Lineker's been reported for "extolling Hamas terrorist"

not sure why they've chosen now to launch these complaints.

 

 

 

 

 

 

He saw a tweet saying someone had been murdered and retweeted it with the comment "how awful".

 

Anyone who thinks murder is awful is clearly extolling a terrorist.

Hes also a bit of a prat if the truth be told, ive always found him to be a smarmy cunt to be honest. Fair dos for him speaking up about the migrants and the tories however

 

I remember having a rant about him on here a few years back, and calling him a virtue-signaller or words to that effect. Yes, I'm not his biggest fan (although I respect his achievements), but for me this isn't about Lineker per se, but about someone in the public gaze being censured by an organisation for criticising government policy, under pressure from the government, on the grounds of 'impartiality', when that same organisaton has let numerous comments supportive of the same government and against their opposition run without censure. And when that organisation is infested with Tories among its top brass.

 

This is all a bit North Korean for my liking, and if nothing else, it's flushed out the free speech turds, the self-proclaimed small-staters, in the Conservative party and elsewhere, for the frauds they are. TBF, I have noticed some that have remained consistent.

I think that's why there has been such support for him.

Just because you work for the bbc shouldn't mean you can't be of the opinion that the Tories,are not a set of utter cunts.

Jeremy Hunt to Laura Kuenssberg this morning on BBC impartiality: "I have no idea who you voted for in the last election and that's right"

 

Take a wild guess sherlock,

[Gnasher]

They deffo doing a bit of a Corbyn on Lineker. Worked last time.

He wasn't murdered though, that's the point.

More gaslighting from Shapps. That's all they've got left.

The point is that he saw - and responded to - a tweet saying that he was.  Do you (or anyone else slagging him for this) genuinely believe that he knowingly "extolled" a terrorist?

No, but if your response is to block Jews who politely point this out rather than acknowledge your mistake, then perhaps you're not being reasonable.

Did he do that?

 

Did he

a). Only block Jews who pointed out the error?

b). Block people who pointed it out politely?

 

(Genuine question; this is the first I've heard of this.)

David Lammy, sounding like he spent his Saturday night chasing the dragon.

I'm conflating two tweets of his. He definitely didn't correct his mistake, however the blockings came shortly after another similar bullshit tweet he accepted at face value.

OK, same two questions about the blockings arising from this other tweet.

As you can see I am hardly armed with the full array of facts here. I just remember being disappointed that he didn't acknowledge anyone who pointed out that it wasn't a murder but a shootout with security forces. It was a bit snide.

I'm looking forward to attempt #3 of why the BBC and the Tories were correct

The way you phrased your claim about him "blocking Jews who politely pointed out" his error is a clear insinuation of anti-Semitism. Probably best to get the full array of facts before doing that.

I watched that GB news channel for the first time ever last night. Sweet Jesus my eyes. They did an alternative MOTD it was great banter it really was. For anybody who’s never watched it keep it that way, hideous Chanel.

The James O Brian versus Mike Graham is one of the best ongoing twitter feuds Graham is obsessed, really puts in the work.

It looks clear cut. Calling a broadcaster a paedo apologist is pretty damaging to their reputation. This is the problem with being a shock jock, it’s a high wire act with no safety net. Eventually you libel someone or say something so outrageous you fall off.

And why are they dragging it back into the light now?
