It is a toss-up who is more ridiculous the BBC the tories or the brexit generation of voters. But never mind Auntie will be holding a special Question Time to mark the 7th anniversary of the Brexit referendum... reserved exclusively for Leavers. Come on down, Clacton-on-Sea. That's right: their audience will consist entirely of people who inflicted Brexit on the rest of us. Bias, much?

It's like Germany in the 1930s.

and to participate in any BBC studio discussion ? especially for politics ? no way. Get a balanced discussion and get to argue your case ? you would have a better chance in a cage of Hyenas at London Zoo. the only time i would participate, would be to Troll the Live event with questions about Jimmy Savile.

A minor irritation, the U21 Euros started y/day, England are currently playing today(1-0 47m). What are the bbc doing about coverage for this tournament, abso-bloody-lutely diddly squat Support your country . . . Yeah, right.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Don't get me wrong, I think we all support these outlets existing. However, the egalitarian politics that are pushed by it immediately turn off many. The left/social liberals want to push politics into every area of life like some kind of ever present Maoism. Only a minority of women are interested in competitive sports whether it's male or female. Ronda Rousey, the former MMA fighter was right when she said that people, women or male, should be paid in line with how much they financially bring in.

Give it some air time but it has to be a natural progression with the public deciding if it’s for them. Same as all the trans crap. Push it and it gets so annoying as to make it a pain in the arse and who cares !

Politics aside, they have sold 80,000 + tickets for the Australian women's tour events. I know! The audience will be a mixed crowd and probably include 1000s free tickets handed out to bemused school girls who will be looking primarily at a day off school. However, the hope that the events will reach young girls and inspire them is optimistic. The TV audience will be 95% adult males happy to watch any sport so long as they don't have to move.

Very true....attractive young women doing anything will bring a certain understandable audience. And the enjoyment of sport, even if we are 'Homer Simpson like' in enjoying it, is just a very common male pursuit.
