Comrade Corbyn has declared his support for the rapidly failing BBC but suggested that there be a ‘British digital corporation’ to rival Netflix or Amazon. Meanwhile , back on Planet Earth , the BBC has not commented about the thoughts of a potentially future Prime Minister .
He also seems to want beeboids to declare their Social Class. Now there’s a giggle . Maybe users of this site should assign a five star system to those appearing on BBC output and have a special category for no class at all…
I try the 30 second tune in test on BBC Breakfast this morning.
Oh dear. The over-manned, or should that be over-womaned, serried sofa ranks of Steph, Naga and some additional sports woman are babbling and cooing about how wonderful is Serena Williams. Then we have to linger lovingly over pictures of Serena in her shiny black cat suit.
I ponder for a moment the notion of how much constipation a hundred weight of licorice might cure.
Thoroughly turned off, I turn off. These people have little to no interest in sport as such – it’s simply agenda agenda agenda, identity-group hero-worship and of course gender!
Boy, once reality sets in..
Blimey, “Big Asian Stand Up” seems quite appropriate in her case.
Well, she’s a big girl and she’s standing up. Doesn’t look particularly Asian, though, more Indian subcontinent (Punjab, perhaps). Come to think of it: we don’t see many Chinese, Japanese, Koreans etc at all on the BBC.
Just as an aside, here are the definitions of ‘Asian’ people in different countries as given on Wikipedia. Note how they don’t bother to give definitions from any actual Asian countries: it’s still 18th Century-style Orientalism mentality wrapped up in 21st Century Liberal Racism.

Al beeb has started replacing presenters with robots . Today’s one is called Kamal .anyway – I made 35 minutes before the off switch — agenda – slag the Catholic Church – give Corbyn a free pass on Zionist / Jewish irony ( he ll be more careful with his words ) sobbing about the Burmese kicking Muslims out of the country ( ex beeboid Nobel peace price winner gets free pass ) and some nonsense about a Muslim radio station in Iraq .
Enough – so I’ll miss the “ President Trump kicking spot”and ‘we re all going to die because of brexit spot”
At least Martha is away counting her bees ..
It’s strange that comrade Corbyn’sback catalogue of words are coming out the way they are – there is so much going back to the 1970s … suppose McDonnell is getting ready for the kill…

At last the tennis authorities have acted against Serena Williams wearing her black catsuit.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/45302108
Serena, who previously threatened to have a line judge killed, had described feeling like a black panther when playing in the all black outfit, clearly a reference to the murderous black terrorist group, even though cuddly Serena pretended it referred to the superhero film and then played the caring mother card by saying it helped her with post-natal issues.
Needless to say, it hasn’t harmed her career one jot. I wonder how a white player would have been received if they had turned up wearing a Klu Klux Klan outfit?
Or a club hosting a Big White Male Stand Up?
to “I wonder how a white player would have been received if they had turned up wearing a Klu Klux Klan outfit?”
Robin White, female, white and from the USA, wore a one piece white outfit at a tennis tournament in the UK c1985. Either Wimbledon or a qualifier.
For one round only, this was when the tournament directors enforced the dress codes.
Google “Robin White tennis outfit row” images and you will find it.
Well here’s a turn up! After yesterdays revelation (no doubt Corbyn inspired) That Channel 4 is the broadcaster with the poshest staff there was a response by its head, ex BBC Ian Katz. I decided I’d look up Mr Katz, under the impression he had some kind of Communist history, but couldn’t find anything, however what I did find was perhaps even more interesting.
Katz who is yet another product of the Jewish Hampstead dwelling elites, is married to Justine Roberts CEO and founder of internet blogging site ‘Mumsnet’.
No wonder the BBC appear to make reference to this web site in ever issue surrounding mothers, and that connection was one I hadn’t previously known about.
It was noted when Newsnight was asking what ‘working Mums’ felt about Brexit, and invited in a curiously unrepresentative panel to tell the rest of Britain’s future nurturers how to vote.
Also Danny Cohen (sorely missed) is married to Noreena Hertz, also often invited on for impartial expertise.
Love to be a fly on the wall at one of the Hampstead suppers where the Cohens and Katz are sitting around the table.
That “TV is run by posh white people” comes from the Royal Television Society speech by Michaela Coel
and the C4 exec comment the Q&A after based on the execs Guardian article about C4 and BBC having hardly any staff self declaring as working class.
Context
https://twitter.com/janinegibson/status/1032331131868336129
At the Edinburgh TV Festival this week, BBC confirmed plans to produce a new show written by Michaela Coel. Titled Jan 22nd, the series will explore sexual consent in the 21st century
(in her speech she told how she had been sexually assaulted , but TV execs seemed unsympathetic as they urged her to deliver her script on time)
The C4 exec said
“The truth is that if you come from a background like Michaela Coel you have to be an extraordinary person to get success and yet we have an industry full of mediocre, posh white people”
IMHO the problem with media industry is that
It’s full of
#1 mediocre, posh white people who are GUILT RIDDEN hence all the virtue signalling.
and #2 BME people who have a huge sense of ENTITLEMENT
Surely a big gesture is needed.
Get rid of that prancing bed blocker privately educated vicars fop of a toff-Jon Snow, a dead mans shoes job for lifer if ever we knew one.
A ceremonial hanging would be nice, but just kicking him out of media life would be good.

