Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

[Blue and true]

Who have 'the left' cancelled? There's lots of tabloid bullshit about 'the left' cancelling people however.

They haven't cancelled anyone. They've called out some racists, misogynists, and generally bigoted individuals; and apparently that makes them woke. But cancelling somebody that speaks out against an appalling immigration policy, and against language that strays tentatively close to xenophobia and racism? Crack on. It makes you patriotic, or some such bullshit.

Think the bbc will be looking for new presenters
I would love the job my qualifications include being able to talk Shite fluently,stating the obvious

Well you won’t get the gig you don’t meet the criteria. You need to have played for Liverpool.

I once played with a female from Liverpool

I didn't think there was any other version of John Terry.

Does he own any other clothing? The undisputed champion Full Kit Wanker.

The other version is Kit Off Wanker, coming soon to a home near you.

most of em work for other broadcasters so they're not really putting jobs on the line, just one of they're many gigs, it's not like they'll all be down the food bank is it

not really the point
They didn’t have to stand by this decision but they have. All credit to them.

Your point is?

There isn't a point other than letting us know he watched the big gob covid denier moaning on GB News.

Why would Ian Wright be expected to show solidarity with people he didn't work with and at a rival broadcaster, who are as far as I'm aware aren't friends?

Le Tissier was let go as a commercial decision, if the BBC had let go of Linekar in similar circumstances and appointed someone younger and/or cheaper he would be perfectly entitled to say he didn't want to work there as well because he didn't fit in. But I'm not sure there would be a point of declaring "solidarity" when there weren't any political reasons at play.

Yes, but you almost got your accommodation burned down so I'd keep quiet about it if I were you.

Thought he'd be a bit busy for quite a while, police must want to talk to him after that jehovahs witnesses shooting the other day.

Most are freelancers and not slaves so can't be forced to do anything. I've done freelance work - at one place it was so shit I had enough and at the end of the day said I was going and wouldn't be back. Nobody came and dragged me out of bed the next day. No legal action was taken against me - not worth their time and money to do it.

New talent? Where do you think they are hiding at the moment? Listen to local radio and see how amateurish they are - maybe they can employ most of Talkshite's staff - I am sure you'd appreciate the delights of MotD presented by the boiled bollock ( would have to be on earlier though can't see them keeping him sober until midnight ) with Twatterface on commentary.

Rather like the BBC you haven't thought that one through.

The people who you freelanced for obviously thought you was shit as well. Plenty of talent out there: Nedum Onuha for one. Think before you post.
