The blatant hypocrisy is there for anyone with eyes to see The lack of self awareness with these people never ceases to amaze. Lineker complaining about cancel culture is like the devil complaining about the heat.

Lol. Teletext would have rainbow text now and be available in pigeon. It was discriminatory to those with disabilities anyway: it wasn't available in braille.

Furthermore calling the button 'red' is clearly derogatory towards indigenous North American people. In fact the actor Red Buttons ('The Longest Day' et al) is well in the firing line for cancellation.

It's going to be even better when they remove the gender, heightist and weightist language too.

Sorry just so we're clear the proposed policy is amoral. But Lineker is wrong and the bbc 2 faced on this. Normal service?