Elephants storming into room: BBC rollout lightweight clone to issue Establishment response.
There has been a massive increase in Mumps within Europe during the past three years – a disease almost eradicated a couple of decades ago. Apparently more than 30 people have died this year. So what’s going on? BBC to the rescue, with this item offering the explanation (sic). It is delivered by a standard issue BBC clone, who talks fast and confidently and with open eyes and in that annoying and patronising manner that the BBC considers to indicate authority and truth (sic). It seems that vaccination is not so popular these days, mainly as a consequence of a suspect link between the MMR vaccination and autism some 20 years ago. But – needless to say – opposition to vaccination is also being promoted by ‘populist political parties’ and people ‘pursuing an anti-establishment agenda’. There are references to failing medical infrastructures in some countries (which means Romania and Ukraine) and cryptic references to pockets of ‘some communities’ not having full access to medical services or ‘cultural reasons’ for opposition to vaccination. A similar message is being pushed in the United States, where Mumps is also on the rise, where the Amish (a statistically insignificant minority) are being referenced.
It is extremely difficult to obtain reliable information about this development, as the Establishment has closed ranks on it. But reading between the lines, various snippets can be picked up. For instance, there has been a large increase in cases of Mumps in the border region between Hungary and Romania, and Roma have been cited as an example of a ‘marginalised community’ with limited access to medical services.
Now, it is true than vaccination rates have been falling in Western countries. There is probably an element of indifference from some people, who see some diseases as having been eradicated and therefore don’t need worrying about any more. And increased travel means that more people visit countries where Mumps is still common (many infections take place abroad). But here’s another possible explanation: in recent years there has been an explosion of orchestrated hyper-immigration into Europe. Most of this is from Africa, the Middle East and parts of the Indian sub-continent – areas of the world where many people are not routinely vaccinated and where Mumps is endemic. Few of these people are checked for their medical history after arriving in Europe, indeed, many of them are here illegally and undocumented. Now… is it just possible that there is some sort of correlation between this and the re-emergence of diseases such as Mumps in the West? Surely not. If people knew that, they might develop some sort of immunisation to the constant calls from the Globalist Establishment and their lackies in the media for ever more migration….

It’s certainly encouraging for the survivalists who are planning for the next global virus or bacteria to kill half the population before we know how to deal with it .
Uncontrolled borders means uncontrolled infection .
Views are mixed.
Meanwhile the bbc is playing things low key by ignoring the murders and mutilations but going after South Africa being testy that Pres. Trump has mentioned them.
Genuinely surprised that the BBC pension fund isn’t ethical – it invests in tax dodgers like Amazon and competitors like Netflix . Or should I be surprised…
GW: ‘ South Africa being testy’- This is not surprising. If there is truth in Lauren’s film (and she got only the tip of the iceberg) someone would have to admit that these brutal farm murders, often accompanied by torture, are explicitly RACIST murders, in the main. And that would undermine the great socialist/’liberal’ myth that racism is ‘white on black’, and reveal that, not only does the reverse apply, but that -when it does- it is often far more vicious and hate-filled than anything whites have done.
Just as there was ‘petty Apartheid’ and ‘grand Apartheid’, there are ‘petty’ racist murders of whites in each individual farm attack, and there is the ‘Grand Plan’: to cause sufficient terror to drive whites off the land, and ultimately out of the country. That is why the SA government is testy: lest the whole truth emerge.
We can’t have that happening, can we, o Bbc, Guardian etc?
fakenews watcher
It sure is a strange old world . To loud applause from Western liberals/communists, we have Africa frantically dismantling diversity and Europe frantically installing it. Conspiracy? I think we should be told – before the war starts.
I just love Lauren Southern.

