"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

Stop The Boats The latest three-word mantra from a party that calculates the general public can't absorb slogans that are more than three words long.

"Government officials have conceded that solving inactivity in the country’s workforce may not be enough to tackle the number of job vacancies in Britain and changes to immigration will also be required, the Financial Times reported. Sources told the paper the construction will be one of the first identified as a key sector on the Government’s “shortage occupation list” with the migration advisory committee (MAC) recommending bricklayers, carpenters and plasterers for inclusion."

"Referring back to the post of SAX at 1 am today. Yesterday I was working indoors and the radio was on in the background tuned in to BBC radio 4. A woman was talking who long ago came out as a lesbian. She was saying how in the intervening years she has been able to enjoy life and how society has changed over time such that people like her are comfortable. However she sees a problem that looks like a difficult one to solve for lesbian women. She has over the years regularly attended functions that are exclusively for lesbians but now they are being bedevilled by trans people, who are legally seen as women, insisting on attending much to the frustration and ire of the cis gender people."

SurfaceAgentX2Zero 1:00 Fri Mar 10 Facts and logic aren't going to win this argument.

"Remember how the Tories for 50+ years kept telling you their hands were tied, blaming human rights and the EU for their refusal to do a fucking single thing to curtail the deliberate displacement of the natives of Europe. Then covAIDs came along and every Western leader ripped up the previously untouchable humans rights laws, while keeping all its own law abiding citizens locked down and limited their freedom of movement... So on the one hand they can put a stop to it all, limiting all freedom of movement of entire nations in an instant, yet when the public demands it, they can do nothing. Keep voting Tory/Labour, maybe they'll sort it out in a few more election cycles. Seems to me that slavery really is a choice..."

", 2:08 Fri Mar 10 Yep It is a deflection exercise. The Conservatives has been in power for 13 years and none of the problems are their fault because the EU, Putin, Covid, small boats, the Lefty blob etc etc. Confecting moral panic is all they have left as they have nothing positive left to sell."

Fifth Column 12:53 Fri Mar 10 Its more simple than that: They're allowing the boat people in because they want to and whenever they posture about wanting to stop it they are lying.

Compared to when I was younger there is no far left i dont recognise woke as anything other than bourgeoisie bollocks Neither socialism or capitalism work in the sense of keeping the majority of people content for long periods if time

"Yeah, it's actually the left that are being attacked and getting the blame for all the worlds failings, and the far right, white privileged, misogynistic, homophobic, racists gammons that don't believe in democracy and equality are getting away with it."

Surely nobody worries about being called a leftie it’s more that the government ( and the gullible ) blame the left every time they are thwarted.

Fifth Column 12:53 Fri Mar 10 A dog whistle STB like MAGA

Leavemyarcelona Do you still like the specials and hate lefties? I don’t take you seriously you’re a comedian and you really shouldn’t be talking about things you don’t understand

"Fifth Column 12:53 Fri Mar 10 Sorry, mate, but I don't know why you've addressed that to me. I've studiously avoided getting drawn into the specifics of the Braverman/Sunak thing because FO is using it as a big fat straw man. My point remains that calling a left leaning lawyer a 'leftie lawyer' is not really very pejorative, is it? As for being thwarted by them, the government has no excuse any more. Parliament has recently been ruled sovereign, so it can pass any legislation it wants if it's correctly worded. Of course, the ruling by the Supreme Court (the law) that Parliament is sovereign was arrant nonsense. If the Supreme Court had the power to make that decision then clearly it (the law), not Parliament, is sovereign. In fact, the law has always been sovereign in modern times, but it took a moron like Cameron to create a Supreme Court and inadvertently prove it."

"5th Decent post. If the UK established legal routes and/or worked with the French to build a processing centre in France, I think the UK would be better placed to refuse to process those arriving on boats. But as you say, its about the rhetoric rather than the solution."

Agree re your last paragraph fifth

"The simplest way to satisfy the LGBTQ+ lot would be to scrap any mention on forms of sex or gender. It could be replaced with the simple and binary question: 'Do you have a Y chromosome? - Yes or no' That would surely satisfy everybody. It would, wouldn't it? Surely..."

"5th is correct. This situation does not need more legislation, it needs less. We just need to tear up the idiotic UN migration pact that Theresa May signed up to and for the UK to leave the ECHR and the UNHCR and remove all legislation derived from these insidious globalist bodies."

"Surf They aren't being thwarted by 'leftie lawyers'. They're being thwarted by their own incompetence and by the law itself. If I hit someone around the head with an iron bar, I won't then blame a left wing/right wing prosecution lawyer for me getting sent down. It's my own fault because I broke the law. ""Thwarted by the law/lawyers"" would make it sound like a big conspiracy. It's not. If what they were doing was lawful then leftie lawyers or not, it couldn't be stopped. On this occasion it appears that the legislation itself has come with a legal health warning to MPs that it may be deemed unlawful. So, they probably have no actually belief that the law will be implemented, they know it will be challenged in court and they'll lose. Then they'll blame leftie lawyers. And people believe it. PS - I don't think people should be allowed in once they've come over on boats. But this policy isn't a solution. It's political posturing to win votes."

I think I will print out the posts between Surf and Fo and the use them to help me get to sleep at night. Beats Zopiclone.
