Best of the Web: Top BBC presenter paid for 'worst' class of child rape footage, public outcry over 'lenient' 6 month suspended sentence

The attorney general is coming under pressure to ask for a legal review of the suspended sentence handed to former BBC presenter Huw Edwards.

Reform UK deputy leader Richard Tice has told The Independent that he is writing to Richard Hermer asking him to appeal the six-month suspended sentence for the disgraced BBC personality who previously admitted three charges of "making" indecent photographs.

The court heard that the 63-year-old paid up to £1,500 to Alex Williams, 25, who sent Edwards 41 illegal images, seven of which were of category A, the very worst kind.

Comment: The following are just a few articles detailing the BBC and its connections with, and protection of, predators, and, in some instances, how it seems to have facilitated their access to children:

The UK's 'flagship' TV news anchor for almost 40 years, the BBC's Huw Edwards, seen here advising children on what it takes to become a man of such outstanding moral authority as himself, trusted by multiple millions of people to believe whatever he tells them, has just been convicted of paying for child rape images. (Mind you, he's not going to prison, and he's still getting his TV licence-funded pension.)
How the BBC reported on the story is a rather sick, and sinister, parody of itself:

Billionaire music manager Diddy finally jailed on sex trafficking and racketeering indictment

Sean 'Diddy' Combs was arrested Monday night in New York City following an indictment from a grand jury. Pictured in September 2023
Sean "Diddy" Combs headed to jail Tuesday to await trial in a federal sex trafficking case that accuses him of presiding over a sordid empire of sexual crimes protected by blackmail and shocking acts of violence.

The music mogul is charged with racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. The indictment against him lists allegations that go back to 2008.

He's accused of inducing female victims and male sex workers into drugged-up, sometimes dayslong sexual performances dubbed "Freak Offs." The indictment also refers obliquely to an attack on his former girlfriend, the R&B singer Cassie, that was captured on video.

Comment: The video below provides some real insight into his crimes, many details MSM outlet AP fails to mention, as well as the broader implications.

Following that is one with entertainer Kat Williams who, at least a year before any of this started, sounded the alarm about Diddy's criminality, as well as the sinister corruption, abuse, blackmail, hedonism, and so on, plaguing Hollywood. He was seemingly one of a few who dared to speak out. More recently, just prior to the first lawsuit, Williams' announced that in 2024 these kinds of secrets would be exposed:

50% of prostitutes in Germany's brothels are Ukrainians fleeing the war - Welt

Half of the prostitutes in brothels in Germany are Ukrainian. This is stated by the publication "Welt".

Journalists quote a social worker in charge of prostitutes named Mia:
"Previously, Ukrainian women were little represented in this environment. Most of the women we work with in Berlin actually come from Eastern Europe: Bulgaria, Romania and Hungary, and now with Ukraine. In brothels now fifty percent, I would say. There are a lot of very young women who came here because of the war."

Comment: Meanwhile the Ukrainians at home are having to dodge the conscription kidnappers, organ harvesters, child and human traffickers, surrogacy farms, and if they're lucky enough to sidestep those, then they're watching men of all ages get dragged to certain death in the meat grinder, and their politicians, presided over by an unelected president, bilk the country of every penny it has, and sell off the best of what remains, such as incredibly fertile farm land, to Western multinational corporations.

With many millions of Ukrainians abroad, one would imagine that if the truth of the West's war on Russia comes to light, they won't feel very position towards their Western 'hosts':

Shrinking island, vanishing polar bears — the climate scare stories that turn out to be false

tuvalu island land mass increase
© REUTERS/Kirsty NeedhamAccording to studies, the land mass of the island of Tuvalu is increasing -- despite past concerns about it sinking due to climate change.
Looking back on more than 20 years of climate agitation, two themes emerge: a stubborn unwillingness by campaigners to acknowledge any inconvenient science, and ever-shifting favorite stories, first elevated and then dropped by the wayside.

The one constant: a fixation on scaring the public, which has in turn shaped bad climate policies.

At the start of this century, the polar bear was the emblem of climate apocalypse.

Protesters dressed as polar bears, while Al Gore's hit 2006 film "An Inconvenient Truth" showed us a sad, animated polar bear floating away to its death.

US media merged with intelligence services long ago - RT editor-in-chief

Margarita Simonyan
The "freedom of speech" the US trumpets applies only to those who support official narratives and obey instructions from its intelligence services, RT editor-in-chief Margarita Simonyan has said, following the latest crackdown by Washington on Russian media.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced new sanctions against the news outlet on Friday, accusing it of engaging in "covert influence activities" and "functioning as a de facto arm of Russian intelligence." Earlier in September, Washington imposed sanctions on Simonyan and three other senior RT employees over alleged attempts to influence the 2024 US presidential election.

