I take it you're fine with the Govt wasting billions of our money on sending a couple of hundred immigrants to Rwanda and putting a few hundred more on a prison hulk as a poor substitute for a proper immigration system? It would cost far, far less to staff the Home Office with enough sufficiently trained officers to provide safe, legal routes and determine asylum cases in a timely manner, but they're not actually bothered about bringing down the numbers or improving the quality of those who.comenhere, just lazy, performative headline grabbing that satisfies the weird fetish that a lot of British people seem to have for being as nasty as possible to brown people. I can't stand Lineker and think he's grossly overpaid from money demanded with menaces from the poorest in our society, but he's right on this - aside from trashing our hard-earned internstional reputation as a bastion of fairness and human rights, Rwanda and Bibby Stockholm are appalling value for money and won't work. I wish people could see beyond their hatred of immigrants and understand this.

He must be in charge - nobody would be paid £1.35 million just to comment on a football match every week - that would be insane. He is paid this vast sum to run the BBC. He will be given a knighthood very shortly and can be "Sir Gary" in recognition of his brilliance in running the BBC. (Into the ground, I might add.)

A classic case of one rule for the many and another for the few. This has been happening since time immemorial, and always will.

The British Biased Corporation need Lineker more than Lineker needs them. He will continue to voice his lefty leanings on SM and the spineless British Biased Corporation will turn a blind eye to it, as they always do. I seem to recall when the brilliant Kenny Everett had his radio show on the British Biased Corporation he said something on air, which they didn't like. The British Biased Corporation's response - he was sacked with immediate effect. Double standards indeed, Lineker can say what he likes with impunity.

They do when you SIGN a contract with them. Also if you are in the creative sector or educational sectors, any ideas or products you come up with, are owned by the company employing you!

There are also non disclosure agreements preventing you from talking about what you do for work.
