1. Thread. BBC pedophile statue attacked again by same man, this time with Spiderman mask. BBC had helpfully put scaffolding up to repair the statue from the last time over a year ago... #EricGill #BBC #pedobeeb #pedoBBC #ArielandProspero #spiderman ImageImage
2. Last year I compiled a thread which covered this issue comprehensively #spiderman #bbc #pedoBBC Image
3. This post goes into depth on the statue, the pedo sculptor, the pedo BBC Director who commissioned it all the issues and the BBC - Pedos and Propaganda cathyfox.wordpress.com/2022/01/17/ped… #ericgill #bbc #pedobeeb #pedoBBC

Looking a little closer at CHIMES gives us further insight into London, specifically.. HAMPSTEAD..

'Lord Tim Bell began his career in 1959 at Colman Prentis and Varley & after stints with Hobson Bates and Geers Gross, he helped form Saatchi & Saatchi in 1970

He later co-founded Bell Pottinger which became CHIME Comms when it was floated on the London stock exchange'

1/ Been an awful week for #Tories in Westminster but in real elections in the real world #Labour has been crashing and burning. OK, so local by elections aren't individually representative of national trends...
2/ But taken together, the results show a clear swing AGAINST #Labour that isn't being picked up in opinion polls between them.
If you have to choose, go by the actual results cast in real elections.
3/ How to explain the discrepancy? Could be that a lot of the Tory "don't knows" who've given #Starmer his lead are in fact voting Tory when they turn out. Of course, young people are traditionally more likely to vote #Labour and less likely to vote in by-elections. That said...

An FOI shows #Stonewall in #NorthernIreland got the NI Civil Service to remove the words 'mother' and 'woman' from their maternity policies. @StephenNolan you covered this re Scotland; now it's here too. Doc 5 in FOI reply:

whatdotheyknow.com/request/819001…
Left column is #Stonewall's recommendations to remove 'woman', 'her', etc; right column is NICS HR response.

1/ To call this "full fact" is misleading. It omits that, prior to the conclusion of the investigation #Starmer commissioned into his own CPS, he claimed he'd been assured that that "the decisions were the right decisions based on the information and evidence then available"
2/ Later, investigations concluded this claim to have been incorrect and that "mistakes were made". justiceinspectorates.gov.uk/hmicfrs/media/…
3/ Moreover, the report makes clear that there were "no insurmountable barriers to prosecution" and that an explanation as to why charges were not brought as only been offered "in part", laying the most of the blame on police...

1./ It's great to see journalists defending Caroline Lowbridge's shocking piece on the sexual harassment of lesbians. It's been defended by the @BBC, quite rightly. Those demanding it ignore this issue are asking the BBC to cover up a scandal. No wonder #Savile comes to mind.👇
2./ What's so disgusting is the majority of those signing the letter of complaint to @BBC know full well this scandal is real. As @ALLIANCELGB have pointed out the concern of lesbians about a minority of transwomen has long been an open secret. 👇
3./ So YES it's fair to compare this cover-up to the Savile case because in both managers at the BBC were pressured to keep quiet. Fortunately, the BBC has now courageously found its voice. The complainers though are morally as bankrupt as Savile's disgraceful enablers.

10 years ago Sir Jimmy #Savile had just died & BBC News was preparing state funeral type coverage of his memorial service. Meanwhile in the Newsnight office myself, the brilliant, brave (& very funny) Liz MacKean & @hamlivingston were preparing to expose..
theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/n…
him as a monster. Poppy (who wrote this piece) was working with Liz on another project at the time & saw what happened. I suppose the main revelation is that it was Liz who leaked the BBC's cover up to the press. At the time I (wrongly) thought it was Mark Williams Thomas...
In retrospect Liz did the right thing. The BBC thought it was me & a senior press officer sent emails saying he would "drip poison about Meirion's suspected role". How you even keep your job after putting stuff like that in emails is a question only BBC management can answer...
