Start the Week Open Thread 3 September 2018

Tough times for the Far Left BBC. Its favourite political party is busy getting a civil war going and the party it hates is busily trying to stop conservatives joining the Tory Party. So as Parliament returns we can expect the BBC  to be in full bias mode – 12 days later the MPs go on their holidays again for the last Conference Season before we leave their EU.

On September 9 Sweden has a general election where the single anti immigration party is predicted to get 20% of the vote . Apparently the swedes have got fed up with vibrant handgenade attacks which are fashionable there at the moment and no doubt will feature in Britain sometime soon . The far left BBC will be on hand to tell us how thick and ‘Far Right’   20% of the population is…..

    I bet the Far Left BBC is all over the ‘Huddersfield 31 “ ( not a typo) a gang of alleged Pakistani paedophile rapists with a taste for white children – being put into court at Kirklees today and yesterday .

    No doubt we won’t hear anything of it because of ‘reporting restrictions “ otherwise known as the British State covering up .

    I bet the Asian legal aid lawyers up there think it’s christmas – or maybe not …

      I thought l’d play spot the story thanks to Fedup2’s interest in the BBC coverage of the “Huddersfield 31” alleged rape gang.
      So, here we go…..try the BBC home page. No, it’s not there.
      Check out the U.K. page. Nowt doing.
      The England page? Not there either.
      Keep drilling boy, they must have reported it somewhere. After all, the idea of justice being brought upon alleged paedophiles who prey on children is quite important, right?
      Check the Regions section, not immediately obvious.
      Try searching for “Yorkshire” and then select “Leeds and West Yorkshire”.
      Hurray, there it is, a secondary headline about 31 alleged rapists from Huddersfield.
      Good old BBC, what a fun game of hide and seek the story!
      Meanwhile, someone in the USA said something about the President and it is all over the Beeb today. Priorities eh.

        It’s prettty good evidence of the Far Left BBC willing to confront what is going on outside the Londonistan bubble that they bury such a huge event .

        Judges, no doubt , have to bend to defendant applications for reporting restricting in order to prevent a route to successful appeals , but it leaves the public badly served by not knowing what is going on in their courts .

        Same goes for the names of ‘yoofs’ Which are excluded for reasons which were snow flaky in the 1970s when the Act was passed but now in my view does more harm to the public than good . People , inc, criminal yoofs, need to be held accountable . Rant over

      The Guardian do report it, but a) despite the ‘UK news’ tag, the page cannot be found on their UK news page or linked to from anywhere on their site. And b) their lead photo and main concern is of anti-EDL protesters outside the court, showing 99% whites holding placards kindly provided by the Socialist Party.

      For what used to be remembered as actual journalism, local media is a better bet.

        I blame the Romans for our immigration crisis, as well as us having to revalue the pound in 1967.
        No less stupid-but Indian media, let alone Italian ones would not put up such crap as a “national voice”.

    I broke my own world record this morning. No, I’m not running the 100 metres dash faster than Usain Bolt, nor am I able to splash through the briny quicker than Michael Phelps. This is my own personal world record regarding The Today Programme.
    Usually I give it a few minutes before becoming so thoroughly irritated and disheartened that I find myself reaching for the off switch. This morning it was just under seven seconds.
    I heard the words “Trump” “Catastrophe” “Whitehouse” and “Revelations”, though (as Eric Morcambe almost said, “Not necessarily in that order…) and switched the bloody thing off.
    ARRGGH!
    I’ve been told by my doctor to avoid stressful situations. “Not good for the blood pressure, Jeff…not at your great age”

    Events over the last week or so confirm the depth and density of the American “Swamp” that Donald Trump has to drain. Things were all going so well before Trump. Its all leading in directions they do not like and contrary to their Marxist/Globalist desires, he’s got off to a good start and in the process, alarmed the “swamp” in general including their Masters. Now we learn that there is, possibly, some kind of mole in the White House who, with other co-conspirators, is dedicated to bringing the elected President down for any reason but primarily because to do so might be a case of ‘get him before he gets me’. We are ‘reliably’ informed by our own “most trusted” that President Trump’s “worst inclinations” viz.
    “Disorganised meetings, an impetuous and petty demeanour, an inability to stick to decisions, antipathy to a free press and “anti-democratic” instincts.
    He/she describes a “two-track presidency”, where the president’s actions – such as his conciliatory attitude toward “autocrats and dictators”, including Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin – are constrained and redirected by “adults in the room”.”
    A business Billionaire with those traits? C’mon MSM and BBC your flights of fancy will not stand up to objectivity and common sense.

