Non-dom status meaning that he has a massive tax break on his huge wealth for... stupid, historical reasons.

      A million scientists said to lock down and take a jab that had no substantial trials, that caused a great deal of harm to thousands, and then closed down any protests to lockdowns, any online criticism to the Covid policy and created a homogenous output which has now show to be very problematic. ..

      Well the British electorate were the muppets who were telling the psephologists in increasing numbers that they cared about Brexit - that so many idiots were sufficiently suggestible that they swallowed that garbage was all part of the snowball of representation over an issue that literally hijacked the country. Farage is a huckster in the pay of non-dom hedge fund managers and the like, but the referendum told us one thing at least, that Britain is at least 51.9% stupid…. No wonder the under 25’s would apparently prefer a dictatorship in increasing numbers…..

    The problem with the BBC is how that bias is stated; politically, socially and economically they show a centre right to far right bias in all programming which causes the left to criticise that bias, conversely some "light" entertainment programming shows a centre to centre left bias.
    Conflating these biases to show that they (the BBC) are unbiased because they get complaints from both sides of the spectrum, hides the real problem, political views are set by and for the establishment, "light" entertainment such as Lineker's comments being conflated with social, political and economic programming is the real issue.
    Impartiality should show that for every capitalist viewpoint, there is a socialist viewpoint, not a watered down liberal viewpoint. Capitalism is right wing, socialism is left wing, that is what would be impartial, on QT for example, there should be 3 capitalists (centre right to fascism) and 2 solicialists (social democrat to socialist) 1 week and vice versa the next.
    That would be unbiased political exposure, giving 5 spots to capitalist is biased as it does not represent the political spectrum.

    Emily Matlis (former BBC journalist) explained the BBC Impartiality process at a major TV conference. Apparently it took the BBC precisely 3 minutes to find an economist that thought Brexit was a bad idea (first call). They then carried on phoning other economists for a further 300 minutes to find one who thought Brexit was a good idea I.e. 100 to 1. They then put the two on TV to defend their positions but didn’t tell the viewers how difficult it was to find an economist who thought Brexit was a good idea. Pretty important information I think. This is the BBC definition of ‘impartiality’ but I would argue it’s the complete opposite of that. No wonder people were confused. So it’s no surprise then that the British public were split down the middle when it came to voting on Brexit as the BBC, the one supposedly ‘impartial’ broadcaster on our TV, gave viewers the impression that even the experts couldn’t agree on Brexit. Then of course there is the bias exposed in this video. Impartial my *&%#@.
