You do seem to froth about Lineker tbf.Something about the bar in Spain rings a bell mate, either way you're not that big of a **** that it's noticeable ;)
Either way people put to much store into frothing over people who can't/wont/don't affect their lives (Politicians excluded because they do and can) , people love to be upset.

This thread alone is a clear indication that gutter papers like the dailymail are clearly winning. Question is, are these papers really doing a good job pushing their garbage narrative or are certain people just eager to eat it all up?

Fair enough, but as long as the cap can fit the other way too. There's a certain type that absolutely despise labels, especially ones that are aptly descriptive and hit the nail on the head, they get very irate ("gammon" I believe) and start citing dictionary meanings, yet delight in generalising and labeling others.Lazy perhaps but, if the cap fits...

Am I right in thinking that virtue signalling is new talk for bragging/boasting?

That's what I was trying to find out. It's not a phrase I use so not sure why/when others do. You could be right. It just seems to me though used when someone is being a decent person, so not sure why they should be called out for it.

It's very confusing these days mate.That's what I was trying to find out. It's not a phrase I use so not sure why/when others do. You could be right. It just seems to me though used when someone is being a decent person, so not sure why they should be called out for it.
P.S, apparently a take is an opinion now.

Not sure if that's directed at me, I guess it must be seeing as I'm the only one who quoted the dictionary...?
However I've not been irate and not called anyone gammon, so I'm not sure. You'd probably call me more of a "snowflake", but whatever, it's a bit irrelevant.
Biggest difference between Lineker and Barton is that Lineker mostly calls out people in power, while Barton just punches downwards. Shouldn't be surprised though, it's how he's always been.
