"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."

"This should boost viewing figures......(BBC) EastEnders' first ever drag queen is due to sashay on to Albert Square as a regular character. Fans have been given a sneak peek at Tara Misu, played by Matthew Morrison. Matthew said it was a privilege ""to showcase the creative art of drag"" to viewers and the residents of Walford and to ""represent the LGBTQIA+ community"". ""It's important for people to feel reflected on screen,"" he added. He's joined the cast in the role of Felix Baker, the younger son of Mitch Baker's estranged brother Avery. 'Normalise queer community' Lucas Young, a drag queen by the name of Ms Classpergers who uses the pronouns she/they, says it's significant for a show as big as Eastenders to be ""unapologetically dealing with these issues"". It could have a big impact, Lucas feels, as growing up they didn't see much representation on TV. ""If I had that realisation or opportunity from a younger age, I feel like I would have been able to begin creating more. And knowledge is power. ""The only way we can normalise drag and the queer community is to talk about it and make people aware of the people we are,"" the 23-year-old from the East Midlands tells Radio 1 Newsbeat. Lucas as Ms Classpergers says ""EastEnders is a staple in British culture"" Lucas, who gets regular abuse because of a rainbow-dyed hairstyle, says people ""are so scared of difference and change"". But ""EastEnders, which is a comfort show, can affect change"", they say. Lucas is ""excited to see what conversations"" the show will create and whether ""people who don't necessarily understand the community"" will be more open afterwards. Drag queen Vinegar Strokes gave Matthew some tips to perfect his role In a video posted to the show's social media, Matthew said he'd never done drag before. Lucas's ""knee-jerk reaction"" to this was that having a character who is already a seasoned drag queen would be preferable. ""However, if a person can do it without a drag persona, I don't see anything wrong with it,"" Lucas adds. ""Drag is an expression of an inner part of ourselves that we normally don't get to show. Let's create more drag queens, and as long as they do a good job I don't see an issue with it."" The LGBT history you probably didn't learn in school Pride at 50: The revolution sparked in a basement 'Things should be safer for LGBT people in 2021' To help Matthew perfect his role, Natalie Cassidy, who plays Sonia Fowler, roped in Drag Race UK star Vinegar Strokes to help out."

"zico 2:49 Fri Jul 1 I'm sure there will soon be a Friends REBOOT where the characters are mainly derived from BAME and LGBT communities. These strong, stunning and brave protagonists who have had to battle their whole lives against marginalistation are absolutely committed to tackling the deep rooted systemic issues plaguing our society. From profound social commentaries shared over a coffee in Central Perk to the on again off again relationship between Rose (following Ross' discovery that he / she / they were trans) and Rachel. I, for one, cannot wait."

No apologies from The Fresh Prince of Bell Air, Desmonds or the one there should be an apology from The Cosby Show!! The creators of Happy Days, The Six Million Dollar Man and Charlie's Angels may have to dig into their pockets!"

Maybe they're trying to ditch the Halifax brand on account of it being too pigeon & whippet friendly?

"Pointy When you ever progress from Miserable Peasant to Normal Educated Subject, you will realise capitalism is more about successfully managing human resources and other means of production and not so much brute exploitation, profiteering and rat-race competition. But this is a silly discussion, you'll never do it - fuck off."

Humpty Polski No. I've been quite clear. all along Building societies are not capitalist institutions. You've run out of straw men and are now just making stuff up.

"Looks like you are either about to agree with me that building societies are an interesting form of capitalism or you're going to strangle yourself on your own nitwittery, Pointy."

"Who has suggested that capitalism cannot be healthy? That's another straw man. You've got a whole field of them tonight. Close to a record, I should think."

"Actually, this is no straw man. The genuine argument is that capitalism can be healthy in the social sense, does not have to be exploitative to benefit a bunch of public school tossers and building societies are just another example it is a real thing."

"LOL! Another straw man. Desperate stuff, Humpty."
