Reading the summaries which appear on the DS daily page it is very hard to understand why TY continues to be associated with the Conservative Party.
look at all the stories on the site today or yesterday or any day and we see chaos, winery, anti-democracy and all the rest.
all this has happened over the past 20 years. In most of that time the Conservative (sic) Oarty has provided the PM.
For years before that that they were the official opposition but they failed to oppose any of this “crap” (a term used by a politician).
throw them all out soonest.
I think Toby’s association is with certain elements of the party, which are more ‘grassroots’ than the everyday parliamentary party. Trouble is, these organisations are so complex and unwieldy now, it’s hard to know what’s what.
The Conservative Party has always been a broad church, a coalition of groups with very different views, often completely opposed to each other on major issues.
It’s extremely difficult for politicians to get elected as independents or by forming a new party, so it’s not unusual for those who disagree with the party’s leadership to stay in the party and fight to change it from within.
If the Conservative Party lose the next General Election, it may be a very different party in three or four years from now.
When the Maastricht Trteaty was beiung imposed the CP was not a broad church at local level. I was a branch member who wanted to discuss it but the Chairman refused.
I resigned from the CP the day the Treaty was forced through the HoC using outrageous methods of blackmail.
What? TY associates with the Conservative Party? Throw him out at once! Never listen to him ever again! Make sure he can’t monetise his obscene views! I understand he once told an off-colour joke; pillory him until he apologises again. Then cancel him.
Talking of the Conservative Party, this is an excellent tirade from the always-worth-reading Ann Coulter. It’s advice for the Republicans but could equally well apply to the Tories.
My Party: The Stupid Party! – Ann Coulter
The DCMS has contacted Rumble, pushing them to demonetise Russell Brand. That’s absolutely disgraceful and will reinforce the idea for many that this is a political takedown. Meanwhile the front page of the Mail website is pushing Jimmy Saville comparisons. It’s a warning that they can do this to anyone who steps out of line…
Demonetisation of DCMS is long overdue.
From Eva Vlaardingerbroek letters from the Government to Tik Tok & Rumble regarding Russel Brand
And Rumble’s response. Well done Rumble!
https://x.com/rumblevideo/status/1704584927834960196?s=61&t=AY3dxo4CPswl6wmndLEhaw
Read that yesterday and I think Rumble’s response and general attitude is awesome and to be commended. This is how it should be across the board, but we know that Rumble are one of many that don’t fall under the umbrella that is the totally corrupt and repugnant ‘Big Tech’. Thank the gods for independent platforms, where sanity, freedom and fairness are still a thing. For now anyways.
Thank Mogs, my thoughts exactly. What is deeply impressive is the tone of the response from Rumble – a loud and proud F. Off to the British Government and damned right too.
God bless them.
Is all this real?
Maybe I’ve been round the block too many times, but all these letters seem a bit fishy.
If they are real… goddam…
Innocent until proven guilty!
Or more succinctly: Dear Caroline, go f**k yourself.

Wow Absolutely bloody WOW!

Wow..this one is to GB News..I actually think this is quite threatening….
Notice that only GB News is the impartial one, as usual…
…this entire thing is looking more and more like a set-up…..

