Anyone else noticed a steady stream of this sort of thing on the BBC news front page recently?

If it's not race then the other big thing at the moment seems to be gender and kids.

They have to do this sort of thing to counter the huge number of bigots about. (Just look at this forum to gauge how many)

I'm not understanding why so many people expend so much energy hating others for just being different to them.

Britain and the BBC are preaching tolerance, get over it already.

I don't think they are qualified to preach anything , don't trust the BBC, they don't deserve to be trusted.

You see, when some people start to preach , something within me starts to laugh and jeer

maybe I shouldn't do that.

I agree, preaching can be irksome, it was just a careless use of an adjective by myself.

The BBC are race mad. It needs shutting down.

I saw quite a good programme on culture etc in pakistan and india.  Very interesting how they are pushing the boundaries of fixed ideas and religion. etc

However, each time an area was discussed art, clothes, media, there were overiding or qualifying comments about how women were threatened or guys particularly gays etc etc -  so any progress was so limited.  Yet the good old bbc push the agenda.
