High Summer . The bubble is away or writing columns about failed air travel. But the BBC carries on showing its bias . Perhaps it gets a bit easier for us because the interns are in charge ….

A classic bit of BBC bias with it’s headline “Maxine Peake: Actress hits back over NHS ad ‘hypocrisy’ claim”
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-45082137
The nauseating champagne-swilling leftie with the exaggerated gritty northern accent is a favourite with the BBC.
Instead of leading with a more accurate headline of “Maxine Peake accused of hypocrisy over NHS ad” they have to try and make it sound like the claim is false by putting the word hypocrisy in inverted commas hence implying that she is the victim. It naturally follows that our spunky little heroine will fight back against such an unfair claim from the far right.
Turns out of course that the claim that she was a hypocrite was true and she only donated her fee to charity after she was found out……but the BBC forgot to mention that bit.
She could have used her “influence ” to get the money refunded to the NHS from the agencie’s coffers if she really tried, instead of just saying it was in the agencie’s preagreed budget so nothing could be done, yeah right, did you even try ? nope
The liberal elite want all the buzz and status of seeming virtuous without actually doing the hard stuff that selflessness entails, such as sharing your money. They should be judged on their actions and not their cheap words; there tends to be a chasm between the two. Has a single lefty advocating for open borders housed an asylum seeker yet?
So I’m back i watch so little of the BBcs output I find it difficult to comment as I’ve not watched anything. However I was watching BBc Breakfast this morning and the ongoing story of the “housing crisis” They read out one viewers comments. He basically suggested there should be a cap on the population of the UK So restrict the amount of children people can have. Oh hang on back in 1980 the population is put at around 56 million, these days it’s supposed to be around 65 million although I would have thought it was larger. I seem to remember being told our population was falling Any mention immigration may have played some part in the massive population increase. Of course not,
Whose children would he cap? (Of course, over the years, we have destroyed millions of ours.)
Al Beeb Business Live gleefully reports the pound extends fall because Liam Fox says no-deal Brexit is likely.
But do they report this exciting news about the economy?……………

‘Facebook and Apple ban BBC.’
The BBC has been banned for promoting dangerous conspiracies such as: open borders work; all cultures are equal, especially the extremely violent one; the ‘gender pay gap’; men and women are the same.
“These are dangerous lunatics spewing divisive hatred which is degrading the greatest civilisation in history. They have caused unimaginable pain to ordinary, decent British folk and must be denied a platform.”

If only!
It is so Orwellian. If he is just some unhinged lunatic why do they feel so threatened by him?
It really shows how corrupt our media has become that the two rogue eccentrics who run Info Wars are more credible than the MSM.
Orwellian yes, apparently all opinions are equal but some are more equal than others, and some should not even be allowed, and you can be jailed without a proper trial for expressing them now : THAT is Orwellian or even Kafkaesque ?
Quentin Somerville interviewed the two ISIS terrorists being held by Kurds in Muslim land . It’s a shame they are both still alive and it’s a shame that al beeb should spend money to interview them and give them publicity .
In different circumstances if Somerville had met these monsters they’d have chopped his head off in front of a camera for Muslims to masterbate over . Why not just drop a drone on them ?
The BBC headed up their interview with the two moptops , by saying that they questioned the British Government in their decision.
Much as Crippen, Haigh, Christie, Brady, Huntley and the Krays surely would have loved to do, if only a BBC stain had asked them about their cases.
Only the BBC would give a damn-and, blow me if they`re not Peter and Gordon or the coming successors to the Chuckle Brothers.
if only Cliff had had a brother who`d behead or rape eh?…
Or better still why not bring them over to help run the BBC diversity department?
I’m sure some enrichment will work wonders for the BBC presenters with a nice new Halloween special on presenters without heads ?
It may be worth finding out what search parameters are being applied to this site I was in an office a while ago tinkering about and their website locked me out when I tried to have a quick look on here at lunchtime due to the site displaying “intolerance ” hmm well intolerance has many meanings, such as the unwillingness to tolerate a supposed unbiased national broadcaster with a pro remain anti trump pro muslim agenda but to ban people from this discussion using that word is rather insidious

