Being cold and damp and in da house – I thought I’d look over the provisions of the Referendum Act 2000 as amended .
I’d forgotten that the Act sets up the Electoral Commission – which has been proved to be a biased remainer – pro labour outfit .
And of course the Electoral Commission will preside over any coming Referendum . In other words – it will be fixed .
I support my assertion about being pro labour because of the announcement – last week – that Labour had been fined £12K for election irregularities . An announcement made at a time to engage minimum attention .
The MSM will not look at the fairness of their ‘friends ‘ in the commission for reasons of bias .
At risk of inspiring a fit of vapours in the mods, but the author deserves credit.
Trump is still not in the clear for the assassination of President Kennedy though. Can he prove he wasn’t in Dallas that day? Buzzfeed really needs to get on top of this one, it will surely lead to impeachment.

Guest Who,
I can’t believe that the BBC, brimful as it is with feminists raging against sexist males, would put up a photo on the website of a girl who has to wait for a man to change her tire!!
For which I was unaware there was insurance.
Unless a flat is deemed an accident.
I think by labeling the individual ‘girl’ and assuming gender you’ve committed some sort of hate crime TT, off for reeducation you go. Perhaps the term ‘individual’ is one too? Don’t really know whats safe to say anymore, but then that’s the point isn’t it.
They might get further mileage out of the image should the yellow vest protests ever get covered, nice to see the bbc watching the pounds and pence.

Would it ever cross what there is of Mishal’s mind to ask what a fourteen-year-old was doing unsupervised by his parents or other adults in a dangerous confrontation with Israeli troops.
(That’s a rhetorical question and so I thought it unnecessary to add a question mark.)
And of course she would never speculate that the child might have been egged on by said adults.

Saturday Kitchen picks up the agenda. They had some Californian tangerine growers literally weeping about their concern for the poor ‘migrants’. No-one else would pick their hobby crop and those people in the cities just didn’t understand that there should be no borders. These ‘migrants’ just wanted to work.
But surely they only need one lot of ‘migrants’ with proper applications and ‘green cards’? I suspect that a batch of ‘migrants’ works cheaply for these hobby farmers, pay no taxes and then melt away into the great USA, only to be replaced by another batch next season.
It has been said that cotton growing was only viable in the early days because of slave labour. Mechanisation meant that slaves were no longer needed. These Californian ‘migrants’ are just one rung up from slaves.

Similarly automation should have obviated the need for enrichment, but did not.

“Why your name matters in the search for a job” Because British people are all racist says the BBC:
https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-46927417
The study showed that apparently:
“While 24% of white British applicants received a call back from UK employers, only 15% of ethnic minority applicants did.”
I frankly find it inplausible 24% of people are getting a callback, i’d be suprised if it wasn’t more than 10%. Also it does not give any breakdown of the type of jobs involved… for example we know that we have up to a million Islamic child rape victims, and each victim might have been raped by more than 7 different perpetrator (as seen in a recent typical case where 55 men were arrested for abusing 7 children.
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/child-sex-abuse-gangs-could-5114029
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8195535/arrest-fifty-five-men-west-yorkshire/
That’s 7.85 abusers per child, so a Million Islamic child abuse victims could mean 7 million Perpetrators… we have less that 2 Million Muslim men i the country, this suggests that the Muslim community is awash which infidel child rape.
Would you want to employ a Muslim in any position where they had contact with children, such as teachers, social service, child care, ice cream sales man ect?, I certainly would not want a Muslim in contact with my daughter, not anymore.
Than we know that employing a Muslim in any retail or hospitality job, or even any customer facing could be an invite for trouble. We know that many Muslims will refuse to server non-halal products… at the moment this is alcohol, pork, non-halal meat.
Soon this craziness could extend to other non-halal items, because in Islam “images of living things” are harem and so is music, in fact any non-blessed item could be haram… so they could soon be refusing to serve items based on their packaging, or non-halal flour.
Then of course, they can refuse to shake hands, refuse to handle any financial product that is non halal, cover their face, disappear several times every day for prayers which requires meetings to be rescheduled or delayed, then they disappear every Friday afternoon, that’s an extra 25 days holiday over the year. Then they expect non-Muslms to reorient their entire social time to accommodate Islamic customs… even this BBC article complains that:
“Most of the socialising in the industry revolves around drinking and this culture excludes people from Muslim backgrounds.”
So rather than 4% of the population adapting to 90%+ pf the population, the 90% are meant to change to accommodate the minority.
Why are Muslms even allowed in this country???
Diversity is our strength?, what a ******* joke.
The BBC has replied to the Labour Party’s accusation that the Shadow Home Secretary has a nasty time for her appearance fee ( £1000) on the flagboat Question Time .
Don’t know . Didn’t see . But I do know that there were more girls on the panel than boys so she couldn’t play the sexism game . Instead she plays the race card to cover her inadequacy .
At least the cash can help to pay the school fees .
£1000?, i doubt she can even count to 1000.
… and before anyone says “not all Muslims”… i worked in engineering with several Muslims, and ALL of them were disrupting meeting with prayers, and disappearing on a Friday afternoon.
Also, because there were several they felt empowered to refuse to shake hands with women as well. for Christmas dinner we ended up in a curry house that did not serve alcohol, and I was told to eat my ham sandwich outside because it was offensive…. imagine if i had refused?
What a bloody cheek!
I would have refused and made sure I had a pint in one hand and a bacon sarnie in the other.
If they don’t like our ways then there’s an easy solution.

