Debunking the 'Countryside is Racist' Nonsense


In a world where everything from maths to milk is labelled "racist" by the perpetually offended, the latest entrant into this hall of absurdity is none other than the British countryside itself. A fresh report from the University of Leicester’s Centre for Hate Studies has declared rural England "overwhelmingly white" and in dire need of more halal food to combat supposed "rural racism." If you're scratching your head wondering how rolling hills, sheep farms, and quaint villages could possibly harbour bigotry, you're not alone. This piece of academic virtue-signalling isn't just misguided—it's a laughable attempt to impose urban multiculturalism on areas where it makes zero practical sense. Let's eviscerate this report point by point, exposing its flaws, ignoring real data, and highlighting why demands for halal meat in the sticks are nothing short of ridiculous.

What the 'Rural Racism Project' Actually Says – And Why It's Eye-Roll Worthy

Titled "The Rural Racism Project: Towards an Inclusive Countryside," this report—funded by the Leverhulme Trust and penned by academics like Prof Neil Chakraborti, Amy Clarke, and Prof Corinne Fowler—claims that ethnic minorities face "discomfort" and a "psychological burden" in rural areas because they're "predominantly white spaces." Based on interviews with just 115 people, it argues that traditional pub culture and "monocultural customs" are exclusionary, with microaggressions like staring or name-calling allegedly rampant. The solution? More halal and kosher food options, prayer spaces, and "cultural sensitivity" training for rural businesses. As the report pompously states, "the availability of halal food or spaces for prayer could make a significant difference in whether people feel comfortable visiting the countryside."

Sounds reasonable at first glance? Hardly. This isn't about genuine inclusion; it's about fabricating problems where none exist to justify endless "sustained inclusion efforts." The report frames demographic changes as a "threat to the stable and enduring norm of rural identity" rather than an enrichment, but conveniently ignores that over 90% of rural UK residents are white—because, you know, it's the countryside, not downtown London. Demanding halal meat in villages with populations smaller than a city block is like insisting on vegan options at a steakhouse—impractical and out of touch with market realities.

The Glaring Flaws: Anecdotes Over Data, Division Over Unity

Let's cut to the chase: This report is built on shaky ground. It relies on "collating anecdotes" from a tiny sample size, shying away from hard data that contradicts its narrative. Government hate crime statistics actually show an inverse relationship between rurality and racist incidents—meaning urban areas have far more problems. Tim Bonner of the Countryside Alliance nails it: "The narrative that rural communities are inherently more racist than urban ones is just nonsense." If racism is "worsening" in the countryside, where's the evidence beyond cherry-picked stories?

Moreover, the halal meat demand reeks of hypocrisy. As critics point out, businesses aren't stupid—they cater to demand. In tiny rural hamlets, there's simply no market for specialised halal butchers, just like you won't find a kosher deli in every corner pub. Imagine flipping the script: A report demanding more pork pies and ale in predominantly Muslim neighbourhoods to make white Brits feel "included." It'd be rightly dismissed as absurd. Yet here, academics are pushing for "thoughtful adaptation" that burdens rural folk with unnecessary changes. Gavin Rice from the Onward think tank sums it up: Calling predominantly white areas racist is unreasonable—would we say the same about "too black" or "too Asian" spaces?

This isn't progress; it's divisive drivel that paints rural residents as backward bigots for simply existing in their own communities. It echoes earlier nonsense from Wildlife and Countryside Link, which branded the countryside a "racist, colonial" white space. As one black farmer put it back in 2024, such claims are "dangerous nonsense."

Public Backlash: From X Roasts to Real-World Ridicule

The internet isn't buying it. On X (formerly Twitter), users have eviscerated the report with sarcasm and common sense. One post quipped, "can we see the data that in his eyes makes the countryside racist its not racist to dislike the way their meat is killed, they are racist by not eating bacon." Another: "How the hell is the countryside racist! 😂" And let's not forget the hypothetical reversals: "Now imagine 'rural India is too brown & needs more full English breakfasts' 🤡🌍" Even BBC presenter Nihal Arthanayake criticised similar claims, saying don't tie the outdoors to "racist colonial legacies."

