A secret image of anonymous ‘sources’ …
Our esteemed fearmongers haven’t quite decided yet about what we must be scared of this week. Some papers headlined the ‘petrol bomb attack on a migrant centre’, others go with speculation that Sunak may still go to yon COP27 jamboree in Egypt because Johnson allegedly decided he’ll go. Here’s the compilation of this morning’s print editions.
I wonder what goes on in the minds of MSM editors who treat this event as a sort of one-upmanship, or as something they have the power to coerce the PM to attend because ‘it’s important’. And then they can wail about a u-turning PM.
Apparently they still believe that pursuing Johnson’s fatal Net Zero policy is more important than trying to get to grips with the economy, an economy damaged not least by yon Net Zero policies. And it’s just such a juicy occasion to stir up more of yon brown stuff.! Just look at this quote from the report in The Times:
“Rishi Sunak is reconsidering his decision to miss the Cop27 climate conference after Boris Johnson indicated he could attend in person and King Charles announced a reception for environmentalists at Buckingham Palace. […] Sunak is said to be supportive of the former prime minister’s plans to go ahead with his own trip as part of Britain’s diplomatic effort to limit the rise in global temperatures to 1.5C despite alarm in Downing Street at a rival British presence on the world stage. “Boris is a former prime minister and Rishi is supportive of anyone who wants to make the case for tackling climate change,” a No 10 source said.” (link, paywalled)
You have to applaud the reporters for getting in that 1.5C ‘rise in global temperatures’! It’s now in The Times, so it must be a true fact. Still, there’s a nod to Sunak trying to deal with the economy, with a backhanded ‘compliment’:
“Sunak is still prioritising his preparations for the autumn statement on November 17 after citing the need to tackle the domestic economic crisis for his decision to remain in the UK. But there is an outside chance that the prime minister will make a fleeting appearance at the talks in Egypt if progress is made on key tax and spend decisions, The Times understands. President Biden and President Macron are among the leaders who are expected to attend the conference, which opens in Sharm-el-Sheikh on Sunday.” (link, paywalled)
Sunak must be some sort of slouch, ‘still prioritising’ yon statement! Hasn’t he got his Chancellor to do this for him? BJ didn’t need to ‘prioritise’ anything except his PR photo ops! Oh – and of course Sunak must go because Biden and Macron ‘are expected’ … Puerile is too kind description for The Times editors, bent on forcing the PM to dance to their music.
Then there’s our Sacred Cow. The Mirror’s front page screams that the NHS is facing its worst winter ‘on record’, with a ‘twindemic’ of flu and covid. Go here for the Mirror’s ‘exclusive’ NHS report. Never mind that it’s not winter yet and never mind that the autumn so far has been amazingly mild … But this outcry is necessary because NHS workers are being balloted for strike action. Moreover, a ‘third of public sector workers [are] ready to resign’ shouts The Times:
“One in three key workers are on the brink of quitting their jobs in a “mass exodus” that would cause public services to crumble, unions have warned. The Trades Union Congress said about 1.8 million public sector workers such as police officers, teachers, nurses and care staff have already taken steps to leave their profession or are actively considering it.They warned this would exacerbate huge vacancy rates and add to the strain on the public sector, including in the NHS, where there are 132,000 job vacancies.” (link, paywalled)
Unsurprisingly, these numbers come from a YouGov poll ‘for the trade unions’. Unsurprisingly, it’s all about ‘low pay’ and about ‘not being valued’. Is this a hint that working conditions might not be ideal? For example, all that box-ticking and paperwork needed to keep the backroom staff, i.e. management and admin, happy? They don’t seem to suffer from low pay.
One wonders if yon reporters would rather the economy go down the drain because Sunak must attend COP27 rather than ‘prioritise’ the economy, pay rises for NHS staff included. Here’s another indication that the establishment is secretly happy for the Net Zero acolytes and their shock troops, glueing themselves onto roads and art works. Al Beeb reported yesterday that
“The Met has urged the public not to “directly intervene” with Just Stop Oil demonstrators. Assistant Commissioner Matt Twist said people should “call us, and we will deal” with the climate change group. He spoke after angry motorists removed demonstrators from blocked roads in central London on Saturday.” (link)
Strange, isn’t it, that the Trade Unions and NHS workers are unconcerned about being prevented to get to work, never mind ambulances not being able to get to hospitals in time. It seems they’d rather strike for more pay while Sunak is made to go to COP27 and spend more of our money – money which the kind BoE will print.
Perhaps that’s why the Westminster MSM haven’t accused Ms Braverman of not controlling the Police, ordering them to deal with yon street-gluers. The Police Forces come under the Home Office, after all, but if Net Zero is the main goal then the police must of course not be given ‘guidance’ to stop their softly-softly approach in regard to all those climate change fanatics! ‘Migrants’ are much better to beat her up with.