      This endless, dribbling narrative from the left and the media really is pathetic.

      I know Tucker Carlson has a book out soon detailing the lunacy of the left but I hope someone at Fox puts together a film detailing in their own words the stark raving lunacy of the left in their dealings with Trump and then after each outburst to show how completely and utterly fake that they were.

      The trouble is, unless it’s something like the #walk away movement, the left are so blinkered and fanatical in their hatred that virtually nothing can puncture their bubble of stupidity and establishment conformism.

      To be fair to Sarah Montague, she was not shouting all over anything that Sebastian Gorka told her on her World At One show earlier. Not her usual performance at all, has she calmed down and learned to be an interviewer these days then?
      That said, it was clearly pre-recorded, so imagine they left big chunks out, and cut and pasted it as much as they could. Gorka etc are never allowed on live are they, unlike a Chakrabhati, say.
      Can`t imagine she`ll be on live again, after Mishal Husain took her apart on Today yesterday. if Mishal knows more than you do, you ARE in thick mince.

        ‘When did you last speak with Pres Trump ?” Expecting a woolly answer but he told her ‘ during the Korea talks “ to which she made no comment . A soft ‘gotcha ‘ moment .

        Mr Gorka said than c4 /itv were lefties but she said they are unbiased and controlled by ofcom. The ofcom staffed by Ex BBC staff that is ( my sentence )….

    Well, it may well be that a 20% figure is hopelessly understated, just as the polls here are mostly slanted to suit the establishment’s wishes.

    Having a think again about this Salisbury incident and I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s fake. Why? Well, because of Mrs May’s reaction; she comes over all macho and resolute about it, knowing that even if the Russians did poison people, she can bluster all she likes but she won’t be able to do anything about it, so she’s safely making empty threats in the HoP and trying to sound statesman like.

    In contrast with the French fishing illegality, which she could do something about but instead chooses to do nothing. She’s bellicose about fake stuff and an appeaser when it comes to real matters affecting real people.

There are links all over the place (Steele – Skripal – Pablo Millar – MI6) that point to our involvement too. After all MI6 and GCHQ were involved in operation crossfire hurricane that mutated in to Mueller’s special counsel.

      I’m pretty convinced the Skripals are/were agents working for the British secret service, a lot of things suggest that, at least to my thinking. Salisbury was not merely chosen because Pa Skirpal thought it would be a ‘nice place to settle down’ for a retired Russian gent, it was chosen because it’s a hub of the UK military – particularly research, aeronautics, translation, archives etc….

      The Russian secret service sent two agents to ‘neutralise’ the Skripals with a cleverly concealed secret weapon (novichok), and they nearly succeeded, although the disposal of the smoking gun (perfume bottle full of novichok) was botched.

      Does anyone honestly think espionage is/has ever been any different? It’s a deadly business, and innocent bystanders are always at risk of being ‘collateral damage’. It’s a price secret services (and governments) are very willing to pay.

      Reminds me of the ‘me too’ movement… did anyone, honestly, think that there wasn’t a seedy ‘casting couch’ culture in Hollywood? Did those girls (or their parents and agents) not realise what they were getting in to and think the price was ‘worth it’? I suspect not.

    Some homosexual legalisation measure has just passed in India and the BBC are naturally excited and treat it as an event to party about. Our correspondent and BBC News Channel anchor both take pains to point out Britain’s supposed culpability for outlawing homosexual activity under colonial rule and in some way that’s hard to understand for not repealing it in India when Britain no longer ruled India. Anyway, all you ever really need to know is was our fault (and there’s absolutely no statute of limitations on that). Now over to you Pakistan… or perhaps not.

        Compared to many laws that are passed, making homosexuality legal requires very littles resources or piles of cash. Its something India could have done on Day 1 of being independent.
        I didnt see the main report on the BBC News, but i caught the headline which lasted for 5 seconds and in which they managed to cram that ‘colonial’ word in there. Absolving India of any responsibility for the past 70 years and blaming nasty white British people.

        They could quite easily have said that despite Britain, Europe, US, in fact the entire western world making homosexuality legal way back in the 20th century, India failed to do so until now. India chose to carry on and ruin countless millions of peoples lives, branding them criminals, arresting them, destroying their lives…

        Thats the truth of the matter. Its got sod all to do with Britain and its colonial past. And to spin it to absolve India of any blame is bloody disgusting.

