:haha:

I’ll be watching

It's a shame Lineker referred to that particular example because it's such a minefield but in general he's right they are using inflammatory language.

My hope - and guess - is he'll return once they reach some kind of understanding, but one thing is without doubt, the BBC is now a Tory mouthpiece and little more

The irony is that those on the right will continue to call it "left-wing" until Dominic Raab is presenting every news bulletin

This sad little country's getting nastier by the week

If Lineker had said that irresponsible government rhetoric was inflaming passions and it was arguably partly responsible for instances like Knowsley or the Dover Migrant centre last year…he’d have made a point that was accurate. But because he’s not very intelligent, he goes full Hitler (you should never go full Hitler)

The Government is not interested in changing the BBC editorial output, it’s more interested in being able to show that the organisation is an example of an elitist institution that is out of touch with the British people. It’s the same shit they do when they harp on about lefty lawyers confounding them over Rwanda (never mind that the agreement with Rwanda allows for sending over 1,000 people in a five year period which isn’t really doing anything to address the migrant situation)

It’s the rhetoric that populist right wing governments use by creating a division between the out of touch liberal lefties and the ordinary salt of the earth people. It’s so transparent it’s actually amusing…(it’s why they made that gobshite Lee Anderson deputy chairman). It’s an admission that they can’t win an election on their record of governing so they’ve got to indulge in full on culture war.

The problem is, it’s often successful because the liberal lefty lot are often so stupid, self important and righteously indignant.

Revolution incoming... :popcorn:
