Start the Week Thread 19 November 2018

The Far Left BBC , as a matter of editorial policy ,

suppresses negative stories about Muslims – rape gangs , terrorism and intimidation

Promotes anti brexit stories

undermines Judeo -Christian religion with its pro Islam propaganda

approves of the drive to limit freedom of speech by criminalising what it does not like

and will only approve its version of Britain using our money to do it .

as part of the tripartite pact of BBC – Guardian -Labour Party the decline of Britain accelerates.

    Tim Martin’s letter in the Times
    Brexit myth
    Sir, The great urban myth, promoted by the advocates of the deadly exchange rate mechanism, the euro and Remain, is that a “deal” with the EU is a prerequisite of future prosperity.
    In reality “no deal” allows the UK to join successful countries like Canada, Singapore, Israel and Australia in the free-trading world.
    By slashing the EU’s 12,651 protectionist tariffs, shop prices will fall, with no loss to the treasury, since tariff income is currently remitted to Brussels.
    The UK will also save £39 billion of reparations, for which there is no legal liability, and regain control of historic fishing waters.
    Thus on March 29, 2019, everyone in the country will be better off financially — and the economic steroids of democracy will take care of the future.
    In reality a deal is a mechanism for remaining trapped in an undemocratic and financially inefficient system.
    Tim Martin
    Chairman, JD Wetherspoon

    The saying “that on it’s own it was worth the television license,”
    does not apply to much on the BBC. But I would say that after
    watching the first two episodes of “Dynasties” the above in my
    opinion applies.
    However I am very much surprised that BIG BROTHER from the
    Diversity and Positive Discrimination dept allowed ,particularly
    the Penguin episode to be shown. At least in the Dave and
    Chimpanzees , the monkey’s got up to plenty of “fraternizing ”
    as monkey’s do. However the penguins have a society of strict
    sexual relations . The Emperor cocks mate with the hens and are
    faithful. This coupled with the fact that all of this was filmed by
    WHITE males. I may be wrong but I didn’t see any women or
    ethnic members of the BBC crew. I may of been snow blind,
    please tell me. BUT if I am correct, how did BIG BROTHER allow
    this to be shown?

    On R5 dead 4pm news round up
    “Kirklees Council has been serving non-stunned halal meat in 42 schools without the knowledge or consent of the majority of pupils and parents. In some schools all of the meat served is non-stunned and there is no alternative option for pupils”.
    A councillor is pushing for an end to this barbarism, foisted upon school children … The extent of the Al BBCs concern appears to be whether or not the councillor has pandered to the Muslim community!, meanwhile the ever helpful council has refused to say which schools are affected..

      A conservative councillor tabled a question
      ” which was not heard due to time constraints”
      It appears schools get to choose the source of their meat
      “back 2006 consultation resulted in the Halal Monitoring Committee (HMC) becoming the accrediting body.” And ” the HMC only certifies non-stunned meat as halal.”
      Also \\ Last year Lancashire County Council banned meat from animals that have not been stunned from council-supplied school meals.
      The move was described as “hugely discriminatory”. // (why ?)

      Why the H should stunned or non-stunned halal meat be supplied to schools-what is wrong with British meat being served-if the parents of Muslim pupils insist on their chidren eating halal killed meat then let them do so when in their own homes. Never heard anything so daft as to why our Council/schools should ever consider alowing such Islamic halal killed food in British Schools. Further Never should a Muslim be allowed to become a Governor of a school and so not presume to push for their style of meat or anything else for thet amtter-they are not of this country, holding a British passport does not make them British as they originate from another nation whose ideology is completely alien to the Britsh Ideology of life here. Allowing Islam such a hold into our Society will eventually lead to civil unrest as already much leniency had been affiorded this group much to the upset of many. Lee Rigsby but to name but one isue whose murderer who would once have been hanged is now being removed to a special unit @ £ 250K per annum-madness complete and utter madness.

      That’s probably due to them having a disproportionate amount of time devoted to them by teachers, anxious not to be seen as discriminatory. My local primary school had young boys lagging behind the girls in core subjects. Girls generally perform better at that age. The Headteacher decided to devote a greater amount of resources to them and after a year or so, the girls were the ones who underachieved!

