    In all seriousness some people become very mentally unwell by their drip drip Twitter echo Chambers.

    The Gammon sniffer guy is in a really dark place mentally.

    It's extremely addictive & harmful, he thinks he's on the front line of some political war on the internet.

    He didn't have to back down to anything, go and see the full version on his channel, rather than that edited bolloxs. They were all getting along fine to start with, they were hardly in the video, despite him claiming they were a Japanese film crew at first, then resorted to going down whatever other route he chose next, Japanese, Chinese, and if that didn't fit lets go Commie - I felt it was bad manners on his part...he wanted it to go down a particular path so it did. Was he being racist, I think unconscious bias played a part or as Si said 'a bit inflammatory.' It wasn't actually a very big ask what they put to him originally - do I think he will lose subscribers due to it, quite possibly internationally. You don't have to jump on the bandwagon just because some guy on the internet (Youtube) wants you to.

    It wasn't so much the flag itself, but what they were trying to represent through it, even though they wouldn't dare try that in China.

    The key part is that they were wrong in what they were demanding, and plod should have just ****ed them right off. As a consequence of their arrogance and plod's incompetence, people have lost the pleasure of hearing the musicians.

    I've watched not just the full clip, but also the other background clips, and that lass is getting sued in China for using someone else's image on her social media. <laugh>

    yeah , twitter is toxic . I tried to be on it for music only but your feed ends up with so much toxic PoV it can only do harm.

    same with watching the fear porn news . The ‘storms’ reporting right now would make you think we were facing an apocalyptic event .

    my glass bin blew over !

    First rule of public photography.

    Don't walk towards a person holding a camera filming.

    Nobody has the expectation of privacy in a public space .

    The Chinese people were probably filming for state TV & became annoyed with the piano in the background

    Rather than demand they are not to be filmed they should have either filmed elsewhere or come back later.

    Perhaps they asked permission to film in Kings Cross as they were a media company not just a random YouTube channel livestreaming but they have no right to boss an Englishman about in his own country.

    Morally ethically or legally

    Apparently lefties tend to only follow lefties & righties tend to follow both sides .

    They tend to be the ones demanding people get banned because the thought of someone holding an opposing opinion is unbearable.

    Musk has brought more balance it's not just the FBI & the DNC controlling it now Apparently I still don't have an X account though
