And what was the context of Jo Brand’s comment?

Political correctness gone mad, but only if it fits your rhetoric, eh?

I believe she made a "joke". My comment wasn't about what she said but what the BBC appear to be doing.

Apparently said remark is to be edited out of the programme whereas said remark seems to appear on random news programmes on R4.

It was on the midnight news today.

Surely drowning in a butt of Malmsey would be more appropriate really, toper that said politician is alleged to be.

Keep Brand and give Danny Baker back his job. Sorted.

Why?

Why?

Freedom of expression should be a level playing field.

I agree but, I don't think that we are at that stage just yet.

Sack Brand - let society realise how ludicrous the whole situation is.

The more they favour one side and show such bias the more society will push back. We'd probably not be leaving the EU is this bias wasn't so strong. But they'll keep doing it anyway...

Back on topic - looks like this isn't going to be WW3 or even war with Iran:

US Releases "Smoking Gun" Video Of Iran's Navy Handling Mine On Tanker Hull | Zero Hedge

US Central Command issued a statement just hours after Pompeo officially blamed Tehran, saying in a CENTCOM press release that “a war with Iran is not in our strategic interest, nor in the best interest of the international community.”

Crucially, the statement continued: “We have no interest in engaging in a new conflict in the Middle East,”

The officials said they didn’t know for sure whether the mines were Iranian. The U.S. concluded that Iran was responsible for the attacks based on intelligence sources and the absence of any better explanation, the officials said. They declined to elaborate on the intelligence sources.

Here's the Bloomberg article being quoted by ZH for all you 'fake news' people.

The more the snowflake, virtue signaling, hand wringing, politically correctness gone mad Wailers keep spinning about how the BBC doesn't do something or does the same thing so much, the more it is clear that it's not the Beeb who are unbalanced and need to take a look at themselves.

True. It is CUK mods who are the worst.
