Alan Jones Sky News Chuck bucket

He’s an Australian COVId denying shock jock so yes he does make me feel sick

Sort of Aussie version of PM without the class ?

What a strange post! I don’t watch Sky News.

Never heard of him before, just googled him. He's a sweetheart, isn't he?

Is telling a former PM of Australia that her father probably died of shame seen as incisive comment these days? Even Tony Abbot thought he'd gone too far.

Ooohhhh maybe Sky Australia will offer PM a job?

I saw him when I was in Australia, surely they haven't let him out?

No they haven’t - he’s still there playing to the masses ?

Are we to understand that you approve of him Redhead56 ?

I don’t watch Sky News either, what’s a Chuck bucket?

This will explain;

For chucking up in when a presenter makes you sick ?

Why is it a strange post and what's wrong with Sky News? It's a different perspective from the BBC. I have never seen the guy before and don't know who he is I was surprised how direct he was. Our journalists are always too busy worrying about PC to be that blunt.

It’s not what’s wrong with Sky News - it’s what’s wrong with this particular shock jock. We have enough home grown ones

As I asked ....you approve of this man ?

Why is politically correct (PC) so often used in a sneery way as though it is something bad automatically?

I know - it’s depressing isn’t it?

Ok I thought that it was a chaps name, I wondered why bucket didn’t have a capital C.
Just me being thick suzywoozie

Oh, you mean like Charles Bouquet Oopsadaisy?

Exactly callistemon.

I’m afraid it was one of those thread titles that, to me, made absolutely no sense.

Isn't this the Australian presenter who is siding with Piers Morgan's strong opinion of MM? I believe he says PM should keep his job and not be required to apologise.

Indeed it is

oopsadaisy I've heard of Alan Jones and in fact have seen him on Australian TV but had never heard of a chuck bucket.
As far as I knew it was a nickname for someone called Charles (usually in America or Australia).

He's well known here for his views, often correct. Chuck bucket is just a saying - if someone says something outrageous then you can come back with "pass me the chuck bucket" - chuck equals vomit!

his views, often correct

Like this one, where he says there is no pandemic?

Or this one, where he says denies climate change and says there is no scientific consensus?

Or maybe this, where he said that Julia Gillard's recently deceased father probably died of shame because of her?

I will not post a link about the reported facts of his relationships while a school teacher on the grounds of good taste.

Vomit indeed.
