Meanwhile living standards rose hugely and youg people were able to get on the housing ladder with relative ease. It's just a lie put about by globalists like Khan that we need endless mass migration. We don't: it means housing shortages, lower wages for unskilled workers and falling living standards across the board. This country is on the brink of a full scale crisis in terms of education and housing, thanks entirely to mass immigration.As you observe building 11,000 new council houses would hardly bne significant in terms of the housing need. In any case, a large proportion of those houses would soon fall out of circulation as they became used for illegal mass sub-letting and council house purchase (funded by criminals who specialise in that line of work).

They are running cared away from serious debate - choosing to mount their attacks upon TR instead of upon the perpetrators of the horrific crimes. It seems that they, with most of the MSM, wish to brush this unspeakable wave of crime under the carpet. This has become the critical political debate. The 2016 vote for Brexit was in part a demonstration by the electorate of the need to control immigration. Again, this elephant in the room has been ignored both by the TM Government and the BBC. <br /><br />Sadiq Kahn yesterday was promising 11,000 new council houses for London. If deliverable, this is a wholly inadequate gesture to Londoners, who see their population increasing by 100,000 per year - partly if not mainly immigrants.Arthur Trofhttp://otboae.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-16094841897464433722018-10-24T09:39:45.429+01:002018-10-24T09:39:45.429+01:00 This morning‘s Today headline was about the BBC e...

It now emerges if TWT on Radio 4 is to be believed, that the truth is he was from a Sikh background but did not follow the religion strictly until it came to the point he was being investigated, and then he adopted the full Sikh dress and became properly observant.<br /><br /><br />So apologies to Casciani for saying he got that wrong - that was due to less than full reporting by the Examiner. But even so, it was rather odd for Casciani to tweet about the religion of ONE of the gang and not the religion of all the rest. What exactly was the point he was trying to make? <br /><br />And I don't resile from the point I made about the <br />fact he shared a platform with people who support the introduction of Sharia law in the UK and the <br />pulping of the Satanic Verses.

There are a few versions on YouTube. Owen Benjamin is an American 'conservative' stand-up comedian and musician. I haven't seen him on the BBC.<br /><br />A search 'BBC Owen Benjamin' brings up plenty of Benjamin Britten links, but none for Owen Benjamin. As he isn't on the BBC radar, it's understandable that Dominic Casciani wasn't aware of him or this song. How would he be? Err.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-459... The BBC report:<br /><br />https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-45951152<br /><br />has undergone several changes as the reporters including Dominic Casciani try to come to terms with an important story as the day went on. First, the downplaying of numbers of TR supporters - what a joke this is when at the weekend the BBC were exaggerating numbers for the People’s Vote march.<br /><br />Secondly, Cascani reported the crown as singing Leonard Cohen’s Hallelujah and at this to begin with he seemed surprised. Later he qualified his report: ' when they began singing "How they Rule Ya" to the tune of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah'. The BBC didn’t see the irony in the hijacking of a Cohen song, making it into a protest song, when Cohen is held up as one of the 1960s and 1970s elder statesmen - wheeled out - to Glastonbury supposedly in support of what used to be the rebellious free-thinking radicals, the same people that now have become the mainstream Elite Leftist .<br /><br />Thirdly, the reasons for the case being referred up was (as I understand the situation) because of the strength of TR’s witness statement. It’s there on line for us to read. <br /><br />On the Politics Show, Jo Coburn floundered when the consensus of opinion was that the press and MSM including the BBC had failed in their duty to report on and expose the failings of police local authorities and other agencies to protect the victims of Huddersfield, Rochdale etc etc. By burying the story after only a few hours, the BBC have attracted blame for their erroneous and incomplete reporting. <br /><br />Try as she might to drum up some endorsement of the BBC's position, by condemnation of TR as a) undermining the case against the perpetrators, and b) being a racist neo-nazi thug surrounded as he went to court by EDL stalwarts, she couldn’t raise the anti TR rhetoric above bog-standard simmer.<br /><br />I think today might be the day when TR’s claim that his case is all about ‘who I am’ and not of ‘what I’ve done’ and his claim that the BBC are stirring up hatred towards him eventually ring true.Arthur Trofhttp://otboae.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-63108247634438759652018-10-23T21:16:59.536+01:002018-10-23T21:16:59.536+01:00Dominic Casciani - assigned to cover the Tommy Rob...Dominic Casciani - assigned to cover the Tommy Robinson case, and put the boot in on behalf of the BBC - was ill advised to try and argue the leader of the Huddersfield grooming gang was from a Sikh background...and there are about 300 people so far who have tweeted him to explain exactly why. <br /><br />https://twitter.com/BBCDomC/status/1053319897697136640<br /><br />But Dominic has obviously been learning from Feedback and Newswatch and offers no apologies for his misdirection of the public. <br /><br />On his Twitter account Dominic presents himself as a simple reporter...but he's not just that - he's also an activist engaging in matters of intense public debate and controversy, notably a conference on Muslim-Government relations where he shared a platform with Sharia promoters like Dr Bari of the MCB who has stated explicitly he wants all copies of Rushdie's Satanic Verses to be pulped...but of course you'll never hear Casciani describe pro-Sharia Bari as an "extremist", "identitarian" or "Far Right". <br /><br />https://www.soas.ac.uk/politics/events/muslimgovtconf/programme/<br /><br />https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1568881/Dr-Bari-Government-stoking-Muslim-tension.html<br /><br />BBC - Bollox, Beneath Contempt<br />Monkey Brainsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3272054900018746845.post-27536381337571643252018-10-23T20:48:36.842+01:002018-10-23T20:48:36.842+01:00For once the BBC are talking about something they ...For once the BBC are talking about something they have experience of: herding sheep.