Daily Sceptic readers piled on, calling for defunding universities and labelling the authors "anti-white racists" and "grifters." One comment: "Let’s see if we can find a study conducted in any predominantly Muslim country that would conclude that there should be more places serving alcohol and pork so that European visitors and residents don’t feel ‘discomfort and burden’?" Spot on—the double standard is glaring.

Why This Matters: The Broader Assault on British Identity

This report isn't isolated; it's part of a pattern where woke academics weaponise "racism" to erode traditional British culture. From the National Trust's colonial audits to museums warning that countryside paintings evoke "nationalist feelings," it's all about guilt-tripping the majority into self-erasure. Rural England isn't racist—it's rural. Forcing halal meat or prayer rooms ignores economic viability and smacks of cultural imperialism in reverse.

In conclusion, the 'Countryside is Racist' report is peak absurdity: A taxpayer-funded diatribe that invents problems, ignores facts, and demands impractical fixes. It's not about helping minorities—it's about dividing society and justifying more "hate studies" grants. If you love the British countryside as it is, push back against this nonsense. After all, the real exclusion here is of common sense. Share this if you're tired of the woke war on rural life.

Auntie's Racist Misogynistic Plague


 

Auntie isn't exactly covering herself in glory these days.

She has now decreed that the medieval plague was racist and misogynistic.

She neglects to mention that:

1 Life in medieval Europe was pretty shitty for most people

2 There were, at most, a handful of non white people living in medieval England at that time.

Why let facts get in the way of Auntie's agenda?

Nanny Bans "Field" - It's Racist!


 

A bunch of wankers in America have decreed that the word "field" is racist.

The word "field" has been declared to have racist connotations and will no longer be used in the University of Southern California’s school of social work.

It will be removed from the curriculum and academic references such as "field of study" will instead be replaced  by the word "practicum".

In a letter explaining the decision the University of Southern California’s school of social work said: 

"This change supports anti-racist social work practice by replacing language that would be considered anti-Black or anti-immigrant in favour of inclusive language.

Language can be powerful, and phrases such as ‘going into the field’ or ‘field work’ maybe have connotations for descendants of slavery and immigrant workers that are not benign.”

This is of course deranged bollocks, as white people have also worked in fields ever since farming was invented.

Nanny Bans Vaginas and Renames Them "Front Holes"


As per Healthline as quoted by The Cauldron Pool:
"For the purpose of this guide, we’ll refer to the vagina as the ‘front hole’ instead of solely using the medical term ‘vagina.’ This is gender-inclusive language."
Unsurprisingly Healthline have been ridiculed for this nonsense therefore, unsurprisingly, they have revised their article:
"For the purpose of this guide, we’ve chosen to include alternative words for readers to use for their genitals. For example, some trans men choose to use the words ‘front hole’ or ‘internal genital’ instead of ‘vagina.’

Global Warming Solved!


Those who believe in global warming must be really delighted that world leaders have manged to save the planet, in the climate change deal reached this weekend in Paris.

ROFLMAO!

In the unlikely event that mankind (as opposed to nature/solar activity etc) has a major hand in climatic changes (eg warming or freezing) do people really think that countries such as China, India, USA etc are going to cut back on their emissions and stick to the agreement?

Bollocks Research - Smiling is Sexist


In a stunning piece of bollocks "research" that on the scale of 1 to 10 of bollocks, hits 20, some bods in the USA have concluded that manners are every bit as sexist as rudeness.

The "research" was carried out on a staggering 27 pairs of undergraduates (yes 54 people!), that's most certainly a statistically reliable number of people on which to conduct "research".

The "research" concluded that men who open doors for women are as guilty of sexism as those who are rude to them. Psychologists found that a friendly or chivalrous attitude can mask chauvinistic and patronising views, because the men see females as weak creatures in need of their protection.

Psychologist Jin Goh of Northeastern University, Boston, is quoted by the Telegraph:
"While many people are sensitive to sexist verbal offences, they may not readily associate sexism with warmth and friendliness. 
Unless sexism is understood as having both hostile and benevolent properties, the insidious nature of benevolent sexism will continue to be one of the driving forces behind gender inequality in our society."
For good measure, seemingly smiling is also sexist!
"those who displayed a benevolent sexism were considered more approachable, warmer, friendlier and more likely to smile."
This would be laughable, if it were not for the fact that good money has been wasted on this shite!

