The BBC's "security risk" Christmas Tree is chopped up.

If the BBC are trying to abolish Christmas, does that mean they won't be screening their usual torrent of festive repeats?

Of course not crips,thats how the day staff fix it to have longer holidays with skeleton staff plugging in the repeats.

I expect the BBC's Security Department were absolutely terrified about the threat from the many non-existent Right-Wing Extremist White Supremacy Terror gangs. You know, these "Agenda of Hate" types that go around vandalising the Warm Welcoming Peace-Loving Mosques.

It was incredibly funny to see them line up implying and even directly suggesting it was marauding transhomhomusphobic gangs of nazis inspired by johnson's mad rhetoric etc etc   
But let's not have too may articles about it.

wonder if anyone ever cleared up this little minor nothing scrape

imagine if it was a tory/tommy robinson hate mob thingy

at the time it was all over the news  hahahahahha

but cower in your beds at the thought of all these right wing loons organising chaos

Mr Basu has been telling us of the huge rise in right wing terrorism.

What's it like on London Bridge today?

I watched 13 Hours Secret Soldiers last night, I can understand the beeb wanting no shrubbery near the entrance.

What % of those at the BBC celebrate Xmas ??

Its time this Rancid Mob were subscription only ,that the nation is taxed to keep it going is beyond belief in this day and age ..

saddo   use completely and utterly twisted - there is no hope - get back in your cave or mr corbyn will be sending some of his brown shirts to sort you.!!

Saddo, we don't want shrubbery with violence.

From alun's incredulous link:

On hearing the tree presented a “security risk” one member of staff questioned whether it was genuinely feared someone “could hide a bomb in it”.

We can but dream

Deliveroo!

The deliveroo logo looks like a hand giving the 'píss off' sign.

Doesn't look like the BBC team did a proper Risk Assessment on the concept of buying a tree and erecting it,money wilfully wasted. Scandalous.
