For one brief moment I thought Ali-Baba-Brownstuff had seen the light: “On Monday night I decided to give up watching the BBC ten o’clock news. The voices I have depended on since childhood to tell me what was happening, and why, are no longer reliable.”
Quite right Yas, join the club, attagirl.
But hang on, what prompted this Damascene insight? She believes the beeb went too easy on AfD and too hard on mad Merkel!
Proof if it were needed that Yasmin and her ilk are stark raving bonkers.
Still, good news if she stops paying the extortion fee. One less!

Hi Martel – I suspect she would only see the light if it shone out of her ass. I think she is foremost an egotist – working towards making herself seem important.

Give that girl a shami peerage – but more vibrancy in the chamber .
Noticeable how all these ‘opinionated’ talking heads who like the sound of their own voices, (yet manage to weadle themselves on to the tele for a fee), have surnames that clearly indicate their heritage is not of this nation, so its of little relevance to me what they say and am certainly not interested in hearing their negative opinions on my country and its government – whoever is in power.

thats the thing with commie’s

see Orwell
It also fits the anti Semitic strand within labour regarding kuensberg .
In a way , though, politicians and journos – who float about the society they make a living talking about -deserve to have a touch of reality and consequences sometimes . If they choose to ignore the voices of those who do not concur with their beliefs then there can be no proper democracy .
You see men dominate in science/tech/engineering/maths at uni cos of some kind of bias
…the reality the girls get better exam results so hoover up all the other subjects so men are left with these more difficult dirty, boring ones.
“the only men who are good enough to get into university are men who are good at STEM.
Women are good enough to go into non-STEM and STEM fields.”
“the average gap in pay between men and women who do the same jobs is tiny or non-existent”
Women hoover up most of the government jobs with their super-generous pensions
“Meanwhile, Canadian men are far more likely than women to work in the private sector, in, to put it broadly, outdoor jobs.”
“Efforts to get more males into fields that have become predominantly female are almost unheard of. Would it not be fair to try to shift more males into the humanities, nursing, office administration, psychology and other female-majority fields?” like primary teaching

EuroNews. Schengen borders to be policed. Too little too late.
Cornyn- genderfication of housing estates. ????
Why Saudi allow women to drive. Note that they allowed it, women didn’t win this right. It was given.

I live in a one Party state labour council in London which has gentrified an area and then closed the roads to favour cyclists.
Large number of residents objected but the labour council did what they wanted . Now main roads are clogged all day every day and they wonder why air quality is fucked . Corbin dreaming again.,
A new word for me, I thought I heard ‘genderfication’ on EuroNews but you are right Fedup2, it’s: gentrify: renovate and improve (a house or district) so that it conforms to middle-class taste.
Note how my brain hears genderfication rather than gentrifcation, as the brain replaces the word because it’s expecting to hear it due to the amount of news/reports on the subject!

Thanks Mice, great to see Milo back on form and barely letting the beeboid moron get a word in edgeways.
He drips disdain for the rotten Corporation, how delicious.
Felt actually sorry for the beeboid – he must be an agency type – or thought he could get his ten questions and go home – instead he got a full rhetoric – the end line about journos being afraid to criticise Islam but ok to criticise “the right “ didn’t get traction unfortunately.
Amazing talk … I wish I had the speed and power of his thoughts … “they (UC Berkeley) have 65 grand of my (Milo) money, they said they returned it, they didn’t. Their liars and no one will call them out on it. Not a single journalist will write a story about it (BBC journalist listening does not offer his £3.5bn BBC Services). 65 thousand dollars, I paid for those venues and they refused to give those venues. They haven’t given me the venues and they haven’t given me the money back. And all the while, they are leaking my speaker list to the chronicle of higher education, to give Antifa a heads up about who is speaking. They gave domestic terrorists a month long heads up on law enforcement. ” – {youtube – Milo Clubs The BBC to Death … Again – @9:24}

Brilliant! Milo certainly has his facts straight the Beeb guy was completely out of his depth!