Vlad,
Hannah Summers, the little girls mother, is a freelance journalist based in London who writes regularly for the Guardian. Says a whole lot doesn’t it? She’s also lying through her teeth.
Fireman Sam was first shown on the the bBBC in the late 80s and has had a female firefighter called Penny since early on, and definitely since the early 90s when Ms Summers probably watched children’s tv herself. In fact Penny is one of the main characters in the updated cgi version currently on Channel 5.
Fireman Sam is immensely popular, and has always been pretty PC, with loads of toys and merchandising to advertise and promote it. It is unbelievable that a child, who is blonde and female, interested in becoming a firefighter doesn’t know that there is a character called Penny, blonde and female, who is a firefighter in this cartoon shown regularly on 5. She’s also a scuba diver and lifeguard and is in charge of the rescue boat apparently. A really positive role model to show Esme if her mother could be arsed doing a bit of parenting rather than posing.
But it’s not on the the bBBC anymore and so there it is, Vlad, much as their sports coverage often proves, if the bBBC don’t have it, it doesn’t exist. Throw in yet more feminist bullshit and the bBBC grab get another opportunity to present their nonsensical views as news and shitstir as only they can.
I’m thinking of writing to the BBC.
For the sake of diversity we need to be informed and reminded ALL YEAR LONG that this year is the Chinese year of the pig.
We need a pig graphic between all the programs this year. They’ve done it with hippos, they can do it with pigs. Doesn’t the BBC LOVE Asians and customs of diverse cultures? Let’s see it then.
This is a Year of Earth Pig, starting from Feb. 5, 2019 (Chinese New Year) and lasting to Jan. 24, 2020. Pig is the twelfth in the 12-year cycle of Chinese zodiac sign. The Years of the Pig include 1923, 1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007, 2019, 2031, 2043..

I seem to remember Cameron saying that we would be able to de-select our local MPs by some kind of petition or 10% of voters, something like that.
Did anything ever come of that or was it a politician’s promise.
If we are able to do anything about the MPs who are supposed to represent us then why are there all these MPs going against their constituencies. Why have they not been at least threatened with de-selection for ignoring us.
How are soubry, Rudd, grieve and about 400 other honourables still in a job when their allegiance is with the eu and against their own constituencies.
I guess it was just politicians promising then discarding when elected.

More truth from AMW – 45 mins.

