UPDATE
Minutes after I posted this article, the ludicrous Jess Phillips published an article in the Guardian which could not have been better designed to prove my thesis. A number of people have posted comments on the Guardian article pointing this out, and they have all been immediately deleted by the Guardian. I just tried it myself and was also deleted. I should be grateful if readers could now also try posting comments there, in order to make a point about censorship on the Guardian.
Catching up on a fortnight’s news, I have spent five hours searching in vain for criticism of Simon Danczuk from prominent or even just declared feminists. The Guardian was the obvious place to start, but while they had two articles by feminist writers condemning Chris Gayle’s clumsy attempt to chat up a presenter, their legion of feminist columnists were entirely silent on Danczuk. The only opinion piece was strongly defending him.
This is very peculiar. The allegation against Danczuk which is under police investigation – of initiating sex with a sleeping woman – is identical to the worst interpretation of the worst accusation against Julian Assange. The Assange allegation brought literally hundreds, probably thousands of condemnatory articles from feminist writers across the entire range of the mainstream media. I have dug up 57 in the Guardian alone with a simple and far from exhaustive search. In the case of Danczuk I can find nothing, zilch, nada. Not a single feminist peep.
The Assange case is not isolated. Tommy Sheridan has been pursuing a lone legal battle against the Murdoch empire for a decade, some of it in prison when the judicial system decided his “perjury” was imprisonable but Andy Coulson’s admitted perjury on the Murdoch side in the same case was not. I personally witnessed in court in Edinburgh last month Tommy Sheridan, with no lawyer (he has no money) arguing against a seven man Murdoch legal team including three QCs, that a letter from the husband of Jackie Bird of BBC Scotland should be admitted in evidence. Bird was working for Murdoch and suggested in his letter that a witness should be “got out of the country” to avoid giving evidence. The bias exhibited by the leading judge I found astonishing beyond belief. I was the only media in the court.
Yet even though the Murdoch allegations against Sheridan were of consensual sexual conduct, Sheridan’s fight against Murdoch has been undermined from the start by the massive and concerted attack he has faced from the forces of feminism. Just as the vital messages WikiLeaks and Assange have put out about war crimes, corruption and the relentless state attack on civil liberties have been undermined by the concerted feminist campaign promoting the self-evidently ludicrous claims of sexual offence against Assange.
As soon as the radical left pose the slightest threat to the neo-con establishment, an army of feminists can be relied upon to run a concerted campaign to undermine any progress the left wing might make. The attack on Jeremy Corbyn over the makeup of his shadow cabinet was a classic example. It is the first ever gender equal shadow cabinet, but the entire media for a 96 hour period last September ran headline news that the lack of women in the “top” posts was anti-feminist. Every feminist commentator in the UK piled in.
Among the obvious dishonesties of this campaign was the fact that Defence, Chancellor, Foreign Affairs and Home Secretary have always been considered the “great offices of State” and the argument only could be made by simply ignoring Defence. The other great irony was the “feminist” attack was led by Blairites like Harman and Cooper, and failed to address the fact that Blair had NO women in any of these posts for a full ten years as Prime Minister.
But facts did not matter in deploying the organised feminist lobby against Corbyn.
Which is why it is an important test to see what the feminists, both inside and outside the Labour Party, would do when the leading anti-Corbyn rent-a-gob, Simon Danczuk, was alleged to have some attitudes to women that seem very dubious indeed, including forcing an ex-wife into non-consensual s&m and that rape allegation.
And the answer is …nothing. Feminists who criticised Assange, Sheridan and Corbyn in droves were utterly silent on the subject of Danczuk. Because the purpose of established and paid feminism is to undermine the left in the service of the neo-cons, not to attack neo-cons like Danczuk.
Identity politics has been used to shatter any attempt to campaign for broader social justice for everybody. Instead it becomes about the rights of particular groups, and that is soon morphed into the neo-con language of opportunity. What is needed, modern feminism argues, is not a reduction of the vast gap between rich and poor, but a chance for some women to become Michelle Mone or Ann Gloag. It is not about good conditions for all, but the removal of glass ceilings for high paid feminist journalists or political hacks.
Feminism has become the main attack tool in the neo-con ideological arsenal. I am sceptical the concept can be redeemed from this.
So the queen of hyperbole Sarah Palin, has came out to endorse the king of hyperbole Donald Trump.
It looks like a match made in hell, both like to veer off script and both like to shout a lot when orating.
Speaking at a Trump gathering in Iowa, Palin said “Trump is the man to kick ISIS ass.”
Palin went onto say Trump was a generous and compassionate man, all the time Palin was endorsing the “Donald” Trump himself stood by her side in a rather awkward pose.
Trump who bought Turnberry golf course, but immediately cost the Scottish economy an estimated £100 million pounds (as it will be very unlikely the Open will ever be held their whilst Trump is the owner) when made his outburst over Muslims and Mexicans.