Not BBC related but following the same ethos, I’m sure that no one has failed to notice the sudden proliferation of overly diverse adverts, however I think the New McCains advert sets a new level. McCains has been added to my boycott list.
Geoff
McCain has had his f—–g chips
Nice to see McCain celebrating the rich diversity of Sodom and Gomorrah.
But hang on, that little experiment didn’t end too well if I remember correctly.
P.S. Remember not to look back when the brimstone and fire come raining down.
lets start a list just so we can all steer clear can we have it as a sticky

That advert must be registering around eleven on the diversometer.
FFS! I thought that McDonalds were bad enough.

re Cucumberpatch:

“Adolescent sexuality seems like an appropriate segue into an obvious subject. As a young boy, Cumberbatch was sent to an all-boys prep school, Brambletye in West Sussex, followed by five years at Harrow, an all-boys boarding school and an incubator for eight British prime ministers. In the U.K., this detail immediately fixes him in the public mind as a “posh boy,” a characterization he’s too polite to unpick as the lazy reduction it is, while acknowledging, nevertheless, that Harrow School was blessed with a theater superior to many in London.
For Cumberbatch, boarding school was a wonderful place to grow up “because you have that complete experience of being a child,” he says. “You are not going to and from a place all the time, and I was very, very hungry for company. My mom and dad, poor them — I used to ask every Christmas and birthday for a brother or sister. That’s all I really wanted when I was growing up, because I was an only child.”
Thank God he’s an only child, I couldn’t take another one like this virtue signalling prick.
Again BBC editorial integrity locates the key stories that take precedence.
Comments perhaps not as hoped.
BBC Brazil was using fake photographer’s stolen, for quite a while
Long account
http://www.sbs.com.au/yourlanguage/portuguese/en/audiotrack/catch-me-if-you-can-brazilian-fake-war-photographer-may-be-hiding-australia
It says that 5 media women had online love affairs with the fake character
I’m betting that at least one was on BBC staff
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-latin-america-41174069
This is the sane BBC that kept reporting that a little girl was trapped alive under a Mexican school. That turned out to a fictional narrative and all te children were already dead.
Question why does the British Broadcasting Corp have Brazilian staff in the Middle East ?
… woudn’t that be the job of Brazilian media ?
Bloody hell. I knew the BBC would be sympathetic to Corbyn’s speech, but I didn’t foresee the News at Ten treating it as the second coming.
Wet panties and tissues on the bed in BBC land.

