So the Tory Party wants a leading broadcaster to censure a high profile individual for criticising an ethically dubious and possibly illegal government policy? Nothing in the slightest totalitarian there then...
...and after all the Prime Minister has already declared that their policy is the priority of the British people so how dare he say something that every right thinking (TM) member of the public is fully behind...
...lefty liberal elite...lock them all up and leave it those of us who know what people want to tell them what they want and stop anyone who doesn't want it from having a platform to point out they don't want it because it might encourage others to stand up and say they don't want it either..and what would that lead to? Free speech? Dissent? People questioning the Prime Minister's right to tell them what their priorities are? All the horrors of a liberal society.
Stop these lefty snowflakes now before it's too late.

Does cancel culture go both ways? Does freedom of speech go both ways? It's hilarious to see the meltdown from blokes who've been whingeing like fuck about it. Pot, kettle, black

Who have I said should be cancelled exactly?.. Likewise, in the first page, who was calling for lineker’s cancellation/silencing? It was a few people calling him a bellend and a few people agreeing with him. Then the second page turned into a massive circle jerk of people creating a narrative of “the irony of the free speech brigade” and whatnot. Werrington at least explicitly said his post wasn’t relating to this thread specifically. I’m not sure many of those liking it noticed that detail though.

It was about Trump supporters and their views on cancel culture and free speech. I completely agree with the hypocrisy.

Sugar who is a Jew, and the Labour party was going through anti semetism issues at the time, Lineker is paid from the BBC's public purse, such a difference in levels between the two.

Is Alan Sugar not paid from the bbcs public purse? Is introducing an asylum rule that meant if the holocaust happened today that there'd be no safe routes for Jewish people to claim asylum not antisemitic?

Progress!

Not sure what the innit bruv is meant to imply myself either. Most of the people who use such language tend to be into "grime" and such. Followers of that brand of music tend to be overwhelmingly left wing. Here's a great Glastonbury performance.

All this episode goes to show (once again) is how people on both ends of the political spectrum have completely lost the ability to deal with views which differ from their own.

Gary Linekers BBC brainwashing of millions of people has a lot more in common with Nazi propaganda tactics in my opinion.
Whilst I respect Linekers rights to compare the speech to Nazi Germany - I don't recall ever seeing any non-white people delivering any speeches or making any decisions during the time Nazi Germany existed. So to suggest it is even in the same ball park doesn't make sense to me. Each to their own.

So what you're saying is that if it effects you personally then you can speak up all you want and call people Nazis but otherwise you have to just shut up and stay quiet? Is that the official BBC line? I think not. Are you also saying that Sugar hosts one of the highest rated shows on the BBC for free? Fair play to you for the unbelievably weak (and inaccurate) attempt at a defence of the hypocrisy shown by the BBC here. Unfortunately though, all it shows is your naivety in thinking that Sugar is for some reason doing pro bono work for the Beeb or that you believe "Some animals are more equal than others" when it comes to being allowed an opinion, as it were. Whether you agree with what Lineker said or not, to try to deny the hypocrisy from the BBC is laughable.

You seriously think millions of people around the country are taking their political opinions from a host of a sports show??? That's genuinely hilarious What's even more bizarre (and hilarious) than that idea, is the idea that you're worried about the BBC brainwashing people because of Gary Lineker. Have you watched the BBC news over the last few years?? The news that completely ignores and fails to even cover news stories as and when it suits, the channel that themselves have misquoted what Lineker even said in the first place to make it more of a story, the news of a corporation that is run by a personal friend and financial helper of a former Tory PM...but yeah, brainwashing and propaganda at the BEEB is all Lineker's fault You melt