If you do a google it readily shows up – for the time being -but it can only be a matter of time until any remaining free speech is suppressed on the grounds of ‘ public cohesion and community safety ‘ ‘ same with detention orders issued by a politician to intern potential threats to public cohesion .
I bet they’ve got draft laws ready to go when needed…
What I mean is what labels are attached to the site which allows it to be suppressed by some company servers ? and who provides these labels such as “intolerance” this word clearly appeared and used to ban these employees from accessing the site
Annu I suppose there is some bit of the DCMS ? ( goebells free speech section ) which blocks porn and other sites which the State doesn’t like and other IT managers copy the list
Perhaps we shouldn’t ask which commissar decides what is banned in case they do a quick trial with reporting restrictions again.
Heard the BBC separate out last years drug deaths in terms of the recreational users -as opposed to the addicts.
I gather that neither will make the BBC question any effort to control or ban “recreational” drugs. But sensed some refusal to blame either, surely addicts are and were recreational-when does the BBC move the druggies from one category to another?
Ask Harrabin, he`s got a How Annual from 1983 somewhere.
As for Brighton-how come smoking is deemed “baad” by the lefties and their NHS…but AIDS is requiring of all manner of funds because its a “good” thing.
Aren`t both due to self harming and destructive, stupid lifestyles?
Come on Harrabin…give us a clue.
I wonder what the statistics are for BBC staff using ‘recreational’ drugs .
Ask maxi.
He’s certainly high when commenting on here.
I wonder if the Info Wars purge will backfire? Like with Tommy Robinson tyrants are using heavy handed tactics to silence messengers because they cannot argue with the message. People will see what is going on and will not like it. All this having moaned about interference in elections!
Rather than consider what they were doing wrong to cause Brexit and Trump, they just want to bully us back to the good old days when we voted as we were told to. No mea culpa or vows to change their ways, just fury that we have not done as we were told.
It makes me even more determined to oppose them.
Just subscribed to Infowars on Bitchute. I don’t agree with all Alex Jones has to say. But I resent having big tech decide what I can and cannot see. They are not by any means the arbiters of truth and free speech.
Work this one out.
Shreyas Royal aged 9 was born in India and has lived in London since the age of 3. His father Jitendra Singh is an IT project manager and his 5 year visa expires next month. His visa would be extended if he earned £120,000 per year but he doesn’t, so he is now being (as the press say) ‘kicked out’, back to India.
Shreyas is apparently a child chess prodigy, and there is uproar by various factions that he and his family are being sent home, and they are feeling aggrieved, not because of the viza expiration, but BECAUSE this little boy has represented England at tournaments !!! In a letter to Sajid Javid MP’s have said that “the UK would lose an exceptional talent if this family were to leave”. There are other quotes of a similar vein. WTF !
We are now at the point where we have people (babies or not) representing the UK who are not citizens, certainly not born here, and yet moves are being made to get them to continue living here. Why ??? Haven’t we had enough of aliens using our flag to improve their lot, the lionisation of Mo Farrer has taught us nothing – we house them, pay them, feed them, teach them, and when they’ve attained their glory, we knight them, and then they sod off and live and pay taxes elsewhere.

Hopefully because he is young the cost of deporting him will be quite low – I’d make they pay for it themselves if possible . No exceptions . Let he be India’s gain . Tough eh?
Cricketer Ben Stokes ‘mocked gay men before nightclub fight, BBC headline, well you can hit someone so hard you break their eye socket but this does not warrant a headline in BBC land
Spot on,
During the affray, one of the culprits, a chap called Ryan Ali, hit one of the gay men with a bottle, so a more appropriate headline would have been “Muslim man attacks gay man with a bottle”.
That didn’t seem to suit BBC for some reason.
Annu
I honestly can’t understand why this is number 1 national news . I suppose it’s interesting to cricket people and queers but I fall into neither category . So it means nothing . Shame TR didn’t get national news coverage during his time under State torture .
Wonder how many muslims at the gay pride parade, worth asking the BBC it might just shut them up for a while, another classic BBC tumbleweed moment, not a rainbow burkha in sight, very similar to Luton carnival, one very interesteing complete and utter failure of a certain part of the kommunihi (or rather their own kommunihi) to take part or attend, too many scantily clad females dancing and of course music, soon to be banned if they have their way I suspect
“…music, soon to be banned if they have their way I suspect.”
All except the call to payer, of course – which some bloke called Barry Soetoro once described as “the sweetest sound I know.” I wonder what ever happened to him?
You mean the Kenyan muslim?
I hear he spends his days sniping at a President who’s not afraid to tell it like it is.
C_M
“call to payer”!
That call would be to the viewers.
Has the rainbow burqa yet been created?
If not, why ever not?
Muslims are well up for this kind of thing.
Matching sword handle would set it off just grandly.
Suppose the anorexic freak show deviants who pass for models couldn`t look pouty enough behind the veils though, and you`d not know that they were unsmiling sneering bitches like the usual weirdies at Fashion Week. Just their eyes would have to do all the work, whereas Roger Moore could , at least use his eyebrows as well.
I want to know where the black and brown are on the rainbow flag-that`s racist in opinion-bring your black and brown sharpies round with you and insist that they too get onto those flags.
They like that, and thank you for this…er, yes…
“Rainbow burkha” – there’s a thought. Brilliant!
Al Beeb tells us that the US is to fully enforce restored Iran sanctions.
Riots in Iran against the regime? Will it bring the despotic and dark age government down and see a return to a modern westernised and democratic society?
Does our Tweeezer side with the The US or The EU?
Germany and France have much trade to loose with Iran while we are leaving the EU.

You got a reply to your letter from the Prisons ‘minister yet?
Maybe he is too busy planning for next attack on TR by their British State
When is someone going to get rid of the arch knave of all europhiles, Mr. Mark Goldman Sachs Carney. Every single time he opens his mouth it is to denigrate the UK and the UK economy.
He has done nothing to support the British economy since he began his governorship, AT ALL
Everything has been pro EU
I understand he wants to be PM of Canada…. I suppose that sums him up

