BNP Leader Nick Griffin On Question Time: Oddballs, Exposure And A Riot

nick-griffinNICK Griffin, monocular leader of the BNP, is to appear on BBC’s Question Time politics show. You can read what we think of it here and here. But what says the media? What says the media about the BBC’s decision to make its moribund TV show interesting?

The front pages:

“Why even the BNP leader’s wife thinks he is a weirdo” – Mail

“BBC chief: We were right to allow BNP on Question Time” – Guardian

“BNP: Thank you auntie for giving us such a boost” – The Times

“Riot fear over BNP talk show” – Daily Star

Nick Griffin The Man

Daily Mail, Dominic Carman: “DOMINIC CARMAN: A deeply disturbing encounter with the BNP’s Nick Griffin – and the wife who thinks he’s an oddball”

Jackie [Griffin’s wife] pulls no punches when it comes to her husband. The former district nurse later revealed some extraordinary home truths about the couple’s marriage.

“My mother thinks he could do with a damned good slap,’ she confided in me, adding: ‘Nick’s parents taught him that the sun rose and set in his a***. He never had to do anything at home and was told he was always right, he can do everything and he’s wonderful.”

They first met in Suffolk in 1978: she was 15, he was 19 and friends with her sister’s boyfriend.

“Nick was an oddball, never part of the gang,” she says.

Sing along: Nick Griffin is only one oddball, the other is in the…

After graduating in 1980, Griffin worked full time for the National Front.

“I thought he would grow out of it,” says Jackie. “I was earning money, he wasn’t – what a fool I was.”

The couple married in 1985. Joe Pearce, best man at their wedding, was imprisoned twice for inciting race hatred. The Griffins lived on state benefits for more than a year.

“I worked my a*** off trying to keep us going,’ Jackie moaned. “I’ve been… working to keep us going financially and bring up four children while he’s spent his time playing at stupid politics. To Nick, it’s all a game.’

Meanwhile, In Scotland…

The Herald: “BBC ‘bent over backwards’ to accommodate BNP leader”

Mike Russell, the Scottish Culture Minister, said of the decision to invite MEP Nick Griffin, the BNP leader, on to the flagship show tonight: “BBC managers in London must explain why they are bending over backwards to accommodate this overtly racist party, which has absolutely no standing north of the Border.”

The Barack Obama Nobel Peace Prize Jokes In Full

obama-nobel-prizeBARACK Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize for saying good things about peace. Barack Obama was nominated for the award in February 2009, just two weeks into his presidency. You want jokes?

Obama is more peaceful than Sima Samar, women’s rights campaigner in Afghanistan; Ingrid Betancourt – Liz Jones look-alike held hostage for six years; “Dr. Denis Mukwege – helps Congolese women who’ve been gang raped; Handicap International and Cluster Munition Coalition; Hu Jia – Chinese human rights worker serving a three-and-a-half-year prison term for ‘inciting subversion of state power'”; and Wei Jingsheng – endured 17 years in Chinese prisons for championing reforms.

And countless others people who have never tried to kill anyone.

Obama wins! And the media finds something to skewer Obama on and laugh at:

* “When you look at my record,” said SNL actor Fred Armisen as President Obama. “It’s very clear what I’ve done so far — and that is nothing.”

* Obama wins 2009 AKC “Best of Show”

* Today’s Nobel Peace Prize announcement raises the question: Is a negative caricature of President Obama now fully developed?

One thing that eluded Mr. Obama during his presidential campaign was that he was never successfully lampooned by the Republican Party…

Well, today’s announcement – while totally out of the president’s control – finally may have handed his critics their own “Mission Accomplished” moment Hot Air

* It’s the comedy gold that the blogosphere as well as the late night talk show hosts and “Saturday Night Live” will exploit to no end. In fact, there’s already a joke formula that’s exploded: fill in the blank with your favorite award (Oscar, American Idol, etc.) and say that President Obama has already won it without accomplishing anything to deserve itAce

Andrew Bolt has breaking news:

More sensational news from Norway: Barack Obama has won the 100 metres at the London Olympics, to be run in 2012.

IOC spokesman Che Riviera said the committee had decided to award Obama the gold medal after the president made a series of speeches in which he promised to run an astonishing 9.5 seconds.

Obama captured the world’s attention, and expressed values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world’s population,” Riviera said. “We would hope this will enhance what he is trying to do.”

Ezra Klein: Obama also awarded Nobel prize in chemistry. “He’s just got great chemistry,” says Nobel Committee.

* Barack Obama’s Teleprompter: Big Guy says Bill Clinton called and was gracious in defeat; offered to fly Kanye West over 4 the Nobel awards ceremony.

* They are handing him the Nobel Peace Prize because he isn’t George Bush.”

