Woke watch

[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."

"Genuinely amazed that the ""case"" against Vaughan got as far as the ludicrous panel, and was dragged out as long as this. There was not a shred of uncontested and corroborative evidence against him. It was hearsay, circumstantial fluff and the inconsistent testimonies of a tiny group of mates with gripes and/or business links. It wasn't a court case, of course, but the 'evidence' had to be assessed in a similar way. The panel seems to have come to the right conclusion, given those circumstances. But, genuinely, they could have dismissed this ages ago on the very same basis as today's findings. Instead, because of the wider YCCC issues, they've made a point of overdoing the ""let's give this serious consideration"" show. Whole thing was a farce. There have been some deeply racist things said by some players and coaches (not Vaughan, I should add). But one of them, of course, was Rafiq in his antisemitic tweet. So all that's happened in the case against Vaughan is that the accuser has come out of it with a worse record for racism."

"If anyone wants to know how ridiculous and shady this accusation was, someone thick like Ray for instance, just go and read the transcripts from the court witnesses. And furthermore, what was said from Asian players without business links to Rafiq. Vaughan should go after them, big time. However, he'll probably just want to move on."

[BRANDED]

Accusing someone of racism years after someone purportedly said something slightly innocuous really seems a tad vindictive to be honest.

"So, does Vaughan get his livelihood back now?"

"I’m Not a wokey at all but good in them for doing this, hopefully more wealthy organisations will give back to the elements of society that they used to build their wealth."

[The Ghost of Sven]

Always seemed a fairly low key case of 'racism' with a very unreliable & flawed accuser. The verdict appears to be like the Scottish 'not proven' rather than guilty or not guilty.

"I find it hard to see how what Vaughan is alleged to have said is racist and now the committee looking into it have conclude, on the balance of probabilities, that Vaughan never says it anyway.. The complainant is clearly vexatious in my mind especially as Yorkshire Cricket have only found confirmation of seven of his forty three allegations. Enormous damage has been done to the reputation of decent man affecting both his family and finances and he has little chance of getting back to where he was before the allegation."

[Eerie Descent]

"Of course it was never in doubt, there was more holes in the accusation than a block of Swiss cheese."

[ray winstone]

''Michael Vaughan cleared 'on balance of probabilities' of using racist language towards Azeem Rafiq'' Ever in doubt?

Dunno how that apostrophe got in there. I was sure I backspaced it. Pesky keyboards.

Of course the Guardian can do whatever the fuck with it's money as long as it is legal. And we are free to discuss their motivation for doing so. Especially as there would be no reason for them to spend their money in this way if they didn't want us to do so.

[Side of Ham]

"Yes it is Fo, but hopefully they’ve made it clear this country already more than pulls it weight in helping the less fortunate globally….."

[Fo the Communist]

Isn't The Guardian free to do whatever the fuck it wants with it's money as long as it's legal?

Hasn’t the U.K. spent the last 130 years paying reparations?

"Not sure what the Guardian are trying to achieve prove here? Would have though the best thing they could do is pay for the repatriation, should they feel it important, of those descendents, back from whence they came, so they could continue their bloodline in their ancestor's place of birth. Minus, of course, the costs of all/any benefits those descendent have utilised whilst off-shored in the west."

"Well on the one hand well done the Guardian for donating to help those less fortunate, on the other hand what a bunch of virtue signalling CUNTS. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2023/mar/28/guardian-owner-apologises-founders-transatlantic-slavery-scott-trust The owner of the Guardian has issued an apology for the role the newspaper’s founders had in transatlantic slavery and announced a decade-long programme of restorative justice. The Scott Trust said it expected to invest more than £10m (US$12.3m, A$18.4m), with millions dedicated specifically to descendant communities linked to the Guardian’s 19th-century founders."

There are 7.5 billion people on this planet consuming much of its resources. Perhaps transgender and woke identities are nature's way to stop making so many useless infestations of human beings?
