And now Calvin Robinson's wandered off the cliff edge too: https://news.sky.com/story/laurence...its-of-acceptance-says-channel-chief-12972161 They're like lemmings.
Never mind. Paid contrarians are the one booming sector of the UK economy. There will be plenty more ready to step in. Like 30p Lee, due to interview Suella Braverman today. Because that’s properly holding to account isn’t it? The Chair of a Party interviewing their Home Secretary.
He'll no doubt blame cancel culture, but I don't really know what he was expecting when he was asked to take over from Wootton - but then said he wouldn't do the show without Wootton - obviously that's not gonna happen...
Calvin is a rather umpleasant religious fundamentalist, who has been saying more and more provocative things, basically stating that his religious beliefs are baseline law. Not necessarily a sackable offence, but I am not personally dissapointed if he has chosen to remove himself from the public forum. I don't like any extremism. And I don't watch GB News unless it gets pushed to me, but I can't think that getting rid of the pointless, boring as F, pub braggart, that is Fox, will result in a reduction in quality. Quite happy for him to leave the country too, if that is what he wants to do. But will he get away before GoBE gets to Ireland? Such threats seldom seem to pan out, but fox probably has an eye on America. Not sure he has any particular skill set that will generate user pull though. Nana Akua is hot though, like olives.
Fox has been nicked now: https://news.sky.com/story/laurence...e-in-his-home-shared-on-social-media-12976589 Ironically for the criminal offence of conspiracy.
A whole lot of wailing on the platform formerly known as ‘Twitter’ that you still have to call ‘Twitter’ because no one knows if ‘X’ means ‘Twitter’ or is just a random kiss being sent. Wailing about the repressive state and how Laurence is a victim and why don’t the Police leave him alone and catch some villains, but as others point out, it’s not very sensible to broadcast how you intend to do criminal damage and encourage others to also do it. It’s leaving the goal wide open for PC1984.
Good article by Marina Hyde on why X’s (Twitter) slide into disinformation matters. https://www.theguardian.com/comment...mas-war-elon-musk-x-twitter-not-fit-to-run-it
It is a real shame on so many levels. Not long ago you could get the real facts and opinions of genuine bonafide and verified experts in their fields. Now anyone with a few spare dollars gets a blue tick and are prioritised in any search. It's painted as being all about free speech but crazy opinions and made up information is now presented as fact. No wonder conspiracy loons from anti-vaxxers to climate change deniers (a lot of overlap there I know) are convinced that we are under the power of the WEF or lizardmen, or whatever, because they have read in on the internet.
Graham Linehan moves onto race, claiming ‘white artists’ can no longer become as famous as Sting. He’s an old man, so may be forgiven for being unaware of Ed Sheeran or Adele or Taylor Swift etc https://x.com/icanseeforever1/status/1712360953893748803?s=46&t=oqOMSJXE_g7J5C7kNPG9LA
There's two theories here, first is that Elon musk is a drug fuelled idiot who's slid into the right wing conspiracy world and genuinely believes this is the best way forward for twitter. Two: musk is still a drug fuelled idiot, but him or someone else has put him up to refining twitter into the ground so it's no longer a tool for journalists and opposition/activists in oppressive regimes around the world. Note how he has pushed back against the EU on disinformation this week, claiming open sour e and free speech, get when it's turkey or china etc "twitter/X follows local regulations"
Conspiraloonies have a politics and religion funfair in the States: https://www.latimes.com/politics/st...merica-trump-maga-qanon-christian-nationalism
How the **** does this **** continue to get cushy gigs as a talking head? He's clueless as a pundit and he's a dangerous conspiracy peddling loon away from that.
World events being orchestrated by religious nuts all getting a collective hard on for holy war end times or its a simulation and these events are inevitable and just part of the program. Hoping for the alien saviour DLC personally.
I dont know whats worse, the tweet linking the covid vax to his death or the fact he was selling those t-shirts with the Friends font on his website.
Christmas gets cancelled earlier and earlier each year. The Sun and the Mail both on this one. The Queen Mother’s Charity have had the temerity to call their Winter Market a ‘Winter Market.’ A nation spits its dummy out of the pram. https://x.com/lizzie_d30/status/1717425495120195995?s=46&t=oqOMSJXE_g7J5C7kNPG9LA
Yes, I believe it exists too. There is quite substantial evidence for it, which is, in a way, ironic.