Obama is not the first to achieve peace in no time:

* There is Henry Kissinger. His receipt of the prize in 1973, in the wake of his war crimes against Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia, prompted Tom Lehrer to famously remark: “Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel Prize.”

And not forgetting:

A man is driving down a country road, when he spots a farmer standing in the middle of a huge field of grass. He pulls the car over to the side of the road and notices that the farmer is just standing there, doing nothing, looking at nothing.

The man gets out of the car, walks all the way out to the farmer and asks him, “Ah excuse me mister, but what are you doing?”

The farmer replies, “I’m trying to win a Nobel Prize.”

“How?” asks the man, puzzled.

“Well, I heard they give the Nobel Prize . . . to people who are out standing in their field.”

Importantly:

ktumulty: Has anyone asked Kanye West what he thinks of Obama winning the Nobel Peace Prize?

Well, have they..?

BNP Leader Nick Griffin Lampoons Himself

bnp3NICK Griffin , of the BNP, has not even taken the stand at the BBC’s Question Time and he is already losing his thread. Following the shocking news that war is not a place for extremists, Griffin of the cartoon tells us:

“Those Tory generals who today attacked the British National Party should remember that at the Nuremburg Trials, the politicians and generals accused of waging illegal aggressive wars were all charged — and hanged — together.

“Sir Richard and Sir Mike fall squarely into this bracket, and they must not think that they will escape culpability for pursuing the illegal wars in Iran and Afghanistan… These two gentlemen are Tories who have seen the traditional Conservative vote in the army, from private level up to senior officers, dissolve away and turn into BNP votes”.

US Secret Service Joins Barack Obama Death Cult

death-cult-obama-t-shirt11THE Barack Obama Death Cult grows by the day. The Boston Globe reports:

“The unprecedented number of death threats against President Obama, a rise in racist hate groups, and a new wave of antigovernment fervor threaten to overwhelm the US Secret Service, according to government officials and reports, raising new questions about the 144-year-old agency’s overall mission.”

The US secret Service says it is overwhelmed by threats against Obama that it cannot cope. Unless…

The report, which was provided to the Globe, said such a review should look at how money and staff are allocated, and whether some of the agency’s functions and workers should be transferred to the Treasury Department.

Yep. Money. It’s reminiscent of when Dame Eliza Manningham-Buller, then head of MI5, said her 2,800 spooks are at full stretch and are potentially unable to “stop the next attack”.

The BBC’s Question Time Makes BNP Leader Nick Griffin A Celebrity

bnp-nazis1HAVING invited BNP leader Nick Griffin to the big Question Time debate, the BBC has achieved its intended goal of getting the media to talk about its show.

Maybe if Question Time can develop its policy of featuring leaders of actual political parties, however odious they are, there will be no need to hire celebrities to sell politics to a slack-jawed audience.

Today’s update comes from former Army generals have written a letter warning that political extremists had no right to share the Armed Forces’ proud reputation.

War is no place for extremists!

The open letter is signed by former heads of the Army, General Sir Mike Jackson and General Sir Richard Dannatt. As Sky News notes:

The move follows the British National Party’s (BNP) tactic of using images of Winston Churchill and wartime insignia during recent European election campaigns.

Remember that picture of the Spitfire? As Anorak noted at the time:

“Battle for Britain,” bellows the legend. That’s a Spitfire soaring thought the skies, strafing the fascist scum. Hurrah! It’s a Romeo Foxtrot Delta Plane, as flown by Polish pilots in the great fight. Poles of the famous 303 Squadron of the RAF – the group made up of Polish airmen. The Kościuszko squadron that claimed 126 enemy kills (fascists) more than any other unit during the Battle of Britain.

Who says the BNP is not inclusive, it having embraced a Jewish hippy, a far-right American nutter, climate sceptics, anti-fascist fascists, a desk off a corridor in Brussels, break dancers, coppers, Poles, the kids and fools.

The top brass’s letter to the Times goes thus:

“The BNP is claiming that it has a better relationship with the Armed Forces than other political parties. How dare they use the image of the Army, in particular, to promote their policies. These people are beyond the pale.

Beyond the pale? An unfortunate choice of words, or may an attempt at a pun.

But if the BNP can be easily undone, it is with humour and ridicule. Treat them with the contempt you usually reserve for Labour and the Tories.

The BNP in cartoons.

Barack Obama’s Deceptive And Dishonest Tax Joke

BARACK Obama, a man who seems more bothered by image than substance, says he will not raise taxes. And then he gets elected and, well, enjoy this and the video. Hey, Joe The Plumber was right:

President Obama mounted a frontal assault on the insurance industry on Saturday, accusing it of using “deceptive and dishonest ads” to derail his health care legislation and threatening to strip the industry of its longstanding exemption from federal antitrust laws. In unusually harsh terms, Mr. Obama cast insurance companies as obstacles to change interested only in preserving their own “profits and bonuses” and willing to “bend the truth or break it” to stop his drive to remake the nation’s health care system. The president used his weekly radio and Internet address to challenge industry assertions that legislation will drive up premiums.

