“Scottish Television has aired a programme about the racist murder of white schoolboy Kriss Donald — a day after a black transgender model ranted “all white people benefit from racism” on the BBC.
The Science of Murder episode ‘Killers on the Run’, which aired on Channel 3, recounted the case of Kriss Donald, a 15-year-old white schoolboy whose brutal killing at the hands of a Pakistani gang led to Scotland’s first ever racially-motivated murder trial.”
As the BBC is a public service broadcaster this should have been on BBC1 or BBC2 for a national audience, but then, it doesn’t fit the agenda.
But such murders are ten a penny in Pakistan and we MUST accustom ourselves to such things. The bbc is using our money to help us in that regard.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
Very much worth a read for people on this site, and as per usual John Rawls gets it entirely wrong yet again !
We are FAR TOO TOLERANT. We invite trouble by indulging those who hate us.
Anyhow, were they actually singing, ‘Rule Britannia’ while waving Euro flags?
If so, maybe they were being ironic?
Just seen weatherman Tomasz Schafernaker on BBC News, standing in a car park in Tampa Bay, informing us of the dangers of high winds in a hurricane. None of the trees behind him appeared to be moving an inch.
Why does he need to be there ? state of the art technology that gives us video conferencing and conversations with astronauts in space, yet we fly a weatherman across the Atlantic to tell us its windy. Unbelievable.
They report from locations even on the radio! Money to burn.
But Sopel, Bicker, Gordon, the Fat blind one, Katty Kunt, James Cook, Trevelyan, Ghattas, Dymond, Plett-Usher, Bryant, Willis, Brook, O’brien, etc, etc are all in the US already. I’m sure I’ve missed a few as well.
BBC2 at the moment – Great North Run Highlights. Excellent. Oh, what’s this? The presenter/producer has managed to find a couple who, after last year’s run in which they competed (I think that was the story), one of them got down on one knee after they finished the run together and proposed! Ahh, sweet. And, they are getting married this year! They will, of course, as this is the Beeb, become Mrs and Mrs. Relentless.
The Sunday Times (pay-walled) reports that Diane Abbott, the shadow home secretary, has described suffering racist abuse “over and over again” both online and offline. “I’ve had people tweeting that I should be hung if ‘they could find a tree big enough to take the fat bitch’s weight’.”
How can that be racist abuse? – I can’t see a single reference to race in that honest and fair statement.
Perhaps its the fact that the tree is taking the ‘brunt’ of the abuse 🙂
BBC Andrew Marr … Julia Hartley-brewer … Blair didn’t ask country about immigration … Cameron tried to negotiate with EU with no luck … Blair’s institute probably funded by kazikstanies…interesting …
So the BBC thinks that it is amusing to post a picture of two Americans finding the hurricane
in Florida FUNNY!! Left hand side of leader page of website. ” Hurricane Irma hits Florida”
Whoever thought that this was “fun” should be SACKED from the BBC forthwith.. And
Don’t care if the got their job through positive discrimination or diversity!!!
Further to my previous comment. Can you imagine in a million years the BBC editors and
moderators allowing a picture of an ethnic couple finding the hurricane amusing?
Foscari,
The US media seems to be getting desperate because Irma, bad as it is for Floridians, isn’t living up to their expectations. They aren’t giving up though as you can see in this live coverage stream:
The comments in the live chat stream to the right of the screen are hilarious.
EuroNews … Giant baby peers over US-Mexico border … but why doesn’t baby want to peer into Mexico? Why is traffic/escape/hope only one way?
US should have giant picture of all the people killed by Mexican gangs and illegals facing the child photo …
Marr “you (blair) say there are senior doubters inside the Government.”
Blair “I think there may or may not be that.”
Let me summarise Tony Blairs response. Yes, no with a probable maybe.
Anti-immigrant on the right. Anti-business on the left. .. Blairism.
Why is the UK TV License payer paying to hear Tony Blair talk? Can I stop paying the BBC to show my dis-satisfaction on who they pay to have on the BBC shows without going to prison? How much was TB paid by the BBC?
PAY – PER – VIEW PLEASE.
Long,long interview with Tony Blair by the exceptionally incompetent weak lefty Marr. Someone sack Marr for goodness sake.
Other than the BBC, who will see some of the funds taken away from the EU honeypot. Is there anybody other than Alaistair Campbell and Lord Adonis who take the imbecile Blair seriously?
Everybody knows that Blair only does what is right for Tony Blair. Not for the country.
He and his kind are to be mocked with derision along with the rest of the anti British BBC cronies.
Funny how the Labour Party members have disowned their most successful leader. Many Labour politicians still love him though, Chukka for example. Labour in dissarray with supporters who’d vote for a donkey if it had Labour written on the ballot paper. Sal Ami. Stoke was a good example.Thick Stoke. Thick Peckham-Harriet man -hating -paedophile supporting lawyer- Harman.
God I blinking hate anti Brexit, PC, the anti British Labourites. Otherwise known as the BBC.
A great deal of newsprint wasted on a certain alleged Prime Minister today.
Many comments on this site.
