Trying to listen to Peter Bone being ’interviewed ‘ by 2 wimmin, Burley and Rigby, but somebody with mental issues is shouting when Bone is replying (or replyin’ as Rigby would say)
They producers seem to always have lots of eu flags waving in the background of their pictures and make sure any Brexiteer is drowned out or made difficult to hear by having a microphone on the pro eu mob bellowing outside.
If it is actually just picking up random yobs yelling during the broadcast you would think any competent broadcaster would have their microphones on those taking part in the interview.
I can’t recall hearing the raucous shouting when anyone pro eu is being interviewed, strange that!
Saw that. Agree with you. I couldn’t actually work out what the numbskull was actually saying so it was all a bit pointless really.

The Surrey stabbing
The press say
\\ the suspect shouted “kill a Muslim” and “white supremacy” //
That second phrase seems an extremely unlikely thing for an attacker to say ..bet there is no recording.
Very similar to the Jo Cox “Britain first”. If I recall that phrase was never mentioned in the court case by any witness but it is now recorded in liberal history books as the exact words spoken.
Terrorist! OMG. From what I can make out from various news stories: some vehicles had been damaged by a group of ROP. The 50-year old chap approached them. They ROPers became aggressive (what a surprise) and the white chap stabbed one of them in the hand (possibly fearing for his own wellbeing). Of course, he shouldn’t have taken those weapons with him, but in today’s society when the police won’t even breath in the wrong direction of a ROPer, some sympathy can be given to this chap.
I remember that Peter Simple had demonstrators shouting, “Wilson! You will be thrown on the dustheap of history on a tit-for-tat basis”. Just the sort of phrasing that springs unbidden to the lips.

Immigration ? The start of a trail of broken Tory promises ……………………
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/prime-minister-pledges-to-control-and-reduce-immigration
In ten years we shall all be drinking sewage. That’s the good news. The bad news is that there will not be enough of it.
In my opinion all religion is tyranny. If any members of any religion want to be tyrannised by their own beliefs then so be it, but they are not at liberty to tyrannise the rest of us. We have to have the freedom to question, and criticise, anything which clashes with our own beliefs, culture and traditions. This is not anti-religion or, to be more specific, Islamaphobic, it is simply common sense. We are a western, secular society in which many different religions are free to practise what they want, but they have to understand that they do so under our rules and not their own. If members of any religion are uncomfortable with this then they should find somewhere else to live which is more compatible with their views.
So true, we did not ask to be made to feel like strangers in our own country.
We did not ask to have our opinions to be made imprisonable.
Absolutely to the point
Well said.

Dear virtue signalling sucker,
We don’t have to imagine the consequences of the rise of the far-right. The man who murdered 50 people in a Mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand was open about his politics: he was driven by far-right ideas, and praised Donald Trump as an inspiration. [1]
The attack on Muslim worshippers in Christchurch was horrific. But it wasn’t an isolated incident. It was part of a climate of rising Islamophobia and far-right politics. And we are not immune from it here in the UK. [2]
Will you please chip in to support organisations doing crucial work here in the UK to stamp out Islamophobia and the far-right?

