//I stopped watching when they increased the number of panel members. It lost its “tightness” after that.//
No-one gets time to say anything much, except Fiona Bruce of course who spends the whole time interrupting people while they're answering a question, to tell them to answer the question, like most TV journalists.

Love it.
I detest, with an all encompassing passion, when an 'ism' or an 'obe' is employed when there is no ism or obe.
It is merely a device used to stifle debate by the stupid.
Unfortunately I have seen this device employed on this site over the years so many times it is laughable, and all it simply means is that the person using it (a) doesn't understand the meaning and (b) has well and truly lost the argument.
Only recently, and if I could be arsed I'd provide the AB link, there was a member, who's name I can't be bothered to remember, who suggested any questioning of transgenderism was 'obic'. They, of course, were and are an idiot, but it neatly demonstrates that ANY questioning of anything that is perceived to affect a minority is heresy.
Frankly, it's pathetic.

^^^Indeed Naomi.
I pressed 'Answer Now' too quickly. Note to self...read, re-read, and then re-re-read.
But fundamentally I think my post was clear(ish) enough, in that people who nasally whine about a perceived slight against [insert a 'persecuted' minority of your choice here] when there is no persecution are, for want of a better description, bedwettingly pathetic.

With absolutely zero sense of irony, Lily Allen has said that she is sick of luvvies like Fox forcing their opinion on to other people.

On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a total tit is Lily Allen?

I am reminded of a time (in the 1980s) when I walked into a classroom on a 'cover' lesson (didn't know the class or vast majority of the kids). As I opened the door there was a general scrambling for seats - except for one kid who was dancing on a table and continued to do so. He ignored my first, polite request, to come down and settle down - so I vehemently sent him out of the room (this would obviously result in a punishment) and as he exited he yelled out 'It's because I'm black!'. So were over half the class by the way.
Where we are now is a development of this. Completely out of order by the easily-offended mob and it needs stamping on now. Been left far too late i.m.o..