Times front page “Far right comes out for Jeremy Corbyn
as ex-BNP and Ku Klux Klan chiefs show support”
Doh There are a lot of intelligent ways to question Corbyn, Labour and their slick PR machine.. but
#1 Don’t use the “Guilt by association fallacy” *
#2 Don’t use the smear boo-word “far right”, cos that make it look like you are using the “label and dismiss” trick, instead of proper analysis.
Anyone using the blanket term “it’s the far-right” is basically doing the same as shouting “it’s the Jews”
*…Guilt by association, is a logical fallacy that occurs when a person/belief is supported or attacked because of its relation to some other person/belief.
It is, to an extent, a version of a non sequitur.
And is also a form of Ad Hominen fallacy.
Something strange over at the Times I posted a version of the above as a comment and they deleted it after 5 hours.
I think this is another nail in the whining Remainers’ coffin:

A Brexit no deal won’t bring on Armageddon but there will be some turbulence.
Well thank goodness. I was getting concerned about a Radio Kent discussion, which remainers including Esler are crowing about.
Some know-it-all called Jason Hunter appeared to be telling Jonathan Isaby (Brexit Central Editor) that we cannot negotiate independent free trade deals with e.g. Japan or Canada without them agreeing it with, or consulting, the EU in advance.
In short, it’s all too difficult and we must have another vote.

Richard Dawkins Says ‘Atheism for Children’ Book Will Help Arm Kids Against Religious ‘Indoctrination’

. . . I’ve long wanted to break that cycle and help children to think for themselves.”

Evidence that Mr Dawkins is if not stupid he’s inconsistent. He refuses to believe in God or that God created the earth and everything in and on it. He refuses to believe that but in the same breath believes there could be a world of aliens somewhere who produced we humans. But he doesn’t know who created the aliens. Nah, I think he’s just another over educated idiot.
Both Dawkins and Hawking believe(d) in aliens coming here to impregnate and populate our planet, some time back.
Nobody laughs or howls them out of the building though do they? Instead we get their crap about believing in spaghetti monsters if we believe in Christianity etc.
Dawkins gave us the “meme” concept-that thoughts effectively are psychic replicating companions to “genes”.
But again-nobody laughs.
And don`t start me on Camilla Batmangheghlis worrying about the wiring and emotional thermostats of her old darlings in youth offending.
THIS is science at the BBC and in evolutionary biology.
Thankfully for them Martha Kearney is their science bod, think she teaches Harrabin and little Attenboroughs doubtless clunking into sperm specimen jars as we speak.

Not a theory I subscribe to but Directed Panspermia – the thesis that life on Earth was spread by intelligent aliens – has captured the imagination of several scientists. Here is a paper by Crick of DNA Watson and Crick fame. As for Dawkins, he is very much a copycat who does not follow his arguments through.
https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/0019103573901103
No matter how fancy the title, the cod greek?
It`s still aliens shafting human material if that`s what we choose it to mean.
Dawkins was a slave trader way back as well. Unlike Cliff Richard eh?
I think Mr Dawkins is a prime example of what, I think, G. K. Chesterton said:
“When you stop believing in God, you don’t believe in nothing, you believe in anything”.
There is no evidence that God exists any more than there is evidence that Santa Clause exists (but you might disagree with that).
There is, however, evidence that a planet can sustain life – we’re actually living on one. There is always the possibility, therefore, that similar conditions could have developed elsewhere.
Not being able to say where the aliens might have come from is hardly evidence of a sky fairy.
With arguments like yours, I would be wary of using words like “idiot”.
How do you know that there is no evidence God exists, Iain? What is your evidence for this?
What sort of evidence do you require to prove that God exists?
If you were provided with that evidence would you then accept the fact of His existence and seek to serve and follow Him?
Regardless of the existence of a divine entity, we certainly do not need self-appointed intermediaries, in the form of religious leaders, to tell us how to conduct our lives. It’s hardly been a roaring success in the past! Most contributors to this site will not accept such influence from the EU and BBC but a man in a dress must be obeyed without question?