True and none turn a hair when Westerners in foreign parts are required to put up and shut up or get clobbered.
If I went to Saudi, Pakistan, India I would have to defer to them.
They all bang on about equal treatment so OK so let’s have some otherwise it breeds resentment – quite simple really.
And similar goes for gays and all the rest we are now required to embrace while forgoing any beleifs or opinions we may have. So hence we find ourselves labelled, Islamophobes, xenophobes and homophobes etc and not fit to live.
gax-I have gay conservative friends whom have never required of me, or any other person, to forgo their beliefs or opinions. They go quietly about their lives without the need for identity politics, or to seek preferential treatment. I agree that by comparison there are unfair discrepancies, mainly orchestrated by an agenda driven MSM and vocal minority, but certainly not by all gays.
‘Fund to boost female and black physicists.’
Isn’t knife crime a more pressing issue!
They have a case study of a girl who says female friends dropped out of physics because the atmosphere was too ‘laddish.’ Surely a ‘laddish’ attitude in a few lessons would not dash your dream? It would only be about four hours a week leaving hundreds of spare hours to study outside the classroom. I can’t imagine Einstein deciding against working out his theory of relativity because he did not like the atmosphere at the patent office where he worked.
Physics students are so notoriously laddish! I remember the physics lads at university: always downing shots off naked women begging to hear shout their latest theorem. It took you weeks to get over a night out with those loose-living lunatics!
There were three in my boys’ classes who ended up at Oxbridge on account of being freaking geniuses.
Lovely chaps all, but shy to a fault and I doubt likely to be scoring well with the Big Bang Pennys from Social Studies and Drama.
So, nope.
Laddish physics students? The sit-com ‘The Big Bang Theory’ is based entirely on the opposite being true.
They cannot even be bothered to lie convincingly these days.
We should perhaps be boosting white knife criminals.
BBC Online News:
“”LGBT lessons row: More Birmingham schools stop classes””
“”Campaigner Amir Ahmed said some Muslims felt “victimised” but an LGBT group leader said No Outsiders helped pupils understand it is OK to be different.””
“”In a letter seen by the BBC, Leigh Trust said it was halting the lessons until after Ramadan in May.””
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-47613578
Muslims feel victimised because they are objecting to a teaching module.
Islam does not tolerate gays. Muslims object to a gay module and therefore Muslims feel victimised.
The BBC should be suggesting that gays are being victimised by Muslim actions.
But no. The BBC has an ideology clash here. The BBC support fervently both gays and Muslims. What are they to do??
a couple of guys walking up Bury Park road in Luton holding hands and watch the riot…
Birmingham council has announced that the teaching of homosexuality to young Muslim kids (some as young as 4) is to be halted. Personally I happen to agree with the Muslims that it is far too young and is part of the Frankfurt schools 11 point plan to destroy a society.
So will this now be extended to other schools where Muslim kids aren’t in the majority or in attendance? Probably not but if that is the case it amounts to discrimination on the grounds of race. This is an area which is well defined and any parents who object would have a great case against the leftist hate filled Birmingham Labour council.
Said earlier – the left lib agenda comes crashing off the rails in the face of Islam – tricky.

So today’s events
#1 “A court hearing for self styled yellow vest protester James Goddard had to be suspended after descending into chaos at Westminster Magistrates’ Court.”
#2 Yellow vest demonstrators stormed the Attorney General’s office in the latest stunt in a day of chaos in Westminster following protester James Goddard’s court appearance for allegedly abusing Anna Soubry MP.
Addressing judge Kenneth Grant from the dock, Mr Goddard said: “It’s not illegal to heckle an MP. All of this is wrong.”
Mr Grant rose and temporarily adjourned the case 15 minutes into the hearing after several members of the public gallery began shouting about Brexit, made derogatory comments about Anna Soubry, and chanted “Shame on you”.
\\ Supporters chanted “Soubry is a Nazi,” commented on the perceived severity of his bail conditions by telling the judge that Goddard “is not a terrorist, you know”, and said a police officer briefly present in court would be “better off fighting knife crime”. //

Protest! Don’t let the far right hijack ‘yellow vests’ movement

This is the slogan of the far left Government supporters in the UAF, denouncing the UK anti Soubry Yellow Vests as fascists.

Ah @GWF I get you
The London Yellow vests, stand for Brexit and #Justice4OurBoys
#1 The 2 lib-establishment front groups did an Anti march labelling the Yellow Vests “Fascist”
#2 James Goddard’s team retaliates by using the same slogan against Soubry … and the lib-establishment is triggered and treats Goddard as if he is some kind of terrorist.
Looking at Al Beeb’s ‘Politics’ website this evening and they are going out and out overdrive with their Anti-Brexit Propaganda.
O.T.T. Al Beeb , O.T.T.
😀
So the Dutch authorities, with al beeb in tow, are grudgingly admitting that the Utrecht killing spree probably was terrorism after all, especially in the light of a letter found in the gunman’s getaway car. Duh!
Personally, although I’m not a highly trained and highly paid investigative journalist of the calibre employed by the world’s most trusted, I could have told them that if a Turkish muslim with associations to ISIS and who fought in Chechnya, shoots down random people days after a terror attack on a mosque, and hours after the Turkish President whips up hatred against western infidels, there was a good chance of it being terror-related.
It turns out the story of the ‘family row’ was fake news. I wonder who planted that story?
So we have the usual pattern after every Islamic terror attack by the authorities and al beeb: disinform, deny, disappear.
– Disinform with a welter of ‘fausses pistes’, red herrings, fake news, and downright lies (mental illness; Norwegian / French / German perpetrator called David; family feud; crime passionnel, etc).
– Deny it had anything to do with the religion of peace.
– Disappear from the front page asap.
By the time some true facts emerge, the public will (it is hoped) be confused, forgetful, and the news circus will have moved on.
Reminds me a bit of when the Russians shot down the Malaysian airliner over Ukraine. They got some spokesman to give an incredibly complicated press conference with military diagrams, charts, computer simulations, radar data and printouts, a blizzard of theories, fake facts and misinformation, with just one aim: to confuse viewers as much as possible, sow the seeds of doubt, and create plausible (or even implausible) deniability.
In the military they call it chaff, designed to confuse enemy radar.
And there we have it: the bbc as the ministry of disinformation.
Job done.

