I find it interesting that the latest three scandals to break at the BBC; 1) The Gaza programme narrated by the son of a Hamas member 2) The incitement to violence of Glasto morons available on iPlayer for 5 hours 3) The misconduct to two Masterchef presenters has produced two sackings: Both of the Masterchef presenters. No members of the BBC staff responsible for scandals 1 or 2 have lost their jobs. It seems their back room roles out of the limelight protects them from the consequences of their actions. And their high profile superiors - the Director General and the Chairman of the BBC - are apparently above reproach, or accountability. Hardly fair or transparent.
Remarkable. A Labour Chancellor calling upon British workers to move their savings from safe ISA's to inherently risky stocks & shares. Extraordinary in these uncertain times. A pretty transparent and desperate ruse to try and kick-start our failing Economy. Along with other measures in the pipeline, such as a return to riskier mortgages, with people soon able to borrow God knows how many times their annual salaries - salaries earned from jobs that are generally far less secure than they used to be. And 'massive' cuts to "red tape" in the City. Red tape designed to prevent the Credit Crunch of 2008 ever happening again. So conditions are being created that will allow a 2008 style financial collapse to happen again. And when it does, guess who will have to bail out all the Banks again? Yep. You and me. Tax-payers. And don't imagine a Reform UK Government will prevent this. Reform will strip away even more regulation, allowing the reckless speculators and City fat cats to run wild.
We should do what the Yanks are doing: gather up foreign criminals and dump them in Eswatini. Genius.
I agree the worst of our criminals should be removed from the UK. The Southport murderer. The murderer of Sarah Everard. The murderer of MP Jo Cox. The murderer of MP Sir David Amess. The murderer of PC Keith Palmer. The murderers of Fusilier Lee Rigby. All of these currently living in relative luxury at the expense of tax-payers, while taking every opportunity to maim prison staff. Such scum should be flown to South Georgia, where they can hunt penguins for food and hopefully freeze to death. SG is a British territory, so it would not technically be a deportation. No complications around revoking UK citizenship to tie up the Courts or waste more money. UK citizenship won't keep such pond-life warm in the Antarctic Winter. This one's a freebie Nigel. Stick it in your 2029 manifesto and it will help you into No. 10 with a landslide majority.
You are too kind. A bullet's too good for them. Granted it'll cost a few quid to fly them down there in a military transport plane. I had another thought though; Perhaps as an aid to conservation of the species, we could transport a couple of dozen hungry Polar Bears to South Georgia as well. They might thrive on the isolated island, especially with the occasional murderer to snack on, as well as seals & the odd penguin.
The odd penguin??? I say old chap they've got a hard enough time as it is without polar bears to deal with.
I have great respect for Penguins. The conditions they have to survive all year round, they really live on the edge. Even the little ones are harder than any Millwall fan. A few Polar bears lolloping around won't trouble them much. And I have heard that Polar bears don't eat penguins, as they can't get the wrappers off. But I'll admit putting the bears in a position to munch on murdering scumbags is an offence to the Polar bears' dignity.