Hateful though Blair was, and is. Traitor though Blair was, and is. Deserving of the worst punishments Blair certainly is, and I intend to live long enough to see it.
But it is a big mistake to concentrate on Blair as though he was the sole author of the Labour Party treason.
He was not they were all in it, they all approved it. They all jumped for joy when another million aliens who hate us, were added, TEMPORARILY, to the population.
Many of them are still active in the Labour party, none of them have ever admitted their treason.
The Labour Party is the enemy of the British people.
Their equivalents in the EU are also enemies.
Let us remind ourselves, and let us remind everyone else, at every opportunity, of this treason.
Let us never forget it, let us never forgive it, let us have an unshakeable determination to ensure they pay the price for their actions. Let us be determined to never show them any mercy whatsoever.
Sounds like ‘hate’ to me. Please report yourself to the CPS and sit in the back of a rainbow police car for 10 minutes whilst grinding against an officer of the same sex. All extremists should be given a voice on the BBC including Mr. Blair.
For the Many (labour appearances on BBC), Not the Few (conservatives)
Agree 100%.
The Labour Party agreed to be Blairs pirate ship for as long as they were getting re-elected.
Since then, they are thoroughly compromised, lubed for the boss class and Islam.
Utterly disgusting what became of what was once a patriotic and conserving party that had a few working class people in it.
Hopefully the time will come when being a BBC hack or Labour Party supporter is as bad as being a paedophile…not that much of a leap in most cases.
I wonder who is paying (via the funding of his “institute”) for Blair’s white charger?
On which he is riding to save the distressed EU and Remainer damsels from the Leave dragon.
I don’t think he’s going to get very far in this venture: a more hated figure exists not in British politics.
He needs to get back onto whichever yacht it was where he achieved that remarkable tan and remain there, permanently.
And Jack Straw and Barbara Roche are very, very quiet.
Ignore your oath, listen to you heart.
GP probed for giving child, 12, gender-change hormones {BBC sep2017}
“Dr Helen Webberley said she listens to ‘children’s hearts’ about when they want treatment” – image caption
A Monmouthshire GP is being investigated over complaints about her giving gender-change hormones to children as young as 12.
Dr Helen Webberley has been restricted from treating transgender patients unsupervised while the General Medical Council (GMC) looks into the case.
Listening to hearts eh?
Does the NHS provide such unicorn horns by way of stethoscopes these days? Totally crazy, and typical of the BBC/NHS quack sciences these days.
Doubtless the GMC have already listenened to this quacks heart and found it more than correct.
Aristotle located the heart as the source of thought and reason.
Then the Roman physician Galen located the heart as the source of emotions, and the liver as the source of the passions.
So her training was about 2,000 years out of date, and the quack science is called Classical Cardiology.
Why not give them the ability to vote whilst they take gender drugs for life?
12 year plus, this is child abuse and abuse of power. But she is ‘restricted in her job, but didn’t follow the rules anyway. I’m sure the BBC £3.5bn journalism machine can find the truth ….
Hurricane Irma.
If the BBC are blaming the Tories for being so slow to save Bransons holiday homes-I think it only fair to ask where the EU are in all this.
After all-it`s not just British islands that got lashed-was it not French and Dutch ones too?
Where`s this EU solidarity stuff now then?
I remember some years ago when an earthquake occurred in Haiti, the EU were handwringing and posturing about what they could; should and would do to help the people there; in the meantime the Americans just sent a U.S Navy carrier group to aid the Haitians and maintain order.
I recall this being very grudgingly reported at the time by Jon Snow, on Flannel 4 News, because it encapsulated the essence of the difference between the United States of America and the…ahem…United States of Europa, both in terms of their decision making and the possession and application of power once a determination had been made on a course of action.
Very noticeable again that the BBC could not wait to slag off this country. It is contemptuous of us now and there really is no argument for not shutting it down as soon as possible.
What is it with these people?

Message to Al Beeb ……………………………
Winter
I know how he feels.
Hilarious ! I love the ” we’ll go back to him once we have sorted out the issues “.
Still wondering – Has Ofcom figured out if their office door is push or pull to open yet?
Not had time to read the bbc charter I guess. Too busy dealing with diversity quotas and still studying Amanda Holden’s knockers it appears.
What a pointless bunch of overpaid arseholes.
Quite how bbc avoids the monopolies regulations and supposedly complies with plurality is a great mystery just for starters.
Apologies for both straying from the subject and asking for your help.
I recently commented on the finest British athlete of all time, the finest cyclist of all time, Beryl Burton.
I added some complimentary comments about Eileen Sheridan who broke more ladies distance cycling records, by larger margins, than even Beryl did.
I demanded that these ladies appear on a British postage stamp.
My comments were well received here.
Chris Froome, four times Tour de France winner, has won another important cycle race.
Report from the BBC, giving credit where it is due, HYS on the report now.
I am banned from TWMTB, quelle surprise.
If someone from BBBC could add a note on the HYs saying “well done Chris, however here are two more deserving cases for popular acclaim” I would be most grateful.
Thank you.

