David Attenborough show kicked sideways to iPlayer

What times we live in

I know almost nothing about the Premier League even though I try to catch the big games every now and then at the end of the season. But I will say this, Queens Park Rangers is just a fukking sick ass team name. Just sounds so cool.

BBC internal disciplinary issue is the first item on the news!

I won’t call this ridiculousness and the BBC a joke, because a joke is funny and it and them are a farce.

Only thing of value that might come out of this, is just show the bloody football highlights and spare us the waffle.

Ridiculous decision

And Linekers words taken out of context

He was likening the WORDING of the boats issue on a par with the WORDING used in 1930s Germany.

I no idea about that but he wasn't likening us to Nazi Germany but obviously the link in a clumsily worded tweet taken it of all meaning and almost then saying Lineker supports Nazi Germany.

Mad.

He was vocal about Qatars human rights issues but despite some aspects society working well there ie very organised, lack of drink related issues etc but his view to complain against them deemed ok by BBC.

Whether people like Gary Lineker as a presenter he has been there for 25 years and provided them with being a decent presenter over many many years.

One word out of place and strike three.

BONKERS WORLD !!!!

Who are these idiots in charge of WOKE society...

When people can send DEATH threats to random people online and most Internet trolling is nearly always not investigated or indeed prosecuted also.

When 25% MPs face bullying, sexist or financial impropriety and still in the Commons, BBC have ballsed up ridiculously.And some of these very MP s criticised Linekers words. These deviants been upset by Gary's words !!

Maybe BBC should take a libel case out against Lineker as they been upset by Gary's comment !!!!

Think as Ian Wright not presenting MOTD, maybe Shearer and others boycott BBC also..

Really pathetic !!!

This never ending culture war is almost as depressing as QPRs never ending losing run. We're now in scorched earth territory. Tories are finished and they know it. Their only objective now is to leave the country in as much of a mess as possible for when Labour take over. What a wretched state we're in!


Already making excuses for Labours failure. Give them at least a chance to prove they are just as inept as anyone else.

Absolutely ridiculous! He tweets in his spare time, not voicing his opinions whilst on air. He works for the sports department of the BBC , not current affairs. Why on earth should be be not able to comment on politics ?


Jesus. If anyone needed confirmation of the left wing bias of this site, here it is. Left wing luvies reign. Lineker should stick to selling crisps and not spouting champagne socialist crap.

If you work for the Beeb u have to be impartial. If he wants to air an opinion, which is his right, then he could work for Daily Mail or The Guardian, but not the Beeb.
Besides, he is of questionable character anyway, tries it on with anything allegedly!

It's almost....Guardianesque 😉 I respect their right to their views though, and expect the same in return. That way we can all get along merrily. Politics just poisons everything.

Blame the politicians.

Twitter sems to be the sphere of all their decision making constantly. Incredibly bonkers how much power a social media platform wields.
The handling of the Covid pandemic was driven by it, Prime Ministers have resigned over opinions voiced through it. We've seen U turns over government policy because it got a bit shouty on Twitter by the people that were always going get shouty no matter what the policy is.

You have elected politicians writing their official MP open letters on the bloody thing denouncing TV presenters for an opinion thats managed to gain momentum via a bunch of narcissistic morons or writing letters calling for the cancellation of comedians because they said a naughty joke...

When will they just switch the bloody thing off and do their job properly?

He is entitled to his ,"opinion" like anyone else. I doubt the Left would be so offended about his treatment though, if someone more to the right had said it. In my "opinion," Lineker is a self righteous, virtue signalling, hypocritical bore. He is probably already dotting the I's and crossing the T's on his new lucrative gig. The BBC should be defunded...then they can hire any blow-hard they want.


Not really "virtue signalling" if he puts his money where his mouth is and house immigrants in his home.

Just a reminder that the new BBC chairman, Richard Sharp, donated more than £400,000 to the Tory party and arranged an £800,000 loan for Johnson who appointed him.

But Alan Sugar can say what he likes about Mick Lynch and striking transport workers and stay in his job?

And Andrew Neill.

It's a massive distraction created by the Tories whose policy has been lauded by Salvini, Samour and AfD. Hmm.

Inevitable. As soon as a blowhard like Tim Davie was put in charge and started blabbing on about impartiality they were going to have a problem, because there will inevitably be contradictions like Andrew Neil, Alan Sugar, Robbie Gibb, Richard Sharp etc and in this era of extreme division you're just going to tie yourself in a thousand 'whataboutery' knots. I suspect you'll see exactly what I mean over the following dozen pages of this thread.

Be interesting to see who actually hosts and appears on it now. Ian Wright has already said he won't do the show tomorrow.

Shearer has said he won’t appear now…sounds like Fiona Bruce could present Saturday night!

The Left doesn't have the monopoly on decent human virtues. You have just proved yet again,what I said about the hypocrisy and intolerance of a lot on the Left. And notice I said a lot...not all. That the difference between you and me.
