It's odd to compare a light weight news channel to one popular animal show for children though.
It seems a bit 'selective' Rolling Eyes
It will take a place somewhere in the lower end of similar channels I would much rather watch it than Sky news and BBC get turned off as soon as they start inserting a Woke or Climate change lecture (about 90% of programming)

After all the build up I was expecting a heavyweight news channel. Instead it looked trivial and gossipy.

Yep, it's there wokery that will unseat the beeb.
Their past mistakes were papered over. But I'm hoping this current tidal wave of pish will finish them.

Or there is no God.

God has simply been replaced by various other unattainable utopia, the worshipping of which is often just as fanatical.

Only lefty snowflake wankers give a fuck.
I don't even know who any of these people are, knee takers, footballers, any of 'em, so-called anti-racists, racists. They could all die tomorrow and what difference would we notice in the world?

But don't try to tell me how to live my life based on your false, hypocritical virtue-signalling bollocks.

I think its more likely journos can smell blood and its time to gather the sharks. Priti Patel is despised across the board and only in the cabinet so Johnson could stick two fingers up at whats her name who preceded him.

No, there's not meant to be "free speech" in journalism, it's meant to be objective. Opinion pieces need to clearly marked and segregated from the rest of the content. Something MSM forgot long ago.

Maybe this "I used to be a journalist... then I took an arrow to the knee" bit was an opinion piece? I find myself unable to care enough to check.

I don't care if someone wants to "take the knee" (the IRA once had the monopoly on that Laughing ). What I care about is the compulsion on others to do such things.

Always hilarious to see the right, heartily embracing the cancel culture they supposedly hate.

I think what gets peoples back up is the penitent imagery in of kneeling and what that implies towards whites. Its clearly not what ML King had in mind, he was coming from a purely religious angle and as a pasivist it was a counter symbol to the more aggressive raised fist black power salute. There is a massive moral and emotional blackmail element though which never ends well. People will instinctively protect themselves from such manipulations by either adopting a contrary position or more like become ambivalent. I believe such ambivalence will in the long term do more harm as it will allow the really sinister white supremacist pro apartheid bunch to get a foothold.

Can you name some of them?

Normal people don't want identity politics, end of. It is divisive, and serves no other purpose, whichever end of the spectrum it comes from, and currently it is all coming from the left.

Yes Sir I can google.....
Sonnenkrieg Division (SKD)

National Action, racist neo-Nazi group that was established in 2013. It has a number of branches across the UK, which conduct provocative street demonstrations and stunts aimed at intimidating local communities. Its activities and propaganda materials are particularly aimed at recruiting young people.

The group is virulently racist, anti-Semitic and homophobic. Its ideology promotes the idea that Britain will inevitably see a violent ‘race war’, which the group claims it will be an active part of

The Base
The Base is a predominantly US based militant white supremacist group, formed in 2018. It draws influence from a collection of essays by prominent National Socialist, James Mason, which advocate the use of violence to initiate the collapse of modern society through a ‘race war’ and the subsequent creation of a white ethno-state. This ideology is known as ‘accelerationism’.

The Base has links with other internationally based National Socialist groups, such as Atomwaffen Division which was proscribed by the UK in April 2021, and individuals. It seeks to provide terrorist training, guidance and networking.

Seek and ye shall find, get triggered by BLM and they shalt find thee.

For a full list of nasties currently banned in the UK. Most are Islamic fundamentalists but theres a good smattering of Nazis in there. A lot of current investigations by our security services are apparently into far right groups as well but the perception is its all Islamic groups that present the threat.

What policies would you introduce to fight these groups, given that they are already proscribed, and any breaking of the law by them or their members is prosecuted, and punishment handed out as appropriate within the law?

The Labour Party (UK) The Democrats (US)

They do spend they're time pumping out the message that Whites are superior and all the poor minorities are incapable of managing on their own. And they're certainly pro-segregation and 100% proven racists.

If they're so much a threat, why couldn't you name them without having to look them up?
I would have had to look them up too.