Annu, um there was umpteen minorities at Grenfell !
Grenfell was a real eye-opener. Likely that all the other similar towers have similar configurations. This raises the question: has there been any immigration control at all? There seem to be no criteria for entry?
A certain Andrew Nether (spelling?) was a Labour insider who said that Blair had secretly let in 2-3 million ‘foreigners’ to ‘give the Tories one in the eye’. Maybe Grenfell is part of that tale.
Ms Merkel is therefore not the only one -it seems- who broke the law with gay abandon, abolishing borders, etc
I’m beginning to wonder whether criminal behaviour (i.e. breaking the law) isn’t a prerequisite for political leadership?
We look around us …
two particular sets victims of grenfell caught my eye
a young italian couple fresh from the EU yet in a council flat
a somailian ?? (ithink it was) single mother with two kid who couldnt speak english in a council flat
so sitting at home with my 18 year old I wonder what his chance would be of getting a council home (I dont need to wonder , he has f00k all chance)
the whole bleeding heart response is there to obscure the fact that 90%+ of people in there were non native and either shouldn’t of been here , have jumped the queue or were involved in some form of criminality, ie we are paying their benefits to sub-let a council house
the place had been subject to a £50k per flat free upgrade , up north thats half a fecking house.
an upgrade to voluntarily meet some EU regulations on energy loss or something.

If this was said by any other follower of any other religion the old bill would be at your front door and the bbc would milk it. Baking cakes, hotel rooms anyone?
Why is this ideology above criticism?
tap,
“Why is this ideology above criticism?”
Simple. The BBC are scared to death of an Islamic suicide bomber walking into their beloved-admired-by-all-BBC HQ.
Its that simple – fear.
Not just the BBC – the Government. It is why they are getting away with so much.
Newsnight , the pulse of the nation…not
Odd that the BBC doesn’t mention, in my hearing, anything to do with Brexit in its radio news bulletins that announce record employment figures [since 1971]…if it was bad news you could guarantee they would somehow squeeze in a comment about Brexit creating uncertainty and a lack of investment.
Ah but they have worked out an angle on the website….rather than invest in machinery bosses are employing people who are easy to sack ‘when the disaster of Brexit happens’….but hang on….they’ve been doing that for years, employing cheap foreign labour, keeping wages low and refusing to invest in research and development and high tech solutions. That was the reason for the ‘productivity puzzle’ the BBC could never find the answer to….oddly, when it suits, they suddenly ‘discover’ this narrative and mould it to their own purposes….even if it is rubbish in this case….wages are going up and the BBC paradoxically tells us we are running out of workers as all the EU ones are going home….obvously not.
Currently on R4: ‘The Crossing’. Find out about Dublin 3, Lord Dubbs and the stream into Britain.
No, not water. That we’re going to be short of.
Yes….climate change and increasing population….the joys of mass immigration….water shortages [and houses, school places, NHS beds, road space, quality of life etc etc etc]. Just another reason to stop it.
The BBC pumped out a doom and gloom story about the NHS and cancer treatment today….
‘Cancer doctor shortage ‘puts care at risk’
A shortage of cancer doctors will hamper the ability of the NHS to provide cutting-edge care, experts are warning.
A Royal College of Radiologists census of 62 major UK cancer centres found more than 7.5% of consultant posts were vacant, with services maintained only by large amounts of overtime.’
Funny the BBC doesn’t mention this on the frontpage of the Times today…
‘Britain’s breast cancer deaths falling faster than rest of Europe’
Breast cancer deaths are falling faster in Britain than in the rest of Europe as diagnosis and treatment improves, figures show.
Death rates this year will be below the EU average after an 18 per cent drop in little more than half a decade, according to comparisons that suggest the NHS’s focus on better organisation, screening and care has paid dividends.
Why does the BBC always try and paint the bleakest, most negative picture of the NHS? JUst helping Corbyn out, or in…to No10, I suppose. This has always been a favourite BBC target as they love to shout about Britain being the worst provider of cancer treatment in Europe….and yet when there’s a good news story?
Not on BBC:
“”‘We’re ready for a US-UK deal’: Trump adviser John Bolton says America wants to partner with Brexit Britain””
“”In a UK exclusive, the former US ambassador to the UN said: “We are ready to go, we are ready to go.” “”

