    Putin’s Channel Exalts Louse Lineker! 


    I woke up in the middle of the night ( it’s been a very hectic but fun weekend…week, rather) so got outa bed…

    .

    .

    …and switched on the TV, deciding  to see what RT was up to.

    .

    .

    RT is always eager to promote Putin’s point of view….

    ‘Liberators Of Riga?’ Come Off It, RT!

    ..

    …though I have never joined Kaiserin Ursula’s paranoid eagerness to suppress the channel.

    Hands Off RT! Somebody Should Start A Petition! 

    Sure enough, RT was plainly taking the side of the vilest elements in the West, in this case Louse Lineker, with the imbecilic words…

    Public Furious

    …blazoned across the screen.

    Of course dolts like Keir Starmer, yes, The Anatomy Expert….

    .Labour’s Penis Problem 

    …are on board the pro-crimmigrant band-wagon.

    BUT the British public is NOT ‘furious,’ far from it, some delighted to see the back of the man because he’s a bigoted leftist, others because they see no reason why the pro-crimmigrant shrill gets well over a million pounds sterling a year from the public purse…

    .

    ….cash coerced from humble folk by UK Pravda’s license tax.

    RT quickly, inexplicably, passed the microphone to a Ugandan woman, who appeared to see no reason why Lineker should not multi-task….

    .

    .

    …digging his snout into the tax-trough while airing his gutter garbage views.

    Enough! I was about to switch channels when another report began, about Latin America..

    .

    ..

    …which soon lapsed into crude communist propaganda, lying that the brutal Castro regime had ‘struggled to create a progressive society’ in Cuba..

    Yeah, Right!

      I was just commenting about the BBC when you published this, so I read what you wrote and agree again, it’s exactly what we should have expected, BBCand RT hardly ever on the same page but when it’s an issue of undermining Britain, theyall of a sudden sound very similar.

    Al Jazeera Slurs British Raj – Gets It WRONG! 


    The Fourth Reich’s jackboot may have descended on RT in some parts of Europe…

    ….but happily we can still get it in Indonesia, and I usually tune in at least once a day.

    Last week the Russian channel had some toe-rag droning on about how the British Raj was such a terrible time for India.

     

    No mention of how the Brits suppressed the barbaric Thuggee cult, and did their best to end the dreadful Suttee custom.

    We learned about all that in school.

    But RT currently dislikes Britain,  understandably perhaps, so what else to expect?

    Hands Off RT! Somebody Should Start A Petition! 

    Their newscaster has just insulted our intelligence by describing a monument to the Red Army in Latvia’s capital as a monument to ‘The Liberators of Riga!’

    The Soviet Union never liberated anyone.

    .

    Latvia

    ..

    The USSR used its occupation forces to consign Latvia to decades of brutal marxist servitude.

    From the Red Army’s arrival until Latvia regained its freedom in 1989…

    …it was a key instrument of oppression.

    Now that monument has, belatedly, been demolished.

    What must be disturbing, to Latvian patriots, is the mob of ethnic Russians protesting against the demolition.

    Enemy Within, indeed!

    And RT today is inimical to truth.

    We wrote about Bryant’s censorious shrilling – “Can we just stop ‘Russia Today’ just broadcasting its propaganda in this country?” last year, was it, asking if his authoritarianism was matched only by his hypocrisy!

    RT, which called itself a pawn in the international incident, streamed a 2014 episode featuring Bryant on the network promoting his book on constitutional reform.

    I also explained that the EUSSR’s Kaiserin Ursula had boasted how her Fourth Reich….

    …had outlawed RT.

    So we thrilled at watching forbidden media.

    Interesting, compelling even, when it featured Russian soldiers and Ukranian civilans hostile to the narratives coming out of Kiev.

    But when it reverted to outright propaganda mode, interspersing footage of torch-bearing nationalist Ukrainians on the march with scenes of 1930s Germans similarly engaged….

    …come off it1

    There was worse to come, an indignant pre-occupation with Poland’s moves to get rid of monuments to the Red Army.

    .

    .

    For anyone who isn’t up on modern history, reminders!

    When the heroic Poles rose against the German occupiers in Warsaw, that Red Army sat back,within a few miles of the fighting, and waited till Hitler’s forces put down the insurrection.

    Oh, and BTW…

    It would inexplicable if Poles were not ridding their country of every monument to the Red Army.

    My lunch guest and I are neither of us more or less perceptive than most of you, but we were certainly unimpressed by RT air-brushing of historical evil.

    What folly…

      His demand that she provide him with names of women raped by the invaders of Ukraine was moronic. The identities of rape victims should not be exposed.

    Of course OfCom has banned RT  – breaking news on UK Pravda just an hour ago…

    …but if RT is not a ‘fit and proper’ broadcaster, why not ban UK Pravda too?

    We have considered RT, have criticised some of its programmes and praised others.

    Yet by any reckoning, the BBC is infinitely worse.

    OfCom may have occasionally offered mild criticism of the BBC but has more often given their left bigotry a green light.

    And we weren’t the only ones to think so.

    And I just heard Amal Rajan, the BBC’s ‘media editor,’ explaining how the difference between ‘state broadcasters’ and ‘public broadcasters’ was that the latter didn’t bring ‘ideological baggage’ into their jobs.

    So by that definition BBC is NOT a public broadcaster…

    HAR HAR HAR…’ A BBC Spokesman Said…’ 

    …as you and I have noticed.

    We have criticised Putin’s adventurism sufficiently but we are not afraid to read or watch stuff that’s published by his fans.

    We credit most Brits with enough sense to do the same without being gulled.

    So we see no reason why a pack of ex-BBC hacks….

      ( as many an OfCommissar is, with consequently predictable outcomes –
