Woke watch
"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."

Re: Woke watch
Around 20 years ago Bristol City Council paid an astronomical amount of money to remove Banksy graffiti from a bridge on the M32, 100k IIRC. Which was completely pointless as the whole area concerned was covered in graffiti and still is.
And now whenever graffiti is removed from anywhere in Bristol, the same council has issued instructions to leave his stuff as it is.
So essentially they wasted 100k on getting rid of something, that if it had been left alone, they'd now be promoting as a tourist attraction.
Still, lesson learnt and all that, so why not waste another few hundred grand on rainbow crossings across the city. Not like they're so strapped for cash that they have to close libraries and centers for the deaf etcetcetc

Re: Woke watch
How can it cost £50k to paint a zebra crossing even in multiple colours?
Surely that can't be real.
If it is real I'm setting up my LGTBQAFDFFAFA+ zebra crossing company tomorrow morning. I'll do it for £49,500.

Re: Woke watch
Hmm, so burning your own copy of the Quran is a criminal offence but desecrating a Nations flag whilst living in the same Country is perfectly acceptable.
It's the outright hypocrisy that gets me. Some would dare say it looks suspiciously like Two Tier Policing....

As Andrew Doyle says, if the book was the personal property of the bloke, he should be able to dispose of it in any way he sees fit. In a state where real freedom existed, you would have this right,no questions asked. So next time someone insists that our freedoms haven't been curtailed, tell them politely to get fucked!

i dont think he'd have been arrested for burning a bible.If it was a muslim burning a bible, would it have been same outcome? A part of me feels they may have been led on their way and told to go home.
Of course they would have been let off. The FREE PALESTINE mentalists have been burning the UK flag without any repercussions. From my point of view (I'm not religious) it's the same, if not worse.
Made me laugh seeing the BBC press Farage for an apology for him him highlighting that a pakistani MSP is massive racist, when the video is all there for us to see with our own eyes.

Re: Woke watch
Of course he is, it was obvious to everyone with eyes.
Hopefully the IOC get sued to kingdom come and back over this.
Given that no women would have knowingly endangered themselves by willing taking these fight there's surely legal cases for misrepresentation, fraud etc possible?

Re: Woke watch
There was a trade route from Scandinavia to the Muslim world and I think that there were vikings who also used to form part of an elite fighting unit, that used to protect Sultans of the Ottoman Empire centuries ago. I’d be surprised if many converted to Islam though. Maybe the writers of that article are confusing Viking’s with people from the Balkans? Many of whom were taken from their families at an early age and forced to convert.
I suspect as well that article conveniently overlooks the fact that a fair chunk of that early trade came in the shape of slaves. Because that wouldn’t be palatable and of course it’s only Britain that has to be hauled over the coals for all of that kind of stuff…

“a very diverse group of people”
Any evidence of similar history re-writing in other cultures?
Maybe Asian Islamic states claiming they only converted to that religion to con the Arabs out of their oil revenue, or black Africans really "tricked" dumb white Europeans into giving them free transportation to what became America?
Oh, and any ancestral DNA evidence that doesn't align with a chosen belief is obviously AI-generated fake news.

Re: Woke watch
I tend to agree with the sentiment on the direction the meaning of woke is heading; it used to be genuingly LOL.
Some of the contortions that the majority of society were being asked told to accept so as to not hurt the feels of a handful of gobby, entitled cunts would challenge the most competent of Thai masseuses.