Nanny's League Tables Are Bollocks


Kudos to Nanny for managing to screw up even further her school league table system, that was already regarded by many (including Nanny herself) as being bollocks.

Nanny, in an attempt to make exams etc more "challenging" and "relevant", has altered what goes into her league tables.

Unfortunately, one type of qualifications that are excluded are International GCSEs. Which is ironic, because these are regarded as being more demanding and challenging than UK GCSEs.

The result being that those schools who seek to stretch their pupils by having them sit IGCSEs find their results excluded from the table.

Step forward Britain's leading independent schools, that now find themselves at the bottom of the table. My own alma mater (Dulwich) indeed resides at a leisurely 3864 towards the bottom of the table.

In short the table is bollocks!

Now if only Nanny hadn't got rid of O and A levels we wouldn't be in this mess, but hey hoh!

Nanny Declares Tom and Jerry Racist


In an absurd piece of Nannyism Amazon Prime Inatsnat Video has declared that Tom and Gerry cartoons are racist and, as such, now issues a warning.

Tom and Gerry, made many moons ago, sometimes featured a coloured maid and in later years an Irish maid. Despite the fact that for some households of the era this was the norm, Amazon have decreed it to be racist.

It is ironic, given that current TV sitcoms etc regularly feature South American maids 9whrein the "joke" is often their inability to communicate with their employers).

Will Amazon be issuing a racist warning about these programmes too?

Come to think of it, will Amazon be issuing a warning about all films etc featuring non white members of staff; eg Gone With The Wind, Roots, The Fresh Prince of Bel Air etc?

Complete bollocks!

Nanny's Bollocks Science

I see that Nanny has conducted some more "scientific research" which is in effect bollocks, that concludes that people who eat three or more slices of white bread a day are more likely to be obese.

Researchers in Spain found graduates who ate three slices of white bread per day were 40% more likely to be obese or overweight five years later when compared with people who ate it once a week.
The findings were presented at the European Congress on Obesity in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Here's why this study is bollocks....it totally ignores the other crap that these people eat/drink or put on their white bread.

White bread itself is not the cause of obesity. Obesity is caused by taking in more calories on a daily basis than you burn off.

In other "research" it seems that women who sleep in rooms that are not totally dark "may" be more prone to weight gain than those who don't.

What utter bollocks!

Booze Matters - Just a Little Bit More

I am gemused to see that Nanny (remember folks MPs get to drink tax subsidised booze) still has a bee in her bonnet about how much we drink.

I am therefore hugely gemused to see that she has now started airing TV adverts that recommend that we drink "just a little bit more".

Hear hear hear!!

What?

What's that you say?

The adverts are warning us of the dangers of drinking "just a little bit more"?

Well that's a bit stupid isn't it?

An advert drawing our attention to drinking "just a little bit more" is in fact going to tempt us to drink "just a little bit more" isn't it?

Ho Hum, seemingly Nanny is of the view that these adverts will not tempt us to drink "just a little bit more" and is trying to warn us of the increased risks of mouth cancer from booze.

Will Nanny's MPs be giving up their subsidised booze then, in the face of this danger?

No, I thought not!

Wrt the risk of getting mouth cancer, here's the reality according to Cancer Research:

- The ACTUAL risk of contracting mouth cancer is approximately 8 in 100,000


That means that there is is a 99.992% chance that you WON'T get mouth cancer.

Drinking two glasses of wine per day reduces the risk that you WON'T get mouth cancer to 99.976%

As ever with Nanny, and the cretins in the media and House of Commons, the concept of risk has been distorted from almost zero chance to "absolutely definite" merely to support a political agenda.

This of course makes a mockery of all government health warnings, as no one will believe them anymore!

Nanny's Joyless Christmas



Tis soon the season to be merry (even if the economy is tanking, various countries around the world are squaring up to each other and several large European banks may well fall over).

As such, it should come as no surprise at all to anyone who regularly follows this site to learn that Nanny is doing her best to put the kibosh on any possible merriment.

Nanny has decided that a newly recorded Christmas special of Thomas The Tank Engine (created by the Rev W Awdry) should omit any reference to Christmas

The new episode "Keeping Up With James" (where the trains compete to carry Christmas presents) has all mentions of Christmas removed, instead the phrase "the winter holidays" is used along with other "cheery" expressions such as "holiday tree".

For fark's sake!