The Labour stormtroopers are out in force with their media mouthpieces in full support…backstabbing their old pal the Corbyn supporting BBC.
This is of course just business as usual for Labour using a tactic honed and perfected from the 1930’s [lol]….
Before two years had passed, the theory as well as the technical methods of Social Democracy were clear to me.
I understood the infamous spiritual terror which this movement exerts, particularly on the bourgeoisie, which is neither morally nor mentally equal to such attacks; at a given sign it unleashes a veritable barrage of lies and slanders against whatever adversary seems most dangerous, until the nerves of the attacked persons break down and, just to have peace again, they sacrifice the hated individual.
However, the fools obtain no peace.’
Labour’s very own stormtroopers mount a barrage of attacks on the media outlets, never mind that they are friendly ones. They hope to intimidate and bully journalists into submission and to scare them into not saying anything negative about the Leader however justified and accurate.
Compare how the BBC reports on Trump and Corbyn in relation to Nato…Trump demands European countries pay what they are supposed to pay and thus improve Nato’s defences whilst Corbyn says Nato should be dismantled. Which if them do you think the BBC reports as damaging and undermining Nato? It’s not Corbyn.
Corbyn must get the most friendly and anodyne level of reporting in the history of political reporting from the BBC. Serious critical challenges barely arise from BBC mouths and yet when any hint of a question arises about Der Jeremy the stormtroopers storm into action.
Hence we get the ‘outraged’ reaction to Question Time and claims that Diane Abbott was the victim of racism and sexism…never mind that Anand Menon, clearly Asian, was treated with total respect by all, he was interrupted but only to ask cogent questions, and other women on the panel were interrupted in exactly the same way that Abbott was…all by a woman Chair.
Diane Abbott accuses BBC Question Time of legitimising racism
‘Diane Abbott has accused BBC Question Time of legitimising racist abuse after claims that the shadow home secretary was singled out before and during Thursday night’s episode of the political discussion programme.
The Labour politician claimed she had been unfairly mocked in the warm-up and had been interrupted more often than other panellists by Fiona Bruce, the programme’s new chair.
“We are appalled by the treatment of Diane Abbott on BBC’s Question Time,” a spokesperson for Abbott said. “It was clear that a hostile atmosphere was whipped up, propped up by reports of inappropriate and sexist commentary in the audience warm-up session.’
Trouble is, watch the programme above, none of that is true, though I can’t speak of the warm up, but it is highly unlikely Fiona Bruce engaged in racist abuse or went out of her way to target Abbott with undue mockery during that. Abbott is well known for her many and hilarious [if it weren’t so shocking as Shadow Home Secretary] faux pas….the warm-ups are just that and I’m sure the other guests were treated to exactly the same level of humorous ‘banter’ as Abbott. Dimbleby was well known for sneery introductions of right-wingers during the actual programme….Bruce refrained from that except to add that Isabel Oakeshott was an ardent Leaver…not labelling any other guest for their Brexit leanings.
It’s a shame Abbott resorts to the race card and accuses Fiona Bruce of being racist and mysogynist…..the audience had hardly been ‘whipped up in a hostile atmosphere’ against Abbott….she got many cheers throughout and I never heard any booing as claimed had happened…but even if there had been any that would be for the policies she espoused and the evasions and refusal to answer questions that meant she was far from clear about what Labour wanted from a Brexit deal…nothing personal.
Bruce in no way interrupted her any more than any other panel member…all interruptions were clear questions designed to clarify specific points…and Bruce interrupted everybody in exactly the same manner…I thought she did a pretty good job and did bring a level of calm debate and incisiveness that Dimbleby often failed to provide….look at how she got to the kernel of the no-deal issue as to whether May could indeed actually back out of that legally. We got a clear answer…not something we often got on the more shambolic, shouty, oppositional, smartarse Dimbleby QT’s.
Utter disgrace Abbott and her camp followers try to label Bruce a racist and a sexist….utter rubbish…but a sample of what the BBC uber liberals have brought to the world and illustrates to them how using this language and these tactics to silence your opponents can be turned on them as well as the apparent ‘Nazis’ like Nigel Farage and all those racist, bigoted Leave voters.
The only racist here is Abbott who quite without foundation accuses people of being racist…why?….because they are white. Maybe the police should have a chat as she spreads her racist, hate-filled messages and feeds the narrative that Blacks are always the victim of white oppression and racism. Why should what are clearly cynical, malicious and false claims of racism made for political advantage not be treated as themselves hate-crimes….the effect is as serious, if not more serious, in the context that they are made, than the general racism that may happen elsewhere. The result of such high-profile, hyperbolic, sensationalist and false claims of the type that Abbott makes all the time is a very heightened sense of being under attack if you are black or from another minority and deliberately whips up anger, a sense of hopelessness and marginalisation and division in such communities….it feeds conflict and racism rather than helping minorities advance and succeed. All these left-wing media groupies should be shredding Abbott for her approach to this and her exploitation of black people for her own political objectives.
Note that the polls do say Labour are well behind the Tories and that in QT Abbott herself admitted this but went on to say it doesn’t matter because the polls showed Labour was 20 points behind in the 2017 election and look how that went….the Abbott supporters claim this correction from Bruce pointing out the actual polling was racist and sexist.
‘The Momentum campaign group launched a petition demanding the BBC apologise after Bruce backed claims that Labour was behind in the opinion polls.
The Momentum petition referred to an exchange where panellist Isabel Oakeshott said that Labour were “way behind in the polls” and Abbott replied that “we are kind of level-pegging” before Bruce said that Labour were “definitely” behind. But recent polling has found the two parties roughly neck and neck.’
This is YouGov from 13-14 jan……..
‘ Ms Abbott told BBC Question Time: “Just as a point of information, currently in the polls overall we are currently level pegging.”
Mr Oakeshott blasted: “You’re six points behind.”
The Question Time audience chuckled when host Fiona Bruce added: “You’re behind, Diane. Definitely.”
The veteran Labour MP replied: “Yes, but we went into the last general election 20 points behind and Theresa May was convinced she was going to smash us.’
“I believe that if we could make up 20 points in the last general election, I believe we can win any forthcoming general election.”
The Question time host added: “Well, you need to have a general election and you have tried and you have failed so far.”
Pug
The cynic in me says this episode was set up to defend the BBC against allegations of routine bias . If the next episode is equally ‘fair’ then I will be proved wrong and maybe QT is worth watching again .
Whatever the case in the most recent programme Isabel Oakeshott was the only brexiter on the panel .
I don’t think this evidence that proves Theresa May is a traitor will appear on BBC News for a while?
Apparently the EU had planned to give Britain a comprehensive Free Trade Deal if Theresa May had walked out of the room. But Theresa wanted the fake Brexit Deal constructed by Oily Robbins. Evidence of treachery exists in a transcript of a secret tape recording of a Civil Servant called Alastair Brockbank, who is the defence adviser to Oliver Robbins, author of the Chequers deal that was written behind the backs of her Brexit Ministers, who then resigned. Alastair Brockbank explains openly an intention to hoodwink the British public with what he calls ‘fluffy language’ which will seemingly conform to the mandate to Leave. But in the defence area, the language and the technical agreements will all lock us into a subordinate role in defence and security under the EU. Another civil servant, a woman called Victoria Billing says it’s like a Kit Kat bar, you have a shiny label on the outside which seemingly conforms to the will of the people to leave the EU, but inside you’ve got a chocolate bar which is constructed to keep us engaged with, it is in fact Hotel California, the Eagles song, “You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave” or BRINO as people now call it, Brexit In Name Only.
Yes, the Kit Kat tapes were published by The Sun last year.

Public inquiry into the bias in the BBC
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/234797
Theisland,
You mean these people:
It’s always been a joke that civil servants are apolitical . This may have been moot befor Blair took power but by the end of his time the Civil Servants had been totally infiltrated by the Left
And remain so . Other state agencies are the same – particularly the police and judiciary .
Richard – thank you for adding flesh to the bones of these events .
The So called “first division “ of civil servants are now more like the ‘vanderama league’ or what ever the 4th division is called now .

@Scroblene that tweet has 2 parts : the text , and a graphic
In it’s original form the graphic appears above the tweet, so that is how it’s meant to be read.
Here on B-BBC for some reason the text appears below the graphic
– Tweets are limited to 288 characters and the BBC wanted to convey a longer message, so it did that by making a graphic with the words in and then attaching that to the tweet.
Clicking on a tweet’s timestamp opens up its thread
You’ll see the original tweet has part1 : “For those who haven’t seen it, we also said this yesterday”
followed by part 2 : here’s our text
Stew, thank you very much for explaining all this – at last I’m beginning to see how all this works! (I only make four mobile calls a year, to keep the line free for emergencies, so texting is out as well)!
You can see that I’ve been up early to find out, and while a Remy (Tesco) isn’t really a good idea at this ungodly hour, a large mug of Yorkshire Gold is doing the trick!
Actually, it’s not so bad at this time of day, as ‘the rest of the day’s your own’, well, up to 7:00am when it all gets going!
Stew… thanks for that. That I could explain twitter gave me pause as I illuminated a script. But now I, too, know.

