Serial *** offender, fraudster and convicted felon. Would you buy a used car from this clown?

Trump Derangement Syndrome mon ami, the very fact that he gets out of bed in a morning triggers a storm of criticism from Lefty journos, they can't help themselves, it's an illness, no known cure.

There is a deep paranoia, loathing and visceral hatred of Donald Trump in the Media, Academia, the Bureaucracy, the NGOs, the Charity sector, the Church and among the elite, that clouds their empiricism, they cannot be dis-interested, once you step back and accept the above, which is no more than an explanation of TDS, you begin to realise that 90% of what you read about Trump is worthless.

I look at my local town centre. How it has changed since I moved here 35 years ago. We had 5 Banks and Building Societies then to serve the community. They have all closed their branches. Sure most people bank online these days but we don’t even have a banking hub in their place. If you actually need to go into a bank you will need to go to Bolton or Bury or even Manchester. Our shopping centre consists in large part (apart from a Lidl and an Asda) of a multitude of barbers, tanning salons, nail bars and vape shops. I cannot believe such a mixture of shops many ostensibly competing for the same business can be commercially viable so what real underlying trade is going on? Our civic suite was demolished. Pubs have closed in droves to be turned into HMOs. Serco are writing to private landlords asking them to sign over their properties for the next five years. We are witness to communities and the buildings, institutions and meeting places that bound them together being systematically destroyed. And if this wasn’t enough the Mayor and Labour councils plan to build over greenbelt land that will then be lost forever for future generations. From my perspective we are in a country that is out of control with a succession of Governments that have proved unable and in some circumstances unwilling to defend our communities. If it was just incompetence it would be bad enough but it has been compounded with outright lying. It is no wonder that people are ditching the Conservative and Labour parties and will continue to do so as long as they are ignored, marginalised and sneeringly written off as merely populist or worse.

We are not being heard Sir Outwood, the "We know best woke brigade" no longer listen to the electorate and that must change.

Spot on Sir Outwood.

Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of angry men. Clearly the answer is no as far as Westminster goes but I don’t particularly hold out any great prospects for Nigel and his crew either. As you pointed out in another post where are the good politicians when you need them and the answer is conspicuously absent. Change however must surely come. The establishment who had dragged us further and further into the EU without consulting anyone got the shock of their lives with the Brexit vote. imo Britons want fair trade and fair travel with Europe. Co-operation but not political union. We are,when all is said and done, an independent island nation and not a piece of Continental Europe. The Tories suffered an electoral catastrophe in 2024 and I am sure Starmer fears the same fate will befall Labour unless he starts to exert control over events and he surely has not done that so far.

You are the voice of reason Sir Outwood. I salute you Sir Outwood.

"There was widespread celebration among delighted journalists and progressives yesterday after a car ploughed into a crowd of people, with 47 people injured, two seriously, after it emerged that the driver was a white British male. Police and mainstream journalists were spotted high fiving as they realised that the driver wasn’t a brown skinned Muslim terrorist.The event happened at a parade celebrating Liverpool FC’s Premiership football title, on Water Street in Liverpool City Centre. A black Ford Galaxy car was reported travelling at high speed before hitting the crowd. Police are not treating it as a terrorist incident as it seems the driver lost control of the vehicle. That however was not the focus of reporting.

“It was such a wonderful day for us, it really was. We have been waiting and hoping for an event like this for a long time. As soon as I heard what had happened, I knew what we had to do. Front page, and the words WHITE BRITISH as prominently as possible in the headline. It was so obvious.” An ecstatic Jeremy Felch, Editor of The Scum, explained to us. Julia Louise Hot-Monocle, roving reporter for The Daily Slither, nodded enthusiastically, adding “Everyone I know is just so happy. Obviously it would have been much better if he was actually a terrorist, but the fact that the driver was white and British was exactly what we needed. I’ve already had four articles accepted talking about the percentage of dangerous driving that comes from white people, and I’ve got an interview lined up with Lewis Hamilton about why only black people should be allowed to drive. It’s just so thrilling to be part of a moment like this. As the fact that the driver was WHITE and BRITISH dominated the early edition headlines, social media was quick to follow the lead established by the legacy media outlets. Several reporters said that was one of the most exciting elements of the day. Often left behind the curve on fast breaking news and increasingly irrelevant in the age of instant social commentary, reporters were delighted to find that they were once again shaping the narrative.

