Weekend Open Thread 20 October 2018

I don’t know what to write. The BBC need not broadcast anti Brexit propaganda because the government is failing to represent the outcome of the Referendum without any help .

Elsewhere the constant propaganda against President Trump is becoming worn out as he continues to repair his country after years of Democratic swamp rule .

For those marching for Remaining on Saturday  ( disputed numbers of course)  – it’s good that you still have the freedom to do so because people with out of fashion views find themselves becoming enemies of the State – with political trials and summary sentences .

I have posted this early because of the recent server issues …

    First!

    As for the BBC, no one takes much notice of them anymore I don’t think.

    The Tories are ahead in the polls again so are the public seeing things differently?

    Here is to a better year next year! Maybe Davis or Mogg could be PM at some point?

          One, at least, of the Rochdale muslim child rapists fled bail to Pakistan and one of those eventually convicted in the Winchester trial fled to Italy and had to be “repatriated”.
          You would think that child rapists would not be given bail because of the risk of intimidating their victims. As at least two perpetrators skipped bail, you would think the penny would have dropped for all those razor-sharp legal minds. But then again there are so many muslim child rapists it requires a superhuman effort to keep track of them all.

        This is still the tip of a very large iceberg, the media never crunch the numbers to reveal the true extent of this, but here are the numbers, based on the UK census and The Jay Report:

        According to the UK census, Rotherham has a population of 240,000, it has 5% Asian, 2.5%Muslim, 1.25% Muslim male, and 1% Adult Muslim male…. so about 2,400 Adult Muslim males. Yet the Jay report described 1,400 child gang rape victims some raped hundreds of times, so probably in excess of 14,000 rapes in total. That is nearly 6 rapes per adult Muslim male…

        What is more, we have similar numbers in Telford, Sandwell… and many other towns, hidden by a government that refuses to do a proper study, and prefers votes over protecting children.

        This is coming from Islam, where Muhammad is considered the perfect role-model for all time, yet he married six year old Aisha who he hit in the chest for leaving the house against his orders. He owned and raped non-Muslim sex slaves like Maria the Copt. He force married Safiya the same day he had her husband tortured with molten metal to steal his gold, and genocided her tribe. He married his cousin Zaynab, and stole his sons wife Zayd, and had Asma bint Marwan murdered for witing insulting poems… Muhammads example promotes child rape, wife beating, forced marriage, incest, murder, genocide, and sex slavery for the unbeliever., and death to critics..

        When will the BBC spell out these numbers?, when will they examine the contents of this religion?

          Al beeb is much happier going after Christianity or the Jewish religion ( Israel for al beeb) than saying anything critical of an evil false religion like Islam .

          I’ve always believed that wahabis have infiltrated and control editorial output at al beeb – deceit is one of the techniques encouraged by that evil doctrine including the adoption of a western lifestyle to cover the infiltration process.

          Obviously wahabis originate in Saudi from corrupt oil money with a ruling party / family which is beyond regime change ….

            Its sad to say Fedup2, that the UK is going the way of in Lebanon, which is 1920 was 15% Muslim (85% Christian)… then they let the Muslims in. By 1975 through immigration and breeding the population increased to over 50% Muslim and war broke out for Islam to gain control. The war lasted 15 years… Lebanon is now a Muslim country, just try and criticize Islamic practices there. Same thing happened in Bosnia. Already several European countries have approaching 10% Muslim and demographic trends suggest alignment with the Lebanon process.

    BBC News, 20 erm, “men” again … yep, yet another racist, Islamic child rape gang.
    The same MO from our shameful judiciary, reporting restrictions
    so damage limitation to just one day is in full effect.
    The news reports on Al BBC radio had no mention of the I word
    at all, they picture a Sikh on its site, (the other 19 don’t get name mentioned?) … Drive has just started so possibly more will be forthcoming.
    It is utterly sickening
    Can you imagine the news outcry if these country wide, industrial scale racist, paedophile gang rapes were committed by our white population, on any Islamic, or indeed Sikh children?

    Its still going on … unbelievably,the BBC is trying to dress itself as some kind of news hero???, saying that they got the restrictions lifted.

    scrap the BBC, do it now.

    To their credit the BBC have the ‘grooming’ gang from Huddersfield as their lead story; I imagine the memory hole must be overflowing these days. How bad has it really been across the country? Officially there have been no ‘grooming’ convictions in Luton, Burnley etc though the same ‘vibrant’ conditions exist there.