Offensive to be legally obliged to fund such rubbish.

Everything the BBC R4 produces that in theory sounds good turns out to be written and delivered by morons – I try to listen when driving but normally have to turn it off….
It has nothing to do with economics. Its purpose is to demonstrate that:
1. ‘Ethnics’ are the New British and their dialect is the new RP.
2. Women are smart and men are idiots.
3. There are more theories of economics than economists.
Sky news had a piece about the upcoming boxing match between KSI and Logan Paul.
Obviously, as it is sport, it required a female reporter, a lady called Kumba Kpakima. I know this is going to sound cruel, but the poor lass is wholly inarticulate, and her speech is difficult to make out. This must have been known by the producers as she delivers her commentary in a very slow, deliberate style.

I admit surprise that Diversity May is not a supporter.
I’ve heard four BBC reports on the situation in Venezuela over the last two days – yet to hear them mention the socialist government. They talk about economic woes of Madura’s government but not how a country with oil and a once stable economy can decline to the point 8% of the population have left – and many more are queuing at the borders.

There surely cannot be a more pampered population (and a less deserving one) in history than the Palestinians.
They have managed to leech off the entire planet, via UNRWA, as ‘refugees’ for seventy years.
The hundreds of thousands of Jewish refugees who were forced from their homes in Arab countries with only the shirts on their backs around 1948 were not offered special status by the UN for their lifetimes and those of their descendants. Neither did they form terrorists groups to try to recover their homes, businesses and possessions. They settled in Israel and other countries and became productive citizens.
It’s high time UNRWA, which helps only Palestinian refugees and no others, is consigned to the dustbin of history and the Palestinians learn to fend for themselves like any other people.
Trump has made a good start in this regard.
“Despots and charlatans filling their pockets with our taxes”. Does that include the EU?

“Settled Science” is a very disturbing phrase. Science is never “settled”.

Following the Catalan Dragons surprising win at Wembley today, I was celebrating in a public house near Luton, which had BBC News on the TV. Or was it, because it just seemed to have solid coverage of the Pope in Dublin. I had to check it was not some strange Irish news, but it really was the BBC. Their main news had Martin Bashir on the Papal plane as extra coverage. So, maybe it was a really strange thing having the Pope leave the Vatican, but it appears that he was last there only 4 years ago. Anyway, the sports news is still to come.
Would that be the open borders, climate alarmist, redistributionist, social justice Pope by any chance?
Winner by the way of the Daily Idiot award went to the Wembley stadium announcer who greeted the crowd with the immortal line ‘ Welcome to Warrington Wolves versus Catalan Dragons, a historic Anglo – Welsh clash today here at Wembley.’ Presume that basic geography was missing in his education.

It would be much more accurate to say that the greatest scandal in US history took place under Obama but that a cover up by the Washington swamp and their lap dogs in the media has so far largely kept it from the public. But with luck the whole corrupt mess will become knowledge soon.

I ignored their exhortations and when eventually rang, I simply explained to the licence person in Cardiff that I no longer wanted to view live TV channels because, amongst other things, the broadcasts had become almost exclusively targeted to Blacks and Asians. Shortly after, I received a, “No Licence Needed Confirmation” by post which will, “….last until January 2020.” I was informed that I may receive a visit from a member of their staff to confirm my situation. I replied that, that was fine but if they chose to do that, that person would receive the same response ON THE DOORSTEP. I await, video camera at the ready, that visit.
Thanks guys . Can I report them to the police for harassment ?
You can . Or take out an injunction using form N1 and N16a as a civil case , or a private prosecution by lodging a letter of intent at your magistrate court .