Very interesting GW.
Whether it`s poetic license of impressionism, even surreal stream of consciousness howlings?
It`s never “news ” as anybody would know it anymore.
When was the last time the legacy media gave us a story that mattered? They`re co-conspirators with the Far Left and Islam.
Truly the enemy of the People and of our freedoms. As Mr Trump tells them
The answers themselves eagerly awaited.
Though the potential fun from them trying not to answer may be fun in a Matrix-glitchy way 🙂
This did prove interesting :
Dear Bedfordshire Police,
During a police documentary called “Traffic Cops” shown at 3pm on 23 May 2016 on the W TV channel there featured a car chase where a youth decamped from a stolen vehicle and escaped.
A Muslim officer who seemed quite proactive was sick during the incident and he put this down to fasting during Ramadan which affected his performance.
Please provide an documents relating to any feedback following this incident and also any risk assessments concerning fasting Muslim officers on patrol during the month of Ramadan.
Yours faithfully,
E. Sewell
Independent Police Support Group
Following your request, searches were conducted at Bedfordshire Police for information relating to the series Traffic Cops that you have watched and requested further detail on.
Various enquiries have been made across the force to see what information is held, but we have been unable to find any recorded information. We would need to be able to identify the incidents involved in the series and then try to determine which ones relate to your request. However, we have been unable to find any record of this and as such we cannot provide the information you have requested.
They obviously failed to spot the TV cameras and sound engineers following their officers and sitting in the back of their cars and the subsequent documentary on TV, what a bunch of Sherlock Holmes we have in Bedfordshire.
The bbc fact-checking unit, I believe now under Fran the Tick, may struggle with this. But perhaps not going near is safer. Those utter tools of the state in government should drag them there to explain.

Well we fully expect an article about the radicalisation of Boris and how its not really his fault, or not, its only terrorists of a certain religion who are defended in this way, which is also rather insidious as it logically assumes they are not quite intelligent enough to form their own opinions, but also dictates that those like TR have no excuse as he is given no such leeway

If Trump had done this they would all be shouting for impeachment:
Artfully dodging the question of whether he was personally responsible for the most dramatic increase in mass imprisonment in human history, President William Jefferson Clinton left his interviewers momentarily flustered. The interviewers, prominent members of the African American journalist organization, the Trotter Group, pressed the president on what he had done to address the problem of disproportionate African American incarceration—a problem that has devastated African American communities across the nation. Of immediate concern was his policies vis-a-vis the disparate sentences meted out for those convicted of crack cocaine, who tended to be African American, and powder cocaine, who were overwhelmingly white.
And this is off the BBC radar for some strange reason:
President Bill Clinton’s decision to lie under oath about his consensual affair with White House intern Monica Lewinsky almost forced him from the presidency.
But allegations made by four other women that Clinton either sexually assaulted or harassed them have done little to discredit him among his supporters. Clinton has denied all of the allegations against him, including those made by four other women who allege they had consensual extramarital relationships with him over the years.
As a national spotlight is being shined on sexual assault and harassment following a flood of accusations of misconduct against dozens of prominent men in Hollywood, the media, and politics, Democrats and others on the left are beginning to reexamine their response to Clinton’s alleged misdeeds.
Bill Clinton suggests Donald Trump is a member of ‘the dictators club’
Bill Clinton impeachment charges ‘nothing compared to Trump case’
Monica Lewinsky says Bill Clinton sex scandal made Fox News
“Everybody in the mainstream press is calling all of Bill Clinton’s crimes infidelities,” Kathleen Willey, one of the women who has accused Clinton of harassment, told Fox News host Sean Hannity in October 2016. “Rape, sexual assault, and sexual harassment are not infidelities. They are crimes and they are misdemeanors.”
And yet we have had the UK police and London authorities approving week after week last year of wimmin anti Trump marches and again this year, all highly publicised, especially by our national broadcaster, while they are all happy and very keen to witch hunt any and every apparent sexual transgressor, this one, serial sex offender and his wife who has attacked the victims, has somehow slipped their attention ? I fail to understand, or maybe I should become a conspiracy theorist because the evidence is mounting
I am prepared to share Mark Byford’s pension…
As soon as I heard the “as of right” I gave up…rights vs responsibilities, the latter no longer matter, the only platform I hear is the one lowered from the lorry delivering my unemployed neighbours Asda groceries three times a week, despite all day to themselves for years on end now they fail to manage a trip to the shops, and child delivered to school by taxi every day with an escort so their clear platform to proceed works well for them
Hope all those Red Cross parcels that Grenfell Towers can`t use will go to your neighbours to counter the pandemic of “holiday hunger”-where all those poor kids seem unable to get any cereal or sugar, fags and Red Bull.
I see a charity waddle around the supermarket skip for red nose day in a souped up disability scooter.
AND-what about bobbling?
You may laugh-but the adverts in the 70s warned me that incorrect washing of school uniforms and the wrong powder led to clothes suffering from “bobbling”.
Who`s going to tell Roger Harrabin, Winifred Robinson and Stella Creasey or whoever?
Bobbling Awareness , let`s murder this scourge before they sell the uniforms for drugs next week.