    Not to worry though: the BBC is on track to meet its diversity targets by 2020 and we all know the root of all these problems is too many white newsreaders. Plus all this hate crime legislation will cause the hundred plus murder victims in London to rise from the dead now their feelings are unhurt.

    You cannot be someone’s friend if they don’t want to be friends. We are constantly hectored about ‘diversity’ but the diverse are never told in the strongest possible terms that raping children is evil, and it is not ok to aspire to be a criminal. Integration is a two way thing and from the start they have had it diametrically wrong: it is not the famously reticent, ultra polite British who are ‘intolerant’ but those whose cultures are somewhat less famed for their politeness etc.

    I imagine the net result of all this obsession with ‘celebrating diversity’ is that it has emboldened criminals who rightly feel they are above the law. Like so much liberal thinking it has cost so much time, money and effort only to make things worse.

      I would not credit the BBC with anything. The real story is that one of the accused who received 17 years, was allowed to return home after the trial with the rest because there was no risk to the public nor any danger of any of them absconding.

      No credit at all is due to the BBC, who are simply fulfilling their role as the state broadcaster. The only reason we know about this matter is because of the relentless actions of Tommy Robinson. The official narrative now will be how ‘the system’ is working properly after all, no need for people for people like Tommy Robinson, in fact he hindered matters, all as a run-up to try and prejudice his retrial/show trial on 23rd October.

      It was the headline on R4 and there was a long piece on it later, including local MP Barry Sheerman. To Mr Sheerman’s credit he mentions that he spoke of this in HoC in 2007 and the media inc BBC showed no interest.

      They talked about the ethnicity of the perpetrators (Asian, Pakistani heritage) but not that of the young girls. For the whole of the lengthy report the “m” word was scrupulously avoided. Mr Sheerman and others were at a loss to the root cause of this abuse. The elephant shuffled uneasily, but it needn’t have worried.

    On the other hand, in the present state of amnesia that much of the population appears to live in, they probably will not remember the near-constant claims of many Remoaners that the Russians and Facebook influenced old people (and everyone else) to vote Leave in 2016.

      And then ignoring the clear fact that the authorities were scared witless of being labelled as racist if they dared to investigate.
      By the way, it was all on the Labour Government’s watch, so I guess the Police and local councils were ‘embracing multiculturalism and embracing diversity’.

        The biggest scandal is the cover up over 40 plus years, the number of victims, the fact they are all white and that this abuse is the result of the perniciouse ideology of Islam. It can be observed in most European countries where there is a significant muslim minority.

        I think the percentage is one of the things the Romans did for us. Yet somehow they managed to exclude the BBC because this dim organisation hasn’t figured out yet that when a large number of crimes is committed by a small but increasing proportion of the population, you have a potentially big problem on your hands.

        I’m not certain of the precise figures but, from memory, I think TR mentions 3% of the population and 90% of the grooming.

          The BBC seemed to reluctantly accept that the overproportional representation of muslims in this crime was in some way significant,, yet recently they have been backtracking and attempting to deflect blame with nonsequiturs like “there are more white british paedophiles than muslim paedophiles”, which is beside the point. The BBC readily accepts that “all men are potential murders” because the ratio of men to women murderers in prison by far exceeds the ratio of men to women in the general population. The same is true for violent crime. Only white British and chinese or British of Chinese heritage are underrepresented in the British prison population. This contradicts the BBC mantra that immigrants are no more likely to be criminal than the general population. There is supposed to be an “ethnic pay gap” and so an “ethnic tax gap” to the Treasury. Yet the BBC would have us believe that, the average immigrant contributes more in tax than the average native Briton. A couple of Indian billionaires paying tax in Britain may skew the figures, but if there is an “ethnic pay gap” there must be an “ethnic tax gap” too. In spite of the BBC’s. many “self identifying” Fact Checkerds, they still produce contradictory drivel.

      And “Pakistani” isn’t all that important. It just happens to be where the inhabitants of our moslem enclaves come from. In other western countries the rapist would come from other moslem countries, according to the historical ties – Morocco, Algeria, etc.. The important thing is the common factor, which we are not allowed to mention – just as it wasn’t mentioned on Any Questions last night.

