About 15 years ago, I tried my hand with an open-submission BBC Radio comedy current affairs series called Newsjack. Week after week, none of my jokes or sketches were chosen for broadcast, despite the fact that, whenever listening to the thing, it was clear the show’s standards of selection were unutterably dire. So, one week, I tried out a test: alongside all the jokes I thought were actually amusing, I emailed in one I thought deliberately unfunny. It got picked to be read out. I never bothered submitting ever again.
It would appear similar strangely inverted criteria of quality still prevail at the BBC Comedy Commissioning Department, to judge by the broadcast last week of a brand new sitcom called Smoggie Queens, which, as the following PR material unmistakably reveals, is about a gang of big daft transvestites.

Well, WHAT a surprise!
And I suppose all current “vaccines” are ineffective against this deadly variant, WHAT another surprise!
They are taking the P again.
Has Dr Fauci been asked to comment on this?
All Gain of Function testing must be outlawed globally with the severest punishment for anyone financing, promoting, facilitating or doing the manipulation of pathogens. There is no good reasons and only bad ones for doing such work.
More b.s. and distraction disseminated by the m.s.m. and the DS. The symptoms of Polio are caused by chemical spraying of food crops (originally DDT in the 1950s) and today, whatever the replacement choice of toxin is now in vogue. And if you look at the evidence put together by Denis Rancourt and team looking at global all cause mortality figures 2020-2023 you will see there was no virus then either. The Wuhan lab leak is another psy op; there was no health crisis, there was a financial crisis.
Makes you wonder what caused the symptoms of polio before the 1950s…
Come on, the evidence is that covid-19 escaped from Wuhan lab, where it was created by a US-funded bioweapons research programme. The global over-reaction was all the Western countries plus China implementing their biological attack plans.
“… whose US funding was cut last year…”