‘Mate’, it wasn’t a BBC headline when I posted it. That’s the point.
I think StewGreen’s point was simply to try avoid saying Not Mentioned By The BBC when it has been. It just gives an opening to the likes of maxigirl to derail the thread.
Didn’t you just love that tender moment at The Labour Party Conference when they all started singing “Happy Birthday” to their beloved Diane. Christ almighty, my toes curled so much I’ve had trouble getting my shoes off.
It was excruciating.
I was waiting for Jezza to announce “And now for the cake.”
“I was waiting for Jezza to announce “And now for the cake.””
Too late. She already got to the cake and scoffed it in one mouthful including the plate, stand and table!
Jeff,
Having the memory of what these people have said and done before I must admit I have no understanding of the electorate . How could they fall for the money tree trick ? How could anyone vote for a shadow cabinet like that? Starmer has some talent but the rest ? Lady nugee? Comrade hateful McDonald ? A daft shadow education secretary and Diane in charge of mi5 ? Please. What a great comedy – ah – forgot – albeeb don’t do comedy any more . They do ‘mrs somebody’s boys ‘ or something like it
Fedup2
‘Diane in charge of mi5’
Really funny, but then it becomes truly frightening as the possibility kicks in.
Angela Rayner, Education Minister who has no academic qualifications.
You couldn’t make it up.
Wronged –
Come on Lady Nugee as the foreign sec and shabby shabi as the AG. That little communist fella from Harlow in charge of defence . And someone black ( female ) in charge of something to beat the tokenism and sit on the front bench at PMQ next to the great leader.
And put keef vas in the treasury –
First thing for a labour government – abolish the navy army and airforce to create a British Defence Force in order to get rid of the Nuc subs. They’ll sell em to the argies.
No academic qualifications? No kidding, she comes across like someone with special needs.
News shite tonight. Emily Maitlis introduces a special report on floor 21 of Grenfell tower.
Straight over to a ‘Special Correspondent’ with the most dreadful mournful emoting I have heard in a long time.
Straight away the narrative is diversity, poverty stricken, blah blah blah. Neatly fitting in with the Corbyn narrative of poor social housing at the Labour conference today. What a co-incidence!
But hang on. The evil Tory council had just spent errrr….. £90k per flat doing the building up!!! How many private sector house owners can afford that? How much would the Trots have spent on this social housing? And who lives on floor 21? A management consultant and an IT manager among others.
So the left wing polemical narrative is totally undermined by their own evidence in the first 5 minutes.
Absolutely dreadful reporting from the dreadful biased BBC.
The same people who could never get to Rotherham-towns to report on the 5,000 victims of foreign culture
..run up to Grenfell every 5 minutes to report on the 72 mainly foreign victims
Sluff
Completely agree.
I just caught the last moments of the reportage. I thought the interviewer was going to breakdown and start wailing with grief. I don’t see the same tearful concern for the victims of the latest muslim terrorist atrocity. That would probably be considered too islamophobic. The search for “justice” is supposed to be at stake. It couldn’t be anything to do with maximising any fortcoming compensation payments, of course.
Not the BBC but they do seem to mirror the narrative Four months on and Talk Radios Sam Delaney is still devoting every Thursday afternoon to go live from the Grenfell Tower area.
Banging on about how social housing was brought about after the war to ensure that nobody in Britain would have to live in squalor. Except he didn’t mention that the social housing then gets filled with immigrants whilst there are still homeless British people living on the streets!
The council spent £9 million refurbishing those “neglected” flats. That included wall insulation and cladding to meet the EU’s carbon emission targets. The wall insulation and cladding panels passed the EU’s safety tests, otherwise they would not have been used.
The much better British Standard tests would have shown that in real life, when combined, the insulation and cladding were dangerous. However, since they passed the EU test, the BS test was not needed.
That is the root of this tragedy. Our government is really in Brussels, and Westminster just acts as a middle man, handing down the laws agreed in Brussels. This is one of the main reasons we must leave the EU.
Don’t expect Newsshite to report on this any time soon.
Mrs May should or ‘ship out’ if the posts on HYS have anything to go by?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-41397181
Tory Party, get your act together and get Jacob Rees-Mogg in before this nation goes down the pan. The Tories should not have put ‘remainers’ in charge of Great Britain.
Are there any Tory posters on this site or was Essexman the last ?
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-41408150
Yes, anyone seen Essexman?
Or Friend Lefty?
Essexman posts on BBC HYSs, IIRC, but don’t think he’s been around there for a while. Has a business to run, of course, & also may have been off on hols.
Taffy – I dont think it is possible for the Tory party to get their act together now despite a few worthies such as Rees -Mogg etc.
I think they were doomed as soon as the elected an undemocratic political underachiever such as May as their leader who promptly filled the cabinet with Remain supporters such as Rudd and Phil rather than those who wanted to carry out our democratically expressed will.
The tragedy of it all as I see it is that at the same time these bastards (under the Moron) were also able to stiff the chances of the likes of Farage who could have turned UKIP into something truly great instead of a party more concerned with the price of fish and chips and infighting rather than changing the UK for the better.
Instead we now we have a resurgent and anti British Labour party who could now well be elected because many of us are wondering around like political zombies wondering where to assign our vote for the best interests of the UK. Whilst the kids (high on the drug OJ) think that Uncle jeremy will right all wrongs and create a world of love and peace fit for dem kidz.
All will be winners with homes for all, love for all, money for all, peace for all.
Not forgetting – Debt for all!
Oak, Conference + Budget will be absolutely critical. There is no room for any error whatsoever.
News about the PM’s speech today is not good news. Appears that Government may have completely given up on one important plank of control of the UK economy. Slightly worrying – will wait for the actual words. Cannot trust the media organ that brought me the news this a.m..
Up2snuff
Yes the Tory Conference could be critical and from it a winning party could emerge.
Here is the dream. High drama.
Conference passes a vote of no confidence in Treezer and her fellow remainers and appeasers. She resigns in scenes of humiliation thereby initiating the campaign for a new leader. Potential leaders will not wish her fate to be bestowed on them and will therefore consist of people who desire to serve Britain.
The BBC will fail to understand and report what is going on and will be mocked in the social media.
However, all of this will put the Corbinyte party out of the news whilst a revitalized Conservative will be heading for victory
Dream on.
Up2,
It seems that every concession is being made by us and the eu is giving nothing back.
They appear fully focused on screwing every last cent that they can get from us.
Our negotiators can’t give them enough, 20 billion here, concessions there.
We offered equality for the eu citizens working here but were told to bugger off.
The remoaners keep saying give them more to show goodwill.
It means nothing to the eu all this goodwill crap, they will take take take and give nothing back.
We are in the strongest position yet we appear to be their poodles and eager to please them.
If I was in charge I would walk away this minute and tell them we are going onto WTO.
If they want to trade with us they can give us their proposals.
Why are our lot so submissive and piss poor.
Just get us out….now.
Snuff/GWF/EG
Agreed losing the Appeaser is absolutely essential to any sort of successful Brexit outcome and even then with an unfavourable media it will be a long uphill climb to win any election.
As to why Theresa acts in such a grovelling and servile fashion – It is because Theresa does not believe in brexit and therefore considers it is more important getting hugs and air kisses from Junker than carrying out the will of the British people. Fundamentally she is embarrassed at having to appear to negotiate our withdrawal and therefore at best is only negotiating in a half arsed way.
Drunker and his chums know this and are probably quite enjoying seeing how far they can push her to humiliate herself (and in effect us) in her efforts to appear “reasonable”
To be quite blunt in my uneducated opinion, anything less than a complete failure of negotiations with the EU would indicate to me that we have been sold out or surrendered. I am afraid hard though it may be, only if we revert to WTO rules could an sort of successful outcome be claimed.
“Peace in our time” is totally in-achievable with these preening Euro Tossers.
They might demand half a billion euros to finally let us go, and it wouldn’t surprise me if May agreed to it. But of course it will never go as far as that, because it appears that May & the Remainers in Government have absolutely no intention of ‘properly’ leaving.
To me it just shows what a horribly sham ‘club’ we have been in the last 40 odd years. We’ve been fighting France historically pretty much for ever, and Germany for 100 years- interspersed with with periods of peace and allying against a common enemy. Once the EU finally crumbles I’m sure Germany and France will be at each others throats again. I hope, finally, by that time that we will have completely learned the lesson that appeasement doesn’t get you anywhere.
They are not our friends that’s for sure. I’m a great fan of America, but it’s not always in our best interest to be their obsequious lackeys. And a lot of other anglo ex-commonwealth countries are bland, pc-infected and socialist leaning – where in the world should we go for decent trading partners & potential allies then? (Assuming the Remainers are ousted and we miraculously achieve proper Brexit)