    It’s a struggle, isn’t it, for the diversity loving, multicultural BBC to do its analysis bit on the evIl Huddersfield grooming gang.
    Home editor Mark Easton, all furrowed brow, was at pains during the BBC News slot to explain how child sex abuse hides in society’s ‘dark corners’, on the edge of towns, where there is poverty, little hope, and little regard for law and order etc.
    Its all very concerning, a scandal blah blah blah and of course child sex abuse has involved all sorts of people – priests, TV presenters, east Europeans, teachers, shopkeepers (!) etc etc.
    There was not much you could disagree with except (of course) the crucial missing bit….yes, there was reference to Pakistani men, but no, there was no reference at all to their religious teaching, their all encompassing faith that throws a comfort blanket around routine misogyny and eventual abuse of girls.
    So here we go for the umpteenth time tiptoeing around the subject, and soon Tommy Robinson and others will speak out and the BBC will be among those who slap them down for daring to say what they daren’t……….

    Peterloo, the film, got a free plug on Jeremy Vine today. Director Mike Leigh said that he hadn’t been taught about Peterloo when he was at school and then went on to say that there had been little point in learning about the wives of Henry VIII, though an analysis from a republican view might have been interesting.

    Well I was certainly taught about Peterloo when I was at school and about Henry VIII. The later might have something to do with why we became a protestant country, why Northern Ireland has ‘complications’ and perhaps why we didn’t get taken over by Napoleon’s EU.

    Part of Mike Leigh’s message was that the authorities didn’t listen to the people, then or now, so you would think he would be in favour of Brexit but apparently not. He had told us that one of the reasons for Peterloo was the lack of representation, Manchester having no MPs. That sounds rather like the EU to me!

    Earlier we had a piece about a BBC favourite, Anjan Choudhury. One persistent caller just about got over the message that a lot of people think that Islam is intrinsically bad but that we aren’t allowed to discuss it. Vine countered that by saying that was why there was the term ‘Islamist’, a word like ‘moderate’ and ‘Islamophobia’ that he and his kind have invented to pretend that Islam is ‘good’.

    This is a distinction denied by Muslims, for whom there is but one religion and one god and we are all expected to submit.

With his wife singing and on keyboards, they made three or four albums together. The past perhaps took its toll in other ways later.

    Let us all stop funding UK terrorism!

    It would seem Khalid Masood (Westminster Attack 22.03.2017 5 Innocents Killed) was on benefits which comes out of National Insurance payments by the workers of the UK. Thus, it would seem prior to these findings the workers in the UK were unknowingly funding terrorism.

    But now we know terrorists operate using welfare benefits it would seem we are knowingly paying terrorists.

    Can I suggest that the Government please make sure NI payments by UK workers don’t go into the hands of terrorists by removing the terrorists in the first place. Can you also calculate how much we have/are funded terrorism via welfare benefits by simply getting all known terrorists (left,right,islamic) arrested to-date and those on the watch list and check welfare payments made to them or their immediate family (under various names possibly).

    Another example is where imams preaching intolerance such as Anjem Choudary (preached hate 1999-2016) to his hundreds of worshippers (5 times a day, everyday), can all imams be checked if they are on welfare benefits, paid by UK workers, and these payments be stopped immediately.

    I see the left are deflecting the verdict of the Huddersfield rape gang in various ways One is to draw attention to the fact that one was a Sikh, so it cannot be a Moslem job. Other will deflect with reference to white sexual abusers.

    So I was saddened to see Katie Hopkins’ attack on Tommy Robinson in her Face Book profile when she drew attention to the so called Fred and Rose West rapists of Wales.

    Tommy informs me he was too busy checking his sunbeds to expose these vile creatures and it definitely had nothing to do with them being white.

    Nice one Katie, stick the racist charge on to Tommy Robinson a couple of days before his trial.

    BBC plugging a new programme or even series about the international order and the breakdown , as they see it , of world consensus .
    The plug starts with how 46 nations sent delegates to San Fransisco in 1945 to set up the United Nations .
    The UN is a Good Thing . Anything that is contra to the UN is a Bad Thing .

    So BBC why don’t you abide by the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights signed in Paris on 10 October 1948 ; General Assembly Resoltution 217A , article 12 .
    Which reads
    No on shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family ,home or correspondence, nor to attacks on his honour or reputation . Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks .

    So why the threatograms Al Beeb ? The windows in the envelopes that say such things as This Property Is Under Investigation , Are you In on October 10 , Urgent These Premises Are Unlicensed etc .

