Woke watch

Post arsene york-hunt »

"There is a very good section on GB news where the ludicrous idiocies of Wokeness are looked at I thought we would should have one for WHO. I'll start with Baptiste on BBC: In Hungary,an ambassador's family are kidnapped by Islamic terrorists and carry out atrocities. At the end of the last episode Baptiste finds out that it is a false flag operation and conveniently, the real culprits are white supremacists who want to stop all immigration. Coronation Street ITV a gay black footballer is stopped by the police, because he is driving an expensive car. He is pushed to the ground during an altercation, and damages his leg threatening his career. Could have been written by Dawn Butler or a BLM activist."

"Debs Most people in Australia are more than happy for more to be done for the indigenous population and when this referendum was announced it looked like it would be a straightforward and popular vote to get the constitution changed. Unfortunately, the government wasn't very forthcoming on how it would work, it was more or less a trust us on this we will give you the detail later!!! Then followed up by stuff that actually looked divisive in nature which didn't go down well, then we had a series of anyone questioning the proposal being branded racist and many of the aboriginals themselves not happy with the proposal, but the government would not listen and pressed ahead. Now they can't understand how it convincingly got rejected, all pretty sad really IMO."

"Because it institutionalised preferential privileges based on race. And unelected representatives at that. So it wasn’t democratic, and it was also racist."

Why did aborigines vote against that and why is giving aboririgines a strong voice in their own country a bad thing?

"The virtue signaling woke Australian Cricket team have been offered counseling if the referendum vote in Australia for a change in the constitution that would give a voice to Parliament for Aboriginal people failed. Well its failed and failed spectacularly with every state rejecting it, even a good portion of the Aboriginal community voted against this divisive proposition. The poor Lambs who have the honor to play for Australia (like many Celebs who also virtue signaled support) are supposedly devastated.............Boo fucking hoo. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/other/australian-cricketers-offered-counselling-if-yes-vote-isnt-voted-in/ar-AA1ibSDk"

No issue with Kegan being asked to keep his opinions to himself providing that those doing such asking do the same.

I make Keegan right. You're better off having a 16 year old lad talking about the mens games - their experience is much closer the mens game than that of an adult woman. if i played pro football and a woman started telling me what i should or should not have done i'd laugh in her face.

"I agree with him to an extent. Professional commentators and pundits like a Gabby Logan etc do a great job. The issue comes when female ex players make comments like “I’ve played in big games like this” or “when you are at the highest level I know this type of pressure” etc - they are not talking from a point of authority of reference and we all are supposed to believe them. It’s a bit odd. That being said, some of the female ex pros who really love the game and aren’t obviously focussed on their media career and image do a good job. Bottom line is, the game has to be good, no amount of commentary makes a shit game exciting whether it be a male or female commentator"

"""Kevin Keegan has been asked to “keep his opinions to himself”"" He's giving his opinion on people who's job it is to give opinions 😂 So many people can't handle anyone disagreeing or having any differing thoughts. As Churchil said ""Some people's idea of [free speech] is that they are free to say what they like, but if anyone says anything back, that is an outrage"" Many such cases"

King Kev onto the list of those who need canceling and who are a misogynist i suspect. I actually have him bang on with his comments about the lady pundits on the men's game.... https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/oct/05/kevin-keegan-asked-to-keep-his-opinions-to-himself-on-female-football-pundits Kevin Keegan has been asked to “keep his opinions to himself” after he was reported to have claimed female pundits were not convincing covering England men’s games. The former England manager and Newcastle legend reportedly told an audience in Bristol he had “a problem” with it because he didn’t think it was “the same experience”.

SurfaceAgentX2Zero 10:23 Sat Sep 30 We agree. Totally shaggable if no pillow talk afterwards. It's this thing of being a 6 but being arrogant enough to think your base level is a 9. Terrible practice.

The Seedish government have drafted in the army to assist police in trying to stem the gang violence that had gripped some of the big City's. 10 years ago it was one of the safest places on earth with one of the lowest crime rates. Guess there's a reason why this has happened but I'm fucked if i can work out how this place had descended into a playground for gangs and drug dealers. Guess the Swedes should be saying ' thanks Angela'.

Fo That is the reason that tthey are not held to the high standards of news channels. They are defined as an opinion lead entertainment channel which is why Ofcom give them far more leeway. Lee Anderson interviewing Suella Braverman might a stretch as they have got into trouble for that sort of thing before.

Fauxstralian 10:15 Sat Sep 30 GB News doesn't do series news debates though does it. That's not why its there. The notion that the channel has somehow deviated from its usual high standards would be laughable.

Not sure if true or not but read that when Fox went on his rant the GB News producer was in Wootons ear telling him to challenge him & wind the nonsense up. Didnt do it & ignored pleas to kick back against Fox Why a man in a supposedly serious news debate starts talking about whether he or others would SHAG the other contributor I have no idea
