fern01 Posted February 12, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 I have just read that Sir david Clement head of the BBC has stated; And ‘sitting behind a pay wall’ where it would not be available to everyone means the BBC would no longer be ‘the place that brings the country together’ for iconic live events such as royal weddings, shows such as Strictly Come Dancing or Olympic successes. That alone would be worth getting rid of the licence fee! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head in the sand, seemingly completely unwilling to consider 'jump before you're pushed' might be the best thing for his organisation, long term. As for Greta, well who knows, the documentary might expose the media circus surrounding her, and who is really pushing her (read profiting from her endeavours). But I won't hold my breath.

Evidently it's going to show her writing one of her speeches. I think copy and paste may be a more appropriate term. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on whoever said it. How is this child ever going to have a normal life? Fifteen old boy to Thunberg.. 'Where are you at school and what do you do in your spare time?' Thunberg replies...' I go around the globe speaking to world leaders about climate change'. Fifteen year old boy... 'Goodbye'. As for the programme, it this is true this is the BBC doing what the BBC does.

If it’s just about her then fair enough, but if it turns out to be a campaign to push an agenda, that’s a totally different thing. The day we allow children to dictate policy will be a scary one indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Green Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) This is what we are talking about her words? clearly not its scripted, its a performance, she is no more than a puppet, besides her English is not that good that she could have written it herself.. Her early stuff on social media was more angry and more shouty but also more theatrical. However it earned her huge number of hits and a massive following. Hits make money.in this day and age. She is making millions out of this, don't be fooled The BBC just want to capitalise on a multi million pound phenomenon while it lasts Edited February 12, 2020 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm more scared of people like Boris or Trump who actually have some power and are driven by their childish needs to always win any debate no matter the cost to the planet/country/people outside their base. /M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