Guest, me being a bit of an old fart who doesn’t do twitter or bookface, and you, being a skilled and articulate poster here, with results that I enjoy immensely, would you mind awfully, explaining to me how to read any of these ’twilliter’ posts please?
Does the bottom bit (the stuff from ‘bbc news team in this instance’ – “team”…paaaaah) stand as an original twitt (?), and the top bit in the ‘box’ mean it’s an answer, or is it the other way round? Did the bbbc team say that to describe what they’ve done – or maybe forgotten?
I get so confused when they try and double back on their ‘twotts’, that I have to ask – please believe me!
BTW, I’ve been blogging longer than ‘twonker’, and really should know these things, but it all seems a bit odd to me…
And to finish up, before I pour a large Remy, (Tesco actually), somehow, the Tweets coming from President Trump strike a chord, and mean something, while the bbbc just flounders around and asks opinions from idiots like Ms Abbott, Ms Toynbee and their feral son Owing Jaunes… (Does Owing wear a Primark Gillette I wonder)?
That Remy (Tesco) will go down a treat I can assure you, even if I have to stay up all night to see if my pleas for instruction are granted!
(And to cap it all, our DVD player has just gone on the blink! While I’m in Tesco on Monday, buying a new one, I’ll probably stock up on Remy (Tesco), for the coming weeks – a crate should just about do it…)!

Last week Mr D and I gave serious consideration on whether to give up on Les Mis but gave it another go. As we are getting more and more depressed by the antics of people like Grieve on B…..

What will happen after Brexit. A warning from Tatania McGrath who is never wrong
Most of that video seems quite positive. I think it is tongue-in-cheek.
I think that the BBC have been hoisted by their own petard with regard to Question Time this week.
The very, very positive result from the audience when Leave was mentioned said it all. It must have shaken the foundations of the BBC. A tremor of terror!
All these events are funneling the government towards a proper Brexit. A Brexit that was voted for and must not be denied.
Emily Mateless in full deranged SJW mode and this guy slamming her.
The close up of Maitless with the eyes and the Hitchcock sound effects is classic. It tells us that the BBC are moving from a sixth form school newspaper reporters to complete crazies. Mad Mateless cannot interview, cannot even argue but simply recites a list of labels – xenophobic anti moslem etc – from a script supplied by the Socialist Worker Party, where you will see many with zombie eyes like hers.
I get the feeling that beeboids might be a bit afraid of interviewing Hungarian politicians . Maitliss is obviously a Muslim convert in her enthusiasm for that false religion . Beeboids deserve to be confronted for their lies and arrogance – British politicians have been bred to be compliant because they know the state broadcaster has a malicious streak when challenged .
I bet Hungary is a really nice country and really good at deporting the third world getting through their border fences .
Sadly Wndsor Davies has passed away. As at tribute will Al Beeb dare to run the series ‘It Ain’t Half Hot Mum’, uncensored or is it too Non-Pc?
How about snowflakes ? No?

“Ere, these don’t look like Hackney lads to me”
… I’m guessing they were Uber drivers ..hence waiting in cars at 3am, near a nightclub
OwenJones84 hasn’t tweeted anything about Hackney
Stew,
I wonder if he’ll tweet anything about what I mention in the poorly-edited point below? I ran out of time when I tried to tidy it up a bit, bloody pre-emptive text.
SG Your post is currently timestamped 12:36 am, ie in the future.
@LCS nope, nothing wrong
, I posted at half past midnight
so the timestamp was correct
SG Where I live half past midnight is 00:36 am.
That’s 24 hour clock
On a 12 hour clock midnight is 12:00am
and lunchtime is 12:00pm
Tonight a car bomb went off outside the Courthouse right in the middle of Derry, Londonderry, Doire, whatever the hell you want to call it. I think a fair amount of damage has been done and there is a suspicious second vehicle but thankfully no innocents have been hurt or injured.
I wonder out long it will take the bBBC to blame it on Brexit?
Londonderry, the Liverpool of Northern Ireland, is within spitting distance of the border between NI and Eire’s County Donegal, a border that contrary to media misrepresentation does actually already exist and the Republican Bogside is few hundred yards away from where this bomb went off. As is the constantly attacked Protestant enclave of the Fountain.
Of course this is nothing to do with Brexit, it’s “dissident” Republicans hitting a soft target more loudly and forcefully than usual as their regular punishment beatings, shootings and “viable devices” are simply brushed under the carpet as they don’t suit the narrative, largely ignored by the national msm. As Adams famously said, “” They haven’t gone away you know”.
Let’s wait and see how the bBBC and the rest of them use this one.
Sky Online News:
“”Writing in The Sunday Telegraph, Dr Fox said: “Failure to deliver Brexit would produce a yawning gap between Parliament and the people, a schism in our political system with unknowable consequences.””
“The reaction of the Question Time audience could become a political tsunami. It is time for MPs to deliver on the promises they made. It is a matter of honour and a matter of duty.”

