    30s Germany - Jews escaping Germany
    Present day UK - illegal immigrants trying to get into UK
    Obviously Lineker was talking nonsense

    Obviously! What a stunning analysis of the comments made. You should ring up the BBC and tell them you've solved it.

    If there is are you able to tell me when they appear?
    recording and watching some of MOTD is easier than hunting down 10 youtube videos each weekend

    what's it got to do with the BBC?
    Lineker was taken off MOTD because he breached their guidelines not because he was talking nonsense

    Let's be fair here, if he'd of come out and said he supported the gov on this etc then the left would have been calling for his head, just as the right are now for him coming out against it.

    Imo he's just come across like an idiotic hypocrite with an over exaggerated opinion that he posted for attention, but working for the BBC he's not allowed to do it as he well knows after being warned before.

    Absolutely! Let's be fair. If he'd done exactly that would the BBC have stood him down do you think?

    But is it garbage. Now of course there is an agenda that wants it to sound garbage and I think lineker could have been a bit more cute in his delivery. But lets break it down a bit.

    Post WW1 Germany was in the **** big time. A breading ground for extremists. Instead of addressing the real issues and facing the real causes, it's so much easier to blame it all on an easy scapegoat. Enter a centuries old foe. The Jew.

    They're responsible for all your problems. It's an international conspiracy. They're all working together for themselves at your cost. And now we've got your attention let's throw in the disabled. They're a drain in society. Then they come for the next group, then the next group.

    Fast forward to today. The government are presiding over a **** show. They don't have the answers. They need to employ deflection tactics to take people's minds of the real issues. Easy, let's appeal to people's most base emotions.

    Enter conversation, a few thousand immigrants coming across here on boats. They're a drain on society. We've got no room for them. Our services are over stretched. You can't get a house because they go to the front of the queue. It's all their fault. An easy scapegoat, appealing to people's most base emotions.

    Now of course there are issues there to be addressed but no way is it the cause of all our problems. It's an absolutely shameful tactic but I expect nothing less from that shower of ****.

    So my reading of the comments is this. You're always on shaky ground when you play the nazi Germany card. But he wasn't talking about things like the Holocaust or world wars like those with an agenda imply, to make it sound like
    a rediculous thing to say. It's the tactic of finding a group that can't defend itself and using it as the scapegoat. Feeding into those base emotions that are simmering under the surface and deflecting from the real problems.

    And here we are. Polarising society. Divide and conquer. However you want to phrase it. It's distracting us from the real issues.

    If he'd compared a Labour governments policy to Stalin's Russia then yes I think they would have stood him down.

    I very much disagree, but it's all hypothetical at this stage!