Oh Theresa = how convenient ! Obviously your Brexit failure is now all due ton that pussy grabbing monster in the White House.
I suspect that the US realised long ago that Theresa was not serious about Brexit and carried on regardless. Besides which the Americans have been very aggressive about defending their aviation industry for years.
Hugh Hefner dies, I have a bet with myself that I can find the word “Divisive” in BBC’s write-up. OK it was “Divided” but I win.

BBC man Charlie Stayt is frank about the corporation’s view of Brexit this morning as he introduces a report on the “problems and challenges” of Brexit.
Of course there’s no reason for the blatantly pro-Brussels BBC to consider the advantages and opportunities
BBC TV news going on and on and on about a post office man who had a toy traffic cone removed from his chest after many years. Good for him, seems a nice enough bloke. However, I suspect it had more to do with getting a doctor called Mohammed into the studio.

From John Gatto, it’s not just children that don’t want to know about the real working world anymore. Swap child for adults in the following article …
The children I teach are indifferent to the adult world. This defies the experience of thousands of years. A close study of what big people were up to was always the most exciting occupation of youth, but nobody wants to grow up these days and who can blame them?

The bbc on Facebook (I presume conventional broadcast too) has been a bumper fun pack in what it has deemed worthy today. Here’s one their renowned editorial integrity may not have time for:
Of course, other time honoured bbc techniques are available:
A friend found himself in a discussion, that turned political, with 2 acquaintances – apparently normal, intelligent, educated.
He pointed out that Communism / Socialism / Marxism had never worked, anywhere, ever.
They replied, ‘that’s cos it has to be worldwide to work.’
I find that one of the most chilling statements I’ve ever heard. Can you imagine, a worldwide Soviet Union? Red China? Cambodia? Venezuela? North Korea!?
One huge Gulag ruled over by a satanic Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot or Kim jong-un… in perpetuity, with no hope of salvation from within or without? The closest vison I can imagine to hell on earth.
The interlocutors were apparently young-ish.
So, our great Socialist education system, aided and abetted by the Biased Brainwashing Corporation, is working, and producing such dangerous dolts with short memories and no understanding of history; who will soon be voting Comrade Corbyn and his cadre into power, who can then continue where the great psychopaths of last century left off.
You have been warned.
My studies into the history of 20th century communism are staggering – so much history we never got taught at school, so many uncomfortable truths about socialism and its catastrophic effects on humanity have been hidden from us. When I see Chairman Corbyn and his cronies at their political rally in The People’s Democratic Republic of Brighton I am reminded of the history I’ve been reading – the blood-soaked trail of suffering, pain and misery that communism (the end-goal of all ‘true’ socialism) has wrought on the world. The millions upon millions slain in its name. It’s almost too much to take in – yet almost none of it was ever explained to me as young student.
They say that one doesn’t really get an education until one leaves school. I tend to agree. I started seeking out my own education. I wanted to know the truth about far-off conflicts – Vietnam, Korea, Cambodia, Red China…and I discovered so many well-researched histories – real histories – I’d had no idea existed. Nobody is being taught this stuff any more. Certainly not the ignorant attention-seekers who importune for the likes of Momentum (the communist agitprop wing of the current Labour Party). With no informed understanding of the truly awful history of their favoured ideology, history suggests we might be doomed to make the same mistakes again.
Then again, I can’t help suspecting that this has been the plan all along.
While we are constantly deluged with films and documentaries about the evils of the ‘far-right’ National Socialism, there is no equivalent about the evils of the far-left.
That has created a climate where the beebistan and other opinion formers only need to label any movement with the term ‘far right’ to create a knee-jerk, pavlovian fear in people, while the far-left get away with murder. Hence the msm’s current hysteria about ‘far-right’ movements in Europe and the US, while ignoring the real problems, to which the far-right are but a reaction.
(See Douglas Murray above on primary and secondary problems)
Well that’s cheered me up Charlie no end. On a more serious note though you hit on the real problem that an entire generation are walking into the abyss with no clue as to what hides there.
The ‘everyone must do it’ argument has been used in the UK about ‘comprehensive’ education, a single grammar school will cause that model to fail apparently.
We are seeing this more and more. We have had ‘three shades of grey’ political parties for the last forty years – Junker would like to see that idea extended across the whole of the EU, Europe-wide parties, no funding for sceptics.
Our universities ‘no platform’ and harbour ‘safe spaces’, i.e. only one view is allowed.
I didn’t realise that ‘Uncle Mac’ predicted this when we were children!
Oh give me a home