Chief Executive Officer
GB News
By email
19 September 2023
Dear Angelos,
As you will be aware, the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee has been looking at issues of behaviour in the media following a number of accusations against individuals and concerns about institutional culture.
In July this year we wrote to the editor of The Sun regarding serious accusations made against Dan Wootton. The newspaper responded by setting out its ongoing investigation into his alleged behaviour. The following month DMG Media, as the publisher of MailOnline, announced Mr Wootton has been suspended as a columnist while its own investigations are ongoing. Since then, we are aware that Mr Wootton continues to broadcast on GB News, and indeed discussed the accusations against him during a broadcast on the channel on 19 July 2023.
It is vital that viewers have faith in the media especially in the case of news brands, where truthfulness and accuracy are key. It is also vital that those working in and with the media can be confident that they are working in a safe environment.
We would be grateful therefore, if you could se out to us what if any investigations or processes have been undertaken since the recent complaints about Mr Wooten were publicly raised, and details of the policies and procedures available to all staff at GB News in the event they seek to raise issues about the conduct of individuals or the culture at the organisation.
We are also aware that, during the weekend of 16/17 September, GB News presenters opted to use their social media platforms to defend Russell Brand against accusations of rape and sexual assault. While GB News is not responsible for this content, it is concerning that Beverley Turner, who described Mr Brand as “a hero” and invited him to appear on her show, subsequently fronted GB News’s coverage of the allegations regarding Mr Brand on the morning of 18 September.
During that broadcast, Ms Turner announced that “If he’d offered to come on this morning, we’d’ve had him, let’s be honest”. While Ms Turner was challenged on her comments at length by her co-presenter. Andrew Pierce, we remain concerned that having a presenter so clearly supporting an individual who is the subject of intense media coverage, including seeking their appearance on the show, undermines any perception of due impartiality in the broadcasting. We would be grateful if you could set out your discussions with GB News presenters on their responsibilities on due impartiality and professionalism when seeking to front
coverage ot news events, and any actions you intend to take in response to these issues
Yours sincerely,
GandheDrage
Dame Caroline Dinenage DBE MP
Chair, Culture, Media and Sport Committee
Looks like Dame Caroline has a severe case of “non-entity authoritarian backbencher no-one cares about, with too little to do, but still craving the limelight” disease, aka ‘E77wood syndrome’. A period of self-imposed silence would be most welcome.
Naah, she’s not bright enough to initiate this sort of malignant stuff. She’s had her orders from higher ups.
Yes, on reflection I agree – the message gets sent by a backbencher, with plausible deniability for ministers and govt officials.
A period of permanent firkin silence would be welcome where the Dinenage woman is concerned.
Clearly acting as Judge, Jury and Executioner. Democratic, free speech Britain? FFS.
Anybody still under any illusions?
Unbelievable. Well let me reword. All too believable.
I’ve just found out Caroline Dinenage’s Husband is, get this, commander of the 77th brigade. The very unit that has been spying on and censoring the citizens of this nation throughout the pandemic.
The “conspiracy theorists” just keep on being proved right about how things are run.
Only one question for Dame Caroline: “How?” (You have to be of a certain age!)
A reference to Fred – different spelling though.
Her dad, according to Wikipedia
Noooooooo! Jack Hargreaves and Fred…loved ‘em…..even if it was cultural appropriation…LOL!
Good grief. How does this Dinenage woman sleep at night?
This foul waste of Oxygen has had a life of British privilege but fails to understand one of the primary tenets of that life – innocent until proven guilty.
The UK government has form on this – targeting of individuals who are politically challenging or a threat to the official narrative. Last year without any evidence or charges being made, no investigation & no opportunity to refute the allegations made by the UK government, the UK independent journalist Graham Philips had all of his assets frozen, an arrest warrant issued & labelled a terrorist. His crime? Reporting from Lugansk & Donbass regions since 2014. On the ground independent investigative journalism which contradicted the propaganda of Russian man bad.
Youtube also waded in & demonetised him. Rumble is his platform of choice for his longer video reports.
Indeed. I forgot about this young man.
Since when is science the consensus of experts? Science should really be about disproving hyotheses as in Karl Popper. I suppose in medical sience there are the Bardford Hill criteria for establishing correlation- not an expert on that. Try this as an example of refuting climate models:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttNg1F7T0Y0&t=3138s.
So who has been cancelled now? Dr Mike Yeadon, Andrew Bridgen, Dr Malcolm Kendrick, Russel Brand, Mark Steyn. The list goes on. No doubt Neil Oliver soon. Not to mention people running this place. I suppose one can go and look at Wikepedia and see what it says about them to figure that out.
sorry Bradford Hill
Criteria for establishing causation, I think…
Is Malcolm Kendrick posting on any other platform do you know? I’m a fan…
Has been quiet for a bit as fighting a court case, apparently. On the front page of his website:

