      ITV did a tweet about an item where a BLM activist and an older guy discussed racism
      when the replies pointed out they’ve both been involved in some anti-Semitic stuff
      ITV deleted both the tweet and their web article

      (BTW it’s wrong to mess around deleting the news record like that
      .. rather correction notes should be added at the top.
      The BBC has played that same trick before , let FakeNews start and then quietly deleted the record later.)

    In the early 70’s TV show U.F.O. the first line of defence were the ‘Interceptors’ on the Moon, where they were tasked with destroying incoming UFO’s before they got to Earth.

    In BBC land, however, the word ‘intercept’ means something totally different. In the Kent regional section of their webshite, it details how five boats carrying 49 invaders were ‘intercepted’ and brought to Dover. In my book that means they were picked up by our Border Farce having been escorted across the Channel by the French Navy.

    The Government are treating us with complete and utter contempt, because this is is happening on a daily basis now. As I type this the French vessel ‘Fourmentin’ has been making its way across the channel at barely 2 knots, which means they’re escorting more invaders and, lo and behold, our Border Farce vessel, ‘Speedwell’ has recently left Dover Harbour and is on an intercept course.

    More invaders incoming…

      Had to laugh though at Lineker sticking his nose in – and his ears most likely – with the following statement on the Beeb’s webshite this morning:

      The former England striker said he understood “kids wouldn’t ordinarily be fed during the summer holidays,” but these are “very, very difficult times.”

    A telling throwaway moment on BBC Breakfast TV which we switched on briefly to get the weather forecast.

    They were engrossed in the latest LeftMob issue of the day- free school meals when there is no school.

    At the end Naga casually said in terms’ we won’t let this story drop’.

    So. Proof that the BBC now regards itself not as the purveyor of news but is itself now a campaigning organisation – but of course only for the LeftMob issues that it itself deems fit for our collective indoctrination.

    The Marxists are loving this. We’re being told where to stand, what to wear and who we can meet. The latest in this dictatorial insanity is the face mask. If you wish to go on public transport anywhere in London you are now obliged to wear one of these face nappies. They look ludicrous and are utterly useless in guarding against a virus. As one epidemiologist has said,”It’s like thinking a chain link fence will protect you from mosquitos”. But people will still wear them.
    Mayor Khan has already stated, with ill disguised relish, that he expects this new apparel to be “compulsory for a year or two… at least.”
    These constant instructions are infantilising us. We’re told “wash your hands”, FFS, I’ve been doing that since I was three. “Go out and applaud on Thursday evenings”. “Stand there”. “You mustn’t do that”.

    I’m not going to wear a bloody face nappy, nor am I donning a tinfoil hat or standing on one leg as I queue for hours to get into frigging Primark.

    They are squeezing any enjoyment out of the things we used to do quite naturally. There is a new Marxist, Puritanism sweeping this nation and it’s far more insidious, dangerous and contagious than the bloody virus ever was.

      Then, sometimes, they let them loose on us- if ‘decolonisation’ in the UK is the topic, for instance. Then you need one of those well-paid advisers, telling us how bad we are, demanding an apology and -natuerlich- reparations.
      I think we’re going to hear a lot about apologies and ‘reparations’. This particular industry has only just begun.

        G, thanks for that, very interesting, but…
        Our society can’t continue in this way. We’re a service based economy. Pubs, restaurants, bistros, hotels, clubs and bars need as many people going through their doors as possible. You can’t possibly run any of these with folk sitting two metres apart and attempting to communicate while wearing these mouth mufflers. You can’t eat wearing these ludicrous appliances. You certainly couldn’t have a drink.

        Often the people wearing these things behave irrationally. I saw a woman the other afternoon, standing at a bus stop wearing one of these Dick Turpin masks, while trying to smoke. She kept pulling the thing aside so she could draw on her fag.

        I think that it’s far better that we deal with this illness in a sensible, old fashioned way. No panic. No keeping the population housebound. We do a Sweden. Or, put it another way, we keep calm and carry on.

        We all know that “coughs and sneezes spreads diseases”. Be sensible; don’t shout into people’s faces; strangely, I tend not to anyway. If I was to start bawling at someone sitting opposite me, “STAY HEALTHY”, I wouldn’t need a face mask, I’d need a strait jacket!

