      No, I don’t understand that website. It appears to support the state broadcaster, yet lists all the postive things that would result from a modicum of adult supervision:

      Radio 1 & Radio 2 to be sold off
      Fewer natural history programmes and no more Planet Earth series
      No consultation with audience, just announcements of cuts
      Reduced episodes of soaps, dramas & factual programmes
      BBC Three sold off
      Programme & service losses forecast
      Many more staff cuts threatened
      £800m savings must be made over next few years
      BBC website to be decimated
      More cutbacks in local radio
      Much less sports coverage
      BBC Four closed or just online
      Licence fee abolished and remnants of BBC to be funded by advertising and/or subscription
      More repeats
      Less specialist programmes
      Reduced frequency and volume of popular entertainment programmes

    What can one say about the Channel4 news? Ken Clarke, rambling on endlessly about the ‘hard right’ and the ‘far right’ and putting the knife into his party. Sounding more Labour than J Corbyn. Jon Snow lapped it up.
    Matt Frei trying to discredit Nigel Farage, by attacking A Banks’ alleged financing of the Brexit party. On and on it went.
    Small mercy: so far no Guru Murphy, falling off his chair in his eagerness to nail anything that could be ‘far right’.
    This is supposedly a news bulletin. Sounds much more like a party-political broadcast. Much more…

    Another parliament that couldn’t care less about what the people think, its own rule book, or even honesty or democracy, is the German one.
    Gerold Otten, of the AfD, failed -for a second time- today to be appointed to the position of ‘Vice-President’ of the Parliament, as required by the Federal Parliament’s own rule book for an opposition party.
    Lotsa virtue-signalling MPs, ignoring the rules, inspired by their law-breaking Chancellor, encouraged by the virtue-signalling MSM and public broadcasters, blocked him out. A little conspiracy a certain man with a moustache would have appreciated in its open, sneering subversiveness.
    As always, the law means nothing. The rules mean nothing. They (MPs) think they’re giving their past a thumbs-down. What they don’t realize is that they’re delighting in exactly the opposite.

    Btw: One day I’m going to bore the readers of this site with a list of laws and international treaties broken or simply ignored by said Chancellor. It’s a very long one, so I’m not going to cause anyone to nod off just yet. Personally, I find it interesting to see how you can be internationally celebrated and yet be guilty of many criminal offences. Says a lot about our little world…

      DW suggests that the German parliament votes for deputies and ‘traditionally’ each party has one deputy.

      Of course I may have mis read Deutsche Welle or they might have mistranslated ‘traditionally’.

      Either way it seems, even in Germany, everyone is a democrat until democracy delivers the wrong result.

      So if the police set out to catch people who hide their face in public
      ..who are they gong to arrest ?
      – Burqa wearers ?
      – Antifa
      – Hoodums in hoodies
      So is it a surprise that on the day when the police were testing their system in coorperation with the BBC, they arrested 3 men
      The one the BBC chose to air is a middle aged working class white man
      ..and they fined him £90
      ..ostensibly for “disorder” when they grabbed him to detain him.
      If he contested that on the spot fine..surely he’d win ?
      Wouldn’t it be normal to be disorderly when you are suddenly surrounded by cops grabbing you.

    R4 News Briefing at 05.38. British Steel ‘ blames BREXIT’

    Well they would, wouldn’t they.

    Personally, I’m surprised to hear the country still has a ‘British’ steel, given its been sold out at least twice in the last few years but I guess in Al Beebs warped world just occasionally it’s fine to use words like British, English when they need to emphasise something they perceive as a negativity.

    Farming today now, time for the off button as I’m told Irish farmers will receive 100million Euros to cover BREXIT disturbance and they are playing a EU election game asking CUK, SNP and Plaid Cymru about which EU farming regs they want to see changed. No balance with UKIP or Brexit given a chance to add to the debate. But they would, would’nt they.

    Someone really should tell the Farming today producers and especially the SNP spokesperson that we as a United Kingdom voted to leave, therefore No single market, no freedom of movement. The Scots porridge harvest will have to be hand picked by the direct relatives of Rob Roy in the future and not Pablo, Steffan or Yasser.

      I believe the predictions of the death of the Conservative party are premature.