He says the Qur’an is a “fascist book”.

Russell Brand Appears On Question Time To Debate Ashley Cole, Nick Griffin And The BNP

brand-bnp-collettHow Russell Brand skewered the BNP’s Nazi Boy as the Dail Mail kicks the BBC, and Question Time invites Nick Griffin to the debate…

THE Daily Mail rarely misses a chance to wallop the BBC, and today delivers the news that two BNP Herrenvolk have created a “BBC storm” as they are “invited on Radio 1 to insult Ashley Cole”.

Overlooking the obvious reaction that an invitation to insult Ashley Cole is not needed, and that black, white, Nazi or Commie, we can all unite behind a common cause, we read on:

This is the BBC’s own full transcript of the Newsbeat interview:

Randle: Do you think it’s OK for people who aren’t white in this country to call themselves British?

Joey: Civic-ly British they are. You cannot say they are ethnically British. It’s denying our heritage. It’s taking that away from us.

Randle: At what point do they become ethnically British? How long do they have to be here?

Joey: Well, I think it would be an awfully long time before someone would become ethnically British.

Randle: So when you see someone like Ashley Cole play for England, are you happy to watch him?

Joey: If he wants to come to this country and he wants to live by our laws, pay into society, that’s fine.

Randle: But if he wanted to call himself British that would be a problem?

Joey: He cannot say that he’s ethnically British.

The Mail on Sunday has discovered the full background of the two ‘young BNP supporters’ identified by the BBC only as Joey, 24, and 28-year-old Mark.

Guardian Closely Examines Sarah Brown’s Seat Of Power

sarah-brownWE are waiting for Samantha Cameron to do a Sarah Brown, rising to the lectern to tell us that her husband is a really good bloke, that she made the right choice in marrying him, how each day he wakes to run the flag up his morning glory and gets on with the job of pained fretting and caring about you.

In the meantime, let’s enjoy this highlight from the Guardian’s Andy Beckett, whose opinion of Sarah Brown is:

Over the past year, as her husband and his government have struggled painfully and sunk in popularity, Sarah Brown has followed a startlingly different trajectory. From being an awkward, near-silent, old-fashioned political consort, she has metamorphosed into a truly modern public figure: talkative, empathetic, informal but infinitely connected, ubiquitous as any celebrity, an avid exploiter of new digital media, an expert assembler of charitable and political coalitions, and an expert blurrer of the lines between them. She has become arguably the most admired and powerful woman in Britain. She might even be the last hope for Labour.

Boris Johnson Exposes Jeremy Paxman’s BBC Agenda

matt-hackTHE Tory Party conference is much like the Labour Party Conference, only with better suits and broadcast by a BBC unable to hide its bias.

Before we see Jeremy Paxman’s hideous interview with London mayor Boris Johnson, in which Paxman looked like a sneery head boy sucking up to a more popular pupil while seeking to exert a superiority that was patently lacking, Tory Bear brings us this:

Sunny Hundal, head honcho of Liberal Conspiracy, says:

“There needs to be an increasing drive towards investigative blogging, finding news and digging up dirt on the opposition. Just writing opinion is no longer enough. Left-wing blogging has to focus on two things: collating and publishing news, and doing distributed investigative journalism. More on this another time.

Not only will it get dirty and partisan – I’d say that is exactly where we need to be.”

Dirty and partisan eh?

Last time Tory Bear heard anyone recommend that as a game plan it was our dear Derek, and that didn’t go too well.

Now for that interview, in which wealthy civil servant Paxman tries to pour scorn on David Cameron because he is, er, wealthy and therefore might actually understand how money works and its value:

Michelle Obama Tries For A Baby As Larry Craig’s Gay Obama Story Goes To Congress

obama-gayLARRY Sinclair says he had sex and did drugs with Barack Obama in 1999. He’s written about it on his book “Barack Obama & Larry Sinclair – Coke, Sex Lies & Murder”.

The title shows just how serious things are, with Craig putting his own name below Obama’s. Should the book sell well then look out for Larry Craig & Barack Obama – More, Coke, More Sex, More Lies & More Murder II.

Should that also be a hit, then Craig will surely set about creating a book that itself enters the Guinness Book of Records for the longest title and the most use of ampersands. So long will the title be that there will be another book needed for the actual copy.

It’s impressive stuff from Sinclair, who has self-published his first tome.

Now in “MICHELLE WINS”, the Enquirer tells us that Michelle Obama has succeeded in getting the book, er, ignored. Says Craig:

“I think it’s time to start exposing the truth in a less public way.”