Doobster78,
Could be Boris watches Pat Condell. It was the eminent Condell who said he’s heard a young girl tell her mother that a couple of Muslim women shrouded from head to toe in black sacks with slits for their eyes looked like “letter-box ladies.”
RE Boris and his ‘islamophobic’ comparison of the veiled ones with letter boxes featured on Radio4 6pm news.
The letter box comparison is quite mild. I have been known to compare them with the Nazgul (ghoul?) in Lord of the Rings, or the death eaters in Harry Potter. That’s what they remind me of. Not in earshot of the MCB or the BBC though. I’m a coward.
Surely 99.99999999% of normal women would never want to wear anything like that? I’m trying to work out the psychology in terms of dissonance reduction. I think the acceptance of this as normal, right, permissible, admirably religious etc is desperately worrying.
And for anyone who says they don’t mind the hijab blah blah . . .
https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/12804/hijab-chronicles
The burka is a flat out symbol of female oppression – period.
It’s a deliberate attempt or rather snub to a host culture that the individuals underneath have no intention of interacting, embracing or assimilating with a host culture.
And finally, if wearing it is a choice that so many Muslim apologists try to claim, why does it only come in black?
https://www.thenation.com/article/hillary-clinton-does-not-deserve-black-peoples-votes/
Why Hillary Clinton Doesn’t Deserve the Black Vote
We should have seen it coming. Back then, Clinton was the standard-bearer for the New Democrats, a group that firmly believed the only way to win back the millions of white voters in the South who had defected to the Republican Party was to adopt the right-wing narrative that black communities ought to be disciplined with harsh punishment rather than coddled with welfare. Reagan had won the presidency by dog-whistling to poor and working-class whites with coded racial appeals: railing against “welfare queens” and criminal “predators” and condemning “big government.” Clinton aimed to win them back, vowing that he would never permit any Republican to be perceived as tougher on crime than he.
Just weeks before the critical New Hampshire primary, Clinton proved his toughness by flying back to Arkansas to oversee the execution of Ricky Ray Rector, a mentally impaired black man who had so little conception of what was about to happen to him that he asked for the dessert from his last meal to be saved for him for later. After the execution, Clinton remarked, “I can be nicked a lot, but no one can say I’m soft on crime.”
Beeboid Jonathon King and the police/court system
BBC national world headline is still about someone who said something nasty about a gay person while drunk, yet we never ever heard anything about the following:

Police commissioner objected to gay sauna license because it’s ‘too close to a mosque’
Nick Duffy
2nd June 2016, 12:04 PM
A Conservative Police and Crime Commissioner tried to block a sex license for a gay sauna – because it’s too close to a local mosque.
Greenhouse Health Club, which has operated in Luton for nearly two decades, had been seeking a license that would allow it to sell sex toys and show adult films.
However, the owners have now withdrawn the application, after encountering strong resistance from local residents and the newly-elected Police and Crime Commissioner.
Bedfordshire PCC Kathryn Holloway, a former TV presenter who has no first-hand experience of policing, told Luton Today that the license was inappropriate because the venue was too close to a local mosque – a five minute walk away.
She warned that granting the license would cause “widespread offence and very deep concern”, and that if it was granted “a number of potential policing issues may arise” due to a “very significant Luton mosque” based five minutes away.
We may never know just why a gay sauna was not allowed to be put up within a few minutes walk of the local mosque.
If the BBC have anything to do with it, we never will either.
Three Counties Radio/ Iain Lee etc?
Radio silence as ever from our fearless BBC.
Brighton a new landfill site for all those horrid plastics lube tubes, I note,
Can`t we bring in loads of houseboys to clean up after our gay friends?
By the way-Pride is one of the seven deadly sins-so why the left and gay seem to be proud of it -well, need we ask?
Be nice if the left and gay poster boy, Owen Jones, was sent a tweet asking him to clear up Brighton Beach after his pals, thus showing his solidarity (a word he knows well) with the creatures of the sea !
BRISSLES,
That’s homophobic, xenophobic, islamaphobic, soap-aphobic, work-aphobic, deodorant-aphobic, door-knob-aphobic, mushy-pea-aphobic and budgie-aphobic.
LGBT plastic isn’t the same.
Someone from the BBC told me, so it must be true.
We know exactly why : immigrant mob rule and local authortiy terrified of black people complaining which is racist in itself, many white women and girls sexually assaulted by our muslim friends but action was very forthcoming when the following happened::
Luton: local Sikh community protesting over ‘sex attack police failures’
Police said they were negotiating with the protesters staging the “sit down” protest outside the Buxton Road police station.
It comes after a 19 year-old Sikh woman, who has not been identified, was reportedly beaten and sexually assaulted in the Bedfordshire town by a “Muslim man”.
On Wednesday night, Bedfordshire Police confirmed they were “in talks” with the protesters to try and “resolve the situation” amid fears of rising tensions.
Reports suggested that more than 300 locals were involved in the protest because of “lack of action” from police over Monday’s attack
Tommy Robinson and his protests get treated rather differently
A
Police and Crime Commissioner
Another of Call Me Dave’s hare brained ideas.
Where is he now, hugging hoodies?
Apologies to lagomorphs.
BBC quoting the extremist MCB, islamist Warsi and Finsbury Park Mosque as they attack Boris for his all too true comments about the burkha. Where is the discussion about the substance of his comments…the inhumane treatment of women under Islam? Clearly the sound and fury is mean to divert attention and the BBC happily goes along with that…not least of course because it’s Boris, Brexiteer and possible Tory leader, whom they constantly attack and smear as they try to stop him becoming leader….who may well make the Tories ‘popular’.
Another attack is blaming him for the situation of Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe…
”While serving as foreign secretary, Mr Johnson faced criticism after telling a parliamentary committee that Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe had been in Iran to train journalists, contradicting the claim that she was on holiday when she was arrested’
Boris was right…he was talking about her original arrest in Iran…arrested because she worked for the BBC’s Media Action which trains journalists in foreign countries to udermine and oppose certain types of government…any wonder the Iranians consider her a ‘spy’? The BBC of course refuses to acknowledge their own part in her unpleasant situation.
BBC’s Media Action which trains journalists in foreign countries to udermine and oppose certain types of government well they are doing the same in the USA and UK
The bbc has an inglorious history with women it highlights, especially in certain parts of the world.
The simple point is, we have a kommunihi within us, a small minority that wish to push their intolerances and foreign anti british demands upon us. The very intolerances many of them have run away from, because most of them are only brave in a mob, tribal silly clothes that separate them from the country that has accepted them, and that have no religious significance burt serve to alienate themselves from British culture, . They will decimate western culture due to our very tolerance and their intolerence, any examination of the cultures and practices and vicious laws of the places they have come from only serves to demonstrate what is still in these peoples minds which they are ignorant enough to want to perpetuate wherever they go in conflict with any place that has the grace to accept them

