They'll be banning Love thy Neighbour next.

They kinda have years ago. Not banned. Just not readily accessible.

I don't want to alarm you, but you might want to invest in a hard copy of your favourite Al Jolson songs.

But as @ForeverBlue92 has mentioned...while this is all going on...

Brexit no deal is going on in the background on the sly, clorinated/steroid injected food proposals being discussed in parliament

The Elite still playing the game well.

Probably why it's been pulled, for being too boring...

It was taking too much diskspace on the server.

I wonder if blazing saddles is still available?

Are the Star Wars films still on there?

It's political correctness gone MAAAAAAAAD, I tell you!

The Love Thy Neighbour scripts = Uruguayan patois.

It's a big misunderstanding.

....but not Till Death Do Us Part though...because that was poking fun at the ignorant racist...a fine line there on that argument, as Jack Smethurst's racist character was always the butt of the joke.

IIRC there were no BAME actors in that film. Oppression! Strike it from the list of viewable films.

Its why I have no time for the left these days - they are just as cosied up with the elite as the right but are happy to censor and ban whatever they deem fit in order to convince their current voter base (middle class whites and ethnic minorities) that they are socially conscious.

The working class were abandoned a long time ago by the left hence why they now vote Tory and think Nigel Farage is one of the people.

If only the SDP was brought back to life.

I love Blazing Saddles so much but you would never, ever, in a million years get it made today. There is so much to offend in there.

Which is a shame as it's amazing.

If you were a statue you'd be getting pulled down about now

so leaving the actual camp In place where over a million people Were murdered didn’t convince them the holocaust happened but leaving a statue Up with a swastika on it would ? I’ll be honest I’m struggling To follow that logic

The less evidence there is the more people won't know or believe it happened. If in a few years time a bunch of jews decided that they want all symbols of the holocaust removed which side would you come down on?
Since Sunday the UK has gone from a group of thugs ripping down a statue to authoritys deciding to take down statues and now to the removal of satire shows from online streaming services. The country is on a slippery slope to mob censorship.

My ma was a council candidate for the SDP and my two abiding memories of them are, firstly, her being convinced that Thatcher herself had tapped our phone as a result of her political activities (she still loves a bit of drama) and secondly, messing around outside one of their conferences aged about 6 and pushing my brother in a pond as he bent down to look at the fish in it.

I was hauled up before my parents, Polly Toynbee and Shirley Williams who all bought my story that he tripped. Suckers.