Sorry. “rather than taking”. Idiot.
Much more Milo is the antidote to Robinsons drivel
I didn’t realise that the Grenfell inquiry had released its findings.
Obviously the Grenfell ‘report’ had nothing to do with Corbyn’s speech and anyone suggesting that is engaging in guerrilla war on the BBC, which is very naughty.

Wonder if the BBC/Associate Press would like to replace “Grooming Gang” with “Sadistic Child Torture Gangs” so we think differently about these cases?
Grooming – brush and clean the coat of (a horse, dog, or other animal). Prepare or train (someone) for a particular purpose or activity.
He (Adil Khan/8 year sentence out in under 4 years) told the court: “They weren’t girls – they were women.”
He (Abdul Aziz/9 years out in under 4 years) ferried the girls as far as Leeds and Bradford and was paid by the stream of men (who will never be arrested) who used the girls for sex, getting £40 for each introduction.
“For the Many (Raped), Not the Few (Convicted)”
“Enough(47 Girls Raped?) is Enough (1400 Girls Raped?)!”
Rochdale child sex trafficker Adil Khan fights deportation {bbc.co.uk 17feb2016}
“A member of child sex grooming gang who got a 15-year-old girl pregnant has claimed he is innocent as he fights deportation from the UK. Adil Khan, 46, maintained there was a “big story” behind his conviction for a series of child sex offences in Rochdale, Greater Manchester. … They have a seven-year-old son, and if his appeal fails he can lodge a further appeal against deportation on the grounds of a breach of his human rights, the right to a family life, under Article Eight of the Human Rights Act.”

The ‘Globalists’ view of why the Visegrad 4 don’t want muslims –
https://www.theglobalist.com/eastern-europe-migration-refugees-gdp-eu/
Note, this is the “real” reason………..
The author, Barry Wood: looks like a jerk and by golly………
(sorry about the last word above, as soon as I realised what I had done there came a knock at the door……)
The old chestnut that Europe ‘needs’ immigration to counter falling birth rates. There is another way to increase the population: good old fashioned sex. Oh, and tax and benefit incentives for larger families. Much cheaper than benefits to millions of low-skilled, often unemployable third worlders and their often huge extended families.
The Real Reason Why Eastern Europe Wants No Refugees: Conclusion {theglobalist.com 28sep2017}
Despite new fault lines from nationalism and emigration, there is little sentiment in Eastern Europe to follow Britain and withdraw from the EU. Simply put, the east derives too many benefits from the EU– from free movement of labor, market access, investment and the inflow of foreign assistance.
… in other news reagarding Poland ….
Poland: Asylum Seekers Blocked at Border {hrw.org 01may2017}
Alla, a 39-year-old woman, from Chechnya, with four children who had made 13 attempts to enter Poland, said: It takes approximately €150 per week for our family to survive here; that includes food and rent and train tickets. Two weeks ago, my relative from Chechnya sent us a package with food to help us last here.
Stop killing 180,000 babies per year.
Stop insisting that women have careers in occupations that they don’t want to do so that by the time they realise that they have no life, no husband and are too old to have a child.
Immigration doesn’t just add the missing children it also brings in the parents and often the grandparents too. All of whom need housing and services now whereas a home-born child makes use of what we already have and gives us time to plan and resource for the future.
If Germany let in 1 million economic migrants to help it’s work force. And those 1 million migrants request that their families can now come to Germany (e.g. mum,dad and sister) x 3. You now have 1 million + 3 million additional members of the population. Will the mum,dad and sister be able to work? You’ve created a 3 million unemployment pool.
Unemployment benefit: the view from Germany: If you think jobseeker’s allowance in Britain is too generous, brace yourself for how the Germans do it
€391 per month – rent and heating is covered for unemployed in Germany.
– Unemployment (not including other benefits) 391 * 12 * 3 million = €14 billion py (and increasing)
– Do they ask economic migrants how many family members they have?
G I can tell that it is absolute rubbish, it is nothing to do with the economics of “low” wages. For example the Czech Republic is home to a large number of Ukrainian migrants predominantly working in the construction sector. Czech politicians and the President make it crystal clear why they dont want non European migrants.

Has anyone here seen the execrable W1A in BBC2??
It is achingly PC ,and thus completely unfunny ,while also managing to be irritatingly self-reverential .
It has the, by now, familiar aspects :
White man-dim , beta-male;
White gay/trans. man- still dim , but just about acceptable(single uptick);
woman-intelligent , but conformist(double uptick);
ethnic woman-sensible ,level-headed ,imaginative(yeh, triple uptick!!!);
I say ,privatise the BBC -then we’ll see whether the general public want to share in the self-loathing , multi-culti Alternative Reality that these smug bustards want to foist onto our screens all the time.
Conan,
I thought w1a along with the olympics one 2012 and the earlier w1a series were comedies.
I thought they were one of the best things the bbc have produced lately.
They are taking the Mickey out of pc.
Just like The Office was a pisstake.
I’d be horrified if it wasn’t supposed to be a comedy.
Hi Emmanuel.
Here’s my take on it ,fwiw.
The BBC are delighting in their own cleverness ,appearing to make fun of their own PC Principles ,but the
the series has become painfully close to the Truth for most viewers.
The perats think they’re being post-ironic , but they’re merely illustrating the weakness at the heart of their new Value System.
Comedy??!!!
More like Tragedy , if you ask me.
But remember , the joke is always on us….as they’re always wasting OUR money!
You’re right, it is painfully close to the truth.
It reminds me of yes Minister.
I hit the report comment button by mistake, sorry.
Don’t know if I can undo it or what happens but if any mod reads this then disregard the report comment.
I have an entirely different take on the programme! W1A is, in effect, a continuous sneer against ultra-PC, management-heavy media organisations, with the BBC a perfect exemplar. Contrary to W1A being PC, the whole point of the program is to pour scorn on PC attitudes, and in this succeeds quite well.
MartinW.
We’ll agree to differ then??
The BBC people I know are completely sold on the whole PC business. All they are good at is sneering and condescension when referring to views/values opposing their own.
I believe your take on the programme is just what they want you to think. BUT……..
they still pay vastly inflated salaries to their hive members, they still propagandise for Liebour , they still pursue pensioners and single-mothers for the TV tax ,and they still pander to Effnik minorities and disrespect the native population, don’t they?
That’s not very subversive ,is it?????
Italy woman marries herself in ‘fairytale without prince’: “My happiness does not depend” on a man, says Laura Mesi, who claims to be the first Italian woman to join a worldwide trend for solo weddings {bbc.co.uk 28sep2017}
To plan a solo wedding, Ms Mesi says you need money, support from those around you – and above all a “pinch of madness”
What does marrying yourself achieve? You are still on your own in the real world, but in your head you have split yourself in two?
All I want is for someone to explain to me what an ‘Italy woman’ is.
This inelegant illiteracy at the BBC drives me mad.
Well spotted .. “Italian mad-woman who owns 3000 cats and whose house smells of urine marries herself so she can claim married couple discount on heating bills”
What did her parents think?
The progress here is that the mad people are not afraid to display their madness anymore. Progress of a sort.

