Not all of them are policies though are they. E.g. blame all problems on immigrants and minorities. For what's it worth I think GL is right. 

No you are are right, that was just added as a similarity rather than a factual comparison. Not wrongly either in my opinion

Murdering your own citizens and those of territories you occupy because you do not like their race, religion, sexual orientation or politics is not in anyway comparable to seeking to secure a sovereign border from unlawful entry.

 

In layman's terms he is a f++king idiot and deserves whatever comes his way.

 

 

 

 

Maybe you should read what he actually tweeted.

He compared the policy to Nazi Germany. He didn’t compare the government to Nazis.

He compared the LANGUAGE being used now to the LANGUAGE being used in 1930s Germany.

 

And then just to prove that this is nothing like 1930s Germany, he got sensored for his freedom of speech.

Exactly. My point being he did not call the current government Nazis.

Seems like there will be no presenter or pundits tomorrow.


Probably bring more viewers out of curiosity!

Maybe it will be match commentators next!

The BBC should offer the job to Tory MP's,

LIke politicans of every flavour they adore he sound of their own voice and the chance to be centre of attention is just irresistible to the scumbags.

Besides which the attempt would be utterly hilarious.

Because the BBC is supposed to be impartial, the fact an individual agrees with what he says in any given instance should not be a factor.

You are aware that the BBC is currently run by a Tory donor.

I dunno maybe Gary gas gotten bored with footy and has read mein kampf cover to cover and become an expert in German social policies in the 1930's and his assessment is important and relevant but can't help thinking he's my age and has 8.7 million followers and I can't influence my daughter to tidy her room...

 

 

Maybe if you used an occasional full stop she'd listen.

The big difference is that the Nazis were building up public support to strip Jews in their own country of all their rights before deporting them to concentration camps. This government is appealing to popular consensus to win an election. Now I’m not defending the tories but there is a MASSIVE difference

The BBC's idea of "impartiality" is sticking someone like the head of the IMF, or EMA, CBI or WTO in the same studio as an anti vax Tufton Street 900 million immigrants are coming to live in your street right wing goon who thinks the world is ran by lizards, and because there is one of each in the studio they represent 50% of the population each and their views are as sound as each others.

Sir David Attenborough, Gary Lineker, they are basically after good Leicester people. The Beeb will ban all future screenings of The Elephant Man next.

I’m delighted the other presenters stood firm with Lineker.

 

The BBC have ****ed it. They’re barely even pretending to be anything other than Conservative Party propagandists these days.

 

I have a genuine fear that public service broadcasting is dead forever. We allowed evil forced to break the system while we weren’t paying attention. 
 

**** Boris Johnson, **** Robbie Gibb, **** Richard Sharp and **** the rest of them. Cultural and societal vandals.

If the commentators and players support him (I think they will), I think the Beeb will end up backing down.

 

Frankly, after all those goals he scored for Leicester and England, and after talking about crisps on the telly in a Leicester accent, and after being a massively prominent Leicester fan in the public eye, he could have advocated the cruel death of puppies in food processors and I'd have probably still loved him.

 

As it is, he happens to have been spot on this week, as he often is, and the BBC are arses.

It's a totally fair point.  At the moment.  

 

However, we are currently in an economic rut with many feeling disenchanted with the state of the nation.  This is every bit like Cummings 'take back control' nonsense, appealing to those who are struggling by blaming it on the 'other' when really the blame lies with our own political masters. It's been going on for years.  It's not those who wield power and hoard wealth that are the problem, it's some poor sod fleeing war or persecution that's to blame for everything. 

 

It's the nurses.  It's the train drivers.  Look, look anywhere but at the people that run the bloody joint. 

 

Now that Brexit has demonstrably made everything worse, despite the right wingers promises, there must be new scapegoats.  

 

This is very fertile ground for the far right and this is the thin end of the wedge.  

 

It's very dangerous to think that as a country we can't slide into the sort of far right blackhole that other European countries have.