Tommy Robinson and his protests get treated rather differently
So: “Hundreds of members of the Luton Sikh community protested outside local police station amid claims police failed to properly investigate a sex attack on a young woman.”
Quite a hot story one might have thought, involving assault on a young woman, inter-communal tensions, protests, police reluctance to investigate a crime properly, etc.
Yet strangely not covered by the beeb at all on their Fake news webshite.
Why didn’t the police investigate properly and why didn’t the beeb cover it?
Surely not because the alleged perpetrator was muslim?
It was covered by every newspaper, the BBC, ITV, Sky News..
Maybe if you checked the story, you will notice its from 2012! Every news outlet covered it at the time.

It might help this site if you didn’t post 6 year old stories attempting to make them sound like today’s news.
BBC news this evening.
Large segment on the worldwide increase of devastating wild fires.
The way this has been portrayed, is the entirety result of global warming.
Complete with some shrill professor informing us that this will be more common as the globe warms up. No questioning from the BBC. Just taken as fact.
So there we are.
Again a bit research blows holes in this.
Most wild fires are caused by humans and the huge increase in damage and death is solely due to the increase human population.
Wild fires have been happening ever since humans discovered how make fire.
Humans changing landscapes and planting of non native species have also had a major effect. Take the 1991 Oakland hills firestorm, a calamitous and swift-moving blaze that killed 25 people, destroyed roughly 3,000 homes and 2,000 vehicles, and caused an incredible $1.5 billion in damages. Eucalyptus trees being a major factor in the spread of the fire. Portugal’s deadliest wildfires. Last year, 115 people were killed and 500,000 hectares of land scorched. The poor emergency response was largely to blame. But so, too, were eucalyptus trees.
Closer to home. Two men have been arrested for starting the moorland fires in Lancashire that burned for two weeks last month. Incidentally, most moorland in England and Wales is man made.
So. We finally have a the first hot summer since 1976 (though not as hot and prolonged) and the BBC are able to claim that this the direct effect of man made climate change.
Weather, or the effects of human modifying the environment obviously have nothing to do with this. Again fake news by omission…
1) climate and weather two different things, so any referall of this heatwave to climate is absolute bollocks
2) climate may be warming but no definitive evidence this this human related, and limited evidence anyway recently. due to lack of long term records, we can refer to only secondatry data such as pictures (ice on the Thames etc) and journals and sometimes pollen evidence of what may have thrived in the past
3) inrease in climate temp will cool uk due to north atlantic drift (gulf stream) being diluted due to melting polar caps introducing more water into the atlantic, and then failing thus reducing warming effect on uk and we are on a similar latitude to canada so go figure what our climate will be…
its ok i am not a professor but have a bsc hon in environmental science and anyone knows this or should do if they are producing BBC news unless they have a political agenda to spout or spent their study years playing video games, running around the student union with placards and copiying their mates notes to get a third, you know who you are….
Mainstream climate science is a cargo cult science. It’s an industry worth billions. Those with fingers in the pie will not let this go so easily.
Ah, but what do you think of the possibility of Alternative 3?
At least that was admitted to be a hoax!
Climate is complex and little understood and I am not a climate scientist. Neither are most climate scientists. There is no guarantee temperatures will rise. Lots of data is extrapolated in the Arctic and the Antarctic and over large areas of the oceans. Furthermore the role of clouds is barely understood. So what I think about option 3 is academic. What I do know is that there are many variables that have been discarded because they are politically incorrect and there is an awful lot of corruption involved. For example we saw the climategate episode several years back where we discovered the entire ‘science’ of climate is effectively controlled by a small clique and they have an agenda.
People like Lindzen have been libelled and their voices silenced. Lindzen is the Duesberg of the climate science industry. Both were leading scientists in their field and both were treated disgracefully by corrupt cliques who used their power to earn billions.
As a scientist (NOT a climatologist), it annoys me that ‘global warming’ has gone from a scientific hypothesis to a religion.
The difference, is that a scientific hypothesis is always open to revision and debate, that’s the point it’s a ‘theory’ which can still be improved upon, or proven wrong. Hence Darwin’s THEORY of evolution, Einstein’s THEORY of relativity etc… Science is about putting a hypothesis out there, e.g. “I hypothesise that the climate of the entire Earth is getting warmer”, and then attempting to prove, or disprove it, via research and experimentation. Scientists are encouraged to question the validity of the hypothesis and test it’s soundness, debate (sometimes heated) is to be expected, but doubts are normal and permitted.
In comparison, a religion works on the basis of belief, e.g. “I believe that God created the world in seven days”, belief is not at all scientifically rigorous, it can’t be proven, or disproven, it simply IS, and in many cases (admittedly not all) it is considered blasphemous to doubt, or question the ‘word of God’… and doing so can result in rather nasty things happening to you.
See what I mean, thanks to the hysteria of the MSM (especially the BBC) Global Warming is now religion, not science.
As an Engineer (NOT a climatologist), it annoys me that EVERYTHING to do with the weather is immediately viewed through the holy prism of the religion of climate change. It rains – ‘cos of Global Warming, it doesn’t rain – ‘cos of Global Warming, we have a heatwave (this summer) – ‘cos of Global Warming, we have a cold snap (this spring) – ‘cos of Global Warming. It’s illogical, nonsensical, irrational, contradictory… and all of those go against the kind of common sense on which engineering is based.
Therefore, not only has global warming become a religion, it’s also now surrounded by superstition.
For all I know global warming MIGHT be real, without open debate and a fair and impartial exchange of ideas and unbiased data how will we ever know? With any scientist, weatherman, or informed amateur who DARES to question the religion of global warming, as graven in stone by Saint David of Attenborough, or to ridicule the superstitious rantings of the BBC ‘Science team’ – “the heat, it’s an omen of DOOM, DOOM I TELL YE!”, being stoned to death among howls of rage, I can’t really see how we can ever get to the bottom of what is really happening and do anything about it (if we even need to, or can).
Merely on a logical basis I am opposed to unnecessary pollution and population growth, regardless. I think most sane people would agree on that, and if we tackled those better at least we’d know any global warming going on wouldn’t be anthropomorphic in origin – don’t really see what we could do about anything resulting from natural processes – volcanic, sun activity etc…
Well we have a possibly warming planet, international media that has decided they no longer like democratic votes in the UK and USA, and the islamification of Europe, these are likely to entice me to attend a bus stop at the moon waiting for a shuttle to anywhere else
Avoid the BBC Ark.
Wildfires are NOT increasing, and they certainly ain’t down to global warming…

