Phil Perry Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 Some Effing Shyte ‘Presenter’ on the BBC ‘News’ Channel with a panel load of 'Efniks' calling ALL white people dumb. . . .for voting to leave the EU, and casting aspersions upon the general 'Intelligence' and pathetic 'Intelect' inherent in 'WHITE' people.. . . .YES, I know, it's just the BBCs constant propaganda, but sometimes it just gets my bloody goat. . . . Yeah, I guess we really ARE the dumb ones. . . . Renaissance, Industrial Revolution, steam power, mechanisation of factories, internal combustion engine, telephone, penicillin, DNA, television, surgical dressings, constitutional government, hygiene, antibiotics, supersonic air travel, heart and organ transplants, modern medicinal drugs ...Beethoven, Newton, DaVinci, Shakespeare, Pasteur, Mozart, Kepler, Turner, Aristotle, Pasteur, Galileo, Rembrandt, Brunel, Bach, Michelangelo, Pythagoras, Archimedes, Descartes, Fermat, Stephenson, Leibniz, Von Neumann, Pascal, Chaucer, Copernicus, Van Gogh, Ptolemy, Laplace, Chopin, Dickens, Schubert, Babbage, Vivaldi, Curie, Tesla, Faraday, Bell, Edison, Boyle, Hippocrates, Jenner, Lister, Monet.Thales,Heracleitus, Pheidas, Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Diogenes, Zeno, Thomas Acquinas, William of Ockham, Erasmus, Paracelsus, Caravaggio, Reubens, Leonardo, Homer, Hesiod, Herodotus, Aristophanes, Sophocles, Euripides, Aeschylus, Hiero of Alexandria, Anaxagoras, Polybius, Isocrates, Theucydese.Babbage, Tommy Flowers, Alan Turing, John Logie Baird, Barnes Wallis. .Rod Stiff. .Slim Dusty,. . Ian Whatsisname, (from that Aussie blog, Recreational Flying dot com ) Over to you Mr BBC "White people are dumb people" Please explain. . . . Someone once said that White people are supposed to take responsibility for what their ancestors did hundreds of years ago, while others,. . . . do not even take responsibility for what their children do today. . . .seems fair dunnit ?
Phil Perry Posted December 28, 2016 Author Posted December 28, 2016 deep breaths phil Thank you for that Phil. . . .I have just reminded Brenda ( that is our nickname for Her Maj ) in an email to Buckingham Palace,. . . that she STILL HAS THE ROYAL PREROGATIVE. And if Article 50 is as full of holes and legal obfuscations as it appears, THAT. . .She can simply overule the Parliament using this prerogative, and use the ONLY instrument which can remove us from the EU morass. . . . .Anthony Blair ( Ex-PM ) tried to have this power removed during his tenure, but it was beyind his remit. There fore, If HRH decides that we are better off OUT of the EU,. . .she can simply invoke this privilege and revoke the 1972 European Communities Act, and everything, including all and every treaty signed by UK ministers which followed this would be immediately null and void. Whether she WILL do this, is the point. The Monarch has not interfered in parliamentary Democracy for a long time, BUT, should the will of the people, in a democratic vote, be denied, . . .she really has no choice as Monarch. . . .A seriouslly heavy load for such an elderly person. . . .but seeing this pronunciation, by a lwyer working inside the Government,. . .there may be no alternative. . . . [ATTACH]48058._xfImport[/ATTACH] Article 50 means that the UK is trapped until 2022+ with all EU liabilities. Use Royal Prerogative NOW. Repeal 1972 now not later.
Yenn Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 I doubt that the Queen would interfere, she has never done so in the past. You get the government you deserve, that was part of my reasoning in becoming an ex Pom. Now there are so many poms in Australia that we are going the same way with the present government. They think they are born to rule and the voters are only there to be hoodwinked. I was brought up with the song, There will always be an England and England will always be free. What a load of rubbish that is and Aus is going the same way.

Teckair Posted December 30, 2016 Posted December 30, 2016 The ABC is the same tax payer funded leftard BS.
nomadpete Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 At you suggesting I should believe anything I see or hear from our commercial right wing monopolised media?
dutchroll Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 The ABC is the same tax payer funded leftard BS. So on the ABC today we have: Rage (music videos) Miss Fisher's Murder Mysteries Vera (British crime show) David Attenborough's Great Barrier Reef Australia's Remote Islands Chateau Downunder - A Wine Revolution (documentary of the Australian wine industry) Outback Choir (documentary following a regional country children's choir) When the Beatles Drove Us Wild (documentary) ABC News (ya know - it just reports the news - you don't have to like the news if you don't want to) New Years Eve telecast So.....which of these shows are taxpayer funded leftard BS? I suspect you mean "A teeny tiny proportion of ABC shows are opinion/political shows and I don't like what they say, therefore my immaculate logical reasoning is that everything the ABC has ever done is taxpayer funded leftard BS".