    And if you think that Far Right is a Bad Thing ( free pass to the Far Left ) can you prove that Tommy Robinson , the EDL and Football Alliance are far right ? If not that’s further contravening your sacred UN .

      As I hinted when previously debating on this with you Stew, I am not quite so gloomy about electric cars.

      What is clear is that there is an immediate hurdle to get over, the jump to the 200-300 mile range. Fortunately there is a Brit who is working on it and she is a woman!

      Quelle surprise, horreur!

      Why isn’t the BBC all over that? They should be covering it and encouraging it and subsidising it out of their, er, our (if you pay the LF), own pockets.

      There was a very interesting ‘Life Scientific’ with the wonderfully and appropriately named Jim al Khalili with this lady, whose name I unfortunately forget. May possibly be available in the BBC archives.

      She has already been directly involved in one major advance in battery technology. Ought to be considered for a Nobel Prize, especially in the present ‘climate’.

    But I’m perplexed: the beeb have been telling me all along that it has nothing to do with race or religion, and was just an isolated incident involving ‘Three Girls’ in Rochdale. To think otherwise was racist and islamophobic.

    But it now seems to have everything to do with race and religion, and to be a nationwide pandemic.

    Surely the beeb haven’t been misleading me, have they? And if so, what else have they lied about?

    The BBC are rapidly deprioritising the Huddersfield Muslim Rape Gang story. It has lost its priority news spot to
    a) Saudi Arabia admitting to killing a journalist.
    b) A Muslim victimhood story – Five African Muslims died in Birmingham when they were working in a Metal scrapyard and a wall fell on them – this was back in 2016 – and the current story is claiming the British authorities are racist and Islamophobic. Strange timing for this story.
    c) A murder charge for the killing of a black man in London.
    d) More than 150 bird watchers descend on a man’s home in Norwich after he spotted a rarely seen bird in his garden back on 7th October.

    And the time it has taken me to type the above, the story has been further deprioritised so that it has almost disappeared from the UK news page …

    Sp the police first try to form a broken line one block before the antifa blockade, but the FLA crowd push through them
    The police horses come through to take the space
    FLA stand back from the horses
    Then they are lined up about 30 yards before the antifa line sometimes red antifa smoke bombs come over. The FLA can’t get past the line of police horses.
    After a while another lifestreamer back at the one block line says he’s just seen a copper lash out with a truncheon at someones head.
    We see the FLA line run back to help at the one block line
    ..
    The commentator says that’s it and all we see is clam FLA walking around unti the police decide they want to go to towards a black female FLA and grab the flimsy 9 foot long flag pole she has in the air ..police don’t succeed ..she seems like the group mascot and flag bearer.
    Next we see a guy lift his tee shirt to reveal a wound he claims was from police

    It looks like they have mustered the necessary 48 letters to spark a Tory leadership contest. With information from the Irish that even with a no deal, the EU would not insist that the Irish government impose a hard border. So its clear that the Irish border question was being used by the civil service to get an extension, so that its people could take part in the next EU budget. Therefore traitorously throwing away the threat of a “No Deal“, and instead, rewarding the EU with an extra £17 billion for a fake problem. So Theresa May has deliberately or incompetently allowed Oily Robins to snub Brexiteers and Border Technology Experts with solutions, so as to conspire with the EU to create a fake problem that the Civil Service has been using since it created the “Chequers Deal“. So with Theresa May, the EU is now confident that there wont be any “No Deal” and therefore its intransigence has been rewarded with a payment to the EU of at least £56 billion for free trade with the EU for a few years, for 15% of our economy. Therefore preserving Britain’s trade deficit with the EU. All thanks to traitors negotiating Brexit with the EU.

    Scientists would use correlations as a way to judge what is likely to happen if Britain was not a member of the EU. The results are obvious that: (1) Territories with a predominantly British ethnic population, but not in the European Union have a much higher standard of living, due to not paying billions to the EU. (2) Smaller territories have a higher standard of living than larger territories. (3) Canada paying nothing to the EU for free trade, is already a reason why Britain would have an even lower standard of living if Theresa May paid the EU £56 billion for free trade. (4) Anyone who supports the European Union must be either a traitor, ignorant, unintelligent, on the EU gravy train or a white supremacist.

