...for pinching this from the comments over at Going Postal yesterday but I just couldn’t help myself. Apologies to all concerned - especially the originator; a classic.
Is this not a perfect sum up of wot we’re up against right now or wot?
Quote; Jerome K. Jerome.
I see our proud seekers of truth at the BB-Calamity are in a bit of bother over ‘fake’ reporting. Again. Is this the death knell of our beloved ‘news’
channels? I mean how will so many millions of us wypipo start the day without checking this wondrous BBC site paid for by you and me for stuff like this;
“Donald Trump don announce say US no go attend di G20 summit for South Africa on top one widely discredited claims say dem dey oppress white pipo for di kontri.”
Anyhoo, I’m sure that site will be getting ever more popular here as the demographic changes year by year; nay, month by month.
Looking on the bright side I see ‘I’m A Celebrity{?} Get Me Out Of Here’ is due to return to our televisual receiving devices soon. How exciting is that
then? No? Oh.

“In this era of fake news and paid news artificial intelligence is more and more used as a political tool to manipulate and dictate common people, through big data, biometric data, and AI analysis of online profiles and behaviours in social media and smart phones. But the days are not far when AI will also control the politicians and the media too."
Upon awakening to the shocking ‘news’ of the train stabbings, I’m waiting for the ‘official’ translation of the incident once the damage limitation
department has it sorted and it’s blamed on a catastrophic software error on a ticket inspectors ticket punching machine.
May I humbly repeat myself? Thank you:
Oh to live on an island with easily protected borders An island rich in deposits of coal, natural gas and oil
thus enabling the government to ensure the population they were elected to protect and serve, can live in safety and have secure, readily available, reasonably priced energy.
Quote; A K Haart.
“This soggy word salad is merely bureaucracy, nothing to do with the world beyond the bureaucratic bubble of meetings, resolutions, agendas, posturing, announcements, brochures, discussion papers, media briefings, logos, NGOs, quangos, lectures, strident finger-wagging, virtue peddling, overseas travel and more meetings. Then even more meetings.”
