I have had a baking fit! Lemon drizzle – very lemony!, cheese bread sticks, cheddar, egg, basil, mustard, sun dried tomatoes, garlic, rosemary and toped off with parmesan, then a 2 ciabatta loaves.
POOR JOURNALISM
The shit mail manages to get a quote from a former Hamas hostage stating that Starmer is appeasing Hamas. I wonder if they paid them as well? Of course a former hostage would be biased – I would. But there have been deaths of 60.000 Palestinians – I wonder how many Palestinians could given an alternative view? Bu the Daily Hate just wants its readers to hate Starmer, Palestinians and thousands of others (especially Angela Rayner!). 14 more countries have said they will recognise Palestine – and Britains largest Jewish Group has spoken out about the need for immediate aid to be delivered to Gaza.
Meanwhile an extra 5 million age checks have been done daily by porn sites – How Mr Fuckwit Farage is that a bad thing? A judge has also allowed the founder of Palestinian Action to query Yvette Coopers decision to make it a banned organisation (which also resulted in more than 200 people being arrested; often for just displaying a Palestinian flag. hopefully we can keep proscribed terror groups to those who warrant it! I think that the only vandalism this group initiated was to spray paint on some RAF planes. Rather than repeal the shit laws passed by the nasty party over the past 5 years, it seems that Labour is using them to create even less freedom of speech.
WHY?
Why do the trash press love Israel. I know they want to trash Starmerat every opportunity. His statement is hardly supproting Hamas – and anyway Israeli actions are doing more to support Hamas than anyone! Even Trump did not object to the statement made by Starmer – I would object though – why wait – just take a lead and recognise the Palestinian state; like 140 other members of the UN.
Peter Kyle – do not apologise to Farage. Reform said it would repeal the Online Safety Act as ‘measures intended to push social media companies to limit false nd potentially harmful content would make the UK a borderline dystopian state. Yesterdays post regarding domestic abuse should mean that pornography should only be available with a credit card – Nigel should pay to have a wank! maybe Kyle should paraphrase Manny Skinner – not all Reform MP’s are complete wankers – all of the time – just most. I am not sure the Act goes far enough – but it is a start. Australia and its government that is not renowned for its Liberal tendencies has added YouTube accounts, along with Facebook, Instagram, TikTok , Snapchat and X are all restricted for under 16 year olds ; with fines upto 49.5 million if they fail to take proper precautions to prevent access by children. These, and porn sites make millioons in profit, exploit women (and men) and whilst measures should have been taken long ago, better late than never. it is also more urgent with the ability of AI to replicate porn with childrens images (as has already happened). The perpetrators and the companies must be held responsible. the harm to society as revealed yesterday is beyond comprehension.
I am not calling for censorship of images – however I thought the country had moved on from Page 3 in the Sun and Star. However male desires defy logic. No sensible male would want his daughter to become a prostitute of pornographers model – Incel aside. Perhaps we should go further and make te tech companies responsible for repeated lies – I am thinking about false information – AI should be able to identify repeated false info like during the Brexit campaign?
I will also admit to buying Playboy (with wifes consent/encouragement) and appreciating Page 3 models -but anything that dehumanises women should be banned! As with all censorship the difficulty is where to draw the line! – mid-century censorship was OTT. But I am sure something better than a free for all, and Nigel wanking over schoolgirls, is preferable to nothing!
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE – Fucking angry!
data obtained by the Guardian shows that 41% of the 899 people arrested for taking part in last summers violent disorder had already been referred to the police for domestic abuse. Basically knuckle dragging thugs. Do as I say or I will thump you, I may even thump you because, just because! The 41% figure is similar to other research carried out by the counter terrorism police and Home Office.
What to do about it is the question that needs answering. Should there be a domestic abuse register, like that regarding child abuse? Should courts/police have the power to recommend/enforce attendance on anger management courses (like the speeding ones) at the accused cost. This is an issue much greater than immigration – the stats are horrific and I copy and paste below.
