Boris Johnson steps down as MP with immediate effe.

————————————————————————————


It comes too late and too little but still it is very exciting to know it’s the end of his political career.

He and his party have ruined the country for far too long.

I am drinking to this for much jubilation.

Lineker 用到德國納粹來比喻，我都覺得係過咗火，但 BBC 郁佢更加唔啱，Lineker 只係自己社交平台發表個人意見，如果咁都話唔得，同當日港台殺 頭條新聞 無乜分別，甚至更過份。
利申：我覺得 英國政府 搬走班難民雖然係下下冊，但無可厚非。

Indeed it was very unfortunate.

It's a known fact that Lineker got a bit carried away, as he tends to do. Don't we all?

With regards to " 至於關唔關保守黨事, 我相信就算係工黨執政, 以現時嘅經濟狀況, 佢哋都會出同一招 " I don't quite get your point.

Are you suggesting that BBC bows to the Troy because BBC is subject to mercy with license fees and public funding? If so I am not so sure.

I believe the fundamental issue is that Tim Davie appointed as Director General of BBC in 2020 and his mission is root to his calling of "impartiality".

However, his advocate of some high profile should take more responsibility in social media and principle of "impartiality" don't seem to work under the leadership of his and the BBC Chairman Richard Sharp.

雙方都有不是, BBC搬龍門就日日都見, 連尼加亦過咗火位, 要知道出到希特拉嚟比喻好棹忌, 我估佢唔提希特拉嘅話就冇咁大件事。 至於關唔關保守黨事, 我相信就算係工黨執政, 以現時嘅經濟狀況, 佢哋都會出同一招, 只不過近年保守黨畀人掘咗好多'黑材料'出嚟, 基本上任何嘢都入曬佢哋數, 做同唔做都畀人鬧, 來屆大選應該輸硬。

The same for Alex Scott wearing “One Love “ armband in 2022 Qatar World Cup when players were banned by FIFA.

Why? Because it’s not the Troy she criticised.

Someone brought up a good point: if Lineker was "allowed" to criticize Qatar at World Cup, why couldn't he criticize his own country now?

我和degalle兄一樣，中英文也是半桶水．

首先Lineker並不是BBC 所謂合約顧員，他是freelance broadcaster，故一般來說不受制如長期合約顧員，尤其工作於新聞及時事節目。

Lineker的政治及個人意見只發出自其個人Twitters Account, 並非用上BBC及MOTD 任何 associated title.

從這兩方面去評論Lineker並無contradict 所講的BBC impartiality. 反之現在BBC卻是take side 於Tory 因為這個Home Secretary 發聲。她本身已有多scandals 但我不論因不關於Lineker 事件。

現在是Lineker受壓於Tim Davie不能在social media發表political views ，這若不是打壓freedom of speech，那是甚麼呢？

I quoted from National Union of Journalists (NUJ)

"Yielding to sustained political pressure in this way is as foolish as it is dangerous."
" 以這種方式屈服於持續的政治壓力既愚蠢又危險。”

這是為甚麼我支持Lineker and CO’s.

至於他是否Champagne Socialist，又或者他那”30年代德國政府政策” tweets 已經和這 “BBC v. Lineker” 無甚大意議了。

不過Champagne Socialists 總好過那些因和Tory有利益關係而幫肘為若，或不發聲。

現在於BBC News內high profile 概不泛這類人。

連尼加出名喺因為佢職業生涯裏面從未攞個牌。我覺得當年同期英格蘭及熱刺同窗加斯居尼應該勁過佢。

佢之前喺自己twitter出post將政府新加辣難民遣返政策比喻為'納粹希特拉'嘅行為, bbc將佢封咪, 係因為佢作為bbc僱員應該要事事持平, 唔可以表態支持或反對政黨政治及政府政策。