“Sounds rather sensible to me for a land with a high population density and a rapidly expanding number of inhabitants (both Jewish and Arab citizens of Israel. Fallow land benefits no one (and wouldn’t even qualify for one of Node’s recurring “7 acts of agricultueal and economic sabotage”
“It reminds me a little abut the power UK local councils have to take over private properties which have remain vacant for more than a certain time in order to provide housing for homeless people in their area…..”

A typically smug remark from you Habbabkuk.
You do of course know that any future settlements built on this land will be for J-ws only and is completely illegal.
“UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon expressed deep concern over the Israel regime intentions to declare 370 acres in the Jordan Valley near West Bank “state land,” the UN chief’s spokesperson said in a statement.”
“The Secretary-General is deeply concerned about reports of the Israeli Government authorising the declaration of 370 acres in the West Bank, south of Jericho, as so-called ‘state land.”
“Ban called for substantial changes in the Israeli policy on Palestinians, stressing that settlement activities were a violation of international law.”
“Senior United Nations officials for the occupied Palestinian territory have called for an immediate end to Israeli plans to transfer Bedouin living in the Jerusalem area for a settlement expansion, long recognized as a violation of international law and an obstacle to realizing a two-state solution to the Middle East crisis.”

“Litvinenko! What did you expect. Blame Putin. Had to be. However there is a lot more to this than meets the eye. I should like to know why there has been no inquest finding. All the bullshit is purely that. But what is worse is these new laws are going to work very badly for everyone. An inquiry instead of an inquest. 10 years after his death. It stinks. The first coroner never even ruled that he was murdered. When he asked to see MI5/MI6 documents on the case they took him off it and replaced him with good old reliable Sir Robert Owen – and there you have it – another whitewash, just like Dr David Kelly.”

I would imagine John, that there is an invisible line that cannot be crossed between the likes of Britain and Russia. Although some dirty laundry can be washed in public, it wouldn’t bode well for either country to push it too far.
I’m pretty sure Putin has dirty laundry belonging to Britain, that could be washed in public. But I feel there’s a unwritten rule as to how far each nation will go to smear the other, before political decorum kicks in.
As for the suspicious death of Dr David Kelly, I concur with you on that John, that however is a domestic affair, that we’ll probably never get to the bottom of.

Don’t have to. You can assume the worst unless proven otherwise.
Dam viable if you really want to know, it is all in the furnace design with a fluid bed furnace you can achieve phenomenal reaction and oxidisation rates leaving practically very little to be flying out of the exhaust. But that is in need of a bunch of clean people and not the ones tainted with the various funds and bribes flowing their way from the governments the renewable sector as well as the more traditional energy sector.
Not so sexy fluid bed furnace/reactor
Blame Putin. Had to be.
Means, motive, opportunity, video footage of known associates doing the deed, and pretty dim ones at that. If I were Luguvoi and Kovtun, I’d be enormously pissed off that no-one had done a risk assessment on what we were carrying – and spilt – across half Europe, too. Especially as it glowed in the dark. Expendable couriers.
There’s absolutely no doubt it was done (like Nemtsov and scores of others) by the Queen personally, though assisted by Masons, Rothschilds, the Bilderberg Group*, the director-general of the BBC and three lizards from Planet Ickexxx. Putin’s so obviously in the frame that it had to be someone else…
More seriously, I’m a little surprised at the Official Line from Moscow, which expresses surprise that a public enquiry actually released secret (ish) details. While public enquiries in Russia are, er, renowned for their openness and lack of bias, they don’t do things that way, do they? Still, it can hardly have come as a shock to the Kremlin that Litvinenko was doing little jobs for SIS. So no point in preserving that knowledge.
*Sarcasm fails a little for the Bilderbergers, I admit.
Dr. Kelly? What about Diana?
How They Murdered Princess Diana: The Shocking Truth.
with a fluid bed furnace you can achieve phenomenal reaction and oxidisation rates leaving practically very little to be flying out of the exhaust.
Except CO2, mercury, SO2 etc. Which are produced in the same quantities as by any other combustion technology. The ash is even less recyclable, incidentally. ‘Clean coal’ doesn’t mean ‘soot free’.
I wonder what the Russian government knows about the JFK assassination.
According to recent report, on the culture of the BBC, by Dame Janet Smith, an, air of reticence runs deep within the staff.
Very few if any BBC employees came forward to speak over the behaviour of the likes of Jimmy Savile, and those that did, sought anonymity in the process. Most were afraid of losing their jobs or being bypassed for a promotion, so the narrative over Saviles vile exploits, were treated as “Jimmy just fooling around.”
One has to wonder what other tastless or corrupt events have taken place within the realm of the BBC. Incidents not reported due to a fear of dismissal, or obscurity within the state broadcaster.
It really is time the monolithic cabal posing as the state broadcaster, is broken up and controlled separately by UK nations.
Apologies, SO2 is lower in a limestone bed. But the CO2 problem is the same.
CO2 can be scrubbed and used in the fizzy drinks industry.

