

      There are proper processes and channels for coming into this country, which many other people manage to follow, so if you don’t do this you aren’t “desperate” and your story isn’t “tragic”. You’re just a queue jumping, rule breaking criminal and if you first foray into this country is breaking the law that’s not setting a great precedent for the kind of UK citizen that we would like here.

    I think the word that comes to mind might be … erm obscurantism

    No charges brought after allegations woman was raped in Sunderland
    “The region’s top lawyer has explained why no charges were brought after allegations a woman was raped in Sunderland. Six men were arrested by police after reports that a 26-year-old woman had been attacked at an address in Peel Street overnight between Saturday, September 3 and Sunday, September 4, last year.
    However, the Crown Prosecution Service took the decision there was “insufficient evidence” to proceed with the case.
    Demonstrations have been held in Sunderland City Centre in support of the woman. Today, John Dilworth, acting Chief Crown Prosecutor for CPS North East, explained why no charges had been brought – and also addressed “damaging claims” and “inaccurate articles” that had been written about the incident, primarily on social media”.

      Never mind the sex crime, feel the “community cohesion”.

      The police themselves, in such circumstances, become a problem to society.

      They are part of what the late Sam Francis called the “Anarcho-tyranny”: whereby they allow the Left (ANTIFA, Hope Not Hate etc) to demonstrate, riot and provoke with apparent impunity; but target and arrest anyone from the “Far-Right” who look like they might even begin to push back against the destruction of our culture and society.

          There is a difference between doing your job and doing what you are told to do. It seems the Sunderland cops are doing the latter.

          The article in the Sunderland local paper was pure waffle. But it lays a foundation for the Government backed UAF to prepare against further attempts to obtain justice for this victim.

        One girl seems to have been coerced to acting as a procurer/madam and paid.

        Social workers then really screwed up by saying to the pregnant girls parents that she is a prostitute, cos they fail to recognise a child is being abused.

He was asked if he was worried that not having to display the disc would lead to a rise in untaxed vehicles. He said he wasn’t worried, because his inspectors would be visiting every street in the country at least twice, to check for unlicensed vehicles. I thought, aye, I bet I could name more than a few postcodes that wouldn’t get any such visits! Probably the same post codes that never see a detector van or get a knock on the door either!

My personal choice not to watch this series had noting to do with blood pressure or anything similar, it had all to do with not wanting the BBC to abuse my intelligence again. If anyone that watched the first of the series could tell me here and now that the BBC identified the perpetrators as muslim men simply following their cult beliefs and they were following the similar behaviour of Mohammed and that all convicted will be immediately shipped back to their familial country of origin I may watch the two remaining programmes in the knowledge that the BBC is now applying honest and balanced journalism.

    Saw a piece from Alastair Campbell in todays Guardian. He compares Labour voters who won`t vote for Corbyn(who he doubtless hates) as being akin to a New Staesman hack who now supports Arsenal instead of Man United. He gives Farron his due in saying that only scum would swap allegance from Blackburn to Burnley too.
    This stale male pastiche of football tribal loyalty being “life and death”-and anybody who votes Labour needs to know that this tribal unthinking idiocy is like stupid soccer clubs being supported-just about sumes up the empty reflex zombie death cult that is progressive politics.
    Indeed in any sane world-it would be a sectioning issue re mental health. But we talk here of sociopaths like Campbell…in the Guardian…stabbing a Staggers hack in the back…being all footy-savvy…so mental health is not discussed. But it ought to be. Campbell is the embodiment of dysfunction in political life.

    I see Newsshite was again promoting the message that Brexit voters are all thick geordies and remainers highly intelligent, open-minded products of our glorious university system.
    You’ve really got to hand it to Blair – not only did he succeed in “rubbing the noses of the right in diversity” in a big way, but also, by increasing the number of young people going to university, exposed more and more gullible minds to the waffle of loony, leftwing academics. Listening to Durham students on Neswshite reminded me of the drivel I used to hear from comsomol types in the USSR.They were always giving their utmost to built socialism and international peace. The British comsomol want multiculturalism and an open society. It’s all very depressing.

        A Roman politician who wanted to be succesful had to amass a vast personal fortune to offer advancement to his clients and bribes to the plebs. Modern politicians simply steal other people’s current earnings and future earnings and wealth to use as bribes. The Labour party’s clients are, of course, the workshy who get cash and the whole of the public sector and immigrants who get political preferrence and cash. You can always borrow cash to use as bribes. You often hear students on the media complaining that they are burdened by debts of £30,000, how it affects their mortgage prospects and credit ratings, etc. In the same breath, they advocate no tuition fees, as if increased government debt would not have the same consequences on a grander scale.