Three people have been injured in a stabbing inside a church in Birmingham.
“A 46-year-old MAN is being held on suspicion of attempted murder.”
Was the MAN called Mohammed by any chance?
I think there has been collusion at the top to try and cover up as many attacks as possible. It’s maybe for the best, keeping people in blissful ignorance and denying terrorists the oxygen of publicity.
BB – Next time put the period after oxygen.
The headline on the Northern Ireland homepage at the minute reads, ‘Head of Irish police announces retirement’.
Wtf has this got to do with Northern Ireland? Headline news? This is the Garda, the police force of the Republic of Ireland not the PSNI.
The same Garda who actively colluded with enemies of the British state for years, granting safe haven for murderers, Free State feds renowned for being both corrupt and as thick as the proverbial pig’s. I do not care for or about the bastards.
I identify as Northern Irish. I’m British. The Britishbc however have an intense dislike for me and all that I stand for as my Britishness is too white and monoculturally British, not their bbcbritish. They have therefore decided I’m Irish and should behave and think as such but cannot because I am not a minority either. If there was a united Ireland I would be a minority and then maybe I could benefit from their favour. Through the World Service? Or Mrs Browns Boys or that afternoon police crap, Red Rock? This appears to be their aim, not my benefit, they couldn’t give a fuck, a united Ireland. More room for the noble savage to roam. Or rove.
They have relentlessly pushed an all-Ireland agenda for years through programming, reporting, language, culture and sports. Where in London black pupils are best, here the best children go to schools named after saints, ie, not British/ State but Nationalist/ Irish. And so it goes for voxpops, cultural events, outside broadcasts, the more vowels in your name the better.
Last year, on the day that my eldest daughter started secondary school, 8 of the 10 items on Page 160 for Northern Ireland related directly to the Republic of Ireland. Why?
Why is some gangster getting shot in Limerick of any importance or interest to anyone in NI?
A car accident in Co Donegal may be tragic, but more so than one not reported in Co Antrim?
This is foreign news on a homepage, an attempt at softening the minds and paving the way, the Bbc working on the hearts and minds and, pre-Brexit, helping the EU to unite Ireland, to save the downtrodden from the evil occupiers through occupation. This has been going on for years at a local level but it’s about to go national, or should that be nationalist, NI news will be headline again and already the Irish victim/ British bastards narrative has been decided.
(Don’t they realise there has never been a united Ireland outside British control? Do the the Bbc want Pakistan and India to unite? Do they fuck!)
The progressive, gay-electing, ‘craic’ addicts of the south versus the killjoy god-botherers of the cold, dark north. Catholicism is being discarded, as suits, and the EU doctrine is filling the empty vessels. In the north and the south the priest is losing power and the EU have done the maths, their numbers add up, there are just the small matters of a border, democracy and a million British who want no part of it. Algebra and sums are hard.
Give them Varadkar, Macron and the like, there will be another one along soon and the bbc will be able to fill airtime, keep their jobs and earn their money as they look for another, job and Euroboy, sourcing their contacts in the media and politics as quality control becomes of less importance on such a fast moving production line of model Ts, all unique in their sameness.
But why do they hate me, a Protestant, heterosexual, grammar educated, married white British male who is a father with no criminal record or convictions and who eats meat? I’m of no use to them, I am not a slave to ideology so don’t need theirs.
From reading other posts and looking at some names on here I think there are a few posters with a similar cultural background to myself who feel the same. The constant belittling and undermining of my culture and of my beliefs and more recently, of my history, especially by the Bbc, led me to find this site, looking for others with a similar realisation and view, able and willing to think for themselves.
For those of you not from here, I think that you’re going to realise why many in NI have known the Bbc are anti-British for years, long before they exposed themselves fully through Brexit, because the EUbbc will be using Ireland and Ireland will let them. I think the Bbc will throw a lot more our way over the next few months, lies and falsehoods, hypothetical poverty, economic ruin, the threat of violence because NI seems to have been chosen as the soft underbelly, not a particularly wise move if history means anything, European aggression has been thwarted in the past here, but maybe I am wrong about that headline.
Perhaps who is the next head of the Irish police will matter to me.
Well, If that’s the case, then so be it. I’ll make sure that I matter to them. I won’t be alone.
Rich, that’s one of the best posts I’ve read on here.
Agree with Al Shubtil.
Post of the day-you speak for so many of us both sides of the sea.
“More room for the savage to roam/rove”….poetic or what?
I`ve long watched Ireland turn into a house slave for the EU, whilst claiming its old culture as being alive…it is dying with its elderly.
They once had Conor Cruise O Brien and Patrick Hillary..they`ve now got pigmies like Higgins and Toibin.
The EU has eviscerated the south, and they STILL claim some independence for the rest of Britain whilst giving us the likes of Mrs Browns Boys and Dara O Briaian.
Ireland is now a joke, living in the past and helpless in theface of Brussels.
Might change my mind if Anne Marie Waters gets to lead UKIP though!
