Ep.56 - The Media, Serie A & Windrush Families

In a week where:

  1. Mesut Ozil criticises China over its treatment of Uighur Muslims. Arsenal unsurprisingly backpedal. 
  2. Taylor Swift is headlining Glastonbury
  3. Ben Stokes beats Lewis Hamilton & Dina Asher-Smith to Sports Personality of The Year.
  4. Fallon Sherrock beats Ted Evetts to become the first woman to win a World Darts Championship match.

In the 1st of two Life segments: (9:18) The General Election happened. But I don't want to thinkpiece about why it happened. Instead, I want to talk about the Media's involvement in it all.

In Sports: (27:43) Serie A takes one of the fattest L's of the year, but it seems that they are so racist, they can't even see how racist they're being! The levels of ignorance will deafen you.

In the 2nd Life segment: (39:50) The Windrush scandal stories are becoming more & more frequent. This time, the incompetence of The Home Office is affecting a family three generations deep.

Lastly, in Film/TV: (51:45) It's been a revolutionary year for Film as a whole. It begs the question, has the 2010s been the most pivotal decade ever for Film?