I thought they had video footage on the news of people restarting the fires that we had on the moors recently.
The heatwave ends today. Global temperatures are still 0.3C above average but falling. Galactic Cosmic Ray levels are increasing. The increases in the Earths cloud albedo can be seen on the CERES (Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System) and MODIS (Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer) satellite instruments. The predicted end of the Pause/Hiatus/Peak is for 2018, after a 22 year Hale Magnetic Solar Cycle. Thermal lags are the main problem for Astronomers who therefore wont go as far as predicting the exact start of Global cooling. I am told that Atlantic cooling produced a stable transfer of heat to Britain that caused the heatwave. Also, because of a 28 day lag, I think 19th July is the hottest day of the year on average. It then gets cooler and cooler as the BBC’s Global warming alarmism gets less and less.
Richard,
BBC’s Global Warming alarmism is alive and well this morning I’m afraid – they are all over this and have swallowed it hook, line and sinker:-
https://wattsupwiththat.com/2018/08/06/claim-planet-now-at-risk-of-heading-toward-hothouse-earth-state/
Yes, I notice it’s the lead article on their website at the moment. Curious headline though – Risk of ‘hothouse Earth’ despite C02 emission cuts.
It’s almost like the C02 nonsense has little or no impact on the heat doesn’t it. There’s so many things wrong with the global warming, climate change bollocks but the biggest for me has always been the spectacular arrogance to assume that the climate in the late 20th Century is exactly the climate that the Earth is meant to be.
That somehow something that has been constantly changing over millions of years would have reached it perfect zenith during the time of humans. That the climate as it is now mustn’t change and is how it should always be.
Staggering arrogance.
Letter boxes… bank robbers… You tell ’em Boris!
And now sit back and wait for the shitstorm of outrage (and faux outrage) from the lib-left, the beeb, the muslim Council of Britain and assorted race-baiters, virtue-signallers and the Permanently Offended Community.

“If we value rural Britain, we can’t build houses all over it”
Simon Jenkins
Article 100% full of concern about our once green and pleasant land.
Which naturally leaves 0% of space to mention the unmentionable.
Fortunately comments were allowed and the Jenkins omission has been noted, in Spades.
Already underway Vlad. Just flicked onto GMB ( I know, sorry) . They have the banner “developing story” so it must be something big. Alas, no. It’s Boris Johnson under fire for letter box jibe. Kate garraway and the token , box ticking Ravir Singh showing pure, unadulterated faux outrage. Yet again, completely ignoring the mood of the nation who whole heartedly agree with Boris. But, they must, must show some outrage, no matter how fake . Bbc no better already. Spurious, tenuous links in a story to president trump …..it really is never ending. This faux moral outrage stuff really does my nut in. 06.53 and the TV is off.
BBC If you see one thing today:

Is their Tears and Tantrums Editor Lily back out there with her BBC crew?
Bbc ‘news’ email lead headed ‘Iran hits back’:
“But his Iranian counterpart, Hassan Rouhani, has hit back, calling the US’s actions “psychological warfare”, which don’t “make sense”. “
So the US acts, but the bbc deems a flouncing handbag comment as tangible? Berks.
Comments are, so far, mixed, but between #FBPE acolytes and those who are now convinced the bbc has utterly lost the plot.
Speaking of the fuzz, here are two ex-Beeboids working in perfect harmony ignoring what does not suit and pushing what does:
Well, Mr Esler, if we condemn undemcratic processes elsewhere, and prison for dissenters with a kangaroo court and state cencorship and propoganda eleswhere…..