Blood pressure alert! The following article is not news, but some poor journalism attempting to present paedophilia as a not so nasty acceptable medical condition. As some have suggested before, drip, drip, drip. So how come transgenderism and homosexuality isn’t presented as a medical condition?
The young paedophiles who say they don’t abuse children
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-41213657
Plus, the guy who just got a prison sentence for buying a child sex doll and looking at images online wasn’t actually physically abusing them….
The BBC are disgusting.
“My age of attraction is one to 15 but as they get younger the emotional attraction is more prominent.”
…
“I don’t really think of a toddler in much of a sexual way, but rather, I want to cuddle one and make sure they’re happy. That is mainly it with younger children.”
…
Adam says she believed that he would never abuse a child. But she couldn’t hide her reaction when he told her that he was attracted to children as young as one.
The young paedophiles who say they don’t abuse children {bbc.co.uk sep2017}
Word Search: law x 0; arrest x 0; data x 0; rape x 0; crime x 1; illegal x 3; wrong x 6; abuse x 27; paedophile x 29;
– Can a one year old child say stop that, it’s wrong and protect itself?
– If society says ‘carry on if you want to’ where will this lead to once a paedophile feels accepted and normal?
– Any reports on how many lead to rape and abuse? Plus they will never really fit into a ‘normal’ society, if you want a normal society that is.
– Why only recently this was reported on the BBC site, any connections? – “Paul Leighton jailed for rapes (& blackmail of 100 children) thousands of miles away {bbc.co.uk sep2017}”: blackmailed into repeatedly raping his one-year-old niece.
The Beeb website breathlessly reports that a YouTube star used the ‘n’ word.
Mass murder, child rape et cetera? Ignore, deflect, deny.
Upsetting word found to have been used in some context, having trawled laboriously through hours of footage to find it? Front page news.

Hurricane Irma seems to have been quite a blow.
Luckily, the BBC has made it epic. The music. The sweeping shots. The overturned car with no wheels (what chance a naked corrugated roof if five bolts cannot restrain a tyre). The solemn actor with the lovely t- shirt.
Dimbles would be proud.
Not sure what those marines were all about. Where did they come from?
Also not too sure if the sub is from BBC Pidgen.
The comments suggest going beyond the BBC story might be a wise first step.
I’m struggling to fully understand this whole story. Predictably, msm coverage is just serving to further obfuscate the issues involved. The whole tone of the BBC report above is to the effect that this is all a gigantic conspiracy by anti-muslim elements in Myanmar to eject (‘ethnically cleanse’) the Rohingya from Myanmar. Hindus and Buddhists are apparently implicated in acts of terrorism and misinformation against muslims.
The BBC provides little to no context, background or factual history. I cannot get to the heart of what this is all about and who might actually be the genuinely aggrieved or the aggressor here. This suggests to me that the BBC is dissembling (as usual) over a narrative too complicated to fit nicely into their approved boxes.
Yet another catalogue of violence, suffering and misery in which we see the BBC clearly come out unambiguously in favour of their friends in the Religion of Special Exceptions™.
Can we just have the facts, please, BBC? Any chance at all? Ever?
[EDIT] – I found this page helpful in explaining much of the backstory of the situation in Myanmar regarding the Rohingya Insurgency. Illuminating stuff and places the present troubles in some kind of coherent context.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohingya_insurgency_in_Western_Myanmar
ALSO: Some important detail the BBC somehow omitted to mention:
“…The Arakan Rohingya Salvation Army (Burmese: အာရ်ကန်ရိုဟင်ဂျာ ကယ်တင်ရေးတပ်မတော်; abbreviated ARSA),[5][6][7] also known by its former name Harakah al-Yaqin (English: Faith Movement)[8][9] is a Rohingya insurgent group active in the jungles of northern Rakhine State, Myanmar. According to a December 2016 report by the International Crisis Group, it is led by Ata Ullah, a Rohingya man who was born in Karachi, Pakistan, and grew up in Mecca, Saudi Arabia.[1][2] Other members of its leadership include a committee of Rohingya émigrés in Saudi Arabia.[10]
According to the lead interrogator of ARSA suspects jailed in Sittwe, Police Captain Yan Naing Latt, the group’s goal is to create a “democratic Muslim state for the Rohingya” in Myanmar.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arakan_Rohingya_Salvation_Army
So, Myanmar Government forces are engaged in a fight against – and reacting to – militant Islamic insurgents/terrorists seeking to create, via terror and murder, a muslim state within an already existing nation state? Hmmm… now, where have I read that before?
Why is that so difficult to report?
Not to worry – the UN’s on the case and they always get the job done …………………………………………..
I searched in vain on the BBC’s multi-billion pound website for news of Swedish firemen being attacked when attending a burning home, and forced to abandon the attempt. Luckily there are still some places on the web where you can get the real news. – http://www.breitbart.com/london/2017/09/09/swedish-firemen-let-building-burn-attacked-no-go-zone/
As opposed to the handful of people waving EU flags at the proms, the Beeb managed to insert every one of those into their coverage!