Domestic abuse is a widespread issue with significant impact. Data indicates that roughly one in five adults experience domestic abuse during their lifetime, with women being disproportionately affected. Police-recorded incidents are on the rise, and a substantial number of these incidents go unreported.
1.35 million. The police recorded 1,350,428 domestic abuse-related crimes and incidents in England and Wales in the year ending March 2024. https://www.ncdv.org.uk/domestic-abuse-statistics-uk/
A domestic abuse related call is made to the police every 30 seconds. 89% of people referred to our service seeking civil protection orders last year were women. Women are more likely to experience repeat victimisation, be physically injured or killed and experience sexual violence.
In England and Wales, domestic violence results in a significant number of deaths each year. For the year ending March 2024, there were 108 domestic homicides, with 83 female victims and 25 male victims. A concerning statistic is that 66 of these victims were killed by their partner or ex-partner.Additionally, 262 domestic abuse-related deaths were recorded, including 98 suspected suicides following domestic abuse. Women are disproportionately affected, with 78% of female victims of domestic homicide being killed by a partner or ex-partner, and 92% of female homicide victims being killed by a man. The risk of serious assault and death is particularly high for women after leaving an abusive relationship, with 38% of women killed by an ex-partner being killed within the first month of separation, and 89% within the first year, according to the Femicide Census.
Key Statistics:
- Total Domestic Homicides (Year ending March 2024): 108
- Female Victims: 83
- Male Victims: 25
- Killed by Partner/Ex-Partner: 66
- Domestic Abuse-Related Deaths (Year ending March 2024): 262, including 98 suspected suicides
- Women killed by partner/ex-partner: 78% of female domestic homicide victims, according to the government
- Women killed by men: 92% of female homicide victims, according to the government
- Women killed by ex-partner within one month of separation: 38%, according to the Femicide Census
- Women killed by ex-partner within one year of separation: 89%, according to the Femicide Census
I am humbled and feeling guilty for being a man!
The likes of Farage think it is ok to support the likes of these people who abuse their families whilst condemning those who are escaping persecution and prejudice, want to become part of our tax paying and civil society.
FUCK ISRAEL
So they are having a limited pause to allow aid to be brought in – Is that before they start shooting children again? Starmer is recaalling the Cabinet – I hope it is not just to whip them into line – Palestine needs to be recognised NOW! he is also having a meeting with the war criminal Trump, let us hope he gets off his knees and stands up to the bully.
Police brutality? So a man walking home from his allotment is reported as having a knife, and the police quite correctly apprehend him – maybe with a little too much force. However rather than examine his story, and the fact that the Niwaki blade was sheathed, they took him to the police station, denied him a solicitor (they claimed one was nat available). He was only released after admiting possession of an offensive weapon and was released with a caution. What happened to common sense? Do people in Manchester regularly walk the streets with a tool belt with gardening items looking for a fight? FM! he even had a trug of produce with him!
Whilst on the subject of police brutality Dale Vince has called for a public inquiry into the “Battle of the Beanfield”. I am not sure a public inquiry is necessary we all know that the police went over the top – police paid out £24000 in damages and it was definitely a political act. 530 new age travellers were heading for Stonehenge and were attacked by the police. having said this I also believe the police have an unenviable job dealing, for the most part, with the dregs of society and the mentally disturbed. It has long been my assertion that the police should be allowed a free meal at any school at lunch time. They should avoid McDonalds and Burger King etc. Sitting down with students for a civilised chat would do wonders for community relations, be good’ish for their health and pockets (dinner would be free). They could be seen, and see, normal people in a relaxed situation. is this what the ‘bobby on the beat’ used to do in the past before they got tooled up in their cars with go faster stripes and lights? Cost nothing: Benefits potentially huge. And if they smell canabis they should ignore it – the strip searching of teenage girls should be treated for what it is -paedophilia !
Climate disasters continue anabated across southern Europe this summer. Huge wildfires are devastating Greece, mainland and islands; and Turkiye. The deputy mayor of Kythhera made an interesting statement which was not noted in the UK Press – he said ‘Everything, from houses, beehives (too) olive trees had been burnt”. In the UK we would mention possessions and tec devices, not wildlife and the ecosystem.
