Black lives matter in football, example would be that only 8 of the crystal palace team are black, so I am assuming the majority white fans are there to only support the 3 white guys.
I know the BBC has been covered by many, but the demise of some programs is so evident. I was always an avid watcher of question time, mock the week, hignfy, bbc news. And when I moved to Thailand 6 years ago, always looked forward to watching them on catch up at the weekends, but how the quality has dropped. I am watching the last few episodes of Mock and it is so unfunny. They have a couple of good comedians on, but the rest are just so weak, and rely on jibes at conservatives as their basis of being funny, gone are the days when they were edgy, and QT I usually fast forward now as the comments are so scripted. Hey ho, luckily GB news is around. I haven't tried talk tv yet.
Hi Nick, have had a further though on topics. could you review why British and Irish humour is the best in the world, closely followed in no particular order by Australia, USA and possibly Canada.
obviously the common denomonator is the English Language, other languages just dont appear funny. the fact I cant speak any language other than english should not cloud my prejudice against non english comedians
Of course I watched it mate, don't want to sound like a stalker but it's a guaranteed watch when you're on, most things that you do. Are we besties now haha
Humans want to watch, read, and listen to other humans who are interesting, open-minded, courageous, and cool.
That's why we call you Big Dog mate haha
Looking forward to this substack of yours Nick.
Haha.
Thanks, any particular topics I should cover?
The decline of the BBC.

May have already said my piece on BLM in football with these two articles I wrote for Spiked a while back:

BBC is a good call though. Thanks!
Thanks Nick, will check those out.

The big topic of the day, John Cleese and the meltdown of the left regarding his GBNews Show, whatever it is.
Yes now covered on HL as I'm sure you've seen, and may well do on The Weekly Sceptic tomorrow.

Also why we've never seen you wear glasses before haha