    One of the tiresome features of the ‘Comment Is Free’ section of the BBC’s print arm is a poster called ‘TheGreatRonRafferty’. He’s invariably one of the first to comment on almost any article on politics and education.

    And well to the left of centre, more or often than not he’s predictably, comically wrong. But credit where it’s due. Below an article on the drama Three Girls tonight, he’s written the following:

    I used to post on the BBC Today programme MB until it was closed down in 2009. On there was a poster who lived in ‘a northern town’ who VERY frequently referred to exactly what was going on, where, how. The BBC moderators wiped every post he put up about it. Instead of the message being passed on to investigators at the BBC, they were part of the ‘ignoring it’ problem. You can see how those victims of such abuse felt betrayed by everyone.

    *Yes, I know the poster should have passed his/her comments to the police or social services. Maybe he/she did and was turned away?

    My emphasis. When you think about it, £3.7bn p.a. really is a bargain when it both keeps the BBC’s celebrities in the institutional paedophilia to which they’re accustomed and pays for the suppression of the reporting of common-or-garden community paedophilia as well. And has done for years.

    Bit weird.
    Just heard on the news that the parents of Yvonne Fletcher (policewoman gunned down in 1984)were disappointed that her murderer would not be charged due to the evidence given could be a threat to national security, and there was insufficient other evidence to prosecute.

    This evening I watched a conspiracy thriller on More 4 – Closed Circuit, that dealt with a similar problem involving MI5 and closed court session, hearing evidence that could affect national security. I hope Yvonne Fletcher’s parents didn’t watch it as they could be forgiven for believing that there was a massive cover up in the prosecution of their daughter’s murderer.

    The BBC’s post-Jeff Randall business journalism is widely recognised as a howling joke, but the dear old World Service continues to heave and strain to make the joke ever funnier.

    No, in the judgement of whichever superannuated student politician has been lumbered with the job of editing this career-ending programme, tonight’s most important news for the world of business is… the never-ending campaign of the far Left to have Donald Trump impeached.

    According to al beebistan, the more ‘educated’ are more likely to be of a leftie-liberal disposition in their voting. (In other words only stupid riffraff vote for Brexit / Trump / Le Pen / May, the clever sophisticated cosmopolitan metrosexual ones – like us at the beeb – all vote left.)
    But Prof Goodwin is baffled as to why, and comes up with various psycho-sociological explanations. Here’s my suggestion, that doesn’t seem to have occurred to the good (and no-doubt well-paid) Prof: BECAUSE OUR SO-CALLED UNIVERSITIES HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER BY THE CULTUERAL MARXIST LIBERAL LEFT AND ARE NOW ONE HUGE BRAIN-WASHING FACTORY FOR SNOWFLAKES WHO SWOON AT A CONTRARY OPINION!

    “And whether someone has a degree or not is now a key marker of how somebody might vote. But why?
    “We’re not entirely sure – but what is clear is education does have a really strong effect on making people more predisposed to liberal political outlooks,” says Prof Goodwin.
    “Some say the more liberally-minded self-select into education… Others say it’s the socialisation experience people have at university. They socialise with other liberals and it further develops.”
    YouGov polling at the start of the general election campaign suggests 53% of people with no qualifications plan to vote Conservative, 17% UKIP, 18% Labour and 5% Liberal Democrat.”

      There was a strange interview with Prof. Lisa Randal, theoretical physicist extraordinaire (elsewhere, she has said so herself and that’s not arrogance) on the Today programme R4 this morning. The pretext was her book about dinosaur extinction and dark matter??!!. Hardly new, as the book was published in 2015. Towards the end of the interview the focus suddenly turned to “science denial” in the USA.
      What was that all about?

      In the Prospect magazine 17/5/17 she says:

      “We would also see a lot more scientists, or at least smart people (defined below) in positions of power. Angela Merkel, who studied physical chemistry, has done a pretty good job, despite her current trouble. I do see room for a more rational approach to governance. Clearly these examples show that science training alone is not enough. Scientists don’t know everything, and technologists don’t either. But there is something to be said for knowing what it means to address a problem, or even how to define it. And to know how to recognise the potential limitations of any proposed solution. Most big problems aren’t solved overnight, and scientists know that all too well. The breakthroughs that have changed our lives often derive from these slow-cooked, then flame-broiled discoveries.

      Smart people are the ones who factor in long-term goals and who aren’t afraid to admit they are wrong in the face of contradictory evidence. This sometimes includes scientists but it rarely includes politicians. I will need to have quite a lot of global power to get this done.”

