It seems a major probe is being launched into how a British man managed to bypass border force security and board a plane to New York with no ticket or paperwork. He was returned next day to the UK by US officials. Probably end up doing some time!
I think another much bigger probe needs to be made into the UK border force concerning hundreds of incoming ticketless and paperworkless arrivals who are meekly accepted welcomed and rehomed without a peep of objection and zero danger of being returned to where they came from.
Now I’m not against any disabled person having access Io anything that makes life easier, but I fail to understand why a deaf person cannot just turn on the subtitles on tv.
I recorded a film, which I’ve just settled down to watch and put on the subtitles – I have ok hearing but the articulation of actors can be abominable. Then what do I see ? An interpreter in the bottom right doing sign language ! Why ??? If I can follow a film with subtitles (and audio titles) why can’t a deaf person ? I scrapped the film, as the interpreter was too much of a distraction.

After the 1 p.m. News had been read it was all anti-Trump right up to about 1.25 p.m. and the centenary of the first performance of a Gershwin tune. It was a disgraceful bit of anti-Trump propaganda by the BBC.

BBC: Still bereft by the loss of Ken Bruce (and his listenership), the Corporation is launching nostalgic ‘spin-off stations’. It makes no sense to launch several more radio stations as it loses market share across the board to commercial rivals.
“The news that BBC Radio is to launch several spin-off stations feels unnecessary, at least, in an age when we already have too much choice…the Corporation have realised they should have fought harder to keep Ken Bruce, and are looking on with envy as the figures for his show on Greatest Hits Radio, which includes the extraordinarily successful PopMaster segment, continue to grow. When he started on the Bauer station last April, Bruce had an audience of 2.2million a week. In the final quarter of last year, this had grown to 3.8million.”

Good for Ken Bruce and Co. Although I am an avid radio listener, I now ignore the BBC as its ‘the BBC’ and for the sake of sanity (what;s left) I cannot take any more BBC waffle, BBC drama, BBC opinions and addlled leftish clap-trap. At one time I only listened to BBC ,back in the days when ‘progressive’ meant John Peel late nights and perhaps the Old Grey Whistle test. Now BBC progressive means: Abortion, veganism, Genetics (racial purity of coloured people), Cuban communism, culture change (wokeism), Climate change (apocolypse), hatred of the Jews (denying the holocaust), defining human rights as (being only) defined by the EU. Open Borders for all (Soros) immigrants, benefits for all foreign nationals, Alignment with global socialism and US Biden/Obhama and Clinton as saviours of the universe.
And they have declared only ten years ago that ‘Radio’ was dead. That they would only wanted a ‘yoof’ market (Radio 6 Rap music) and have admitted that they do not have any conservative values. And they hate the Conservatives. Reform party included.
They love the Liberals, but only if they don’t upset the TV license.
Have I missed anything out?
I also read last week that SPOTIFY now is worth £3.8 Billion in subscriptions. Spotify (I think) was based in Norway. The BBC has slightly more income but its forced (on you) in UK law to pay for it – even if you don’t watch it. The BBC makes another £4 Billion selling in sales to other countries (US and Canada mainly), that do not have to pay a TV license. So in effect, the BBC global ambitions are limited by its inability to make any money with or WITHOUT the TV license. We end up paying for it all. That includes radio, which is doomed to fail. Even if they have several more, copying all the commercial stations. And they do, often copy commercial rivals. So commercial station are not happy about it. The BBC is still a public funded monopoly.

BBC have a Sign language page

The progs in that online page have a button to switch to the non-signed version
I note the first thing on the page is the Drag Show programme

Richard: The Arabs have put down a motion at the United Nations condemning Israel. Naturally, we’ll be voting on the Arab side.
Humphrey: Naturally.
Richard: But I gather that the PM wants us to abstain.
Humphrey: Surely not! Why?
Richard: Something about the PLO starting it this time, faults on both sides. The usual sentimental nonsense.
