Excellent trolling from Ursula's mob as usual.

I thought this thread was clearly articulated & worth a read

"Spoon nonce"

If this uproar leads to Kuennsberg no longer unquestioningly tweeting out Cummings' narrative, it'll have been worth it. It probably won't though.

Like there's any chance they could find a rope strong enough.

Here's hoping

Saw that earlier and I was heartbroken

No one is claiming that. I don't think I've seen anyone state the the BBC is issuing instructions from on high. The problem is individual reporters who have a clear and apparent bias because they may or may not be sleeping with Boris Johnson. Also, I keep seeing people say "the BBC is far from perfect but..." And it's now coming over in the same way as "I'm not racist but..." because there is never any acknowledgement of where the BBC does fail. It's just a cursory remark they throw out there as a catch all for criticism. The reality is that if there isn't bias, there has been staggering incompetence which should absolutely see the lead political editor sacked amongst others in the interest of maintaining public trust. As any other organisation would probably do after that shitshow. So again, why isn't that happening? So my message to the BBC - if you want to trust, acknowledge your fuck ups and the implications of them, take remedial actions with the staff involved, and commit to a far higher standard going forward. If you aren't prepared to do that then just fuck off with these articles. Sorry mate but seriously, it's not excusable.

It is absolutely superb. The characters in the show are probably the biggest collection of selfish, unlikeable, irredeemable cunts ever seen since the last time you all had a Toontastic pissup.

Unfortunately I've read a couple of things which suggest Renton is right (shock horror I know) about shite like saluting the flag and a willingness to incinerate millions of people for no logical reason whatsoever (I think Ewerk said this as well). The same mentality had a big effect on the actual brexit ref as well - this idea of know-towing to the monarchy/empire and a nostalgia for olden (more white) years where Britain was more important. It's a hard one for the people trying to persuade them as the underlying xenophobia is the opposite of what Labour should be and is all about to the youth. Of course Blair played that game but Milliband certainly tried and seemed to fail the same doorstep test to a lesser degree than Corbyn. I think we do need someone who can play that role unflinchingly to counteract the media assassination - of the mooted candidates and can only really say Starmer succeeding.

Was getting pissed watching the Irishman last night and thought it was brilliant up until the point I fell asleep in the home stretch.

It wasn’t LK who said that but another BBC reporter did. Unless she said it after the election. Anyone with any degree of analytical ability knows what she’s like anyway though. Even going back to 2015, Paxman asked Miliband questions he would never have asked Cameron. At the same election looking awkward eating a bacon sandwich was enough for many to consider ‘Red Ed’ unsuitable for leadership so it shouldn’t really come as a surprise that people are easily taken in

"Eh where's Minder?! The Professionals?! Fucking Zulu. American bullshit love, I'm not paying for another month of this shit."

There was actually an incident. Kid who was sat behind me about 10mins in went out (i assume for a piss) came back in running and sat down. No drama's. Then a bloke from the cinema came in and asked to see his ticket. All I can think is he must have run so he didnt miss the film and they thought he was trying it on or summit. But the bloke from the cinema wasn't discrete at all. He was speaking at the top of his voice. I was about to gan radge but a bloke near us did it for me

Spoty is usually unmitigated crap (one of the lasses should’ve won it this year, DAS or KJT) but this is a clip from a doc about another of tonight’s winners. Very vaguely knew him 30 odd years ago, was the same then as he comes across now, despite his troubles....

Kirk FUCKING Douglas will still be kicking his height come NYE.

Heyman, I was just 15 in 1947 and was just learning about filth.

Did he have a conehead and stink of duck?

No, he's pining for the Fjords

Corbyn's Labour seemed to push them away much more than New Labour.

Ah Phil is back again, like a paedo on parole. [/Succession]

I'm sure Edwards thinks that, but there's still no believable explanation of the cenotaph/laughter episodes in my view. That's before considering the punch thing - admittedly that wasn't BBC alone but it came from the same area - "correspondents" happily acting as conduits for Cummings' lies.

I never realised you were Welsh Huw Gloomy.

Probably fair. Renton is a lot like Tom and not just in the sense that he swallow his own loads.

Him & the likes of Alan Tait and Gary Armstrong were all at Falcons in the 90s, obvs Steve Black was coach

Saw him do a talk in with Stevie Black at Blue Flames a few years back. He was hilarious

Didn’t she recently go bankrupt? Presumably because she can no longer fund the lifestyle she seems to think she’s entitled to. Also, I would’ve loved to see her reaction to Ben Stokes getting spoty

In a straight fight, Bodie would absolutely lace Doyle.

Happy birthday.............you old bastard 😉! Still supporting us after all that time too, worthy of a medal.

No pubes.

Journalists holding journalists to account is where we are at the fag end of the second decade of the second millennium...

See: West Ham/Bournemouth or Sheffield United/Southampton for reference.

Knight Ryder: "a Burnley fan had the audacity to say 'how do you watch that every week?' Ah couldn't believe what ah was hearing, here, like. Ah gans up to him, gives him the Ryder glare ah gave to them lippy cunts outside McDonald's who were asking iz forra 'tab mister' and telt im straight. 'Are yee for real, like?' his face went a bit funny and he walked off canny sharpish. Lol. You don't mess with the Knight. Laters." Twenty minutes later..... Burnley fan: "A wuh joking on with a couple of Geor-dayz about how crap the game, ah say, how crap the game was and one of them, a bald lad, said something ah just couldn't understand. Mind, ah understood he must've had a right good drink the night before and had a kebab of something cos his breath almost made me sick on the spot. Ah couldn't get away quick enough, ah tell ya."

Thank-you Ant, 87 and counting.

I’ve just had a shite so dense NASA have put it in the Small Bodies of the Solar System List. Minimal residues, three wipes and pristine. You’re very welcome.

Anyone still think Almiron should be dropped?

Give Bruce a chance

Ashley Barnes first half flies into a header leading with the elbow clattering into Schar “no menace in it you can tell”. Carroll second half same thing “you can see he knows what he’s doing just flies in wrecklessly he knows Mee is there, could have easily been a red card” the odd bit is Barnes is way more of a cunt and far more likely to do something like that as well.

Ronny Gill headline writer: "I need a shite. Lee, will you sort the puma headline for me?" Knight Ryder: "Nee bother, wor kid. I can see the headline now, 'Newcastle 2020-21 jerseys to be not made by puma!' Up here for thinking, doon there for dancing."

It’s all the Jews and the media’s fault, of course it is

Shame Corbyn and his crew couldn’t bring themselves to talk up ANY of Blair’s achievements in office. You know, that time when life this country was actually alright. There were even momentum videos putting Blair’s face alongside Cameron and May - as if he was a bad guy too. Disowning the most successful labour leader of a generation has been one of momentum’s biggest strategic fuck ups.

Talked to my Dad about this this morning as it happens. I think it was a huge issue. People in this country are naturally small c conservatives. The manifesto was way too ambitious. This is also true from a practical perspective. You can't turn on the money taps and spend efficiently over that timeframe.

And this is why, if you want people to come back to Labour, you forget about your period of self-reflection, immediately get shot of Corbyn, and thereby remove any implication that the new leader has just been installed by him.

I’m not sure there’s a vas deferens between them?
