I agree that certain voices have to be 'reigned in' or monitored, however, this particular incident (which was listened to by a limited audience!) is just too far in this nanny state. Sent from my SM-A600FN using Tapatalk

Would it cut down the number of M.P.s in Parliament if there was a box "none of the above"

Why have there not been howls of protest of misogyny from the wokers about V. Derbyshire. If anything in the world is sexist that must be. Are we sure it wasn't an (in)voluntary Asperger lapse. I saw her interview with Andrea Leadsom recently and Derbyshire was mocking and insolent in the extreme. She failed on that occasion and AL retained her polite courtesy and calm composure faultlessly throughout, even smiling.

Turns out Trump has a history against Comcast, therefore the Sky news will be skewed against Trump. This will explain the excessive(?) coverage of the protesters.
Fox news used to be a very Republican leaning news program (back when I was there at least when GDubya was president) , and I would imagine he and Murdoch would be great friends, so likely to be more positive to Trump.

I think Comcast own it now, after Murdoch lost out buying it back, after which he went to Fox. I think this was last year or year before. Comcast are definitely not friends of Trump. (I always thought it was just CNN lol)
(just scanning through the history of it, it is quite a bit more complicated than above, but Comcast are the sole owners, which goes a long way to explain why you have seen so much anti Trump sentiment on it - if you think the BBC are biased, you should try flicking between Fox News and Sky news lol)

Melania seems extremely subdued and forgiving whilst maintaining decorum. Indeed, almost saintly. Obviously somewhat more than a trophy.

Fox News = Murdoch = Trump's ally
Sky News = Comcast = Trump's enemy I came across an article recently of Trump calling out Comcast as a fake news outlet, hence why I mentioned it. I recall a post you made somewhere complaining about all the protester coverage against Trump.

So it's the least worst of a bad lot. Some choice. Unfortunately the current choices neither inspire nor encourage.
Was watching a channel today 'Keep it Country' (FV 87) recommended to me by my daughter's Irish husband. In spite of its title it's mainly Irish Folk (think Dubliners or Fureys) and partly C/W and sometimes has slots about history. Today it was about USA observations of UK history of 20th century government. Very surprisingly they were full of compliments and admiration about our way of doing things. It's nothing but embarrassing now. We are a laughing stock because of the useless idiots looking after their own futures.