Solo weddings are for wankers
Wonderful!
The road where the multikulti faction are inexorably taking us.
For the first time, the Danish turn out their army to deal with intractable, violent “refugees” aka. muslims.
https://www.10news.one/migrant-crisis-as-rule-of-law-crumbles-denmark-deploys-army-depleting-its-capacity-to-fulfill-nato-obligations/
First steps toward the civil wars in Europe all to plain (for non-multikulti people) to see. My bet is still on Sweden calling for international help to fight the muzzies.
First ‘proper news’ heard on the islamic BBC?………………………
I don’t think so.
A crack appearing in NATO, as it redeploys for civic unrest as Russia tests NATO’s borders. Interesting …
Skyrocketing terror and crime following increased numbers of migrants and refugees from Islamic countries has seriously depleted police resources. Yet another EU country will see a decrease in its ability to fulfill international military obligations as a result of domestic instability.
Rule of law in Denmark is imploding as the police run out of resources. An incident back in 2016 underscores this: A mother in downtown Copenhagen had to witness her son being beating to a pulp by masked Arab migrants. During this attack, the devastated mother called law enforcement, but due to a lack of resources, police could not respond in a timely manner. Her son was attacked because rumour had it that he was from the USA.
…
In this way, the EU’s reckless migrant and refugee policy actually might end up paralyzing NATO, leaving a power vacuum on the global political scene which inevitably will be filled by big players such as Iran, Turkey, Russia, and China.

Bring back, Saddam Hussein, Gadaffi and all the rest of the deposed ‘tyrants’ please.
Incomprehensible though it may seem for the liberal elites of the West including Bliar and Bush, the dictaors of the Middle East held islam and its cult followers in check and under control. Look at Egypt now a dictator regains control.
No current Western elite liberal leader (apart from you-know-who in the US) will be able to control the Islamists when they start working up to fever pitch. Mosul? You ain’t seen nothing yet……………
Have the BBC reported on this?
G
Don’t help the Swedes; they brought it on themselves, and don’t allow them here as refugees because they will wreck our country too.
I agree GWF. There’s naive altruism that may be lived with in small numbers – but not outright insanity. For whatever refugee numbers* we should take in there are plenty of countries ahead of Sweden in the queue.
* the number should be tiny in proportion to the whole population, but alas that’s been a forlorn hope!

She said that she and Mr Obama have learned that part of their “legacy is leading with grace”. (not making America successful. Leading with grace.)

And so it goes on. Decided to have a change yesterday, and watch a BBC2 afternoon programme ! another property show called Tricks of the Trade. Interesting enough. A black couple wanting to revamp their flat, no worries, then on screen up pops Gurmeet (who?), not sure if he was an architect / home stylist/whatever. He looked stylish enough in his long Nehru jacket and turban worn in an edgy way, but I did wonder if I’d slipped into an Asian channel by mistake. Perhaps West London now has a proliferation of ‘Gurmeets’, and I wonder if media training schools are now white free zones.
Mean while in India … White British actresses told to leave Bollywood{telegraph mar2010}
British actresses who appear in Bollywood films are being targeted in a hate campaign by one of India’s most feared political leaders. (Raj Thackeray’s Maharashtra Navnirman Sena)
Stars including Alice Patten, the daughter of Lord Patten of Barnes, and Hazel Crowney, a former model from Kent, have been accused of stealing jobs from local girls
“The reason producers pick white girls is because a lot of them have better figures and are willing to expose them,” he said.
“If you need a bikini shot, not many Indian girls are willing to turn up in a string bikini. But most white girls will not have an issue with that. Titillation has been an important part of Bollywood.”
– See title of article ‘told to leave’ but in the article they have been set on by a hate campaign by a ‘party which inspires terror’, which is slightly different to the language ‘told to leave’.
– Terrorised would be better word.
How far we have fallen – “Someone had photos taken of their house to go on a website for sale. The book Satanic Verses was removed from the bookshelf least if offended anyone.” in 2017.
But hey, in Sep2017 women are allowed to drive by June 2018 in Saudi Arabia because the ALL male House of Saud allowed it. These men will congratulate themselves on how progressive they are …
Notice how countries have a “+” symbol to show we have no idea how many are executed really. 1000+ in China.

