    Biased BBC at its very best.
    BBC1 6 pm news.
    First story lasting 5 minutes.

    Scotland have a very important football game tonight.
    We hear from enthusiastic fans, players, and the manager for 5 minutes.

    In other news. England also have a game.

    6pm BBC1 news spent 10 minutes on football with the emphasis on Scotland and then 5 minutes starting with the fish woman telling us how restrictions will lift in Scotland. I thought those north of the border have their own news so I don’t understand why those of us in England have to get so much Scottish news.

      Deborah. I am in Scotland and it is even worse. Off button most of the time. The inane utterances from Sturgeon means it is deployed most of the time.

    And whether “with” or “of”!

    I suspect quite a lot of the “withs” are a). hospitalised with some other condition and b.) the C.O.D is decided by phone from a remote “doc”.

    “Poorer white pupils let down and neglected – MPs”
    It says use of the term “white privilege”, suggesting white pupils are at an advantage, is the “opposite” of the reality for poor white pupils.
    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/education-57558746

    That headline fell of their front page pretty swiftly?.
    Has the fightback against the woke culture brainwashing our British kids began ?
    Those people that hate us and think that Britain is racist should kindly leave.

    Seen the latest crazy advert from Sainsbury’s?

    Stephen Frytful, overvoicing an absolute load of tosh. Eat beetroot, its good for you(true), it is also used in crop rotation, as
    this helps the planet, (true, but only in vegetable plots, the crop rotation that is).

    This is a highly disturbing story…

    https://reclaimthenet.org/americas-frontline-doctors-scrambled-for-new-host-after-webflow-pulled-support-due-to-amazon-misinformation-rule/

    The alarm bells should ring when you hear an Internet Services Company deciding they are better informed re disinformation than a bunch of qualified doctors. just read the Amazon statement….

    “We wanted to reach out to you about your project, americasfrontlinedoctors.org. This project is hosting misinformation about vaccines and was reported as objectionable content to AWS,”

    So how do you know 100% that it’s misinformation Amazon? and who reported it Amazon?

    I suspect your global over-masters turned your screws!

      Scroll down on the above postfrom DiGg, (highly disturbing) and there is something truly frightening. Apparently the IT company chosen by the UK government to produce covid passports also punts the fact that various other countries using the passport have cross threaded it into national ID cards. Is this a portent of things to come?

    OT, not biased BBC so much as rather lowbrow BBC (and ITV).

    The current wall to wall footie coverage requires a lot of pundits and brain cell levels are fairly low. They are clearly fed the lines when discussing the finer points of tactics and especially the glaringly obvious wise-after-the-event post-match summaries.

    So how about this.

    A match is recorded. Let’s say it is a 2-1 win to one of the teams.

    Then the goals are edited out of the recording, in part and in whole. So now we have several versions of the same match. Minus just 1 or 2 minutes. And the final result could thus apparently be 0-0, 2-1 ( the actual unedited result), or even 0-1.

    The different versions are shown to different sets of pundits and they give us their verdict on who played the better and whether the ‘better’ team won.

    Remembering that 87 minutes of the game would be the same for all versions.

    What fun it would be to hear the pundits and any differences of opinion. Which I suspect would be most amusingly significant.

      Sluff,

      While we’re on football, why do so many players now cover their mouths with one hand when talking to each other on or leaving the pitch. Luke Shaw even did it tonight when talking to the ref. Who wears a mike. When did this nonsense become the norm?

      Nobody gives a shit what they’re saying.

      I forecast Sharia independently governed areas in the North within 10 years where the UK police etc. will not be allowed to enter.

      They have succeed with this in other Countries so why not here?

      This of course being the beginning of the end game with 50 million Muslims transported into the UK to force it through Nationally in the fullness of time.

      The left will see them as voters and welcome them with open arms until they get turned on as well.

    There is a broadcaster challenging this guff, GB News had a piece about this very subject with Andrew Neil.
    He made a point of explaining just how good the overall news was. The vaccine is working. There has been masses more testing. Most of the people testing positive are young and fit and aren’t going to be hospitalised or die.
    Powerful stuff.

    The takeaway is the 7-day-trend is cases are up just 6% since last week.
    That is not a runaway disaster

    Don’t read too much into death trend being 30% higher since last week, cos that was already built in 5 weeks ago from the case trend rising from nothing to a few

    Hey guys
 I’m sorry if this is off topic and not the bulls1t BBC but I thought it was worth sharing as we all know sleepy joe shouldn’t be where he is but worth a look.

    I never used to be a “conspiracy theorist” and actively used to extract the urine out of one of my co-workers with 9-11 and all that, but since the Chinese virus hit the uk and our dipsh1t Drakeford here in the land of dragons actively sought Marxist rule I thought all bets off đŸ˜±

        The BBC didn’t want Trump re-elected so they did everything they could to make sure this didn’t get media attention. As did all the other left-wing media outlets (which is most of them).
        It’s off-the-scale outrageous – but anyone who says so get viscously attacked and has their platform removed from under them.
        Now we have the EU trying to stop UK programs in the EU because they don’t want the wrong political ideology gaining traction.
        The Left are about 30% down the road to becoming the modern Nazis. The ‘acceptable standard’ line in the sand is slowly being moved like the heat on the proverbial frog.
        All of these things – such as so many ethnic people in advertisements – is part of a bigger aim to subdue resistance from the silent non-political majority. They are being taught to accept ideological concepts without rebellion. It’s not even a conscious plan by most of them – they are like ants with each doing their little bit to push the agenda.

      I cannot for the life of me understand how “dipsh1t Drakeford” got re-elected ?
      Was it down to the education system that we have were kids are being indoctrinated and then allowed to vote before they leave school ?

    Don’t you just love the advertisement’s on ITV before, during
    and after the football ? It does make you want to rush out and
    buy all the products being offered ? The only thing that I feel guilty
    about is that I have been married for 53 years to a woman of
    the same ethnicity as myself.

    “Latina!
    I’ve just met a girl who’s Latina. . .”
    Not BBC, but instead more race-swapping in the movies. I know lots of people are perfectly OK with this being done to fictional characters, especially when it’s fantasy or fairy-tale, but I think we’ve moved on now. With the recent Anne Boleyn the wokists came out with all sorts of bullshine about why race-swapping an actual person also didn’t matter – because ‘her race wasn’t part of her story.’
    I’m sure most people know what Superman looks like, and maybe also his cousin Supergirl – she’s blonde, slim, athletic, wears a skirt instead of underpants. Well in upcoming superhero flick “The Flash” Supergirl will be played by Sasha Calle, a rather chunky, moon-faced Latina with a boy’s haircut.

    Funnier still is the announcement that the actress playing Maria in Spielberg’s new version of West Side Story has been cast as the lead in Disney’s live action remake of Snow White. Rachel Zegler, who like Calle has Colombian heritage, deleted a tweet that said she wouldn’t be lightening her skin for the role. But I suppose we’re the racists if we dare to ask why someone ‘of colour’ is playing a character called “Snow White!”

    I saw someone post this earlier but it disappeared off lmy list:
    Car driven at Kilwinning police officer in murder attempt
    https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-57528088
    ‘Police Scotland are appealing for the community’s help to trace the driver of the vehicle.’
    We are told it was a blue Ford Focus.
    I’m quite sure the police got a look at the driver – so:
    Telling us the driver was a white male would help the community by cutting the number of suspects by 52%.
    Telling us the driver was an Asian male would help the community by cutting the number of suspects by 98.2%.
    Telling us the driver was a black male would help the community by cutting the number of suspects by over 99%.
    I wonder why they omitted such relevant information.