You noticed!
Not on BBC:
“”No Brexit extension without a good reason, says EU’s chief negotiator””
Barnier said that “everyone should now finalise all preparations for a no-deal scenario”.
“”Barnier cautioned that delaying Brexit would mean more uncertainty and costs, and added it would not be approved “without a good reason”.””
https://news.sky.com/story/you-need-a-sense-of-humour-eu-left-really-exhausted-by-brexit-crisis-11670140
Don’t believe a word of it. Where is the ‘this is the deal, there will be no more negotiating of it, no changes’? If that had been true Barnier would now announce ‘no-deal’….clearly he is prepared to rip up the deal already agreed but only when it means Brexit is softened even more in the EU’s favour. Why is he asking for ‘good reasons’ to extend Brexit timetable? That can only mean he is prepared to re-open the deal and negotiate again knowing full well his collaborators in the UK Parliament have struck down British defences having blocked no-deal and refused to back even May’s already very soft Brexit deal leaving us little but total, abject and humiliating surrender to the EU.
Bugger Bercow I’d suggest.
Mays ‘deal’ is so bad the EU can afford to give ground
I think we just leave on paper, enter a transition period of 20 months – open to extend for another 24.
Yes, should have announced ‘no-deal’ after the vote and everybody would have had absolute certainty about what was in the pipe-line and used the two year transition to negotiate the trade deal with the EU…they then having no leverage at all to hold over us as we wouldn’t have gone cap-in-hand begging for favours for the withdrawal agreement as May did.
Could still do that…and have a transition period for no-deal…would make sense. No need for a cliff edge at all if everyone is sensible. Two years to get used to what a no-deal would mean and to do free-trade deal with EU which would probably negate the impact of no-deal almost completely.
IF ONLY somebody would veto the delay, we might get WTO.
Prime Minister David Cameron said:
This analysis shows the stark choice facing the British people.
Even in its more cautious estimate, the Treasury finds that a vote to leave the EU would cause an economic shock that would tip Britain into recession and cost at least half a million jobs. The pound would fall, prices in the shops would rise, and the housing market would be damaged.
On 23 June, people face a stark choice: economic security and a vote to Remain, or a leap in the dark which would cost jobs and raise prices.
Just for the record….I think we have to keep reminding ourselves and the BBC about just what we knew, what we were told, about leaving the EU and what that might entail….thanks to expert analysis by Osborne’s Treasury. Those who promote a second referendum always say we didn’t know what we were voting for, we didn’t know the risks…but we do now…and thus armed we can vote, the correct way, in a second chance referendum. Gosh, thanks.
‘To inform the decision that the British people will make on whether the United Kingdom (UK) should remain a member of the European Union (EU), this document provides a comprehensive, rigorous and objective analysis of the immediate impact of a vote to leave. ‘
Remember…these scenarios are started not from the time we actually leave the EU but from the vote to leave….
Britain to enter recession with 500,000 UK jobs lost if it left EU, new Treasury analysis shows
‘New Treasury analysis shows a vote to leave the EU would tip Britain’s economy into a year-long recession.
Published 23 May 2016
From:
HM Treasury, Prime Minister’s Office, 10 Downing Street, The Rt Hon George Osborne, and The Rt Hon David Cameron
Britain’s economy would be tipped into a year-long recession, with at least 500,000 jobs lost and GDP around 3.6% lower, following a vote to leave the EU, new Treasury analysis launched today by the Prime Minister and Chancellor shows.
The analysis follows the Treasury’s recent assessment of the long-term impact on Britain’s economy of leaving the EU. That document concluded that the UK would be permanently poorer if it left the EU with a central estimate that GDP would be £4,300 lower in 2015 terms for each household after 15 years and every year thereafter….a vote to leave the EU would have a damaging effect on both the demand and supply side of the economy. The Treasury has modelled two scenarios: a ‘shock’ to the economy and a ‘severe shock’.
The impact of a vote to leave the EU: shock scenario