Thanks, Wyrdwoman, I’ll have a look.
I know I’ve shared this story recently but this is Robert Spencer describing more eloquently than me why this atrocious sculpture of a Muslim women in Birmingham is just hugely insulting and inappropriate. The artist isn’t even Muslim so god knows what he was thinking.
”In Iran, women are dying for the freedom not to wear the hijab. And in the Smethwick area of Birmingham, witless Leftists are celebrating the symbol of their oppression.
Back on Sept. 16, 2022, in Tehran, the Iranian morality police arrested Mahsa Amini, a 22-year-old woman, for not wearing her hijab properly. Amini later died in a hospital in Tehran, and numerous Iranians charged that she had been tortured to death while in custody. All over the country, protesters took to the streets to protest not against the hijab laws, but against the repressive and brutal Islamic Republic itself.
Other women, and male protesters as well, were killed as the Iranian regime ruthlessly applied the Qur’anic injunction to “strike terror in the enemies of Allah” (8:60). The protests went on for months until the regime began summarily executing protesters, and even then some indomitably courageous Iranians continued to take to the streets to demand their freedom.
It is against that backdrop that this statue will be set in place. For innumerable women in Iran, the hijab is the most visible sign of their second-class status, and of the brutality of the regime that will imprison them for years or even kill them outright for daring to venture out in public without wearing it. And now that symbol of oppression is being celebrated in shattered, staggering, dhimmi Britain.”
https://www.jihadwatch.org/2023/09/uk-to-install-sculpture-celebrating-women-who-wear-hijab
Further on this topic in Iran, yet more abuse and gender apartheid. Do we think the artist who created that ugly eyesore is so thick and uninformed as to be completely ignorant of the plight of women in majority Muslim countries? And if he is aware then does that not make him an outright misogynist? Should it not be freedom that is celebrated and not the human rights abuses of oppressive regimes/ideologies?
”A year after women in Iran came out to protest against the mandatory Hijab law after the murder of Mahsa Amini, the Iranian parliament passed a ‘hijab and chastity’ bill on Wednesday (20 September). The bill seeks to increase jail terms and fines for women and girls who ‘flout’ Tehran’s strict dress code. As per the bill, girls/women who dress “inappropriately” could face up to 10 years in jail.
The bill was introduced in the Iranian parliament in May following the death of 22-year-old Iranian woman Mahsa Amini while in police custody last year on 16 September.
As per the judiciary’s Mizan news, the bill has been approved for a three-year trial period.. According to media reports, the lawmakers were split regarding the trial period with some even proposing it to be five years. However, they agreed on a trial period of three years, after which it will become a permanent law.
According to Iranian law, based on the country’s interpretation of Sharia, women and girls above the age of puberty have to cover their hair with a hijab and wear long, loose-fitting clothing to disguise their figures. Currently, women who do not comply with the dress code face a maximum prison term of two months or a fine of up to 500,000 rials ($10.14).
However, the bill passed by the Iranian parliament will drastically increase the punishment. As per the bill, women who would be caught dressed “inappropriately” in public places will be subject to a “fourth-degree” punishment. According to the penal code, it would mean a prison sentence ranging between five and 10 years along with a fine of up to 360m rials ($7,302).”