And for those with a surplus of runner beans a recipe.
WONT GET FOOLED AGAIN
and again and again! Immigration is to of the voters concerns. These are not reasoned arguments but the knuckle draggers opinions formed by Farage and his publicity seeking cohort. send them home is the rallying call; especially as they all live at tax payers expence in 5 star hotels with room service and have free handouts of cash to bet with. And the press promotes this garbage as catching headlines. There are not newspapers and advertising to be sold by undermining the populist shite issued. When was the last time an asylum seekers full story was told? How many are from Afghanistan, Iraq or Libya – for which the British governments of the past are culpable of creating a destabilised situation. We are guilty in other areas too – Somalia and other African countries have been undermined by government ignoring bribery and corruption.
What is it about the ignorant, often tattooed, individuals who think that their physique (large and white), gives them the right to act as judge, juror and even executioner of a human being who was not fortunate enough to be born in Western Europe in the 21st century.
Can I ask how many of the protestors in Epping and recently in ballymena and Belfast, have a degree, or any educational qualification? Yes I know this is arrogance on my part, but is a truth, nonetheless. Intelligent people do not generally riot on the streets and attack police and emergency vehicles; intelligent people do not attack hotels and private property with the motif being hatred or jealousy. The pen will always, ultimately be greater than the sword!
And all the while Israel is getting on with genocide and the physical destruction of Gaza. I hope the thick bastards …. oh… I just fucking give up! What is the point in arguing with a turd? I will still smell and alook awful?
Also interesting – the two guys who cut down the tree on/bye Hadrians Wall were pursued by the police who accessed their phone data and internet communications. And I consider myself an environmentalist – but it was only a fucking tree! And yet racist hate mail against public figures, most recently Jess Carter of the Lioness’s seems to have gone quiet? Why? I am sure clever criminals can cover their tracks, but the racist moron? It is unlikely! So take away his phone, computer, login details, and make public their bile.
A REPLY
Labour have very little connection with the left anymore so they can carry on pushing the right wing parties further right until they get into power and well fuck that, so fuck labour and starmers crocodile tears for 50,000 murdered children in Gaza.
Looks like the new party already have more members than labour so hopefully Labour don’t try to split the left vote of the greens and Corbyn/Sultana to let reform in.
I agree with the first paragraph, crocodile tears and all. However i think the writer is being naive if they think that the British Public would vote in a Corbyn/Sultana government. The average British voter is fairly centre on most topics, basically conservtive in finance and traditions, but liberal regarding social trends and life in general. The press (and I include the BBC) will not allow a left wing government – they will persecute every fault, however minor. The best bet for Labour was with Corbyn in the party and a strong left wing element. This isna return to past times. Until there is proportional representation we are stuck with the same old fudge. In some ways Farage is correct – the status quo has let us down for years. Personally I would be happy with a Rayner/Milliband leadership.
Starmer promised much but has lurched/leaped to the right. I so hope I am wrong that his position on Israel is unlikely to yield positive results. If we should declare war (which I fervently hope will never happen) it should be on the state of Israel. Why is Starmer so afraid of being seen to be anti-semite – he should just stand up and tell the world that he fucking htes what Israel is doing and cut off diplomatic relationships with the bastards.
Trump is here, he is treating us like a fucking holiday home! And Starmer is fawning at the gates of the orange twat! Tell him to stop supplying weapons to Israel or his prescence is not welcome. Oh and I would have about a hundred more conditions regarding climate change, International Law and tariffs. International issues are not ours to dictate – he should be reminded of this too!
COULD BE FUN?
South Park creators sign $1.5 billion deal with Paramount and then totally slag them off, and then have a total go at Trump who earlier leant on Paramount to pull a CBS headline show for being anti- his greatness!
America loves litigation so I expect this one to have legs – especially as it may deflect attention from the Epstain files. Trump arrives in Scotland this afternoon and can expect a hostile reaction – if protestors can get close enough!
More killing – this time between Thailand and Cambodia.
