      BBC ‘Investigation’

      A drone operated by the United Arab Emirates killed 26 unarmed cadets in Tripoli in January 2020, a BBC investigation has found.

      If only they had said ‘I can’t breathe’ for 20’ too.

      https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-53917791?

      Is evidence unproven and implication enough to convict for a killing?

        The sign makes sense
        If we t the bottom of the picture, we see it telling us ‘don’t come this way it’s exit only’
        .. and from her side she is exiting.

      I think that by now even the most ardent Boris fanatic must realise the bloke is a complete plank. Yes, I know, I voted for him too, but I did have an excuse. The Brexit Party had stood down in my area and my own MP is solid on the subject. Also, in the red corner, was Jeremy Corbyn and his ghastly mob of anti-Semitic Momentum thugs. Easy peasy.

      But my God, look what’s happened. Okay, so you wouldn’t wish this pandemic problem on your worst enemy. However, our PM stumbles about like a drunk on the dancefloor. He hasn’t got a scooby-do. If I’d wanted to live in some dystopian hybrid cross between Venezuela and North Korea, I’d have voted for Corbyn.

      Already this morning I’ve heard Boris and his ever present side kick side-kick, Himmler Hancock, clearly priming us for further catastrophic lockdowns. It’s been apparent for months that these economically suicidal measures don’t work; they just delay. We’ve seen what’s happened in Spain, France, Italy and Belgium. And we have also seen what’s happened, or more to the point, not happened, in Sweden.
      No lockdown, no masks, no school closures…no problems…

      There’s an anti Lockdown demo at Trafalgar Square today. I don’t particularly fancy it, but I have to go…
      This utter insanity has to stop.

            You should be cherishing the forthcoming saturation with “Diversitee” particularly black. We will be changing the economy for them. After all, if that were based solely on recreational drugs, murder and mayhem, the blacks instinctive penchant for same and their ‘entrepreneurial’ skills would come shining through. Yes, when that economy is flourishing and no blacks attend for a then unwanted schooling, it will leave the gap for the whitee to prosper without hindrance.

      Earlier, I voluntarily allowed my ears and brain to be abused.
      Toadies report on politics in the US earlier, yet again relied upon the discredited “Polls” which have consistently shown the Communists in the lead. That’s the BBC ‘backbone’ in any report. Don’t they just understand that for most people, the games up for their reporting and indeed, Pollsters. Most listeners understand the BBC’s bias certainly against DJT.

      Apart from a sub-normal person, who can believe that with the ongoing rioting and destruction facilitated and encouraged by the ‘Bidon Team’ that the polls back the Communists?

        The malady, common among political leaders who commit heartless crimes while craving popular adulation (Russian President/Chinese Communist Leader and that Belarus dictator come to mind) as heroes and misunderstood saints, is ‘Political Munchausen Syndrom by Proxy’. PMSP best explains the pathologic drive of politicians and policy makers who inflict relentless, systematic mass destruction and then intervene in a most theatrical manner to save a few victims-thus drawing gratitude from the victim and public support for their ‘humanitarian intervention,’ -ignorant of their fundamental role in creating the mayhem in the first place.
        Barack Obama in the last three days of his administration present an example of PMSP on the domestic front.
        Throughout his 8 years as President of the USA, Obama exibited many symtoms of PMSPboth abroad and in the US. For his cynical crimes he was awarded the ‘Nobel Peace Prize’ among other honours. His relentless military interventions across the Middle East were characterised by deliberate and total destruction of the means of normal civilised social existence for defenceless civilians -bombing homes, schools, hospitals, factories, markets, social functions, leading to deaths of may thousands and the uprooting of millions into desperate flight-the results we are seeing as the invasion of immigration spreads across Europe. In each case Obama would proclaim that he was saving victims from imminent genocide by an abusive ruler or ethnic group. A few bedraggled survivors given a few blankets, as a result of his own bombing campaigns and he would bask in the glowing praise of mass media propagandists and fellow imperialists. Choreographed applause and adulation would seem to follow America’s First Black President everywhere. Guilty of destroying entire nations, shredding their institutions and infrastructure. The capsised boatloads of fleeing black Libyans and bloated bodies washing ashore on the beaches of Spain and Italy were never linked to the criminal policies of our ‘Nobel Prize recipient! He then urged Europe to accept the miserable refugees fleeing his war-in a gesture of supreme PMSP. This serial political killer had an unquenchable thirst for sympathy and admiration and a wholly corrupt propaganda machine to polish his halo. Chelsea Manning’s subjugation is an horrific display of virtuosic Political Munchausen Syndrome.

