On the subject of BBC bias, I’d just say that I’m pretty sure they haven’t had the same kind of conversation with regular contributor Sharron Davies that they’ve had with Robin outlined below.
Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

I’m sorry if christmas is christian someone needs to explain where in christian theology santa, trees and tinsel fits in
Absolute arsehole. I work in a London school as a teacher where 40 to 50% of the students are Muslim. What happens at Christmas? The classes decorate their rooms, organise secret santas, exchange Christmas cards with all participating. It is very much seen as a community festival for all.

it’s instructive what sort of speech the bbc finds problematic and what sort of speech it finds absolutely fine. note, e.g., the complete lack of interest in alan sugar’s blatant racism.

I’m old so I saw loads of stuff in cinemas. it’s been interesting watching stuff with the kid on tv and seeing how clanky something like e.g. wild at heart looks, whereas the cinema experience was incredible
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

I remember my friend simon telling me he’d stopped managing ‘indie’ bands and moved into metal cos the fans are more loyal and buy the merch. it was super interesting being at a (sort of) metal show. everyone was super into it and dedicated. we were all there to get something done.

being ‘deeply uncomfortable’ with normal healthcare that has been enormously beneficial to the people who need it is utterly disqualifying. it’s nothing more than bigotry.
@lbc.co.uk posted this clip on X this morning, but for some reason decided not to post here (not enough Wes Streeting sycophants on Bluesky)???

It’s incredibly worrying that Wes seems to be running on ‘feelz’, because it definitely isn’t based on ‘evidence’ or ‘clinical advice’ as he claims! 😣

caught myself taking this guy seriously for a minute and then remembered he’s a lib dem. you guys presided over a decade of social murder unprecedented since the second world war so don’t think you have any right to the moral high ground.
Yes, Starmer is bang average for the amount of cunt for a Labour MP. Not being a cunt has got a lot of Labour MPs kicked out. Any replacement for Starmer is likely to be a bigger cunt.

So why hate him personally? Save that for the ones that are worse than the party, like Streeting.

I almost don’t have the heart because … this isn’t really wrong! by the time the election came around he’d completely trashed his ‘ten pledges’ and yeah, people should’ve known what they were voting for. it was an effective subterfuge.
I don't like this government, I didn't vote Labour because they were committed to being too right wing for me. But they've not broken any of their promises from the election, they're doing exactly what they said they would and people didn't hate them in July 2024, so what's changed?

I find people like this absolutely bizarre. are you living in a little hedgehog house
I mean, I have no idea why people hate Starmer so much, but I've come to accept it as a fact.

Israel is still throttling the aid supply to Gaza. And Britain is still supplying Israel with arms and maintaining normal diplomatic relations. The genocide continues, as does British complicity. 26 months and counting.

Yesterday, MPs held a 1.5 hours debate on foreign interference in Britain. Mentions:

Russia - 128
China - 32
Israel - 2 in passing, one saying it is an “ally”.

A quarter of MPs and a third of the Cabinet have received funding from the Israel lobby.
