Same old, same old.

Pressure, crack with mistake, unsafe driving penalty, throw toys out pram again. 

[Entwood]

yup, totally agree .. what ever happened to accepting when you have screwed up and taking your punishment ?? and the petulant display at the end should get him a financial penalty as well.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Im not a fan of Vettel at all, but Im undecided whether or not he deserved the penalty. On the one hand, he cost Hamilton time by doing what he did,and may well have cost him the chance to pass him. On the other he came back on track between two concrete walls, so didn't have a lot of space to play with.
However, his petulance at the end makes me think he deserves it, so fack him. 
Btw, Ferrari are appealing against the penalty, so the result is provisional.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

On a slightly different note - I don't have access to SKY at the moment so have to suffer the inane commentary on Ch4.
David Coulthard seems to be involved in some sort of bet or competition as to how many times he can say "under rotation, over rotation, overspeed" and a few other phrases he repeats endlessly.
He,s a bland characterless irritating shite. 
And as for that Irish fella who commentates on Ch4 too. Hes a complete fickin idiot who has no clue what hes talking about. 

[Rods2]

Where I no longer do live TV where I totally refuse, totally refuse, to pay a bunch of Marxists providing me with a daily indoctrination through the TV tax. I just legally use the BBC website text & R5 commentary. As per usually, BBC don't realise being very anti-English Hamilton against their massive multi-million EU grants & support of zee German 4th reich EU empire, goes against their minority rules, hypocrites. But money (& EU grants) always, but always talks the loudest when you are being sold your news.

I don't ever forget it & nor should you.

Vettal is expected to announce that his is consulting with the FIFA, in F1 FIA rules disgust, about playing football instead. If he makes a mistake in the penalty area by going in with a last grasp studs up flying tackle mistake, it is up to the striker to get out of the way & take on the chin any advantage he has lost, where he can't control his studs up flying mistake.

[BazaJT]

If you want to see some proper overtaking[and at times some improper overtakes ] I'd suggest you watch the motorcycle racing The smaller classes are full of mainly young axe murderers and yes Opti there are also some female riders in the mix.Indeed the defending champion in the Sport 300 class[one of the support races in WSB] is a young woman.

[Varche]

No wonder folk love to hate F1

Smallest penalty available to the stewards who really were setting a precedent by giving it. I am thinking they should have just treated it as a racing incident ....but I have a sneaky feeling one day we will find out Vettel did position his car where he did when he came back in order to block Hamilton.

Bottom line is it was yet another mistake from a creaky Vettel under pressure. If he hadn't gone off  he wouldnt have been penalised.

[STEMO]

To appeal the penalty, they would have to get a change in the regulations. That ain't gonna happen.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Apparently the stewards decision was based on the fact that in car footage showed he steered to the right after he came back onto the track. I saw this today on one of the news channels and it does make it quite obvious that he deliberately blocked Hamilton from coming past.
It may have been an instinctive racing move, but its against the regulations, in order to prevent crashes (which could easily have been the result), so imo  he deserved to be penalised.
And as he is Vettel, they should disqualify him for failing to bring his car to the designated area after the race, and hang him for all his other antics, and being Vetell.

I would say it was no more than a racing incident. He had no control when he went off and no control when he rejoined the track. I really don't think his brain had the time to process that he would deliberately  push Hamilton toward the wall.

[Varche]

Then you under estimate the focus and speed that a racing driver possesses n the brain dept. That is their job and at a top level they are very good at it.

By definition that means it was an unsafe rejoin then   If he is not in control he is not safe. So deserves the penalty as per the rule book .....  Of course, if he WAS in control then it was a deliberate move so he still deserves the penalty .. 

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

if you watch the footage he can be seen making small steering adjustments to keep control, then once he rejoins the track one bigger steering adjustment to the right, as he instinctively knew that's where Hamiltons car was going to be.
It was Schumacheresque in the fact that he put Hamilton in a position of stamping on the brake pedal to avoid an accident, and thus staying behind him, or having an accident which would have taken both of them out of the race.

Blimey Rod, even for you, this is so serious when others are just talking about an F1 motor race!

So, without going into the madness of Marxism and how it may, or may not apply to the BBC (   ), you have decided that instead of contributing to the great programmes made by the BBC, and the BBC News that is envied throughout the World - in secret in China, Russia, etc - you expect the rest of the workers to pay for this service, whilst you, who can afford to get your enjoyment from catchup with the appliances that entails, saves money on some false political principal!! 

Your choice of course, and I respect that, but please do not link it to political principal crap!

If you really do know and understand the standards of other countries around the world, and their standard of TV, often censored or blocked, you would know how good the BBC is. Any doubt about that, well, just go to the USA and watch TV there, if you can bear it!!

