BBC just been told to stop filming in the parliament lobby

It stinks, how can they decide that you cant film protests against the government?
It goes hand in glove with other ideas thought up by government; like the restrictions on strikes and the cutting of the short payments that are specifically designed for the party in opposition to hold the government to account.

It doesn't exactly instill in me the idea that this is a democratic nation.

They put it up on the website

So how is this not interfering with the free press then?

its so silly stunts cant be pulled with a compliant media ,and prob a good rule .
The problem of keeping PC and avoiding the uneasiness  of able bodies policing  a disabled protest would easily be negated if they put cops in wheelchairs ,problem solved imo .

So are you saying that its fine for them to regulate exactly what is good form during a protest against the ruling government?

Its not for government to decide what others make of it, tha's kim jong il territory.

It was disability protesters - I thought they were supposed to be ill?

It makes you laugh, they can do anything except work.

No not saying that ,if its all kicking off inside parli not a great idea to have it broadcast ,keeps the wheels of democracy from being stopped imo .Dont think they normally allow a protest in the lobby tbh .
No i dont think people do want to see it ,and the media should be speaking to them and letting them get their points over ,showing a rammy helps noone imo ?

I know you do it for effect crippen, but that pretty 5hit all round sausage.

It doesnt matter who they were, the fact that because there is a protest on the premises the press have to stop.

Hang on BnB.

People arnt forced to watch the news, the news is the news of the events that are happening.
If people feel obliged to hold the government to account then who are the government or any politician to say it cant be filmed on the premises?

That very point is democracy of which you speak, not the manipulation and opaqueness of those who wish us not to see what is happening

but that pretty 5hit all round sausage.

What on earth does that mean?

In that a new streetwise lingo or something?

you were demeaning the disabled you t1t

I finally got to that link Degs, think you need to put the '.' on the line above.

This is basing itself in semantics.
The technicality outlined is that the protest wasnt relevant to the days proceedings.....which is total horse 5hit as the news doesnt books days to make news.
If something happens, and it did then it should be free for the press to report it.

That is the point, doesnt matter how contrived they attempt to make it.

dustybin,

Who are you calling a t1t you foul mouthed wazzock.

If you don't like what I post you can go and stuff yourself.

If you can't post English then don't address me.

Order Order ...30 min recess ,reconvene after tea

Im calling you a t1t for making poor jokes at the behest of those less fortunate.
Ive seen plenty of your comments over the time, many of which Ive smirked at knowing you are attempting to be pernicious but saying derisory things of the disabled is out of line.
There go the grace of god.

there but for the grace of god
even

Who are you to call people names over what they post?

You need to watch what you post in future

Learn some manners, you're not in the school playground here.

what in the court of crippen?
You can say those things of the disabled but I cant call you a tit for saying it?
Get real fool

Coming on here calling people names.

Who do you think you are?

I am....quite within my rights when you try to makes jokes at the expense of those less able

dustybin - did you call yourself that because you're full of sh!t?

what is it that makes you laugh exactly about the disabled crippen?

Shut up you big child - why don't you go and protest somewhere.

Why not answer the question?

I couldnt careless about you crippen you are insignificant.
If you want to make an issue out of me calling you a tit over those such comments then fine

Go on a march or something, that's you oversensitive silly do-gooders do isn't it.

Probably unemployed as well.
Living on benefits.

No wonder you're touchy about handouts.

Why not answer the question?

Why should I, you never answered mine.

I still don't know what you were babbering on about.

I've got to go now.

I'll be watching out for you in future with your name calling.

crippen
You have come out punching and not landed a glove.

I assume you are getting on by the sentiment of your comments.

Cripes crippen Ill have to really watch myself with you watching me.

I have Crappin blocked.
This type of comment from him, proves why.

The guy is a total c n. t

I take most with a pinch of salt, we all have an opinion, crippen's tends to be rather old school but thats the way it is.

What he cant do is get precious after making comments that are intrinsically vitriolic. (supposed to be ill-ffs)

I rather suspect hes getting left behind, the irony is the time will come when he too is less able and I wonder if he will then be as dogmatic?

And what are you Facts if not a piece of filth who simply stalks others on here?

As for the dustbin.

He's just typical of the type of vermin who supports stuff like disrupting parliament by protesting in government buildings instead of working.
While other have to go out to work to pay his benefits.

He's just another toe-rag as far as I'm concerned.

I take most with a pinch of salt

No you don't dustbin.

You call people names if you disagree with them as can be seen here.

Yep, that's the difference between the words 'most' and 'all'.

I called you a tit because what you said warranted it.

No you didn't you liar.

You called me a name not because of what I wrote about the disabled protesters,  but after I'd ridiculed your choice of words in my post addressed to you.

Now admit it - that's what got you riled up you silly berk.

Dr Crippen you have a cheek taking offence at anyone considering the insults and digs you spew.

No it wasn't.

The two are one and the same. I said your attempt at a joke demeaning the disabled was 5 hit all round.
The fact you felt the need to attempt to pull me over saying that lead me to call you a tit as anyone who would say what you did is contemptible in my eyes.

Whatever 'ridicule' you think you do against me has no substance as far as I'm concerned as I've already told you I find you insignificant.
It's laughable that you told me to grow up yet you are the one turning tiny tears.

fife,

Who the hell are you?

What stone did you crawl out from under?

I've netted three berks on the same thread:

Facts, dustbin and fife.

Job done I'd say.

You ask of Fife who he is and in the same breath suggest he's come from under a rock.

Just goes to show the warped logic of a bitter and bigoted fool.

dusty

Don't waste your time. The tw@t is the biggest troll on this forum.

Dr Crippen living up to your reputation as possibly the most obnoxious poster on the forum.

I'm actually pitying the guy Facts.
Strikes me as the type who's probably spent his life blaming others and kicking people's walking sticks away.

Sort yourself out crippen ffs man.

He revels in it.
It's the only highlight in his sad pathetic life

Every thread he posts on he always finds a way to insult someone or some group of people, I wonder if he is mentally ill rather than just bitter and twisted. No doubt he will be along shortly to put me right on the matter.
