x-in-man Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Hey, it’s stops everyone talking about COVID, nice one Stu. Can you work for the BBC now, they need a change to reporting habits too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Says it all really. The communications commission/Home Affairs should really make sure that the station/programme is independent and can even talk about their own service issues. Corrin has now “accidentally” deleted it from IONN&P as well which is what he usually does when he gets a call from someone in government asking him to help them manage bad PR.

I like Stu, but he does have this self-destruct button that he seems to press every now and then. Of course the cardinal sin is frightening the horses, i.e, the advertisers. Why, oh why, can he not just keep away from anything controversial on air? If you start on this subject there's only one way its going to go.

China is a fucking disgrace on a huge amount of levels. The point is that the people who continually use phrases like that are doing so because they're overwhelmingly astonishingly thick. Is the absolute failure of huge parts of the western world to handle the pandemic the fault of China? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you start on this subject there's only one way its going to go. If you’ve heard the clip (it’s on FB now) it isn’t really that controversial. It seems like some sad teenager full of her own self righteousness and her silly student mates who have nothing to do currently have blown it up out of all proportion. It wasn’t a classic Stu Peters fauxpar of the inferior Jeremy Clarkson variety sadly. He even agreed with her at one point. This has all the classic signals of a #metoo “2” style social media trend about it. Everyone is jumping on board claiming they’ve been affected even if they’re very clearly white.

Did they order Boris to delay the UK lockdown by 3 weeks and pretend everything is fine? I am in no way defending the Thug State that the CCP operates, and am fully aware that they told lies early on and continue to do so. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't heard it, so I am very pleased that this is the case. The station should therefore stand by their man. Classic metootoo. I wonder was there an element of "agent provocateur" involved. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
