Where is the 'poor me card being played there?
It's more of a, 'I have a different opinion - so I'll ridicule yours.

I wouldn't waste your time, Stephen. They are always holier than thou and never wrong

They say a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, but it's not one half so bad as a lot of ignorance. Terry Pratchett

F**k me, Terry Pratchett! And I hang on his every word.............

The prat bit is right though.

You have such a way with words you should go on C**tdown Stephen.

Kipper was playing it droning on about how social media has a left wing bias, which there isn't any empirical evidence for. And you did it when Tommy Robinson was arrested and you were convinced it was part of some conspiracy against right wingers in this country.

There are none so blind as those that will not see.

The Left think the BBC has a right-wing bias - which at the top of the organisation is mathematically true, with the likes of Kuenssberg and Nick Robinson bearing witness to the fact.
The Right think the BBC has a left-wing, 'woke' bias - which has an element of truth as creative people tend to be left leaning & liberal/progressive.
Trouble is, everyone is so used to living in their little echo chambers that 'biased' now equals 'expressing views I don't agree with'.
Whichever side of the fence you sit on.
On balance, I think they do a half-decent job of navigating very choppy waters.

But we want to know... Who is Sid?

I think my editing finger got in before your wisecrack finger.
Sorry about that.

Is that your idea of a proper reasoned argument backed up by facts, Goodlad?

Haha, it gets funnier, you make me laugh when you get cross.

Robinson is banned from London. For what? Having breakfast in a pub.

Probably ordered baked beans with it.
Which, as we all know, is the act of a barbarian.

I like that song he did years ago

"Sing if you're glad to be gay ?"