But back to Palestine – the police seem to be over zealous in arresting people who they suspect supporting Palestinian Action. What has the Government unleashed here? Two arrests were of 75 and 80 year old women (held under the Terrorism Act – max imprisonment 14 years). These were two concerned citizens who wish to draw attention to the horror that Israel has descended on Gaza. Their homes were broken into by the police and searched for 3 hours by 10 police. I just have a simple question – why? The actions of Israel are egregious in the extreme. Presumably the police are acting under instructions from the Home Secretary and passed on via Chief Constables. When our purported leaders are unable to take action about clear wrongs we are descending into fascism. And under a Labour government to boot!
France has shown bottle of sorts – saying it will recognise the Palestinian state later next month – do it now. Starmer has a meeting with the Paedeophile on Monday – maybe he is waiting until after as he is scared. The Guardian reports on pland by Israeli developopers to remove Palestinians and create an I Israeli beach resort – deja vu? The world must not let this happen.
In Epping the fascists have been having a lovely time – abusing the police both verbally and physically. And it is over “apparently an asylum seeker tried to kiss a 14 year old girl”. Not the worst offence – and I would be sure that every protestor has been guilty of worse.
Corbyn and Sultana new party – I am cusiously welcoming it. The politics is a given. But thinking bigger – will it allow Reform to gain seats, will it underine the Greens? As ever I have not got a fucking clue!
WORDS FAIL
When there are no words left to describe the horror that is Gaza under Israeli punishment – then action is needed. The British Government can probably make no difference, but they should leave nothing untried. As members of the UN Security Council they could bring a motion of condemnation. Recognising Palestine would be a good start. banning all arms deals with Israel and 3rd parties, putting travel bans on any of the toxic Israeli Government leaders would show at least some balls. Starvation of a nation should not happen in the 21st century. And yet Shelagh Foggity at LBC was acting as an apologist for the Israeli Government yesterday. I never want to see a photo of a child, or anyone else who is being starved to death.
I am sure Hamas deserve some of the guilt, but Israel has been spending $billions in bombing Gaza and yet has still not defeated them (this is there claim). They have destroyed hospitals and schools and have killed more hostages than they have liberated. It seems to me that Hamas is the excuse for genocide rather than the reason. Can there ever be a reason for genocide?
there is no other relevant news! But the DMail leads with story of asylum seekers using government cards for gambling – pathetic journalism.
DILEMMA
The trash papers are stuck not knowing what to do. Starmer is doing OK as far as the RWP are concerned. Badenoch is worse than useless and Farage is not trusted. So what can they report? Gaza is too horrific and they live in fear of being called anti-semetic, or anti-Trump. Ukraine is old news. Climate denying is just not popular. Small boat migrants are always a good headline but even here there seems to be sensible progress, and it is old news. So we have front pages occupied by Ozzy Osbourne’s death.
Foggity on LBC was banging on about “what Israel should do” as being a bad thing to say – she thinks Hamas should also be targeted around being responsible. I personally think that day has passed. Israel’s government is out of order and should be treated as a terrorist organisation. Palestine should be recognised by the UK government. Yes, of course the remaining hostages, if still alive, should be released. Israel cannot legitamately dispute the number of civilians killed as they refuse to let foreign journalists into the region.
Climate is another area ignored for want of upsetting the denyers. But the UN has just announced that solar is 41% of the cost of fossil fuels whilst onshore wing is also below 50% of the cost. And I might be wrong here, but in the UK power generation is linked to gas prices, that making green energy appear more expensive. Over the past year in the UK 37.5% has been provided by renewables and 29.8% by gas. Nuclear is 14.3% of the renewable total.
So the government should reintroduce the the supplement for energy produced and submitted to the National Grid by households. Instant injection of capital for energy production with no initial cost to government. Price paid to housholds would fluctuate with demand and supply – so no more expensive than gas. Capital investment return for households should be not be more than 8years and subsidy should be at least 20 years. Similar schemes should be created for community projects like wind generators. Come on – set my ambitions on fire and do it!