R4 item now Bristol councillor was “yellowvested”
and threats were made on social media “you will be Jo Coxed”
.. that sounds like stuff they probably sent themselves
.. Paddy said “these attacks on politiicians must stop
Guests now *James O’Brien* , Sarah Sands, an Egyptologist
Re : 9:2am 5 R4 Bristol item : ‘Politician’s under pressure suddenly announce they are victims as they find death threats, bit convenient ‘
says blogger : https://politicsthisweek.wordpress.com/2019/01/17/bcfms-weekly-politics-show-presented-by-tony-gosling-131/
I thought the voices we heard were black, but I wanted to check first ..and yes they both were.
The issues is a bear sculpture in a large sunken roundabout called the Bear Pit
The mayor and deputy want the bear to be removed
Mayor “I came out my house one day, and someone had written ‘Marvin must die’ on the pavement, I had to stand over the word ‘die’ so my kids didn’t see it”
… Graffiti is vandalism, but it is not a credible death threat
The next voice was his deputy Asher Craig
“I was yellowvested”
Where’s the substantiation ?
I don’t see how the The BBC local newspage uses the title Bristol’s deputy mayor threatened over Bearpit plan
..and then the article doesn’t actually substatiate or detail these threats
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-46890137
R4 gave us 3 claims of death threats ..and to make an extraordinary claim you need extraordinary evidence .. Checking Facebook and Twitter finds no mention of Asher being “JoCoxxed” or JoCox’d
But i do find the local paper saying The male mayor claiming someone on Facebook saying ‘he deserved to be Jo Cox’d’
https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/news/bristol-news/marvin-must-die-mayor-finds-2434785
Re : Bristol : Wednesday’s Guardian carried the story
“Police investigate racist death threats towards Bristol mayor”
https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jan/16/police-investigate-racist-death-threats-bristol-mayor-marvin-rees
That Guardian article doesn’t allow comments
A Twitter commenter immediately pointed out the Guardian was tricky. Cos the Facebook threat was NOT to do with he Bear Pit, cos buried twads the bottom the Guardian quotes
\\ The Facebook threat to Rees and Craig appeared to be motivated by the Labour administration’s policies on homelessness, Craig said. //
Thursday’s BBC did partially substantiate the graffiti claim, saying a 27 year old was arrested and bailed
BUT did NOT give info about any other threats.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-bristol-46903695
prog item was on 9:35am
Bristol Summary
That R4 BH item looks to me like the normal BBC racism of awarding special attention to SpecialVictim groups , cos the BBC did a 7 minute item based on flakey claims
.. and they wouldn’t have done the same for straight white right wing figures. So that breaks the principle of equality ..and shows SpecialVictim groups have MoreThanEqual rights.
#1 white right wing figures receive death tweets and graffiti very often
No media call for action
#2 These black Bristol politicians make claims 2 of which are very flakey
: the yellow vest left on the wall
: The facebook Jo Cox’d claim
If that was clear then a copy would be in public domain, the fact that it is not visible anywhere suggests that there is a problem with the context.
The third claim the death grafitti is recorded, but is not an a actual credible threat. Indeed I imagine that when Farage gets the same he is told “The less fuss you make, the less they’ll repeat this”
Such intimidation stories are the kind of thing that is best published after a prosecution has been done, and not before, cos the intimidators thrive on it raising a fuss, and if you don’t react they are more likely to give up,
StewGreen,
“…and threats were made on social media ‘you will be Jo Coxed’.. that sounds like stuff they probably sent themselves”
Really? And what would death threats they didn’t “send themselves” sound like?
The Mayor [Marvin Reece] had “Marvin Must Die” painted outside his house. But apparently, according to you, that’s “not a credible death threat”.
Your desperate attempt to dismiss this story as, “BBC racism – SpecialVictim – flakey – warrabout – imagine if – the media shouldn’t report it anyway”; is just painful to read.
Meanwhile, later in this thread you’ve jumped to the defence of a certifiable racist, anti-semitic, white-supremacist who describes Maajid Nawaz as a “filthy hook-nosed P*ki”, and Diane Abbott as a “dumb monkey-in-a-wig”.
But I’m sure that’s purely coincidental…
Phnar, phnar…
Wonder if there is a ‘BBC Vulture?
They have of course run this one before too.
To BBC – If as you say, Britain has become such a racist country after Brexit, why are there no stowaways at Dover trying to get to France?
Please explain.
So, James O’Brien does know the rules of conversation. He hasn’t interrupted, browbeat or humiliated his fellow panelists on Radio 4’s Broadcasting House like he does to listeners who phone in to disagree with him on his LBC radio show.