    Donald Trump says “May has wrecked Brexit”, “US trade deal is off”.
    Jacob Rees-Mogg has warned that without a change of leadership and Brexit strategy the party will let Jeremy Corbyn and his hard-Left colleagues into Downing Street. Polls show Labour four points ahead of the Tories, with UKIP now at 9 percent. A summit has been held to agree who should be the next Prime Minister. Donald Trump wants Boris. It looks like many letters are post-dated.

    Theresa May tenaciously fights back by using a new “Project Fear” strategy, threatening to drop Brexit if they don’t accept her Remain-plus-vassalage Brexit deal. Most people are not frightened by this because her Brexit deal is actually “Brexit means Remain-Plus-Vassalage” which is worse than Remain because we wont be able to vote for any UKIP MEP’s.

      Good post, Richard.

      The one really great we need is President Trump; the rest can go jump in the lake! The BBC are doing their best to stir up the mess we’re in too.

      Mrs Chamberlain is now in a corner, betraying her country and hanging onto her disgraceful civil-service-style ‘negotiation’ to get absolutely nothing for all of us who wanted to get rid of the EU, and also the smell of all the charlatans like the Kinnocks, Mandelson, Major and of course, the arch-liar, Blair.

      There will be hell to pay before she eventually gets kicked out, and I for one will never vote Conservative again, especially as my MP is Greg Clark who is very good at doing feck all, as well as being a remainer.

      Luckily, ‘Ol’ raincoat’ Joe Corrobin hasn’t a clue either – I’m sorry about the political dementia he suffers from, but there again, his Shudder ‘Home Secretary’ is illiterate on numbers as well, so they can ring up all the other old farts like Clarke, Major et al, and sit round pondering their wrinkled navels and drink a lonely vodka to remember what it was like in the old days…

    Things you will not find on the BBC Part lots. You may think that the French fuel protests, Gillette Jaunes, ended on Saturday. HIdden away in the report is a possibility that some protestors camped out overnight and continued on Sunday. Well, from personal experience, they were still going strong all around Perpignan today, Monday. The A9 toll route had been blocked all over both into and out of Spain. We skipped round a lot by going on the back roads, but eventually got trapped, and managed 1 km in 1 hour. MInd you, the technique of playing ABBA’s Waterloo at full blast right by the road block got us a personal police escort through the blockade. Other suitable tunes are available.

    Dear Donald Trump
    I write to remind you of a precedent set by your predecessor osama bin obama.

    obama, at the request of the semi-traitorous David Cameron, threatened the UK with economic oblivion, in an attempt to further the aims of the globalists.

    This was the most dangerous speech since the worst president in US history, another Commie, named Roosevelt, pretended to assist the UK during WW2, when his real aim was to ensure the survival of his beloved USSR.

    Due the totally traitorous organism who suceeded Cameron the UK now faces political oblivion.
    Which is even more welcome to the globalists.

    The latest example of the treachery towards European people, which has been the policy of the EU during its protean transformation from a discussion group.

    Mr Trump, the UK needs the assistance of the USA right now. Political and military assistance.
    Patriots in the UK would welcome US military assistance to remove our native traitors.

    With the unsinkable aircraft carrier firmly in the control of Europeans it would be a minor matter
    to then invade mainland Europe, arrest and execute the traitors, and return freedom to the European states.

    Whilst planning for this military intervention takes place a few pithy speeches from yourself denouncing the guilty and their treason would be most welcome.

    God bless America.

    Five Live excelled themselves Sunday night with an hour on the ‘gender orgasm gap – just like the gender pay gap!’ A brilliant equalities professional has done a survey – that hallmark of intellectual rigour – and apparently women are less likely to orgasm during sex. (The whole multiple orgasm thing seems a better deal to me but that does not fit their victimhood narrative.)

    As well as being crass the programme had that nasty stench of hating men. I managed two minutes before switching over. It is one thing to not like a programme but to be viscerally disgusted is quite an achievement.

    Women have an extreme sexual power over men which is never discussed by the ‘equalities’ Stasi; a power infinitely stronger than one could quantify. Men compete to offer them money and protection; that heinous ‘pay gap’ is caused mostly by men wanting to earn more money which they can then spend on women. It really is a fantastic sleight of hand to spin that into some sort of ‘oppression.’ Of course those whining about the oppression are mostly bitter women who were never loved and protected by men and who hate them because of this.