As we suspected it would, (despite BBC reporters who are posted, hyperventilating, on every street corner in Miami and Tampa) the Great Hurricane is ameliorating as it travels through Florida, and will shortly be deemed only a ‘tropical storm’. It was interesting that the Today programme decided to interview Debbie Wasserman Schultz on the hurricane/storm. The BBC has done us a favour of confirming that it knows about this woman. They can now have no excuse why they have not yet reported on the controversy swirling around her head (which should engulf the whole of the US Democratic Party, if there is any justice at all remaining in the DoJ).
It is bigger than Watergate. One for the memory hole, just like Hillary’s emails.
The Dems just managed to dodge another HUGE scandal from O’Bummer’s tenure, involving the political weaponization of the IRS under Lois Lerner and how they targeted the enemies on the “Right” of Barry and his party: Tea Party members etc.
The DOJ, under A-G Jeff Sessions, has decided not to prosecute Lerner, probably due to the fact that the Dem appointees at the IRS managed to destroy all the evidence that could be used against them; all this whilst Bazza was still in office.
BBC latest on Facebook:
“What better way to bring the UK together?”
Guess who it features?
The BBC have actually been caught peddling fake news in a court judgement last week. The story contains all the inevitable factors Brexit, racism, and murder by some chav.
All of these were proved to be lies.
https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/david-keighleys-bbc-watch-bbc-bias-turns-street-scuffle-anti-brexit-cause-celebre/
You probably remember the story of the Polish man allegedly murdered by a gang of racist thugs encouraged by Brexit, eventually escalating to the Polish ambassador being involved.
The reality was very different, it was not a murder, but a manslaughter, the racism came from the drunken Police man & his mates and it was only after they assaulted one of the youths that they retaliated with a single punch, but even that was not fatal, it was the landing on the pavement and banging his head.
The BBC claims that it will not blame Islamic terrorists until the facts are known, and yet it does not extend that same caution when it believes the perpetrators are white. Most people would regard that as that meaningless word ‘racism’, although the BBC don’t accept you can be racist against white people so they are fair game for every insult and slur going.
Charlottesville: mentally ill man drives his car in panic into a crowd after being attacked by hordes is 100% a ‘white nationalist.’
Barcelona attack: not a single mention of ideology of attackers.
The juxtaposition of the events really exposed their dishonesty.
2 parents were under attack by Montague ( privileged Lady Somebody or the other) on BBC Today for objecting to their 6 year olds being taught about transgender and seeing a pupil turn up dressed as a member of the opposite sex. Latest example of a major BBC and left wing establishment obsession.
VD scratching that one, plus the woes of the young Jimmy Savile cover act.
Amazing she has the time to promote her Times series.
I think dear old Sarah is not really a dim bimbo, much as she & her colleagues sometimes like to portray her as such from time to time but there was a beautiful moment of collision with reality in that interview.
Sarah really wanted to make out the Christian couple as the villains but she suddenly realised – and it was noticeable by the sound of the penny dropping in front of her microphone – that they and their child were making as much of a choice in taking their child out of school for home-schooling as the so-called ‘transgender child’ was exercising a choice in switching between ‘being a boy’ and ‘being a girl’ from day to day.
R5 Nicky Campbell just asked phone us “what’s your views on 5 year old school girls wearing headscarves as part of their school uniform ?”
I think it’ll be the 9 am phone in
Hijab phone in
Proponents are FALSELY saying the hijab is obligatory in Islam.
No it isn’t only modesty for adults is.
They say kids are only copying mothers.
When it’s put that high heels and lipstick are banned in school, they say hijab is OK cos it’s a religious symbol so can’t be banned.
Well some trans boy could argue that high heels are his religion.
Toady about 8.35 this morning Humpty interviewing the returning ‘Sir’ Simon Rattle. The latter pays tribute to the EUSSR’s substantial funding for the Birmingham concert hall where he made his name.
Very generous that EUSSR – with my money!
Just before 8am, Today also mused over Brexit with Dame Judi Dench.
Yet another luvvie who`s terrified of Islam , but will never be let say so. So she blames Brexit for it all, by way of liberal displacement. Poor old soul.
The BBC bully these arts pensioners for fun don`t they? Well, who`s paying for their performances if not the BBC and EU?
Poor Judi spoke of happier days when Ted Heath welcomed them all in 1973 to do Ode To Joy and Moliere kinds of things…the EU gave us money to put on some aspirational crap to show how European we are.
She liked that.
Only a few years later though we had rapes on stage with the Romans in Britain…we had horse shagging in Equus etc…
If we replaced Romans and bestiality with The Gentlemen of Cologne…maybe we could film the current endless reruns, and pleaee her even more.
Only the BBC think that what Rattle and Dench says matters to the rest of us…actors, performers and fey global conductors or minstrels are unelected global lily pad hopping “paid to fake” types. They only had one vote as I did.
Sneaky : R5 news just ended by saying “the cost of off shore windfarms has halved they are now cheaper than nuclear”
That’s a nice END TAKE AWAY to brainwash people
.. Probably fed in by industry PR bods.
#1 Nuclear is not compatible
It supplies RELIABLE power as per plan
Wind supplied intermittent power , often not delivering when you DO NEED it.