      I also believe that many of these predictions are engendered by the same people who created The Conservative Party problems.

      Far left infiltrators, who cannot get honest support, so they lie and cheat.

      With all its current problems The Conservative Party is infinitely superior to Corbyn.

        “With all its current problems The Conservative Party is infinitely superior to Corbyn.”

        Agree with that, but its best people appear to be on the back benches. The talent simply isn’t rising.

        No matter how badly they have performed in the past, Labour has always managed to do worse. Now Labour has Corbyn, MacDonnell, Abbott etc. Borderline insane. I doubt if they would survive more than one term but I worry about the damage that would be inflicted.

        I don’t understand why Tory MPs aren’t physically dragging T May out of Downing Street. She has that dangerous combination of low ability, low cunning, and mule like stubbornness. She wrecks everything she touches – Brexit, law and order, immigration, the party itself and, I fear, the country.

        I’m voting Brexit Party to give them a scare at the very least, and in the hope that something more will come out of it. Letting Corbyn in is just a risk I believe we have to take, frightening though it is. This can’t go on.

        It is tragic to see the way the Daily Fail has changed under its remainer editor Geordie Greig. Now it seems it is in alliance with the left wing weirdos of Channel 4 News trying to smear Nigel Farage.

        I saw Matt Frei’s pathetic attempt at a hit piece. The pompous buffoon did his best to big it up, but it was a nothing burger.

        Is there anyone who does not know that Arron Banks gives Nigel Farage financial support? Frei seemed to think this was big news, but he came across to this viewer as an absolute wanker. I can only say that Nigel Farage has the patience of a saint to put up with this moron’s obsessive pursuit of him, with his laughable attempt to corner him with fake “gotcha” style questions.

    BBC Framing Today Watch #1 ‘BBC – Framing the questions with Memory Loss’
    (that’s really Farming Today but read on …)

    Interview with Irish Beef Farmers Association spokesperson. They are to receive 1bn Euros as a Market Disruption Grant. The BBC wished to Blame It On Brexit, so they did and framed the questioning accordingly.

    They conveniently overlooked the October 2018 Report from the UN’s IPCC which said – among other things – that the world had to stop eating beef and adopt a vegan diet. This was taken up enthusiastically by the BBC who did not stop talking about it and promoting it for six months.

    The Irish beef farmers export most of their production and most of this comes to the UK, only just, – 52% (now where have I heard that figure before?) – out of their total export production of about 98%. That rather suggests their home market has become enthusiastically vegan or relies more on lamb and pork and fish because Irish beef is too expensive.

    Wouldn’t be anything to do with transport taxation and the rising price of oil, would it BBC? Apparently, feed prices have rocketed. That’s arable … sort of vegan but sown with diesel, fertilised with oil products, harvested with diesel and transported with diesel.

    Oh dear!

    BBC Framing Today Watch #2 ‘BBC – Framing the questions with Bias’
    (that’s really Farming Today but read on …)

    Interview with Irish Beef Farmers Association spokesperson. They are to receive 1bn Euros as a Market Disruption Grant. The BBC wished to Blame It On Brexit, so they did and framed the questioning accordingly.

    The Beeboid, Anna Hill (hope I got the name right), did not bother to ask whether British Beef Farmers should receive a similar grant from the EU and “If not, why not?”

    The BBC have got to be, I am thinking, the most unpatriotic, unenthusiastic promoter of their nation of any national broadcaster in the world. Also becoming the most incompetent. Why can they not join up the dots to all the other things that might influence beef production, car production, mental health problems in the young, etc., etc.?

    The most they do is frame things their BBC way according to their BBC agenda: it is now blatant and very, very, obvious.

    BBC, you have been ‘rumbled’.

    “Nigel Farage is filling a truth-shaped hole. Honesty is the only way to drive him out
    Suzanne Moore”

    [Moore is the only “journalist” at the home of “facts are sacred” whose column has an older photograph than Polly. Like Polly, Moore has no notable educational achievements.]

    [Moore begins with]

    “The leader of the Brexit party doesn’t want Brexit. He just wants the outrage and discontent he thrives on to continue”

    [The only evidence adduced for this statement, that Nigel, who has spent twenty years, mostly in the wilderness, being abused physically and verbally by the Moore variants, does not want Brexit, is that Moore said so, it is in the Guardian and therefore has veracity. Conclusion, Moorebollocks.]