In the ‘shock’ scenario, which uses cautious assumptions and links the size of the transition effect to the central estimate of the UK adopting a negotiated bilateral agreement with the EU, GDP would be around 3.6% lower after two years compared to the forecast for continued growth after a vote to remain. Average real wages would be nearly 3% lower, which is a pay cut of almost £800 a year for someone working full time on the average wage.
500,000 UK jobs would be lost and the value of the pound would fall by around 12%. Inflation would also increase by over 2 percentage points and the value of people’s homes would be hit by 10% compared to Britain remaining in the EU, with a rise in uncertainty from current levels similar to that experienced in the UK during the early 1990s recession.
In this scenario net government borrowing would increase by around £24 billion, compared with a vote to remain.
The impact of a vote to leave the EU: severe shock scenario
In the ‘severe shock’ scenario – which represents a credible risk – the size of the transition effect is linked to the estimate of Britain leaving the Single Market and defaulting to WTO membership.
After two years GDP would be 6% lower and 800,000 UK jobs would be lost, compared to a vote to remain. The value of the pound would fall by 15% and there would be a further increase in inflation of 2.7 percentage points, with a hit to the value of people’s homes of 18%.
In this scenario net government borrowing would increase by around £39 billion, compared with a vote to remain.
The Treasury’s analysis published today shows that even in the ‘shock’ scenario, a vote to leave the EU would result in a marked deterioration in Britain’s economic prosperity and security. A recession would be expected to follow with a significant risk that the outcome could be far worse.
In contrast, a vote to remain in the EU would see current uncertainty fall back rapidly with little lasting impact on the economy.’
Interesting: on R4 at 6.00pm Evan Davis makes a big, enthusiastic push for a cross-party ‘soft Brexit’, with the UK staying in the customs union. Seems Labour MPs would go for it, possibly making up the numbers for the Tory MPs who won’t. N Zahawi gets blasted for disagreeing with him.
Was wondering what prompted Evan’s big push, cos he didn’t say…
See now ‘Die Welt’ reports that Barnier said today that there was still a way out of the crisis for Britain, if it went for a cross-party ‘soft Brexit’, staying in the customs union.
Now, I do wonder what Ms May is going to come up with. Surely not a cross-party soft Brexit, with the UK staying in the customs union?
Perhaps the May/Bercow Theatre Company could stage a little act for us, where this all takes place, flowing by seamlessly in front of our very eyes?
Zahawi is generally right about things, but oh dear, my eyes glaze over when he begins on one of his explanations.
The bubble avoids criticising any of these frauds – treasury – Bank of England – ifs, imf on their false projections for the UK economy after the brexit vote .
The same with alleged security reductions as databases won’t be shared after brexit – Evette cooper balls loves this one .
So we are secure now ? I would suggest not . At least we we get border control back there might be apolitical will one day to properly regulate who comes in and who leaves the country ….
Yes, border control, my Chinese wife married five years now has had her latest immigration stage (every 2 and a half years we have to re apply) , knocked back by a muslim in a hijab at the immigration office because we did not supply 6 months of letters to our address in her name and another set in my name, well we did but she decided they were not spavced out evenly enough over the six months,
The immigration office and border control are largely staffed by invaders. Inmates manning the gates and determining who gets in — guess.
vlad,
I have noticed that whenever corrupt border control/immigration officers are found to be turning a blind eye to north Africans they are usually Nigerians-can-you-tell-me-your-account number-pleese.
I thought I would spell please in the same way many (go on then, tens of thousands) Nigerians usually spell that word whenever they send scams to elderly/frail British citizens.
Vlad, you are dead right. Why is that so rarely mentioned? The Civil Service and the police are heavily infiltrated.
My long term concern is that after we Leave the EU, May and the BBC will do their best to get us to rejoin the EU under various pretences and pretexts.
If the elite MPs decide that we should rejoin, we ‘little-people’ will have no choice. There won’t be a Referendum. No way will the elite risk that again 🙁
For the common good, you see.
Do you mean we shall crash in?
