And the made up accents. Heard a few teenagers near the Leicester explosion sounding similar to lots of the street bellends down here. What the actual fvck? You won't find many going very far sounding like this. Immigrants with brown or black skin who've prospered in professional work definitely don't, even if it's a regional accent that may or may not have been toned down a bit to boost their prospects.

Sure immigrants bring lots of positives, but that list? Really? One of the most damaging negatives is making either low paid employment work or causing liveable wages to drop because immigrants come and live with 2-4 or 5 adults per room, and politicians have the nerve to say this isn't the case because of a massaged statistic.

I don't know about American newspapers that much.....though I know the Washington Post and New York Times are left wing....well in American terms. I can only refer to what I know and what I know is about the televisual media. Fox is the only main republican channel in the States. It is heavily outnumbered.....CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS.....All left wing, all anti Trump. That's just a fact. In the UK.....there are zero right wing TV networks. BBC, ITV C4, Sky News......all left wing. Sky News recently did a soft focus news piece on antifa.....I kid you not.....you should go on Youtube and watch it. It would have warmed Nick's heart. Edited by Stirlingsays (08 Mar 2018 5.47pm)

If so I understand that is against the rules of this forum and I will thank you to avoid personal and unpleasant attacks. That may have been acceptable when you were the Judge but I don't view it as appropriate on this site. In response to your points about social change, as I have said before that will come no matter what. Anyone that can't adapt will quickly become out of step with coming generations. Very soon it is those people that become the 'other' whilst the new society becomes mainstream.

I actually agree with you that this country will turn to s***, or experience social change as you called it, despite objections. It is inevitable that human stupidity will prevail over sense as it usually does.

The proof is the output on a daily basis. I would say it's more liberal-left, than out-and-out Marxist and you can see it in the coverage of Brexit and the anti-Republican stances. Lots of studies have shown this. Sky News is hardly right wing. Its stories are identical to BBC News, while Channel 4 News is unashamedly left. Editors and reporters tend to be left leaning. The TV media barons owners only care about the profit, understandably. Edited by Penge Eagle (08 Mar 2018 9.36pm)

It is inevitable that human stupidity will prevail over sense as it usually does. Indeed, why did you accuse me of that? I really don't know, I can only assume something I have done has got under your skin. As far as I know, I am welcome to post both here and on the BBS. I cannot imagine it is in the interests of the HOL to have you drive away its regular posters as you are trying to do. I am far from a victim and I won't buckle to bullies.

Edited by Penge Eagle (08 Mar 2018 9.36pm) To a certain extent BBC now follows SKY as it is based outside the capital; what an idiot decision for a 24 news broadcaster. C4, I think sets itself up to be a foil to the written press, sometimes it tries too hard, and crap car crash coverage looks worse on TV than print. One thing it does that neither SKY or BBC do is seem to have foreign correspondence outside the US or Brussels.

A certain Mod said that using the Judge or Maz was a yellow card but it seems to be only me as "I am walking a tightrope" (for being perceived as a (rare as rocking horse sh;t) left wing poster i assume). However, as you continually getaway with it I'll ignore that particular missive from now on.

Unfortunately for you, the mods on here aren't as dumb and terminally left wing as the BBS chaps. Run along Mazicles. Im sure Biggin' or somebody is waiting to do battle.

My mission in life is to try to improve the lives of others. Frankly if you feature at all it’s on the basis that you appear to have the opposite mission. Sadly for you. But not really my problem.

One thing it does that neither SKY or BBC do is seem to have foreign correspondence outside the US or Brussels. 'Foreign correspondence' once something to be proud of, has seemingly vanished. The only place I can find coverage of world events actually from the countries themselves, is RT from its beleaguered Trump-hit studios. And far from Russia bias, the presenters are mainly American.

There is a very short distance between being obsessively self righteous and bonkers. I appreciate people who help others, particularly when they do it quietly and without the need to tell us all how virtuous they are. You are obviously not in that catagory.
