Female genital mutilation cases more than double in a year in UK per The Guardian

The Guardian manage to report https://www.theguardian.com/society/2018/nov/30/female-genital-mutilation-cases-more-than-double-in-a-year-in-UK on the rise in FGM in the UK.

'The number of girls in England who have experienced or are believed to be at risk of female genital mutilation (FGM) has more than doubled in a year, according to assessments by council social workers.

Analysis of government figures shows that FGM featured in 1,960 social work assessments in 2017-18 – more than twice the 970 cases reported in the previous year.

The figures were described as alarming by those working in the field, who said the increase was due mainly to better detection by social workers. Experts said the real incidence of FGM is likely to be far higher, however, as it remains a largely hidden crime.

The analysis, by the Local Government Association, also reveals that abuse of children linked to faith or belief – including witchcraft and spirit possession – has gone up by 12%.'

Whilst The Guardian can't mention Islam, the BBC don't seem to have reported this terrifying rise in FGM at all.

Man who dismissed Labour antisemitism allegations gets top role in dealing with it per The Jewish Chronicle

Another day, another Labour Party antisemitic problem. 

'A man who said Labour members alleging antisemitism within the party should be suspended, has been elected to Labour's top disciplinary body dealing, with cases that included alleged antisemitism.

Stephen Marks, a member of the fringe, pro-Corbyn Jewish Voice for Labour group, was one of six candidates on a left-wing slate, agreed by Momentum and Campaign for Labour Party Democracy (CLPD), to have won places on Labour's national constitutional committee (NCC).

The NCC deals with disciplinary cases involving Labour members.

Momentum had confirmed it would support Mr Marks as a candidate – despite earlier claims that its founder Jon Lansman would block the endorsement of the JVL activist.'

Experts: Parliament Can't Force A Second Referendum per Guido Fawkes

This https://order-order.com/2018/11/27/experts-parliament-cant-force-second-referendum/ from Guido Fawkes misses, maybe deliberately, the obvious:

'Constitutional experts Vernon Bogdanor and Lord Kerslake both agree that there is no way for Parliament to force a second referendum without a cooperative executive.

Professor Bogdanor confirms that as the Withdrawal Agreement is a treaty, Parliament can either ratify it or not. "A referendum amendment would have no effect on its own, to have a second referendum you need legislation which in 2015 took seven months to get through Parliament."

Former Head of the Civil Service Lord Kerslake agrees, saying "there has to be, as Vernon says, legislation… the way forward has to come with the involvement and the agreement of Government."

The only scenarios that could happen are those that Number 10 would be willing to entertain…'

Theresa Remainer and Quisling May would be very happy to have a second referendum, so long as the Remoaners win it. To that end, if you think that the political class and the BBC were biased during the run up to the 2016 election, you ain't seen nothing yet! 

Toddler among nine rescued from dinghy off Dover coast per BBC News

The BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-46356204 that:

'An 18-month-old child is among nine people rescued from a dinghy in the English Channel, the BBC understands.

A lifeboat was called at about 04:30 GMT after the 3m-long vessel was spotted by a fishing crew off Dover.

A Border Force boat picked up the suspected migrants and brought them to Dover at about 05:30 where they were handed over to immigration officials.

Some 123 people have reached the Kent coast so far this month, most claiming to be Iranian.'

Some might say that the ongoing invasion is picking up speed.

So long as the Remoaners win?

"Both the Remain campaign, and the Leave champai… campaign should jointly agree that this vote is final, doesn't matter how marginal it is, it's final. Once this is resolved then that's it for a generation."

So sayeth Tony Blair. 

Isn't that what was happened in 2016? I thought plenty of people said that this was the decisive, once in a generation vote. 

Trust me, any vote will only be final if the Remoaners win, otherwise there will be another referendum, and another, and another. 

In rediscovered telegram, Himmler offers Jerusalem's mufti help against 'Jewish intruders' per The Times of Israel

Naziism linked to Arab Muslims, the BBC will run a mile from this historical discovery. 

'A telegram from Heinrich Himmler to the grand mufti of Jerusalem has been found in the archives of Israel's National Library.

Believed to have been sent in 1943, it contains a promise by Hitler's deputy to Haj Amin al-Husseini that the German Reich will stand behind the Arabs of Palestine and support their struggle against "Jewish intruders."

Published on the library website on Wednesday, the telegraph notes that the struggle against world Jewry has been a principle of the German National Socialists from the start, and that the regime has always followed "with particular sympathy," the struggle of "freedom-loving Arabs," especially those in Palestine battling the Jews.

"The joint recognition of the enemy and the struggle together against it are what build the solid basis between the National Socialists of Greater Germany and freedom-loving Muslims of the world," Himmler wrote.'

Brexit: May gives way over Gibraltar after Spain's 'veto' threat per The Guardian

'"After the United Kingdom leaves the union, Gibraltar will not be included in the territorial scope of the agreements to be concluded between the union and the United Kingdom," the EU will say.'

Is calling this treason over the top? 

Quisling May looks as though she's struck again. I am disgusted.