And then often dumping power on the network when it is NOT needed.
And thus putting strain on network and on other suppliers who have to suddenly switch off and lose money.
Even so The comparison comes from comparing the Feed In Tariff of one project the new Hinckley PS .. Not existing nuclear, or possibly future nuclear.
And doesn’t take account of the extra infrastructure and inefficiency costs from wind with its extra long transmission networks.
And the way windfarm cable operates on average at 30% of capability.
So it uses 3 times as much cable even if the distance were the same. (Which it isn’t ).
Stew, remind me what happens to a wind farm in the face of a storm, a hurricane even, say a Category 3 hurricane. 😉
How dare you say that wind turbines and their extra long transmission cables are vulnerable to storms. That’s sacrilege.
Since we never see fallen turbines on the BBC we know they never fall..you just have to GI to specialist websites to see the pictures.
And even though roofs get blown away the solar panels remain magically in the air producing power.
Funny that conventional power can keep supplying hospitals all the way through most storms. Whereas solar doesn’t come back until clouds have all gone.
And wind power can’t come back until the wind has calmed.
Even then those intermittent power can’t work unless conventional power is on to balance the network.
Having visited a few of the Islands on a Caribbean cruise, I would say that the storm has created a perfect opportunity to construct some decent housing ! From what I could see, the natives were living in badly knocked together sheds painted in lurid colours with deep drains running along the camber of the roads. Clearly tourists and wealthy home owners live behind the gates of their compounds and hotel grounds, but when we are dropped off at cruise ports, we tend to see a different picture of poverty.
From our correspondent from The Netherlands: two wind turbine mechanics, respectively 19 and 21 years old, died because of the fire. One fell to his death and was found on the ground underneath the turbine, the other died from his burns and was found inside the charred remains of the turbine. … A surprinsingly large number of wind turbines are involved in accidents around the world. Most of them are blades falling off, turbines collapsing, or nacelles burning down to a skeleton (400 – 800 litres of burning oil are not easy to extinguish, especially as firemen rarely have ladders long enough for these >100-meter long contraptions). Some human deaths have been reported.
Summary of Wind Turbine Accident data to 31 May 2017
Wasn’t there a proposal a short while ago, that when the wind wasn’t blowing, that the turbines could be driven by…er…electricity? Brilliant 🙂
Of course so far as Florida is concerned Irma was no storm in a tea cup. But one gets the impression that
both the BBC and American networks seem rather disappointed that with their mass coverage that the
damage is not worse.
We heard from what looked like a windless condo in Tampa, a BBC reporter telling us that just because not a single
hair on his head was rustling or that you couldn’t see a leaf on a tree fluttering that one was not to be fooled.
In the studio the expert weather forecaster told us that a downgraded force ONE hurricane could be just as severe as
a category FIVE. . Sam Cooke’s ” Don’t know much about history, don’t know much about meteorology” or something
like that sprung to mind. We will just have to wait for Hurricane Daisy or whatever inane name they give the
next weather system before the reporters sent on their expensive jaunts can get some wind to send them into
ecstatic’s .I know you can call me a masochist. But the day I see one of these reporters being blown down
the road into oblivion holding on to their mikes, will send me into hysterics.!
Is Gogglebox SJW/ vicar Kate Bottley the new Nadiya? A sand blasted version to appease the masses, could she be part of a dreamteam double act with the Rev Richard? Watch out Nicki, I feel a Sunday morning shake-up may be on the cards.
Tv and Radio over the weekend, 3 times, 3 different programmes, none religious, but what’s their game? Proof of balance? Female, Northern, and Christian. Take that, the right type of Christian lite with a hot line to Welby no doubt, but aren’t all TV vicars women, is being Northern and Christian enough? She’s married. To a man. Coles will be needed for backup.
She’s awful and looks like one of the ‘Frozen’ trolls, I expect we will be seeing a lot more of this newly discovered ‘talent’.
Rich, I’ve heard mixed reports about Rev. Bottley. She was the parish priest of one of my friends, and though not a great churchgoer, he stopped going altogether as he couldn’t stand her trendy services (check the online video of her infamous wedding service to see what I mean). She is however apparently very popular with people who otherwise wouldn’t have any contact with Christianity and perhaps we should be thankful that the BBC at least in some way retains a link to the historic faith of these islands. A media vicar is always going to be a bit larger than life and the BBC won’t get involved unless there is some PC angle (gay/female/preferably both).
My parish priest for example when I first met him came across as a rather uninteresting person – but after getting to know him I realise he is very intelligent, charismatic in a quiet way and a living, breathing embodiment of the love of Jesus Christ. He’ll never get on the telly though as being white*, male, heterosexual and small ‘c’ conservative he doesn’t tick any BBC boxes!
*it’s already been discussed on here, but the media tends to steer clear of black clergy as in general, they do not hold the ‘approved’ views of the liberal/left. I would imagine a gay black vicar would be their ‘holy grail’ as would a gay imam, but such persons are rarer than hen’s teeth!
