Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

Yes, but we’re not required to hear them in France are we? The legality of new act will doubtless be well tested in court. As you suggest I expect it will be found illegal, as I’ve said previously.

No we aren’t required to hear them in France, but if we are refusing to hear them here, and then deporting them to somewhere they don’t want to be,then we need to hear them somewhere else., if not France then where? Surely if you want to stop the boats and traffickers then an agreement with France and the EU in general would be the answer.
Nowhere isn’t an answer because it’s illegal.

Nope, there’s little comparison to be made and by invoking it Lineker has been offensive. The UK government in 2023 is not Nazi Germany. Most of the great offices of state are held by ethnic minorities. I don’t say that Lineker’s comment necessitates any action, people are allowed to be mildly offensive now and then, but it is mildly offensive to compare the home sec to Nazis. Probably offensive to her, but more importantly offensive to the victims of the holocaust. I feel I’ve made this point now, I suspect it’s made all the traction is going to so I’ll leave it there.

There’s nothing disgraceful in the point I’ve made. I’ve engaged constructively to explain my position. If anyone is a disgrace then frankly it is you.

You are an apologist for a dangerous right wing narrative.

If someone doesn’t want to be accused of using language not dissimilar to that used in 1930s Germany, then don’t use language not dissimilar to that used in 1930s Germany.

Thinking making that point is suggesting the individual is as bad as those that committed the holocaust is either just wrong or very disingenuous. The comparison is the use of language and propaganda - not the actions that they enabled.

In summary we have a Bluemoon poster who explicitly compared Juergen Klopp to Nazi Germany and a former government minister who explicitly compared Momentum to Nazi Germany complaining about Gary Lineker comparing the Home Secretary’s comments with language from Germany in the 1930s, and by extension making out he is trivialising the Holocaust.

It would appear that the last people to recognise blatant hypocrisy are the hypocrites themselves even when their hypocrisy is clearly explained to them.

Yes, how dare I promote a dangerous right wing narrative by criticising that rabid left winger, err, Tory MP Andrew Bridgen, when he offensively invokes the holocaust. So far right.

And you have been wrong every one of the 1000+ times you have said it, and in so doing trivialised the holocaust for political whataboutery. And your twisting and reaching to justify an anti-immigration stance has been quite disgraceful.

But as you say, people are allowed to be wrong and disgraceful, as is the government. And peoplenare allowed to point it out. Apart from Gary Lineker of course.

Did the BBC even report Braverman being confronted by a Holocaust survivor in January?

I've noticed that the BBC sometimes ignore stories that reflect badly on the Conservative Party. Oh yes they do.
I don't blame the BBC , their reporters are basically being threatened either behave or lose your livelihood.
All because certain people cannot stomach any criticism AT ALL.

You think Bridgen is left wing?

Wow.

Or maybe you've confused me now. I hope so anyway.
