Oh so that's what swayed so many polls in the UK, a mix up between seagulls and Zeig Heil. Honestly your claim it affected the polls is laughable and you've provided no proof to substantiate your claims. Racism arrests rising at London football grounds as campaigners call for action Racism arrests at London club football grounds rose during the past six years, analysis of Met Police records shows. Statistics acquired through Freedom of Information requests show both total and per-game arrests increased between 2015/16 and 2019/20. https://www.swlondoner.co.uk/sport/14022022-racism-arrests-rising-at-london-football-grounds-as-campaigners-call-for-action

You provided one link that in no way supports these claims: Well of course people are going to think racism is increasing in football if there are numerous false newspaper reports of it happening Your link is in reference to the a "Cardiff City fans' leader" who is denying claims made by Reading who are each investigating two incidents of alleged racist and homophobic abuse, with the Royals confirming after the game a match-day steward had reported two separate accounts of alleged 'discriminatory' abuse. This is not a false newspaper report let alone numerous reports

You may want to read the post I was replying to and the accusations made against the Guardian. Besides its the view of the majority of British people: Following the racist abuse hitting the headlines, seven in ten football fans in England (71%) now think that professional English football has a serious problem with racism, a rise of 17 percentage points since the opening stages of the tournament in June. This represents a significant conversion among those who had previously acknowledged that racism existed in English football, but did not consider it to be serious: 36% previously had held this view, but this has now shrunk to 24%. https://yougov.co.uk/topics/sport/articles-reports/2021/07/22/belief-racism-serious-problem-english-football-sho

Assault on Kiev: Russian helicopters swoop above Ukraine's capital

Great speech by both Zelensky and Biden. Putin was wrong, after one year the West is united and stronger than ever to defeat Russia in its illegal invasion. -
Russian mafia-style ‘gangs’ causing concerns for Phuket businesses
Bkk Brian replied to webfact's topic in Phuket News
Hope you weren't in Phangan last month when this UK women had the top of her finger bitten off Female British tourist has part of her finger bitten off 'like something out of a horror movie' by Russian woman after argument broke out over a beanbag on a Thai beach -
Really, the Guardian has a hatred for the working class? Can you provide proof of that along with the exaggeration of it in football? Does the Sun also have that hatred when they report racism in football or perhaps the police? The news comes just days Brentford condemned racist abuse aimed at Ivan Toney on social media after Saturday's draw against Arsenal. In a statement, the Bees said Toney had been subjected to a "barrage of abusive, racist direct messages" on Instagram. Last month it was announced that racist football fans who troll players will be banned from matches in England and Wales for up to 10 years under Government plans. https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/21395586/brazil-soccer-racism-rule-points-deduction/ Unfortunately, we also saw the return of reports of racist and or homophobic chanting during at least three cup ties: Crystal Palace vs Millwall, Spurs vs Chelsea and Reading v Cardiff City. This disgusting behaviour will never be tolerated by those who truly love the game, and by most of society. https://www.cps.gov.uk/cps/news/dpp-max-hill-how-were-taking-action-against-racist-and-homophobic-football-chants

Racism in football has always been a huge problem, one which just gets worse. As with this incident, complaints are made to social media companies but nothing gets done. Its also not just social media but a whole host of cultural problems. Its impossible to focus just one aspect and miss the dozens of others that are contributing to football supporters (not all I know) acting out racism at matches. English football is consumed by racism and hatred. Can the cycle be broken? Wave of abuse directed at players on social media is part of a deep societal crisis but perhaps football can provide a solution https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/feb/08/english-football-is-consumed-by-racism-and-hatred-can-the-cycle-be-broken

I don't consider the OP hyperbole at all. Its a genuine concern -
Critics reject changes to Roald Dahl books as censorship
Bkk Brian replied to onthedarkside's topic in World News
Perhaps they'll be ok now as reading material in Florida school libraries.....lol. DeSantis will be pleased -
Good on Sean for speaking his mind, look forward to the documentary. But I would add, not just the US, but NATO and those countries now helping should all be reflecting on why they did not intervene sooner with effective weapon supplies. We can see they work and help to drive out the occupation by the invaders.

Biden healthy, vigorous and fit for job, says doctor
Bkk Brian replied to Social Media's topic in World News
Is this the same doctor? "White House physician turned congressman says Democrats are ginning up COVID-19 scares to cheat with mail-in ballots in the 2022 midterms." Trump nominated Jackson to serve as secretary of Veterans Affairs in 2018. But Jackson ultimately withdrew from consideration after allegations of misconduct emerged, including accusations he drank on the job, sexually harassed a female subordinate and casually dispensed prescription drugs. Not sure, someone like that can be trusted to give a non bias view on Biden -
Failed fact checks from Fox again. 9 year old children were not taught this curriculum. "The Florida Department of Education told PolitiFact that sexual orientation and gender identity are not included in the curriculum taught in the state’s kindergarten through third-grade classrooms." https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/mar/23/dont-say-gay-vs-parental-rights-fact-checking-clai/

Florida couple unable to get abortion will see baby die after delivery
Bkk Brian replied to Scott's topic in World News
How does this make you feel DeSantis? Specially since you want to sign a six-week abortion ban if one passed. “It makes me angry, for politicians to decide what’s best for my health,” Deborah Dorbert told the Washington Post. “We would do anything to have this baby.” “We have never really understood,” Lee Dorbert said, adding: “We were told there was an exception … Obviously, [it’s] not enough of an exception in some cases.” Quote from OP link -
Lets face it, who needs Alex Jones when you have Tucker, one of his previous master pieces.................. 'Off the rails': New Tucker Carlson project for Fox embraces conspiracy theories Where Tucker Carlson goes, Fox News and its viewers follow. The network's top host is now leading them to an examination of the violent Jan. 6 siege of the U.S. Capitol in a three-part series called Patriot Purge, which was released this week on the network's right-wing streaming service Fox Nation. In the series, Carlson strongly suggests that the insurrection was not orchestrated by former President Donald Trump's fans but by his foes, including violent leftist antifa groups and even the FBI and other national security divisions. https://www.npr.org/2021/11/03/1051607945/tucker-carlson-fox-news-insurrection-conspiracy-new-show

Story time by Hersh.................. Its a pity you didn't bother to read the previous links that literally blows this piece of fake news out of the water

Hardly my opinion, its in the legal filings from Fox news staff themselves, you should read the OP and other links. "Fox leaders worried turning away from false allegations of voter fraud would hurt their brand" Yes we know Carlson is highly rated by the gullible, his own lawyers admitted he does not provide facts................lol You Literally Can't Believe The Facts Tucker Carlson Tells You. So Say Fox's Lawyers
