    The BBC is the Conservative government's propaganda media. Under the disguise of impartiality and independence.

    Ah so that's why the likes of Maitlis and Lineker were/are always attacking the government. It's because they are secretly acting as propaganda for them. I guess they just don't know that propaganda is supposed to promote something, not attack it.

     

    It all makes perfect sense now. Thanks for explaining.

    I rather hope Lineker takes this to court, but I suspect the BBC will see sense and stop censoring Lineker.

    I rather hope he'll go the same way as Maitlis and leave the BBC. For all her politically biased rants against the government, at least she had the courage of her convictions to do the right thing. Maybe he can go back to advertising junk food to kids, or maybe another gig in Qatar?

     

    Given his colossal salary (paid for under threat of jail by pensioners who cannot even afford to heat their homes) he'll probably fight it tooth and nail.

    Do stop with this deflection of assumptions on who the migrants are or why they are coming.

     

    The subject under discussion is the censoring of Gary Lineker for speaking up against the language used by Government in reference to migrants.

     

    It's simple isn't it. His employment contract says he shouldn't speak out on political issues.

     

    It's like if your contract says you must wear a green shirt. If you detest green shirts, you are perfectly free to go and work elsewhere.

     

    He signed the contract, so he should keep his mouth shut. Funny how you're suddenly pro free speech without any consequences.

     

    Taxing the public under the threat of jail time to run a state TV station that preaches a particular political ideology to the masses that pay their huge salaries sounds like something that would happen in China or N.Korea. Actually, now I'm starting to see why you approve of it.

    Ngozi was initially evasive and stated her charity location  , that was because she was cosplaying as being African and didn't want to reveal that she wasn't from Africa at all and that she was just dressed as being an African .

    Correct. Lady Hussey has a lot of experience working with African communities and charities and would have spotted Ngozi's (Marlene's) Cosplay a mile off. 

     

    She was curious about this fake act. Then of course Marlene didn't want to say where she was really from because she is a fraud. Just like her charity.

     

    Lady Hussey be like...

    A long winded way of saying "I have none."?

    Someone on here once asked how I knew Ash Sarkar was a communist. 

     

    I provided quotes from her saying "I am literally a Communist, you idiot". It still wasn't enough.

     

    So forgive me if I don't waste my day finding quotes from Gary saying "I am literally a socialist". It wouldn't be enough anyway. 

     

    Check his twitter feed if you think he isn't.

     

    Either way, I'm off for a massage. Ciao.

    There is a clause for social media, I just posted a link, however its complicated as he's also self employed and there is a dispute going on regards that and his tax. The BBC insisted some of its top paid stars go self employed, its led to big tax problems apparently. This from yesterday.

     

    If you're self employed are you also bound by the impartiality clauses?

     

    Inside Gary Lineker’s tax clash with the BBC, which has left him paying hundreds of thousands in legal fees

    There’s more to the row than tweets: Gary Lineker and the BBC are at loggerheads over his clash with HMRC

    https://inews.co.uk/inews-lifestyle/money/gary-lineker-tax-clash-bbc-paying-legal-fees-2201702

    Yes he is self employed to minimize the tax he pays. While collecting millions in salary from poor, working class taxpayers under the threat of jail, all while driving a 5 litre Benz around London and lording it up in Qatar during the world cup.

     

    A true socialist. Let's all have a round of applause for Gary.
