It’s unlikely to be paedophilia at McDonalds unless they are also breaking employment law! The enquiry you refer to wasn’t into the BBC itself. It was an enquiry into Savile’s activities there and why they remained undiscovered. Dame Janet Smith identified 72 victims of sexual crimes. Not 174 but still 72 too many. She was scathing about the culture that prevailed and demanded action. Which the BBC accepted and delivered. What was not alleged was that BBC as a corporation knew. The report says there is no evidence that any senior member of staff was aware of Savile’s conduct.

That people want that to mean something else doesn’t mean it does.

The McDonalds exposures are different but they are current and concerning. As I anticipated there are now hundreds more being revealed as people come forward, some of which are very serious and will take up a lot of police time.

If you don’t think record high temperatures in a variety of places isn’t newsworthy then heaven help our children’s future.

Wisbech at his finest, BBC blameless, McDonalds guilty as hell. To paraphrase Orwell, 'All organisations are equal, but some are more equal than others'.

In your deluded opinion maybe

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

easily brainwashed by propaganda then ?

Kayla did Anfield & Old Trafford

This whole discussion isn't about the BBC as a corporate entity but the fact that they represent The Establishment and so must be respected, defended and cherished. We've seen this before with the grooming gangs where the police didn't act but must've been right because they are The Police, lockdown was correct because it was recommended by Medical Experts, referendums are wrong because all decisions should be taken by The Government and so we should be duly deferential, know our place and accept their actions without question.

...and all letters of complaint should be signed "Disgusted, Tunbridge Wells"

A stairway to Heaven and a Highway to Hell give some indication of expected traffic numbers

Whilst every comedy should have Penelope Keith or Felicity Kendall - or both.
The shipping forecast remains unsullied by scandal, although they all probably knew about Saville. Dogger Bank could perhaps be considered a little salacious.

Red and Blue Army!

Heads up people, be prepared for wall to wall coverage & comments as from tomorrow because the womens world cup starts & you know the bbc will be all over this like a newsreader with photo's, or, a rash. BTW, Nicholas91, at least the 'thunbs' are back(for now)

This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise.

An excellent summary of a particular individual’s worldview, sir.