Irrespective of whether you are a Christian, Atheist, Muslim or worshipper of green men from Mars, we all know that there is a festival/celebration called "Christmas" (just as we know about Eid, Hanukkah etc etc). It is completely daft to try to expunge references to something (ie the celebration, rather than the event that the celebration is referring to) that is a fact.

Hit Entertainment, which is behind the show, claims that references to Christmas were removed because the DVD on which it featured was designed to be sold all the year round. 
Well that is complete bollocks for a start!
Have these people never sat down to watch the BBC in the height of Summer, only to be confronted with end to end repeats of the Christmas episodes of the Two Ronnies and Morecambe and Wise show etc?

What about the song and movie "White Christmas", those didn't do so badly did they?
All in all it is a bollocks idea!

Another Load of Old Bollocks

BS
I am gemused to see that another piece of "research" promulgated by Nanny as "fact" appears now to be bollocks.

You recall that Nanny has been banging on a lot about "hydration" and making sure we drink several (8 to be precise) glasses of water a day?

Well my old muckers it turns out that this may in fact be unnecessary, and that humans can (if they eat sensibly and drink sensibly) hydrate themselves perfectly well without having to down extra glasses of water each day.

Dr Margaret McCartney, a GP from Glasgow, wrote in the BMJ stating (what most doctors already know) there is no scientific evidence that we need so much extra water.

How is that this myth about needing 8 glasses a day keeps getting spewed forth. Well it seems that some companies, such as Danone, have been pushing "research" to Nanny that supports the myth and have sponsored the 8 a day concept.

Danone?

Yes, that's right, they own several well known brands of bottled water.

Aha!

Licenced To Smoke II

Licenced To Smoke IIThose of you with reasonably unaddled brains may well recall that, back in October, I warned you all of Nanny's plans to issue licences to people who wished to smoke.

The loon behind those plans was Professor Julian Le Grand.

Well, some five months on, the professor (who, much like syphilis, refuses to go away) is making national headlines.

In a rare departure from NKB policy here is a link to the BBC story.

Here is why the idea is bollocks (aside from the very obvious point that it is not Nanny's place to do this):

1 Enforcing it would be almost impossible.

2 People with a permit would simply buy fags for their mates who don't have a permit.

3 It would require a special force of smoking permit inspectors to check on people who were seen smoking in the street.

4 In order for each smoker to see their GP every year, to have their permit renewed, it would take up 25 million appointments annually and rob millions of sick people of the chance of seeing their doctor.

Wrt Nanny's use of the phrase "stakeholders".

What a load of mumbo jumbo bureaucratic double speak shite.

Why don't these tossers speak English?

Bollocks

Bollocks
Oh dear it seems that Nanny's persistent warnings about the dangers of sun tanning are in fact bollocks.

Scientists at King's College London have found that healthy levels of vitamin D may help to slow the ageing process, and protect against age-related diseases.

Guess where we get a good dose of vitamin D from?

Yes, that's right, the sun.

In summer much of the vitamin D we need is created by a reaction in the skin powered by sunlight. In the darker winter months vitamin D comes largely from food such as cod liver oil and mackerel.

Among the most reliable measures of a person's age are telomeres, the lengths of genetic material that cap the free ends of DNA in a cell. With age, the telomeres shorten and the DNA becomes more unstable until eventually the cell dies. The study found that those with the highest vitamin levels had significantly longer telomeres - equivalent to five years of normal ageing - than those showing the lowest vitamin D scores.

Tim Spector, a co-author of the paper, said:

"Although it might sound absurd,

it's possible that the same sunshine

which may increase our risk of skin cancer

may also have a healthy effect on

the ageing process in general
."

The day I start to follow the advice of Nanny and her doctors will be my last day on this planet.

I wonder what other advice Nanny has given us is in fact wrong?

Oh, wait a minute, most of it!

Wasting Our Money

Wasting Our Money
Nanny loves to spend money on her pet projects and ill thought out schemes, especially when its our money.

The National Audit Office (NAO) has issued a damning report on Nanny's pathfinder housing market renewal programme, launched in 2002 by our old friend the Smooth Talking Bar Steward.

Bollocks To The Bar Steward

The "plan" was designed to revive nine areas in the Midlands and the North of England, which had suffered long-standing deprivation.