Somehow an accolade unlikely to be trumpeted by BBC Po-po.
Unless told otherwise I am going to assume that Brexit is top priority and non BBC comments will tolerated.
From a comment on Breitbart London.
“Delaying A50 requires unanimous agreement by ALL EU members. It only takes Italy, Hungary or Poland to scupper that plan.”
Is this correct? Would this prevent the UK Government from cancelling Brexit?
Last
Yes it would take all ReichEU ministates to consent . Brussels woukd bribe dissenters and tell them what “reprisals” would be taken . The Reich is very experienced with reprisals .
GrieveQC and company , together with Lord Berkow of Brussels – are conspiring to breach another president by getting a Commons vote against the wishes of the Government to extend A50 using the Hotel California method .
It’s mad that a back bench QC MP can challenge a democratic vote and get away with it .
F
Thank you.
Salvini and co already want to leave the EU.
What reprisals can the EU threaten?
Without their beloved EU army Italy will not be invaded.
The EU is now wishing it began the army project ten years ago.
The EU might invade Malta.
Bribe? Some € Ponzi money? Since the EU cannot bribe states personal bribes will be offered. I think Salvini would “accept” the EU bribe and then put a video on Youtube showing the whole process.
The Euro would then be worth less than a Venezuelan Chavezivar.
So it will be economic reprisals, which will work slowly, if they work at all. Which will increase Italians determination to ITEXIT.
Attempted reprisals will increase the number of states wondering if this “ever closer union” is such a good idea.
If this analysis is realistic a EU member state could vote against the A50 extension and the EU could do SFA.
Last
Reprisals? Infrastructure projects ‘funded by the EU’ mysteriously stopped whilst the country next door gets plenty .
More rigorous inspections of various domestic industries by EU staff with accompanying punishment for breaches ( fines )
EU legislation aimed at disadvantaging dissenting countries .
I’m sure they’ll find plenty more – they are nasty enough .
I feel that a High Court challenge ought to take place after the PM’s statement tomorrow. The Supreme Court ruling in Miller & others 2017 was not, as far as I recall, for Parliament to keep on voting over Brexit.
It was for one vote.
A final say.
Parliament had its final say on Tuesday, last week.
That was it.
“We need to know what the majority of parliamentarians think!” Major and Grieve have both forgotten ENTIRELY that Brexit was about what the majority of the PEOPLE/VOTERS think. Either that or they’re pretending to have forgotten.
Along with the Kenneth Clarkes and Soubrys of this world, they give parliament a bad name. It stinks of an elitist institution that floats so high above the people, and has so completely lost any connection with them, it must be pretty close to Oumuamua or Ultima Thule.
Bercow will need to get red in the face quite a lot to keep the temperature constant. At least we should be able to catch faint echoes of what he bellows from out there, beyond Pluto, such is his volume. That way we can be assured he’s not down here, with the ordinary mortals. Maybe Jacob, Boris, Nigel, Gerard etc can eventually get on with the job of bringing parliament back down to earth, from the dizzy heights. But not too soon, please.
We can then try to explain to Grieve, Bercow and all the other plotters, the difference between direct democracy and representative democracy, cos clearly they lack even this most basic information about democracy.
fnw
“We can then try to explain to Grieve, Bercow and all the other plotters”
We can then try Grieve, Bercow and all the other plotters.
Fixed it or you.
LCS – they will need to know the very basics, lest they plead ignorance at their trials.
After that, the Tower calleth.
fnw, “Maybe Jacob, Boris, Nigel, Gerard etc can eventually get on with the job of bringing parliament back down to earth, from the dizzy heights.”
Sadly, I think Boris’ mind is on other things right now.
He has a little distraction going on.
“We can then try to explain to Grieve, Bercow and all the other plotters, the difference between direct democracy and representative democracy, cos clearly they lack even this most basic information about democracy.”
Problem is that they are ceasing to be democrats. They do not like democracy or respect democracy anymore. They are Fascists or Marxists (I use the latter word as a catch-all for the very many different varieties of Communist). They are happy to use democracy as a platform or ladder to get onto the stage, but once there, it is ‘To hell with audience, WE will perform as WE choose.’.
Matthew Parris was priceless on TWTW at 1pm on R4. He was busy pointing at others, “Oooh, look the Far Right” in the Conservative Party while strutting up and down in his jackboots, saluting all over Brexit. Ed Stourton conducted the Inertview.
I think it is Matthew Parris who is on the ‘Far Right’ of the Conservative Party, so far right that he’s Left.
Up2
It’s curious that the BBC has a stable of mouthpieces such as Parris – whose views never move . Who never say ‘I got that wrong’. I suppose producers / editors know that these characters ‘know the rules’ as far as defamation is concerned so will be approved by the BBC legal department .
But what it gives the punter – is – ironically – a lack of diversity of view .
Every week we go through seems to be the next ‘important week’ . I can’t imagine what the scenes both in the House of Commons and the country of the countdown to the expiry of A50 is perverted .
The PM has said again and again and again that uk leaves on March 29 . For a government not to achieve that promise because of the efforts of a biased speaker an a brexit hating Tory backbencher and club will not be a pretty sight .
You’re right, Fed, the Beeb love Parris. Not because he’s on the payroll and with Mikey Portillo balances out all the other Labour people the Beeb has on the go, but because he is a great Sneerer at The British Public. The BBC like that, too.
And then Parris is also a schn …. Yiddish deleted 🙂 just in case it offends your rule (which I support) … as well as – probably – a few other choice Yiddish words that I’m far too polite to use. The BBC LOVE to schneer at the public and they are probably the greatest Schn ……… s of all!
Sometimes I think that I will wait until somebody tells me that
I am paranoid about the BBC and my perception that slowly
but surely they are getting rid of all of their white male news
presenters and reporters.
Some ” BIG BROTHER” in the hierarchy at the BBC HATES
white men. Maybe BIG BROTHER was once a man and hated
his body. Maybe BIG BROTHER is a women and an extreme
ultra feminist. The permutations are endless.
However in the MAIL ON SUNDAY today I read a major feature
which encouraged me to believe that I am not paranoid.
The article shows that more than 80% of the presenters and
reporters of the news last Sunday were women! The Mail on
