In June 2022 Fox tweeted the image of a swastika made from the LGBTQ progress pride flag.

How long before the usual suspects start performing eye bulging tantrums dubbing GeeBeebies 'woak' or 'virtue signalling' or 'cancelling free speech'.

Whilst no doubt denying any evidence of misogyny taking place whatsoever.

But they can sleep tight in the knowledge a whole host of characters such as Farage or Starkey banned from every proper platform can still peddle their filth without fear of facts intervening...

What platform is Farage banned from?

Seen him on the mainstream news outlets BBC/ITV/Sky recently? Hopefully they are just avoiding using him as a talking head, he's not been on QT for ages either.

I tend not to watch the woke news outlets, like the BBC, but neither have I seen any reports, or indeed Nigel himself saying he’s been banned from those platforms. Happy to be proven otherwise.

Well here's one (trigger warning: it's a good honest and unbiased Beeb report): https://www.bbc.co.u...t-arts-53006006

And as said, now not touched by proper platforms.

A genuine enquiry, though. We know most advertisers don't associate themselves with GeeBeebies, either because the audience is too small or the propaganda it peddles, but does it carry the same appeals from charities seen on mainstream teevee? Save the Children, Wateraid, Unicef and the like?

Joking aside it obviously panders to a certain demographic, so I just wondered if these organisations bother given it's attitudes towards needy foreigners...

LBC sacked him, mate.

It's there, black and white, in the link I posted.

For comparing BLM to the Taliban.

But hey, such filth is obviously welcme on your channel of choice.

So, the question I posed....?

So not banned? What about all the other main stream outlets?

[Manfred Archie Mac Gerbil]

The LBC hierarchy are very close to the hierarchy at Couts bank (almost interbred), magic hat club and all that.

Farage was never gonna last at LBC after he exposed the scandals at crooked Couts, they inevitably snook him out the back door.

“Farage banned from every proper platform”. you said. So yes I agree with the “FFS.”
Losing a show on LBC doesnt equate to being banned from every “proper platform” although I’m sure you’d enjoy that form of cancel culture.

Not at all..you stated Farage has been banned from “proper platforms”, ok he’s no longer a radio show host on LBC, but I genuinely fail to see how this equates to being banned from “proper platforms”… so yes FFS x3

So you're championing one of the most disgusting and discredited characters in politics sober?

Blimey - now I need a drink.

But hey, as you're adding pedantry to whataboutery, let's change the 'banned' to 'sidelined'. Or maybe 'marginalised'. Or perhaps 'not given airtime'.

Or banned in all but name.

Of course I might be getting this the wrong way 'round as it's actually Farage who's chosen to snub mainstream media.

Yeah, why bother with outlets that might challenge him with the truth when he can peddle fact free propaganda on GeeBeebies no questions asked...

PS: guess your dodging the charity appeals thing is kind of an answer in itself...

It’s not pedantry, you stated something that’s quite clearly not true. He’s not banned by proper media outlets.
Farage disgusting and discredited? In your political view, yes in your view I suppose he is. But why bother with outlets that might challenge him? Tbh when ever I’ve seen him interviewed he seems to handle himself very well, of course you won’t agree because he’s the polar opposite of your left wing view, hence the wish to see him marginalised.
And I don’t know if there’s a dearth of charity appeals on GB news, it’s not something I’ve noticed and I imagine the majority of the population switch off during adverts anyway. I donate to who I want to donate to regardless of tv advertising.
Edit..I’ll pay attention to the adverts now when I’m watching, but being as I’m sure you don’t watch the channel which left wing news feed did you get that info from?