      Seems to be a variation on the “general public are too thick to choose how to lead their own lives” theme. The idea that the “uneducated classes” were outbreeding the educated lead to the eugenics movement in the 19th century and its widespread acceptance in the early 20th century. The main proponents for selective breeding of humans were of course all those ever so rational scientists. This is just a rehashing of Plato’s notion of philosopher kings or tyrants advised by philosophers. What happens if I am too stupid to follow Randal’s cunning plans? Mental hospital, prison, death camp?

    Just watched lanky Dan let loose from the breakfast sofa, interviewing some voters in Bristol. Two remainers, one ex remainer who now just wants democracy to be implemented, and one Tory who I presume voted leave although it wasn’t made clear.

    The remainers got a lot longer to ramble on, but one thing struck me, as with all remainers, the two interviewed today, were over emotional, thin skinned and couldn’t actually explain why they think we should remain in the EU. It was all emotive guff such as having Italian friends, or “my son lives in Denmark, if they come for my passport , well I’m too old to take physical action, but….erm blah blah blah”

    They say leavers didn’t know what they were voting for, but the remainers seem to be operating purely on emotion and anger that they didn’t get their own way, a bunch of childish loons the lot of them. Still doesnt stop the beeb and others giving them disproportionate airtime to ramble on, and it is amusing to see their lips wobble when anyone points a camera at them.

    So keep it up beeb.

    Horizon: Strange Signals from Outer Space!
    This Contains spoilers.
    Sounded quite interesting so I thought, let’s give it a go. Shown in the UK last night (16th May). It bumbled along for about half an hour with padding and fillers (containing a repeated section of footage shot from a drone as it drifts across rooftops). Anyway, about 30 minutes in the scientists are scratching their heads dumbfounded that they have received no signals from distant lifeforms. At this point the wheel on another scientist to explain why… Climate change on distant planets may have wiped out the intelligent lifeforms – hence no radio broadcasts. Groan…..here we effin go… I mean, seriously… the producers obviously realizing that they didn’t really have much in the tank to fill an hour decided to fill the remaining 30 minutes with what energy sources an intelligent life form may consider. Oh, and this will make you chuckle: This included, what must have been a Star Wars inspired death star kinda thing that harnesses the energy of the star the planet orbits…
    An absolute insult to the viewer and a complete and utter waste of time.
    Sick and bloody tired of the BBBC. Their nonsense infects everything they touch.

        There was a priceless moment on bbc breakfast this morning. The bbc breakfast ‘election roadshow’ was in Bristol. Steff the Geordie lass gave Carol the weather girl (or person, or transgender or pan-sexual, it’s her anyway) a plate of bacon butties (or probably halal meat of some kind). Later Steff spotted Carol without the plate and suggested Carol had ‘found someone to hold her baps’ It was an ooohh matron moment but unfortunately nobody on the team ‘got it’ due to the mandatory sense of humour bypass all bbc employees have to undergo as part of the marxist contract.

          I’m not sure if it’s true or if it’s an urban myth, but that reminds me of the story about TV chefs Fanny and Johnnie Craddock. Fanny had just done a demonsration of how to make ring doughnuts, and after she had finished Johnny turned to the camera and said “And I hope all your doughnuts turn out like Fanny’s”!

      I think there’s an unintentional hint about Horizon in the “!” after the program title.

      I was curious as to what they’d lashed up – Charna – thank you.

      I’d ask if there were any images of either a windmill or a solar farm? No Horizon I’ve seen recently manages to swerve that. So… this one is in super widescreen mega-cine format with a lush score – high production values etc… yawn…

      The B-Ark team really rule the PopSci roost at the state broadcaster these days. I see that Tomorrow’s World is getting resuscitated (with a predictable team) – will the presenters be made to wear a prosthetic bolt through their necks?

      Imagine a transmitter on the nearest star transmitting in all directions. Imagine a sphere surrounding that transmitter, all of the transmitted energy passes through that sphere and we assume that the energy is spread out evenly. Move further away and the sphere gets bigger but the energy is still the same but spread out more.
      A satellite in Earth orbit can only broadcast to about a third of the Earth’s surface. How does this area compare to the surface area of the sphere surrounding our nearest neighbour that passes through the earth?
      Well it is about 10 to the power 20 smaller or
      0.00000000000000000001 i.e. pretty small so it is way beyond our capability of detecting signals from ‘outer space’ unless they know where we are and choose to beam very high-powered signals in our direction.

      Of course we could ‘solve’ global warming by collecting up all the excess heat, converting it to radio waves and blasting at Alpha Centauri! Let’s just hope they don’t respond!

      It’s amazing. The liberal intelligentsia keep berating us that we are all the same and everyone should be accepted and their differences not highlighted but then actively pursue ways to highlight their differences.

