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, ;) :D :-[ 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. :y :y :y

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. :-

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

So, without going into the madness of Marxism and how it may, or may not apply to the BBC ( :o :o  :o :o), 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! :P

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!! ::) ::)
FFS get a grip, they are one sided...promote there own agenda...funded by the EU...all they want to do is brainwash you with there side of the news and there side only...open your eyes woman.....

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. ;)

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" !! ::) ;D ;D ;)

Whilst I agree that £13 a month is not much to most people, Lizzie, it is a tax, make no mistake.

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.  :D
Btw, Ferrari are appealing against the penalty, so the result is provisional.
https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/143995/ferrari-intends-to-appeal-vettel-penalty
To appeal the penalty, they would have to get a change in the regulations. That ain't gonna happen.

To get this back on track!
It's a shame that if the appeal is turned down, the outcome isn't further punishment.  :y :y
That would make his team think twice?  ::) ::)

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 ;D.

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...

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.  :P

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 ;)

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 :D :D : 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. :-* :-* :-* 8) 8)

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! :D :D ;)

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! 8) 8) ;D ;D :y :y