      John Sweeney is here indulging in what one might term ‘metropolitan liberal elite scary extreme right wing porn’. It’s actually a turn on for BBC Newsnight’s diminished audience to binge on such fascist fantasies. I know several otherwise sensible but nevertheless left-leaning people. I’m often surprised by their almost encyclopedic cognizance for obscure far right groups and have come to realise their enhanced appetite for hearing about such marginal guff. On one hand it reassures them of their own political virtue and on the other it simply tickles their political fancy.

      Sweeney’s report inadvertantly provides the answers. We are told Eastern Germany suffers unemployment and yet Merkel imports foreigners. The young migrant whimpers “This is not my country”. A self-inflicted problem all round.

      John Sweeney went to Germany with a narrative, clearly defined in his head. He had merely to find the ‘facts’ to support his narrative, which never changed, because he never listened. If you go with your ‘wall of hate’ and ‘far right violence’ story already written, it’s merely a question of selectively padding it out with a few appropriate visuals.
      So he heard what people were saying, but he didn’t LISTEN or absorb anything, or process anything in his mind, for that was not his objective at all. His objective was to put out HIS narrative. The trip was merely his alibi. He could have stayed at home.
      Looking at this propaganda, I would even say he SHOULD have stayed at home. Licence fee payers needn’t have been forced to sponsor such a superficial investigation and such a pointless voyage.

        .. it had not crossed their tiny little minds, that Hillary might not win.

        …and now they tell us Brexit is certain to be a catastrophe .

    Having no passport doesn’t make you ‘stateless’ but it doesn’t stop the BBC using that with their quotes in the headline.

    Oh, the boy is black too. What is the chances of that making it into a BBC article?

    Harpreet Singh was found by the Teaching Regulation Agency to have “fallen short of the standards expected of the teaching profession” and the report has now been published.

    Mr Singh – from Hitchin – was suspended from his job as head of maths at Sandye Place Academy in June 2017, one day after colleagues raised concerns regarding his social media posts, which were of an anti-Semitic nature.

    The former deputy head at Stevenage’s Marriotts school admitted posting to writing and posting the comments, including: “Every sane human is anti-Semitic. Because you b******* have made Zionism synonymous with the mistreatment of Palestinians.

    “Billions are anti-Semitic and proud of it. Israel should be wiped of [sic] the planet. Dogs! The chosen race?!?!?!! What an insult to God!”

    However, Mr Singh denied the allegation that he “demonstrated a lack of tolerance and respect for the rights and/or beliefs of others,” stating that he does not have any dislike for the Jewish faith or people.

    When giving his evidence, he added that he was provoked and his comments were taken out of context.

    It was also found that he had facilitated inappropriate use of his school laptop, which was used to view sexual material.

    It is hard to keep up with the ever changing meaning of words. I remember when ‘tolerance’ meant putting up with something, whereas now it means actively supporting.

    I thought I knew what ‘bias’ meant and I had a pretty shrewd idea how that applied to the BBC but it seems I was wrong. Bias now means a failure to follow the approved line 100%, there can be no hint of the existence of a contrary position. Sneering at Nigel Farage or President Trump is not enough, a truly ‘unbiased’ person doesn’t even acknowledge that they exist!

    BBC Radio 4 broadcast a long piece featuring the mild voiced Rabbi Jonathan Sacks (Corbyn fans reckon he’s a racist) this morning. His theme – respect for religion in our secular modern world. All religions – a call which might prove a tad ambitious. He had chats with ‘groups of British 6th form students’.

    But the BBC as usual fail miserably my 30 second tune in test.

    One young student reckons she admires a teacher of her’s who advocated a student ought to “make my own truth”

    Sounds like an iffy bit of teaching to me but the ever-polite Sacks lets that pass.

    My doubts about this young lady (and the BBC’s choice of her as a contributer) are confirmed when she (I believe it was the same voice) goes on to praise her prophet (Mohammed) as her great moral example.

    And the reason for this modern British girl (of presumably Pakistani heritage) pinning her cultural and ethical devotion to a seventh century arab?

    Because in a world that didn’t give rights to women he set out a system of rights for women – or some such wishful thinking. An uncomfortable mix of feminism and multi-culti thinking that wiffs strongly of the BBC.

    Once again our Rabbi Sacks (who the Corbynistas believe is a racist bigot) mildly accepted this young student’s nonsensical relativist unhistoric ramblings.

    I switch off.

    Maybe she can’t be expected to know better. Maybe Sacks is too polite and inclusive to know better. Maybe her teachers have a self-serving agenda. The BBC should know better.