The DM has two articles this morning, supporting my thesis that the campaign against Ms Braverman is being manufactured. There’s the report that Michael Gove told yesterday’s BBC Sunday talking shop that “Michael Gove fears Suella Braverman is coming under fire because of her push to reform the Home Office ” (link). That looks like a repeat of the early days of Ms Patel’s Home Office ‘saga’. The DM Comment goes a step further:
“There is rich irony in the fact that Home Secretary Suella Braverman stands accused by the Whitehall Blob and others of being a serial leaker of sensitive information. For if the broadcast media and Sunday papers are to be believed, Home Officeofficials, advisers, researchers and sundry other foes have been queuing up to leak confidential material about her. And what a vicious lot they are. Less than a week since she was restored to the job by Rishi Sunak, these malign voices – most of them courageously anonymous of course – are trying to get her out.” (link)
Well I nevah! Pointing out that Whitehall leakers leak in order to get rid of someone aiming to change their cushy working practices? Whatever next! Perhaps they better all quit their jobs, like other ‘public sector workers’ are said to think about?
I leave you with a sad little report which shows that academic ‘cancel culture’ is indeed destroying our universities. It’s now come to this:
“Students at the University of Cambridge will be given free-speech training in an effort to tackle so-called “cancel culture” against guest speakers. The sessions by two academics will aim to teach undergraduates to tolerate views that they disagree with and could be rolled out to more universities if successful.” (link, paywalled)
I think that professors, tutors and certain vice chancellors ought to attend such training as a matter of priority. It would also be helpful if chief editors in the MSM were made to attend. After all, their pernicious ‘cancel culture’ during the covid years and in regard to ‘climate change’ meant that ‘sources’ can spew poison while other voices were and are being silenced.
And so, as we glide from Autumn towards Winter, let’s keep watch on how we’re being manipulated by the Westminster Cabal, aiming to make the PM dance to their Net Zero tunes, to please ‘the PM over the waters’ whom they’d love to see back in No 10, wifey included. Have a good day …
Why is Sir Roger Gale getting involved in the Manston Immigration Centre nonsense by stating that the conditions up not up to standard. What does he want, the centre to be closed and those illegal migrants dispersed around the United Kingdon without first being photographed, fingerprinted and DNA’d etc. Why don’t MP’s like him concern themselves about the plight of the many law abiding citizens in their own constituencies. The conditions in this immigration centre are going to be infinitely much better than the conditions in the camps these migrants stayed in before jumping into a rubber dinghy and coming to this country illegally. We are in desperate need of an alternative right of centre party to vote for, so we can banish the likes of Roger Gale from the House of Commons on a permanent basis. The thoroughly unconservative Conservative Party are really starting to pee me off with their ineptitude.
Me too Colin. Just been listening to Sir Roger Gale whining that conditions at Manston are intolerable for the dinghy tossers …. “they need hotels or council housing”. I think it’s more intolerable that an MP thinks more about these freeloaders than our own homeless on the streets. Why aren’t THEY in Hotels?
I know this is outside the normal range here, but in the realm of fake news and manipulation it is right up there, in my opinion.
‘Baseless’ is the new media go to word. It avoids the need to analyse what is being alleged or to give counter evidence. Baseless, so nothing there, so we won’t even look.
Berlusconi pointed out some truths about Ukraine and Russia counter to the narrative, and Mr Z’s cheerleader, the Telegraph, said it was baseless right-wing nonsense, so did not have to refute his points.
Point out jab injuries and your claims are baseless, even when based on government data.
Point out the fraud that is the climate crisis and it’s shouted down as baseless, even though it is the crisis that is truly baseless.
Now, following the ‘break in’ at Pelosi’s house, Musk has teasingly tweeted, “There is a tiny possibility there might be more to this story than meets the eye,” and yes that’s labelled a baseless conspiracy theory.
Actually, after viewing a lot of footage and factual comment, curious and unbelievable are two words that better spring to mind. The break-IN where the shattered glass was on the outside; the assailant apparently in his underwear (a fact quickly lost from reports); the police chief statement in which he reported his officers saying both men were holding a hammer (sharing or what?); someone, not me I hasten to add, dug up a realistic hammer sex toy on sale on Amazon (yes, seriously); the assailant in his rage apparently allowed Paul Pelosi (before during or after his attacks is not clear) a ‘bathroom’ break (what?) – during which Pelosi called the police from a phone that, wouldn’t you know, happened to be in there charging.
In the call to police it is said the assailant is a friend called David, yet the media instantly vilify him as a right-wing pervert and nut-job with all sorts of handy lurid stories from acquaintances. Hilary Clinton immediately piled in blaming Republicans for stirring up hate (projection if ever there was), much as Farage was blamed indirectly for Jo Cox’s murder – same old leftist playbook; another giveaway that it’s about the mid-terms.
