      Takes all sorts.

      So long as they have coherent arguments, articulated well.

    So I see that two days of celebrating Gay Pride is not enough, there is a third day for Black Gay Pride.

    Even though the event is, I believe, to celebrate differences and sexual/gender diversity, a special higher distinction needs to be made for black gays/lesbians/bisexuals/trans etc.

    That’s the trouble when you start encouraging diversity top trumps, some consider their victimisation and struggle greater than others.

      What an unpleasant experience it was reading some of those bitter, spiteful tweets.

        The Internet has been a disaster for the Left. It not only enables people to bypass the Leftist dominated media and go back to original sources, it also enables people to read Leftist streams of consciousness in which they reveal what hate filled narcissists they are, with no interest in anything other than their own bitterness, greed, and self-pity.

        I have mentioned before that what really turned me against the Left was editing Wikipedia for a few years, It was not their totalitarian mindset, and lack of interest in reality which struck me most, although it was that as well, it was their malice.

        It is inevitable that BBC comedy will reflect this bitterness now that the BBC is run by Leftists. All Leftist comedy is angry and solipsistic because it derives from the frustrations which narcissists encounter every second of their lives.

        I don’t understand this. Is Davidson agreeing that the BBC are innocent and much maligned and that Trump is an evil tyrant attacking those bastions of “Free Speech” and should be silenced? Or is she just showing how chummy lefties like the other vile BBC (Bonkers Balls-Cooper) is to their allies like Kuenssberg in the original vile BBC?

        If Davidson is defending the BBC and attacking Trump then she will have plummeted in my humble estimation.

      The twitter feed for this programme merely confirms that it should be scrapped. It’s all left wing bile.

    The sports presenter on BBC breakfast not only is a black woman but she plays football! As she talked about her dreams of scoring great goals when she was younger I think I saw a portal to heaven open and noticed everything was suddenly bathed in a golden hue thanks to how fantastically progressive and ‘diverse’ the BBC is. No more gang violence; no more monocultural ghettos; no more patently evident and desirable differences between the genders.

    A black woman talking about playing football! O how I dreamed of this glorious day! White people are hideous, and you always want the girls you fancy to be keen footballers – who hasn’t gone on a date and had a kick around afterwards?

    We are no longer cursed by the plague of nepotism and the middle classes colonising all the top professions; free/hate speech is a thing of the past; everything is going to be ok! A black woman talking about sport! We might as well just not go into work tomorrow as the Beeb has ushered in heaven on Earth which far leftists actually think is attainable, rather than the Conservative reality that we have left the Garden of Eden and ought to be pragmatic.

    No doubt if I wrote this on the BBC website and they found my thoughts ‘objectionable’ they would tell my employer and ruin my life. But who needs free speech and free thought when black women can talk about football? Never mind the fake news and garbage, 2 plus 2 equals whoever is doing the sum. And as we have seen with those highly competent Alpha males Sadiq Khan and Barack Obama – who really knew how to stand up to our enemies – identity politics is the cure for all our problems. All hail almighty Beebus. We are safe in their hands.

    Marr makes the usual outrageous comment that German anti capitalists ‘ have not been well served by capitalism’. What a joke ! These pampered young Germans have done very well out of capitalism as has their country overall. Why are these comments allowed without challenge . What will ofcom do? Nothing!

      In 2016, Germany had a trade surplus of €253bn with the rest of the world.

      Germany’s current account surplus is above 8 per cent of gross domestic product.

      Appalling state of affairs!

    U2 celebrate Jo Cox on Joshua Tree tour
    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-40542708

    Bono, the world’s richest hypocrite, is pushing the Jo Cox agenda:
    “She lived her life championing the lives of others,” he told the audience at London’s Twickenham Stadium.

    And Bono echoed Jo Cox’s maiden speech to Parliament – “we have more in common than that which divides us” – as he made a plea for tolerance towards immigrants.

    There is more bollox in the article such as inviting 50 firefighters from Glenfell Tower to be blessed allowing them to watch U2 doing a soundcheck. He might as well as invited them to make him a sandwich and clean his toilet.

    This link has a list of Bono properties around the world. Anyone know which ones he is using to house immigrants?

    Andrew Marr is interviewing an actress who plays a “Left wing radical woman” in a movie.

    I think it’s great that Andrew Marr is expanding his show to include some left wing stuff!

      Tabs….You did well actually listening to it. I just don’t watch it anymore for fear of being physically sick.

      I expect today’s offering was a trump bash by the paper reviewers followed by some pro eu bod saying how bad Brexit will be (if ever) followed by some momentum supporting corbyinista and then followed by some ageing hippie music or failing that a ‘very successful’ ethnic band that no one has ever heard of playing foreign sounding music….

      Someone let me know If my guess was near…….lol