Eight more 'migrants' found in dinghy off Kent coast per BBC News

This BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-46320413 doesn't include the word 'invasion'.

Here's the BBC's list of the 'invaders':

'23 November

22 November

Thirteen men and one woman were intercepted in two dinghies off the coast of Dover

Little evidence 20mph speed limit reduces casualties, says report

This Guardian report https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/nov/23/little-evidence-20mph-speed-limit-cuts-casualties-says-uk-report says it all when you look at the first and last sentence:

'There is insufficient evidence that a 20mph speed limit has led to a significant reduction in the number of crashes and casualties in UK residential areas, a government-commissioned study has found.

... 

Joshua Harris, the director of campaigns at the road safety charity Brake, said: "Breaking the speed limit is breaking the law and those who do so should be punished. We must make a success of 20mph limits, but to do so we need more enforcement, which is delivered consistently across the country."'

In other works, it doesn't matter if the 20mph limits make a difference so long as drivers are punished.

France's Macron speaks about an EU Army but the BBC News seem to have forgotten the sneering Nick Clegg when attacking any prospect of such a development

This BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-46254393 includes:

'France's President Emmanuel Macron has called for closer ties between his country and Germany, saying Europe "has the obligation not to let the world slip into chaos".

... 

He also wants Germany's backing for a European Army, which he has said would reduce the bloc's dependence on the US... '

Will the EU fanatics at the BBC question Nick Clegg about his calling the idea of an EU Army' a dangerous fantasy'? 

You can watch Nick Clegg here 

Many might think that the dangerous fantasy wasn't being expressed by Nigel Farage but by Nick Clegg. 

Come on, someone ask Nick Clegg about his comments from 2016.




Suspected migrants found on rocks at Folkestone per BBC News

This BBC report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-46253019 uses the word 'migrants' but not with the preceding qualifier 'illegal' or the possible alternative word 'invader'.

As for the word 'suspected'? 

Why wasn't this headline at the time, why isn't it headline news now?

This piece from the excellent Craig http://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.com/2018/11/had-you-heard-of-this.html should be a must read for every politician, journalist and citizen of the UK.

Here's the key part 

'Nazir Afzal:..." back in 2008 the Home Office sent a circular to all police forces in the country saying "as far as these young girls who are being exploited in towns and cities, we believe that they've made an informed choice about their sexual behaviour and, therefore, it's not for you police officers to get involved in". That's the landscape coming from the top down in 2008. Rest assured, all agencies are going to listen to it. It only changed because of the work we did and the work the Times newspaper did in 2010-11. The fact that we were able to bring the prosecution in Rochdale led to this investigation in West Yorkshire opening...it  only opened in 2013. And the series of prosecutions that have followed indicate to me that the agencies are getting it right now but the reality, of course, is that we've lost a generation of young girls who have been left behind and abused."

So if Mr Afzal, who knows as much about this as anyone, is correct, then why hasn't this been picked up on by mainstream journalists? Why didn't this PM interview spark a nationwide clamour to investigate that 2008 Home Office circular, and the behaviour of the Home Office under Gordon Brown's government? Surely, if, as Mr Afzal alleges, it played a part in keeping the grooming gangs operating with impunity for a few years more then it's a massive scandal, isn't it?'

Seems like a scandal to me but the Labour Party's propaganda arm, the BBC, isn't going to in any way ask awkward questions to the Labour Party or indeed of any parts of the Muslim community. 

Florida mid-terms: Democrat Andrew Gillum concedes to Ron DeSantis per BBC News

The BBC end this report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-46250683 with:

'The recount has been controversial. Mr Trump and Republicans have claimed voter fraud without offering any evidence.

Mr Trump had also said there was "a lot of dishonesty" over contested votes. Again, he offered no evidence.'

Have the BBC really seen or heard of no evidence of voter fraud? Maybe take a look...

Is the BBC biased?: Emily Maitlis's question about democracy

Craig at Isthebbcbiased.blogspot.co.uk has a great spot http://isthebbcbiased.blogspot.com/2018/11/emily-maitliss-question-about-democracy.html from the BBC's Emily Maitlis:

'I'm going to say something really unpopular, which is that we keep on talking about, you know, the problem with democracy and the problem with the deficit, but at what point you to say, actually, democracy is not as important as the future economy and stability and prosperity of the country right now?'

Words fail me but I'm not really that shocked by the words of a BBCoid.

Rotherham child sexual abuse: Six men jailed per BBC News

The BBC reluctantly report https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-46222421 that

'Six men have been jailed for sexually exploiting young girls in Rotherham who were gang-raped and abused by them.

The men subjected the five girls to "degrading and violent" acts using drink, drugs and the "excitement of friendship" to lure them in.

One girl told a trial how she had sex with "at least 100 Asian men" by the time she was 16, while another described being passed around the gang.

They were sentenced to between 10 and 23 years at Sheffield Crown Court.

The men, who are all of British Pakistani heritage, targeted and groomed the girls over seven years.

The court heard they "destroyed" them and that their childhood had been taken from them.'

No mention of what motivated these men, that would be verboten.