A parable of our cultural demise – a rambling thought for the day – sort of
I was never very keen on Gavin Esler. I decided his soft, bland, somewhat deceptive presenting style on BBC News Channel was carefully designed to enable his lefty interviewees to state and to build their narratives and was done without Esler ever challenging on behalf of the conservative viewer. It was, for example, perfectly obvious he shared completely the internationalist metropolitan liberal mindset with the many foreign lefties who were often blatantly anti-British anti-American journos invited into BBC studios for the discussion show Dateline London. My epiphany of Esler watching was an edition of Dateline where the Falkland Islands were discussed with the shocking unanimous round table conclusion that Britain should jolly well clear out and pass sovereignty, and presumably the Islanders, over to Argentine rule. Esler scarcely demurred, instead he was apparently content. In frustration I nicknamed him Mr Nice Guy in part a spoof of the name Nice Guy Eddie a gangster character from Tarantino’s flick Reservoir Dogs. In part it was for his smug simpering semi-matinee idol presenting persona. Esler was, for me, the quiet insidious under-the-radar but all the more dangerous lefty at the BBC. His non-combatant style was exemplified by his relationship on the News Channel movie review thread with former Trotskyite left-wing reviewer and BBC favourite Mark Kermode. Whereas Kermode’s BBC radio appearances saw his opinions sometimes amusingly checked and his left-wingery often mocked or chided by Simon Mayo, on TV the polemicist in Kermode was met with a nodding dog-like Esler. Consequently, the News Channel film review segment was relentlessly dull; completely lacking critical debate between presenter and reviewer. Now Esler seems to have become officially detached from the BBC. Now he is free to spout about what a really bad idea he thinks and how much he abhors Brexit; which he does. Meanwhile Jane Hill takes up his slots on the News Channel both on Dateline London and on the Film Review. Given current trends I assume that when the BBC eventually retires Kermode, and his middle-aged pale male black jackets and trademark nifty fifties teddyboy duck’s arse hairstyle, he too will be replaced by another female – and likely as a progressive he will be perfectly happy about it. Hill is, I understand, a lesbian and I notice she tends to work a reference to her ‘spouse’ or ‘partner’ into the short spot with Kermode on a pretty regular basis – just saying. Could it be that the BBC is before our very eyes morphing into her long-time alter ego – Auntie. Are we now witnessing the Nice Guy BBC disappearing up her own vagina?

Time for indigenous Britons to set up patrols then – with the intention of re-establishing the rule of law and “celebrating the positive things that indigenous people do.”
Over at ITTB a poster has shared a link to a bbc ‘fact check’, replete with ‘verdict’, that perfectly illustrates how it is the Jeremy Corbyn of Broadcasting.

Hard to tell if this is a spoof or not. Maybe bbc ‘fact check’ could work their magic?
Certainly, beyond them all being one, a BBC Turkey Editor position needs creating.
For a minute there I thought that was the Channel Tunnel.
I can’t remember this one? I guess that’s the problem now: there are so many stabbings by foreigners.
Yet another muslim suffering from ‘mental illness’.