    Guido shares a “robust” discussion, all right, a fevered row, between Brexiteer Peter Lilly and the BBC’s Chris Morris.

    Morris’ view is that the EU is a wonderful institution and that remainers are dumb f**ks. Lilly points out to Morris, the BBC’s “fact checker”(!!!!), a string of facts which agitates Morris. As you can imagine Morris has never before heard anyone offer facts for leaving so just starts spluttering angrily.

    Worth 6 minutes of your time.

      I listened to the interview between David Davis and Bloomberg on YouTube. From what was said, it was half implied that the Gove cabal who remain in Cabinet to try and reason with Treezer, will give up if unsuccessful and default to the > 48 letters already held by the party HQ.
      Curiously, for a PM who has screwed everything up from day one, the Cons. politicians say in unison, “she’s a good PM and we would not want to replace her”. Will that stance change if she does not respond positively to the Gove cabal?
      But, “….a good PM…”? That statement demonstrates they live somewhere in another parallel universe. Fact is, Treezer takes her instructions from the Globalists/EU not the voting public. The public are increasingly viewed as merely tax cows to be milked as much as possible. How else would they finance their hair brain schemes?

        Apart from the normal rough and tumble of politicking my guess is that these politicians have never been personally bitten by establishment corruption – hence their “parallel universe” where all MPs are “honourable.”

        My nightmare is that the agreement will pass in the HoC (?) and the EU (illegally).

        This article seems to confirm the conspiracy angle.

        https://brexitcentral.com/shocked-i-say-appear-establishment-conspiracy-brexit/

        The plan was to get the UK back into full EU membership in time for the European Parliamentary elections of 2024, meaning we would have only technically been outside for one term, 2019-2024.

        a “purgatory backstop” would be used to persuade the UK to reapply for membership rather than languish in the equivalent of EU solitary confinement on a diet of bread and water.

        We won’t be hearing Lord Lilley on the Far Left BBC again . A proper conservative .

        I’ve always thought that the Toady technique of an ‘interview ‘ then an uncontested ‘interpretation’ by a beeboid was just –

        Corrupt journalism

        Designed to re spin any comments made which did not conform to The Far Left BBB view’ .

        I’m sure that the editors of Toady today -a certain mork and Mindy were too scared of Lord Lilley to cut him off because they knew he would accuse them, rightly , of unfairness .

        The segment rebroadcast on guido is worth every second of its six minutes …

        As an aside – the smug beeboid ‘fact’ checker almost lost it which was also worth the popcorn .

        Interestingly Humph didn’t use the normal ‘we re running out of time ‘crap the BBC normally uses to cut any interview which might actually inform the listener as opposed to pumping out Far Left multicultural anti white,anti male propaganda .

          John Humhrys: Well, the Canada deal took seven years.

          Peter Lilley: Yes, but that’s because they started with 10,000 tariffs and they had to negotiate their removal, not just with the other side but with their domestic industries that had become protected behind them.
          We start with zero tariffs. We want to end with zero tariffs. Tell me how that can take more than 10 minutes to negotiate? The other thing that you have to negotiate is to get your rules and regulations equivalent and remove any that are artificial barriers to trade. That normally takes years and is very difficult. We start with identical rules and regulations.
          How can that take very long to end up with identical rules and regulations? All you’ve got to negotiate is a system for dealing when one side or other changes their rules and regulations. That could be done within months, if not we leave on World Trade Organisation terms as we trade with America and many other countries and start negotiating then just as Canada did, but we start where Canada ended up. So it can be done quite quickly.

    Do you remember one of the peaks of the FakeNews crisis at BBC Radio 4? Do you remember Ritula Shah’s brave claim that the BBC is 100% accurate or at least tries to be, unlike the new media who are all in the pay of shady Russian gangsters trying to overthrow Hillary Clinton and promoting Vote Leave to uneducated oldies in the UK?

    Well, that old GCSE fail at Geography came back to bite Ritula last night on TWT and diminish the 100% BBC Accuracy somewhat.

    Apparently, Ramsgate has been moved to the south coast of Kent, despite its proximity to Dover (mentioned) and Folkestone (not mentioned) in the programme’s consideration of transport blockages with France after the end of March next year. Also on the erroneous BBC, a lack of mention that Ramsgate was a Hovercraft port.

