And Finally…

by Toby Young
22 March 2022 12:35 AM

In this week’s episode of London Calling, James Delingpole and I discuss Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe’s unwillingness to thank the British government for securing her release at a cost of £400 million to the British taxpayer; Boris’s comparison of the crisis in Ukraine to Brexit (as well as his morning jog on Blackpool Beach); the absurd spectacle of Formula 1 drivers wearing masks while being interviewed at the Grand Prix (don’t they like taking risks?); various ingenious ways of making the Oscars more popular (we could present a Best Non-Woke Film Award); and, in Culture Corner, Sharpe’s Fortress (hooray), season five of The Last Kingdom (boo), and The Dropout (hooray).

You can listen to the podcast here and subscribe to it on iTunes here.

There is no tyranny worse than the one that hounds you for YOUR OWN GOOD. They NEVER sleep.

How does the weakening of encryption for the purposes of increased surveillance safety square with the inexorable push to force us to use CBDC which – theoretically – would require more than currently available to control protect all those additional digital payments? Or is the answer self-evident?

If you believe this is about protecting children you’re probably desperate for your next booster.

Ah yes, protecting children. They haven’t managed that so far with grooming gangs rife in this country:

Manchester – the sainted Maggie Oliver lifted the lid.

Oldham – OMBC and Fuerher Burnham still refusing a proper inquiry.

Rochdale – still problems after a few token convictions.

Rotherham – ongoing.

Norwich, Bristol and most Northern towns.

And now we have the sexualisation of children in schools with bloody Queer Hour and Drag Queens and masturbation for four year olds. So obviously The Online Safety Bill is designed to protect children. A more direct lie could not be invented.

David Davies has at least raised his voice but it is too little too late. This crap has been in the planning for years.

The real fightback should have kicked in to gear March 20th 1920 but the cowards in Westminster rolled over and each month privacies and freedoms have been stolen and nothing said bar a lot of lies.

“To protect the children.”

Oh do firk off!

My thoughts exactly.
Contrast the purported concerns about protecting the children with the recent article concerning the teacher sacked for not using the “correct pronouns” for an 8 year old who thinks they are in the wrong body!

Steve Martin said it all many years ago in this famous skit.

Good for him for saying so but you wonder how he can continue to be a member of the Conservative party.

Davis and a few others such as Redwood and Baker appear to play a strategic role in playing to centre Right voter base but are party loyalists to the top of their boots.
This theatrical group have not changed the Leftwards drift of the party for thirty years. Fake Tories like the rest of them

Redwood apparently claimed to TCW that he voted against all the lockdown measures. Not true. He was late to the party. I think only Swayne voted NO in all of them. Hard to credit anyone who stays in that party and claims to be conservative with any credibility.

The government concerned about online child abuse they are taking the p**s.

Covid psyop and fear mongering
Climate emergancy fear porn
Forced to wear face masks
School closures
Toxic gene therapies
Sex education/gender realignment

Add to the list as you see fit.

The online safety bills are happening across the globe these are top down instructions coming from the WEF. They don’t give 2 s**ts about children.