Question: was it an animal or a human being? I wouldn’t put anything past these savages.
Beeb website telling us the Irish are going to have problems getting horses to compete in the Grand National with a no deal Brexit. I seem to remember Arkle coming over to Blighty in the 60’s plundering a lot of big races without to much trouble and correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t recall us being a member of the 4th Reich then.
Comments are enabled here, and so far ‘could’ is well in the lead…
“An agreement that eases movement across the Irish Sea”. They are called passports and racehorses can have an equine version. FFS, you can even get them for dogs!! In this case the Irish National and, indeed, any other race meeting in Ireland, will be devoid of GB-based horses.
Really hope this page ports over exactly as I am reading it.
Don’t dare read the comments.
‘It is much more useful to look at the issue from the perspective of global power relations, especially “between people who colonised the global South and people who are economically and politically dispossessed and marginalised…reflect the history of cultural looting.
“It’s easy to say let’s just get over the past,” says Cape Town artist and photographer, Thania Peterson, “but we can’t because the past, and how we feel. is so deeply ingrained in us… So when we see Damien Hirst, a British artist, using African art in his work, what he represents to us is a nation and an empire that has only taken”.
Apparently we can’t use paper anymore. It’s a Chinese invention and we’ve appropriated it it for our benefit and profit. Same with gunpowder, or Arabic numerals [actually Indian but whose counting whose appropriating?], or all that Greek knowldege we’ve plundered, the Roman technology we’ve looted and of course Christianity must be sent back to the Middle East where it came from before we adopted it and shaped and adapted it to our purposes. Not forgetting Jerk Chicken.
The BBC has caught onto Golden Dawn Butler’s outraged protests about Jamie Oliver’s Jerk rice and have shaped their response in the way you might expect…..all the outrage comes first, then were told it’s all to do with Labour MP, Golden Dawn Butler’s tweet…then the BBC kindly let’s us see those opposed to her racist outrage…the first one…a Tory MP. BBC trying to slip in the idea that any challenge to Golden Dawn Butler is purely political?…never mind the comments under her tweet from everyday folk completely destroyed her.
Can’t imagine the BBC being so supportive if a Tory MP had claimed jamaicans couldn’t make and adapt classic ‘British’ dishes to suit their own taste or ideas….he’d be a racist.
Just one look at Golden Dawn Butler’s cultural hero, Levi Roots’, own website will show what rubbish she is talking as he adds ‘Reggae Reggae’ sauce to just about anything to claim it is now Caribbean ‘Reggae’ style…pizza, burgers, pasta, prawn cocktails, nachos, burritos, fishcakes, coleslaw and even porridge.
I’m outraged. BBC please note.
Oh and by the way…everyone in Africa please be aware we’ll be having a collection of all mobile phones, computers and cars and medicines and aircraft and stuff like that so that your cultures remain prisitine, unadulterated and morally free of guilt by the theft of Western technology….not forgetting the umbrella, suit and tie and the hoodie…
The Beeb are getting truly desperate… Todays anti Brexit story is: ‘No-deal Brexit may hit Grand National’. Notice a pattern here? just in the last week or so:
“Brexit could have ‘hugely damaging’ effect on football clubs, say chairmen” (16th August)
‘Brexit….What about my pension’ (25th August)
‘UK’s ‘no-deal’ Brexit plans warn of credit card fees’ (23rd August)
‘No-deal Brexit ‘worse than thought’ for science’ (25th August)
‘Brexit: NHS managers warn about impact of no deal’ (21st August). This one even warned of the ‘spread of diseases’ (Based on a ‘leaked memo’)
A couple months back I even saw a local BBC news story that said that the WOMAD festival would be threatened by Brexit!
Now pro or anti, you have to marvel/laugh at the one sided reporting demonstrated by the BBC. Anything they pick up that fuels their bias is reported, normally on the front page. It is also mainly reported as if it were fact, never mind that it’s all pure speculation.
How an earth did we manage to survive pre 1973?
‘Getting’?

Intern 1: “There’s a press release in the fax tray”.
Intern 2: “Is it based on substantiated fact?”
Intern 1: “No, just spun hype, with a ‘could’ as an arse cover”.
Intern 2: “Oh; remember what they told us at jouno school that afternoon course where we graduated quicker than a brain surgeon of colour?”.
Intern 1: “Just read the subject line”.
Intern 2: “Precisely. And what does it say?”.

Senator McCain has died and the BBC use his death to continue the UK Government’s anti Trump propaganda.
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-45312217
In July last year, just after his diagnosis, he took part in a late-night Senate session and gave the deciding vote – with a thumbs-down gesture – against partially repealing the contentious Obamacare healthcare law. The move reportedly infuriated Mr Trump.
Mr McCain also criticised President Trump’s hard-line rhetoric on illegal immigration and his attacks on the media.
A Democrat ‘plant’ that ensured that they won regardless of the popular vote. A lot less messy than blatant electoral fraud.
Perhaps his electorate were not impressed on his broken pledge to repeal Obamacare, as the anti-Trump USA Today says
This is one instance in which President Trump’s criticisms of McCain are well-founded. McCain did run, as Trump is drumming, on a strong repeal-and-replace platform. In fact, it was the principal distinction he drew with his Democratic opponent, Ann Kirkpatrick. He would vote to repeal Obamacare. She would not.
