What’s happened there? Is this the post natal people stuff from the midwifery council?wonder if the BBC will edit out the trans rights stuff now that's had a twitter backlash?

Someone mentioned it in the gneder threat, I wanted to watch, annoyed it is not on catchupDon’t suppose anyone saw cancelled on c4? Can’t get it on demand and wondered if sites would have been mentioned.
I think channel 4 are still having lots of technical issues, they seem to be in a bit of a mess since that sprinkler went off a couple of months ago!Don’t suppose anyone saw cancelled on c4? Can’t get it on demand and wondered if sites would have been mentioned.
True. Whatever criticism you can make of Tattle no one here has used blackface and grotesque racial stereotypes to abuse a black person.Baddiel trolled Jason Lee for years ....every week on a national TV show and even had a song that rival fans would sing at the player week in week out for years. (I think Jason Lee even came out in last few years and said that it had a massive effect on his mental health ** I'm not 100% sure on that).
Nice of him him to come down off his high horse and create a doc to educate us all.
There was a documentary about it earlier this year. If memory serves correct it was from the BBC news channel about Sportsmens' mental health, especially footballers.Baddiel trolled Jason Lee for years ....every week on a national TV show and even had a song that rival fans would sing at the player week in week out for years.

So the BBC did a documentary about the harm they were complicit in (by broadcasting blackface in the late 1990s). Would be nice if they too could acknowledge their part in it.There was a documentary about it earlier this year.

There really seems to be no logic in it does there?!I find it amazing that some people can get 'cancelled' for something that seem utterly trivial yet others plough on despite their actions.
Connections, dahlink! (ie the ones who get away with it all went to public school and/or are related to the higher-ups. The media, especially, seems to be completely ruled by a toxic mix of classism and nepotism).I find it amazing that some people can get 'cancelled' for something that seem utterly trivial yet others plough on despite their actions.
Very true. They all seem to know each other. And oddly there also seems to be a sort of untouchable clique who all got chummy on twitter a few years ago (when it was smaller and before the great unwashed got their mitts on it). Sali Hughes, Caitlin Moran, India Knight and yes David Baddiel amongst many others formed networks/friendships through it.Connections, dahlink!

Yeah that kind of chat is dripping in classism. But also there's a kind of nervousness about it, because many of the people who critique them are just demonstrably more clever than they are, and I'm sure they see that. They find it harder and harder to conceal their hypocrisies when folk outwith the inner circle start commenting. It's great!I think it is why they are all so misty eyed about social media *back then*. How much kinder and nicer it was, when they could all behave terribly and get very little criticism for it.

One of the reasons they all hate Tattle so much They could all s l ag people off, such fun! But do it here and it is bullying and trolling.
They were still airing blackface in the 2000s and possibly 2010s with David Walliam’s and the other bloke’s show!So the BBC did a documentary about the harm they were complicit in (by broadcasting blackface in the late 1990s). Would be nice if they too could acknowledge their part in it.
She wasn’t cancelled for not being woke enough, she was literally scamming women SMB owners!Clearly they're all in the "secret society" that Tattle-exposed scammer Sarah Akwisombe alludes to in this beauty of a twitter rant

Do they have a secret handshake? Maybe a password? Is there some metropolitan West London hangout they all go to thar has one of those little letterbox openings to check their identity before admission?
Matt Lucas and Little Britain?They were still airing blackface in the 2000s and possibly 2010s with David Walliam’s and the other bloke’s show!
Just googled it and both in 2003 with little Britain and 2010 with come fly with me at least one of them did it & the BBC aired it. Netflix subsequently hosted the content too!Matt Lucas and Little Britain?
I mean the black face thing was always unacceptable, they just can’t ignore black and ally voices anymore.It's weird how stuff from less than twenty years ago is now becoming unacceptable and non-politically correct. I wonder how time will view, say, Derek by Ricky Gervais?