However, although it exposes certain sections of society, the courts etc, I really can’t bring myself to feel sorry for the demise of a rich pampered, royal breeder, who had countless boyfriends, her husband lived and probably still does, a similar lifestyle, at the expense of the hard working tax payer.

Ros so the rich, pampered and attractive have no right to life?
Or is it just the plain, old human characteristic of sheer jealousy?
Extraordinary insight into how your brain works.
“Britain must retain a nuclear deterrent as an ultimate insurance policy”
Above is a quote by defence secretary Michael Fallon. I for one fail to see how retaining Trident can be equated to a insurance policy.
In the event of a launch of nuclear missilies on Britain by another country, does the term “insurance policy” mean we launch our nukes in a counter launch, to be assured of mutal destruction.
Ergo we can relax in a sense of satisfaction that as we are vapourising, so are they.
That particular scenario however depends on the USA passing on the firing codes to Britain if that still applies.
Nukes, as a deterrent, who exactly are we detering? What about nations who don’t possess nukes, why haven’t those who we are mean’t to be detering vapourising them?
It’s pretty evident that even unstable nations such as North Korea and Pakistan, understand the consequences of using nuclear weapons. Infact only the USA has used WMD’s in anger.
Westminster’s desire to retain nukes, now useless in today’s warfare is a process of vanity and empirical projection, that will cost the tax payer dearly.
Dr. Kelly no doubt also lived a rather pampered life, compared to the majority of people. I don’t see how that reduces the wrongness of what was done to him.
Diana is pretty much an “open conspiracy” in the UK… most “asleep” friends and family (some of which are fervent royalists) believe it’s highly likely she was murdered. The “awake” ones don’t care.

Well said Lysais, I very much doubt any of the establishment boys in here will rush to counter your comment, Andrew Parker, has performed orchiectomy’s on the lot of them.
So they won’t stray from the narrative?
“It’s not a high explosive (now read the post to which you are replying)”
I didn’t say it was (now read the post to which you are replying).
Gunpowder produces white smoke. The video showed white smoke. Logic dictates that the explosion on the video was caused by gunpowder.
““Dr. Kelly no doubt also lived a rather pampered life, compared to the majority of people. I don’t see how that reduces the wrongness of what was done to him.”

Well said Lysias. I think you’d better explain it to Ros who’s struggling with his logic.
So Ros, in your case it’s a matter of sheer jealousy?!
The conviction of Putin for Sasha’s assassination ranks with Stalin’s Show Trials of the !930.
The current total miscarriage of justice never even considered the likely murderers Andrei Tolchachev and Andrei Sidelnikov, Boris Berezovsky’s set up of the Russian fall guys, why MI6, CIA and the Mossad wanted him killed, etc., ad nauseam.
Should remind Craig of what Central Asian dictators do to troublemakers.
“Well said Lysias. I think you’d better explain it to Ros who’s struggling with his logic.”

Hmmm…. Well Alcyone what I take from Lysais’s comment, is this, Lysais was pointing out how establishment boys like you can fawn over the demise of a royal breeder, yet you didn’t even bat an eyelid over the demise of Dr David Kelly.
It rather gives away your position, don’t you think?
Lysais, if you mean’t something else by your comment, I do apologise, for my presumption.
As for your comment at 16.20 Alcyone, jealousy no, I do however have a adversion to parasitical royals, in my opinion, they are a relic and a drain on society.
lets have a go at RoS, shall we? not say anything at all just whinge on about his wordy expressions.
Jeez Alcy, what massive contribution you made here today, try not to put words into people’s mouth.
“There’s absolutely no doubt it was done (like Nemtsov and scores of others) by the Queen personally, though assisted by Masons, Rothschilds, the Bilderberg Group*, the director-general of the BBC and three lizards from Planet Ickexxx.”
Ha ha, Ba’al. Very good.
And the Mossad’s murder of Royal Cadet Stephen Hilder to make its murder of Jurgen Mollemann look common lace was even more outrageous than Kelly’s assassination.
The USA, UK, and Israel are just killing machines.
When will it ever end?
When every Palestinian is dead or driven out of Palestine.
There’s a word for that.
Genocide.