You’re not thinking like a woke liberal. Please apply the covid face nappy protocol: I wear it for you so you don’t get sexually inflamed and attack me. Or another woman, so do it for her too. Just wear it, it’s just a piece of material.
Does it show that I’m still livid about stupid face masks? For the record, I’m livid for the women in Iran too.
I used to live near there. Doubt that statue will last long!
We have a fine cultural tradition of statue toppling in this country. Let it commence!
A headline in one of the papers yesterday said how someone had spent £50K on net zero measures, and it was all waste because of Sunak’s back-pedalling on the agenda. Presumably each one “doing his bit” is (like COVID vaccinations) useless unless everybody does their bit.
The flaw, of course, is that the whole UK Net Zero project is “doing our bit” to reduce our 1/2% of the world’s emissions by less than the developing world increases it year on year. Given the rest of the world’s contempt for Britain as the US lapdog, we’re not even setting an example – just wasting our money and effort.
Unless it’s not actually about emissions.. which it isn’t.
Then our efforts are somebody else’s substantial gain. The question is whose.
This is what we need to see more countries in the West doing. This is one area where I’m definitely not *pro-choice*. If people want to dress up like that they should move to a country where it is the cultural norm. However, the reality is that it is very likely the woman isn’t doing it by choice.
”On Wednesday, September 20, the Lower House of Parliament in Switzerland passed legislation to ban burqa (Islamic veil) in the country. Following the passage of the legislation, covering one’s face with a burqa has become illegal and wearing it would attract a fine of 1000 Swiss Francs which is around Rs 83,000.
The legislation was adopted by the National Council with a vote of 151-29. It had already been approved by the upper house. It was easily passed by the Swiss People’s Party, despite reservations expressed by centrists and the Greens.
The legislation comes after a nationwide referendum in 2021 in which Swiss voters approved prohibiting niqabs, that leave slits for the eyes, burqas, ski masks, and bandanas.
The proposal to ban face veils in public was passed in a referendum in 2021. The Swiss People’s Party (SVP) members who constitute the Egerkinger Komitee, which organised “resistance against the claims to power of political Islam in Switzerland”, were behind the initiative to outlaw the burqa.
Contending that “free people show their faces” and “the burqa and niqab are not normal clothes,” the group amassed the necessary 100,000 petition signatures in 2017 to push a referendum on the issue. 51.2% of Swiss voters approved the proposed ban.”
https://www.opindia.com/2023/09/switzerlands-parliament-passes-legislation-to-ban-burqa/
”Free people show their faces”….I take this latest legislation to mean that Switzerland will never bring back face nappies then. Well that would be entirely reasonable under this new law wouldn’t it?
So we have confirmation. I wonder what the figure will look like in the next report seeing as we can look forward to more immigration, not less.
”Last year, the vast majority of migrants smuggled into the European Union were males, with the proportion of females only 8 percent, the European Border Agency Frontex said in its 2023-2024 risk analysis report.
In what Frontex terms “clandestine entries,” the leading group of nationals were Afghans (33 percent) followed by Syrians (15 percent) and Turks (10 percent).
The Frontex report also warned that illegal entries are likely to further increase next year:
“There is much to suggest that clandestine entry may increase in the next year in line with expected higher migratory pressure at the EU external borders in general,” it said. “At the same time, increased vehicle traffic at select border-crossing points (not to mention possibly altered circumstances while crossing land BCPs during the introduction of the Entry-Exit System) increases the chances of clandestine migrants going undetected, often under life-threatening and inhumane conditions.”
The report also pointed out that illegal entrants come from countries (mostly Afghanistan and Syria) “where some of the largest increases in movements to Europe may be expected.”
Frontex also said that in addition to illegal migration, there was also a proliferation of drug smuggling networks into the European Union, with reported drug seizures in 2022 amounting to 1,898 cases and 252 tons of illicit drugs.
For years, critics of mass immigration have noted that most of the illegal migrants coming to Europe are fighting-age males, in sharp contrast to the majority of women who came from Ukraine when the war broke out. In addition, the vast majority of these males are economic migrants who are not fleeing war or persecution.”
https://rmx.news/crime/frontex-only-8-of-eus-illegal-migrants-were-women-last-year/
in the above article we find:
Erm. ‘Sniffing a Goshawk’? Is that a euphemism for something?
I have never understood why creeps such as Packham are still given airtime -I am of course being rhetorical – but surely if Russell Brand can be demonised and ruined for his views then surely Packham is worthy of the same fate. It could legitimately be stated that he is inciting extreme violence with his oblique references to blowing up an oil refinery.
And what about JSO’s ‘non-violent’ protests?
Actually these protests are far from non-violent. Blocking roads and stopping people from going about their rightful business IS violence. As soon as a protest infringes on citizens basic rights it is violent. A polite request to move through a line blocking a road which is refused is a violent act. If someone’s right to earn a living is infringed then the protesters are not just violent but thieves as well.
The only non-violent protest/demonstration is one where the rights of fellow citizens are not infringed. It seems reasonable to me therfore that a violent response from the affected citizens is entirely proportionate and if that requires physically moving the nutters out of the way with a vehicle then so be it.
Regarding Igor Chudov’s substack piece …about breast feeding infants…
Sonja Elijah has been doing Stirling work on this issue……this interview on Redacted is from April…and is well worth a watch….she followed up with a big article in Children’s Health Defense……
..they have known about this for a long time..and still they re jabbing babies in the USA…and in this country they are still telling pregnant women to get the jab!!
Utterly indefensible…..

Anybody involved in jabbing after about June 2022 is at an absolute minimum guilty of GBH and if death occurs guilty of murder. No excuses.
…my bestie..a retired nurse, nearly got involved in jabbing in the early days when they were asking for volunteers…we talk about it now and thank God she was never called back……
I have a brother in law who is a retired dentist. He answered the call and got stuck in. I am biding my time but it will come.

I’m sure my @Telegraph readers will be horrified by @cj dinenage
writing to TikTok and Rumble trying to get Russell Brand cancelled before he has had a chance to answer his accusers.
Since when does a Culture Media and Sports role involve being a witch finder?
It’s chilling Dame Caroline should think it’s ok to behave in this way. Big Tech must not be coerced by government to persecute people. I trust those platforms will tell her to get lost.
We are not Stalin’s Russia.
Well done Alison Pearson.

“It’s easy to get angry at the dither and delay from some quarters. But our cities offer grounds for hope, because we’re the ones willing to make the tough calls.”
The words of the Islamist Khant – might as well call him what he is – making ‘the calls’ must be extremely draining both mentally and monetarily. Ain’t he a hero?
