Lady Grinning Soul, Kooks and Ashes To Ashes are also way up there.<br />It`s the BBC`s endless efforts to give us the one angle-liberal and faux-rebellious...yet his Fascist role of 1976 gets written out...although much more a danger now that it was back then.chrishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04198777332934873417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-82988373017197212162016-01-11T19:10:18.183+00:002016-01-11T19:10:18.183+00:00I bet she's never fumed about that in her life...I bet she's never fumed about that in her life.Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08741318067991857821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-47093497073101025882016-01-11T18:39:23.998+00:002016-01-11T18:39:23.998+00:00"The Sky reporter, Hind Hassan, seemed almost..."The Sky reporter, Hind Hassan, seemed almost angry.

Curiously, she's had NOTHING to say on Twitter about events in Cologne and the similar attacks on women in other European cities.

It was as bad as anything on the BBC.<br /><br />The Sky reporter, Hind Hassan, seemed almost angry. Her focus was on how "vague" and "problematic" the statement from the German official was about it being nearly all migrants from "North Africa and the Arab World". The Arab World contains 22 countries she fumed. And there's been an attack on some Pakistanis, and Pakistanis aren't Arabs. <br /><br />She seemed far too personally agitated by what she was having to report.

Doesn't fit the narrative - which of course is all about trans, shaking off suburbia and being cosmopolitan, it would seem. <br /><br />No doubt the MSM news editor were grateful for this manna from heaven but the "damage" to the MSM narrative has already been done. Cologne won't be forgotten anymore than 9-11 has been (despite studious avoidance of the topic in the MSM).

However, he hasn't done anything remarkable in decades - so his death is not a loss in the way the early deaths of people like say Jimi Hendrix or Buddy Holly were. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