    “Before I say anything at all, let me say that Nigel Farage is a very bad man who tells lies and that there are big questions about where his funding comes from. I have no qualms in joining the daily stream of hate justifiably directed towards him.
    But we have to accept it has not made him vanish into thin air.”

    [“Is a very bad man who tells lies” We are instantly converted by this assertion, from a source who joined Polly in denouncing the Rotherham revelations.]

    [“questions about where his funding comes from” Fortunately there no such doubt about Guardian funding, BBC and EU, the two most deadly enemies of British people.]

    [“I have no qualms in joining the daily stream of hate” Thank you, SM for this admission that your views are based on hate. Prediction, the article will be changed and this error will go the way of the Commissar.]

    “There is little need for you to tell me the thing they voted for was impossible or undeliverable”

    [Brexit is only undeliverable in the mendacious world inhabited by this half-witted, half-educated, self-confessed hater. Moorebollocks.]

    “which [Parliament] does not know how to represent these bad 17 million people”

    [Here we have it, from the home of facts are sacred, everyone who voted for Brexit is bad. If you read this Moorebollocks of an article, bad is the only comparative term this author in her minute vocabulary.]

    [I promised myself that I would take this nonsense apart, line by line, to the bitter end. There is a limit to how much I nonsense and nastiness from the Guardian I can take. There is more, Moorebollocks, but you will have to read it yourself.]

      It’s a Mortons Fork question being asked in which there is no correct answer. Farage would have been better to say that post Brexit it is up to which ever government is in charge to decide on the distribution of funds, or that people should not have to rely on subsidy to survive.

      He is now between a roack and a hard place because this question is going to be asked again & again.
      We give £360 million a week to the EU and that could be used by the government to smooth the loss of EU subsidy. He should also have said the UK gives far more money to the EU than we get back so there should be ample money for the regions, depending on how the government chooses to distribute it.

        £250 million after the rebate, surely? Don’t fall into that trap.

        Then we get some of the £250 million back, but not under our control.

      ,,Just cos they say Farage lost ..that doesn’t mean it’s true
      He did indeed immediately point out that all EU money is our money

      ..Thw BBC GOTCHA reporter then said ‘but Wales is a £250m net beneficiary’
      (he didn’t say over what time period)

      Farage then said it didn’t benefit the Steel Industry much
      .. and the BBC guy dismissed that ..by saying “that’s 40 miles away”

      Also note the clip is called “uedited” but ends abruptly at 1m35s

    “UK knife crime: The first 100 fatal stabbings of 2019”
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-48186035
    C/with montage of the 100 faces of the deceased.
    Let’s put some ‘reality’ meat on the bones provided by our far left Marxist State Broadcaster as ever anxious to hide/not convey important factors:
    100 deaths to 14th May 2019. That’s 134 days into the year i.e. 36.7% of 2019. Therefore, it can safely be assumed that a total of 489 ‘people’ will be stabbed to death in 2019, mainly in Londonistan. This assumes that the police will not reduce the number of deaths by application of many ludicrous policies that defy common sense. Argument: there would not likely be 100 deaths if stupid police tactics had worked like statistical predictions of where the stabbings will take place. Big accolade for that a few months ago.
    Taking the names or identity through the photo’s of those who are likely not British born, (i.e. of ‘foreign extraction’), the number is 46 of the 100.
    The Economists figures for Jan, Feb, March of 2018 –
    https://www.economist.com/graphic-detail/2018/04/03/new-yorks-annual-murder-statistics-are-still-worse-than-londons
    Perhaps they’d like to amend the article headed, “New York’s annual murder statistics are still worse than London’s” for 2019?
    Reduce the numbers of those killed by the stroke of a pen? Simples. Send all foreigners back to their homeland.

      Not sure how you worked this out, but if there are fewer than 1 death per day then there cannot be more deaths than days in the year, a maximum of 365.

      I run those numbers every so often for academic reasons

      Without social or legal control feral boys will increasingly hurt kill each other in cities and it will just be a ‘price ‘

      There is no solution in current circumstances

      For instance a Tory MP suggested putting a chip in every knife. They are that dumb .

