THE IMPARTIALITY OF THE BBC?

 Impartiality. Or on the opposite side of the that word who decides what is and what isn’t impartial or partial?

Breaking news as we are told Football Focus will not be on our screens to go with MOTD that will go out without the presenter or the usual pundits. Wow. Solidarity between those that present and comment upon our national support is emphatic. 

Mr Lineker knows the game and has been part of the show since 1999. That’s some stint and he is wealthier as a result. 

I can comment upon Alan Shearer constantly ‘banging-on’ about VAR and which can remove most of human error and Lineker’s reference to anything about  the 1930’s in Germany. It may be relevant the words that he chose to use but with today’s media and newscover there will be many that will object to any reference the Holocaust. Hence the media furore and BBC management deciding to remove a flagship show. There is going to be more to follow and what will be the fallout?

So, what will happen to free speech? It seems its okay for some, for those who can say nay will do so. Driven, maybe by their power and their political views to object and to impose sanctions.

We are in a period of change with popular presenters leaving to go elsewhere. Ken Bruce for one. 

BBC produces a plethora of excellent programmes but when it comes to. The News, it is so bland. GNNews is more upfront and maybe I will switch back to Sky. BBC - you have shot your selves in the foot.

At a time of political unrest with the unions, issues with our National Health Service and the ‘War in Ukraine’ and Wildlife Crime, I would suggest there should be more about the vital issues. So get in with it. Sort it and lets have some good reporting. 

Take the politics out (unlikely) and let free speech, rule Okay, but bearing in mind the caveat that everything that is said must be with responsibility.