        The BBC likes it both ways – we are so well-integrated, apparently, and such a beacon of multicultural tolerance in the world, and yet these ethnic minorities still have their own self-interest to look after in an election. Like voting Labour or Lib Dem or whichever will open our borders the quickest to let more of their compatriots and fellow-monoculturalists in.

    I gave up watching VD’s show months after it began. The programme content is just a continual reporting catalogue of abuse, illness, human rights, addictions, race relations and other wrist slitting stuff etc. I’m not at my best in the mornings, but a couple of hours of listening to the woes of the world really does NOT set me up for the day. (equally I don’t watch the pap magazine type programmes of the other channels either). So I’m just left with the news channel on the continual loop !

    Here is todays Hijab news
    ‘I had to choose between my faith and the sport I loved’
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/av/world-us-canada-39930333/i-had-to-choose-between-my-faith-and-the-sport-i-loved

    A USA Muslim girl was about to become a professional basketball player but a ban on hijab wearing made her choose faith instead of the sport. The Hijab rule has now been removed.

    Now this could have been an OK story for the BBC apart from the photos they show in the video at 0m36s and 0m39s show her NOT wearing a hijab.

    So has she checked the rules first, seen that hijabs are banned then decides to wear one?

    Personally I’m not convinced at all by this BBC crap. Watching her play basketball looks more like netball and I very much doubt she is anywhere near professional level.

I would gravitate towards them and ask if they were Musiim. When they replied yes, I would then hit them with:

    Couldn t find this on the Al BBC news pages,
    I m shocked, SHOCKED! I tell you

    A new report from the London Borough of Redbridge has revealed almost one in five of all child deaths in the area since 2008 were down to their parents being close relatives. The shocking statistic was discussed at a meeting of the Redbridge Council Health and Well-being Board on Monday, with the matter of child fatality being raised.
    The council’s report found between 2008 and 2016, 19 per cent of child deaths in the borough were caused by infants being born to “consanguineous relationships” — marriage or otherwise sexual relations between couples who are first cousins or closer. The recording year of 2009-10 saw the highest number of child deaths in the period. Of all deaths in that year, the second greatest cause was “chromosomal, genetic or congenital abnormalities”.

Without wishing to make capital out of his death, I wonder if his parents are related?

    The bBC reports on the mass jail break from a Congo prison:

    Untitled-1.jpg

    Christian? Here is how the leader of that so called Christian faith explains the background to his movement as per his website:
    The Bukongo teaches that in prehistoric times, Space beings, called the Bana ba Zulu, the Sons of Heaven, from the luminous Planet Kakongo (Sirius) came to earth where they disembarked on the Ethiopian Plateau. In Etiopi (Ethiopia), the Sons of Heaven mixed their blood, by marriage, with the Bana ba Ntoto bana ba Tami from India, giving rise to a new people (evolution) called the Bena Kongo, the children of Ne Kongo Nimi, the Bakongo, the Kongo. Kikongo is the National Language of Kongo, this language derives from the ancient language spoken by the Sons of Heaven, from Kakongo it is from the Kakongo Planet. BuKongo teaches that there will come, at the forecast by the Lord, the future King of The Ntimansi Union of Central Africa to free Kongo and Africa. Also all people of African descendant world-wide: mentally, spiritually, religiously, politically and other. Slavery imposed by Europe, Eurasia and also by the Arabs, .reorganised in accordance with the plan of the Archangel AKongo, the birth of new civilizatio,n new Era tandu kia Kinati Masa. It is the coming of the Great MANI KONGO, who will come from heaven, from Space. We have therefore, the Kongo, Bakongo and Kikongo Trinity. The Bakongo (Kongo) being the people whose language is Kikongo, and their country Kongo, Kakongo the planet….Kongo Nimi

    The Great Archangel Muanda Kongo made an alliance with Nimi due to his rightousness. He told Nimi that from today your name has became Kongo Nimi. Through you`re linage will come forth 3 children who will be the incarnation of the 3 attributes of a Divine nature.

    KONGO Nimi married Mama Ngunu who later give birth to Nsaku, Mpanzu and Nzinga – the source of Egypts civilization.
    Nsaku represents the colour Blue. Incarnate Spirituality-Kinzambi (Divine Love). Zola. The cohesion of civilization.
    Mpanzu represents Yellow. Incarnate Knowledge, Scientific and Technica, Kimazayu (Divine Intelligence), Ngangu. The knowledge to build and make the physical body comfortable.
    Nzinga represents Red. Incarnate Power-Kimayala (Divine power – order- politic Capacity) Lendo. The ability to govern.

    You’d think the bBC reporter who wrote that headline would have done a little background check on that so called Christian cult leader.