My eyes are very open and cynical but I know the BBC, with all their faults, are the best broadcaster in the world, and recognised as such.

Once anyone starts applying their political point of viewpoints and allegence then you can always find fault with certain political productions, just as you can with the daily papers, but they are as fair and neutral as they can be in the media. As I stated before, just go to the USA and ( try) to watch their media. Then go to China or Russia and see how "balanced" their news reporting is (not!!)

As for they only state their side, and only that, just compare the same news with ITV or Sky. You will find the BBC presentation has in fact been as true as the other output. We know that all 'democratic' news channels are influenced by 'the State and propaganda, but when you have studied politics and the need to Defend the Realm, then you accept it but question it at the same time. That is life in our democracy, which in spite of all failings recently, is better than all others.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

If the BBC is the best broadcaster in the world, why not abolish the licence and make it pay per view, or float it on the stock market and sit back and watch it make more profit than SKY and Netflix combined ? 
Apparently the BBC buys something like 75,000 copies of the Guardian per year. That speaks volumes.

Because the production of their world beating output in terms of documentaries, natural world, general science, let alone many excellent dramas, not influenced by advertising revenue streams, takes money and unless you allow advertising, which in itself weakens the quality of output, as it has in the States, or apply additional taxation for all taxpayers, not just those who watch live TV.

I find it hard to believe that people object to paying just £13 per month when it is far less than going out for just one night. Then those same people pay a fortune for cable or satalite output.

It is of course their choice but, really? That is when I say "FFS, get a grip" !!

It's a shame that if the appeal is turned down, the outcome isn't further punishment. 
That would make his team think twice? 

[TheBoy]

I concur with that.

The beeb once did great content, and had a great online presence.  Obviously the regulators destroyed the online stuff.  And society destroyed the rest, so we tolerate daily drivel like knobenders, and nothing else.  The news is dumbed down to cater the the stupid, with no depth, and done in such away anybody could claim they are bias against their own views.

When they do it right, its great, but I can't remember the last time they made a decent series, factual or overwise.


I have Netflix at £9. Its pretty shite. But it has better content than the BBC at £13.  But I have to pay this useless £13.

Have a look at this weeks BBC schedule and see how many good documentaries, etc. there are. It was the best in the world 30 or 40 years ago, but now is a national disgrace with a permanent left wing agenda in almost everything it does.
Regardless of all that, the licence is a ludicrous concept in the 21st century, and it surely cant last much longer.
As I said, make it pay per view or float it on the stock market and let it survive in the real world. I don't see how its supporters could object to that if they are confident its the best on the world.

Oh Lordy me, now I'm agreeing with a mad irishman.  HELP!!!

You can rule out anything Attenborough has done in the past decade and a half, as its there to fuel the BBC's climate agenda that they were caught out on 20yrs ago.

So it mostly leaves the OU stuff, which mostly consists of particles being in 2 places at the same time .

I know the ladies find Prof Cox easy on the eye (can't see it myself), but its horribly dumbed down stuff again.


So I'm struggling to think of any documentaries the BBC has broadcast...

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Im also a bit confused by the deification of Attenborough. Hes a (was actually) very good presenter, but nothing more than that.
He often isn't even on the same continent when the footage is shot.
And any organisation which pays that moronic knobhead, champagne socialist, Lineker £1.8 million a year needs shutting down, just for that one act of madness.
And I don't mind being called mad. I even accept some people could see some justification in it. But I am not Irish. Im British.

Maybe it is, but various past government have always pushed the responsibility for collecting the licence, so collecting 'tax', onto the BBC.  Likewise the current row about over 75's not now due to get the licence free as from next year.  That should be a 'benefit' decision made by the government but the BBC is having to act like the DWP and stop it (as they need the money due to the government not giving them that 'lost' revenue as per usual  

[Lizzie Zoom]

The Beeb still do good costume dramas. 

Thank you Sir Tigger, like Line of Duty, Gentleman Jack,  then so, so many more that I am not going to waste my time listing but  anyone doubting the value of the BBC, just type in on Google BBC Best Dramas or any combination of that search.

As for Documentaries here are just some : https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/formats/documentaries/all?page=1

then for just 2019 so far:  https://www.thetvdb.com/series/bbc-documentaries/seasons/2019

Now I will not be foolish and say I have watched every one of them, but some I have and this all shows the actual BBC output that you can get for just £13 per month!!

And yes, Brain Cox I just love and his current Planets is just anothy BBC achievement.

Now does that satisfy those that are slagging off the BBC just because of SOME of their political output, and declaring it a "Marxist" type organisation, which, in MY opinion, knowing what I know of politics. philosophy, and those great men (yes, always men in the past!!_) with their theorie, is twaddle.  I look at life and personally apply the teachings of Plato and Thomas Hobbes to guide my thoughts, not Engels and certainly not a dreamer such as Marx!