old man emu Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 How many of those A B C shows are repeats? It's the Christmas/New Year holiday season. Every program transmitted is a repeat, except the news and sport. OME
Marty_d Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Hey Phil... just a suggestion mate... if you don't like the BBC, why don't you just... not watch it? Same goes for you with the ABC Teckair. These things are not compulsory viewing.
dutchroll Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Hey Phil... just a suggestion mate... if you don't like the BBC, why don't you just... not watch it? Same goes for you with the ABC Teckair. These things are not compulsory viewing. Well there you go again Marty. Using logic where none exists. I think a smattering of shows on Fox, namely Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, and a couple of other opinion shows are absolute garbage. However Fox as a TV channel itself actually has many really interesting shows which I quite enjoy. So I don't say "Fox TV is extreme right-wing conservative nutjob sky-fairy tosh which should be wiped off the face of the Earth", which would be a fair comment if Hannity was the only thing I ever watched on it. I specify the shows I don't like, I don't watch them, but I watch the others I enjoy without judging the entire channel. But this is using common sense.
octave Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 it Hey Phil... just a suggestion mate... if you don't like the BBC, why don't you just... not watch it? Same goes for you with the ABC Teckair. These things are not compulsory viewing. It is intriguing to me when people say the ABC or BBC is rubbish,if you think it is BS then why do you watch it, if you don't watch it then how do you know it is rubbish (other than Andrew Bolt told you).. Since the age of watching what we say and pc is over I feel that I can now say exactly what I think (yes it cuts both ways) So I am assuming that those who think the BBC is rubbish have watched the docos about quantum physics or perhaps the history of chemistry or the solar system and have either analysed them and found them to be inaccurate or they don't understand them or they think that knowledge is some kind of left wing plot. I can understand that they don't like BBC news because it perhaps does not support their gut feeling about things but if you feel that BBC science and history docos are rubbish PLEASE provide examples. To help you out here is a list of BBC docos but OF COURSE no one will seriously give me any supporting evidence that the BBC is full of rubbish, instead they will probably call me a "libtard" that oh so witty word that always reminds me of an inadequate teenage boy who is raging at the world because they are having trouble coping with it. links available here - http://thetvdb.com/?tab=season&seriesid=79660&seasonid=650366 1 The Joy of Rachmaninoff 2016-01-01 2 Leningrad and the Orchestra That Defied Hitler 2016-01-02 3 Britain's Muslim Soldiers 2016-01-03 4 The Age of Loneliness 2016-01-07 5 The Story Of The Day The Clown Cried 2016-01-03 6 Big Hits: TOTP 1964 to 1975 2016-01-04 7 The Millionaire's Gift Guide 2016-01-03 8 Royal Wives at War 2016-01-08 9 The Town That Took On The Taxman 2016-01-20 10 David Bowie: Sound and Vision 2016-01-11 11 Bad Dads' Army: The Hatton Garden Heist 2016-01-14 12 Attenborough And The Giant Dinosaur 2016-01-24 13 Murder Games: The Life and Death of Breck Bednar 2016-01-26 14 Children Saved From The Nazis: The Story Of Sir Nicholas Winton 2016-01-27 15 Barely Legal Grafters 2016-01-19 16 Adam Pearson: Freak Show 2016-01-19 17 Ryan Farquhar: Back On The Road 2016-01-19 18 Britain's Trillion Pound Island: Inside Cayman 2016-01-22 19 Lemmy: In His Own Words 2016-01-22 20 Burns, My Dad and Me 2016-01-25 21 Goya Exposed with Jake Chapman 2016-01-20 22 Patrick Kielty's Mulholland Drive 2016-01-26 23 Troll Hunters 2016-01-27 24 Pierre Boulez at the BBC: Master and Maverick 2016-01-29 25 Rise of the Superstar Vloggers 2016-02-01 26 Bloody Queens: Elizabeth and Mary 2016-02-01 27 The Supergamers 2016-02-02 28 The Virtual Reality Virgin 2016-02-02 29 Webcam Boys 2016-02-03 30 Camila's Kids Company - The Inside Story 2016-02-03 31 Professor Green: Hidden And Homeless 2016-02-09 32 How To Die: Simon's Choice 2016-02-10 33 Britains Brainiest School 2016-02-03 34 School's Not for Me 2016-02-01 35 The Most Dangerous Band in the World: The Story of Guns N' Roses 2016-02-05 36 The Not So Secret Life of the Manic Depressive: 10 Years On 2016-02-15 38 My Baby, Psychosis And Me 2016-02-16 39 In Private View: Neelam Gill On Vogue 2016-02-17 40 Annabel's Nightclub: A String of Naked Lightbulbs 2016-02-06 41 Montalbano and Me: Andrea Camilleri 2016-02-07 42 Rick Stein's Taste of Shanghai 2016-02-08 43 Addicted to Sheep 2016-02-08 44 The Docklands Bomb: Executing Peace 