Lineker's social media comments 09:09 - Mar 8 with 11777 viewsTrequartista

I understand Lineker is a high profile presenter for a public broadcaster, and he mildly irritates me on motd, but for goodness sake, is it not obvious that freedom of speech has to apply to everyone.

He's not broadcasting these views on the Ten O'Clock News. I think that those who cite cancel culture as a thing (as i do) and then think Lineker should be silenced over this (as i don't) are a perfect example of those 'fighting the culture wars' for want of a better description.

Not sure wether to laugh or cry at that. It's got to the point where I'm beginning to struggle to separate genuine UK news from an episode of The Day Today. I was half expecting her to try an justify the use of bomb dogs next


Quite - I'd done about 3 facepalms until I realised halfway through that it's a comic act & she's not an MP. So terribly (literally) realistic, got to applaud her & her production team.

“pig thick sociopaths.”

Those Tories have a lot in common with pandemic deniers eh?

Bet that was posted without a hint of irony. Fantastic.


Nice one though I'm not running the country, and I didn't vote Tory. While Tories partied, the country gave me a weekly clap. So your post only really serves to say you voted Tory and still can't face what you've done. Fantastic.

Another angry and appalled Tory voter staggers from the cave, squinting at the brightness of new illumination but with eyes now open to the social problems they've caused by voting for pig thick sociopaths. Huzzah!


Hmmm. That post suggests you're not as 'new' as your posting history suggests?

Which banned former poster are you? Your covid denial would suggest Pazell.

Didn't you tell us about how you'd always voted Tory, just yesterday? Now you're appalled at exactly what any critic of the tories has pointed out for years. Slide to fascism. No former knowledge required.

It was about as witty as I’d expect from a simpleton (sorry ‘free thinker’) who believes in conspiracy theories.

I’ll leave you to go cry about lockdown and masks.

Is Laura Kuensberg no longer in their employment? Clarkson? Andrew Neill? John Humphries? No one? Really?


Is there much evidence Laura favours left or right? I know she's been accused of bias by both sides a lot in the past.

My gut tells me she values her contact list more than she does a political camp.

What are you going on about? I locked down, and masked up when out and about helping society on the pandemic front line.

Keep making chippy little gripes if they help you with whatever your issue actually is, but I'd personally recommend not getting too upset at the opinions of morons on a msg board.

So long and thanks for the claps.

Whilst Braverman is now saying she is offended by what Lineker has said because she has a Jewish husband, good to see the Board of Deputies of British Jews condemning her proposals.

Some of the replies to the Tweet are rather depressing.

Lineker's social media comments on 10:45 - Mar 9 by itfcjoe

There was an interesting point made on News Agents - that the Conservative Govt has managed to force the BBC into believing they are totally out of step with general populace (as evidecned by Brexit) that the impartiality the senior appointments have is described as being the 'voice of the people' inside the organisation and therefore not impartial.

But to try and untie that from the biased right wing media is impossible - some interesting polling out yesterday - that at time of Brexit referendum, legal migration was seen as the biggest issue the country is facing. Now legal migration, despite having risen since Brexit is now only seen as an issue by 9% of people.

Amongst 2019 Tory voters, the small boats crossing is now seen as a bigger issue than NHS waiting times, and Ambulance response times.....the only thing more important at the moment is the cost of living crisis.

So 40k people coming to a country of 78 million is a bigger issue than an NHS waiting list being 2 years longer than it should be


like you say they messed up the n.h.s public transport, can't get to grips with the economy
crisis, had at least 6 years to sort out the small boats problem , allowing our rivers to be used as sewers, test and trace fiasco .ppe sleaze , but linker is the devil according to the torries

On a slight tangent, worth a watch 😂 -



WTAF?!?!

I thought that surely had to be some sort of Two Johns parody sketch.
Holy mother of God. We're well and truly fudged with these charlatans at the helm.
Sad thing is. No is surprised or bothered.
Where's the outcry about this car crash of an interview?
No. The narrative being pushed is to keep it about Lineker rather than the actual issue.
I'm astonished some here are still digging out Lineker, when it's absolutely clear where our collective ire should be focused.

Distortion becomes somehow pure in its wildness.

Edit: I see you've already just been put right & enlightened!

But as also said, it's quite an indictment that it's hard to tell truth from parody nowadays when it comes to this disgusting bunch of tory criminals unfit to govern.

Hmmmm.
You spend a lot of time speculating on new poster’s identities.
Less generous posters might consider you to be a rather busy little stirrer….
