    Jesus F.ucking H Christ will you look at this shower of sh.it. If you thought the Oscars was the peak of Wokedom have a gander at the c.unts getting gongs here;

    • Leading actress: Michaela Coel, I May Destroy You
    • Leading actor: Paul Mescal, Normal People
    • Comedy entertainment programme: The Big Narstie Show
    • Current affairs: America’s War On Abortion
    • Daytime: The Great House Giveaway
    • Drama Series: Save Me Too
    • Entertainment performance: Romesh Ranganathan, The Ranganation
    • Entertainment programme: Life & Rhymes
    • Factual series: Once Upon A Time in Iraq
    • Features: Long Lost Family: Born Without Trace
    • Female performance in a comedy programme: Aimee Lou Wood, Sex Education
    • International: Welcome To Chechnya: The Gay Purge
    • Live event: Springwatch 2020

    • News coverage: Sky News Inside Idlib
    • Reality and constructed factual: The School That Tried To End Racism
    • Scripted comedy: Inside No. 9
    • Short form programme: They Saw The Sun First
    • Single documentary: Locked In: Breaking The Silence
    • Single drama: Sitting In Limbo
    • Soap and continuing drama: Casualty
    • Specialist factual: The Surgeon’s Cut
    • Sport: England v West Indies Test Cricket
    • Supporting actor: Malachi Kirby, Small Axe
    • Supporting actress: Rakie Ayola, Anthony
    • Virgin Media’s must-see moment: Britain’s Got Talent – Diversity perform a routine inspired by the events of 2020
    I'm sorry but any award ceremony that thinks Big Narstie deserves an accolade other than "most untalented mong" is seriously flawed. Diversity taking the knee got a special award, even the sport is Woke and features the West Indies. The rest is made up of pooves, negroes and other misfits.

    I only watch football and Minder on the tellybox. Video cassettes are the way forward. My favourite is The Snowman, which has the animated version of The Happy Prince as a bonus feature.

    Never watch any of these snorefests with the luvvies slapping themselves on the back. Have to say I have nothing against Romesh Ranganathan, I like the stuff he does, and Springwatch 2020 is harmless enough wildlife programming although Packham has become an annoying tree-hugger. I have never heard of most of the rest of them but what happened to the Overpaid Undertalented Cheeky Chappies from Tyneside Award? Were they too white to win it this year?

    No surprise that everything is going to the Woke. They have got a century of white privilege to cancel out.

    Hopefully the England fans keep booing the brain dead morons taking a knee. It was a thing that started in America and it is political. The tw*t from the FA saying that they are not doing it for political reasons clearly does not have a clue and we know that the players are witless as even ex-player Gary Lineker criticised the booing.

    Why not become a film director and then you can jolly well tell everyone what to do and make better TV shows yourself?

    There is that too.

    Before 12 Years A Slave how many of these chumps would have won anything? I'd guess none.

    The Oscars have explicitly decreed that no film will get a look in unless it is able to demonstrate diversity throughout its production from actors, directors, producers, all the way down to the person identifying as the tea boy. Looks like the BAFTAs have gone down the same road.

    The big film conglomerates are kacking their pants at some woke twat calling them racist, homophobic, transphobic etc. The result is watered down pish on TV, radio and at the cinema.

    Welcome to the new utopia where if you don't like history you can re-write it to suit yourself.

    Take the knee, kiss the boot.

    Well it might help if the history taught gave a true reflection ie Cromwell in English history or Cromwell in Irish history, just saying.

    History used to be written by the winners, now it is written by the losers and whingers who don't like where they fit in the grand scheme of things.

    Cromwell was a Parliamentarian hero, warts and all. Of course the Mick don't like him as he kicked your arse in. It doesn't stop him being a significant historical figure but expect his statue to be pulled down because he wasn't black.

    We English don't like the French for similar historical reasons but we don't go around knocking down Norman castles and screaming that William the Conqueror should be written out of the history books because he beat us at the Battle of Hastings. Sometimes you just have to take it on the chin that you lost the war and get on with it. I am starting to feel the same way about Wokeism, far to many saps are getting behind it or afraid to stand up for common sense.

    We should trash every Roman Villa, and burn every book with words that have Latin roots. That'll show 'em.

    I bet the victims of the harrying of the north, the serfs and the Victorians in the workhouses were glad they had white privilege.

    The bathhouses in Bath should be blown up.

    I am absolutely offended by them.

    Those Roman ****ing oppressors that probably might have murdered one of my relatives, maybe.
