Oh the long long inherent racism about the EU about How's its the Germans took over Europe by proxy...There's always some hypocrisy (I'd forgotten this one):

You just like keane cause he prevented erling from playing for England.Can't wait for this to be yesterday's news. The BBC bosses have made arses of themselves and I've heard that Lineker is a proper diva behind the scenes (fame probably gone to his head). He's basically an overrated TV presenter who landed a plum gig IMO. Roy Keane is a far better watch.
I think Lineker is a good presenter. Knows his football. I recall when Des Lynam left for ITV and never thought they'd fill his shoes, but over 20 years later Gary is still there. Sure he has his political views and can't help but voice them. I think the fact other pundits stood down alongside him shows how much he is respected.Can't wait for this to be yesterday's news.

"Give evidence", ie lie through his teethIf you want to spend an afternoon swearing at the TV but also watch him get waterboarded by MPs
Boris Johnson to give evidence to Partygate inquiry next week
A committee of MPs is investigating whether the former PM misled Parliament over the scandal.www.bbc.co.uk
I guess it's because it was multiple victims and she thoroughly destroyed their lives, almost driving them to suicide. That's some pretty serious damage to have caused people and it also harms actual rape cases. Many rapists get off without punishment so personally I think those who try to abuse the system to falsely claim rape should also be severely punished (where it is proven beyond reasonable doubt and not merely a lack of evidence to support it, as it the case with many rape cases).Not sure if this is the best place, but seeing as governments make laws etc...
Eleanor Williams jailed over false rape claims
The judge said Eleanor Williams' claims she was trafficked by an Asian gang were "complete fiction".www.bbc.co.uk
8 1/2 years feels extreme considering the starting point for actual rape is 5 years. Don't get me wrong, she should be punished but this feels disproportionate.
