Well I'm turning the radio off. I love 6music, but I'm not going to endorse this appalling decision.

And I finally deleted the guardian app.

Fuck them.

I hate this fucking gender bullshit. Hate hate hate it.

This is so batshit I cant help wondering if there's more to it, but I can't think what. It's so utterly insane and a terrible look for the BBC. WTF are they thinking - I worked there all my working life, have they completely lost the plot?

I rarely listen to 6Music anymore so would be nice to have some context to this - to have heard how heavily they were promoting this before it was dropped.

Regardless, it is disgraceful. It's absurd.
(Don't think the Mail does itself any favours dismissing Little Simz as a 'woke replacement' though.)

I mourn the BBC of my youth, which ‘spoke truth to power’. How weak and dishonest it has become. Like the Guardian. Where are the campaigning liberal news media that I used to trust and admire?

I have more respect now for the conservative media I used to despise.

Definitely worthy of a thread of its own. I would put in a complaint but have had cut and paste replies to previous complaints on other issues so not holding my breath