舒利亞嘅崛起, 應該係喺布力般何開始, 之後先翻返原居地紐卡素踢波。

年紀可能有咁上下，但未必個個中意睇波及留意邊隊波及球員，就講連尼加，我就只對佢踢熱剌及以後隊伍至留意，反之 Shearer 就長期踢喜鵲，好易記得及佢入波後手勢，至於Ian Wright 最有印象就係踢大砲隊。

我英、中文都唔夠好，或者需要高人指#716 及#721 所述，個人覺得好似有予盾^_^

我久唔久都跟下英國時事，前任內相已提過把非法入境者送去非洲盧旺達，以待所謂「難民」毋須在英國本土等候申請，原因當然係 Chi Gor 所講，避免負擔佢哋「利用」法律程序長期耗費英國社會資源。

Thanks for the feedbacks.

My last post is for the audience who may not know Gary Lineker. Of course, we old cakes would have known about Lineker pretty well from his upbringing in Leicester from a greengrocer working class family.

Your views on the current affairs posted here are very much welcome though I don't necessarily agree with them.

This post, I hope, can provide a place with freedom of speech as long as not malice and unfound personal attacks.

Please keep on sharing.

唔好意思, 我就唔係咁鍾意連尼加, 亦唔太鍾意BBC。 作為一個有喺英國交稅嘅人, 我認為一定要控制難民上岸。 講到尾, 連尼加只可以講係一個Champagne socialist。 英國每日幾千幾千個難民非法入境, 入完境之後你仲要無條件咁樣佢幾年, 當英國NHS都就嚟冧檔, 你去邊度搵咁多錢去養佢哋。我有朋友係律師, 有同一啲asylum seekers 做 applications 及覆核, 佢哋唔洗做又有得住酒店又有得食, 好過大把英國基層, application revolt 咗又再appeal, 又可以住多半年, 死未。仲有點解bb使要畀咁多錢請連尼加, 佢係bbc主持最高人工嘅一個, 一個禮拜出一小時,有咩貢獻呢? 講波時候亦唔係太客觀(因為佢出生李斯特城之後係熱刺球員)。

你話我右翼我都係咁講。


P.S. 我諗上得review33都有番咁上下年紀, 一定知道連尼加係乜水。

若早年已睇英超嘅會員，應該知連尼加係冰位，佢年代另一響噹噹人物係Alan Shearer

Thanks guys as your support is much appreciated.

Perhaps if you don't know who is Gary Lineker and what is all about this saga and here is a brief introduction.

" For many years, Gary Lineker has been one of sport's most famous faces - both on the football pitch and on television screens.

The 62-year-old is one of the most recognisable figures associated with the broadcaster, and is part of the footballing landscape in the UK.

He took over as host of the BBC's football highlights programme in 1999 after a stellar career as a striker for England, Leicester City, Everton, Spurs and Barcelona that finished in Japan.

One of the broadcaster's highest-paid presenters, Lineker is viewed by many as one of the faces of the BBC - and he has not shied from using his high profile to express his political views.

He has taken refugees into his home and spoken passionately about the need to protect people who come to the country in need.

*In a tweet on Tuesday, the Match of the Day host compared the language used to launch the government's new asylum policy with that used in 1930s Germany

*The BBC said it considered his tweets a breach of its guidelines and that Lineker will remain off air until it gets "an agreed and clear position on his use of social media"

*Following the announcement, other Match of the Day pundits dropped out of Saturday's show in solidarity with Lineker, including Ian Wright and Alan Shearer

Well said #716

#716
Hear, hear.

I have always been a loyal fan of the BBC due to their staff being professional, knowledgeable, brave and conscientious.

However, in recent years the top management has become so corrupt and biased that I felt these people will bring down the BBC.

This is reflected by the recent saga with the famous footballer and TV presenter Gary Lineker.

I admire Lineker for his outspoken political view which always being just, professional and humane.

I am so proud of him that he is not bowing to the pressure from Tim Davie, the BBC Director General, who himself has bowed to the Government shamelessly.

Also, I would also like to give my utmost respect to those who stand with Lineker and will not work with BBC until Lineker is being reinstated.

Revolution is starting now.
