Have you never noticed that when the BBC interview the man (or woman) in the street they always seem to aim for the most stupid looking ones

I've noticed this as well but by pollsters. Amnesty international, Planned Parenthood Etc always seem to target youngsters nearly always sporting piercings & multiple hair colouring

Pro USA & Israel

Yes, and they never challenge any of their comments. Yesterday, for example, a whole string of people in some high street in England all saying that nurses should be paid a lot more. Not one challenge such as "how much should they be paid?" or "how would that be funded?" or "would you be happy to pay a couple of hundred more in tax a month to make it happen, then a couple of hundred more for the train drivers, teachers etc etc?"

Or they could ask if people want their kids taught by monkeys or by professionals? Or if the train companies could have used profits to pay workers, instead of paying dividends? Or if they could sack a whole layer of management in the NHS and no one would notice? It goes both ways - they're not quite on the side you may think. They still need the licence fee.

Red and Blue Army!

the Serbia team are mostly straight white men. That's like Kryptonite to the BBC. Probably something similar with Canada and so Vincent Kompany was more acceptable.

And if the Poland team starts winning all their games ? just watch the BBC clambering around to find a female LGBT pundit from Krakow.

its amazing how our license fee is paying for an overtly racist/misanthropist organisation.

Apparently BBC staff are demanding an inquiry into racism at the corporation.

Odd that such a left wing organisation is beset with discrimination claims on such a regular basis.

I do not believe the BBC is anything like what these complainers say it is. However it is an open door with deep pockets so these people smell money / jobs and promotion.

There was a TV presenter who complained about pay discrimination and got a huge pay out. It went something like this:

Presenter I have never heard of who hosted a show I never heard of in the early mornings (circa 6am) when nobody is watching wins claims against BBC because another presenter I have never heard of who also presented a show I had never heard of which nobody watches was paid more than her.

Where the BBC is at fault is that he has allowed too many staff to claim that they are exceptional and so should be paid outside of the pay structure. This has then lead to a free for all where people are paid based on how good their agent is.

In the example above what the BBC should have done is told these people that they are not stars and plenty of people can do their job so they will be paid within the salary structure.

There are probably only a handful of people that actually are big enough to circumvent the pay structure.

Not suggesting a bromance here but I agree this post entirely.