      British Library Demands White Staff Support Black Lives Matter Thugs!The British Library, funded almost exclusively by ENGLISH TAXPAYERS, has demanded white staff support the thugs and communists of the Black Lives Matter movement.
      An internal email to “fellow white colleagues” demanded staff give money to Black Lives Matter funds for bailing out their looters and criminals and to back a petition organised by the Stand Up to Racism activist organisation and anti-English Loudmouth Diane Abbott.
      The email instructs their staff in “ways that white people can support the Black Lives Matter movement through both action and education by reading material on slavery, policing, and prison in the U.S., alongside a chart outlining overt and covert forms of ‘white supremacy’.”
      The email then pushes white staff to read books outlining their supposed racial privilege and “the works of Marxist authors”.
      Seemingly they realy do hate us because we are proud English patriots.I am sick to the back teeth, as no doubt all of you are, of being told we MUST feel shame because of our nationality, our heritage and our skin colour.
      I am proud of the accomplishments of OUR ancestors and people and will not be told otherwise by snowflake liberals and immigrants who hate our country!

        Agree. One of the few ways we can easily protest without harming anyone in anyway is stop paying the BBC their blood money. If enough people refuse to pay the License Fee the BBC is powerless to enforce it and will crumble within weeks. The Wokists rely heavily on the corporation for propaganda and without it will be much less powerful. The time for Mass Action is now.

        Not a surprise. The entire so called educated class (OK there are a few exceptions) has been body snatched. Pods presumably left outside their university digs or dorms or wherever they slept. Then in the morning the pod people have taken over. It is impossible to reason with them. The videos coming from the US show a BLM movement now out of control and descending into riot and theft. What happens there always follows here so we should beware. Maybe not so bad. Hopefully. Get out of London if you can over the winter.

          The BBC have a team of journalists / woke intellectuals working on creating stories about this black man who played the “Black Panther” in a comic book movie – about how amazing and fabulous he was, and the impact he had on British and American children and youth and culture and black power etc etc.

          It is the LEAD story across the BBC website – on its homepage, its news homepage, its world news homepage. I can spot at a glance five separate reports on him so far.

      2020-08-29-1049-cbbc-newsround-top-stories.jpg
      .

      The middle story is written solely for the purpose of encouraging British kids to become activists:

      https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/53949980

      I have plenty more examples of this where the BBC purposely design “news” content for children to encourage, persuade or emotionally traumatize them into becoming activists and to go on marches for various causes including Black Lives Matter, LGBTQ+ rights, Rights for Muslims, Climate Change and many others. And whenever they encourage kids to go on marches (this time in London) they never mention the issue of coronavirus.

      Whatever the BBC may have been in the past, it is now clearly a campaigning organisation. The BBC really have to be defunded. There is no saving it.

But few of our enrichers exhibit any tolerance, nor do Wokists. It will be the tolerance of White Britain that leads to its demise. Tolerance has been taken too far, far too far, it’s time to push back and celebrate our British culture without compromise and if the enrichers don’t like it, well they can f*** off.

I was going to post on something else but can’t be bothered because at the moment everything palls into insignificance compared to how the BBC are treating the death of this “Black Panther” actor.

      It just shows where the focus of the BBC as an organisation lies. It doesn’t give a damn about the ordinary English and British people and the stories that matter to them.

      Instead its focus is all on celebrity, identity, narratives, pushing the woke agenda for change, attacking traditional western culture and its people. It seems to be trapped in its own woke bubble of privilege and sneery pseudo-intellectualism.

        This obsession with cult celebrities and the woke agenda of the BBC, is more evidence that the age group deciding the output of news and programmes, must be all under 50.

        These would be the yuni students who would have been amongst the first to take Meeja Studies, and susceptible to the indoctrination of the well established pc leftist ideology of their tutors. Even old stalwarts like Joan Bakewell said a few years ago that the BBC was now “run by children”.

