It's not at all, for two reasons. Firstly, a football pundit/crisp salesman buying housing for refugees IS somewhat over the top generous and not really normal behaviour unless you can point to anyone other like Lineker whose done the same, secondly the word "perojative" doesn't exist. As shouldn't this thread anymore. Gosh Gary is so divisive.
Oh bless. Did a little typo throw you?So it is the fact that he’s spent his own money housing refugees that bothers you. It’s *always* the ones you expect.
You and Braverman deserve each other. By ‘real work’ I assume you mean a pointless taxpayer funded photo op trip to Rwanda with carefully selected media like GB News to chuck morons more red meat.
How. Sweet.

Gary will be chuffed to know that he has a few people supporting him in PH.
Meanwhile back the real World our Home Secretary gets on with the work required and promises the Rwanda policy will be up and running by this Summer. We shall see soon enough.

With her approval ratings she'll be glad of anyone.

I don't think anyone has said he bought homes for refugees have they?
He has housed a couple.
I mentioned the issue of lineker buying houses for migrants a couple of pages back, but can’t find the link to that snippet. That seemed to bring out some handwringing from people who seem to idolise the bloke, reasons best known to themselves. It may be that I mixed up in my mind that lineker offered a room to a couple of migrants a few years ago, not purchased a couple of houses.He has housed a couple.
Either way his contribution seems to be vocal rather then practical.

You do realise you've literally just written that he's housed a couple of migrants and then in the next sentence said that his contribution seems to be vocal rather than practical.
Think about that for a second

Interesting, but not surprising, to see the reaction from many to this and how the same people reacted differently to the Andrew Bridgen tweet!
From my reading of both tweets, Gary Lineker compared a subject to that of Nazi Germany, while Andrew Bridgen quoted someone who said this is the worst decision since the Holocaust.
The cognitive dissonance on display
My god you’re thick. From my reading of both tweets, Gary Lineker compared a subject to that of Nazi Germany, while Andrew Bridgen quoted someone who said this is the worst decision since the Holocaust.

You seem to have no idea about what Lineker said nor what that idiot Bridgen said.
Bridgen quoted nobody. They were his words. The ‘biggest crime against humanity since the Holocaust’.
In case you’ve forgotten.
Don’t be sidelined by the ‘ a consultant cardiologist told me’ bks.
Lineker likened the language of the government to the language of the 1930’s German government.
He did not compare policies.
‘The worst decision since the Holocaust’
Did you really write that??
NB What strange bedfellows remoaners keep? Had it been someone like Farage making the same comparison, PH would have blow up, but I'm guessing because of Steve Bray's politics, he gets a free pass!

I know I don't.
Just took a look and assuming it's the tweet of Braverman photoshopped in front of the gates to Auschwitz yes it's disgusting and completely unacceptable.

The rancid cow should stay in Rwanda and claim she deported herself. That's the best chance of her idiotic policy showing any success before the Tories are shat out at the next election.Meanwhile back the real World our Home Secretary gets on with the work required and promises the Rwanda policy will be up and running by this Summer.

I know you have a slightly fantastical perspective on literally everything, especially where that conflicts with your long held biases, but given the actual content of the posts made in this thread, this is totally ridiculous. E63eeeeee... said:
So, just so I understand your position, are you saying that because Steve Bray was right about Brexit, that means he must be right about Gary Lineker's tweet? Or is it possible for him to be right about one thing and wrong about something else?
You don't half pick some fking weird angles of attack, but you'll have to go some way to beat describing the holocaust as a bad decision. I vote you keep trying though.
Unless you can link to where I have said this your next post will contain a retraction and an apology (along with correcting your original post), and I won't take this any further.You don't half pick some fking weird angles of attack, but you'll have to go some way to beat describing the holocaust as a bad decision.
