Brilliant speech by life long Labour contributor and London firefighter, from Sept, but only uploaded past couple of days, regarding the UK *Lefts’ failure of women with regard to “Self ID” and the “gender identity mafia”.
A couple of commenters on this site who’ve thrown around “terf” mockingly and as a disparagement and/or insult, and/or saying there’s no harm with self identity, you could do with watching this.
*Left including… Corbyn; UK Labour; Owen Jones; The Guardian; all Leftist media; all UK unions bar 3… and more, all get called out.
Aye it is. Animal cruelty of any kind is wrong and is a barometer of us as a species. Can’t believe they’d do that. * (just back from pub so opinions may be emotionally charged)

The more I hear about these armies, the less I like them.
It wouldn’t surprise me at all to hear that they went around killing humans too.

Not the sort of sentiment most people agreed with when Herr Hitler was knocking at the door.
You enjoy the luxury of never being threatened by a dictator.
If Britain had fallen Ireland would have been overrun on the first day before the Nazis even sat down for their lunchtime bratwurst and schnapps.

This is a repost of an earlier comment which appears to have been deleted along with other critical comments, if that is what BS is becoming, a site that randomly deletes comments without reference and particularly critical comments then you can keep it. I could be wrong but I’m guessing that most people come here for the comments rather than the content and BS should bear that in mind.
“That’s the point bertie, there is no thinking or policy on here at all. For instance they frequently publish swear words themselves but then won’t even allow commentators to use them even if spelled phonetically. Its very unprofessional and frankly sometimes turns me off this site completely. There’s no rhyme or reason to this site and frequently seems to depend on who is “working” at any given time.”

It’s now got to the point where you can’t have a civilised or indeed even intelligent conversation on this site with that thug trying to shout it down to his level. Why is this troll allowed to do this John? I get that BS does not make a lot of money and that it is ran by volunteers but we, the commentators, are giving our time free too.
I am a pretty good judge of character and I think you to be a decent man but if this continues, BroadSheet will close. Maybe that is what you want but if so; why not just go ahead and do it instead of allowing such disrespect of the OTHER volunteers, namely us?

What you want is an echo chamber where everyone thinks and talks like you.
It’s the classic whine of the liberals who try to shut down debate they don’t agree with.
It happens in universities,Hollywood the media and everywhere people are employed in the public sector.
It happened yesterday when Remoaners demanded Arron Banks shouldn’t appear on this morning’s Andrew Marr Show to answer questions about his donations to the Leave campaign because the National Crime Agency has been asked to investigate them by the Remain-dominated Electoral Commission.He has not been charged with anything.
Well,I have news for you.

I’d be one of the first to defend this site and the lads who run it, but with respect, today Ollie spammed the comments section with complete crap, and of the seventy odd comments I saw, I’d say 85% were his. I’ve no issue with him expressing a differing opinion, fine. I don’t have to like the way he interests with the commentators here, that’s the nature of the internet. But the needless stuff he posted here today was spam, pure and simple, and as I said before not even memes was let away with it.
@john & bodger & co. I appreciate that you all have lives and the voluntary nature of the site, so thank you for listening and removing the comments.
John 'Preposterous' Ryan
Thanks, Millie. I removed the comments as soon as I got on the site. We don’t wish to close off comments during the night and sometimes this can occur. I am sorry.
Bertie Blenkinsop
The part I don’t understand though is, Ollie’s posts were being moderated.
Someone moderated the swear words in his post.
And when Papi and I posited the theory that Ollie was in fact a moderator trolling the site for clicks it was deleted almost immediately.
So there clearly was selective moderation at play while OC was polluting the site.
John 'Preposterous' Ryan
Comments were moderated for swearing earlier by Neil. They were moderated for content when I got on to the site. Your theory that we are trolling our own site is untrue. Ollie has no role in Broadsheet whatsoever.
Bertie Blenkinsop
My point was Papi and I had our comments deleted immediately whereas Ollie’s were left to fester for hours.
I don’t engage with Ollie but
I’ve no doubt that Broadsheet love the outrage and responses he brings to the site.
You say he’s not your doing and I’ve no reason not to believe you but I’ll put it this way, if he didn’t exist you’d probably invent him.
It might also be an idea to respond to queries rather than deleting them, that way it makes it look like you’ve got something to hide.
Happy Monday.
John 'Preposterous' Ryan
You concede we are not behind Ollie but you are certain that if he didn’t exist we’d invent him because we love the outrage. You are wrong.

Okay,I hold my hands up,I was quite refreshed while posting dog puns in the early hours.
I’d just come from a raucous dinner party.
I admit I fell below my usual standards of knowledgeable and incisive political comment.
And the bad jokes were just an attempt to bring some humour to a couple of commentators on here who were miserable about having some posts deleted,not that I had the first idea what they were about.
I’ll try to up my game although to be honest I have some chums round who are enjoying a few Makers Mark shots.
I’ll try to observe decorum.

I see Marine Le Pen’s National Rally has overtaken the centrist party of Emmanuel Macron, the French president, for the first time, according to an opinion poll released Sunday.
It’s a further sign of the rise of the far-Right in Europe as well as Macron’s spectacular fall from grace in France.
Coupled with Frau Merkel’s disintegration it’s clear the electorate is growing increasingly impatient at the tin-eared response of European leaders to the concerns over immigration.
Having no land borders Ireland is slightly inured from the problem but that luxury won’t last forever.

LOL, you think Brexit is about immigration and border control.
I hope the City doesn’t get it’s special deal and UK crashes out into communism.
Ollie Cromwell
If Brexit isn’t about immigration why do all the nodding dog liberals on here say it’s racist ?
You haven’t really thought that one through have you ?
ReproButina
Racism was used to sell Sasamach to the British public.
Ollie Cromwell
So Brexit is about immigration then ?
Actually polls have consistently shown most people who voted Leave did so for two reasons in roughly the same measure – immigration and sovereignty.
It’s also worth pointing out that one in three black and ethnic minority voters in the referendum voted to Leave.
Rather dents the old racism theory but you keep on running with it if it makes you happy old sport.
It’ll all soon be irrelevant anyway.
ReproButina
Well there’s how it was sold to the public and what it’s all about.
You spend so much time here carping on about immigrants and cheerleading about Sasamach that you’d be hard pushed to argue the two aren’t connected.

Racism was used to sell Sasamach to the British public.
So Brexit is about immigration then ?
Actually polls have consistently shown most people who voted Leave did so for two reasons in roughly the same measure – immigration and sovereignty.
It’s also worth pointing out that one in three black and ethnic minority voters in the referendum voted to Leave.
Rather dents the old racism theory but you keep on running with it if it makes you happy old sport.
It’ll all soon be irrelevant anyway.
Well there’s how it was sold to the public and what it’s all about.
You spend so much time here carping on about immigrants and cheerleading about Sasamach that you’d be hard pushed to argue the two aren’t connected.
Well I started one bathroom, and ended up doing two of ’em… another couple of hours I’ll be done :)
And look at all the messin’ on BS, and nuttin’ ta do with me, wha’ !
Hope your Sunday is going alright Mr Preposterous, all that messin’ aside !