Sarah Palin’s Signed X Box for Sale, Levi Johnston Goes Nuts

WHO wants an X Box singed by Sarah Palin? Right, you all do. Now, who wants an X box designed by Sarah Palin for $1.1million?

“The Sarah Palin Signed Autograph XBOX 360 Story:

My name is David Morrill. I live in Alberta Canada and I have always wanted to drive the Alaskan highway from my home near Edmonton Alberta, all the way to Alaska. This trip is about a 7000km / 4300mi round trip. I figured that since I was going up there anyway, I should try to see the most famous person from that state, so I timed my trip with the governors picnic in Wasilla. When the governors picnic took place, there were hordes of people trying to see her, but I pushed my way through the crowd to the front of the line. When I was in front of Sarah Palin, I told her that I had traveled three days to see her and asked her to sign my Xbox360. She said it was the most extravagant thing she had ever been asked to sign. I shook her hand, removed myself from the crowd, and then I packed up my Xbox360 and headed home. It was one of the greatest thrills of my life to have watched Sarah Palin on CNN, SNL, Youtube, and then to see her right in front of me. If you would like to learn more about me, you may click on my user ID.”

Levi Johnston must be kicking himself that he never asked Sarah plain to sign his nuts

Levi Johnston’s Nuts Are Sarah Palin’s Kill Of The Day

sarah-palin-levis-nutsLEVI. Playgirl mo-del Levi Johnston. “Now Levi Johnston does it with protection.” From dating Sarah Palin’s daughter Bristol Palin and given her a bay-bee, Levi is now the nuts of nuts.

The advert seems to be saying that to date a Palin you need to be mentally ill, or that if you spend too long in Alaska your testes become coated in an impervious rock-like substance that needs a huge minder to crack.

Poor Levi. He needs to worry not about the fans mobbing up but to listen out for the sound of helicopters and the scream “Pull!”

The company behind the advert, Wonderful Pistachios, invites nuts lovers:

Show us how you Get Crackin’ and you could win $25,000 and see your spot on TV!

Hear that Sarah Palin? All you need do is crack Levi’s nuts with the claws of that giant crap you keep in your wallet and you win enough money to watch the Olympics in Rio…

How Michelle Obama Rewrote Olympic History

obama7MICHELLE Obama proves that you don’t have to be George Bush to say stoopid things – you just need to say them and have them ignored by the mainstream media. Michelle Malkin observes:

From Michelle Obama’s failed pitch to the International Olympic Committee:

“Some of my best memories are sitting on my dad’s lap, cheering on Olga and Nadia, Carl Lewis, and others for their brilliance and perfection.”

If we take Lewis’s performances in the 1984 Olympics – and not his gold-winning shows in the Olympics of 1988 and 1992 – Michelle Obama would have been 20.

Gordon Brown Fixes Adam Boulton With A Paddington Bear Stare

brown-paddingtonHUGO Rifkind is writing on the Madness of Gordon Brown, a politican who has being paying heed to the master: Paddington Bear.

We are bullying Gordon Brown to mental collapse – We may regret our attitude to the Prime Minister once he’s gone.

Well, yes. as Anorak said when George Bush made his goodbyes and pushed the pull door to contentment, ‘You’ll miss him when he’s gone.’

And Bush was bullied wasn’t he, portrayed as a dunce, a thicko who kept reading as the Twin Towers collapsed. Channel 4 even fantasized about him being murdered. Says Hugo:

I started thinking it last weekend when Andrew Marr asked the PM, effectively, if he was on antidepressants. Setting aside the curious assumption in the question (that if we did have a depressed PM, it would somehow be better if he wasn’t taking anything), you have to wonder what Marr hoped to gain by asking it.

Well, that wasn’t the question that was asked. But if you can’t find an ounce of comedy in Gordon Brown – the last man to know – then you need to look again.

Old Mr Anorak’s Book Club: Ralph Nader’s Only The Rich Can Save Us

naderRALPH Nader’s has written a book. It’s called Only The Rich Can Save Us. It’s the book what he wrote. Paco notes:

Experiencing a colossal brain fart that no doubt left him with cerebral diverticulitis, Ralph Nader has written a 700-page “novel”, which is likely to trigger a flurry of orders from Borders and Barnes & Noble for steel-reinforced remainder tables.

Masochist Rob Long has read the book so that we don’t have to. Of course, if you think you’d enjoy watching Nader’s geeky, school-boy wet dream of socialist billionaire-worship unfold on the printed page, then this epic is just what you’ve been waiting for. Order now from Pacozon.com – while supplies last!

Mr Rob Long, everyone:

Here’s the bad news: Ralph Nader has written a novel. Here’s the good news: There’s no sex in it. Wait. That’s not strictly true. At the end of its 700 pages, one of the characters hooks up with Yoko Ono.