Agree with you Cranmer, but I don’t see her as being larger than life or particularly entertaining she just appears to conform to and agree with all of the ideals that the Bbc want Christianity to have, it’s really just another form of socialism to them, bending to accommodate rather than assert.
She may make Christianity accessible to some but I get the feeling that your mate is more reflective of the majority view of her and the Christianity she espouses seems to skip the hard parts such as personal responsibility and the acceptance of guilt, more a crutch than a staff. Let us look after you, as far as it goes, don’t think for yourself, just agree with us.
I’m not particularly religious, I don’t accompany my wife and kids to church, but I realise that Christianity allows it to be so, has nurtured the society that allows me that choice. The Bbc however do not and use people like her to pay lip service without them knowing it.
The African churches are booming, Evangelism and Pentecostalism is growing at an incredible rate in countries as diverse as China and Brazil, and closer to home in Northern Ireland especially the numbers of youth involved in churches outside the established ones are increasingly healthy.
This is not because of the diluted social busybodying of wets such as Kate and Justin, people seem to want some strong guidance, something to believe in and to celebrate, rather than just more of the same old pc liberal advice and nannying.
Having completed the UK withdrawl from the EU, we next need to leave, and stop paying for, the UN.
The UN, also known, from its inception, as the Anti-Western association of states, changed its name recently to the Islamic Anti-Western and Buddhist hating association of states.
As demonstrated by the latest whitewash of Islamic terrorism in Burma, in which the neutrally, impartially named Zeid Ra’ad al-Hussein, demanded that all Buddhists be killed to provide lebensraum for The Islamic State of preace, freedom and equality in South East Asia.
In fact this demand for all Buddhists to be killed, did not appear in the Islamic State, sorry UN, report. It just exists in the Koran, is transferred to the minds of all Muzzies everywhere, and then gets translated into the mass murder which the only tangible product of Islamic existence.
Well done to the Buddhists, throw out all the Muzzies, create Muzzie-proof borders, remain eternally vigilant, gaining thereby the ability to progress in accordance with your beliefs, free from the pollution and contamination which is all the Muzzies can offer.
John Bolton wants the UN off New York soil.
He`s a fan of Trumps-if Bannon was still there, we`d have a chance of getting this.
Would LOVE to see Lagos or Lima get the chance to host the United Nations…why should Americans pay for this nonsense?
Trump seems to be losing…my gorgeous Ted Malloch has yet to be appointed to the EU as Ambassador…why so Mr President?

Imagine that Debbie Harrys band will be allowed to learn to ululate though in some Ali Khan call to prayer though.
Saw Blondie on the BBC yesterday-she was unctuous in thanking the BBC for getting the platform to play.
Wonder how much THAT cost us!
Those who praise the BBC inevitabley get onto Ken Bruces playlist i`m sure. Hope Chris Evans was asked to stump up for the Virgin Islands appeal, and surely Boris Johnson could have asked Humphrys this morning about how much HE had put into the Irma bucket. The BBC seem awful keen to get money out there-as if they`ve not left plenty of their won offshore out there. That may well be why the BBC staff give a fig about our old empires small collection of Carribean rocks, since last week.
How much HAVE our BBC millionaires given thus far_or do Grenfell have to do without another visit from Jon Snow?
Stump up Beeb!
Hurricane Irma wrecks Sir Richard Branson’s Necker Island home (BBC failing to report Branson’s other homes) {sep2017}
Richard Branson Estates and Homes (5)
Ulusaba safari lodge
Sir Richard Branson owns a Private Game Reserve and lodge in South Africa. The private game reserve offers the travelers more than 13,500 hectares of untouched African bush to roam in search of the ‘Big Five’.
Kasbah Tamadot
Richard Branson’s Kasbah Tamadot is a magical hotel located at the foothills of the Atlas Mountains, which he bought in 1998 during a ballooning expedition.
The Roof Gardens
A part of Sir Richard Branson’s “Virgin Limited Edition”, The Roof Gardens is a unique retreat in central London. Originally built in 1938, Branson’s exclusive retreat includes themed gardens featuring more than 70 full size trees, flamingos, fountains spread across one and a half acres, and a club house.
The Lodge Verbier
Another pricey asset of Sir Richard Branson, “The Lodge Verbier” is a division of his “Virgin Limited Edition”, featuring outstanding design architecture. Equipped with stunning Master suites and a number of recreational amenities, the Lodge offers the best accommodation and pleasure experience.
Mahali Mzuri
Situated in Kenya, “Mahali Mzuri” is another addition to Branson’s collection of eclectic and exclusive retreats. The luxury Kenyan Safari camp “Mahali Mzuri” whose name means “beautiful place” is expected to open in 2013.
Necker Belle yacht
What really distinguishes Branson’s yacht from other celebrity yachts is that it is one of the very few luxury catamarans in the world. Originally launched as the Lady Barbaretta in 2003, Necker Belle spent two years being refitted at Australia’s Azzura Marine.
Necker Island
If anyone wants to partake in the luxury of one of the most celebrated island resorts of the world, Necker Island is the place for them. Multipreneur and Virgin boss, Richard Branson bought it for a paltry 180,000 pounds back in 1978.
