Gary Lineker takes a pay cut

Recommended Posts

£1.75m isn't a bad wedge to start off with and it would be interesting how many over 70 Licences that would pay for, or how many honest Johns you could prosecute for not paying the medieval salt tax of the Licence. It is not as if the BBC doesn't already indulge in advertising - fucking advertising itself all the time: they haven't stopped talking about the BBC Proms since July.  Another point is calibre. Linekar is a greedy little shit who has greased his palm with Walkers Crisps concurrently with his BBBC Sports job. Conflict of interest? Fat and salt versus golden balls well in at the Beeb? That guy who presents EFL on Quest is fucking miles ahead of Lineker and you have to ask the question, what has he got over the BBC bosses? Fucking abolish the lot of it. Most of the archive of programmes has been licensed off, its ceased showing the top flight of sport... or anything... save one or two of its chummy public school boy favourites like Wimbledon where cunts like Andy Murray who is unanimously hated across England is routinely discussed as if he were a national treasure... has ceased creating genuinely funny comedy sketch shows. It seems to me it only exists as a free propaganda service for NATO in the World Service paid for out of the Licence Fee and a state propaganda service for Britain if ever the need arose. While the govt. hangs on to it for those reasons, maggots like Lineker and others will work the system behaving exactly as if it were a private business but paid for completely disproportionately by the least well off in society. Time to consign Lineker and the BBC to the rubbish bin. I wonder whether he could get £1.75m anywhere else?

I think Pen has said it best previously- we could keep the BBC, but it needs to be reformed back to basic news and current affairs.  Scrap the third rate drama, scrap the "misery porn" programs about failed surgeries, cancer and other nightmare shit that no sane person finds entertaining, only make comedy if its actually funny, give up trying to cover sports as commercial channels are already doing this better, and most importantly, stop making as many programs as you can for tiny minorities like drag queens/trannies which the majority of viewers/listeners have zero interest in.  

And obviously, don't piss a third of the budget away on the salaries of a few "big names" you could happily live without.

You are easily satisfied. The news arm is the fucking worse part of its output. The regional news is shit and looks cheap. The presenters fucking depressing. National news never deviates from its World Service routes. Has the reporting on Iran or Nazanin Zahari Radcliffe ever been more than a Yankee script written for the Persian Propaganda Service? Has reporting on Russia, either cutrent, historical, documentary or travel ever been more than denigrating and negative? It is a fucking steaming pile of Oxbridge public school boy and girl shite.

W&D you'd still end up paying a token shit TV tithe - they'll say & 15 wat a bargain! - to the govt so it can carry on with its propaganda activities.

That's the reasoning behind him and his kind getting paid (not 'earning') a kings ransom - that it's needed to secure / retain the very best talent.....de-dah de-dah....

Okay, let buccaneering free-market capitalism roll then. Turn Lineker out and see if anyone else is interested in him - replace him with a fucking 'speak your weight machine' that can transfer words from autocue to microphone without the distraction of having to go via brain.

Just replace them all with a still photo test card...

They could have a little (black) girl playing scrabble with a (gay) clown. The words on the scrabble board would read:

GAY AND BLACK GOOD 

WHITE AND STRAIGHT BAD

that just about covers their entire agenda.

As I said Colin Murray who presents EFL on QUEST is fucking great. Trouble with the BBC is endless sycophancy (look at Peter and Dan Snow) sinecures, getting your feet under the table, the old school tie. Orwell called it a Girls Boarding School. Time to shuv the lot. Let the public school boys and girls and their favourites look for employment elsewhere - they get plenty of it due to mum and dad. Fuckers.

Exemption from tv license should be only be for people on basic pension. My parents , in their eighties have a combined pension of around 40k a year...they don’t need winter fuel payment or free tv licence. There are a great many like them. Give it to those who really need it....without works pensions.

I am easily pleased.  I would be happy with a very basic news service and occasionally an in depth investigation like Panorama.  I don't own a TV set, so I only listen to the radio and read articles via a tablet.  I think the reporting on Iran has actually been quite balanced, and in fact the BBC is usually a bit soft on Russia and doesn't really put the boot in.

What I would like is to be able to pay only for the parts of the BBC output which are meaningful to me.  The service I use most is Radio 6, which you don't have to pay to access, but I personally would be happy to pay a small annual fee if it meant I could keep listening to radio 6.  Its the other bloated parts of the BBC which I would happily see axed.  Like the soap operas and all the similar worthless dross.

I think the whole lot should be scrapped I know many Tory MPs want that. I'm sure some of the brighter sparks from the stations you like would be able to mount a similar private station along the same lines as there's a good market for talk radio outside of the BBC as the quality of modern music has declined to the point its unlistenable to any normal person over age of 15. We need to get over this national fetish of worshipping the past to the point of paralysis and stagnation and shying away from radical progressive change. EG. HS2, which is really High Speed One!!!!

You'd think with all the money that this bedwetting little cunt has, he'd get his lugs sorted, especially in the current climate. I bet he hires a team to help him get his face mask on and off.

Also, if being gay is nothing to ashamed of, why hasn't he come out yet? The bloke's a fucking charlatan.