Sunday even have an editorial about it.
BUT this just didn’t happen just last Sunday. It’s practically every
day of the week!
I will say for the last time that I expect that the perverse
BIG BROTHER at the BBC who’s policy this is. Is just waiting
to get rid of Gary Lineker and replace him with a women.
THEN I expect the liberal bigot will get to
work on the “wrong” type of women presenting the programmes!
Actually, there was a bit on ‘Broadcast House’ about this, I think. By chance, there were (very unusually) 3 males in the room and one ‘lady’. She immediately leaped on this as proof that people saying bbc consisted mostly of women, now, were wrong.
Think I’ll make a note of gender distribution for R4 programmes during the day. Confident we’ll come out with a quite different picture. Is there a ‘wimmin’s hour’ today? There being no equivalent ‘men’s hour’, (great stuff, this ‘equality’ business, isn’t it?) that ‘programme’ on its own, should swing it.
Marr programme displays the usual BBC bias where remainer guests outnumber leavers.
Anna Soubry is allowed to dominate proceedings – might as well be given her own show.
And out in the real world more and more remainers are now saying: “Let’s just get the hell out!”
A school in one of the poorest boroughs in London has a record number of pupils going to Oxford and Cambridge…just what is the secret recipe for success?
The BBC is rather coy about one ‘key factor’ which you may think is surprising. Surely they would be excited and eager to pass on the secret so that other schools from less advantaged areas could learn how to get their own pupils on the road to success.
The Guardian, lol, tells us the stark truth….
‘Brampton Manor in east London credits students’ success to their ambition and to excellent staff.
A key factor in the success is that although the school (for ages 11-16) is comprehensive, the sixth form is highly selective. It opened in 2012 and attracts up to 3,000 applications for 300 places each year.
Another contributing factor is the high number of students who apply to Oxbridge. While other school sixth forms lack ambition and might enter a handful of students, 130 applied from Brampton Manor this year and Dobin says he believes every single one of his current year 12 is capable of going to Oxbridge. “This is not a fluke. We will have more next year. The secret is having the students believe in themselves.”’
So ambition of both pupils and staff, quality staff, and er…selection.
What does the BBC tell us?…..
After a lengthy blurb introducing us to the ethnically diverse pupils, and that is the most important factor here that the BBC wants to get across…so many migrants and look at how successful they are…don’t you Leave voters understand what a boon they are to the country!?, we get the first inkling of the real story…how the school did it….
‘Part of their motivation, the students say, is seeing the faces of former Brampton pupils who received Oxbridge offers on the school walls.
At the entrance of the school, on bold laminated plaques, are lists of names of every former student to have attended university.
The photos of its Oxbridge students are also displayed in multiple places across the school.
In 2014, only one student received an offer.
Last year, 25 students received offers from Oxford and Cambridge. ‘
Or not. That’s not exactly revealing the school’s real secret…that’s a result of the school’s programme. Ambition to get to Oxbridge is of course necessary, if you don’t apply you definitely won’t get in, but ambition alone is not the key…you need the groundwork to back up that application and where does that come from?
Let’s read on….
‘”We have a very traditional approach with no gimmicks or shortcuts.”
Mr Dobin says there is “no secret formula” to its success. The school buys every student their own textbooks to encourage independent study, he says.
The school also has a study centre open from 06:00 until 19:30.
Mr Dobin says it is always staffed and many students choose to work there until the school closes.
“This is where we choose to invest the money we receive from the pupil premium,”
“But the key is to keep telling your students that they’re capable, that they’re good enough.
“We need to shake off the idea that Oxford and Cambridge are just for an ‘elite’ couple of students and encourage everyone to apply.”
The sixth form, which is oversubscribed, annually accepts 300 students, who are interviewed before being offered a place.‘
So a traditional approach, hard work, application, ambition and selection…..oh hang on, no direct mention of that ‘key factor’ in their success….no mention of the word ‘selection’, just a coy statement that pupils are interviewed way down at the bottom of the article.
I imagine nearly all of that is an anathema to the trendy, liberal lefties at the BBC who think anything smacking of discipline, self-discipine, pupils being made to learn is oppression and extreme abuse of young people who should be allowed to flower at their own pace, learning and educating themselves by absorbing knowledge through play, interpersonal relationships and harmonising with the Mother Earth allowing them to develop their own ideas, interests and reasons and to test these ideas and theories about the world and their place in it so that they can develop problem-solving skills, imagination and creativity, language and observation skills, and memory and concentration.
The BBC hates selection as do nearly all the ‘Left’…Grammar schools are the Devil’s work….’absurd’ according to Labour’s education secretary. Seems though that it is the route to success along with those other attributes like discipline, hardwork and a strict regime….Brampton Manor, or its sixth form, is in all but name a grammar school.
If you have listened to the BBC over the years you will know they have run their own anti-selection, anti-grammar school narrative….something that Brampton Manor strongly disproves….from the BBC in May 2018….their ‘reality check’….do you get the impression the BBC are eager to malign grammar schools?….
Grammar schools: Is selection good for social mobility?
‘As the government reiterates its pledge to provide £50m to expand existing grammar schools in England, Labour’s shadow education secretary Angela Rayner has criticised the plans as “absurd”. She said that the evidence was “clear they do nothing to improve social mobility”.
Do poor children do better at grammars?
Children from more deprived backgrounds on average do better at grammar schools than in the comprehensive system, but these schools select a disproportionate number of children from wealthy families.
And those poorer children who live in selective areas – but don’t get into grammar school – do worse than those in areas which mainly operate the comprehensive school system.
Research from the University of Durham published in March suggested that grammar schools perform no better than non-selective state schools once their pupils’ higher ability and wealth is taken into account.’
From March 2018…
Grammar school success ‘down to privilege’ – study
‘Grammar schools perform no better than non-selective state schools, once their pupils’ higher ability and wealth is taken into account, a study suggests.
Academics at Durham University found the “apparent success” of these wholly selective schools was down to their brighter and more advantaged pupils.
They say increasing the number of schools that select pupils by ability would be dangerous for equality.’
Not brexit but personal . When I was waiting to go to university ( didn’t go then ) I got a summer job as the relief caretaker at Brampton manor . By the time I’d finished my 12 hour days their toilets were sparkling ….
It was a pretty good school then despite being in the East End – but the borough hadn’t been taken over by the third world then in the late 70s
Newham was officially the first borough in UK to be majority non British born .
Am I correct in concluding that the collectivists hate selection in education but love Darwin’s Theory, yes it’s only a theory, of evolution and natural selection; survival of the fittest.
To be consistent, wouldn’t they have to disavow Darwin and spend their lives stopping animals from competing and fighting?
Only a theory? A sure sign the writer knows nothing about science or evolution.
If your comment is aimed at me, you are correct; I don’t know much about anything. And the older I get, I find I know even less because lots of what I’ve learned over the years turns out to be untrue.
Regarding the theory of evolution, there’s lots on the subject on both sides of the argument on YouTube and on the internet in general but very little actual proof. I’m sceptical that Mr Darwin’s theory holds up to scrutiny but once I see real proof, I’ll accept it as being a valid theory.
However, watching and reading about it, I’m not there yet. This video is typical of why I don’t accept the theory of evolution, in this instance based on probabilities. The video is just under half an hour long.
Hell I was with lemark once – and then catastophe theory – because of Brexit ….
The left blame Darwin for the Nazis and concentration camps….here’s the blurb for the BBC’s programme about Darwin’s ‘dangerous idea’….
‘Andrew Marr discovers something surprising about his own evolutionary history as this epic series continues with an exploration of Darwin’s impact on politics and society.
Under the banner of Survival of the Fittest, Darwin’s theory of natural selection has been used to justify imperial expansion and the oppression of indigenous peoples; to inform the science of eugenics – the selective breeding of humans which was implemented in the United States in the early 20th century; and to provide a veneer of scientific respectability to Nazi plans to create an Aryan master race. It was also used quite explicitly to explain the twisted logic of the final solution.’
Amazing that ‘Nazi’ racial theories had never surfaced before Darwin…so he must be to blame…..or was he?
Look at this BBC write-up of the Nazis…replace Nazism with Islam…Islam also glorifies war and expansion in order to bring their own kind of morality and progress to the world [fight the unbeliever until Islam rules supreme…Muhammed], it also has a strict separation of peoples based on religion…non-Muslims being ignorant, dirty and immoral animals and thus ripe for subjugation or conversion….sound familiar?
‘Jews were held responsible for Communism and capitalism, liberalism, socialism, moral decline, revolutions, wars, plagues and economic crises. As the Jews had once been demonised in medieval Europe, so the new antisemites (including many Christians) found new, secular ways of demonising them.
The Nazis brought their own strain of radical ruthlessness to these ideas. They glorified war and saw the uncompromising struggle for survival between nations and races as the engine of human progress. They rejected morality as a Jewish idea, which had corrupted and weakened the German people. They maintained that a great nation such as Germany had the right and duty to build an empire based on the subjugation of ‘inferior races’. They looked eastwards to Poland and Russia (where, as it happened, the great majority of European Jews lived) for the territorial expansion of their ‘living space’ (Lebensraum).
Nazism was thus an unscrupulous and warlike ideology, which always had the potential for genocide. But it took some time for an organised killing programme to evolve.’
Kind of think Darwin is innocent…is the man who invented the train also responsible for the transportation of Jews to concentration camps as well as climate change?
Darwin said: “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.”
But I wouldn’t expect the arts and humanities left wing environmentalists at the BBC to know that.
Nor to know that Corbyn, leader of the Labour party, was involved in wreath laying for a guy who tortured people to death because they were Jewish.
“Darwin said: “It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.”
Then one wonders how on earth the sloth survived bearing in mind it takes your on average your local sloth 3 hrs to climb a Brazilian tree to the canopy. Why didn’t this slowest of all animals not see extinction? In other words: there just wasn’t enough time to adapt?
The left are willing to sacrifice everyone on the alter of equality of outcome, except them and theirs of course. The stench of hypocrisy always hangs around leftists but when education is involved it’s best to wear a gas mask if you are downwind of them.
BBC Radio 2 Love Songs ..
No Mohammed has texted in to say he loves his 20 wives and treats them all with the same time and devotion.
No Aiesha has phoned in to say she is happy sharing a husband with 19 other wives and their 50 children.
I’ve just had a strange thought.
Is it possible that the bbbc is actually pro Brexit and the way they are behaving is a fiendishly cunning plan to use the British sense of fair play to turn people off wanting to stay in the eu.
That would explain why it’s usually 4 to 1 remainers to leaver on question time.
It would explain why they constantly interrupt and talk over any leaver.
It would explain why they have never made any positive program about Brexit.
It would explain why every interviewer is pro remain.
It would explain why they promote project fear.
It would explain why they never mention any of the negative effects our leaving would have on the eu.
It would explain how they are trying to trash a ‘no deal’ (or the Brexit we actually voted for) outcome.
It would explain why they support the traitors like grief, soubry, Morgan and the rest of that lot in the parliamentary U bend.
It would explain why the call the likes of JRM and Dorries rebels when in fact they are trying to implement the manifesto they were voted in on.
Maybe that’s why the bbbc are being so obnoxious and blatantly pro remain- they are using reverse psychology to get us to support Brexit…..and it’s working.
Now, I wonder if they really support Trump…..