BUT, I will add for ROD's benefit, and everyone else with different opinion, it is GREAT we all have different views, especially when it comers to politics, which, oh dear, the big B has proved yet again!   Thanks to those that fought WW2 and in particular the game changing D-Day (Did you see the Dan Snow BBC succinct, over two parts, documentary?) hat has given us the freedoms we enjoy today, which the "Marxist" BBC somehow gave great impartial, all round,  all inclusive coverage to!

                 Oh dear you’ve let the cat out of the box err.... bag now

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

Without looking it up, I suspect that the Beeb don't produce many of those programmes but buy them in from outside companies which have produced them, the same as the commercial channels do. 
Yet again, rather than force us by threat of imprisonment (soviet style) to pay for the Beeb. Why not just make it pay per view and let it make obscene amounts of profit, because its so much better than all the competition ? 

[TheBoy]

But I am not Irish. Im British. 

And European

[TheBoy]

like Line of Duty

I did watch that. On Netflix.  Although it started to get a bit predictably Jack Bauer for me.

[STEMO]

Line of duty became comical towards the end. A bit like it was being made up as it went along. A lot of these programmes should be killed off well before the sixth, seventh and eighth series, the writers run out of ideas and they become plain silly and unbelievable.
The last two series of Luther were just outrageous crap. It all started with Lost, Jesus that dragged on long after it should have been culled.

[TheBoy]

It all started with Lost, Jesus that dragged on long after it should have been culled.

That was good for about 2.5 series, and could have gone almost anywhere.  But it dragged, and like the X-Files, got itself in such a mess, it had nowhere (sensible) to go.

[Migv6 le Frog Fan]

But I am not Irish. Im British. 

And European

NEVER !                 

[Rods2]

The top three European state owned propaganda channels are:

1. BBC.
2. RT.
3. Sputnik.

Russia owns numbers 2 & 3 & make no pretense that they are anything other than state run propaganda channels to further the Kremlin's aims. Most Eastern European reporting on the BBC comes from their Moscow news centre. In the words of Sarah Rashford, one of their senior journalists: "We just repeat what the Kremlin press agents send us, that way it ensures we don't get into trouble and are forced to leave Russia." Where I followed in detail what has happened in Ukraine since 2008 you can clearly see that BBC items on Ukraine are clearly based on furthering the Kremlin's agenda.

The BBC's climate fraud and environmental fake news is an international embarrassment. Fortunately, the IPCC 'climate emergency' is a step too far and a massive backlash on the whole agenda is now in progress where there has been no global warming since 1998 and a sharp temperature drop over the last 3 years as we are approaching the end of solar cycle 24. Higher CO2 levels with our current CO2 correction, are our & all living things on this planet's friend, where CO2 has been dropping steadily for the last 140m years from about 3000ppm. Last ice age it dropped to about 150ppm with C3 plants getting into trouble below 120ppm & by 50-60ppm are all dead, which means all animal are as well. Sweet spot for CO2 with C3 plants is 600-1500ppm and C4 plants evolved once the Earth dropped below 800ppm & can survive at much lower CO2 levels but with the price of needing much more energy, which limits them to equatorial plants like maize, millet & the only fruit which is pineapple. Our burning of fossil fuels has massively benefitted all of the global ecosystem & with the downward trend we will have to look at other technologies in the future to keep boosting it once we have used all of the economically extractable fuels.

Personally, I don't care that all free lunches automatically attract the hard left like moths round a lamp. The BBC for their monopoly on live broadcasters & The Guardian for their 18-19 century trust for 'everlasting subsidies' but they have now managed to burn through all of it due to massive continued losses. I've never read The Guardian where it is not my sort of newspaper, but to watch any live TV you have to fund the BBC Marxists and their vile political agenda, which I'm not prepared to do & it is wrong, wrong, wrong that anybody should have to pay such a political levy in such circumstances. It is the sort of forced propaganda you would expect from Hitler or Stalin & has no place in a Western democracy.

The good news is that the TV tax is not sustainable due to non-live TV on demand like netflix & Amazon and others on the way from Apple, Google & Microsoft. Over 800,000 stopped paying for a TV licence in 2018 & I expect that to be much higher this year where it is continuing to gain momentum. For many older viewers due to their political agenda & endless repeats & for younger viewers that they prefer Netflix on the basic price of ~£80pa & Amazon at about the same. When Nigel Farage becomes PM he will abolish it.

The latest episode of exploring the boundaries of entertainment from the Beeb. Jo Brand (allegedly a comic) suggested on radio 4 this week that rather than throwing milkshakes over right wing politicians people should use battery acid instead. Incidentally, she used to be a nurse !