        What this issue does show is that manifestos are meaningless and promises mean nothing

        On the Brillo programme the other night a Labour MP Caroline flint made the observation that if the brexit vote is undermined it will move many further to the right and that Right Wing Extremism – docile and repressed in Blighty will get a boost from the undermining of what remains of democracy here.

      Absolutely no interest in the pattern of grooming, the targeting of young white girls, the mysogonist faith that treats women as meat.

        Of course, I’d be more than pleased to be proven wrong. But it would be interesting to see. Make him watch Lauren Southern’s ‘Farmlands’ first. Those potential refugees get virtually no publicity by the beeb or the MSM, or Toady, where the Dubbs thing was well received, while the people beeb has in mind get smothered in coverage almost non-stop.

Meanwhile, white farmers and their families are under constant threat of brutal attack. So, for that matter, their non-white employees. But somehow they probably don’t qualify as virtue-signalling material.

            Sikh discussion page On Facebook
            “Amere is a Muslim name and Dhaliwal could be a Pakistani surname too”

            If Amere was a Sikh name , you’d expect to find lots of “Amere Singh”s
            but Twitter search never shows one until March 2017 when this one was named in the court case
            \\Amere A variant for Amir which has different derivations.
            in Arabic it means “Prince” //

                  So 99% of paedophile gang rapists across the land are muslim, and one is a Sikh mate of theirs?

                  Well I’m so sorry, I take it all back.

            Dominic says his obsession with TR is cos he has been reporting on him for 9 years
            Yes his early report shows that tommy founded the EDL cos he didn’t want to be in a group which was racist or supremacist
            \\ joining Tommy is an older man called Alan, from London. Later, a young man from Luton turns up with a *mixed-race* teenager from north London, who Tommy says is the head of the “youth wing”.

            “There are town centres now that are plagued by Islamic extremists,” he says. “There are women who don’t want to go shopping because there are 20 men in long Islamic dress shouting anti-British stuff and calling for a jihad and stirring up religious and racial hatred. Those are our town centres, and we want them back.

            “We want them back, not from the Muslims, but from the jihadist extremists that are operating in the Muslim communities. And the Muslim communities need to deal with their extremists…”//

    Took me a while to catch on – have too many distractions – but the BBC made it plain yesterday that their interest in Jamal Khashoggi was only as far as they could attack the Conservative Government in the UK and President Trump’s Administration in the USA.

    After The Humph tripped over Khashoggi’s family name this morning (bit strange that, experienced Presenter and old enough to have used Adnan Khashoggi’s name in news broadcasts in the past) he interviewed a gentleman from Turkey.

    Quietly spoken, he was allowed to speak without much interruption (very pleasant for a change) prompted by the occasional question. He brought some light to the situation and finished by saying, in effect, more evidence, clear evidence is needed.

    A certain froideur entered the studio at that point. Evidence?

    The BBC doesn’t like evidence.

    One other thing has struck me over this whole affair: the quality of espionage and spying is not what it used to be when I was young.

      Same with that lady in America who said she got fondled. Not the porn star. They still like her.

      Meanwhile, No.10 has hung up a red light.

      Seems apt.

    “BIG BROTHER” I know you are head of the Diversity and Positive
    Discrimination dept of the BBC. BUT we just have to mention the
    rape case in our TV and Internet news coverage ,even if it’s just for
    a few hours. We can go back to Grenfell again from tomorrow.”
    “OK, but just this once. Two conditions firstly I want a picture of
    the Sikh being the main perpetrator. And tell Easton when
    he writes his analysis on MY website that he writes this, refering
    to the rape grooming gangs. THEY OFTEN COME FROM IMMIGRANT COMMUNITIES. On no account is Easton to write
    that at least 90% are from Pakistani Muslim heritage.
    And by tomorrow I want this all off the front page and to
    completely disappear by Sunday. And remember by Tuesday
    we are to go full tilt on ROBINSON who anyway is responsible
    for all of this !!!”

    Dear old Mishal is not the sharpest chisel in the tool rack. She interviewed a new National Trust President and used the expression ‘nature is under threat’.

    Unfortunately, in a previous item Mishal had done on the UK’s most numerous (not commonest as Mishal said – there is a difference*) bird, she had a contributor observe how the wren population is extremely fragile but always recovers.

    Ooops!

    (*https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/35935561 – based on observation, hence commonest, but be aware it is two years old, from 2016)