As a letter-box myself, I take offence at Boris’s highly inflammatory comparison to Burqas.
At least we letter-boxes serve a useful purpose.
To be fair, letterboxes are usually red, when not gold, and as is well known red can see those who kick off easily kick off even more.

Question: which one of the 7 is the female?
Then; which one is carrying the AK47?
We don’t know! So how does the MOD security people at our airports/borders know who is who?
It certainly highlights the bias of the BBC when one listens to Julia Hartley Brewer in discussion, this morning on Talk Radio, with a representative of the Muslim council of Britain.
She defended her right to be offended by women wearing the niqab and burka and stated that she would ban them tomorrow.
What a refreshing change from the constant virtue signalling moaning bbc and their faux outrage.
Can’t the bbc see the hypocrisy in banging on about wimmins rights to wear what they want when Sad dick Khan is banning posters from Londonistan showing women in bikinis doing exactly that!
If I knew how, I would insert a relevant caption:
“Does my bomb look big in this?”
Yes let’s forget about the £9m and calculate the advertising value of messages from the BBC…oh maybe we won’t. Bunch of hypocrites…
Serena Williams threatened to have a line judge killed and was thrown out of the 2009 US Open.
She is an aggressive, butch, ugly, bully of a woman but that seems to mean nothing to the BBC who treat her as the darling of the tennis world.
She now claims that the reason she is suffering a loss of form is due to “postpartum emotions” (formerly post-natal depression).
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/tennis/2018/08/07/serena-williams-says-struggles-postpartum-emotions-behind-rogers/
Just imagine the trauma the poor child must be going through having her as a mother.
I think when you get a wiimin like that they call it “feisty” in any other person it is just called nasty, vicious, bullying aggressive and antisocail
As an aside I have worked since the late 70s and in every case of workplace bullying there has been a woman at the heart of it, with a little “gang” they learn it in the playground and unfortunately never grow out of it
BBC fav is Serena … cant think why ???
D78
Serena, about as serene as her sister is Venus-like, or should it be Venusian?
She has never recovered from the strain of hiding from the drug tester.
Grunting at 200db all your working life must also be tiring.
The photograph must be 15 years old, the BBC missed a trick there, they should have shown the one where Michael Brown and Trayvon Martin are eating blancmange and jelly with Serena and her parents on her birthday.
Didn’t she fail a drugs test ? couldn’t fit her cock in the test tube or something..Ill get my coat..
Did you know she had had a baby?
Has Fran Unsworth resigned yet?
A
“cock in the test tube”
I am waiting for the time that twenty second rate, but still good enough to be professional, male tennis players, realise that they could make 10X their current income by self-identifying as female.
If said “females” then went on the Womens Tour they would slaughter Serena and Co., win all the prize money and piss off a large number of individuals and a smaller number of organisations who I would dearly love to see pissed off. Including the BBC.
Tranny tennis, hmm BT may pick that one up, but the size 10 stilletos will slow then down a bit
Quelle horreur.
Am now lounging on the chaise longue, a handsome young man of indeterminate gender is about to minister to me with a well-placed fan and some smelling salts to follow.
Oh-it`s KD Lang…maybe Tony Hadley?
Bbc does its bit to share the love under that ‘Asian’ tag it deploys when required?
Is that the tinned stuff? I quite liked Winalot and Bonio when my teeth were up to it.
Dachshunds were renamed for a good reason.
Define “humanely kill”?
Is that “slit it’s throat whilst chanting verses from a holy book”?
Other questions occur…
This is permitted despite the animal welfare standards currently in place whilst we are still within the EU?
Presuming legitimate ownership, at certain times of the year would said slitting be permissible in the street without interference?
Asking for a community relations specialist.
It should be noted the small print where the evidence is at best sketchy. Envy of the world.
Well the world is doomed and the plebs don’t care, says Prof Chris Rapley, from University College London.
“At a time of the widespread rise of right-wing populism, with its associated rejection of the messages of those perceived as ‘cosmopolitan elites’ and specific denial of climate change as an issue, the likelihood that the combination of factors necessary to allow humanity to navigate the planet to an acceptable ‘intermediate state’ must surely be close to zero.”
I don’t think it is ‘right-wing populists’ that want to build a city the size of Birmingham every three years, fly to Pakistan and back twice a year, import half of Africa or call for ever faster growth to pay for the ever rising debt repayments on ever rising government borrowing to fund their ‘globilisation’ plans.
Whatever Gaia gets up to, Prof. Chris might worry more about scorched earth human influence closer to home.