Unfortunately, as with so many of Nanny's "plans", it was utter bollocks.

The NAO found that despite £2.2BN of OUR money being committed to the scheme, it could find no "causal" link between pathfinder activity and improvements in housing markets.

That's accountant/audit speak for saying that it didn't work.

Although conditions had improved in some neighbourhoods, in others it had led to increased stress in the short term.

Under the programme, 40,000 homes have been refurbished and 1,100 new homes built. About 10,200 properties have also been demolished. In a number of areas there has been opposition to demolition projects and the original plans to demolish 90,000 properties have been reduced to 57,100.

Sir John Bourn departing head of the NAO (who managed to spend a large sum of our money on his and his wife's personal "business" expenses...that's another story folks, which I will cover at a later date) said:

"Housing market renewal is a radical programme

but it is a high-risk approach.

While there have been physical improvements

in some neighbourhoods, it is unclear whether

intervention itself has led to improvement

in the problems of low demand.

And in some cases intervention has

exacerbated problems in the short-term
."

Nanny doesn't get it:
  • You cannot create demand, where there is none to be created.


  • You cannot buck the market.


  • You cannot force people to live in areas that they don't want to live in, unless of course you are a dictatorship.


  • Throwing money at a problem does not work.
However, it's not Nanny's money and she doesn't give a fark!

Nanny Bans Santa

Nanny Bans Santa
Nanny, as we all know, hates fat people. In her view they are slow witted, lazy, greedy and cost far too much to keep alive.

Far better that everyone looks like Nanny, a shrivelled bitter excuse for a human being with no "joie de vivre".

Anyhoo, Nanny has realised that people are best manipulated by the use of role models. As such she knows that with the coming season of gorging and drinking soon to be upon us (Christmas), she needs to tackle the hero of indulgence and jollity ie Santa.

When Nanny looks at Santa, she does not see a jolly gentleman in a red suit, she sees a fat person who is far too happy for his own good. Therefore she is putting him on an enforced diet.

Santa has been told to lose weight, or be banned from shopping centres at Christmas. Yes I kid you not, Nanny doesn't want children sitting on the laps of fat red faced men anymore; she wants them sitting on the laps of gaunt pasty faced men.

Nanny's lackeys at the Bluewater shopping centre in Greenhithe, have set up a Santa boot camp; where Santa will work out.

Fiona Campbell-Reilly, spokeswoman at the shopping centre, said:

"Santa has been around for years,

but society has changed and our Santa needs to reflect this.

Bluewater's Santa Boot Camp is getting Santa

in shape and setting a good example

to children who idolise him.

He will still be the same lovable jolly man,

but will be fitter and healthier
."

Utter bollocks!

Society has not changed, Nanny is trying to change society; that is not the same thing.

Christmas is for wants, not needs!

Dick Headed Useless Knobheads

Dick Headed Useless Knobheads
Normally I would consider awarding my prestigious "Prats of The Week" Award in a case like this. However, having re read it I can only conclude that Broxbourne council has gone way beyond the "prat" stage.

Stan and Jean Chatterton, of Hoddesdon, Herts, have regularly cleaned up fallen crab apples from the grass verge outside their home. They do this in order to prevent them going rotten and becoming a hazard.

Unfortunately, they have reckoned without the interfering jackboot of the local council.

Why do we put up with these useless bodies?

What good do they actually do?

Anyhoo, Broxbourne council have issued an edict to Mr and Mrs Chatterton telling them to stop cleaning up the verge; because if they kept the area tidy themselves, the local authority's cleaning contractors would not know how often to cut the grass.

Eh???

No, I don't understand that either!

Mrs Chatterton said:

"We have been told off for keeping it tidy.

I just don't understand it
."

Broxbourne council's edict states:

"Due to the maintenance being carried out by yourself,

we are unable to monitor the frequency

we need to cut the area.

We therefore ask if you would refrain

from maintaining this land from now on
."

Total bollocks!

As Mr Chatterton says, the council can simply look at the grass elsewhere to see when they need to cut it.

Clearly the reason stated by the council is utter knobheaded bollocks. The real reason is probably that the Chattertons may now need public liability insurance to carry on maintaining the verge, and the council are too shit scared to admit this.

Useless dick headed knobheads!

Drop the council a note and tell them I said hi: Knobheads.