        Sadly us ‘oldies’ remember the best of the BBC as we were growing up, and which was run literally by men in the grey suits, who had probably served during the war, knew what their audience wanted, and before political correctness took a stranglehold on their business. If these ‘grey suits’ were guilty of anything during their tenure, it was the failure to respond quickly enough to the obscenities of Jimmy Saville as they were too much in awe of him.

        Now we have the back -to-front baseball cap culture of the BBC, it will only get worse as the next generation of snowflake wimps take responsibility for programme output – and become even harder to get your tongue around the far greater number of cultural names that will appear.

        Tabs – according to ‘compact-online’, attempts were made to have the Berlin demo banned. There were also numerous attempts at restrictions of various kinds.
        However, the report says that the Constitutional Court in Karlsruhe rejected the banning attempt, and allowed the demo to proceed.
        Very much in the spirit of “Wir sind das Volk” (We are the People), the demo declared itself to be a ‘Constitutional Convention’. Someone called Michael Ballweg headed that up.
        Compact claims the demo was organised by “Q”, standing for “Querdenker” or “Contrarians”.
        Some here who follow US coverage may recognise the “Q”.
        Compact says that Facebook previously took down its website in order to prevent publicity for the march.

        Saw some coverage of the London event, but it had a distinctly lefty flavour. I think Corbyn’s brother may have been a speaker.

      This Banksy vandal has apparently spent something like £800,000 on a boat to ferry illegals into our country.

      Isn’t he now engaged in criminal activities.

      If so, shouldn’t be be prosecuted? And the boat confiscated?

      Or am I missing some relevant information?

        It is a shame HMS Conqueror was decommissioned. We appear to have another job for her. HMS Ambush sounds like a good substitute. Maybe we could tell the French it is a Greenpeace boat like the one they attacked in New Zealand.

      I really can’t keep up with the BBC output. It has over 22,000 employees and an annual spend close to £5 billion and it expects the British people to pay for it. There needs to be immediate political action to bring it to account.

      There is real news somewhere out there that the British people need to know, that is relevant to their lives, their job prospects, their way of life, their futures but it is all being hidden away by piles and piles of irrelevant celebrity and woke agenda bullshite.

        BOBOTC, that’s why they brought in ‘Local TV’ and radio…

        It was supposed to be important for localities, but is now not much better than a flyer for a kebab dump and a few charity shops!

        The content is just dire, with pics of rockapes, and their various kids and partners, moaning about Pontins or some other hole…

        I thought real journalists cut their teeth in the provinces, then moved onto the dailies or the BBC etc.

        It’s clear that the BBC got the ‘top-level’, as it’s just awful now.

        The BBC narrative is:
        a) Far-right thugs need to be destroyed and the protests against them were justified.
        b) We must all be vigilante against the far right and be respectful towards Islam.

        This is how they headlined that story:
        2020-08-29-1540-World-01.jpg

        Note the adjacent story where the BBC praises a former ISIS jihadi. He went to Syria to kill Christians and others on behalf of the Islamic State but has since returned to Belgium where he has turned his life around with music.

      I know that I can be accused of being a racist.But please
      somebody tell me if I am being paranoid.Why do I see
      so many main feature pictures on the BBC website of ethnic
      kids?
      There is absolutely nothing wrong with black, brown yellow
      kids .I live in a street with a mixture of ethnicity you would
      be proud of in a multicultural society.
      Is it just a coincidence that so many of these pictures just
      do not show Caucasion children.Or is it that BIG BROTHER
      from the BBC’s diversity dept ,insists on these pictures?

      BBC News channel interviewing a crew member on the Banksy migrant ferry ship in the Med. The crew member kept saying the European authorities are not responding to their calls of help.

      The BBC at no point asked why they are not asking nearby Africa for help instead.

      The print arm of the bBBC has, surprise, surprise, another institutional racism story.

      Prof Chris Jackson, who this year will be the first black person to present the Royal Institution Christmas lectures, has said such organisations have a key role to play in addressing issues including racism and transphobia.

      Speaking to the Guardian, the professor of geology at Imperial College London said racism in the scientific community had prevented black academics from previously being asked to present.

        Aw, I wondered why there are so few black academics. That explains it then. Did he think that ability had anything to do with it? Being an ‘Scientist’ and all I would have thought he would be objective.