    “Turn the atlas through ninety degrees, Ritula. Keep North facing upwards and East will be by your right hand. Er, right hand – that’s this one. (Waving – and drowning in the BBC howlers.) South and West are next in that order in a clockwise direction.”

      Yes, a group of us have been discussing this at work. According to the Express: “Ken Marsh, the chairman of the Metropolitan Police Federation, said forces may even let criminals go if the public does not “stand up for what is right” and prevent yobs from viciously attacking them”.

      And whose fault is that? There was general agreement on two points:

      1. If you insist on criminalising people for their thoughts and their jokes, you are going to lose support.
      2. Unless you are suitably trained, nobody in their right mind would take on a (probably) drugged up 18 year old without arming himself with a spanner or whatever happens to be in the boot of the car. That opens up the possibility of serious injury or even death to the yob on the receiving end. Who, in 2018, can honestly say that the Criminal Justice System would treat them fairly in that situation? I never used to think this way but, sorry plod , you’re on your own.

      And lastly, the MSM only seem to be concerned with violence in London (when they report it at all):

      Crime rates in Northumbria and Durham are now HIGHER than London

      It’s a widespread problem and the police are failing up and down the country, particularly (but not exclusively) where brown faces are involved). We all know about Rotherham. Ancient churches in Wiltshire are losing their lead roofs and nobody is interested. It goes on and on but does anybody seriously believe that “austerity” is the problem?

    The bBC as the “ringmaster” for the public sector has been singularly unable to point out the advantages of being able to trade freely with like minded partners around the world while maintaining a friendly disposition to the EU bloc.

    This and the evidence that civil servants have been in charge of “negotiations” possibly explains the current impasse.

    The question is why was the civil service scenario not called out earlier in this turgid process?
    It seems clear that the public sector and civil service mentality often underscores their preferred outcome when faced with change; i.e it settles on the appearance of change.
    Thus avoiding the opportunities and new challenges as exemplified by Tim Martin, Wotherspoons in an earlier contribution.
    Surely its not too late to send in some heavyweight negotiators.

A recent example i’d like to give is when a BBC World Service interviewer kept quiet as a Cape Town official said South Africa would save water by cutting down the eucalyptus trees there. It only required the interviewer to do some easy to find research on the internet to challenge the nonsense the official was talking. https://netanyalynette.blogspot.com/2018/11/cape-town-eucalyptus-trees.html

      I’ll be interested to see how the BBC sets the historical context for “Gentleman Jack”, given that the roles models for the real Anne Lister were Lady Eleanor Butler and Sarah Ponsonby, who ran away together in 1778.

      Anne Lister visited them at their home together in Llangollen. Far from being ostracised the two ladies were also visited by artists, business people and politicians, for example, Wordsworth, Shelley, Byron, Scott, Wedgewood, the Duke of Wellington and Lady Caroline Lamb (a second cousin of Lady Eleanor). That all might be ignored if facts get in the way of the BBC’s politics.

      OK for religious head wear to be worn in Congress. Then make it permissible for all religions to wear their head gear, including Pastafarians, members of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
      It is a recognised religion in many countries and US states. They should be allowed to wear their sacred colander which is allowed on passports and driving licences in many countries.

      As a religion it is more coherent and less violent than Islam; it respects the US Constitution and promises an afterlife with access to beer fountains.

    It seems to me that the bBBC really do underestimate the DUP, looking at them as fundamentalist hicks from a backwater and ignoring the educational and professional backgrounds of their MPs and disdainful to the fact that they come from a political environment where standing up for your beliefs may well actually be a life or death situation not just a danger to your reputation in the Guardian.

    It seems that the Conservative party leadership should reassess their opinion of them as well, because comments such as this won’t help. Last week, after the surrender to the EU had been announced, James Brokenshire lauded it as being the best way “to maintain the unique relationship that we have with Northern Ireland”.

    What, in the same way as you have a relationship with the US or France or Eire? A relationship with a foreign government, with somewhere separate to the rest of the United Kingdom, separate and not part of? Are the Northern Irish people who regard themselves as British, still the majority of the population and the DUP themselves, not “we” aswell? Talk about a slap in the face, why would the DUP turn the other cheek to that one?

