"Just not watch the BBC"? 

 

tbh, I consider the BBC as a fairly evil propaganda machine that actively undermines the quality of life in Europe. I've a duty to watch it and point out their biased reporting.....

 

Anyway, their costume dramas are quite good.... 

 

Did you watch the clip I posted? Tommy Robinson is often called a thick racist, if he's so thick how can he run verbal rings round a BBC reporter? He made the BBC reporter look a complete 'tard.

I'm gonna defend that reporter for a change. While I think he's probably sauntering through life finding the path of least resistance, and to me that is reprehensible and a catastrophic waste of a life for so many reasons, at least he was honest. It's a step forward. If he could be brutally honest with himself next he might have a chance. I got the feeling he knew his soul had hit rock bottom.

It can't have been lost on you Mark, that wasn't watching the BBC, that was watching someone make a monkey of the BBC but not on the BBC...  (to be fair, it wasn't too challenging ?)

I was just going off the title 'Tommy Robinson Destroys BBC Reporter.'  I didn't watch the clip.

It certainly wasn’t challenging! The guy was thick as pig shit.
Tommy won an argument with a thicko[emoji106]

Is it an tendency of a certain faction of the political spectrum that they find it impossible to recognise a successful and compelling argument or achievement from a party or person which is outside their own bunkered silo?

 

Can you imagine some contributors here applauding the demonstrable economic and foreign policy successes of the current US administration? Or acknowledging the point that a desire for control of the movement of people doesn’t automatically pre-qualify as membership of the Waffen SS, or that Israel is a democracy which provides aid to the people of Palestine....

 

See, I’d be happy as Larry if a moronic FW like Dianne Abbot said or did something sensible, I’d have no problem recognising and celebrating it (not holding breath in anticipation mind.) perhaps a poor choice of example. 

 

Just wondering loike, what would it take for some of the extreme lefty hard liners to say “Well done Donald/Tommy, you done good there, played a blinder...”

 

(I am laughing as I imagine the response - if they shot them self in the head -which I suspect would be what some might think... ?)

Yeah, to be fair to the reporter it looked like he never really believed in his own arguments.... 

 

I honestly think the "extreme right" have won the argument on immigration  and multiculturalism. They've been warning for decades it's not a good idea and they've been proved right.... I think this is a turning point in history where people will start voting for the parties that reflect what people say to their families and close friends....

Maybe they would if the far right wasn’t so far right. People (as in enough to win or even be taken too seriously) don’t like voting for the extreme anything IMO.
They maybe would if it was toned down a bit.

Tbh, the views of the "extreme right" would just have been considered common sense fifty years ago. We live in a Britain where 400 Brits have come back from fighting with IS. Do the authorities arrest them or deport them? No, they give them a council house, benefits and put them on a watch list.

 

Allowing people into Britain that hate us is extreme. 

Turning a blind eye to mass sexual abuse because the perpetrators aren't white is extreme.

 

Being concerned about these things is not extreme.

Your bending narratives again!

 

The same people/media outlets turned a blind eye to the churches abuse scandal also. Pretty sure the majority involved where white. 

 

Lastly given the fact that we now know about the church scandal and the scandals you refer to, you know given that they are now in the public domain, did people really turn a blind eye or wait for conclusive evidence before uncovering them?
