Whack on a bit of ABBA and zip down to IKEA. It’s a top place, been plenty of times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just been on both BBC and sky and laid into them. Hugely out of context reporting, looking for a "j'accuse" angle. May well be more to come from all this.

I fucking hate Sweden, probably stems from them having the hoodoo over our national team and that big nosed fake Swedish fucker Ibrahimovic. Saying that, a lot of stuff i have is Swedish and its only just hit home, i aint ditching the Volvo or my Thule roobars and roofbox, or my frozen swedish meatballs. Fuck! I know a Swedish bolton fan ( looks like colonel) and lad loves minecraft went off IKEA when I bought a wardrobe and dowel was missing thats about it for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 I get the need for scrutiny and digging for the truth. I just don’t get that much of the media are willing to look at the right places, it’s just the same old dig at the nasty tories, moving seamlessly from Brexit to Coronavirus. We need a better media.

I also referred to his background (Aberdeen) in one. He's certainly not a happy bunny. Interestingly, Marr was complimentary about the Oxford professor who was indeed excellent, over her clear, concise and straight answers. We know where he's coming from, but it highlights the difference: her role doesn't involve a balancing act- just find the vaccine (notwithstanding the obvious difficulties), whereas the life of a politician is rarely so narrow. Two completely different tracks which conflict at the moment, and some difficult decisions to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds bad. However depends how many out of. So if he missed 5 out of 6 sounds slack 5 out of 20 less so. And when the 5 were and what he was doing instead. I keep saying that hindsight is 20/20. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is the media get slagged as being too right wing by the lefties and too left wing by the other lot. They never comment on the stuff that has gone well. The speed the nightingale hospitals were set up for instance. In the banking crash the Labour government took some steps that really minimised the impact of it that are hardly mentioned. Gordon Brown and his team did a good job of it, but that is hardly mentioned. But everyone knows the gold reserves were sold. I get journalism is about digging for a story but they should be telling the full story. The BBC has been exceptionally shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They backed Leave in the referendum and are steadfast in their support of Brexit and Boris. For all I know the article this morning might be the most inaccurate, misleading article evr written, but the idea it's just another dig at the Tories is nonsense - he's literally being criticised by his own side here.