      Very often the solution is demographic as in the number of males in the population of the stabby age range – say 13 to 30 .

      This is more complicated now as the open door immigration policy cannot predict numbers .

      Death penalty won’t help but would save money .
      ID cards could help but would be used against decent people by the Stasi as easy targets .

      Londonistan homicides used to average about 119 for a 6 million population . Now the pop is at least 8 million. The body count for 2018 was 135

      I reckon on about 160 for this year – mainly diverse killers of diverse victims .

      I’m just waiting for next whitee killer of a black kid so that the whole racial industry can go into action – including – of course the BBC .

          You make a good point that headline policies like NHS etc are never far apart so what’s to choose? ‘Where should we be ruled from’ seems like a basic question and we even got an answer in 2016.

    The BBC Climatogeddon and Anti-plastic Jihad.

    I’d be the first to admit I’m no climate scientist, so although I’ve long had doubts about many of the BBC’s claims re: Climatogeddon, until a few years ago I was prepared to take their word for it. Clearly (I’d reason with myself), they’re advised by better informed individuals than me on the subject, people who could be trusted to know what they were talking about, and if the odd article jarred a bit with my own scientific knowledge, well maybe it was just a misunderstanding on the part of the reporter, or my own ignorance.

    Now, in recent months the BBC have been going mental about ‘plastics’, thanks to the venerable St. David the Attenborough (a man I once looked up to). ‘Plastics’ are something I happen to know quite a bit about, having a couple of degrees in the subject, and rather a few years experience in compunding and using various polymeric materials for high-tech engineering applications.

    To cut a long story short, quite frankly the BBC are totally and utterly clueless when it comes to ‘plastics’. I can’t read any of their articles on the subject without frothing at the mouth at the inaccuracies and fallacies they constantly repeat, and I’m sure if I still had a TV licence and watched any of their ‘news’ on the subject I’d blow a fuse. The problem is just they don’t have a clue what they’re talking about, and it shows – do they have no technical advisers on the subject?

    Quite frankly, I’ve never read so much, ill informed, ignorant, pseudo-science bullshit… err… ever.

    Which makes me wonder about everything else they produce on ‘scientific’ and ‘technical’ subjects. In fact, on EVERYTHING they produce… is it all just shit? Yes, I think it probably is.

    PS The problem with plastic waste (and it is a problem) is entirely a problem with waste disposal, not plastics themselves. Plastics are wonderful materials which have totally revolutionised the world and without which life, as we know it, supporting so many billions of humans and providing them with fresh food and effective medicines, would now be physically impossible.

    PPS The solution is simple, high temperature incineration, close to the source of the waste. Burn any polymer hot enough and you generate energy (which we could use) and a little carbon dioxide (which could be removed at exhaust with scrubbers, especially algal ones, the algae then being used as soil fertiliser/animal feed… as they could with most other ‘fossil fuel’ powerplants actually, making me wonder what all this ‘pumping Co2 into the atmosphere’ fuss is about… but, that’s another story).

    PPPS Shipping our waste plastics half way around the world to some ‘industrialising nation’ in the Far East, so that it can be ‘recycled’ (e.g. chucked in the river). is an act of absolute lunacy and incredibly cynical eco-destruction. I wonder who thought that scam up… oh, I see.

    Andrew Neil showed a clip of ex-Labour MP Ian Austin tearing Jeremy Corbyn apart.

    Good to see and it appears to be more evidence that the BBC is not that fond of Corbyn. Perhaps they think he is carrying too much extremist, terrorist-loving, anti—Semitic baggage to be elected PM, resulting in Labour failing in the next GE. And that would of course mean a pitiful lack of empty champagne bottles in BBC corridors.

    Neil also defended Marr against Farage. I found that a bit strange as it really was a useless interview, with Marr pushing a narrow, lefty agenda to discredit Farage and showing no interest whatsoever in Brexit’s remarkable capturing of the public imagination. Neil really couldn’t see that?

    Neil had a young blonde Brexit Party member on the show. A rare species indeed, seldom seen in BBC habitat.

