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."

"Sky Sports are doing a junior presentation of the Liverpool vs Brentford match which involves 4 youngsters presenting, interviewing and analysing the game. Great idea. You can guess the race of the 4 chosen though."

"The Tories are an absolute shower of shit but my god if and when Labour get in we will be fucked especially if you have white skin, you’ll be the ones expected to pay for their plans to give more to black communities. There is nothing a white person can do in this country that a black person can’t in fact I’d say you have it better now if your skin isn’t white. Prove me wrong."

"A study by academics has accused the BBC of consistent bias, and provided pretty conclusive examples. Apologies it's a Daily Mail link, but it appears that it's the only one Google will share, and you have to be very specific in the search. It doesn't seem that any other news outlet is bothered, they were absolutely obsessed with what some old woman said a couple of weeks ago, but not this. Weird.

"I am firmly in W4’s camp. On a point of principle I will not watch Strike because it turns out that the lead, Tom Burke, has two good and complete legs yet he plays the part that should be filled instead by an amputee actor."

Re: Woke watch
w4hammer In general I agree with you 100%. I just don't agree with you on this particular programme for the reasons I explained. If you read the book then you'll see clearly that the two woke characters in that scene were supposed to be twats. The male character did indeed embarrass the woman friend but that was because he was a bit pissed and went a bit far. But it didn't come across at all to me that he was wrong in what he was saying - just that he was a bit pissed and didn't pull his punches.

"Ive been called many things- professionally angry? thats a first- thanks !! I think the example you use is a litle less complex than you outline- its purpose was to show him embarrassing himself and humiliating Robin - the targets could have been anything / one - it just happneed to be a couple of woke millenials in my view if you don’t call out the absurdity of this kind of ""progress"" at every turn, you are more or less complicit"

Re: Woke watch
"w4hammer I watched it and I think you're just professionally angry. There was a scene where the amputee (an ex soldier) tears into a woke young ""woman of colour"" and her equally pretentious white male friend basically for being woke, paedo excusing twats... and because she'd slagged off the army and he defended them and asked if we should have sent a philosopher into Afghanistan and how would that have gone after 9/11. The two woke twats in that scene were clearly the ones meant to be idiots. It was a brilliant scene. There are multiple sympathetic white characters in the programme. You're just looking for reasons to be offended. JK Rowling got dog's abuse for the book (that was turned into the tv programme) because it was insufficiently woke. JK Rowling is definitely not QUeen of Woke. She gets regular death and rape threats from all the wokies."

Re: Woke watch
"Maths professors at top UK universities will warn ministers on Thursday that academics are too scared to challenge damaging attempts to “decolonise” the curriculum. A dozen leading academics have written to Claire Coutinho, the Education Minister, calling for more protections for free speech at universities, where many professors fear it is too “personally risky” to challenge the decolonisation agenda. For maths degrees, professors are being pressured to explain how they are presenting a “multicultural and decolonised view” of the subject. In a recent consultation, the Quality Assurance Agency, which advises universities on course standards, said maths professors need to “present the work of a diverse group” of mathematicians, and ensure students are aware if they had “connections to the slave trade, racism or Nazism.” A group of professors will warn on Thursday that such guidance “risks politicising the subject of mathematics and presenting a skewed perspective on its history.” 'Personally risky' They said in a joint letter, seen by The Telegraph, that it also “infringes on the academic freedom of mathematicians to teach their subject according to their best professional judgement”. However, they warned that academics “who challenge orthodoxies on topics such as gender identification and diversity face physical intimidation from student activists”. “Many mathematicians see it as personally risky to suggest that 'decolonising the curriculum' might not be the best way to encourage more Black and minority ethnic people to take up mathematics,” they added."

Stick to football love because biology isn’t your strong point. It’s the way it is but clearly she thinks men should apologise for women having periods. This country is so fucked up by these woke idiots.
