    If I may butt in....
    Paul Hudson recently did a piece on 'climate change' and you could see he was doing it through gritted teeth, but yes wokery has not yet completely dominated the local news, but give it time....

    The BBC as it stands is on borrowed time and rightly so,

    Define wokery!

    I bet you cant.

    Im against the cultural intolerance of people who disagree with people who have trans issues and the debate around what is a woman. I will never refer to someone as 'they'. At the same time I think this labelling of everything as woke is ridiculous and i bet you cant even define it.

    Until you don't like it anymore then you'll go crying to the mods demanding a ban?

    There we go! fell for it hook line and sinker. I am against the trans lobby - a woman is a woman not a man dressed as one with a *@?$ between his legs. But just goes to show how you know so little.

    You are the guy who is employed who thinks brexit is easy because you still have a job. Would a woke person call you thick as fkin pigshit?

    I am not sure why you keep bothering to respond to my posts if you have nothing constructive/relevant to say.

    Absolutely not, no.

    Though my listing was tongue-in-cheek, we have actually shifted towards all of these ‘new norms’ thanks to ‘woke-ism’

    Yep, I could have gone a lot longer / further.

    If you look at the way society has shifted over the past decade or two, the trajectory is absolutely heading in the direction of those aforementioned ‘woke norms’. Whilst we may be a fair way off reaching those, there’s no doubting we’re going that way.

    It’s a projection based on the trajectory in which the data shows we are heading.

    The same concept could be used for Covid.

    Prevention is better than a cure. Not just for medical purposes.

    Complaining about people wanting to do whatever they want with their sexuality is not about preventing anything though, is it?

    Nobody I've ever met in my daily life of any political persuasion uses the word. Believe it or not I have mates who have a range of opinions and not one of them ever says it, even people I come into contact with in my area of work (and I work in hospitality so I meet a lot of people) never mention it. So where is any of that guff the real world?

    Claiming people want there to be 78 genders is bizarre and unreal, do you put acid in your cornflakes or something

    Generally speaking people don't speak about sensitive topics to strangers in areas of hospitality. Seeing as though you claim to work in the sector you probably should know that.
