@EklundElek@Mellor76 Easy to imagine your idea of TV that's more representative statistically - black and brown faces fewer and further between, nobody who arrived on a small boat, but a cast full of white people endlessly talking about them regardless...
@jamesrbuk@hugorifkind Guy who wasn't born at the time tells guy whose dad was a junior minister at the time what he thinks was or wasn't acceptable behaviour in 1984, incredible.. I'd suggest you pick more contemporary grievances but it's not as if they're any better connected to reality.
@StuartLock@RobinJPickering@MrDavidScales Some guy: *beats his wife*
Kindly bystander: You shouldn't do that
You: How do you discipline *your* spouse? If indeed you are even married! Ha!
@StuartLock@RobinJPickering@MrDavidScales I'm sure you think this is a gotcha, but the Internet contains over ten thousand school websites from up and down the country, with their behaviour policies and inclusion guidelines, and you would struggle to find any that would be compatible with this signage.
@WilliamWeirHere @SlippinJimmy411 @Deanpotter20 Sorry to tell you chief, but you're fantasising about killing a pair of ten year old boys here.. sounds to me like the irredeemable evil you've been so concerned about actually resides within *you*, and you should report to the nearest police station or clifftop immediately.
@daveunderwood @Haggis_UK Convention is to nod everything through but allow the HOL appointments committee to veto anyone they don't think suitable, which is basically what then happened.
He was being asked to bypass the convention in Boris's favour, and it's that that he declined..
@justleeuk@queenofalbany@lornypop Oh really? Where are those allegations?
He's pretty much down and out and still the only people coming forward with "the real truth" are Eamonn Holmes and Kerry Katona, oh to have lived such a spotless life that that's the best your detractors can do...
@lornypop A lot of people think that the frankly weird reaction people like you are having is over homophobia, but it's good of you to confirm that at its heart, you're simply unable to digest the idea that he jumped a queue and it's been eating away at you for the last year...
@xangma@ADHDUKcharity Yeah, I mean I know The One Show is an extremely different beast to Panorama, but it's hard to feel like the corporation as a whole is currently engaging in good faith with, well, anyone...
