Gary Lineker stepping away from MOTD for time being

[King Silkbeard]

MOTD presenter won't be hosting this week and won't have pundits Alan Shearer and Ian Wright because of a Tweet Lineker sent out comparing British gvt to Nazi Germany, the pundits have decided not to show up on the show in solidarity.

To add to this story of suppressing free speech a David Attenborough documentary episode was axed for fear it would cause a backlash among right wingers.

Never watch MOTD. But I’m with Gary in this. Shame on the BBC.

Not the only censorship at the bbc.

Anger over BBC decision not to air episode of David Attenborough series highlighting destruction of nature Insiders fear the corporation has bowed to pressure from right wing lobbyists with “dinosaurian ways”

Fury over BBC decision not to air Wild Isles episode on destruction of nature

Britain is such a fucking stupid place.

I don't know why we are expected to take it seriously anymore.

Apparently Lineker has been told to step back from presenting MOTD

More when I get it.

Breaking: The Hindenburg airship has caught fire over New Jersey...


No news on fatalities yet.

Apparently Fiona Bruce made some stupid comment about domestic abuse too. Shambles of an organisation.

Gas that the BBC could ever take the moral high ground following the Saville affair.
