    You usually are more than happy give an opinion . However for some reason you seem reluctant to answer the question directly. Forget what I think, (if you answer the question directly I in turn will do the same re Greg Dyke etc) . so … do you think it’s ok for the senior management of the BBC to be;

    As are you repeating stuff. I’m trying to be patient, instead of being defensive for once listen to a suggestion! …Have you watched Laura Kunesburg from this morning as I suggested?

    That answer is a deflection tactic.

    Your friend is reluctant, or unable, so maybe you can answer the q I posed to him about the governance of the BBC ?, or are you equally reluctant to answer a straight q?

    Edit
    Although you do have previous, you’ve yet to answer the q’s I posed to you about the issues raised in PMQ’s, which are also about the most recent attempt of a Tory immigration bill . (Despite the fact you were critical raising the issue in the first place)

    Don’t be obtuse, you know exactly what I’m saying.

    Would you be as relaxed about it if they were all Labour leaning ?

    OF COURSE you can offer up certain people in certain jobs who have the same "gender" of affiliations. TO BE FAIR AND HONEST you need to put up the whole board!

    I’m not happy with so much of one side if I’m honest, and yes I would be equally unhappy if they were all Labour leaning. It doesn’t help the recent lineker issue either. I’m sure they’re all honourable people, but it’s about perception as well , I’d prefer them to br either not affiliated, or at least have no history of backing one side or the other, or if that’s not possible then there should at least be a balance.

    I clearly provided an opinion. Here it is again. As somebody who is left wing, I had no qualms about individuals overtly associated with Labour being in senior management roles at the BBC. What is important is meritocracy, that ability to do the job.

    You as a standard have swerved answering points and questions. Here are few where you did not offer an opinion.

    Greg Dyke. Gavyn Davies. Would we find fair minded concern regarding these political appointments in your post history?

    You ignored the deep offense caused to people by Gary Lineker.

    The Nazis controlled 1930's Germany. Comparing anything to 1930's Germany evokes what?

    Comparing language. Where is the equivalent? The Nazis were calling Jews ‘parasites’, ‘vermin’, ‘scum’, ‘disease’. They said they needed to be ‘cleansed’, expunged’, ‘liquidated’. Please point me towards equivalent language used by the Tories. The Nazis followed their words with genocide. 1930's Germany became a hell on earth.

    Gary Lineker worked for a Qatari state owned TV company before the World Cup for several years.

    If you read my post directly above this one you will see I gave my opinion re political appointees, hardly avoiding the question, maybe you should read my posts before criticising.
    I again didn’t ignore the offence caused either, I made the point that the ability to talk about these awful issues is what prevents them happening again, it’s painful at times, but far better we don’t forget them. I also pointed out Lineker has said he will be a voice for unfortunate souls who don’t have a voice themselves. (Paraphrasing him).
    The language being used is that the Tory’s/Tory press are demonising migrants, suggesting there are millions of them all looking to come here and suggesting they are all terrorists, rapists and criminals

    Nothing wrong with earning lots of money, but remembering your roots, socialists are perfectly happy with doing well for yourself, the worst type are when they’ve bettered themselves becoming Tory capitalist pigs

    might want to read the post again you swerved the posters question about your post history = you didnt answer it. So linekers alright coating of an Asian women with a Jewish husband with something about 1930's Germany?
    Braverman and her hubby would have been called biologically inferior in Germany and National Socialists had laws to stop biologically inferior breeding!! Who was trying to migrate into that ****ing hell hole???

    The language being used is that the Tory’s/Tory press are demonising migrants, suggesting there are millions of them all looking to come here and suggesting they are all terrorists, rapists and criminals? what a load!! the Tories have record levels of migration. They have not said all migrants are terrorists, rapists and criminals. Look at that cabinet that sons and daughters of migrants represented there right to the top.

    When the influential left thinkers in senior positions in this country are influencing the likes of Education, Policing, the NHS, the Home Office and more and praising open borders I have a MASSIVE problem !
    Kids of 7 and up being taught by drag queens that there are at least 73 genders, kids of that tender age being taught about rough sex and choking, and when the police investigate tweets but won’t turn up if your car is broken into or your house robbed then yes, it’s a problem that will bite innocent people for years to come unless someone with some sense has some courage to stand up and open peoples eyes to why this country is so broken

    You did not answer the posed question.

    So offence has been caused, and that is just?

    What awful issues?

    Are you comparing the Nazis history of being genocidal totalitarian ethno nationalists to the 2023 Government of the UK?

    The man who profited from the Qatari state.

    The Nazis were calling Jews ‘parasites’, ‘vermin’, ‘scum’, ‘disease’. They said they needed to be ‘cleansed’, expunged’, ‘liquidated. So, you can't find any language used by the Tories that is equivalent to 1930's Germany. Could you find language in law created by the Tories like the Nazis race laws?

    You again avoid points, and fail to answer questions.

    1930's Germany is not a parable to the UK in 2023. Comparing anything to 1930's Germany evokes what? The Nationals Socialists. Nazis. Mr Linkers is therefore comparing the Tories (multi racial) to? Racist evil.

    Mr Lineker is a bell end who profits from human rights abusers.

    <doh>Pot, kettle, black <laugh><laugh><laugh>

    I answered the q’s one by one, I’m not doing it again , the only point I didn’t answer was the Qatari one, I kinda agree with you on that, but it doesn’t stop him from making other valid points on other issues. It doesn’t make him a hypocrite imo