        You can’t live your life behind a veil.
        It’s not right, it’s not reasonable, it’s not British and further more…

        G, yes, as I posted early on in the Pandemic, the face mask protects the patient in theatre – from the necessary speech of surgeon giving instructions to a nurse, for example – am sure Docmarooned will confirm. It does not protect the wearer.

        That is why years ago, dentists tended to wear masks when doing extractions, especially with an assistant present. It was to protect the patient not the wearer.

        Masks will only work from yesterday onwards for protecting others from asymptomatic people who are already infected with any coronavirus (with the exception of norovirus and its summer equivalent) but don’t know it. They will be a vanishing small part of the population and will have to have come into contact with the NHS & staff, Care Homes & staff, people who have travelled international (especially by aircraft or ship) and that last group would also include illegal immigrants.

    Here’s a voxpop which will not find its way onto the BBC.

    Mrs S was on a social group call yesterday evening with five others.
    The unanimous view was that regrettably there are currently no platforms for white people to gain support and thus they are in a sort of minority. The only white group given any exposure is the ‘Far Right’.

    Did you notice I said ‘they’ not ‘we’?
    Because four of the six were BAME !!!!!

    But long-standing BAME who see themselves not as victims but as normal UK citizens and are not remotely represented by BLM.

    Quite comforting in a way to have proof close to home that in the real world are ordinary people of all ethnicities with ordinary views who are totally and utterly ignored by the victim-seeking anti-British BBC.

      I don’t want to be tarred Far Right because I am white with an opinion and I am sure those in the BAME don’t want to be lumped into a group labelled BLM (or BAME for that matter) because of colour

    It looks like the theme for this week is school meals.

    Let’s attack the government for starving children while forgetting the unions have been keeping children from going back to school and of course no mention that most children who have been off school have parents who have been furloughed.

    The furlough scheme never gets mentioned. Here we have a right wing government who are paying 80% of people’s wages and never does it get mentioned. All of these ‘how are people coping on lockdown’ articles how it is effecting people and never once do they wonder what people think of 80% of their wages being paid. Perhaps it would generate a top positive response towards the government?

    The same with opinion polls. Lots of questions asked about what people think of the handling of the pandemic or what people think of Dominic Cummings but never any questions asked on furlough.

          I was beaten up badly at 11 years of age by a black 20something for no reason whatever. He just fancied beating a whitey.

          I’d love to share this experience, can (or importantly) would the BBC oblige?

              I had a glass bottle thrown at me by one of a group of Black “yoot” outside some cultural centre in R… back in the mid-1980s. It smashed on the pavement between me and an oncoming Black woman, who at least could have seen and avoided it. I just heard the whoosh then the smash, and hurried on with my suitcase in hand.

              More seriously, another Black caused a lot of trouble for me in an office over 25 years ago, siding with one junior member of staff and two at the same level against me and generally stirring things behind my back and even within earshot. The whole course of my life changed (not for the better) after I decided to leave … whereas the offender had a good career and early retirement.

              I’m looking forward to Fi Glover interviewing me for R4’s the Listening Project … …

              JA – Sympathy, but do not feel alone.
              Similar thing happened to me, way back in 1970. I was walking from movies to have a toasted sandwich nearby, with a uni friend, past some deserted buildings, after dark.
              He had stopped to talk to someone and, impatient to get a move on, i simply continued walking. There was a noise behind me, my mate, I thought – and turned. Smackedy bang, into a brick, which bounced off my head.
              (This would explain a lot, I hear you thinking, but bear with me.)
              A black ‘gentleman’ followed up with a piece of piping, which deflected off my wrist, leaving a huge blood blister. Since I was still standing, this bloke decided to run. He could have finished me off, really, I couldn’t see because of all the blood in my eyes. My mate flagged down a car, which took me to hospital. (This was long before mobile phones.)
              I remember it well, it was a Jag, the back seat of which I bled all over. The worst was, not knowing whether I was about to die, or simply superficially injured.
              The latter.
              Strange, when you’re young, you think differently. Once I was sorted, the thing I was most upset about was having to turf out my best (suede) coat.
              I even felt philosophical. wrong place, wrong colour.
              Today I feel a tad less easy about it, looking at what is going on around me.
              Still, we’re OK aren’t we?

        Well if it’s racist to decide to avoid engagement of any type with anyone from a BAME background as far as possible, simply because you fear that you may be persecuted or prosecuted for wrong thought or speech, without even being aware of your guilt, then many, many white British will quietly decide that their own communities should benefit more from their charity and support.

    The BBC have suddenly discovered unemployment!

    Like the good Socialists (Wrongists) that they are, they forgot about it in May 1997 just like the then Labour Government. It’s hardly merited a mention since. Except of course, through gritted teeth when the ONS have been able to report constant falls in unemployment during the time of the Coalition Government 2010-2015 and the Conservative Government since then.

She spotted a black approaching on the pavement. She kept her eyes on him and when he was close, he lunged at her. She ran out into the busy road to escape what she thought was an attack. She explained her reasoning which was, if she was going to be attacked at the hands of a black thug, she would rather end her time by being knocked down in the road……

    Ominous signs show the West is being engaged in escalating Civil War. Just 100 years after Europe’s first attempt at suicide during the Great War, all of the nations constituting Western civilization are engaged in civil war. It’s not quite like previous civil wars fought in the West such as the English Civil War and the American Civil War. But it is equally as destructive and although armed conflict hasn’t broken out thus far, should things continue escalating as they did in 1965, vicious fighting is sure to ensue.
    Unlike the previous civil wars fought in western history, the current civil war taking place in all western nations has a number of crucial differences. Not only are people of the same race and nationality fighting each other; there’s a mishmash of races that have migrated to and settled in the West who are also waging this civil war on the indigenous people whose only crime is the desire to preserve their nations, identities and cultures for future generations. This is a fundamental human right for all peoples. Yet because of six decades of mass immigration and forcibly imposed multiculturalism committed by a succession of treacherous governments, this precious human right is being denied to one people and only one people.
    I assert multiculturalism – which should be more accurately called ‘cultural Marxism’ – is by its very nature a war on the peoples of the West. Under the yoke of this pernicious Marxist ideology, all-white countries are not permitted to oppose multiculturalism; strictly forbidden. All mainstream political parties are implementing multiculturalism and criminalising individuals who dare to oppose it. Forcibly imposed multiculturalism has morphed into the new religion of truth all whites must accept and believe in without question – or else. Claims theGerman philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche.
    Racism has become the new heresy and globalist politicians supported by an army of race-baiters are the new inquisitors. In the 21st century, rule of law, one of the greatest achievements in Western history, a system created by whites to bring order to society, is now being used as a weapon against whites for the hate-crime of merely wanting to preserve their nations, cultures and identities. Western history is being rewritten and condemned, depicting white colonialists as evil invaders who oppressed and exploited other races. False narratives are regurgitated as the gospel truth, notably white nationalism causes wars, and slavery is a mortal sin white people and only white people are guilty of committing throughout their history. Because of these unpardonable sins, racism is a wicked crime all whites are deemed to be guilty of from birth as they benefit from unjust white privilege.
    Conveniently, the long, brutal histories of African blacks and Arab colonialism via the spread of Islam are, either completely ignored or rewritten, highlighting their minimal contributions to humanity and exaggerating them to the nth degree.The devious aim here of course is to associate quite reasonable opposition to multiculturalism with national-socialism. This straw-man is then used to justify violent attacks committed by extreme left-wing organizations, many of them backed and funded by socialist political parties and egged on by the media.
    The Black Lives Matter terrorist organization is a particularly stark, nasty example of this civil war. Its race-focused, divisive message implies that black lives don’t matter to whites, especially police. Should police officers shoot black criminals, Black Lives Matter exploits it as an excuse to indulge in rioting, looting and assaulting white people. Even if the police shooter is black. Be in no doubt: This has nothing to do with black lives and everything to do with anti-white racial hatred.

    The Prime Minister Surkeer Surkeer has not yet decided.
    The weather is quite warm. As soon as the office of the President tells the beeb, we’ll know what the temperature is.
    That information will be relayed to weatherman, Mr Johnson, who has a wind vane, thermometer and rain gauge in his office. If he contradicts the President’s office, he shall be in the proverbial, and have to sail down a wire, as punishment.
    Alternatively, he may need to drive to Durham and back. A mr Burr Cow, not from the Louse of Hordes (yet) will decide which it will be.
    Of course, it could be a tie.

    Food is actually cheaper now that it has ever been – so these parents with hungry kids are either incompetent or couldn’t care less or simply lazy scroungers –

    I might be wrong but assume many of the ‘most deprived’ people are collecting some form of benefit -which won’t have changed in pandemic – so why is it an issue now? No debate by BBC…

    And now they finally find a person who hasn’t benefited by the Govt business support – funny I have spoken to over 20 friends and colleagues in business (including the beauty business like this woman) and they have all got help with no issue..

      Why do people expect everyone else to feed their kids for them? Child benefit is given to every parent on the basis that it’s to ensure that, whatever the financial situation, they can feed and clothe their offspring to a basic standard.

      I saw the report on bbbc 10 o’clock news last night, it would’ve been hilarious if it wasn’t so ridiculous. They made a visit to where Rashford’s was brought up in Wythenshawe. They managed to find a mother to interview who supported the cause. She told the interviewer how difficult it is to make ends meet and that it is a constant battle to put food on the table (no idea what she spends her money on but it isn’t shampoo) – she even uttered the usual bollox of “it’s so hard when you don’t know where your next meal is coming from”. Trouble was this lady was 20 stone if she was an ounce – the bbbc has absolutely no self-awareness.

      AISI, if I was Rishi, I would introduce a new tax in October/November called the ‘Future Generations Tax’.

      Initially, it would be a tax, deducted at source, on the incomes of Premiership and Championship footballers. Eventually, I would extend it to all sportsmen and sportswomen competing in events in the UK. The money raised would be ringfenced, ie. hypothecated, for education just like the current ‘Sugar Tax’ is for school playing fields and ‘Renewable Energy Tax’ is for wind turbines and solar panels.

      An initial rate of 10% could be adjusted in future. Marcus Rashord and others on the Manchester United payroll will have the deduction paid direct to the Treasury by the Club.

      If say, Roger Federer wins a future Wimbledon Championship, then 10% of his prize money and advertising endorsements linked to the victory would be deducted and paid to the Treasury by the All England Club and the advertising agencies involved.

      Same for Louis Hamilton at the British GP and so on. I am sure these sports people will be really pleased to play an extra part in the education and well-being of young people now and in the future.

      Hundreds of families in Herefordshire and Worcestershire are breathing a sigh of relief after the government changed its mind of providing free meals to school children over the summer holidays.
      Vulnerable families will continue to receive vouchers after the end of term, in recognition of the extra hardship caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
      It follows a campaign by the Manchester United footballer Marcus Rashford.

    BBC WEB-SITE Watch #3 – Not a favourable impression

    The BBC like to promote wimmin. See my previous post about the Skripal drama where the gender of the police officer first attending to Sergei and Yulia has been changed. Never mind the historical record.

    Yesterday and today the web-site has contained two items that do the females concerned absolutely no favours whatsoever. The BBC think they may be promoting them, favouring women, to restore some perceived past wrong or imbalance. Instead, the BBC make the women appear stupid, brainless bimbos. I object to that!

    Row 9 of the current page: ‘Feeling frazzled? Try these mood-boosting tips’ under BBC Bitesize. Its really a free advertisement for a YouTube vlogger called Louise Pentland. It had a double photo of her that has now been changed in scale. She looks really stupid, pulling an eye rolling pose for the camera with a hand poised awkwardly under her chin in the first pic and rather overweight holding a child in the second.

    If that’s the free advertising that the BBC will do now and in future then businesses may wish to look to other media for their publicity.

    The same is true of the next ‘victim’, er, I mean candidate who proudly proclaims: ‘Bras? I haven’t worn one in months.’ while pulling the most gormless of faces that not only makes her appear stupid and brainless but extremely unattractive as well. This second item is ‘BBC Sesh’ apparently. No? Me, neither. Something and someone to avoid it would appear.

    The BBC do know how not ‘to pull ’em in’ in the era in which we live.

    I’m not watching TV and listening to far less BBC radio than ever. Think I might be avoiding much of the web-site in the near future as well.
