"Toyboy"? What the fuck is that about?

compare what happened to Laura K when she was criticised by the BBC trust for misquoting J Corbyn

(she was given full backing by her managers)

[Nefertiti2]

This isn't quite correct

People are allowed to be very right wing at the BBC

They are allowed to actively campaign against trans rights.

"Toyboy"? What the fuck is that about?

It's the Mail on Sunday

Brammar is 38, Waterson is 31

It is shoddy and embarrassing even by the dregish standards of this campaign of character assassination

Apart from anything else, they charge €3,000, with no promise that it won't happen again next week. Who's to say that the squatters and the company aren't in cahoots anyway, sounds ripe for a scam.

Wtaf?

Is this a return to the fucking 70s?

I presume that there were some people who didn't just answer no.

[Antepli Ejderha]

I hate the term banter, I really fucking loathe it, because it allows people to say offensive things and then say it was only banter.

Andrew Marr to leave BBC for LBC to 'get my own voice back'

[Snake Plissken]

Isn't it fucking weird how someone who has been on primetime television for so long presenting political shows under their own name have done it for so long without actually being able to say what they think? I mean, Andrew Neil had a magazine and two of the three highest profile shows of their type on the BBC every single week and he was completely and utterly stifled throughout.

[Benjm]

It's just as well that these twats occasionally have hissy fits and forget just how pampered and indulged they are by the BBC, otherwise the only way they'd ever leave is feet first and a couple of decades even further past their use-by dates.

[Walt Flanagans Dog]

As noted in the Mundane Thread a while back, the Queen's eventual demise was said to be a reason for Marr sticking around at the BBC, as he was working on the commemorative broadcasts, so maybe they've got round that by, y'know, just getting someone else to do the voice over.

BBC Wales have put out a news story slamming the A&E waiting times in NHS Wales. During a pandemic. While social care has evaporated leaving hundreds of old people marooned in hospital. And when they let antivax plandemicists on the air "for balance".

That all feels a bit weird given that she died a few weeks ago and they're just keeping it under wraps until all the succession stuff is in order.

[Eggchaser]

This is the scuttlebutt on Twitter, so it must be true.

[ooh aah]

Oh, you mean until they do away with Charles?

He's not going until the New Year, so t could all fit together I suppose.
