Can I call a Blackbird a Blackbird?

Black-list is fine. White-wash oth has been added to the blacklist.

A bird of colour perhaps. Now there's a thought.

Black-list is fine. White-wash oth has been added to the blacklist.

It’s all very uncomplicated...

• the terms 'white list', 'white lists' and 'white listed' have been blacklisted and are not to be used under any circumstances
• the terms 'black list', 'black lists' and 'black listed' have been whitelisted and thus, may be freely used.

Thank you.
I have chalked this all up.

According to the BBC there is now a news blackout on discussing the blacklist.
A member of the BBC when questioned about this fake news said "well it's just a little white lie".

Has this info been greenlit for publication?

white people?

So, they were doing blackface.

All that soot.




^And here is a point. I'm sitting here thinking 'Dare I post this?', 'Will I get ROPs?', 'Will it offend?'

I am not trying to stereotype BAME individuals as criminals. I am in fact lampooning the continual faux outrage relating to issues of colour.

The sad thing is that any level of proportionality or perspective has long since gone out of the window.

They ‘won’ years ago imho. I lost count of the number of times I had to hover over the send button before firing off an email in Army HQ!
Thank the Lord I am no longer constrained by Political Correctness or Unconscious Bias in the work place.
As for mixing with the great British public and dropping a bollock whilst out and about? Meh! Social Distancing is the way ahead for me!

Window? You bigot! You need to be censured and cancelled for promoting the supremacy of euro-centric architectural norms, which alienate those of other constructional heritage.

I know this thread is about Al Beeb, but this shows yet another Force, sorry Service, that seems f**cked beyond redemption!
I think this shows just how ludicrous our Police have become



Seemingly there are no problems with gun or knife crime in Merseyside then?

 

[Cold_Collation]

Well, quite. Let's target ideological 'crime' over the real stuff.

I see that they're wearing masks because they're so embarrassed. So they should be.

Well, given that we've got a cancer-faking buffoon on this site who seems to brand any form of discussion or challenge to current orthodoxies over what constitutes racism as racism, rather than what really is racism, hesitancy is understandable.

Interestingly you can't commit a hate crime based on a person's immutable characteristic of age, but you can commit one against someone pretending they don't have a penis.

Beeb seems to think our vaccine programme is good, careful not to say that Boris's team has got it more right than virtually any other country esp. the EU.

Covid vaccines - 'spectacular' impact on serious illness

First evidence from the UK's vaccine programme shows a reduction in hospital admissions in Scotland.

Come on, get with the agenda! Boris is there for the BBC to lay all blame, and credit has nothing whatsoever to do with PMBJ or his team.