Simonyan asserted that the latest attack on Russian media is a clear effort to clamp down on the information space ahead of the November vote.

Grocery rationing within four years

rationed
There is a lack of public comment and debate about Kamala Harris's call for price controls on groceries and rents, the most stunning and frightening policy proposal made in my lifetime.

Immediately, of course, people will reply that she is not for price controls as such. It is only a limit on "gouging" (which she variously calls "gauging") on grocery prices. As for rents, it's only for larger-scale corporations with many units.

This is nonsense. If there really are national price-gouging police running around, every single seller of groceries, from small convenience stores to farmers' markets to chain stores, will be vulnerable. No one wants the investigation so they will comply with de facto controls. No one knows for sure what gouging is.

Don Boudreaux is correct:
"A government that threatens to punish merchants for selling at nominal prices higher than deemed appropriate by government clearly intends to control prices. It's no surprise, therefore, that economists routinely analyze prohibitions against so-called 'price gouging' using exactly the same tools they use to analyze other forms of price controls."

Russian Collusion? The Tenet Media psy-op seeks to demonize and de-legitimize Western alternative media sources

Pool and Rubin
As a liberty writer and economist I have been working within the alternative media for almost 20 years now. I was there at the inception of what we consider the modern counter-media movement, when a scattering of radio hosts, writers and video bloggers started to come together to create perhaps the greatest unsung information revolution in decades. It was this era in which the mainstream corporate news started to lose their audience by the millions.

This was also the advent of the Ron Paul movement and the return of a more true conservatism that would eventually shake up the Republican Party and the "Uniparty" paradigm. Neo-cons are not conservatives, they are leftists and globalists in disguise. We all know that now, but back then it was an uphill struggle to get the average conservative voter to understand they were being duped. Today, most Neo-cons are abandoning the Republican Party to vote for Kamala Harris.

Sour Note: Taylor Swift's endorsement of Harris backfires as more voters turn to Trump

taylor swift
Taylor Swift's post-debate endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, appears to have completely backfired. A new post-debate poll from YouGov released Saturday found that while 8% of voters said Swift's endorsement made them "somewhat" or "much more likely" to support the Democratic ticket, a significant 20% said they are "somewhat" or "much less likely" to vote for former President Donald Trump's opponent after Swift spoke out.

The majority of respondents, however - 66% - said Swift's high-profile endorsement made no difference in how they will vote in the upcoming November election, according to the NY Post.

The Grammy-winning artist made waves on Instagram to her 283 million followers shortly after Tuesday night's presidential debate, stating, "I've done my research, and I've made my choice." She encouraged her followers to do the same, emphasizing that "the choice is yours to make." Swift praised Harris as "a steady-handed, gifted leader" who could lead with "calm and not chaos."

Comment: Here's what The Babylon Bee had to say:


Is Swift a shill for the PTB? Mike Benz certainly thinks so:

Man humiliates alleged FBI agents and sends them fleeing after they show up at his house to confront him over a social media post

There has never been a more critical time in America for citizens to understand and exercise their Constitutional rights. One man in New Hampshire proved this knowledge is invaluable after the Biden-Harris regime apparently attempted to turn him into a criminal.

Jeremy Kauffman, an entrepreneur and Libertarian political activist, was visited at his home Monday by two men claiming to be FBI agents regarding an unspecified X post he made. When he asks them who they are, the bald person claims he's "Donald from the FBI in New Hampshire," which understandably does not satisfy Kauffman, who wants full identification.

The bald man then demands Kauffman stop recording the encounter, which Kauffman refuses to do, citing his 1st Amendment right. He then asks the younger-looking and full-haired person for his name. He declines while also asking Kauffman to stop recording, which Kauffman again refuses.

Kauffman next lays down an ultimatum: Either show me your name and ID or walk away. The full-haired alleged agent sheepishly says they want to talk to him while the bald man attempts to pass off his supposed badge as identification.

Russia: 13-year-old boy goes on rampage at school with hammer and knife, multiple children wounded

The scene is sealed off after the National Guard were brought in to stop the rampage
A 13-year-old schoolboy slit his classmate's throat and wounded at least four people during a rampage with a hammer, knife and air pistol in Russia this morning.

Suspect Roman G was arrested after the vicious attack, in which a pupil entered the school in Chelyabinsk and began 'randomly beating up his peers'.

A girl was rushed to hospital in serious condition and was undergoing surgery to save her life after she had her throat cut and was hit on the head with a hammer.

Comment: It just goes to show that, despite Russia not suffering the same severe social and cultural problems that most Western nations are being overwhelmed by, unfortunately the malaise, and those vulnerable to it, seems to be a global phenomenon:
