Has the BBC become a Tory tool?

Does anyone know what the best asylum policy this country should have if starting with a blank sheet of paper.

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.

This simple point appears to have escaped thousands - including certain contributors to this thread

Well you're entitle to your opinion of course and in the lefty echo-chamber that is Bluemoon, the usual posters (you can just name them already) doubtless will agree. But it was IMO a crass and deeply inappropriate comment.

One thing he didn't say was all this bollox about the holocaust. He just said, and quite rightly in my humble opinion, was the rhetoric from that prk Braveman. Re left wing, sorry pal but most on bluemoon ARE Mancs. Home to co op, left wing politics due to farce of capitalism in industrial revolution, helped shaped the working class socialist mindset in Manc. Look at our City Council and MP's , not left enough for me. The stock broker belt is what you get with rightvwing politics, all white faces, no diversity, boring as fk culturally as well as being unbalanced

Seems it’s total humiliation for the government stooges parachuted in to run the BBC.

Due process: welcome to the uk do you have a valid entry document? No, well then you’ll be treated as an illegal immigrant. How much more process is required? These people are chancers and should be treated as such.

Did you vote Leave by any chance?

This interview by BBC News of Tim Davie:



tells me all I need to know about this situation. Davie and the other Tory backers at the BBC need to go, Lineker should then be allowed to decide if he wants to continue or not then the Conservative Party need to be held accountable for their efforts to undermine and influence the public sector broadcaster. Any Tory that subsequently comes electioneering to my front door will get a grilling on this issue, hopefully the voting public will see sense and kick them out of government.

The issue with smirking when you say you are sorry is that it just makes you look like a saboteur who is finding it hard to supress how chuffed you are with yourself. Of course, it could just be that that is his resting face.

I see the frothers are up early.

That statement sounds like a huge damage limitation statement.

I wonder if everyone that supported him this weekend said they do the same next and ruin their FA Cup coverage?

Just waiting for someone objecting to free speech and having a public service broadcaster not bowing to Government interference.
