    PROMISES

    1. We take control of our borders and stop illegal immigrants.
    2. The NHS will get an extra £350 million per week instead of the cash going to the EU.
    3. We will all be better off if we leave.

    REALITY

    1. We have taken control of our borders, and illegal immigration has increased dramatically.
    2. The NHS is in crisis and waiting lists are still increasing.
    3. We are in a cost of living crisis unheard of for decades.

    Brexit has been an abject failure, but I'm sure GB News will report the opposite.
    If we are being picky it didn't actually say the NHS would get £350 million on the side of the bus, it said let's fund the NHS it didn't say how much.

    I wasn't on about the poster on the bus that only implied it, I was on about the posters that specifically said "Let's give our NHS the £350 million the EU takes every week".

    Let me guess, you didn't see them!

    If that's the case:

    The NHS has probably spent £350 million blowing smoke up it's own ar$e on banners and signs, congratulating itself on it's 75th anniversary. What a waste of money.

    Having seen the comment I decided to watch it and couldn't see anything that was out of order tbh. What was it you thought might cause offence 59?

    The OFCOM procedure does have a hint of imbalance . If you make a complaint against the BBC , you are forced to go through the BEEBs internal complaint procedure first .

    If you complain against anyone else OFCOM go straight to address the issue, thus providing a far easier target to aim at.,

    Whether that's due an absence of internal procedures elsewhere I don't know, but it does seem a little unfair.

    I didn't watch the program in question, so I can't comment on its content.