Bbc not ramping up beyond reason at all.
Speaking of ramping up the heat, here is the U.K. national broadcaster stirring things up as only they can with… an old and trusted friend…
Have the BBC not heard of Aesop’s Fables, and ‘crying wolf’ too often?
Professor Christopher Rapley was a well respected scientist. Once upon a time. Some of his more recent ‘achievements’:
Helped Al Gore with the ‘Live Earth’ concert whilst he was director of the British Antarctic Survey
Co-wrote a play on climate change (sic)
Endorsed the parliamentary candidacy of Caroline Lucas from the Watermelon Party
The Beeb are permantly outraged by Boris( but never Jeremy obviously) much like they’ve been outraged by Trump these past 3 years.
Sorry beeb but I’m with Boris I’m afraid.
The Today programme today was just awful (and I only listened between 7a.m. and 7.20 (ish).
They led with the US and Trump bringing back sanctions with Iran. Everybody knows that the Obama deal wasn’t worth the paper it was written on. But shall we just be kind to the Beeboids – I suspect that they really think it was an agreement worth keeping. But we also had Jon Sopel, with his faux excitment, about the investigation into Trump and his son and their links with the Russians (why does he always sound like a 5 year old child who has caught an adult out with a poor joke?); we had the Boris letterbox moment which was repeated with the Mirror in the review of the papers – but it was used doubly (or perhaps three times) – to show that the Conservatives are just as bad with anti-Islam sentiment as Labour is with anti-Semitism (if the Today think comments in a national newspaper about appearance are the same as comments about Jews going to the gas chamber, comments about chimneys, etc etc…. sent to Jewish people) but also to attack Boris because some survey the Today programme highlighted says that the Conservatives are looking to Boris as their next leader, plus to have Mishal having a sympathetic opportunity to let someone from Tell Mama to have the space to say whatever they wanted; and I haven’t even mentioned yet the rant about climate change – which as it is supposed to be the last hot day for a while (possibly years), the BBC cannot resist ramping up the rhetoric.
And meanwhile the Today listening figures just get less and less.
Deborah
When it comes to Iran coverage the Today prog is dismally predictable. I did not hear Today today but I would imagine they had regime lickspittle Prof Mandy?? of Teheran Uni on denouncing the West unchallenged by whoever was interviewing and possibly backed up by the superannuated weasel Jack Straw exulting the Iran deal. Lamont used to be wheeled out but his enthusiasm for the Mad Mullahs seems to have become more private in recent years.
Toady watch
Why bother ?
Prof Jordan Peterson has been interviewed by on Hardtalk.
The interview was the higher level beeboid – Sackur – who obviously seems himself as the new paxo .
The show apparently is on the world service but the prof linked it to Twitter .
Sackur had done his home work – he had studied the wonderful Cathy Newham interview and looked for his guests weakness. He didn’t find any . He tried to trap the prof into saying wimmin should not have got the vote – and went at him on his views on equality and wimmin – and failed.
Afterward I had a look at mr Sackur and say a reference back to here some 5 years ago when his anti Jewish behaviour was being discussed as he is married to a muzzie … the war against al beeb is a long one .
As I write this prof peter Hennessy by box ticking an interview with the god awful Warsi – over promoted because she is a paki/ stani woman who managed to avoid banging out little ‘mo s’ and somehow became a Tory , a minister and now the house of wasted air . Tick box Britain .
Hennessy sounded bored as he was obviously under orders to talk with the horror . Tick box Britain . Apparently a senior politician . I weep. .
Warsi has a rather large chip on her shoulder, considering she’s done very well out of her particular circumstances, and is still around, in a privileged position -elected by no one- to lord it over us plebs.
Am listening to it now as I write.
Sackur is a reflex shallow snob, ignorant and clueless.
Seems to be worried about the Bible , Trump and blokes, with Jordan warning us of Leftish totalitarian historical trends.
THAT`S what Sackur and the BBC dread-cleverer people than themselves who know what they and their lefty goons are up to.
Sackur is mincing horsemeat in an Art Garfunkel wig.
Thanks for posting, we on Netflix rely on these posts to see what the BBC are up to-as if we don`t know.
Have forwarded this to my girls elsewhere. Jordan is brilliant as ever. Way too clever for the BBC virtue signallers-flashers as I call them.

the new paxo?
You might be on to something, all at Broadcasting House seem to like a good stuffing, or multiple.
Probable currently engaged in circular activities with Vaz, Mandy and co.
I bet they are all bottle spinning champions.
It’s probably already been covered, but just in case it hasn’t.
Have the BBC or any of the UK media outlets apologised for the lies they spread for months (years?) about the stone cold certain guarantee of violence that would occur in Russia during the World Cup?
It’s just that I’ve never seen anything and it’s kind of like a topic that just, well, ended in a “we shall speak of this no more” type of way.
Woolwich – fair comment – and it stopped a lot of people going to support the national team but a beeb doesn’t like people waving the St George’s Cross does it ?
Woolwich, I note that you have encountered the age-related dementia and with it, the memory lapses and amnesia, that the BBC is now plainly suffering from. Welcome to another bit of the Bias by Omission that The Beeb throws out at us.
If you listened carefully to the TOADY Programme this morning, you would have heard the Millennium Bug scuttle into the studio and bite both The Humph and Margaret Beckett on the leg.
I am waiting with interest to see if there is another instance of Beeb amnesia before the end of this month.
