I'd always assumed that Attenborough was being serious? ????

Lineker was publicly critical (on Twitter!) of Jeremy Corbyn when he was Labour leader, and about the only genuinely socialist leader labour has had since Michael Foot.

Nice deflection! ????

Not at all. But it's a Tory led organisation and that reflects its so-called "impartiality"!

They only showed about 3 minutes from each game (which can be seen on YouTube anyway!). Perhaps you, and the people you speak to, are not really into football? ????. Anyway, it seems it won't need to be repeated and we can get back to normal next weekend.

It means they are Conservatives which makes a mockery of your claim that somehow the BBC is left-wing!

Most people (including me) tuned in to see what it would be like. Most people will not be bothering again, if it stays as 20 minutes of goal highlights with fake crowd noise! Fortunately, it's looking likely that a compromise has been reached and it will be back to normal for the BBC's FA Cup quarter-final coverage. Welcome back Gary and friends! ????????

Whatever it is it's disgusting and as @BritManToo has tried to explain to you, requires the mask to be changed regularly.

Because they work in hospitals with sick patients and are in direct contact with open wounds. They wear surgical gowns and gloves too. If you're worried, there's nothing stopping you wearing the same.

Good grief! The Chairman and Director General of the BBC are both Conservatives. If the BBC was even "soft-left" Gary's comments wouldn't have caused such a ridiculous fuss! The BBC is right of centre and starting to lean even further right.

I think OP just wanted to know the dates for Chiang Mai.

We moved from Bangkok to Ban Chang a year ago and have no regrets. We're renting a nice house in a well managed village (not cheap though) and my son goes to the English Program school just down the road. Lots of good restaurants, a big food market for the wife and an Expat shop just around the corner for me. Lotus's is drab but useful and Robinsons is OK for Tops stuff that Lotus's don't sell. The nearest beaches are OK (I wouldn't choose them for a holiday) and good for a spot of lunch or an early evening beer and sunset.

Happy with my Lao wife.

Well, BBC Match of the Day was ridiculous - just 20 minutes of goal highlights. No intro music either! Bring back the commentators and pundits!

Well, that's your interpretation. I think he made a very apt point about the language of intolerance and scapegoating minorities. Are you saying there are no similarities?

I meant research about what Lineker tweeted. He referred to the language used in Germany in the 30s - not specifically any government.

I suggest you do some research.

If you look at the language from Germany in the 1930s vilifying and blaming Jews, gypsies, homosexuals and immigrants, you can see he has point! No wonder the hard-right Tories like Braverman are upset - the truth hurts!

How is that relevant? Presumably he's divorced or separated and his ex has custody of their children. You're all heart!!

I doubt he loses much sleep about being hated in Scotland! 555

Except he didn't mention "Nazis"...

All a bit irrelevant; until the next pandemic!

It is strange how Lineker's decency and likeability seem to really bring out the worst in some people.

There is none! He regularly tweeted anti-Jeremy Corbyn posts when Corbyn was Labour leader. Basically, he's a national treasure and icon and the BBC are going to rue their action. The sooner the organisation is reformed, starting with Boris' pal the Chairman, the better.