    The bBBC did of course broadcast his comments but couldn’t work out that the fact that a former N I Secretary of State and vocal supporter and friend of May clearly sees part of the United Kingdom as somewhere to negotiate with and not for, might go a long way to explain why the DUP do not trust the British Govt at all at the moment and will not and should not support them.

        Fed,

        In Northern Ireland many Roman Catholics now seem to care more about their Nationalist/ Republican culture, politics and identity than about any religious teachings or beliefs. Some DUP policies are much, much closer to the teachings of the Catholic church than the policies of the parties voted for by Catholics here, Sinn Fein and the SDLP. Here’s an example of the mindset that this Nationalist culture is cultivating that many Protestants here find increasingly frustrating and alienating, and helping to polarize communities even more.

        Yesterday in the Belfast Telegraph it was reported that Belfast City Council had to remove posters advertising Britains Got Talent auditions from council properties because they showed the Union Flag and Nationalist workers were offended by this. Seriously.

        This was on the same day that Sinn Fein announced that their newest candidate for election to the same council, whose Sinn Fein Mayor refused to attend the city’s recent Remembrance Day services, would be a convicted female IRA terrorist. Shauneen Baker served ten years because she was caught carrying a bomb on a bus in a toilet attempt to blow up Belfast City Airport. She was still a teenager when she hid the bomb by pretending to be pregnant. She was probably trained by another Sinn Fein convicted terrorist, Carol Ni Cuillen, who was her sister in law and once NI Minister for Culture.

        Both stories were mentioned by the bBBC and apparently Nolan discussed the posters this morning, but like certain stories concerning a specific community in mainland Britain, these articles don’t seem to remain news for long.

          The idea that “ Britain’s Got Talent” being offensive to Repubilicans is beyond funny . Doesn’t stop them from taking UK benefits though do it?

      Rich-
      You are Ms May.
      You work only for the ‘national interest’.
      You are there to stay.
      It’s your deal or no deal; the latter would be bad (you’ve changed your mind).
      The DUP won’t play ball.
      The country is in crisis.
      What options have you, whereby you wouldn’t need the DUP?
      Ah yes…
      There are other parties in parliament.
      And that nice Ms Merkel has stayed afloat for years, courtesy of her Grand Coalition with the Socialists.
      It can be done.
      Could Jeremy and chums be tempted with Jags and red boxes?
      Surely, ‘in a crisis’, and if it were in the ‘national interest’ ‘the people’ wouldn’t mind?
      The bbc etc would have to like it. After all, they have the odd former Labour minister on board…
      Are you now not a wee bit tempted?

    ***SPOILER: RUDE WORDS***

    #SexTakeover on Radio5 today sure is a big bag of grubby fun.

    Dr Christian Jessen is on, directing listeners to the Twitter feed where there’s a picture of “what can happen when your sex life gets a little too adventurous…” (I won’t link it here, it’s a very graphic picture of a man who managed to get himself stuck in a Coke bottle.)

    Female beeb presenter sounds shocked at results of (Twitter?) survey which shows 97% of parents would not be happy with their teen daughters owning vibrators. How unprogressive of them.

    If you’re still paying the licence fee, save some cash and find a cheaper deal elsewhere (apparently pornography is available on the internet these days)

      Thank for the warning . Being in a bad mood I was just getting ready to get my right hand out and reach for my ‘delete button’ when I read your post and couldn’t find any thing to get off .

      However I must warn you that mentioning a brand of cola drink without saying that other brands are available breaches the Far Left code of something or other . . ( smiley face thingy )

      —— being overseas and warm at the moment the international site was leading with the Spanish PM refusing to sign off on the May Munich sell out because he is not happy with Gibraltar .

      I don’t know what GIb has done apart from existing with a great big Union flag on it but my hope for an excellent non agreement has lifted a bit .

        Sorry Fedup2, we have been told the Surrender agreement cannot be renegotiated, Spain will have to suck it up.

      Ah but he only resorted to “doing coke” because he had difficulty getting his 7 up!

        You’re getting close to being ‘ off subject’.
        Maybe breakfast tv will have a week on ‘ insertions ‘ . Followed by wimins hour and a splendid section on ‘ you and yours’
