    Sunak to make a statement today stating an emergency law is being rushed through Parliament to prevent any new TV docudramas being commissioned without government approval. Starmer will state 'down with that sort of thing!' But a week from now will flip-flop & say a labour government wouldn't overturn this legislation.

    One of the many problems with Tory Britain is that comedy is no longer comedy, it is simply pointing out the truth with a thin layer of sarcasm. It turns out truth is stranger than fiction

      One thing popped up when Starmer was trying to get out of his involvement. He was boasting that he and the CPS had made 4 million prosecutions. Given their rate of failure with the Post Office, think what that means with regards to the victims of the CPS.

      ​@adenwellsmith6908 I worked in an office on the same floor as our local CPS. And I can honestly say, they were an arrogant bunch of a-holes. They would physically push past us to get through doors or into the lift first. No amount of indignant comments from us seemed to have any effect.
      We could see into their office from the corridor. Folders, presumably cases for prosecution were piled up on the floor by the desks at the end of the day. Nothing was locked away. The cleaners actually refused to clean in there because case files were left open on desks with witness names and addresses on display. The cleaners said, quite reasonabĺy that if anything happened to a witness, they didn't want to be accused of involvement. Our office moved out about a year later, and the cleaners were still boycotting the room. It must have been filthy by then.

Henry and Harriett in Tunbridge Wells will moan that it shows the rampant left wing bias of the trendy tofu eating "So called intellectuals" at the BBC, while Sebastien and Jocasta of Islington will snipe that the exact same item shows the disgraceful pandering of the BBC to the out-of-touch, conservative right wing imperialist anti-vegan patriarchy.

      It was the BBC who first brought the post office scandal to wider public attention after the problems were detailed in a computer trade publication. Radio 4 ran an eight part investigation into it a few years ago and has broadcast several follow up programmes.
      But they were only on the radio and "If it hasn't been on telly with somebody out of Corrie in it to make us watch, we didn't know about it."

      I was hoping youd ask...the latest actor to play the character of Doctor Who (a TV programme) is not White. This has troubled some prejudiced viewers. If, as suggested in this video, a TV drama based on the Grenfell scandal were to be made, it's likely many characters would have to be non-White also owing to the ethnicity of many of the victims at Grenfell. I am implying that to commission such a drama would cause some TV casting executives to worry that they might exceed an imaginary quota of non-White actors they operate in order to avoid an undue volume of complaints from those prejudiced viewers. You may find yourself chuckling at the thought. Or not.
