Hate the woke political op-eds of the BBC as much as you do scruff, but that's only a tiny part of what they do. Its the swing of the pendulum! I remember the hot topic of the day in the seventies when the BBC (Alf Garnet et al) was accused of exasperating race relations for a laugh. Tony Booth claimed the show was about a dysfunctional family, nothing more. The downside was that many people sided with Alf's bigotry! Johnny Speight himself felt marginalized as a kid growing up in the East End when he saw To Let signs next door saying "No blacks, dogs or Irish"

The world's biggest bank is shunning British debt amid fears that Rachel Reeves has stoked inflation with record increases in the minimum wage and a £40bn tax raid.JP Morgan Asset Management, which has $3.3 trillion (£2.6 trillion) of assets under management, including more than $750bn in bonds, said "big uncertainty" over the magnitude of next year's wage increases and the impact on prices meant it was steering clear of UK gilts.. .Daily Telegraph

Good grooming ground for many presenters too

The problem is GNR that the majority want it to remain as one of the pillars of Britain's culture. Like most other once great British institutions such as the universities, the police and judi iary and so on it is now betraying our heritage as its been infiltrated and hijacked by woke and liberal lefty anti British, anti free speech and anti impartiality entryists

Clearly, you haven't even looked at the interview, where it is Sonia being interviewed!
Secondly, in your above post you seem to hold the BBC in high esteem. This shows how out of touch and ignorant you are.

Perhaps you should have opened up the link before spouting drivel. Yes...

[gotnorolex] 27/12/2024 16:59

Can't think of a single reason why a respected journalist like Sonia Poulton would grace an editor/revenue driven YouTube show "Heretics" for a rambler like Andrew Gold who was sacked by the BBC for being an incompetent sensationalist. She is sure to expose his raison d'etre, should he make an unlikely comeback to mainstream TV.

[gotnorolex] 27/12/2024 13:34

Tabloid journalism on YouTube.....Don't waste your time!

[bulltradept] 27/12/2024 13:02

Will 2025 be the time of mass awaking regarding the protected classes here, in the UK?

Joe ,
which country do you live in sport ? UK has a LABOUR government and Scruff1 will no doubt pick you up on that ! :)

[joe say] 27/12/2024 07:42

and btw, currently 137,558 people have seen the light

perhaps some of the few remaining Tories may wish to switch their allegiance

[joe say] 27/12/2024 07:40

No coincidence that the unhappiness factor rears its head under a liebour government.

I think not

[arja] 27/12/2024 06:05

Scruff1 ,
yes , wise in one sense but not in his political choice assuming he was an extreme right winger like you and would have backed 14 years of Tory rule and all the austerity ! Or maybe he was smarter then you ?

[utrickytrees] 26/12/2024 23:27

Happiness is relative to misery though isn't it? They're just opposite ends of the spectrum. Personally, I'd rather move to Wolverhampton.

[scruff1] 26/12/2024 19:51

Me grandad (great geezer) always used to tell me - money can't buy you happiness but it can ease yer misery

[maxk] 26/12/2024 15:13

Well, you can have a few bob and be uphappy, or you can be skint and unhappy.


There is a choice for some, and I know which one I would go for. Altho it wont be the wokey way.
