    It is the folly of too many, to mistake the echo of a London coffee-house for the voice of the kingdom.

    The BBC were blatantly going to try and "wind up the Gammons " because there are no tickets being sold and they know full well that people wouldn't turn up if they refused to play the patriotic songs or walk out if they unfurl a huge EUROPEAN UNION or **** flag again .
    It's the one event where people celebrate British contributions to music and culture.

    Much like the Premier league pushing this BLM Marxist nonsense, most fans would boo and jeer taking a knee before every game.

    The BBC is run by *****philes and Communists openly discriminate against the British people , still butt hurt over Brexit and treat their "customers " with utter contempt.

    Millions of us stopped watching years ago and more and more people are cancelling their TV licences.

    They need to be defunded and compete with all the other broadcasters.

    It's mainly just repeats anyway .

    The only decent thing on is Miranda, and I have them all on box sets anyway.

    Then we'd have missed out on all the fun of Brexit.

    All the funny sounding names in the lake district are a consequence of the Welsh tribe of Straths, roaming north, to eventually colonise the area around the Clyde. hence Strathclyde. They're basically Welsh with a bit of Cumbrian kicked in. They possibly would have got further, but the Northumbrian Brits had colonised it before them. At that time, the Jocks were limited to being a few Danes in the Mountains, until the Irish Scotia arrived.

    Do you write jokes for the not at all token appointment and genuinely quite funny comedian Nish Kumar ?

    He's in the same mould as Bill Hicks and George Carlin.

    No, since Ken Dodd died, I don’t write material for anyone else.

    Surely City's a just nations in microcosm, and their borders are simply force fed dogma? :bandit:

    I hated that ****ing tax dodging **** Dodd.

    He only got away with it because the trial was held in Liverpool.

    The rest of us have to pay our tax like decent citizens, when you get ****s like Dodd not doing so, footing the shortfall falls upon the rest of us law abiding citizens. As usual one rule for the well off and one for us ordinary folk.
