The BBC are being bashed again by the privately owned media. This time over the rapper Bob Vylan at Glastonbury.
What a shock! Those who make money from their content, and push their owners’ political agendas, want “free” content from the Beeb stopped!
The BBC do not get everything right, no one possibly could, but for my money, they are better than most.
And what of this instance? Protest all over the MSM, and dear old Auntie Beeb is wringing her hands, but although the chant to “kill the IDF” was controversial would the same fuss be made if it was “Kill the Russian army”?
Headlines about a chant from some singer, whilst the IDF again bombed Gaza and civilians queuing for food, and sheltering in schools were again killed.
Should the live Glasto performance been on a delay? So anything too strong for the outraged readers of the Daily Fail etc would not be upset? Yes, the Beeb missed an obvious trick.
Is it the commercial rivals of the Beeb, making a drama out of a few words? Of course it is.
What made me laugh, was the fact that this apparently so awful chant that outraged the delicate ears of some was repeated ad nauseam throughout the day on every news programme and in other discussions.
Even as I type this it is on the radio again right next to me, apparently the chief rabbi has instigated it by complaining.
Again those against the actions of the IDF, and the illegal actions of the State of Israel, are being accused of antisemitism.
A chant of “Death, death to the IDF” is possibly an incitement to violence and should be investigated as such. Leave it to the courts to decide.
Meanwhile the IDF itself shrugs it’s shoulders and carries on. And let’s be clear the IDF actions, are against the will of some Israelis and Jews.
Jeez I didn’t think anybody outside the field of members and promoters teying to make it look like a cosy 1950s style homely set up actually used that phrase.
Must be a Lefty thing.
Yeah well with your political views they would be.
Hmmm maybe not, given their record in Ukraine, or in fact in history
But why choose the irrelavant (in this case) Russian Army…just to embellish your point that little bit more?
A more appropriate analogy,.and absolutely a relavant one would be.some f/wit like him shouting … ‘Kill all Palestinians’‘’ or ‘‘Kill all Moslems’’ ..and yeah you can sure as hell bet your house that there would be one HELL of a …‘‘fuss’’, and then some.
The 2 tier policy in this country would be in overdrive and Mr Vylan’s feet would not touch with Kier’ and his fast track to jail party trick in only ‘certain’ cases.
THAT is the main issue here, we are all used to the BBC left wing agenda, so is anybody REALLY surprised that they showed this knob gobbing off on stage…and knew exactly what they wete doing !
Now in the unlikely event that Tommy Robinson was on stage on Saturday, performing the ‘‘Yaxley Lennon rap re.mix’’…, THEN the BBC would have been on the ball with their usual selective censorship and non broadcast.
POSSIBLLY??
It’s sure as hell a bigger (and definitely more public) incitement to violence than what that gobby old bird is doing 3 years inside for, and she took it down before anybody saw it…has this f/wit came out and apologised, or retractedit?
Nah…he knows he will only get a rap (no pun) on the knuckles …with a plethora of publicity and promotion, so win win for him, whilst she still suffers abuse and lher freedom gone in jail.
But again …all down to the socialist Lefty govt s 2 tier system on…well everything really.
Yep keep on using a thread about the BBC as a vehicle to push your lefty agenda official line.
Nothing new there.
Patheticlly transparent
Well it certainly. did not outrage my ‘‘delicate ears’’, I actually saw it live on tv and thought ‘‘what a D1ck’’ before switching him over…to another act on another stage with a modicum of musical talent.
And yeah it did suffer a bit of overkill.on the news…but being that dedicated news channels are on a loop I can’t really see your point, every item is repeated constantly…so not just that one to make a special point after all… as you suggest.
As for the Chief Rabbi getting his twisty curls in a knot about all this by putting in a complaint of outrage…what is so funny about that?
Of course he has, why wouldn’t he?..
It’s his gig to do so.
Indeed it does, it is sickening every single day yet another list of the tens of those killed while the IDF say it is ‘investigating’.
But what gets me is, if it is so awful a phrase to use, how come someone on the BBC repeats it at least twice every hour and often more frequently. Whoever the bloke was on the stage who chanted it, his reference to it pales in comparison to the endless chants on the BBC.
BTW I don’t follow Glastonbury so wouldn’t have known about it without the news, but, relaxing in the heat the other day and couldn’t be bothered to reach for the remote, I endured more than half an hour of that English/professional Scottish, ancient apparition of Rod Stewart prancing sweatily about and realised, if I needed it, why I don’t watch Glastonbury.