Then there are the injuries; it was reported that one strike fractured Pelosi’s skull and that he had surgery. But within a few hours they were saying he’ll be fine. How can you know that so soon with that type of injury and to an 82yo? The op went OK but we are monitoring him closely, is what you would expect. Stranger and stranger. So, yes, there is very much that seems to be very base about it, and much that is far from baseless and much that strains credibility. Not least, how does a guy out and about in his underwear, as you do, (or perhaps he took his clothes of once inside, as you do) … how does someone break in unseen at the front of a property in an area of massively expensive houses and ‘important’ wealthy folk, heavily patrolled and, one would have thought, covered every inch by security cameras? No comments on that have come forth.
The ‘Twindemic’ reminds me of the little boy who cried wolf.
It was trotted out in Autumn 2020 (only flu jabs available then) I know so many folk who duly trotted off to get theirs. Microbiologist’s response? Duh, what flu? Little or no movement between countries, people trying, or being made to try, to avoid the much more contagious Covid. Verdict – no flu season
2021 – that Twindemic threat again, get your Autumn boosters, don’t overwhelm the NHS. Microbiologist’s response? Still can’t see any evidence re flu – and there was so little in S. Hemisphere due to covid measures, how on earth did they decide what strains to put in the jab. Got my covid booster and declined flu in the other arm – said I’d wait to see if it turned up. Guess who was right.
2022 – here we go again, except there is some evidence that flu is starting up and it is the strain that was in the S. Hemisphere. The microbiologist is still watching and waiting and TBH I wouldn’t bother for myself, especially as I’m still trying to avoid the other, more contagious, beastie but my husband is potentially vulnerable to both viruses so I probably will, if rates rise, to protect him (as far as I am aware flu vax, if the strain is right, should help block transmission as well as infection).
I hope Doris and Sunak does go to go COP. Anything that wakes up Tory voters to their true priorities – furthering the globalist agenda. Maybe they will commit loads more of taxpayers lolly to this Ponzi scheme in return for a big internationalist job for Doris to help him keep him financially solvent.

Illegal migration has reached a point where the Home Office is planning to put illegals in hotels alongisde the public. That is, instead of commandering an entire hotel – there are none left that will agree – the Home Office will book rooms individually. Watch out next time you stay at Claridges or The Ritz. I’m joking (I hope) as it will be the likes of Premier Inn and Travel Lodge so if you are staying overnight somewhere do ask if they have a no migrants policy or you may end up in a room next to an Albanian criminal or Somali rapist though you may bump into them in the street anyway even if not at your hotel.
I do wonder what our Home Office officials will do when they have filled all available hotel rooms. The tents in London parks idea may yet come back and be forced on the borough councils who resisted it. One thing they will not recommend and the only thing proven to work (cf Australia and recently Denmark and soon Sweden and Italy) is remove the pull factor. Denmark placed an ad in Arabic media saying do not come here, you are not welcome. Austraila said no ctizenship or right to stay for anyone who arrived illegally. The UK’s policy is free accommodation, all meals, priority dental and GP appointments, phones, and spending money. Hmm. I wonder why everyone wants to come here?
All courtesy of the Tory Party and all those who were so utterly foolish enough to believe them in 2010,2015, 2017, 2019 on their manifesto promise to deal with mass illegal/legal migration to these shores.
There were illegals in a hotel I was staying in Folkstone in 2019. It was very uncomfortable.
Yes Stout @ 9.41am.
Strikes me that in spite of T. Maye signing the Global Compact at Marakesh, we could simply pass laws stating that immigrants will not qualify for free health, universal benefit, community housing, etc. until they can prove they have worked and paid contributions for at least ten years.
Immigrants coming to this country, if they can not be deported, will be given no accomodation of any kind and will simply be homeless.
Our police force has been alerted to proritise real crime, rather than ‘hate speech’ and will view any homeless person as a potential suspect.
How does that sound?
Sounds like Pie in the sky Pauline.
SY- a friend working in a hotel in Manchester told me this has been going on for months there. And the illegals occupying the top floor are rude and abusive (entitlement).
Part maybe that she speaks Russian as well as English. So much for racial equality, tolerance gender equality and so on? Perhaps we should keep quiet, otherwise that will be a course(s) they can attend complete with costly translators.
“we could simply pass laws stating that immigrants will not qualify for free health..”
Before we can even think of that we must get and remain right out of the EU. Unless we’re very lucky and very careful I foresee the next election bringing in a Govt headed by Starmer whose strings are pulled by Blair whose strings are pulled by Soros, the biggest meddler and engineer of
this invasion. The first thing they will do is get us back in the EU insofar as we ever left; or drop all pretence that we did leave.
Then we’ll need a clear out of almost the entire British establishment, who are all collaborating in the destruction of our coumtry.
There’s no way large numbers of public service workers are planning to leave. T
Most of the jobs they do are so specialised they would be unemployable elsewhere.
Especially now when the economy is so uncertain.
No HA, they won’t leave because they are unemployable elsewhere in this country.