    I’m interested to know how the BBBC will react in order to minimise the newsworthiness of a landslide Brexit party victory in the MEP elections. I’d bet my favourite pants on them describing it as merely a protest vote and little more than that, unlike the Lib Dem mega victory in the council elections, which was a turning point in British politics. (Btw, is it just me or does Vince Cable remind you of Kenneth Williams in Carry on Screaming? I half expect him to announce “Frying tonight?” Before any speech).

      They’ll present it as a disturbing move to the Right by the great unwashed basket of deplorables, who haven’t had the EU adequately explained to them; who are therefore in need of further re-education with even more propaganda and scare stories that the beeb will be happy to provide.

      Add together all the votes of those who voted for any Party other than TBP and UKIP…then add to that the number of all those who didn’t vote. That will CLEARLY show the People’s wish to remain… 🙁

        Pro Homo BBC strangely never use the G word when dealing with these stories..
        Jack Renshaw had his faults, true, but was a tax payer too,
        Why isn’t the BBC outraged that zero NHS money is directed to help stop the bent plague that’s sweeping the west ? they could at least look to try and find the cause.
        Like that bloke John Snow, who stopped a cholera outbreak
        in Soho 1854, by noticing they all used the same contaminated water tap.

        Maxi
        I’m stunned – you actually have posted something about the BBC as opposed to comments made by people here. Well done you and let there be more of the same .

        As for your comment – I suspect the reason there was only 15 seconds on this sentencing was that they don’t want to enough ideas about the treatment of other traitor MPs —over 500 of them if you don’t include the traitor Speaker

        Maybe I’m misreading your comment as an attempt at dry humour – if so you need to do far better ….

          Ian has not said or had to say ‘deewall’ the last few times I have heard him on R4 so I’m hoping for it at least once tomorrow morning on TOADY.

        K,

        ““aspiring accountant” is that bbc speak for cant do sums yet”

        I was thinking this very thing a minute or so a go when I glanced a shot of some “”“aspiring historian of UK politics” when being questioned on BBC TV News – she was blonde, pretty, in her late teens – well, that’s what I guessed her age to be – and she didn’t half go on a bit. I don’t care what they say – no one young can know so much as to be invited on BBC TV News to give their professional opinion on Politics. She just isn’t old enough.

        Can’t think who questioned her? Could have been Hew – stiff haired – Edwards, himself?

    He’ll be OK in a few days, preferably after next Thursday…

    Why does the political bunch of morons in Westminster think that they really understand ‘a deal’? A real deal is when companies agree to make more business work better, make profits for shareholders and their customers. Not piddle around in the HOC wanking away at petty squabbles, gabbling away at commercial issues they don’t understand, make ‘laws’ which they’ll never see work, but who cares…

    The autocue readers on the bbbc progs are of the same ilk; naive, unfocussed, brainwashed, usually silly, unprepared, unable to understand real business ethics, ‘trained’ at some tin-pot ‘college’, likely to have hissy fits, lovers of ‘diversity’, very rich on TV tax-payers’ money, self-opinionated, generally disliked by normal people, scorned by the guy in a white van whi is trying to earn a crust, seen as the main problem for the left, and secretly despised, perhaps not as much as Blair or Brown, but hated all the same, not very attractive these days and generally a waste of space on our treasured airwaves!

        This morning it was some very young female trendy in her bovver boots and tinted hair all down her left side of her head – while balancing that mass of hair – with the big metal studs in her right ear.

        Oh, did I mention, her hair was all shaved off except on her left side.

        She simply couldn’t stop smiling. No wonder both her and her camera crew awash with cash.

    The Sun Newspaper today:

    “”TOUGH JUSTICE Donald Trump says cop killers should ‘immediately’ get death penalty after ‘quick trials’
    The US president said those convicted of ambushing and killing America’s police officers must pay the ultimate price””

    “It’s got to be fair, but it’s got to go fast,” he said at a ceremony for fallen officers at the US Capitol, in Washington DC.

    “That’s happening. Fair, but fast, right?”

    “”Trump also hit out at the light penalties that some “big city” prosecutors have given violent criminals saying his US-Mexico border wall will keep out criminals.””

    “”And slammed those who file false police reports which is being seen as a reference to Empire actor Jussie Smollett, who is accused of staging the highly publicised attack in Chicago.””

    “”Trump said his administration condemns anti-police rhetoric, while arguing the majority of Americans fully support law enforcement.””