Makepeace Island
The Makepeace Island is at Noosa at Australia’s Sunshine Coast. The island has opened its doors for commoners for private lease for the first time.
Moskito Island
Branson paid $10 million for Moskito in 2007 and is aiming to turn it into “the most ecologically friendly” island in the world.

Update from Necker Island before Hurricane #Irma arrives https://virg.in/oGj
– Take care of you and your family. Be safe
– Be safe! Sending best wishes to all in the path of this monster storm …
– Man who owns 5 homes around the world decides to stay on island as hurricane force 5 approaches, same man who jumps in hot air balloons and race yachts gets another adrenaline kick and free promotion for this company and name.
– Can the BBC, rather than PROMOTE VIRGIN, use its £3.5bn News Machine see if Sir Richard Branson used his money to help build better local infra-structure prior to the storm?
Thanks for that info Marky. Its not until you see it in print you realise how wealthy Dicky Pickle is. Personally I’ve steered clear of any product that has ‘Virgin’ attached to it – out of principle. Branson and myself are the same age, and remember when he first started, I didn’t like him then and even less so now.
Man has feeling, newspaper turns feeling into claim with regret and prints story … Trump regrets ‘bizarre mistake’ of Paris climate pullout, Branson claims {guardian }
“I’ve got a feeling that the president is regretting what he did. Maybe his children and son in law [adviser Jared Kushner] are saying, ‘Look, I told you so.’ Hopefully there is a positive change of mind.”
Branson was joined in a panel discussion by Andrew Liveris, chief executive of Dow Chemical and part of a group that advises the White House on manufacturing. Liveris said chemicals companies have moved on from “full frontal denial” of climate change and that businesses now grasp the seriousness of global warming.
– How to turn Richard Branson’s feelings and maybes into a claim with a bizarre regret from President Trump?
Me too Brissels.
I was one of the hippie chicks in Vernon Yard as I complained about his not signing my boyfriends band in the mid 70s.
What a weasel…he was right about the band though, I should have tipped my cloche hat at Mike Oldfield instead!
May be wrong(to be honest, I`ve largely given up on the BBC) but I have heard nothing about this, the anniversary of 9/11.
Had Obama or Clinton been in office, well maybe we might have-or, given that its five years to the day when these two let their Embassy staff die hideous deaths in Benghazi-maybe not.
But “9/11 changed everything”…I know it`s a comedy cliche…but that`s a tragic mockery of the day that woke up our world(well, those of us who needed it). And-as yet-no commemoration.
No surprise given that Bloomberg and Obama would rather have a mosque at Gound Zero than any truthful memorial, I`m sure.
I`m hiring United 93 tonight, no greater film exists. God Bless America.
I wonder whether the memorialization of the anniversary of St Jo of Cox’s death will be allowed to slip down the al Beebus’ memory hole as easily as those of 9/11; 7/7 and the murder Lee Rigby have?
Al, don’t forget the 2007 Northern Rock crisis. The BBC produced a belated nod in that direction on Sunday evening on R4 on The Westminster Hour but, like Brown’s & Darling’s eventual NRB intervention, it’s a little late.
There was a whole prog on R4 Friday morning
Seemed to be all the antis like Peston, charity, bank clerk who lost his pension.. rather than anyone from the banks management

Dalai Lama admits he is an ‘admirer’ of the EU as he calls for a century of peace on a visit to Northern Ireland {dailymail sep2017}
* Tibetan spiritual leader is on a two-day visit to Londonderry, Northern Ireland
* The 82-year-old said he is ‘an admirer of the EU’ and slammed global warming
* He is there to celebrate the 20th anniversary of charity Children in Crossfire
For ten days last month I saw first-hand what the Chinese are doing in Tibet. The reports you’ve heard of cultural genocide are true. China is obliterating the ideas, traditions and habits of the Tibetan people. … Do we care? We’d better. China’s confidence increases with each step onto the world stage. What the Chinese are doing in Tibet tells us a lot about what we can expect from them as their power grows. {huffingtonpost}
This article, published in the Hindustan Times, is the latest in a long list of publications highlighting the Tibetan leadership’s financial inefficiency, irregularities and hypocrisies. {may2017}
Ms Moynihan stated that Tibetan NGOs, in particular the International Campaign for Tibet (ICT), have raised millions of dollars in donations and aid over the last 60 years. Yet these donations have resulted in very little, both politically and physically. The Chinese continue to reject dialogue with the Tibetan leadership, Western countries refuse to take a stand for the Tibetan cause, and the Tibetans living in exile continue to endure terrible living conditions. In short, the Tibetan leadership operates some of the most intensive fundraising campaigns in the world, but has very little to show for it.

Classic bias on this evenings news.. regarding mining lithium in Cornwall Remember when the BBC reports on Fracking activity and interviews every man and his dog who protests ..Not this evening! Not a protestor in sight so it would seem and why? lithium is the key ingredient for batteries for electric cars! For a cleaner more greener environment… Bugger Off !!!