A country should take migrants for these reasons:-
a) They can offer skills / work and pay taxes – providing they will NOT be a detriment to that country and there is a national, economic reason.
b) The country OFFERS to give them asylum – providing they will NOT be a detriment to that country and they do not just sneak in, making demands and with zero papers.
c) There is no c)
Nipped onto the BBC News website this lunchtime to see what hobbyhorses are being ridden in earnest today. Several to choose from, it appears.
And what should flash on to the bottom of the screen but this essential Breaking News:
Two neo-Nazi groups added to banned list
Well, that sounds dreadful, I’m sure. But I can’t help thinking there really isn’t much market for that kind of thing up here, and wonder just how many are in that group that it merits breaking into every story that anyone may be reading on the News website.
I strongly suspect it’s one man and his Rottweiler blown out of all proportion to attempt to make us believe they’re just as much as threat as the “tiny radicalised minority” of the millions who follow the Religion of Peace. I wonder what they’ve done to be tarred as the same kind of person who blows up teenage girls coming out of a concert? Put pork pies and sausage rolls in their children’s lunch box? Threatened to bring a rasher or two to the annual mosque barbecue? We may never be told – and if we are, can we believe it?
What made me laugh is that according to the BBC “NS131 (National Socialist Anti-Capitalist Action) ” is an “alias” for a “far-right” group. So let’s get this straight :
Socialist = “far-right”
Anti-Capitalist = “far-right”
Woah, slow down BBC. I’m not sure I can keep up with your doublethink here.
“The DPRK is the Juche-oriented socialist state which embodies the idea and leadership of Comrade Kim II Sung, the founder of the Republic and the father of socialist Korea.”
… Socialist, “a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or regulated by the community as a whole.” …
Hoeryong concentration camp (or Haengyong concentration camp) is a prison camp in North Korea. The official name is Kwalliso (penal labour colony) No. 22.

Extreme human rights violations including routine torture, forced labor and human medical experiments have been attested to by defectors previously employed at the camp {wiki}
A counter-terrorism chief said the police were taking the threat of neo-Nazism as seriously as that of jihadist terrorism. {independent 28sep2017}
“The problem is that as soon as the Government proscribes an organisation, they change the name and there’s very little law enforcement can do.”
… a little piece of history for the police and the BBC…
“… they may say one thing to you in front of CNN, but I can assure you behind your backs in every Masjid* (Mosque) and Community Centre. They are standing with their Muslim brothers and sisters saying ‘we hope the Americans and British are pushed out of countries and we can implement the Sharia’. This is an Islamic obligation for us to support our brothers around the world. Our land is one. Our War is one. Our Peace is one. Our honour is one.” – Anjem Choudary {youtube oct2010}
– 7 YEARS AGO! @8:40 “… Sharia has a solution to every (man made) problem..”
What a load of shite.
Zero chance of any ‘Right Wing’ terrorism, just like a white man taking a bomb on a plane.
No doubt Maxycnut will be along shortly with all the counter evidence deflecting attention from his favoured victim group.
Easier for the old bill to infiltrate a white group than the Islamic lot I suppose -,and all you have to do is buy em a few beers and gee them up a bit to get the evidence needed to “ do something “ .
They haven’t managed to police the way people think yet though – however much msm tries.

BBC Question Time Panels Dominated by Remainers
Ah… but… like BBC producers and hosts, they leave their politics at the door.

Or DNA is corrupted.

Or something.

The angry woman was right. It’s strategically insane to play poker while revealing your hand to everybody at the table. #bbcqt #brexit {twitter}
The channel 4 special composed of supposed brexiters tonight was, I guess, an attempt by c4 to evidence that they had given air time to brexiters when most of the time is the usual remainers being wheeled out – and their favourite elder statesmen ( still alive ) tories like Clarke hezza and major .
The guru Murphy did a good job of muddying the waters and the production bods did a good job of getting a few ordinary joes who couldn’t get their sentences together . It was about as helpful as a Corbin speech.

I know some don’t like these shares as they come from even further left than the BBC, but Nick Robbo seems to get worked up anyway and so totally worth it.
To keep giving frauds a platform to sell more fraud or hate, to give a pedophile a safe-space, to pay opinionated people large wages who are supposed to be socialists but thrive on capitalism, to forget the 71 genders when drawing contracts, to pay grown ups who phone people and talk about having sex with their granddaughter and then invite them back for more pay, to let Directors claim £34 pounds on expenses when they earn 450k, to give these people on high wages free pass to opera and nights out when they are supposed to be supporting the arts, to write news that hides details, to over use a term like right-wing and forget the left-wing, to give Labour an easier ride, to drop the term Islam and Muslim, to make everything political. Is to be the BBC.
p.s. I have evidence of all of the above.
“There was a time when politicians resented being held to account by the BBC. Now the #BBC resents being held to account by new media.” {twitter – Media Lens}
I believe that it is still vital, and we should proudly tell our audience that the BBC is not owned, run or controlled by the government, media tycoons, profit-seeking businesses or those pursuing a political or partisan agenda.
It is staffed by people who – regardless of their personal background or private views – are committed to getting as close to the truth as they can, and to offering their audience a free, open and broad debate about the issues confronting the country.
They aim to deliver what Carl Bernstein called “the best obtainable version of the truth”.
