Funny how he keeps cropping up here,
crowing about things that will line his pockets,
before the journalists leap in to defend him.

The middle class love showing off and reminding disabled people what is out of reach for most of us. Even before I was unable to work full time, I couldn't afford to have the sort of job this prick has, I decided to spend my life looking after peope and that doesn't pay quite as well as skiing.

Taking asylum seekers jewellery is a hardy Labour trope.
In 1999 Mike O’Brien MP immigration minister proposed legislation to take asylum seekers valuables worth over £2,000.
Asked if that meant taking asylum seekers jewellery in committee he said, ‘that is exactly what we will do’

Nah I’m done funding this bullshit. They made their bed.
In many ways, this is not about the BBC. The BBC is symbolic - and symptomatic - in a much deeper and broader political battle. We must defend the BBC now in order not to lose that battle.
How you choose to reform the BBC to make it better in the long term is a separate question entirely.

This Labour government have been lying about the welfare bill in order to cut welfare for vulnerable people. They’ve fabricated a lie that it’s spiralling out of control, when in reality it’s actually normal.
Labour and Starmer are just as bad as the Tories, if not worse. Pure evil.

My proudest moment as an Arsenal supporter was when Alexandre Lacazette (and his teammates) knelt in front of the Slavia Prague players, who refused to do the same, after one of their players had racially abused Rangers player Glen Kamara in the previous match.

Elbowing players in the head - good and within the laws of the game.

Getting near xenophobic shit from elderly relatives who are terrified about asylum seekers, based entirely on something from the BBC is really making me sick.
"For reasons that have nothing to do with informing, educating and entertaining, but are likely instead about some team’s target stats, the BBC decided to actively tell millions of people they should be frightened by asylum seekers. Brilliant work."

Sadly you aren't the only one. There isn't a Western country that hasn't been compromised by Israeli interests. But apparently watching a genocide is not enough for people to rise up. So we wait until the killing moves here...and it will. It always does.
The British state has been captured completely by Israeli interests. As we speak they are looking to reverse a police order banning violent Israeli football fans from a match. While other European countries are pretending they were always against the genocide, the Uk is doubling down. I'm so ashamed