“It was like the good old days really when we got to determine who won elections without any other fraud involved. It’s been terrible for us in recent years. We get paid still, but we have professional pride too and we have noticed how many people no longer believe us on anything and look elsewhere for their reporting. It hurts. We work very hard on our lies, and we want them to be appreciated. The beauty of a white driver ploughing into a crowd is that we could say something true that does the sane job we always do, you know, being massively racist to white people and trying to totally crush the spirit of the majority of the population. Well, here, we had a horrible event that we could immediately put to that purpose. You can’t imagine the relief.” Babatunde Mohammed X, of The Gay Gazan Gazette, added. The celebrations in print media were shared by TV stations and radio outlets who all receive millions of pounds of funding from people who hate whiteness. Veteran political talk show host Matthew Rimming, star of ITV’s long running The Morning Dump, took up the story and described to us the scenes: “It was absolute carnage. There were bodies everywhere, people flung side to side, shattered and broken, just complete chaos….no, no, not at the crash, I’m talking about the party. ITV, Channel Four, the BBC, Reuters, all the print dailies, we were all there. We got our pieces out, all with that WHITE BRITISH bit as prominent as possible, and then it was just an orgy, you know, an outpouring of relief and gratification. These have been dark days for us. We never describe killers or terrorists anymore. We have even largely stopped describing rent boys and *** scandals. We just have this same old script we trot out all the time, not talking about anything real, and basically just filling the pages with opinion pieces from Gender Studies graduates. We use AI for most of it, or Antifa send us a 14 year old lesbian with a nose ring and she does it. It’s all Eddie Izzard looks stunning in a dress, and eat bugs, and isn’t it great now that you can be put in prison for any non Regime opinion. I’ve published It’s Time to Talk About White Racism 67 times and nobody has noticed it’s the same article….all the time we are basically only allowed to say Far Right and not much else….its not just about being shills and ****bags, you know….you can’t understand how great it felt to include a description of the driver. I felt like I was one of those old time journos in a black and white movie, the ones who actually said something. ”Talking to Matthew’s colleagues it was clear thar his perspective was one shared by most of his profession, although many were too drunk or high to confirm that. We strolled between the snoring half naked journalists in the aftermath of the party. The Filipino cleaners will have a lot of work to do, but the shy smiles and bleary eyed greetings spoke of a profession finally getting to do what they love best. Not just purely theoretical white hating articles, but white hating articles with a nugget of fact at the core of them, like a pound coin wrapped in a turd. That’s what they want to do. That’s what their professional pride requires.And that’s what they delivered.

The former prime minister of Israel Ehud Olmert has said Israel is committing war crimes in Gaza, and that “thousands of innocent Palestinians are being killed, as well as many Israeli soldiers”.

Olmert, who was the 12th prime minister of Israel from 2006 to 2009, wrote in an opinion piece for the Israeli newspaper and website Haaretz that “the government of Israel is currently waging a war without purpose, without goals or clear planning and with no chances of success”.

He added: “Never since its establishment has the state of Israel waged such a war … The criminal gang headed by Benjamin Netanyahu has set a precedent without equal in Israel’s history in this area, too.

The former Israeli PM and former member of Likud, the same party as Netanyahu, wrote that the “pointless victims among the Palestinian population” were reaching “monstrous proportions” in recent weeks.

“Recent operations in Gaza have nothing to do with legitimate war goals,” he wrote. “This is now a private political war. Its immediate result is the transformation of Gaza into a humanitarian disaster area.”

Olmert said he had often asserted that Israel was not committing war crimes in Gaza and claimed with conviction that “in no case did a government official give orders to hit Gazan civilians indiscriminately”.

However, in recent weeks, “I’ve been no longer able to do so,” he said. “What we are doing in Gaza now is a war of devastation: indiscriminate, limitless, cruel and criminal killing of civilians. It’s the result of government policy – knowingly, evilly, maliciously, irresponsibly dictated.”

It's pretty useless trying to argue with him but the genocide deniers and facilitators will obviously disagree.

After the lies about Mr Netanyahu's parents you are now spreading lies about Menachem Begin. The picture has been photoshopped, the original is easily found on't interweb and there is no Star of David on Mr Begins lapel. Wikiquote refers to the quote you mis-attribute to him thus, 'This is not an accurate quote. There is no proof this has ever been said.'.

I'm disappointed, you have turned into a very sad, little man Mr Bedlington Terrier.

Two State solution my arse..."Israel said Thursday it would establish 22 Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank, including the legalization of outposts already built without government authorization.

Israel captured the West Bank, along with the Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem, in the 1967 Mideast war and the Palestinians want all three territories for their future state. Most of the international community views settlements as illegal and an obstacle to resolving the decades-old conflict."

"The Incident on March 23rd, in Which Terrorists Abusing Medical Vehicles Were Eliminated By IDF Troops"

1.⁠ ⁠On Sunday (23.3), IDF troops operating in southern Gaza opened fire toward Hamas vehicles and eliminated several Hamas terrorists.

A few minutes afterward, additional vehicles advanced suspiciously toward the troops. An initial inquiry indicates that the vehicles were moving without prior coordination, and without headlights or emergency signals.

The troops responded by firing toward the suspicious vehicles, eliminating a number of Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists.

After an initial inquiry, it was determined that some of the suspicious vehicles that were moving towards the troops were ambulances and fire trucks.

The IDF condemns the repeated use of civilian infrastructure by the terrorist organizations in the Gaza Strip, including the use of medical facilities and ambulances for terrorist purposes."