2016-02-09 45 Grime Scene Queens 2016-02-10 46 Stacey Dooley in Cologne: The Blame Game 2016-01-28 47 The Easybeats to AC/DC: The Story of Aussie Rock 2016-02-12 48 Botticelli's Venus: The Making Of An Icon 2016-02-15 49 Ireland's Treasures Uncovered 2016-02-15 50 Before I Kick the Bucket: The Whole Story 2016-02-15 51 Facelifts and Fillers 2016-02-17 51 Botticelli's Venus: The Making of an Icon 2016-02-15 52 Daft Punk Unchained 2016-02-19 53 Kipling's Indian Adventure 2016-02-16 54 The Man Who Witnessed 219 Executions 2016-02-19 55 Pompeii: New Secrets Revealed with Mary Beard 2016-03-03 56 Perfect Pianists at the BBC 2016-03-04 57 Britain's Secret Slavery Business 2016-03-11 58 The Return of Flying Scotsman 2016-03-06 59 Frontline Doctors: Winter Migrant Crisis 2016-03-07 60 Dunblane: Our Story 2016-03-09 61 Meet The Devotees 2016-03-09 62 Virtuoso Violinists at the BBC 2016-03-11 63 Behind Closed Doors 2016-03-14 64 Boris: The London Years 2016-03-14 65 The Queen's 90th Birthday: A Service of Celebration for Commonwealth Day 2016-03-14 66 Wales's Most Deprived Estate: The Fight Back 2016-03-14 67 The Estate We're In 2016-03-15 68 Trapped in Syria: My Mum's Story 2016-03-15 69 Brendan O'Carroll: My Family at War 2016-03-16 70 Jo Brand's Hell of a Walk for Sport Relief 2016-03-17 71 Miss Transgender: Britain's New Beauty Queens 2016-03-15 72 John Williams at the BBC 2016-03-18 73 The Savage World of Social Media 2016-03-21 74 The Battle for Christianity 2016-03-22 75 Swansea Sparkle: A Transgender Story 2016-03-22 76 Chef Vs Science: The Ultimate Kitchen Challenge 2016-03-23 77 Hayley: Call Centre's Tanning Addict 2016-03-24 78 In The Footsteps of Judas 2016-03-25 79 Murdered by My Father 2016-03-29 80 Scruffts: Britain's Favourite Dog 2016-03-16 81 The Boy with No Hands 2016-03-12 82 The Last Days of Legal Highs 2016-04-05 83 Can Seb Coe Save Athletics?

Marty_d Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 ... 43 Addicted to Sheep 2016-02-08... Oh look! They've even got doco's for our friends across the Tasman!
Bikky Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 "don't it always seem to go, that you don't know what you've got til it's gone ..." I miss the ABC. Some may say it's biased but I never watched those parts.
dutchroll Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 I like it when people bitterly complain of ABC bias then cite Fox News or an Andrew Bolt column. "We should NOT tolerate bias in the media..........unless it's bias I agree with!"
nomadpete Posted December 31, 2016 Posted December 31, 2016 Y'know, Octave got me thinking about why I prefer ABC and SBS. In my past I worked in a media hub where news feeds passed through, on their way to the TV stations. We got to see the whole of each "news" item before the stations "edited" it down to fit their time slot and (sadly) their bias. Apart from news getting delayed by sometimes days, I was constantly amazed to see the final news items when finally aired. Apart from critical information getting lost, often the loss of context created a whole new meaning to the news item. And this was achieved without anybody actually telling any lies. Most of our commercial news is purchased from U.S. Media. It has already been edited to match its US audience before arriving here. Sometimes An Aussie does a voiceover to give the impression that the news Was gathered by a Aussie. At least ABC Aust and SBS have more overseas reporters and journos, so their news is less filtered before being fed to us. And there is a reason for them to have a very good worldwide reputation, in our biased and imperfect world.
Teckair Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 "We should NOT tolerate bias in the media..........unless it's bias I agree with!" Exactly! have you noticed left of centre people love the ABC?
octave Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Exactly! have you noticed left of centre people love the ABC? Except have you noticed right of centre people love Breitbart, Fox news or Andrew Bolt. So what is your point?
dutchroll Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 Exactly! have you noticed left of centre people love the ABC? - I probably know half a dozen "left of centre" people who love the ABC - I know some conservative people who also love the ABC but don't watch its current affairs shows. - I know one extremely right wing person who gets all their news from Breitbart and thinks almost everything is a left wing conspiracy. - I know some left of centre people who don't watch the ABC much at all. - the population of Australia is about 24 million. What can I confidently conclude about the ABC from all these facts? That some people watch it and some people don't.
Yenn Posted January 1, 2017 Posted January 1, 2017 The ABC has a lot of rubbish and a lot of repeats, but it is far better than commercial radio or TV.