We are no doubt supposed to believe that Starmer hasn’t put pressure upon the Police to come to the “right decision” in their investigations into both incidents, given both his family’s religious convictions and his public posturing about banning one act before the event.
Yes, it was just that posturing that got such a large crowd for the ‘offensive’ Bob V, because Kneecap were on next and I believe they were being ‘investigated’ for something. Talk about foot in mouth and shooting yourself in said foot at the same time, that prat has really got it covered.
The crowd to see Kneecap got to 30,000 people so the security staff refused entry to anyone trying to get in later by putting in extra barricades, barriers,this meant Bob Vylan had a much larger crowd than what was expected.
I watched a few minutes of that Charlie bird but the Mrs said turn it off as it was like a p@rn movie, she spread herself out on a glass platform with a camera underneath that revealed all.
Glastonbury Festival organisers are hypocrites with their publicity of save the planet and Greenpeace, save the environment when helicopters were landing every 5 minutes at a cost of £13,000 for a return flight from London.
The bigger and more luxurious helicopters could have been chartered for £16,000 or more per hour but you do get a bottle of Champagne and a hamper.
On the Flight Radar website most of the collections were from very large able farms from all over the country, all with large mansions and big swimming pools, the majority from the counties of Berkshire, Oxfordshire,Kent,Surrey and Sussex,
I had quite a bad experience at Glastonbury myself… was climbing the fence and ALMOST got over, when a security guard grabbed my leg and dragged me back down and made me finish watching Rod Stewarts set
I think it for the Courts to decide. That seems to be the British way.
Of course I realise that from past comments you prefer to ignore UK and other courts and decide the truth of the matter from what is printed in the Sun etc. (Michael Jackson, if I remember correctly?)
The “gobby old bird”? The 41 year old Lucy Connolly?
“Took it down before anybody saw it”? You think that none of her ten thousand followers did see it? Well if so you are wrong.
“He added that in the three-and-a-half hours between Connolly publishing and deleting the post, it was “widely read”, having been viewed “310,000 times with 940 reposts, 58 quotes and 113 bookmarks”.”
She received 31 months after pleading “Guilty” to inciting racial hatred.
Yep maybe so, but I think it’s a safe bet that a chant of ‘‘Death to’’… anybody does not mean they are being invited to tea…
As for the ‘‘British way’’ with this government, we all know how that is, I certainly no longer have any confidence in ‘The British Way’’ under this bunch of circus clowns.
Michael Jackson?..
wtf are you slavering about now man ?
Have you been doing one of your famous ‘‘in depth investigations’’ into my past posts, and found something I said about him in …2007?.
Tell ya what, don’t answer I don’t care.
Get a life.
Never bought a copy of The Sun since about 2005.
Could not give a flying ■■■■ if nobody or the whole world saw it,
She should not have beem sent to jail, we don’t live in E.Germany in the 60s…although Starmer is doing a bloody good job so far in only 12 months of emulating that situation.
You have bothered to investigate the figures?
Who tf cares?..ok fair enough, you’ve convinced me she should have been executed in that case.
No doubt after being advised to plead guilty (never thinking in a million years she would be jailed.)
No doubt after a ‘‘pointer influence’’ from Starmer to his ex colleague cronies in the infamous British Establishment, in order to avoid a jury, when abybody with a modicum of common sense would not have advocated jail for her.
She is purely and simply a political prisoner to illustrate a deterrent…just like the protestors caught in with the d/heads who were rioting in Southport.
But no doubt in your usual role as useful idiot you will poo poo and refute that theory as ‘‘nonsence’’ after kow towing to the official narrative…as per usual.
To use a variation of one of your own put down phrases…
'‘Here boy, good boy, sit’
Yeah you’re right mate… I wasn’t aware…
Why would I be?.., I aint that interested, I still aint in fact tbh.
I thought we were talking about events in the UK and how things are dealt with, in much different ways depending on political views, racial demographics, religion and class …which I AM interested in.
Ok?
Yeah I heard that poor old Rod was getting a bit of stick off the lefties for his display of support for Farage and Reform.
One left wing paper did not give so much a review of his performance …more a complete character assasination.
The Lefties always get a bit pis5y if you don’t agree with their views, THAT is when you KNOW something or someone has got under their skin…(as I keep telling Franglais.)
